Item No.7J
TO:Andrew P. Powers, City Manager
FROM:Clifford G. Finley, Public Works Director
DATE:November 1, 2022
SUBJECT: Triennial Public Health Goal Water Quality Report RECOMMENDATION:
Receive Public Health Goal Report and accept public comments on the City of Thousand Oaks 2022 Triennial Public Health Goals Report.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
No Additional Funding Requested. Staff time to prepare report is included in the Adopted FY 2022-23 Water Operating Fund Budget.
BACKGROUND:
In 1996, the California Legislature passed SB 1307 which added provisions to the California Health and Safety Code. This law requires water utilities with greater than 10,000 service connections to prepare a report every three years regarding applicable state Public Health Goals (PHG) or federal Maximum Contaminant Level Goals (MCLG). A Public Hearing must be held to accept comments on the report. These state and federal goals are not enforceable standards and water agencies are not required to meet these goals. There are other enforceable standards, such as Maximum Contaminate Levels (MCL) set by the United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) and the State Water Resources Control Board (SWRCB) to provide water quality protection to consumers.
Staff have prepared the 2022 Triennial Public Health Goal Report (Attachment #1).
The requirement to prepare PHG reports is unique to California. The reports are required in addition to the extensive monthly, quarterly, and annual public reporting of water quality information by California water utilities. The City’s initial PHG report was presented to City Council in 1998. The legislation requires that subsequent reports be prepared and presented every three years. The triennial PHG report provides information in addition to the Annual Water Quality Report provided to City water customers each spring (Attachment #2).

9 DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS:
The quality of the City water supply meets all enforceable state and federal requirements for safe drinking water. Comparison of the numerical goals on the list of PHGs (or applicable MCLGs) to the analytical results from 2019 to 2021 indicates the quality of City water meets all state PHGs and federal MCLGs with the exception of arsenic, bromate, lead (sampled at the customer’s tap), radionuclide particle activity (Gross Alpha, Gross Beta, uranium), and total coliform. See Attachment #1 for detailed information about these constituents.
The following table shows constituents that were detected above the goals which are still less than enforceable levels (MCLs). The table also shows that some of the constituents are only seldomly above the PHGs or MCLGs and only in a very small fraction of the City’s water supply:
See Attachment #1 for discussion about the various water sources the City receives.
The public health goal report is for public information only to meet the State Supply Sources

2022 Triennial Public Health Goal Report:
Report on the City’s Water Quality Relative to Public Health Goals Prepared by Paul Jorgensen, Water Quality Supervisor
September 28, 2022
Background
In 1996, the California Legislature passed SB 1307 (Sher/Calderone). This legislation became codified in the California Health and Safety Code Section 11647(b). These provisions require water utilities with greater than 10,000 service connections to prepare a report every three years if any constituent in their water supply exceeds any applicable Public Health Goal (PHG). A public hearing must be held to accept comment on the report. The initial City report was presented to City Council on July 28, 1998 at a noticed public hearing. Successive triennial reports were presented to City Council on May 21, 2001, July 13, 2004, July 1, 2007, September 28, 2010, September 24, 2013, October 25, 2016 and October 8, 2019.
PHGs are non-enforceable goals established by the State Office of Environmental Health Hazard Assessment (OEHHA) to identify thresholds for health effects associated with contaminants in Drinking Water. The law also requires that if a PHG has not been adopted by OEHHA, that water suppliers are to use the MCLGs (Maximum Contaminant Limit Goals) established by the United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) as a basis of comparison. Only constituents that have a California primary drinking water standard, known as a Maximum Contaminant Level (MCL) for which there is an adopted PHG (or MCLG), are to be addressed in the report. There are a few constituents that are routinely detected in drinking water for which no PHG or MCLG has yet been adopted by OEHHA or the EPA. These will be addressed in a future report subsequent to adoption of a new PHG by OEHHA.
If a constituent was detected in the City’s water supply during the reporting years of 2019, 2020 and 2021 (reporting years) at a level exceeding an applicable PHG (or MCLG), the law defines the information that needs to be included in this report.
Requirements:
1. Compare the numerical goals on the list of PHGs (or applicable MCLGs) to the analytical results contained in the City’s Annual Water Quality Reports for the reporting years of 2019, 2020 and 2021.
Item No.8A

2. Identify any constituents detected at levels above the PHG (or MCLG) threshold.
3. Obtain health risk assessment information from existing governmental regulatory source documents including; the type of health risk related to each contaminant above the PHG and the numerical public health risk of both the Maximum Contaminant Level (MCL) and the PHG.
4. For those constituents identified in number two above, determine the Best Available Technology (BAT) for removal or treatment of each of those contaminant(s). Estimate the total cost to the system and the cost to the customer for the purveyor to install, operate and maintain the identified BATs to lower the subject contaminant(s) to below the PHG.
5. Combine the results from the above noted steps into a written report. This report will include a brief description of what action (if any) the City intends to take to reduce the concentration of the noted contaminant(s) and the basis for that decision.
6. Conduct a public hearing to accept public comment on the report.
7. Repeat the process in three years to address any new PHGs and or MCLGs in effect at that time.
Public Health Goals (PHG) and Maximum Contaminate Levels (MCL) PHGs are set by the California Office of Environmental Health Hazard Assessment (OEHHA), which is part of Cal-EPA. PHGs are based entirely on public health risk considerations. Contrastingly, when Maximum Contaminant Levels (MCLs) are set (which are the enforceable standards), other factors are taken into consideration. These factors include health risks, analytical detection capability, treatment technology availability, costs and/or benefits. MCLs are set by the EPA and/or State. Unlike MCLs, PHGs are not enforceable and are not required standards to be met by any public water system. MCLGs are the Federal equivalent of PHGs.
In addition to each contaminate having an MCL and either a PHG or MCLG standard they also have a Detection Level for Reporting Purposes (DLR). When a contaminant is tested and the results are below the DLR, the results are to be reported as non-detect (ND). This is because once the analytical results are below the DLR, the accuracy of the results cannot be verified with current analytical techniques. Per the recommendation of the State Water Resources Control Board (SWRCB) Division of Drinking Water (DDW) Santa Barbara District Office, there are contaminants included in this report that had results below the DLR but were above the PHG and/or MCLG.

Water Quality Data Considered and Water Sources
All water quality data collected for the City of Thousand Oaks’ (City) water system in 2019, 2020 and 2021 for purposes of compliance with drinking water standards were considered. These analytical results are summarized in the 2019, 2020 and 2021 Annual Water Quality Reports (AWQR), which were made available to City water customers by July 1st of each year on the City’s website at www.toaks.org/waterqualityreport.
The City purchases its water from Calleguas Municipal Water District (CMWD) in Thousand Oaks, which purchases its water from the Metropolitan Water District (MWD).
Most of the data used for this PHG report as well as the AWQR, is from the analytical testing results from MWD since they are the agency responsible for supplying and treating most of the water the City purchases. The remainder of the data comes from analytical testing results generated by CMWD and the City. For the 2019 and 2020 reporting years, as with most years, about 98 percent of the water the City received from MWD was from the State Water Project coming from Northern California and was treated at MWD’s Jensen Treatment Plant in located Granada Hills. In 2021, due to the drought, 14 percent of the water the City received from MWD was from the Colorado River Aqueduct system and treated at MWD’s Weymouth Treatment Plant in La Verne. CMWD treats and delivers water to the City from their Lake Bard Water Filtration Facility for about one to two weeks per year when MWD has a shutdown of their system for maintenance and repairs. Water the City received from CMWD accounted for about 1 percent – 3 percent of the water supply for the reporting years. The City does not treat the water that it delivers to its customers.
Guidelines Followed
There are no guidelines that have been established by the regulatory community. The Association of California Water Agencies (ACWA) formed a work group, which prepared guidelines for water utilities to use in the preparation of these reports. The ACWA guidelines were used in the preparation of this report in addition to using the California Health and Safety Code Section 11647 (b) along with feedback from staff at the SWRCB DDW, Santa Barbara District Office.
Best Available Technology and Cost Estimates
The USEPA and SWRCB adopt lists of Best Available Technology techniques (BATs), which are understood to be the best-known methods for reducing contaminant levels in water to meet specific MCLs. Costs can be estimated for applications of such technologies. However, since many of the PHGs and MCLGs are much lower than the MCLs, it is not always feasible to determine the type of treatment needed to further reduce or eliminate a constituent to meet a PHG or MCLG, many of which are set at zero.
Estimating costs to reduce a constituent to zero is difficult if not impossible, because it is not possible to verify by analytical means that a constituent is not present at any concentration. In some cases, treatment to reduce the existing concentrations of a constituent may have adverse effects on other constituents or water quality parameters.
Item No.8A
2 7
0 2
Reverse Osmosis is one of the highest levels of treatment that would be required to treat some of the contaminates detected above the PHG and ACWA has provided some estimates that this could cost water customers up to or more than an additional $1,800 per household per year.
Understanding the Units
To illustrate some of the terms used to define the units of measure used in this report, it may be helpful to visualize the scale:
•One “part per million” (ppm) is equivalent to one drop of water in an aquarium (13.2 gallons).
•One “part per billion” (ppb) is equivalent to one drop of water in a standard swimming pool (13,208 gallons)
Constituents Detected that exceed a PHG (or MCLG)
Table 1: 2019, 2020 and 2021 Water Quality Data Results The quality of the City’s water supply met all State and Federal Maximum Contaminant Levels (MCLs). The quality of the City’s water supply also met all State Public Health Goals (PHGs) except for arsenic, bromate, lead (at the tap), and uranium.

constituents, Gross Alpha Particle Activity (Gross Alpha) and Gross Beta Particle Activity (Gross Beta). These detections above the PHG and MCLG did not occur regularly but were mostly on an infrequent basis due to the different water sources the City received.
Arsenic
The MCL for arsenic is set at 10 ppb (parts per billion) and the PHG is set at 0.004 ppb.
The source of arsenic in California drinking water is from the erosion of natural mineral deposits. Other sources can be from run-off from agriculture and industrial processes.
The concentration in the purchased drinking water supplied to the City during the reporting years ranged from ND - 4.0 ppb. These concentrations are well below the MCL 10 ppb for arsenic.
People who drink water containing arsenic at the MCL throughout their lifetime could experience an increased risk of getting cancer. OEHHA has determined that the numerical health risk associated with drinking two liters of water a day for seventy years with arsenic at the MCL is 2.5 X 10¯3 or two and a half theoretical cancer cases out 1,000 and the numerical health risk at the PHG is 1 X 10-6 or one theoretical cancer case out of one million.
The two BATs for removing arsenic from water are Reverse Osmosis and Ion Exchange.
Also, BATs are designed for treatment techniques to achieve compliance with MCLs and not PHGs. The City distributes treated water and does not have treatment facilities, capacity or appropriate certified water treatment personnel. Additional treatment would need to be performed by MWD and/or CMWD. For these reasons, it is not practical or feasible to estimate costs to reduce arsenic from the water that the City purchases from its’ suppliers. Our water system is in full compliance with both the Federal and State arsenic MCLs.
Bromate:
The State MCL of 10 ppb for bromate went into effect in 2001 for large water systems. In 2009, the State set a PHG for bromate at 0.1 ppb. Bromate is produced when water with traces of bromide is treated with ozone. Seawater influence on State Project Water in the Sacramento River Delta has resulted in detectable levels of bromide in the imported water supply. Low levels of bromate have subsequently been detected since ozonation was initiated by MWD at the Jensen Filtration Plant in 2005. The concentrations during the reporting years ranged between ND - 9.8 ppb, which were all below the MCL of 10 ppb.
People who drink water containing bromate above the MCL throughout their lifetime could experience an increased risk of getting cancer. OEHHA has determined that the numerical health risk associated with drinking two liters of water a day for seventy years Item No.8A

with bromate at the MCL is 1 X 10-4 or one theoretical cancer case out of 10,000 and the numerical health risk at the PHG is 1 X 10 -6 or one theoretical cancer case out of one million.
The BAT for bromate is control of the ozone treatment process to reduce production of bromate. As the PHG for Bromate is 0.1 ppb, it is difficult if not impossible to eliminate bromide in source waters and discontinuation of ozonation might result in increased disinfection by-products and other increased health risks. It is important to note that use of ozonation in the treatment process minimizes levels of trihalomethanes which are by- products of drinking water disinfection. Our water system is in full compliance with the Federal and State bromate limits. MWD continues to strive to minimize “bromate” production during the ozonation treatment process.
Lead(at the tap)
The State has not adopted an MCL for Lead but has adopted a PHG of 0.2 ppb. The State has set a regulatory Action Level at 15 ppb for lead, which takes the place of an MCL.
This Action Level is set to indicate the concentration at which a water agency would need to initiate treatment techniques and other required actions if it was exceeded.
Every three years the City is required to sample water at the customer’s tap for lead and copper. This “first flush” sampling is required by the State and is used as an indicator for the results of the “worst case” scenario for the leaching of copper and lead from copper pipe, brass fixtures and soldered joints into water when it sits for six hours or more in the customer’s tap prior to use. More corrosive and aggressive water will leach more lead and copper. The City’s water is non-corrosive as determined from the analytical results on the Langlier Stability Index. Results from the last round of lead and copper sampling conducted by the City in 2019 indicated that out of the thirty six samples tested, the 90 th percentile of results for “first flush” lead (at the tap) was 2.3 ppb. This result exceeds the PHG of 0.2 ppb but is below the DLR of 5.0 ppb and below the Action Level of 15 ppb.
The 90th percentile result for copper was below the PHG of 0.3 ppm.
The two health risks associated with lead are chronic toxicity and cancer. The numerical health risk associated with drinking two liters of water a day for seventy years with lead at the AL is 2 X 10-6 or two theoretical cancer cases out of one million and the numerical health risk at the PHG is 3 X 10 -8 or three theoretical cancer cases out of one hundred million.
Our water system is in full compliance with Federal and State Lead and Copper Rules.
Lead has not been detected in the City’s drinking water supply and the City does not have any lead water mains or service lines in the water distribution system. Based on the extensive sampling of houses with the most potential for leaching lead and copper (those constructed before the use of lead solder was prohibited), it has been determined that, according to State regulatory requirements, the City’s water meets the regulatory Action Levels for lead and copper. Therefore, the City system has been deemed by the SWRCB to have “optimized corrosion control” for our system.
Item No.8A
2 7
0 2
In general, optimizing corrosion control is the BAT to deal with corrosion issues. The City supply is monitored for water quality parameters that relate to corrosivity, such as pH, hardness, alkalinity, total dissolved solids. The City will (in conjunction with our suppliers) take action if necessary, to maintain the system in an “optimized corrosion control” condition.
Since the City system is in compliance with “optimized corrosion control” requirements, it is not prudent to initiate additional corrosion control treatment as it involves the addition of other chemicals that can affect other water quality parameters. Therefore, no estimate of cost has been included.
Radionuclide Activity: Gross Alpha, Gross Beta and Uranium The State MCL for Gross Alpha is 15 picoCuries per liter (Pci/L), 50 Pci/L for Gross Beta and 20 Pci/L for uranium. The MCLG for Gross Alpha and Gross Beta is zero (0) pCi/L.
The PHG for uranium is 0.43 Pci/L.
Radionuclides are naturally occurring radioactive elements that are present in the earth’s crust. Uranium and other radionuclides are found in many ground and surface waters due to their natural occurrence in geological formations.
MWD is required to conduct quarterly monitoring on the finished, treated potable supply for four consecutive quarters every three years and CMWD conducts this monitoring annually. This monitoring indicated the presence of Gross Alpha, Gross Beta and Uranium. The concentration range during the reporting years for Gross Alpha was ND –
5.2 Pci/L. The concentration range during the reporting years for Gross Beta was ND –
6.0 Pci/L but was only detected in 2021. The concentration range during the reporting years for uranium was ND – 3.0 Pci/L.
The health risk associated with radionuclides is an increased cancer risk for those that drink water containing radionuclides above the MCL for many years. OEHHA has determined that the numerical health risk associated with drinking two liters of water a day for seventy years with Gross Alpha at the MCL is 1 X 10 -3 or one theoretical cancer case out of 1,000 and the numerical health risk at the MCLG is zero. OEHHA has determined that the numerical health risk associated with drinking two liters of water a day for seventy years with Gross Beta at the MCL is 2 X 10 -3 or two theoretical cancer cases out of 1,000 and the numerical health risk at the MCLG is zero. OEHHA has determined that the numerical health risk associated with drinking two liters of water a day for seventy years with uranium at the MCL is 5 X 10-5 or five theoretical cancer cases out of 100,000 and the numerical health risk at the PHG is 1 X 10 -6 or one theoretical cancer case out of one million.
The BAT to reduce Gross Alpha, Gross Beta and uranium to lower the level below the MCL is reverse osmosis (RO). Since the uranium level is already below the MCL, reverse osmosis would be required to attempt to lower the uranium level to below the PHG. As Item No.8A
2 7
0 2
the MCLG for Gross Alpha and Gross Beta is zero, estimating the costs to reduce a constituent to zero is difficult if not impossible, because it is not possible to verify by analytical means that a constituent is not present at any concentration. Additional treatment would need to be performed by MWD and/or CMWD. For these reasons, it is not practical or feasible to estimate costs to reduce these radionuclides from the water that the City purchases from its’ suppliers.
Total Coliform Bacteria
The MCL for total coliform bacteria is 5 percent positive samples per month and the MCLG is set at 0 percent positive samples per month. The total coliform bacteria standard was established to minimize the possibility of water being contaminated with pathogens, which are organisms that can cause waterborne disease.
During the reporting years, the City was required to collect 60 samples per month to meet the requirements in the Total Coliform Rule. The City collected between sixty and seventy-five samples per month that were analyzed for total coliform bacteria, which totaled more than 2,100 samples during the reporting years. In May of 2020, sixty-six samples were taken, and one was positive for total coliform bacteria. This means that 1.6 percent of the monthly samples taken in May of 2020 were positive for total coliform bacteria, which exceeds the MCLG of 0 percent but was below the MCL of 5 percent.
Immediately after learning about the positive total coliform sample, the City performed the required investigation and follow up sampling event, which revealed that the follow up samples were negative for total coliform bacteria. The City remained in compliance with the state Total Coliform Rule during the reporting years.
Total coliform bacteria are only an indicator of the potential presence of pathogens, so it is not possible to state a specific numerical health risk. The USEPA usually sets MCLGs “at a level where no known or anticipated adverse effects on persons would occur”, but they indicate that they can’t do so with total coliform bacteria.
Coliform bacteria are an indicator organism that are ubiquitous in nature and are not generally considered harmful. They are used because of the ease in monitoring and analysis. If a positive sample is found, it indicates a potential problem that needs to be investigated and follow up sampling performed. It is not unusual for a water system to have an occasional positive sample.
MWD and CMWD utilize ozone as a primary disinfectant in the treatment process to achieve the requisite microbial inactivation outlined in the Surface Water Treatment Rule to assure that the water served to the City is microbiologically safe. Before delivery to the distribution system, chloramines are added at a carefully controlled residual level to provide the best health protection without causing the water to have an undesirable taste and odor or increasing the disinfection byproduct formation potential. This careful balance of treatment processes is essential to continue supplying our customers with safe drinking water.
Item No.8A
2 7
0 2
Other important measures that the City has implemented to prevent total coliform bacteria from entering into the water distribution system include: managing an effective cross- connection control program, maintaining a disinfectant residual throughout our system, episodic flushing of dead end water mains, an effective monitoring and sampling program, supplementing reservoirs with chloramines and maintaining positive pressures in the distribution system. The City’s system has already taken all the steps identified by DDW as best available technology for coliform bacteria in Section 64447, Title 22, of the California Code of Regulations.
Recommendations
The quality of the City’s drinking water meets all SWRCB and USEPA drinking water standards to protect public health. Any attempt to further reduce the level of the constituents identified in this report which are already significantly below the health based MCLs established to provide “safe drinking water”, would have uncertain results. Any treatment to further reduce these contaminants may have adverse effects on other constituents or water quality parameters. The health protection benefits of a further hypothetical reduction are not clear or quantifiable. In addition, since the City purchases all its water which is treated by MWD and CMWD prior to delivery, all enhanced treatment efforts would need to be performed by MWD and CMWD. Therefore, no action is proposed or recommended.

PUBLIC EDUCATION
The City is pleased to present to you this year’s Annual Water Quality Report, which shows that the City’s water supply met or exceeded all State and Federal standards in 2019.
We are committed to providing you this information in the sincere belief that informed customers are our best partners.
Included in this report are details about where your water comes from, what it contains and how it compares to State standards. The City works very hard with our neighbors, our partners and suppliers to continually improve the quality of the water supply, the protection of our water sources, the dependability of supply and the integrity of our storage and distribution system.
Our Water Source
97% of the City’s water supply in 2019 was from the
State Water Project. This surface water is imported from Northern California, which originates at Lake Oroville.
The water then flows through the Sacramento River
Delta system and is then transported via the California Aqueduct to Southern California. It is treated, filtered and disinfected at the Metropolitan Water District’s
(MWD) Jensen Filtration Plant in Granada Hills. Our
supply is then piped directly to the City through the
transmission facilities of the Calleguas Municipal Water District (Calleguas). Should this supply be interrupted by general maintenance, earthquake or other calamity,
Calleguas can also deliver water to the City from their Lake Bard Water Filtration Facility and Reservoir located in the hills between Thousand Oaks and Simi Valley. For several weeks out of the year, the remaining 3% of the
City’s water supply in 2019 came from the Calleguas
Lake Bard Water Filtration Facility and Reservoir.
PUBLIC PARTICIPATION
The City drinking water system is managed as an
enterprise fund by the elected City Council. Operations are conducted by the Public Works Department. The
City Council meets on Tuesday evenings at 6 PM in the
Scherr Forum Theater in the Civic Arts Plaza located
at 2100 Thousand Oaks Blvd. For information about
Council meeting schedules, please call 805-449-2151.

PUBLIC HEAL TH
Some people may be more vulnerable to contaminants in drinking water than the general population. Immuno-compromised persons such as those with cancer who are undergoing chemotherapy, persons who have undergone organ transplants, people with HIV/AIDS or other immune system disorders, some elderly, and infants can be particularly at risk from infections. These people should seek advice about their drinking water from their health care providers. The USEPA and the Centers for Disease Control guidelines on appropriate means to lessen the risk from infection by Cryptosporidium and other microbial contaminants are available from the USEPA Safe Drinking Water Hotline (800-426-4791).
Fluoride - MWD initiated a Fluoride Optimization Program in November of 2007. Naturally occurring fluoride level ranges from
0.1 to 0.3 mg/L (parts per million). MWD has adjusted the level to the optimal range for dental health of 0.7 mg/L. If you or your children are taking Fluoride supplements, please consult with your dentist or dental healthcare provider for further direction.
Purity and Contaminants - Drinking water, including bottled water, may reasonably be expected to contain at least small amounts of some contaminants. The presence of contaminants does not necessarily indicate that the water poses a health risk.
More information about contaminants and potential health risks may also be obtained by calling the Safe Drinking Water Hotline (800-426-4791).
The sources of drinking water (both tap and bottled water) include rivers, lakes, streams, ponds, reservoirs, springs and wells. As water travels over the surface of the land or through the ground, it dissolves naturally occurring minerals and, in some cases, radioactive material, and can pick up substances resulting from the presence of animals or from human activity.
During the year, thousands of tests were conducted on our drinking water for over 150 drinking water constituents and contaminants to ensure the safety of your drinking water. Prior to filtration and treatment, contaminants that may be present in source water include:
Inorganic contaminants, such as salts and metals that can be naturally occurring or result from urban stormwater run- off, industrial or domestic wastewater discharges, oil and gas production, mining, or farming.
Organic chemical contaminants, including synthetic and
volatile organic chemicals, which are by-products of industrial processes and petroleum production, and can also come from gas stations, urban stormwater run-off, agricultural application and septic systems.
Microbial contaminants, such as viruses and
bacteria that may come from sewage treatment
plants, septic systems, agricultural livestock
operations and wildlife.
Radiological contaminants can be naturally occurring or the result of oil and gas production and mining activities.
Pesticides and Herbicides that may come from a variety
of sources such as agriculture, urban stormwater run-off and residential uses.
Lead was not detected in the City’s water supply. However, if present, elevated levels of lead can cause serious health problems especially for pregnant women and young children. Lead in drinking water is primarily from materials and components associated with service lines and private internal plumbing. The City does not use or install lead service lines and cannot control the variety of materials used in private plumbing components. If you are concerned about lead leaching out of your plumbing materials after your water has not been used for several hours, you can minimize the potential for lead exposure by flushing your tap for at least 30 seconds before using the water for drinking or cooking.
Also, if you still have concerns about lead in your water due to internal plumbing materials you can hire a private laboratory to test your water for lead. Information on lead in drinking water, testing methods and steps you can take to minimize exposure is available from the Safe Drinking Water Hotline (800-426-4791) or at http:// www.epa.gov/safewater/lead.
MWD has conducted a source water assessment of its State Water Project supplies. State Water Project supplies are most vulnerable to urban/storm water runoff, wildlife, agriculture, recreation and wastewater. A copy of the assessment can be obtained by contacting MWD (213-217-6000).
In order to ensure that tap water is safe to drink, the SWRCB prescribes regulations that limit the number of certain contaminants in water provided by public water systems. The quality of our drinking water meets all State requirements for safe water.

Item No.8A
OUR WATER SOURCE
85% of the City’s water supply in 2021 was from the
State Water Project. This surface water is imported from Northern California, which originates at Lake Oroville.
The water then flows through the Sacramento River
Delta system and is then transported via the California Aqueduct to Southern California. It is treated, filtered and disinfected at the Metropolitan Water District’s
(MWD) Jensen Filtration Plant in Granada Hills. 14% of
the City’s water supply in 2021 was from a blend of the Colorado River and State Water Project. It is treated,
filtered and disinfected at the Metropolitan Water
District’s (MWD) Weymouth Filtration Plant in La Verne.
Our supply is then piped directly to the City through the transmission facilities of the Calleguas Municipal Water District (Calleguas). Should this supply be interrupted by general maintenance, earthquake or other calamity,
Calleguas can also deliver water to the City from their Lake Bard Water Filtration Facility and Reservoir located in the hills between Thousand Oaks and Simi Valley. For several weeks out of the year, the remaining 1% of the
City’s water supply in 2021 came from the Calleguas
Lake Bard Water Filtration Facility and Reservoir.
PUBLIC PARTICIPATION
The City drinking water system is managed as an
enterprise fund by the elected City Council. Operations are conducted by the Public Works Department. The
City Council meets on Tuesday evenings at 6 PM in the
Scherr Forum Theater in the Civic Arts Plaza located at 2100 Thousand Oaks Blvd. For information about Council
meeting schedules, please call 805-449-2151 or visit

PUBLIC EDUCATION
The City is pleased to present to you this year’s Annual Water Quality Report, which shows that the City’s water supply met or exceeded all State and Federal standards in 2021.
We are committed to providing you this information in the sincere belief that informed customers are our best partners.
Included in this report are details about where your water comes from, what it contains and how it compares to State standards. The City works very hard with our neighbors, our partners and suppliers to continually improve the quality of the water supply, the protection of our water sources, the dependability of supply and the integrity of our

PUBLIC HEALTH
Some people may be more vulnerable to contaminants in drinking water than the general population. Immuno-compromised persons such as those with cancer who are undergoing chemotherapy, persons who have undergone organ transplants, people with HIV/ AIDS or other immune system disorders, some elderly, and infants can be particularly at risk from infections. These people should seek advice about their drinking water from their health care providers. The USEPA and the Centers for Disease Control guidelines on appropriate means to lessen the risk from infection by Cryptosporidium and other microbial contaminants are available from the USEPA Safe Drinking Water Hotline (800-426-4791).
Fluoride - MWD initiated a Fluoride Optimization Program in November of 2007. Naturally occurring fluoride level ranges from
0.1 to 0.4 mg/L (parts per million). MWD has adjusted the level to the optimal range for dental health of 0.7 mg/L. If you or your children are taking Fluoride supplements, please consult with your dentist or dental healthcare provider for further direction.
Purity and Contaminants - Drinking water, including bottled water, may reasonably be expected to contain at least small amounts of some contaminants. The presence of contaminants does not necessarily indicate that the water poses a health risk. More information about contaminants and potential health risks may also be obtained by calling the Safe Drinking Water Hotline
(1-800-426-4791).
The sources of drinking water (both tap and bottled water) include rivers, lakes, streams, ponds, reservoirs, springs and wells. As water travels over the surface of the land or through the ground, it dissolves naturally occurring minerals and, in some cases, radioactive material, and can pick up substances resulting from the presence of animals or from human activity.
During the year, thousands of tests were conducted on our drinking water for over 150 drinking water constituents and contaminants to ensure the safety of your drinking water. Prior to filtration and treatment, contaminants that may be present in source water include:
Inorganic contaminants, such as salts and metals that can be naturally occurring or result from urban stormwater run-off, industrial or domestic wastewater discharges, oil and gas production, mining, or farming.
Organic chemical contaminants, including synthetic and volatile organic chemicals, which are by-products of industrial processes and petroleum production, and can also come from gas stations, urban stormwater run-off, agricultural application and septic systems.
Microbial contaminants, such as viruses and bacteria that may come from sewage treatment plants, septic systems, agricultural livestock operations and wildlife.operations and wildlife.
Radiological contaminants can be naturally occurring or the result of oil and gas production and mining activities.
Pesticides and Herbicides that may come from a variety of sources such as agriculture, urban stormwater run-off and residential uses.
Lead was not detected in the City’s water supply. However, if present, elevated levels of lead can cause serious health problems especially for pregnant women and young children. Lead in drinking water is primarily from materials and components associated with service lines and private internal plumbing. The City does not use or install lead service lines and cannot control the variety of materials used in private plumbing components. If you are concerned about lead leaching out of your plumbing materials after your water has not been used for several hours, you can minimize the potential for lead exposure by flushing your tap for at least 30 seconds before using the water for drinking or cooking.
Also, if you still have concerns about lead in your water due to internal plumbing materials you can hire a private laboratory to test your water for lead. Information on lead in drinking water, testing methods and steps you can take to minimize exposure is available from the Safe Drinking Water Hotline (1-800-426-4791) or at
http://www.epa.gov/safewater/lead.
MWD has conducted a source water assessment of its State Water Project supplies. State Water Project supplies are most vulnerable to urban/ storm water runoff, wildlife, agriculture, recreation and wastewater. A copy of the assessment can be obtained by contacting MWD by phone at (213-217-6000).
In order to ensure that tap water is safe to drink, the SWRCB prescribes regulations that limit the number of certain contaminants in water provided by public water systems. The quality of our drinking water meets all State requirements for safe water.
Item No.8A
The following table lists the drinking water contaminants that were detected in the City’s drinking water during 2021. The presence of any of these contaminants in the water does not necessarily constitute a health risk. As you can determine from the results, the quality of the water delivered by the City consistently meets all State standards. The data presented in this table is from testing performed between January 1 and December 31, 2021, unless otherwise noted. State of California Standards are either equal to, or more stringent than Federal USEPA water quality standards. Therefore, Federal MCLs are not listed. Applicable Abbreviations, Definitions and Notes are identified at the conclusion of the Table.

7 BACKGROUND:
The Authority is a joint powers authority (JPA) sponsored by the California Association for Local Economic Development (CALED) whose purpose is to issue tax-exempt and taxable conduit revenue bonds to fund commercial and industrial development projects within member jurisdictions. Federal and state laws provide the ability for cities and counties to join together under cooperative agreements to form joint powers authorities to issue tax-exempt and taxable bonds. These bonds fund projects that provide a public benefit and serve the needs of residents within the jurisdictions of the participating members. Cities and counties in California utilize JPAs primarily for economies of scale, to access specialized transaction knowledge and resources, and to avoid using valuable local staff time on these types of transactions.
The Authority was created by the cities of Selma, Lancaster, and Eureka. Approximately 200 cities and counties are associate members of the Authority. The Authority’s activities are dedicated to providing economic development assistance to member jurisdictions as an extension of the economic development assistance provided by CALED to its members. The City became an Associate Member of the Authority on December 10, 2015, pursuant to Resolution No. 2015-061. As an Associate Member of the Authority, the City is eligible to participate in the Authority’s programs.
The Borrower is a non-profit organization dedicated to advancing the independence, productivity, and full citizenship of children and adults with disabilities and medical conditions. The Borrower helps individuals with disabilities at all stages of life and helps families by guiding new parents on the best path forward. The Borrower provides a broad range of services to its clients including mobility, opportunities to work and live independently, occupational, physical, and speech therapy and many more.

The Borrower and the Authority have requested that the City conduct a Tax Equity and Fiscal Responsibility Act of 1982 (TEFRA) hearing and approve a resolution in accordance with Internal Revenue Code Section 147(f) authorizing the issuance of tax-exempt obligations by the Authority in an amount not-to-exceed $20,000,000. A TEFRA hearing is required by the Internal Revenue Code before tax-exempt debt can be issued for the benefit of a private nonprofit corporation.
The hearing gives the public an opportunity to comment on the use of tax-exempt funds by the Borrower.

7 The proceeds of the Bonds will be loaned to the Borrower by the Authority for the purpose of:
1. financing, refinancing, and/or reimbursing the Borrower for the cost of the acquisition, improvement, construction, development, installation, equipping, and furnishing of certain facilities on an approximately 8.40-acre parcel of land located at 2400 Willow Lane, Thousand Oaks, California 91361, including an approximately 81,994 square foot commercial building (collectively, the Facilities), and
2. paying certain costs of issuance and other costs related in connection with the Bonds.
The issuance of the Bonds as tax-exempt will reduce financing and debt service costs for the Borrower. In order to satisfy the requirements for the obligations to be issued as tax-exempt, an applicable elected representative, which is also a member of the Authority, is required to conduct the TEFRA hearing and approve the issuance of the tax-exempt obligations in accordance with Section 147(f) of the Code. City Council of the City of Thousand Oaks constitutes an applicable elected representative under Section 147(f) of the Code.
Community Outreach
Pursuant to the requirements of the Code, a notice of this hearing was published in the Ventura County Star on Tuesday, October 18, 2022.

Item No.8B
TO:Andrew P. Powers, City Manager
FROM:Gary Rogers, Deputy City Manager
DATE:November 1, 2022
SUBJECT: Hillcrest Site (384 N. Erbes Road) Affordable Housing Developer and Exclusive Negotiating Agreement
RECOMMENDATION:
Select People’s Self-Help Housing Corporation of San Luis Obispo, California to develop affordable housing at the Hillcrest Site (384 N. Erbes Road) and authorize City Manager to initiate preparation of an Exclusive Negotiating Agreement between the City of Thousand Oaks and People’s Self-Help Housing Corporation and find that this action is not a project as defined under the California Environmental Quality Act.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
No Additional Funding Requested. Minimal staff time to prepare staff report is included in the Adopted FY 2022-23 General Fund Budget. Future financial impact to the City may include the donation of the Hillcrest site and an impact fee deferral.
BACKGROUND:
On May 11, 2021, City Council authorized staff to begin negotiations with the property owner of 384 N. Erbes Road (Hillcrest Site) to acquire the site for the purpose of affordable housing. On August 31, 2021, City Council approved the sale and purchase agreement between the City and Hillcrest Christian School.
The City subsequently secured a clean property title report and Phase 1 environmental due diligence was completed. Escrow closed on November 10, 2021, and the City assumed title to the property.
The Hillcrest Site is 3.87 acres and is zoned R3 Multiple-Family Residential for residential development (a maximum of 30 dwelling units per acre). There is currently an existing ~26,500 square foot structure located on the Hillcrest Site that will need to be demolished as part of any development.
On February 22, 2022, City Council authorized the execution of a contract with RSG, Inc. (RSG) to provide consulting services related to the Hillcrest Affordable Item No.10A

3 Housing Development Project. The contract was executed and City staff and RSG prepared a Request for Proposals/Qualifications (RFP/Q) for developers for the project. On April 26, 2022, City Council provided further guidance regarding the RFP/Q and directed that it be flexible, indicated a preference to include for-sale units, and sought environmental considerations.
The Hillcrest Affordable Housing RFP/Q was issued on June 24, 2022 and delivered to more than 500 developers. A pre-proposal conference call was conducted with interested parties on July 11, 2022; wherein information regarding the RFP/Q was shared and questions were asked and answered. The City hosted two optional property walkthroughs on July 12 and 28, 2022, to allow prospective development teams to survey the project site. Individuals from 14 organizations attended the property walkthroughs. Between June 24 and July 29 interested parties could submit questions in writing and City responses were issued and made available to all registered proposers. The final date to submit development proposals was August 15, 2022.

3 Three of the proposals were responsive to the RFP/Q - Pelican Communities, PSHHC, and Safran. Representatives from the City Manager’s Office, City Attorney’s Office, Finance Department, and Community Development Department, with participation of specialized outside legal counsel and the City consultant RSG, conducted interviews with the development teams on September 13 and 14, 2022. The predefined criteria in the RFP/Q were used to evaluate each proposal and respective development team. The criteria included the following:
In addition to interviews, the City’s consultant, RSG, conducted follow-up due diligence, including evaluation of development pro-formas. The review panel concluded that PSHHC most closely matched the criteria pre-established in the RFP/Q and the due diligence resulted in a similar conclusion.
A summary of key highlights associated with the PSHHC development team and proposal is presented below.
Developer and Partner Experience
PSHHC (a California Nonprofit Benefit Corporation) was founded in 1970 and since that time has constructed 1,200 homes via mutual self-help programs. They have offices in San Luis Obispo, Santa Barbara, and Oxnard. PSHHC brings 52 years of affordable housing development experience to the project.
The Housing Land Trust of Ventura County (HLTVC) is a supporting non-profit of the Housing Trust Fund Ventura County (HTFVC). HTFVC is a nonprofit entity created in 2008 to fund affordable housing projects and is funded by all ten Ventura County cities, state and federal programs, banks, foundations and private businesses, and donors. The HLTVC was created as a supporting non-profit entity that seeks to keep land affordable on a permanent basis. Preference for development of for-sale units. Expertise and experience of the development entity and team in designing and constructing high quality affordable housing developments.Vision and design for a market-feasible affordable housing development that implements the City’s vision for the community and promotes the community character of Thousand Oaks. Economic viability and financial strength of the proposed development, including marketability and feasibility. Financial and organizational capacity of the team to successfully complete the development in a timely manner, including the ability to secure financing and leverage other funding sources to build the highest quality housing development. Environmental considerations in construction.

3 The Ventura County Community Development Corporation (VCCDC) was incorporated in 2001 as a non-profit corporation. They build financial capacity through counseling and lending with the goal to help families gain control over their finances and achieve financial security. They have helped more than 18,000 families in Ventura County. The inclusion of VCCDC to assist with sales to eligible homeowners, identify potential down payment assistance sources, monitor ongoing affordability upon resale, and provide homeowner education and counseling is anticipated to contribute to the project’s success.
The design team of Di Cecco Architecture, Inc., McCarthy Companies, Encompass Consulting Group, and Pacific Coast Land Design have worked together for more than 20 years and have decades of experience. The contractor, McCarthy Companies, also has experience building in the City and is familiar with the local development code.
The various roles of the full development team are well defined. Collectively, they demonstrated expertise and experience designing and constructing high quality affordable housing and the capacity to successfully complete the development in a timely manner.
Preliminary Design Concept
PSHHC has proposed the construction of 78 attached for-sale townhomes on the Hillcrest Site, including 59 units which will be affordable to low-income households (80 percent area median income and below) and 19 units set aside for moderate income households (120 percent area median income). The proposal fulfills requirements of the Surplus Lands Act and the 45-year affordability covenants.
The preliminary site plan consists of 14 buildings, providing 4-6 attached townhomes per building (Exhibit A). Preliminary development amenities include all electric appliances, private 2-car garages, and private outdoor space. The common area will include walking paths, landscaped open space, and guest surface parking. The preliminary site-plan is sensitive to the single-family residences to the east by incorporating open space between townhomes and adjoining properties and will also include pedestrian-friendly orientation on both street frontages (Erbes Road and Hillcrest Drive).

3 Exhibit A. Preliminary Site Plan
Financial Structure and Capacity
To achieve affordability, PSHHC proposes the City donate the Hillcrest property to the HTFVC and its supporting non-profit HLTVC. PSHHC will collaborate with HTFVC to hold the land in fee title to maintain the affordability of the homes for generations. Ultimately, a ground lease will be converted into 99-year ground leases to the homeowners on a pro-rated basis.

3 Historically, PSHHC has identified multiple affordable housing funding sources at the state and local level. They intend to combine funding sources to make the development financially feasible. Their proposal includes a deferral of development impact fees, which may be returned if there is an unused contingency at the end of the project.
PSHHC owns and operates 50 affordable multifamily properties with $134 million in total assets and $75 million in net assets. Their financial and resource management experience are sound. The City’s consultant RSG, evaluated PSHHC’s financial pro-forma and determined the costs to be reasonable, including construction costs. Their proposal appears market-feasible with sound financial assumptions and contingencies.
Finance Audit Committee
On September 20, 2022, the Finance Audit Committee, made up of Mayor Engler and Councilmember Adam, convened and was presented information regarding the responses to the Hillcrest Affordable Housing RFP/Q. They concurred that PSHHC was the most qualified and experienced proposer, and that the City should select them to develop affordable housing at the Hillcrest Site.
Exclusive Negotiating Agreement
In addition to the selection of PSHHC as the developer for affordable housing at the Hillcrest Site, it is recommended that City Council authorize the City Manager to initiate the preparation of an Exclusive Negotiating Agreement (ENA) between the City and PSHHC. The ENA will establish a negotiating period, outline the timeline for the negotiations, and detail the rights and obligation of the parties.
During the exclusive negotiating period, the parties will complete their due diligence, refine the project, and negotiate an agreement for the transfer of the property and the ultimate development of the project. Preparation and negotiation of the ENA will commence following City Council authorization and would likely return to City Council for consideration/adoption in early 2023.
Summary
The City’s purchase of the Hillcrest Site provides an opportunity to collaborate with an affordable housing developer to construct much needed for-sale workforce/affordable housing in the community and will fulfill a FY 2022-23 City Council Priority. Selection of PSHHC as the developer for affordable housing at the Hillcrest Site and authorization for the City Manager to initiate negotiations for an ENA is recommended.

Item No.10A
TO:Andrew P. Powers, City Manager
FROM:Kelvin Parker, Community Development Director
DATE:November 1, 2022
SUBJECT: Inclusionary Housing Plan Update Parameters and Policy Direction
RECOMMENDATION:
Discuss and provide direction on inclusionary housing parameters for further analysis in the Inclusionary Housing Plan Update Financial Evaluation and find that this action is not a project as defined under the California Environmental Quality Act.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
No Additional Funding Requested. Minimal staff time required to prepare the report and $206,000 is included in the Adopted FY 2022-23 General Fund Budget for the inclusionary housing program and non-residential development linkage fee update consultant contract.
BACKGROUND:
On June 9, 2020, City Council directed staff and the Planning Commission to study and make recommendations to City Council on the inclusionary housing program and non-residential linkage fee ordinance updates.
On January 25, 2022, City Council adopted the 2021-2029 Housing Element, which includes many implementation actions, to address housing issues. To facilitate the development of affordable housing, Program 6 of the Housing Element contains an implementation objective that requires an update to the Inclusionary Housing Ordinance.
On April 26, 2022, City Council approved a Professional Services Agreement with Keyser Marston Associates, Inc., (KMA) for preparation of inclusionary housing program feasibility and non-residential linkage nexus analysis and fee studies in an amount of $206,000 with a term ending June 30, 2023. The contract not-to- exceed total includes $171,000 for base contract services and $35,000 for extra services.
Item No.10B
Inclusionary Housing Plan Update Parameters and Policy Direction November 1, 2022
4 3
1 Inclusionary Housing Ordinance History
Inclusionary housing describes a local government requirement that a specified percentage of new housing units be reserved for, and affordable to, lower and moderate-income households. The goal of inclusionary housing programs is to increase the supply of affordable housing commensurate with new market-rate development in a jurisdiction. This can result in improved regional jobs-housing balances and foster greater economic benefits and diversity within a community.
In 2008, the City adopted an inclusionary housing ordinance that requires a specified percentage of affordable units or payment of an in-lieu fee for certain residential development projects (Thousand Oaks Municipal Code Section 9-
10.301 et seq). This ordinance required that 10 percent of a for-sale, residential development of five or fewer dwelling units be available to moderate-income households or payment of specific fees.
In 2009, City Council set the in-lieu fee at zero, and therefore new projects are not required to provide a specified number of affordable units through this mechanism.
Before local agencies can adopt an in-lieu fee, a market analysis and feasibility study are necessary to inform the decision-making body what the market can feasibly accommodate and the appropriate amount to incentivize construction of affordable housing.
DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS:
The discussion before City Council is a step to understanding the parameters considered when updating the inclusionary housing plan and allows an opportunity for City Council to provide general policy direction for the preparation of the Inclusionary Housing Financial Evaluation analysis and recommendations. In preparation, staff solicits City Council to consider the legal landscape when providing direction to the consultant.
San Jose Case
The 2015 California Supreme Court ruling in the California Building Industry Association v. City of San Jose case found that Inclusionary Housing Programs are a planning tool and in-lieu optional fees are not subject to Nexus study under the Mitigation Fee Act. However, these programs must comply with the following criteria:
1. The requirements cannot be a physical taking or “Confiscatory”; and
2. The requirements cannot deprive a property owner of a fair and reasonable return on their investment.
Item No.10B
Inclusionary Housing Plan Update Parameters and Policy Direction November 1, 2022
4 3
1 The court did not provide criteria under which jurisdictions can determine whether proposed price controls are confiscatory, and/or they deprive a property owner of a fair and reasonable return. As such, jurisdictions need to develop their own methodology that includes interests of property owners, developers, and the jurisdiction’s housing needs. Any restrictions must be reasonably related to the broad general welfare purposes for which the ordinance is being enacted to achieve.
California Government Code Section 65583 (a)
This Housing Element law requires the City to analyze potential and actual constraints being placed on the development of housing. If the City chooses to impose a greater than 15 percent affordability requirement and/or a deeper affordability standard than 80 percent of Area Median Income (Low Income) on apartment development, the State Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) can require the City to demonstrate that the Inclusionary Housing requirement does not create a constraint to housing development.
In a technical guidance memorandum dated October 21, 2019, HCD reaffirmed its authority to review Inclusionary Housing ordinances as part of its review of a jurisdiction’s Housing Element. To that end, the requirements set forth within an Inclusionary Housing Program would only be anticipated to meet a small portion of the unmet need for affordable housing in Thousand Oaks. If the City were to adopt a program viewed as a constraint to housing, that could potentially extend and complicate the approval process for the City’s Sixth Cycle Housing Element.
Policy Issues for Consideration
As part of the presentation, City Council is requested to provide preferences related to the following:
1. What will be the minimum residential or mixed-use project size that will trigger the Inclusionary Housing requirements?
a. Applicability threshold possibilities:
i. Multi-Family Development: 5 units or more
ii. Townhomes and Condominiums: 10 units or more
iii. Single-Family Development: 20 units or more
2. What target income and affordability standards should be applied? a. Standard possibilities for discussion:
i. Low-income for rental development. Note that Very Low-income may be viewed as a constraint by HCD if not financially feasible. Density Bonus projects present the best opportunity for Very Low-income units. ii. Moderate-income for ownership.
Item No.10B
Inclusionary Housing Plan Update Parameters and Policy Direction November 1, 2022
4 3
1 3. What options should be applied for the Inclusionary Housing requirements? In considering these options, there must be at least one alternative other than on-site production.
a. Providing the Inclusionary Units within the market rate project. b. Priority for production of affordable units within multi-family developments. c. Production of the Inclusionary Units in an off-site location. i. This option would require secure entitlements for the off-site affordable housing, which presents construction timing and financing issues. High land values and limited site availability make this difficult to achieve. ii. Challenge in providing units comparable to market rate project. iii. Affordable units should be in proximity to market rate project/higher resource areas and not be over concentrated in a neighborhood. d. A payment to the City in lieu of producing required Inclusionary Units.
Direction on applicability if a fee were to be adopted:
i. Multi-Family Development: Projects less than 10 units could have an in- lieu fee option due to smaller number of market rate units to cover affordability gap.
ii. Require projects of 10 units or more to construct inclusionary units.
Possibly allow an in-lieu fee that would be demonstrated through extreme economic hardship, which would be based on a definition and findings within future ordinance.
iii. Townhouse and Single-Family Development: Allows fee to be applied to very low- and low-income units.
e. Dedication of land to the City for the subsequent development of the required Inclusionary Units.
f. The acquisition and rehabilitation of existing apartment units.
KMA will present additional factors for City Council consideration when providing the direction on the basic parameters for financial feasibility evaluation. KMA will facilitate discussion of the parameters to be set, such as percentage affordable, level of affordability, in lieu fee amounts, etc., and describe the various ranges and implications for those parameters. As reference, a survey of other municipalities that have inclusionary ordinances is included (Attachment #1) to demonstrate the different parameters and ranges currently being implemented throughout the state, and this information will be discussed during the presentation. The goal of the discussion is for City Council to provide the preferred parameters for KMA to conduct a financial evaluation to test the feasibility of those levels.
