B. Application and Activity Requirements
At time of application submission, all applications must comply with and provide documentation of HUD’s federal cross cutting requirements found at 24 CFR §570.600, et seq, and summarized in section X Federal Program Requirements of this NOFA, and state overlays.
State overlay areas are as follows:
1. Application verification
Applicants must certify upon submission that their application is true and correct to the best of their knowledge: the required application input fields, attachment uploads, and budgets. Selecting an input field or uploading a blank document to circumvent the application requirements invalidates the application certification and will result in immediate disqualification. Applicants that intentionally input false information or that intentionally upload blank documents will have their good standing with the Department revoked and may be determined to be ineligible for other Department funding. Intentionally providing false information is fraud.
Applicants that rely on consultants or grant writers to prepare the CDBG application are strongly encouraged to review the application for completeness and correctness prior to submittal. It is also strongly encouraged to give plenty of time for submitting prior to the cutoff date and at least several hours prior to the cutoff time.
If an input field, upload requirement, or application component is not functioning correctly, or if there are system outages or other system failures prior to submittal, please contact [email protected] as soon as possible prior to the cutoff time to document the issue so that applications are not disqualified due to technical difficulties. Failure to contact the Department with system issues will not exempt Applicants from application verification requirements.
2. Gap funding and duplication of benefits
CDBG is intended to provide stop-gap funding for crucial infrastructure, public safety, housing, and social service projects. CDBG funds may not be obligated to Activities that are documented to already have sufficient funding for the Activity as described, or that have identified multiple funding sources for the same costs, resulting in a duplication of benefits and overfunding of the Activity. CDBG funds must be “but-for” funding for every Activity and may not be used to supplant local Agenda Item #8.1.
California Department of Housing and Community Development 19 CDBG 2022 NOFA – April 6, 2022
or state resources. CDBG grant funds cannot be used to replace funds that have been budgeted and/or expended from another funding source for the same Activity. Pre-agreement costs are eligible provided that the initial funding for those costs is identified as a temporary funding source (such as a loan from a local fund wherein the loan is float funding the CDBG Activity pre-agreement costs but must be repaid so that the temporary loaned funds may be used as originally intended) and that the costs are budgeted to be part of the CDBG Activity.
3. Good standing
The Applicant, and any co-Applicant, together with all respective affiliates, must be in good standing with the Department (i.e., are current on all loan and/or grant obligations, have a satisfactory past performance history in all their prior dealings with the Department, and are in full compliance with all Department contracts and reporting requirements). Applicants not meeting the foregoing requirements shall be ineligible to apply for or receive funding under this NOFA.
4. Article XXXIV
Applicants engaging in low-income housing project activities that are subject to Article XXXIV of the California Constitution must show that the project approval process complies with Article XXXIV requirements. The state statutes implementing Article XXXIV can be found at HSC §37000. Exceptions to Article XXXIV can be found at HSC §37001.
5. Racial equity
Applicants should prioritize the advancement of racial equity in all CDBG programs and across systems and units of government in the Jurisdiction. The Department asks Applicants to be leaders in the community, facilitating partnerships among service organizations, housing providers, units of government, businesses, the homelessness response system, and other partners to promote racial equity practices.
All Applicants must identify the work performed to ensure racial equity in access to programs, projects, and activities funded with CDBG resources. Applicants must commit to analyzing disproportionality in access to housing, access to services, quality of service provision, and desired outcomes in Programs and Projects and affirmatively further equitable access, quality of service provision and outcomes for protected classes, including but not limited to Black, Native and Indigenous, Latino/Latina/ Latinx, Asian, Pacific Islanders, and other people of color who have been historically marginalized and are disproportionately impacted by housing segregation, poverty, and homelessness.
Agenda Item #8.1.
California Department of Housing and Community Development 20 CDBG 2022 NOFA – April 6, 2022
Applicants cannot simply rely on delivering a standardization of services to address equity. Applicants must commit to reviewing their current policies and procedures and examining available data to ensure all eligible persons receive equitable services, and support, and are served with dignity, respect, and compassion regardless of circumstances, ability, or identity. See Appendix N for Racial Equity Resources and Tools.
When applying for 2022 CDBG funds, Applicants should consider:
• What are the community’s racial demographics and the demographics of those experiencing homelessness, housing, and economic insecurity? • What are the outcomes of the CDBG programs based on race? What are the requirements for all sub-grantees to look at data to determine racial disparities and then put a plan in place to address them? • How do underserved and marginalized communities learn about and access the CDBG program? What marketing and communication strategies are used to increase equitable access to CDBG programming?
• How does the grant-making process include prioritization for programs that are addressing the disproportionate impacts that housing insecurity, homelessness, economic insecurity, lack of access to equitable health care, and COVID-19 has on communities of color, particularly Black, Latinx, Asian, Pacific Islander, and Native and Indigenous communities? • How are the voices of Black, Latinx, Asian, Pacific Islander, and Native and Indigenous communities and those having lived with the experience of housing insecurity, homelessness and economic insecurity being centered in a meaningful, sustained way in creating effective approaches to addressing these challenges? How are they involved in the funding decision-making process?
• How are these funds accessible to smaller and non-traditional organizations that have historically been serving communities of color but may not have previously participated formally in government grant programs? How would these funds address the capacity of organizations that are led by Black, Latinx, Asian, Pacific Islander, and Native and Indigenous people? • Provide a list of partner organizations that are addressing racial equity in the housing and homeless response system, the ED sector, and the health care sector and describe how you partner with them.
The Department will require Applicants to submit related racial and ethnic data metrics of their CDBG programming on a quarterly reporting basis.

The Saint Helena Police Department does not possess or use any equipment specifically designed for military use as defined in Government Code section 7070 (c), nor has the department acquired any equipment through a military surplus program, commonly known as the "1033 Program" (10 USC 2576a).
Copies of agendas and staff reports are available on the Friday afternoon immediately preceding the hearing the City’s website at cityofsthelena.org. Public comment for City Council meetings will be accepted via email to [email protected]. All public comments must be emailed by 3:00 PM prior to the meeting. Emailed public comments will not be read out loud but will be publicly available and attached to the on-line City Council agenda. Please see the end of the City Council agenda for detailed PUBLIC PARTICIPATION instructions.
Community members having questions regarding this policy to contact Chief Chris Hartley [email protected] or by calling 707-967-2850. Chief Hartley welcomes your comments and inquiries about the policy on Military Equipment and conformance with the new legislation on the approval, acquiring, possession, use, and reporting of military equipment defined in Government Code section 7070.

Assembly Bill No. 481
CHAPTER 406
An act to add Chapter 12.8 (commencing with Section 7070) to Division 7 of Title 1 of the Government Code, relating to military equipment. [Approved by Governor September 30, 2021. Filed with
Secretary of State September 30, 2021.]
legislative counsel’s digest
AB 481, Chiu. Law enforcement and state agencies: military equipment:
funding, acquisition, and use.
Existing law designates the Department of General Services as the agency for the State of California responsible for distribution of federal surplus personal property, excepting food commodities, and requires the department to, among other things, do all things necessary to the execution of its powers and duties as the state agency for the distribution of federal personal surplus property, excepting food commodities, in accordance with specified federal law. Existing law, the Federal Surplus Property Acquisition Law of 1945, authorizes a local agency, as defined, to acquire surplus federal property without regard to any law which requires posting of notices or advertising for bids, inviting or receiving bids, or delivery of purchases before payment, or which prevents the local agency from bidding on federal surplus property.
Existing federal law authorizes the Department of Defense to transfer surplus personal property, including arms and ammunition, to federal or state agencies for use in law enforcement activities, subject to specified conditions, at no cost to the acquiring agency.
This bill would require a law enforcement agency, defined to include specified entities, to obtain approval of the applicable governing body, by adoption of a military equipment use policy, as specified, by ordinance at a regular meeting held pursuant to specified open meeting laws, prior to taking certain actions relating to the funding, acquisition, or use of military equipment, as defined. The bill would also require similar approval for the continued use of military equipment acquired prior to January 1, 2022. The bill would allow the governing body to approve the funding, acquisition, or use of military equipment within its jurisdiction only if it determines that the military equipment meets specified standards. The bill would require the governing body to annually review the ordinance and to either disapprove a renewal of the authorization for a type, as defined, of military equipment or amend the military equipment use policy if it determines, based on an annual military equipment report prepared by the law enforcement agency, as provided, that the military equipment does not comply with the above-described standards for approval. The bill would specify these provisions do not preclude a county or local municipality from implementing
92 Agenda Item #8.2.
additional requirements and standards related to the purchase, use, and reporting of military equipment by local law enforcement agencies.
This bill would also require a state agency, as defined, to create a military equipment use policy before engaging in certain activities, publish the policy on the agency’s internet website, and provide a copy of the policy to the Governor or the Governor’s designee, as specified. The bill would also require a state agency that seeks to continue use of military equipment acquired prior to January 1, 2022, to create a military equipment use policy.
This bill would also include findings that the changes proposed by this bill address a matter of statewide concern rather than a municipal affair and, therefore, apply to all cities, including charter cities.
By adding to the duties of local officials with respect to the funding, acquisition, and use of military equipment, this bill would impose a state-mandated local program.
The California Constitution requires local agencies, for the purpose of ensuring public access to the meetings of public bodies and the writings of public officials and agencies, to comply with a statutory enactment that amends or enacts laws relating to public records or open meetings and contains findings demonstrating that the enactment furthers the constitutional requirements relating to this purpose.
This bill would make legislative findings to that effect.
The California Constitution requires the state to reimburse local agencies and school districts for certain costs mandated by the state. Statutory provisions establish procedures for making that reimbursement.
This bill would provide that no reimbursement is required by this act for a specified reason.
The people of the State of California do enact as follows:
SECTION 1. The Legislature finds and declares all of the following:
(a) The acquisition of military equipment and its deployment in our communities adversely impacts the public’s safety and welfare, including increased risk of civilian deaths, significant risks to civil rights, civil liberties, and physical and psychological well-being, and incurment of significant financial costs. Military equipment is more frequently deployed in low-income Black and Brown communities, meaning the risks and impacts of police militarization are experienced most acutely in marginalized communities.
(b) The public has a right to know about any funding, acquisition, or use of military equipment by state or local government officials, as well as a right to participate in any government agency’s decision to fund, acquire, or use such equipment.
(c) Decisions regarding whether and how military equipment is funded, acquired, or used should give strong consideration to the public’s welfare, safety, civil rights, and civil liberties, and should be based on meaningful public input.
92 Ch. 406 — 2 —
Agenda Item #8.2.
(d) Legally enforceable safeguards, including transparency, oversight, and accountability measures, must be in place to protect the public’s welfare, safety, civil rights, and civil liberties before military equipment is funded, acquired, or used.
(e) The lack of a public forum to discuss the acquisition of military equipment jeopardizes the relationship police have with the community, which can be undermined when law enforcement is seen as an occupying force rather than a public safety service.

Agenda Item #8.2.
(4) Collaborating with a law enforcement agency or another state agency in the deployment or other use of military equipment within the territorial jurisdiction of the governing body.
(5) Using any new or existing military equipment for a purpose, in a manner, or by a person not previously approved by the governing body pursuant to this chapter.

(1) Publish the military equipment use policy on the agency’s internet website.
(2) Provide a copy of the military equipment use policy to the Governor or the Governor’s designee.
7074. The Legislature finds and declares that ensuring adequate oversight of the acquisition and use of military equipment is a matter of statewide concern rather than a municipal affair as that term is used in Section 5 of Article XI of the California Constitution. Therefore, this chapter applies to all cities, including charter cities and shall supersede any inconsistent provisions in the charter of any city, county, or city and county. 7075. Nothing in this chapter shall preclude a county or local municipality from implementing additional requirements and standards related to the purchase, use, and reporting of military equipment by local law enforcement agencies.
SEC. 3. The Legislature finds and declares that Section 1 of this act, which adds Chapter 12.8 (commencing with Section 7070) to Division 7 of Title 1 of the Government Code, furthers, within the meaning of paragraph (7) of subdivision (b) of Section 3 of Article I of the California Constitution, the purposes of that constitutional section as it relates to the right of public access to the meetings of local public bodies or the writings of local public officials and local agencies. Pursuant to paragraph (7) of subdivision (b) of Section 3 of Article I of the California Constitution, the Legislature makes the following findings:
Requiring local agencies to hold public meetings prior to the acquisition of military equipment further exposes that activity to public scrutiny and enhances public access to information concerning the conduct of the people’s business.
SEC. 4. No reimbursement is required by this act pursuant to Section 6 of Article XIII B of the California Constitution because the only costs that may be incurred by a local agency or school district under this act would 92 Ch. 406 — 8 —

CITY OF ST. HELENA
RESOLUTION NO. 2022-
Appointing applicants to the Water and Wastewater Rate Study Advisory Committee
RECITALS
A. On December 3, 2021, the City released a Request for Proposals (RFP) for professional services to complete an updated Water and Wastewater Rate study.
The City received a total of eight proposals. Based on the proposal, consultant’s relevant experience, capacity for public engagement, references and interview, staff selected Raftelis; and
B. On March 25, 2022, the City Council awarded a Professional Services Agreement to Raftelis to engage in the activities outlined in the proposal. During the meeting, City Council recommended the formation of an Advisory Committee to provide feedback on the draft rate study; and
C. The advisory committee would consist of representative group of stakeholders from the community appointed to provide comments and advice on the elements of the study and resulting rate structure. The committee will meet on a regular schedule during the rate study to develop a detailed knowledge of the project and to share their relative perspectives, ideas, concerns, and interests. The committee will work to identify areas of common ground and/or consensus to develop recommendations; and
D. Responsibilities include:
a. Reviewing and confirming financing assumptions and options presented by staff and the consultant for CIP projects in the first five years of the Rate Study, giving due consideration to project prioritization (immediate need, number, and estimated cost) and the proper balance of using cash versus debt.
b. Reviewing and confirming significant financial assumptions in the Study, such as reserves, adequacy of sinking funds, and designated and undesignated fund balances in accordance with generally accepted municipal financial principles.
c. Review findings and recommendations to ensure equitable allocation of costs related to industrial, commercial, and residential users, rate models, and recommend appropriate rates and changes with consideration given to location, setting, special demands or unique conditions.

Report to the City Council
Regular City Council - 24 May 2022
Agenda Section: OLD BUSINESS
Subject: Adoption of Resolution Making Findings and Determinations under AB 361 for the Continuation of Virtual Meetings and Discussion and Direction Regarding In-Person Meetings
CEQA
Determination:
Not a CEQA project
Prepared By: Ethan Walsh, City Attorney
Reviewed By: April Mitts, Administrative Services Director Approved By: James C. McCann, Interim City Manager
BACKGROUND
On March 17, 2020, in the face of the COVID-19 pandemic, Governor Gavin Newsom issued Executive Order N-29-20 suspending certain provisions of the Ralph M. Brown Act in order to allow for local legislative bodies to conduct their meetings completely telephonically or by other electronic means.
The provisions in the Brown Act that were suspended by the Governor’s Executive Order are contained at Government Code Section 54953(b)(3) and require that when teleconferencing is used, outside of a statewide emergency, that the following occur:
• An agenda is required to be posted at all locations, including any teleconference locations
• Each teleconference location must be identified on the actual agenda • Each teleconference location shall be accessible to the public • A quorum of the legislative body must be in the jurisdiction With the Governor’s Executive Order, the four above requirements were suspended. This allowed City Council and all other meetings of legislative bodies of the City to be conducted by Zoom with councilmembers, commission members, committee members, and staff all joining from remote locations.
Agenda Item #9.2.
The suspension of certain Brown Act provisions was further extended by the Governor on June 11, 2021 through the issuance of Executive Order N-08-21, which continued to allow for complete virtual meetings until September 30, 2021.
With the Governor’s Executive Order expiring at the end of September 2021, the State Legislature adopted Assembly Bill 361. On September 16, 2021, the Governor signed AB 361, which allowed legislative bodies to meet virtually provided there was a state of emergency declared by the Governor, and either (1) state or local officials have imposed or recommended measures to promote social distancing; or (2) the legislative body determines by majority vote that meeting in person would present imminent risks to the health and safety of attendees, subject to certain ongoing findings by the legislative body.
AB 361 also preserves many of the provisions of the earlier executive orders, including the suspension of the four teleconferencing requirements noted above, while also adding new requirements to the management of remote and teleconference public meetings in order to better achieve the levels of transparency that the Brown Act demands.
Specifically, AB 361 imposes two new rules on remote public meetings:
1. Local governments and agencies hosting teleconference meetings in lieu of traditional in-person public meetings must permit direct public comment during the teleconference, and must leave open the opportunity for public comment until the comment period for a given item is closed during the ordinary course of the meeting. The opportunity to make public comment must be of a sufficient duration so as to allow actual public participation. The City already complies with this requirement, so it presents no change to our current practice.
2. Any action by the governing body during a public teleconference meeting must occur while the agency is actively and successfully broadcasting to members of the public through a call-in option or an internet-based service option. If a technical disruption within the agency’s control prevents members of the public from either viewing the meeting of the public agency, or prevents members of the public from offering public comment, the agency must cease all action on the meeting agenda until the disruption ends and the broadcast is restored. Action taken during an agency-caused disruption may be challenged as a violation of the Brown Act.
The City Council held its first virtual meeting based on the conditions set forth in AB 361 on October 12, 2021. In order to continue to qualify for AB 361’s waiver of in-person meeting requirements, the City Council must, within every 30 days of its first meeting under AB 361, make findings that (a) state or local officials recommend measures to promote social distancing, or that (b) an in-person meeting would constitute an imminent risk to the safety of attendees. State officials at Cal-OSHA have, through the adoption of certain regulations, recommended measures to promote social distancing throughout the State. Additionally, Napa County Public Health Officer Dr. Karen Relucio has, through a memo dated September 27, 2021, recommended the continuance of virtual meetings at Agenda Item #9.2.
the present time as a means of promoting social distancing in order to minimize the spread and transmission of COVID-19 in Napa County.
It is important to note that AB 361 does not require the City to continue with virtual meetings, but simply gives the Council that option. If at any time the City Council desires to return to in-person meetings, the Council can agendize that topic for discussion and direct staff to initiate the transition back to in-person or hybrid meetings; however, at this time City staff is recommending adoption of the resolution to allow City Council and all other Commission, Committee, and other Brown Act meetings to continue to be held remotely in order to ensure social distancing consistent with the recommendations of State and local officials.
At the September 28, 2021 regular City Council meeting, the City Council had a discussion item and considered whether to meet in person or continue virtual meetings.
It was the consensus of the City Council to continue with the Zoom meeting platform until staff is relocated to Napa Valley College.
The City Council determined at the May 10, 2022 City Council meeting to return to inperson meetings starting with the June 7, 2022 Planning Commission meeting.
DISCUSSION
The City Council held its first virtual meeting based on the conditions set forth in AB 361 on October 12, 2021. The City Council reconsidered and adopted findings by resolution to continue meeting virtually on November 23, 2021, December 14, 2021, January 11, 2022, February 8, 2022 and March 8, 2022, March 22, 2022 and April 26, 2022. This is being reconsidered on May 24, 2022.
The enclosed resolution makes the necessary findings for the City Council and all subordinate legislative bodies of the City that are subject to the Brown Act to continue with virtual meetings for the time being. City staff will return to the City Council with a resolution every 30 days to allow for the continuance of virtual meetings for so long as Council and staff believes that virtual meetings are necessary.
As noted above the City Council determined at the May 10, 2022 City Council meeting to return to in-person meetings starting with the June 7, 2022 Planning Commission meeting.
On May 13, 2022, just days after Council direction to return to in-person meetings, Bay Area health officers urged the public to take precautions as COVID levels rise. Twelve Bay Area health officers are stressing the importance of taking safety precautions, including continued masking indoors, as the region experiences a new swell of COVID cases and hospitalizations. Attachment 2 details the full statement from the public health officials.
Agenda Item #9.2.
The Bay Area now has California’s highest COVID infection rates. The current wave is fueled by highly contagious Omicron subvariants. Bay Area counties are seeing increases in reported cases and hospitalizations. Actual case rates are higher than those reported because of widespread use of home tests.
Community members and committee members have contacted staff with concerns of returning to an in-person meeting setting due to the increase in COVID infection rates.
Staff recommends that the City Council have a discussion to consider:
• Remaining in a virtual environment until the emergency is declared over by either our local Public Health Official or the Governor
• Remaining in a virtual environment for an additional two months and revisit returning to in-person after that time
FISCAL IMPACT
There is no fiscal impact.
RECOMMENDED ACTION
Approve the Attached Resolution Making Findings and Determinations Under AB 361 and Consider Remaining in a Virtual Environment.

Bay Area Health Officers Urge Public to Take Precautions as COVID Levels Rise
Twelve Bay Area health officers are stressing the importance of taking safety precautions, including continued masking indoors, as the region experiences a new swell of COVID cases and hospitalizations.
The Bay Area now has California’s highest COVID infection rates. The current wave is fueled by highly contagious Omicron subvariants. Bay Area counties are seeing increases in reported cases, levels of virus in sewer sheds, and hospitalizations. Actual case rates are higher than those reported because of widespread use of home tests.
These health officers reiterate their continued, strong support for people to mask up indoors, keep tests handy, and ensure they are up to date on vaccinations by getting boosters when eligible. “Cases are increasing in Napa County and across the Bay Area and we should use all the tools to prevent transmission, hospitalizations and death, including masking, testing, vaccination and early treatment,” said Napa County Public Health Officer and Deputy Director of Health and Human Services Dr. Karen Relucio.
The grim milestone of 1 million deaths from COVID in the United States underscores the need for continued vigilance against the virus.
Although not required, masking is strongly recommended by the California Department of Public Health for most public indoor settings, and health officials say wearing higher-quality masks (N95/KN95 or snug-fitting surgical masks) indoors is a wise choice that will help people protect their health. Vaccines remain the best protection against severe disease and death from COVID.
Health officials say people should also stay home if they feel sick and get tested right away. Officials also encourage getting tested after potential exposure and limiting large gatherings to well ventilated spaces or outdoors. For people who are more likely to get very sick from COVID-19 infection, medications are available that can reduce your chances of severe illness and death. Talk with your healthcare provider right away if you test positive.
The above statement has been endorsed by health officers from the counties of Alameda, Contra Costa, Marin, Monterey, Napa, San Benito, San Francisco, San Mateo, Santa Clara, Santa Cruz, and Sonoma as well as the City of Berkeley.

Subject: [External] St. Helena City Council Meeting Public Comment Agenda Item 9.2 Cindy, Please include the following public comment under agenda 9.2 during tonight's city council meeting.
Dear St. Helena City Council Members,
I just read agenda item 9.2 scheduled for the May 24, 2022 Council Meeting. I believe if the city decides to hold its utility rate study public meetings virtually it will not receive the amount of public input and perhaps the support needed to a achieve public acceptance of the new utility rate schedule. Holding virtual meetings is a poor substitute for holding open public meetings where comments are received and ideas are exchanged face to face.
If the threat of Covid infection is a concern, I believe the city has the resources to conduct public meetings safely by requiring face masks, safe distancing, and additional protocols to significantly reduce the spread of the virus. Our schools are open, masks are optional in most public spaces, and I just attended a large public gathering in St. Helena last Saturday where over a hundred and fifty people attended where less than a dozen people wore masks.
In my opinion, conducting meetings virtually is a poor substitute for conducting open public meetings.
Especially for such an important event as a utility rate study every five-years. Additionally, not all water customers have the availability to Zoom and I can only say from experience, having to wait an hour or more on the phone to provide one's input to a nonresponding audience is extremely frustrating.
Thank you for your consideration,
Tom and Margot Belt

The second agreement was authorized by City Council as Phase 2 of the COVID Business Recovery Destination Marketing Plan. This was a response to the ongoing effort to increase revenues following the dramatic shift in the economy as a result of COVID-19.

Dear Council Members, Mayor Ellsworth & City Staff,
I am writing in support of the continued FULL funding of the St. Helena Chamber of Commerce. To be clear, by full funding I mean the $220,000 as part of the city contract with the chamber, as well as the additional $100,000 for destination marketing that was included in the FY21/22 budget. These marketing funds are imperative for the continued success of our town’s businesses.
As a local business owner, the Chamber provides support for businesses like mine that we would never be able to accomplish ourselves. With the addition of the much‐needed recovery marketing funding by the city during the pandemic, Amy and her staff & strategic partners have been able to not only turn Main Street businesses around, but to be a model to the other cities in Napa County and throughout California on what a successful, modern Chamber is able to accomplish. This is something we should all feel proud of.
The Chamber does many things for our town that is visible. The Welcome Center on Main Street, Summer Concerts, Sidewalk Sale, holiday decorations and programing in addition to weekly informative and reliable communication between government agencies on all things that affect us as business owners and citizens. What I would like to address specifically is the non‐visible contributions of the Chamber. Sure, you may see the ads and the graphs and metrics that show we are having success and growth, but HOW those efforts show up in my store and on Main Street are far more important to me and should be to you as well.
Over the past 16 months Sportago has seen record growth in 12 of those months with an increasingly positive outlook for 2022. This is all during a challenging pandemic, supply chain delays and staffing shortages. We have all worked hard to emerge from 2020 in one piece, but the Chamber has continually and effectively brought visitors to our town through social media advertising and strategic campaigns with organizations that know how to do this far better than I. This funding was made possible in part by you, our city government, and its realization that what is good for business in St.
Helena is also a valuable investment as the return comes back in the way of TOT, sales tax, full restaurants and sidewalks! In this world of fast paced and ever‐changing advertising, having a knowledgeable voice that reaches my potential customers for me is necessary and vital. That voice is the St. Helena Chamber of Commerce.
Thank you for your prior support of the Chamber and I urge you to fully continue that investment in our town and its’ businesses.
Sincerely
Ahren Trumble

Dear Jim,
Welcome to St. Helena and back to Napa Valley! We are looking forward to working with you as the new Interim City Manager! I am writing this letter as a local real estate agent, business owner and board member of the Chamber of Commerce in support of the requested $320,500 funding to the Chamber of Commerce to help pay for the strategic marketing campaigns for the City of St. Helena. The destination marketing money is critical for attracting more visitors to St. Helena who will spend money on hotels, restaurants, retail stores and real estate. The Chamber of Commerce has had a proven track record of successful digital advertising and media campaigns that have led to revenues coming back to the City of St. Helena. The funding that the Chamber is requesting is critical to keeping the advertising momentum going.
The St. Helena Chamber of Commerce has been very active and has a great presence on Main Street with their Visitor Center and very active employees. They also host summer concerts in Lyman Park, an annual large Christmas Tree, Santa visits, Wine Barrel art projects, Chamber mixers and the Annual luncheon for the Citizen and Employee of the Year as well as other events to stimulate business and community involvement.
Online research indicates that our neighboring community of Yountville’s destination marketing appears to be $304,508 according to the 2021/2022 Budget in Brief. And the City of Calistoga agreed on $300,000 for destination marketing for 2021 per a Napa Valley Register news article. We need the full $320,500 that the St. Helena Chamber of Commerce is requesting for this next year in order to be competitive and successful. Please do not cut the funding. The Chamber of Commerce is respectfully asking the City Council to continue to support all their efforts. Please agree to $320,500 for the coming year for St. Helena Chamber of Commerce. And please agree to the 3 year proposal, so the Chamber can plan ahead.
Thank you for your time and consideration.
Sincerely, KC

Hello Jim,
I am writing as President of Clif Family Winery & Farm. As a small business located in St. Helena, Clif Family strongly relies on the destination marketing programs that the Chamber has successfully implemented in the past few years to keep our business thriving in St. Helena. These marketing programs are vital to driving visitors up valley to support our business. And as a successful business, we are able to continue to serve our local community as well.
In addition to destination marketing, the St. Helena Chamber of Commerce operates our town’s Visitor’s Center with over 20,000 annual visitors, supports community events such as Summer Concerts, Holidays in St. Helena and Celebrate Community Awards and provides business resources, education and training to member businesses.
I encourage the city council to support the funding for the St. Helena Chamber of Commerce so that our community and businesses can continue to thrive.
Thank you,
Linzi Gay
