AGENDA SUMMARY REPORT
SUBJECT: Approval of Contract Amendment with JM Integration in the Amount of $119,394 for SCADA System Upgrade at the Water Treatment Plant, and Approve Corresponding Budget Amendment DEPARTMENT: Public Works PREPARED BY: Seth Strader, Administrative Analyst PRESENTER: Sean White, Water Resources Director
ATTACHMENTS:

1. February 3, 2021, Staff Report

2. June 21, 2023, Staff Report with Change Order

3. Proposed Change Order
Summary: The City Council will consider the approval of a contract amendment with JM Integration in the amount of $119,394 for Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) System Upgrade at the Water Treatment Plant, and a corresponding budget amendment using water reserve funds.

Background: On March 3, 2021, JM Integration was awarded the contract for SCADA system upgrades at the Water Treatment Plant (Attachment 1). The upgrade work consisted of replacing the original SCADA system installed in 2005, which is no longer supported by the original manufacturer. Contract work includes expanded functionality, cloud access and staff training on the new SCADA system.

Discussion: Since the project began in 2021, Council approved a contract amendment in 2023 that authorized the purchase of new controllers and workstations as part of the SCADA system upgrade. The original agreement and approved contract amendment brought the total contract work to $393,625.21 (Attachment 2).

Staff is requesting the approval of the attached change order (Attachment 3) for additional software and equipment needed to complete the SCADA system upgrade. The attached change order is for control panel modifications and the purchase of a perpetual software program called Rockwell that would align with the planned Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) upgrades and ensure compatibility for use with the new system. The Water Treatment Plant has used the subscription-based Aveva Wonderware platform for many years. The proposed replacement, Rockwell Automation, is a one-time purchase of $50,000. Aveva Wonderware is an annual subscription of $30,000.00; therefore, in less than two years, the initial expense would be recouped. as well as on-going annual savings for software of at least $30,000.

The budget amendment, if approved, would bring the project total to $513,019, with a current year amount of $217,737.41.

Recommended Action: Approve of contract amendment in the amount of $$119,394 for SCADA System Upgrade at the Water Treatment Plant, and approve corresponding budget amendment.

1. JM Integration Proposal
Summary: Council will consider approving an agreement with JM Integration for SCADA upgrades at the Water Treatment Plant in the amount of $259,756, and approving a corresponding budget amendment.

Background: The Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) System at the Water Treatment Plant is the main software tool for managing the City's drinking water system. The current system was installed in 2005. The system has become obsolete and the manufacturer stopped support in 2017. Since that time, the Water Resources Department has been working with the Procurement Department to secure a new vendor in order to upgrade the system.

Discussion: A Request for Proposal (RFP) was released and three firms responded: JM Integration, Systems Integrated and Telstar Instruments. Staff reviewed the proposals. The proposal received from JM Integration (Attachment 1) was found the most responsive, with a proposed amount of $259,756. Telstar Instruments submitted a price of $48,700, but the price did not cover the scope as requested. Systems Integrated submitted a price of $295,900.

Staff is therefore recommending the approval of a contract with JM Integration in the amount of $259,756, as well as approval of a corresponding budget amendment.

Please note that this project was on the 5-Year Capital Improvement Plan, and budget was approved for the 19/20 fiscal year. However, at the time it was known that this would not be awarded in that year, it was too late to amend the budget for the 20/21 fiscal year - thus the corresponding request for a budget amendment.

Recommended Action: Approve agreement with JM Integration for SCADA upgrades at the Water Treatment Plant in the amount of $259,756, and approve corresponding budget amendment.

BUDGET AMENDMENT REQUIRED: Yes

3. JM CO 1
Summary: Council will consider approval of a contract amendment for additional SCADA system upgrade work for the Water Treatment Plant, and consider approval of a corresponding budget amendment using Water Reserve Funds in the amount of $133,869.21.

Background: On March 3, 2021, JM Integration, Inc was awarded the contract for SCADA system upgrades at the Water Treatment Plant, wells and other supporting facilities. See Attachment 1 for a copy of the ASR Award and Attachment 2 for the original proposal. The upgrade work consists of replacing the original SCADA system installed in 2005, which has not been supported by the manufacturer since 2017. Upgrades include expanded functionality, cloud access and training Staff on the new system.

Discussion: As JM Integration began the upgrade process, it was determined that the existing controllers would need to be changed to allow for the latest required software, future programming and expanded ethernet connectivity and security. These controllers will be supported by two Dell servers and workstations. JM Integration proposed a change for this additional work. See Attachment 2. Staff found the proposed fee to commensurate with the Scope of Work.

The budget amendment, if approved, will authorize increasing this project’s total to $393,625.21.

Recommended Action: Approve a Contract Amendment for additional SCADA system upgrade work for the Water Treatment Plant, and consider approving a corresponding budget amendment using Water Reserve Funds in the amount of $133,869.21.

AGENDA SUMMARY REPORT
SUBJECT: Report to City Council Regarding Paramedic Training at Pelham Paramedic School and the Associated Expenses of $42,600.

DEPARTMENT: Fire PREPARED BY: Eric Singleton, Battalion Chief PRESENTER: Doug Hutchison, Fire Chief
ATTACHMENTS:

None
Summary: The Council will receive a report regarding paramedic training at Pelham Paramedic School, and the associated expenses of $42,600 for the training of two Ukiah Valley Fire Authority (UVFA) team members as part of our ongoing efforts to maintain adequate paramedic staffing to ensure high-quality emergency medical services for the community.

Background: The Ukiah Valley Fire Authority (UVFA) provides Advanced Life Support (ALS) services on all full-time staffed apparatus through the deployment of paramedics. This capability enhances our service delivery to the Ukiah Valley community. In accordance with Coastal Valley's Emergency Medical Services Agency regulations, ALS response requires the presence of a paramedic on the scene. Currently, UVFA staffs three paramedics per shift to meet this requirement.

Discussion: UVFA has been facing a shortage of paramedics, resulting in increased overtime expenditures to backfill positions and ensure ALS coverage. This challenge, exacerbated by the nationwide decline in interest in emergency medical careers and the COVID-19 pandemic’s impact on training programs, has necessitated innovative solutions to maintain adequate staffing levels.

Traditionally, UVFA personnel have attended a local paramedic training program that spans approximately 18 to 24 months, including two semesters of didactic instruction followed by clinical and field internships. The extended duration of this program contributes to ongoing overtime costs associated with covering shifts for personnel in training.

To address this issue, UVFA identified an alternative paramedic training program through Pelham Training University in Indiana. This program offers an accelerated five-month course with intensive weekday and weekend instruction, significantly reducing the time required for personnel to become certified paramedics.

This approach not only expedites the availability of trained paramedics but also mitigates costs related to extended overtime expenditures and workforce fatigue.

UVFA initially utilized this program last year, successfully training and certifying two team members. The current expenditure supports an additional two team members who commenced training in January 2025 and are expected to complete the program by April 2025, returning as fully licensed paramedics. While the upfront cost of this program is comparable to the local option, the shorter training duration significantly reduces overall costs associated with overtime and shift coverage.

Staff recommends the Council receive this report. As this expenditure has already been approved in the current budget, no further action is required.

AGENDA SUMMARY REPORT
SUBJECT: Consider Approval to Recruit for a Parks and Streets Operations Superintendent Position.

Mannion, H.R. Director/Risk Manager, Tim Eriksen,
Public Works Director/City Engineer
PRESENTER: Neil Davis, Community Services Supervisor
ATTACHMENTS:

1. Parks Streets Operations Superintendent
Summary: Council will consider approval to recruit for a Parks and Streets Operations Superintendent position.

Background: City of Ukiah maintenance crews cover a broad array of services. The division of labor between various departments, including electric, water/sewer, streets, and parks often includes overlapping activities.

For example, any one of these teams may be tasked with trimming trees, pouring concrete, digging trenches, or performing minor carpentry tasks among other activities. As enterprise departments, Electric and Water/Sewer are naturally inclusive. While the Parks and Streets teams have traditionally been separated, they are both General Fund divisions and many municipalities combine these teams into a single working unit.

The recent consolidation of water districts with the City of Ukiah has added additional duties to the current Water/Sewer/Streets Supervisor, including moving oversight of the water distribution activities from Public Works to Water Resources. Additionally, with the upcoming retirement of the current Parks Superintendent, it provides an opportunity to consider a new approach to the division of labor and supervision of the Streets and Parks Divisions.

Discussion: Combining the teams would provide the opportunity for improved collaboration and decreased “silos,” greater flexibility in forming small project-specific teams, an increased pool from which to promote from within, and an opportunity to ensure good lead worker-to-maintenance worker ratios. A combined team provides an increased ability to form subgroups of workers with the appropriate skills and abilities to perform a given task. While most routine, scheduled maintenance tasks are performed efficiently with a team of two, other projects may be more efficiently performed with anywhere from three to ten or more workers. A combined workforce allows for individual workers to develop sub-specialties consistent with the individual’s aptitudes and interests, while acknowledging that many will prefer the variety of the work.

Many municipalities combine Streets and Parks maintenance teams. A review of the City's job descriptions shows overlap in required duties between parks and streets team members. For many employees, the opportunity to increase the variability in the scope of work will be seen as a good thing. Both Parks and Streets teams have been apprised of the possible merger and there has been no significant opposition.

Staff recommends that Council approve the creation of a new and expanded “Superintendent” position (Attachment 1) to oversee the operations of the Parks and Streets teams and allow Staff to conduct an open recruitment. The position will be subject to the Management Unit Memorandum of Understanding, with a

Page 306 of 511 ends
Page 2 of 2 ends

recommended salary equivalent to other similar positions within the Unit ($95,033.50 - $115,513.80/year). Upon a successful recruitment, Staff will return to Council with further information on how Staff intend to move forward with a combined workforce, including updated job descriptions and staffing plan.

Recommended Action: 1) Approve a new job classification for a combined Parks and Streets Operations Superintendent.
2) Approve Staff to initiate a recruitment for the new Parks and Streets Operations Superintendent position.

1. Resolution
Summary: Council will consider adoption of a resolution to remove approximately 80 lineal on-street parking on the east side of Hospital Drive to facilitate the installation of a public transportation bus stop.

Background: "Complete streets" is a transportation policy and design approach that requires streets to be planned, designed, operated and maintained to enable safe, convenient and comfortable travel and access for users of all ages and abilities regardless of their mode of transportation. The California Complete Streets Act (AB1358), adopted in 2008, requires that cities and counties incorporate “Complete Street” policies when updating their General Plan Circulation Element. City Staff and local transportation agencies have been exploring ways to incorporate Complete Streets principles into their designs, policies and operations.

Discussion: In order to incorporate Complete Streets principles, Staff has coordinated with the Mendocino Transit Authority (MTA) to develop and expand bus routes within the downtown area. MTA requested that an additional bus stop be added in the north bound lane of Hospital Drive (Attachment 1, Exhibit A). This addition will provide a significant benefit to the community by allowing for more efficient travel of MTA buses. The elimination of approximately 80 feet of parking is required to accommodate the bus stop. Staff is recommending that Council adopt the Resolution (Attachment 1) removing approximately 80 feet of on-street parking.

Recommended Action: Adopt resolution to approximately 80 lineal feet of on-street parking on the east side of Hospital Drive.

3. CC Resolution Adopting Fire District Impact Fees

4. Fee Comparison
Summary: City Council will consider adopting via resolution the Fire Impact Fees on behalf of the Ukiah Valley Fire District (UVFD) based on the study approved by the UVFD Board of Directors.

Background: To continue to provide service to new development within the Ukiah Valley Fire District, the Fire District requested the County of Mendocino adopt Fire Impact Fees on behalf of the Fire District in 2008.

These fees are intended to help offset the cost of providing service for new development. These are one-timeonly fees charged for new developments. Since then, the fees have remained the same. In 2017, the City of Ukiah and the Ukiah Valley Fire District entered a Joint Powers Agreement for fire protection services in the greater Ukiah Valley. The Fire District overlayed the City of Ukiah in 2022. As a part of the overlay, a Nexis study (Attachment 1) was conducted on the current impacts of new developments on the Ukiah Valley Fire Authority. This study recommended an increase in the Fire Impact Fees collected on new developments to keep pace with the increased cost of providing new services, including but not limited to new capital and vehicle acquisition costs. The Fire District Board accepted the new study and its recommendations (the recommendations are attached to this report as Attachment 2) and adopted Resolution 2023-06 (Exhibit A to Attachment 3) making findings that the fees were necessary to preserve public health and safety in light of the increased demands for fire services and costs of fire prevention facilities and equipment and requesting the City Council to approve and adopt the fees within the City limits on the Fire District's behalf. A corresponding request has also been forwarded to the County for the unincorporated area within the Fire District's jurisdiction.

A proposed resolution of the City Council approving and adopting the District's capital fire facility and equipment plan, as well as the proposed Fire Impact Fees, is attached hereto as Attachment 3.

Discussion: The City has enacted via ordinance, Division 1, Chapter 15 of the City Code that sets forth requirements imposed on the Fire District before the City will impose Fire Impact Fees for new developments in the City, on behalf of the District.

Chapter 15 requires that the District adopt a resolution ("Resolution") making specific findings that the fees are necessary to preserve public health and safety in light of the increased demands for fire services and costs of fire prevention facilities and equipment. The resolution must also request that the City adopt these development mitigation fees on behalf of the District and state that such fees shall only be used to expand the availability of capital facilities and equipment to provide fire services to new development projects. Chapter 15 also requires that the Board of Directors for the Fire District adopt a capital fire facility and equipment plan

Page 315 of 511 ends
Page 2 of 2 ends

("Plan") at a noticed public hearing. The District must then send a certified copy of the Resolution and Plan to the City, to be placed on an agenda for a regular City Council meeting for the Council’s consideration and approval at a noticed public hearing. The District has provided the Resolution and Plan to the City, which are attached hereto as Attachment 3. As such, the City Council is now authorized to consider and adopt the Plan and Resolution on behalf of the District and to begin imposing Fire Impact Fees on behalf of the District.

While each fire agency needs to study and adopt fees specific to their individual operations like that studied and proposed by the Ukiah Valley Fire District, a comparison of fire impact fees for surrounding jurisdictions is provided in Attachment #4 for additional reference and review.

Once the Council approves the Fire Impact Fees, the Fire District is required to report annually on fee revenue received, account balances, and the amount and type of expenditures made from the fee revenue account.

Furthermore, the Fire District is required to adopt an updated resolution annually that makes the required findings of necessity and identifying the fire protection development mitigation fees requested by the Fire District.

Staff recommends that the City Council adopt the resolution approving the Plan and adopting the Fire Impact Fees within the city limits on behalf of the Fire District so that the Ukiah Valley Fire Authority can attempt to keep pace with the increased costs associated with providing services to new developments.

Recommended Action: Adopt resolution adopting Fire Impact Fees on behalf of the Ukiah Valley Fire District.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

INTRODUCTION
The Ukiah Valley Fire Authority (“Authority”) provided fire protection and emergency medical response services to approximately 90 square miles in and around the City of Ukiah (“City”), containing a resident population of approximately 28,000. Its boundaries include historic downtown buildings, county governmental buildings, Mendocino Community College, Dharma Realm Buddhist University, a regional hospital, and all residential and commercial developments within the service area. The Authority is also responsible for the lower half of Lake Mendocino, including the Coyote Dam, expansive wildland-urban interface areas, the Ukiah Municipal Airport, US 101, and State Route 253.

As an urban/rural fire protection agency, the Authority provides first-responder fire protection and emergency response services to the City of Ukiah (“City”) and the surrounding unincorporated Ukiah Valley in Mendocino County (“County”). Specifically, the Authority’s services include fire prevention and suppression, wildland fire protection, emergency medical services, rescue and extraction, hazardous material response, and fire prevention services.

The Authority was formed on July 1, 2017, under a Joint Powers Agreement between the City of Ukiah and the Ukiah Valley Fire Protection Authority, titled the “Agreement for Shared Management of Fire Departments”. The Agreement jointly manages, equips, maintains, and operates all-risk fire, emergency medical, and rescue services to the City and Fire Authority. The Authority was formed to maximize the use of existing resources, create cost containment opportunities, reduce duplication, maintain local control, and continue to deliver fire, medical, and other emergency services at a high level of service.

This Fire Impact Fee Nexus Study (“Nexus Study”) was prepared pursuant to the Mitigation Fee Act as found in Government Code § 66000 et seq. (the “Act”) The purpose of this Nexus Study is to establish the legal and policy basis for the collection of a new fire impact fee (“fee”) on new development within the service boundaries of the Ukiah Valley Fire Authority (“Authority”). The purpose of the fee to fund the one-time cost of expanding the Authority’s facilities, apparatus, and equipment needed to maintain its existing level of service. No capacity exists to serve new development. If the Authority’s fire system capacity is not increased to satisfy the additional demand, the quality and responsiveness of the Authority’s fire protection and emergency response services will deteriorate.

UKIAH VALLEY FIRE AUTHORITY
FIRE IMPACT FEE NEXUS STUDY, 2023
For purposes of this Nexus Study, the term “facilities” or “fire system facilities” refer to facilities (land, stations, and other buildings), apparatus (engines, ambulances, and other vehicles), and equipment (ancillary and station). The term “new development” refers to the persons (residents and employees working in the Authority’s service area) and the structural area (residential area and nonresidential building area) in which the persons live or work.

Under California law, the Authority does not have land-use authority to impose impact fees on development projects. Because the Authority serves the City and unincorporated areas of the County, the City Council and the County Board of Supervisors must adopt the fire impact fee program on behalf of the Authority.

In order to impose such fees, this Nexus Study demonstrates that a reasonable relationship between new development, the amount of the fee, and fire facilities, apparatus, and equipment funded by the fee. More specifically, this Nexus Study presents findings to meet the procedural requirements of the Mitigation Fee Act (“Act”), also known as AB 1600, which are as follows:

1. Identify the purpose of the fee. If the use is funding public facilities, the facilities must be identified. Identifying the public facilities may be a broad class of projects or made by reference to a capital improvement plan, made in applicable general or specific plan requirements, or made in other public documents.

2. Identify the use to which the fee is to be put.

3. Determine how there is a reasonable relationship between the fee’s use and the type of development project on which the fee is imposed (“benefit relationship”).

4. Determine how there is a reasonable relationship between the need for the fire facilities and the type of development project on which the fee is imposed (“impact or need relationship”).

5. Determine how there is a reasonable relationship between the amount of the fee and the cost of the facilities or portion of the facilities attributable to the development on which the fee is imposed (“rough proportional relationship”).

Additionally, the Act specifies that the fee shall not include costs attributable to existing deficiencies in public facilities but may include the costs attributable to the increased demand for public facilities reasonably related to the development project in order to refurbish existing facilities to maintain the existing level of service or achieve an adopted level of service that is consistent with the City General Plan and County General plan.

FIRE IMPACT FEE NEXUS STUDY, 2023

METHODOLOGY AND APPROACH
To determine the Authority’s fire impact fee consistent with these substantive requirements, this Nexus Study utilizes a modified system-wide existing facility standard methodology. Under this widely-used used method, the Authority’s ratio of existing fire protection facilities, apparatus and equipment to existing development establishes the standard for determining new development’s fair share of the cost to expand the Authority’s fire system as growth occurs.

The facility standard methodology is a commonly used method for the calculation of fire impact fees. It was validated by the Homebuilders Association of Tulare/Kings Counties, Inc. v. City of Lemoore in 2010. Under this method, identification and use of an existing facility standard and the restricted uses of fee revenue ensure that new development will not fund any existing deficiencies as prohibited by the Act. Instead, only capital improvements and apparatus, vehicle, and equipment purchases that expand the Authority’s fire system are allowable uses of fee revenue. Likewise, the fee program will generate only enough revenue to proportionally expand the fire system to maintain the existing level of service.

The existing facility standard is based on the Authority’s ratio of existing fire protection and emergency response facilities, apparatus, and equipment to the existing service population. Existing development refers to the persons (residents and employees working in the Authority) and the structural area (residential area and nonresidential building area) in which the persons live or work. Existing development demand is based on the Authority service call data. The Authority’s existing fire system’s value is determined using the replacement value of the Authority’s existing inventory of fire protection facilities, apparatus, and equipment. These costs are then applied to nine land use categories in proportion to the need they create for fire protection and emergency response services.

The Act requires that in establishing a development impact fee program, the facilities funded by the fee must be identified. However, the Act provides flexibility regarding how that identification may be made. The fee program may identify a broad class of projects1 or made by reference to a capital improvement plan, made in applicable general or specific plan requirements, or made in other public documents2. This fee program identifies facilities (land, stations, and other buildings), apparatus (engines, ambulances, and other vehicles), and equipment as the broad classes that will be funded with the fee. 1 According to Government Code § 66000(b) and validated by Homebuilders Association of Tulare/Kings Counties, Inc. v. City of Lemoore in 2010.
2 According to Gov’t Code Section 66001(a)(2).

UKIAH VALLEY FIRE AUTHORITY
FIRE IMPACT FEE NEXUS STUDY, 2023
The Authority’s capital improvements and apparatus and equipment purchases will benefit the entire fire system. The Authority’s fire protection and emergency response resources are organized as an integrated fire system. The resources of a one fire station do not serve a particular area in isolation from the Authority’s other fire stations and resources.

When the Authority has a service call, whether for a fire or other emergency, the Authority’s response often involves resources from multiple fire stations. Likewise, new development in the Authority’s services area is served by all the Authority facilities, apparatus, and equipment, not just by the nearest fire station.

The Nexus Study also details the procedural requirements for approval of the Nexus Study and proposed fire impact fee program (“fee program”) by the Authority Board of Directors and adoption by the City Council and the County Board of Supervisors on behalf of the Authority. Also, the Act contains specific requirements for the annual administration of the fee program. These statutory requirements and other important information regarding the imposition and collection of the fee are provided in the last sections of the Nexus Study.

FIRE IMPACT FEE NEXUS STUDY, 2023

SUMMARY OF KEY FINDINGS
The following key findings from the Nexus Study are presented:

1. Fire impact fees are necessary to ensure that the Authority can adequately expand its fire protection facilities, apparatus, and equipment to accommodate the population and employment growth and new structural area created by new development.

2. Currently, the County and the City impose fire impact fees on behalf of the Authority in the amount of $0.39 per square foot for all new development plus 10% for administrative costs. The Authority’s current fire impact fees imposed by the City and County are outdated and insufficient to mitigate the impact of new development.

3. It is the objective of the Authority to maintain its existing level of service by establishing a fire impact fee to fund the cost of expanding its facilities, apparatus, and equipment attributable to new development.

4. The Authority may approve, and the City and County may adopt on their behalf, the following fees at or below the levels determined by this Nexus Study.

5. Fee revenue may be used to fund 100% of the cost of new and expanded facilities, 100% of the cost of apparatus, vehicles, and equipment that expand the Authority’s existing inventory, and up to 10.5 percent the replacement cost of apparatus, vehicle and equipment purchases.

6. Consistent with nexus requirements of the Act, this Nexus Study demonstrates that there is a reasonable relationship between new development, the amount of the proposed fee, and facilities, apparatus, and equipment funded by the fee.

7. Since only cities and counties have land-use authority to impose development impact fees as a condition of project approval, the Authority’s proposed fee must be adopted by the County on behalf of the Authority.

8. The maximum fire impact fee determined by this Nexus Study is consistent with the Mendocino County General Plan.

SUMMARY OF GENERAL RECOMMENDATIONS
Based on the findings presented in the Nexus Study, the following general recommendations are presented:

1. Since only cities and counties have land-use authority to impose development impact fees as a condition of project approval, the Authority’s proposed fee must be adopted by the City and the County on behalf of the Authority.

2. The Authority’s approved fee should be adopted and implemented in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Act.

3. The Authority should comply with the annual reporting requirements under Government Code § 66006(b).

4. Following the fifth fiscal year after the first deposit of fee revenue and every five years thereafter, the Authority should comply with the reporting requirements under Government Code § 66001(d).

5. The cost estimates presented in this Nexus Study are in January 2023 dollars.

The fire impact fee should be adjusted automatically without further action by the Authority Board, the City Council, or the County Board on the first day of each fiscal year by the previous calendar percentage change in the Engineering NewsRecord Construction Cost Index, or its successor publication.

6. Fee revenue should be used to fund only the cost of expanded facilities, apparatus, ambulances, vehicles, and equipment to serve new development, as further detailed in Figure 11.

DETERMINATION OF EXISTING DEVELOPMENT
The Authority serves both residences and businesses throughout its service area. As such, the demand for the Authority’s services and associated facilities, apparatus, and equipment is measured by its service population and the structural area it protects. This section will first determine the service population and structural area within the Authority.

These figures, along with the Authority’s service call data, will be used to establish an existing facility demand factor for the various residential and nonresidential land uses within the Authority, which in turn will be used to determine existing development’s total facilities demand.

EXISTING SERVICE POPULATION AND STRUCTURAL AREA
The Authority provides first-responder fire protection and emergency response services to the City of Ukiah (“City”) and the surrounding unincorporated Ukiah Valley in Mendocino County (“County”). Specifically, the Authority’s services include fire prevention and suppression, wildland fire protection, emergency medical services, rescue and extraction, hazardous material response, and fire prevention services.

The Authority currently serves an estimated resident population of 27,526. The Authority’s resident population estimate is based on figures from U.S. Census Bureau, 2021 ACS 5- Year Estimate, for the census tracts 113, 114, 115.01, 115.02, 116, and 117 and assumes an 8.0 percent vacancy rate. The Authority also protects approximately 10,532 occupied and vacant housing units and approximately 7 million square feet of nonresidential building area. The estimated total housing units are from the U.S. Census Bureau, 2021 ACS 5- Year Estimate, for Ukiah Valley Census County Division. Nonresidential is estimated assuming a jobs-to-housing ratio of 1.33 for the City of Ukiah and 1.00 for the unincorporated area, and 513 sq. ft. of building area per employee.

RESIDENT EQUIVALENT DEMAND FACTOR
For purposes of this Nexus Study, a calls-for-service approach is used to help establish the relative fire facilities demand from residential and nonresidential land uses.

Specifically, service call data is converted into a resident equivalent demand factor, which represents the demand for service from a worker compared to a household resident.

As shown in Figure 3, on the following page, service call data indicates the property used for service calls for years 2020 through 2022 were gathered from the Authority’s Emergency Reporting database. Over the three years, the Authority annually averaged 2,108 service calls originating from residential property, 877 service calls originating from nonresidential properties, and 183. Service calls originating from highways, roads, open fields, or otherwise not classified as originating from residential or nonresidential land use are excluded. By dividing service calls for residential and nonresidential land uses and nursing homes by the corresponding estimated number of residents and workers results in the relative number of per capita for residential and nonresidential land uses. As shown, Authority residents are served at 1.00, and workers in the Authority are served at 0.87 compared to Authority residents.

FACILITIES EDU DEMAND FACTOR
Next, equivalent dwelling unit (“EDU”) demand factors are established to compare the relative fire facilities demand across three residential and six nonresidential land uses.

The EDU is also used to convert nonresidential building area to a residential dwelling unit value. This common approach allows for the cost of fire protection facilities, apparatus, and equipment to be equitably apportioned among residential and nonresidential land uses.

Figure 4 on the following page shows the calculation of the facilities EDU demand factor for nine land use categories. The residential land use categories are expressed per dwelling unit, and the nonresidential land use categories are expressed per 1,000 square feet of building area. Each land use category’s occupancy density is multiplied by their respective resident equivalent demand factor, then converted to single-family home value.

By this measure, for example, one single-family home creates the demand for fire facilities equal to 430 square feet of retail/commercial building area.

DETERMINATION OF EXISTING FIRE SYSTEM FACILITIES

EXISTING FIRE SYSTEM FACILITIES
The next step in determining the Authority’s existing facilities standard is to calculate the replacement value of the Authority’s fire protection and emergency response facilities system. Figure 6 below presents a summary of replacement value (in 2023 dollars) for the Authority’s existing facilities (land and stations), apparatus (engines, ambulances, and other vehicles) and equipment (ancillary and station).

The replacement cost for the main station is based on the construction cost of the Little Lake Fire Protection District fire station recently constructed in 2020. The cost estimate is $807.07 for the station which includes an adjustment for inflation. The estimated land value is based on market research conducted by SCI Consulting Group assessed land value for sales within 2022. The estimated replacement value of the Authority’s apparatus, vehicles, and equipment inventory is based on unit cost assumptions provided by the Authority. Estimated values of older apparatus have been discounted from the replacement value of the new apparatus to reflect their age. (The detailed inventory and estimated replacement value for each is provided in Appendix A.) As shown below, the estimated value of the Authority’s existing facilities, apparatus, and equipment is $22.6 million in 2023 dollars.

DETERMINATION OF THE FIRE IMPACT FEE
The Act requires that development impact fees be determined in a way that ensures a reasonable relationship between the need for fire protection facilities, apparatus and equipment, and the type of development project on which the fee is imposed. In this section, the Authority’s existing fire facilities standard is determined and then applied to three residential and six nonresidential land uses categories in proportion to the demand they create as measured by their EDU demand factor.

EXISTING FIRE FACILITIES STANDARD
The Authority’s ratio of existing facilities, apparatus, and equipment to the existing demand establishes the standard for determining new development’s fair share of the cost to replace and expand the Authority’s facilities as growth occurs. As shown below, the standard is represented by the existing fire system facilities cost of $1,661.40 per demand EDU.

FIGURE 7 – FIRE FACILITIES COST PER DEMAND EDU
Existing Fire System Facilities 1 $22,598,339
Existing Demand EDUs 2 13,602
Existing Fire Facility Cost Per EDU $1,661.40
Notes:
1 See Figure 6.
2 See Figure 5.

RESIDENTIAL FIRE IMPACT FEE DETERMINATION
Figure 8 on the following page presents the calculation of the Authority’s proposed residential fire impact fees. As shown, the residential fees are determined by multiplying the facilities standard by their respective facilities demand EDU factor plus an additional 4 percent for annual administration of the fire impact fee program. The fee program administrative cost component is designed to offset the cost of County collection, documentation, annual reporting requirements, five-year report requirements, periodic Nexus Study updates, and other costs reasonably related to compliance with the Act.

Since residential land uses have different dwelling unit occupancies and sizes, the residential fire impact fee is expressed on a per square footage basis for the following three residential land use categories. The three residential land use categories are defined below.

Page 335 of 511 ends

PAGE 14

UKIAH VALLEY FIRE AUTHORITY
FIRE IMPACT FEE NEXUS STUDY, 2023
 “Single-family housing” means detached and attached one-family dwelling units with an assessor’s parcel number for each unit.
 “Multifamily housing” means buildings or structures designed for two or more families for living or sleeping purposes and having kitchen and bath facilities for each family.
 “Mobile home” means a development area for residential occupancy in vehicles that require a permit to be moved on a highway, other than a motor vehicle designed or used for human habitation and for being drawn by another vehicle.

The fire impact fee shall be charged on the square footage within the perimeter of a residential structure. Garages, carports, walkways, overhangs, patios, enclosed patios, detached storage structures, or similar areas are excluded.

As stated earlier, the Act requires that development impact fees be determined in a way that ensures a reasonable relationship between the fee and the type of development on which the fee is imposed. Since different nonresidential land uses have varying employment densities, the nonresidential fire impact fee is expressed per square foot of building area based on their respective facilities demand EDU factor for five nonresidential land use categories. The five nonresidential land use categories are shown below.  “Retail/Commercial” means retail, commercial, educational, and hotel/motel construction.
 “Office” means general, professional, and medical office construction.;  “Industrial” means manufacturing construction.
 “Agriculture” means a structure designed and constructed to house farm implements, hay, grain, poultry, livestock, or other horticultural products, including storage coolers. This structure shall not be a place of human habitation or a place of employment where agricultural products are processed, treated or packaged; nor shall it be a place used by the public.
 “Warehouse/Distribution” means buildings devoted to the storage or distribution of non-agricultural products. A distribution center for a set of products is a warehouse or other specialized building, which is stocked with products or goods to be redistributed to retailers, wholesalers, or directly to consumers.

The nonresidential fee shall be charged for “covered and enclosed space” within the perimeter of a nonresidential structure. Any storage areas incidental to the principal use of the development, garage, parking structure, unenclosed walkway, or utility or disposal area are excluded.

PROJECTED FIRE IMPACT FEE REVENUE
Figure 10 projects fee revenue through 2043. Total fire impact fee revenue (in 2023 dollars) is then estimated by multiplying the facilities standard by demand EDU growth.

Residential demand assumes an annual growth rate of 0.5 percent. It is assumed that nonresidential development will occur proportionately. As shown, fire impact fee revenue will contribute approximately $2.98 million (in 2023 dollars) towards the Authority’s future long-term capital improvement plan, representing new development fair share of the plan.

Certainly, arguments can be made for higher or lower demand growth. However, the projected demand growth and fee revenue are merely estimates for planning purposes.

Notes:

It is important to note that the fire impact fee program is designed not to depend on a specific capital improvement plan and a particular level of new development. Only enough fee revenue will be generated for the Authority to expand its existing level of service to serve the growing community.

Fee revenue may be used to fund up to 100% of the cost of the new land for fire stations, construction of new fire stations, expansion of existing fire stations, and the purchase of apparatus, vehicle, and equipment purchases added to the Authority existing inventory.

Since the Authority will need to replace apparatus, vehicles, and equipment more quickly due to the increased service calls from the growth in the persons and structure area

Page 339 of 511 ends

PAGE 18

UKIAH VALLEY FIRE AUTHORITY
FIRE IMPACT FEE NEXUS STUDY, 2023
created by new development, the Authority may use fee proceeds to fund up to 10.5 percent of the replacement cost of existing apparatus, vehicle, and equipment.3 Fee revenue may not be used to fund 1) the renovation of existing facilities and 2) operational, maintenance, or repair costs. (The use of the fee is detailed further in the next section.) The Authority will need to fund existing deficiencies and any other purchases and improvement costs above its existing level of service with other funding sources. Other potential funding sources include but are not limited to, a general obligation bond measure, state and federal grants, the Authority’s general fund, and existing or new special tax and assessment proceeds, if allowable.

NEXUS FINDINGS
This section frames the Nexus Study findings in terms of the legislated requirements to demonstrate the legal justification of the fire impact fee. These requirements are discussed below.

PURPOSE OF FEE
The purpose of the fire impact fee is to fund the cost of fire protection and emergency response facilities, apparatus, and equipment attributable to new residential and nonresidential development. The fire impact fees will ensure that new development will not burden existing development with the cost of facilities required to accommodate growth as it occurs.

USE OF FEE REVENUE
Fee revenue will be used solely and exclusively to fund facilities (land, stations, and other buildings), apparatus (engines, ambulances, and other vehicles), and equipment costs that expand the Authority’s fire system capacity. Below is a summary of the allowable and prohibited uses of fee revenue.

FIGURE 11 – SUMMARY OF ALLOWABLE AND PROHIBITED USES OF FEE REVENUE Allowable Uses Prohibited Uses
• The cost of new (added) or expanded
land and facilities (100%)
• The cost of apparatus, vehicles and

• Operational, maintenance or repair

FIRE IMPACT FEE NEXUS STUDY, 2023

BENEFIT RELATIONSHIP
The fee will be collected as development occurs. In order to maintain its existing level of fire protection and emergency response services, fee revenue will be used to replace and expand the Authority’s facilities, apparatus, and equipment to meet the additional demand generated by the new residents and employees and new structural area created by new development projects.

Fee revenue will be deposited into a separate fire impact fee account or fund in a manner to avoid any commingling of the fees with other revenues and funds. The fee revenue will be restricted to the uses described in the “Use of Fee Revenue” finding. Additionally, the Act ensures that fee revenue is expended expeditiously or refunded to the developer.

These Act requirements ensure that a development project paying the fire impact fee will benefit from its use. Moreover, since the Authority’s fire protection and emergency response resources are organized as an integrated fire system, improvements and purchases with the Authority benefit the entire fire system.

IMPACT / NEED RELATIONSHIP
New residential and nonresidential development projects in the Authority will grow the persons (residents and employees) and the structural area (residential area and nonresidential building area) in persons live or work. The growth in persons and structural area will create additional need for the Authority’s fire protection and prevention, emergency response service, and a corresponding need for new or expanded facilities and replacement of apparatus, vehicles, and equipment. The fee will be imposed on different types of development projects for the additional service population generated and structural area created by new development projects.

ROUGH PROPORTIONAL RELATIONSHIP
The cost of fire protection facilities, apparatus, and equipment attributable to a development project is based upon the level of existing development served by the Authority’s existing fire protection and emergency response facilities. The use of a facility standard methodology to determine the fire impact fee achieves proportionality between existing development and new development. Moreover, these equivalent costs are applied to nine land use categories in proportion to the need they create for improved and expanded facilities.

The use of a fire facilities demand factor to determine the fire impact fee schedule achieves proportionality across the types of development on which the fee is imposed.

Larger development projects will generate a higher number of persons and structural area to protect and, as a result, will pay a higher fee than smaller development projects. Thus,

Page 342 of 511 ends

PAGE 21

UKIAH VALLEY FIRE AUTHORITY
FIRE IMPACT FEE NEXUS STUDY, 2023
the application of the fire impact fee schedule to a specific project ensures a reasonable relationship between the fee and the cost of the facilities, apparatus, and equipment attributable to that project.

FEE PROGRAM ADMINISTRATION REQUIREMENTS
This section contains general requirements for the administration of the fee program. The specific statutory requirements for the administration of the fee program may be found in the Mitigation Fee Act (California Govt. Code § 66000 et seq.).

ACCOUNTING REQUIREMENTS
Proceeds from the fire impact fee should be deposited into a new and separate fund or account so that there will be no commingling of fees with other revenue. The Authority’s current fire impact funds or accounts should be closed after fully expended. The fire impact fees should be expended solely for the purpose for which they were collected. Any interest earned by such account should be deposited in that account and expended only for the purpose for which originally collected.

REPORTING REQUIREMENTS
The following information, entitled Annual Report, must be made available to the public within 180 days after the last day of each fiscal year:
 a brief description of the type of fee in the account;  the amount of the fee;
 the beginning and ending balance of the account;
 the fees collected that year and the interest earned;  an identification of each public improvement for which the fees were expended and the amount of the expenditures for each improvement;  an identification of an approximate date by which development of the improvement will commence if the local agency determines that sufficient funds have been collected to complete financing of an incomplete public improvement;  a description of each inter-fund transfer or loan made from the account or fund, including the public improvement on which the transferred or loaned fees will be expended, the date on which any loan will be repaid, and the rate of interest to be returned to the account; and
 the amount of money refunded under section Govt. Code § 66001.

The Authority shall review the information made available to the public pursuant to paragraph (1) at the next regularly scheduled public meeting, not less than 15 days after this information is made available to the public, as required by this subdivision. Notice of the time and place of the meeting, including the address where this information may be

Page 346 of 511 ends

PAGE 25

UKIAH VALLEY FIRE AUTHORITY
FIRE IMPACT FEE NEXUS STUDY, 2023
reviewed, shall be mailed, at least 15 days prior to the meeting, to any interested party who files a written request with the Authority or the County for mailed notice of the meeting. Any written request for mailed notices shall be valid for one year from the date on which it is filed unless a renewal request is filed. Renewal requests for mailed notices shall be filed on or before April 1 of each year. The legislative body may establish a reasonable annual charge for sending notices based on the estimated cost of providing the service.

For the fifth fiscal year following the first receipt of any fire impact fee proceeds, and every five years thereafter, the Authority must comply with Government Code Section 66001(d)(1) by affirmatively demonstrating that the Authority still needs unexpended fire impact fees to achieve the purpose for which it was originally imposed and that the Authority has a plan on how to use the unexpended balance to achieve that purpose.

Specifically, the Authority shall make all of the following findings, entitled Five-Year Report, with respect to that portion of the account or fund remaining unexpended, whether committed or uncommitted:
 Identify the purpose to which the fee is to be put;
 Demonstrate a reasonable relationship between the fee and the purpose for which it is charged;
 Identify all sources and amounts of funding anticipated to complete financing in incomplete improvements; and
 Designate the approximate dates on which the funding is expected to be deposited into the appropriate account or fund.

A refund of all or any part of such unexpended or unappropriated fee revenue, together with any actual interest accrued thereon, in the manner described in Section 66001 (e) of the Government Code, shall be provided to the current record owner of any property for which a fee was paid; provided that if the administrative costs of refunding such fee revenue exceed the amount to be refunded.

FEE PROGRAM UPDATES
The fee program should be reviewed regularly and updated with any changes in the Authority’s demographics or significant changes in the Authority’s capital facilities plan.

Page 347 of 511 ends

PAGE 26

UKIAH VALLEY FIRE AUTHORITY
FIRE IMPACT FEE NEXUS STUDY, 2023

TRANSPARENCY REQUIREMENTS
The Authority must clearly post the information on the Authority’s website regarding the fee program:
 The current fee schedule indicated the effective date when approved by the County Board of Supervisors and the City Council.
 Current and five previous annual accounting reports.
 Fire Impact Fee Nexus Study, Final Report

ANNUAL INFLATIONARY ADJUSTMENT
In order for the Authority to maintain its level of service, the fee will need to be automatically adjusted annually commensurate with changes in the cost of facilities, apparatus, and equipment. Therefore, the fire impact fee should be adjusted automatically without further action by the Authority Board, the City Council, or the County Board on the first day of each fiscal year by the previous calendar percentage change in the Engineering News-Record Construction Cost Index, or its successor publication.

FEE EXEMPTIONS
The following development projects are exempted from payment of the fee:
 A structure owned by a governmental agency.
 A structure which is being reconstructed following damage or destruction by fire or another casualty, or the voluntary demolition thereof, provided that the number of structures or the size in such reconstructed structure is no greater than the number of structures or the size of the structure prior to such damage, destruction or demolition.
 A development project found to have no impact on the Authority’s fire system.  An accessory dwelling unit less than 750 square feet.

FEE CREDITS
A fee credit shall be given for demolished existing square footage as part of a new development project in order to comply with the Act and recent court cases. The fee credit shall be based on the effective fee for the land use category that was demolished.

Additionally, subject to certain restrictions, if a developer dedicates land, constructs facilities or provide apparatus/equipment for the Authority, the fire impact fees imposed on that development project may be adjusted to reflect a fee credit for the cost of the dedicated land, facilities constructed, and apparatus/equipment provided.

OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS

OF THE UKIAH VALLEY FIRE DISTRICT
November 28th, 2023

RESOLUTION APPROVING THE UKIAH VALLEY FIRE DISTRICT FIRE

IMPACT FEE NEXUS STUDY AND REQUESTING THE CITY OF UKIAH

ADOPT AND IMPLEMENT THE PROPOSED FIRE IMPACT FEE PROGRAM

ON BEHALF OF THE DISTRICT
WHEREAS, the Board of Directors of the Ukiah Valley Fire District ("District") recognizes that continuing development within the District places added responsibilities and costs to the District; and
WHEREAS, AB 1600 was adopted and codified in California Government Code Section 66000, allowing the establishing, increasing, or imposing of a development fee as a condition of approval where the purpose and use of the fee were identified, and reasonable relationship to the development project was demonstrated; and
WHEREAS, the District Board of Directors ("District Board") desires to establish a new Fire Impact Fee program ("Fees or Fee Program") for the District to fund fire protection facilities, apparatus, and equipment necessary to mitigate the impacts caused by new development with the District's service area; and
WHEREAS, the District Board has received and considered the District's Fire Impact Fee Nexus Study prepared by SCI Consulting Group dated August 2023 Final Report ("Nexus Study") that provides the required information to establish a new Fire Impact Fee program.

NOW, THEREFORE, IT IS HEREBY RESOLVED that:
1) The District Board hereby receives and approves the Nexus Study. 2) After considering the Nexus Study, this Resolution, and after considering the testimony received at their November 28, 2023 meeting, the District hereby makes the following findings:
a) The District does not have existing fire protection facilities and equipment that could provide an adequate level of services to new development within the District's service area, and
b) The District does not have sufficient funds available to construct additional facilities and purchase additional equipment from fund balances, capital facility funds, property tax sources, fire suppression assessments, or any other available sources, and
c) The lack of additional fire protection facilities and equipment to service new development projects would create a situation that is dangerous to public health and safety if fire protection mitigation fees are not levied within the District, and d) The Fee Program and the Fees proposed in the Nexus Study and approved pursuant to this Resolution are for the purposes of funding the cost offire protection

and emergency response facilities, apparatus, and equipment attributable to new residential and nonresidential development in the District's service area; and e) The fee proposed in the Nexus Study and approved pursuant to this Resolution will be used to expand the District's facilities and equipment, replace and expand the District's apparatus and vehicles to serve new development, and f) The uses of the Fees proposed in the Nexus Study and approved pursuant to this Resolution are reasonably related to the types of development projects on which the fees are imposed in that fee revenue from the development projects will be used to expand the District's facilities and equipment, and replace and expand the District's apparatus and vehicles to meet the additional demand generated by the new residents and employees and new structural area created by the development projects, and
g) The Fees proposed in the Nexus Study, and approved pursuant to this Resolution, bear a reasonable relationship to the need for fire protection and emergency response facilities, apparatus, and equipment in that each development project will create additional need for the District's fire protection and emergency response services and a corresponding need for new or expanded facilities, apparatus, and (
equipment. The Fees will be imposed on different types of development projects ( in proportion to the additional service population generated and structural area ~ created by new development projects, and
h) The Nexus Study demonstrates that there is a reasonable relationship between the amount of the fee and the cost of the fire protection facilities, apparatus, and equipment attributable to the development on which the fee is imposed in that the costs are based upon the level of existing development served by the District's existing fire protection facilities and applied proportionately land use categories in proportion to the need they create for expanded fire facilities, apparatus, and equipment.
3) The District finds pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act ("CEQA"), this action is not a "project" because the Resolution provides a mechanism for funding fire protection and emergency response facilities, apparatus, and equipment but does not involve a commitment to any specific project for such purposes that may result in a potentially significant impact on the environment. (CEQA Guidelines§ 15378.) 4) The District does hereby approve the following Fees on new development which shall be collected upon issuance of a building permit:

UKIAH VALLEY FIRE AUTHORITY

FLEET REPLACEMENT PLAN
(2022)

Page 7 of 23 ends
Page 369 of 511 ends

The Ukiah Valley Fire Authority (UVFA) currently
does not have a fleet replacement plan, nor are
funds set aside in the annual budget for future
vehicle purchases. In the past, purchases were only
made when absolutely necessary, creating a fiscal
crisis when a vehicle needed to be replaced. This
document was created to identify & assess the
condition of our existing fleet and recommend a
manageable fleet replacement schedule for UVFA.

Team members completed a comprehensive study
that included the status of all current apparatus
within the fleet and analysis of National, State, and
Local recommended guidelines for replacement
schedules.

Emergency service vehicles should not be considered similar to other city departments or private vehicles. When called, the public depends on their emergency responders to arrive promptly with the appropriate resources and equipment to manage whatever crisis is at hand.

The question is always raised as to why emergency services consider the useful life of emergency vehicles and equipment considerably shorter than non-emergency vehicles and equipment, replacing vehicles and equipment well before other departments consider a replacement. The answer is simple: emergency service team members’ lives depend on properly well-functioning vehicles and equipment. If a non-emergency vehicle breaks down or stops working, the most significant loss is time and aggravation; in retrospect, if an emergency vehicle breaks down, the most significant loss could be life. In a structure fire, if the pump stops pumping water to the firefighters, or in the wildland setting, if the vehicle stops running, team members could become entrapped in the fire path and unable to escape causing severe injury or death. These are just a few of the dangers faced while using substandard equipment.

The standard the fire service nationwide uses for fire apparatus is the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA). NFPA is the standard for the modern fire service’s policies, guidelines, and codes. The most notably used measures for this document include:
• NFPA 1901 Standard for Automotive Fire Apparatus
• NFPA 1906 Standard for Wildland Fire Apparatus
• NFPA 1911 Standard for the Inspection, Maintenance, Testing, and Retirement of InService Emergency Vehicles • NFPA 1917 Standard for Automotive Ambulances
NFPA 1901 Standard Guidelines for First Line and Reserve Fire Apparatus:
“To maximize firefighter capabilities and minimize the risk of injuries, it is important that fire apparatus be equipped with the latest safety feature and operating capabilities. In the last 10 to 15 years, much progress has been made in upgrading functional capabilities and improving the safety features of fire apparatus. Apparatus more than 15 years old might include only a few of the safety upgrades required by the recent editions of the NFPA fire department apparatus standards. Because the changes, upgrades, and fine-tuning of NFPA 1901 have been truly significant, especially in the area of safety, fire departments should seriously consider the value (or risk) to firefighters of keeping fire apparatus more than 15 years in first-line service.”

Page 8 of 23 ends
Page 370 of 511 ends

“It is a generally accepted fact that fire apparatus, like all types of mechanical devices, have a finite life. The length of that life depends on many factors, including vehicle mileage and engine hours, quality of preventative maintenance program, quality of driver training program and rules enforcement, whether the vehicle was used within the design parameters, whether the fire apparatus was manufactured on a custom or commercial chassis, quality of workmanship by the original manufacturer, quality of the components used, and availability of replacement parts, to name a few.”
Additionally, since 2009, the following requirements have been included in NFPA 1901:
• rollover stability
• tire pressure indicators
• seat belt warning systems requiring all occupants to be properly seated and belted extended seat belt length requirements resulting from an in-depth anthropometric study evaluating the size of today’s fully dressed firefighter • roadability, including minimum accelerations and top speed limitations • enhanced step and work surface lighting
• cab integrity testing
• increased use of retroreflective striping in the rear of apparatus, providing a consistent, identifiable set of marking for all automotive fire apparatus Four key elements that need to be considered to determine the valuable service life of fire department apparatus are Safety, Service, Technological, and Economics. • Safety: The most crucial factor to consider in the life span of an apparatus is Team member safety; older apparatus do not meet the same safety standards that newer fire apparatus must meet. More recent fire apparatus have also incorporated many technological and safety changes to keep pace with the commercial and automotive industry standards. • Service: The service life of an apparatus or useable life is determined by the piece of equipment being able to perform its needed duty. Service life is dependent on numerous factors and variables. The most significant critical components are service hours, mileage, the number of responses, overall wear & tear, and pumping/operating capacity. • Technological: Technological advances have made considerable strides in the past twenty years. These include enhancements to antilock braking systems, traction control, rollover stability, breaking ability, foam systems (environmental concerns), etc. Though an older apparatus may be capable of fulfilling the original role it was designed for, it cannot match the performance or safety requirements of new vehicles. • Economic: Total cost for effect over a determined period. The most utilized expenses include depreciation, operating costs, fuel, oil, maintenance, repairs, available parts, downtime, and operational operator training. With any vehicle, the cost of maintaining a given piece of equipment increases over time until it is more expensive to operate and repair than to replace.

The Fleet Replacement Plan was coordinated with the City of Ukiah Fleet Mechanics, considering NFPA standards, current maintenance records, up-to-date costs, and current and expected usage (hours) on all vehicles.

Critical Note: (Hours vs. Mileage) In agreeance with the City of Ukiah Fleet Mechanics and Fleet Manager, the most vital factor is HOURS, not mileage on fire service equipment.

However, mileage is also a factor in recommended replacements; fire service vehicles can drive a short distance but then run for exceedingly long periods, causing additional wear on parts.

Page 9 of 23 ends
Page 371 of 511 ends

This plan covers all types of vehicles currently operated by UVFA and is divided into five separate categories:
• Fire Engine/Truck: The crucial component utilized by the Fire Service, allowing team members to respond to any emergency ranging from fire, medical, rescue, hazmat, vehicle fire/crashes, etc. Fire engines and trucks are broken down into various classifications (TypeI, Type-II, Type-III, etc.) based on the capabilities or specialized equipment of the apparatus. • Water Tenders: Are designed to shuttle water to areas with limited or no water access.

Water tenders can receive water from various sources, including fire hydrants, reservoirs, lakes, ponds, rivers, creeks, etc., then move the resource to another location, supplying water to the fire line. With the addition of a fire-rated pump, the apparatus can is utilized tactically if necessary.
• Ambulances: Are designed for critical care of injured and ill patients while transporting them to an appropriate medical facility. Ambulances have various classifications (Type-I, Type-II, Type-III, etc.) based on the capabilities and size of the apparatus. • Specialized Vehicles: This includes all specialized vehicles generally designed for a specific purpose (Support/Air Unit, USAR, Boat) utilized by the UVFA. These units play a critical role in the success of the UVFA’s mission.
• Emergency Service Staff/Light Duty Vehicles: Are divided into three main categories. o Chief/Command Vehicle: (Front-Line) used by Chief Officers for day-to-day duties and responding to incidents in an overhead capacity.
o Fire Prevention/Inspection Vehicle: (Reserve) used by staff who carry out daily operations with fire prevention and inspections overseen by the Fire Marshall’s Office, and additionally, respond to larger-scale incidents within the UVFA’s jurisdiction.
o Utility Vehicle: (Reserve) utilized by various staff on an as-needed basis for tasks associated with UVFA’s operational needs.

Fire Engines/Trucks
Description:

The crucial component utilized by the Fire Service allows team members to respond to any emergency ranging from fire, medical, rescue, hazmat, vehicle fire/crashes, etc. Fire engines and trucks are broken down into various classifications (Type-I, Type-II, Type-III, etc.) based on the capabilities or specialized equipment of the apparatus.

The most notable benchmark is response volume which indicates usage hours. Other aspects include excepted future use, mileage, past apparatus required maintenance, and downtime (out of service due to repairs); it is recommended that front-line vehicles be placed in reserve status at 6,000 hours or 7 to 10 years of front-line service. Additionally, it is recommended that all reserve apparatus be retired after 12,000 hours of service or 15 to 20 of service.

Plan:

Due to the current use (Hours), E-6881 and E-6863 will be well over 6,000 before the seven-year mark as, on average, each apparatus puts approximately 1,500 hours of usage per year. E-6881 has the higher use of the two, which puts it first for replacement.

Page 11 of 23 ends
Page 373 of 511 ends

Utilizing the guide above:
• E-6881 (Type-I): It is recommended for replacement in 2025; the current E-6881 will be repurposed as a reserve and replace E6882.
• E-6882 (Type-I): will be replaced as the current front-line apparatuses (Type-I) are moved to reserve status and be listed as surplus.

Water Tender
Description:

Water tenders are specialized equipment designed to shuttle water to areas with limited or no water access. Water tenders can receive water from various sources, including fire hydrants, reservoirs, lakes, ponds, rivers, creeks, etc., then move the resource to another location, supplying water to the fire line. Water tenders are mainly designed on a large truck chassis with a large water tank and fire-rated pump capable of carrying anywhere between 1,000 and 4,000 gallons. Water tenders are typically larger and designed around the single purpose of shuttling water in rugged or steep terrain. With the addition of a fire-rated pump, the apparatus can be utilized tactically if necessary.

The most notable benchmark is usage hours. Future use, past apparatus required maintenance, mileage, and downtime (out of service due to repairs) also play a large part in replacement. It is recommended that front-line apparatus be placed in reserve status at 6,000 hours or 7 to 10 years of front-line service. Additionally, it is recommended that all reserves be retired after 12,000 hours of service or 15 to 20 of service.

WT6892 WATER TENDER 2005 PETERBILT FRONT-LINE 682 2022
Plan:

The UVFA’s current water tender is mainly utilized by our Volunteer response team members and is our fleet’s most mutual-aid requested apparatus. Additionally, our water tender goes under service for hire multiple times a year through CalFire’s programs, which justifies the means and covers the purchase cost.

Utilizing the guide above:
• WT-6892: A new water tender has been placed on order with a delayed delivery date of late 2023 to early 2024 due to pandemic-related delays. Upon delivery, the current WT-6892 will be repurposed as non-emergency and utilized by the Public Works Department.

All other subsequent replacements are listed in Appendix A, with projected associated costs in Appendix B.

AMBULANCES
Description:

As with Fire Engine/Truck Apparatus, the Ambulance plays a vital role in the service model for the UVFA. Ambulances are designed for critical care of injured and ill patients while transporting them to an appropriate medical facility. Ambulances have various classifications (Type-I, Type-II, Type-III, etc.) based on the capabilities and size of the apparatus. As there has been a continuous increase in calls for service over the previous years, UVFA began augmenting the system to serve the community better. As of 2022, UVFA maintains one fully staffed Ambulance and two that can be up/cross-staff by our engine companies when available, with an end goal to up staff two additional Ambulances.

As with fire engines, the most notable benchmark for UVFA is response volume, excepted future use, past Ambulance required maintenance and downtime; it is recommended that front-line vehicles be placed in reserve status at 7 to 10 years and/or 6,000 hours of service. Additionally, it is recommended that all reserve apparatus be retired after 15 to 20 years or 12,000 hours of service.

Specialized Vehicle
Description
Specialized vehicles are generally designed for a specific purpose (Support/Air Unit, USAR, Boat) utilized by the UVFA. These units play a critical role in the success of the UVFA’s mission. The Support/Air unit is used during fire incidents as a Rehab unit and resupplying air for using SelfContained Breathing Apparatus (SCBA) while engaged in structural firefighting. The USAR (Urban Search & Rescue) is designed for natural disasters, confined space rescue, and collapse rescue.

The Boat is used for water operations and rescue.

Support/Air and USAR were based on usage of the vehicle; it is recommended for replacement at 12,000 or 15 to 20 years of service. As for the Boat, recommended replacement is front-line for 7 to 10 years and retired after 15 to 20 years of service. Based on the degrading of the marine material over time and hard use.

Emergency Service Staff Light Duty Vehicle
Description:

These vehicles are divided into three main categories.
• Chief/Command Vehicle: (Front-Line) used by Chief Officers for day-to-day duties and responding to incidents in an overhead capacity.
• Fire Prevention/Inspection Vehicle: (Reserve) used by staff who carry out daily operations with fire prevention and inspections overseen by the Fire Marshall’s Office, additionally, respond to larger-scale incidents within the UVFA’s jurisdiction. • Utility Vehicle: (Reserve) utilized by various staff on an as-needed basis for tasks associated with UVFA’s operational needs.

As with most UVFA equipment, the most notable benchmark for UVFA is response volume which indicates usage hours. It is recommended that front-line vehicles be placed in reserve status at 6,000 hours or 7 to 10 years of front-line service. Additionally, it is recommended that all reserve equipment be retired after 12,000 hours of service or 15 to 20 of service. Other aspects include excepted future use, past apparatus required maintenance and downtime, and cost allocation.

6. CEQA Guidelines Section 15183 Findings of Consistency Summary: Council will consider introducing by title only an ordinance modifying Ukiah City Code to preserve and strengthen agricultural uses in and around Ukiah that impact the regional economy, consistent with the Ukiah 2040 General Plan.

Background: On December 7, 2022, the City Council adopted the Ukiah 2040 General Plan, which included an Agriculture Element (Attachment 1) highlighting the importance of collaborative approaches to agricultural resources and the need to align Mendocino County and City policies regarding the preservation of regional working lands. Furthermore, the General Plan recognized that consistency across City and County standards reduces administrative complexity for property owners and operators, creating a shared and efficient regulatory framework.

As part of the 2040 General Plan, an implementation program, goals, and policies were specifically included to align Ukiah's agricultural standards with the regional standards of Mendocino County (Attachment 2), as outlined in the Discussion section of this report. This alignment aims to protect agricultural lands within Ukiah's Sphere of Influence from incompatible uses and ensures that zoning standards support existing agricultural practices if lands are "prezoned" and subsequently "annexed" into the City.

While originally scheduled for review by the Planning Commission on November 13, 2024, City Staff requested that the review and hearing be postponed to ensure feedback could be incorporated from entities such as the Mendocino County Farm Bureau (MCFB), Mendocino County Resource Conservation District (MCRCD), Mendocino County Department of Planning and Building Services (PBS), and the Mendocino County Agricultural Commissioner.

On December 11, 2024, the Ukiah Planning Commission evaluated the proposed amendments to the Ukiah City Code ("UCC") and unanimously recommended approval to the City Council through adoption of Resolution No. 2024-01 (Attachment 3). Since the Commission's recommendation, Staff has revised the proposed Ordinance to incorporate minor typographical edits, along with changes identified by stakeholders— particularly the Mendocino County Farm Bureau (MCFB)—that were discussed with the Planning Commission,

Page 387 of 511 ends
Page 2 of 4 ends

as well as recommendations from the City Attorney for consistency with state law. These changes are discussed below.

Discussion: The Agricultural Consistency Ordinance (hereafter referred to as the "Proposed Ordinance") (Attachment 4) is primarily intended to align the City’s Agricultural Exclusive (A-E) district with the agricultural standards, allowances, and land use terminology adopted by Mendocino County. This alignment specifically pertains to Chapter 20.032 (Agriculture Use Types), Chapter 20.052 (Agricultural District), and Chapter 20.060 (Rangeland District) of the Mendocino County Code. The alignment would be implemented through an update to the City’s Agricultural Exclusive (A-E) district.

These changes aim to ensure that agricultural operations within the City’s jurisdiction are regulated consistently and predictably, both now and in the future. By aligning with Mendocino County’s agricultural standards, the City seeks to provide clear guidelines and reduce uncertainty for property owners and active agricultural businesses.

The City does not intend to adopt the County’s approach or regulations regarding cannabis cultivation or cannabis-related businesses. Instead, the City proposes minor modifications to its existing cannabis policies— primarily to allow, on a discretionary basis, the cultivation of mixed-light or outdoor cannabis within the A-E or Agricultural Combining (-A) district. Unlike the County’s ministerial processes, the City will continue to require discretionary review for all new cannabis related businesss.

Below are key aspects of the Proposed Ordinance and its implications.

Standardizing Agricultural Regulations
Currently, there are no lands within the City limits zoned as A-E; therefore, these changes would apply to lands that are prezoned and subsequently annexed into the City's jurisdiction. Aligning the City’s agricultural regulations with those of Mendocino County ensures confidence and consistency for parcels zoned as agricultural within the County, should annexation efforts be pursued. This alignment provides a clear and predictable regulatory framework, reducing uncertainty for property owners and active agricultural operations, as identified and visualized in Attachment 5. By harmonizing land-use terminology, setback requirements, and performance standards, the City demonstrates its commitment to maintaining the integrity of existing agricultural uses while promoting efficient integration between the City and surrounding areas in the event of annexation.

Additionally, the Proposed Ordinance would align the City’s Agricultural Combining (-A) district, which is currently limited to approximately 39 acres adjacent to the City’s Wastewater Treatment Plant (WWTP). This area has been owned and land-banked by the City of Ukiah since 2018 as part of the Norgard acquisition but was recently annexed into the City in 2023. The alignment of the Agricultural Combining (-A) district would reflect the changes and terminology adjustments made to the City’s agricultural policies and regulations.

Similar to the City’s A-E district, the (-A) Combining District has not been updated since 1982. As a primary function, the Proposed Ordinance reflects the City’s intent to implement the 2040 General Plan in a timely manner. Specifically, Implementation Program C of the Agriculture Element states:
"The City shall revise [its] agricultural standards and use terminology to be consistent with adjacent jurisdictions within the Ukiah Valley to support future annexation efforts." The Proposed Ordinance seeks to establish a consistent regulatory framework for agricultural and ancillary uses by codifying recently updated Mendocino County regulations, such as minimum lot sizes, setbacks, development standards, and allowances, into the City's A-E zoning district. It also anticipates evolving landuse needs by incorporating certain Mendocino County provisions for outdoor commercial cannabis cultivation while maintaining alignment with the City of Ukiah's discretionary permitting requirements for cannabis businesses. This ensures that discretionary review processes are required for outdoor commercial cannabis cultivation and that such cultivation is a permitted use on A-E or (-A) lands only, allowing the City to apply conditions of approval as necessary. Although the Ordinance primarily focuses on agricultural alignment, it is critical for the City to refine commercial cannabis regulations to ensure compliance with state requirements, given California’s dual regulatory system and evolving regulatory landscape. No other cannabis uses or

Page 388 of 511 ends
Page 3 of 4 ends

cultivation standards are to be modified.

Minor Revisions to the Ordinance to Reflect Stakeholder Input Since the Planning Commission's recommendation, several changes have been made to reflect stakeholder input, including from the Mendocino County Farm Bureau (MCFB) and the City Attorney. As suggested by MCFB, within UCC §9160 of the Agricultural Exclusive (A-E) District, the City revised the front, side, and rear setbacks to 50 feet for parcels over 40 acres and 25 feet for parcels less than 20 acres.

Additionally, regarding commercial cannabis cultivation, the redundant provision on generator usage in UCC §9174.4 has been shortened, as generator use is already regulated by both the Department of Cannabis Control (DCC) and the California Air Resources Board (CARB). Further clarifications have been added to UCC §9174 to define ownership of cannabis businesses in alignment with Business and Professions Code § 26001.

Finally, a provision was added to UCC §9174.2(B)(5), stating that a cannabis business operation plan may not need to include all listed provisions, that Community Development Staff will determine whether these requirements are applicable, based on the location or nature of the business. This aligns with UCC §9174.2(A)(3)(u), which specifies that any provisions deemed necessary by the Community Development Department to demonstrate compliance must be included with the application.

Provisions for Discretionary Review for Commercial Cannabis Similar to other 'Permitted' uses within the City’s Agricultural Combining (-A) district, Staff recommends that the review and hearing body for outdoor commercial cannabis cultivation on associated lands be set at the level of a Zoning Administrator, ie this use will require a minor use permit. The Zoning Administrator generally has a specialized focus on zoning-related matters and can apply regulations efficiently without the need for the more in-depth policy discussions that typically occur at the level of the Planning Commission. As conveyed, "Permitted" uses in the Agricultural Combining (-A) district are often reviewed at the Zoning Administrator level. Maintaining consistency across the district helps create a more predictable regulatory environment for property owners, developers, and applicants. Treating commercial cannabis cultivation similarly to other agricultural uses avoids creating unnecessary discrepancies.

Analysis Pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act In accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), as evaluated in Attachment 6, there is no new information resulting from the proposed ordinance amendments that would result in more severe impacts than those considered in the Ukiah 2040 General Plan EIR. Section 15183 of the State CEQA Guidelines states that a project shall qualify for an exemption if the following findings can be made:
1) The project is consistent with the development density established by existing zoning, community plan or general plan policies for which an EIR was certified.
2) There are no project-specific effects which are peculiar to the project or its site, and which the Ukiah 2040 EIR failed to analyze as significant effects.
3) There are no project-specific impacts which the Ukiah 2040 EIR failed to analyze as significant effects. 4) There are no potentially significant offsite and/or cumulative impacts that the Ukiah 2040 EIR failed to evaluate.
5) There is no substantial new information that results in more severe impacts than anticipated by the Ukiah 2040 EIR.

Staff recommends that the Council introduce by title only an ordinance amending the Ukiah City Code to preserve and strengthen agricultural uses in and around Ukiah consistent with the Ukiah 2040 General Plan.

Recommended Action: Introduce by title only an Ordinance modifying Ukiah City Code to preserve and strengthen agricultural uses in and around Ukiah consistent with the Ukiah 2040 General Plan.

8. Agriculture Element
Policy Document | December 2022 Page 8-3
Formalized agriculture within the Ukiah Valley began in the 1850s. Efforts included the raising of livestock and the growing of various grains, and hops. When the Northwestern Pacific Railroad was completed in 1889, prunes, potatoes, pears, and hops were sent from the Ukiah Valley to San Francisco and other regional markets. Hops, pears, prunes and grapes were the most widely planted crops in the 1950s, and today the Ukiah Valley is home to a number of productive agricultural activities, including organically produced crops and notable vineyards. The Valley’s rich bottom-land, resourced by the Russian River, consists of prime, fertile soils and benchlands highly productive for grapes. Presently, agricultural land within the region is mostly comprised of vineyards and pear orchards but also includes row crops and pasturelands.

Agricultural production has been an important part of the regional economy for generations and will continue to be a foundational component for decades to come. In addition to the economic benefits, agricultural lands provide a pastoral quality that helps define the character of the Ukiah Valley. If undertaken appropriately by addressing issues related to health and, potential nusiances (e.g., noise, odor, ashetics), urban agriculture can improve access to healthy food, promote community development, and create jobs.1 While agricultural resources are addressed and protected by numerous State laws, this Agriculture Element is included here to implement new approaches to local agriculture and strengthen existing City policies regarding preservation and enhancement of regional working lands.

Goals and Policies
To preserve and strengthen agricultural uses in and around Ukiah that influence the regional economy.

AG-1.1 Reduce Agricultural/Urban Conflict
The City shall reduce conflict between incompatible uses and agriculture within and adjacent to the City.

AG-1.2 Preserve Agricultural Lands
With the exception of presently proposed or approved subdivisions, the City shall discourage urban development on unincorporated land within its Sphere of Influence until annexed by the City. The City shall support County land use regulations that protect the viability of local agriculture in the Ukiah Valley.

AG-1.3 Plan Together
The City shall identify and involve stakeholders, as well as advisors with knowledge and expertise, to create and implement a comprehensive planning framework that preserves and strengthens agricultural uses in and around Ukiah that inform and influence the regional economy. 1 Golden, S.

AG-3.1 Establish Infrastructure to Grow the Agricultural Economy The City shall support existing agriculture operators by encouraging a diverse, vibrant, and innovative agriculture economy that creates new opportunities and products from regional producers for local consumption and export. In conjunction with stakeholders, the City shall encourage the creation of agricultural business incubators, shared kitchens, and workforce development programs that create locations to strengthen agricultural operators within the region.

AG-3.2 Agritourism
The City shall support expansion of the agricultural tourism industry by assessing utilization use of tourism facilities (e.g., hospitality, restaurants, etc.), as well as supporting efforts to plan and integrate the Great Redwood Trail into the agricultural economy.
