2.1 Procedures for opening and cleaning a blocked municipal sewer line with a high-velocity waterjet. lndlvldual situations may be unique, but use these basic procedures for any jetting project.
Beet toola: High-velocity flushing trucks. The jet may be a combinatron machine ore truck· or trailer-mounted Jetter.
Types of municipal sewer systems:
• Sanitary eewera carry WBBie from homes and businesses to a municipal wastewater treatment plant
• Storm eewere carry stormwater runoff to streams and rivers. Storm sewers carry heavier waste (sand, slit and gravel) than sanitary sewers.
The size of the pipe and the type of sewer dictate cleaning procedures. • Wear neceaaery PPE: Eye protection, coveralls, hardhat, work boots and work gloves.
• Follow the CaiTrana (MUTCD) Traffic Control Manual and be aware of manhole hazards. •
Follow all OSHA rulee when entering confined spaces (manholes) Proper toola for manhole lid removal: Gas tech, manhole lifter and traffic control
Never enter a manhole (c:onflned•apece) with the line under preaeure because of the poeelblllty of drowning or peraonallnJury. • Follow all safety rules
• Always consider every option available to hydrollush a municipal sewer system In a safe and cost effective manner.
• Ensure that the residents and businesses within the work area or jurisdiction do not experience problems due to high pressure back ups or damage.
Elfectively clean the sewer mains by Incorporating these standard procedures of malntenance, experience, training and available tools to complete required day·to-day operations.

• Determine the direction of flow In the system. Wastewater flows downhill In a gravity-based sewer.
• Use a sewer map and/or your familiarity with the area to Identity the direction of flow. OR remove a manhole lid and look Into the Invert. • Keep moving to the nearest downstream manhole until the blockage is located. A manhole filled with wastewater or with a flow line above the sewer shelf is typically the problem area
• A full manhole means water and debris have entered the manhole, but because of a blockage downstream cannot drain away.
• The blockage is normally between the first empty manhole (downstream) and the first full manhole (upstream) .

• Position the vehlcleJsewer-cleanlng equipment at nearest downstream manhole below the stoppage on the side nearer the blockage.
• On steep lines where the downstream manholes are less than 5 feet deep, necessary precautions to prevent secondary overflows at downstream manholes must be taken.
Form a containment ba.rrlcade near the downstream manhole with use of sandbags, etc.
• Position the water jet over the 1st empty manhole downstream of the blockage • If not already anached, anach 20'·25' of leader hose (a hose of a different color) to the regular hose - this serves as a benchmark for insertion & retrieval (NOTE: A Ieeder hose helps prevent the hose from exiting the pipe prematurely & causing injury/)
DO NOT use the eltemelive method of marking the jet hose five feet from the end/ • Install a nozzle extension between the end of the hose & the nozzle to prevent the nozzle and hose !Tom tumlng up a service lateral causing damage. • Lower the hose, nozzle extension & nozzle Into the manhole & Into the pipe Invert • Insert the jet hose through the Tiger Tall & tie the device in place to stabilize it. Note:

Ensure that the hose, the noule extension and nozzle are Inserted Into the pipe completely and the hose Is protected by a hose guide device (i.e. Tiger TaiQ. • Run the line with just enough pressure to reach the blockage. When you reach the block~e. the hose should stop.
• Begin hydro flushing. Adjust water pressure es needed, but do not exceed 2500psl. • Clean the sewer from the lower end to the higher and of the flow so that when the hose Is retrieved, it works whh the downward grade of the pipe and allows for more efficient cleaning of remaining debris.
NOTE: In sewer lines where toilets have bubbled or overflowed dua to high pressure back flushing, a lower pressure must be used to p.revent additional backups • If the hose does not advance, pull back on It and then let go (Be cereful not to streln your back/). Repeat the steps until the hose breaks through the blockage.
If the hose breaks through and the One Is still plugged, run the hose until you M another plug, then repeat the steps again. • Clear the blockage by working from the lower end to the higher end of the flow, • Pull the hose back In a slow continuous speed to ensure that the line Is being cleaned sufficiently. Bringing the hose back to fast will leave the pipe with areas not cleaned, which Is an unacceptable level of cleaning.
NOTE: Always jet the line a few feet at a time, returning the dablfs to the manholecompletely remove dabrls so further blockages are not created downstream/ Pulllng heavy debris is time-consuming and Jabon"ous, end If not done properlY can causa the hose and nozzle to ba buried and stuck. Th611 you may need to dig up the sewer. • The debris Is pulled t.o the manhole by the water flow and the retumlng hose and noule. Allow the hose to enter slowly on the Initial passes and pull the hose and noule back occasionally to prevent them from exiting a defeotlve pipe or becoming burled In debris.
• Remove the debris uslng the vaouum portion of the combination truck, or a debris removal hand tool. Anytime you hydro flush a sewer, remove the debris completely to avoid future stoppages. II this can~ be done, then drag the debris Into a high flow trunk maln to prevent a stoppage from occurring downstream. • Always took into the bottom of 1he manhole for the amount and type of debris being putted from the pipe to determine the number of passes and the length of the passes needed to clean the sewer etfeotlvely .

General Safety Guidelines
• Know your equipment: never operate the rodder in excess of It's rated capacity, speed, pressure and temperature
• Take your time: Trying to move too fast or trying to force a blockage can be disastrous FG
2.2 • Inspect equipment before AND after every job: check the condition of the rod. guides, engine and assemblies
• Wear the required PPE Including gloves at all times when operating the roddlng equipment • Be aware of working near confined spaces:
o Always suspect gas and test for it
o Never smoke around a manhole
o Never open a manhole whtle standing over it
o Give the opening time to ventilate before beginning work • Never touch the rod when it's rotating and never rotate the rod until everyone Is clear • Be aware of contamination hazards
• Use proper traffic safety procedures when s~tting up on the street • Do not enter the manhole to change tools
• Never grasp the rod or coupling with your hands until all torque Is relieved. 'f

3. Each residence contributes about 240 gallons per day or about 10 gallons per hour. Multiply the number of residences by 10 and by the number of hours. This gives you the number of gallons.
NOTES:
a. Remember that H}·gallons per hour is an estimate. This number will be higher during peak water usage times and lower during low water usage times. Take this Into account when estimating the overflow volume.

Determining Overflow
Flow From a Manhole Pick Hole
The formula used to develop Table 3 Is Q::CcVA, where Q Is equal to the quantity of the flow In gallons per minute, Cc Is equa.l to the coefficient of contraction (.63), VIs equal to the velocity of the overnow, and A Is equal to the area ollhe pick llole, • If all units are In feet, the quantity will be calculated In cubic feet per second, which when multiplied bY 448.8 will give the answer In gallons per minute. (One cubic loot per second Is equal to 448.8 gallons per minute, hence this conversion method).
EXample Overflow Estlmatton
The maintenance hole cover ts In place and the height oi water coming out of the pick hole seven-eighths of an Inch In diameter (718") Is 3 Inches {3"). This will produce an SSO flow of approximately 4. 7 gallons pet minute.

Agenda Item #9.1.
City of St. Helena Page 7-1
Sewer System Management Plan Version 8 – January 2023
7 Fats, Oils, and Grease (FOG) Control Program
The following subsections describe the City’s ongoing efforts to control FOG.
7.1 Identification & Sewer Cleaning
During routine sewer cleaning, the City has identified areas or line segments of the wastewater collection system that are subject to grease stoppages and have established a prioritized cleaning schedule for each area. These “hot spots” require more frequent cleaning and further control of FOG sources. Areas with previous SSOs caused by grease or roots are reviewed more frequently to prevent re-occurrence and routine maintenance is conducted bimonthly.
7.2 Source Control
The City has developed source control activities for educating local businesses about FOG control. New businesses are given a package of materials upon opening their business (see Attachments to this chapter). Additionally, restaurants are required to maintain a log book of grease trap cleaning and are notified that the City may inspect their establishment at any time. Annual mailers are sent to restaurants reminding them of their requirements and of good operating practices (see attached, “A Guide for Food Service Facilities” available in English and Spanish). The City also posts pollution prevention information online at https://whttps://www.cityofsthelena.org/publicworks/page/pollution-prevention-illicitdischarge.
7.3 Facility Inspection
All restaurants and food establishments are subjected to an annual Health, FOG, Stormwater inspection performed by the Napa County Department of Environmental Management. At the time of inspection, facilities are given FOG control brochures as well as a list of grease disposal companies for Napa County.
In addition to the annual inspection by County, the City conducts an inspection after any FOG-related SSO or if field crews witness improperly stored or spilled materials (usually in the back of the restaurants). During these inspections, restaurant staff are educated on FOG and asked to post educational materials around sinks and trash areas. Follow up inspections are conducted to ensure changes are implemented. A limited number of random inspections are conducted each year, when workload constraints allow.
7.4 Legal Authority
The City requires businesses to install and maintain a grease removal device (grease trap, interceptor or vault) depending on the type of food service business (restaurants, bakeries, etc.) to collect grease as part of this program. The City has a subsection on grease trap requirements in its municipal code, which is also included as an attachment to this chapter.

A. All restaurants and food preparation businesses producing discharges of wastewater that at any time exceed the limitations of Section 13.24.030(H)(2) shall install and maintain in good operating condition at all times a greasetrap or grease interceptor sufficient to process all wastewater containing grease or oil produced or occurring on the premises, and all wastewater containing grease or oil shall be processed through said greasetrap prior to any discharge thereof into the community sewers.
B. All greasetraps or grease interceptors installed and maintained pursuant to subsection A of this section shall conform to the approved designs and specifications maintained on file by the public works director or shall conform to the Uniform Plumbing Code and be approved in design and specifications by the public works director.
C. All restaurants and food preparation businesses existing on the effective date hereof, which are required by subsection A of this section to install a greasetrap or grease interceptor shall complete installation of the same within sixty (60) days after the effective date hereof.
All restaurants and food preparation services required to comply with subsection A of this section which are established after the effective date hereof shall complete installation of the required greasetrap or grease interceptor prior to opening for business.
D. All parties maintaining a greasetrap or grease interceptor shall maintain the same in good operating condition and shall clean and dispose of the accumulated waste as frequently as is necessary to maintain proper operating conditions. None of the waste materials cleaned from any such wastetrap or waste interceptor shall be disposed of into any city storm drain or sewer manhole nor in any other manner which constitutes a public or private nuisance.
Violations of this subsection shall constitute an infraction.
E. The city’s public works director and any Napa County environmental health personnel acting under his or her directions may enter any restaurant or food preparation business premises where any such greasetrap or grease interceptor is required to be maintained to inspect such devices periodically or whenever deemed necessary to ascertain whether all requirements of this section are being complied with.

Help Prevent Pollution:
A Guide for Food Service Facilities
Pollution Prevention
Clean and healthy creeks, rivers, and bays are important to the City of St. Helena. However, allowing debris from your business to enter the gutter and storm drains can lead to water pollution. Storm drains carry rainwater from our streets, and should never contain wash water, trash, grease or other materials. Unlike substances that enter the sanitary sewers (from sinks and toilets), substances that enter the storm drains do not receive treatment before entering our waterways. In addition, blocked sewer lines can cause raw sewage to back up into kitchens, bathrooms, city streets, storm drains, and our waterways.
This brochure will explain steps your food establishment can take to help preserve water quality by keeping debris out of storm drains and by preventing fats, oils, and grease from blocking sewer lines.
Agenda Item #9.1.
Use Grease Interceptors To Capture Fats, Oils, and Grease (FOG).
Cleaning Spills and Equipment
• Never hose a spill into a gutter, street or storm drain! • Before mopping a wet kitchen spill, absorb it with towels, cat litter or other absorbent materials.
• Sweep up dry spills immediately and dispose of the material in the trash.
• Scrape grease and food waste from floor mats and filters before cleaning. Dispose of scrapings in trash.
• After scraping, clean floor mats, filters, and garbage cans in a mop, sink or a designated, curbed area connected to the sanitary sewer. Consider using a cleaning service for these activities.
Absorb Wet Spills With Cat Litter Or Towels; Discard In The Trash Dumpster/Grease Bin Area Cleaning
• Keep the area around the dumpster clear of trash and other debris.
Do not overfill the dumpster.
• Cover dumpsters to block insects, animals, rainwater and wind. • Sweep or vacuum up trash and throw it away.
• Absorb wet spills with cat litter, towels or similar materials.
Discard in the trash.
• Do not rinse your dumpster area! Doing so can cause grease and trash to enter the storm drains.
• Have leaky dumpsters replaced.
Agenda Item #9.1.
Use Janitorial Mop Sinks For Cleaning Mops, Towels, And Floor Mats.
Prevent Fats, Oils, and Grease from Blocking the Sewers Fats, oils, and grease (FOG) can cause sewer line blockages which can make sewage overflow into your facility and into storm drains that lead to the Napa River. To stop the substances from building up in sewer lines, prevent them from entering your drains.

Regional Water Pollution Control
Agency.
Practices in the Kitchen
• Collect waste cooking oil and grease in portable
containers with lids. Transfer into drums or barrels for recycling.
• Do not pour oil or grease down any drain. Recycle or use absorbent materials and dispose of waste in the trash.
• Dry-wipe pots, pans, dishware, and work areas to
remove all visible grease before washing. Dispose of
waste in the trash.
• Use drain screens to capture food waste and dispose of properly into the trash.
• Train employees about proper grease disposal and post “NO GREASE” signs near all sinks or drains.
Maintenance of Grease Traps and Interceptors
• Reduce solids going to the grease trap or interceptor. • Inspect and clean grease traps frequently to ensure
proper operation.
• Have a licensed company inspect and pump out grease
interceptors regularly to ensure proper operation.
• Keep maintenance records on-site for reference and
regulatory review.

Tratamiento y almacenamiento de grasas
♦ No vierta aceite de cocina ni grasa para cocinar en fregaderos ni en desaguaderos ubicados en el piso; tampoco los vierta en estacionamientos, en drenajes de aguas pluviales o en la calle. ♦ Elimine o recicle el aceite de cocina y la grasa para cocinar por medio de un transportista de desperdicios de grasas autorizado o de una agencia de reciclado de grasas autorizado. Busque transportistas y agencias de reciclado de grasas en las Páginas Amarillas bajo el nombre de “tallow” (sebo o grasa animal).
♦ Realice un mantenimiento de los interceptores de aceites y grasas al menos una vez al mes. Para que los interceptores de aceites y grasas funcionen correctamente, no deben contener más de 1/3 de su capacidad de capa de grasa flotante ni más de 1/4 de su capacidad de sedimento en el fondo (www.oracwa.org). ♦ Debe realizarse un mantenimiento semanal de los colectores de grasa instalados bajo los fregaderos. Será necesario mantenerlos con más frecuencia si la grasa sobrepasa el 50% de capacidad del colector (www.oracwa.org).
♦ Límpielos en seco. Use rascadores para quitar los desperdicios de alimentos de la vajilla, las ollas, las sartenes, las parrillas y las superficies para cocinar antes de limpiarlas con agua. Deseche los desperdicios de alimentos en un receptáculo para basura, envíelos a una empresa de alimentación de animales o done las sobras de alimentos en buen estado a un banco de alimentos. ♦ Coloque papel para alimentos para absorber el aceite y la grasa bajo los canastos de las sartenes.
Deseche el papel engrasado en un receptáculo para basura. ♦ Es ilegal manipular o desechar inapropiadamente cualquier producto que pueda fluir hacia un drenaje de aguas. Tanto la empresa como las personas responsables de esto están sujetas a enjuiciamiento civil y criminal.

Sewer System Management Plan Version 8 – January 2023
8 System Evaluation and Capacity Assurance Plan
8.1 Capacity Assessment
The City prepared the Wastewater Treatment and Reclamation Plant Treatment Facilities Evaluation Update in March 2015. This study reviewed current flow data, capacity, effluent quality, and growth projections in order to evaluate treatment capacity and effluent quality.
The study concluded that the current plant capacity was adequate to meet future demands, and identified projects that would improve treatment efficiency and effluent quality. The City also performed a collection system analysis in the City of St. Helena WWTRP Upgrades Project Summary memorandum (March 23, 2006). This memorandum described the results of analyses conducted to evaluate current and future influent flows to the WWTRP, and the resulting capacity that would be required. The Integrated Utility Master Plan (April 2021) also depicts system capacity shortfall and a Capital Improvement Program strategy, subject to funding capacity.
The City’s Capital Improvement Plan for Fiscal Years 2022/2023 through 2026/2027 includes pump station upgrades, replacement of existing lines to reduce inflow and infiltration, and improvements to the treatment plant (see detailed description of projects in Section 4.3).
8.2 System Evaluation and Capacity Assurance Plan
As noted above and in Section 4 (Operation and Maintenance), specific projects budgeted in the Capital Improvement Plan include installation of pipe liners, sealing of manholes, disconnection of existing building drains to reduce infiltration and inflow, replacement of existing lines, and improvements to the treatment plant.

Sewer System Management Plan Version 8 – January 2023
9 Monitoring, Measurement, and Program Modifications
The intention of this section is to monitor the effectiveness of each SSMP element and update and modify SSMP elements to keep them current, accurate, and available for audit as appropriate. One way to track the effectiveness of each SSMP element is to use performance indicators. Performance indicators will be used during the audit process to determine any deficiencies in the SSMP. Examples of performance indicators that will be used to assess the SSMP include:
• Number of SSOs over time
• Volume distribution of SSOs
• Volume of SSOs contained versus total volume
• SSOs by cause (roots, grease, debris, etc.)
Updates captured in Version 8 of the SSMP for each of the SSMP sections are summarized below.
1 Goals
The City of St. Helena’s goals still include the proper management, operation, and maintenance of all parts of the wastewater collection system, adequate capacity to convey peak flows, minimizing frequency of SSOs, and mitigating the impact of SSOs. 2 Organization
The City’s organization chart and roles have been updated to show the current roles and organization of the Public Works Department.
3 Legal Authority
The City’s Sewer Service and Wastewater Discharge Ordinances demonstrate the City’s legal authority to control infiltration and inflow (I/I) and to require proper construction, testing and inspection of their sewer system. No changes have been made to these ordinances since the last version of the SSMP. In January/February 2023, the City will be updating the Municipal Code to require that the responsibility of ongoing ownership and maintenance of sewer laterals (both on private property and within the public Right-ofWay) lie with property owners. 4 Operation and Maintenance Program
4.1 Collection System Map
A map of the City’s collection system is maintained and updated periodically based on the Sewer System Supervisor’s guidance. No updates were needed in Version 8 of the SSMP.
4.2 Prioritized Preventive Maintenance
This section was updated to confirm the City’s policy of not using chemical root control.
Agenda Item #9.1.
City of St. Helena Page 9-2
Sewer System Management Plan Version 8 – January 2023
4.3 Rehabilitation and Replacement
The section was revised to include information from the current CIP for years 2022/2023 to 2026/2027 and to note that the City’s CIP priorities are informed by the recentlyadopted IUMP The City has also raised its wastewater rate fees to fund these efforts.
4.4 Training
The Collection System Operation Team continues to participate in several trainings per year.
4.5 Contingency Equipment and Replacement Inventories
This section was revised to include recent equipment purchases since the time of the last SSMP update.
5 Design and Performance Provisions
5.1 Standards for Installation, Rehabilitation, and Repair Section 6 of the City of St. Helena Water and Sewer Standards includes design criteria as that are periodically reviewed and updated as necessary. No updates have been made since the last version of the SSMP. A copy of the standards is no longer included in the SSMP. They are available online on the City’s Public Works website.
5.2 Standards for Inspection and Testing of New and Rehabilitated Facilities The information in this section is up to date. No revisions were needed for Version 8 of the SSMP.
6 Overflow Emergency Response Plan
The description of the City’s Sewer Overflow Response Plan presented in Section 6 of the SSMP is up to date. The Plan itself (included as an SSMP attachment) was updated to include the new City Organization Chart.
7 Fats, Oils, and Grease (FOG) Control Program
The City continues to identify and clean sections of the sewer system that are subject to grease blockages. The City continues to distribute materials regarding source control activities to educate local businesses about FOG control. Random inspections and inspections upon notice of an issue continue to take place. 8 System Evaluation and Capacity Assurance Plan
8.1 Capacity Assessment
No updates were needed in Version 8 of the SSMP.
8.2 System Evaluation and Capacity Assurance Plan

Report to the City Council
Regular City Council - 28 Mar 2023
Agenda Section: CONSENT ITEMS
Subject: February 2023 Review and Forecasting of City Water Supply Availability
CEQA
Determination:
Exempt
Prepared By: Ian Dale, Environmental Services Tech
Reviewed By: Joseph Leach, Public Works Director and City Engineer Approved By: April Mitts, Assistant City Manager
BACKGROUND
The City of St. Helena publishes a monthly water report on the City website (www.cityofsthelena.org/publicworks/page/water-reports). The report includes the amount of water produced at the Louis Stralla Water Treatment Plant and the Stonebridge Potable Water Wells, and potable water delivered from the City of Napa. In addition to presenting data on the amount delivered monthly, the report includes year-to-date information and prior year data. Water elevation and capacity at the Bell Canyon Reservoir is included as well as information on rain and temperatures.
At the City Council meeting of July 27, 2021, the City Council requested City staff enhance the monthly water report to include a forecast of available water supply, consistent with the adopted Urgency Ordinance. This request is consistent with the City's Fiscal Year 2021-22 Council Goal to develop a Comprehensive Water Security Framework, and the recently developed Framework that includes a goal to "Maximize Conservation During Water Emergency" and subtask 1C to "provide customers with comparison of actual vs. projected water demand" as well as Framework Goal Improve Consumer Satisfaction and Confidence" and subtask 3C to "additional analytical tools to improve consumer confidence."
DISCUSSION
Agenda Item #9.2.
City staff has developed a forecasting tool to facilitate its ability to optimize water use and track water availability. Included as Attachment 1 is the Monthly Water Report for February 2023. The water produced for February 2023 is down by -11% when compared to February 2022 and is down -24% compared to the average of February 2018-2020.
Below is a chart summarizing the water produced per source:

Percent change from average of February 2019 - 2021: -24% Bell Canyon Reservoir
The City is still in drought conditions. Bell Canyon Reservoir has adequate water to support the City's needs through this calendar year with Phase I conservation measures in effect. The storage in Bell Canyon graph (Attachment 2) has been revised to include historic reservoir supply levels since July 2021. It also shows the water availability forecast through June 2024 based on the highest water usage during a non-drought year (FY 2019/20) and 10 inches of rainfall (lowest recorded).
As of March 1, 2023, Bell Canyon Reservoir elevation was at 422.32 feet representing approximately 2,383.69 acre feet (AF) and 100% capacity. Bell Canyon spillway level is 422 feet representing 2,383.69 acre feet in water supply volume. Below is a chart comparing Bell Canyon elevation levels, water supply availability in acre feet, and percent capacity of the reservoir on March 1st in 2021, 2022, and 2023.
Year 2021 2022 2023
Bell Canyon Elevation Level 400.11 Ft. 419.40 Ft. 422.32 Ft.
Acre Feet 954 AF 2,187 AF 2,383 AF
Percent Capacity 40% 91.8% 100%
As a follow up to the May 24th City Council meeting, staff developed a graph (Attachment 3) highlighting the relationship between the reservoir elevation level and water supply availability in acre feet. The graph shows the current status of the reservoir. Furthermore, the graph also displays the points where City Council decided to implement Phase I and Phase II drought restrictions in 2020.
Continued Water Conservation
California experienced two consecutive dry years 2020 and 2021 and drought conditions state-wide persist. Due to the combination of warmer-than-average temperatures and Agenda Item #9.2.
minimal precipitation in the state, the Department of Water Resources (DWR) declared 2021 as the fourth-driest year on record statewide. The record-breaking dry period in January and February 2022, and the absence of significant rains in March, have required DWR to reduce anticipated deliveries from the State Water Project (SWP). However, the reduction does not affect St. Helena as the City has multiple robust water sources not affected by the executive order. Water availability from the Bell Canyon reservoir is based on the City's State Water Rights permit and not the SWP. The City has not received any curtailment order from DWR nor does the City anticipate receiving one.
Due to the ongoing drought conditions, Phase I Water Emergency remains in effect, even though Bell Canyon Reservoir level is above the level when Council initially called for Phase I conservation. Staff will monitor State-wide and local drought conditions, weather conditions, and provide updates on a monthly basis.
City of Napa Water Supply
Normal operations continue at Rutherford Pump Station (RPS) and the City is taking delivery of the allotment purchased from City of Napa. During the month of February 2023, Rutherford Pump Station was producing an average of 0.493 MG/day for a total of 42.42 acre feet (AF) for the month.

Agenda Section: CONSENT ITEMS
Subject: Review and consideration of the 2022 St. Helena Annual Housing Element Progress Report.
CEQA
Determination:
Not a CEQA project
Prepared By: Aaron Hecock, Senior Planner
Reviewed By: Maya DeRosa, Community Development Director Approved By: Anil Comelo, City Manager
BACKGROUND
In 1969, the state mandated that all California cities, towns, and counties must plan for the housing needs of residents regardless of income. This state mandate is called the Housing Element (HE) and Regional Housing Needs Allocation (RHNA). The California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) determines the total number of new homes the Bay Area needs to build and how affordable those homes need to be in order to meet the housing needs of people at all income levels. The numbers are provided to the Association of Bay Area Governments (ABAG) who then divides them up between all Bay Area jurisdictions.
Pursuant to Government Code Section 65400, by April 1st of each year, cities are required to submit an annual report to the Governor's Office of Planning and Research (OPR) and HCD outlining the progress made towards implementing the City’s HE.
Specifically, the Annual Progress Report (APR) is required to detail local efforts to remove governmental constraints to the maintenance, improvement, and development of housing. In addition, the APR must detail the actions taken by the local government towards completion of the programs and status of the local government’s compliance with the deadlines in its HE.
On May 26, 2015, the City of St. Helena adopted its 5th cycle state-mandated Housing Element update, spanning the years 2015-2023. This Housing Element details how the Agenda Item #9.4.
City plans to accommodate a total of 31 RHNA units within this time frame. The Community Development Department is providing this annual update to inform the Council and public on the progress being made to implement the Housing Element policy priorities.
The City is currently in the process of updating the Housing Element for the 6th RHNA cycle (2023-2031) with adoption anticipated in May 2023.
DISCUSSION
The current Housing Element details goals, policies, quantified objectives, and implementing actions for the development, rehabilitation, and preservation of housing based upon the findings of the Housing Needs Assessment and input received through public outreach. The Housing Element is divided into two elements (1) the Housing Needs Assessment and (2) the Housing Element Update, which includes six goals, policies, and an eight-year action plan. These six overarching goals (listed below) endeavor to facilitate housing development:
1. A Diversity of Housing to Meet Local Needs
2. Efficient Land Use and High Quality Neighborhoods
3. Conservation of Existing Housing
4. Assistance to Support Affordable Housing
5. Resource Conservation
6. Equal Housing Opportunities
The implementation of these goals are supported by a number of Policies, Implementing Actions, and Quantified Objectives. As reported in the 2022 APR, the City Council and staff have implemented and met several of the Housing Element goals and programs, including some of the quantified objectives and implementing actions of several goals of the City's adopted Housing Element.
HCD requires a report to the City Council at a public meeting. Given this, staff has attached APR worksheets to supplement the information provided in this report. For an implementation progress update on the policies being implemented, or anticipated timeline for their implementation (from the staff perspective), the Council and community should refer to attached Table D from the APR worksheet. The required APR was submitted to and accepted by OPR and HCD prior to the April 1, 2023 deadline.
As identified in Table B of the APR, the City has issued building permits for 127 new residential units (including ADUs) during this 2015-2023 RHNA Cycle, while the RHNA allocation from HCD was 31. However, the City has not yet met the individual affordable housing goals for very-low and moderate income categories identified in the RHNA allocations. It should be noted that one deed restricted moderate income unit (in addition to 4 low income units) were approved as part of the 963 Pope Street affordable housing project. Once building permits are issued for this project, those units will count toward our RHNA allocation.
Agenda Item #9.4.
The 2015-2023 Housing Element and supporting information can be found at the following link:

www.sthelenahousing.com
FISCAL IMPACT
Given that the adopted Housing Element is an eight-year policy document, the fiscal impacts of implementing and meeting the goals of the 2015-2023 Housing Element are dependent on which of these goals are chosen to be addressed within a given budget year, and how the individual tasks are assigned (City staff vs consulting staff). As specific elements of the policy direction are brought forward, staff will provide individual costs and staff resources needed to accommodate each.
RECOMMENDED ACTION
It is recommended that the City Council review, consider, and file this report recognizing that staff submitted the information to HCD and OPR in keeping with the April 1, 2023 mandate.

This is expected to occur concurrently with the comprehensive zoning code update (in 2023). Potential revisions to the inclusionary housing requirements will be included as a part of this review. In preparing for this process, the City commissioned a "White Paper" on housing issues to further highlight the housing needs and opportunities available within the community. The City has also begun its 6th Cycle Housing Element Update which will identify Key Housing Opportunity Sites and potenital rezoning oppotunities withing the City.
Goal 3 Quantified Objective:
Assist in the acquisition of low-interestloans for rehabilitation, including energy conservation, of 10 lower-income housing units by January 31, 2023 of the end of the Housing Element planning period (2 extremely low income, 2 very low income, 3 low income, and 3 moderate incomehouseholds). 12/31/2022
City was awarded $500,000 HOME funds grant in 2017 and initiated implementation of a program to make 0-interest, 0-payment 30-year loans for rehabilitation work to owners of deed restricted homes. To date, the City has expended or committed approximately $448,000 of these funds to assist 18 low income home owners and continues to roll out funds as loans are repaid. The City was awarded another $500,000 in HOME funds in 2020 however the City is waiting for approval from HCD to begin processing loan requests as they review the updated guidelines and environmental documentation.
Agenda Item #9.4.
Goal 1-Quantified
Objective:
Construct 4 units of affordable housing to Extremely-Low income households; 4 units of housing affordable housing to Very Low Income households; 5 units for Low Income households; 5 units for Moderate Income households; and 13 units for above Moderate Income households by October 31, 2022 (31 total RHNA). 12/31/2022
The City has issued building permits for the Turley Flats affordable housing project, an 8-unit multifamily project with loan funding from the AffordableHousing Trust Fund (all low income). Occupancy of all units occurred in 2019.
Further, the City has issued building permits for the Brenkle Court 8-unit affordable housing project (2 very-low and 6 low income). In 2020, the City approved a deed restricted affordable housing project (4 low to very-low income and 1 moderate income) at 963 Pope Street. The combined affordability of these units is expected to help the City make significant progress toward meeting these unit counts.
Goal 4 Qualtified Objective:
Reduce, defer or waive fees for 18housing units affordable to extremely low, low, very low and moderate income households. 12/31/2022
The City has both reduced and deferred fees (through a loan from the Affordable Housing Trust Fund) for the Turley Flats Affordable Housing Project, an 8-unit multi-family development at 1105 Pope St, the Brenkle Court 8-unit affordable housing project access off of McCorkle, and the 5-unit affordable houisng project at 963 Pope Street. Combined, the City has reduced, deferred or waived fees for 21 affordable housing units as of Jan. 1, 2022.

Determination:
Exempt
Prepared By: Eric Janzen, Assistant Public Works Director Reviewed By: Joseph Leach, Public Works Director and City Engineer Approved By: Anil Comelo, City Manager
BACKGROUND
The City of St. Helena has contracted with BKF Engineering to provide engineering and landscape architect services for the Main Street St. Helena Pedestrian Improvements Project (CIP Project ID. #R18-81). On December 11, 2018, the City Council approved STH Contract: FY 2019-075 with BKF in the amount of $529,000 for engineering and landscaping services for the Main Street St. Helena Pedestrian Improvements Project.
Amendments to this contract were approved by City Council on May 28, 2019 and June 11, 2019 to expand the scope of improvements on Main Street. These amendments increased the contract not-to-exceed amount to $635,600.
Due to budget constraints, on November 9, 2021 the City Council endorsed segmenting the Main Street St. Helena Pedestrian Improvements Project into two phases. On December 14, 2021, the City Council approved an amendment to STH Contract: FY 2019- 075 to prepare bid documents for the northern segment of the project, Main Street from Pine Street to Adams Street. This amendment also allocated funding for title reports and Agenda Item #9.6.
right-of-way exhibits for both the northern and southern segments. This amendment increased the contract not-to-exceed amount to $781,600.
No funding was allocated with the 2021 amendment for additional engineering or landscape architect services for the southern segment of the project, Main Street from Adams Street to the Sulphur Creek Bridge.
DISCUSSION
While funding for the project is not yet fully amassed, City Staff is preparing to move forward with the southern segment of the Main Street St. Helena Pedestrian Improvements Project (Main Street from Adams Street to the Sulphur Creek Bridge). The goal being to be able to swiftly initiate a Request for Proposals (RFP) as soon as funding becomes available.
BKF has special knowledge of this project and had developed 90% plans for the southern segment prior to November 9, 2021 decision to segment the project. Continuing to work with BKF preserves this past work and is the most cost-effective solution to make the project bid ready. Therefore, the contract with BKF needs to be amended to provide additional engineering and landscape architect services. BKF will also provide bid documents including technical specifications and engineer’s estimate.
Public Works Staff received a quote from BKF for the additional scope of work in the amount of $151,000 and it is included in the attachments presented with this staff report.
This amendment will increase the contract not-to-exceed amount to $932,600.
FISCAL IMPACT
Total fiscal impact is $151,000, which will be funded utilizing unallocated Gas Tax Funds (Funds 225, 226, 227, 228, and 229).
RECOMMENDED ACTION
Approve Resolution to execute contract amendment with BKF for design work related to the Main Street St. Helena Pedestrian Improvements Project and authorizing a budget increase of $151,000 to design in CIP Project R18-81 with funding allocated from Gas Tax Funds to Streets Capital Fund 741.

Subject: St. Helena Downtown Sidewalk Improvements
Additional Scope of Work – Phases Project
Dear Joe,
BKF Engineers welcomes the opportunity to submit this proposal for additional services associated with the Main Street Project located in the City of St. Helena, California. To arrive at the estimated effort required by our office for this project, we have outlined a proposed scope of services, identified assumptions, and determined a level of effort fee based on our understanding of the project.
SCOPE OF SERVICES
We understand your desire to separate the plans into separate packages along with additional ancillary work associated with the improvements.
Base Scope Items Include:
1. Separate PS&E (Plans, Specifications, and Estimate) Packages. Based on the funding of the project, we understand that the City desires to create a separate PS&E package for Phase 2 so that the project could be procured separately. This includes separating the Plans and Specifications into two packages along with providing two separate engineers estimates.
2. Sewer Design. We understand that the City has determined that they will replace sewer laterals between the existing buildings and the curb. BKF will document these sewer replacements.
3. Tree/Curb Zone Design Alternative. Based on the relationship between some of the existing building finish floors and the existing Caltrans road surface elevation, the current design utilizes a steepened crossslope between the accessible pedestrian zone and the curb. We understand the City’s desire to study this zone to determine if alternative materials, steps, or planting could be used in lieu of concrete.
4. Plat and Legal Descriptions. With Amendment #3, we had estimated that 37 plat and legal descriptions would be necessary to complete the easement or right of way acquisition. Based on the right of way survey along the corridor, an additional eleven (11) plats and legal descriptions are needed to acquire the rights to construct the improvements.
5. Separate Packages Bid Support. We have allocated 40 hours of additional engineering support during the bidding of the project to answer questions from the bidders, assist in bid clarifications, and/or to prepare conform plans as separate bids/packages.
Agenda Item #9.6.
February 24, 2023
Additional/Optional Scope needed for Outreach and then to implement Bulbouts and enhanced work in the Caltrans ROW Include:
6. Outreach – see attached scope of work from DGA. BKF has allocated 10 hours to support these efforts.
7. Bulbouts - the Cultivate Downtown St Helena campaign included bulbouts. In order to implement the bulbout concepts, the following work is needed:
a. Bulbouts design – demolition, grading, drainage, landscaping, and accessibility design for 2 unsignalized intersections and 2 signalized intersections. b. Traffic signal modifications – we have assumed that there will be minor work (push button poles) along the western edge of Main Street between Pope and Mitchell (as there are driveways along the eastern edge that limit access and the potential for bulbouts) and that, at the intersection of Adams Street, the entire traffic signal will need to upgraded to install bulbouts. c. Caltrans encroachment permit – we have included time to support filing the Caltrans encroachment permit for the bulbouts and traffic signal modification. We have assumed that with only one traffic signal modification, that the process will not trigger the DEER process with Caltrans.
LEVEL OF EFFORT
Below is a matrix indicating the fee based on the anticipated level of effort fee for each task:

CEQA
Determination:
Class I Categorical Exemption under Section 15301 of CEQA Prepared By: Mario Traverso, Public Works Assistant Engineer Reviewed By: Joseph Leach, Public Works Director and City Engineer Approved By: Anil Comelo, City Manager
BACKGROUND
As public works continues to move forward with the Streets Capital Improvement Projects, staff is requesting various authorizations and adjustments in efforts to deliver projects efficiently and expeditiously. These authorizations and adjustments are necessary to reapportion funding sources to account for various cost savings, updated cost estimates, overlaps and oversights in project scopes, and necessary emergency work requests to promotion of efficient utilization of City resources and construction contracts.
Agenda Item #9.8.
DISCUSSION
City staff request the City Council to consider the following proposals:
Authorize expenditure and budget adjustment for R21-04 Pope Street Crosswalk Improvements
Project R21-04 is part of the current 5-year CIP and FY22/23 CIP budget. The scope of project R21-04 includes the replacement of the curb ramps at Pope Street and College Avenue, installation of RRFBs and updated striping. A significant portion of the scope of R21-04 is also included in the scope of the R22-79 Pavement Restoration project (overlap in project scope). City staff is self performing the construction management for a cost savings when compared to the current budget. Further, significant cost savings is realized by utilizing the current construction contract for project R22-79 to complete the remaining scope of project R21-04. These cost savings will allow $129,405 of Measure T funds to be reallocated to pavement restoration projects. Staff requests City Council to authorize project R21-04, adjust the budget for R21-04, and increase the budget for R22-79 accordingly.

City staff requests authorization to solicit a proposal to complete this work as a change order to the existing R22-79 construction contract with Argonaut Constructors. All construction items in the scope of R21-04 are similar bid items provided through the competitive bidding process during the R22-79 Pavement Restoration project. City staff is self performing the construction management for a cost savings when compared to the current budget. Further, significant cost savings is realized by utilizing the current construction contract for project R22-79 to include project R21-02. These cost savings will allow $144,260 of Measure T funds to be reallocated to pavement restoration projects. Staff requests City Council to authorize Agenda Item #9.8.

Additionally, the current budget provides for a complete and fully funded FY23/24 pavement restoration project. Staff is requesting a budget transfer to recombine the funding to reflect the current project and expenditures. This project is funded by Measure T and the funds are available.

Include Grayson Avenue and Pratt Avenue in the current 5 Year Pavement Management Plan to be eligible for Measure T and SB1 (Gas Tax) apportionments.
The current 5 Year Pavement Management Plan, adopted in early 2021, prescribes the specific streets which are eligible to receive Measure T and Gas Tax (SB1) funding. The 5 Year Pavement Management Plan is revised on a biennial basis in conjunction with the City's participation with the Pavement Technical Assistance Program (PTAP). The City will be participating in PTAP in the summer of 2023, during which a new 5 Year Pavement Management Plan will be prepared and presented for approval in the fall of 2023.
Agenda Item #9.8.
R19-05 Grayson and South Crane Rehab project is a CIP project that has been in development since 2019 and is part of the current 5 year CIP and the FY23/24 budget.
South Crane Avenue is currently listed in the 5 Year Pavement Management Plan, Grayson Avenue is not. The design for the Grayson Avenue portion of the project is shovel ready. Staff intends to include the Grayson Avenue portion as an addition to the scheduled FY23/24 Pavement Restoration Project which is anticipated to go into construction in the summer of 2023. Staff request City Council approve the inclusion of Grayson Avenue to the current 5 Year Pavement Management Plan to be made eligible for Measure T and SB1 funding. Additionally, staff request that Pratt Avenue be included in the current 5 Year Pavement Management Plan to continue to secure opportunities to continue rehabilitation efforts. These projects are funded by Measure T, the funds are available.
Authorize the St. Helena Active Transportation and Safe Routes to Schools Plan to be reported as a project in CalSmart to be made eligible for Gas Tax (SB1) and Measure T expenditure.
In 2020, the City commissioned GHD Engineers to prepare an Active Transportation and Safe Routes to School Plan. The plan provides a 15 item work plan detailing various safety improvements along the Spring Street and Madrona Avenue corridors within the City. These improvements, resulting from traffic engineering analysis, recommendations from Napa County Bike Coalition and community feedback, include installation of high visibility crosswalk striping, ADA accessible curb ramps and crossing warning devices such as RRFBs. The report was presented to the Active Transportation and Sustainability Committee on November 3, 2021. Staff was provided a copy of this work plan in August 2022, and incorporated the 4 high priority items into the scope of the R22-79 Pavement Restoration Year 2 project. Staff intends on incorporating the remaining 11 work plan items into the scope of the FY23/24 pavement restoration project.

Agenda Section: CONSENT ITEMS
Subject: Consideration and Proposed Adoption of a Resolution Adopting a list of Projects for Fiscal Year 2023-24 funded by SB1: The Road Repair and Accountability Act of 2017.
CEQA
Determination:
Exempt from the requirements of CEQA pursuant to Section 15301, Class 1, which exempts the operation, leasing, or minor alteration of existing facilities
Prepared By: Mario Traverso, Public Works Assistant Engineer Reviewed By: April Mitts, Assistant City Manager
Approved By: Anil Comelo, City Manager
BACKGROUND
On April 28, 2017, the Governor signed Senate Bill (SB) 1, the Road Repair and Accountability Act of 2017. SB 1 increases per gallon fuel excise taxes; increases diesel fuel sales taxes and vehicle registration fees; and provides for inflationary adjustments to tax rates in future years. A percentage of the Road Maintenance and Rehabilitation Account (RMRA) account funding is apportioned by formula to eligible cities and counties pursuant to Streets and Highways Code Section 2032(h) for basic road maintenance, rehabilitation, and critical safety projects on the local streets and roads system.
Prior to receiving an apportionment of RMRA funds in FY 2023-24, the City is required to submit to the California Transportation Commission a list of projects proposed to be funded in FY 2023-24 by July 1, 2023. The list of projects proposed to be funded with these funds shall include:
• A description of the project;
• The location of each proposed project;
• A proposed schedule for the project’s completion; and • The estimated useful life of the improvement.
Agenda Item #
DISCUSSION
The City must adopt by resolution a list of projects proposed to receive fiscal year funding from the RMRA. This is the fourth year in which the City is receiving SB 1 funding and will enable the City to continue essential road maintenance and rehabilitation projects, safety improvements, repairing and replacing aging bridges, and increasing access and mobility options for the traveling public that would not have otherwise been possible without SB
1. The City is recommending continuing the Downtown Sidewalk and Pedestrian Project and adding the Napa Valley Vine Trail: Gap Closure Yountville to St. Helena Project and the Rectangular Rapid Flash Beacon (RRFB) for Pratt and Elmhurst Intersection Improvements to the FY 2023-24 project list.
The recommended action to adopt the project list will ensure the City continues to receive SB 1 revenues. It is anticipated that the City will receive approximately $125,000 during FY 2023-24. The SB 1 funds do carryover from year to year and any unused funds can be spent on other City funded projects in accordance with local needs and priorities so long as the projects are consistent with SB 1 and adopted by City Council.
Staff recommends that City Council approve the SB 1 street project list for FY 2023-24 in order to meet the July 1, 2023 deadline.
FISCAL IMPACT
SB 1 requires the City to provide an annual general fund Maintenance of Effort (MOE) in the amount of $314,571. However, the MOE specific expenditures do not need to be reflected in the approved project list. The proposed FY 2023-24 Capital Improvements Plan Budget and proposed FY 2023-24 Operations Budget will include a total of $379,189 in General Funds for City Streets to meet the MOE requirement of both SB 1 and Measure T funding. There is no additional fiscal impact with the adoption of the resolution approving the RMRA Project List for FY 2023-24.
RECOMMENDED ACTION
Adopt a resolution adopting a list of projects for fiscal year 2023-24 funded by SB1: The Road Repair and Accountability Act of 2017.

BACKGROUND
The purpose of a Water and Wastewater Rate Study ("rate study") is to determine the level of funding required over the next five years to ensure that each utility is meeting financial obligations for ongoing operations and maintenance, debt service, and capital improvements while maintaining prudent reserves. Updating the water and wastewater rates to keep up with the rising costs of providing safe and high-quality drinking water and wastewater services is a key component of maintaining the financial viability of the utilities, including maintaining healthy fund balances/reserves for emergencies and applicable bond covenants, debt coverage ratios for bond covenants, and strong credit ratings. Updates to the rate study are also necessary to fund investments in infrastructure maintenance and improvements which are mandated or otherwise necessary for safe and efficient operation of the utilities.
California's Proposition 218 requires that rates be equitably apportioned and proportional to the cost of providing services. The rate study conducts a cost-of-service analysis, which evaluates the cost of providing water and wastewater and allocates those costs to rate structure components to ensure the proposed rates are aligned with the costs to provide service and that all customer classes are subject to the equitable cost recovery whether they are located inside or outside of City limits.
On March 25, 2022, the City Council approved a resolution authorizing the City Manager to execute a Professional Services Agreement with Raftelis Financial Consultants to provide services associated with a Water and Wastewater Rate Study based on their experience as one of the largest firms in California, and the country, specializing in financial, rate, and management consulting for water, wastewater, and stormwater utilities. In addition, Raftelis has assisted numerous agencies in California implementing conservation-based rate structures, with special consideration for climate variation, cyclical drought conditions, and long-term passive conservation.
The City's key objective of the current rate study is to minimize the growth of the rates while ensuring that sufficient funds are generated to provide for a stable and wellfunctioning water and wastewater system. To ensure that this objective is achieved, the City engaged a Water and Wastewater Rate Study Advisory Committee to collaborate in the following:
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, and estimated cost) and the proper balance of using cash versus debt.
Agenda Item #
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. 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.
The Water & Wastewater Rate Study Advisory Committee participated in a total of eleven meetings to review materials related to the rate study and make recommendations to City Council regarding key components of the study.
In collaboration with the appointed members of the Water and Wastewater Advisory committee, Raftelis presented several recommendations pertaining to the Financial Plan, Cost of Service Analysis, and Rate Design to City Council on March 14, 2023, included here: March 14, 2023 Presentation of Water and Wastewater Rate Study Recommendations. City Council approved the recommendations, which are included in the Water and Wastewater Rate Study Final Report.
On May 9, 2023, the City Council accepted the Final Rate Study report and authorized staff to begin the Proposition 218 noticing.
Proposition 218 requires that notices be mailed to property owners at least 45 days before the scheduled public hearing. Notice to tenants are not required by law. The City mailed Proposition 218 notices to both affected property owners and tenants 46 days prior to the public hearing. In order to ensure a transparent and inclusive process, the City out notices in English and Spanish to all properties and exceeded the legal notice required by Proposition 218 by sending to tenants as well.
The City cannot impose the new rates if 50% plus one unique parcel protests are submitted to, and validated by, the City Clerk. Immediately after the close of the public hearing, the City Clerk will determine if a majority protest exists and report the results to the City Council. Any property owner or tenant may protest the rates, however only one protest per parcel may be counted. The City has 2,471 unique parcels with water accounts and 1,757 unique parcels with wastewater (sewer) accounts. If the City receives 1,237 letters of protest for water the 50% plus one threshold will be met and if the City receives 880 letters of protest for wastewater the 50% plus one threshold will be met.
DISCUSSION
Water Rate Study
Raftelis developed a water rate model to project financial calculations over the next ten fiscal years with projections shown in the Final Report through the five-year rate-setting period of FY 2027-28. This included inflationary assumptions, water connection growth projections, and projected water sales. In addition, a Water Enterprise Capital Improvement Plan was developed identifying $35.86 million in water improvement Agenda Item #
projects to be rate funded with future cash and revenue bond proceeds, which is shown in Table 4-14: Water Capital Improvement Plan (page 43) in the Final Report. The proposed capital project funding is as follows:

A cost-of-service analysis was conducted by Raftelis to allocate the revenue requirements to the different customer classes. In addition, Raftelis worked closely with City staff, the Water and Wastewater Rate Study Advisory Committee, and the City Council to evaluate potential changes to the existing rate structure, which included variable rate tiers and tier allotments. The proposed three-tier structure is defined by water source of supply from low cost to high-cost water. The sources in order of tiers are:
Tier 1: Bell Canyon Surface Water
Tier 2: Stonebridge Wells Groundwater
Tier 3: Purchased Water from the City of Napa
The allotment in each tier represents the average available volume of water, per connection (or residential dwelling unit where master-metered), in normal supply conditions and are proposed as follows:
Tier 1 0 - 11 HCF*
Tier 2 12 - 15 HCF*
Tier 3 16+ HCF*
* One Hundred Cubic Feet (HCF) = 748.05 gallons

Below shows Single Family Residential estimated bill impacts for FY 2024 based on a 5/8" meter:
Agenda Item #
The new water rates will be effective September 1, 2023. The revenue generated from the rate increase will allow the City to generate sufficient revenue to meet bond covenants, rebuild reserve levels, fund critical capital improvements, and to fully water operations without using other city funds. Without the rate increase the City would be unable to fund the critical capital improvement projects outlined in the rate study.
Drought Rates
Water Shortage Surcharges Water shortage rates are designed to recover net revenue shortfalls during periods of reduced water sales due to mandatory water conservation.
Raftelis analyzed the potential loss in revenue that would be incurred based on projected water use reduction in response to water restrictions during drought periods.
The following chart shows the proposed five-year schedule of the Water Shortage Surcharges for FY 2024 through FY 2028.

Wastewater Rate Study
Raftelis developed a water rate model to project financial calculations over the next ten fiscal years with projections shown in the Final Report through the five-year rate-setting period of FY 2027-28. This included inflationary assumptions and wastewater connection growth projections. In addition, a Wastewater Enterprise Capital Improvement Plan was developed identifying $16.30 million in water improvement projects to be rate funded with future cash and revenue bond proceeds, which is shown in Table 5-11: Wastewater Capital Improvement Plan (page 100) in the Final Report.

Below shows Single Family Residential estimated bill impacts for FY 2024:
The new wastewater rates will be effective September 1, 2023. The revenue generated from the rate increase will allow the City to generate sufficient revenue to meet bond covenants, rebuild reserve levels, fund critical capital improvements, and to fully fund wastewater operations without using other city funds. Without the rate increase the wastewater fund is projected to have a negative fund balance within the next fiscal year.
Agenda Item #
This means that the City's General Fund would need to contribute funding to the wastewater enterprise fund in order to operate and maintain the wastewater system.
FISCAL IMPACT
There is no Fiscal Year 2022-23 impact associated with this report.

Subject: Water and Wastewater Cost of Service and Rate Design Study Dear Ms. Kellogg,
Raftelis is pleased to provide this Water and Wastewater Cost of Service and Rate Design Study Report to the City of St. Helena. The purpose of the study was to develop a proposed five-year schedule of water and wastewater rates for Fiscal Year (FY) 2023-24 through FY 2027-28 that are cost-justified, consider the community’s values, based on industry standard rate setting frameworks, and align with the substantive requirements of California’s Proposition 218.
The primary objectives of the study included:
» Development of a ten-year financial plan for the City’s Water and Wastewater Enterprises to ensure financial sufficiency, meet operating costs, fund long-term capital needs, and maintain prudent reserves » Conduct water and wastewater cost of service analyses to ensure a nexus between proposed rates and the cost to provide services to customers
» Design drought surcharge rates for times of declared water shortages » Develop five years of water and wastewater rates for adoption This report details results and recommendations related to the development of the proposed financial plans, cost of service analyses, and proposed rate calculations. It has been a pleasure working with you and we thank you, City staff, the Rate Study Advisory Committee, City Council, and members of the community for the support provided to Raftelis during this study.
Sincerely,
Kevin Kostiuk
Senior Manager
