Recognizing May 2024 as

Mental Health Awareness Month: May 1-31, 2024
“Each Mind Matters”
California’s Mental Health Movement and
Mental Health America’s National Mental Health Awareness Month Whereas, mental health is essential to everyone’s overall health and well-being; and Whereas, all Americans experience times of difficulty and stress in their lives; and Whereas, prevention is an effective way to reduce the burden of mental health conditions; and

Proclamation
Recognizing May 2024 as
“National Military Appreciation Month”
Whereas, in 1999 Senator John McCain introduced legislation to designate the month of May as National Military Appreciation Month and both the Senate and House of Representatives adopted resolutions calling for Americans to recognize and honor U.S. Service Members during National Military Appreciation Month; and Whereas, National Military Appreciation Month is celebrated every May and is a declaration that encourages U.S. citizens to observe the month in a symbol of unity; and
Whereas, National Military Appreciation Month honors the current and former members of the U.S. Armed Forces, including those who have died in the pursuit of freedom; and
Whereas, Naval Air Station Fallon is the premier tactical air warfare training center, which includes TOPGUN, the Carrier Airborne Early Warning Weapons School and the Navy Rotary Wing Weapons School. These schools and training are crucial to the defense of the United States and other nations with military ties; and Whereas, the month of May is characterized by six national observances which highlight the contributions of those who have served – Loyalty Day on May 1; Public Service Recognition Week on May 3-9; Victory Day in Europe (V-E Day) on May 8; Military Spouse Appreciation Day on May 8; Armed Forces Day on May 16; and, Memorial Day on May 25.

Now, therefore, the City Council of the City of South Lake Tahoe does herby proclaim May 2024 as “National Military Appreciation Month”, and encourage all citizens to recognize the services of the Naval Air Station Fallon and all current and former military personnel and to take part in all national observances. _____________________ __________________________

Proclamation - Recognizing May 2024 as Building Safety Month.pdf 12 City of South Lake Tahoe
Proclamation
Recognizing May 2024 as
“Building Safety Month”
Whereas, the City of South Lake Taheo is committed to recognizing that our growth and strength depends on the safety and essential role our homes, buildings and infrastructure play, both in everyday life and when disasters strike, and;
Whereas, our confidence in the resilience of these buildings that make up our community is achieved through the devotion of vigilant guardians––building safety and fire prevention officials, architects, engineers, builders, tradespeople, design professionals, laborers, plumbers and others in the construction industry––who work year-round to ensure the safe construction of buildings, and; Whereas, these guardians are dedicated members of the International Code Council, a nonprofit that brings together local, state, territorial, tribal and federal officials who are experts in the built environment to create and implement the highest-quality codes to protect us in the buildings where we live, learn, work and play, and;
Whereas, these modern building codes include safeguards to protect the public from hazards such as hurricanes, snowstorms, tornadoes, wildland fires, floods and earthquakes, and; Whereas, Building Safety Month is sponsored by the International Code Council to remind the public about the critical role of our communities’ largely unknown protectors of public safety––our local code officials––who assure us of safe, sustainable and affordable buildings that are essential to our prosperity, and;
Whereas, “Mission Possible,” the theme for Building Safety Month 2024, encourages us all to raise awareness about building safety on a personal, local and global scale, and; Whereas, each year, in observance of Building Safety Month, people all over the world are asked to consider the commitment to improve building safety, resilience and economic investment at home and in the community, and to acknowledge the essential service provided to all of us by local and state building departments, fire prevention bureaus and federal agencies in protecting lives and property.

Now, therefore, The City Council of the City of South Laker Tahoe do hereby proclaim the month of May 2024 as Building Safety Month and encourage our citizens to join us as we participate in Building Safety Month activities.

Title: Purchase of Two Street Sweepers and One Park Sweeper for the Public Works and Parks Departments
Location: Citywide
Responsible Staff Members: Anush Nejad, Director of Public Works, John Stark, Director of Parks and Recreation, and Phil Harwood, Fleet Supervisor Background: The mission of the City of South Lake Tahoe Public Works and Parks Department is to operate and maintain the transportation network and parks grounds while ensuring that the network functions and facilities are operating safely and efficiently, in compliance with all environmental and regulatory requirements. The city has been investing in replacing outdated equipment to improve and enhance operations and provide better service to the public. The city currently operates two street sweepers close to the end of life. Staff recommends purchasing two new street sweepers to comply with sand and debris collection, environmental regulations, and keeping the city clean. This equipment will be equipped with GPS units, and a real-time map will now be available to the residents to see the progress of the street sweeping. In addition, the parks department needs a sweeper for grounds and park maintenance.

Issue and Discussion: Staff is recommending the purchase of the following equipment:
 Two (2) X-Broom Street Sweepers for citywide sand and debris removal from BP Loader Corporation of Fresno, CA, for $962,756.83. The city will purchase the street sweepers through the Sourcewell Cooperative Agreement, per City SLTCC § 3.45.090 See Attachment 02 for technical specifications and quote.
 One (1) Sweepstar 60 for citywide park maintenance. The city advertised through Planetbids and received one bid from Belkorp AG of Modesto, California, for $70,323.32.

See Attachment 03 for PlanetBids bid details and Attachment 04 for technical specifications.

Financial Implications: The city has requested and received approval from TRPA to allocate $481,378.41 in O&M and Air Quality mitigation funds for the street sweepers. (See Attachment 05). In addition, the City Council approved $406,000 in Measure S funds for the street sweepers and $40,340.71 in General funds for the parks sweeper with the 2024 mid-year budget.

The final price quote for both equipment has increased and requires an additional $75,378.41 in Measure S for the street sweepers and $29,982.61 in General Funds for the park sweeper. The extra cost for the street sweeper is due to the new California Carbon regulations. Below is a summary of the financial details for this procurement:

X-Broom by Nescon
The X-Broom pickup broom was designed for heavy duty,
high production sweeping. The broom is ideal for cleanup behind milling or chipping operations. The extra large
hopper capacity means more time sweeping and less time
looking for a place to dump. The high efficiency hydraulic system and the high torque engine enable the broom to
sweep at engine idle, minimizing brake riding. The unique lift system can dump faster and higher and leaves the center of the truck wide open for maintenance. The PLC control system fully automates the sweeping process enabling
the operator to concentrate on driving and traffic. The broom was designed for easy access to all components for maintenance. All broom components are powder coated to
stand up to harsh environments.

Truck Chassis
The X-Broom can be built with either an International
4400 chassis or a Freightliner M2 chassis. The
International comes with a 310 HP, 950 Ft-lb torque
Maxforce 9 engine. The Freightliner comes with a 300
HP, 860 Ft-lb torque Cummins engine. Both meet 2010
emissions. Both chassis have 50 gallon fuel tanks,
Allison transmissions, power and heated mirrors,
dual steering and controls, Air Ride suspension, for a
smooth ride, and 23,000 lb 2-speed rear axle.

Water System
The water system consists of two electric pumps. One
pump is sufficient for PM-10 operations. The second pump can be selected with the “Max” water function on the touch screen, and is available for a backup. The operator can select an “Economy” mode on the PLC for low water use or the “Max” mode for dry sweeping conditions. The standard water tank is 300 gallons and there is a water level gauge display with a low level alarm. The pumps can run dry
without damage. A front spray bar is standard along with 3 spray tips on each gutter broom and a spray bar in front of the main broom. The system pumps and tips are designed
for misting, (smaller drop size), doing a better job knocking down dust while minimizing water use. The spray bar
valves and pumps are automatically controlled.
26 Elevator System
The elevator is a drag slat type conveyor. Unique features include a longer, steeper design with 14 bucket type slats with replaceable rubber squeegee flights, polyurethane
shaft sprockets, and dual roller chain. The elevator is driven with a hydraulic motor directly mounted to the elevator head shaft. There are no drive chains or sprockets to wear out and replace. There is a standard jam indicator that alerts the operator if there is a blockage. The speed of the conveyor is easily adjusted without tools and the RPM is displayed on the touch screen. The motor can be reversed in case of a jam. The elevator sweeping height is able to be raised and lowered from the cab. The sweeping height can be set into the PLC and this height will be repeated each time the elevator is lowered to sweep. The elevator is tilted back with two hydraulic cylinders.

With hopper raised, all frame components are very
accessible.

Gutter Brooms
The gutter brooms are a full floating, trailing arm, air-bag suspended design. The gutter broom speed is variable and the down pressure is adjusted from the cab. Both brooms are reversible. The extension of the gutter brooms is with pneumatic cylinders and the width is infinitely adjustable.

The steel broom disc protects from curb strikes and has mounting holes for either 4 or 5 segment replaceable gutter brooms. Each gutter broom has standard hydraulic tilting left or right from the cab. No failure prone electric actuators.

The gutter brooms are suspended with an air bag and the linkage joints are all sealed ball bearings. This very low friction design allows for the ability to sweep with extremely light down pressure, greatly extending broom life. There is also a remote extension device for cul-de-sacs.

Main Broom
The main broom is 60” wide with replaceable poly or steel wafers. The suspension of the broom is operated with air cylinders and the down pressure is adjusted by individual left and right side precision regulators. The operator can select a low, medium, or high sweeping down pressure
on the touchscreen. The computer will adjust the down
pressure of the left and right sides of the broom. This will maintain even wear, eliminating broom coning. Broom
adjustments are much easier with this system than the
springs, chains, and adjustment bolts of other systems.

The air suspension will automatically compensate as the broom wears. The broom drive is with a floating hydraulic motor rigidly coupled to the 2” broom shaft. This eliminates the wear and replacement of drive chains and sprockets.

Bearings are sealed, self-aligning, 2-bolt pillow blocks for quick broom changes.
27 Control System
The control used on the X-Broom is an industrial grade
Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) with a 12” touchscreen display panel. All functions of the broom are controlled by the PLC. This enables fully automatic operation of the sweeping functions. The operator just touches a “GO” button and the PLC activates all the functions needed to sweep. This involves starting, lowering, and extending the gutter brooms, starting the elevator and lowering to the desired height, lowering the skid shoes and main broom and starting the broom motor, opening the water spray valves and starting the water pump(s). The PLC always monitors the position of the elevator, insuring that it is fully forward before starting. It also monitors the hydraulic temperature and level and will flash a warning on the display to alert the operator. The PLC will automatically raise all brooms if the transmission is placed in reverse. There is a “Pause” button that will stop the brooms, elevator, and water sprays but leave the brooms down if the sweeper has to stop for traffic. The “STOP” button will stop and raise all brooms, stop and raise the elevator, and turn off the water sprays and pumps. The elevator can be programmed to continue to run for up to 6 seconds to empty out.

With total automatic operation, the operator can concentrate on driving and traffic rather than making sure all the right switches are on.

The compact size of the touchscreen control panel
leaves more space available in the cab versus the
huge consoles of other brands.

28 The PLC has a separate hour meter for all
brooms, elevator, water pumps, hydraulic fan,
PTO, and how many revolutions of the elevator
head shaft. The PLC also keeps a count on how
many times the hopper has dumped. This lets
you track broom wear to actual operating hours
of the individual broom.

There is a screen for Manual
Operation of each component for
testing and diagnostics. The buttons
also give a visual indication of what
is “on” and the status of each limit
switch. The PLC greatly simplifies
the wiring to the valves and solenoids
on the broom.

The hopper dumping functions are controlled with a
joystick on the front panel. When the hopper is full, the operator will push a button on the touchscreen to enable the joystick to control the hopper dumping.

When the joystick is moved up to raise the hopper, the
PLC will tilt the elevator back and insure that the elevator is clear before raising the hopper. The operator can then use the joystick to raise and dump the hopper without
having to look at the screen. After lowering the hopper, the PLC will insure that the hopper is clear and then tilt the elevator forward into the hopper.
29 Hydraulic System
The broom uses three separate hydraulic
pumps. One pump runs the gutter brooms,
one runs the elevator, and one runs the main
broom. Each pump is a load sensing, pressure
compensated, variable volume piston pump.

This is much more efficient than using only one
pump like most other sweepers. With only one
pressure compensated pump, every function
operates at the highest pressure needed for any
single function. This causes higher horsepower
and excess heating of the hydraulic fluid. With
three pumps, each pump only operates at the
minimum pressure needed to carry the load.

The lower horsepower required saves fuel and
does not require the engine to operate above
idle. The hydraulic system runs much cooler
than other single pump designs.

The 40 gallon hydraulic tank is mounted directly behind the cab, high on the left side. This keeps the tank away from the dirt and provides better suction flow to the pumps. There is a large in-tank return filter, glass sight level with a thermometer, and an in-tank float and over-temperature switch for operator warning indicators. Every hose has a female JIC swivel on both ends, making replacement, if necessary, easier.

There are two valve manifolds mounted close to their
functions. This puts the valves very close to the motors and cylinders minimizing the hose lengths. Notice the open
access to the hydraulics and other functions provided by the large horizontal door.
30 Arrow Board
The X-Broom comes standard with high intensity arrows
mounted integrally with the back housing. The arrows are made up of 13 - 24 LED sealed lights. The operator can
select either a left arrow, right arrow, horizontal bar, or both arrows on the touchscreen. The lights are dual intensity, long life, low power amber LEDs. The flash speed can be set by the operator on the touch screen.

Hopper –
Xtra Large
The X-Broom was designed to have the largest hopper
volume in its class. Total volume of 6 Cubic Yards with usable net capacity of 4.9 CY. The hopper net capacity
is at least twice as large as most high-lift sweepers. The elevator load point to the floor is 50 inches. Compare this to 24 inches of most other sweepers. This enables the broom to spend more time sweeping than dumping. The hopper is much larger because of not having a scissor lift underneath taking up half the volume available and the longer elevator loads the hopper from a higher level. The hopper has
a large 42” long discharge door to dump the load in the center of a truck. The door has dual hydraulic cylinders and can be dumped from any height. Hopper loading can
be viewed from the cab window or an access door on the
left side. The hopper floor is a formed 3/16” plate for extra strength, and the hopper is treated inside and out with two coats of powder coat for long life.

Lift System
Unique two-stage vertical mast enables a larger volume
hopper and completely open truck frame for
maintenance and cleaning. With the mast directly behind the cab, the hopper can extend down to the frame. The 19” of vertical height used on other manufacturer’s scissor lifts is used for extra hopper volume. All moving parts roll on sealed bearings with no bushings or sliding blocks to wear out. The hopper is lifted to a height of 12’-6” and the lift capacity is 15,000 pounds.

Note the accessibility for maintenance and
cleaning with hopper raised.

Optionally, you can get a DOT approved arrow board that is made up of 25 4” LED lights. The overall size of the arrow board is 60” wide by 30” tall. The patterns available are left or right sequential chevrons, left or right flashing arrows or bar, and alternating diamonds.

The Annual Report is designed to professionally and effectively communicate the City's financial position and is prepared in compliance with the financial reporting standards of the Government Finance Officers Association.

Report to City Council
Meeting Date: May 7, 2024
Title: City of South Lake Tahoe 2023 Annual Comprehensive Financial Report (Annual Report), including the Independent Auditor's Report on the Basic Financial Statements of the City of South Lake Tahoe; Agreed Upon Procedures Report on Compliance with the Article XIII-B 2022-2023 Appropriation Limit Calculations.

Location: Citywide
Responsible Staff Member: Olga Tikhomirova, Director of Finance (530) 542-7431 Background: Annually the City’s financial records are audited by an independent Certified Public Accounting firm.

The Annual Comprehensive Financial Report (ACFR, or Annual Report) is published by the Finance Department and includes the Independent Auditor’s Reports on the Basic Financial Statements of the City of South Lake Tahoe, which accurately reflect the fiscal position of the City of South Lake Tahoe and its component units at September 30, 2023.

The Annual Report is designed to professionally and effectively communicate the City’s financial position. This report is prepared in compliance with the financial reporting standards of the Government Finance Officers Association of the United States and Canada (GFOA) and includes three major sections:
 Introductory section – transmittal letter, including summary of auditor’s opinion, City profile, economic condition, strategic priorities and financial management.  Financial Section – the City’s independently audited financial statements along with Management’s Discussion and Analysis of the City’s financial position and results of operations for fiscal year 2023.
 Statistical Section – financial trends, revenue and debt capacity, demographic, economic and operating information.

The Annual Report and financial statements are due within 180 days of the close of the fiscal year. This report is required to be distributed annually to the State Controller, the City’s bond trustees, banks, rating agencies and various other outside entities.

The City’s Annual Report is submitted annually to the Government Finance Officers Association (GFOA) award program for their review of readability, efficient organization, and comprehensive reporting. For fifteen consecutive years the City of South Lake Tahoe has received awards for excellence in financial reporting.

Issue and Discussion: Eide Bailly LLP have completed the independent audit using Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) and Generally Accepted Auditing Standards (GAAS) and have issued the attached financial statements and reports as of and for the year ended September 30, 2023. The Auditors have issued an unmodified opinion, stating that the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the City as of 91 Council Agenda Report May 7, 2024 Page 2 of 2
that date. An unmodified opinion is the best opinion an independent auditor can give, and this is what we expect to receive.

Financial Implications: The City’s financial statements report an unassigned general fund balance of $32,758,900 as of September 30, 2023. Reducing this amount by 25% of the 2023- 24 operating budget expenses (committed reserve $13,702,930) and by the balances of funds included with the general fund for reporting purposes (building permit fees $1,817,942 and Measure S Sales Tax general fund $2,346,631), leaves an unassigned fund balance of $14,891,397. Of this amount, commitments of $5,496,681, including $1,003,257 for grant match set-aside, $704,959 for carryforward encumbrances, $110,000 in ARPA funding, $1,678,465 for the Recreation Center Construction project, and $2,000,000 set-aside for projected future years budget deficit, along with $6,289,981 in additional budget appropriations approved by City Council in the first six months of the year, including net expense of $3,481,619 for mid-year budget adjustments, leave $3,104,735 available for one-time projects and expenses, including grant matching requirements.

Policy Implications: Compliance with City Financial Policies – Financial Reporting.

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). 92 93

Report to City Council
Meeting Date: May 7, 2024
Title: Permanent Local Housing Allocation (PLHA) Program Application for the Sugar Pine Village affordable housing project Phase 2B
Location: 1888 Lake Tahoe Boulevard and 1029 Tata Lane
Responsible Staff Member: Jessica Wackenhut Lomeli, Housing Manager Background: Currently under construction, Sugar Pine Village is a 248-unit affordable housing project, with onsite community service facilities on 11.6 acres of land owned by the State of California (State). This project is a result of the Governor’s Executive Order N-06-19, which directed the California Department of General Services (DGS) to identify excess state properties as potential affordable housing development sites. In July 2020, the State announced the State had selected Related Companies of California LLC (Related) in partnership with the St. Joseph Community Land Trust to construct and manage the Sugar Pine Village project.

Since June 2020, the City of South Lake Tahoe has been an active partner in the development of the project. As a first step of financial commitment, the City Council at its November 17th, 2020 meeting authorized a $566,629 loan for predevelopment costs (Resolution 2020-109) and a $1,250,000 loan to purchase banked land coverage at the airport (Resolution 2020-110). The loans were funded by Program Income from repayments of loans from the Redevelopment Agency (RDA) Low- and Moderate-Income Housing Fund and the City’s undesignated reserve fund, respectively. At its October 19, 2021 meeting the City Council also approved a $627,626 loan of HOME Program Income. This brings the City’s total commitment toward the project to $2,441,629.

In addition to direct City commitments, the City has partnered with Related to secure $17,359,470 in Affordable Housing and Sustainable Communities (AHSC) grant funds, $10,551,967 is for the project costs and the remaining $6,807,503 is for city improvements. The City and Related were awarded $5,000,000 in Permanent Local Housing Allocation (PLHA) grant funding. Additionally, Related has also secured $20,000,000 in Multifamily Housing Program (MHP) funding and $3,195,900 in Infill Infrastructure Grant (IIG) funding so far in the financing phase of the project.

To date, approximately $100,000,000 in tax credits and grant applications have been applied for and secured using the City’s initial approximate $2.4 million commitment as a local match.

Project financing and construction is being done in four phases. Phase 1A (68 units) and Phase 2A (60 units) are currently under construction. Site preparation and construction of the modular units for Phase 1A began in fall 2022 and site preparation for Phase 2A began in summer 2023.

The two final phases, 1B and 2B, contain 60 units each.

The table below summarizes the financing strategy for the four phases and shows how the City contributions pair with other funding sources.

HCD released the Permanent Local Housing Allocation (PLHA) program competitive Notice of Funding Availability (NOFA) on March 6, 2024 for approximately $12.5 million. This funding provides grants to local jurisdictions to assist persons experiencing or at risk of homelessness and/or investments that increase the supply of households to those with income of 60% of the Area Median Income. The City and Related were co-applicants for Sugar Pine Village Phase 1A and were successfully awarded the competitive PLHA for $5,000,000 in February 2022.

Issue and Discussion: It is recommended that the City Council adopt a resolution authorizing staff to submit a joint application with Related Companies of California LLC under the PLHA Program for Sugar Pine Village Phase 2B for an amount not to exceed $5,000,000. Up to 5 percent ($250,000) can be used for reimbursement of administrative costs incurred by the City.

Financial Implications: PLHA grant funds are awarded on a competitive basis. If awarded, the allocation of funds would be contingent upon the City entering into a Standard Agreement with HCD. Any future funding agreement associated with the PLHA Program funding award will require City Council approval.

It is anticipated that the City will carry primary responsibility for grant administration and monitoring. However, up to 5 percent of the funding award may be used to covers administrative costs associated with administering the grant to a maximum of $250,000. 291
Council Agenda Report May 7, 2024 Page 3 of 3
Environmental Considerations: California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) Guidelines specify that CEQA does not apply to actions taken by a local government to provide financial assistance to a development approved under SB 35 that receives streamlined approval and that is to be used for housing for persons and families of very low, low, or moderate income, as defined in Section 50093 of the Health and Safety Code. Sugar Pines Village qualifies for this exemption.

Policy Implications: The recommended action is consistent with the City Strategic Plan which identifies supporting the Sugar Pine Village Project as Action Item 1.3.1.

The recommended action is also consistent with the following adopted policies and programs:

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 2-5 The City shall recognize that it will become difficult to attract employees if they cannot afford to purchase or rent housing in South Lake Tahoe. The City shall encourage and support programs and activities that create a robust local economy that provides residents with good paying employment and the means to purchase and/or rent housing in the city. 292

Staff released a Request for Proposal and the selected consulting firm is RSG, Inc. Staff is requesting the appropriation of $50,000 in funds from Workforce Housing Fund Balance for the disparate impact analysis for local preference policy for affordable housing. The Professional Services Agreement is within the City Manager's signing authority, so it will be executed following appropriation of the necessary funds.

Requested Action / Suggested Motions: Pass a Resolution appropriating $50,000 in funds from Workforce Housing Fund balance for a disparate impact analysis for local preference policy for affordable housing.

Report to City Council
Meeting Date: May 7, 2024
Title: Appropriation of $50,000 from Workforce Housing Fund Balance for RSG, INC. for the Disparate Impact Analysis for Local Preference Policy for Affordable Housing Location: City-wide
Responsible Staff Member: Jessica Wackenhut Lomeli, Housing Manager Background: Consistent with the City Council’s adopted 2021-2026 Strategic Plan (Plan), a robust set of housing programs are being developed to address the spectrum of housing needs within the City of South Lake Tahoe (City). Local tenant preference policies are becoming more common throughout jurisdictions in California to protect the most vulnerable populations experiencing displacement pressures. Local workers who are unable to access affordable housing throughout the South Shore region face longer and more costly commutes.

A local tenant preference policy is one tool cities are using to help prioritize the efficient use of scarce affordable housing resources. Senate Bill 649 (SB 649, Cortese), passed September 28, 2022, authorizes low-income housing tax credits and tax-exempt bonds to apply to qualifying affordable housing projects subject to local tenant preferences for lower income local tenants at risk of displacement or who have been displaced. This bill requires the local jurisdiction to ensure that the preference complies with fair housing law, to create a webpage containing the ordinance and supporting materials within 90 days of adoption, and to annually provide the Department of Housing and Community Development a current link to the webpage.

On November 7, 2023 the City Council directed staff to develop a Request for Proposal (RFP) to procure a consultant to conduct a Disparate Impact Analysis for a Local Preference Policy for Affordable Housing.

Issue and Discussion: A Request for Proposals (RFP) was released on February 13, 2024 with proposals due on March 12, 2024. Two proposals were received from consulting firms, RSG, Inc and Economic Consultants Oregon, DBA EcoNorthwest. A selection panel comprised of Jessica Wackenhut Lomeli, Housing Manager; Andrew Black, Financial Services Supervisor; and Hilary Roverud, City Manager, reviewed and scored the submittals on the following criteria totaling 100 points:
 Cover Letter - 5 points
 Executive Summary - 10 points
 Company History, Background and Experience - 20 points  Scope of Work/Implementation - 35 points
 Project Budget – 25 points
297
Council Agenda Report- May 7, 2024 Page 2 of 3
 Description of recent Projects/References – 5 points
Scores of the four panelists were averaged and the review scoring was as follows:

Economic Consultants Oregon (DBA ECOnorthwest) – 75 points RSG, INC. – 94 points
After the review process it was determined that RSG, INC. (RSG) would be the best firm to assist the City with the Disparate Impact Analysis for Local Preference Policy for Affordable Housing. RSG staff are familiar with developing disparate impact reports to develop local preference policy to ensure congruence with Fair Housing state and federal rules and regulations. The proposal from RSG includes the scope of work, project schedule, and optional tasks to be included in the scope of work. The recommended scope of work and project schedule is included as part of the draft Professional Services Agreement (PSA) (Attachment 2).

Staff recommends that the City Council pass a Resolution authorizing the Finance Director to appropriate $50,000.00 into the expense line item 25006024 for the scope of work from RSG INC. The scope includes project management, an analysis of current housing, economic, and demographic data to better understand the nature of displacement, a final disparate impact analysis report and presentation to City Council.

Financial Implications: The preparation of a Disparate Impact Analysis by a consultant is not anticipated to exceed the total budget of $50,000. The budget from RSG is for a total of $30,265. The proposed Professional Services Agreement contains a not to exceed amount of $50,000 to allow for flexibility in the scope of work. The funds available in the Workforce Housing Account # 25006024 will be appropriated by the adoption of the Resolution.

Environmental Considerations: The recommendation in this report is not a project under CEQA, because it does not involve any commitment to a specific project which may result in a potentially significant physical impact on the environment, as contemplated by Title 14, California Code of Regulations, 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 following adopted policies and programs are applicable to this discussion:

City General Plan Housing Element
Policy 2-1. The City shall ensure a stable community by helping tenants to become homeowners and preserving the ability for residents to afford housing in the community where they grew up.

Policy 2-3. The City shall encourage a range of housing options so that people who work in South Lake Tahoe can choose to live in the city.

Policy 2-5. The City shall recognize that it will become difficult to attract employees if they cannot afford to purchase or rent housing in South Lake Tahoe. The City shall encourage and 298

SCOPE OF WORK

PROJECT APPROACH
The following section details our approach and methodology for the Scope of Work requested by the City. RSG understands the City’s desire to analyze the viability of creating a preference policy based upon local fact patterns without creating disparate impacts on protected classes under state and federal law. The data-driven analysis will determine subpopulation displacement for households of color, households of socioeconomic vulnerability and special needs households and the impacts to South Lake Tahoe residents and workers. RSG will review the City’s Housing Element, and Fair Housing state and federal rules and regulations. The Disparate Impact Analysis Report recommendations will be based upon the framework adopted by the City Council on November 7, 2023.

TASK 1: PROJECT MANAGEMENT AND KICK OFF
RSG and staff will kick off the project with a review of the final scope and schedule, identifying data needs and documentation, gathering any additional ideas and input, and surfacing any concerns or issues to be aware of or to be addressed. RSG will review the Strategic Plan, Housing Element, and other supporting documents provided by staff. Staff will identify and provide any relevant data and information sources that may be useful for RSG. Staff will also indicate any high priority needs that have been identified. During implementation of the project, RSG will provide up to four (4) periodic status updates and the kickoff meeting.

TASK 2: ANALYSIS OF CURRENT HOUSING, ECONOMIC, AND DEMOGRAPHIC DATA RSG will conduct an analysis and interpret trends in the housing market, economy, and demographics of the South Lake Tahoe area to determine what type of displacement and to what extent it is occurring. A Geographic Information System will be deployed to visually understand the current community conditions. Variables include but are not limited to:
• Supply and demand of housing,
• Home prices and burdens,
• Rent costs and burden,
311
15 • Density and Overcrowding,
• Affordability Gaps,
• Household Income,
• Jobs to household ratio,
• Industry and associated wages,
• Workforce commutes,
• Population growth,
• Household characteristics (including size),
• School enrollment,
• City Code Enforcement activities, and
• No Fault evictions.

All variables will be compared to nearby jurisdictions, the County, and/or region to establish a baseline of any disparities. Data will be analyzed to highlight any subpopulation displacement for households of color, households of socio-economic vulnerability, and special needs households. Based on RSG’s experience, the data sources used to collect information on each of the variables will include but not be limited to:
• US Census Bureau:
o American Community Survey
o 2020 Decennial Census
• ESRI Business Analyst Reports
• CA DOF Population and Household Projections
• Regional or County Studies (e.g. Tahoe Regional Planning Agency) RSG’s analysis will take into consideration local, state, and federal laws when examining any one variable to determine how much displacement is occurring. Laws to be examined include but are not limited to the City’s Housing Element, the federal Fair Housing Act of 1968, California Unruh Civil Rights Act, HUD Consolidated Plan and any relevant City and County ordinances.

At the conclusion of Task 2, one meeting will occur in which a data summary matrix and findings will be presented to City staff. If needed, a second meeting will be scheduled to address questions and obtain input and insight from City staff.

TASK 3: DISPARATE IMPACT ANALYSIS REPORT
The Disparate Impact Analysis Report will be based upon the data analysis performed in Task 2 and will need to align with California’s Affirmatively Further Fair Housing policies and HUD’s 2020 Disparate Impact Standard Final Rule. It is important to ensure that the Local Preference Policy does not inhibit the ability of the City to secure and comply with various state and federal housing resources.

Each of the three preferences identified in the Local Preference Policy will be addressed.

Preferences 2 and 3 from the RFP (neighborhood residents and South Lake Tahoe residents and workers) will be studied in closer detail to determine what level of displacement experienced by these populations could be eased by the Local Preference Policy.

The data driven analysis will assist the City Council in defining the following:
• Eligibility for Tenant Preferences
• Development Applicability
• Location and Timeframe Applicability
312
16 • Types of Units
• Percentage of Units
The DIA Report will be the basis for the creation of the Local Preference policy with the goal of preventing further displacement of at-risk target populations identified in the report. The DIA Report will include recommendations on the application of the Local Preference Policy to achieve the City’s goal, conform with Fair Housing Law, and ensure fairness based on local data-supported characteristics.

Task 3 will include presenting the draft report to the City. A meeting will be held to obtain City feedback and address questions. Based on the City feedback, a final DIA Report will be prepared.

After final review of the DIA Report, the report’s findings will be presented to the City Council at a public hearing. RSG will prepare all necessary presentation materials, including a PowerPoint, and send two staff members to present the findings. If deemed necessary by City staff, RSG will also present the findings to the City of South Lake Tahoe’s planning commission at a separate public hearing.

IMPLEMENTATION TIMELINE
RSG expects to complete the scope of work within three to four months of an initial kickoff meeting with staff. The following details the general timelines and deliverables for the engagement. RSG anticipates that there may some modification to the schedule by City staff will be discussed at the project kick off meeting.

Tasks Timeframe

PROJECT MANAGEMENT AND RESOURCE ALLOCATION TO ENGAGEMENTS With a staff of 24 employees, RSG manages staff allocation weekly to ensure that clients experience consistent, timely, and high-quality services. When responding to a proposal, RSG considers the expertise needed as well as the availability of personnel and makes assignments at that stage – even before getting a contract. This early commitment of resources minimizes the personnel turnover on engagements, so clients have a consistent team of consultants working on their project. Each month, employees submit a forecast of their three-month (3) workload (after collaborating with project managers and principals) to RSG’s resource 313
17 management team for a review of overall hourly commitments to ensure adequate time allocation for the highest quality work products. Project management is a critical part to RSG’s operations, and we use several tools that all consulting staff employ as part of their daily activities. RSG employs WorkFlowMax, a project and time management application, daily to manage and track hours and milestones on assignments. On a weekly basis, all RSG team members provide updates on each project assignment in Microsoft Teams, and the Principals conduct weekly one-on-one meetings with each of our staff to review all assignments, actual hours, projected hours, and deliverables to ensure jobs are completed on time, within budget, and at our quality standards. RSG also communicates regularly with clients on project updates.

PROJECT BUDGET
Our services for this engagement would be charged on a time-and-materials basis, with a not to exceed amount of $30,265 A breakdown of the costs are provided in the following table. RSG proposes the below rate schedule for these services.

Appropriating $50,000 from Workforce Housing Fund Balance for Disparate Impact Analysis for Local Preference Policy for Affordable Housing

BACKGROUND
A. On November 7, 2024, the City Council directed staff to release a Request for Proposal to find a consultant to conduct a Disparate Impact Study for Local Preference Policy for Affordable Housing.

D. This bill requires the local jurisdiction to ensure that the preference complies with fair housing law, to create a webpage containing the ordinance and supporting materials within 90 days of adoption, and to annually provide the Department of Housing and Community Development a current link to the webpage.

E. Staff has conducted a Request for Proposals (RFP) and selected RSG, Inc to assist the City with the Disparate Impact Analysis for Local Preference Policy for Affordable Housing.

The total contract amount is not to exceed $50,000 and is within City Manager singing authority.

BASED ON THE FACTS SET FORTH IN THE BACKGROUND, BE IT RESOLVED, that the City Council of the City of South Lake Tahoe:

__________________________________
Meeting Date: May 7, 2024
Agenda Item #:9
Agenda Item: 2023 - 2024 Position Allocation List Amendment Executive Summary: The budget for the fiscal year 2023-2024 has been approved by the City Council.

Alongside the budget, a resolution has been passed that approves the list of allocated permanent positions for the same period. Staff is requesting an amendment to the Position Allocation List by revising the current position of Associate Civil Engineer, Assistant Engineer to Associate Civil Engineer, Associate Architect. The Associate Architect will work on various projects, including the new Recreation and Aquatics Center project, Fire Station 3 project and other sustainability and facility projects. It's important to note that this change will not increase the total number of allocated permanent positions or require additional budget.

Requested Action / Suggested Motions: Pass a Resolution approving amendments to FY 2023 – 2024 List of Allocated Permanent Positions by adding the position of Associate Architect and Corresponding Salary Table.

Report to City Council
Meeting Date: May 7, 2024
Title: Amending FY 2023 – 2024 List of Allocated Positions by Adding Associate Architect Location: Citywide
Responsible Staff Member: Ember Buckman, Human Resources Manager, (530) 542-6050 Background: The Municipal budget for FY 2023-2024 has been approved by the City Council, along with the Resolution 2023-078 approving the List of Allocated Permanent Positions. However, an amendment is now required to the List of Allocated Permanent Positions to ensure the recruitment of skilled staff members who can efficiently achieve the City Council's priorities and goals.

Issue and Discussion: The current List of Allocated Permanent Positions includes: Associate Civil Engineer, Assistant Engineer, with a total of 2.5 allocated positions. Two of these positions have already been filled by Associate Civil Engineers. The City has been actively recruiting to fill the remaining Associate Civil Engineer position.

After extensive recruitment and classification discussion with the Public Works Director, Anush Nejad, it was discovered that the remaining Associate Civil Engineer position is no longer needed and that an Architect would be more beneficial to the City to accomplish City Council priorities and goals, including the new Recreation and Aquatics Center project. It was also identified that the Assistant Engineer position is no longer required.

Therefore, Saff is requesting an amendment to the 2023-2024 List of Allocated Permanent Positions from Associate Civil Engineer, Assistant Engineer to Associate Civil Engineer, Associate Architect, along with a corresponding salary schedule for the Associate Architect which will mirror the Associate Civil Engineer Salary schedule. This change will enable the Public Works department to complete City Council priorities and goals.

It's important to note that there will be no change in the number of allocated positions, and there will be no additional budget needed for this purpose.

Financial Implications: There are no financial consequences associated with amending the List of Allocated Permanent Positions
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). 321
Council Agenda Report May 7, 2024 Page 2 of 2
Policy Implications: This proposed amendment to the Allocated Permanent Positions List will provide the expertise necessary to complete the new Recreation and Aquatics Center Project, supporting the City Council's Priorities and Goals.

Agenda Item #:10
Agenda Item: Levy of Assessment for Ski Run Business Improvement District for Business License Year 2024/2025
Executive Summary: The City Council must hold a public hearing and shall consider all protests from business owners within the Ski Run Business Improvement District, received either in writing and submitted to the City Clerk prior to the public hearing or presented orally at the public hearing. If a majority of businesses (based on their BID assessment) do not provide written protests, the Council may adopt a new Resolution confirming the report as originally filed or as changed. This will allow the Finance Department to include the BID assessments with the annual business license renewal billing beginning in May for the 2024/2025 business tax year.

Requested Action / Suggested Motions: Pass a Resolution confirming the Ski Run Business Improvement District annual report and levying the assessment for business license year 2024/2025.

Responsible Staff Member: Ben Hannah - Accountant II
Reviewed and Approved By: Olga Tikhomirova, Director of Finance Susan Blankenship, City Clerk Heather Stroud, City Attorney
