Report to City Council
Meeting Date: April 21, 2026
Title: Police Boat Safety and Enforcement Program Funding Acceptance and Program Participation State FY 26/27
Location: Police Department
Responsible Staff Member: Lt. Russell Liles, (530) 542-6120 Background: The City provides a Police Boating Safety and Enforcement Program each year for residents and visitors of our community. This program begins approximately two weeks prior to Memorial Day weekend and ends approximately two weeks after Labor Day weekend. The program is funded every year by a state boating safety grant combined with El Dorado County vessel property taxes. The program provides the city with funding to staff and operate the Police Department patrol boat on the waters of Lake Tahoe during this time.
Issue and Discussion: The Police Boating Safety Program is funded by two revenue sources. The first source is financial aid from California State Parks, Division of Boating and Waterways. The South Lake Tahoe Police Department applies for this aid annually. On November 4, 2025 Council granted authorization for staff to apply for financial aid through the California Division of Boating and Waterways.
South Lake Tahoe PD has been granted financial aid and staff is now requesting Council to accept and authorize participating in the program. The financial aid period is from July 1, 2026 through June 30, 2027 and will be submitted to request a program cost reimbursement in an amount of up to $39,953 from California State Parks, Division of Boating and Waterways.
The second revenue source is from El Dorado County vessel property taxes. The amount of vessel property taxes allocated for the City’s Police Boating Safety and Enforcement Program for the 2026/2027 fiscal year is $59,508.00.
To receive this funding, California State Parks requires the City Council to authorize the Mayor, or the Police Chief, to sign the application for financial aid and the financial aid program agreement. They also authorize the Mayor, or the Police Chief, to sign each reimbursement claim on behalf of the city per the agreement.
Financial Implications: There will be no additional impact to the general fund. The program will be funded as described above in the amount up to $99,461.66. Expenditures for the program will be reimbursed quarterly. Effective July 1, 2026; budget in account # 237 02110 should be amended as follows:

Agenda Item #:7
Agenda Item: Grant Application to California Division of Boating and Waterways for Boating Safety and Enforcement Equipment
Executive Summary: Key Police Marine Unit equipment needs upgrading, including replacing the ineffective loudspeaker with a Long-Range Acoustic Device (LRAD) for clear, long-distance communication; replacing the outdated, unserviceable FLIR system with a modern thermal imaging unit for improved low-visibility operations; and upgrading the vessel’s navigation and chart plotting system for safer, more accurate patrol and response. If awarded funding through the Boating Safety and Enforcement Equipment Grant, these upgrades would come at no cost to the City. Staff will return to Council for acceptance if funding is received.

Title: Boating Safety and Enforcement Equipment Grant Application Authorization Location: Police Department
Responsible Staff Member: Lt. Russell Liles, (530) 542-6120 Background: The City provides a Police Boating Safety and Enforcement Program each year for residents and visitors of our community. The California Division of Boating and Waterways (DBW) offers grant funding to local government agencies to purchase boating safety and equipment through the Boating Safety and Enforcement Equipment Grant Program (BSEE). Staff is looking to apply to the Equipment Grant to purchase, replace and/or upgrade boating safety and law enforcement equipment for an amount up to $100,000.
Issue and Discussion: South Lake Tahoe PD currently operates our one police boat on Lake Tahoe, typically between Memorial Day and Labor Day. Police boat operations are funded by a financial aid program through Division of Boating and Waterways and El Dorado County vessel taxes.
As part of the proposed grant application, we seek to acquire and upgrade key equipment to enhance Police Marine Unit capabilities, including replacing the current ineffective loudspeaker with a Long-Range Acoustic Device (LRAD) to provide clear, amplified communication over extended distances for public safety and enforcement operations; replacing the existing Forward-Looking Infrared (FLIR) system, which is no longer effective or serviceable, with a modern thermal imaging unit to improve visibility during nighttime and low-visibility conditions; and upgrading the vessel’s marine chart plotting and navigation system to ensure accurate positioning, current mapping, and safer, more efficient patrol and emergency response operations.
With authorization from Council, staff will apply to the Division of Boating and Waterway Boating Safety and Equipment Grant to receive funding to replace the police boat outboard motors. The grant application period is March 16, 2026 – April 30, 2026. If awarded funding through the grant, staff will return to Council for acceptance of the grant funding.
Financial Implications: None. This item is only a request for authorization to apply for the Equipment Grant. This is a 100% reimbursement grant for eligible purchases from Boating Safety & Enforcement Equipment Grant Program (BSEE).
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 264

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: The police boating safety program supports the City of South Lake Tahoe’s Strategic Plan priority “3 Public Safety”.

Authorizing the Police Department to apply for the Boating Safety and Enforcement Equipment Grant Program (BSEE) through the Division of Boating and Waterways (DBW) for funding to purchase, replace and/or upgrade boating safety and law enforcement equipment for an amount up to $100,000
BACKGROUND
A. The City of South Lake Tahoe Police Department operates a Police Boating Safety and Enforcement Program.
B. The police boats loudspeaker is ineffective from long distance or adverse conditions.

C. The police boats Forward-Looking Infrared (FLIR) system is no longer effective or serviceable. If awarded The Boating and Safety Grant, funding received would cover the cost of replacing the police boats FLIR with a modern thermal imaging unit to improve visibility during nighttime and low-visibility conditions.
D. The police boats marine chart plotting system is failing and no longer service supported. If awarded The Boating and Safety Grant, would cover the cost of upgrading the police boats plotting and navigation system to ensure accurate positioning, current mapping, and safer, more efficient patrol and emergency response operations.
E. If awarded the grant, staff will return to Council to accept the funding from the Division of Boating and Waterways.

Agenda Item #:8
Agenda Item: Amendment to Agreement with Stantec Consulting Services, Inc. for Construction Support Services for the Tahoe Valley Stormwater and Greenbelt Improvement Project (Phase 2) Executive Summary: The Tahoe Valley Stormwater and Greenbelt Improvement Project, split into two phases, is a vital community and environmental improvement project. Phase 1 of the project is complete as of September 2025. Phase 2 construction began in 2025 and will be completed by the end of the 2026 construction season. The initial contract with Stantec Consulting Services, Inc. (Stantec), previously Cardno, to provide professional engineering services for the Tahoe Valley Stormwater and Greenbelt Improvement Project (Attachment 05), was entered into on January 14, 2020. With Phase 2 construction continuing into the 2026 season, some additional construction services support will be required from Stantec as the engineer of record for the project. The anticipated not to exceed budget needed for Stantec to provide construction support through completion of the Phase 2 construction is $9,700.
Requested Action / Suggested Motions: Pass a Motion authorizing and directing the Mayor to execute Amendment No.12 to the Professional Services Agreement with Stantec Consulting Services, Inc. for a not-to-exceed amount of $9,700 for a total not-to-exceed contract amount of $796,300.

Report to City Council
Meeting Date: April 21, 2026
Title: Amendment No. 12 to Professional Services Agreement between Stantec Consulting Services, Inc. and the City of South Lake Tahoe for the Tahoe Valley Stormwater and Greenbelt Improvement Project
Location: Tahoe Valley drainage watershed, inclusive to the “Greenbelt” area located behind The Crossing (Refer to Attachment 02 for the Project Location Map.)
Responsible Staff Member: Brianna Greenlaw, Senior Civil Engineer Background: The Tahoe Valley Stormwater and Greenbelt Improvement Project is a vital community and environmental improvement project. Based on feedback from the public received during the Area Plan process, subsequent design meetings and public survey for the Greenbelt area, the project was developed to provide the benefits requested by the community and stakeholders, including drainage, water quality, public space, new naturalized play structures, and improved active transportation paths.
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 consisted 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.
Phase 1 of the project is complete as of September 2025. Phase 2 construction began in 2025 and will be completed by the end of the 2026 construction season.
The initial contract with Stantec Consulting Services, Inc. (Stantec), previously Cardno, to provide professional engineering services for the Tahoe Valley Stormwater and Greenbelt Improvement Project (Attachment 05), was entered into on January 14, 2020. For a variety of reasons such as building upon previous scope, adding time to the contract, or needing additional construction support services due to the phasing and implementation schedule of the project, eleven (11) amendments have been executed (Attachment 06).
Issue and Discussion: With Phase 2 construction continuing into the 2026 season, some additional construction services support will be required from Stantec as the engineer of record for the project. This includes addressing contractor requests for information (RFIs), material submittal reviews, contract plan clarifications, revisions, and support of approved change orders, permitting clarifications and regulatory agency coordination, and completing site visits as requested by the City. The anticipated not to exceed budget needed for Stantec to provide construction support through completion of the Phase 2 construction is $9,700. Attachment 04 includes Exhibit A – the scope of services for amendment number 12 to Stantec’s contract.
Financial Implications: Existing budget in the project account allows for this Amendment No. 12 (Attachment 03) for consultant services. As reflected in the Phase 1 Change Order Ratification approved by City Council on February 10, 2026, 8% ($532,699.40) of the approved and budgeted 10% project contingency ($668,852.00) was utilized for Phase 1 construction. This allows for a remainder of $136,152.60 of unused 269
Council Agenda Report April 21, 2026 Page 2 of 2
contingency funds that can be utilized for ancillary expenses such as this consultant amendment, required construction related wildlife surveys, survey monument preservation, labor code compliance, and materials testing that will be required in the 2026 construction season to successfully complete the implementation of Phase 2. After all associated project expenses have been paid and Phase 2 is complete, remaining funding should be available for other projects.
Environmental Considerations: The Planning Commission adopted the CEQA, Mitigated Negative Declaration on May 9, 2019, SCH# 20190292152.
Policy Implications: Installing storm drain infrastructure and water quality improvements assist with advancing the City Council Strategic Priority, Protect the Natural Environment, by 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). 270

EXHIBIT A
SCOPE OF SERVICES
C-007-2020
286
EXHIBIT A
SCOPE OF SERVICES
The City of South Lake Tahoe (“City”) agrees to retain the design engineering consulting firm, Cardno (“Consultant”) to perform the scope of engineering services as outlined below for the Tahoe Valley Greenbelt and Stormwater Improvement Project (“Project”). The following Scope of Services describes various work tasks the City may authorize the Consultant to perform during the life of the agreement.
The Tahoe Valley Greenbelt and Stormwater Improvement Project (Project) is an important environmental project in the City of South Lake Tahoe (City) that will provide a unique opportunity to incorporate both stormwater and recreational improvements in one comprehensive Project. The Project area is composed of commercial areas, residential areas, open space, and a State Highway. The open space is currently under-utilized for stormwater quality treatment and provides key opportunities for recreation benefits. Project area constraints consist primarily of property ownership, a limited existing collection and treatment system for stormwater runoff, and an unplanned and under-utilized recreation component.
Building upon the planning work previously completed by the City, the Project final engineering design will result in complete civil plans for the proposed project improvements. The Cardno team understands that the final design must be supported by sound science in the areas of hydrology, hydraulics, erosion control, recreation, botany, and stormwater quality pollutant load reductions to meet the City’s project goals.
The City has acquired Proposition 1 planning grant funding from the State Water Resource Control Board (SWRCB) for the delivery of Plans, Specifications, and Estimate (PS&E) bid documents for the Project. However, the amount of Prop 1 planning grant funding is insufficient to complete PS&E bid documents for the entire Project area. The City and Consultant have determined the available planning grant funding is enough to complete the 60% PS&E bid documents. Therefore, the City will authorize the Consultant upon execution of this base agreement, to begin tasks specific to completing the 60% level of PS&E documents.
Supplemental planning grant funding is being pursued by the City at this time. The California Tahoe Conservancy (CTC) has expressed a strong interest in funding the Project. A planning grant application was submitted to the CTC and is expected to be approved by the CTC Board in March 2020.
The upper Project area, Greenbelt area, and lower Project area are defined as the West Area, Central Area and North Area respectively and are further defined as follows:
• West Area is the Project area located above Emerald Bay Road; • Central Area is the Greenbelt Area located between Lake Tahoe Blvd and Emerald Bay Road; and • North Area is located between Tahoe Keys Blvd and Barton Avenue.
C-007-2020
287
As additional project planning funds are acquired, Public Works may authorize through amendment(s) to this base agreement, additional work tasks, including but not limited to 100% bid documents, providing property acquisition services, bid support, and construction engineering services. A single task or a bundle of work tasks authorized by the City may be negotiated individually to determine mutually acceptable compensation to the Consultant. The Consultant shall not begin on unauthorized work tasks until an amendment specifically adds the work to the base agreement.
Base agreement work authorized with the execution of this base agreement is specific to performing work tasks required to complete the 60% level of PS&E documents. Below and on the following pages is Cardno’s proposed scope of work for the professional services to develop final civil plans and supporting technical documents for the Project.
Task 1 Project Management, Meetings, and Public Outreach Timely and consistent project management, public outreach and coordination are critical parts of any project in the Lake Tahoe Basin. The following are the sub-tasks for Project Management, Public Outreach and Coordination.
Subtask 1.A Project Management and Coordination
The Project Management and Coordination sub-task includes the internal Cardno team coordination and communication efforts required to perform the work along with monthly budgeting, invoicing, filing, sub-consultant coordination and invoicing and general project administration. To facilitate these tasks, Cardno will assign a project coordinator who is dedicated to the project from inception to completion.
This allows for an efficient work process that benefits both the City and Project design team.
The Cardno team will establish effective communication between the parties involved, including; City planning and engineering staff, utilities, the public, business owners; and funding, permitting and regulatory agencies. Our experience shows that although the primary point of contact will be the Project Manager, direct communications between City staff and designated Task Leaders should occur when needed for efficiency of certain project work efforts. All internal team communications will be led by the Project Manager who will coordinate closely with Task Leaders.
Subtask 1.B – Public Outreach/Property Owner Meeting
The Cardno team will support the City in public outreach efforts at a key juncture during project development, most likely in the form of a public meeting. The public meeting (1) will provide a venue for facilitated communications between City staff and business owners, residents, and other stakeholders.
The format of the public meeting will be based on the meeting purpose and intended audience.
Design Workshop, Inc. (DWI) will assist Cardno with the organization and presentation of design elements for the public meeting. Cardno anticipates the meeting will be in an open house format where participants can drop-in, read displays and other informative materials, and offer comments. Facilitators will be available to discuss issues and form discussion groups. This format will allow community members to learn about and discuss the proposed project in an informal environment. Depending on the goals and purpose of the meeting, Cardno may use additional techniques, including comment cards C-007-2020
288
and dot exercises. Cardno can replicate these activities in an online survey format to provide an opportunity for people who may not be able to attend the meeting to still participate.
Subtask 1.C – Funding and Regulatory Agency/TAC Meetings The City and the Cardno team, along with funding and permitting agencies, will hold meetings at key junctures during the project development process to ensure all parties are informed and all project design considerations and requirements are being met, and to provide general coordination. For the purposes of this scope Cardno is proposing to allocate time for up to two (2) funding, regulatory, and/or TAC meetings.
Each of the TAC meetings will be attended by the Cardno Project Manager and one key Task Leader, and a Project Assistant to take meeting minutes. Cardno will coordinate the TAC meetings with the TAC members, provide an agenda for the meetings and additionally develop a PowerPoint or other suitable presentation materials summarizing the meeting objectives and presenting items to be covered for discussion. After the meeting, the meeting minutes will be developed/formalized and distributed to all meeting attendees.
Subtask 1.D – City Planning Commission/City Council Meeting This project may require presentations to the City Council or City Planning Commission. The primary purpose of the meeting will be to provide a project update and respond to inquiries from the City.
Attendance at the meeting (1 City Council or 1 City Planning Commission as determined by the City) will occur at or following a key deliverable point within the project schedule (i.e., completion of 60 percent or 90 percent designs as determined by the City).
The Cardno team will provide input on the purpose, outline, and content for meeting presentations and provide graphics developed as part of other tasks to help communicate project elements. Cardno’s efforts will include developing a PowerPoint presentation for the selected City Council or City Planning Commission meeting. Cardno’s Project Manager and one key Task Leader will attend the meeting, either presenting or supporting the City project manager, as directed by the City.
Task 1 Deliverables:
> Public Notification (flyer) and presentation materials for one public meeting (1) > PowerPoint presentation, agendas and meeting minutes for each TAC meeting (2) > PowerPoint presentation for one City Council or Planning Commission meeting (1) Task 1 Assumptions:
> The overall duration of this contract is twelve (12) months > City will provide meeting venues
> City will provide postage for any mailings/flyers
> City will provide mailing list (and contact list) for all property owners, business owners and residents in the Project area that is current and updated

Task 2 Supplemental Site Surveying and Basemap Updates
The previous project effort obtained preliminary survey information throughout the project area, including survey control establishment, aerial (LiDAR) data collection, and limited field surveying within the project area. Field survey consisted of the Greenbelt area and major downstream drainage features.
Although previous survey efforts were adequate for preliminary planning, preliminary design and environmental review, a detailed field survey is required to develop an accurate basemap for final project design and development of accurate construction documents. The Cardno team proposes to perform targeted survey data collection to obtain the necessary level of information.
Cardno has teamed with Morton & Pitalo, Inc. (M&P), to provide topographic land surveying for the Project. M&P is an experienced land surveying firm with extensive experience throughout the Sierra Nevada range. Site survey is required within the proposed Project improvement areas to define existing drainage courses and site topography, locate existing right-of-way features and roadways, tie-in existing utility facilities, locate predominate structures and landscape elements (buildings, fences, trees, rock outcrops, etc.), and provide accurate property information for design of the Project improvements.
The anticipated survey areas for the base mapping where design work will be performed, as described starting in Task 4, generally includes the following locations and/or project elements:
The following areas will be included a part of this contract • Greenbelt Area (to southeast of “Y”/US 50)
o Stormwater collection and conveyance; underground feature (B St, Barton Ave, 4th St) o Water quality detention basins, greenbelt meadow; surface feature (Greenbelt, 3rd St) o Bike/multi-use trails, and recreational site amenities; surface features (Greenbelt) o Lighting and landscape elements; surface features (Greenbelt) The following areas are included under a separate contract - [fall/winter of 2019] • Bonanza area (to west of US 50)
o Roadway features, cross sections, existing stormwater and public utilities (F Street, D Street, and Bonanza Ave)
o Water quality detention basins (3) sites on public parcels; land topo features and trees • Peripheral greenbelt area (to southeast of “Y”/US 50, between B St and Barton Ave) o Roadway features, cross sections, existing stormwater and public utilities (B Street, Barton Avenue, and 4th Street)
• 3rd Street Basins (between Barton Ave and Helen Ave)
o Roadway features, cross sections, existing stormwater and public utilities (3rd Street, Barton Avenue, and Helen Avenue)
o Water quality detention basins (2) sites on public parcels; land topo features and trees • James/Eloise and Stormwater Outfall (to north of US 50) o Roadway features, cross sections, existing stormwater and public utilities (3rd Street, James Avenue, Eloise Avenue, Council Rock Drive, and Tahoe Keys Boulevard) o Water quality detention basins (2) sites on public parcels; land topo features and trees C-007-2020

Subtask 2.A Survey Control
Previous efforts have established a baseline survey control across most of the Project area. While the survey control is project-wide, the control does not cover all of the areas requiring detailed survey, and the control has been in place for a few years. Therefore, verification and some resetting and placement of additional survey control will be required to accurately perform the topographic surveying of the project area and establish a more complete control network for civil design and future construction.
M&P will begin by confirming existing control and resetting any damage/destroyed control set previously. Additional survey control will be set based on coordination efforts with the design team.
Cardno will provide a drawing sheet within the plan set depicting the project control points and provide northing and easting locations in table format within the drawing for all relevant control points.
The additional/reset survey control will be set on the same datum and projection as the previous survey data (California State Plane, Zone 2).
Subtask 2.B Topographic and Planimetrics Survey
M&P will provide the necessary field surveying efforts for the project and collect the additional field information (e.g., topography, and planimetrics survey data) to develop an accurate updated base map for the project area.
The initial efforts associated with this task will be the review of the proposed project features and the existing survey data. Based on this review, the Cardno team will determine where, and to what extent, Cardno needs additional field survey data (planimetrics and topography) for proper design of the project. For selected areas of detailed topo mapping (e.g. Greenbelt/Central Area), Cardno will develop 1-foot contours and include 25-foot cross-sections of any adjacent pertinent roadways, where surface improvements are targeted. For segments of roadways and project areas where the main project element is predominately underground stormwater infrastructure, a limited yet appropriate level of topo survey data will be collected as the proposed improvements are less dependent on existing surface features. Where applicable, the planimetric survey will include survey shots of all found features (e.g., buildings, pavements, curbs, sidewalks, fences, walls, signs, utility poles, traffic signals, utility vaults and boxes, utility risers, underground utility manholes and inverts where accessible, stormwater facilities and drainage channels, trees, rock outcropping, and predominate landscape features) within the targeted survey/project area.
Subtask 2.C – Topographic Base Map
The Cardno team will compile the previously developed base map data with subsequent field survey data collected as part of this effort and develop a detailed project base map for the final design efforts.
The draft base map will be field checked by walking the project site, confirming all aspects are correct, and documenting any errors. The base map will then be updated, providing the Cardno team and the City with an accurate base map that can be trusted throughout the design process.
The process outlined above is an ideal approach to ensure the topographic and planimetric features are accurate. However, the boundary survey cannot be performed in such a manner. The boundary information collected during the field survey (Subtask 2B) will be used to develop boundary mapping in conjunction with subdivision and record maps available through El Dorado County and the Sierra Pacific C-007-2020
291
Power Company GIS parcel mapping. Unfortunately, older areas of Lake Tahoe, such as the project area, have inconsistent boundary information. M&P will collect available property record map information from the County Recorder’s Office that will be used to develop a more accurate parcel boundary layer for key properties adjacent to the project improvements. This parcel layer will be translated and rotated to the mapped field boundary points as a “best fit” determined by a licensed land surveyor, to create a design-level property boundary map. For easement acquisitions, additional survey and mapping may be required to rectify material discrepancies and conflicts identified between the record mapping and field data. This effort would be completed as part of an optional Property Acquisition Task, upon direction from the City, once final acquisition properties are identified.
The Cardno team will collect utility pothole location data, updated utility grid map information from respective utility companies, and add any relevant information to refine the updated project base mapping (defined/scoped under Task 4). Where applicable, utility grid information can be rectified to field survey points and modified where survey information is of better quality than the grid maps (USA and visible information [manholes, valves, etc.] field surveyed).
Subtask 2.D – Property Boundary Mapping
The available property boundary information used for the planning/preliminary design phase was approximate, including county database and GIS based property data, and though relative for the preliminary layout of project elements, it is not sufficient for the final design documents.
M&P will prepare property boundary mapping for the right of ways of the streets and parcels proposed for stormwater quality basins and the greenbelt improvements within the Project area; and incorporate the property information with the project base map. The basis of the property boundary mapping will be from record information, and not the result of a detailed corner/monument field survey. Record subdivision maps, assessor maps and other recorded information available through the City and County will be the source of data. The property boundary mapping will be best fit to fences, utility poles, common improvements and other predominate physical/land features as an overlay to the Topographic and Planimetrics Survey.
Task 2 Deliverables:
> Electronic files of control points in Autodesk Civil3D format (California State Plane Coordinate System Zone 2, NAD83 for horizontal, and NAVD88 for elevation) > Project Basemap in Autodesk Civil3D format
Task 2 Assumptions:
> Survey control will be established; however, protection from manmade or natural disturbances is not guaranteed. Future use of the control for construction will require verification, and potential reestablishment, prior to use for construction. > Accuracy of the “best fit” property boundary mapping is not certain, though expected to have a reasonable level of confidence within 3-feet or less horizontal offset.
Task 3 Permitting
The Cardno team will assist the City in developing the appropriate permit application submittal packages that will be required for project implementation. The applications will combine the resource analysis C-007-2020
292
that was conducted for the project-level initial study (IS)/mitigated negative declaration (MND)/initial environmental checklist (IEC) with the design information developed for project construction (e.g., 60 percent and 90 percent design plan sets). Cardno will follow a process that has been successfully used for similar public service and environmental improvement program (EIP) projects in the Tahoe Basin and is based on early and continuous communication and coordination between the design team and the agencies. The permits and key supporting documents that are anticipated, and scoped/budgeted for the project include:
• TRPA EIP Project Permit
• TRPA Soils/Hydro Report and Findings
• State Water Resources Control Board Section 401 Water Quality Certification • USACE Section 404 Authorization (pursued under the authority of a Nationwide Permit) • Lahontan Regional Water Quality Control Board (RWQCB) Notice of Intent for Coverage under the Tahoe General Construction Permit (Board Order No. R6T-2016-0010) • Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP), in draft format complying with the Tahoe General Construction Permit
• Caltrans Hydrology Review/Coordination, and Encroachment Permit During the development of the 60 percent design plans, the Cardno team will coordinate with the appropriate agencies to obtain written documentation confirming the required permits and submittal timelines that will be necessary to meet the project construction schedule. The Cardno team is familiar with these permit application submittal requirements and will coordinate early and often with the regulatory agencies to ensure the project construction schedule will be met.
Permit applications and the project-level SWPPP (draft format) will be prepared during the 90 percent design step. Permit application submittal packages will include the project’s 90 percent design plan set.
Agency requests and permit conditions will then be incorporated into the 100 percent design.
Task 3 Deliverables:
> Application submittal packages for the permits identified in this task - TRPA EIP Project Permit Application
- State WRCB Section 401 Water Quality Certification
- USACE Section 404 Authorization
- Lahontan RWQCB NOI, and draft SWPPP document
- Caltrans Encroachment Permit
> Project-level SWPPP (1 draft and 1 working final)
Task 3 Assumptions:
> Findings from the previous Aquatic Resources Delineation Report (under separate contract) will be used to inform the project design and permitting efforts. > No Forest Service-managed land and/or USFS funding is assumed for the Project. > For California Tahoe Conservancy lands identified for use in association with the Project, required License Agreements are not included with this scope/budget (to be determined with optional Task 8, for easement and property acquisition assistance).
C-007-2020
293
> The Project is a public service project, improving area-wide stormwater infrastructure and implementing public recreation amenities that are suitable to the Greenbelt/Central Area land use and capability. Because of the nature of the project, the assumption is that USACE and Lahontan Water Board will not require compensatory mitigation as a condition of authorizations. > Task 3 assumes one submittal of CWA Section 404 and 401 permits applications that will be based on the 60% Design Plan (or subsequent design plan, at the discretion of the City), providing supplemental project information to USACE and Lahontan, as necessary. Our approach is to present a maximum-case impact estimation to waters of the U.S and to waters of the State. A subsequent change in the project design or location, which results in impacts that exceed this maximum-case impact estimation, may trigger additional permitting actions (e.g., reapplication or change from a Nationwide Permit authorization to a Letter of Permission) that are not included in Task 3. > If federal funding is obtained for any aspect/portion of the project from a funding source other than the USFS, additional NEPA, and potentially CEQA efforts would be required. The most likely funding scenario would be transportation funding through Caltrans from the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA). If federal funding is obtained, the Project would become “federalized” and additional environmental compliance, and other project aspects, will be required but are not included within the current Project scope/budget.
Task 4 60% Design Documents
Development of the 60 percent design detail is a critical step in the design development process, as the design evolves from a general/preliminary level to a detailed design level. The previously completed 30 percent design plans provide a preliminary design that will serve as the basis for the overall goals and function of the project improvements. In coordination with the City, Cardno will add detail to the plans and cost estimates to address key project challenges and provide necessary constructability information to show how the project is to be built and establish a clear budget for the construction costs.
The Cardno team will provide the City with key updates, and encourages informal communication with the City PM on a regular basis (standing phone calls). This collaboration will promote a cohesive design approach and provide our team with feedback on critical design elements, impacts, and potential construction constraints.
Preliminary Design Report
The Cardno team will assist the City and prepare a preliminary design report, in direct response to the State Water Board Prop 1 grant agreement requirement for the Project stormwater planning. The preliminary design report is to focus on implementation of the Project and include a summary of data collection completed in the planning phase to support the design effort as follows:
• Geotechnical study,
• Hydrology study, and hydraulics analysis,
• Land use study, and maps of public lands, and
• Other technical studies completed to support the project design The preliminary design report will be developed during the 60% design phase and conclude at this step in the project delivery process. The design report will not be updated with each design iteration.
C-007-2020
294
Design Development
The Cardno team will utilize updated survey and basemap (Task 2) data along with information obtained as part of the update and refinement of the project hydrologic/hydraulic analysis (Task 7) to guide the design process. The 60 percent design plans will be developed on the basis of the preferred alternative reflected in the 30 percent preliminary design, and address requirements resulting from the environmental review, including construction and/or mitigation measures. It is noted herein that the Third Street “treated water” pipeline as shown in the 30 percent plans, is assumed to be removed from the design going forward (and is not part of this scope) as a project element due to cost/benefit concerns as previously discussed with City staff.
The plans will represent an industry standard 60 percent design level and incorporate the Project elements desired for construction. The plan set will be comprised of the following types of plan sheets:
• Title sheet, notes and legend
• Index sheets, survey control and alignments
• Temporary controls for traffic, staging, storage and access, and BMP plans • Plan and profile civil sheets for stormwater system and bike trail/roadway surface improvements
• Greenbelt site amenity plan sheets
• Grading sheets and cross-sections for major earthwork components (detention basins, greenbelt)
• Landscape and irrigation plan sheets
• Lighting and electrical plans
• Typical details for project facilities (including city standard details where applicable) In order to streamline the design process, and to provide a reduced design development cost in the most efficient manner possible, while also providing design plans and construction documents that can effectively be constructed, the following types of sheets will not be included in the plan set:
• Roadway surface cross sections, for areas where little or no surface improvements are proposed, and primarily just include underground infrastructure • Isolated bike/multi-use trail cross sections (for efficiency, anticipated to develop combined cross sections for Greenbelt grading and bike trail surface improvements) Key design features for the 60 percent design plans are expected to include: project elements for stormwater collection, conveyance and treatment, including detention/basins and channels; bike and multi-use trail facilities; pedestrian lighting/electrical improvements; recreational site amenities within the greenbelt; and landscaping/revegetation improvements. The plans will contain sufficient underground utility information (from utility grid maps and potholing efforts) to ensure major utility conflicts can be avoided or mitigated.
Design Workshop (DWI) will provide landscape, irrigation, and site amenity plans in support of the 60 percent design. Cardno and DWI have worked together on numerous recreation and EIP projects; Cardno is confident in our ability to weave civil and landscape design together to create a project that meets dispersed goals of recreation, hydrology, and permitting requirements. The recreation opportunities within the greenbelt will provide enhanced trail connectivity, trail loops, and clear C-007-2020
295
wayfinding to promote bicycling and walking connections to commercial and residential areas. Seating overlooks and interpretive amenities are anticipated; they will create a learning landscape that serves users of all ages. Additional recreation opportunities exist within the Greenbelt/Central Area. Providing recreational improvements will expand public use of the community gathering area located at the Crossing retail center. Improvements are anticipated to provide children’s play amenities that are naturalized and respond to the natural environment. The recreational improvements will be selected to promote independent exploration and a connection to the outdoors. DWI will review and provide input on grading plans to coordinate the grading and storm water strategies with the overall aesthetic and landscape approach.
Western Botanical Services (WBS) will provide revegetation design for stormwater quality basins, source controls, and restoration of areas disturbed by construction or in need of erosion control stabilization.
PK Electrical will provide electrical engineering and site lighting design. The pedestrian lighting in the 60% plans will include locations of proposed pedestrian lighting (based on light type and illumination requirements), along with general details of the pedestrian lighting style.
Prior to TAC review, the Cardno team will provide the 60 percent design plans to the City for review and comment. The Cardno team will meet with the City to review the plans and conduct a review meeting at the project site. This meeting will enable the Cardno team and City to walk the site and review the proposed improvements against the existing conditions. This will allow both parties to identify any potential project issues/complications so it can be addressed at the 90 percent design step.
At this stage of the design process, the Cardno team does not propose to develop project technical specifications or special provisions. These will be developed at the 90 percent design stage when the project design is refined, and all material aspects of the project are nearly complete. This will reduce drafting efforts for general assumptions on the specifications/special provisions and reduce City review time, allowing for a more efficient project delivery process at a reduced cost.
Utility Mapping, Coordination and Potholing
Cardno will coordinate with utility companies to obtain any updated and available as-built and grid mapping utility data to supplement previous efforts from the preliminary design. Potholing plans will be developed for potential conflict locations based on the updated 60 percent design progress in order to verify utility locations, identify conflicts, and inform the design efforts. Pothole locations will be recorded and tied-in by field survey for accuracy; either at the time of potholing or marked in the field with paint or wooden stakes, depending on location and efficiency. Surveyed utilities will then be located in the plans and noted according to field notes for depth, material, and type.
A potholing plan and general potholing schedule (high priority, design priority and construction priority) will be developed and provided to the respective utility companies for review, coordination and discussion. The Cardno team will coordinate with the utilities (one utility coordination and review meeting, which will be conducted at a “DIGGS” meeting the City typically attends) to review the proposed potholing to be performed. A total of eight (8) utility potholes has been assumed and included in the scope (for electric, telephone, cable and/or natural gas). In addition to the eight utility potholes, it is assumed that any sewer and water utility pothole efforts can be coordinated and performed by South C-007-2020
296
Tahoe Public Utility District (STPUD) crews, in a collaborative effort with City as cost savings measure for the Project.
Cost Estimate
To augment the plans, Cardno will produce a construction cost estimate to detail the anticipated project costs. The estimate will expand on the preliminary cost estimate for the project with refinements and updates based on the 60% design. Cardno will coordinate with the City and establish unit prices to reflect recent construction costs for similar work in the region. Recent bid results from other City projects will provide useful data points.
Task 4 Deliverables:
> 60% design plans (1 City draft and 1 TAC draft)
> 60% estimate of probable costs
> Potholing Plan
> Potholing of Utilities (8 potholes)
Task 4 Assumptions:
> No work will commence until all comments have been received on the previous 30% design > City and TAC draft reviews and comments is scoped for 1 round/iteration > The City will provide all meeting venues
> Sewer and water utility potholes performed by STPUD
Task 5 90% Design Documents
The Cardno team will prepare a 90 percent design package for the project. The 90 percent design will be developed based on comments received from the City and TAC at 60 percent design and include the same plan sheet types as documented in the 60% design (Task 4). The updated plans are to represent a standard 90 percent detailed design and clearly define the project for permitting purposes.
In addition to the plans, draft technical specifications for the project will also be developed for major materials/items associated with the project. At this design step, technical specifications will focus on major materials, facilities and construction methods; however, no technical specifications will be developed for minor/standard work items associated with the project at the 90 percent juncture.
Specifications for minor/standard/general construction elements and temporary controls (e.g. water pollution control, construction survey, schedules, traffic control, etc.) will be delayed until the 100 percent design step. Preparing the specifications when all aspects of the project are complete will reduce drafting efforts/time/costs for general assumptions on the specifications/special provisions and reduce City review time. This approach will be more efficient with the project delivery process and reduce cost. The project technical specifications will be developed in a format suitable for incorporation into a special provisions document (City template) referencing the Caltrans Standard Specifications.
Prior to TAC review, the Cardno team will provide the 90 percent design plans to the City for review and comment. The Cardno team will meet with the City to review the plans and conduct a final review meeting at the project site. This meeting will enable the Cardno team and City one last opportunity to ground-truth the design plans, consider any value engineering opportunities, and walk the site to confirm the proposed improvements are appropriate to meet the project goals.
C-007-2020
297
A draft SWPPP document developed under the permitting task and commencing at the 90 percent design, will be submitted to the permitting agencies at this stage along with project permit applications.
Task 5 Deliverables:
> 90 percent design plans (1 City draft and 1 TAC draft) > 90 percent technical specifications/special provisions for major construction elements (1 draft) > 90 percent cost estimate
Task 5 Assumptions:
> No work will commence until all comments have been received on the previous 60% design > City and TAC draft reviews and comments are scoped for 1 round/iteration > Minor/general/standard construction elements will not have technical specifications developed at the 90%; they will be developed at the 100% design step > The special provisions (technical specifications) will be developed following City boilerplate templates > The city is responsible for all contractual/front end special provision/technical specification sections Task 6 100% Design Documents
The Cardno team will prepare a 100% design package for the project. Cardno will finalize the 100% design based on comments received from the City and TAC on the 90% design along with permit comments and conditions received from regulatory agencies reviewing the permit applications. The 100% design will be a construction-ready set of documents, including complete plans, technical specifications/special provisions, bid list, and cost estimate.
Task 6 Deliverables:
> 100 percent design plans (1 City draft and 1 Final)
> 100 percent technical specifications/special provisions (1 draft) > 100 percent cost estimate
Task 6 Assumptions:
> No work will commence until all comments have been received on the previous 90% design, and all permit conditions have been received
> City draft review and comment is scoped for 1 round/iteration > No Caltrans Documentation, LAPM forms, NEPA, etc. has been scoped/budgeted, as there is no current federal funding for the project
> The city is responsible for all contractual/front end special provision/technical specification sections Task 7 Hydrologic and Hydraulic Analysis
Previous efforts associated with the project planning and preliminary design included development of an XPSWMM model of the project area—both the existing and proposed conditions. Cardno will use this model moving forward in the final design of the Project to assess both the hydrologic and hydraulic aspects of the proposed improvements. Existing storm drainage features in the model will be updated, refined and verified during the field surveying efforts associated with Task 2 to assure relevant existing C-007-2020
298
storm drainage infrastructure in the project area is surveyed and accurately incorporated into the modelling efforts.
Cardno will update the existing XPSWMM model at each subsequent phase of design (60%, 90% and 100% design steps) to reflect the design depicted on the project plans. Cardno will then run the model and analyze specific storm events as determined in coordination with the City, at minimum:
• The 25-year, 1-hour (to reflect the TRPA design storm) • The 10-year, 24-hour (as required by El Dorado County Drainage Manual) • One other storm event (potentially a 5-year, or 100-year peak flow if required by permitting agencies) as determined by the City at project initiation The XPSWMM model output will provide information on both the hydrologic and hydraulic conditions of each model event based on design parameters input (reflective of the project plans at each design step).
The Cardno team sees the modeling efforts as an iterative process during the design. When the stormwater infrastructure is designed in draft form (plan and profiles are completed), the data will be input/updated in the XPSWMM model. The model will then be run at the various design storms and reviewed. The review will include both surface hydrology/runoff and pipe network conditions. The XPSWMM model output and visual interaction aspects provide for real time information (i.e., if a pipe is surcharging and cannot handle the flows of a design storm, the pipe overflows and provides a visualization of this condition). The designers can then make adjustments in the model (increased pipe sizes, modifying slopes, etc.) to determine the most effective way to resolve the issue. Once resolved, the update will be incorporated into the design plans. This process will provide the City with design plans that adequately address the hydrologic and hydraulic aspects of the project area.
Once the final design has been completed (100% design), accepted by the Project TAC, and the XPSWMM model shows the hydrology and hydraulics operate acceptably in the proposed condition, the design information will be incorporated into a pollutant load reduction model (PLRM) for determination/estimation of annual fine sediment, phosphorous, and nitrogen removal rates.
Task 7 Deliverables:
> XPSWMM model – 60/90/100 design step updates
> Final Hydro/Hydraulic Memo – summary of model parameters and outputs, based on final design > PLRM model – based on final project design, for incorporation into city model templates for regulatory pollutant load reduction credits
Task 7 Assumptions:
> LiDAR data and existing storm drainage system survey data will be used in the development of the sub-watershed boundaries
> The City will provide baseline and any planning level PLRM model data available for the project area > The PLRM model will not be used or considered a design model and only developed after the final design has been completed and accepted by the City.

Agenda Item:
Award Bid Alternate C to Herback General Engineering's Construction Contract and Accept Funds from Tahoe Fund for the Tahoe Valley Stormwater and Greenbelt Improvement Project, Phase 2 Executive Summary: The Tahoe Valley Stormwater and Greenbelt Improvement Project, split into two phases, is a vital community and environmental improvement project. Phase 1 of the project is complete as of September 2025. Phase 2 construction began in 2025 and will be completed by the end of the 2026 construction season. On December 10, 2024, City Council awarded Phase 2 of the Tahoe Valley Stormwater and Greenbelt Improvement Project to Herback General Engineering (Herback) for $6,754,601.95 and approved a 10% construction continency. Five bid alternates were included in the bid to allow for award flexibility. Three of the bid alternates were awarded with the original contract. One of the unfunded bid alternates (lighting system) is essential to provide safety for trail users. After coordination with Herback, staff determined that the lighting system could be completed in the 2026 construction season if funding was obtained and a change order was executed by the end of April.
Requested Action / Suggested Motions: 1) Pass a Motion awarding Bid Alternate C to Herback General Engineering's Construction Contract for Phase 2 of the Tahoe Valley Stormwater and Greenbelt Improvement Project, contingent on the SWRCB Prop 1 Grant extension; and 2) Pass a Resolution authorizing and directing the Director of Public Works or designee to accept the Tahoe Fund grant terms, and authorizing and directing the Director of Finance to appropriate the funds received from Tahoe Fund to the Tahoe Valley Stormwater and Greenbelt Improvement Project.

Report to City Council
Meeting Date: April 21, 2026
Title: Award Bid Alternate C to the Construction Contract, and Accept Funds from Tahoe Fund for the Tahoe Valley Stormwater and Greenbelt Improvement Project, Phase 2 Location: Tahoe Valley drainage watershed, inclusive to the “Greenbelt” area located behind The Crossing (Refer to Attachment 02 for the Project Location Map.)
Responsible Staff Member: Brianna Greenlaw, Senior Civil Engineer Background: The Tahoe Valley Stormwater and Greenbelt Improvement Project is a vital community and environmental improvement project. Based on feedback from the public received during the Area Plan process, subsequent design meetings and public survey for the Greenbelt area, the project was developed to provide the benefits requested by the community and stakeholders, including drainage, water quality, public space, new naturalized play structures, and improved active transportation paths.
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 consisted 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.
Phase 1 of the project is complete as of September 2025. Phase 2 construction began in 2025 and will be completed by the end of the 2026 construction season.
Issue and Discussion: On December 10, 2024, City Council awarded Phase 2 of the Tahoe Valley Stormwater and Greenbelt Improvement Project to Herback General Engineering (Herback) for $6,754,601.95 and approved a 10% construction continency ($675,460.20) as part of Resolution 2024-140.
The low bidder was determined based on an evaluation of the Total Base Bid, which includes the Base Bid and the Compensable Delay. There were two bidders and Herback’s Total Base Bid plus all bid alternates were less than the Base Bid of the other bidder. A summary of the alternates included in the bid and what they consisted of is included in Table 1. Bid Alternates A, D, and E (highlighted in green in Table 1) were awarded with Herback’s contract (C-314-2024) but Bid Alternates B and C (highlighted in red in Table 1) were not due to funding limitations.

Council Agenda Report April 21, 2026 Page 2 of 2
Staff did not believe that Bid Alternate B was critical to the project’s success but indicated that funding for Bid Alternate C (furnishing and installing poles and luminaire system) was essential to provide safety for trail users.
Staff strategically created Bid Alternate C to only include the above ground lighting features (poles and luminaires), with the underground infrastructure to be completed as part of the awarded contract so disturbance to the newly installed multi-use paths would not occur.
A separate Capital Improvements Project (CIP) was made for the Tahoe Valley Phase 2 Lighting in order to request funding. Following approval at the January 27, 2026 City Council meeting, staff applied for funding from Tahoe Fund for interpretive signage and unfunded lighting improvements (Bid Alternate C). Staff requested funds for the cost of the playground sign ($14,800), Greenbelt interpretive signage ($4,220), and Bid Alternate C to install light poles and luminaires ($408,000). The playground sign and Greenbelt interpretive signage were previously included as part of the bid award to Herback. Staff was informed that Tahoe Fund would like to fund $19,020 which will pay for the playground and interpretive signage.
Staff coordinated with Herback to determine if they could implement the Bid Alternate C – light poles and luminaires if the City were to award it at this time. Due to material procurement lead times, Herback indicated that a change order would need to be executed no later than the end of April in order to successfully construct the lighting improvements in the 2026 construction season.
Execution of the change order to award Bid Alternate C to Herback is contingent on the State Water Resources Control Board (SWRCB) grant extension. On September 6, 2022, City Council accepted and appropriated SWRCB Proposition 1 Implementation Grant Funding for the Tahoe Valley Stormwater and Greenbelt Improvement Project Phases 1 and 2 (Resolution 2022-110). Amendment 1 to the grant extended the work completion date from the original agreement date of February 29, 2024 to February 28, 2026. While this grant provided a large portion of the project funding ($6,922,904), due to delays in obtaining remaining funding to complete both phases, no ground disturbing work being allowed in the Tahoe Basin between October 15th and May 1st), and unforeseen construction delays, it was not feasible to complete Phase 2 construction by February 28, 2026. City staff coordinated with SWRCB staff to extend the grant to September 30, 2026 to allow for completion of Phase 2 construction in the 2026 construction season. SWRCB staff have indicated that this extension is in process and is anticipated to be complete by the end of April. Once the grant extension is complete, staff will extend the Herback construction contract and will proceed with the change order to award Bid Alternate C.
Financial Implications: To ensure successful implementation could occur, City Council approved up to $450,000 for lighting improvements for the Phase 2 Project during the mid-year budget augmentation on March 24, 2026. Funds accepted from Tahoe Fund will allow for already allocated general funds to be utilized for other projects after Phase 2 implementation is complete.
Environmental Considerations: The Planning Commission adopted the CEQA, Mitigated Negative Declaration on May 9, 2019, SCH# 20190292152. Addendum No. 1 adding the basin and associated improvements at the corner of 4th Street and Barton Avenue was adopted by the Planning Commission on February 20, 2025.
Policy Implications: Finishing the lighting system along the proposed trails in the Greenbelt advances the City Council Strategic Priority, Recreation and Equitable Access for All, by facilitating safety along the trail. The new trails prioritize the connection of bicycle and walking trails, from neighborhoods near the Greenbelt to the South Y commercial area and beyond.
The overall project improvements also assist with advancing the City Council Strategic Priority, Protect the Natural Environment, by 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).

BACKGROUND:
A. The Project (EIP# 01.01.01.0033) is included on the priority list for watershed and water quality improvement projects within the Lake Tahoe basin.
B. On December 10, 2024, City Council awarded Phase 2 of the Tahoe Valley Stormwater and Greenbelt Improvement Project to Herback General Engineering (Herback) for $6,754,601.95 and approved a 10% construction continency ($675,460.20). Three of the five bid alternates were awarded with the contract.
C. One of the bid alternates (Bid Alternate C) which included the lighting system was not awarded with the contract due to funding limitations.

The request included the cost of the playground sign ($14,800), Greenbelt interpretive signage ($4,220), and Bid Alternate C to install light poles and luminaires ($408,000). The playground sign and interpretive signage were previously allocated funds as part of the bid award to Herback.
E. Tahoe Fund would like to fund $19,020 for the playground sign and interpretive signage. Accepting this award will enable the City to utilize the already allocated general funds for this work on other projects.
BASED ON THE FACTS SET FORTH IN THE BACKGROUND, BE IT RESOLVED, that the City Council of the City of South Lake Tahoe:
1. Authorize the Director of Public Works or designee to accept that grant from the Tahoe Fund and execute any necessary agreements.

Report to City Council
Meeting Date: April 21, 2026
Title: Affordable Housing and Sustainable Communities (AHSC) Program Application for the Sugar Pine Village Phase 2B Affordable Housing Project
Location: 1888 Lake Tahoe Boulevard and 1029 Tata Lane
Responsible Staff Members: 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 affordable housing 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 $150,000,000 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.
The Affordable Housing component of the AHSC funding that has been awarded is currently under construction, and the solar, transportation, and pedestrian/bicycle infrastructure component of the award is in the design and moving into the implementation phase this summer. The City and 436

Related applied for AHSC funds in 2025 and were not awarded. At its February 10, 2026 meeting, the City Council authorized an application for $620,000 in Prohousing Incentive Program (PIP) funds for Phase 2B.

Issue and Discussion: The purpose of the AHSC Program is to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions through projects that implement land-use, housing, transportation and agricultural land preservation. The AHSC Program seeks to accomplish a broad environmental objective, rather than just construct housing, making it a unique program in the field of affordable housing funding sources. Specifically, it mandates that a certain amount of awarded funds be used for non-housing transportation related infrastructure and other infrastructure that provide reductions in GHG emissions. This allows the community to benefit not just from affordable housing but also from the associated infrastructure improvements.
AHSC Program funds are assessed through a highly competitive scoring process that is based in part on the specifics of the proposed non-housing improvements. As such, the project developer and City staff have been working closely together to outline specific improvements that can both provide maximum benefit to the community and the project while also maximizing the competitiveness of the application.
437
Council Agenda Report - April 21, 2026 Page 3 of 5
While separate from the City’s obligations under the AHSC grant, the application may also include a contribution towards interregional and/or local transit. As previously noted, the AHSC Program is designed to achieve the objective of reducing GHG emissions. As such, the specific projects outlined in the grant application (currently being prepared), seek to align with the grant objectives and thereby increase the likelihood of being awarded funds.
Non-housing improvements proposed for the application include pedestrian and bike lane improvements within a two-mile radius of Sugar Pine Village. At the May 7, 2024 City Council meeting, staff presented the Bicycle Advisory Committee (BAC) prioritized list of Active Transportation Projects for the City’s Capital Improvement Program (CIP). Councilmember Robbins, seconded by Councilmember Creegan confirmed moving the projects from 1A into the CIP. At this meeting, council members discussed that the prioritization of the projects can be moved if a particular project has a grant opportunity available.
The prioritized list was reviewed by city staff and Related CA to look for a project that aligned with the grant criteria. Per the staff report for this item and discussion by the City Council on May 7, 2024, the prioritization list was not meant to be linear and city council would be updated when grant funds are available for projects that are lower on the prioritization list. Given the constraints and opportunities of scoring for the AHSC program, staff have selected Julie Lane and D Street for bike and pedestrian improvements to meet the length requirement for scoring, the budget, and serving as a link between bike and pedestrian facilities. Staff continues working with transportation agencies on potential projects for this application, as well.
Staff recommends that the City Council pass a motion adopting a resolution authorizing staff to submit a joint application with Related Companies of California LLC under the AHSC Program for an amount not to exceed $30,000,000 of which an amount not to exceed $20,000,000 will be provided as a loan for the affordable housing construction and an amount not to exceed $10,000,000 will be provided as a reimbursable grant for Housing Related Infrastructure (HRI), Sustainable Transportation Infrastructure (STI), Transit Related Infrastructure (TRA) or Program activities as defined in the AHSC Program Guidelines. While these are not to exceed amounts, the actual application request will likely be approximately $15,000,000+/- for the affordable housing and $7,000,000+/- for the non-housing infrastructure improvements. AHSC Program applications are due by May 4th with award announcements anticipated in December 2026.
Financial Implications: The AHSC Program application will contain approximately $7,000,000 of “non-housing” related improvements of which the City, as the joint applicant, will carry primary responsibility for completion.
City responsibilities will include providing the initial capital for approximately $6,000,000 of identified improvements consistent with the AHSC Program Guidelines. Expenditures consistent with and in compliance with the award agreement are reimbursable to the City up to the maximum agreed amount. The City is responsible for providing the funds up front for the projects and are reimbursed by the state.
Environmental Considerations: For projects that satisfy criteria specified by SB 35, the guidelines issued by HCD specify that the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) does not apply to actions taken by a local government to provide financial assistance to a development that 438
Council Agenda Report - April 21, 2026 Page 4 of 5
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.
Construction of sidewalks and bike trails is considered categorically exempt from CEQA under CEQA Guidelines Section 15301, Existing Facilities, which exempts minor alteration of existing public facilities involving negligible or no expansion of existing use. An example provided by the CEQA Guidelines includes alterations of existing streets for the addition of bicycle facilities, transit improvements, pedestrian crossings, and other similar alterations that do not create additional automobile lanes.
Policy Implications: The recommended action is consistent with the City Strategic Plan which identifies supporting the Sugar Pine Village Project as Action Item 1.1.
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 2-2 The City shall enable opportunities for deed-restricted affordable ownership housing to ensure long-term affordability.
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.
Program 2-1 Pursue State and Federal Funds
To support the creation of quality, affordable housing options for extremely low-, very low-, and low-income households, the City shall seek and when appropriate and feasible pursue grant opportunities for state and federal funds.
City of South Lake Tahoe Climate Action Plan
Action Item WB-1 Improve bicycle and pedestrian network and support use of e-bikes Use the community planning process and individual project applications to continue to improve and expand bicycle and pedestrian infrastructure and options, especially those in winter.
Action Item LUP-1 Encourage complete neighborhoods
Promote complete and distinct neighborhoods through zoning and permitting that promote walking, biking, and taking transit to services to reduce vehicle use. Use incentives for zoning and transit-oriented development to site new development near jobs and transit, enabling a greater percentage of the workforce to live near work and transit. City neighborhoods should foster community pride, enhance public safety, and be family friendly. 439
Council Agenda Report - April 21, 2026 Page 5 of 5
Action Item LUP-2 Ensure a healthy jobs-to-housing balance by prioritizing dense mixed-use development
Implement GHG reductions through area plans by concentrating commercial and medium- to highdensity residential development near designated City centers that can be served efficiently by public transit and alternative transportation modes, such as major bike paths. Ensure that allocated land for parking areas is minimized and that pedestrian, bus, and bike pathways are available.
Action Item LUP-3 Prioritize workforce and affordable housing Use regulatory and voluntary tools to increase the inventory of workforce housing along existing and planned higher capacity bus routes, more frequent transit services, and near services and jobs. Identify additional affordable workforce housing opportunities as part of the General Plan update land use plan and future development projects. Work with developers to provide incentives for and encourage affordable housing projects.

Report to City Council
Meeting Date: April 21, 2026
Title: Affordable Housing and Sustainable Communities (AHSC) Program Application for the 3900/3908 Lake Tahoe Blvd. Affordable Housing Project
Location: 3900 and 3908 Lake Tahoe Boulevard
Responsible Staff Members: Jessica Wackenhut Lomeli, Housing Manager Background: On June 3, 2022 the South Lake Tahoe Redevelopment Successor Agency released a Low- and Moderate-Income Housing Notice of Availability (NOA) to Sell/Lease Surplus Property located at 3900 and 3908 Lake Tahoe Blvd. (APNs: 029-170-01 and 029-170-02). Per the Surplus Land Act, the NOA provided 60 days for interested parties to notify the South Lake Tahoe Redevelopment Successor Agency regarding interest in acquiring the property.
Three offers were submitted from Novin Development and SMR Development, Saint Joseph Community Land Trust, and the City of South Lake Tahoe. Upon review of the proposals by staff, the proposal submitted by Novin Development and SMR Development was determined to be the most consistent with the criteria outlined in the Notice of Availability. At its August 23, 2022 meeting, the City Council approved a Letter of Intent outlining the timelines and commitments associated with negotiating a purchase agreement, conducting due diligence, and escrow.
As directed by Council, staff began negotiating terms of a purchase and sale agreement for Successor Agency and City Council approval that includes additional project details, financing details, and development timelines. The City was a party to this agreement in addition to the Successor Agency because under the Dissolution Acts of 2011, the Successor Agency is not able to enter into any new obligations besides disposing of property.
On November 7, 2023, the Successor Agency, City, and Novin Development Corp. (the predecessor of NDC Lake Tahoe, LP) entered into an Agreement for Purchase and Sale and Initial Escrow Instructions for the Property, in which the Successor Agency would sell the Property to the City and then the City would sell the Property to Novin, which was filed in the City of South Lake Tahoe records as Contract No. C-240-2023 (Attachment 5). On May 7, 2024, the City Council authorized the Mayor to enter into the Predevelopment Loan and Development Agreement (Agreement) with NDC Lake Tahoe, LP for $564,073 in awarded Permanent Local Housing Allocation (PLHA) Formula funds to be used for predevelopment costs associated with the affordable housing project at 3900/3908 Lake Tahoe Boulevard (Attachment 6).
On July 8, 2024, the City received the Prohousing Incentive Program (PIP) grant award letter for $620,000 with $500,000 allocated for the affordable housing project at 3900/3908 Lake Tahoe 445
Council Agenda Report - April 21, 2026 Page 2 of 5
Boulevard and $120,000 allocated for the rehabilitation of Tahoe Coalition for the Homeless’ (TCH) three Homekey properties.
On August 27, 2024, City Council passed Resolution 2024-090 directing staff to set aside $1,000,000 from the General Fund’s Undesignated Excess Reserves to leverage state and federal funding opportunities to fully fund the affordable housing project at 3900/3908 Lake Tahoe Boulevard.
This project is proposed to consist of a minimum of 72 residential units which would be deedrestricted to low and/or moderate-income households for a period of no less than 55 years, as well as community amenities on the ground floor on about 1.16 acres of land. The project will also contain one manager’s unit and two live-work ancillary commercial units. On April 17, 2025, the Planning Commission approved the TRPA Multi-Family Dwelling Project Application for this project.
On May 20, 2025, City Council passed Motion 2025-047 authorizing the Mayor to execute Amendment Number 1 to the Predevelopment Loan and Development Agreement with NDC Lake Tahoe, LP (C-092-2025) to loan an additional $500,000 in PIP grant funds for a total of $1,064,073 in PLHA and PIP funds for 3900 and 3908 Lake Tahoe Blvd predevelopment and development costs. An Amended and Restated Predevelopment Loan Promissory Note for 3900 and 3908 Lake Tahoe Boulevard increasing the loan amount to $1,064,073, extending the Agreement deadline to June 30, 2026, and adding language for the incorporation of the local preference policy per Resolution 2025-006, subject to this development was executed. Council also passed Resolution 2025-043 authorizing the Finance Director to appropriate the remaining $500,000 in PIP funds into the revenue and expense budget line items for the predevelopment loan.
The Affordable Housing and Sustainable Communities (AHSC) grant is designed and awarded by California Strategic Growth Council and is implemented through California Housing and Community Development Department. This grant integrates some of the state’s top priorities, centered around affordable housing projects.
Issue and Discussion: The purpose of the AHSC Program is to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions through projects that implement land-use, housing, transportation and agricultural land preservation. The AHSC Program seeks to accomplish a broad environmental objective, rather than just construct housing, making it a unique program in the field of affordable housing funding sources. Specifically, it mandates that a certain amount of awarded funds be used for non-housing transportation related infrastructure and other infrastructure that provide reductions in GHG emissions. This allows the community to benefit not just from affordable housing but also from the associated infrastructure improvements.
AHSC Program funds are assessed through a highly competitive scoring process that is based in part on the specifics of the proposed non-housing improvements. As such, the project developer and City staff have been working closely together to outline specific improvements that can both provide maximum benefit to the community and the project while also maximizing the competitiveness of the application.
446
Council Agenda Report - April 21, 2026 Page 3 of 5
While separate from the City’s obligations under the AHSC grant, the application may also include a contribution towards interregional and/or local transit. As previously noted, the AHSC Program is designed to achieve the objective of reducing GHG emissions. As such, the specific projects outlined in the grant application (currently being prepared), seek to align with the grant objectives and thereby increase the likelihood of being awarded funds.
Non-housing improvements proposed for the application include pedestrian and bike lane improvements within a two-mile radius of 3900/3908 Lake Tahoe Boulevard affordable housing project. At the May 7, 2024 City Council meeting, staff presented the Bicycle Advisory Committee (BAC) prioritized list of Active Transportation Projects for the City’s Capital Improvement Program (CIP). Councilmember Robbins, seconded by Councilmember Creegan confirmed moving the projects from 1A into the CIP. At this meeting, council members discussed that the prioritization of the projects can be moved if a particular project has a grant opportunity available.
The prioritized list was reviewed by city staff and NDC Lake Tahoe, LP to look for a project that aligned with the grant criteria. Per the staff report for this item and discussion by the City Council on May 7, 2024, the prioritization list was not meant to be linear and city council would be updated when grant funds are available for projects that are lower on the prioritization list. Given the constraints and opportunities of scoring for the AHSC program, staff have selected Stateline Avenue for bike and pedestrian improvements to meet the length requirement for scoring, the budget, and serving as a link between bike and pedestrian facilities. Staff continues working with transportation agencies on potential improvements.
Staff recommends that the City Council pass a motion to adopt a resolution authorizing staff to submit a joint application with NDC Lake Tahoe, LP under the AHSC Program for an amount not to exceed $30,000,000 of which an amount not to exceed $20,000,000 will be provided as a loan for the affordable housing construction and an amount not to exceed $10,000,000 will be provided as a reimbursable grant for Housing Related Infrastructure (HRI), Sustainable Transportation Infrastructure (STI), Transit Related Infrastructure (TRA) or Program activities as defined in the AHSC Program Guidelines. While these are not to exceed amounts, the actual application request will likely be approximately $15,000,000+/- for the affordable housing and $7,000,000+/- for the non-housing infrastructure improvements. AHSC Program applications are due by May 4th with award announcements anticipated in December 2026.
Financial Implications: The AHSC Program application will contain approximately $7,000,000 of “non-housing” related improvements of which the City, as the joint applicant, will carry primary responsibility for completion.
City responsibilities will include providing the initial capital for approximately $7,000,000 of identified improvements consistent with the AHSC Program Guidelines. Expenditures consistent with and in compliance with the award agreement are reimbursable to the City up to the maximum agreed amount. The City is responsible for providing the funds up front for the projects and are reimbursed by the state.
Environmental Considerations: For projects that satisfy criteria specified by SB 35, the guidelines issued by HCD specify that the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) does not apply to actions taken by a local government to provide financial assistance to a development that 447
Council Agenda Report - April 21, 2026 Page 4 of 5
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.
Construction of sidewalks and bike trails is considered categorically exempt from CEQA under CEQA Guidelines Section 15301, Existing Facilities, which exempts minor alteration of existing public facilities involving negligible or no expansion of existing use. An example provided by the CEQA Guidelines includes alterations of existing streets for the addition of bicycle facilities, transit improvements, pedestrian crossings, and other similar alterations that do not create additional automobile lanes.
Policy Implications: The recommended action is consistent with the City Strategic Plan which identifies supporting the 3900 Lake Tahoe Boulevard project as Action Item 1.2.
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 2-2 The City shall enable opportunities for deed-restricted affordable ownership housing to ensure long-term affordability.
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.
Program 2-1 Pursue State and Federal Funds
To support the creation of quality, affordable housing options for extremely low-, very low-, and low-income households, the City shall seek and when appropriate and feasible pursue grant opportunities for state and federal funds.
City of South Lake Tahoe Climate Action Plan
Action Item WB-1 Improve bicycle and pedestrian network and support use of e-bikes Use the community planning process and individual project applications to continue to improve and expand bicycle and pedestrian infrastructure and options, especially those in winter.
Action Item LUP-1 Encourage complete neighborhoods
Promote complete and distinct neighborhoods through zoning and permitting that promote walking, biking, and taking transit to services to reduce vehicle use. Use incentives for zoning and transit-oriented development to site new development near jobs and transit, enabling a greater percentage of the workforce to live near work and transit. City neighborhoods should foster community pride, enhance public safety, and be family friendly. 448
Council Agenda Report - April 21, 2026 Page 5 of 5
Action Item LUP-2 Ensure a healthy jobs-to-housing balance by prioritizing dense mixed-use development
Implement GHG reductions through area plans by concentrating commercial and medium- to highdensity residential development near designated City centers that can be served efficiently by public transit and alternative transportation modes, such as major bike paths. Ensure that allocated land for parking areas is minimized and that pedestrian, bus, and bike pathways are available.
Action Item LUP-3 Prioritize workforce and affordable housing Use regulatory and voluntary tools to increase the inventory of workforce housing along existing and planned higher capacity bus routes, more frequent transit services, and near services and jobs. Identify additional affordable workforce housing opportunities as part of the General Plan update land use plan and future development projects. Work with developers to provide incentives for and encourage affordable housing projects.

Report to City Council
Meeting Date: April 21, 2026
Title: Amendment No. 1 to Professional Services Agreement between CDM Smith, Inc. and the City of South Lake Tahoe for the Dennis T. Machida Memorial Greenway Phase IC Location Pioneer Trail (Herbert Avenue to Ski Run Boulevard) Responsible Staff Member: Emily Dougherty, Associate Transportation Planner Background: The Dennis T. Machida Memorial Greenway Trail will connect the Tahoe Sierra Neighborhood to Van Sickle Bi-State Park via a series of paved bicycle and pedestrian trails, completing the core of the non-motorized transportation network in the South Shore. Previously known as the South Tahoe Greenway Shared Use Trail, the original project approval and preliminary designs occurred in 2011 and were amended in 2016 with the California Tahoe Conservancy (CTC) acting in the lead role for delivery of the project.
Phase 1A of the Greenway extends between Herbert Avenue and Glenwood Way in the heart of the Bijou neighborhood in South Lake Tahoe. This project phase was built in 2016 and is open to public use. Phases 1B and 2 of the Greenway extended the trail south across Bijou Creek Meadow, crossing Al Tahoe Boulevard to Lake Tahoe Community College (LTCC). From LTCC, the trail crosses Trout Creek and Martin Avenue to provide a safe route to Sierra Boulevard in the Tahoe Sierra neighborhood. This project connects to the City of South Lake Tahoe’s Sierra Boulevard Complete Streets project and extends the bike trail network to destinations on the western side of the City. Phases 1B and 2 were completed in 2021 and are open to public use.
Phase 1C of the Greenway will extend from Herbert Ave. to Ski Run Blvd. To complete Phase 1C of the Greenway, the City has been awarded $800,000 in grant funds from the California Tahoe Conservancy (CTC) to supplement existing City funds to complete pre-acquisition work, right-of-way surveying, feasibility studies, alternatives analysis, and updates to the environmental document to move forward with the design of the project.
Issue and Discussion: On October 23, 2024, the City entered into an Agreement with CDM Smith to provide engineering design services for Dennis T. Machida Memorial Greenway Phase 1C for an eighteenmonth term ending on April 23, 2026. The project has been delayed due to right-of-way acquisition challenges. The appraisal process has begun and the project is making progress on the scope of work described in the Professional Services Agreement C-267-2024 included in Task Group A (Attachment 3).
There is a desire to extend the term of this agreement by an additional eighteen months, until October 23, 2027, to allow the Consultant additional time to complete the Scope of Services described in Task Group A.
Financial Implications: The entire scope of services described the Professional Services Agreement C267-2024 is fully funded using the $800,000 in CTC planning grant funds previously accepted by Resolution 2024-047 to advance the project with the goal of becoming “shovel ready.” No additional funds are being requested at this time. The Professional Services Agreement for Task Group A is for a not to exceed amount of $381,620. Amendment No 1. does not increase the contract amount and only extends the term of the agreement.

Environmental Considerations: The CEQA Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration was approved with the CTC as the lead agency on September 16, 2011 (SCH# 2006112070).
Policy Implications: Authorizing this Professional Services Agreement time extension will allow for the continuation of design and environmental work for the Dennis T. Machida Memorial Greenway Phase 1C project that will advance the City Council Strategic Priorities and Goals, specifically:
Priority 7: Recreation and Equitable Access for All:
7.3 Increase connectivity and safety
7.7 Continue to improve access for people of all abilities to all public spaces. 455

Agenda Item: Purchase of HPE Alletra 5010 Storage Array and Five-Year Support Contract Executive Summary: This purchase will replace the City’s existing HPE Nimble storage array, which was originally purchased in 2018 and is now aging and no longer supported by the manufacturer.
Because the current array supports core information technology operations, continued reliance on unsupported infrastructure increases the risk of hardware failure, service disruption, and difficulty obtaining replacement parts or vendor support.
Requested Action / Suggested Motions: Pass a Motion: 1) Approving the purchase of an HPE Alletra 5010 storage array with five years of manufacturer support under the NASPO ValuePoint cooperative purchasing agreement in the amount of $139,700.45; and 2) Authorizing the Interim City Manager to execute the necessary purchase documents to complete the acquisition.

Report to City Council
Meeting Date: April 21, 2026
Title: Purchase Authorization – HPE Alletra 5010 Storage Array and Five-Year Support Agreement
Location: Citywide
Responsible Staff Member: Gabriel Raab, Senior IT Analyst Background: The proposed purchase of an HPE Alletra 5010 storage array will replace the City’s existing HPE Nimble storage array, which was originally purchased in 2018.
The current storage infrastructure is aging and is no longer supported by the manufacturer. Replacing the system is necessary to maintain reliable storage services for the City’s finance and information technology environments, reduce the risk of hardware failure, and ensure continued support for critical business systems and data storage needs.
Issue and Discussion: The City’s current HPE Nimble storage array was acquired in 2018 and has served as a core component of the City’s information technology infrastructure. This system supports storage needs for City servers, applications, and operational data.
As the system has aged, it has reached a point where manufacturer support is no longer available. Unsupported infrastructure presents increasing operational risk, including:
Greater likelihood of service disruption due to hardware failure; Inability to obtain technical support or replacement parts in a timely manner; Increased exposure to outages affecting business-critical systems; Reduced ability to maintain a secure, stable, and resilient computing environment.
To address these risks, staff evaluated replacement options and identified the HPE Alletra 5010 as the appropriate successor platform to meet the City’s current and anticipated storage requirements.
The proposed HPE Alletra 5010 will provide modernized storage infrastructure for the City’s virtual server environment and associated enterprise systems. The purchase includes five years of manufacturer support, which will help ensure continued vendor 500
Council Agenda Report April 21, 2026 Page 2 of 2
assistance, software updates, hardware coverage, and lifecycle stability over the term of ownership.
Replacing the current array at this time is prudent for several reasons:
The existing HPE Nimble array is beyond its supported lifecycle; Continued reliance on unsupported infrastructure increases the risk of unplanned downtime;
New hardware will improve reliability and maintainability of the City’s core IT systems;
A supported platform helps staff better sustain City operations and respond to issues efficiently.
This purchase is consistent with sound asset lifecycle management and supports continuity of operations for City departments that depend on reliable access to systems and data.
Staff recommends the purchase of an HPE Alletra 5010 storage array, including five years of manufacturer support, to replace the City’s existing HPE Nimble storage array, in the amount of $139,700.45, to be funded from the IT Machinery and Equipment account (10001840-46110). The purchase will be made through a NASPO ValuePoint cooperative purchasing agreement.
Financial Implications: Funding for this purchase in the amount of $ $139,700.45 per the attached quote is available in the current year’s 2025/26 budget in account 10001840-46110. This purchase will be made through a NASPO ValuePoint cooperative purchasing agreement. NASPO ValuePoint is a nationwide cooperative procurement program administered by the National Association of State Procurement Officials. It allows public agencies to purchase goods and services from competitively solicited and publicly awarded contracts, which can reduce procurement time, leverage cooperative pricing, and help ensure compliance with public purchasing requirements.
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 Efficient Government, Action Item 2.8, Evaluate appropriate systems and tools for processes and communications that are cyber safe.

Title: Tentative Subdivision Map for Zalanta II Resort at the Village Location: 4101 Lake Tahoe Boulevard, 965 Friday Avenue, 4066 and 4080 Cedar Avenue Responsible Staff Members: John Hitchcock, Planning Manager Background:
The City Development Services Department received a Tentative Subdivision Map application from Jacksonville Hospitality Group FL LLC to subdivide the previously approved Zalanta II Resort at the Village Project (“Zalanta Phase 2”) project. The applicant proposed to subdivide the project into 60 hotel-condominium units and one accessory space unit.
The Zalanta Phase 2 project was previously approved by the Planning Commission on November 10, 2016 (see Attachment 02). At that time, the Planning Commission passed a motion and made the following findings:
1. Found the Zalanta Phase 2 to be consistent with the original 2007 project approval, as analyzed in the EIR/EIS for Redevelopment Project #3 and the subsequent 2007 Second Addendum, and thus, additional environmental analysis is not required.
2. Found the Zalanta Phase 2 Project was substantially consistent with the 2007 and 2013 approved projects and conditions of the approval and approved Major Design Review Permit #16-177.
The project site is located directly behind the Zalanta Phase 1 Project, which fronts Lake Tahoe Boulevard, and is bounded by Friday Avenue on the west and Cedar Avenue on the north. See Attachment 03 for a location map.
On February 19, 2026, the Planning Commission held a regularly scheduled public hearing to consider the tentative subdivision map application. After receiving public testimony and deliberating, the Planning Commission passed Resolution 2026-006 recommending the City Council approve the tentative subdivision map for Zalanta Phase 2 (see Attachment 04).
The project has an approved active building permit on file (Permit #22120086 and #EXTEN26- 0003) for sitework that includes grading and site preparation.
Issue and Discussion:
MAP REVIEW
Pursuant to the Subdivision Map Act (SMA), the Tentative Subdivision Map (“Tentative Map”) is required for creating five or more parcels. The Tentative Subdivision process is the first step in obtaining approval from the legislative body before a Final Subdivision Map (“Final Map”) is recorded, which allows the legal sale or financing of new lots or units.
Pursuant to the SMA, the proposed Tentative Subdivision Map (see Attachment 05) was prepared by a licensed land surveyor and includes the required contents, which include property 505
City Council Agenda Report- April 21, 2026 Page 2
owner and land surveyor information, site topography, existing infrastructure, if applicable, public utility easements, vicinity map, and legal description.
The Tentative Map includes four contiguous parcels totaling 1.59 acres. The Map is located in Zone X pursuant to FEMA Firm Map #06017C0380F dated April 13, 2012, which is outside the 100-year floodplain. Upon approval of the Final Map and recording with El Dorado County, the parcels will be merged into a single parcel.
The Map does not show the proposed condominium units. Per SMA Section 66427(b), a map need not include a condominium plan or plans at the time a Tentative Map is approved by the legislative body.
After the Tentative Map is approved, a Final Map must be submitted to the City within 24 months; otherwise, the period may be extended pursuant to the SMA. The Final Map will be accompanied by a condominium plan describing the legal boundaries of each airspace unit. The Final Map will be reviewed and approved by the Public Works Department in coordination with the El Dorado County Surveyor’s Office prior to consideration by the City Council.
Common Interest Developments (CID), as proposed here, are subject to compliance with the Davis-Stirling Common Interest Development Act (California Civil Code sections 4000 et seq.).
This Act is intended to provide owners with a system of self-government and dispute resolution through a homeowner’s association. The California Department of Real Estate will review the proposed CID's legal framework to ensure compliance with the Subdivided Lands Law as part of the public report application process, before units are offered for sale to the public.
FINDINGS
The following findings are required by the Subdivision Map Act for approval of a tentative subdivision map:
1. The project is consistent with the General Plan as specified in Government Code Section 65451.
The General Plan directs the City to use the Plan Area Statements (PAS), Community Plans, and Area Plans to guide land-use policies and address land-use issues. The project site is designated by the General Plan as a Tourist Center, which permits the most intensive land uses, including major commercial/visitor centers and mixed-use residential.
The project site is also located in the Tourist Core Area Plan Tourist Center District, where tourist accommodation (condo-hotel) is encouraged and allowed by right.
Thus, the proposed Tentative Map to subdivide units into condo-hotel is consistent with the General Plan and the Tourist Core Area Plan Specific Plan adopted by the City Council.
2. The design or improvement of the proposed subdivision is consistent with applicable general and specific plans.
The Tourist Core Tourist Center District is zoned for higher-density tourist accommodation, with a maximum of 40 units per acre. The proposed project includes 506
City Council Agenda Report- April 21, 2026 Page 3
60 units on 1.59 acres, which equates to 37units per acre. The proposed design and improvements were also found to be consistent with the development and design standards of the Tourist Core Area Plan Specific Plan when the Planning Commission approved the project on November 10, 2016.
3. The site is physically suitable for the type of development.
The site is physically suitable for the proposed type of development. The project site was previously developed with tourist accommodation uses built in the 1960s and 1970s that were subsequently demolished as part of the Redevelopment Project 3. The site is also surrounded by highly intensive urban uses developed as a major commercial/visitor center with excess land coverage. The site is also close to employment centers, recreational opportunities, transit, pedestrian infrastructure, and public services.
The project site has also been verified by TRPA as suitable for development (i.e., Land Capability District Class 7), and existing utilities (e.g., sewer, water, and electricity) are located adjacent to the property.
4. The site is physically suitable for the proposed density of development.
The Tourist Core Tourist Center District is zoned for higher-density tourist accommodation at 40 units per acre. As described above, the proposed subdivision would result in 60 units, or 37 units per acre.
5. The design of the subdivision is not likely to cause substantial environmental damage or substantially and avoidably injure fish or wildlife or their habitat.
On November 10, 2016, the Planning Commission made the finding that the Zalanta Phase 2 was consistent with the original 2007 project approval, as analyzed in the EIR/EIS for Redevelopment Project #3 and the subsequent 2007 Second Addendum, and thus, additional environmental analysis is not required for the Phase 2 Project.
6. The design of the subdivision is not likely to cause serious public health problems.
Given compliance with all City, County, State, TRPA, and Federal regulations, the project is unlikely to cause public health problems. The project must install water-quality best management practices to treat runoff, mitigate air-quality impacts, install pedestrian and street improvements and lighting consistently with the City Public Improvement and Engineering Standards, install lighting, be built to meet all fire and defensible space standards, and meet the conditions of approval outlined in Major Design Review Permit #16-177.
7. The design of the subdivision will not conflict with easements, acquired by the public at large, for access through or use of, property within the proposed subdivision.
The Tentative Map submitted by the applicant indicates that public utility easements exist on the site, including a snow storage easement in favor of the City of South Lake Tahoe and an emergency access easement. The approved Zalanta Phase 2 Project was designed not to interfere with the recorded easements.

City Council Agenda Report- April 21, 2026 Page 4
Environmental Analysis:
California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA)
On November 10, 2016, the Planning Commission made the finding that the Zalanta Phase 2 was consistent with the original 2007 project approval, as analyzed in the certified EIR/EIS for Redevelopment Project #3 and the subsequent certified 2007 Second Addendum, and thus, additional environmental analysis is not required for the Phase 2 Project.
The EIR/EIS and the 2007 Second Addendum concluded that all components of Redevelopment Project 3 would not have a significant effect on the environment when mitigation measures are implemented.
Public Notice:
Notice of this public hearing was mailed to all affected properties within 300 feet of the project area on March 31, 2026, and published in the Tahoe Daily Tribune on April 10, 2026. No comments have been received as of the date of this report.
Financial Implications:
The approval of a Tentative Map does not have any negative financial implications for the City.
Once the project is constructed and the units are operating as hotel-condos, the City will receive tourist occupancy tax for nightly rentals and well as property tax. The operation of the property is also beneficial for the overall economy of the city.
Policy Implications:
The Tentative Map aligns with the City Council's strategic priorities to create an environment that attracts diverse investment in our community and supports existing businesses. The Tentative Map is also consistent with the transportation strategy of locating denser land use near transit to increase ridership opportunities.

Residents of property near such airports should therefore be prepared to accept the inconvenience, annoyance, or discomfort from normal aircraft operations. Residents should also be aware that aircraft activity may increase in the future in response to federal military needs. Any subsequent deed conveying this 519

Compatibility Plan dated August 2019.”
525
Resolution 2026-XX April 21, 2026 Page 4
ii. “The Lake Tahoe Land Use Compatibility Plan and City of South Lake Tahoe Ordinance 2020-1142 identify a Lake Tahoe Airport Influence Area. Properties within this area are routinely subject to overflights by aircraft using this military airport and, as a result, residents may experience inconvenience, annoyance, or discomfort arising from the noise of such operations. State law (Public Resources Code section 21670 et seq.) supports the importance of military airports in protecting the public interest of the people of the United States and the state of California.
Residents of property near such airports should therefore be prepared to accept the inconvenience, annoyance, or discomfort from normal aircraft operations. Residents should also be aware that aircraft activity may increase in the future in response to federal military needs. Any subsequent deed conveying this parcel or subdivision thereof shall contain a statement in substantially this form.”
j. The Final Subdivision Map shall include easements and dedications, and shall cite cross-access agreements and recorded deed restrictions to assure legal access to all parcels, including condominium parcels, to the public right-of-way, as required by the Subdivision Map Act and as directed and approved by the City.
k. Approval of a Tentative Subdivision Map does not constitute Final Subdivision Map approval.

Agenda Item: 2025-2026 Master Fee Schedule
Executive Summary: Per the discussion held on March 24, 2026, the proposed updates to the 2025- 2026 Master Fee Schedule incorporate the comprehensive user fee study conducted in 2025. The updates also include Consumer Price Index (CPI) adjustments, reflecting the City's ongoing efforts to promote full cost recovery where applicable. The Master Fee Schedule has been thoroughly reviewed by departments and Finance staff to ensure it appropriately balances the City's cost recovery objectives, current market conditions, and broader policy considerations. The City Council will consider formal adoption of the 2025–2026 Master Fee Schedule at this meeting or at a subsequent meeting if further revisions are requested.
Requested Action / Suggested Motions: Pass a Resolution adopting the Annual Master Schedule of Fees and Charges for City Services as presented; or provide direction to staff to modify the schedule and return at a subsequent meeting with a revised resolution for adoption.

Report to City Council
Meeting Date: April 21, 2026
Title: 2025-2026 Master Fee Schedule (Public Hearing)
Location: Finance Department
Responsible Staff Member: Akemi Nishimura, Accountant I, (530) 542-6061; Olga Tikhomirova, Director of Finance, (530) 542-7431
Background:
User fees in California are required to conform to the California Constitution (including Proposition 26) and statutory requirements such as Government Code Sections 66014 through 66018.5. Under Proposition 26, fees imposed for specific services, reasonable regulatory costs, licenses and permits, or for entrance to or use of City property are generally excluded from the definition of a "tax," as outlined in Article XIIIC, Section 1(e). Fees for the use of City property, such as campground fees, fall under this exception and are not restricted to cost recovery, allowing the City to charge market-based rates.
On March 10, 2026, the City Council received a presentation of the Draft Comprehensive User Fee Study prepared by Government Consulting Partners (GCP). The purpose of the study was to align user fees with the actual cost of providing services, improve transparency, ensure compliance with Proposition 26 and Government Code Section 66014, and reduce unintended General Fund subsidies where appropriate.
The study evaluated the full cost of service across departments, including direct staff time, fully burdened labor rates, overhead allocation, operating costs, and current cost recovery levels.
Before providing policy direction on potential fee adjustments, the Council requested additional information regarding the City's financial condition. As a result, updates to the Master Fee Schedule were scheduled to return following the FY 2026 Mid-Year Budget Review and Five-Year Financial Plan Update, along with the requested policy direction.
On March 24, 2026, with the additional financial context provided by the FY 2026 Mid-Year Budget Review and Five-Year Financial Plan Update, Council directed staff to set cost recovery levels as recommended by GCP, except:
1. Fingerprinting fees: recover only the Department of Justice cost.
2. Appeals: set at full-cost recovery and due at filing; if appellants prevail (the decision is reversed or materially modified in their favor), the full fee will be refunded.
3. Continued General Fund subsidy levels for Emergency Medical Services (EMS).
4. Continued General Fund subsidy levels for recreation and other community-benefit programs.
Recommendations for reduced building permit fees for smaller homes, small businesses, multifamily rental housing, and deed-restricted housing will be brought forward at a later date. 531
Council Agenda Report April 21, 2026 Page 2 of 5
Issue and Discussion:
The attached Master Fee Schedule reflects the fee adjustments directed by the City Council on March 24, 2026. Certain fees were excluded from the User Fee Study because they are set by contract or require market analysis beyond the scope of the RFP. These fees remain included in the Master Fee Schedule presented for Council review and approval. Each department reviewed its respective fee schedule as adjusted through the User Fee Study and further evaluated whether the adjusted fees could reasonably be increased by the Consumer Price Index (CPI) for the upcoming fee schedule cycle.
Consistent with GCP's recommendation, staff utilized the San Francisco–Oakland–Hayward Urban All Items Index (formerly the San Francisco–Oakland–San Jose Urban All Items Index). This index has historically been applied to adjust fees that are not constrained by local market forces or by state or local laws and ordinances. The CPI increase applicable for 2025-2026 is 3.04%. Fees excluded from this adjustment include those governed by contractual agreements or limited by State or City Code, as noted in the Areas of Exception section below.
This update supports the City's Financial Policies: Strengthening Financial Position (adopted in 2013), which call for regular review of user fees to promote fiscal sustainability and minimize General Fund subsidies where appropriate. The policy states:
The City provides certain services to its residents and businesses that are funded in whole or in part by fees that are intended to cover all or a portion of the cost of providing such services. To the extent User Fees do not cover the entire cost of providing such services, the General Fund subsidizes the additional expense. Careful examination of User Fees shall enhance the stability of the General Fund.
…fees shall be adjusted by no less than the amount of the annual change in the Consumer Price Index.
As directed by the City Council at its March 24, 2026 meeting, the changes have been fully incorporated into the Master Fee Schedule presented with this agenda item. Accordingly, the item includes a resolution for Council consideration to adopt the 2025-2026 Master Fee Schedule at this meeting. If the City Council directs modifications to any fees, staff will return at a subsequent meeting with a revised Master Fee Schedule reflecting those changes prior to implementation.
AREAS OF EXCEPTION TO THE PROPOSED 3.04% INCREASE AND OTHER CHANGES Recreation Services: Recreation Facility Rental fees are market-based, and the Recreation Program fees are tied to community benefit and subsidy level (level of cost recovery). Staff applied the CPI increase selectively, accepting it for programs and rentals below market or cost recovery levels.
Facility Rentals, Facility Day Use offerings, and programs associated with the former Recreation Complex have been removed following its closure on April 4, 2026. In addition to the fee schedule adopted on November 4, 2025, staff proposed supplemental fees for the new Recreation and Aquatic Center to provide expanded options for families and youth organizations. Ice Arena fees will remain unchanged at this time.
Development Services-Building: Staff accepts all applicable CPI increases except for fees increased by the User Fee Study. Permit Technology Fee has been increased in coordination with the Finance Department. Residential Suppression System fees have been renamed as Residential Fire 532
Council Agenda Report April 21, 2026 Page 3 of 5
Sprinkler fee and are now assessed based on construction valuation to reflect current service delivery practices. Re-check Fee for fourth and subsequent re-inspections has been introduced at a higher rate than the standard re-inspection fee to discourage repeat inspection requests without necessary corrections. Notice of Violation (City Code 6.55.550) has been added for clarity, as it was previously captured under other code violations in the Police Department section.
Development Services-Housing: Staff accepts all applicable CPI increases for the current year.
Development Services-Planning: In addition to the fee adjustments recommended to achieve full cost recovery, staff applied most CPI increases for the current year, except for the Inclusionary Housing Requirement, which is not subject to CPI adjustment pursuant to Ordinance 2023-1180.
Inclusionary Housing Plan Check Process fee has been added to recover staff costs associated with reviewing these plans.
Residential Permit Processing has been renamed as Allocation Application Processing for clarity.
Negative Declaration Review and Negative Declaration Preparation fees have been updated from a flat rate to the actual specialist cost plus a 25% administrative fee. Permit Technology Fee has been added to recover the cost of maintaining cloud-based systems. Special Plan Inspections fee has been introduced to reflect demand for services outside regular business hours, including evenings and weekends.
Plan Amendment Deposit has been increased from $8,855 to $10,000 in accordance with the User Fee Study, and a $10,000 deposit has also been added for Annexation reviews. Mobile Vending - New Vendor Permit and Renewal Permit have been removed as these are included within the Location Permit. Public Murals review continues to have no fee pursuant to Resolution 2022-104.
Public Works: Staff applied all CPI increases for the current year except for Transportation Permit fees, which are set by the State.
Consistent with the User Fee Study, the fee structure for Large Multi-Family Residential Public Works plan reviews (7 or more units) has been updated from a fixed amount to an hourly rate, and Grading fees have been streamlined. To accommodate the need for outsourced plan review services, Third-Party Plan Review has been added. Technology Fee is also introduced to recover the cost of maintaining cloud-based systems.
Fire Department: Staff applied all applicable CPI increases for 2025–2026. In accordance with the User Fee Study, redundant or obsolete fees have been removed to simplify the fee schedule. Many fees also move away from the hourly rate and offer a rate per incident as originally intended.
Ceremonial/Special Permit, Tree Removal Permit, Misc. Event Standby, and Basic Fire Inspection hourly rate after 4 hours have been added to reflect the service demand. Fire Administrative Processing fee has also been introduced to recover the administrative staff cost.
Police Department: Per Res 2025-030, Parking Citation for Illegal Parking in an Electric Vehicle Charging Space (City Code 4.25.435) is added to the Master Fee Schedule. Per Resolution 2025- 054, Qualified Vacation Home Rentals are no longer permitted and removed from the schedule. Per Resolution 2025-093, Public Safety Mitigation Fees are eliminated beginning with the 2026 fee cycle. A Repossession Fee is also added in compliance with Government Code Section 41612.
An increase in the Shared Mobility Device fee is recommended to achieve full cost recovery, pending adoption of amendments to Ordinance 2020-1140. In conjunction with this adjustment, penalties of $100 each for Shared Mobility Device Operator Violations and Shared Mobility Device Rider Violations are proposed.

Airport: Staff applied all applicable CPI increases for 2025–2026 except for GA Ramp Fee for A/C under 5,000 lbs, Fuel Flowage Fee, and Hangars. No increase is proposed for those fees as they are already comparable to fair market rates.
534
Council Agenda Report April 21, 2026 Page 5 of 5
Gratuitous Transportation has been removed, and Advertising "Paper" Pick‑Up Ads has been replaced with Advertising Digital to reflect current market demand. Special Event Fee (Celebrity Golf, A/C under 5,000 exempt) has been added to recover the cost of air traffic control services required during major events such as the Celebrity Golf tournament.
City Clerk: Staff proposes opting out of the CPI increase for 2025–2026. Notary Service fees are set by California Government Code Section 8211. Public Property Use Fee for filming has been replaced with four new fees that more accurately reflect the services provided.
Finance: The passage of Measure B on June 5, 2012 precludes any CPI changes to the tax rate per $1,000 of gross receipts and sets the maximum annual tax of $20,000; therefore, no changes to the Business and Professions Tax Rates are proposed. Based on the user fee study, several fees are adjusted to 100% cost recovery except Return Check (NSF) Processing, which is set by California Civil Code 1719. Staff proposes opting out of the CPI increase for 2025–2026.
Financial Implications:
Fees that are less than full cost recovery will be required to be subsidized by other General Fund revenues.
Environmental Considerations:
This is not a "project" subject to review under the California Environmental Quality Act (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:
Implementation of the recommended fees for Fiscal Year 2025-2026 is consistent with the City's adopted Financial Policies of cost recovery for City provided services where applicable. 535
