SUBJECT: Proclamation Recognizing May 2024 Mental Health Awareness Month ATTACHMENTS:
• Proclamation Recognizing
May 2024 Mental Health
Awareness Month
CITY OF TWENTYNINE PALMS
PROCLAMATION
MENTAL HEALTH AWARENESS MONTH
WHEREAS, each May, we raise awareness about the importance of mental health and its impact on the well-being of all Americans, including children, adults, families, and communities across our Nation. We also give thanks to the dedicated mental health providers whose service and support improve the lives of so many Americans. We stand in solidarity with those experiencing mental health conditions, renewing our commitment to providing them with the support they need and deserve; and WHEREAS, even before the pandemic, millions of Americans were experiencing stress, trauma, anxiety, and heightened levels of depression. The COVID-19 pandemic exacerbated those conditions, creating an unprecedented mental health crisis across our country. Communities of color, frontline workers, health care workers, and individuals with eating disorders have been disproportionately impacted. The rate of depression across the country has more than tripled compared to rates in 2019; and WHEREAS, mental health challenges among our youth have also been particularly acute due to disruptions in routines, increased social isolation, and learning loss. Research has shown that social media plays a central role in increasing mental health challenges among young people—especially young women. Emergency department visits for attempted suicide among girls in 2021 increased by more than 50 percent compared to 2020. American Indians, Alaska Natives, Black youth, and LGBTQIA+ youth also face a disproportionate risk of suicide; and
WHEREAS, last year, the Surgeon General released an Advisory on Protecting Youth Mental Health that underscored the growing harms of digital technologies – especially social media – on the mental health of our youth. It is time to strengthen privacy protections, ban targeted advertising to children, and demand that technology companies stop collecting our children's personal data. We must also continue researching the impact of social media on the mental health of our children, expand services in school to promote their wellbeing, and set them up for success so they can thrive as adults; and WHEREAS, each of us has a vital role in supporting our fellow Americans living with mental health conditions. Learn the warning signs of emotional distress and suicide. Engage affected loved ones in supportive dialogue. Fight the prejudice and negative attitudes that discourage those in need from seeking mental health support. Above all, let us collectively ensure that all children and adults experiencing mental health challenges are treated with the compassion, respect, and understanding they deserve.
NOW, THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the City Council of the City of Twentynine Palms, does hereby proclaim May 2024 as NATIONAL MENTAL HEALTH AWARENESS MONTH and encourages all citizens to take action in helping to strengthen the mental health of our communities and our Nation.
DATED this 14th day of May 2024.

PROCLAMATION
ASIAN AMERICAN, NATIVE HAWAIIAN,
AND PACIFIC ISLANDER HERITAGE MONTH 2024
WHEREAS, during Asian American, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander Heritage Month, our Nation recognizes the innumerable contributions, vibrant cultures, and rich heritage of Asian Americans, Native Hawaiians, and Pacific Islanders (AA and NHPIs). As some of the fastest-growing racial and ethnic groups in the Nation, AA and NHPI communities represent a multitude of ethnicities, languages, and experiences that enrich America and strengthen our Union; and
WHEREAS, AA and NHPIs have long played an essential role in writing the American story. From serving our country in uniform, advocating for civil rights, starting new businesses, and winning Olympic medals, the contributions of the AA and NHPI community touch the lives of Americans every day. AA and NHPIs serve with distinction at the highest levels of Federal, State, and local government; and WHEREAS, as we celebrate AA and NHPI communities, we must also redouble our commitment to combating the surge of anti-Asian hate crimes. Many other incidents of anti-Asian bias, xenophobia, and harassment that surfaced throughout the COVID-19 pandemic were not even reported. We cannot allow these horrific acts to continue threatening the safety of AA and NHPI Americans—especially women, girls, and the elderly. These acts are wrong; they are un-American; they must stop. As we work to ensure that hatred has no safe harbor in America’s future, we must confront shameful chapters in our history. And we will continue to root out racial injustices of our past and advance equity for all Americans as we move forward; and WHEREAS, this month, we celebrate our fellow Americans from AA and NHPI communities and pay tribute to all they have done to help fulfill the promise of America for all. Together, let us recommit ourselves to building a country in which every American—regardless of who they are, where they come from, or what they look like—has an opportunity to thrive.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the City Council of the City of Twentynine Palms does hereby proclaim May 2024 as ASIAN AMERICAN, NATIVE HAWAIIAN, AND PACIFIC ISLANDER HERITAGE MONTH. We call upon all Americans to learn more about the history of Asian Americans, Native Hawaiians, and Pacific Islanders and to observe this month with appropriate programs and activities.
DATED this 14th day of May 2024.

ATTACHMENTS:
• Resolution No. 24-
• Exhibit A
BACKGROUND:
Proposition 4, co-sponsored by Proposition 13 author Paul Gann and commonly known as the Gann initiative, was passed by California voters in 1979. It established Article XIIIB of the State Constitution and set limits on the growth of most appropriations from tax sources made by the State and affected local government entities. Most local governments and districts are subject to the limit. Starting in the 1980-81 Fiscal Year, Article XIIIB limited annual growth of applicable appropriation levels to calculated percentages, above the previous year's level, based upon regional population growth and the rate of inflation as measured by the lower of the percentage change in the Consumer Price Index, CPI, or California's per capita personal income.
Each year, the City is required to establish a limit on the amount of General Fund monies it may spend. The amount is determined by calculations based on the population and economic changes of the prior calendar year.
Based on the attached calculations, the appropriation limit for Fiscal Year 2024-25 should be set at $72,953,218, which the City is below.

EXHIBIT A
April 30, 2024
Dear Fiscal Officer:
Price Factor and Population Information
Appropriations Limit
California Revenue and Taxation Code section 2227 requires the Department of Finance to transmit an estimate of the percentage change in population to local governments.
Each local jurisdiction must use their percentage change in population factor for January 1, 2024, in conjunction with a change in the cost of living, or price factor, to calculate their appropriations limit for fiscal year 2024-25. Attachment A provides the change in California’s per capita personal income and an example for utilizing the factors to calculate the 2024-25 appropriations limit. Attachment B provides the city and unincorporated county population percentage change. Attachment C provides the population percentage change for counties and their summed incorporated areas. The population percentage change data excludes federal and state institutionalized populations and military populations.
Population Percent Change for Special Districts
Some special districts must establish an annual appropriations limit. California Revenue and Taxation Code section 2228 provides additional information regarding the appropriations limit. Article XIII B, section 9(C) of the California Constitution exempts certain special districts from the appropriations limit calculation mandate. Special districts required by law to calculate their appropriations limit must present the calculation as part of their annual audit. Any questions special districts have on this requirement should be directed to their county, district legal counsel, or the law itself. No state agency reviews the local appropriations limits.
Population Certification
The population certification program applies only to cities and counties. California Revenue and Taxation Code section 11005.6 mandates Finance to automatically certify any population estimate that exceeds the current certified population with the State Controller’s Office.

Attachment A
A. Price Factor: Article XIII B specifies that local jurisdictions select their cost of living factor to compute their appropriation limit by a vote of their governing body. The cost of living factor provided here is per capita personal income. If the percentage change in per capita personal income is selected, the percentage change to be used in setting the fiscal year 2024-25 appropriation limit is:
Per Capita Personal Income
Fiscal Year Percentage change
(FY) over prior year
2024-25 3.62
B. Following is an example using sample population change and the change in California per capita personal income as growth factors in computing a 2024-25 appropriation limit.
2024-25:
Per Capita Cost of Living Change = 3.62 percent
Population Change = 0.17 percent
Per Capita Cost of Living converted to a ratio: 3.62 + 100 = 1.0362 100
Population converted to a ratio: 0.17 + 100 = 1.0017
100
Calculation of factor for FY 2024-25: 1.0362 x 1.0017 = 1.0379
Fiscal Year 2024-25

BACKGROUND:
From the California Arts Council (CAC) website:
The Creative Youth Development program is rooted in the CAC’s belief that arts learning is an essential tool for healthy human development and that it should be available to all young people throughout California, including but not limited to those whose lives have been impacted or interrupted by the justice system. The CAC envisions that all of California’s young people are provided with meaningful, culturally responsive arts-learning experiences so that they can reach their full potential. All projects may occur during or outside of traditional school hours and should take place at arts and culture venues, community centers, court/school sites, juvenile halls and camps, countyoperated correctional facilities, social services agencies, and other youth-oriented settings.
Beneficiaries of Creative Youth Development projects include youth from infancy to 25 years of age.
Support for system-engaged, system-impacted, and/or at-promise youth are an additional priority with successful projects being tailored specifically to respond to their needs. These may be youth and young people who were dismissed from middle, high and/or continuation schools; have been subjected to racial profiling; have been arrested or are on probation; are currently incarcerated at a juvenile justice facility or attending a court-appointed educational institution; are undocumented; are unhoused and/or migratory; are refugees; have incarcerated parent(s) or guardian(s); and/or are pregnant or young parents themselves.
If obtained, then the PAAC would develop a free afterschool arts program to serve the teens of Twentynine Palms. The program would be held at Patriotic Hall through a collaboration with Park and Recreation. The program would be overseen by Kate Short, vice-Chair of the PAAC, and utilize several of the mentees from WORKSHOP29.

• Planning Commission
Resolution
BACKGROUND:
On October 03, 2023, and on April 16, 2024, the Planning Commission conducted Public Hearings on changes to Chapter 19.90, Dedications and Improvements of the Development Code.
Chapter 19.90 Dedications and Improvements establishes the standards for when street dedications will be required, what infrastructure improvements will be required for a development project, provides a process to request a delay or deferral of required improvements and establishes Development Impact Fees. Staff is presenting the modifications to this Chapter as outlined below. Section 19.90.040 has been modified to implement a process for establishing legal access for lots located on streets where no dedicated right-of-way exists. Page 51 of 344 Section 19.90.080 has been modified to repeal the current Street Improvement Impact Fee, which is based upon linear street frontage of the property, and to establish a Development Impact Fee, which is based upon square footage of proposed structures. Removal of the term "waiving/waived as there is no allowance in the code for waiving of requirements.
Making the language for required infrastructure improvements consistent for all zoning designations.
Modifying the language in Section 19.90.050 for the requirement for Offer of Dedication.
To receive a building permit, physical and legal access must be established on a parcel. Physical access is defined as a route which is traversable in a standard 2-wheel drive sedan. Legal access is defined in the following ways:
1. A dedicated right of way.
2. A dedication to the City of Twentynine Palms and to the public in general, an easement for public road, highway and public utility purposes of a width as established by the Circulation Element of the General Plan.
3. An existing traveled way that is substantially in compliance with City road standards, where a prescriptive right by the user has been established for the public use by court decree.
4. Private road easement.
Many of the existing lots in the City have a property line in common with adjacent lots and no right of way has been established. The proposed code amendment will define the procedure to establish legal access and provides a mechanism to allow construction if legal access cannot be established.
Pursuant to Section 66006 of the California Government Code, local agencies are authorized to conditionally approve development projects subject to the payment of Development Impact Fees (DIF).
The intent of DIF is for the purpose of defraying all or a portion of the cost of public infrastructure related to the development project.
The City currently collects a Street Improvement Impact Fee at a rate of $87.22 per linear foot for new construction. In July of 2020, the City Council provided direction to Staff to review the current Street Improvement Impact Fee with the potential to create a DIF. The City contracted for a Transportation Impact Fee Study. At the meeting of April 2022, the City Council approved the study and directed Staff to move forward with a Development Code Amendment.
However, in January 2022, new State regulations went into effect in regard to impact fees and the City contracted for an updated Transportation Impact Fee Study. The Development Impact Fee adopted must be in relation to the square footage of the proposed structure.
Pursuant to the Transportation Impact Fee Study, the proposed fees collected are to be allocated for improvements on Adobe Road, Lear Avenue, Encelia Avenue, Mesquite Springs Road, Amboy Road, Two Mile Road, Hatch Road, Sullivan Road and Twentynine Palms Hwy.
The fees to be collected are as follows:
Single Family residential dwelling units: $2.94 / square foot Multifamily residential dwelling units: $3.16 / square foot Commercial development: $8.52 / square foot
Office development: $8.94 / square foot
Industrial development: $5.17 / square foot
ENVIRONMENTAL:
This action is exempt from CEQA pursuant to Section 15061(b)(3), which states that the activity is covered by the common-sense exemption that CEQA applies only to projects which have the potential Page 52 of 344 for causing a significant effect on the environment. Where it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the activity in question may have a significant effect on the environment, the activity is not subject to CEQA.
ALTERNATIVES:
1. Request additional information from Staff and postpone the Hearing to a date certain.
2. Make modifications to the draft code and adopt with recommended changes.
3. Return the item to the Planning Commission for further review.
4. Deny the Development Code Amendment.
FISCAL IMPACT:
None.

A. Establishment. In lieu of requiring the construction of the street improvements required by this Chapter, a street improvement impact fee may Development Impact Fees will be assessed, at the discretion of the City Engineer, in connection with the issuance of a development permit for new construction.
A. Calculation of Fee. The amount of the fee shall be as adopted by Resolution of the City Council and shall be calculated according to the square footage of the proposed construction. Fees are based upon land use type as identified in Article 2. length of street frontage of the lot on which the development is to occur. The fee to be assessed in connection with the issuance of a permit for construction of a new single-family residence or new second dwelling unit with a kitchen shall be based upon the length of street frontage of the lot on which the development is to occur, up to 150 feet of frontage.
For all other development, the fee shall be calculated based upon the total street frontage of the lot on which the development is to occur. Subject to the adjustment provisions in Subsection 19.90.080.C, the fee for fiscal year 2006–2007 shall be $75 per linear foot of street frontage.
B. Adjustment of Fee. In order to account for increased construction costs relating to material and labor, the fee in Subsection 19.90.080.B shall be increased by an inflation factor equivalent to the Consumer Price Index each following fiscal year after fiscal year 2006–2007.
C.B. Collection. The amount of fees due hereunder shall be determined at the time of approval of a development permit for new construction. The fee shall be paid prior to no later than the issuance of a building permit for such development and no building permit shall be issued authorizing the construction or establishment of any units without payment of the fee.
C. Creation of Separate Funds; Purpose and Use of Development Street Improvement Impact Fees.

1 Executive Summary
This report summarizes an analysis of the need for transportation facilities to support future development within the City of Twentynine Palms as growth occurs. It is the City’s intent that the costs representing future development’s share of these facilities and improvements be imposed on that development in the form of a development impact fee.
Background and Study Objectives
The primary policy objective of this transportation impact fee program is to ensure that new development pays the capital costs associated with growth. The primary purpose of this report is to calculate and present fees that will enable the City to expand its inventory of transportation facilities – and therefore maintain its facilities standards – as new development creates more demand for transportation facilities.
The City will transportation impact fees Citywide under the authority granted by the Mitigation Fee Act (the Act), contained in California Government Code Sections 66000 et seq. This report provides the necessary findings required by the Act for adoption of the fees presented in the fee schedule contained herein.
Use of Fee Revenues
Impact fee revenue must be spent on new facilities or the expansion of current facilities to serve new development. The share of specific facilities intended to be funded by this fee are detailed within this report.
Methodology Used in This Study
The impact fees calculated in this study use a planned facilities approach to allocate costs to new development. This approach identifies the share of planned facilities needed to serve new development, and then allocates the associated costs of facilities to new development through the impact fee.

3 1. Introduction
This report presents an analysis of the need for transportation facilities to accommodate new development in the City of Twentynine Palms. This chapter provides background for the study and explains the study approach under the following sections:
▪ Study Objectives;
▪ Study Methodology;
▪ Fee Program Maintenance; and
▪ Organization of the Report.
Study Objectives
The primary policy objective of a traffic facilities fee program is to ensure that new development pays the capital costs associated with growth. The primary purpose of this report is to establish transportation impact fees that will enable the City to expand its inventory of transportation facilities – and therefore maintain its facilities standards – as new development leads to increases in service demands.
The City imposes impact fees under authority granted by the Mitigation Fee Act (the Act), contained in California Government Code Sections 66000 et seq. This report provides the necessary findings required by the Act for adoption of the fees presented in the fee schedules contained herein.
The City of Twentynine Palms is forecast to experience substantial growth through the planning horizon of 2040. This growth will create an increase in demand for public services and the City facilities required to deliver them. Given the revenue challenges that are common to most cities and counties in California, the City has decided to use a development impact fee program to ensure that new development funds the share of transportation facility costs associated with growth. This report makes use of the most current available growth forecasts and facility plans to establish a transportation impact fee program that funds new development’s share of the transportation facilities demanded by that development.
Study Methodology
Traffic impact fees are calculated to fund the cost of transportation facilities required to accommodate growth. The five steps followed in a public facilities fee study include:
1. Estimate existing development and future growth: Identify a base year for existing development and a growth forecast that reflects increased demand for transportation facilities;
2. Identify facility standards: Determine the facility standards used to plan for new and expanded facilities;
3. Determine facilities required to serve new development and their costs:
Estimate the total amount and cost of planned facilities, and identify the share required to accommodate new development;
4. Identify alternative funding requirements: Determine if any non-fee funding is required and/or available to complete projects; and,
5. Calculate fee schedule: Allocate facilities costs per unit of new development to calculate the public facilities fee schedule.
City of Twentynine Palms Transportation Impact Fee Study 4 The key public policy issue in development impact fee studies is the identification of facility standards (step #2, above). Facility standards document a reasonable relationship between new development and the need for new facilities. Standards ensure that new development does not fund deficiencies associated with existing development.
Types of Facility Standards
There are three separate components of facility standards: demand standards, design standards and cost standards. Demand standards determine the amount of facilities required to accommodate growth. In this case, the impact fee seeks to maintain a specific level of service on its roadways. Design standards determine how a facility should be designed to meet expected demand, and directly related to the costs of planned facilities. The projects included in the transportation impact fee have all been designed to meet state and City engineering standards.
Finally, cost standards are a method for determining the amount of facilities required to accommodate growth based on facility costs per unit of demand.
The transportation impact fee analysis contained in this report converts project costs to serve growth (identified by demand and design standards), into a cost standard (cost per trip from new development), which is then used as the basis of the fee. A fee for a particular land use is equal to the cost per trip, multiplied by the trip generation rate (trip demand factor) for that land use.
New Development Facility Needs and Costs
Several approaches are used to identify facility needs and costs to serve new development. Often there is a two-step process: (1) identify total facility needs, and (2) allocate to new development its fair share of those needs.
There are three common methods for determining new development’s fair share of planned facilities costs: the existing inventory method, the system plan method, and the planned facilities method. Often the method selected depends on the degree to which the community has engaged in comprehensive facility master planning to identify facility needs.
The existing inventory method allocates costs based on the ratio of existing facilities to demand from existing development. Under this method new development funds the expansion of facilities at the same standard currently serving existing development. This method is not used in this study.
The system plan method calculates the fee based on the value of existing facilities plus the cost of planned facilities, divided by demand from existing plus new development. This method is useful when planned facilities need to be analyzed as part of a system that benefits both existing and new development. This method is not used in this study.
The planned facilities method allocates costs based on the ratio of planned facility costs to demand from new development as follows:
Cost of Planned Facilities
New Development Demand
This method is appropriate when specific planned facilities can be identified that only benefit new development. Examples include street improvements to avoid deficient levels of service or a sewer trunk line extension to a previously undeveloped area. This method is also appropriate when to use in this analysis when a specific share of planned facilities that benefit new development can be identified. Under this method new development funds its fair share of the expansion of facilities needed to ensure that traffic operates at an acceptable level of service.
This method is used to calculate the transportation impact fees in this report.
Fee Program Maintenance
Once a fee program has been adopted it must be properly maintained to ensure that the revenue collected adequately funds the facilities needed by new development. Impact fee levels must be = $/unit of demand
City of Twentynine Palms Transportation Impact Fee Study 5 adjusted frequently to account for inflation. Should the cost of facilities rise more quickly than the fee amounts collected, the facilities needed to serve new development will be underfunded. To avoid collecting inadequate revenue, costs for planned facilities must be updated periodically for inflation, and the fees recalculated to reflect the higher costs. The use of established construction cost indices, such as those published by the Engineering News Record, are necessary to accurately adjust the impact fees for inflation. For a list of recommended indices, and step-bystep instructions for adjusting fees for inflation, see Chapter 3.
While fee updates using inflation indices are appropriate for periodic updates to ensure that fee revenues keep up with increases in the costs of traffic facilities, it is recommended to conduct more extensive updates of the fee documentation and calculation when significant new data on growth forecasts and/or facility plans become available. For further detail on fee program implementation, see Chapter 4.

6 2. Transportation Impact Fee
Analysis
This chapter summarizes an analysis of the need for transportation facilities, including roadway and intersection improvements, to accommodate increased trip demand from new development.
The chapter documents a reasonable relationship between new development and an impact fee for funding of these facilities.
Growth Projections
Growth projections are used as indicators of demand to determine facility needs and allocate those needs between existing and new development. This section explains the source for the growth projections used in this study based on a 2022 base year and a planning horizon of 2040.
Estimates of existing development and projections of future growth are critical assumptions used throughout this report. These estimates are used as follows:
▪ The estimate of existing development in 2022 is used as an indicator of existing facility demand.
▪ The estimate of total development in 2040 is used as an indicator of future demand to determine total facilities needed to accommodate growth and remedy existing facility deficiencies, if any.
▪ Estimates of growth from 2022 through 2040 are used to (1) allocate facility costs between new development and existing development, and (2) estimate total fee revenues.
The demand for transportation facilities is based on the increase in trips generated by dwelling units or nonresidential development creating the need for the facilities.
Table 1 shows the estimated number of residents, dwelling units, employees, and building square feet within the City of Twentynine Palms, both in 2022 and at the planning horizon. The base year estimates of household residents and dwelling units comes from the California Department of Finance. The projection of residents and dwelling units is based data from the Southern California Association of Governments (SCAG) 2040 Regional Transportation Plan.
Base year employees were estimated based on the latest data from the US Census’ OnTheMap application. The projection of employment is based on an increase of 30% compared to 2022 estimates. This projection is more conservative than the SCAG projection, as City staff felt the SCAG projection for employment in 2040 is too high.
Base year nonresidential square footage was estimated based converting the commercial, office and industrial employees to an equivalent amount of building space using employment density assumptions. This conversion assumes 2.12 employees per 1,000 square feet of commercial space, 3.26 workers per 1,000 square feet of office space and 1.16 employee per 1,000 square feet of industrial space, derived from the most recent Institute of Traffic Engineers (ITE) Trip Generation Manual data.

Trip Demand
The need for transportation improvements is based on the trip demand placed on the system by development. A reasonable measure of demand is the number of PM peak hour vehicle trips, adjusted for the type of trip. Vehicle trip generation rates are a reasonable measure of demand on the City’s system of street improvements across all modes because alternate modes (transit, bicycle, pedestrian) often substitute for vehicle trips.
The two types of trip adjustments made to trip generation rates to calculate trip demand are described below:
City of Twentynine Palms Transportation Impact Fee Study 8 • Pass-by trips are deducted from the trip generation rate. Pass-by trips are intermediates stops between an origin and a destination that require no diversion from the route, such as stopping to get gas on the way to work. • The trip generation rate is adjusted by the average length of trips for a specific land use category compared to the average length of all trips on the street system.
These adjustments allow for a holistic quantification of trip demand that takes trip purpose and length into account for fee calculation purposes.
Table 2 shows the calculation of trip demand factors by land use category based on the adjustments described above. PM peak hour trip rates are based on the latest data available from the Institute of Traffic Engineers (ITE).
The trip purpose and trip length assumptions in Table 2 are based on extensive and detailed trip surveys conducted in the San Diego region by the San Diego Association of Governments (SANDAG). The SANDAG is used to supplement the ITE PM peak hour trip rates, because the SANDAG surveys provide one of the most comprehensive databases available of pass-by trips factors for a wide range of land uses. It should be noted that the projections of current and future trip demand generation in this report are based on data specific to the City.

Cost Allocation to New Development
Table 4 displays the capacity expanding project list and associated cost estimates needed to serve the City through 2040. The projects were identified in the General Plan. City staff estimated the costs of the projects. Note that not all General Plan projects were included in the project list.
City staff identified a subset of General Plan projects that are needed through 2040 to accommodate growth within the City within the planning horizon.
Table 5 allocates the total project costs from Table 4 to new development. Based on the estimates of trip demand from Table 3, new development will represent 16.5% of total trips in 2040. Since the projects identified in the General Plan will serve both existing and new development, new development is being asked to fund its share of the project costs corresponding with its share of trip generation in 2040. In total, approximately $11 million of transportation project costs are allocated to new development through this impact fee.

City of Twentynine Palms Transportation Impact Fee Study 12 Cost per Trip
Every impact fee consists of the cost of projects that can be funded by a fee, divided by a measure of demand. In this case, all fees are first calculated as a cost per trip demand unit. Then these amounts are translated into housing unit (fee per dwelling unit) and nonresidential building space (fee per 1,000 building square feet) by multiplying the cost per trip by the trip demand factor for each land use category. These amounts become the fee schedule.
Table 6 calculates the cost per trip demand unit by dividing the total project costs attributable to new development summarized in Table 5, by the total growth in trips estimated in Table 3.

Maximum Justified Impact Fee Schedule
Table 7 presents the maximum justified transportation impact fee schedule. The cost per trip is multiplied by the trip demand factor for each land use to determine the fee per dwelling unit or per 1,000 square feet of nonresidential building space.

14 3. AB 602 Requirements
On January 1, 2022, new requirements went into effect for California jurisdictions implementing impact fees. Among other changes, AB 602 added Section 66016.5 to, the Government Code, which set guidelines for impact fee nexus studies. Four key requirements from that section which concern the nexus study are reproduced here:
66016.5. (a) (2) When applicable, the nexus study shall identify the existing level of service for each public facility, identify the proposed new level of service, and include an explanation of why the new level of service is appropriate.
66016.5. (a) (4) If a nexus study supports the increase of an existing fee, the local agency shall review the assumptions of the nexus study supporting the original fee and evaluate the amount of fees collected under the original fee.
66016.5. (a) (5) A nexus study adopted after July 1, 2022, shall calculate a fee imposed on a housing development project proportionately to the square footage of proposed units of the development. A local agency that imposes a fee proportionately to the square footage of the proposed units of the development shall be deemed to have used a valid method to establish a reasonable relationship between the fee charged and the burden posed by the development. 66016.5. (a) (6) Large jurisdictions shall adopt a capital improvement plan as a part of the nexus study.
Compliance with AB 602
The following sections describe this study’s compliance with the new requirements of AB 602. 66016.5. (a) (2) - Level of Service
Fees calculated in this report are intended to provide a funding source from new development to fund new development’s fair share of the transportation improvements identified in Table 4. By paving unpaved roads, the planned improvements increase street capacity and therefore level of service by providing additional paved lanes, curb and gutters along the identified segments. This increased level of service is necessary to accommodate growth by allowing increased vehicle speeds, better air quality, reduced noise, and improved community aesthetics. The planned improvements are identified by City staff as necessary to accommodate new development. New development will not fund the entirety of the increase in level of service, rather, it will pay a share corresponding with its share of trip demand within the planning horizon. 66016.5. (a) (4) – Review of Original Fee Assumptions
This study is establishing a new impact fee to fund transportation facilities. Consequently, there are no original fee assumptions to review.
66016.5. (a) (5) – Residential Fees per Square Foot
Impact fees for residential land uses are calculated per square foot and comply with AB 602. 66016.5. (a) (6) – Capital Improvement Plan
The Capital Improvement Plan for this nexus study is comprised of the identified planned facilities listed in Table 4. Adoption of this nexus study would approve the planned facilities identified herein as the Capital Improvement Plan for this nexus study.
15 4. Implementation
Impact Fee Program Adoption Process
Impact fee program adoption procedures are found in the California Government Code section 66016. Adoption of an impact fee program requires the Board of Supervisors to follow certain procedures including holding a public meeting. Data, such as an impact fee report, must be adopted prior to adopting the fee program. The study must be made available at least 30 days prior to the public hearing. The City’s legal counsel should be consulted for any other procedural requirements as well as advice regarding adoption of an enabling ordinance and/or a resolution.
After adoption there is a mandatory 60-day waiting period before the fees go into effect.
Inflation Adjustment
The City should keep its impact fee program up to date by periodically adjusting the fees for inflation. Such adjustments should be completed regularly to ensure that new development will fully fund its share of needed facilities. We recommend that the fees be adjusted for inflation annually.
There are no inflation indices that are specific to the City of Twentynine Palms. We recommend that the Engineering News Record’s Construction Cost Index be used for adjusting fees for inflation.
While fee updates using inflation indices are appropriate for annual updates to ensure that fee revenues keep up with increases in the costs of infrastructure, the City will also need to conduct more extensive updates of the fee documentation and calculation when significant new data on growth forecasts and/or facility plans become available. Note that decreases in index value will result in decreases to fee amounts.
The steps necessary to update fees for inflation are explained below:
To update the transportation impact fee for inflation, the steps are as follows:
1. Identify the percent change in planned facilities cost since last update based on changes in the Engineering News Record’s Construction Cost Index (CCI).
2. Modify the cost each planned facility (the cost allocated to the transportation impact fee in Table 3) by the percent change identified in Step 1.
3. Divide the total cost of projects allocated to the fee calculated in Step 2, by the growth in trips identified in Table 2 to determine the updated cost per trip.
4. Multiply the cost per trip calculated in Step 3 by the trip demand factors identified in Table 1 to determine the fee for each land use.
Reporting Requirements
The City should comply with the annual and five-year reporting requirements of the Mitigation Fee Act found in Government Code Sections 66001 and 66006. For facilities to be funded by a combination of public fees and other revenues, identification of the source and amount of these non-fee revenues is essential. Identification of the timing of receipt of other revenues to fund the facilities is also important.
Programming Revenues and Projects with the CIP
City of Twentynine Palms Transportation Impact Fee Study 16 The City can use a Capital Improvements Program (CIP) to plan for future infrastructure needs. A CIP identifies costs and phasing for specific capital projects. The use of the CIP in this manner documents a reasonable relationship between new development and the use of those revenues.
The City may decide to alter the scope of the planned projects or to substitute new projects if those new projects continue to represent an expansion of the City’s facilities needed to mitigate demand from new development. If the total cost of facilities varies from the total cost used as a basis for the fees, the City should consider revising the fees accordingly.
17 5. Mitigation Fee Act Findings
Public facilities impact fees are one-time fees typically paid when a building permit is issued and imposed on development projects by local agencies responsible for regulating land use (cities and counties). To guide the widespread imposition of public facilities fees the State Legislature adopted the Mitigation Fee Act (the Act) with Assembly Bill 1600 in 1987 and subsequent amendments. The Act, contained in California Government Code Sections 66000 through 66025, establishes requirements on local agencies for the imposition and administration of fee programs.
The Act requires local agencies to document five findings when adopting a fee.
The five statutory findings required for adoption of the maximum justified transportation impact fees documented in this report are presented in this chapter and supported in detail by the report that follows. All statutory references are to the Act.
Purpose of Fee
Identify the purpose of the fee (§66001(a)(1) of the Act).
Development impact fees are designed to ensure that new development will not burden the existing service population with the cost of facilities required to accommodate growth. The City’s General Plan Goal LU-4 states, “Adequately address the potential impacts of new development on the existing community and the City’s infrastructure system.” The purpose of the fees documented in this report is to support this goal by providing a funding source from new development for to fund its fair share of transportation facilities as new development adds traffic to the City’s roadways.
Use of Fee Revenues
Identify the use to which the fees will be put. If the use is financing facilities, the facilities shall be identified. That identification may, but need not, be made by reference to a capital improvement plan as specified in §65403 or §66002, may be made in applicable general or specific plan requirements, or may be made in other public documents that identify the facilities for which the fees are charged (§66001(a)(2) of the Act).
Fees proposed in this report, if enacted by the City, would be used to fund expanded transportation facilities to serve new development. Facilities funded by these fees are designated to be located within the City.
Benefit Relationship
Determine the reasonable relationship between the fees' use and the type of development project on which the fees are imposed (§66001(a)(3) of the Act).
We expect that the City will restrict fee revenue to the acquisition of land, construction of facilities, and purchase of related equipment, and services used to serve new development. Facilities funded by the fees are expected to provide a Citywide network of facilities accessible to the additional residents and workers associated with new development. Under the Act, fees are not intended to fund planned facilities needed to correct existing deficiencies. Thus, a reasonable relationship can be shown between the use of fee revenue and the new development residential and non-residential use classifications that will pay the fees.
Burden Relationship
Determine the reasonable relationship between the need for the public facilities and
City of Twentynine Palms Transportation Impact Fee Study 18 the types of development on which the fees are imposed (§66001(a)(4) of the Act).
Facilities need is based on a facility standard that represents the demand generated by new development for those facilities. For the transportation impact fee, demand is measured by a single facility standard that can be applied across land use types to ensure a reasonable relationship to the type of development. In this case, the fees are calculated to ensure that new development funds a consistent cost per trip of new facilities needed to serve each additional trip using the City’s roadways.
Proportionality
Determine how there is a reasonable relationship between the fees amount and the cost of the facilities or portion of the facilities attributable to the development on which the fee is imposed (§66001(b) of the Act).
The reasonable relationship between each facilities fee for a specific new development project and the cost of the facilities attributable to that project is based on the estimated new development growth the project will accommodate. Fees for a specific project are based on the project’s size and the corresponding increase in the number of vehicle trips. Larger new development projects result in higher trip generation resulting in higher fee revenue than smaller projects in the same land use classification. Thus, the fees ensure a reasonable relationship between a specific new development project and the cost of the facilities attributable to that project.
See the Trip Demand section in Chapter 2 for a description of how trip demand factors are determined for different types of land uses. See the Maximum Justified Fee Schedule section the same chapter for a presentation of the fees.

City of Twentynine Palms
Equity and Social Justice Element
for the
City General Plan
PURPOSE
The purpose of the Equity and Social Justice Element is to understand, appreciate, and address racism, xenophobia and other forms of injustice and social inequity, and to identify policies and programs that preserve and enhance the strength and integrity of the social fabric of Twentynine Palms. For ourselves and our fellow citizens, we wish to preserve and protect the fair and equitable treatment of all people with respect to community engagement, access to housing,
healthcare, public and social services, and other important resources and amenities in a healthy and safe environment. It is the intent of the element to ensure that all people living, working and visiting in our community are able to live in a safe and healthy environment, and to minimize the effects of environmental hazards and prejudice, social injustice regardless of race, ethnicity, religion, or income level.
BACKGROUND
This element analyzes issues associated with environmental and social justice in Twentynine Palms and addresses long-term community equity by establishing policies and programs that increase participation in the public decision-making process, reduce exposure to environmental hazards, and enhance access to quality education, healthy food, healthcare, affordable and decent housing, and fitness and recreational resources. The Equity and Social Justice Element provides information and guidance to realize the goals of equity and environmental and social justice in the community. “Environmental Justice means the fair
treatment of people of all races,
cultures, and incomes with respect to
the development, adoption,
implementation, and enforcement of
environmental laws, regulation, and
policies.”
—California Gov. Code 65040.12
City of Twentynine Palms
Equity and Social Justice Element
ESJ- 2
Issues of equity and environmental and social justice can arise from geographic and procedural inequities. Geographic inequities occur when areas and specific populations with high percentages of low-income residents, minority
residents, and/or immigrant communities are exposed to
poor environmental hazards and related health problems.
Procedural inequities occur when the same communities
face obstacles to meaningful input during the decisionmaking process on matters that directly affect their neighborhoods. Geographic and procedural inequities can be caused by development patterns that concentrate undesirable or unhealthy land uses in proximity to low-income or minority neighborhoods, the placement of desirable public amenities outside of disadvantaged communities and limited or non-existent political influence among certain demographic groups.
The environmental justice movement took form in 1968 and gained momentum throughout the 1970s and 1980s. In 1992 the US EPA officially defined “environmental justice.” In 1994, with President Clinton’s Executive Order 12898 “Federal Actions to Address Environmental Justice in Minority Populations,” the movement received significant attention at the federal level.
Twentynine Palms City Council Resolution 21-21
On October 12, 2021 the City Council of Twentynine Palms passed Resolution No. 21-21 “denouncing xenophobia/racial injustice and strengthening commitment to racial equity/diversity and affirming xenophobia a public health crisis.” This Equity and Social Justice Element sets forth policies and programs to implement Resolution 21-21 and ensures that as the City continues to grow, it maintains an active barrier against potential threats of racism and xenophobia. All residents of the City should feel welcome and safe from the geographic and procedural inequities that many other cities have seen.
Environmental Justice in California
California’s concern for environmental justice dates from the 1991 establishment of the state Environmental Protection Agency. California Government Code Section 65040.12(e) defines environmental justice as “the fair treatment of people of all races, cultures, and incomes with respect to the development, adoption, implementation, and enforcement of environmental laws, regulations and policies.” Since its beginning, the Environmental Justice Movement has broadened its focus beyond reducing the
disproportionate burdens of environmental pollution
experienced by certain communities to include social equity concerns such as the distribution of municipal services, access to affordable housing, parks and healthcare, and healthy food. It is now more broadly considered the
Environmental and Social Justice Movement. The California Environmental Protection Agency has established State
environmental justice policies and standards, and the
Governor’s Office of Planning and Research (OPR)
coordinates environmental justice programs statewide.
“Disadvantaged communities” means
an area identified by the California Environmental Protection Agency pursuant to Section 39711 of the Health
and Safety Code or an area that is a
low-income area that is
disproportionately affected by
environmental pollution and other
hazards that can lead to negative health
effects, exposure, or environmental
degradation
“That the federal government should
pursue a comprehensive approach to
advancing equity for all, including
people of color and others who have
been historically underserved
marginalized, and adversely affected by
persistent poverty and inequality.”
—Executive Order 13985
City of Twentynine Palms
Equity and Social Justice Element
ESJ- 3
California Government Code Section 65302(h) requires that if a city identifies “disadvantaged communities” within its General Plan area, the city’s General Plan must include an Environmental Justice Element, or related goals, policies and objectives integrated into other Plan elements. A more comprehensive discussion of “disadvantaged communities” as defined by California EPA is found below in the section titled, “Measuring Environmental and Social Inequities.”
SCOPE AND CONTENT
It is important to note at the outset that the General Plan Advisory Committee (GPAC) and the public have generally indicated that Twentynine Palms is an equitable and just community and does not suffer the same levels of social and economic segregation and inequities that stem from historic race and xenophobia-based policies as seen in many other communities. As with most communities, there are still undercurrents of racial bias and the impetus for this Equity and Social Justice Element comes from a collective desire to openly discuss these undercurrents. The intent is to raise the level of community awareness and foster greater cultural competency so that everyone who belongs to a minority group feels included and safe in the City. As Twentynine Palms is a relatively younger jurisdiction, the community finds that now is the time to put this perspective at the forefront of planning decisions.
The City’s Equity and Social Justice Element (ESJ Element) is related to many other 2040 General Plan elements, particularly Land Use, Circulation and Mobility, Housing, Air Quality and Climate Stability, Public Services and Facilities, Parks and Recreation, Safety, and Healthy and Sustainable Community and almost every other mandated and optional General Plan element. Decisions made related to the types of land uses, location, density and intensity of land uses, transportation systems, and street designs all contribute to public health and environmental justice. Essentially every decision the City makes regarding the General Plan involves in some way environmental and social justice and equity.
Per the established guidelines of the California Governor’s Office of Planning and Research, the ESJ Element provides an evaluation of certain baseline environmental and population characteristics including pollution burden, health and wellness, education attainment, employment, physical activity, access to safe outdoor spaces, and food security. The ESJ Element then defines goals, policies and programs based on public input from residents and others who attended the workshops and meeting.
Goals, Policies and Programs
The ESJ Element contains several goal statements that range from the overarching to discrete topics addressed in the element. In the context of a General Plan, a “goal” is a general expression of community values and direction, expressed as an end state (not actions). Goals can reflect a desired community state (adequate housing), and environmental conditions (clean air), an economic state (full employment), or a social goal (low crime rates). A goal in the General Plan is the most general statement of community values expressed as a desirable end-state condition to be achieved now or in the future.
The heart of the ESJ Element is contained within its policy statements. Policies further refine the goal statements and provide a clear direction for decision-making. Policies frequently include “shall” statements to provide unequivocal directives. Decision-making criteria, major development standards and funding priorities are best established by clear General Plan policies. Solid policy is based on a solid foundation of information. The analysis of data collected during the planning process for this element has provided the City with valuable knowledge about trends, existing conditions, and projections that policy is designed to address.

PUBLIC PARTICIPATION
Historically, members of minority
communities, those of lower economic
means and those otherwise disadvantaged in
the community have not had meaningful
voices in decisions that affect their
communities or environments. Many feel
disenfranchised and may not participate in
local decision-making processes, such as
elections, community workshops, or serve as
public officials. The causes of this relative
isolation of some groups from civic processes
may also be caused by a combination of
cultural and/or language barriers, lack of
information, inadequate understanding of civics and civil processes, lack of exposure to the decisionmaking process, and lack of outreach efforts on the part of community organizers.
A crucial component of developing and maintaining the Equity and Social Justice Element is public awareness and engagement via involvement in community governance and planning activities such as workshops, public study sessions and hearings. In these venues, all community members have been encouraged to participate. In addition, groups of stakeholders representing a range of public interests are encouraged to provide ongoing input.
Community Outreach
As a part of the development of this element, the City Council established GPAC comprised of five Twentynine Palms residents from a variety of backgrounds and experiences. The GPAC met as a group and also participated in community workshops held during development of this element. The GPAC discussed equity and social justice issues that are manifestations of racism, xenophobia, gender bias and other forms of prejudice. They also reviewed a variety of data, information, and considered a wide range of community input. Finally, the GPAC reviewed the Draft Equity and Social Justice Element prior to its review by the Planning Commission and City Council.
Community Workshops and Summary of Input
Community workshops on the Equity and Social Justice Element were held in the fall of 2022 and were well-attended by a broad cross-section of the community. Six topical stations were set up addressing equity and social justice in transportation, public services, healthcare, housing, food and nutrition, and education. Handouts were also provided on each topic and each station was staffed by either a planner or a GPAC member who facilitated discussion and recorded input. Attendees included residents, business owners, professionals and service providers who described their hopes, concerns and vision for the community. During many one-on-one and group sessions, comments were recorded on comment cards and large pads of paper. All comments were photographed and documented (see ESJ Element Appendix A: Summary of Public Outreach).

Following the community workshops, an additional public meeting was held in January 2023 to provide an additional opportunity for members of the community to provide personal testimony regarding issues of equity and social justice. Members spoke about personal experiences and gave suggestions on achieving and preserving an equitable and just community. Comments, concerns and recommendations were recorded on video and written documentation. The major themes raised included:
• Better communicating experiences and perspectives with one another and to protect the community from making the same mistakes as many larger and older cities have made; • Protect everyone and clearly communicate that racism and xenophobia are not tolerated in Twentynine Palms;
• Prevent biased law enforcement;
• Need to address discriminatory behavior in local schools; • Need for minority representation in the school district faculty; • Need to organize non-athletic activities for young people; • Need for mentorship and job training for young people; • Lack of childcare options;
• Lack of affordable housing;
• Unfair housing practices;
• Need to protect neighborhoods from high influx of short-term rental business; • Need for inclusive public art and murals; urgency to maintain the surrounding natural environment; concerns over the increase of trash, noise and light pollution; • Need for full-service grocery stores; inability to travel the distance to neighboring cities for services and amenities.
All input received from the community workshops and the public meeting are included in Appendix A of this element.
MEASURING SOCIAL AND ENVIRONMENTAL INEQUITIES
A wide range of metrics are used to measure how well a community is performing in addressing equity and social justice issues. To ensure that all residents of Twentynine Palms receive fair and equitable treatment with regard to the provision of safe housing, clean air and water, and access to public services and amenities, community decision-making processes, and environmental health, it is necessary to identify environmental, economic and social factors that place community members at a higher level of vulnerability. The methods of identifying these factors are described here.
CalEnviroScreen 4.0
CalEnviroScreen 4.0 is a science-based tool created by CalEPA and the Office of Environmental Health Hazard Assessment (OEHHA) to identify communities in California that are disproportionately affected by sources of pollution, and that are often especially vulnerable to pollution’s effects. It is a tool that can serve to provide context for the assessment of issues of equity and social justice.
City of Twentynine Palms
Equity and Social Justice Element
ESJ- 6
The tool measures 21 factors or
indicators to gauge the “Pollution
Burden” and the “Population
Characteristics” for each state census
tract. Pollution Burden and Population
Characteristics are assigned percentile
scores according to how each census
tract ranks among all the state census tracts.
1 Higher percentile scores indicate higher levels of
vulnerability. Census tracts with scores of 75% or higher (meaning 75th percentile among all state census tracts) are among the highest burdened census tracts and are designated as “disadvantaged communities” by CalEPA.
“Disadvantaged Communities”
SB 1000 defines “disadvantaged communities” as areas identified by the California Environmental Protection Agency (CalEPA) pursuant to Gov. Code Section 39711 of the Health and Safety Code, or “lowincome areas”. It includes those disproportionately affected by environmental pollution and other hazards, which can lead to negative health effects, exposure, or environmental degradation. SB 1000 further defines “low-income areas” as those with household incomes at or below 80 percent of the statewide median income, or with household incomes at or below the threshold designated as low income by the Department of Housing and Community Development’s list of state income limits adopted pursuant to Gov. Code Section 50093.
The CalEnviroScreen 4.0 (October 2021) shows that there are no “disadvantaged communities” within the City of Twentynine Palms city limits. The City’s census tracts have total CalEnviroScreen scores ranging between 10% and 50% which is better than 50 to 90 percent of the state’s census tracks; the highest scoring tract (40-50%) is located in the eastern portion of the City. The city limits and the surrounding sphere scored low enough (better) among a number of the data factors to warrant an overall lower (better) percentile score. However, several individual indicators within these aggregated data received higher (worse) scores and highlight specific environmental and socioeconomic vulnerabilities. These factors of concern are discussed below in greater detail.
POPULATION VULNERABILITY INDICATORS
For an in-depth analysis of socioeconomic factors unique to Twentynine Palms, see the City’s General Plan Housing
Element, Appendix A, Assessment of Fair Housing. The
factors listed below are discussed at length in the
assessment.

Population, Race and Ethnicity
As of the 2020 US Decennial Census, the
city’s population is approximately 28,065.
The population of Twentynine Palms
increased approximately 12% between
2010 and 2020.2 The population consists
of 56.5% males and 43.5% females, and
the median age is 24.2 years.
A slim majority of Twentynine Palms
residents are White (52%), with Hispanic
or Latino residents comprising 24.5% of
the population, and Black or African
Americans comprising 10.1%. Native
American residents make up 0.9%, Asians
2.8%, and Native Hawaiians and other
Pacific Islanders 2.1%.3
Population Indicators
CalEnviroScreen identifies vulnerable populations by measuring eight indictors which are divided into two categories: Sensitive Population Indicators and Socioeconomic Indicators. Four of the six Socioeconomic Indicators are discussed here: poverty, educational attainment, unemployment and housing burden. Sensitive populations include people who have certain health conditions such as heart disease, asthma, and those who have genetically compromised immune systems. One of Sensitive Population Indicators is discussed here, cardiovascular statistics, because the City’s percentile score ranks very high (worse) than the state average.

Figure 2: Twentynine Palms Census Tracks
Poverty is an important component to this Equity and Social Justice Element for two reasons. First, higher rates of poverty lead to higher rates of stress and compromised physical health. Second, the economically disadvantaged are less able to afford necessities such as transportation, adequate housing, nutritious food, childcare, medical care, and access to safe outdoor recreation areas. The six census tracts in Twentynine Palms rank relatively high among the state’s census tracks in terms of percent of the population living within the poverty level.
According to the U.S. Census Bureau, a household is considered to be living in poverty if the total income of household members is less than the poverty level before taxes. Due to higher costs of living in California, the poverty threshold is twice the federal poverty level. For example, the federal poverty level for a family of four is $27,750. In California, the poverty level for that same family is $55,500. Families with incomes ranging from the poverty level to 200 percent above the poverty are considered “low income.” Families living under the poverty line or just above the poverty line (“low income”) face similar circumstances of struggling to meet basic needs.

The median household income (MHI) for
Twentynine Palms is approximately 33% lower
than the county MHI and is below the federal
poverty level which is $55,500 for a family of
four. Furthermore, according to the Housing
and Community Development Department, the
MHI for Twentynine Palms is below the “low
income” level for a family of one. The poverty
rate for Twentynine Palms, 19.9%, is higher
than that of the county and state.4 This is due
to a combination of factors that include lower
costs of living, lower education attainment
level, and fewer higher paying job
opportunities.
Education attainment refers to the highest level of education a person has received. Higher education attainment correlates with higher paying careers and a degree of economic protection during periods of recession. For a municipality, this can lead to greater economic gains, higher tax revenue, and fewer requests for social services.
The table below compares high school and bachelor’s degree attainment from the national level to the local level.5 Twentynine Palms ranks higher (better) than the county and the state for percent of population earning a high school degree or higher, and just above the county for a bachelor’s degree or higher. The City ranks below the state level for bachelor’s degree or higher. A lower number of college graduates may correlate with fewer people earning higher wages.

Housing Burden is a measure of housing affordability which includes household income and housing costs. Housing costs include utilities, monthly rent or mortgage, interest, property taxes, insurance, and fees. A household is “cost-burdened” if the total amount of housing costs exceeds 30% of the household income, and those households where the housing costs exceed 50% of the household income are considered to be “severely cost-burdened.” For a complete report on Twentynine Palms Housing Burden, see the Appendix A “Assessment of Fair Housing” of the General Plan Housing Element 2021-2029.
The unemployment rate is an estimate of the percentage of people in the labor market who are not working but are available to work and have searched for employment over the previous four weeks. The table below compares 2021 and 2022 unemployment rates for nearby cities in San Bernardino County as well as the state. The unemployment rate for the City of Twentynine Palms ranks lower than other cities in the region and just above the county.

Employment and Geographic Isolation
While “isolation” may be a strong term, the City is located in a part of the county that is largely removed from the major urban metropolitan areas where the greatest level of economic activity, employment and wages are realized. The City is exploring various opportunities to bring more and better paying jobs to the community and is expected to improve the City’s employment standing in coming years.
Cardiovascular health data are obtained via statistics from emergency department visits and deaths related to cardiovascular events such as heart attacks. Cardiovascular disease points to other underlying health issues such as diet and access to healthy food, level of physical activity, smoking, and exposure to air pollution. All six census tracts in Twentynine Palms carry a percentile score of over 99%, which is extremely high (worse) for this health factor.

POLLUTION BURDEN INDICATORS
The CalEnviroScreen 4.0 Pollution Burden percentile score includes thirteen factors. Eight are categorized as Exposure Indicators and five are categorized as Environmental Effect Indicators. Exposure Indicators are pollutants that may come into contact with residents and expose residents to risks such as: ozone concentration in the air; PM 2.5 concentration in the air; suspended diesel particulate matter; drinking water contaminants; children’s exposure to lead paint in the home; toxic releasesfrom facilities; high-hazard agricultural pesticides. Environmental Effect Indicators are defined as “adverse environmental conditions caused by pollutants,” which include the following: toxic cleanup sites; solid waste sites and facilities; hazardous waste facilities and generators; impaired surface water bodies; and groundwater threats from leaking underground storage sites and cleanups.
The six census tracts comprising Twentynine Palms carry relatively low percentile scores for all but six of the Pollution Burden Indicators: ozone air pollution exposure, lead paint exposure, solid waste pollution, clean-ups, groundwater threats. The following table shows the CalEnviroScreen census tract pollution burden percentile scores for only those indicators that earned higher than average scores. A score of zero means that no threat was found in that tract. Indicators are further described below. Also see the City General Plan Air Quality Element.

Ozone is the most prevalent form of pollution in Twentynine Palms; San Bernardino County has higher levels of ozone than surrounding counties. Ozone forms in the atmosphere as a secondary pollutant when nitrogen oxides and volatile organic compounds react to ultraviolet light. Due to the increasing presence of the logistics industry and increased traffic on freeway systems, the county is highly susceptible to higher-than-average air pollution. Prevailing air currents tend to push pollutants eastward.
Ozone concentration in California ranges from 0.03 – 0.07 ppm. On average, the City’s ozone concentration is higher than 83% of all of the state’s census tracts. The ozone indicator is based on the summer months’ mean of the daily maximum 8-hour ozone concentration (ppm). This measurement is used to represent short-term ozone health impacts.
Lead is a toxic metal that occurs naturally in the environment. However, the highest levels of lead present in the environment are a result of human activities. Historically, lead has been used in house paint, plumbing, and as a gasoline additive. While lead levels have declined over the past five decades in the United States, it persists in older housing. Housing built prior to 1978 is more likely to have lead-based paint. The federal government banned the use of leaded pipe and solder in new plumbing systems in
City of Twentynine Palms
Equity and Social Justice Element
ESJ- 12
1986, but many remaining pipe networks in older cities and homes predate the policy. In Twentynine Palms approximately 60.8% of the housing units were constructed before 1989.6 There are no known safe levels of lead exposure. Young children are especially susceptible to the effects of lead exposure and can suffer adverse health effects, particularly in the brain and nervous system. This increased susceptibility is due to children’s unique exposure pathways, developing brains, and differences in the absorption of ingested lead. Children’s exposure to lead even at low levels can lead to a higher likelihood of lower IQ and educational performance ss, and symptoms of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD).
Cleanup sites are places that are contaminated with hazardous materials and require clean up by the property owners or government. The four cleanup sites found in two census tracks are formerly used defense sites which are now inactive. The Condor Field #3 northwest of the city requires action as of 2018 due to the presence of rocket fragments. These sites do not pose a threat to the surrounding human population at this time.7
Solid waste facilities are places where household garbage and similar kinds of waste are collected, processed, or stored. These include landfills and composting or recycling facilities. The five solid waste sites noted on CalEnviroScreen have been
deemed to either be closed, or, in the case
of the Twentynine Palms Transfer Station, to
be fully permitted and in compliance. One
additional site located on the Marine base is
managed by the Department of Defense.
Groundwater can be contaminated by leaks
from storage tanks either above or
underground that hold hazardous chemicals.
Twentynine Palms has a total of 67
groundwater cleanup sites both on the
Marine base (census tract 104.02) and in the
city limits (census tracks 104.21 and 22). All
cleanup sites have been remediated and
closed.8
CATEGORIES OF EQUITY AND SOCIAL
JUSTICE
The California Governor’s Office of Planning and Research (OPR) and CalEPA have identified several community planning categories that are essential to address in the pursuit of equity and social justice. 6 SCAG, “Local Housing Data for the City of Twentynine Palms,” April 2021. 7 Department of Toxic Substances Control, “EnviroStor,” Access February 3, 2023, https://www.envirostor.dtsc.ca.gov/public/profile_report?global_id=80001082 8 State Water Resources Control Board, “Geotracker,” Accessed February 3, 2023, https://geotracker.waterboards.ca.gov/map/?global_id=T10000004916#.

In no particular order, these include housing, food and nutrition, healthcare and availability, and public services and representation. Each of these categories and their importance to Twentynine Palms are described below. Also essential is access to recreational and open space amenities that help to further good health.
HOUSING
Housing Accessibility and Affordability
The following provides a profile of housing stock, rental vs. ownership housing, barriers to affordable housing, methods of increasing housing stock and affordability.
Review of the CalEnviroScreen 4.0 data for the City planning area indicates there are no “disadvantaged communities” located within the City or its sphere. Nonetheless, this element (and the Housing Element) include policies and programs intended to promote safe and sanitary housing, and to improve housing accessibility and affordability. Housing equity and sustainability are closely tied to location and access to non-residential services, including schools, childcare, healthcare, and shopping. Minimum standards of quality are also essential aspects of housing equity, as is affordability. Governmental and non-profit efforts serve to bridge the tension between quality and affordability.
The City can also take actions to preserve existing quality housing stock in addition to pursuing or participating in programs to create additional affordable housing. Enforcing land use and building code, seeking input from community groups, facilitating training for local jobs in green and sustainable construction and home retrofits, and participating in programs to assist with maintenance are examples of mechanisms to ensure quality housing stock.
Other steps the City can take to improve housing affordability include encouraging housing production and facilitating funding for affordable housing. The City actively works to streamline housing planning, permitting, and construction processes. Other effort the City supports are protecting renters from displacement and preserving existing affordable housing.
In 2022, the City adopted an updated Housing Element to the General Plan that is intended to address the housing needs of the community over the next eight years.
Housing Equity: Public Input
In general, workshop participants did not see racial discrimination as a major contributor to housing inequities in the City. They also acknowledged that the State of California has already made discrimination of any form illegal in the housing sector (fair housing laws, etc.). Most comments were centered around economic hardships. Housing prices and the cost of living continue to rise making it difficult for lower income households to secure affordable, stable housing in general. Hardships are exacerbated by the lack of employment opportunities and good wages, familial status and presence of family members to offer extra support in the home (single parent households have additional responsibilities). Some comments centered around the need for greater financial literacy in order to navigate the affordable housing landscape, financial aid opportunities, home ownership options, and improving one’s credit score. The rise of short-term vacation rentals were also identified as a trend that both benefits neighborhoods containing abandoned homes, but also adversely affects neighborhood cohesion and housing affordability.
City of Twentynine Palms
Equity and Social Justice Element
ESJ- 14
FOOD AND NUTRITION
Community input indicates that the City is
in need of a greater diversity of grocery
stores and other food outlets that can
better provide a variety of quality,
affordable and accessible sources of
healthy food. Consistent with community
concerns, it is found that those living in
rural areas, low-income neighborhoods,
and communities of color are more likely
to have limited access to healthy and
affordable foods.9 This is especially
important for the City population where cardiovascular health is rated poorly across all planning area census tracts (see Table 1, above). Other adverse health conditions associated with inadequate or unhealthful diet include obesity, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, heart disease, diabetes, and cancer.
There are a variety of approaches to improving access to healthy foods including thoughtful zoning, streamlining approval of grocery stores and related uses, policies that increase access to farmers’ markets, and promoting community gardens and small-scale urban farms. Communities can also work with local convenience and full-service stores to increase affordable fresh produce selection, and establishing food procurement policies. Residents suggested that the City’s website offer general information about local food assistance programs and food pantries. Several comments also suggested that the City provide space for food preparation and cooking classes.
Obstacles to an expansion of fresh food outlets include the City’s remote location, its relative isolation from other markets, and the limited market to attract competition and variety. Improving access to locally grown food can also help reduce trip generation and miles traveled, promote locally sourced food, and support mixed use for food retail, farmers markets, and other food stores.
HEALTHCARE SERVICES
The health of the community is dependent on many factors, including the food we eat, the water we drink and the air we breath. Our health is also affected by our opportunities for and access to open space, recreation, exercise and socializing. For instance, planning area data show that the community suffers from a high percentage of those with cardiovascular disease. Health disparities include differences in physical health and mental health status among distinct segments of the population, including differences that occur by gender, age, race or ethnicity, sexual orientation, gender identity, education or income, disability or functional impairment, or geographic location, or the combination of any of these factors.

Healthcare Equity: Public Input
Public comments pertaining to healthcare centered on a general lack of information about local medical facilities and the type of help that is available to patients at these local facilities. Other comments concerned the fact that the only hospital in the region, Hi-Desert Medical Center, is up to twenty-five minutes away in Yucca Valley. The need for mental health outreach and services was also voiced.
Hi-Desert Medical Center (HDMC)
Local and area providers of mental health counseling and other services include Hi-Desert Medical Center, a 59-bed acute care located 12.5± miles west of the center of the City in Joshua Tree. HDMC is a part of the Desert Care Network, which includes Desert Regional Medical Center in Palm Springs and JFK Memorial Hospital in Indio. HDMC provides a wide range of inpatient and outpatient diagnostic, treatment and rehabilitation services, home health and hospice services, and a variety of community outreach programs. HDMC also has extensive online resources on healthy living, including exercise and diet, cardio-vascular health, emotional and behavior health, and others.
Morongo Basin Healthcare District/Morongo Basin Community Health (MBCH) With service facilities in Twentynine Palms and Yucca Valley, MBCH is a service of the Morongo Basin Healthcare District, a public healthcare district formed under Government Code Sections 32000-32492.
MBCH staffs and operates clinics at the Morongo Basin Community Health Center and provides an array of health services, including primary care, pediatric care, specialty care, dental, and emotional/behavioral health care. MBCH centers also accepts Medi-Cal/IEHP, Tricare and most private insurances. A sliding fee-scale is available to those with fixed or no income so that anyone may be seen for a nominal cost. Clinics also provide assistance in completing applications for medical insurance benefits. Of particular interest to City residents is the availability of prenatal and pediatric care, two areas of focus at MBHC clinics. They also offer a free LIFT Transportation program that can pick clients up from their home and take them to our program, free-of-charge. (Web site:

EDUCATION, EQUITY AND JUSTICE
Morongo Unified School District (MUSD)
The City and Sphere are located within the Morongo Unified School District, which encompasses the Morongo Basin. MUSD has eleven elementary schools, two middle schools, two comprehensive high schools, one continuation high school, two state preschool programs, and a special education preschool program. With a diverse student body, the District provides a wide array of programs, including special education, English Language Learners Program, athletics, advanced placement, GATE, and many others. MUSD facilities in the City include an elementary, middle and high school.
The MUSD Dashboard provides a variety of data on District schools and student performance for the City’s elementary, junior (middle) and high school. In 2019, District-wide, 71.2 percent of MUSD students were characterized as being “socioeconomically disadvantaged”, while 69.4 percent of Twentynine
City of Twentynine Palms
Equity and Social Justice Element
ESJ- 16
Palms High School students were so characterized.
10 The dashboard measures rates of absenteeism and
suspension, language and math competency, and a variety of teacher/staff performance standards.
District-wide, chronic absenteeism was 14.3 percent (a 3% decline over previous year) and graduation rates were 81.2 percent.
Under the analysis category of
“behavior” the District reviews
rates of chronic absenteeism and
suspensions. In 2021, the District
recognized that “The district's
high suspension/expulsion rate
and chronic absenteeism rate are
barriers to students accessing the
broad course of study as students
must be in class to participate fully
in their own education.” AfricanAmerican students had the highest suspension rate (14.6%) in 2019. For years 2017,2018/2019, the average suspension rate for all students was 9.23 percent. In response to these challenges, the District has implemented a multi-year system that addresses behaviors, attendance, and academics.
The MUSD has established a restorative justice youth court to avoid or minimize expulsions and improve access to a broad course of study. Performance goals and metrics are assigned to each school so that English language arts (ELA) and math achievement, as well as attendance and suspension goals, are addressed monthly at the staff meetings and professional developments. The District’s Saturday School program provides enhanced academics for students with excessive absences. This District also has expanded alternative education options that allow students to access the broad course of study through flexible programs, both independently and remotely, as well as in-person or using a hybrid method.
Beyond the District’s own recognition of the suspension and related problems, and the District’s programs and activities it is pursuing, comments and concerns have been raised by members of the public attending public workshops and GPAC meetings on issues of equity and social justice in the District. The disproportionate number of African-American students who are suspended has been attributed to a lack of diversity in the teaching and counseling pool at the District. The District and its students will benefit from a conscious effort to recruit, employ and retain more teachers, counselors and administrators of color who can inspire students of color and advocate for their success.
While student performance metrics change from year to year, the data and information collected by the District and the state clearly indicate the need to address inequities in instruction and student behavior.
Household income is linked to academic achievement. Schools tend to focus on raising test scores and attendance rates as public funding is aligned with these metrics. Cities often focus on increasing economic opportunities in the hopes of increasing property values and tax bases. Both are necessary 10 California School Dashboard web site, accessed 12.29.22. https://www.caschooldashboard.org/reports/36677770000000/2018

foci. However, there is a need to target poverty specifically and to help lower income families with school-aged children access resources such as childcare, tutoring, after school programs and enrichment activities, special education, technology, and job training.
Cooper Mountain College (CMC)
Cooper Mountain College (CMC) is a California Community College operated by the Copper Mountain Community
College District and located 10 miles west of the City. CMC is fully accredited by the Accrediting Commission for
Community and Junior Colleges of the Western Association of Schools and Colleges. Many of the CMC courses are
transferable to the California State University and at the University of California system. In addition to the main campus east of Joshua Tree, CMC also operates a satellite campus at the Marine Corps Air Ground Combat Center with classes open to both military personnel and civilians. In 2022, The college currently serves approximately 6,000 enrolled students annually with 30 full-time faculty and 100 adjunct faculty. CMC also offers more than a dozen scholarship
programs that can be found on its website (see below).
The CMC Military Base Office located on base provides services to active-duty military students, military dependent family members, and civilians. Services include academic advising, application processing, course registration, counseling, Tuition Assistance program processing and library book check-outs from the CMC Greenleaf Library. CMC offers a multitude of foundational and transferable classes at the Base.
Textbooks for these courses are on reserve in the Base Library. Civilian students may also attend CMC classes offered on base with official verification of enrollment in the course. A basic skills program in mathematics, reading, and writing is also taught at the CMC Marine campus.
In addition to substantial curricula in science, humanities and the liberal arts, CMC also offers the following programs:
OCCUPATIONAL/VOCATIONAL EDUCATION: The college offers technical training and education in fields justified by student demand and enrollment. The college’s aim is vocational competence for students and an appreciation of citizenship responsibilities. Students may work toward: (a) earning a certificate and/or (b) an associate degree. Refresher courses are also offered, as well as courses in which new and/or upgraded skills are required to take advantage of employment opportunities. Some of the courses completed will transfer to four-year institutions.
ADULT EDUCATION: Many adults are choosing to return to college to acquire new and upgrade old skills and knowledge sets. The program focuses on improved skills and knowledge in reading, writing, math, English as a Second Language, High School Completion, and preparation for the General Education Development (GED) Test. In this regard, students can take college courses at CMC to fulfill high school credit requirements.
“Copper Mountain College commits to
closing the achievement and
opportunity gaps that exist in the
education system by intentionally
focusing on disproportionately
impacted and historically marginalized
student groups. The college further

Education Equity: Community Input
Overall, the concerns expressed by members of the community centered on a lack of funding and resources for activities, arts and cultural programs, and after school programs for all ages from preschool through college. Residents said they need more educational and cultural options kids and young adults, and expressed concerns that there are very few extra-curricular activities and advance placement (AP) courses offered at school and that students may not be ready for college. Residents also commented that teens and young adults need additional support in the forms of after school activities, arts and cultural programs, career counseling, and financial literacy. Some participants stated that there are not enough childcare and early childhood education options, and that this prevents parents from pursuing work and higher education. This also delays the educational growth of children. Importantly, residents commented that the schools need to work harder to attract more African-American (and other persons of color) as teachers and administrators. This would positively affect minority students and foster a more diverse culture for everyone.
PUBLIC SERVICES AND EQUAL REPRESENTATION
Governmental representatives and service providers should look like the various members of their community. This does not mean that racial, ethnic or socioeconomic groups should be strictly numerically represented but that in general they should reflect the makeup of the community. Gender balance is also important, including recognizing and involving members of the LGBTQ community. The City has been well represented by its diverse population; however, there are many opportunities to involve more women and persons of color in the governance of the City.
Public Services: Community Input
Participants at workshops stated that the City needs more local, community-based law enforcement rather than the county sheriff who is perceived as not as accountable and not as responsive or compassionate. Comments also encouraged development of local law enforcement that would be more dynamic in providing a greater diversity of officers, and officers trained in a wider variety of community policing strategies to de-escalate situations. Having an unarmed crisis intervention team was also suggested.
Public safety and law enforcement are rapidly evolving to establish and implement new approaches to law enforcement and intervention. These include Support Team Assisted Response (STAR) programs that send a health clinician and paramedic to respond to certain 911 calls about non-emergency and nonviolent behavior calls. Police officers and 911 operators are redirecting calls for minor and nondangerous complaints to STAR teams. Recent research on implementation of STAR programs indicates a drop in reports of minor offenses by one-third in cities with STAR programs.

Other recurring comments centered on the City Council. Attendees felt that Councilmembers should be more accessible and communicative. Recommendations include dissemination of more information more frequently about events and meetings. Also, it was suggested that the City Council could demonstrate greater support for minority communities by attending events sponsored by minority groups and organizations in addition to attending the City-sponsored events. Moreover, strong support was voiced for making the community’s downtown building murals more representative of the City’s population by including people of color and art by and for minority residents. Public input also called for more community programs supporting youth, the arts and culture. It was also suggested that the City consider holding public meetings after work hours rather than during the work day.
Public Service: Next Steps
By continuing to diversify the positions held by elected and appointed officials, and positions at City Hall and elsewhere in the community, the City inspires and affirms principles of fair and equitable treatment by our local government. Formal opportunities to expand the diversity, equity and inclusiveness of local government and Services can be assured by institutionalizing equity and social justice. This can be accomplished, in part, through the establishment of a Council-appointed Equity and Social Justice Advisory Committee.
TRANSPORTATION
In part, local transportation constraints are caused by the dispersed urban pattern in the Morongo Basin and the
substantial distances between urban areas. Decades of
land use planning have resulted in a pattern
characterized by and highly dependent on the
automobile as the only viable transportation option. This has resulted in high environmental, economic, health,
and social costs. Within the community, land use compatibility should take into account the value of mixed-use development, higher residential densities and more efficient use of municipal infrastructure.
As with other challenges to urban land use, diversity
is an important principle that can address a wide
range of issues, including proximity of homes to
schools and shopping, ability to walk or bike to a
destination, including to schools and parks,
convenience shopping, and for health and
recreation. The General Plan Circulation Element
includes goals and policies that promote
coordination with the Morongo Basin Transit
Authority (MBTA) on the expansion of transit service
within and between basin communities. It also
promotes ride-sharing and park and ride facilities.
Bus stop designs that are climate-appropriate are
also promoted in the Circulation Element. Efficient
and accessible transit is essential in the City’s broadly distributed land uses and seasonally hot climate.

Active Transportation Options
Active transportation refers to non-motorized means
of getting about, including walking and bicycling.
Important considerations include walkability, access,
convenience, connections and facilities that easily
accommodate a wide variety of trips. Non-motorized
transportation routes, including trails and Class I
through II bike paths, also serve as a recreational
amenity that encourages exercise and exploring the
community. Beyond their practical use for people to
get around, trails and bike paths also provide greater
function and more efficient use of the City’s street
system, accommodating a wider range of users instead of just motorized vehicles. This multi-modal transportation system also enhances equity and social justice by lower another barrier to full participation in the life and business of the City.
Transportation: Community Input
Numerous community members cited the link between transportation options and economic opportunity. Transportation is viewed as the biggest challenge for low-income residents and families living in rural parts of the community. The transportation network mostly works for car-owners but becomes extremely challenging for anyone that doesn’t own a car or for families that have only one vehicle. Transportation challenges are compounded by the spread out, isolated geography of the City.
Local employment opportunities are currently limited and the City either needs to support more local jobs, or residents need more options to commute to other larger employment centers (Coachella Valley).
Hours of service for some bus routes were also cited as too limited to make transit to work feasible.
Service is not available early enough in the morning or late enough at night.
COMMUNITY SUPPORT AND COHESION
What can cities do to enhance and facilitate community cohesion? Cities can invest in reaching out to the community regardless of the potential revenue stream, or lack thereof.
Ideas from the workshop that arose:
• City staff can help promote community events that are not necessarily sponsored by the city itself.
• City staff and council can attend community events are not sponsored by the city. • Public service employees can attend events, stop by and say hello, as a way to reach out and promote a friendlier or more approachable “vibe.”
• The city can offer venues for workshops, community gardens, school programs, etc. • Financial literacy workshops
• Navigating the housing market workshops
• Juneteenth celebration in the park
• Display art by local tribes

FUTURE DIRECTIONS
The primary purpose of the Equity and Social Justice Element is to address systemic racism, xenophobia and other forms of discrimination and injustice and eliminate and preclude the harm certain groups of people face related to access to affordable housing, food and healthcare, as well as educational and employment opportunities. Traditionally, this element also addresses the burdens of natural resource extraction, pollution, the siting of waste, transportation, workplace hazards, expropriation of land, etc.
In addition, it is imperative to prevent future inequities by promoting the development and enforcement of appropriate laws and policies.
The Goals, Polices, and Programs below set forth guidelines for key areas of equity and social justice and aid the City in addressing related issues. Although these policies and programs will help the City meet certain goals, effective environmental justice cannot be achieved by simply adopting a series of generalized policies and goals.

• 29! Proposal
BACKGROUND:
The 29! Sculpture is an iconic symbol of the City of Twentynine Palms. In the past several months, the Public Arts Advisory Council (PAAC) has done an evaluation of the condition of the sculpture, as well as its location.
In brief, the PAAC determined that the sculpture is in definite need of repair. It is the determination of the PAAC that, in its current location, the sculpture is difficult for visitors to find and have access to. Accordingly, the PAAC has come up with two options as to the location of the sculpture:
1) Leave the sculpture where it is, but install a public parking lot so that visitors can access it; or 2) Move the sculpture into the Freedom Plaza area, potentially next to the 29 Beer Company location.
ENVIRONMENTAL:
None.
ALTERNATIVES:
The City Council could choose to:
1) Leave the 29! Sculpture where it is, repair it, and install a public parking lot; 2) Move the 29! Sculpture to Freedom Plaza and repair it. 3) Provide another alternative for the sculpture. Page 193 of 344 FISCAL IMPACT:
The PAAC estimates that it will cost approximately $4,000 to repair the sculpture. If the sculpture is moved, it would cost approximately $10,000. If the sculpture remains where it is and a parking lot is installed, the cost could exceed $100,000.

• Policy No. 1
• Fee Waiver Policy Update
BACKGROUND:
The City fee waiver policy was discussed during the City Council meeting that was held on April 23, 2024. The City Council requested additional information to be included in the policy update for discussion and potential action.
ENVIRONMENTAL:
None.
ALTERNATIVES:
The City Council may choose to keep the current fee waiver policy dated September of 1989, which allows for unlimited free facility rentals to qualified organizations.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The City currently subsidizes many programs and activities. Placing a maximum cap on free rental days allows the City to recapture a small percentage of operation and maintenance costs for facilities. The continuance of allowing unlimited free facility rentals is not financially sustainable.

RENTAL FEE CREDIT
Each facility does not have the same rental fee. If a dollar amount for rental fees are allotted to each organization annually, multiple rentals at multiple facilities would be allowed with a potential balance due.
This would require manual override by staff within the reservation system and potential accounting errors within the reservation system.
Example: $500 rental credit per organization annually.
Luckie Park Activity Center 4 hours $104.00
Rotary Shelter (all day) $141.00
Patriotic Hall 4 hours $104.00
Gymnasium 4 hours $566.00
Total $915.00
Balance Due $415.00

FREEDOM PLAZA/COMMUNITY CENTER

RECOMMENDATIONS:
• City Council place a maximum cap on the total amount of days within a calendar year that qualified organizations are able to rent City facilities without paying a rental fee.
• If multiple rental days are approved, consecutive rental days should be allowed.
• Not to offer annual dollar amount or “rental fee credit”. This would further complicate the approval process as each facility does not share the same rental fee.

Two-Year General Fund Budget
for Fiscal Year 2023-24 _ 2024-
25. BACKGROUND:
The City Manager and Finance Director are presenting the preliminary second year budget revisions for the General Fund. FY 2024-25 is the second year of the two-year budget for both the General Fund and Special Funds. The two-year budget has been attached to this report for Council's reference. The proposed budget revisions for Special Funds will be presented to the City Council on June 11th for review and approval. Prior to the adoption of the budget revisions, a Public Hearing will be scheduled on May 28 and June 11 for the General Fund and Special Funds, respectively. The City Council is required to approve the revisions before the beginning of the new Fiscal Year which begins July 1, 2024.
The City’s revenue revisions were updated using the latest estimates from San Bernardino County (Property Tax), HDL (Sales Tax), and local trends (Transient Occupancy Tax – TOT). TOT trends are the most difficult to predict, primarily due to the unpredictability of the current economic market. The preliminary expenditure revisions were developed by utilizing historical spending by department, with input and review by the department heads, direction from the City Council during Strategic Planning, and the City Council budget committee (Mayor Bilderain and Mayor Pro Tem Klink). Page 233 of 344
The initial two-year general fund budget had a surplus of $5K; however, the revisions have increased the surplus to $160K. Overall, this is a balanced 2024-25 budget with revised revenues of $13.8M vs. $13.3M originally adopted budget, not including reserves and transfers in. The largest revenue increases from the adopted budget are Vehicle License Fees in Lieu of Property Tax - $295K, Property Taxes - $78K, Interest from Investments - $50K, and Franchise Fees - $46K. With the unpredictability of short-term rental trends, Staff took a more conservative approach for TOT revenue and left it the same as the original budget of $1.9M. Expenditures are presented at $13.3M for 2024-25 adopted budget vs. $13.6M revised budget, not including transfers out. The largest increases are in the following departments: $159K in the Public Works (PW) Administration department due to the reclassification of employees with higher wages from PW Streets to PW Admin, as well as the reallocation of an additional 24% of wages and benefits previously paid with Gas Tax funding; and $90K in the Community Development department due to the carryover of funding from the prior fiscal year for housing & homelessness programs. In addition to the aforementioned adjustments, the original budget had a projected costof-living adjustment (COLA) of only 2.5%, however, inflation hasn't declined much since last year, and the current CPI for the month of March 2024 is 4.3%, which has been incorporated into the wages presented in the proposed budget.
General Fund Position and Positives/Challenges
The City of Twentynine Palms anticipates having $11.7M in reserves at the end of Fiscal Year 2023-24.
Approximately, 73% or $10.8M of the total reserves are unassigned for future uses. The unassigned balance is in line with the City's reserve policy of 50-55%. Staff is recommending Council to assign a total of $199K in funds from the FY 2023-24 fund balance for the following purposes: $50K for Community Event grants, $50K for housing and homelessness programs, $52K for Risk Management activities; and carry over to FY 2024-25 the $32K for the Navigation Center and $15K for the portable showers that were previously programed from the housing and homelessness program. The $557K in the restricted fund balance are funds received through the Local Law Enforcement Supplemental Account (LLESA) and Seized Assets programs for frontline municipal police services. The $94K in the nonspendable fund balance is the land purchased from the Successor Agency as part of the Lear Traffic Signal Installation.
Staff is anticipating another moderate growth year with Marine Corps Air Ground Combat Center (MCAGCC) and Joshua Tree National Park continuing to have attendance growth.
The biggest challenge with the budget is the continued rising inflation, which does not align with the City's charges for services. Another challenge is the continued decline in Gas Tax funding, which currently covers only 50% of the Public Works wages & benefits. In the past, 100% of the Public Works wages and benefits were covered by Gas Tax and Article 8 funding combined. With the elimination of the Article 8 in FY 22/23 and the reduction of Gas Tax funding, the General Fund has been absorbing more and more of these costs. Furthermore, on April 2023, the California Air Resources Board (CARB) adopted the Advanced Clear Fleets (ACF) regulation to accelerate zero-emission truck markets. The regulation applies to State and local government agencies that own, lease, or operate in California, one or more vehicles with a gross vehicle weight rating greater than 8,500 lbs. The City must comply with ACF requirements, and beginning January 1, 2024, the City must ensure that 50% of the annual vehicle purchases per calendar year are zero-emissions, and 100% of the annual vehicle purchases must be zero-emissions by January 1, 2027. The fiscal impact that this regulation will have on the City has not been determined, however, City Staff is projecting a significant increase not only in acquisition costs but in operating costs upon implementation of this regulation.
