[M. Ott] Summary: Over the past two years, the City of Tulare Fire Department (TFD) has responded to a large number of structure fires in the city where there were no working alarms in the residences, causing great concern for life safety.
TFD is poised to launch a comprehensive public safety campaign, over the next 24 months or less, that includes a free door-to-door installation program for smoke alarms and combination smoke/carbon monoxide alarms. The program's primary focus is to reach older adults (>65 y/o), children (<14 y/o), and underserved low-income families to prevent death and injuries caused by residential structure fires and carbon monoxide poisoning. Tulare firefighters and fire prevention personnel will perform the installation work, and home visits will include alarm installations per building codes and direct education to residents. The goal is to purchase approximately 3,000 smoke and 3,000 smoke/carbon dioxide combination detectors to support this campaign.
The City of Tulare and (TFD) has been awarded the 2023 FEMA Fire Prevention and Safety (FP&S) Grants funds of $163,714.28. The city has a match of $8,185.72 to complete the project. The total project cost is $171,900 and could impact approximately 18,000 residents. This equates to an average cost of $9.55 per resident. Dividing this amount over the expected 10-year life of the alarms, it works out to $0.96 per resident per year.
TFD will utilize expenditure account 001-4230-5702 2015 FP&S Grant Supplies to execute this project.
Fiscal Impact & Funding Source(s): Funds are appropriated and available in the above expenditure accounts.
Legal Review: This item does not require legal review.
Alternative Action: 1) Approve with changes; 2) Deny; or 3) Table.

7.4 On-Call Cybersecurity Consultant Contract.
Recommended Action: Approve a pre-qualified consultant for on-call cybersecurity consulting services; and authorize the City Manager to enter into a professional services contract, subject only to minor conforming and clarifying changes acceptable to the City Attorney and City Manager, with Securance Consulting of Tampa Florida, for a period of one year with two annual renewals available. [J. Bowling] Summary: On May 7, 2024, a Request for Qualifications (RFQ) 24-801 for on-call cybersecurity consulting services was issued. Seven firms submitted proposals, to be considered to provide services. Based upon the procedures identified in the City’s adopted Purchasing Policy 15-04 and the requirements of the California Government Code, Chapter 10, Section 4526 for the selection of professional service contracts, the proposals were reviewed and rated in accordance with the consultant selection procedures identified in the RFQ. Consultant proposals were evaluated based upon their demonstrated competence and their professional qualifications necessary for the performance of the services required. Based on anticipated the volume of work, a single firm has been selected.
Securance Consulting has been providing cybersecurity consulting services for over 22 years and has significant experience providing services to local government agencies.
Staff is proposed that the City enter into a contract agreement for on-call services with Securance Consulting for a period of one year with two (2) annual renewals available based upon satisfactory performance. Hourly rates and conditions are agreed upon up front, then as specific scopes of work are developed for each project, cost proposals will be submitted for review and approval.
Fiscal Impact & Funding Source(s): Authorized expenditures under the contract shall not exceed the amount authorized under the City Council’s adopted purchasing policy and shall be approved by the City Manager or designee in accordance with the approved budgets.
Legal Review: This is a standard On-Call Services contract and has been reviewed by the City Attorney.
Alternative Action: 1) Approve with changes; 2) Deny; or 3) Table.
7.5 Amendment to the Position Control Budget and Salary Schedule.
Recommended Action: Adopt a resolution amending the City’s Non-Utility Position Control Budget (PCB) to reflect an additional position and correct an item on the salary schedule. [S. Oneal]
Summary: The City Manager has continued to analyze staffing levels and the structure of the organization. Over the next couple of months, several changes will be recommended to the City Council that will include additional positions, position reclassifications, and a slight reorganization. The proposed changes will continue the efforts toward achieving long term financial sustainability, addressing strategic priorities, investing in our future, and better meeting the needs and expectations of our citizens.
This item represents the first recommended adjustment.
Tulare City Council Page 4 of 13
Agenda Memo - August 20, 2024
The City’s primary continued focus remains on emphasizing economic development to increase revenue to support growing City needs and to achieve financial sustainability.
The City’s current Economic Development consists of one individual (Director Traci Myers). As economic development tasks expand exponentially, staff recommends an additional position allocation for a Senior Management Analyst (Economic Development) to be added to the PCB. This position will be responsible for coordinating an enhanced citywide economic development incentive program and be responsible for establishing relationships with new potential development partners.
Unrelated to the above PCB addition/recommended changes, it was noted that the newly approved Budget Finance Manager monthly salary needs to be adjusted from $6,933.72-$8,427.99 to $7,324.78-$8,903.32. This amount was included in the budget and was inadvertently listed incorrectly on the salary schedule.
Fiscal Impact & Funding Source(s): This appropriation requires the use of General Fund unassigned fund balance of approximately $122,344 for the Senior Management Analyst salary and benefits. The slight modification for the Budget Finance Manager was already included in the budget and no additional funding is needed.
Legal Review: This item does not require legal review.
Alternative Action: 1) Approve with changes; 2) Deny; or 3) Table.
7.6 Acceptance and Appropriation of a Federal Earmark.
Recommended Action: Adopt a resolution 1) authorizing the City Manager or his designee to accept a federal earmark of $500,000, awarded through the Consolidated Appropriations Act of 2023, to fund a portion of the construction of a water main connection across Highway 99 from Gem Street to the Corvina Avenue alignment west of Retherford Street; 2) authorizing the City Manager or his designee to execute all necessary documents for allocation of grant funds; and 3) establishing General Fund CIP Fund (Fund 601) appropriation(s) totaling $500,000 and a corresponding revenue budget for Project WT0055 – Hwy 99 Water Crossing. [M. Gaboardi] Summary: Congress appropriates resources in the form of discretionary funding to specific entities for projects that benefit the communities they represent through Congressionally Directed Spending (CDS) and Community Project Funding (CPF) items (Community Grants) identified in appropriation acts. This funding provides investment in a wide variety of projects such as housing, homelessness prevention, workforce training, public facilities, parks, resilience planning, and other critical infrastructure and services. Funding resulting from these appropriations is administered through the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
The City of Tulare submitted a federal appropriation request to the office of Senator Feinstein (with subsequent support from Senator Padilla) for a CPF grant to assist in funding City capital improvement program (CIP) Project WT0055 – Hwy 99 Water Crossing. This project will construct a water main connection across Highway 99 from Gem Street to the Corvina Avenue alignment west of Retherford Street. A water main connection in this vicinity is identified in the City’s Water Master Plan and is necessary Tulare City Council Page 5 of 13
Agenda Memo - August 20, 2024
for the continued development of a looped water system providing sufficient and reliable water distribution to the surrounding area.
In March of 2023, staff received notification that the City’s appropriation request had been approved and incorporated into the Consolidated Appropriations Act of 2023 as a Community Grant (CPF) funded project. The subject resolution authorizes acceptance of the funds, designation of signature authority, and appropriation of the funds.
Fiscal Impact & Funding Source(s): A minimum twenty percent non-federal cost share (local match) is required for the project. The project construction estimate is $1,700,000. With grant funding of $500,000, the City’s estimated local cost share for construction will be $1,200,000, which exceeds the minimum $100,000 non-federal cost share requirement. The sources of the local matching funds for the project are a combination of Water Category Development Impact Fees and Water CIP funds as detailed in the attached project sheet.
Legal Review: The City Attorney’s Office will review any agreements or non-standard documentation the City is required to execute to obtain the grant funding.
Alternative Action: 1) Approve with changes; 2) Deny; or 3) Table.

8.1 Water, Wastewater, and Storm Drain Master Plan.
Recommended Action: Receive a presentation on the Water, Wastewater, and Storm Drain Master Plan dated June 2024. [T. Whitfield]
Summary: In October 2022, the Board of Public Utilities Commissioners (BPU) approved a contract with Carollo Engineers for engineering services for the preparation of the Water, Sewer (Wastewater), and Storm Drain Master Plan. The last utility master plans were adopted in 2009; therefore, this has been quite a task due to the complexity of the City’s infrastructure and the massive amount of data and information collected and analyzed over the course of the past year. Preparation of the master plans included the evaluation and creation of capital improvement plans needed to meet both existing and future infrastructure demands within city limits and the urban development boundary.
Carollo presented the proposed capital improvement plans at a Board meeting on March 21, 2024, which included a detailed list of projects which were separated out by service (water, sewer, storm drain) and maps identifying the improvements. The detailed sheets also distinguished if the projects were needed for existing infrastructure or if they were for future development. On June 6, 2024, Carollo presented the draft of the Water, Wastewater, and Storm Drain Master Plan and the BPU adopted the Plan at a regular meeting on July 18, 2024.
The Master Plan includes:
Tulare City Council Page 6 of 13
Agenda Memo - August 20, 2024
1. An inventory of all existing water, sewer, and storm drain facilities.
2. Review and update of the City’s water, sewer and storm drain facilities.
3. Analysis of the existing systems to determine existing deficiencies and proposed remedial actions.
4. A master plan of future water, sewer and storm drain facilities in currently undeveloped areas and consistent with the Urban Development Boundaries (UDB) of the General Plan.
5. Preparation of capital improvement programs for water, sewer, and storm drain improvements including cost estimates and short/long term needs.
The Executive Summary of the Master Plan is attached. City staff has reviewed said document and found it to be complete and accurate. Tim Loper from Carollo Engineers will give a presentation of the Water, Wastewater, and Storm Drain Master Plan.

8.4 Parking in Single-Family Residential Zones.
Recommended Action: Provide direction to staff regarding the adequacy of the existing requirements in the City’s Municipal Code and procedures for non-compliance regarding parking in single-family residential zones, and/or direction on any proposed revisions to various sections of the Code. [M. Anaya]
Summary: Council previously requested to add an agenda item for discussion on current Tulare Municipal Code (Code) requirements for parking in single-family residential zones, meaning residential properties in the city for single detached houses, in contrast to multi-family residential zones consisting of attached apartments on the same property.
Staff and Council have received complaints regarding properties throughout the city developed with a house and having multiple vehicles parked, not only in the driveway, compliant with the city’s Code, but also obstructing and parking on sidewalks and along a large segment of the curb, beyond the house, creating potentially hazardous conditions for pedestrians using the sidewalk and bicyclists using the bicycle lanes adjacent to the curb.
Currently, the following chapters and sections of the Code address current residential parking requirements and policies in the city. The referenced sections are attached to this staff report, and relevant sections summarized below. • Chapter 7.28 addresses nuisances generally, with Sections 7.28.030(P)(5)(c) and 7.28.030(P)(5)(d) specifically addressing parking of operable vehicles and abandoned inoperative vehicles respectively.
• Section 9.48.160(A) addresses vehicles parked on a public street for 72 or more consecutive hours.
• Section 10.32.060(I)(1) provides the requirements for off-street parking in a single-family residential zone, as follows:
o “For single-family dwellings, a minimum of two covered parking spaces shall be provided on-site. Each space shall measure a minimum of nine feet in width and 20 feet in depth. All parking spaces and driveways shall be surfaced with asphalt concrete, chip seal or other suitable all-weather surfacing. Where a carport or garage is open to a public street, a driveway length of at least 20 feet shall be provided between the parking structure.” Currently, the City’s Code Enforcement Division provides enforcement for noncompliance of any vehicles declared a nuisance and parked on private property, typically on the driveway or in the front yard on an unapproved surface. The City’s Police Department currently provides enforcement for non-compliance of any vehicles declared a nuisance or safety hazard when located on public right-of-way, such as on sidewalks or parked on the street.

Agenda Memo - August 20, 2024

Summary: Councilmember Harrell submitted a request for a future agenda item for the Council to consider the naming of an identified intersection in memory of Navy Hospitalman Leonard Long who was killed in Vietnam in 1968. On August 6, Council agreed to have this item added to a future agenda for discussion.
The City has an adopted Street Naming policy which addresses the criteria and procedures for the honorary naming and renaming of intersections. An excerpt of the policy is provided below.
2.4. Criteria for the Honorary Naming or Renaming of Intersections
2.4.1. The City Council may name street intersections or sections of streets not exceeding one block in length in honor and recognition of individuals or organizations that are of particular importance to the City of Tulare or have made significant contributions to improving the quality of life in the City. The honorary naming of intersections under this policy section is separate and distinct from the process for naming or renaming streets provided by this Policy and shall not replace, supersede, or otherwise affect existing names of streets.
2.4.2. Recognition with an honorary intersection title shall be reserved for those individuals and organizations that have performed an exemplary act or achievement of lasting interest to their community, which reflects positively on the City of Tulare as a whole, and:
Tulare City Council Page 10 of 13
Agenda Memo - August 20, 2024
2.4.2.1. if an individual is a resident or a native of the City or is of particular importance to the City; or
2.4.2.2. if an organization has been in operation for a minimum of 25 consecutive years and has its base of operations in the City or is of particular importance to the City.
2.5. Procedures for the Honorary Naming or Renaming of Intersections
2.5.1. Honorary intersection titles shall be conferred by Council resolution. No more than two honorary intersection titles may be conferred for each councilmember per term in office. Individuals and organizations eligible for recognition shall be sponsored by a councilmember, who shall demonstrate that the proposed honoree has sufficient community support. Evidence of such support includes an affirmative vote of the Planning Commission, written support from community leaders, or citizen petition.
2.5.2. The sponsoring councilmember will work with the Community and Economic Development Department in locating an appropriate section of City street or intersection for the honorary intersection title. The intersection or street section shall not exceed one block and not overlap a street section or intersection with another honorary title. Records of the honorary intersection titles are to be maintained by the Community and Economic Development Department.
2.5.3. Funding for the installation of honorary intersection title signs shall be the responsibility of the sponsoring councilmember. The councilmember shall identify, obtain, and make such funds available to the Community and Economic Development Department.
If Council determines this request falls in line with the adopted Street Naming policy and sufficient evidence of community support has been provided, Council may adopt the attached resolution approving the naming of the intersection. Councilmember Harrell will then work with staff to complete the process.
Fiscal Impact & Funding Source(s): Funding for the intersection signs will be identified by the sponsoring councilmember.
Legal Review: This item does not require legal review.

8.7 American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) Fund Allocation.
Recommended Action: Receive a presentation on the status of American Rescue Plan Act fund expenditures and direct staff to re-allocate all funds available after the completion of projects toward the construction of the Emergency Shelter. [J. McDonnell] Summary: The City of Tulare received $18,024,068 in ARPA funds from the federal government. Over the past several years, the City Council has appropriated these funds to a variety of projects as follows:
Project/Program Amount
ARPA Consultant $75,000
Marketing and Social Media $75,000
Set aside for ongoing Pandemic Response $50,000
Courthouse Remodel $1,300,000
Downtown Façade/Rehabilitation Grant $1,000,000
Downtown Master Plan Update $100,000
Homeless Shelter $2,000,000
Zumwalt Park Refurbishment $5,000,000
Vaccination Incentive $220,000

Tulare Joint Union High School – 50M Pool $500,000
City Council Service Projects $942,268
Total Allocation $18,024,068
As Council is aware, all of the amounts identified above must be under contract by December 31, 2024. The vast majority of these monies are already under contract or will soon be. This agenda item provides Council with financial updates on all of the items above with an emphasis on their progress towards expending the allocated funds.
Several of the ARPA-funded projects are now complete, but not all of the originally appropriated funds were expended. Thus, a re-allocation of these monies is necessary to ensure that all ARPA funds have been appropriated and are under contract by December 31, 2024, as required by Federal law.
The table of Projects has been expanded below to provide Council with a “snapshot” of amounts that have been expended to-date by project, whether projects are complete or Tulare City Council Page 12 of 13

As indicated in the table above, approximately $317,000 is available for re-allocation to other uses. In addition, there is a chance that an alternate funding source may be found for the Highway 99 Water Crossing project, thus freeing up an additional $1,200,000 in ARPA funding.
Given that the proposed Homeless Shelter is projected to have a $10,000,000 construction cost, of which approximately $3,500,000 would be borne by the City’s General Fund Reserves, staff recommends that all existing and future ARPA monies that become available for re-allocation be directed to the Homeless Shelter allocation, to continue to offset that project’s General Fund Reserve cost to the City.
Fiscal Impact & Funding Source(s): If the recommended action above is approved by the City Council, the General Fund Reserve obligation to the construction of the proposed Emergency Shelter would be reduced by the amount equivalent to the savings experienced from closed ARPA projects that didn’t use their fully appropriated amounts (currently estimated at $317,000).
Legal Review: This item does not require legal review.

Agenda Title: Acceptance of FEMA Fire Prevention and Safety (FP&S) Grants
RECOMMENDED ACTION
Accept the 2023 FEMA Fire Prevention and Safety (FP&S) Grants funds of $163,714.28; and authorize the City Manager, or designee, to purchase smoke and CO2 detectors for a citywide safety campaign.
SUMMARY
Over the past two years, the City of Tulare Fire Department (TFD) has responded to a large number of structure fires in the city where there were no working alarms in the residences, causing great concern for life safety.
TFD is poised to launch a comprehensive public safety campaign, over the next 24 months or less, that includes a free door-to-door installation program for smoke alarms and combination smoke/carbon monoxide alarms. The program's primary focus is to reach older adults (>65 y/o), children (<14 y/o), and underserved low-income families to prevent death and injuries caused by residential structure fires and carbon monoxide poisoning. Tulare firefighters and fire prevention personnel will perform the installation work, and home visits will include alarm installations per building codes and direct education to residents. The goal is to purchase approximately 3,000 smoke and 3,000 smoke/carbon dioxide combination detectors to support this campaign.
The City of Tulare and (TFD) has been awarded the 2023 FEMA Fire Prevention and Safety (FP&S) Grants funds of $163,714.28. The city has a match of $8,185.72 to complete the project.
The total project cost is $171,900 and could impact approximately 18,000 residents. This equates to an average cost of $9.55 per resident. Dividing this amount over the expected 10- year life of the alarms, it works out to $0.96 per resident per year.
TFD will utilize expenditure account 001-4230-5702 2015 FP&S Grant Supplies to execute this project.
FISCAL IMPACT & FUNDING SOURCES
Funds are appropriated and available in the above expenditure accounts.

Staff Report
Meeting: City Council
Date: August 20, 2024
Department: Human Resources
Submitted by: Shonna Oneal, Human Resources Director
Agenda Title: Amendment to the Position Control Budget and Salary Schedule
RECOMMENDED ACTION
Adopt a resolution amending the City’s Non-Utility Position Control Budget (PCB) to reflect an additional position and correct an item on the salary schedule.
SUMMARY
The City Manager has continued to analyze staffing levels and the structure of the organization.
Over the next couple of months, several changes will be recommended to the City Council that will include additional positions, position reclassifications, and a slight reorganization. The proposed changes will continue the efforts toward achieving long term financial sustainability, addressing strategic priorities, investing in our future, and better meeting the needs and expectations of our citizens. This item represents the first recommended adjustment.
The City’s primary continued focus remains on emphasizing economic development to increase revenue to support growing City needs and to achieve financial sustainability. The City’s current Economic Development consists of one individual (Director Traci Myers). As economic development tasks expand exponentially, staff recommends an additional position allocation for a Senior Management Analyst (Economic Development) to be added to the PCB. This position will be responsible for coordinating an enhanced citywide economic development incentive program and be responsible for establishing relationships with new potential development partners.
Unrelated to the above PCB addition/recommended changes, it was noted that the newly approved Budget Finance Manager monthly salary needs to be adjusted from $6,933.72- $8,427.99 to $7,324.78-$8,903.32. This amount was included in the budget and was inadvertently listed incorrectly on the salary schedule.
FISCAL IMPACT & FUNDING SOURCES
This appropriation requires the use of General Fund unassigned fund balance of approximately $122,344 for the Senior Management Analyst salary and benefits. The slight modification for the Budget Finance Manager was already included in the budget and no additional funding is needed.
LEGAL REVIEW
This item does not require legal review.

Meeting: City Council
Date: August 20, 2024
Department: Finance
Submitted by: Melanie Gaboardi, Assistant Finance Director Agenda Title: Acceptance and Appropriation of a Federal Earmark
RECOMMENDED ACTION
Adopt a resolution 1) authorizing the City Manager or his designee to accept a federal earmark of $500,000, awarded through the Consolidated Appropriations Act of 2023, to fund a portion of the construction of a water main connection across Highway 99 from Gem Street to the Corvina Avenue alignment west of Retherford Street; 2) authorizing the City Manager or his designee to execute all necessary documents for allocation of grant funds; and 3) establishing General Fund CIP Fund (Fund 601) appropriation(s) totaling $500,000 and a corresponding revenue budget for Project WT0055 – Hwy 99 Water Crossing.
SUMMARY
Congress appropriates resources in the form of discretionary funding to specific entities for projects that benefit the communities they represent through Congressionally Directed Spending (CDS) and Community Project Funding (CPF) items (Community Grants) identified in appropriation acts. This funding provides investment in a wide variety of projects such as housing, homelessness prevention, workforce training, public facilities, parks, resilience planning, and other critical infrastructure and services. Funding resulting from these appropriations is administered through the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
The City of Tulare submitted a federal appropriation request to the office of Senator Feinstein (with subsequent support from Senator Padilla) for a CPF grant to assist in funding City capital improvement program (CIP) Project WT0055 – Hwy 99 Water Crossing. This project will construct a water main connection across Highway 99 from Gem Street to the Corvina Avenue alignment west of Retherford Street. A water main connection in this vicinity is identified in the City’s Water Master Plan and is necessary for the continued development of a looped water system providing sufficient and reliable water distribution to the surrounding area.
In March of 2023, staff received notification that the City’s appropriation request had been approved and incorporated into the Consolidated Appropriations Act of 2023 as a Community Grant (CPF) funded project. The subject resolution authorizes acceptance of the funds, designation of signature authority, and appropriation of the funds.
FISCAL IMPACT & FUNDING SOURCE(S)
A minimum twenty percent non-federal cost share (local match) is required for the project. The project construction estimate is $1,700,000. With grant funding of $500,000, the City’s estimated local cost share for construction will be $1,200,000, which exceeds the minimum $100,000 nonfederal cost share requirement. The sources of the local matching funds for the project are a combination of Water Category Development Impact Fees and Water CIP funds as detailed in the attached project sheet.

Agenda Title: Water, Wastewater and Storm Drain Master Plan
RECOMMENDED ACTION
Receive a presentation on the Water, Wastewater, and Storm Drain Master Plan dated June 2024.
SUMMARY
In October 2022, the Board of Public Utilities Commissioners (BPU) approved a contract with Carollo Engineers for engineering services for the preparation of the Water, Sewer (Wastewater), and Storm Drain Master Plan. The last utility master plans were adopted in 2009; therefore, this has been quite a task due to the complexity of the City’s infrastructure and the massive amount of data and information collected and analyzed over the course of the past year.
Preparation of the master plans included the evaluation and creation of capital improvement plans needed to meet both existing and future infrastructure demands within city limits and the urban development boundary.
Carollo presented the proposed capital improvement plans at a Board meeting on March 21, 2024, which included a detailed list of projects which were separated out by service (water, sewer, storm drain) and maps identifying the improvements. The detailed sheets also distinguished if the projects were needed for existing infrastructure or if they were for future development. On June 6, 2024, Carollo presented the draft of the Water, Wastewater, and Storm Drain Master Plan and the BPU adopted the Plan at a regular meeting on July 18, 2024.
The Master Plan includes:
1. An inventory of all existing water, sewer, and storm drain facilities.
2. Review and update of the City’s water, sewer and storm drain facilities.
3. Analysis of the existing systems to determine existing deficiencies and proposed remedial actions.
4. A master plan of future water, sewer and storm drain facilities in currently undeveloped areas and consistent with the Urban Development Boundaries (UDB) of the General Plan.
5. Preparation of capital improvement programs for water, sewer, and storm drain improvements including cost estimates and short/long term needs.
The Executive Summary of the Master Plan is attached. City staff has reviewed said document and found it to be complete and accurate. Tim Loper from Carollo Engineers will give a presentation of the Water, Wastewater, and Storm Drain Master Plan.
FISCAL IMPACT & FUNDING SOURCE(S)
There is no fiscal impact associated with the adoption of the Master Plan. Capital improvement projects will be brought back to the City Council and Board of Public Utilities as needed and through the bi-annual Capital Improvement Program Budget process.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
This Executive Summary presents a brief background of the City of Tulare (City’s) water distribution, wastewater collection, and storm drainage systems. It also describes the need for the Water, Wastewater, and Storm Drain Master Plan Update (Master Plan Update) and the proposed improvements to mitigate system deficiencies and serve future customers. A summary of capital improvement project costs is also included.
ES.1 Introduction
The purpose of the Master Plan Update is to update the previous master plans, conduct an analysis of the City’s water supplies, to identify capacity deficiencies in the water, wastewater, and storm drainage systems, to develop feasible alternatives to correct these deficiencies, and to plan the infrastructure that will serve future growth within the Urban Development Boundary (UDB).
The City approved a professional service agreement with Carollo Engineers, Inc. (Carollo), to prepare the Master Plan Update. The professional services agreement included the following main tasks:
Task 1 – Project Management and Meetings.
Task 2 – Data Collection and Document Review.
Task 3 – Sanitary Sewer Master Plan Update.
Task 4 – Water Master Plan Update.
Task 5 – Storm Drain Master Plan Update.
Task 6 – Stormwater Resource Plan (documented separately).
ES.2 Study Area
The City manages its water supply and distribution, wastewater collection and treatment, and storm drainage systems for its customers within the City limits. The City also provides potable water to the Matheny Tract development as well as a portion of Soults MWC customers.
The City’s most recent General Plan was adopted in October 2014. The City limits and Urban Development Boundary (UDB), as established from the City’s land use diagram, are 20 square miles (13,079 acres) and 37 square miles (23,607 acres), respectively. The current City limits and UDB are shown on Figure ES.1. The study area boundary for this master plan is the UDB.
ES.2.1 Planning Period
This Master Plan Update is intended to serve as a guiding document for the planning and implementation of water, sewer, and storm drainage system improvements to accommodate future growth through buildout. The planning horizon is consistent with the City's General Plan. The land use included in the General Plan are summarized in Chapter 2 and set the foundation for the water demand projections, wastewater flow projections, and future stormwater runoff. Because the UDB (area outside the City limits)

CITY OF TULARE
WATER, WASTEWATER, AND STORM DRAIN MASTER PLAN UPDATES ES-2 adds a significant amount of area to the City’s existing water, wastewater, and storm drain systems, the following scenarios have been established in order to evaluate the future system:
Buildout of City limits: This includes the development of vacant infill within the City limits as well as the planned developments. This also includes the Altura CUP 2018-11, Cordeniz Subdivision, and Fulton Estates planned developments that occur outside the City limits. Buildout of UDB: This includes complete buildout of the study area.
ES.2.2 Future Growth
Future growth within the study area is grouped into one of the following categories:
Matheny Tract. The Matheny Tract has an existing population of 1,137 and is planned to be connected to the City’s wastewater collection system within 5-10 years. This will increase the wastewater flows to the City’s collection system. The City already provides water to the Matheny Tract.
The population of this area is not expected to increase, therefore there is no additional impact on the City’s water distribution system.
Planned Developments. City staff identified specific planned developments that are planned to be developed in the near future. The planned developments are expected to add 4,558 residential units,
67.8 acres of commercial area, 36 acres of industrial area, 5.7 acres of public use, and 14.1 acres of open space/parks.
Vacant Infill Within City Limits. For the purposes of this Master Plan Update, infill is defined as development of existing vacant parcels that lie within the City limits, that were not already part of a planned development. There are a total of 1,574 acres of vacant infill that were not already included in a planned development, with nearly half being zoned for industrial use. Urban Development Boundary. Ultimate buildout of the study area includes the development of the parcels outside the City limits, also known as the UDB. UDB parcels that overlapped with a planned development were not included in the UDB growth. There are a total of 6,516 acres of UDB parcels, with a majority zoned for either single family (33 percent) or Village (26 percent).
The future growth components are discussed in more detail in Chapter 2. Water demand and wastewater flow projections for the future growth areas are summarized in Section ES.3 and discussed in more detail in Chapter 4.

WATER, WASTEWATER, AND STORM DRAIN MASTER PLAN UPDATES ES-5 ES.3 Water Demands and Wastewater Flows
This section summarizes the City’s existing and future water demands and wastewater flows. More detailed information on the historical water demands and wastewater flows, as well as the methodology and assumptions used to estimate the projected water demands and wastewater flows is included in Chapter 4.
ES.3.1 Potable Water Demands
Table ES.1 summarizes the existing and projected water demands. As shown, with the development of the City limits (and several planned developments outside the City limits), the City’s average day demand (ADD) is expected to increase by 32 percent (from 14.9 mgd to 19.6 mgd). With the development of the UDB, the water demand is expected to nearly double (compared to existing) to 28.8 mgd ADD. The City is projected to see a maximum day demand (MDD) of 36.7 mgd when built out to the City limits and
53.9 mgd when built out to the UDB limits.

(2) PHD/MDD peaking factor = 1.4.
(3) Existing ADD based on 5-year historical average.
ES.3.2 Wastewater Flows
Table ES.2 summarizes the existing and projected wastewater flows through UDB buildout. The average dry weather flow (ADWF) is the base sanitary flows generated from the existing and future customers within the study area. The peak wet weather flow (PWWF) is the highest observed hourly flow that occurs following a design storm event (discussed in Chapter 3). Wet weather inflow and infiltration (I/I), which occurs during and after rainfall events, increases flows in the collection system. The existing and future PWWF was derived based on the hydraulic model results. This was accomplished by routing a 10-year, 24- hour design storm through the hydraulic model under existing and future conditions.

JUNE 2024 / FINAL / CAROLLO
CITY OF TULARE
WATER, WASTEWATER, AND STORM DRAIN MASTER PLAN UPDATES ES-6 As shown in Table ES.2, with the development of the City limits (and several planned developments outside the City limits), the City’s ADWF is expected to increase by 30 percent (from 11.5 mgd to
15.0 mgd). With the development of the UDB, the ADWF is expected to increase by 76 (compared to existing) to 20.2 mgd. The City is projected to see a PWWF of 33.5 mgd when built out to the City limits and 47.4 mgd when built out to the UDB limits. The City’s PWWF to ADWF peaking factor is projected to decrease from roughly 2.7 to 2.4. It is typical for future peaking factors to be lower than existing conditions, which is due in part to several factors. First, new sewers tend to have less inflow and infiltration (I/I), primarily due to better construction methods. Future growth areas also tend to be denser than existing developments, leading to less area contributing to I/I (as compared to the dry weather flow added). Furthermore, flow attenuation also tends to dampen out flow peaks as collection systems expand.
ES.4 Water, Wastewater, and Storm Drainage Systems and Hydraulic Models
This section summarizes the existing water distribution, wastewater collection, and storm drainage systems. It also summarizes the development of hydraulic models of each system.
ES.4.1 Existing Water, Wastewater, and Storm Drainage Systems Overview The City’s potable water distribution system consists of 22 supply wells, four storage tanks, three booster pump stations, and approximately 273 miles of water main, ranging in size from 1 inch to 16 inches in diameter. As the topography of the City is relatively flat, the distribution system consists of one main pressure zone.
The City's wastewater collection system consists of 263 miles of gravity sewers ranging in diameter from 4 to 42 inches, 15 lift stations and associated force mains, and two wastewater treatment plants. The City’s collection system is divided into a domestic system and industrial system, each of which convey flow to a dedicated WWTP: the Domestic WWTP (D-WWTP) or Industrial WWTP (I-WWTP). The industrial collection system serves a majority of the City’s Significant Industrial Users (SIUs). There are several non-industrial customers that discharge to the industrial system as well as several smaller industrial customers that discharge to the domestic system. There is also at least one cross connection between the domestic and industrial systems.
The current storm drainage system in the City gathers and channels surface water runoff to 46 City-owned stormwater basins (28 retention basins and 18 detention basins) and 28 pump stations. These basins either retain the water or release it to facilities owned by the Tulare Irrigation District (TID), where applicable. This drainage system encompasses various components like neighborhood collection systems, detention and retention basins, pump stations, and storm drains. Stormwater disposal is achieved through percolation or discharge into TID pipelines, canals, and ditches, as allowed by an agreement between TID and the City. The City storm drain outfalls serve as discharge points for stormwater, which is released either automatically or after major storm events with TID's approval, depending on the specific pump station.

WATER, WASTEWATER, AND STORM DRAIN MASTER PLAN UPDATES ES-7 ES.4.2 Water, Wastewater, and Storm Drainage System Hydraulic Models Three separate hydraulic models were utilized for the analysis of the water distribution, wastewater collection, and storm drainage systems. A summary of the hydraulic model updates is provided below.
Additional details regarding the model updates, including calibration of the water and sewer models, are provided in Chapter 5 of this Master Plan Update.
Water Distribution System Model. The City’s water distribution system hydraulic model was converted to InfoWater Pro, developed by Innovyze. The distribution system hydraulic model was updated based on the City’s most recent Geographic Information Systems (GIS) database. Operational information, such as pump controls were updated based on information provided by the City. The water demands were also updated based on recent water billing records provided by the City. The City’s water distribution system hydraulic model was calibrated using a three-step process that included a macro calibration, a fire flow test calibration, and a 24-hour extended period simulation (EPS) calibration. Model calibration is discussed in more detail in Chapter 5. The calibrated model was used for the distribution system analysis (presented in Chapter 6). Wastewater Collection System Model. The City’s wastewater collection system hydraulic model was converted to the InfoSWMM software, developed by Innovyze. The wastewater collection system hydraulic model was updated based on the City’s most recent GIS database. Operational information, such as pump curves and wet well level settings, were updated based on information provided by the City. Dry weather loads were then updated based on recent water billing data received by the City and adjusted during model calibration. The hydraulic model was calibrated to dry and wet weather flow conditions using data collected from a temporary flow monitoring program. Model calibration is discussed in more detail in Chapter 5. The calibrated model was used for the wastewater collection system analysis (presented in Chapter 6).
Storm Drainage Collection System Hydraulic and Hydrologic Model. The City’s storm drainage system hydraulic and hydrologic model was converted to the InfoSWMM software, developed by Innovyze. Hydrologic analysis of the City’s storm drainage system was performed using the SWMM Runoff Block, which is included in the InfoSWMM modeling software. Physical and operational data, such as outfall hydraulic grade assumption, detention basin information, open channel hydraulic parameters, and other special features, were input manually into the model based on available information. The storm drainage system model was used for the storm drainage system analysis (presented in Chapter 6).
ES.5 Water, Wastewater, and Storm Drainage System Improvements This section discusses the proposed projects that correct capacity deficiencies and serve future users.
Detailed criteria used to evaluate the performance of the water, wastewater, and storm drainage systems are provided in Chapter 3.
ES.5.1 Water Distribution System Improvements
Following model calibration, a capacity analysis of the existing and future distribution system was performed. Figure ES.2 provides a graphical illustration of the improvements recommended to address the existing and future supply, storage, and capacity deficiencies.

WATER, WASTEWATER, AND STORM DRAIN MASTER PLAN UPDATES ES-8 users within the City limits (shown in orange), and improvements to serve future users within the UDB (shown in purple). Also shown on Figure ES.2 are the recommended tanks and wells to serve existing future customers. A description of the recommended improvement projects is provided in Chapter 6.
ES.5.2 Wastewater Collection System Evaluation and Proposed Improvements Following the dry and wet weather flow calibration, a capacity analysis of the existing and future collection system was performed. The capacity analysis entailed identifying areas in the sewer system where flow restrictions occur or where capacity is insufficient to convey PWWFs. Sewer mains and/or lift stations that lack sufficient capacity to convey PWWFs create bottlenecks in the collection system that can potentially cause sanitary sewer overflows (SSOs).
Figure ES.3 illustrates the recommended improvements to mitigate the existing and future collection system deficiencies. The improvements shown on Figure ES.3 are color-coded by planning period:
existing improvements (shown in red), improvements to serve future users within the City limits (shown in orange), and improvements to serve future users within the UDB (shown in purple). A description of the recommended improvement projects is provided in Chapter 6.

CITY OF TULARE
WATER, WASTEWATER, AND STORM DRAIN MASTER PLAN UPDATES ES-13 ES.5.3 Storm Drainage System Evaluation and Proposed Improvements When evaluating the adequacy of the storm drainage facilities, the City’s storm drains were allowed to surcharge during the 100-year design storm event to provide additional storage capacity, thus reducing the number of storm drain improvements. The storm drainage criteria allowed flooding up to one foot above the gutter flow line in the 100-year design storm event. For the 10-year design storm event, the maximum hydraulic grade line (HGL) was not allowed to exceed the ground level (i.e., no flooding permitted).
The capacity analysis entailed identifying areas in the storm drainage system where flooding exceeded the maximum allowable flow depth (i.e., ground level for the 10-year event, 1-foot above the gutter for the 100-year event). Storm drain infrastructure that lack sufficient capacity to convey runoff generated from the design storm could produce backwater effects in the drainage system and potentially cause flooding.
Figure ES.4 through Figure ES.8 illustrates the recommended improvements to mitigate the storm drainage system existing and future deficiencies. The improvements shown on Figures ES.4 through ES.8 are color-coded by planning period: existing improvements (shown in red), improvements to serve future users within the City limits (shown in orange), and improvements to serve future users within the UDB (shown in purple). A description of the recommended improvement projects is provided in Chapter 6.

WATER, WASTEWATER, AND STORM DRAIN MASTER PLAN
JUNE 2024 / DRAFT / CAROLLO
CITY OF TULARE
WATER, WASTEWATER, AND STORM DRAIN MASTER PLAN UPDATES ES-25 ES.6 Capital Improvement Plan
This section presents the City’s capital improvement plan (CIP), a summary of the capital costs, and a basic assessment of the possible financial impacts on the City. The CIP is based on the evaluation of the City’s water distribution system, wastewater collection system, and storm drainage system, as described in Chapter 6.
ES.6.1 CIP Phasing
The proposed capital improvements are grouped by the planning period in which the improvement was triggered:
Existing: This includes projects that are triggered under existing conditions. City Limit Buildout: This includes improvements triggered by City Limits buildout. Urban Development Boundary (UDB) Buildout: This includes improvements triggered by UDB buildout.
The following sections summarize the CIPs for the water distribution, sewer collection, and storm drainage systems.
ES.6.2 Cost Estimating Accuracy
The cost estimates presented in the CIP’s have been prepared for general master planning purposes and for guidance in project evaluation and implementation. Final costs of a project will depend on actual labor and materials costs, competitive market conditions, final project scope, implementation schedule, and other variable factors such as preliminary alignment generation, investigation of alternative routings, and detailed utility and topography surveys.
The AACE defines an Order of Magnitude Estimate, deemed appropriate for master plan studies as an approximate estimate made without detailed engineering data. It is normally expected that an estimate of this type would be accurate within plus 50 percent to minus 30 percent. This section presents the assumptions used in developing order of magnitude cost estimates for recommended facilities.
ES.6.3 Cost Estimating Methodology and Contingencies
Project cost estimates are calculated based on elements, such as the project location, size, length, and other factors. Allowances for project contingencies consistent with an “Order of Magnitude” estimate are also included in the project costs prepared as part of this study, as outlined in this section. The following factors and contingencies were applied to the baseline construction costs:
Construction Contingency: A 30 percent construction contingency was applied to the baseline cost to account for unforeseen events and unknown conditions. Engineering: A 10 percent factor was applied to the construction cost to account for engineering services associated with new facilities such as preparation of drawings and specifications. Construction Management: A 10 percent factor was applied to the construction cost to account for construction phase professional services such as construction management, materials testing, and inspections.

WATER, WASTEWATER, AND STORM DRAIN MASTER PLAN
JUNE 2024 / DRAFT / CAROLLO
CITY OF TULARE
WATER, WASTEWATER, AND STORM DRAIN MASTER PLAN UPDATES ES-26 As shown in the following sample calculation of the Capital Improvement Cost, the total cost of all project construction contingencies (construction, engineering services, and construction management) is 56 percent of the Baseline Construction Cost. Note that contingencies were not applied to land acquisition costs. The calculation of the 56 percent is the overall mark-up on the Baseline Construction Cost to arrive at the Capital Improvement Cost. It is not an additional contingency.
Example:
Baseline Construction Cost $1,000,000
Construction Contingency (30%) $300,000
Estimated Construction Cost $1,300,000
Engineering Cost (10%) $130,000
Construction Management (10%) $130,000
Capital Improvement Cost $1,560,000
ES.6.4 Water Distribution System CIP Summary
The water distribution system CIP is summarized by trigger and project type in Table ES. 3 and shown in Figure ES.9. As shown in Table ES.3, out of the total $500.6 million in capital projects, $69.6 million (14 percent) are triggered by existing users, and an additional $125.3 million (25 percent) are triggered by future City Limit buildout growth. The remaining $305.7 million (61 percent) of water distribution system capital improvements are triggered by future UDB buildout growth. The “Other” projects include upsizing existing small diameter water mains and a future master plan update.

League of California Cities Annual Conference and Expo, Oct. 16-18, 2024 Long Beach Convention Center
Every year, the League of California Cities convenes a member-driven General Assembly at the Cal Cities Annual Conference and Expo. The General Assembly is an important opportunity where city officials can directly participate in the development of Cal Cities policy.
Taking place on Oct. 18, the General Assembly is comprised of voting delegates appointed by each member city; every city has one voting delegate. Your appointed voting delegate plays an important role during the General Assembly by representing your city and voting on resolutions.
To cast a vote during the General Assembly, your city must designate a voting delegate and up to two alternate voting delegates, one of whom may vote if the designated voting delegate is unable to serve in that capacity. Voting delegates may either be an elected or appointed official.
Action by Council Required. Consistent with Cal Cities bylaws, a city’s voting delegate and up to two alternates must be designated by the city council. Please note that designating the voting delegate and alternates must be done by city council action and cannot be accomplished by individual action of the mayor or city manager alone.
Following council action, please submit your city’s delegates through the online submission portal by Wed., Sept. 25. When completing the Voting Delegate submission form, you will be asked to attest that council action was taken. You will need to be signed in to your My Cal Cities account when submitting the form.
Submitting your voting delegate form by the deadline will allow us time to establish voting delegate/alternate records prior to the conference and provide pre-conference communications with voting delegates.
Conference Registration Required. The voting delegate and alternates must be registered to attend the conference. They need not register for the entire conference; they may register for Friday only. Conference registration is open on the Cal Cities website.
Council Action Advised by September 25, 2024
8.3 General Business Page 2 ATTACHMENT 1
For a city to cast a vote, one voter must be present at the General Assembly and in possession of the voting delegate card and voting tool. Voting delegates and alternates need to pick up their conference badges before signing in and picking up the voting delegate card at the voting delegate desk. This will enable them to receive the special sticker on their name badges that will admit the voting delegate into the voting area during the General Assembly.
Please view Cal Cities’ event and meeting policy in advance of the conference.
Transferring Voting Card to Non-Designated Individuals Not Allowed. The voting delegate card may be transferred freely between the voting delegate and alternates, but only between the voting delegate and alternates. If the voting delegate and alternates find themselves unable to attend the General Assembly, they may not transfer the voting card to another city official.
Seating Protocol during General Assembly. At the General Assembly, individuals with a voting card will sit in a designated area. Admission to the voting area will be limited to the individual in possession of the voting card and with a special sticker on their name badge identifying them as a voting delegate.
The voting delegate desk, located in the conference registration area of the Long Beach Convention Center in Long Beach, will be open at the following times: Wednesday, Oct. 16, 8:00 a.m.-6:00 p.m. and Thursday, Oct. 17, 7:30 a.m.-4:00 p.m. On Friday, Oct. 18, the voting delegate desk will be open at the General Assembly, starting at 7:30 a.m., but will be closed during roll calls and voting.
The voting procedures that will be used at the conference are attached to this memo.
Please share these procedures and this memo with your council and especially with the individuals that your council designates as your city’s voting delegate and alternates.
Once again, thank you for submitting your voting delegate and alternates by Wednesday, Sept. 25. If you have questions, please contact Zach Seals at [email protected].

Sixty days before the
Annual Conference
and Expo, Cal Cities
members may submit
policy proposals on
issues of importance
to cities. The resolution must
have the concurrence of at least
five additional member cities or
individual members.
How it works: Cal Cities
Resolutions and the General Assembly
General Assembly
General Resolutions Policy Committees
Developing League of California Cities policy is a dynamic process that engages a wide range of members to ensure Cal Cities represents cities with one voice. These policies directly guide Cal Cities’ advocacy to promote local decision-making, and lobby against statewide policies that erode local control.
The resolutions process and General Assembly is one way that city officials can directly participate in the development of Cal Cities policy. If a resolution is approved at the General Assembly, it becomes official Cal Cities policy. Here’s how resolutions and the General Assembly work.
The petitioned
resolution is an
alternate method
to introduce policy
proposals during
the annual conference. The
petition must be signed by
voting delegates from 10% of
member cities, and submitted to
the Cal Cities President at least
24 hours before the beginning
of the General Assembly.
Petitioned Resolutions
The Cal Cities
President assigns
general resolutions
to policy committees
where members
review, debate, and recommend
positions for each policy proposal.
Recommendations are forwarded
to the Resolutions Committee.
Who’s who
The Resolutions Committee
includes representatives
from each Cal Cities
diversity caucus, regional
division, municipal
department, and policy
committee, as well as
individuals appointed by
the Cal Cities president.
Voting delegates
are appointed by each
member city; every city
has one voting delegate.
The General Assembly is a
meeting of the collective
body of all voting
delegates —one from
every member city.
Seven policy committees
meet throughout the year
to review and recommend
positions to take on bills
and regulatory proposals.
Policy committees include
members from each Cal
Cities diversity caucus,
regional division, and
municipal department,
as well as individuals
appointed by the Cal
Cities president.
During the General Assembly, voting delegates
debate and consider general and petitioned
resolutions forwarded by the Resolutions
Committee. Potential Cal Cities bylaws
amendments are also considered at this meeting.
Cal Cities policy
development is a memberinformed process,
grounded in the voices and
experiences of city officials
throughout the state.

Staff Report
Meeting: City Council
Date: August 20, 2024
Department: Community Development
Submitted by: Mario Anaya, Community Development Director Agenda Title: Parking in Single-Family Residential Zones
RECOMMENDED ACTION
Provide direction to staff regarding the adequacy of the existing requirements in the City’s Municipal Code and procedures for non-compliance regarding parking in single-family residential zones, and/or direction on any proposed revisions to various sections of the Code.
SUMMARY
Council previously requested to add an agenda item for discussion on current Tulare Municipal Code (Code) requirements for parking in single-family residential zones, meaning residential properties in the city for single detached houses, in contrast to multi-family residential zones consisting of attached apartments on the same property.
Staff and Council have received complaints regarding properties throughout the city developed with a house and having multiple vehicles parked, not only in the driveway, compliant with the city’s Code, but also obstructing and parking on sidewalks and along a large segment of the curb, beyond the house, creating potentially hazardous conditions for pedestrians using the sidewalk and bicyclists using the bicycle lanes adjacent to the curb.
Currently, the following chapters and sections of the Code address current residential parking requirements and policies in the city. The referenced sections are attached to this staff report, and relevant sections summarized below.
• Chapter 7.28 addresses nuisances generally, with Sections 7.28.030(P)(5)(c) and
7.28.030(P)(5)(d) specifically addressing parking of operable vehicles and abandoned inoperative vehicles respectively.
• Section 9.48.160(A) addresses vehicles parked on a public street for 72 or more consecutive hours.
• Section 10.32.060(I)(1) provides the requirements for off-street parking in a single-family residential zone, as follows:
o “For single-family dwellings, a minimum of two covered parking spaces shall be provided on-site. Each space shall measure a minimum of nine feet in width and 20 feet in depth. All parking spaces and driveways shall be surfaced with asphalt concrete, chip seal or other suitable all-weather surfacing. Where a carport or garage is open to a public street, a driveway length of at least 20 feet shall be provided between the parking structure.”
Item #: 8.4
General Business
8.4 General Business Page 1
Currently, the City’s Code Enforcement Division provides enforcement for non-compliance of any vehicles declared a nuisance and parked on private property, typically on the driveway or in the front yard on an unapproved surface. The City’s Police Department currently provides enforcement for non-compliance of any vehicles declared a nuisance or safety hazard when located on public right-of-way, such as on sidewalks or parked on the street.
Upon Council discussion, staff is seeking Council input regarding the adequacy of the existing requirements in the Code and procedures for non-compliance, as well as direction on any proposed revisions to the attached sections of the Code.
FISCAL IMPACT & FUNDING SOURCE(S)
No further expenditures or revenues are expected as a result of the recommended action at this time. There is no fiscal impact associated with this action.
LEGAL REVIEW
Legal review is currently not required for this item.
ALTERNATIVE ACTION
1. Approve Council-directed requests for changes to the Code text and procedures for noncompliance.
2. Deny any changes to the Code text and procedures for non-compliance. The current existing Code language and procedures for non-compliance will continue to be followed by staff.
3. Table this item until a future date, as determined by Council. The current existing Code language and procedures for non-compliance will continue to be followed by staff.

The City Council may name street intersections or sections of streets not exceeding one block in length in honor and recognition of individuals or organizations that are of particular importance to the City of Tulare or have made significant contributions to improving the quality of life in the City. The honorary naming of intersections under this policy section is separate and distinct from the process for naming or renaming streets provided by this Policy and shall not replace, supersede, or otherwise affect existing names of streets.
2.4.2. Recognition with an honorary intersection title shall be reserved for those individuals and organizations that have performed an exemplary act or achievement of lasting interest to their community, which reflects positively on the City of Tulare as a whole, and:
2.4.2.1. if an individual is a resident or a native of the City or is of particular importance to the City; or

sufficient community support. Evidence of such support includes an affirmative vote of the Planning Commission, written support from community leaders, or citizen petition.
2.5.2.

2.5.3. Funding for the installation of honorary intersection title signs shall be the responsibility of the sponsoring councilmember. The councilmember shall identify, obtain, and make such funds available to the Community and Economic Development Department.
If Council determines this request falls in line with the adopted Street Naming policy and sufficient evidence of community support has been provided, Council may adopt the attached resolution approving the naming of the intersection. Councilmember Harrell will then work with staff to complete the process.

ITEM TITLE
BRIEF DESCRIPTION/BACKGROUND INFORMATION OF ITEM
Stephen Harrell July 21, 2024 August 6, 2024
Naming of the intersection of Martin Luther King and Blackstone in memory of Navy Hospitalman Leonard Long who was killed in Vietnam in 1968 Several weeks ago I received an inquiry from the Long family about a promise made to the family by the city to name a street or park for Hospitalman Long. Melissa, was kind enough to research past council minutes but nothing could be found from the council but that's not to say that someone within city government made the promise. I talked to Ronald Long a Brother and he stated that he was in poor health and would like to see his Brother honored before he died.
Leonard Long was born in Tulare April 6, 1947 and grew up at 728 "S" St. he attended Tulare city schools and graduated from Tulare Union High School in 1965. After high school he enlisted in the United States Navy, with the specialty of Hospitalman (Medic). He was assigned to the 3rd Marine Division, 1st Battalion, 9th Marines in Quang Tri province South Vietnam. On March 26, 1968, while under heavy enemy rocket, mortar, artillery fire as well as small arms Hospitalman Long with disregard for his own safety continued to provide medical care for wounded marines. The after action report indicates that even after loosing a leg to a rocket Hospitalman Long continued to care for others until he was shot and killed by small arms fire. He was buried here in Tulare on April 6, 1968 his 21st. Birthday. He was awarded the Bronze Star, Purple Heart, Vietnam Gallantry Cross as well as several other military awards. He is now being considered for the Silver Star for his action the second highest award given. Hospitalman Long still has family and many friends here in Tulare. I asked council's approval to name this intersection and place an appropriate sign at the intersection honoring his courage and sacrifice. May his positive example inspire us, to work together towards peace, mutual respect and equality for all.
