Agenda Item Title
Adopt a Resolution Establishing Rules for Agendizing Council-Initiated Items on the City Council Meeting Agenda and Rescinding the Portions of Resolution #25-2011 Pertaining to the Same
Summary
At the recent City Council 90-Day Agenda Setting retreat held on August 19, 2022, the City Council discussed the manner in which council-initiated items are placed on the Council agenda. The formal process, which was adopted in 2011 by Resolution 25-2011 (Exhibit A), is cumbersome and could cause a delay in an item being heard in a timely manner.
It was the consensus of the City Council that the process set forth in Resolution 25-2011 under 1. Rules for Councilmembers Placing Items on the City Council Agenda be changed to the following
1. Quarterly Agenda Setting Planning Sessions – Regular 90-day quarterly agenda planning sessions will be scheduled, at which time Council-initiated items can be added to the agenda calendar for consideration in the upcoming quarter.
2. Upon the Request of two City Council Members to the City Manager or a Designee a. Requests shall be in writing, including the date for proposed consideration, a description of the action being requested, along with any supporting documents.
b. The request must be delivered to the City Manager no later than 5 p.m. on the Friday immediately preceding the packet creation day. If this deadline is not met, requests will be evaluated for, among other things, time-sensitivity, and number of items already agendized.
3. Upon the Request of the Mayor (or in their absence, the Vice-Mayor) and City Manager.
Adoption of the attached resolution will memorialize this process, assign time parameters for requests, as well as address the allocation of staff time to research the request.
In addition, this action will rescind those portions of Resolution 25-2011 which pertain to the same. The portions of Resolution 25-2011 that pertain to rules for utilizing staff and city attorney time to respond to Council Members’ requests for advice, information, research and/or analysis remains unchanged.
Recommended Council Action
Adopt the resolution.
Agenda Item #4.3:
Alternative Actions
1. Not adopt the resolution and continue with the process as outlined in Resolution 25- 2011.
2. Ask staff to make changes and bring back a different process.

PERTAINING TO THE SAME
WHEREAS, on July 18, 2011, the City Council adopted Resolution #25-2011 (Exhibit A) establishing rules for agendizing council-initiated items and utilizing city staff time for council requested research; and
WHEREAS, the adopted rules are burdensome and cause a delay in having items presented in a timely manner; and
WHEREAS, as there are many competing projects and priorities, a streamlined process is necessary to balance the limited staff resources that are available; and WHEREAS, it is in the best interest of the City Council to utilize staff time in an efficient manner.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, by the City Council of the City of Sonoma that Council-initiated items can be placed on the Council’s meeting agenda in the following manners:
1. Quarterly Agenda Planning Sessions – Regular 90-day quarterly agenda planning sessions will be scheduled at which time Council-initiated items can be added to the agenda calendar for consideration in the upcoming quarter.

3. Upon the Request of the Mayor (or in their absence, the Vice-Mayor) and City Manager.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the City Manager will allocate no more than three (3) hours of staff time (inclusive of City Manager and City Attorney time) to research a Council-initiated item that is brought forward under Item 2 above. However, if in the professional judgment of the City Manager, because of the complexity, potential controversy, nature and/or legal implications of the Council acting in the fashion desired by the requesting Council Members, more staff time should be and/or is required to be used in order to research and prepare the staff report, and the Mayor (or in their absence, the Vice Mayor) approves of same, then the City Manager is authorized to expend more than three (3) hours of staff time (including City Manager and/or City Attorney time) in researching and preparing the staff report for the item. Under no circumstances shall the additional staff time authorized by the Mayor (or in his/her absence, the Vice Mayor) exceed five hours. If it is determined by the City Manager that five hours is not enough time to research and prepare the staff report, the City Manager shall indicate in the staff report for the item that more than five hours of staff time is needed, and the City Council shall determine at the Council meeting at which the item is heard (i) whether the City Manager is Agenda Item #4.3:
authorized to expend more than five (5) hours of staff time (including City Manager and/or City Attorney time) in researching the item, and (ii) when, if at all, the City Council wishes to have the matter agendized for further consideration by the City Council.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that Item 1 – Rules for Councilmembers Placing Items on the City Council Agenda of Resolution # 25-2011 is hereby rescinded.

Adopt a Resolution Authorizing the City Manager to Execute a contract with EDA Land Planning to analyze the existing conditions of the City’s cemetery and make recommendations for a phased approach to development and fiscal sustainability and approve a budget adjustment in the amount of $30,000 for the study.
Summary
In July 2022, EDA Land Planning personnel met with Public Works staff for a preliminary assessment and discussion around facility planning of the City of Sonoma’s Mountain, Valley, and Veterans’ cemeteries. The purpose of this on-site work session was to determine realistic options for further developing one or more of the three cemeteries.
The mutual conclusion of this cooperative work session was that the three cemeteries all have a significant “life” or capacity for continuing to provide public burial options to the citizens of the City of Sonoma and its broader service area. This preliminary assessment is based upon the significant number of small but developable land areas in the three cemeteries, the potential for enhancing and creating new, inviting and richly historic cemetery settings, and the significant and ever-increasing preference for cremation burial.
EDA Land Planning has provided a scope to take the information gathered in this preliminary assessment and produce a report and action plan to analyze the existing conditions and identify the limitations and opportunities for new cemetery development based upon topography and drainage, soil conditions, circulation and access systems, existing facilities, existing burials, current or potential offsite land uses, significant views, and landscape features. This report will furthermore provide concept-level recommendations for land use, inventory and facilities development, and site and landscape improvements. Finally, the report will provide recommendations for cemetery sales and operations, including near-term inventory mix, promotional strategies, record keeping systems, and pricing schedules.
In FY 21/22, $30,000 was transferred from the General Fund to the Cemetery Fund for a cemetery evaluation, however the study was not completed during that fiscal year. The $30,000 cemetery evaluation should have been included in the FY 22/23 budget as the funds were not spent during the prior fiscal year, therefore a FY 22/23 budget adjustment in the amount of $30,000 to appropriate the funding for the evaluation is needed.
Recommended Council Action
It is recommended the City Council adopt a resolution authorizing the City Manager to execute a contract with the EDA Land Planning and approve a budget adjustment in the amount of $30,000 to increase the Cemetery Contract Services Account 501-61010 for the Cemetery evaluation.

1 Proposal to San Francisco Bay Water Quality Improvement Fund Proposal, 2022 North Bay Water Quality Partnership Project
1. Abstract:
This project supports a growing partnership between the City of Petaluma, City of Sonoma, the County of Napa, and Sonoma County’s Sonoma Water to implement a study of large and small-scale trash capture in municipal stormwater systems, educational outreach, and habitat restoration projects to improve water quality and aquatic/riparian habitat in these North Bay watersheds that drain to San Pablo Bay and ultimately San Francisco Bay. The project will make measurable improvements to water quality and wetland habitat through the following actions: (1) implementation of trash capture projects, (2) implementation of restoration project and management actions for 3.5 acres of vernal pool habitat for Sonoma Sunshine, an endangered species reduce sediment, stormwater pollutant load reduction and creek restoration connecting stream with floodplain, and, (3) educational outreach to diverse communities in the partners' regions in bay-draining watersheds.
2. Water quality improvement and/or wetlands restoration:
This project will be implemented in the Sonoma Creek, Petaluma River, and Napa River, all watersheds which drain to San Pablo Bay and are impacted by urban land use in the Cities of Sonoma and Petaluma.
All jurisdictions are required by the Trash Amendments to implement trash capture through infrastructure and other control methodologies, connect to their community through stormwater outreach, and manage their natural resources. Compelling natural resources deserving of trash capture, restoration, and active management. Among them: All watersheds support steelhead, unlisted Chinook salmon, and California freshwater shrimp, and all of these species are limited in their range and population by poor chemical and biological water quality, hydromodification, and lack of riparian vegetation. Sonoma Creek has TMDLs for sediment and pathogens. Petaluma River has a TMDL for urban pesticide toxicity and pathogens and is 303(d) listed for sediment. Napa River has a TMDL for sediment and pathogens. This project addresses these problems by implementing water quality and habitat improvement management and project implementation actions put forth in the guiding plans - City of Sonoma General Plan and Stormwater Master Plan, Petaluma General Plan 2025, Petaluma River Access and Enhancement Plan, and Napa Stormwater Plan.
The project implements trash capture strategies that are in alignment with the EPA Strategic Plan Goal 6, Objective 6.2 to reduce waste and environmental contamination by the implementation of full trash capture, meet the regulatory requirements of full trash capture, and work to improve and inform future trash capture implementation project outcomes regionally with our review of limitations, site prioritization, device selection, and implementation best practices. Trash has been identified as a statewide priority pollutant that adversely affects beneficial uses, including uses that support aquatic life, wildlife and public health. Storm drain infrastructure is a priority control mechanism for reducing trash pollution from reaching waterways. Under the State-Wide Trash Provisions, permittees are required to reduce the discharge of trash by 100% from the storm drain infrastructure from Priority Land Use Areas (PLUs) into receiving water by December 2030. Trash full capture devices are an effective means of capturing trash and preventing it from reaching receiving water. This project will work towards reducing trash by installing full trash capture devices in priority areas to help meet the zero-trash discharge requirement.
Agenda Item #4.6:
2 The project implements construction and land management projects that align with the EPA Strategic Plan Goal 5, Objective 5.2 to ensure clean and safe water for all communities by protecting and restoring water quality through actions such as monitoring water quality, assessing, and developing pollution reduction outreach strategies, working with partners to restore wetland and riparian areas, and prevent and reduce the discharge of pollutants, particularly fine sediment and urban pollutants.
The construction of wetland terraces and channel reconfiguration to address flooding and water quality issues through high volume treatments of stormwater pollutants before they reach Sonoma Creek, increase groundwater recharge; improve upland and riparian habitat; increase recreational and public education opportunities; and sequester carbon in improved riparian and upland habitats.
This project consists of monitoring and assessing the conditions of the wetland site and, using the scientific findings, to plan for future restoration actions, design intervention treatments such as revegetation and enhancements, and restore wetland habitats. Projects will monitor hydraulic capacity in seasonal wetlands, manage the parcel and manage the restoration of vernal pools, and increase the quality of habitat for Sonoma Sunshine on the site. Education and outreach continue to be a focal point of stormwater programs to engage the public with the objective of behavioral changes. Providing the public with an understanding of how storm drains are directly connected to creeks with no treatment can help drive behavioral changes to prevent pollution from entering the system. A robust education and outreach program is essential for water quality. Improving the education and outreach strategy has been identified as an action item for the attainment of TMDL requirements as part of the TMDL action plans.
3. Project activities:
Tasks 1-2 Water Quality Infrastructure
Task 1. Trash Capture
Task 1.1 Trash Capture Sonoma
• The City of Sonoma has identified an ideal location for installing a large-scale full trashcapture device on Broadway Boulevard/Highway 12 at Leveroni Rd. This site poses an opportunity to treat 33% PLUs. This task will allow the City of Sonoma to conduct an environmental review, develop a preliminary design, retain a construction management firm, and acquire and install a suitable large trash capture device. In addition, the City of Sonoma proposes to install smaller style trash baskets in the western side of the City to treat an additional 14% of the City’s PLU areas. The City will monitor maintenance needs of both designs.
Task 1.2 Trash Capture Petaluma
• The proposed installation location is near the northeast side of the intersection of Caulfield Lane and Hopper Street, adjacent to the SMART railroad track. The device will treat a drainage area of approximately 92 acres and cover 4.5% of the baseline trash volume in gallons. This task will allow the City of Petaluma to conduct an environmental review, develop a preliminary design, retain a construction management firm, and acquire and install a suitable large trash capture device.
Task 1.3 Trash Capture Napa County
• The County of Napa has identified several potential installation locations within the Napa Valley Business park in unincorporated Napa County. This area is primarily industrial and contains approximately 90% of the PLUs within unincorporated Napa Agenda Item #4.6:
3 County. The installation of 10 small trash capture devices is estimated to treat approximately 10% PLUs. This task will allow the County of Napa to manage a project that includes development of a preliminary design, acquiring and installation of suitable small trash capture devices as well as annual maintenance.
Task 1.4 Maintenance Tracking and Output Study
• Once the devices are installed, each jurisdiction will independently conduct maintenance and track activities. After a full year of maintenance has been completed, data will be synthesized collectively between agencies and summarized in a report. The report will be made available to partners and other jurisdictions to assist with making informed decisions for the selection of full trash capture devices for compliance.
Task 2. Habitat Restoration: Water Quality improvement of wetland and edge habitat features:
Task 2.1 St. Francis Preserve
The City of Sonoma has identified St. Francis Preserve wetland project as a priority to create conditions conducive to protect and augment wetland function and bring Sonoma Sunshine, an endangered native species, back to the wetland habitat, and to improve water quality and seasonal wetland habitat in the stormwater system as part of a multi-benefit wetland management and implementation project.
2.1.1 St Francis Preserve Management.
• The St. Francis Wetland Restoration project is composed of active management implementation to improve vernal pool habitat for Sonoma Sunshine (Blennosperma bakeri), significant ecological monitoring to inform restoration goals, and stormwater quality testing on the eastern boundary. Management implementation includes targeted invasive species removal of Harding Grass and invasive annual grasses, monitoring of wetland indicators and seasonal inundation, and management planning with regional stakeholders, in partnership with the Laguna Foundation, a leader in vernal pool restoration in Sonoma Valley. Monitoring the wetland condition, the status of the Sonoma Sunshine population, and retained standing water and groundwater levels will be accomplished through in situ monitoring devices and fieldwork. The draft management plan will guide management actions going forward, with support from consulting biologists and jurisdictional partners in the form of the St. Francis Wetland Preserve Working Group. Partnership with regional leaders will allow the project to follow best management practices, assess site management outcomes, and collectively adapt our practices to agreed-upon long-term management goals.
The tasks needed to complete this project are monitoring surveys for wetland indicators and their condition, stormwater monitoring, assessment and evaluation, management planning, coalition building, environmental documentation, permitting, and project administration.
Task 2.1.2 St Francis Open Channel Water Quality Testing and Treatment Agenda Item #4.6:
4 • The City of Sonoma proposes diverting stormwater flows through a pilot bioretention treatment that increases water quality, habitat goals for forage and shelter for bird species, and minor flood retention and ground water recharge.
Water Quality Improvement at St. Francis Wetland - Stormwater Treatment: In addition to habitat improvement (Task 2.1.1), St Francis meets Action 12 of the CCMPs with a significant bioremediation infrastructure design project to improve water quality in the City's stormwater system. Located on the easternmost side of the St. Francis parcel, this unlined stormwater culvert feature of our system drains 10.5 acres of singlefamily homes and currently outfalls, untreated, 2,665-ft south at 38.2721 N, -122.4608 W into Fryer Creek, travel via Napa Slough, and out to San Pablo Bay. Within a 0.35- acre area, current conditions provide stormwater transport, flowing into a scoured pool dominated by willow and blackberry, and outflowing through a 48” pipe to join the storm drain system. Proposed conditions include an outfall directed by an engineered weir into cascading detention basins for wetland treatment with engineered soil matrix and wetland species pallet to treat stormwater pollutants common to SFR draining water. Downstream of the flood detention area is a pool where water seeps into the groundwater. Flows above 5.8 cfs enter the 48” storm drain and rejoin the main stem of the storm drain network at Broadway and Leveroni Road. Project increases treatment acreage to 0.5 acres, creating diverse stormwater treatment through a cascading system of surface treatment basins with an engineered soil matrix and native wetland species. Multiple analyses will be completed to inform restoration design to 65% for retention and treatment of floodwaters without the need for significant vector control in the flood detention area, including an analysis of current stormwater volume transport under varying storm and climate conditions. Water quality monitoring will be conducted at this outfall and in various outfalls throughout the system to better characterize the run-off being captured and treated in this detention area.
Task 2.2 Corona Creek
• The Corona Creek Restoration project restores and maintains Corona Creek from Sonoma Mountain Parkway to Kenilworth Junior High at Riesling Road. This project includes specific site treatments within the creek corridor and the creek frontage along upland areas, removing trash, debris and invasive non-native plant species, improving native species diversity, and restoring a more natural creek configuration. This project consists of construction of flood terraces to reduce out-of-bank flooding and address water quality issues, increase groundwater recharge; improve upland and riparian habitat; increase educational and recreational opportunities for the neighboring residential community, an elementary school one block away and a junior high school located less than one block from the upstream edge of the proposed project. Last, the project would also sequester carbon in improved riparian and upland habitats. The goals of this project are to increase flood protection, improve stormwater management, improve water quality, enhance the habitat, and increase recreational and educational opportunities for young school students and the community. The design and analysis of the project will provide for input from the schools and residents toward completing design, improve habitat connectivity, enhance habitat diversity, increasing opportunities to wildlife for cover, nesting, foraging and migratory functions, and filter pollutants from terrestrial runoff and improve water quality.
Agenda Item #4.6:
5 The tasks needed to complete this project are direct project administration, riparian surveys, assessment and evaluation, easements, planning, design, engineering, surface water model run, environmental documentation and permitting.
Task 3. Water Quality Outreach
Task 3.1 Streets to Creeks
• Streets to Creeks is a multi-media outreach campaign designed to educate the general population on stormwater quality protection. The campaign focuses on educating the public that activities conducted on land can impact our creek system and actions that can be taken to prevent stormwater pollution. The campaign was originally developed by the City of Santa Rosa and deployed throughout the Russian River watershed, providing messaging on actions to take to reduce pollution from entering the storm drain and the importance of protecting water quality. This task will bring the campaign into the North Bay watersheds.
The outreach strategy includes targeted messaging on pollution prevention techniques to residents, children and upstream agricultural activities that adversely affect stormwater quality. For residential outreach that campaign includes stormwater safe practices for yard/landscape cuttings, pet waste, vehicle maintenance, power washing, and other relevant topics. The children’s campaign provides outreach materials including an activity booklet, creek protector patches, inclusion of creek health into school science curriculum, clean-up and planting activities. Upstream outreach includes factsheets on stormwater safe practices for a variety of rural residential and agricultural land uses. The campaign has an array of options for delivering messaging: video, audio, and digital adds; mail inserts; posters; factsheets; promotional items such as t-shirts and pet bag dispensers; and Creek Protector children’s activities. Delivery of the campaign be directed through many effective media including a website; social media; radio ads, targeted ads on various digital platforms such as Instagram, or local news platforms.
This task will include a collaborative approach for outreach, working with a local marketing firm to help deliver the campaign and track project metrics. The specific outreach strategy will be developed using partnership input from year-to-year, using a set annual budget. The annual campaign will be adaptively managed, building on each subsequent year using data and information from previous years to drive effectiveness of future years. The development of the program will include a mechanism to track actionable items as part of the campaign. The budget will include costs to administer the program.
Task 4. Project management, contracting, reporting, and invoicing, as required by EPA. • Project partners will divide management responsibilities to take advantage of differing areas of expertise. The City of Sonoma will institute management controls to assure that appropriate accounting mechanisms are in place, attend EPA’s project management training with a member of Petaluma’s Public Works Department, and assure that submittals to EPA meet the requirements. The City of Sonoma will coordinate with partners via regular monthly meetings, typically virtually to reduce costs, to assure adherence to the timeline, and make adjustments as necessary.
Agenda Item #4.6:
6 4. Climate Change Resiliency:
Downscaled climate projections show southern Sonoma County becoming more arid, with more extreme storms and droughts. Protecting water quality and slowing runoff can buffer human and natural communities against climate change impacts by increasing groundwater recharge, reducing flooding, and extending late-summer streamflow. Slowing runoff also reduces the emissions associated with importing water by replenishing local groundwater supplies. These projects will contribute to climate response by creating green spaces and restoring habitats adjacent to the Sonoma Creek and Petaluma River.
5. Timeframe:
All activities will take place within four years. Environmental results will begin to accrue during winter 2026 through EPA-funded public engagement on trash capture, stormwater water quality improvement through trash capture, treatment, public outreach, and habitat restoration. Task 1 will commence in 2022/23 with final design, devices selection, and permitting. Construction and installation of the chosen devices will occur by the end of 2024, with 2025 and 2026 used to collect and analysis maintenance data. The installation of trash capture devices and restoration of habitat will provide benefits that continue for decades after project completion.
Task 2.1 will demonstrate significant steps within Year-1 to meet restoration goals by the draft of the management plan, and the formation of the St. Francis Wetland Preserve Working Group (SFWPWG), composed of members from programmatic partners, including the Laguna Foundation, Sonoma Ecology Center, California Department of Fish and Wildlife, and the City of Sonoma. Initial monitoring data will be reported in the fall for groundwater, standing water depths in original and constructed vernal pool features, botanical survey, and soil analysis.
Beneficial disturbance of invasive species will be initiated with mowing and targeted thatch removal activities initiated by summer 2023. In subsequent years (2-4), the monitoring plan may be augmented or granted greater specificity, and the management plan goals may be revised, based on previous-year results. By the end of the project, the management plan will be revised based on the total data collection and monitoring results. The SFWPWG will meet to finalize and approve the management plan and an ongoing maintenance plan with 5-year and 10-year goals.
The efforts to restore St. Francis Wetland Preserve will result in habitat improvement benefits during the period of this grant and proceeding into the foreseeable future Task 2.1 will lead to sustained restoration management with habitat improvements, stormwater benefits, and a collective capacity to protect vernal pool habitats.
6. CCMP Objectives and Actions:
Task 1.1, 1.2, and 1.3 (Gray to Green infrastructure tasks) will help achieve the CCMP Objective I by reducing contaminants entering the estuarine system and improving water quality. Tasks 1.1-
1.3 will implement Action 19 and Action 23. To employ Action 19 solutions, tasks will manage stormwater with low impact development and green stormwater infrastructure to reduce trash Agenda Item #4.6:
7 and marine debris in the Estuary. To address Action 23, tasks will support regional municipalities and agencies in attaining trash reduction activities that remove contaminants by providing guiding research and recommendations.
Tasks 1.4 meets CCMP Objective L by presenting pertinent information about trash capture installation, maintenance, increasing regional governance and empowering other jurisdictions in their infrastructure and management transitions to full compliance with the Trash amendments by either Track 1 or Track 2 trash capture methods. The partnered approach will allow for tracking projects that result in a white paper and presentation about the collective insights gained with these initial Trash Capture projects that seek to meet the requirements including project limitations, installation requirements, proper device sizing, site discussions, and comparisons between the three implementation sites, and components that eased the transition including stakeholder O&M engagement and public engagement.
Task 2.1.1 and 2.1.2 will increase habitat quality in the vernal pool acreage and water treatment to remove pollutants from stormwater. These tasks will help achieve the CCMP A, B, and F and will implement Action 8 for wetland monitoring, Action 3 adaptation planning to bring naturebased solutions into land management within the first year of the project and Action 4, adaptation implementation, and action 13 – protecting, restoring and reducing thatching invasive species in vernal pool resources through consistent annual management actions and culminating in a reduced maintenance requirement within the first 10 years. Tracking will take the form of annual monitoring surveys and management actions, and the jurisdictions adding each project to their respective maintenance routines or contractual management actions with leaders in restoration.
Design and Construction of wetlands to treat stormwater runoff will achieve the CCMP Objectives C and H by researching and applying the best science to the design of the bioretention features within a treatment zone along the stormwater culvert, improving freshwater flow patterns, quantity and timing for the support of natural resources, and meeting the goals of living resources and managing wetland as in Action 12 to maximize habitat benefits.

8. Output and Outcome Metrics:
Task 1.1, 1.2, and 1.3 (Gray to Green infrastructure tasks) installation of large and small trash devices in the Cities of Sonoma and Petaluma, and County of Napa. The project improves water quality in Sonoma Petaluma and Napa Creeks and their tributaries by capturing 100% of the trash greater than 5 millimeters in the stormwater system that drains to the south through the infrastructure at targeted intersections. This section of the storm drain system to be treated represents significant treatment opportunities for the jurisdictions involved. In Sonoma, 33.7% of the Priority Land Uses (PLUs) and
18.5% of the Non-PLUs within the City’s jurisdiction are treated by the planned trash capture project at Leveroni Rd and Broadway Blvd. In Petaluma, ___. In Napa ____. Each trash capture project will produce a feasibility study, cost analysis for all budgeted aspects of installation, and a summary of the limitations, tracked decisions leading to device choice, and tabulated insights relevant to trash capture project implementation.
Task 1.4, The Maintenance Tracking and Output Study, will produce a recommendation document and public presentation for informing future infrastructure transitions for regional permitees as they work to meet the 100% trash capture requirements of the Trash Capture amendments and our future stormwater permits. Tabulated data and insights from Trash Capture projects from initiation to installation in Tasks 1.1.1-1.1.3 will be compiled in the study. Ongoing learnings will create a database of trash capture limitations, infrastructure requirements, and lessons learned that will inform projects for the next 5 – 20 years.
Task 2.1, Water Quality – Sonoma Restoration Project, creates up to .35 acres of engineered seasonal wetlands for the purpose of stormwater treatment. Engineered soils and wetland plants will treat stormwater in cascading pools every storm event and retain significant amounts of stormwater that will reduce peak runoff and reroute it to groundwater recharge and subsurface flow. This project is informed by the evaluation and monitoring of stormwater pollutant loads and other water quality indicators, and volume of water under 1-year storm conditions and changing climate conditions. This project increases habitat diversity and provides diverse cover for species use of the 5-acre parcel. The project borders a public path and provides an opportunity for the public to see the project process local stormwater. With careful assessment, planning, and implementation through this grant, we can build towards accomplishing this goal in 5-10 years.
Proposed conditions include: outfall directed by an engineered weir into cascading detention basics for wetland treatment with engineered soil matrix and wetland species pallet to treat stormwater pollutants common to stormwater. After the flood detention area is a pool where water seeps into the Agenda Item #4.6:
12 groundwater. Flows above 5.8 cfs enter the 60” storm drain and rejoin the main stem of the storm drain network at Broadway and Leveroni Road. We'd like to increase treatment acreage to .5 acres, creating diverse stormwater treatment through a cascading system of surface treatment basins with an engineered soil matrix and native wetland species. Multiple analyses will be completed to inform restoration design to 65% for retention and treatment of floodwaters without the need for significant vector control in the flood detention area, including an analysis of current stormwater volume transport under varying storm and climate conditions,
Task 2.1 The restoration of St. Francis Wetland Preserve begins with enacting the Section 7 management actions for the benefit and success of the Sonoma Sunshine endangered species, including invasive species management and targeted thatching species reduction. Partnership Stakeholder Groups and regional capacity building will enable all regulatory and regional leaders to be informed of plan scope and actions, seek guidance, and cooperatively manage natural resources. This project prioritizes increasing regional leadership in vernal pool management and restoration, and nonprofits co-leading the effort with the City of Sonoma to: lead a working group of agencies and regional stakeholders; evaluate the management actions using the best available science; and provide scientific monitoring and environmental services through 1. Hydrological analysis, gaining insight into water retention capacity of the depressional wetland features designed for Sonoma sunshine, analysis of precipitation patterns, and monitoring ground water levels throughout the lifecycle of the project; 2. Soil Survey, understanding conditions relevant to water retention including character of Impervious layer and percolation rates; and 3. Botanical surveys and wetland delineation characterizing site and documenting species' present and areal cover; and 4. Permitting for regulatory compliance for site management, review of environmental mitigative actions, and permissions. The monitoring and analyses will be used to update the management plan for the site, using the Section 7 report and other available documentation on the history of this site as a baseline. Research from this project will inform ongoing site management actions, adaptive management practices, and restoration design and implementation. With careful assessment, planning, and implementation through this grant we can build towards accomplishing this goal in 5-10 years.
Task 2.2 Petaluma Corona Creek Restoration will increase flood protection, improve stormwater management, improve water quality, revegetate and enhance the habitat, and increase stewardship.
The project plans to achieve these goals by channel recontouring and construction of flood terraces to reduce peak flows and velocities, providing improved habitat for birds and riparian mammals and other species, reducing sediment and debris within the creek corridor, and increasing recreational and educational opportunities. Successful implementation of the goals will result in a reduction of peak flow volumes and velocity during storm events, reduction of sediment load within creek blockages at the downstream edge of the project, increase of species living within and traversing the improved riparian corridor, and an increase of sense of ownership the creek corridor. Within the first five years, the project aims to reduce sediment and debris within the creek corridor and increase recreational and educational opportunities through community outreach and engagement. The project seeks to channel recontouring and construction of flood terraces to reduce peak flows and velocities in the long term.
Task 3.1 Stormwater Outreach
Agenda Item #4.6:
13 Education and outreach outputs are based on deliverables of the campaign including multi-media outputs and promotion of the Creek Protector campaign. Short-term outcomes include the number of people to receive targeted messaging. This is an estimated value anticipated over the four years of the campaign. Long-term outcomes include the reduction in pollution through behavioral changes including decrease littering, increase in proper pet waste management, increase in proper disposal of waste products.

Agenda Item Title
Discussion and Possible Action to Advise the City Council to Approve the Replacement of Waste Receptacles in the Plaza Park
Summary
The CSEC set out to research and recommend an improved design for replacing the existing waste receptacles in the Plaza Park in its Workplan for Fiscal Year 2018-19. Specifically, Workplan Task WM-4 outlined the CSEC’s plan to coordinate with City staff, the Sonoma County Waste Management Agency, and Sonoma Garbage Collectors to evaluate designs for new waste receptacles in the Plaza Park that would have better signage, aesthetics, serviceability, and encourage better waste sorting.
After soliciting input from Sonoma County Waste Management Agency and Sonoma Garbage Collectors, City staff engaged a vendor capable of manufacturing custom waste receptacles and worked with them to design a three-bay, side-loading waste receptacle with the following features:
• Three rollaway carts separate from the enclosure during collection operations to minimize the need for heavy lifting and the potential for associated injuries; • Restricted openings for recyclables to promote better sorting and reduce contamination of the recycling stream with trash;
• Augmented trash capacity to reduce overflows and litter near receptacles during heavy use as well as to offset increases in trash volume associated with the exclusion of many items from the recycling stream (e.g. contaminated food containers, pizza boxes, cake boxes, and plastic utensils and cutlery);
• High-density polyethylene (HDPE) and stainless-steel materials, which are durable, corrosion-resistant, and do not require painting to preserve their appearance, reducing maintenance requirements and promoting cleanliness; and • A curved roof on each enclosure to discourage climbing, sitting, standing, or playing on the enclosures as well as placement of trash items on top of the receptacle.
City staff presented this design to and reviewed proposed installation locations with the CSEC AdHoc Subcommittee for this task on February 25 th, 2019. The CSEC Ad Hoc Subcommittee and City
staff agreed that the design presented achieved the stated goals of Task WM-4. City staff subsequently worked towards a final design with input from the manufacturer resulting in two notable changes:
• Doors on the front of each of the three bays in the receptacles were modified to reduce their weight and extend the life of the hinges.
• The curved roof design was modified after analysis by the manufacturer revealed that the design exceeded the maximum dimensions of their tooling. A flat and sloped roof panel was incorporated into the final design.
City staff provided the revised final design to the Ad-Hoc Subcommittee on April 30th via email for final review prior to presentation to the full CSEC and received no additional comments or feedback.
Agenda Item #4.7:
The final design materials have been attached to this Agenda Item Summary.
Proposed installation locations for the new receptacles are generally at or near the existing locations of trash receptacles in the Plaza with a notable exception for the existing waste receptacles immediately to the west of the General Vallejo monument located along the north-central perimeter of the Plaza. These receptacles would be removed and replaced with two new receptacles along paved pathways providing ingress for pedestrian traffic to the northwest and northeast quadrants of the Plaza that are further from the General Vallejo Monument.
The new receptacles must be installed on a firm and level surface to retain their structural integrity and reduce the hazard of containers tipping. New concrete pads would support each structure.
Concrete pads would connect with existing paved pedestrian pathways and would extend for 2 inches beyond the footprint of each new receptacle.
During large special events in the Plaza, it is anticipated that the large blue bins currently used as recycling containers would be available to collect more recyclables. These bins will require sorting post event.
Recommended Commission Action
It is recommended that the CSEC advise the City Council to approve the replacement of 24 singlestream recycling collection containers and 51 trash containers at 26 locations in the Plaza with 27 beverage-container recycling containers and 54 trash containers at 27 locations in the Plaza consistent with the design documents for the 2019 Plaza Waste Collection Container Replacement Program attached to this Agenda Item Summary.
Alternative Actions
Request additional information from the CSEC Ad Hoc Subcommittee and City staff.

Agenda Item Title
Adopt a Resolution Approving Compensation Adjustments for the Non-Represented Confidential Personnel and Executive/At-Will, Management and Administrative Personnel, and Implementing the Adjusted Salaries and Wages of the Non-Represented Confidential Personnel and Executive/At-Will, Management and Administrative Personnel Summary
The City Council is being asked to approve adjustments to the compensation program for the Non-Represented Confidential Personnel and Executive/At-Will, Management and Administrative Personnel. There are 12 budgeted full-time employees, and 2 part-time employees within in the Executive/At-Will, Management and Administrative Personnel group.
The budgeted full-time Administrative Services Director is currently vacant and is being held vacant while a new City Manager is recruited. An evaluation of the Executive/At-Will management structure is pending review.
The Non-Represented Confidential Personnel and Executive/At-Will, Management and Administrative Personnel does not include the Interim City Manager. The Interim City Manager has a separate contract which was approved by the City Council on May 18, 2022.
No adjustments to the previously approved salary and benefits that were approved with that contract are being requested.
The City has one recognized union (or bargaining unit), the Service Employees International Union Local 1021 (SEIU), that represents the majority of the City’s employees. As required by State law, the City engages in the meet and confer process with SEIU to establish the terms and conditions of employment for their members. These terms and conditions are ultimately set forth in a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) between the parties. In addition, there is an employee group which is not unionized, the Non-Represented Confidential Personnel and Executive, Management and Administrative Personnel, for which the terms and conditions of employment are established by City Council resolution rather than a negotiated MOU.
At the August 17, 2022 City Council meeting Council adopted a resolution approving a tentative agreement with the members of SEIU 1021 for the period of July 1, 2022, through June 30, 2025 and implemented the adjusted salaries and benefits of those employees. The adopted resolution implemented the following changes to salaries and benefits for members of SEIU:
❖ Effective the first full pay period following ratification of the MOU, (August 17, 2022), the salary schedule will be improved by eight percent (8.0% ). ❖ Effective the first pay period following July 1, 2023, and the fist pay period following July 1, 2024, the salary schedule shall be adjusted by the lesser of the following, not to be less than two percent (2%) or to exceed two-point five percent (2.5%) or the City's revenue change as measured by revenue receipts on June 30th.
❖ Should the City's Transient Occupancy Tax (TOT) revenue from the period of March to March come in 2% below, the same period in the preceding year, the parties will meet to Agenda Item #4.9:
discuss ·whether the planned modifications to the salary schedule are appropriate. These negotiations shall stay the increase referenced in section l .b., above, and will commence not later than June.
❖ During the term of the contract, the City will conduct a total compensation study. Should the median total compensation be more than five percent (5%) below comparable cities, the Parties shall meet to negotiate.
❖ Health Insurances:
➢ Effective the first full pay period following August 17, 2017, the City's maximum contribution toward benefits premiums is as follows:
▪ $708 Employee Only
▪ $1,415 Employee + 1
▪ $2,002 Employee + 2 or more
▪ Each July 1 thereafter, the Parties shall cost share increases in premiums based upon the Kaiser plan, not to exceed a six percent (6%) increase over the prior year. The City shall cover two-thirds (2/3) and the unit member will cover one-third (1/3) of the premium increase. The City's maximum contribution increase shall not exceed four percent (4%) in any one year, All premium increases in excess of six percent (6%) shall be borne by the unit member.
This agenda item is requesting the City Council approve the same salary and benefit changes for the Non-represented Executive/At-Will, Management and Administrative Personnel that were negotiated and adopted for SEIU Local 1021 on August 17, 2022. This agenda item is also requesting that the salary and benefit changes including medical benefits, for the Nonrepresented Executive/At-Will, Management and Administrative Personnel be retroactive to the first full pay period following August 17, 2022.
Employment and Compensation Programs
The proposed changes to the compensation program for the Non-represented Executive/AtWill, Management and Administrative Personnel are the same as was negotiated by SEIU and are noted below:
❖ Three-year term commencing July 1, 2022;
❖ Cost of Living adjustment of eight percent (8.0%) effective the first full pay period following August 17, 2022;
❖ Effective the first pay period following July 1, 2023, and the first pay period following July 1, 2024, the salary schedule shall be adjusted by the lesser of the following, not to be less than two percent (2%) or to exceed two-point five percent (2.5%); ❖ The Consumer Price Index (CPI-U) for the West Region (as found on the U.S. Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics web site) for March to March of the previous year; or ❖ The City’s revenue change as measured by revenue receipts on June 30th; ❖ An increase in the City’s contribution to health care benefits for qualifying members as effective the first full pay period following August 17, 2022, and an additional increase effective the first full pay period following July 1, 2023 and an additional increase effective the first full period following July 1, 2024;
The salary adjustments for both SEIU and the Non-Represented Confidential Personnel and Executive/At-Will, Management and Administrative Personnel are reflected in the revised Salary Schedule that is attached as Exhibit A. Following adoption of theses compensation adjustments, the full employment terms, and conditions for the Non-Represented Confidential Personnel and Executive/At-Will, Management and Administrative Personnel will be presented in a comprehensive resolution for adoption at a future meeting.
Agenda Item #4.9:

Discussion, Consideration, and Possibly Action to Provide Direction to Staff to Provide Comments to Permit Sonoma (County of Sonoma) Regarding the Recently Released Public Review Draft Specific Plan (SP) and Draft Environmental Impact Report (DEIR) for the Sonoma Developmental Center (SDC) Project
Summary
Permit Sonoma (County of Sonoma) is seeking public comment on the draft Environmental Impact Report (DEIR) which was released for 45 days from Aug. 10 until Sept. 26, 2022, for the Sonoma Developmental Center.
The Sonoma Developmental Center is located on a 945-acre site approximately 6 miles north of the City. It consists of a 180-acre developed campus and approximately 765 acres of agriculture, recreation and ecologically valuable natural areas adjacent to the Sonoma Valley Regional Park and the Jack London State Historic park.
The DEIR (see link below) is available for public review at Permit Sonoma at 2550 Ventura Ave., Santa Rosa, CA 95403, and comments can be made by the public (and public agencies) via email.
The draft Specific Plan for the project is also available for public review.
City staff has reviewed the draft Specific Plan (198 pages – see link below) but at the time of the preparation of this staff report has not had the opportunity to complete its review of the DEIR (789 pages). Comments on the draft Specific Plan are attached and center mostly on supporting policies relating to the provision of affordable housing.
Staff will provide oral comments on the DEIR at the meeting.
The City Council may choose to provide direction to staff to provide comments to Permit Sonoma on both the draft Specific Plan and DEIR prior to the close of the comment period on September 26th, 2022.
The Draft Specific Plan and Draft EIR can be accessed below:

Agenda Item #6.1:
Staff comments on the draft Specific Plan for the Sonoma Developmental Center (City Council meeting September 12, 2022)
1) “Connector” from the core campus to Highway 12 (for connectivity and emergency evacuation options).
Comment: There are two alignments shown in the Specific Plan from the campus to Highway 12 (page 3-2 and Figure 3.1-1). Both alignments will likely place additional traffic along Highway 12 which in turn will impact the City of Sonoma with or without an emergency evacuation event.
2) All required Inclusionary Housing units are to be built on-site per the Specific Plan
Comment: Under current County Code Section 26-89-04, developers are required to build 20 percent income-restricted units for ownership projects and 15% percent for rental projects. Developers and home builders also have an option under the county code to pay in lieu fees to the County fund for affordable housing instead of building the restricted units at the project site.
Under this Specific Plan, project sponsors at the site will be required to provide inclusionary required income-restricted units at 25 percent for both rental and ownership projects, and will be required to build all income-restricted units within the SDC campus in perpetuity. This is a good policy (Policy 4-14 on page 4-25) and mirrors the City’s commitment to providing inclusionary housing in the Valley.
The Specific Plan also allows for dedication of land and an in-lieu fee so long as the land is within the Specific Plan area. (See Policy 4-15, page 4-25) 3) The Specific Plan states that “Middle Income housing” will make up 50 percent of the total market rate housing at the site. These homes will be accessible for Sonoma County’s middle income workforce, such as teachers and firefighters, to help keep these professionals from being priced out of Sonoma Valley”.
Comment: The City supports Goal 4-F that states: “Promote “missing middle income” housing to support the needs of the workforce that do not meet the requirements for income-restricted affordable housing.” However, Policy 4-17 is a permissive policy and does not require this to happen. The aforementioned policy should be amended to state the following: “At least 50 percent of the market rate housing should shall be designated as “missing middle housing,” intended for sale or rental to individuals or families making between 121 and 160 percent of Sonoma County’s Area Median Income (AMI) by including: small lot sizes; smaller, efficient dwelling sizes; a mix of duplex, triplex, fourplex, townhomes, and cottage clusters; a range of studio through three- or four-bedroom units; and simple but high-quality materials in construction and finishes”.
Agenda Item #6.1:
4) The Specific Plan contains a Policy (No. 4-8 on page 4-23) that the City supports which provides for the designation of “at least five parcels to build homes for persons with developmental disabilities, prioritizing parcels closer to open space areas”.
Comment: Staff is unaware of how this policy will be implemented as no sites are identified within the land plan for this type of deed restricted development to happen.
5) The 2021-2022 Sonoma County Civil Grand Jury provided the following two recommendations regarding the Sonoma Developmental Center:
“R1. By September 30, 2022, Permit Sonoma, Sonoma Water, the Valley of the Moon Water District, and the City of Sonoma Water Department meet to ensure that in any SDC Specific Plan, the water resources of the site are utilized for any future development with limited reliance on water from the Sonoma Aqueduct.
R2. By September 30, 2022, Permit Sonoma, Sonoma Water, the Valley of the Moon Water District, and the City of Sonoma Water Department meet to ensure that a SDC Specific Plan includes an outline for the sharing of water resources of the site during emergencies.” Comment: Staff has not located within the Specific Plan any discussion about limiting reliance on water for the development of the property from the Sonoma Viaduct. Also, staff does not see any discussion to provide an outline for the sharing of water resources of the site during emergencies. 6) A few typos:
a) Page 4-28 typos - “Appendix B” NOT “Appendix A. (See ”Policies 4-29, 4-30 and 4-31).
b) Municipal code typo p.7-6. Should be County Code? Delete word “municipal”.

Agenda Item Title
Discussion, Consideration, and Possible Action to Adopt a Resolution Disbanding the Homeless Task Force and Establishing an Ad Hoc Advisory Subcommittee on Homelessness and Appoint Two Council Members to the Subcommittee
Summary
On Wednesday, June 15, 2022, the Sonoma City Council heard a report from Andrew Hening, the City’s contract consultant on community members experiencing homelessness, directed the City Manager to begin the process to create a Homeless Task Force and appointed Vice-Mayor Barnett and Councilmember Agrimonti to the Task Force. The Task Force was also to be comprised of City staff, local stakeholders, and County representatives.
On Wednesday, June 15, 2022, the Sonoma City Council heard a report from Andrew Hening, the City’s contract consultant on community members experiencing homelessness, directed the City Manager to begin the process to create a Homeless Task Force and appointed Vice-Mayor Barnett and Councilmember Agrimonti to the Task Force. The Task Force was also to be comprised of City staff, local stakeholders, and County representatives.
Following that meeting, the City Attorney advised that any committee, commission, board, or body including a task force, that is created by “formal action” of the council is subject to the Brown Act, except an ad hoc committee comprised solely of 2 members of the Council.
Staff is recommending the Homelessness Task Force as originally created be disbanded and instead a Homelessness Ad Hoc Advisory Subcommittee comprised of the original Council appointees be established instead. The Ad Hoc Advisory Subcommittee will decide who they invite to help them do the work of the committee, but the invitees will not be voting members of the Ad Hoc Subcommittee.
This subcommittee will be charged with convening and facilitating collaboration among local providers and partners who are working with community members experiencing homelessness, food insecurity, and/or income related issues; representing Sonoma Valley's interests to the rest of the County; and creating a workplan so that County and Sonoma Valley service providers can align resources and services. In addition, the Ad Hoc Committee work plan will need to include steps to establish a shared database of users (HMIS system) to ensure adequate services and progress towards coordinated entry, case management, and housing needs are being met. The subcommittee shall have such support from the City Attorney and other City staff as the City Manager shall direct. The subcommittee will provide recommendations to the City Council from time to time as needed. Upon provision of its final recommendation to the City Council, the subcommittee shall automatically be disestablished.
As a temporary, ad hoc advisory committee comprised of less than a quorum of the City Council, the Homelessness Ad Hoc Subcommittee may, but need not, comply with the Brown Act as authorized by Government Code section 54952, subdivision (b).
