St. Helena, CA 94574
Dear Members of the St. Helena City Council,
I hope this letter finds you in good health. I am writing to address an issue that has significantly impacted the quality of life for my family and me. We have been residents of this community for the past 50 years, and during this time, our old farmhouse has been a cherished place to call home. Our property has provided us with the tranquility and space to enjoy outdoor dinners and entertain guests throughout the years.
However, for the past few days, our peaceful existence has been disrupted due to the installation of noisy rumble strips in our vicinity. These strips have introduced a level of noise that is not only a source of discomfort but also interferes with our ability to enjoy the simple pleasures of outdoor dining and entertaining. The noise generated from the rumble strips can be heard while we are in our house with the TV on. This has taken away from the charm and serenity that has defined our community for decades.
As long-standing residents, we value the sense of community that we have been a part of for so many years. We believe that a balance can be struck between necessary safety measures and the preservation of our peaceful way of life. Therefore, I kindly request that the City Council consider implementing noise reduction measures for the rumble strips in our area. This could include exploring quieter materials, adjusting the timing of maintenance activities, or any other solutions that would mitigate the noise disruption.
We understand the importance of safety and maintenance, but we also hope that these considerations will include the wellbeing and quality of life for residents who have dedicated many years to this community. Our ability to continue to enjoy our outdoor space, especially as we host family gatherings and entertain, is of great significance to us. I kindly request your understanding and support in addressing this issue and finding a solution that allows us to regain the peace and quiet we have cherished for so long. Your commitment to the wellbeing of the community is deeply appreciated, and we look forward to a resolution that enhances our quality of life. Thank you for your attention to this matter.
Sincerely,
Sarah Bertoli

FROM: Mandy Kellogg, Administrative Services Director
SUBJECT: Fiscal Year 2023-24 First Quarter Finance Report.
RECOMMENDED
ACTION:
Receive and file.
PREVIOUS COUNCIL
ACTION:
None.
STATEMENT OF THE
PURPOSE:
The purpose is to report first quarter FY 2023-24 financial activities.
FINANCIAL IMPACT: None.
BACKGROUND:
Municipal Code Title 2, §2.24.030 states the Director of Finance shall deliver to the City Manager and to the Council at a regularly scheduled Council meeting a budget report showing the budget status at the end of the preceding quarter.
Staff has prepared the following for Council:
1. First quarter (Q1) staff report for Fiscal Year (FY) 2023-24. This report is a summary of transactions from July 1, 2023 through September 30, 2023.
2. A summary of St. Helena CARES Low Income Subsidy and Water Leak adjustments for Q1 FY 2023-24.
3. FY 2023-24 Q1 list of checks over $50,000 (Attachment 1)
4. FY 2023-24 Q1 balance of all funds (Attachment 2)
DISCUSSION:
Information presented below reflects transactions posted through September 30, 2023.
Additional details for the General Fund, Water Fund, and Wastewater Fund are provided as Attachments 3-8.
General Fund
General Fund revenue received to date for FY 2023-24 is $2,194,352 – 12% of General Fund revenue has been collected. General Fund revenue is divided into the following categories:
1. Property Tax
2. Sales Tax
3. Transient Occupancy Tax (TOT)
4. Other Taxes
5. Charges for Service
Agenda Item #10.2.
6. Fines and Forfeits
7. Licenses and Permits
8. Development Fees
9. Intergovernmental
10.Interest and Rents, and
11.Miscellaneous.
The primary contributors to General Fund revenues are Property Tax, Sales Tax, and TOT. While the 12% collected for FY 2023-24 may seem low, this figure is normal due to timing of property tax and sales tax payments. Attachment 3 provides details on each of the revenue categories.
General Fund expenditures are $4,605,710 for Q1 which is 29.7% of the adopted budget. Spending for FY 2023-24 is slightly higher than projected. This is primarily due to CalPERS Unfunded Liability payments made in Q1 and transfers to other funds for equipment replacement, streets capital improvement projects, and Measure T Class I trails contribution requirements. The low attorney costs are due to the timing of invoices.
Attachment 4 provides a summary of expenditures by Department for FY 2023-24 Q1.
Water Enterprise Funds
Water Enterprise revenue billed to date is $2,142,801 or 24.3% of the estimated total revenues for FY 2023-24 through September 30, 2023. Revenues are on target compared to the projected budget. The negative amount recorded in 561-3870-0000 CARES Subsidy is due to the 1st Quarter subsidy amount yet to be transferred from the General Fund.
Water expenditures are $1,649,419 for Q1 FY 2023-24. Overall Water Fund spending is at 20.7% for the Fiscal Year and is on target. The low attorney costs are due to the timing of invoices. Attachment 6 provides a summary of spending by Department for FY 2023-24 Q1.
Wastewater Enterprise
Funds Wastewater Enterprise revenue billed to date is $1,107,891 or 23% of the estimated total revenues for FY 2023-24. Revenues are on target compared to the projected budget. The previous FY 2022-23 Q1 revenues were at 17% for the same time period. Attachment 7 provides details for Wastewater Fund revenues. The negative amount recorded in 571-3870-0000 CARES Subsidy is due to the 1st Quarter subsidy amount yet to be transferred from the General Fund.
Wastewater expenses are $571,155 for Q1 FY 2023-24. Overall Wastewater Fund spending is at 11.1% for the Fiscal Year and is on target. The low non-departmental and attorney costs are due to the timing of invoices. Attachment 8 provides a summary of spending by Department for FY 2023-24 Q1.
Agenda Item #10.2.
Water and Wastewater Funds - Aging Report
Revenues for both the water and wastewater systems are recognized as soon as they are earned as opposed to when they are collected. Therefore, when the bi-monthly utility bill is processed the revenues are recorded in the financial software system.
At the start of the pandemic, City Council approved Resolution 2020-24 which waived all penalties and interest on amounts due for utility service and ceased termination of water service for delinquent bills for the duration of the local emergency and for 30 days following the City Council's termination of the emergency. In addition, several customers filed appeals for penalties assessed related to overuse of water during the Phase II Water Emergency. This resulted in a significant increase in past due amounts from Fiscal Year 2020-21 to Fiscal Year 2021-22.
City Council terminated the local emergency in May 2023 and began reassessing past due fees in June 2023. As a result, staff has seen a decline in the past amounts from the prior fiscal year. Table 1 provides a summary of the past due amounts compared to the same time the previous year.
Table 1
Period 30 - 60 Days 60 - 90 Days 90 - 120 Days Over 120 Days 09/30/2021 $27,561 $1,186,814 $229,684 $296,787

09/30/2023 $32,432 $79,453 $85,072 $1,249,610
All Funds
Attachment 2 provides a summary of the balance of all funds.
St. Helena CARES Low Income Subsidy
The St. Helena CARES subsidy program currently has 117 participants. The subsidy for FY 2023-24 Q1 is $17,783.97. Funds for the St. Helena CARES Low Income Subsidy program are included in the adopted FY 2023-24 budget.

The leak subsidy for Q1 FY 2023-24 totals $1,507.08 which represents four leak adjustments, which included two irrigation leaks and two broken pipes. Funds for the Leak Adjustment Subsidy program are included in the adopted FY 2023-24 budget.

Agenda Report to the City Council
Agenda Section: CONSENT ITEMS
Department: Administration
DATE: October 24, 2023
FROM: Cindy Tzafopoulos, City Clerk
SUBJECT: Consideration and proposed approval of a resolution declaring Laserfiche as a Trusted System for the
management and retention of records
RECOMMENDED
ACTION:
It is recommended by the City Clerk’s Office that the
Council, by resolution, declare Laserfiche as a Trusted System for the management of official City records and the automation of record retention requirements.
PREVIOUS COUNCIL
ACTION:
STATEMENT OF THE
PURPOSE:
Declare Laserfiche as a Trusted System to store and
maintain records as electronic digital copies instead of physical hardcopy files.
FINANCIAL IMPACT: No fiscal impact.
BACKGROUND:
In the last eight months the City Council and staff has taken steps towards being able to declare Laserfiche as a Trusted System. The first action was to migrate all Laserfiche stored City records from the City's server to the cloud, the Council approved an updated retention schedule and lastly approved a Records Retention and Disposition of Information Policy. With these efforts in place the City is ready to declare Laserfiche as a Trusted System to store and maintain records as electronic digital copies instead of physical hardcopy files.
What is a Trusted System and how will the City benefit:
Designating a Trusted System - The California Public Records Act defines records as “any writing containing information relating to the conduct of the public's business prepared, owned, used, or retained by any state or local agency regardless of physical form or characteristics.” While many records today are received in electronic format, the City has many records in paper format.
State laws and regulations have been enacted to allow government agencies to convert paper records to electronic formats. Storing records electronically is a cost-saving measure, reducing the need for onsite and reducing offsite storage and management of voluminous paper records, and allows the City to provide easier and quicker access to records.
Agenda Item #10.3.
In order to retain records electronically and dispose of the paper version, the legislative body of an agency must declare a “Trusted System.” Under California law (Government Code section 12168.7), “a ‘trusted system’ means a combination of technologies, policies, and procedures for which there is no plausible scenario in which a public record retrieved from or reproduced by the system could differ substantially from the public record that is originally stored.”
Additionally, the Secretary of State has adopted Trustworthy Electronic Document or Record Preservation regulations (Chapter 15, Division 7, Title 2 of the California Code of Regulations), which govern the recording, storing, and reproducing of records in electronic media where the intent is to destroy the original hardcopy and maintain the electronic copy as the official Record.
DISCUSSION:
The City Clerk’s Office has worked with City departments and the City’s Laserfiche consultants (ECS Imaging, Inc.) to ensure the City's enterprise content management system, Laserfiche, and the records stored within the system, are kept in accordance with the State's Trusted System requirements and the Trustworthy Electronic Document and/or Record Preservation regulations. An Enterprise Content Management (ECM) system enables organizations to securely manage content and information throughout its lifecycle. It enables unstructured information — such as Word documents, PDFs, emails and scanned images — to be securely stored and made accessible to authorized users. The public also has searchable links located on the City Clerk's web page at https://www.cityofsthelena.org/cityclerk. The public is able to search through a plethora of records at their leisure.
Laserfiche provides automated back ups see Attachment 6. Laserfiche Cloud customer data is backed up multiple times per day. Backups are retained for defined periods with support for point in time recovery. All backup data is encrypted. Backup data is replicated and stored in geographically separate data centers. Backup and restoration is tested on at least a quarterly basis.
Laserfiche has audit capabilities to track records as they are added, deleted, and viewed in the system. Permissions and restrictions for security have been established in Laserfiche along with roles and responsibilities to ensure only appropriate personnel have access to records.
Records Management Procedures, included as Attachment 4 and 5, have been developed for the standardization of organizing records and the application of the retention requirements from the Retention Schedule Attachment 3 and to provide for the routine searching, scanning, uploading, saving, importing, and disposing of records in Laserfiche during the normal course of business.
Collectively, the City's comprehensive Records Retention and Disposition of Information Policy, Records Retention Schedule, the Laserfiche Records Management Procedures, Agenda Item #10.3.
and the Laserfiche technology constitute a Trusted System in accordance with state law.
Staff recommends adopting a resolution to declare Laserfiche as a “Trusted System” and the repositories for the management of City records and the automation of retention requirements, allowing staff to convert paper records for storage electronically. The process of converting existing paper records to an electronic format will be a long-term, ongoing process.
Permanent records per the retention schedule will be kept in its original state and not disposed of. The records will be maintained by their respective department or stored in an offsite storage facility.

b) The Laserfiche Administrator searches for relevant Records, suspends their destruction date and annotates the Records to indicate that they are on Legal Hold. c) The Laserfiche Administrator prepares a Records Notification containing a list of Records eligible for deletion because they have passed retention requirements. The notification specifies the date on which deletion of these Records is scheduled to occur. d) The Laserfiche Administrator sends the Records Notification to departments regarding the required deletion of obsolete electronic Records in Laserfiche. Included in the notification is a link to the Retention Schedule and who to contact with questions. The Records Notification includes the following:
Record categories that shall not be deleted due to their relevance in a legal action. The list of Records eligible for deletion according to the City’s Retention Schedule. The date on which the obsolete Records will be deleted. The deadline for a department to contact the City Clerk to prevent the deletion of the obsolete Records.
e) Departments shall notify the City Clerk’s Office by the deadline on the Records Notification if any of the Records eligible to be deleted should be exempted from deletion and shall provide a written justification for that exemption. In addition, departments shall notify the City Clerk if any of the documents on the list should be considered for continued retention due to ongoing historical value.
f) The City Clerk sends the final list of Records eligible for deletion to the City Attorney to confirm there is no legal reason for continuing to retain these Records. g) The City Attorney reviews and approves the deletion of the eligible Records and send their approval to the City Clerk.

Agenda Report to the City Council
Agenda Section: CONSENT ITEMS
Department: Public Works
DATE: October 24, 2023
FROM: Ian Dale, Environmental Services Tech
SUBJECT: September 2023 Review and Forecasting of City Water Supply Availability
RECOMMENDED
ACTION:
Receive and File.
PREVIOUS COUNCIL
ACTION:
Monthly Receive and File reports to City Council.
STATEMENT OF THE
PURPOSE:
To provide monthly updates of 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.
FINANCIAL IMPACT: None
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 yearto-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 May 9, 2023, the City Council adopted Resolution 2023- 46 adopting City Council goals for FY 2023-24. Five new City Council Goals for FY 2023-24 which include Goal 1: Financial Sustainability, Goal 2: Infrastructure and Environmental Sustainability, Goal 3: Water Security, Goal 4: Community Information and Engagement, and Goal 5: Quality of Life. City Council has the responsibility of establishing broad goals and the City's leadership has the responsibility to develop a work plan to achieve them.
DISCUSSION:
In connection with City Council Goal 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 September 2023. The water produced for September 2023 is down by -28% when compared to September 2022 and is down - 28% compared to the average of September 2018-2020. Below is a chart summarizing the water produced per source:

The City is no longer in water emergency conditions based upon the Phase I Water Emergency measures being terminated by City Council adopting Resolution No. 2023- 94 on July 25, 2023. Bell Canyon Reservoir has adequate water to support the City's needs through this calendar year. 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 October 1, 2023, Bell Canyon Reservoir elevation was at 417.75 feet representing approximately 2,066.04 acre feet (AF) and 86.67% 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 October 1st in 2021, 2022, and 2023.
Year 2021 2022 2023

Acre Feet 682.9 AF 1,589 AF 2,066.04 AF
Percent Capacity 28.65% 66.67% 86.67%
As a follow up to the May 24, 2022, 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 declare Phase I and Phase II Water Emergencies in 2020.
Continued Water Conservation
California experienced two consecutive dry years 2020 and 2021. Due to the combination of warmer-than-average temperatures and 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 2022, required DWR to reduce anticipated deliveries from the State Water Project (SWP). However, the reduction at the time did not affect St. Helena as the City has multiple robust water sources not Agenda Item #10.4.
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.
It should be noted that on July 25, 2023, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 2023- 94 to formally end the Phase I Water Emergency. The projected demand on the system versus the anticipated rainfall over the next year reflects an available supply in Bell Canyon approximately 1,895 acre-feet, significantly above the 1,481 acre-feet standard for declaration of a Phase I Water Emergency. Staff will monitor State-wide and local drought conditions, weather conditions, and provide updates on a monthly basis. The corresponding staff report provided a variety of data to reflect the disposition of the water supply at that time in relation to the Council-adopted Safe Yield Policy.
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 September 2023, Rutherford Pump Station was producing an average of .54 MG/day for a total of
49.75 acre feet (AF) for the month.

PREVIOUS COUNCIL
ACTION:
On August 22, 2023, the City Council adopted Resolution 2023-106 ratifying a public emergency due to the presence of brown, discolored water from areas fed by the City’s Bell Canyon Water Treatment Plant. The intent of the
declaration was to provide a mechanism under the Public Contract Code Section 1102 to expedite repair or
replacement of necessary infrastructure to remediate the situation. This action allows the city to proceed with
awarding Public Works contracts to perform emergency
work outside of typical procurement regulations.
On September 26, 2023 the City Council authorized
$1,225,458 in funds for expenditures for various contracts including tank relining, pump replacement equipment, filter assessment and design and construction management
services.
STATEMENT OF THE
PURPOSE:
Ratify the know expenditures and accept the update.
FINANCIAL IMPACT: The Fiscal Impact is $54,326 utilizing fund balance from the Water Operations Fund 561 and transferring the funds to the Water Capital Improvement Fund 764, leaving the
estimated Net Position in Fund 561 at 44%.
This action updates CIP Project W24-09 with a project
budget of $1,279,694 as attached.
Agenda Item #10.5.
BACKGROUND:
The City acknowledges the impact this emergency is having on residents and businesses and their quality of life and the need to expeditiously repair the necessary infrastructure.
Consistent with governing regulations, the Public Works Department has been soliciting proposals to perform investigation and remediation, identify the cause of the discoloration, determine whether the discoloration poses a safety issue to City water customers, and to take any necessary action to remediate the issue causing the water emergency.
Pursuant to Public Contract Code section 22050(b)3, the City Manager or their designee is required to report to the City Council regarding the status of the water emergency, efforts taken to remediate the emergency, and the need to continue the emergency action at every regularly scheduled meeting until the emergency action is terminated.
Additionally, under Municipal Code Section 3.04.290(b) the City Manager is authorized to enter into contracts to remediate the emergency but also must bring such contracts back to the City Council for ratification.
Current actions taken to remediate the water emergency:
Systematic Hydrant Flushing: Since early August, the Water Division has performed hydrant flushing. This has allowed them to focus on specific areas of the City, isolate issues, and work to mitigate problems. The team flushes hydrants regularly and is testing specific sections of the City at least three days a week to determine which areas may need additional flushing. The City continues to comply with both state and federal regulations when it comes to testing the water coming from the treatment plant and throughout the distribution system.
The City is contracting with four primary firms to help improve water quality in the short and long-term. Tasks include:
o Inspection of the filters at the treatment plant.
o Cleaning, surface preparation, and recoating the Clearwell and Tank 1A. o Replacing and/or cleaning and recoating the intake piping and pumps for the Clearwell.
Staff continue to engage specialty contractors to provide cleaning/inspection services for the pipeline between the Clearwell and Tank 1A. It is anticipated that the proposal for those services, as well as any other related expenditures, will be brought before the City Council for subsequent ratification.
