SUBJECT: Proclamation Recognizing February as Black History Month in the City of Ukiah.
DEPARTMENT: City Manager /
Admin PREPARED BY: Maria Ceja, Administrative Analyst
PRESENTER: Douglas F. Crane, City Council, Mayor
ATTACHMENTS:
1. Proclamation
Summary: The Ukiah City Council will issue a proclamation recognizing February 2025 as Black History Month in the City of Ukiah. This proclamation acknowledges the central role of African, Caribbean, and Black Americans in shaping our nation's history, culture, and society. Black History Month provides an opportunity to honor the resilience, achievements, and contributions of these communities while inviting the Ukiah community to participate in celebrating this important observance.
Background: Black History Month traces its origins to 1926 when Dr. Carter G. Woodson, a prominent historian and scholar, launched Negro History Week. This effort was expanded to the full month of February in 1976 and has since been nationally recognized by every American president.
Discussion: In issuing this Black History Month proclamation (Attachment 1), the City of Ukiah underscores its commitment to honoring the diverse histories and cultures that enrich our community. The Black History Month 2025 theme, "African Americans and Labor," highlights the vital contributions of African Americans to the labor movement and economic progress throughout history. The City also encourages residents to participate in local and national efforts to celebrate Black History Month, recognizing the value of diversity, equity, and inclusion in fostering a stronger community.
Recommended Action: Issue a Proclamation of the Ukiah City Council recognizing February as Black History Month.

GENERAL PLAN ELEMENTS (GP): N/A
February 2025 as “Black History Month” in the City of Ukiah Whereas, Black History Month is observed in February of each year and is a national annual celebration and recognition of achievements by African Americans; and Whereas, Black History Month seeks to recognize the central role that African Americans have played in our nation’s history and to honor the many achievements and contributions African Americans have made and continue to make in our society; and Whereas, Black History Month can be traced back to 1926. Designed to coincide with the celebratory birthdays of Abraham Lincoln and Frederick Douglass, Dr. Carter G. Woodson launched Negro History Week in February of 1926 to encourage the teaching of Black history across communities and public schools. Woodson, the son of former slaves who became the second African American to earn a Ph.D. from Harvard University, recognized the importance of establishing an initiative that could be celebrated annually and on a national scale. Woodson , a writer and scholar of the “Father of Black History Month,” initiated the celebration. The celebration has expanded to include the entire month of February; and
Whereas, since 1976, every American president has designated February as Black History Month and has endorsed a specific theme; and
Whereas, the Black History Month 2025 theme, ‘African Americans and Labor’, honors the significant contributions of African Americans to the labor movement and recognizes their resilience and achievements. This theme highlights figures such as A. Philip Randolph, who organized the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters, the first predominantly African American labor union; and Claudette Colvin, whose courageous actions as a young seamstress inspired the Montgomery Bus Boycott. It also celebrates the ingenuity of inventors like Granville T. Woods, whose innovations in railway technology revolutionized transportation; and Madam C.J. Walker, an entrepreneur who built a thriving beauty empire while providing employment opportunities for thousands of African Americans; and
Whereas, by reflecting on this theme, we honor the struggles and triumphs of African Americans in labor history and the ongoing fight for equity and justice in workplaces across the country; and Whereas, Black History Month celebrates the many achievements and contributions made by African Americans, including our local heroes; and
Whereas, we welcome the community to participate in the celebration and recognition of Black History Month. Additional information and resources are available on platforms such as the Mendo Black Lives Matter Facebook page.
Therefore be it resolved, that the City Council of the City of Ukiah, hereby proclaims February 2025, as
Black History Month in the City of Ukiah
Signed and sealed, this 5th day of February in the year Two Thousand and Twenty-Five.

Summary: Council will consider approval of a six (6) year agreement with Stryker Corporation for ProCare preventive maintenance and repair for a total cost of $92,962.80 plus tax.
Background: The Ukiah Valley Fire Authority recently added several pieces of equipment built by the Stryker Corporation for the outfitting of our Inter-Facility Transfer (IFT) ambulances to match and be compatible with equipment we currently utilize.
Discussion: In the meeting on September 4, 2024, the Council authorized the Fire Authority’s acquisition of three (3) Lifepak 15 cardiac monitor/defibrillators, three (3) Power Pro 2 Cots, and three (3) MTS Power Load systems. At the time of purchase, ongoing preventive maintenance services were not included in the cost. The total contract amount of $92,962.80 plus tax reflects the full cost over a six-year period (Attachment 1).
In accordance with Lifepak's policy and contractual terms, the entire amount for preventive maintenance and repair services must be paid upfront, rather than being distributed across multiple years. Funds are budgeted through the Inter-Facility Transfer program’s enterprise fund.
Staff recommends that the Council approve a six-year agreement with Stryker Corporation for the ProCare preventive maintenance and repair services for a total cost of $92,962.80.
Recommended Action: Approve a six-year agreement with Stryker Corporation for ProCare preventive maintenance and repair services for a total cost $92,962.80 plus tax.

SUBJECT: Approve the Purchase of Cisco Meraki Cameras from Rhino Networks in the Amount of $182,273.29 and Approve Corresponding Budget Amendment.

Summary: Council will consider approving the purchase of thirty-five Cisco Meraki cameras from Rhino Networks in the amount of $182,273.29, and corresponding budget amendment.
Background: The City of Ukiah's current camera system has reached the end of its lifecycle, with many units now failing due to aging hardware. Replacement is critical to ensure continued security and operational effectiveness.
Discussion: The City's current on-premises camera system is at its end of life. In order to stay compliant with California state law, the City is also in need of storage to provide access to 24-7-365 audio-video (A/V) footage.

Key Observations
They following are key observations as a result of the review of the above information:
Meraki:
Total five-year cost includes:
• Hardware (MV93 Outdoor Camera): $618.80 per camera (prices will vary by model but Cisco will maintain our pricing that is locked in), totaling $21,658.20 for 35 cameras. • MV Enterprise License (5 years): $451.21 per camera, totaling $15,792.35 for 35 cameras. • MV 365-Day Cloud Archive License (5 years): $3,973.86 per camera, totaling $139,085.10 for 35 cameras.
• Combined total five-year cost: $182,273.29.
• 1-Year Cost Per Camera: $618.80, including prorated licensing.
Flock:
• Subscription-only model results in recurring costs with no hardware ownership. • Five-year total cost is $525,000, more than 3 times the cost of Meraki.
Avigilon (Gaynor) (1-Year Retention):
• Total first-year cost: $215,718.98 due to high licensing and hardware fees. • Five-year total cost: $656,032.48, more than 3 times the cost of Meraki.
Verkada:
• Cost per camera varies between $4,398 and $5,098, depending on features and storage options. • Unknown Additional Costs: Extended Cloud Backup Licensing is required to achieve 365-day retention.
Verkada is not transparent with its pricing, but 11 licenses per camera to equal 1-year of retention would be necessary, likely increasing the total five-year cost significantly beyond Cisco Meraki. • Lack of pricing transparency makes cost projections unreliable.
Based on this analysis, it is Staff's recommendation for Council to approve the purchase of the Cisco Meraki cameras from Rhino Networks in the amount of $182,273.29.
Please refer to Attachment 1 for a copy of the quote. If approved, the system will provide:
1. Security and Reliability: The Cisco Meraki camera solution offers advanced security features such as end-to-end encryption, role-based access control, and real-time alerting capabilities. These features are
critical to protecting sensitive footage while significantly reducing vulnerabilities inherent in the current onpremises system, which is at the end of its lifecycle. Additionally, the reliability of the Meraki system ensures consistent and uninterrupted coverage, providing peace of mind for public safety.
2. Scalability and Integration: Cisco Meraki provides unmatched scalability to address both current and future needs. Its seamless integration with other Meraki devices already deployed within the City’s IT infrastructure creates a unified management platform. This single dashboard not only streamlines operations but also reduces the administrative burden on IT Staff, allowing for efficient and centralized oversight of all connected devices.
3. Cost Savings and Operational Efficiency: Adopting Cisco Meraki will result in significant cost savings for the City. The solution eliminates reliance on costly third-party support by enabling in-house management through an intuitive interface and access to Cisco’s TAC support. Operational efficiencies include remote monitoring, automated firmware updates, and reduced downtime through proactive detection of hardware and software issues. Additionally, the system’s energy-efficient design contributes to lower power consumption, further enhancing cost savings.
4. Compliance with State Laws: The Cisco Meraki solution ensures full compliance with California state laws governing audio-video media, including strict requirements for data retention, access control, and privacy protections. This compliance mitigates legal risks while positioning the City as a leader in adopting responsible and transparent practices.
5. Enhanced Storage Capabilities: The system’s robust storage capabilities address the City’s growing demands for 24/7 audio-video (A/V) footage retention. With a combination of on-device storage and secure cloud-based options, the solution provides redundancy and eliminates the risk of data loss. These capabilities ensure the City’s ability to meet operational and regulatory requirements.
6. Long-Term Strategic Goals: This project aligns seamlessly with the City’s long-term IT modernization strategy, prioritizing cybersecurity, streamlined operations, and future-ready infrastructure investments.
Additionally, the adoption of Cisco Meraki supports smart city initiatives by offering advanced analytics and integration with other IT devices, laying the groundwork for further technological innovation.
7. In-House Installation and Maintenance: City Staff will take full responsibility for the installation and maintenance of the Cisco Meraki video system. This eliminates the need for outside vendors, significantly reducing additional costs and ensuring that the system is managed by personnel who understand the City’s unique operational requirements. Leveraging the expertise of existing Staff not only enhances cost savings, but also ensures rapid response times and continuity of service.
Given the critical need for replacement, cost savings, operational efficiencies, and transparency in pricing, proceeding with this purchase will address the immediate risk of hardware failures as well as secure a modern, scalable, and cost-effective video solution that meets the City's immediate needs and long-term operational goals. Note, the scalability and modernization of the system will allow for additional cameras and locations to be added as needed.
Staff recommends Council approve the purchase of thirty-five Cisco Meraki cameras from Rhino Networks in the amount of $182,273.29, and corresponding budget amendment.

Summary: Council will consider approving the purchase of one 2025 Ford F-150 Lightning Pro Series Crew Cab for the amount of $60,964.56, utilizing awarded funds from State Community Development Block Grant #21-CDBG-NH-20004, and approval of corresponding budget amendment.
Background: On April 7, 2021, Council adopted Resolution No. 2021-12, authorizing the submittal of an application to the California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD)'s Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) program for the funding of two activities - $500,000 for a housing rehabilitation program and $500,000 for a code enforcement program. The City was awarded the $1 million CDBG grant on September 1, 2022, and on September 9, 2022, Standard Agreement #21-CDBG-NH-20004 (Attachment 1) was executed between the City and the State.
Proposed within the City's original application for the code enforcement program was to fully restore code enforcement services and to stand up a proactive code enforcement division within the Community Development Department. Towards this goal, funding was expected to primarily be used for the filling of a code enforcement inspector position, as well as training for existing and new Staff and the creation of new uniform code enforcement procedures. Much of this has been accomplished in the last two and a half years, and the new Code Enforcement Division is gradually expanding services to target specific priorities such as the new vacant and abandoned properties ordinance.
For the last two years, the Code Enforcement Division has been using an older small pickup truck to investigate code compliance issues. Due to its age, the truck is facing increased maintenance issues. Being gasoline-powered with frequent stops and starts and idling throughout the City, Staff has also had concerns about the longer term use of this vehicle and its carbon footprint. Due to these concerns, Staff requested an amendment to Standard Agreement #21-CDBG-NH-20004 for the purchase of a new Ford F-150 Lightning (electric) vehicle, and this amendment was granted by HCD on November 4, 2024 (Attachment 2).
Purchase of a new electric vehicle for the Code Enforcement Division also advances and is consistent with a Goal and Policy within the City's General Plan, Environment and Sustainability Element, as noted below.
Goal ENV: To improve air quality to the benefit of public health, welfare, and reduce air quality impacts with
adverse effects on residents’ health and wellbeing.
Policy ENV-7.7, City Vehicle and Equipment Fleet: The City shall continue to purchase low-emission vehicles and use clean alternative fuels as part of their fleet. When possible, the City will replace gas and hybrid vehicles with electric vehicles.
Discussion: With the awarded funding approved by the State for the vehicle purchase, Staff sent out a Request for Bid on January 2, 2025. Three (3) bids were received (Attachment 3). Madera Ford was the lowest responsible bidder with a total bid amount of $60,964.56 (Attachment 4).
Staff requests Council approve the purchase of one Ford F-150 Lightning Pro Series Crew Cab for the amount of $60,964.56, awarding the bid to Madera Ford, and utilizing awarded funds through State CDBG Grant #21- CDBG-NH-20004.
Recommended Action: Approve purchase of one 2025 Ford F-150 Lightning Pro Series Crew Cab for the amount of $60,964.56, utilizing awarded funds from State Community Development Block Grant #21-CDBGNH-20004, and approve corresponding budget amendment.

BUDGET DETAIL AND PAYMENT PROVISIONS
1. Budget
A. Budget Detail: The activity shall follow the budget as detailed in Exhibit E, Section V.
B. Program Income: All Program Income is state administered CDBG funding and is subject to the same federal requirements for financial administration as open grant awards. Program Income, including both cash-on-hand and future projected receipts, if identified as a funding source for any given activity, must be included in the activity budget and must be substantially expended prior to drawing grant award funds. Program Income must be identified separately from grant funds in the activity budget and must be broken out into activity and general administration funding, as applicable. The Department will not encumber locally administered Program Income against NOFA grant funds in the state’s accounting system. Only new grant awards made under a NOFA or in conjunction with an Urgent Need application will be encumbered in the state’s accounting system.
Funding in this Agreement may include either or both:
1) the total new grant award from the NOFA to be encumbered by the Department from grand funds,
2) total locally held Program Income to be included in the activity budget but that will not be encumbered by the Department. This Agreement is for the sum total of funds to be used in the activity including grant funds and Program Income, as applicable. Program Income receipts must be reported no less than quarterly.
C. Other Non-State CDBG Funding Sources: The Grantee shall report on the value of other contributions included as leverage for each activity via the Financial Reports required for such activity. The Financial Reports shall be accessed through the online grant management system and are the reports which convey the information needed to complete financial transactions in HUD’s

Integrated Disbursement and Information System (IDIS).
2. Availability of Funds
The Department’s provision of funding to Grantee pursuant to this Agreement is contingent on the continued availability of CDBG funds and continued federal authorization for CDBG activities, as well as the conditions set forth in Exhibit D, Section
33. The Department’s provision of funding is subject to amendment or termination due to lack of funds or authorization. This Agreement is subject to written modification or termination as necessary by the Department in accordance with requirements contained in any future state or federal legislation and/or state or federal regulations. All other modifications must be in written form and approved by both parties.
3. Eligible Costs
A. No activity costs may be incurred, or funds reimbursed until the Grantee has documented compliance with the applicable National Environmental Protection Act (NEPA) requirements established in 24 CFR 50, 24 CFR 58, and 42 USC 4321, et seq.
B. Allowable Costs: Allowable costs shall mean those necessary and proper costs under 2 CFR 200.400 through 475, and as identified in the Grantee’s application and as detailed in Exhibit E, Section VI, and as approved by the Department unless any or all such costs are disallowed by the State of California or HUD.
Allowable costs include necessary and proper activity and administration costs incurred prior to the execution of this Agreement. All costs incurred prior to the execution of this Agreement must be eligible to be considered allowable and suitable for reimbursement. Eligible costs must, at a minimum, be costs incurred according to the procurement requirements of 2 CFR 200.317, et seq. and be costs required for the activity in this Agreement to meet a National Objective.
C. Priority of Funds: The Grantee agrees to utilize funds available under this Agreement to supplement rather than supplant funds otherwise available. To the extent available, the Grantee must disburse funds available from locally held funding CDBG grant resources such as, but not limited to Program Income,

rebates, refunds, contract settlements, audit recoveries, and interest earned on such funds before requesting additional cash payments from the grant award.
D. Withholding Funds: The Department reserves the right to withhold payments pending timely delivery of program reports or documents as may be required under this Agreement. Payments are contingent upon the Grantee's financial management system meeting the requirements of 2 CFR 200.302, and the internal control requirements of 2 CFR 200.303. Payment may be suspended or terminated, in whole or in part, by the Department in its sole discretion in the event of a default by Grantee.
E. Disencumbering Funds: The Grantee agrees that funds determined by the Department to be surplus upon completion of the activity, or that have not been spent prior to the Expenditure Deadline will be subject to disencumbrance by the Department.
F. Indirect Costs: If Grantee wishes to charge for indirect costs, the Grantee must develop an indirect cost allocation plan for determining the appropriate CDBG share of such indirect costs and submit such plan to the Department for approval prior to submission of requests for any payments for the indirect cost expenditures.

By completing the narratives below the applicant is demonstrating a knowledge of need for the activity and the steps needed to achieve the desired outcome.
Activity Description
The City of Ukiah proposes $500,000 for a new CDBG Code Enforcement Services program to fully restore code enforcement services in deteriorating City incorporated areas, improve living conditions for low and moderate income (LMI) households and individuals, and address escalating hazards to the community. $465,000 of a possible CDBG grant award would be used to deliver targeted code enforcement services for the benefit of up to 7,765 LMI persons in two census tracts and six different block groups throughout the City. $35,000 would be utilized by City Community Development Department staff for general administration activities including program compliance, reporting, and monitoring of the program activity.
The code enforcement program would involve inspection of properties within Census Tract 115/Block Groups 1, 2, and 4 and Census Tract 116/Block Groups 1, 2, and 3 (the LMA service area); and working with property owners within those six deteriorating areas to correct code deficiencies, violations, and/or other health and safety violations. The City is also proposing a new Housing Rehabilitation in response to the 2021 CDBG NOFA, and if both programs are funded, the code enforcement program is expected to be especially effective at improving living conditions for LMI persons. Those presumed to benefit under a new CDBG code enforcement program include abused children, battered spouses, persons living with AIDS, elderly persons, homeless persons, migrant farm workers, and adults meeting the Bureau of Census’ Definition of Severely Disabled Persons. Youths, single adults, single men/women, families, mentally ill, veterans, substance abusers, and victims of domestic violence are also expected to benefit.
The program is anticipated to begin by October 2021 and conclude by July 2024 or earlier. Code enforcement services will be implemented by staff within the Community Development Department’s Building/Code Enforcement Services Division, with additional support from the Ukiah Police Department as needed. If awarded CDBG funding, the City expects to hire one full-time code enforcement position to implement the program within the six targeted areas and fully restore the capacity of the code enforcement services division, which was all but eliminated 10 years ago. As compliance increases in the six deteriorating areas, and it becomes known throughout the community that the City has a proactive code enforcement division, the need for future CDBG funding to continue these services is expected to be reduced. CDBG funds are needed to start up the City's code enforcement services program and address critical needs in these six deteriorating areas.
Provide a detailed narrative describing the steps to be taken to complete the activity. (i.e.: Task 1- create marketing plan; Task 2- hold a town hall meeting; Task 3- analyze feedback… etc.). This task narrative should indicate your knowledge of the steps and actions necessary to complete your activity. Narrative should include all actions taken to reach readiness through actions necessary for closeout.

Narrative regarding current code enforcement needs
Currently, the City is facing a situation of extremely limited staffing and resources to respond to and address escalating code enforcement needs. Code enforcement services are performed approximately one quarter of the time by two Building Division personnel in the Community Development Department (CDD), resulting in a population to code enforcement officer ratio of 16,035 to 0.5. Building Division personnel, although trained in building code and health and safety compliance, do not have current training through the California Association of Code Enforcement Officers. Lack of training, funding, and time results in current code enforcement services being limited to addressing complaints about the most severe health and safety concerns.
Approximately 10 years ago, a full-time code enforcement services position was eliminated from the Community Development Department due to budget issues and most of these services transferred to the Ukiah Police Department (UPD). Over time, and especially as calls for service related to law enforcement issues and nuisances have increased throughout Ukiah, it has not been possible for UPD to proactively respond to and prioritize code enforcement. In the past 14 months, for example, UPD received over 430 calls regarding Ukiah City Code issues, over 300 reports of abandoned vehicles, and over 50 complaints about graffiti.
Consequently, and after collaborative discussions between UPD and CDD, in 2020 most code enforcement services were transferred back to CDD, which created a new Code Enforcement Services Division under the purview of the Building Division and Building Official. Although the framework is now in place to proactively address code enforcement issues throughout the City of Ukiah and especially in deteriorating Census Tracts/Block Groups, funding and staffing resources are still limited. CDBG funding for a new code enforcement services division would essentially triple the size of staff to address code enforcement issues, to a population to code enforcement ratio of 16,035 to 1.5, while also designing uniform code enforcement procedures to standardize and increase efficiencies for delivering code enforcement services. Besides improving responsiveness and effectiveness of code enforcement services, a more intentional and proactive enforcement services model will reduce the impact to the Ukiah Police Department, increasing safety Citywide.

Narrative regarding how the age of the housing impacts enforcement needs The age of the housing stock in Ukiah has a significant impact on the needs of code enforcement in the areas of capacity, safety, and resources. According to the 2019-2027 City of Ukiah Housing Element, the majority of the housing stock in the City of Ukiah, nearly 70%, was built in the 1950s – 1980s with many of these homes having few improvements since their construction. Deferred maintenance on these homes attribute to issues like leaky roofs, lack of egress, architectural barriers to ADA accessibility, deteriorated stairways and landings, plumbing issues, failing structural systems, unsightly and broken concrete driveways, lack of painting/waterproofing that leads to dry rot/pest and fungus issues, mold intrusion, etc. The sheer scale of deteriorating housing stock, especially in the six deteriorating Census Tracts/Block Groups (the LMA service area), poses an increased urgency to proactively address code enforcement issues in these areas, particularly for safety purposes.
The age of the housing stock in Ukiah thus increases the burden on code enforcement resources and capacity, reducing code enforcement personnel effectiveness. In the short term, this shifts the focus of code enforcement services to only the most severe health and safety issues. In the long term, and without additional resources or funding, this situation poses a safety hazard for the entire community.
How old is the housing stock?
30-60 years old average; over 90% of housing stock over 25 years of age (2019-2027 City of Ukiah Housing Element) City of Ukiah
21-CDBG-NH-20004
Provide a narrative describing property nuisances in your community As with age of the housing stock and impacts to service delivery, the increase in the number of property nuisances over the past few years has further reduced the effectiveness of code enforcement services to sustainably address code enforcement needs throughout the community. Illegal dumping on public and private property is one major concern, and there are multiple properties in Ukiah where access is restricted by garbage and debris to the point one cannot walk through the yard, home, or parking lot (see attached photo documentation). This poses access and safety issues for first responders entering the property to respond to emergencies.
There are multiple instances of graffiti throughout the City. Abandoned vehicles are also a concern and usually located in larger public parking lots, often with wheels missing and temporary makeshift living areas built into the vehicles. Removing the vehicles and assisting individuals with accessing housing poses a significant challenge and often involves coordination with several community partners. Finally, vacant properties, while the least reported code enforcement issue, pose safety and health issues to community residents. Over the last 14 months alone, the Ukiah Police Department has documented over 1,500 calls related to public nuisances and code complaints (see attached documentation). Public nuisances deteriorate and jeopardize the entire community, as well as the safety of first responders.
A public nuisance property is one that has the potential to affect the health, safety, welfare and/or comfort of the general public. Provide a detailed narrative of public nuisance properties in the program’s service area impact the community and code enforcement activities.

The Division also collaborates with the Ukiah Valley Fire Authority for violations of fire code and other fire-related health and safety issues.
Although these are existing longstanding partnerships for service delivery, the City does not have formal recognition of the partnership through a resolution by the City Council so does not meet the definition of supporting documentation requested within the application instructions.

Please include a narrative describing your staff and/or contractor/subrecipient expertise:
The CDBG code enforcement services program is proposed to be delivered by existing City of Ukiah Building/Code Enforcement Services staff and a newly hired code enforcement officer. Matthew Keizer, Building Official for the City of Ukiah, will be the lead for the code enforcement services activity, focusing on development of uniform code enforcement procedures with the City Attorney’s Office, coordination of code inspections including the schedule, tracking of progress and resolution of code enforcement cases, recruiting/hiring/training the new code enforcement officer, and the deployment of resources for rehabilitation assistance, such as through a future Housing Rehabilitation program. Mr. Keizer has over 20 years’ experience in the construction industry as a licensed general contractor and currently holds a General B license in good standing with the CSLB. As a building inspector, Mr. Keizer has completed over 40 International Code Council (ICC) certifications and recently achieved the designation as a Master Code Professional from the ICC, considered the “gold standard” for demonstrating proficiency in the building code profession.
Code Enforcement Officer for the City of Ukiah, to be hired if awarded CDBG funding, will be the principle implementer of code enforcement services in the six deteriorating areas (the LMA service area) of the City of Ukiah. It is proposed that CDBG code enforcement services funding pay for a large portion of the code enforcement officer’s time, potentially up to 80 percent, with the remaining funding for the position coming from the City General Fund (the General Fund-portion of the funding would pay for the code enforcement officer’s time when not in the LMA service area).
The code enforcement officer will conduct investigations, document violations, send letters regarding compliance issues and perform follow-up inspections, attend court appointments, and write citations. He/she will also work with owners to achieve compliance, answer questions from the public, and enter tracking information into the City’s electronic code enforcement tracking system. The position will be expected to work with other agencies and departments, assist with community outreach, and connect residential code compliance violations to a future funded City housing rehabilitation program.
Steven Oropeza, Building Inspector II for the City of Ukiah, will assist the code enforcement officer and Mr. Keizer in performing the duties of the code enforcement services program. Mr. Oropeza holds 5 building inspection certificates, having recently achieved his “R5” Residential Combination Inspector certification. Mr. Oropeza will also assist with community outreach and connecting housing code compliance issues to a future City housing rehabilitation program.
Craig Schlatter, Community Development Director for the City of Ukiah, will administer the CDBG Code Enforcement Services Program, including coordination, compliance monitoring, the completion of semi-annual and annual reports, and drawdown requests. He will be assisted by Mr. Jesse Davis, Planning Manager and Mary Horger, Financial Services Manager. Although this will be his first administration of a Code Enforcement Program, Mr. Schlatter has 15 years' experience with the California CDBG non-entitlement program and has designed and implemented other Public Services programs, Planning and Technical Assistance studies, and Homeownership Assistance, Housing Rehabilitation, and Business Assistance programs through CDBG, as well as Owner Occupied Rehabilitation, Tenant Based Rental Assistance, First Time Homebuyer programs, and Rental New Construction projects through the HOME Investment Partnerships Program. Mr. Schlatter has also designed and implemented CDBG multifamily housing rehabilitation and reconstruction projects, infrastructure and public improvement projects, economic development and housing debt restructuring projects, and public facility improvement projects. Mr. Schlatter has training and experience in State and Federal Davis Bacon and Related Acts prevailing wage monitoring, as well as training through HUD in NEPA compliance and environmental reviews, and serves as the NEPA Certifying Officer for CDBG and HOME for the City of Ukiah.
Mr. Jesse Davis, Planning Manager for the City of Ukiah, will assist Mr. Schlatter in CDBG program administration and reporting.
Mr. Davis has experience in federal grants management and environmental analysis, including work oversees as a Peace Corps volunteer, work as a regional grants officer for the Rotary Foundation, and significant work experience in community planning.
Mary Horger, Financial Services Manager for the City of Ukiah, will assist in the processing of funds requests and documentation of eligible expenses. Ms. Horger has approximately 20 years’ experience in all aspects of procurement, budgeting, and vendor management, for both private and public organizations. Ms. Horger also has experience with CDBG and HOME financial management, including accounting and tracking.

CDBG CODE ENFORCEMENT SERVICES PROGRAM
RENTAL HOUSING PROTECTION DOCUMENTATION
Through this 2021 CDBG application for a code enforcement services program, the City of Ukiah is proposing to redesign and rebuild the capacity of the Code Enforcement Division to respond to escalating enforcement and compliance issues in the six deteriorating areas of the City (the LMA service area). One of the needs of a City code enforcement program is to design and implement a Rental Housing Protection program through Ordinance.
The City does not yet have this Ordinance established, as the City has not had the capacity to enforce such an Ordinance. If CDBG funding is received for the City’s proposed Code Enforcement Services program, the City intends to explore design and adoption of such an ordinance with the Ukiah City Council.

City of Ukiah Code Enforcement Services Program
Racial Equity
It is a Department priority to ensure all eligible persons receive equitable access to services, and are served with dignity, respect and compassion regardless of circumstance, ability or identity. This includes marginalized populations, including but not limited to, Black, Native and Indigenous, Latinx, Asian, Pacific Islanders and other People of Color, immigrants, people with criminal records, people with disabilities, people with mental health and substance use vulnerabilities, people with limited English proficiency, people who identify as transgender, people who identify as LGBTQ+, and other individuals that may not traditionally access mainstream support. The following list of questions highlight items that you as the Grantee might be doing to address racial equity. If you have not started to address racial equity in your housing and community development projects and programs, this is an opportunity to describe your plans for how this funding will reduce disparities and increase racial equity in your communities. Answers in this section will not serve to qualify or disqualify applicants but rather will serve as a baseline measure of the current state of each applicant’s disparities, efforts and outcomes.
Please select your application type:
Public Services
Has your jurisdiction completed an analysis of racial disparities in its programs that address housing insecurity, homelessness and economic insecurity?
No
How will you capture and analyze data to determine if you have disproportionate outcomes in your CDBG funded project or program for people in protected classes, including but not limited to Black, Native and Indigenous, Latino/Latina/Latinx, Asian, Pacific Islanders and other people of color who have been historically marginalized and are disproportionately impacted by housing segregation, poverty, and homelessness? The City of Ukiah will primarily capture and analyze data regarding disproportionate outcomes in CDBG-CV through the use of community-engagement forums, equity surveys, and personal communication from members of the City’s newly-formed Equity and Diversity Committee. The 11-person Equity and Diversity Committee includes two City Council members and nine individuals who identify with or are members of organizations that represent the following demographic groups: Persons with lived experience of poverty (currently or formerly living at or below the poverty level, Persons with physical or mental disabilities, Persons from the LGBTQA community, Native American tribes and communities in Mendocino County, Persons from the Hispanic/Latino community, Persons of color, Persons whose primary language is not English, Youth 21 years and younger, and Seniors 65 years or older.
The Committee, seated on February 17, 2021, has been tasked with developing an action plan to foster diversity and equity in the organization and our community. The committee will review policies, practices, and procedures to promote and enhance equal participation and access to services. The Equity and Diversity committee serves in an advisory capacity to the City Council and City Manager.
How will you respond to identified disparities and use this funding to work toward racial equity in your CDBG funded project or program?
The City of Ukiah will evaluate and respond to identified disparities through the goals, objectives, and strategies identified in the City-wide comprehensive equity action plan developed by the City of Ukiah’s Equity and Diversity Committee. Ongoing progress to meet racial equity goals will be evaluated during the committee’s annual review process.
Does your organization have requirements for all subrecipients to look at data to determine racial disparities in its programs?
No
Does your organization have requirements for all subrecipients to put a plan in place to address racial disparities if they exist?
No

In June 2020, the City started the Downtown Streetscape Improvement Project. The project, which is expected to be completed in 2021, provides streetscape improvements in downtown Ukiah on State Street, Perkins Street, and Standley Street, including sidewalk widening, curb ramps and bulb outs, street lights, street furniture and tree planting. The project also includes a “road diet” between Henry Street and Mill Street that is transforming the existing four-lane cross section into a three-lane cross section.
The Streetscape Project will improve accessibility to businesses in the downtown, public buildings and facilities, sidewalks, and pedestrian crossings. See link for more information: http://www.cityofukiah.com/streetscape/ In addition to the Streetscape project, in October 2019 the City Council adopted the 2019-2027 Housing Element. The City’s updated Housing Element includes as an Implementing Program 1a, which reads as follows: “Implement a residential rehabilitation program. Emphasize rehabilitation of mobile homes, detached single-family dwelling units, and lower-income multifamily housing projects. Prioritize funding for health and safety repairs, energy efficiency improvements, and ADA accommodations. Assist in completing the rehabilitation of at least 25 lower income housing units in the planning period.” The City is submitting an application to HCD for funding of a housing rehabilitation program under the 2021 CDBG NOFA, and if awarded, this would further the City’s efforts to increase accessibility to housing. See Page 65 of the Housing Element at this link:
http://www.cityofukiah.com/NewWeb/wp-content/uploads/2019/12/City-of-Ukiah-2019-2027-Housing-Element-Update-fullCERTIFIED-120519.pdf Finally, the City currently is actively redesigning a recently purchased municipal services building with a 2020 CDBG planning grant to remove architectural barriers to accessibility for the public’s future use of the building.

Please describe and include relevant links that demonstrate the action was completed:
In adopting its newly updated 2019-2027 Housing Element, the City of Ukiah adopted the implementation of programs that will and are currently modifying land use policies or development standards to facilitate housing choices and affordability in highest or high resource opportunity areas.
Three of the implementing objectives included the following:
• Update C1 and C2 Zones to allow by-right housing development, with objective design and development standards. Units allowed by-right will include multifamily, SROs, duplexes, triplexes, and fourplexes. • Update the C-N Zone to increase residential density and allow similar housing types as those allowed in R-2. • By-right housing program for select parcels. Specific to APNs 00304077, 00304078, and 00304079, rezone these parcels at the default density of 15 du/ac. Also rezone these parcels to allow residential use by-right for developments with at least 20% of the units affordable to lower income households.”
Towards these implementation objectives, the City has accomplished the following:
• Complete objective design and development standards. The Ukiah City Council approved the standards on November 20, 2020. • By-right housing program for select parcels. On March 17, 2021, the Ukiah City Council adopted an ordinance adopting the City’s first Housing Overlay Zone for the three parcels mentioned above. This is expected to lead to the construction of an affordable housing project at that location.
The following are in progress with expected introduction for adoption by City Council in June 2021:
• Update C1 and C2 Zones to allow by-right housing development. • Update the C-N (Neighborhood Commercial) Zone to increase residential density and allow similar housing types as those allowed in R-2 (medium density) residential.
An example of the impact the change to the C-N Zone will have in highest resource and high resource opportunity areas in Ukiah is attached below.

Project
April 2, 2021
We bet you’re wondering when this will be done! July-August is our best estimate right now, which—believe it or not—is right on schedule. Here’s what we anticipate the progression of work will look like over the next couple of months:
o Now through mid-April: Constructing new sidewalks on the east side of State Street. o Mid-April through mid-May: Constructing new sidewalks on the west side of State Street, working from Mill to Perkins. o Third week of May: Sidewalk construction on the south side of the 100 block of West Perkins Street. o End of May-beginning of June: Sidewalk construction on the north side of the 100 block of West Standley Street. o Beginning of June: Sidewalk construction on the south side of the 100 block of West Church Street. o Starting in May, installation of the new lighting will likely begin throughout the project area…then landscaping. o Last but not least, new paving and striping throughout the project! Construction Overview, Week of March 29
Wahlund Construction (West Clay Street):
• Monday-Friday: Sewer work will occur on West Clay Street between School and Oak Streets. This process can be noisy and a bit messy, and will include trenching and other underground work. • There will be intermittent street and/or lane closures at the intersections of Clay and Oak while manhole work is underway. School Street will remain open.
• Construction hours: 7am – 5pm
Ghilotti Construction (Henry – Mill): Continued work on the east side of State Street between Perkins and Mill Streets, including excavating, forming and pouring new curbs, gutters, and bioretention facilities. Pouring of new sidewalks continues next week.
Monday-Tuesday: Completion of new sidewalks and curb ramps and Perkins and State Streets.
Tuesday/Wednesday-Friday: Begin pouring new sidewalks at the SE corner of State and Clay, heading south toward Mill Street.
Monday-Friday: Also, crews will begin demolishing sidewalks on the west side of State, starting at Mill and heading north to Perkins. • East Stephensen Street may be closed to through traffic for the next week or so – Community Care and The Maple will have access to their parking lots from Main Street.
• East Church may be closed intermittently during this phase. • Construction hours: 7am – 5pm
North State Street between Perkins and Henry: In between their work on other parts of the project, contractors will continue working on North State Street on the decorative brick band and landscaping areas.

Streeterie: Eatery in the Street
As Spring approaches, we would like to bring back the Streeterie. This is the closure of School Street between Standley and Perkins Streets to allow for expanded outdoor dining. This is a safe and sanitized picnic area where the community can bring takeout food and beverages from our local restaurants. We are currently planning for April and May on Friday and Saturday evenings between 5:30p-7p and a Food Truck one Sunday a month planned for 4/25/21 and 5/23/21, and a youth band performing live music on the “First Friday” May 7th. This is a great opportunity for restaurants to be able to offer more meals than the capacity that they have on site and for retail businesses to stay open later (and one Sunday if they aren’t already open) and encourage more foot traffic (Covid safe restrictions in place of course). As the summer progresses hours and days can expand.
This is a volunteer partnership between Ukiah Valley Networking Agency, Ukiah Main Street Program, Greater Ukiah Business & Tourism Alliance, Love Local Mendo, City of Ukiah, Visit Mendocino and all the businesses that participate.
Frequently Asked Questions
As a restaurant, do I need to send servers over to the Streeterie? No, you offer your customers a to-go order for their food and drinks and let them know that there is an outdoor dining area on School Street weekend evenings.
What time are you closing the street and where will I park? Our plan is to close the street starting at 5pm and you/your customers can park anywhere else on School Street or in the parking district for free every weekend.
Why don’t you offer more hours?
We would love to, but we want to make sure that this run is a success and that it helps restaurants and retail businesses before we expand the hours.
How can we help?
You can get the word out that this is an option for outdoor dining, you can volunteer your time to set-up, sanitize, or clean up. Most importantly you can keep your doors open a little longer to create an atmosphere that Downtown Ukiah is OPEN for business!
There is an event posted on Facebook that you can share. www.Facebook.com/UkiahValleyNetworking Have more questions or want to make sure you are a listed participant? Call, email, text, carrier pigeon: Mo Mulheren, [email protected]; 707-391-3664; 104 N School Street City of Ukiah

STATE OBJECTIVES – FAIR HOUSING
MAPPING AND DESCRIPTION
Description: the two maps below demonstrate the facilitation of housing choices and affordability in highest or high resource opportunity areas in Ukiah. Map #1 is a snapshot of the Highest Resource and High Resource opportunity areas in Ukiah.
Map #2 is a snapshot of these same areas shown from the perspective of the City’s zoning districts.
Areas shaded white denote the City’s single‐family residential (R‐1) zoning district, and areas shaded salmon/pink denote the City’s neighborhood commercial (C‐N) zoning district.
Within the C‐N zoning district, the City is in the process of adopting a by‐right housing overlay ordinance to make “by‐right” new housing construction projects meeting the density criteria for the medium density (R‐2) residential zoning district. This would eliminate the need for a discretionary permitting process for construction of new townhomes, multifamily residential apartments, and duplexes, and instead only require a building permit with the project meeting objective standards.

DISADVANTAGED UNINCORPORATED COMMUNITIES
INTRODUCTION
Senate Bill 244 (SB 244) requires cities to identify and describe disadvantaged unincorporated communities (DUCs) inside or near its boundaries. The purpose of this legislation is to begin to address the lack of access to basic community infrastructure, such as sidewalks, clean drinking water, and adequate waste processing in unincorporated communities. This lack of investment threatens health and safety, and results in further economic, social, and educational inequality.
SB 244 requires cities and counties to include DUCs in long-range planning to produce a more efficient delivery system of services and infrastructure. One of the core aims of SB 244 is to address the complex legal, financial, and political barriers that contribute to regional inequity and infrastructure deficiencies.
This paper is organized into the following sections:
Introduction ........................................................................................................... 1 DUC Identification Methodology ........................................................................... 4 Communities Identified ......................................................................................... 7 Infrastructure Deficiency Analysis ....................................................................... 10 Key Terms .......................................................................................................... 33 References ......................................................................................................... 34 City of Ukiah

1995 General Pla n
Based on the requirements of SB 244, this analysis includes an assessment of infrastructure, covering water, wastewater, storm drainage, and structural fire protection facilities and services; infrastructure needs or deficiencies for each of the identified DUCs; and potential funding mechanisms that could resolve any identified infrastructure deficiencies. SB 244 defines a DUC as a fringe, island, or legacy community that meets the following criteria:
Contains 10 or more dwelling units in close proximity to one another; Is either within a city sphere of influence (SOI), is an island within a city boundary, or is geographically isolated and has existed for more than 50 years; and Has a median household income that is 80 percent or less than the statewide median household income (MHI).
SB 244 distinguishes three types of DUCs based on the following definitions:
“Island community” means any inhabited and unincorporated territory that is surrounded or substantially surrounded by one or more cities or by one or more cities and a county boundary or the Pacific Ocean.
“Fringe community” means any inhabited and unincorporated territory that is within a city’s sphere of influence.
“Legacy community” means a geographically isolated community that is inhabited and has existed for at least 50 years.
As demonstrated in the following sections, all of the DUCs identified in this analysis match the definition of a fringe community.

Table 1 summarizes the findings from this DUC analysis, which is described in depth in the following sections. As shown in the table, there are no infrastructure deficiencies for water, wastewater, or stormwater drainage in Ukiah DUCs. However, based on information from the Ukiah Valley Fire Authority (UVFA), the identified DUCs have structural fire protection deficiencies due to the water infrastructure for fire connection in these areas: the majority of the fire connections in the identified DUCs are standpipes or wharf hydrants, which do not produce the normal fire flows of a standard hydrant.

DUC IDENTIFICATION METHODOLOGY
While SB 244 describes the general characteristics of DUCs, it does not provide specific guidance on how to identify them. To assist local governments in addressing the requirements of SB 244, the Governor’s Office of Planning and Research (OPR) published a technical advisory memo in February 2013 titled: Senate Bill 244: Land Use, General Plans, and Disadvantaged Communities. The memo recommends data sources for identifying income status and mapping resources for identifying “communities” as defined by SB 244. Based on the guidance provided by OPR, the City identified DUCs in the Ukiah area by following the steps described below.
STEP 1. LOW-INCOME STATUS
First, the City identified unincorporated areas between the City limits and SOI that had a MHI that was 80 percent or less than the statewide MHI. This was done by looking at Census Block Groups (CBGs) and Census Designated Places (CDPs) that met the lowincome threshold using income data from the 2013-2017 American Community Survey (ACS). From 2013-2017, the statewide MHI was $67,169, which set the low-income threshold of 80 percent or less than the statewide average, was $53,735. Figure 1 shows the areas that had MHI at or below $53,735.

STEP 2. RESIDENTIAL PROXIMITY
Next, within the areas identified as having a MHI of $53,735 or less, the City identified groupings of dwelling units that were in close proximity to each other and that were also similar in form to the density of residential areas typically located in suburban and urban communities. This was done using satellite imagery from Google Earth to locate areas with more than 10 dwellings in close proximity to each other.
STEP 3. GROUND TRUTHING
After identifying potential DUCs based on the thresholds described in SB 244 and the most recent data available, the City reviewed the identified communities to confirm they matched the intent of the SB 244 analysis and that the digital data sources used match current realities. City staff concluded that the 11 DUCs identified through the above process were valid and appropriate as defined under State law.

COMMUNITIES IDENTIFIED
The DUCs that the City identified are “Fringe Communities,” as defined by SB 244. Table 2 lists the DUCs in the Ukiah SOI by size (in acres), the approximate number of dwelling units for each DUC, and the number of parcels in each community. Figure 2 shows the DUCs that are south of city limits, and Figure 3 shows the DUCs north of city limits.

INFRASTRUCTURE DEFICIENCY ANALYSIS
SB 244 requires an analysis of infrastructure services for each DUC. This section first provides an overview of service providers in the Ukiah SOI that provide infrastructure facilities or services in the DUCs. The subsequent section describes the services provided by each provider within each DUC consistent with the requirements of SB 244.
OVERVIEW OF SERVICE PROVIDERS WITHIN THE UKIAH SOI
SB 244 calls for “an analysis of water, wastewater, stormwater drainage, and structural fire protection needs or deficiencies” for all identified DUCs. Within the Ukiah SOI, public water and wastewater services are provided by special districts. Where public water and wastewater services are not provided, onsite systems (e.g., private wells and septic systems) are used.
Private wells and septic systems were not evaluated in this report. The following is an overview of how services are provided within the DUCs in the Ukiah area.
WATER
Potable water service within DUCs in Ukiah SOI is provided primarily by special districts, although several DUCs are reliant on individual wells. Special districts that provide water services include:
Calpella County Water District (DUC #11)
Mendocino County Russian River Flood Control and Water Conservation Improvement District (DUCs #1, #2, #3, #5, #6, #7, #8, #9, #10, and #11) Millview County Water District (DUCs #6, #7, #8, #9, and #10) Willow County Water District (DUCs #1, #2, #3, and #5, and approximately 95 percent of DUC #4)
A small portion (approximately 5 percent of the total area) of DUC #4 relies on private wells.
WASTEWATER
Wastewater collection and treatment services are provided to DUCs in the Ukiah SOI through a combination of onsite septic systems (both individual septic and community septic systems) and special districts. Special districts that provide wastewater services include:
Calpella County Water District (DUC #11)
Millview County Water District (DUC #8)
Ukiah Valley Sanitation District (DUCs #2, #3, #4, #5, and #6) DUCs #1 and #7, #9, #10 rely on septic tanks.
STORMWATER DRAINAGE
Nearly half of the Ukiah DUCs are provided with stormwater drainage services by Mendocino County (County). The other DUCs rely on roadside ditches to collect stormwater runoff.
Services are provided as the following:
Mendocino County (DUCs #4, #6, #10, and #11)

21-CDBG-NH-20004
City of Ukiah 11
1995 General Plan
DUCs #1, #2, #3, #5, #7, #8, and #9 rely on roadside ditches.
STRUCTURAL FIRE PROTECTION
Fire protection services within the Ukiah SOI are provided by Ukiah Valley Fire Authority and the Redwood Valley-Calpella Fire District. The Ukiah Valley Fire Authority (UVFA) jointly manages, equips, maintains and operates all-risk fire, emergency medical and rescue services to the City and Fire District. Services are provided as the following:

DUC SERVICE PROFILES
For each of the 11 identified DUCs in the Ukiah SOI, the City consulted with the Mendocino Local Agency Formation Commission (LAFCo) and researched available data and reports to determine how water, wastewater, stormwater drainage, and structural fire protection services are provided. The Mendocino LAFCo information was derived primarily from published Municipal Service Reviews (MSRs) and SOI update reports. The following are analyses of how each DUC is being served.
DUC #1
DUC #1 is located at
the northwest corner of
Burke Hill Road and
Bisby Avenue, west of
Redwood Highway.
This area includes 4
parcels totaling
approximately 8 acres,
with approximately 15
mobile homes. This
area is commonly
known as Ukiah Mobile
Estates.
Water – The
Mendocino County
Russian River Flood
Control and Water
Conservation
Improvement District
(RRFC) provide raw
water for irrigation and
to municipal water
purveyors within this
area.
The Willow County Water District (WCWD) receives water from the RRFC, then treats and distributes the water to this area. During a normal year, the WCWD distributes approximately 1,200 acre-feet of water per year for domestic and landscape and agricultural irrigation uses.
Water usage is about 20 percent residential and 80 percent commercial/industrial. The WCWD maintains a storage capacity of 1.348 million gallons in nine storage tanks strategically located throughout the WCWD. Based on data contained in the 2013 Ukiah Valley Special Districts MSR, the WCWD would have sufficient capacity to meet anticipated demand- and consequently, it does not appear there are water deficiencies.
City of Ukiah
21-CDBG-NH-20004
City of Ukiah 13
1995 General Plan
Wastewater – There is no community wastewater system in place for this community. Septic tanks are used by residents for wastewater disposal. Because no data has been recently presented suggesting the septic capacity is not sufficient for this community, there appear to be no wastewater deficiencies in this community.
Stormwater Drainage – Storm drainage capture and transport is limited since there is no community storm drain system in place for this community. In lieu of a storm drain system, there are roadside ditches that are used to manage and transport stormwater runoff for the area. The use of roadside ditches have led to less ponding and localized flooding, but during large rain events, localized flooding and ponding may still occur. Based on the availability of stormwater runoff capture and transport through roadside ditches, there appear to be no stormwater drainage deficiencies in this community.
Structural Fire Protection – Fire protection is provided to this community by Ukiah Valley Fire Authority (UVFA). The UVFA provides structural, wildland fire suppression, and emergency medical services. UVFA staff are trained to provide emergency medical service at the Basic Life Support (BLS) level and are the first responders to these types of calls. The UVFA reviews all applications for new commercial construction, multi-unit housing, occupancy changes, and tenant changes that are within its service area and require a building permit. UVFA Station 1 (South Station), located at 1500 S. State Street, is the closest station to DUC #1. This station is staffed full time, 24 hours a day, seven days a week, 365 days a year. During peak fire season, CalFire operates CalFire Station Ukiah, part of the Mendocino Unit, located at 2690 N. State Street. This station is not staffed full-time, but when operational, can assist UVFA during large fire incidents.
Water infrastructure for fire connections is inadequate in this area (there are no fire hydrants), limiting availability to adequate fire suppression systems. In lieu of an adequate fire suppression system and existing water serving infrastructure, all UVFA fire trucks are required to carry water onboard for fire suppression. Based on these water infrastructure issues, there are fire protection service deficiencies in this community.
