Report to City Council
Meeting Date: February 13, 2024
Title: Law Enforcement Specialized Unit Grant – Domestic Violence Programs Location: Citywide
Responsible Staff Member: Jeff Roberson, Police Lieutenant (530) 542-6521 Background:
Since 2003, the South Lake Tahoe Police Department has worked in partnership with Live Violence Free to supplement the investigation of, and response to domestic violence incidents, advocate for involved parties, educate the community and law enforcement on domestic violence issues, and provide counselling services to victims and perpetrators.
The Law Enforcement Specialized Unit program plays a vital role in the Police Department’s ability to effectively protect victims of domestic violence and prosecute the offenders. Domestic violence continues to be a significant issue in our community and has devastating long-term effects on victims and families.
For 2024, the South Lake Tahoe Police Department will receive a grant from the California Office of Emergency Services in the amount up to $203,142.00. We have received this grant annually since 2017.
This 2024 Law Enforcement Specialized Unit grant will fund $79,566 toward the salary of one SLTPD Detective. The grant award will provide an additional $13,310 to fund overtime expenses for the Joint Dispatch Center for fielding phone calls related to domestic violence. The grant award will also provide $3,000 to fund the Principal Management Analyst hours for completing grant related reports.

Agenda Item #:3
Agenda Item: Application to Federal Emergency Management Agency for Assistance to Firefighters Grant
Executive Summary: South Lake Tahoe Fire Rescue is seeking to apply for grant monies to replace and upgrade our Self Contained Breathing Apparatus (SCBA) fleet to modern safety standards. These monies are potentially available through FEMA and the Assistance to Firefighter's Grant. Our current inventory of SCBA is over ten years old. It is strongly encouraged industry wide to replace SCBA at the ten year mark to avoid failures in the field with outdated equipment. Staff is requesting direction from City Council to move forward with the grant application process. A 10% match is required; however, the fire department has budget to cover the cost. There will be no funds requested from the general fund.
Requested Action / Suggested Motions: Pass a Resolution authorizing the Fire Chief to apply for an Assistance to Firefighters Grant in the amount of $687,245 for Self Contained Breathing Apparatus replacement and upgrade.
Responsible Staff Member: Jim Drennan, Fire Chief, and Tom Jones, Engineer Reviewed and Approved By: Susan Blankenship, City Clerk Olga Tikhomirova, Director of Finance Heather Stroud, City Attorney

Report to City Council
Meeting Date: February 13, 2024
Title: Grant application to Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) through the Assistance to Firefighter’s Grant (AFG) program in the amount of $687,245 for SCBA Equipment.
Location: Fire Department
Responsible Staff Member: Jim Drennan, Fire Chief (530) 542-6152, and Tom Jones, Engineer (530) 542-6161
Background: The primary goal of the Assistance to Firefighters Grant (AFG) is to meet the firefighting and emergency response needs of fire departments and non-affiliated emergency medical service organizations. Since 2001, AFG has helped firefighters and other first responders obtain critically needed equipment, protective gear, emergency vehicles, training, and other resources necessary for protecting the public and emergency personnel from fire and related hazards.
On January 29, 2024, the FY 2023 AFG application opened and is expected to run through March 8, 2024.
South Lake Tahoe Fire Rescue would like to submit an application in the amount of $687,245 for SelfContained Breathing Apparatus (SCBA) equipment to maintain compliance of national safety standards as outlined in SFPA 1851 and NFPA 1500. Currently, the fleet of SCBA and masks are 10 years old.
Considering 10 years of front line firefighting operations; each year generating a 5.6% increase in call volume and training, the fleet and their internal components are nearing expiration and unreliability. Simply stated they are nearing obsolescence.
Issue and Discussion: South Lake Tahoe Fire Rescue is seeking funding to protect and preserve the health and safety of its firefighters by upgrading and replacing its Self-Contained Breathing Apparatus (SCBA) fleet to the most up to date technology and safety standards. Items requested consist of SCBA air packs, masks, air cylinders, RIT (Rapid Intervention Team) packs and breathing air compressor for a total of $687,245. Firefighters outfitted with new air packs and cylinders are equipped with not only a more reliable breathing system but one that is lighter on their backs as well. Lighter weight means they are less prone to fatigue and injury, resulting in fewer workers compensation claims and increased efficiency to accomplish the mission of SLTFR.
Financial Implications: The application submitted will be in the amount of $687,245 to fund the following estimated costs:
- 45 SCBA air packs ($8,365.00 ea.) = $376,425.00
- 45 Masks ($1,553.00 ea) = $69,885.00
- 60 cylinders ($1,504.00 ea) = $90,240.00
- 4 RIT bags ($3,850.00 ea) = $15,400.00
- 1 Air Compressor unit = $80,000
Estimated Tax at 8.75% = $55,295 Total = $687,245.00
There is a 10% match requirement in the amount of $68,725. Matching funds will be provided from account number 100 02240 44203 following a requested transfer from Fire Safety Sales Tax Prop 172 (Fund 222). 74 Council Agenda Report February 13, 2024 Page 2 of 2
The one half-cent sales tax imposed by Prop 172 is collected by the California Department of Tax and Fee Administration (CDTFA) and apportioned to each county based on its proportionate share of state-wide taxable sales tax in the preceding calendar year. Each county then allocates it to the county and cities within the county. The City records this revenue in a dedicated fund Fire Safety Sales Tax (Fund 222). The adopted FY 23/24 Fire Safety Sales Tax account has an unallocated budgeted net revenue of $493,500. No monies are being requested from the General Fund at this time.
Training SLTFR staff to utilize the new equipment can be quickly achieved in-house by the department’s certified SCBA technician.
Upon award, staff will return to City Council for acceptance of the award and appropriation of awarded grant funds and necessary matching funds.
Environmental Considerations: There are no noted environmental considerations.
Policy Implications: Per Financial Management – Grant Funding and Compliance Policy approved by City Council on Sept. 8, 2020; section 2.3 City Council Approval to Apply: City Council approval to apply is required for ALL Grant Applications. A detailed staff report and a resolution (if required) should be brought forth to City Council for Council approval/adoption.

Agenda Item #:4
Agenda Item: Grant of $1,000,000 from California Tahoe Conservancy for the Tahoe Valley Stormwater & Greenbelt Improvement Project
Executive Summary: Based on the results of community participation and planning enabled under the Regional Plan Town-Center goals, City Council adopted the Tahoe Valley Area Plan on June 2, 2015, which includes the Tahoe Valley Stormwater and Greenbelt Improvement Project (Project) as a vital community and environmental improvement project. Due to the size and diversity of the overall project, the City split the project into two phases to secure funding from a variety of eligible and applicable funding sources. 1. Phase 1 consists of stormwater and water quality improvement work within the Bonanza neighborhood and downstream of James Avenue at 3rd Street to Tahoe Keys Blvd. 2. Phase 2 consists of the Central Greenbelt Area (behind the Crossings) spanning between Emerald Bay Road at B Street down to Highway 50 at 4th Street. Public Works submitted a grant application to the Conservancy on March 3, 2023, for Phase 2 Project construction funding. On May 16, 2023, City Council ratified the submission of the grant application for up to $3.9 million, requesting the entire Phase 2 construction shortfall. At the June 2023 Conservancy Board meeting, the Board awarded a $1,000,000 implementation grant to the City to assist with funding construction of Phase 2 of the Project.
Requested Action / Suggested Motions: Pass a Resolution accepting and appropriating California Tahoe Conservancy Grant Funding for the Tahoe Valley Stormwater & Greenbelt Improvement Project in an amount of $1,000,000.

Report to City Council
Meeting Date: February 13, 2024
Title: Accept and Appropriate California Tahoe Conservancy Grant Funding for the Tahoe Valley Stormwater & Greenbelt Improvement Project ($1,000,000) Location: Tahoe Valley drainage watershed, inclusive to the “Greenbelt” area located behind The Crossing (AKA “factory stores”) at the South Y and the drainage watershed extending between west F Street down to Tahoe Keys Blvd (see Attachment 02 - Project Location Map) Responsible Staff Members: Stan Hill, Engineering Manager (530) 542-6039 Jason Burke, Complete Streets Program Manager (530) 542-6038 Brianna Greenlaw, Associate Civil Engineer (530) 542-6042 Background: Based on the results of community participation, visioning and planning enabled under the Regional Plan Town-Center goals, City Council adopted the Tahoe Valley Area Plan on June 2, 2015, which includes the Tahoe Valley Stormwater and Greenbelt Improvement Project (Project) as a vital community and environmental improvement project. Based on feedback from the public received during the Area Plan process, and subsequent design meetings and public survey for the Greenbelt area, the Project has been developed to provide the following benefits requested by the community and stakeholders:
Improved connectivity for bicyclists and pedestrians between neighborhoods and Town Center amenities, including bridges over flooded portions of the trails; Safety lighting that is dark sky compatible and improves safety for active transportation; Area-wide stormwater treatment compliance to facilitate commercial and attainable housing development on Area Plan Town-Center parcels;
Public gathering space for public art and educational signage to provide enhanced amenities for increased residential development in and around the Town-Center; New community park improvements and features to serve residents and visitors; New bicycle and pedestrian path connections to the Y area and public gathering space to facilitate private investment on adjacent commercial and residential properties; Expanded floodplain and Stream Environment Zone (SEZ) riparian habitat to provide for increased climate resiliency; and
Natural treatment, permeable pavements, and source control to reduce sediment and nutrients carried in urban stormwater runoff, as required by the Lake Tahoe Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL) and associated Municipal Stormwater Permit.
Due to the size and diversity of the overall project, the City split it into two phases to secure funding from a variety of eligible and applicable funding sources.
1. Phase 1 consists of stormwater and water quality improvement work within the Bonanza neighborhood and downstream of James Avenue at 3rd Street to Tahoe Keys Blvd.
2. Phase 2 consists of the Central Greenbelt Area (behind the Crossings) spanning between Emerald Bay Road at B Street down to Highway 50 at 4th Street.
79 Council Agenda Report February 13, 2024 Page 2 of 3
Issue and Discussion: On September 6, 2022, City Council accepted an implementation grant from the State Water Resources Control Board (SWRCB) for the Tahoe Valley Stormwater and Greenbelt Improvement Project. The SWRCB funding and the City’s local match contribution fully funded Phase 1 of the Project. Over the past year, Public Works has diligently pursued the balance of needed construction funding to complete construction of Phase 2.
The California Tahoe Conservancy (Conservancy) has worked closely with Public Works over the past several years to develop the Project. The Conservancy has provided engineering design and construction funding through Proposition 1 and Proposition 68 grant funding support. This most recent Conservancy grant funding will assist with adding to the Phase 2 construction budget and moving the Project closer to the funding goal.
Public Works submitted a grant application to the Conservancy on March 3, 2023, for Phase 2 construction funding. On May 16, 2023, City Council ratified the submission of the grant application for up to $3.9 million, requesting the entire Phase 2 construction shortfall (Resolution #2023-041). At the June 2023 Conservancy Board meeting, the Board awarded a $1,000,000 implementation grant to the City to assist with funding construction of Phase 2 of the Project. The City and the Conservancy staff have agreed to move forward with grant agreement to allow the City to accept the construction grant funding and appropriate the funding to the Project.
Financial Implications: The addition of $1,000,000 to the Project takes the City a step closer to securing enough funding to construct Phase 2 of the project. The $1,000,000 Conservancy grant does not require a local match contribution. Following this Conservancy grant award, Phase 2 of the Project will remain approximately $3 million underfunded. Public Works will continue to search for grant funding over the next few months in the interest of acquiring funding to resolve the Phase 2 construction budget shortfall.
The Engineer’s Estimate for Phase 2 of the Project (including 10% construction contingency) is approximately $7,610,253. Funding acquired to date for construction of Phase 2 of the Project is provided within Table 1.
Table 1 – Phase 2 Project Construction Funding
Funding Source Funding Amount
State Water Resources Control Board, Proposition 1 Implementation Grant $2,353,906 City Local Match Contribution to SWRCB Implementation Grant $249,542 TRPA SEZ and Water Quality Mitigation Funding $74,373
TRPA - Lake Tahoe Restoration Act Grant Program $725,000 City Local Match Contribution to Lake Tahoe Restoration Act Grant Program $145,000 Franchise Utilities - Estimated Reimbursements for Utility Relocations $13,500 California Tahoe Conservancy Implementation Grant $1,000,000 Total Secured Phase 2 Construction Funding: $4,561,321
80 Council Agenda Report February 13, 2024 Page 3 of 3
Given the Engineer’s Estimate of $7,610,253 and secured construction funding to date of $4,561,321, the Phase 2 construction shortfall is approximately $3 million.
The City’s local match contribution for phase 2 of the Project shown in the chart above was required for the SWRCB Prop 1 Grant and the TRPA Lake Tahoe Restoration Act Grant. The amount of local match for each grant is shown in Table 1. The match consists of General Fund Grant Match Set Aside funds (Resolution #2022-099 and #2023-019).
Environmental Considerations: The Planning Commission adopted the CEQA and Mitigated Negative Declaration for the Tahoe Valley Stormwater and Greenbelt Improvement Project on May 9, 2019, SCH# 20190292152. The Project TRPA and Lahontan permitting is completed and ready for construction of the Project improvements.
Policy Implications: Completing project improvements will assist with meeting the sediment and nutrient reductions mandated by the Lake Tahoe Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL) program. Fulfilling mandated TMDL reduction goals will assist with maximizing residential housing allocations under TRPA Code section
50.5.2.E.2 (Distribution and Administration of Residential Allocations – TMDL Implementation). The Project advances the City Council Strategic Priorities and Goals, specifically:
Action Item 1.4 (Transportation) to prioritize implementation of mixed-use recreational trails and Class 1 bike trails and closing gaps in the bicycle trail system. Action Item 2.3 (Connectivity) to facilitate implementation of trail infrastructure prioritizing the connection of bicycle and walking trails, from neighborhoods near the Greenbelt to the South Y commercial area and beyond.
Action Item 5.3 (Infrastructure and Maintenance) by actively seeking funding to develop sustainable infrastructure projects, based on the prioritized capital improvement project list.
The Project will also provide greenhouse gas reduction benefits, providing progress on Action #WB-1 of the 2020 Climate Action Plan: Improve bicycle and pedestrian networks. $2,353,906 , 31%

Agenda Item #:5
Agenda Item: Community Development Block Grant Program Coronavirus Response Allocation of Remaining Funding to Tahoe Coalition for the Homeless for Bear's Den Inn Rehabilitation in an Increased Amount Not to Exceed $1,169,124.88
Executive Summary: On November 15, 2023, the California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) informed current CDBG-CV grantees that a small amount of unclaimed funding is available for construction projects that have experienced unanticipated cost increases that can be substantiated and documented. On January 9, 2024, City Council approved Resolution 2024-005 approving an amendment to the Standard Agreement issued under the 2020 Community Development Block Grant Program Coronavirus Response (CDBG-CV) to request additional funding in the amount of $632,040. This amount which was the required cap by HCD of up to a 25 percent increase to their award resulting in a maximum award of 125 percent of their original application. However, on January 8th, staff received an email that HCD changed the stipulations to allow current CDBG-CV 2/3 construction project grantees to request all funding needed to fill project gaps with no maximum award. This action is consistent with the updated HCD stipulations and increases the potential funding to be provided to TCH through the subrecipient agreement.
Requested Action / Suggested Motions: 1) Pass a Resolution amending the Standard Agreement issued under the 2020 Community Development Block Grant Program Coronavirus Response to add an amount not to exceed $1,169,124.88, for a total amount not to exceed $1,674,756.88; and 2) Pass a Motion authorizing and directing the City Manager to execute revised Amendment No. 2 to the Subrecipient Agreement between the City of South Lake Tahoe and Tahoe Coalition for the Homeless for any additional funds allocated from the 2020 Coronavirus Response Round 2 & 3, in an amount not to exceed $1,169,124.88.

Report to City Council
Meeting Date: February 13, 2024
Title: Community Development Block Grant Program Coronavirus Response Allocation of Remaining Funding for Tahoe Coalition for the Homeless Bears Den Inn Rehabilitation Location: 2250 Lake Tahoe Blvd (Bear’s Den Inn)
Responsible Staff Members: Jessica Wackenhut Lomeli, Housing Manager Background: The California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) receives funding from the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) for the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Program and allocates funds to CDBG eligible non-entitlement jurisdictions (such as City of South Lake Tahoe). Authorized by the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act, approximately $71.2 million in CDBG coronavirus response rounds 2 and 3 (CDBG-CV 2/3) federal funds has been allocated to eligible jurisdictions in California to perform activities related to COVID-19 response and recovery.
On April 20, 2021 the City Council adopted Resolution 2021-021 authorizing an application for CDBG CV 2/3 funding in the amount of $505,632 for rehabilitation work on the Bears Den Inn Property (2250 Lake Tahoe Blvd) and to execute the Standard Agreement. The Bears Den Inn property was purchased by the Tahoe Coalition for the Homeless (TCH) with State of California Project Homekey Program funds to provide housing for persons experiencing or at risk of homelessness. Subsequently, the City Council adoption of Resolution 2022-003 on January 4, 2022, authorizing the Subrecipient Agreement with Tahoe Coalition for the Homeless to administer funding and execute the scope of work for rehabilitation of the Bears Den Inn property (2250 Lake Tahoe Blvd). On June 20, 2023, Amendment Number 1 was made to the Subrecipient Agreement between the City of South Lake Tahoe and Tahoe Coalition for the Homeless to extend the time of performance to October 1, 2024.
On November 15, 2023, HCD informed current CDBG-CV grantees that a small amount of unclaimed funding is available for construction projects that have experienced unanticipated cost increases that can be substantiated and documented. Funding is not guaranteed but unclaimed funds will be reallocated to construction projects per the following priorities:
1. Tribal awards for construction projects including CDBG-CV 2/3 Tribal Set-Aside and Homekey awards made to Tribes with documented increased project costs and demonstrated financial gap;
2. Non-Tribal Homekey construction projects with documented increased project cost and demonstrated financial gap;
3. All other CDBG-CV construction projects with documented increased project cost and demonstrated financial gap.

Issue and Discussion: On January 9, 2024, City Council approved Resolution 2024-005 approving an amendment to the Standard Agreement issued under the 2020 Community Development Block Grant Program Coronavirus Response (CDBG-CV) to request additional funding in the amount of $632,040. This amount which was the required cap by HCD of up to a 25 percent increase to their award resulting in a maximum award of 125 percent of their original application. However, on January 8th, staff received an email that HCD changed the stipulations to allow current CDBG-CV 2/3 construction project grantees to request all funding needed to fill project gaps with no maximum award. The staff report from January 9th is attached for the full context on this Resolution (Attachment 6).
The revised Scope of Remaining Work for full rehabilitation of the Bear’s Den (Attachment 3) showing the documentation of new, increased project costs and the gap in CDBG funds being requested since the original application submitted for this program and the bids for the Scope of Remaining Work supporting the increased costs are attached (Attachment 4). The total amount requested is $1,169,124.88 to complete the rehabilitation of the Bear’s Den property. Grantees with qualifying CDBG-CV construction projects may request this entire amount as of January 8th, 2024.
It is recommended that the City Council adopt a Resolution approving an amendment to the Standard Agreement issued under the 2020 Community Development Block Grant Program Coronavirus Response (CDBG-CV). It is also recommended that the City Council adopt an amendment (Amendment #2) to the Subrecipient Agreement between City of South Lake Tahoe and Tahoe Coalition for the Homeless for any additional funds allocated from the 2020 Community Development Block Grant Program – Coronavirus Response Round 2 & 3 authorized by Resolution 2022-003.
Financial Implications: The total grant funds spent by TCH are $145,760.80, with a remaining balance of $349,871.20. It is unknown at this time the total amount that HCD will release in unencumbered CDBG-CV funds to grantees with active CDBG-CV Standard Agreements and how much will be awarded to the City.
Environmental Considerations: The proposed project that would use grant funds is categorically exempt from environmental review under CEQA Guidelines Section 15301, Existing Facilities, which exempts “the operation, repair, maintenance, permitting, leasing, licensing, or minor alteration of existing public or private structures, facilities, mechanical equipment, or topographical features, involving negligible or no expansion of existing or former use” including “restoration or rehabilitation of deteriorated or damaged structures, facilities, or mechanical equipment to meet current standards of public health and safety, unless it is determined that the damage was substantial and resulted from an environmental hazard such as earthquake, landslide, or flood.”
The project qualifies for a National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) Categorical Exclusion pursuant to 24 CFR 58.35(a). The City completed required documentation and public noticing in compliance with NEPA as part of the grant application.
Policy Implications: This action would be consistent with an existing Memorandum of Understanding between the City and TCH where both parties agreed to seek to identify opportunities to develop shared strategies to prevent and reduce homelessness experienced by 90 Council Agenda Report February 13, 2024 Page 3 of 3
South Lake Tahoe residents and committed to jointly reviewing funding opportunities available to bring financial resources to our community which serve the priorities of the City.
The recommended action is also consistent with the following adopted policies and programs:
City Strategic Plan
Action Item 1.3.6 Continue to work with the Tahoe Coalition for the Homeless to rehabilitate properties purchased through Project Homekey.
Action Item 3.1.3 Work with local partners to support permanent supportive housing/transitional homeless shelter resources and provide more services to mitigate existing homeless camps.
City General Plan Housing Element
Policy 1-1 The City shall adopt programs, ordinances, incentives, land use plans and other regulatory mechanisms that provide opportunities for the private sector to address the housing needs of citizens of all economic levels.
Policy 4-2 The City shall work with surrounding jurisdictions to address the causes of homelessness and the needs of transient homeless persons on a regional basis. The City shall support TCH and El Dorado County Community Services and in its countywide programs address the needs of homeless persons.
Policy 4-4 The City shall provide priority permit processing of projects that are targeted toward special-needs groups, such as seniors, the disabled (including the developmentally disabled), and the homeless, including priority for building plan check, subdivision map review, improvement plans for roadways and utilities, and environmental impact analysis. 91 CDBG-CV Allocation of

I got your contact information from Don Kostecki at Western Paving. He did a striping job with you on the parking spaces in the Keys.
We’d like to get an estimate from you on removing the existing asphalt, repaving, installing ADA parking spaces, and BMPs. See the attached plans. We plan to do the work in 2024.
The work needs bid at prevailing wage.
And, is there any way you could get a verbal or written estimate to me by Tuesday? I know that’s asking a lot. I appreciate anything you can do to assist us.

CLARIFICATIONS: For Lake Tahoe, a heat pump with back-up electric heat would be ideal. In colder climates, a heat pump’s heating capacity diminishes when the external temperature drops. The 2234 model is for colder climate applications. A defrost heating cable is recommended as it may ensure the condensate will not freeze in the drain pan when it is very cold during the winter months in Tahoe.

Authorized by the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act, approximately $71.2 million in CDBG coronavirus response rounds 2 and 3 (CDBG-CV 2/3) federal funds has been allocated to eligible jurisdictions in California to perform activities related to COVID-19 response and recovery.
On April 20, 2021 the City Council adopted Resolution 2021-021 authorizing an application for CDBG CV 2/3 funding in the amount of $505,632 for rehabilitation work on the Bears Den Inn Property (2250 Lake Tahoe Blvd) and to execute the Standard Agreement. The Bears Den Inn property was purchased by the Tahoe Coalition for the Homeless (TCH) with State of California Project Homekey Program funds to provide housing for persons experiencing or at risk of homelessness. Subsequently, the City Council adoption of Resolution 2022-003 on January 4, 2022, authorizing the Subrecipient Agreement with Tahoe Coalition for the Homeless to administer funding and execute the scope of work for rehabilitation of the Bears Den Inn property (2250 Lake Tahoe Blvd). On June 20, 2023, Amendment Number 1 was made to the Subrecipient Agreement between the City of South Lake Tahoe and Tahoe Coalition for the Homeless to extend the time of performance to October 1, 2024.
Issue and Discussion: On November 15, 2023, HCD informed current CDBG-CV grantees that a small amount of unclaimed funding is available for construction projects that have experienced unanticipated cost increases that can be substantiated and documented. Funding is not guaranteed but unclaimed funds will be reallocated to construction projects per the following priorities:
1. Tribal awards for construction projects including CDBG-CV 2/3 Tribal Set-Aside and Homekey awards made to Tribes with documented increased project costs and demonstrated financial gap;
2. Non-Tribal Homekey construction projects with documented increased project cost and demonstrated financial gap;
3. All other CDBG-CV construction projects with documented increased project cost and demonstrated financial gap.
140
Council Agenda Report January 9, 2024 Page 2 of 3
TCH has encountered several challenges that have impacted the original scope of work, which include various unforeseen challenges and damage related to property upgrades and lack of labor that qualify for participation in a federally funded rehabilitation grant. These issues coupled with the relative the small scale of the project have made it challenging to secure a qualified contractor.
Additionally, like many other properties this past winter, the project experienced extensive damage to the existing circa 1960s galvanized plumbing system, damage to the exterior paint, and extensive issues to the already aging asphalt in the parking lot due to freeze and thaw cycles. The bids received in 2022 and 2023 are close to double the cost estimates for the original scope of work in addition to the extensive work discovered through initial rehabilitation work. Attachment 4 contains the full list of remaining work for full rehabilitation with the cost according to bids received (Attachment 5).
As such, TCH has submitted a revised Scope of Remaining Work for full rehabilitation of the Bear’s Den (Attachment 4) showing the documentation of new, increased project costs and the gap in CDBG funds being requested since the original application submitted for this program.
Grantees with qualifying CDBG-CV construction projects may request up to a 25 percent increase to their award resulting in a maximum award of 125 percent of their original application.
It is recommended that the City Council adopt a Resolution approving an amendment to the Standard Agreement issued under the 2020 Community Development Block Grant Program Coronavirus Response (CDBG-CV). It is also recommended that the City Council adopt an amendment (Amendment #2) to the Subrecipient Agreement between City of South Lake Tahoe and Tahoe Coalition for the Homeless for any additional funds allocated from the 2020 Community Development Block Grant Program – Coronavirus Response Round 2 & 3 authorized by Resolution 2022-003.
Financial Implications: The total grant funds spent by TCH are $109,780.33 with a remaining balance of $385,851.67. The total amount that HCD will release in unencumbered CDBG-CV funds to grantees with active CDBG-CV Standard Agreements and how much will be awarded to the City is unknown at this time.
Environmental Considerations: The proposed project that would use grant funds is categorically exempt from environmental review under CEQA Guidelines Section 15301, Existing Facilities, which exempts “the operation, repair, maintenance, permitting, leasing, licensing, or minor alteration of existing public or private structures, facilities, mechanical equipment, or topographical features, involving negligible or no expansion of existing or former use” including “restoration or rehabilitation of deteriorated or damaged structures, facilities, or mechanical equipment to meet current standards of public health and safety, unless it is determined that the damage was substantial and resulted from an environmental hazard such as earthquake, landslide, or flood.”
The project qualifies for a National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) Categorical Exclusion pursuant to 24 CFR 58.35(a). The City completed required documentation and public noticing in compliance with NEPA as part of the grant application.
Policy Implications: This action would be consistent with an existing Memorandum of Understanding between the City and TCH where both parties agreed to seek to identify opportunities to develop shared strategies to prevent and reduce homelessness experienced by South Lake Tahoe residents and committed to jointly reviewing funding opportunities available to bring financial resources to our community which serve the priorities of the City. 141
Council Agenda Report January 9, 2024 Page 3 of 3

Report to City Council
Meeting Date: February 13, 2024
Title: Retired Investigators Guild Donation Authorization Location: Citywide
Responsible Staff Member: Nick Carlquist, Detective Sergeant, and David Stevenson, Police Chief Background: The South Lake Tahoe Police Department investigates many complex cases. Among these cases are investigations which have remained unsolved due to lack of leads, technology, or manpower (aka, “cold cases”). The Retired Investigators Guild (RIG) is a nonprofit who provides law enforcement investigation assistance.
Issue and Discussion: The SLTPD and RIG have established an MOU allowing RIG volunteers, who are former sworn law enforcement investigators, to partner with current SLTPD Detectives. The purpose of this partnership is to encourage the investigation, analysis, and closure of cold cases. The SLTPD is required to get City Council approval to accept this donation of time, which is estimated at 1-30 volunteer hours per month (valued at $89/hr to equate a fully burdened SLTPD detective).
Financial Implications: Assistance provided by RIG volunteers is at no cost to the City. RIG has met the insurance requirements requested by the City, and proof of insurance has been provided along with signed waivers drafted by the City.
Environmental Considerations: The proposed action is not a “project” subject to review under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) under CEQA Guidelines section 15378(b)(4) (creation of government funding mechanisms or 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).
Policy Implications: This assistance is consistent with the policies and goals of the Police Department. 150

Title: Amendment to the Contract with Walker Consultants for the City Parking Garage Access and Revenue Control System and Modification Project Location: One Bellamy County, South Lake Tahoe
Responsible Staff Member: Anush Nejad, Director of Public Works (530) 542-6031 and Jeff Roberson, Operations Lieutenant (530) 542-6521
Background: On April 5, 2022, the South Tahoe Joint Powers Parking Financing Authority entered into an agreement with Walker Consultants to evaluate the City Parking Garage and provide recommendations to upgrade the parking structure, circulation, Parking Revenue and Access Control System (PARCS), the addition of 12 Electric Vehicle (EV) charging stations and Advance Parking Guidance System (APGS). On November 1, 2022, the City Council approved Amendment #1 to the contract for a contract amount not to exceed $200,666, which was below the total authorization of $205,953. At the time, no additional budget was required for Amendment #1.
Issue and Discussion: The first phase of the project, which included the structural rehabilitation and circulation modification, was bid out and completed in November 2023. The next phase of the project is for the procurement and installation of a new Parking Revenue and Access Control System (PRACS), Parking Guidance System (PGS), and EV charging stations. The City is planning to issue two Requests for Proposals (RFP) for the procurement of the PRACS/PGS and EV charging stations. A standard Public Works contract will be prepared for the installation of the equipment. Revenue. The City is expected to issue the RFP in early Spring 2024 and construction bids by July 2024. The construction of the new equipment is planned for installation by September 2024. The current estimated construction cost of this phase of the project is $530,000. Since the project was divided into two phases, an additional budget is needed for Walker Consultants to complete the design and provide construction support for the current phase of the project.
Financial Implications: The current contract with Walker Consultants is $200,666. The staff has negotiated the additional services required to complete PARC, PGS, and EV charging stations.
The additional budget required is $46,200, as described in the attached Addendum #2. With the additional budget, the contract will increase to $246,866. The additional funds for the consultant support will be transferred from the Parking Garage Enterprise funds.
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).

WALKER CONSULTANTS 29
1. Kick Off Meeting
Exhibit A Scope of Services
Walker’ s approach to the project will begin with a kick off meeting between Walker’ s key staff members and City of South Lake Tahoe staff and stakeholders. The meeting agenda will cover a review of the parking structure work items, goals and objectives of the city and stakeholders, issues that need to be addressed and a detailed presentation of Walker’ s workplan and schedule of activities.
Walker will identify any additional information required from the city including any additional documentation for the parking structure, contacts needed for access to enclosed spaces or for traffic controls or other assistance during the work.
This meeting will be scheduled to occur within 2 weeks of our authorization to proceed. Walker will document the discussions and include a list of action items and commitments resulting from the meeting.
2. Monthly Coordination Meetings
Our workplan will include monthly coordination meetings between Walker key personnel and city staff and invited stakeholders. These meetings will cover project work activity progress and a review of planned work for the next month. Tentative findings and potential solutions from our investigations will be presented and discussed. Issues and constraints will be discussed and proposed corrective measures will be identified.
Project schedule and budgets will be reviewed and any deviation from our baseline plan discussed. Timely review and monitoring of the project plan will help maintain overall milestone targets.
These can be in person meetings located in South Lake Tahoe or conducted virtually via Go to Meeting, Microsoft Teams, Zoom or another networking application. Walker will prepare and maintain minutes of these meetings, actions items and commitments.
3. Parking Structure Condition Assessment
Walker will conduct a condition appraisal to assess the physical condition of the facility and to address all issues that have been previously identified or uncovered during the course of our work. Our condition appraisal will provide a health report” on the condition of the structure. The report will confirm suspected problems or document known problems and provide budgeting information to allow the city to finance the identified repairs. The report findings and recommendations will form the basis for construction document preparation for subsequent competitive bidding.
Our objective is to perform an overall condition of the parking structure and provide an opinion of the probable cost for the necessary repairs, based on the observed conditions as well as our experience with parking structure conditions and repair costs. We have already performed a preliminary walk through” to verify our understanding of the condition and the requirements of the RFP. Our approach to this portion of the project is based on that understanding and our familiarity with the facility. Our assessment will focus on the following:
Document the existing condition of the structure in representative areas.
Recommend conceptual repairs where required).
Provide an opinion of the probable cost for the recommended conceptual repairs.

Scope of Services, continued
Based on this project understanding, we propose the following scope of services:
Task A Initial Condition Appraisal
i. Review available drawings, specifications, and engineering/ testing reports to familiarize ourselves with the type of construction and waterproofing systems and any previous repairs or modifications performed on the parking structure.
ii. Conduct a field evaluation of the parking structure to document the current physical condition of structural and waterproofing elements. This will include visual observations and limited non destructive testing on various structural elements. Review nonstructural elements of the parking structure including but not limited to expansion joints, drainage and waterproofing systems, electrical systems, etc. iii. Compile and review all field data that will assist us in determining the probable causes and effects of the documented deterioration.
iv. Identify potential structural or safety related conditions, if any. The City will be notified immediately if any safety related conditions are identified.
v. Identify and prioritize other repairs for the structure. vi. Compile and analyze field evaluation data to generate repair recommendations and opinions of probable costs of construction.
vii. Prepare a draft written report with a summary of observations, including photographs depicting the areas noted in the report, findings, repair recommendations, and capital expense.
Depending on visual observation and initial findings during condition assessment, Walker may recommend additional invasive testing to determine the cause and extent of conditions observed. For this purpose, Walker may recommend exposing concrete steel reinforcement as well as obtaining material samples for strength characteristics and/ or chemical content at selected locations. Any destructive testing that is proposed shall be approved by the City of South Lake Tahoe.
Task B Construction Document Preparation
i. Prepare construction documents CDs) outlining priority repairs based on our condition assessment report which will consist of drawings and specifications with sufficient details to obtain competitive pricing from qualified repair contractors.
Walker will also provide contract administrative and site observation services during the construction and repair program to monitor the contractor’ s performance of the repair program and protect the client’ s interests.
4. Evaluation of Circulation Pattern and Ingress/Egress Walker will review the parking layouts and vehicular circulation within the garage to identify modifications that will reduce congestion and improve overall efficiency of the facility. Functional design options coupled with access and revenue control equipment will have the combined benefits of improved ingress/ egress and revenue enhancement.
C-047-2022 189
Scope of Services for City Garage Parking Access and
Revenue Control System and Modification Project
Prepared for the City of South Lake Tahoe
WALKER CONSULTANTS 31
Scope of Services, continued
The design of the parking areas needs to consider customer convenience, safety, wayfinding, and characteristics of the users. Parking geometrics need to allow vehicles to easily maneuver through the parking structure. Sightlines, visibility, and adequate illumination within parking structures need to be maintained for safety, and wayfinding.
Peak hour parking traffic volumes over the course of the day, week and year need to be studied to properly size entry and exit plazas and circulation routes within parking areas. Traffic circulation routes to and through all parking areas will be evaluated to mitigate congestion yet maximize the efficiency of parking.
Walker will employ best practices in developing circulation options that can be objectively evaluated to help identify potential solutions with measurable benefits. These options will be presented to the city and stakeholders for selecting a preferred option for further development and incorporation into construction documents.
5. Electric Vehicle Charging Stations
Options for electric vehicle charging station installation will be compiled and presented. Options will include prospective vendor choices and features, costs, and infrastructure upgrades necessary to accommodate the additional electrical service loads. Options will be presented in a way that facilitates decisions for incorporating into the construction document package.
Upon concurrence from the City, Walker will prepare construction documents for the EVCS installation including parking layouts, required signage, and electrical engineering necessary to obtain a building permit. Walker will prepare 60% and 100% construction documents, including plans, specifications, and our engineer’ s opinion of probable cost for review by the city.
Walker will also present a matrix of options that could serve as potential state and federal grant opportunities to provide all or partial project funding. This includes a detailed review of each grant program, the likelihood of success, and an application response plan. Walker can provide grant writing services to lead the response to the grant solicitations as an additional service and has been successful in writing grant applications and receiving funding for California agencies from state and federal sources, including electrification infrastructure and has expertise in the landscape of grants available for potential funding.
6. Parking Access and Revenue Control System
Data Collection and Report Preparation
Walker will meet with the City to discuss and collect documentation regarding the current PARCS system and the requirements for a new PARCS system, including an occupancy counting system with a remote count sign and a traffic control sign.
This meeting will include an on site assessment and further data gathering of the garage operations and the associated PARCS equipment. This visit will require the availability of City and/ or parking operator personnel to interview in person to collect information.
Walker will collect additional information from the City or the current PARCS vendor if necessary.
Walker will analyze all information collected in the Data Collection process, applying our knowledge of current best practices for PARCS systems that are appropriate for the City’s garage. This task will also include reaching out C-047-2022 190
Scope of Services for City Garage Parking Access and

WALKER CONSULTANTS 32
Scope of Services, continued
to potentially qualified new PARCS vendors to understand and evaluate their options.
Walker will prepare a Draft Report on the existing system as well as options for state of the art new systems, including gateless systems and mobile payment Apps. The Draft Report will review at least three major systems, based on best practices, including hardware and software components, as well as the revenue collection and administration system. The Report will also evaluate future trends in Parking Management, Revenue Control systems, Payment Systems, and Equipment technologies to provide an assessment of best practices and how they could apply for the City’s new system. After review and comment by the City, Walker will prepare a Final Report version. The Reports will follow the outline prescribed in the RFP.
Contract Specification and Procurement Document
Following approval of Walker’ s recommendations, Walker will prepare a Contract Specification and Procurement Document for a Best Value Procurement option for system procurement, installation, integration, testing, and acceptance of the new PARCS system including the occupancy counting system with a remote count sign and a traffic control sign. The Procurement Document will be written to comply with Construction Standards Institute CSI) outlines and format. It will include at minimum Functional Requirements, Performance Requirements, Integration Requirements, Testing, Validation and Acceptance Requirements, and other details for successful bidding and procurement of a new PARCS system.
A draft version of the Contract Specification and Procurement Document will be provided for City review, and a final version will be produced based on the City’s feedback.
7. Program Management and Project Delivery
Our project manager will be the primary contact with the city. The PM’ s responsibilities will include regular communication with city staff to ensure the consultant team is aware of decisions and direction on the project.
The PM is responsible for coordinating the work on all tasks, providing necessary resources to accomplish the work, maintaining the budget and schedule, and compiling and assembling documentation including contracts, meeting notes, the construction document package, permitting and bidding materials and construction administration records.
We anticipate that the project delivery method for the construction phase will be design bid build using a conventional public bidding process to select the general contractor. Walker will assist the city with the solicitation and review of bids and including the pre bid meeting, addenda and bid evaluation. During the construction phase, Walker will administer the construction contract, review contractor and supplier submittals, requests for information, change orders and testing agency reports.
Walker will make periodic visits to the project site to observe overall progress and quality of the work to support our review of the contractors’ applications for payment. Upon completion of the construction, Walker will conduct a punchlist review of the work to verify completion and conformance with the contract documents.

Joint Exercise of Powers Agreement with El Dorado County to establish a Tahoe South Shore Transit Joint Powers Authority
Executive Summary: There is a desire to expand on the success of the Lake Link microtransit service and to develop a reliable system to support transit options throughout the South Shore area. Meeting this goal will require long-term sustainable funding and an agency with the qualifications and capacity to manage transit operations and state, federal and local transit funding. Establishing a Joint Powers Authority would provide an opportunity for the City and El Dorado County to work cooperatively to pursue transit funding and provide local transit services in the South Shore area.
Requested Action / Suggested Motions: Pass a Resolution authorizing and directing the City Manager and City Attorney to enter negotiations with El Dorado County on a Joint Exercise of Powers Agreement to establish a Tahoe South Shore Transit Joint Powers Authority.

Report to City Council
Meeting Date: February 13, 2024
Title: Negotiation of a Joint Exercise of Powers Agreement with El Dorado County to establish a Tahoe South Shore Transit Joint Powers Authority Location: Citywide
Responsible Staff Member: Hilary Roverud, Assistant City Manager Background: The City has partnered with the South Shore Transit Management Association (SS/TMA) and other public and private entities to provide Lake Link, an on-demand microtransit service in the Lake Tahoe south shore area. Since its inception the Lake Link service has been incrementally expanded geographically in the City and Douglas County, NV and through additional service hours and vehicles. In December 2023 the Lake Link service provided 13,961 rides, an increase of 77% over December 2022. Those rides provided service to 19,738 passengers.
In December 2023 Lake Link hours were expanded to 11:00 p.m. on Friday and Saturday nights.
On January 17, 2024, the service area was expanded to include the Tahoe Sierra and Highland Woods neighborhoods in the City and to Round Hill and upper Kingsbury Grade in Douglas County. With the expanded service ridership is expected to continue to increase.
Current Lake Link Service Area
231
Council Agenda Report- February 13, 2024 Page 2 of 2
Issue and Discussion: The current microtransit service has an operational and administrative cost of approximately $2.2 million. Funding is provided on an annual basis to SS/TMA by public and private partners. Lake Link does not currently have a dedicated on-going funding source.
Given the success of the service, there is a desire to expand Lake Link and develop a reliable system to support transit options throughout the South Shore area. Meeting this goal will require long-term sustainable funding and an entity with the qualifications and capacity to manage transit operations and state, federal and local transit funding. The South Shore Transit Ad Hoc Committee, made up of City, El Dorado County, SS/TMA and Heavenly Resort representatives has been discussing options to achieve these goals and has made the recommendation to establish a Joint Powers Authority with the City and County as initial members.
Joint Powers Authority: The Joint Exercise of Powers Act authorizes public agencies to establish two kinds of JPAs, either to jointly contract for services or to form a separate legal entity with independent legal rights. Forming a separate entity can be beneficial because the debts, liabilities and obligations of the JPA belong to that entity, not the contracting parties. Once established, the JPA is an independent governmental entity separate from the JPA members, with its own governing board, officers, bylaws, conflict of interest code, and treasury. JPAs generally have their own staff and employees and can often borrow on its own credit. Under the Marks-Roos Act, JPAs have a variety of powers designed to enable them to assist in the financing of public capital improvements. These powers include the power to buy, sell, and lease property, issue revenue bonds, and buy and sell local agency bonds.
To enter into a JPA (either to jointly exercise common powers or to form a separate legal entity), the governing bodies of all public agency parties must approve an agreement stating the powers of the JPA, structure of the governing board, and the manner in which the JPA will be administered.
Financial Implications: Negotiation of a Joint Exercise of Powers Agreement will likely require outside legal services and expertise. However, the services needed would be discussed among the City and County legal counsel to determine funding necessary.
Environmental Considerations: Adoption of this resolution is not a “project” subject to review under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) under CEQA Guidelines section 15378(b)(2) (continuing administrative or maintenance activities, such as purchases for supplies).
Policy Implications: This action would advance Goal 1.4 (Transportation) in the 2023-2028 Strategic Plan, by addressing Action Item 4: Partner with South Shore Transportation Management Association, Tahoe Transportation District, Tahoe Regional Planning Agency and other partners to identify new and existing funding sources to expand and electrify micro-transit service from its initial footprint to the entire city limits, as based on the 2022 South Shore Transportation Analysis.

February 13, 2024
Authorizing and Directing the City Manager and City Attorney to enter negotiations with El Dorado County on a Joint Exercise of Powers Agreement to establish a Tahoe South Shore Transit Joint Powers Authority (JPA)
BACKGROUND
A. The City of South Lake Tahoe 2023-2028 Strategic plan prioritizes working with local partners to develop a funding mechanism and operating structure for local transit and microtransit.

D. Lake Link has the potential to expand microtransit services and integrate with other transit systems in the area to provide efficient and convenient mobility options for residents and visitors.
E. The South Shore Transit Technical Advisory Committee which includes representatives from the City, El Dorado County, SS/TMA are recommending that the City and El Dorado County pursue establishing a Joint Powers Authority (JPA) for the purpose of jointly implementing transit services in the Lake Tahoe south shore area.
F. A JPA is a separate governmental entity formed by two or more governmental entities with the governing authority provided by the Joint Exercise of Powers Act (Government Code §6500, et seq.).
BASED ON THE FACTS SET FORTH IN THE BACKGROUND, BE IT RESOLVED, that the City Council of the City of South Lake Tahoe hereby:
1. Authorizes and directs the City Manager and City Attorney to initiate negotiations with El Dorado County to develop a Joint Exercise of Powers Agreement to establish a South Shore Transit JPA for future consideration by the City Council and El Dorado County Board of Supervisors. 233

Agenda Item: Professional Services Agreement with CentralSquare Technologies LLC for Either Hosted (Cloud) or On-Premises Finance System Upgrade
Executive Summary: The City currently uses ONESolution from CentralSquare (formally know as Superion LLC and SunGard Public Sector) for its Accounting, Purchasing, Personnel, and Payroll functions to track and manage all of the City's financial data. Periodically, software vendors require a major upgrade to keep the software relevant and maintain supportability. The City’s last major upgrade was in 2013-2014. Since then, CentralSquare has put out a new version of ONESolution called Finance Enterprise with the current version 22.2. An upgrade will provide additional support and reduce risk of system failures by having the most up-to-date software support and technical services. The new software version is available in two formats - hosted and on-premises. After hearing from staff about advantages and disadvantages of each format, the City Council is requested to provide direction to staff on their preference for this next software upgrade.
Requested Action / Suggested Motions: City Council may either: 1) Pass Resolution authorizing and directing the City Manager to execute Professional Services Agreement with CentralSquare Technologies, LLC for Finance Enterprise Hosted (Cloud) Software Upgrade for a cost for the first year of $118,606 and subsequent annual cost of $105,906 and Additional General Fund Budget Appropriations of $86,606: or 2) Pass a Resolution authorizing and directing the City Manager to execute Professional Services Agreement with CentralSquare Technologies, LLC for Finance Enterprise OnPremises Software Upgrade for an annual cost of $73,835 and Additional General Fund Budget Appropriations of $41,385.

Report to City Council
Meeting Date: February 13, 2024
Title: Professional Services Agreement with CentralSquare Technologies LLC for Finance System Upgrade
Location: Citywide
Responsible Staff Members: Olga Tikhomirova, Director of Finance Sebastian Knapp, Information Systems Supervisor
Background: The City Strategic Plan includes a strategic priority to “utilize modern technology to do more work digitally in order to improve efficiency and access to services” and an action item to “implement the IT Strategic Plan to ensure the City utilizes state-of-the-art technology and ensure such technology is updated appropriately.” The City currently uses CentralSquare’s ONESolution (formally known as Superion LLC and SunGard Public Section) for its Accounting, Purchasing, Personnel, and Payroll functions, including Employee Online and Timecard Online, to track and manage all of the City’s financial data. Periodically, software vendors require a major upgrade to keep the software relevant and maintain supportability. The City’s last major upgrade was in 2013-2014. Since then, CentralSquare has put out a new version of ONESolution called Finance Enterprise with the current version 22.2. An upgrade will provide additional support and reduce risk of system failures by having the most up-to-date software support and technical services.
Issue and Discussion: The support for the City’s current financial system has ended on December 31, 2023, and the City has been operating under an interim agreement while working on obtaining complete information on and analyzing the new software formats. The new Finance Enterprise software is available in two different subscription formats - the on-premises format and the hosted (cloud) format.
The cost of the on-premises format is $73,835K annually (a $5,835 increase from the current annual cost of $68,000, partially due to the change to a Subscription format with a “per user unit price”). With the on-premises format, the City will be required to maintain the hardware, providing all human support. The hardware cost is estimated at approximately $15K to $20K over 3-to-5- year period. With this format, the City is fully responsible for and has more control over the security of the system and the data it contains.
The cost of the hosted format is $105,906 annually – approximately $30K more than the onpremises format. With this format the City will be able to avoid periodic hardware upgrade cost, realizing cost savings not only in environmental, but also in human resources, as described in more detail below.
236
City Council Agenda Report February 13, 2024 Page 2 of 4 There are several benefits with going into the cloud environment. Cloud offers redundancy of power, environmental controls, network infrastructure, and equipment, as well as newer, more powerful hardware. CentralSquare has a dedicated network security team that stays on top of monitoring security vulnerabilities, performing periodic penetration testing for security incident and event management. All data is considered “Sensitive”. The data uses encryption and is backed up to other servers on a regular basis and replicated to a secure off-site storage. Several critical IT security functions will be offloaded to this cloud software provider for items such as backup, system monitoring, response to system issues, and hardware replacement.
CentralSquare provides automated monitoring 24-7. Operating System upgrades and patches, as well as application upgrades happen on the weekends by CentralSquare which minimizes or eliminates the City’s staff time and costs for upgrades.
An independent IT consultant currently contracted by the City for a cyber security project, provided an analysis regarding the two software formats and concluded in favor of the hosted (cloud) format. The consultant indicated the following:
1. Outsourcing risk and security - with a cloud solution, the City will have a reasonable security and risk barrier as the hosted service will be responsible for the majority of the security controls.
2. Reduced IT administrative burden – the City will no longer have to update/maintain the on-prem system nor have to worry about the system, network, or environmental requirements to keep the systems up.
3. Increased reliability - there is no "one server" that can go down and cause a loss of access to the data or records. If the City has an outage that affects the city-wide infrastructure, staff can still access the records via any internet connection.
Additionally, the IT consultant performed the research of the CentralSquare security stance and has not found any publicly announced data incidents (which was confirmed by CentralSquare in one of the recent webinars on their Cloud security). From the review of peer’s opinions of CentralSquare, nothing negative was found about the Finance Enterprise hosted module and no history of poor security practices was found. For these reasons, the consultant has recommended to move to the cloud. The independent analysis by City’s staff confirmed the findings. The City staff is also recommending selecting the hosted format of the Finance Enterprise.
The new Finance Enterprise subscription comes as a bundle and includes all modules the City is currently using, including:
- Accounts Payable
- Accounts Receivable
- Payroll, including Timecard Online and Employee Online - General Ledger
- Position Budgeting
- Document Online
- Bank Reconciliation
- Budgeting
- Purchasing
237
City Council Agenda Report February 13, 2024 Page 3 of 4 - Cash Receipts
In addition, the new subscription system includes, at no cost, additional modules that the City is currently not utilizing:
- Contracts
- Fixed Assets
- Procurement Cards
- Projects & Grants
- Applicant Tracking
Staff will evaluate whether it’s beneficial and feasible for City’s business processes to utilize any of these additional modules and will implement as necessary.
Financial Implications: One-time costs for the upgrade to CentralSquare's Finance Enterprise hosted software is $36,000 for consulting services (same as for the on-premises format), $10,000 for Cloud Setup, and $2,700 for VPN Hardware and Support, for a total onetime cost of $48,700. The first-year subscription fee is $105,906 with a 5% CPI increase in subsequent years. For the on-premises format, the first-year subscription fee is $73,835, with a 5% CPI increase in subsequent years. The contract term is five years for either format. The firstyear subscription fee will be credited towards the City’s current maintenance fee of approximately $68,000.
The required additional budget appropriation in FY 2023-2024 for the hosted software upgrade is $86,606. For the on-premises upgrade format, it’s $41,385.
The two resolutions for additional budget appropriations into the Information Technology account 100-01840-42030 Technical Services, and two separate PSA agreements are attached to this agenda item. The City Council is requested to provide direction to staff regarding the preferred format for this software upgrade. Staff recommends selecting the hosted format of the Finance Enterprise.
In addition to the upcoming upgrade, City staff anticipates to fully take advantage of the recently offered by CentralSquare its first online payment solution called CentralSquare Payments. This online payment system is compatible and fully integrated with Finance Enterprise software and provides the following key benefits:
Reduced customer service calls and walk-ins with a 24/7 online processing portal and customer support.
Increase easy payment adoption by allowing citizens to pay from any device, from anywhere.
Reduce delinquency by easily notifying those citizens who are late on payments. Eliminate manual processes so the team can spend less time managing cumbersome workflows.
No need for 3rd party processors, there is one vendor to contact for support.
These payment processing services will be implemented upon completion of the software upgrade to the new Finance Enterprise. The new payment system will use the taxpayer funded 238
City Council Agenda Report February 13, 2024 Page 4 of 4 model (convenience fee). Selecting this option is consistent with Council approval of another contract (Paymentus, in February 2020) and the convenience fee model that was anticipated to be expanded to other City departments at that time. The service fee will be charged directly by the CentralSquare’s payment processor when the customer completes an online credit/debit card transaction. The City will never handle the fee, receiving only the actual amount paid toward the fees and tax revenue. If a customer does not wish to pay the convenience service fee, the online customer will have the option to pay with an e-check at a small flat fee per e-check. Paying with checks or cash over the counter or by mail will not incur any fees.
Environmental Considerations: This action is not a project requiring review under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to CEQA Guidelines section 15378(b)(5) (organizational or administrative activities that will not result in direct or indirect physical changes in the environment).
Policy Implications: This action is consistent with Strategic Priority 5.2, Digital Government, Action Item 2, Implement the IT Strategic Plan to ensure the City utilizes state-ofthe-art technology and ensure such technology is updated appropriately. 239

EXHIBIT 3
CentralSquare Access Management Policy
In order to provide secure, federally compliant connections to agency systems CentralSquare Technologies (“CentralSquare”) requires BeyondTrust or SecureLink as the only approved methodology of connection. BeyondTrust and Securelink provide the necessary remote access in order to service and maintain CentralSquare products while adhering to the Federal Bureau of Investigations Criminal Justice Information Services requirements. Both solutions utilize two-factor authentication Federal Information Processing Standard Publication (“FIPS”) 140-2 validated cryptographic modules and AES encryption in 256-bit strengths.
BeyondTrust and Securelink are addressed in turn via this Access Management Policy; Customers may choose which remote privileged access management solution will be utilized by CentralSquare.
BeyondTrust
The BeyondTrust remote support solution may be utilized via escorted session or a jump Customer. As for an escorted session, when an agency needs assistance from CentralSquare, the agency employee requesting assistance will receive verbal or email communication with a session key necessary to enable remote access. If a verbal key is provided, the user enters the session key after visiting https://securesupport.centralsquare.com.
Jump Customers are a Windows service that can be stopped/started to facilitate a support session. Connections made via jump Customer can be active or passive. An active jump Customer is always available. A passive connection is enabled for a specific purpose and then disabled when not used. Regardless of the option selected, CentralSquare’s support team will arrange a BeyondTrust session to establish the jump Customer.
The jump Customer resides on the agency side on the installed device, where an agency administrator can manage.
Instructions on how to enable/disable jump Customers can be provided upon request. A sample workflow of a passive jump Customer is provided below:
Should an agency require support from CentralSquare, a call would be placed and/or a support ticket opened in the portal on the CentralSquare customer support website. Before accessing the agency’s system and/or environment, the CentralSquare representative would send a notice of connection from the CentralSquare support portal instance. This notice can be sent to the individual at the agency that the CentralSquare representative is working with or other designated contacts as necessary. Upon receipt of the notice of connection, the agency personnel would enable the BeyondTrust jump Customer. The CentralSquare representative would then be admitted to the agency’s system and/or environment to perform the necessary task. Upon completion of the task, the CentralSquare representative sends a notice of disconnection from the CentralSquare support portal instance. Upon receipt of the notice of disconnection, the agency personnel would then disable the BeyondTrust jump Customer.
Securelink
Similar to BeyondTrust’s escorted session, Securelink may be utilized via “quick connect”. To enable a quick connect session when an agency needs assistance from CentralSquare, the Agency employee requesting assistance will enter a key code in order to connect for screen sharing on a device.
Similar to the jump Customer methodology, SecureLink may also be utilized via “gatekeeper”. The sample workflow description for a jump Customer provided above is substantially similar to the workflow for gatekeeper.
Summation
BeyondTrust and Securelink allow customers the ability to monitor connectivity to the customer’s network and maintain CJIS compliance while enabling CentralSquare to perform the necessary support functions. 272

Service Level Commitments
The following applies to any non-OPS designated Software Subscriptions on Exhibit 1 as a cloud hosted Solution.
1. Service Level Commitments
A. Availability. During any calendar month, the availability of the Solution shall be no less than 99.9%, excluding scheduled maintenance. CentralSquare shall provide Customer with prompt notification as soon as it becomes aware of any actual or potential unscheduled downtime of the Solution, as well as continual periodic updates during the unscheduled downtime regarding CentralSquare’s progress in remedying the unavailability and estimated time at which the Solution shall be available.
B. Measurement. Service availability is measured as the total time that the solutions are available during each calendar month for access by Customer (“Service Availability”). Service Availability measurement shall be applied to the production environment only, and the points of measurement for all monitoring shall be the servers and the internet connections at CentralSquare’s hosted environment.
C. Calculation. Service availability for a given month shall be calculated using the following calculation:
I. The total number of minutes which the service was not available in a given month shall be subtracted from the total number of minutes available in the given month. The resulting figure is divided by the total number of minutes available in the given month.
II. Service availability targets are subject to change due to the variance of the number of days in a month.
III. The total number of minutes which the service was not available in a given month shall exclude minutes associated with scheduled or emergency maintenance.
D. Remedy. If the service period target measurement is not met, then the customer shall be entitled to a credit calculated as follows:
Service availability Credit percentage
Less than 99.9% but greater than or equal to 99.0% 5%
Less than 99.0% but greater than or equal to 95.0% 10%
Less than 95% 20%
Service Availability in the relevant
Service Period
Percentage Reduction in Monthly Fee for the
Subsequent Service Period
Less than 99.9% but greater than or equal to 99.0% 5%
Less than 99.0% but greater than or equal to 95.0% 10%
Less than 95% 20%
E. Credit must be requested by the customer within sixty (60) days of the failed target. Any credit awarded shall be applied to the next applicable invoice. Customer shall not be eligible for credits where customer is more than thirty (30) days past due on their account.
2. Server Performance & Capacity. The standard provisioning of storage for the cloud solutions is 1 terabyte.
If Customer requests to add additional Software, increase storage or processing requirements, and/or request additional environments, these requests will be evaluated and if additional resources are required to support modifications, additional fees may apply at per unit (gigabyte, hour, license, etc).
3. Non-Production Environments. Included in the subscription fee is access to the training environment during the hours of 8:00am – 4:00pm EST, Monday through Friday. Should the Customer require extended access for items such as internal training, CentralSquare can make exceptions provided that Customer provide reasonable advance written notice. CentralSquare will then work with the Customer to enable access in accordance with an agreed upon schedule.

1. Product Updates and Releases
1.1. Software Version. “Software Version” means the base or core version of the Software that contains significant new features and significant fixes and is available to the Customer. Software Versions may occur as the Software architecture changes or as new technologies are developed. The nomenclature used for updates and upgrades consists of major, minor, build, and fix and these correspond to the following digit locations of a release, a,b,c,d. An example of which would be 7.4.1.3, where the 7 refers to the major release, the 4 refers to the minor release, the 1 refers to the build, and the 3 refers to a fix. All Software Versions are provided and included as part of this Agreement.
1.2. Updates. From time to time CentralSquare may develop permanent fixes or solutions to known problems or bugs in the Software and incorporate them in a formal “Update” to the Software. If Customer is receiving technical support from CentralSquare on the general release date for an Update, CentralSquare will provide the Customer with the Update and related Documentation at no extra charge. Updates for custom configurations will be agreed upon by the Parties and outlined in a Statement of Work or Change Order.
1.3. Releases. Customer shall agree to install and/or use any New or Major Release within one year of being made available by CentralSquare to avoid or mitigate a performance problem, ineligibility for Support and Maintenance Services or infringement claim. All modifications, revisions and updates to the Software shall be furnished by means of new Releases of the Software and shall be accompanied by updates to the Documentation whenever CentralSquare determines, in its sole discretion, that such updates are necessary.
2. Support
2.1. CentralSquare shall provide to Customer support via toll-free phone number 833-278-7877 or via the CentralSquare Support Portal. CentralSquare shall provide to Customer, commercially reasonable efforts in solving errors reported by the Customer as well as making available an online support portal. Customer shall provide to CentralSquare reasonably detailed documentation and explanation, together with underlying data, to substantiate errors and to assist CentralSquare in its efforts to diagnose, reproduce and correct the error. Should either Party not be able to locate the error root cause and Customer and CentralSquare agree that on-site services are necessary to diagnose or resolve the problem CentralSquare shall provide a travel estimate and estimated hours in order to diagnose the reported error.
2.2. If after traveling onsite to diagnose a reported error and such reported error did not, in fact, exist or was not attributable to a defect in the Software provided by CentralSquare or an act or omission of CentralSquare, then Customer shall pay for CentralSquare's investigation, travel, and related services in accordance with provided estimate. Customer must provide CentralSquare with such facilities, equipment and support as are reasonably necessary for CentralSquare to perform its obligations under this Exhibit, including remote access in accordance with the Remote Access Policy.
3. Online Support Portal
Online support is available via https://support.centralsquare.com/s/contact-us, offering Customer the ability to resolve its own problems with access to CentralSquare’s most current information. Customer will need to enter its designated username and password to gain access to the technical support areas on CentralSquare’s website. CentralSquare’s technical support areas allow Customer to: (i) search an up-to-date knowledge base of technical support information, technical tips, and featured functions; and (ii) access answers to frequently asked questions (FAQ).
4. Exclusions from Technical Support Services
CentralSquare shall have no support obligations to provide Support or Maintenance for Solutions that are not kept current to one version prior to the then current version of the Solution. CentralSquare shall have no support obligations with respect to any third-party hardware or software product not licensed or sold to Customer by CentralSquare (“Nonqualified Product”). Customer shall be solely responsible for the compatibility and functioning of Nonqualified Products with the Software.
5. Customer Responsibilities
In connection with CentralSquare’s provision of technical support as described herein, Customer acknowledges that Customer has the responsibility to do each of the following:
5.1 Provide hardware, operating system and browser software that meets technical specifications, as well as a fast, stable, high-speed connection and remote connectivity for accessing the Solution.
5.2 Maintain any applicable computer system and associated peripheral equipment in good working order in accordance with the manufacturers’ specifications, and ensure that any problems reported to CentralSquare are not due to hardware malfunction;
5.3 For CentralSquare Solutions that are implemented on Customer Systems, maintain the designated operating system at the latest code revision level reasonably deemed necessary by CentralSquare for proper operation of the Software;
5.4 Supply CentralSquare with access to and use of all information and facilities reasonably determined to be necessary by CentralSquare to render the technical support described herein; 307

5.6 At all times follow routine operator procedures as specified in the Documentation or any error correction guidelines of CentralSquare posted on the CentralSquare website;
5.7 Customer shall remain solely responsible at alltimes for the safeguarding of Customer’s proprietary, confidential, and classified information contained within Customer Systems; and
5.8 Reasonably ensure that the Customer Systems are isolated and free from viruses and malicious code that could cause harm before requesting or receiving remote support assistance.
6. Priorities and Support Response Matrix
The following priority matrix relates to software errors covered by this Agreement. Causes secondary to non-covered causes - such as hardware, network, and third-party products - are not included in this priority matrix and are outside the scope of this Exhibit. CentralSquare will make commercially reasonable efforts to respond to Software incidents for live remote based production systems using the following guidelines:
Priority Issue Definition Response Time

Https://support.centralsquare.com/s/contact-us
7. Exceptions. CentralSquare shall not be responsible for failure to carry out its Support and Maintenance obligations under this Exhibit if the failure is caused by adverse impact due to:
7.1. defectiveness of the Customer’s Systems (including but not limited to environment, hardware or ancillary systems), or due to Customer corrupt, incomplete, or inaccurate data reported to the Solution, or documented defect.
7.2. denial of reasonable access to Customer’s System or premises preventing CentralSquare from addressing the issue.
7.3. material changes made to the usage of the Solution by Customer where CentralSquare has not agreed to such changes in advance and in writing or the modification or alteration, in any way, by Customer or its subcontractors, of communications links necessary to the proper performance of the Solution.
7.4. a Force Majeure event (as outlined in Section 12), or the negligence, intentional acts, or omissions of Customer or its agents.
8. Incident Resolution. Actual response times and resolutions may vary due to issue complexity and priority. For critical impact level and above, CentralSquare provides a continuous resolution effort until the issue is resolved. CentralSquare will make commercially reasonable efforts to resolve Software incidents for live remote based production systems using the following guidelines:
308

9.1. Maintenance. All non-production environment resolution processes will follow the structure and schedules outlined above for production environments.
9.2. Incidents and service requests. Non-production environment incidents are considered priority 3 or 4, dictated by circumstances and will be prioritized and scheduled subordinate to production environment service requests.
10. Training. Outside the scope of training services purchased, if any, Customer is responsible for the training and organization of its staff in the operation of the Software.
11. Development Work. Software support and maintenance does not include development work either (i) on software not licensed from CentralSquare or (ii) development work for enhancements or features that are outside the documented functionality of the Software, except such work as may be specifically purchased and outlined in the Agreement.
CentralSquare retains all intellectual property rights in development work performed and Customer may request consulting and development work from CentralSquare as a separate billable service.
12. Technology Life Expectancy. Customer understands, acknowledges and agrees that the technology upon which the Hardware, Solution and Third-Party Software is based changes rapidly. Customer further acknowledges that CentralSquare will continue to improve the functionality and features of the Solution to improve legal compliance, accuracy, functionality and usability. As a result, CentralSquare does not represent or warrant that the Hardware, Solution and/or Third-Party Software provided to Customer under this Agreement or that the Customer Systems recommended by CentralSquare will function for an indefinite period of time. Rather, CentralSquare and Customer may, from time to time, analyze the functionality of the Hardware, Solution, Third-Party Software and Customer Systems in response to changes to determine whether Customer must upgrade the same. Customer upgrades may include without limitation, the installation of a new Release, additional disk storage and memory, and workstation and/or server upgrades. Customer upgrades may also include the installation and/or removal of Third-Party Software. Customer is solely responsible for all costs associated with future resources and upgrades. 309
EXHIBIT 3
CentralSquare Access Management Policy
In order to provide secure, federally compliant connections to agency systems CentralSquare Technologies (“CentralSquare”) requires BeyondTrust or SecureLink as the only approved methodology of connection. BeyondTrust and Securelink provide the necessary remote access in order to service and maintain CentralSquare products while adhering to the Federal Bureau of Investigations Criminal Justice Information Services requirements. Both solutions utilize two-factor authentication Federal Information Processing Standard Publication (“FIPS”) 140-2 validated cryptographic modules and AES encryption in 256-bit strengths.
BeyondTrust and Securelink are addressed in turn via this Access Management Policy; Customers may choose which remote privileged access management solution will be utilized by CentralSquare.
BeyondTrust
The BeyondTrust remote support solution may be utilized via escorted session or a jump Customer. As for an escorted session, when an agency needs assistance from CentralSquare, the agency employee requesting assistance will receive verbal or email communication with a session key necessary to enable remote access. If a verbal key is provided, the user enters the session key after visiting https://securesupport.centralsquare.com.
Jump Customers are a Windows service that can be stopped/started to facilitate a support session. Connections made via jump Customer can be active or passive. An active jump Customer is always available. A passive connection is enabled for a specific purpose and then disabled when not used. Regardless of the option selected, CentralSquare’s support team will arrange a BeyondTrust session to establish the jump Customer.
The jump Customer resides on the agency side on the installed device, where an agency administrator can manage.
Instructions on how to enable/disable jump Customers can be provided upon request. A sample workflow of a passive jump Customer is provided below:
Should an agency require support from CentralSquare, a call would be placed and/or a support ticket opened in the portal on the CentralSquare customer support website. Before accessing the agency’s system and/or environment, the CentralSquare representative would send a notice of connection from the CentralSquare support portal instance. This notice can be sent to the individual at the agency that the CentralSquare representative is working with or other designated contacts as necessary. Upon receipt of the notice of connection, the agency personnel would enable the BeyondTrust jump Customer. The CentralSquare representative would then be admitted to the agency’s system and/or environment to perform the necessary task. Upon completion of the task, the CentralSquare representative sends a notice of disconnection from the CentralSquare support portal instance. Upon receipt of the notice of disconnection, the agency personnel would then disable the BeyondTrust jump Customer.
Securelink
Similar to BeyondTrust’s escorted session, Securelink may be utilized via “quick connect”. To enable a quick connect session when an agency needs assistance from CentralSquare, the Agency employee requesting assistance will enter a key code in order to connect for screen sharing on a device.
Similar to the jump Customer methodology, SecureLink may also be utilized via “gatekeeper”. The sample workflow description for a jump Customer provided above is substantially similar to the workflow for gatekeeper.
Summation
BeyondTrust and Securelink allow customers the ability to monitor connectivity to the customer’s network and maintain CJIS compliance while enabling CentralSquare to perform the necessary support functions. 310

Agenda Item #:11
Agenda Item: City Council Designees to Ameca Sister City Trip Executive Summary: The City of South Lake Tahoe and the City of Ameca became Sister Cities back in 2019. Our Hispanic population is significant in Tahoe and one of the main reasons why the City of South Lake Tahoe chose to become a sister city to the City of Ameca is because approximately 70% of our Hispanic population has roots from the City of Ameca and the region of Mexico known as Jalisco. The Administration from the City of Ameca visited the City of South Lake Tahoe in 2019 for this historic unification. Those involved throughout this important relationship over the past 5-years would like to have a delegation return to the City of Ameca. The purpose is like the original journey: education and sharing of information. The trip is set to occur February 28 through March 4, 2024, and the City Council is being asked to Pass a Motion designating two members of City Council to attend an Ameca Sister City Trip, February 28-March 4, 2024, at no cost to the City.
Requested Action / Suggested Motions: Pass a Motion designating two members of City Council to attend an Ameca Sister City Trip, February 28-March 4, 2024, at no cost to the City.

City of South Lake Tahoe
Report to City Council
Meeting Date: February 13, 2024
Title: City Council Designees to Ameca Sister City Trip Location: Citywide and Ameca, MX.
Responsible Staff Member: Joseph D. Irvin, City Manager (530) 542-6043
Background:
The City of South Lake Tahoe and the City of Ameca became Sister Cities back in 2019. Our Hispanic population is significant in Tahoe and one of the main reasons why the City of South Lake Tahoe chose to become a sister city to the City of Ameca is because approximately 70% of our Hispanic population has roots from the City of Ameca and the region of Mexico known as Jalisco.
The Administration from the City of Ameca visited the City of South Lake Tahoe in 2019 for this historic unification. The Ameca group toured South Tahoe Refuse, Lake Tahoe Community College, South Tahoe Public Utility District, Lakeview Commons, and more.
A City of South Lake Tahoe Contingency (made up of representatives from the City of SLT, STR, STPUD, & LTCC) visited the City of Ameca in February 2020. The delegation from South Lake Tahoe toured the City of Ameca over a five-day period. Tours included the University, Public Water Facilities, Public Dump, El Presidente's Office, Carnival and the Sugar Cane Factory. In addition, the City of Ameca dedicated a feature in a public park in Ameca establishing the sister city relationship between the City of Ameca and the City of South Lake Tahoe.
The City of Ameca Coalition returned to South Lake Tahoe in July 2022. South Tahoe Refuse generously donated two (2) garbage trucks to the City of Ameca so that they could begin to collect commercial garbage. The city also unveiled the memorializing of our sister city relationship with a plaque on a boulder that resides in Lakeview Commons. Mayor Bass (then Council Member Bass) also hosted the Ameca delegation for a celebration of our collective partnership.
Issue and Discussion:
Those involved throughout this important relationship over the past 5-years would like to have a similar delegation return to the City of Ameca. The purpose is like the original journey: education and sharing of information. The trip is set to occur February 28 through March 4, 2024, and the City Council is being asked to Pass a Motion designating two members of City Council to attend an Ameca Sister City Trip, February 28-March 4, 2024, at no cost to the City.
Financial Implications:
There are no financial impacts to the City associated with this trip as proposed.
Environmental Considerations:
The discussion in this item 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 323
Council Agenda Report February 13, 2024 Page 2 of 2
environment, as contemplated by Title 14, California Code of Regulations, Sections 15378(b)(2) and 15378(b)(4) and is, therefore, not subject to CEQA pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15060(c)(3).
Policy Implications: The relationship with our Sister City of Ameca advances the City Council Strategic Priorities, specifically:
Action Item 3.2.3 (Inclusion and Diversity): Continue to support and foster engagement opportunities that support and continue to cultivate our relationship with Ameca, MX and Latinx community members.

City of South Lake Tahoe
Report to City Council
Meeting Date: February 13, 2024
Title: Discussion of Cannabis Community Benefit Fee Revenue Allocation Policy and Grant Program Guidelines and Application
Location: Citywide
Responsible Staff Member: Sara Letton, Sustainability Coordinator Background: On February 19, 2019, the City Council adopted Ordinance No. 2019-1126 which regulates cannabis businesses in order to ensure the health, safety, and welfare of the residents of the city of South Lake Tahoe and visitors. At that time cannabis businesses operated pursuant to individual Development Agreements that required each business to submit to the City on a monthly basis within 45 days following the month end the Community Benefit Fees payment equivalent six (6) percent of Gross Receipts for that month.
On May 18, 2021 an item was brought to council “Approving One-Time Allocation of $100,000 of Cannabis Community Benefit Fee Revenue to the Boys and Girls Club of Lake Tahoe Building Campaign and Establishing a Policy for Future Allocations.” The policy that was established was the “Cannabis Community Benefit Fee Revenue Allocation Policy.” 2022’s Measure G enacted an administrative change on how cannabis business fees are collected in order to streamline the process. It was expected to continue to provide approximately $1,000,000 in local funding annually. The measure was described by the City’s documentation as intending to “maintain essential services such as wildfire prevention, safety, snow removal, road repair, youth programs, other general services by converting existing cannabis business fees to a gross receipts tax up to 6%.” Outreach stated that “current nonprofit community benefits grants will not be impacted by Measure G.”
In April 2022, the City of South Lake Tahoe rolled out the pilot year of its competitive Cannabis Revenues Grant Program (CRGP), and 14 projects were funded at almost $400,000. The program was administered in a substantially similar manner in 2023 and Council granted 15 projects at $408,625.
The CRGP is in alignment with the City’s “Financial Policy for Granting Funds for Community Benefit and Enhancement” and any updates or changes to the CRGP must be in alignment with that Policy, attached.
Issue and Discussion: At issue is if/how the Cannabis Community Benefit Fee Revenue Allocation Policy, and the ensuing Guidelines and Application, should be amended/updated. 326
Council Agenda Report- February 13, 2024 Page 2 of 3
During the Review Team meeting when 2023 awards were being considered, several points were captured for later consideration by Council. Staff now desires feedback on several questions while the 2024 Guidelines and Application are being prepared.
The Cannabis Community Benefit Fee Revenue Allocation Policy states:
“The City Manager is delegated authority to create a Community-wide Benefit Grant Program funded by Cannabis Community Benefit Fee revenue. This program will provide funding to local schools, government agencies and non-profit organizations with programs or projects designed to mitigate potential impact of the cannabis industry in South Lake Tahoe. The program will operate through an application process to be established prior to the next year’s mid-year budget process.”
The 2023 CRGP Guidelines state:
“To assist the City Council in the evaluation of the community-wide cannabis revenue grant program, the following process and guidelines have been developed to assist the City in an annual review of proposals for funding opportunities to local public agencies and nonprofit organizations with programs or projects designed to mitigate potential negative impacts of the cannabis industry in South Lake Tahoe and which promote the priorities of the City Strategic Plan.”
During the 2023 grant application review process the Review Team discussed how an applicant is expected to know what are the “potential impacts of the cannabis industry in South Lake Tahoe.” The current policy and guidelines allow an applicant to interpret the definition of “impacts”, who will make their case in their responses to the Application questions.
Additionally, the only corresponding question to this Guideline in the 2023 Application stated:
“6. Please describe how this funding could be used to help mitigate the potential negative impacts of the cannabis industry. Maximum 1250 characters”. The 2023 CRGP Application weighted this response with up to 50 of 140 total possible points (up to 36% of the available points).
The Review Team discussed whether it is appropriate to use this funding, which comes from legal, adult-serving cannabis businesses, toward programs meant to mitigate illegal/unregulated cannabis use/abuse.
Staff desires feedback on:
1. Whether the language referring to mitigating impacts of the cannabis industry should remain in the Policy and Guidelines or not. If removed, the Policy and Guidelines can retain language pertaining to projects that help achieve City Strategic Priorities, as articulated in the Strategic Plan 2023 – 2028 (and available on the City Manager’s page on the City website).
If the language remains, should the weight of the relevant question remain at 36-percent? (See Attachment “2023 CRGP Application Questions” for relative weights applied last year). 327
Council Agenda Report- February 13, 2024 Page 3 of 3
Financial Implications: This item requests feedback on the Policy, Guidelines, and Application questions and does not have financial implications. Council will respond to a program funding proposal in the Midyear Budget process.
Environmental Considerations: This item is not a Project subject to review under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA).
Policy Implications: The 2023 Guidelines were consistent with the established Cannabis ‘Community Benefit Fee Revenue Allocation Policy’ adopted on May 18, 2021. If Council were to amend the language pertaining to mitigating potential impacts of the cannabis industry, the ‘Cannabis Community Benefit Fee Revenue Allocation Policy’ would need to be amended by either deleting that language and/or adding additional language. If it is Council’s desire to amend Policy language, Staff will bring the amended Policy back for adoption in a March meeting.
The program itself is created in part to help advance the Strategic Goals and Priorities set forth by Council.
The Cannabis Revenues Grant program is in alignment with, and falls under the guidance of, the “Financial Policies for Granting Funds for Community Benefit and Enhancement Grant Program”. 328

Financial Policies
Granting Funds for Community Benefit and Enhancement
Grant Program
PURPOSE
The purpose of this policy is to establish a framework for providing funding to non-profit organizations, and/or governmental agencies, through city-funded grant program(s). This policy establishes the standards for application, review, and approval in providing funding in a responsible, transparent, and accountable manner consistent with Federal and State laws and regulations as well as City strategic goals and priorities. Providing supplemental grant funding to eligible organizations can help increase the efficiency and impact of programs, projects, and services provided to the community.
ADOPTION AND IMPLEMENTATION
The City Council is responsible for adopting the City's Financial Policies and approving significant policy revisions. The City Manager, or his/her designee, is responsible for developing administrative procedures to implement this policy. In this role, the City Manager is authorized to make minor administrative changes in the guidelines without significant policy impacts.
DEFINITIONS
A Grant is a financial award, provided to fund specific expenditures, used for beneficial goals, and objectives serving a public purpose through a contractual grant agreement.
This policy will outline the procedures in providing grant funding to eligible non-profit agencies.
A Nonprofit Organization is a legal entity organized and operated for a collective, public, or social benefit for purposes other than generating profit. Nonprofit organizations must be designated as nonprofit when created and may only pursue purposes permitted by statues for nonprofit organizations.
A Governmental Agency means an executive, legislative, or judicial agency, department, board, commission, authority, institution, or instrumentality of the federal government or of a state or a county, municipality, or other political subdivision of a state.
A Donation is a gift, contribution for charity, or to benefit a cause with no expectations or contractual obligation of services in return. The California Constitution prohibits public agencies, from making a “gift of public funds”. Therefore, this policy prohibits “donations of public funds”.
