Title: Community Development Block Grant CV1 Subrecipient Agreement Amendment 2 for Catalyst Family Inc.
Location: Citywide
Responsible Staff Member: Lydia Zuniga, Housing Program Coordinator(530) 542-7417 Background: On August 11, 2020, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 2020-072 Coronavirus Response Grant. The Resolution authorized staff to apply for a Grant Application in the amount of $138,951 with the State Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) for the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Coronavirus Response Round 1 (CV1) for Childcare Services. On May 3, 2021, staff received the Award Notification Letter in the amount of $138,950 with a performance period of 5/6/2021 to 5/6/2022. The City has subsequently received approval from HCD to extend the Standard Agreement term until 6/23/2023.
During the City Council meeting of September 7, 2021, the Council approved Subrecipient Agreements with the Boys and Girls Club of Lake Tahoe and Catalyst Family Inc. The Boys and Girls Club of Lake Tahoe agreement included an activity delivery budget of $42,775 and Catalyst Family Inc., activity delivery budget was $96,750. An amendment to the Subrecipient Agreement with Catalyst Family Inc to extend the term to end on November 6, 2022, was executed on April 27, 2022.
Issue and Discussion: The Boys and Girls Club of Lake Tahoe has been reimbursed $32,420.64 for salaries, cleaning supplies, safety equipment, tents, and extra payroll costs associated with Coronavirus response. Staff was informed by the Boys and Girls Club of Lake Tahoe that the agency would not be spending the remaining grant funded amount.
Catalyst Family, Inc., has not been able to proceed with reimbursements for the originally proposed staffing and training activities due to potential duplication of benefit from other funds. Catalyst Family, Inc has requested to amend the scope of work and has expressed interest in pursuing the remaining funds unused by the Boys and Girls Club. Catalyst Family Inc. created the Pathways to Education Fund, which provides educational assistance to their staff. If the Subrecipient Agreement amendment is approved, Catalyst Family Inc., would provide educational assistance to their staff, continue to do outreach and market the different services they offer to the community, the new scope of work will also include COVID 19 prevention training for their staff and grant management payroll cost. The amended agreement would include a new budget of $106,176 and a term ending May 1, 2023.
The Development Services Department has received approval from HCD to revise the Standard Agreement scope of work and budget consistent with the request from Catalyst Family Inc.
Financial Implications: Activities associated with this action are grant funded through CDBG Award/Contract number 20-CDBG-CV1-00075 and are accounted for in the CDBG Economic Development fund, 256-06021-33247 CDBG CV1Grant revenue account and 256-06021-42020 Professional Services expense account. $32,420.64 of the $138,950 grant has been spent with the remaining $106,530 budget available in the account.

Council Agenda Report September 6, 2022 Page 2 of 2
Environmental Considerations: The recommendation in this report is not a project under CEQA, because it does not involve any commitment to a specific project which may result in a potentially significant physical impact on the environment, as contemplated by Title 14, California Code of Regulations, Section 15378(b)(2) and 15378(b)(4) and is, therefore, not subject to CEQA pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15060(c)(3).
Policy Implications:
This action would be part of the City’s continuing emergency response to the COVID-19 crisis and is consistent with use of Federal funding provided by HCD. 179

Report to City Council
Meeting Date: September 6, 2022
Title: Professional Services Agreement with Trella Tahoe, Inc. for Snow Removal Operations
Location: Police Department, City Hall/Airport, Fire Department, and Various City Facilities/Roadways
Responsible Staff Member: John Dickinson, Airport Manager (615) 305-5850 Background: The City used an outside contractor for the Airport Facilities, Fire, and Police Departments to assist with snow removal and operations annually. The City issued a Request for Proposal on July 1, 2022, for Snow Removal Operations during the 2022/2023 winter season.
These services include Lake Tahoe Airport 1901 Lisa Maloff Way, Police Department facility at 1352 John Boulevard, three Fire Stations at 2101 Tahoe Blvd, 2951 Lake Tahoe Blvd, 1252 Ski Run Blvd, and Fire Rescue training facility at 1195 Rufus Allen Blvd. Finally, the services may also include various other areas within the City’s jurisdictional boundary, on an hourly basis, based on need.
Issue and Discussion: These services will close the resource gap and allow the City to manage the Airport Facilities, Police Department, and Fire Department with little issue. In addition, the Contract will allow a not-to-exceed hourly service to provide additional resources to the City, if needed, during heavy storm events or special needs.
The project was advertised on Planet Bids and 13 prospective bidders downloaded the RFP. The City received two bid responses from Trella, Tahoe, Inc., and Mammoth Snow Removal. A threepanel member ranked the two proposals. Trella Tahoe, Inc. was ranked number 1 with a not-toexceed contract amount of $94,600.00, including the optional services (See Attachment 2).
Overall Scores between three (3) panel members are shown below:
Rank Firm Cumulative Score
1 Trella Tahoe Inc. 284
2 Mammoth Snow Removal 224
The Contract break-down of cost include:
• Airport Property: $49,500.00
• Police Department Snow Removal Operation: $9,000.00
• Fire Department Snow Removal Operation (3-sites): $17,700.00 • Fire Rescue Facility: $3,400.00
• On-Call Additional Facilities or Roadway (on an As-Needed basis): $15,000.00 202
Council Agenda Report September 6, 2022 Page 2 of 2
The on-call component of the Contract will be used if needed to manage storm events. Optional services will be used if there are staffing deficiencies or equipment breakdowns. The optional provision will allow the Public Works Department to respond to community needs appropriately.
Financial Implications: The Snow Removal contract will be funded through budget items 501- 05120-42025 Airport Terminal Building/Contract Services ($40K available in FY 2023 approved budget), 207-03610-42025 Snow Removal/Contract Services ($50K is available in FY 2023 approved budget), and 100-03310-42025 Facilities Maintenance/Contract Services ($5K is available in FY 2023 budget). In order to charge only eligible snow removal costs to the reimbursable Snow Removal Fund 207, budget transfers between funds will be requested during FY 2023 mid-year budget review process.
Environmental Considerations: The Project is considered Categorically Exempt (CE) from review under CEQA under CEQA Guidelines section 15301 (Existing Facilities) because it consists of the operation of existing public facilities and mechanical equipment involving negligible or no expansion of use.
Policy Implications: This is a regular City operation, and there are no policy implications. 203

City Fire Rescue Stations
At the four Fire Rescue Facilities identified the standard to start snow removal operations is when 3” or more of snow is observed on pavements at any one of the facilities. The snow should not be allowed to accumulate more than 3” at any Fire Station as these are mission critical infrastructure to the community.
During a prolonged winter storm event, a Contractor should plan on multiple site visits to the Fire Rescue Stations to ensure that snow accumulations remain 3 inches or below during a 24-hour period. Please note these facilities are staffed 24/7/365. Graveyard shift work maybe required. The ramp areas and vacant parking should be cleared for station shift change scheduled at 0600 hours daily.
The Fire Rescue Training Facility located at 1195 Rufus Allen Boulevard, South Lake Tahoe, CA 96150 can be cleared once a day rather than at the 3-inch snow depth limit. Clearing can occur late morning through early afternoon as Contractor schedule permits. Snow storage locations are depicted on maps provided by Fire Rescue.
All paved parking areas will be cleared at Fire Stations 1, 2, and 3 and the fire station training facility. This contract includes 2101 Lake Tahoe Blvd, 2951 Lake Tahoe Blvd, and 1252 Ski Run Blvd and 1195 Rufus Allen Blvd. 228
Lake Tahoe Airport
At the airport on the North face of the hangars, the Airport is requesting that during snow clearing
hangar building that a
push snow blower or
tracked blower be
employed to clear snow
between the face of the
building to a distance of
4-5 feet out from the
building face for each
hangar building. The
remaining snow can be
removed using a loader
or comparable
equipment.
Mechanical snow
removal operations will
commence after snow accumulations on airport property reaches three (3) inches or greater in accumulated snow depth. The snow contractor will be expected to dispatch a removal crew when these conditions are observed. The airport will not be required to request service. The airport will only request service if it discovers that a snow removal crew was never dispatched by the contractor.
The date and times of service under this contract are dependent on local winter weather conditions and can require multiple site visits should snow accumulations reach more than 3” more than once in a 24-hour period.
The airport is open seven days a week, 365 days per year. The Snow Removal Contractor agrees to meet its obligations to clear snow from 0500 am – 10:00 pm when conditions warrant.
When snow conditions exist on the ground at a depth of 3” or greater, the Contractor. agrees to clear a route along Lisa Maloff Way (formerly Airport Road) to allow for entry and exiting of vehicles and at minimum of fifteen (15) vehicle spaces at the public airport parking lot by 6:30 a.m. to allow the opening of City/Airport/Tenant offices at 7:00 am daily. Additional vehicle parking spaces can be cleared after the initial 15 spaces are available at 6:30 a.m.
229
Contractor agrees to adhere to the Lake Tahoe Airport Winter Operations Plan provided (Exhibit A). Contractor is to complete snow removal operations in the following priority order:
1. Clear snow from the surface of Lisa Maloff Way and ensure snow berms created from U.S. Hwy 50 (Caltrans) snow removal operations are removed allowing access into and out from the airport. Clear snow starting at the terminal frontage curbs and pile snow west along the sidewalk and retaining wall in front of the parking lot. Clear fifteen vehicle parking spots along the Eastern row of the public airport parking lot during any storm daily before 06:30 am Pacific Time (Frequency storm to storm when snow accumulation reaches depth of 3” or more. May require more than one visit by Contractor in one day if conditions warrant)
2. Clear the remaining vehicle parking spaces in the public parking lot by pushing snow West towards U.S. Highway 50. Clean up snow on Airport Road providing for two lanes at the entry and exit and the single lane road access to the City owned hangars and the other single lane road access to Gate V1. (Frequency storm to storm when snow accumulation reaches depth of 3” or more. May require more than one visit by the Contractor in one day if conditions warrant)
230
3. Contractor will clear in between hangar buildings pushing snow east and piling the snow as far East along Taxilane Delta. Snow will be piled on Taxilane Delta in a manner that allows for City personnel to use a Kodiak blower to throw the snow accumulated from the hangar rows into the West Airport Storm Water Ditch. There are two solutions. Solution one is to use a loader to push and pick up snow depositing it into the stream area (clear of the taxiway surface). Solution two is to spread the snow out along Taxiway Delta so that it is no more than 5 feet high (tall) so that the Airport Kodiak can come in after and blow the snow into the stream area.
The snow depth on hangar taxilanes between buildings should not exceed 36 inches before initiating snow clearing operations. A multiday winter storm event may require multiple snow removal response efforts to prevent snow from accumulating to an excessive depth.
The Contractor agrees to clear hangar rows in a timely manner post-storm event or upon request by the airport.
231
The Contractor is not responsible for the following snow removal activities at the Airport under this contract:
A. Sanding of roadway, parking lot or any paved areas,

The Contractor acknowledges that aircraft, rotorcraft, and emergency vehicles have right of way at all times.

City Officials will contact the snow removal contractor if City Fire, Police or Airport management observes that a response has not yet been initiated by the snow removal contractor. Failure to respond within a three-hour period after telephone notification from City officials is considered a “no-show” and will be subject to the $500 deduction in payment. City Officials will only call the snow removal contractor in the event that 3 inches or more snow is observed on the ground at one of the City facilities identified in this RFP: (Airport, Police Station, Fire Stations 1, 2 & 3).

DISPLACED JANITOR OPPORTUNITY ACT
California Labor Code
Division 2 Employment Regulation and Supervision
Part 3 Privileges and Immunities
Chapter 4.5 Displaced Janitor Opportunity Act
Sections 1060-1065
1060. The following definitions shall apply throughout this chapter:
(a) "Awarding authority" means any person that awards or otherwise enters into contracts for janitorial or building maintenance services performed within the State of California, including any subcontracts for janitorial or building maintenance services. (b) "Contractor" means any person that employs 25 or more individuals and that enters into a service contract with the awarding authority.
(c) "Employee" means any person employed as a service employee of a contractor or subcontractor who works at least 15 hours per week and whose primary place of employment is in the State of California under a contract to provide janitorial or building maintenance services. "Employee" does not include a person who is a managerial, supervisory, or confidential employee, including those employees who would be so defined under the federal Fair Labor Standards Act.
(d) "Person" means any individual, proprietorship, partnership, joint venture, corporation, limited liability company, trust, association, or other entity that may employ individuals or enter into contracts.
(e) "Service contract" means any contract that has the principal purpose of providing services through the use of service employees.
(f) "Subcontractor" means any person who is not an employee who enters into a contract with a contractor to assist the contractor in performing a service contract. (g) "Successor service contract" means a service contract for the performance of essentially the same services as were previously performed pursuant to a different service contract at the same facility that terminated within the previous 30 days. A service contract entered into more than 30 days after the termination of a predecessor service contract shall be considered a "successor service contract" if its execution was delayed for the purpose of avoiding application of this chapter.
1061. (a) (1) If an awarding authority notifies a contractor that the service contract between the awarding authority and the contractor has been terminated or will be terminated, the awarding authority shall indicate in that notification whether a successor service contract has been or will be awarded in its place and, if so, shall identify the name and address of the successor contractor. The terminated contractor shall, within three working days after receiving that notification, provide to the successor contractor identified by the awarding authority, the name, date of hire, and job classification of each employee employed at the site or sites covered by the terminated service contract at the time of the contract termination.
(2) If the terminated contractor has not learned the identity of the successor contractor, if any, the terminated contractor shall provide that information to the awarding authority, which shall be responsible for providing that information to the successor contractor as soon as that contractor has been selected. (3) The requirements of this section shall be equally applicable to all subcontractors of a terminated contractor.
305
(b) (1) A successor contractor or successor subcontractor shall retain, for a 60-day transition employment period, employees who have been employed by the terminated contractor or its subcontractors, if any, for the preceding four months or longer at the site or sites covered by the successor service contract unless the successor contractor or successor subcontractor has reasonable and substantiated cause not to hire a particular employee based on that employee's performance or conduct while working under the terminated contract. This requirement shall be stated by awarding authorities in all initial bid packages that are governed by this chapter.
(2) The successor contractor or successor subcontractor shall make a written offer of employment to each employee, as required by this section, in the employee's primary language or another language in which the employee is literate. That offer shall state the time within which the employee must accept that offer, but in no case may that time be less than 10 days. Nothing in this section requires the successor contractor or successor subcontractor to pay the same wages or offer the same benefits as were provided by the prior contractor or prior subcontractor. (3) If at any time the successor contractor or successor subcontractor determines that fewer employees are needed to perform services under the successor service contract or successor subcontract than were required by the terminated contractor under the terminated contract or terminated subcontract, the successor contractor or successor subcontractor shall retain employees by seniority within the job classification.
(c) The successor contractor or successor subcontractor, upon commencing service under the successor service contract, shall provide a list of its employees and a list of employees of its subcontractors providing services at the site or sites covered under that contract to the awarding authority. These lists shall indicate which of these employees were employed at the site or sites by the terminated contractor or terminated subcontractor. The successor contractor or successor subcontractor shall also provide a list of any of the terminated contractor's employees who were not retained either by the successor contractor or successor subcontractor, stating the reason these employees were not retained. (d) During the 60-day transition employment period, the successor contractor or successor subcontractor shall maintain a preferential hiring list of eligible covered employees not retained by the successor contractor or successor subcontractor from which the successor contractor or successor subcontractor shall hire additional employees until such time as all of the terminated contractor's or terminated subcontractor's employees have been offered employment with the successor contractor or successor subcontractor. (e) During the initial 60-day transition employment period, the successor contractor or successor subcontractor shall not discharge without cause an employee retained pursuant to this chapter. Cause shall be based only on the performance or conduct of the particular employee.
(f) At the end of the 60-day transition employment period, a successor contractor or successor subcontractor shall provide a written performance evaluation to each employee retained pursuant to this chapter. If the employee's performance during that 60-day period is satisfactory, the successor contractor or successor subcontractor shall offer the employee continued employment. Any employment after the 60-day transition employment period shall be at-will employment under which the employee may be terminated without cause. 1062. (a) An employee, who was not offered employment or who has been discharged in violation of this chapter by a successor contractor or successor subcontractor, or an agent of the employee may bring an action against a successor contractor or successor subcontractor in any superior court of the State of California having jurisdiction over the successor contractor or successor subcontractor. Upon finding a violation of this chapter, the court shall award backpay, including the value of benefits, for each day during which the 306
violation has occurred and continues to occur. The amount of backpay shall be calculated as the greater of either of the following:
(1) The average regular rate of pay received by the employee during the last three years of the employee's employment in the same occupation classification multiplied by the average hours worked during the last three years of the employee's employment.
(2) The final regular rate of pay received by the employee at the time of termination of the predecessor contract multiplied by the number of hours usually worked by the employee.
(b) The court may order a preliminary or permanent injunction to stop the continued violation of this chapter.
(c) If the employee is the prevailing party in the legal action, the court shall award the employee reasonable attorney's fees and costs as part of the costs recoverable. (d) In the absence of a claim by an employee that he or she was terminated in violation of this chapter, an employee may not maintain a cause of action under this chapter solely for the failure of an employer to provide a written performance evaluation. 1063. (a) This chapter only applies to contracts entered into on or after January 1, 2002. (b) Except for the obligations specified in subdivisions (a) and (b) of Section 1061, nothing in this chapter changes or increases the relationship or duties of a property owner or an awarding authority, or their agents, with respect to contractors, subcontractors, or their employees.
(c) Nothing in this chapter limits the right of a property owner or an awarding authority to terminate a service contract or to replace a contractor with another contractor or with the property owner's or awarding authority's own employees. 1064. Nothing in this chapter shall prohibit a local government agency from enacting ordinances relating to displaced janitors that impose greater standards than, or establish additional enforcement provisions to, those prescribed by this chapter. 1065. If any provision or provisions of this chapter or any application thereof is held invalid, that invalidity shall not affect any other provisions or applications of this chapter that can be given effect notwithstanding that invalidity

By signing the filled-out form, you:
1. Certify that the TIN you are giving is correct (or you are waiting for a number to be issued),
2. Certify that you are not subject to backup withholding, or
3. Claim exemption from backup withholding if you are a U.S. exempt payee. If applicable, you are also certifying that as a U.S. person, your allocable share of any partnership income from a U.S. trade or business is not subject to the withholding tax on foreign partners' share of effectively connected income, and
4. Certify that FATCA code(s) entered on this form (if any) indicating that you are exempt from the FATCA reporting, is correct. See What is FATCA reporting, later, for further information.
Note: If you are a U.S. person and a requester gives you a form other than Form W-9 to request your TIN, you must use the requester’s form if it is substantially similar to this Form W-9.
Definition of a U.S. person. For federal tax purposes, you are considered a U.S. person if you are:
• An individual who is a U.S. citizen or U.S. resident alien; • A partnership, corporation, company, or association created or organized in the United States or under the laws of the United States; • An estate (other than a foreign estate); or
• A domestic trust (as defined in Regulations section 301.7701-7).
Special rules for partnerships. Partnerships that conduct a trade or business in the United States are generally required to pay a withholding tax under section 1446 on any foreign partners’ share of effectively connected taxable income from such business. Further, in certain cases where a Form W-9 has not been received, the rules under section 1446 require a partnership to presume that a partner is a foreign person, and pay the section 1446 withholding tax. Therefore, if you are a U.S. person that is a partner in a partnership conducting a trade or business in the United States, provide Form W-9 to the partnership to establish your U.S. status and avoid section 1446 withholding on your share of partnership income.
In the cases below, the following person must give Form W-9 to the partnership for purposes of establishing its U.S. status and avoiding withholding on its allocable share of net income from the partnership conducting a trade or business in the United States.
• In the case of a disregarded entity with a U.S. owner, the U.S. owner of the disregarded entity and not the entity;
• In the case of a grantor trust with a U.S. grantor or other U.S. owner, generally, the U.S. grantor or other U.S. owner of the grantor trust and not the trust; and
• In the case of a U.S. trust (other than a grantor trust), the U.S. trust (other than a grantor trust) and not the beneficiaries of the trust.
Foreign person. If you are a foreign person or the U.S. branch of a foreign bank that has elected to be treated as a U.S. person, do not use Form W-9. Instead, use the appropriate Form W-8 or Form 8233 (see Pub. 515, Withholding of Tax on Nonresident Aliens and Foreign Entities).
Nonresident alien who becomes a resident alien. Generally, only a nonresident alien individual may use the terms of a tax treaty to reduce or eliminate U.S. tax on certain types of income. However, most tax treaties contain a provision known as a “saving clause.” Exceptions specified in the saving clause may permit an exemption from tax to continue for certain types of income even after the payee has otherwise become a U.S. resident alien for tax purposes.
If you are a U.S. resident alien who is relying on an exception contained in the saving clause of a tax treaty to claim an exemption from U.S. tax on certain types of income, you must attach a statement to Form W-9 that specifies the following five items.
1. The treaty country. Generally, this must be the same treaty under which you claimed exemption from tax as a nonresident alien.
2. The treaty article addressing the income.
3. The article number (or location) in the tax treaty that contains the saving clause and its exceptions.
4. The type and amount of income that qualifies for the exemption from tax.
5. Sufficient facts to justify the exemption from tax under the terms of the treaty article.
Example. Article 20 of the U.S.-China income tax treaty allows an exemption from tax for scholarship income received by a Chinese student temporarily present in the United States. Under U.S. law, this student will become a resident alien for tax purposes if his or her stay in the United States exceeds 5 calendar years. However, paragraph 2 of the first Protocol to the U.S.-China treaty (dated April 30, 1984) allows the provisions of Article 20 to continue to apply even after the Chinese student becomes a resident alien of the United States. A Chinese student who qualifies for this exception (under paragraph 2 of the first protocol) and is relying on this exception to claim an exemption from tax on his or her scholarship or fellowship income would attach to Form W-9 a statement that includes the information described above to support that exemption.
If you are a nonresident alien or a foreign entity, give the requester the appropriate completed Form W-8 or Form 8233.
Backup Withholding
What is backup withholding? Persons making certain payments to you must under certain conditions withhold and pay to the IRS 24% of such payments. This is called “backup withholding.” Payments that may be subject to backup withholding include interest, tax-exempt interest, dividends, broker and barter exchange transactions, rents, royalties, nonemployee pay, payments made in settlement of payment card and third party network transactions, and certain payments from fishing boat operators. Real estate transactions are not subject to backup withholding.
You will not be subject to backup withholding on payments you receive if you give the requester your correct TIN, make the proper certifications, and report all your taxable interest and dividends on your tax return.
Payments you receive will be subject to backup withholding if:
1. You do not furnish your TIN to the requester,
2. You do not certify your TIN when required (see the instructions for Part II for details),
3. The IRS tells the requester that you furnished an incorrect TIN,
4. The IRS tells you that you are subject to backup withholding because you did not report all your interest and dividends on your tax return (for reportable interest and dividends only), or
5. You do not certify to the requester that you are not subject to backup withholding under 4 above (for reportable interest and dividend accounts opened after 1983 only).
Certain payees and payments are exempt from backup withholding.
See Exempt payee code, later, and the separate Instructions for the Requester of Form W-9 for more information.
Also see Special rules for partnerships, earlier.
What is FATCA Reporting?
The Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act (FATCA) requires a participating foreign financial institution to report all United States account holders that are specified United States persons. Certain payees are exempt from FATCA reporting. See Exemption from FATCA reporting code, later, and the Instructions for the Requester of Form W-9 for more information.
Updating Your Information
You must provide updated information to any person to whom you claimed to be an exempt payee if you are no longer an exempt payee and anticipate receiving reportable payments in the future from this person. For example, you may need to provide updated information if you are a C corporation that elects to be an S corporation, or if you no longer are tax exempt. In addition, you must furnish a new Form W-9 if the name or TIN changes for the account; for example, if the grantor of a grantor trust dies.
Penalties
Failure to furnish TIN. If you fail to furnish your correct TIN to a requester, you are subject to a penalty of $50 for each such failure unless your failure is due to reasonable cause and not to willful neglect.
Civil penalty for false information with respect to withholding. If you make a false statement with no reasonable basis that results in no backup withholding, you are subject to a $500 penalty.
372
Form W-9 (Rev. 10-2018) Page 3
Criminal penalty for falsifying information. Willfully falsifying certifications or affirmations may subject you to criminal penalties including fines and/or imprisonment.
Misuse of TINs. If the requester discloses or uses TINs in violation of federal law, the requester may be subject to civil and criminal penalties.
Specific Instructions
Line 1
You must enter one of the following on this line; do not leave this line blank. The name should match the name on your tax return.
If this Form W-9 is for a joint account (other than an account maintained by a foreign financial institution (FFI)), list first, and then circle, the name of the person or entity whose number you entered in Part I of Form W-9. If you are providing Form W-9 to an FFI to document a joint account, each holder of the account that is a U.S. person must provide a Form W-9.
a. Individual. Generally, enter the name shown on your tax return. If you have changed your last name without informing the Social Security Administration (SSA) of the name change, enter your first name, the last name as shown on your social security card, and your new last name.
Note: ITIN applicant: Enter your individual name as it was entered on your Form W-7 application, line 1a. This should also be the same as the name you entered on the Form 1040/1040A/1040EZ you filed with your application.
b. Sole proprietor or single-member LLC. Enter your individual name as shown on your 1040/1040A/1040EZ on line 1. You may enter your business, trade, or “doing business as” (DBA) name on line 2. c. Partnership, LLC that is not a single-member LLC, C
corporation, or S corporation. Enter the entity's name as shown on the entity's tax return on line 1 and any business, trade, or DBA name on line 2.
d. Other entities. Enter your name as shown on required U.S. federal tax documents on line 1. This name should match the name shown on the charter or other legal document creating the entity. You may enter any business, trade, or DBA name on line 2.
e. Disregarded entity. For U.S. federal tax purposes, an entity that is disregarded as an entity separate from its owner is treated as a “disregarded entity.” See Regulations section 301.7701-2(c)(2)(iii). Enter the owner's name on line 1. The name of the entity entered on line 1 should never be a disregarded entity. The name on line 1 should be the name shown on the income tax return on which the income should be reported. For example, if a foreign LLC that is treated as a disregarded entity for U.S. federal tax purposes has a single owner that is a U.S. person, the U.S. owner's name is required to be provided on line 1. If the direct owner of the entity is also a disregarded entity, enter the first owner that is not disregarded for federal tax purposes. Enter the disregarded entity's name on line 2, “Business name/disregarded entity name.” If the owner of the disregarded entity is a foreign person, the owner must complete an appropriate Form W-8 instead of a Form W-9.
This is the case even if the foreign person has a U.S. TIN.

Line 5
Enter your address (number, street, and apartment or suite number).
This is where the requester of this Form W-9 will mail your information returns. If this address differs from the one the requester already has on file, write NEW at the top. If a new address is provided, there is still a chance the old address will be used until the payor changes your address in their records.
Line 6
Enter your city, state, and ZIP code.
Part I. Taxpayer Identification Number (TIN)
Enter your TIN in the appropriate box. If you are a resident alien and you do not have and are not eligible to get an SSN, your TIN is your IRS individual taxpayer identification number (ITIN). Enter it in the social security number box. If you do not have an ITIN, see How to get a TIN below.
If you are a sole proprietor and you have an EIN, you may enter either your SSN or EIN.
If you are a single-member LLC that is disregarded as an entity separate from its owner, enter the owner’s SSN (or EIN, if the owner has one). Do not enter the disregarded entity’s EIN. If the LLC is classified as a corporation or partnership, enter the entity’s EIN.
Note: See What Name and Number To Give the Requester, later, for further clarification of name and TIN combinations.
How to get a TIN. If you do not have a TIN, apply for one immediately.
To apply for an SSN, get Form SS-5, Application for a Social Security Card, from your local SSA office or get this form online at www.SSA.gov. You may also get this form by calling 1-800-772-1213.
Use Form W-7, Application for IRS Individual Taxpayer Identification Number, to apply for an ITIN, or Form SS-4, Application for Employer Identification Number, to apply for an EIN. You can apply for an EIN online by accessing the IRS website at www.irs.gov/Businesses and clicking on Employer Identification Number (EIN) under Starting a Business. Go to www.irs.gov/Forms to view, download, or print Form W-7 and/or Form SS-4. Or, you can go to www.irs.gov/OrderForms to place an order and have Form W-7 and/or SS-4 mailed to you within 10 business days.
If you are asked to complete Form W-9 but do not have a TIN, apply for a TIN and write “Applied For” in the space for the TIN, sign and date the form, and give it to the requester. For interest and dividend payments, and certain payments made with respect to readily tradable instruments, generally you will have 60 days to get a TIN and give it to the requester before you are subject to backup withholding on payments. The 60-day rule does not apply to other types of payments.
You will be subject to backup withholding on all such payments until you provide your TIN to the requester.
Note: Entering “Applied For” means that you have already applied for a TIN or that you intend to apply for one soon.
Caution: A disregarded U.S. entity that has a foreign owner must use the appropriate Form W-8.
Part II. Certification
To establish to the withholding agent that you are a U.S. person, or resident alien, sign Form W-9. You may be requested to sign by the withholding agent even if item 1, 4, or 5 below indicates otherwise.
For a joint account, only the person whose TIN is shown in Part I should sign (when required). In the case of a disregarded entity, the person identified on line 1 must sign. Exempt payees, see Exempt payee code, earlier.
Signature requirements. Complete the certification as indicated in items 1 through 5 below.

Secure Your Tax Records From Identity Theft
Identity theft occurs when someone uses your personal information such as your name, SSN, or other identifying information, without your permission, to commit fraud or other crimes. An identity thief may use your SSN to get a job or may file a tax return using your SSN to receive a refund.
To reduce your risk:
• Protect your SSN,
• Ensure your employer is protecting your SSN, and
• Be careful when choosing a tax preparer.
If your tax records are affected by identity theft and you receive a notice from the IRS, respond right away to the name and phone number printed on the IRS notice or letter.
If your tax records are not currently affected by identity theft but you think you are at risk due to a lost or stolen purse or wallet, questionable credit card activity or credit report, contact the IRS Identity Theft Hotline at 1-800-908-4490 or submit Form 14039.
For more information, see Pub. 5027, Identity Theft Information for Taxpayers.
Victims of identity theft who are experiencing economic harm or a systemic problem, or are seeking help in resolving tax problems that have not been resolved through normal channels, may be eligible for Taxpayer Advocate Service (TAS) assistance. You can reach TAS by calling the TAS toll-free case intake line at 1-877-777-4778 or TTY/TDD 1-800-829-4059.
Protect yourself from suspicious emails or phishing schemes.
Phishing is the creation and use of email and websites designed to mimic legitimate business emails and websites. The most common act is sending an email to a user falsely claiming to be an established legitimate enterprise in an attempt to scam the user into surrendering private information that will be used for identity theft. 375

City of South Lake Tahoe
Report to City Council
Meeting Date: September 6, 2022
Title: Professional Services Agreement for Design/Engineering Services for the Barton Ave & 2nd Street Drainage Project
Location: Third St. and 2nd St. between Barton Ave. and Helen Ave; Barton Ave between 3rd St. and 2nd St; Helen Ave. between Third St. and Winnemucca Ave; Winnemucca Ave. between Helen Ave. and Silver Tip Ave; and Silver Tip Ave. between Winnemucca Ave. and Truckee Drive Responsible Staff Members: Stan Hill, Engineering Manager/City Engineer Jason Burke, Complete Streets Manager
Background:
The Department of Public Works has received many complaints of flooding in the Barton Ave – Second Street neighborhood, because the area was developed with no drainage systems prior to City of South Lake Tahoe (City) incorporation in 1965. The flooding issue is most prevalent on 2nd Street between Barton and Helen Avenue and was noted as a priority problem area in the Drainage Master Plan Update presented to the City Council on April 20, 2021. Stormwater flooding also regularly occurs on Helen Avenue (east of 2nd Street), Winnemucca Ave (between Helen Ave and Silver Tip Ave), and on Silver Tip Ave.
The Barton Ave and 2nd Street Drainage Project will alleviate flooding seasonally experienced at Helen Ave and 3rd Street intersection, address significant flooding on 2nd Street between Helen and Barton that impacts the mobile home park, and associated flooding that impacts the Jubilee Kids Academy (2249 Helen Avenue and adjacent residences). The project will also provide stormwater treatment prior to conveyance of excess runoff to the end of Silver Tip Avenue where it has historically discharged to the Johnson Meadow property, now owned by the Tahoe Resource Conservation District.
Issue and Discussion:
On May 31, 2022, Public Works posted a Request for Proposals (RFP) on the PlanetBids website, for engineering design services for the Barton Avenue & 2nd Street Drainage Project.
Unfortunately, no proposals were delivered by the submittal due date. The Project was posted a 2nd time on PlanetBids on July 15, 2022. On July 29th, the City received three proposals from interested consultants.
Following review of the three proposals, consultant, SNG & Associates (SNG) was selected as the most qualified design/engineering team. The Professional Services Agreement (PSA) between the City and SNG for a not-to-exceed lump sum amount of $214,780 will allow SNG to immediately begin the Project engineering/design effort as described in the PSA, Scope of Work (Attachment 03).

The 100% Plans, Specifications, and Estimate (PS&E) bid documents are scheduled for completion at the end of January 2023. Following completion of the 100% PS&E documents, Public Works will bid and award the Project. Construction is scheduled for completion by the end of October 2023.
Financial Implications:
Via Resolution 2022-006 (Attachment 04), City Council accepted and appropriated a California Natural Resources Agency (CNRA) Proposition 68 grant ($1,289,822) which included $183,743 in City contribution towards $234,224 total budget for Engineering Design. The City’s engineering and design contribution to the Project will be used to compensate SNG & Associates for the completion of 100% PS&E bid documents.
Public Works Department negotiated an agreement fee with SNG & Associates for a not to exceed lump sum fee of $214,780. The Scope of Work attached to the PSA describes the work tasks and deliverables required of SNG & Associates.
Environmental Considerations:
On June 15, 2021, a CEQA Notice of Exemption was filed by the City Planning Manager with the State Clearinghouse as a Class 4, 15304 (minor alteration to land) categorical exemption, State Clearinghouse Number 2021060316. The proposed Project improvements consist of minor alterations in the condition of land, water, and/or vegetation which do not involve removal of healthy, mature scenic trees.
A TRPA EIP permit for the Project will be acquired by the Engineering Division before the start of Project construction. The California Tahoe Conservancy approved a License Agreement on June 15, 2017 (C-93-17) for the use of three Conservancy parcels for the construction and maintenance of the stormwater treatment basin on Second Street.
Policy Implications:
The Project will assist with the updated City Council Priorities to improve road drainage conditions, to ensure pavement resurfacing investments are long-lasting, prepare for increased flooding risks due to climate change, and build public trust by following through with previous commitments with tangible results.
The Project will address major drainage issues identified in the Updated Drainage Master Plan presented to the City Council on April 20, 20211 and as shown in the attached Project Location Map and Photos. The proposed improvements will also assist the City in meeting the sediment and nutrient reductions mandated by the Lake Tahoe TMDL. Meeting sediment and nutrient reduction mandates will assist with receiving all housing allocations under TRPA Code section
50.5.2.E.2 (Distribution and Administration of Residential Allocations – TMDL Implementation).

Consultant agrees to defend City from and against any and all losses, damages, claims costs and fees arising out Consultant’s negligent acts, errors, omissions, regarding this Agreement, the Consultant’s work under this Agreement, or the consultant’s Scope of Work.

Report to City Council
Meeting Date: September 6, 2022
Title: Acceptance and Appropriation of National Opioid Litigation Settlement Funds in the Amount of $44,480.70 for Year One
Location: Citywide
Responsible Staff Member: Heather Stroud, City Attorney (530) 542-6046 Background:
On December 7, 2021, City Council adopted Resolution No. 2021-105 which approved the City’s participation in the National Opioid Litigation Settlement. The $26 Billion settlement consists of agreements with opioid distributors McKesson, Cardinal Health, and Amerisource Bergen and opioid manufacturer Janssen. The resolution delegated authority to the City Manager and City Attorney, on an annual basis, to select direct distribution of some or all of the City’s settlement funds. In any year that the City does not select direct distribution, the City’s share of funds will go automatically to El Dorado County.
Issue and Discussion:
The City Manager and City Attorney selected direct distribution of the funds, which are required to be used for certain opioid abatement activities. The funds will be used for allowable opioid abatement activities in support of the Police Department’s South Tahoe Area Collaborative Services (STACS) program. The City has been notified that its payment of settlement funds for the first year will be $44,480.70.
Financial Implications:
The proposed resolution would authorize the Director of Finance to accept the funds for year one (and future years where direct allocation is selected), appropriate these funds into a newly created Opioid Abatement Program Account No. 290-02110, -36294 Opioid Settlement Proceeds revenue and 42025 Contract Services expense line items, and authorize the Opioid Abatement Program account to have a corresponding automatic revenue and expenditure appropriations of an equivalent amount for opioid abatement purposes for all future years’ National Opioid litigation settlement funds. Based on the year one distribution to the City, the total distribution over the 18- year term of the settlement is estimated to be $800,652.60.
Environmental Considerations:
This action is not a “project” subject to review under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) under CEQA Guidelines section 15378(b)(4) (the creation of government funding mechanisms or other government fiscal activities which do not involve any commitment to any specific project which may result in a potentially significant physical impact on the environment). 405
Council Agenda Report- September 6, 2022 Page 2 of 2
Policy Implications:
This action is consistent with City of South Lake Tahoe Strategic Plan 2021-2026 Priority 3.1 (Mental Health and Homelessness), specifically action item 2 (full implementation of STACS). 406

A. On December 7, 2021, City Council adopted Resolution No. 2021-105, which approved the City’s participation in the National Opioid Litigation Settlement with opioid distributors McKesson, Cardinal Health, and Amerisource Bergen and opioid manufacturer Janssen.
B. Under the terms of the settlement, $21 Billion will be paid by the opioid distributors over an 18-year period and $5 Billion will be paid by Janssen over a 9-year period.
C. The settlement allows the City to elect direct distribution of funds, or to allow the City’s share to be distributed to El Dorado County. Resolution No. 2021-105 delegated authority to the City Manager and City Attorney, on an annual basis, to elect direct distribution. The City Manager and City Attorney have elected direct distribution at this time.
D. Settlement funds must be used for authorized opioid abatement activities.
BASED ON THE FACTS SET FORTH IN THE BACKGROUND, BE IT RESOLVED, that the City Council of the City of South Lake Tahoe:
1. Accepts $44,480.70 in National Opioid Litigation settlement funds for year one and appropriates these funds into Opioid Abatement Program accounts as follows:
290-02110-36294 Opioid Settlement Proceeds $44,480.70 (revenue) 290-02110-42025 Contract Services $44,480.70 (expenditures)

Title: Appropriation to Pay Two Liability Claims from MetLife Home and Auto and Robert Giacomini
Location: Citywide
Responsible Staff Member: Rebecca Penado, Risk Manager (530) 542-6064 Background: The Police Department is in need of funding to pay two liability claims that are related to their operations.
Issue and Discussion:
The first claim was received from MetLife Auto & Home on behalf of Eric Day on April 13, 2021 for $2,457.42. This incident involved a City patrol vehicle sliding on ice into the Mr. Day’s vehicle which was previously involved in another collision on Keller Road on February 20, 2021. After negotiations between the driver’s insurer and our claims administrator, the City accepted 50% liability and paid 50% of amount claimed. The City Attorney authorized the settlement under her delegated settlement authority. $1,391.21 was paid on December 20, 2021, in subrogation to MetLife Auto & Home. This amount was charged to a police account that was already depleted of funds, therefore creating a negative balance. Appropriation of funds is requested to balance the account.
The second claim was received from Robert Giacomini on April 4, 2022, for the amount of $6,283.00. This incident involved a wanted felon that broke into Mr. Giacomini’s home at 868 Lakeview Ave where he hid in the attic to avoid police. Mr. Giacomini cooperated with the Police Department by giving them permission to enter his home so they could arrest the suspect. The suspect caused extensive damage to the attic by dislodging electrical and HVAC components as well as falling through the ceiling, and the Police Department caused some damage as well while attempting to access the suspect in the attic. The Police Department has requested restitution for the full amount through the courts, which will be deposited in the general fund if received. The settlement amount for the claim has been approved by the City Attorney and the City Manager under their delegated joint settlement authority.
Staff recommends passing a resolution appropriating $7,674.21 to Police Administration Risk Management – City Property Damage account to be used to pay two liability claims.
Financial Implications: The amount is not to exceed $7,674.21. Staff is requesting allocation of money from the General Fund Undesignated Excess Reserve to Police Department account #100-02110-44018 to be able to pay two liability claims. 480

B. Liability Claim #2 - On April 4, 2022, there was an incident involving damage to a residence owned by Claimant Robert Giacomini.

Title: Broadband Feasibility Study Presentation
Location: Citywide
Responsible Staff Member: Anush Nejad, Director of Public Works - (530) 542-6031 Background: On March 11, 2021, the American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) was signed into law and established the Coronavirus State and Local Fiscal Recovery Funds (SLFRF). On August 17, 2021, City Council discussed the results of a community survey representing a variety of projects and programs to assist the city in providing economic assistance from the negative impacts of the Covid-19 pandemic. The list of projects included, among others, a Broadband Feasibility Study and associated Infrastructure implementation. On May 3, 2022, the City Council awarded a contract to NEO Connect to prepare the Broadband Feasibility Study.
Issue and Discussion: The Feasibility study report will look at the following topics:
1. Technology and Trends Review
2. Policy Analysis
3. Service and Infrastructure Analysis
4. Needs Assessment and Outreach
5. Market Analysis
6. Site Analysis
7. Gap Analysis
8. Business Case Needs Assessment
9. Development of Business Model
10.Recommended Broadband Strategy
11.Project Identification and Master Plan
12.Draft and Final Reports
NEO Connect has distributed an English and Spanish version of a residential and business survey to citizens and businesses to provide feedback on the current levels of broadband availability; how homeowners and businesses are currently using the Internet, what currently is being paid for services, and what is most important regarding high-speed Internet service. Additionally, a link for survey participants to take an actual speed test was provided.
The goal of 370 responses for the residential survey was achieved with 503 surveys completed, resulting in a margin of error of +/- 1.951%. We are continuing to survey the businesses to achieve the 5% margin of error through the Chambers of Commerce.
NEO Connect has also completed the Technology and Trends and Service Infrastructure Analysis.

Council Agenda Report September 6, 2022 Page 2 of 2
The purpose of the presentation is to summarize the community surveys and provide updates and receive input on potential Business Case options.
Financial Implications: Receiving this report and providing direction to staff does not commit any additional funding to the project. The goal of the project is to identify potential projects that would be submitted to City Council for consideration and funding allocation at a future date.
Environmental Considerations: Receiving this report and providing direction to staff is not approval of a project subject to review under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) under CEQA Guidelines sections 15352 and 15378 because it does not commit the City to a definite course of action regarding the projects listed within the Capital Improvement Plan and does not have the potential for resulting in either a direct or reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change to the environment.
Policy Implications: This project advances the City Council Strategic Priorities and Goals, specifically:
Action Item 1.1 (Broadband For All) to connect the community via high-speed internet to serve the needs of local businesses, and residents, and attract remote workers to the Region. Develop a broadband infrastructure deployment plan that identifies fiber hubs, lastmile transit, relay points, and redundancy. The city should explore innovative broadband models and funding opportunities to implement projects

Meeting Date: September 6, 2022
Title: Pilot Traffic Calming Projects for Lakeview Ave and Highland Woods Neighborhoods Location: Lakeview Avenue and Highland Woods Neighborhoods Responsible Staff Member: Anush Nejad, Director of Public Works - (530) 542-6031 Background: City staff has received several requests to evaluate traffic calming projects in the Highland Woods and Lakeview Avenue neighborhoods during the last 2-years. City staff has continued implementing various traffic calming strategies, such as installing Planter Boxes on Lakeview, monitoring traffic speeds, and enforcing current speed limits in these neighborhoods and other locations citywide.
During the last two-month, City staff has met and discussed several Traffic Calming ideas with the neighborhoods. The residents' predominant issues are speeding, cut-through traffic, nuisance, and other visitor impacts along the Regan Beach area and Lakeview, especially during the summer months.
In cooperation with the residents, staff developed several solutions, which were presented to the community members on July 12 for the Woodland Woods neighborhood and July 13 for the Lakeview neighborhood. Public notices were issued before the meeting, and many residents attended both events.
Issue and Discussion: Traffic calming involves strategies and solutions that may reduce vehicular speeds, cut-through traffic, and improve safety for all users. It enhances the quality of life for residents in the neighborhoods and will benefit the City from various perspectives, including:
Encourage resident involvement with neighborhood traffic management in the City Improve driver attention and awareness, and change driving behavior that brings long-term benefits
Enhance safety for all users – auto, transit, bicyclists, non-motorized vehicles, and pedestrians
Encourage non-auto modes of transportation such as walking and bicycling Provide a fair and consistent process to address public concerns about traffic Enhance the livability of residential neighborhoods
Traffic calming strategies and solutions follow the four strategies in developing appropriate solutions:
504
Council Agenda Report September 6, 2022 Page 2 of 3
1. Empowerment – Strategies involve community members taking the initiative in solving traffic-related problems.
2. Engineering – Physical improvements on street configurations, signage improvements, and other unique treatments.
3. Education – Strategies and solutions through various educational events and materials convey the importance of neighborhood traffic safety.
4. Enforcement – Solutions involve compliance with traffic regulations and enforcing violated traffic activities.
Several options were presented to the communities. Each community has generally accepted the proposed solutions. These include as follows for each neighborhood:
Woodland High Neighborhood
1. Installation of a Gateway Traffic Control at Springwood Dr. and Silver Dollar Ave.
2. Installation of a min-Traffic Circle/Gateway at Springwood Dr. and Rubicon Trail
3. Installation of a mini-Traffic Circle at Springwood Dr. and Creekwood Dr.
The upgrades can be implemented by painting roadways and installing signs by City forces. The estimated cost for material is $12,000 and can be implemented by November 2022 or early Spring 2023.
Lakeview Avenue
1. Installation of a Gateway and ADA Ramps/Crosswalk at Lakeview and Harrison
2. Installation of two Permanent Speed Feedback Electronic Signs
3. Installation of Removal Rubberized Speed Humps between April and October
4. Installation of Spikes for Regan Beach Exit to control un-authorized access after hours
5. Installation After-Hour Parking Prohibition and Noise Ordinance Notification Sign in Regan Beach Parking area
6. Changing Regan Beach Park Sign to 6:30 AM to Closing (Subject to change due to weather).
City forces can implement the upgrades by installing signs and other traffic control devices. The estimated cost for materials is $116,000. Some of the changes can be implemented before November 2022, but the speed humps require a longer delivery time and can be installed by early Spring 2023.
The proposed traffic calming solution will include public notification, education, and enforcement.
Subsequent before and after traffic and speed surveys will be collected to measure the impacts of these changes. The estimated budget for the traffic counters is $22,400.
Financial Implications: Staff is requested via the attached Resolution General Fund Undesignated Excess Reserves appropriations of $150,000 into Misc. Traffic Safety account 301- 50043-36300 and authorizing the City Manager to execute the necessary purchase orders for equipment procurement related to this project.
505
Council Agenda Report September 6, 2022 Page 3 of 3
Environmental Considerations: Traffic safety projects, including traffic calming, is considered safety project and is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) under CEQA Guidelines section 15378(b)(2) (continuing administrative or maintenance activities, such as purchases for supplies) if the type of installation complies with the CA-MUTCD guidance.
Policy Implications: This project advances the City Council Strategic Priorities and Goals, specifically related to traffic safety and neighborhood preservation. 506

Road Diet
• One of the most effective
means of traffic speed is
road diet – To reduce the
effective width of driving
lanes and reduce speeds
• Challenge is the snow
operations during winter
512
Traffic Circles
• Roundabouts are another
effective means
• Again, physical islands are
a challenge for snow
operations during winter
513
Speed Hump or
Speed Tables
• Speed Humps are also
a good deterrence to
speeders

Agenda Item #: 20
Agenda Item: Vision Zero Goal and Grant Application of Safe Streets and Roads for All Executive Summary: Across the country, U.S. towns and cities are committing to Vision Zero, which, in addition to setting the goal of zero traffic deaths or severe injuries, also commits communities to a fundamental shift in how they approach traffic safety. Once a community has committed to Vision Zero, it should create an Action Plan to clearly lay out action steps, timelines, and priorities and include broader community and stakeholder input. Vision Zero has the potential to galvanize a thorough and lasting shift in how we design and use our transportation systems to prioritize the preservation and quality of human life. The Safe Streets for All (SS4A) will fund Vision Zero program Action Plans through competitive grant applications.
Requested Action / Suggested Motions: Pass a Resolution authorizing and directing the Director of Public Works to file a grant application with U.S. Department of Transportation for a grant in the amount of $250,000 to prepare a Vision Zero Action Plan.

Title: Vision Zero Goal and Grant Application of Safe Streets and Roads for All Location: Citywide
Responsible Staff Member: Anush Nejad, Director of Public Works (530) 542-6031 Background: The U.S. Department of Transportation (USDOT) has issued a Notice of Funding Opportunity (NFO) for the Safe Streets and Roads for ALL (SSA) grant. Section 24112 of the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (Pub. L. 117–58, November 15, 2021; also referred to as the “Bipartisan Infrastructure Law” or “BIL”) authorized and appropriated $1 billion to be awarded by the Department of Transportation for FY 2022 for the SS4A grant program.
The purpose of SS4A grants is to improve roadway safety by significantly reducing or eliminating roadway fatalities and serious injuries through safety action plan development and implementation focused on all users, including pedestrians, bicyclists, and public transportation users, motorists, personal conveyance and micro-mobility users, and commercial vehicle operators. The program provides funding to develop the tools to help strengthen a community’s approach to roadway safety and save lives and is designed to meet the needs of diverse local, Tribal, and regional communities that differ dramatically in size, location, and experience administering Federal funding.
In accordance with City policies, the Public Works staff requests authorization to pursue the above grant for the following projects, including the anticipated match that these grants would require.
Issue and Discussion: The SS4A program provides funding for two types of grants:
Action Plan Grants (for comprehensive safety action plans) and Implementation Grants.
Action Plan Grants are used to develop, complete, or supplement a comprehensive safety action plan. An Action Plan is the foundation of the SS4A grant program. Action Plan Grants provide Federal funds to eligible applicants to develop or complete an Action Plan. Action Plan Grants may also fund supplemental Action Plan activities. The goal of an Action Plan is to develop a holistic, well-defined strategy to prevent roadway fatalities and serious injuries in a locality, Tribe, or region.
Staff is proposing a grant application to prepare a Vision-Zero Action Plan. The primary deliverable for an Action Plan is a publicly available Action Plan. The Action Plan included the following components:
528
Council Agenda Report September 6, 2022 Page 2 of 3
1. Leadership Commitment and Goal Setting: An official public commitment (e.g., resolution, policy, ordinance, etc.) by the City Council to an eventual goal of zero roadway fatalities and serious injuries. The commitment must include a goal and timeline for eliminating roadway fatalities and serious injuries achieved through one, or both, of the following:
a. the target date for achieving zero roadway fatalities and serious injuries, OR
b. an ambitious percentage reduction of roadway fatalities and serious injuries by a specific date with an eventual goal of eliminating roadway fatalities and serious injuries.
2. Planning Structure: A committee, task force, implementation group, or similar body charged with oversight of the Action Plan development, implementation, and monitoring.
3. Safety Analysis: Analysis of existing conditions and historical trends provides a baseline level of crashes involving fatalities and serious injuries across a jurisdiction. To the extent practical, the analysis should include all roadways within the jurisdiction without regard for ownership.
4. Engagement and Collaboration: Robust engagement with the public and relevant stakeholders, including the private sector and community groups, allows for community representation and feedback.
5. Equity Considerations: Plan development using inclusive and representative processes. Underserved communities are identified through data and other analyses in collaboration with appropriate partners.
6. Policy and Process Changes: Assessment of current policies, plans, guidelines, and/or standards (e.g., manuals) to identify opportunities to improve how processes prioritize transportation safety.
7. Strategy and Project Selections: Identification of a comprehensive set of projects and strategies shaped by data, the best available evidence, and noteworthy practices, as well as stakeholder input and equity considerations that will address the safety problems described in the Action Plan.
8. Progress and Transparency: Method to measure progress over time after an Action Plan is developed or updated, including outcome data.
Staff has reached out to Tahoe Regional Planning Agency (TRPA) and the California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) and they are both supportive of this grant application. Letter of Support from TRPA is included as Attachment 4. Draft Letter of Support from Caltrans is included as Attachment 5. The final letter is expected before the application due date.
529
Council Agenda Report September 6, 2022 Page 3 of 3
Staff will work with various departments to set up the Task Force. Staff also plans to develop a draft Resolution supporting the Vision Zero Plan (Attachment 2). The Resolution will be initially submitted to the Planning Commission for review and recommendation. The final Vision Zero will be brought back to the Council for approval once the Grant Application is awarded.
Financial Implications: Staff is proposing a $250,000 grant application, including 20% matching funds for $50,000. Matching funding will come from the $150,000 proposed CIP Mid-year Budget in Account 301-50043 (Citywide Traffic Safety, Traffic Calming, ADA, and Flooding Mitigation) Project.
Environmental Considerations: The appropriation of funds for the projects mentioned above is categorically exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) under Section 15301 of the CEQA Guidelines (existing facilities).
Policy Implications: This project advances the City’s objective to improve safety and reduce crashes in the City.

BACKGROUND
A. According to data from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration each year approximately 40,000 people are killed in traffic collisions in the United States.
B. In a study comparing 19 peer nations the Center for Disease Control and Prevention found that the United States has the highest traffic death rate per person.
C. From 2017 to 2021, 24 people died and 526 suffered injuries in the City of South Lake Tahoe an average of 4.8 deaths and 105 injuries per year, including US 50 and 89 corridors operated and maintained by Caltrans.
D. There were five fatalities and 49 injuries involving pedestrian and bicycle crashes in the City during this time period, including the US 50 and 89 corridors operated and maintained by Caltrans.
E. One death on streets in the city is one too many and the City is dedicated to strategies that aim to reduce and eliminate deaths and serious injuries on streets in the city.
F. Senior citizens and people with disabilities, low-income income communities, and people bicycling face a disproportionate risk of traffic injuries and fatalities.
G. Vision Zero is a health-based traffic safety strategy to reduce and eventually eliminate traffic deaths and serious injuries through a data-driven multi-disciplinary and safe systems approach that also increases safe healthy equitable mobility for all.
H. Vision Zero recognizes that while human error will always occur a combination of engineering education and enforcement measures can reduce collisions and can prevent collisions from causing death or severe injuries.
I. The City s General Plan identifies safety as one of the goals of the transportation system, including pedestrian and bicycle safety.
J. The Federal Highway Administration has made a commitment to eliminating fatalities and serious injuries on the nation's roadways using a data-driven interdisciplinary approach modeled after Vision Zero.
K. Caltrans has adopted the goal of moving toward zero deaths with a focus on using proven effective strategies and countermeasures.
L. The City declares that Vision Zero is the citywide guiding principle for transportation planning the design of streets and sidewalks and the maintenance of the public rights of way.
M. The City will plan and design its transportation system with the overriding goal of eliminating fatalities and serious injuries among all system users and will work with Caltrans to improve safety in the US 50 and US 89 corridors. 532

The Honorable Pete Buttigieg
Secretary of the United States Department of Transportation 1200 New Jersey Avenue, SE
Washington, DC 20590
Dear Secretary Buttigieg:
The Tahoe Regional Planning Agency (TRPA) supports the application from the City of South Lake Tahoe to the United States Department of Transportation’s (USDOT) Safe Streets and Roads for All (SS4A) competitive grant program for the Vision Zero Action Plan Project (Project).
TRPA is excited to partner with the City to develop a Vision Zero Action Plan. The Project will conveniently coincide with a needed update to the existing TRPA Lake Tahoe Region Safety Strategy. The Vision Zero planning effort can benefit historically disadvantaged communities in South Lake Tahoe, support implementation of the Regional Transportation Plan projects and programs, and help the region reach environmental and sustainability goals.
The City is an important partner in the region with the largest population and most dense network of streets. Developing a Vision Zero Action Plan will benefit the largest population center and area of visitation in the Lake Tahoe Region. This plan is critical to ensure residents and the multitude of visitors to Tahoe feel safe getting around without a car. Folding this work into the updated Safety Strategy will ensure that the most vulnerable communities are protected, and that TRPA can track and prioritize those projects that achieve the Regions safety goals.
TRPA would like to thank the USDOT for its consideration of this Project.
Sincerely,
Nick Haven

The Honorable Pete Buttigieg
Secretary of the United States Department of Transportation 1200 New Jersey Avenue, SE
Washington, DC 20590
Dear Secretary Buttigieg:
The California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) supports the application of the City of South Lake Tahoe to the United States Department of Transportation’s (USDOT) Safe Streets for All (SS4A) grant program for the Zero Vision Action Plan Project (Project).
The City of South Lake Tahoe requests $200,000 through the FY 2022 SS4A grant with 20% ($50,000) of local match funds. The proposed Project is a planning effort that would benefit five (5) Historically Disadvantaged Community census tracks in the City. The Zero Vision Project will develop a citywide Traffic Safety Plan. The project will collect traffic and crash data, including bicycles and pedestrians. The project will use crash data to pinpoint the factors contributing to traffic fatalities and injuries and identify proven safety countermeasures to address these factors through education, engineering, enforcement, and evaluation to achieve the Zero-Vision goals. The Project addresses safety, environmental sustainability, quality of life, mobility and community connectivity, equity, micro-mobility, and personal conveyance (scooters). This plan will complement the Complete Street Planning effort envisioned by the city. The city is partnering with Tahoe Regional Planning Agency (TRPA), the MPO for the region, with this effort.
Caltrans is a significant partner with the City of South Lake Tahoe through the US 50 corridor, with access through the entire City.
Caltrans would like to thank USDOT for its consideration of this Project.
Sincerely,
Director

Why Vision
Zero?
Across the country, U.S. towns and
cities are committing to Vision
Zero, which, in addition to setting
the goal of zero traffic deaths or
severe injuries, also commits
communities to a fundamental
shift in how they approach traffic
safety.
537
What
Distinguishes
Vision Zero
Vision Zero is a strategy to eliminate all
traffic fatalities and severe injuries,
while increasing safe, healthy, equitable
mobility for all. In creating a Vision Zero
Action Plan, stakeholders should
understand, acknowledge, and discuss
how Vision Zero differs from the
traditional approach to traffic safety.

Report to City Council
Meeting Date: September 6, 2022
Title: Notice of Hearing to Establish Johnson Blvd Utility Underground District Boundary Location: Johnson Blvd between Lake Tahoe Blvd and Happy Homestead Lane (County Courthouse and South Lake Tahoe Police Department main driveway entrance).
Responsible Staff Member: Stan Hill, Email: [email protected] Phone: (530) 542-6039 Background: Undergrounding of overhead utilities along Johnson Blvd is the first step in development of the proposed Johnson Blvd Complete Streets Project. The proposed Johnson Blvd Complete Streets Project is included within the Fiscal Year 2022-2027 Capital Improvement Project (CIP) Five-Year Plan and is cited as a high priority project within the South Tahoe Middle School Connectivity Study. The future complete streets project will include a Class 1 mixed use bike and pedestrian trail between the existing Al Tahoe Blvd Class 1 bicycle trail and the South Tahoe Bikeway located adjacent to Lake Tahoe Blvd. Removal of overhead utilities and utility poles frees up needed public right-of-way space for the proposed Johnson Blvd Complete Streets Project.
Issue and Discussion: Undergrounding of overhead utilities requires the formation of an Underground Utility District (UUD) and approval of the California Public Utilities Commission to apply Rule 20A funding to the cost of engineering, designing, and construction of undergrounding utility infrastructure.
The City’s financial contribution to undergrounding overhead utilities is limited to the staff time and City Council time to create the UUD. During construction, the City’s Resident Engineer/Inspector will monitor work within the public right-of-way in the interest of public safety awareness and conformance to specifications affecting City interests.
Through Rule 20A utility undergrounding procedures, Liberty Utilities is tasked to coordinate with all affected utility companies and South Tahoe Public Utility Company (STPUD) for the preparation of plans, specifications, and estimate (PS&E) bid documents. Liberty Utilities will also bid, award, and administrate the construction contract to install underground conduit and utility vaults necessary for relocating overhead electrical and communication facilities. Each of the affected Utility’s will be responsible relocating their overhead wires within the underground conduits and removing their overhead wires from the utility poles.
The existing utility poles will be removed after overhead utilities are undergrounded.
City Code, Chapter 7.10, Underground Utility Districts defines the City’s required procedures for the formation of a UUD. In accordance with City Code, City Council by resolution, determines the area to be included in a proposed UUD. The resolution sets a location and date for a public hearing. City Council will determine if the public necessity, health or safety requires the removal of overhead electric or communication facilities within all or any part of the proposed UUD. Specific noticing requirements for the public hearing are detailed within section 7.10.030 of City Code.
If City Council makes the findings supporting the formation of the UUD, a resolution will be passed and adopted establishing the formation of the UUD. The resolution will define the UUD area and fix the time frame for completing the removal of overhead utilities. Affected property owners are thereby advised of when they need to be ready to receive underground utility service. 546
Council Agenda Report- September 6, 2022 Page 2 of 2
Financial Implications: Funding needed to perform the undergrounding of overhead utilities will be provided through California Public Utilities Commission approved use of Rule 20A; a utility surcharge collected as a part of rate-payer’s monthly utility bills for funding the undergrounding of overhead utilities.
Liberty Utilities is in support of the Johnson Blvd overhead utility undergrounding project. Liberty Utilities will coordinate with all other affected overhead utility companies (ATT and Spectrum-Charter) and will begin engineering design following the formation of the proposed Johnson Blvd Underground Utility District (UUD).
Environmental Considerations: Any environmental permitting necessary to perform utility undergrounding work will be addressed by Liberty Utilities. The City’s proposed Johnson Blvd Complete Streets Project engineering design and permitting will be addressed at a future date as the Project moves up the priority list and funding is programmed to the Project. Environmental permitting for the proposed complete streets project will occur as a part of the planning, engineering, and design work.
Policy Implications: The Johnson Blvd Complete Streets Project fits well within the City’s 2021-2026 Strategic Plan Priorities. Removing overhead utility lines will prepare Johnson Blvd for construction of an important bicycle and pedestrian connector between the Lake Tahoe shoreline/Bijou commercial business district and the Bijou Park area.

Agenda Item #: 22
Agenda Item: Land Exchange with California Tahoe Conservancy Executive Summary: City and California Tahoe Conservancy staff have engaged in discussions over the past few months regarding opportunities to exchange land in a manner that would result in more efficient management of public land assets. Staff proposes to provide parcels to the Conservancy that will benefit from the Conservancy's land management and conservation expertise, and to accept parcels from the Conservancy that will benefit from City stormwater infrastructure and recreation facility management capabilities. Staff is recommending that the City Council declare the City parcels to be exempt surplus land and authorize the City Manager to negotiate an agreement to exchange the specified parcels.
Requested Action / Suggested Motions: Pass a Resolution declaring seven City-owned parcels totaling approximately 181 acres (APNs 025-061-037, 025-081-013, 025-091-012, 031-030-020, 031-030-039, 080-010-013, and 080-020-008) to be exempt surplus property and authorizing the City Manager to negotiate a land exchange agreement for 18 parcels totaling approximately 7.1 acres owned by the California Tahoe Conservancy (APNs 023-686-016, 026-065-016, 027-010-016, 027-010-024, 027-010-029, 027-053-014, 027-073-005, 027-074-006, 027-112-013, 027-112-014, 027-112-015, 027-112-016, 027-112-017, 027-112-024, 027-134-022, 031-173-002, 031-173-004, and 032-090-013).

Report to City Council
Meeting Date: September 6, 2022
Title: Land Exchange with California Tahoe Conservancy
Location: Various parcels in the City and El Dorado County Responsible Staff Member: Hilary Roverud, Director of Development Services Jason Burke, Complete Streets Program Manager
Background: City and Conservancy staff have engaged in discussions over the past few months regarding opportunities to exchange land in a manner that would result in more efficient management of public land assets. The City and Conservancy have a history of coordinating exchanges for this purpose. In 2012 an exchange of lands was executed that has benefited the Harrison Avenue public improvement and area wide stormwater project, stream environment zone restoration in Bijou Meadow, consolidation of Regan Beach parcels, development of the Community Playfields, and construction of a section of the Dennis T.
Machida Memorial Greenway trail from Sierra Boulevard to Al Tahoe Boulevard. More recently, on June 7, 2022, the City Council approved an exchange of TRPA development rights and land coverage with the Conservancy which provided additional public benefits consistent with each agency’s respective goals.
Issue and Discussion: City and Conservancy staff have continued to discuss exchanging properties for management efficiency, as shown in Attachment 02 and listed in Attachment 03.
The following City-owned parcels are recommended for exchange with the Conservancy.
Trout and Cold Creek Parcels
These parcels encompass approximately 177 acres of City-owned land purchased in 1981, located outside of the City limits (APNs 025-061-037, 025-081-013, 025-091-012, 080-010- 013, and 080-020-008). These parcels include areas along Trout Creek and Cold Creek known as the Globin Ponds and Lake Christopher where the City and Conservancy have historically partnered to complete stream environment zone (SEZ) restoration projects.
Link Road Parcels
These parcels include approximately 3.5 acres of land acquired by the City between 1970 and 1992 (APNs 031-030-020 and 031-030-039). The two larger parcels were acquired utilizing grant funds awarded by the California Tahoe Conservancy to remove the auto recycling yard and restore the site. The Conservancy retained the rights to all existing land coverage and commercial floor area (CFA) banked on the property and the larger parcel (031-030-39) was deed restricted as open space. These parcels were evaluated by the City for potential housing development, however, due to the parcels containing SEZ and flood zone areas and having access challenges they have not been pursued for development. 552
Council Agenda Report September 6, 2022 Page 2 of 4
The following parcels are recommended to be accepted from the California Tahoe Conservancy:
Alta Mira and Nearby Lakefront Parcels
This group of three lakefront parcels total approximately 1.4 acres of Conservancy-owned land (APNs 027-010-016, -024, and -029). The Conservancy and State Lands Commission acquired the Alta Mira parcel in 2014 and demolished the existing building to facilitate improved public access and recreation in the El Dorado Beach/Lakeview Commons area. The Conservancy currently leases the State Lands Commission portion of the parcel. Also included are two narrow lakefront parcels to the east, which were acquired by the Conservancy for potential lake access.
Water Quality Parcels
The exchange would potentially also include several scattered parcels that currently contain or are planned for City stormwater infrastructure (APNs 027-073-005, 027-074-006, 027-112-013, -014, -015, -016, -017, -024, 027-134-022, 027-053-014, and 031-173-002 and -004). These parcels are located near Herbert Ave., Osgood Ave., and O’Malley Drive and total approximately 1.4 acres.
Management Efficiency Parcels
The exchange would also potentially include a Conservancy-owned parcel adjacent to the Cityowned Al Tahoe Pioneer Cemetery parcel, a Conservancy-owned parcel adjacent to a Cityowned vacant parcel on Tahoe Island Drive and a Conservancy-owned parcel adjacent to the Lake Tahoe Airport (APNs 026-065-016, 032-090-013, and 023-686-016). These parcels would benefit from consolidated management by the City.
Attachment 03 includes a parcel list containing more detailed property characteristics. In general, the City proposes to provide parcels to the Conservancy that will benefit from the land management and conservation expertise of the Conservancy. Parcels that the Conservancy proposes to provide to the City will benefit from City stormwater infrastructure and recreation facility management capabilities.
Several of the proposed exchange parcels contain nominal amounts of banked TRPA commodities and land coverage. In general, City and Conservancy staff are recommending that the exchange of these parcels would include the banked and underlying potential rights associated with each of these parcels. However, the Lake Christopher parcel contains a significant amount of banked 1b hard coverage and the Alta Mira and Connolley Beach parcels contain banked existing Residential Units of Use, Commercial Floor Area, and Sewer Units which, as a result of further negotiations, may be retained by the agency currently in possession of those parcels.
All of the City parcels included in this potential exchange are listed as either “surplus” or “exempt surplus” in the City’s Surplus Land Inventory. The Surplus Land Act provides an exemption for land declared exempt by the local agency and exchanged with another local, state, or federal agency for the transferee agency’s use. Adoption of the resolution in 553
Council Agenda Report September 6, 2022 Page 3 of 4
Attachment 04 would declare all of the parcels as “exempt surplus” because they are being exchanged with a state agency for the agency’s use.
City and Conservancy staff continue to research the history, title and condition of these properties and are seeking authorization to negotiate an agreement to exchange these properties. If approved by the City Council, the Conservancy Board will also consider these actions at their September 15th meeting.
Financial Implications: Appraisals the determine market value of each parcel are not proposed to be conducted as part of this exchange. The purpose of the exchange is to increase public land management efficiencies. City maintenance and management responsibilities will shift from currently owned parcels that require significant vegetation and habitat management outside of City limits to newly acquired parcels that require additional stormwater infrastructure and recreation facility maintenance within the City boundary.
Environmental Considerations: The proposed exchange of land and TRPA development rights does not constitute an “approval” of a “project” pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Sections 15004 and 15352 because it does not commit the agency to a definite course of action in regard to a project to be carried out. The exchange of land for improved management efficiency purposes that does not involve a change to, or an intensification of, the existing use or purpose is not a “project” defined by CEQA (section 15378[a]).
Policy Implications: The recommended amendments are consistent with the City General Plan and Strategic Plan, specifically the following policies:
General Plan Policy LU‐10.3: Vacant Open Space Parcel Exchange The City shall work with the California Tahoe Conservancy (CTC) and other State and Federal agencies to exchange publicly‐owned vacant open space parcels in existing residential subdivisions for vacant parcels in other parts of the Lake Tahoe Basin as a means of consolidating open space and developing underused sites in existing neighborhoods.
General Plan Policy LU‐10.1: Inter‐Agency Coordination
The City shall coordinate with all regional, State, and Federal agencies and special districts to ensure that their planning efforts within the city limits are consistent with the City of South Lake Tahoe's General Plan.
General Plan Policy NCR‐3.11: Natural Habitat and Open Space Management The City shall encourage and support public agencies formed to acquire and manage important natural habitat areas, and other open space lands.
General Plan Policy ED‐1.2: Economic and Environmental
Balance: The City shall strive to maintain a balance between economic health and environmental health through careful and efficient planning.
Strategic Plan Strategy 5.4: Local Control
Explore ways to develop more local control for the City and residents to make 5.4 decisions about the community.
Action Item 3: Develop a strategy to improve the way the City coordinates with Basin entities. 554

Resolution 2022-XXX
Adopted by the City of South Lake Tahoe City Council
September 6, 2022
Declaring Seven City-Owned Parcels Totaling Approximately 181 Acres to be Exempt Surplus Property and Authorizing the City Manager to Negotiate a Land Exchange Agreement with the California Tahoe Conservancy
BACKGROUND
A. The City of South Lake Tahoe owns seven parcels totaling approximately 181 acres of property (Assessor’s Parcel Numbers 025-062-037, 025-081-013, 025-091-012, 031-030- 020, 031-030-039, 080-010-013, and 080-020-008) that are not needed for City purposes (the “Subject Property”) and which the City desires to exchange for 18 parcels totaling approximately 7.1 acres owned by the California Tahoe Conservancy (Assessor’s Parcel Numbers 023-686-016, 026-065-016, 027-010-016, 027-010-024, 027-010-029, 027-053- 014, 027-073-005, 027-074-006, 027-112-013, 027-112-014, 027-112-015, 027-112-016, 027-112-017, 027-112-024, 027-134-022, 031-173-002, 031-173-004, and 032-090-013) (the "CTC Properties”).
B. 177 of the acres owned by the City are located along Trout Creek and Cold Creek and are outside City limits in unincorporated El Dorado County. These parcels (APNs 025-061-037, 025-081-013, 025-091-012, 080-010-013, and 080-020-008) contain stream environment zone (SEZ) restoration projects and are not needed for City purposes.
C. 3.5 of the acres owned by the City (APNs 031-030-020 and 031-030-039), located on Link Road, were acquired with grant funds awarded by the California Tahoe Conservancy to restore the site, are deed-restricted as open space, and are not needed for City purposes.
D. The California Tahoe Conservancy-owned Alta Mira and nearby lakefront parcels totaling approximately 1.4 acres (APNs 027-010-016, -024, and -029) were acquired for public access to Lake Tahoe, and the City intends to continue to use them for this purpose.
E. Twelve California Tahoe Conservancy-owned parcels totaling approximately 1.4 acres (APNs 027-073-005, 027-074-006, 027-112-013, -014, -015, -016, -017, -024, 027-134- 022, 027-053-014, and 031-173-002 and -004) either currently contain or are planned for City stormwater infrastructure, and the transfer of these parcels to the City will allow the City to control these parcels for water quality purposes.
F. Three California Tahoe Conservancy-owned parcels are located adjacent to the City-owned Al Tahoe Pioneer Cemetery, a City-owned vacant parcel on Tahoe Island Drive, and the Lake Tahoe Airport, and the transfer of these parcels to the City would allow for consolidated management by the City.
BASED ON THE FACTS SET FORTH IN THE BACKGROUND, BE IT RESOLVED, that the City Council of the City of South Lake Tahoe:
558
Resolution 2022-XXX September 6, 2022 Page 2 of 2
1. Finds and declares that the Subject Property the City is transferring to the California Tahoe Conservancy in exchange for the CTC Properties, is exempt surplus property under Government Code section 54220 et seq. and the Surplus Land Act Guideline dated April 2021 (“SLA Guidelines”), for the following reasons:
a. Pursuant to SLA Guidelines section 103(b)(3)(C), the City is exchanging property for other property necessary for the City’s use.
b. Pursuant to SLA Guidelines section 103(b)(3)(D), the City is transferring property to another public agency, the California Tahoe Conservancy, for the California Tahoe Conservancy’s use.
2. Finds and determines that the proposed exchange of land and TRPA development rights associated with that land does not constitute “approval” of a “project” pursuant to California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines sections 15004 and 15352 because it does not commit the agency to a definite course of action in regard to a project to be carried out, and the exchange of land for improved management efficiency purposes that does not involve a change to, or an intensification of, the existing use or purpose is not a “project” under CEQA Guidelines section 15378(a).
3. Authorizes the City Manager to negotiate an agreement with the California Tahoe Conservancy to exchange the Subject Property for the CTC Properties.

City of South Lake Tahoe
Report to City Council
Meeting Date: September 6, 2022
Title: New Financial Policy- Donation, Sponsorship, and Naming Rights Policy.
Location: Citywide
Responsible Staff Member: Lori Marino, Principal Management Analyst (530) 542- 7410 Background: The City Council adopted the City of South Lake Tahoe Comprehensive Financial Policies in July 2005. Each year the policies are reviewed, and necessary amendments, or new policies are presented to the City Council for adoption.
Issue and Discussion: The City recognizes there is benefit in partnering with businesses, organizations, individuals, and community members to fund City programs, events, facilities, assets, and services. Contributions from outside sources of cash, in-kind services, labor, equipment, or supplies can reduce direct expenses and aid in garnering public support as well as provide additional leverage for other types of revenues.
The Donation, Sponsorship, and Naming Rights Policy is intended to establish a process for soliciting and accepting contributions, donations, sponsorships and recognizing donors in a manner consistent with Government Accounting Standards as well as the City’s values, priorities, and the Strategic Plan. This policy is necessary to determine eligible types of contributions, outline restrictions, and establish thresholds for approvals and acceptance in accordance with Federal, State, and IRS laws and guidelines. It also provides an avenue to work with non-profits whose missions support the City’s strategic goals.
Financial Implications: City Code and Financial Policies that are up to date with current laws, governmental accounting standards and compliance are essential to the prudent financial management of the City’s assets and resources. Creation of this policy to establish guidelines for donations, sponsorships, and naming rights can generate revenue to fund new and existing facilities, project, programs, and activities for the benefit of the City and its residents.
Environmental Considerations: Addition of a new financial policy is exempt from CEQA under State CEQA Guidelines Section 15061(b)(3) (Common Sense Exemption). Section 15061(b)(3) of the CEQA Guidelines states that an activity is covered by the commonsense exemption that CEQA only applies to projects that have the potential for causing a significant effect on the environment.
Where it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the activity in question may have a significant effect on the environment, the activity is not subject to CEQA review.
Policy Implications: The overall impact of financial policies is to strengthen and preserve the City’s financial position and fiscal health as well as maintain the highest level of ethics in the stewardship of public funds.

Donation, Sponsorship, and Naming Rights Policy
PURPOSE
The purpose of this policy is to establish a formal process for acceptance and documentation of donations and sponsorships made to the City. This policy also establishes the standards for City officials and Department Directors regarding the acceptance of donations and/or sponsorships as well as naming rights proposed through sponsorships during the performance of City business.
This policy provides guidelines for accepting donations and sponsorships in a responsible, transparent, and accountable manner consistent with City strategic goals.
Uniform criteria and procedures guide the review and acceptance of such donations and sponsorships and confirm the City has relevant and adequate resources to administer such donations, and ensures the City appropriately records the contribution and acknowledges the generosity of the donor.
DEFINITIONS
Donations may be offered in the form of cash, real or personal property, equipment, inkind goods or services, or any other asset the City has agreed to accept for which the donor has not received any payment, goods, or services in return.
Designated or Restricted Donations mean those donations designated at donor request for a particular City department, location, project, or purpose, limiting use at the request of the donor.
Undesignated donations mean those donations that are given to the City for an unspecified use.
Sponsorships are cash or in-kind products and services offered by sponsors with an expectation that an obligation is created. The recipient (City of South Lake Tahoe) is obliged to return something of value to the sponsor. The value is typically public recognition and publicity or advertising highlighting the contribution of the sponsor and or the sponsor’s name, logo, message, products, or services. Sponsors must be businesses, non-profit groups, or individuals that promote mutually beneficial relationships for the City and whose purpose is consistent with the City’s values, priorities, and Strategic Plan. Sponsorship under this policy does not include paid commercial advertising.
563
2 City of SLT Financial Polices- Donation, Sponsporship, Naming Rights September 2022 Naming Rights as it pertains to this policy, shall mean a type of sponsorship in which a third party purchases the exclusive right to name a property, component of property, facility, or city asset as described herein. All Naming Right proposals must be approved by City Council.
DONATIONS
This Council Policy is intended to guide the manner in which City staff accepts donations on behalf of the City and will consider public trust and compliance with all applicable laws and regulations when accepting donations.
It is the intent of the City to reflect the accurate value of donations. Only City officials authorized by this policy may accept donations. This policy applies to all City departments and funds, as well as all types of donations authorized by this policy.
The City has no obligation to accept any donation proposed by a donor until donations are approved in the manner set forth in this policy. All donations will be evaluated by the City prior to acceptance to determine whether the donation is in the City’s best interest and is consistent with strategic plan, applicable City laws, policies, ordinances, and resolutions. The City does not provide legal, accounting, taxation, or other professional advice to donors. Each donor is responsible for ensuring the proposed donation meets the donor’s charitable, financial, and/or estate planning goals. Prior to acceptance the City must determine whether an expenditure of City funds, either a direct outlay or use of City resources and materials, is associated or required by acceptance of the donation.
The donation must be used for official City business, and not for political activities or other personal business.
A donor may restrict a donation for a particular City department, location or purpose, but not designate the City official who may use the donation. The City shall comply with all applicable laws and regulations of the Internal Revenue Service regarding the acceptance of donations.
