While these matters are pending and for 12 months after a decision has been made, a Council Member may not accept, solicit, or direct campaign contributions of more than $500 from parties/participants who have a financial interest in the proceedings, or their respective agents. In addition, a Council Member who has received such a contribution may be required to disclose the contribution and recuse themselves from consideration of an agenda item. This summary of the Levine Act does not constitute legal advice.

CODE, RELATED TO THE SALE OF NITROUS OXIDE WITHIN THE CITY Orange County has seen an increase in the recreational use and abuse of nitrous oxide, an odorless, colorless chemical that can be inhaled and is often colloquially known as “laughing gas,” “NOX,” or “whippits.” Nitrous oxide is legitimately used as a pain reliever and sedative for dental and medical procedures, as a performance enhancer for cars, and as a culinary ingredient. While it is unlawful to inhale nitrous oxide recreationally or provide nitrous oxide to another when a seller knows, or should know, that the buyer intends to inhale or ingest the substance recreationally, it is prevalent in smoke shops around Orange County as sellers use a “don’t ask, don’t tell” approach. To empower local law enforcement to take additional action against irresponsible nitrous oxide sellers, the City Council will consider adopting regulations prohibiting the sale of nitrous oxide, except when sold for legitimate uses permitted under State law.

The City currently regulates the sale, storage, and discharge of fireworks within the City, consistent with State Fireworks Law (Health & Safety Code § 12500 et seq.) and guidance from the State Fire Marshall under Chapter 17.04 of the Stanton Municipal Code. In order to allow law enforcement and City code enforcement to better enforce Chapter 17.04, the City desires to adopt “social host” regulations, which would make a property owner or a person in control of property on which fireworks are sold, stored, or discharged in violation of Chapter 17.04 strictly liable for the illegal sale, storage, or discharge. The proposed ordinance would also revise the City’s administrative citations regulations regarding notice requirements.

City regularly meets with developers and encourages use of density bonuses, particularly in Mixed-Use Overlay areas which are located along major corridors and accessible by mass transit, to entice dense housing developments. Unfortunately, the common response from developers during this reporting has been that the current construction costs make denser development infeasible, even with the density bonuses and concessions. 9: Redevelopment of

Pursuant to the Surplus Land Act, the City released a notice of availability. Out of that process, the City entered into an exclusive negotiating agreement (ENA) with the hope of coming to an agreement that would allow the transfer of property and eventual development of an affordable housing project. Unfortunately, the ENA was subject to litigation throughout this reporting period. The negotiation process was never completed, and no affordable project has materialized at the property. Moreover, the ENA expired during this reporting cycle. The next reporting period will reflect that, in April 2025, HCD provided the City with a letter that “all requirements under the SLA for the purposes of disposing of the [City-owned Tina Pacific] surplus land have been met.” The City intends to record an affordability covenant against the properties pursuant to the SLA.

tracts with the highest concentrations of LMI
households; identify and secure additoinal
funding sources
Annual allocation of CDBG
funds
The City previously attempted to develop an internal housing rehabilitation program, but quickly determined that staffing levels and experience could not support a successful program. The City then sought partnership for third part implementation of this program. In 2023, City initiated discussions with Habitat for Humanity to serve as the program administrator to qualify residents for the program and complete needed repairs.

Unfortnately, various imediments prevented the implementation of this program. The City currently differes CDBG funding to the Orange County Housing Authority to assist with housing projects for the time being.

Out of that process, the City entered into an exclusive negotiating agreement (ENA) with the hope of coming to an agreement that would allow the transfer of property and eventual development of an affordable housing project. Unfortunately, the ENA was subject to litigation throughout this reporting period. The negotiation process was never completed, and no affordable project has materialized at the property. Moreover, the ENA expired during this reporting cycle. The next reporting period will reflect that, in April 2025, HCD provided the City with a letter that “all requirements under the SLA for the purposes of disposing of the [City-owned Tina Pacific] surplus land have been met.” The City intends to record an affordability covenant against the properties pursuant to the SLA.

Click here to return to the agenda.

BACKGROUND:

On April 8, 2025, the City Council approved the County of Orange Families and Communities Together (FaCT) grant awarded to the City of Stanton for Fiscal Years 2025-2028. The FaCT grant provides an annual allocation of $500,000 to support services at the Stanton Family Resource Center (FRC), including Differential Response – Path One programming. FaCT supports a network of Family Resource Centers (FRCs) designed to strengthen vulnerable families and prevent child abuse and neglect. Through partnerships with trusted community-based nonprofits, the Stanton FRC provides a wide range of no-cost services including case management, parenting workshops, counseling, basic needs distribution, domestic violence support and referrals for housing, mental health, and employment assistance.

ANALYSIS/JUSTIFICATION:

In support of the new FaCT grant, the City proposes adding the new full-time job classification of Family Support Advocate to the Position Classification Manual to conduct recruitment for two incumbents in a timely manner. The goal is to onboard the two fulltime Family Support Advocates by July 1, 2025. Under general supervision, the Family Support Advocate’s primary purpose will be to coordinate interviews for referred clients, evaluate family needs and provide referrals to support programs. Adding and filling this new job classification furthermore ensures Stanton families receive comprehensive care.

The resolution amending the Position Classification can be found as Attachment 1. The adjustments to the Position Classification Manual can be found as Exhibit A. The job description for this new classification can be found as Exhibit B. The resolution amending the Salary and Benefits Resolution to include this new classification and associated salary range can be found as Attachment 2.

FISCAL IMPACT:

The annual cost for two full-time Family Support Advocates is $181,280. These two positions will be partially funded through the FaCT grant awarded to the City of Stanton for Fiscal Years 2025–2028 which provides an annual allocation of $500,000 to support services at the Stanton Family Resource Center (FRC), including Differential Response – Path One programming and the General Fund. The funds will be requested in the Fiscal Year 2025-26 Proposed Budget.

ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT:

This item is not subject to California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) pursuant to Section 15378(b)(2) – continuing administrative or maintenance activities, such as purchases for supplies, personnel-related actions, general policy or procedure making.

LEGAL REVIEW:

None.

PUBLIC NOTIFICATION:

Public notification provided through the regular agenda process.

STRATEGIC PLAN OBJECTIVE:

Obj. No. 6: Maintain and promote a responsive, high quality and transparent government.

SECTION 3: The City of Stanton will provide the following benefits:

I. RETIREMENT:

1. The City is a member of the California Public Employees Retirement System (CalPERS), pursuant to the California Public Employees Retirement Law (Cal.

Gov. Code § 30000 et seq.) (PERL), as amended by the Public Employees’ Pension Reform Act of 2013 (PEPRA) (Assembly Bill (AB) 340, Chapter 296, Statutes of 2012, and AB 197, Chapter 297, Statutes of 2012). The City shall provide a tax-qualified governmental defined benefit plan for all full-time miscellaneous class of employees through CalPERS, in accordance with the following provisions:
a. Employees who are CalPERS members are subject to provisions of PERL, as amended by PEPRA. PEPRA imposes requirements and limitations on public employment retirement benefits for public employees, including establishment of a category of employees defined in PEPRA as “new members”. Employees who were hired prior to January 1, 2013, or who otherwise do not fall within the definition of a “new member” under PEPRA, are referred to in this Resolution as a “classic member” under PEPRA. b. Employees hired on or before August 27, 2011, are described as “classic members” (Tier 1). Classic members’ (Tier 1) retirement benefits are based on the two percent at fifty-five (2% at 55) formula. The City shall pay the seven percent (7%) member contribution of their pensionable income to CalPERS as part of the required member retirement contribution. c. Employees hired on or after August 28, 2011, are also described as “classic members” (2nd Tier). Classic members’ (2nd Tier) retirement benefits are based on the two percent at sixty (2% at 60) formula. Tier 2 employees shall pay seven percent (7%) of their pensionable income to CalPERS as part of the required member retirement contribution.
d. Employees hired after January 1, 2013, and who are new to CalPERS, or have had more than a six (6) month break in CalPERS service, are subject to all laws, statutes, rules, and regulations of the Public Employees’ Pension Reform Act of 2013 (PEPRA or 3rd Tier). The new member retirement benefit formula is two percent at sixty-two (2% at 62). All new members shall pay at least fifty percent (50%) of the normal cost of the retirement contribution rate, or the current contribution rate of similarly situated employees, whichever is higher, to CalPERS as part of the required member retirement contribution.
e. All full-time and part-time employees who are CalPERS members will be covered by the 1959 Survivor Benefit. A $.93 bi-weekly deduction is required. This benefit consists of a monthly allowance, which may be paid to the employee’s surviving spouse and children and is paid along with other death benefits and is payable whether or not the employee was eligible to retire at the time of death.

RESOLUTION NO. 2025-10

Page 6 of 18 ends

2. The City shall provide a retirement plan for all hourly part-time employees. Parttime employees are covered by the Public Agency Retirement Services Alternate Retirement System (PARS ARS). Employees contribute 7.5% salary contribution towards this program on a pre-tax basis. Upon separation from the City, hourly employees will receive one hundred percent (100%) of their contributions, plus any accrued interest.

II. INSURANCES:

1. The City shall pay the minimum required monthly contribution for medical insurance for active employees as required by the Public Employees’ Medical and Hospital Care Act (PEMHCA). To the extent required by the law, the City shall also contribute this amount for retirees.

2. The City shall pay the current Kaiser (OC) medical insurance premium for all eligible employees and two-thirds (2/3) of the additional Kaiser (OC) premium for eligible dependents. The individual employee shall pay the difference in the premium of the plan they choose, to be deducted from their salary. If a less expensive plan is selected by the employee, the employee shall receive the unused portion of the City’s contribution as a cash payment not to exceed one hundred dollars ($100.00) per month.

3. The City shall provide a medical insurance rebate program for full-time employees who are eligible for the City medical insurance program pursuant to Section II.2 above, and who are currently enrolled under a medical insurance program through a spouse or other source. Any employee for whom the City has approved waiver, the City shall compensate the employee in the amount of three hundred and fifty dollars ($350.00) per month with the exception of Department Heads. The City shall compensate the employees occupying these positions as follows:

Position Amount
Administrative Services Director $500
Assistant City Manager $500
City Manager $500
Community & Economic Development Director $500
Community Services Director $500
Finance Director $500
Public Works Director/City Engineer $500

4. The City shall contribute up to a maximum of twenty-three dollars and eight cents ($23.08) per pay period for each part-time employee, who has been employed by the City for at least one year, to be used at the employee’s discretion for designated dental and/or vision benefits. Such City contributions shall only be used for designated dental and/or vision benefits as determined by the City or a cash payment.

RESOLUTION NO. 2025-10

Page 7 of 18 ends

5. The City shall provide dental insurance for all eligible employees and their eligible dependents. This is provided by a carrier of the City’s choosing. The City shall pay the current Delta Dental (PPO) premium amount for eligible employees and twothirds (2/3) of the additional Delta Dental (PPO) premium for eligible dependents.

6. The City shall provide vision insurance for all eligible employees and their eligible dependents. This is provided by a carrier of the City’s choosing. The City shall pay the current vision insurance premium for eligible employees and two-thirds (2/3) of the premium for eligible dependents.

7. The City shall provide term life insurance to full-time employees as follows:

DATE: April 22, 2025
SUBJECT: ACCEPTANCE OF THE 8950 AND 8961 PACIFIC AVENUE

Residents and QMG have reported that the vacant 4-plexes at 8950 and 8961 Pacific Avenue have experienced trespassing by transients in the vacant 4-plex properties.

Residents have also notified City staff regarding concerns for their personal safety, fires, drug sales, and personal assault. Staff recommended the demolition of 8950 and 8961 Pacific Avenue to prevent trespassing and other unauthorized illegal activities that may threaten the public health, safety, and welfare of the Tina Pacific community.

The City’s Purchasing and Contracting Guidelines allow for exceptions to the standard procurement procedures when it is determined to be in the best interests of the City to preserve the public health, safety, and welfare of the community.

ANALYSIS/JUSTIFICATION:

The total construction cost for this project was $150,000, which is the awarded contract amount. No change orders were issued for this project.

The 8950 and 8961 Pacific Demolition and Abatement Project has been completed in conformance with the project plans and specifications and has been accepted by the City Engineer.

FISCAL IMPACT:

The total project amount to be paid to Integrated Demolition and Remediation, Inc. for construction is $150,000 utilizing funds available from the Housing Authority as approved in the Fiscal Year 2024/2025 Operating Budget.

ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT:

The project has been determined to be categorically exempt under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), Class 1, Section 15301l (3) as demolition and removal of individual small structures.

REPORT TO THE CITY COUNCIL
TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
DATE: April 22, 2025
SUBJECT: PUBLIC HEARING TO ADOPT THE MASTER FEE SCHEDULE FOR

CITY PROGRAMS AND SERVICES
REPORT IN BRIEF:

On January 14, 2025, the City Council approved Resolution No. 2025-04 which contained the current Master Fee Schedule which had been updated based on the findings of a comprehensive fee study. The Resolution included a provision to update the Master Fee Schedule annually, each July 1, beginning on July 1, 2025, to implement annual Consumer Price Index (CPI) based adjustments to all fees to ensure fees keep up with increasing costs. Resolution No. 2025-08 authorizes a 3.4% CPI increase effective July 1, 2025.

RECOMMENDED ACTION:

2. Open the public hearing and receive public input; and

3. Adopt Resolution No. 2025-08, entitled:
“A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF STANTON,

CALIFORNIA, ADOPTING AN UPDATED CITY OF STANTON MASTER
FEE SCHEDULE FOR CITY PROGRAMS AND SERVICES.”
BACKGROUND:

On January 14, 2025, the City Council approved a comprehensive user fee study and Resolution 2025-04 which includes the City’s Master Fee Schedule that was developed based on the findings of the study. It was recommended in the study to increase the fees in the City’s Master Fee Schedule by the percentage increase in the Consumer Item: 10A
Click here to return to the agenda.
2 Price Index ("CPI") for all urban consumers in the Los Angeles-Long Beach-Anaheim area as published by the United States Government Bureau of Labor Statistics for the month of December. The reported increase for December 2024 was 3.4%.

ANALYSIS/JUSTIFICATION:

As provided under State law, cities can collect user fees to recover some, or all costs incurred in providing a specific discretionary service from which one or more individuals obtain a benefit. A discretionary service is defined as a service where the customer is identifiable, and the service is measurable. Examples include building permits, encroachment permits, and building plan checks.

State law, including Propositions 26 and 218, sets parameters under which user fees can be established and administered by public agencies. User fees may not exceed the estimated reasonable cost of providing the service for which the fee is charged. As such, fees are set based upon studies that calculate the full cost of providing specific discretionary services, including direct, indirect, and support costs. A user fee study was conducted and subsequently approved by the City Council on January 14, 2025.

The proposed fees have been updated to reflect an increase in CPI of 3.4% (Exhibit A of Attachment A). All fees have been rounded down to the nearest dollar and increases less than a dollar or percentage point have not been applied.

FISCAL IMPACT:

The proposed fees represent the cost for services that are discretionary on the part of the user. As such, the fiscal impact will be based on activity levels after the new fees are adopted and implemented, effective July 1, 2025.

ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT:

This project is categorically exempt under the California Environmental Quality Act Section 15301, Class 1(c) as improvements to existing facilities.

LEGAL REVIEW:

The City Attorney reviewed the Resolution as to form.

STRATEGIC PLAN OBJECTIVE:

Obj. No. 4: Ensure fiscal stability and efficiency in governance. 3 PUBLIC NOTIFICATION:

Through the normal agenda notification process. In addition, on April 3, 2025, the Office of the City Clerk posted a public notice to notify the public that reports are available for public inspection. The notice was posted at the following locations: Stanton City Hall, Stanton Community Services Center (Family Resource Center), United States Post Office (Stanton), and online at www.StantonCA.gov (City of Stanton Website). The notice was also published in The Orange County Register on April 7, 2025, and April 14, 2025.

ORDINANCE NO. 1162

AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF STANTON, CALIFORNIA, ADDING CHAPTER 9.50 (NITROUS OXIDE AND INHALANTS) TO TITLE 9 (PEACE,

SAFETY, AND MORALS) OF THE STANTON MUNICIPAL CODE, RELATED TO THE

SALE OF NITROUS OXIDE WITHIN THE CITY
WHEREAS, the City of Stanton, California (“City”) is a municipal corporation, duly organized under the constitution and laws of the State of California, authorized under its police powers to make and enforce within its limits all local, police, sanitary, and other ordinances and regulations not in conflict with general laws; and WHEREAS, nitrous oxide is an odorless, colorless chemical that can be inhaled for legitimate purposes associated with medical or dental procedures in a clinical setting, and is legitimately used for industrial purposes and as a propellant for food products; and WHEREAS, nitrous oxide is also subject to recreational misuse and abuse, in part, because it is easy to purchase from retail vendors and relatively inexpensive; and WHEREAS, the recreational misuse and abuse of nitrous oxide can cause permanent vitamin deficiencies in the blood, and can cause long-term neurological effects, including paralysis and death; and
WHEREAS, possession of nitrous oxide with the intent to breathe, inhale, or ingest for the purpose of causing intoxication is a misdemeanor pursuant to California Penal Code section 381b; and
WHEREAS, selling, furnishing, administering, distributing, or giving away nitrous oxide, or offering to do so, to a person under 18 years of age is a misdemeanor offense under California Penal Code section 381c. Additionally, a person who dispenses or distributes nitrous oxide to any person, and knows or should know that the person to whom they are dispensing or distributing nitrous oxide intends to breathe, inhale, or ingest the substance, is guilty of a misdemeanor if that person causes great bodily injury or death to themselves or another person, under California Penal Code section 381d; and WHEREAS, California Penal Code section 381e also requires that a person dispensing or distributing nitrous oxide maintain a record of each transaction, signed by the purchaser, and make such records available for inspection to law enforcement and employees of the California Board of Pharmacy; and
WHEREAS, despite state regulation of the sale and use of nitrous oxide, sellers who know or should know that their customers purchasing nitrous oxide intend to breathe, inhale, or ingest the substance, continue to sell nitrous oxide using a “don’t ask, don’t tell” approach. Often, the amounts of nitrous oxide being sold are too small for legitimate medical, industrial, or culinary use. Nitrous oxide is also sold in colorful canisters with names such as “Galaxy Gas,” which come in a variety of flavors; and Item: 11A

ORDINANCE NO. 1162
PAGE 2 OF 6
WHEREAS, the rise in recreational abuse and misuse of nitrous oxide, as well as the “don’t ask, don’t tell” approach of sellers, has been documented by the County of Orange in its October 29, 2024 Investigative Hearing on substance abuse, public hearings held by the County of Orange Board of Supervisors on February 11, 2025 and February 25, 2025, and national publications such as The Atlantic1 and Los Angeles Times2; and WHEREAS, on February 25, 2025, the County of Orange Board of Supervisors adopted Ordinance No. 25-004, adding Division 19 to Title 3 of the Codified Ordinances of the County of Orange to prohibit the sale of nitrous oxide in the county, except when sold for culinary use, wholesale, for use in a vehicle, for the purpose of providing medical or dental care, or by a pharmacist. The ordinance was supported by Orange County District Attorney Todd Spitzer, the Orange County Sheriff’s Department, and the Costa Mesa Police Department; and
WHEREAS, the City does not currently regulate the sale of nitrous oxide and finds and declares that in the absence of local regulation, nitrous oxide remains subject to significant risk of misuse and abuse through sale to individuals who intend to misuse or abuse the product; and
WHEREAS, City staff have seen nitrous oxide for sale at the majority of smoke shops within the City as well as some liquor stores; and
WHEREAS, the City desires to similarly regulate the sale of nitrous oxide in order to preserve and protect public health and to dissuade sellers of nitrous oxide products from selling to individuals which they know or have reason to know intend to use the products for illegal purposes (i.e., recreational ingestion and/or inhalation); and WHEREAS, on April 8, 2025, the City Council considered the staff report, recommendations by staff and the City Attorney, and public comment regarding the adoption of Chapter 9.50 related to the sale of nitrous oxide within the City; and WHEREAS, all other legal prerequisites to the adoption of this Ordinance have occurred.

NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF STANTON, CALIFORNIA, DOES RESOLVE, DECLARE, DETERMINE AND ORDER AS FOLLOWS:

SECTION 1: The foregoing Recitals are true and correct and are incorporated herein by this reference.

SECTION 2: Chapter 9.50 is added to Title 9 (Peace, Safety, and Morals) of the Stanton Municipal Code to read in its entirety as follows:

§ 9.50.010 – Authority and Purpose
This article is enacted pursuant to the City's plenary police powers to protect the public safety, health and welfare. The express purpose of this article is to protect the public health and safety by eliminating retail access for recreational use of nitrous oxide, a dangerous gas that is illicitly used as an intoxicant, and other unsafe inhalants. § 9.50.020 – Definitions
For purposes of this article, the following definitions apply.

A. "Device” means any cartridge, compressed gas cylinder, apparatus, container, balloon, attachment, nozzle, or other object used to contain, dispense or administer nitrous oxide.

B. “Nitrous oxide” means the colorless nonflammable gas sometimes identified as N2O, which is sometimes used in aerosols and sometimes used as an anesthetic, and which, when inhaled, produces loss of sensibility to pain, often preceded by exhilaration and laughter and often used as an anesthetic in dentistry. Nitrous oxide is often informally or colloquially referred to as “laughing gas,” “NOX,” “galaxy gas,” “whippits,” amongst others.

C. “Person” means any individual or legal entity however constituted or organized.

D. “Wholesale capacity” means sale of or distribution of nitrous oxide or a device to dispense nitrous oxide to a person that will use nitrous oxide or the device in service or products for resale. Examples include, but are not limited to, commercial sale of dentistry supplies to dentists or dentistry offices, commercial sale of devices for the use in food production or in a commercial kitchen, and/or commercial sale of nitrous oxide for the purpose of producing food
products for commercial sale (e.g., whipped cream canisters).

ORDINANCE NO. 1163

AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF STANTON, CALIFORNIA, AMENDING CHAPTER 1.12 (ADMINISTRATIVE CITATIONS) OF TITLE 1 (GENERAL PROVISIONS) RELATED TO SERVICE OF CITATIONS AND CHAPTER 17.04 (SAFE AND SANE FIREWORKS) OF TITLE 17 (FIRE) OF THE STANTON MUNICIPAL CODE,

RELATED TO SOCIAL HOST LIABILITY AND ILLEGAL FIREWORKS
WHEREAS, the City of Stanton, California (“City”) is a municipal corporation, duly organized under the constitution and laws of the State of California, authorized under its police powers to make and enforce within its limits all local, police, sanitary, and other ordinances and regulations not in conflict with general laws; and WHEREAS, the City may enact an ordinance regulating fireworks within its jurisdiction that is compatible with the State Fireworks Law (Health & Safety Code, § 12500 et seq.); and
WHEREAS, the City currently regulates fireworks pursuant to Chapter 17.04 of the Stanton Municipal Code. Chapter 17.04 has been periodically updated to reflect changes in state law and guidance from the State Fire Marshall; and WHEREAS, the City Council has identified the discharge of illegal fireworks as a nuisance, and finds that there should be an increase in enforcement and penalties for the discharge of illegal fireworks; and
WHEREAS, each year following the Fourth of July holiday, the Orange County Fire Authority (“OCFA”) gathers data to analyze the overall impact of fireworks throughout Orange County. According to the “2024 Independence Day After Action Report” prepared by OCFA, County-wide injuries associated with fireworks increased by 43 percent from 2023. Thirty-two percent of County-wide fireworks-related injuries were due to dangerous fireworks, while 1 percent of injuries were due to safe and sane fireworks. County-wide fireworks-related property loss in 2024 increased exponentially, at a reported $1,622,300 (an almost 800 percent increase from 2023); and
WHEREAS, City code enforcement and law enforcement have faced challenges correctly identifying and citing violators of Chapter 17.04 when fireworks are discharged at private residences or block parties during crowded gatherings. To increase enforcement mechanisms available to law enforcement and code enforcement, the City desires to adopt “social host” regulations. These regulations which would make the property owner or person in charge of a property strictly liable for allowing any person to sell, possess, ignite, explode, project, or otherwise fire or make use of fireworks on the property owned by such person or under the control of such person in violation of this chapter, irrespective of such person's intent, knowledge, or negligence; and
WHEREAS, serious threat of fire or injury is posed by violations of Chapter 17.04 to surrounding properties, individuals, and to the general public. The amendments to the City's fireworks ordinance are intended to impose strict civil liability upon the violator and the property owner or person in charge of a property. Moreover, each use, display and/or Item: 11B

ORDINANCE NO. 1163
PAGE 2 OF 7
possession of fireworks on a property shall constitute a separate violation, and each violation is intended to be subject to a separate administrative fine. Fines associated with “dangerous fireworks,” as defined by the Ordinance, are higher than the illegal discharge of “safe and sane fireworks,” given the exponential risks to life and property associated with “dangerous fireworks”; and
WHEREAS, the administrative fines described in this Ordinance are imposed under authority of Government Code Section 53069.4 and Health and Safety Code Section 12557, in addition to the City's police power; and
WHEREAS, the City additionally desires to remove the requirement that administrative citations must be personally served, and instead provide that administrative citations may be personally served or served by first class mail. This amendment is intended to streamline the City’s ability to provide notice of a citation while ensuring a person’s due process right to receiving notice; and
WHEREAS, on April 8, 2025, the City Council considered the staff report, recommendations by staff and the City Attorney, and public comment regarding the amendment of Chapter 17.04; and
WHEREAS, all other legal prerequisites to the adoption of this Ordinance have occurred.

NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF STANTON, CALIFORNIA, DOES RESOLVE, DECLARE, DETERMINE AND ORDER AS FOLLOWS:

The Council was invited to participate in an interactive poll to share what effective and ineffective governance means to them. The Council defined ineffective governance as being “selfish”, “partisan”, and having “closed ears”. The Council defined effective governance as being one characterized by “teamwork”, “respect”, and “resourcefulness.”
Baker Tilly set expectations for the evening and shared that the Council would be focusing on affirming the goals and priorities for the upcoming fiscal year, while judiciously allocating finite time and resources. To set the stage for looking forward to the upcoming fiscal year, Baker Tilly reviewed accomplishments, opportunities, and challenges as identified by both Council and executive staff.

The next section of the workshop focused on reviewing the City’s existing strategic goals, and redefining or affirming what these goals should be moving forward. The Council ultimately identified the following updated strategic goals.

Good Governance
Using the analogy of being on a sports team, Ms. Jacobs detailed the unique roles of the City of Stanton team members from the City Council to staff. She noted that when everyone stays in their role, things operate efficiently, and trust and respect are developed. Additionally, she highlighted best practices for an effective council-manager working relationship. The Council and City Manager must practice the “no surprise” rule, which is to say that the City Council needs to trust that the City Manager is addressing their policies, directions, and actions and that the City Manager is providing the City Council with up-to-date and relevant information to make informed decisions. The two slides below were shown during this portion of the workshop.

Workshop Overview
4 The Councilmembers were then invited to participate in an interactive poll to learn what they think describes effective governance and ineffective governance. Using their cell phones, each Councilmember entered up to three words or short definitions to the following two questions:
*Due to technical difficulties, teamwork and respect were incorrectly entered for ineffective governance.

Goal-Setting Workshop
Workshop Overview
5 Context for Strategic Planning and Goal Setting
Ms. Jacobs explained that strategic planning is normally undertaken to establish goals and outcomes for a three-, five-, or ten-year period and includes identifying organizational vision and mission statements and values in addition to the broad multi-year goals. However, the purpose of the workshop was to set goals and priorities focused on a one-year period.

She then explained the importance of establishing priorities for staff to focus on. Using the big rock theory,1 you must allocate time and resources to achieve the important things. Otherwise, the small stuff will take up most of the staff’s time, leaving little time left to work on the larger and more important matters. Additionally, staff want to ensure they are focusing on the items that are the most important to the City Council.

Ms. Jacobs then turned the meeting over to the Finance Director, who provided a brief overview of the City’s financial outlook, projecting an ending general fund balance of $35,781,122 in the current fiscal year (FY 2024-25). Ms. Jacobs mentioned that after the Council’s priorities are identified, staff will include funding to achieve the strategic goals during the budget process.

Reflections
Ms. Jacobs shared information on recent accomplishments, initiatives underway, opportunities and challenges. Baker Tilly discovered this information during interviews with Councilmembers and the meeting with the City’s executive team, as shown below. She noted that the City has made tremendous progress and has completed a wide range of times.

Affirming Goals
Ms. Jacobs presented the City’s existing six goals as listed below.

1. Provide a Safe Community

2. Promote a Strong Local Economy

3. Provide Quality Infrastructure

4. Ensure Fiscal Stability and Efficiency in Governance

5. Provide a High Quality of Life

6. Maintain and Promote a Responsive, High-Quality and Transparent Government.

She noted, for clarity, that each goal should have a statement associated with it to define its meaning as the words can mean different things to different people. As an example, Goal 1 to Provide a Safe Community may be interpreted as providing police and fire services; however, a safe community involves much more.

Ms. Jacobs asked the Councilmembers to consider splitting Goal 4 into two separate goals. The reasoning for this is that finance and governance are two different things, and governance is more specific to the Council and its role and responsibilities.

She then pointed out that Goal 5 to Provide a High Quality of Life could be removed as it is a part of Goals 1 through 4 and is duplicative in nature.

Following the discussion, the Councilmembers agreed that goal statements are needed to ensure the intent of the goals are understood, that Goal 4 should be split into two separate goals, and to remove providing a high quality of life as its own goal.

The Council was then presented with suggestions for goal statements for consideration. There was a healthy discussion about the proposed statements and some wordsmithing to gain consensus. Upon reflection of the rewritten statements, the Councilmembers agreed on the goals and goal statements as shown below.

Based on voting on priorities later in the evening, there was a lack of support for keeping Excellence in Governance as a goal.

City of Stanton
Goal-Setting Workshop
Workshop Overview
7 Goals and Priorities
As part of the preparation for the goal- and priority-setting workshop, City departments submitted proposed projects and programs for Council consideration that align with the proposed goals. These strategies were presented to the City Council at the workshop.

Ms. Jacobs reviewed the proposed strategies to elicit questions from the Councilmembers for the staff to answer. Staff noted that some items were underway, and some were legally required. Therefore, these items were identified as ongoing priorities. As this portion of the workshop proceeded, modifications were made to the proposed strategies based on Council feedback and staff suggestions.

Next, Councilmembers conducted a voting exercise to rank the proposed strategies for staff to focus on over the next year. Each Councilmember was given a sheet of paper with a list of the goals and proposed strategies with any modifications noted. They were instructed to select their top five strategies. The results of the Councilmembers’ choices were tallied on the large size posters in the room that had the same information so the Council, staff and other workshop participants could see the results. See Attachment A for the complete list of strategies and the results of the voting exercise.

Priorities Underway or Required
As noted above, during the review of the proposed priorities, staff informed the Councilmembers that several were currently underway, with some funded and/or required to implement due to changes in State laws. It is important to highlight these strategies as resources are already committed to them, and they are reflective of workload constraints for the coming year.

Goal 1. Provide a Safe Community. Ensure a safe community to protect our residents, visitors, and businesses.

Goal 2. Promote a Strong Local Economy. Develop and implement measures to increase productivity, support local businesses and provide for economic development.

Goal 3. Provide Quality Infrastructure. Invest in infrastructure maintenance and improvements to meet the evolving needs of the community.

Goal 4. Ensure fiscal stability. Provide objective, transparent information while continuing to evaluate the efficiency of services.

Goal 5. Maintain and promote a responsive, high-quality and transparent government. Provide effective leadership, responsive management, and meaningful communication while fostering mutual respect, public trust and ethical behavior in all governing processes.

Goal-Setting Workshop
Workshop Overview
8 Top Three Priorities
Strategies receiving a majority (three) of votes make up the City Council’s top priorities for completion this year. The three priorities are listed below.

Remaining Strategies
Strategies receiving less than three dots are important for staff to address as resources permit. These strategies should remain in focus should there be a significant change such as securing funding, imposed regulations, or another situation that requires the item(s) to move up in priority. Should the Council determine that an adjustment to its priorities is necessary, it is a best practice to review the established priorities and determine what can be postponed for staff to pivot and work on something new.

The strategies receiving two, one, or zero votes are listed in Tables 1 through 3 below. Where staff input adds value to clarifying or understanding the strategies, information is reflected within parentheses next to the appropriate strategy.
