Deliverables for Task 2: Data Collection List
TASK 3: SUPPLY ANALYSIS
TASK 3.1 | SUMMARIZE HISTORICAL SUPPLY DATA AND WATER RIGHTS
BC will summarize historical supply data from the previous 5-years by supply source and rights to the supply source. It is assumed that BC will build upon data listed in the City’s 2020 Urban Water Management Plan (UWMP) and that production (by source) will be provided in a usable format. Sources will include imported water, groundwater (Six Basins and Chino Basin), purchased water (SAWCo and WECWC), and recycled water. The following information will be summarized in a table and graph and documented in the Master Plan Update.
TASK 3.2 | SUMMARIZE WATER QUALITY IMPACTS AND TREATMENT NEEDS
BC will summarize the water quality impacts by supply source, which will be based on information provided in the City’s 2010 Water Master Plan, 2020 UWMP, and data provided by City staff in a useable format. A summary table will be prepared (similar to Table 5.3 in the 2010 Master Plan). If a supply source is impacted by a water quality impact, a planning level assessment will be performed to identify if proposed treatment needs, blending opportunities, or replacement of the well based on age and performance to identify the best next step to maximize the use of the supply.
As part of this effort, BC will identify current and future potable water quality regulations that are impacting or may impact the future water system. It is assumed that City staff will provide input on potential issues that the City has faced relating due to water quality, or other similar concerns.
TASK 3.3 | DEVELOP PROJECTED SUPPLY NEEDS THROUGH BUILDOUT

If data is available (and provided by the City), demands will be summarized by pressure zone. The historical summary will be include: Unaccounted-for-Water - BC will review historical consumption data to establish the unaccounted- for-water factor consistent with the AWWA guidelines. Seasonal Peaking Factors - Historical billing data will be used to develop system-wide seasonal peaking factors for minimum day demands (minDD), maximum month demands (MMD), peak hour demand (PHD), and maximum day demands (MDD). Data will be summarized in a table and graphic format and documented within the Master Plan Update.
TASK 4.2 | UPDATE LAND USE PROJECTIONS
BC will use the City’s 2020 UWMP, GIS, general plan, and current zoning map as well as other pertinent planning documents and discussions with the City’s development staff to describe the current and proposed land uses within the City’s service area. The acreage for each land use
16 classification will be summarized for use in the water demand projections. A GIS map will be prepared for discussion purposes. A 2-hour workshop with the City’s planning staff will be performed to identify proposed developments, timing of developments, and impacts related to Regional and Housing Needs Assessment (RHNA). The following assumptions will be documented and utilized as a baseline for the demand projections through buildout (or by 2045).
BC will also update the population projections presented in the 2020 UWMP by using the U.S.
Census Bureau population projections by census tract and/or projected rate-of-growth as estimated by other available data within the San Bernardino County region. Populations will be projected in 5-year increments through buildout (or by 2045).
TASK 4.3 | EVALUATE CONSERVATION PROGRAMS AND OPPORTUNITIES
BC will summarize existing conservation programs and needs (or benchmarks) based on the supply reliability analysis performed as well as considerations regarding the potential changes to indoor water use based on upcoming legislation. The City’s 2020 UWMP will be used to document the City’s existing and future conservation program initiatives.

BC will develop a table that summarizes existing and future recycled water regulatory framework that will be used to assess existing and future recycled water opportunities. The City’s 2008 Recycled Water Master Plan as well as the latest planning reports and studies will be used to assess the best use of the City’s recycled water. For budgeting purposes, up to three (3) alternatives will be considered. This includes expanding the recycled water system, opportunities to maximize groundwater recharge, or a hybrid approach. The results and recommendations will be documented in the Master Plan Update and provided to the City under Task 8.
TASK 4.5 | SUMMARIZE PROJECTED DEMANDS AND OFFSETS
Utilizing the City’s latest billing data and land use changes identified under Task 4.2, a land use based demand projection will be developed in 5-year increments through buildout (or 2045). BC will build upon the information listed in the City’s 2020 UWMP and include demand offsets (conservation and recycled water opportunities). It is assumed that the conservation offsets will be based on existing reports, planning studies, and assumptions used IEUA’s Land Use Based Demand Model (climate change impacts and passive conservation). The proposed recycled water offsets will be based on the evaluation performed under Task 4.4. BC has proposed an alternative approach to evaluate conservation offsets or scenarios, which is included under the optional tasks listed in Task 9. For the land use based approach, BC will update the unit demand factors that
17 were developed as part of the 2020 UWMP. The factors will be based on the City’s latest consumption patterns by land use type and will be applied to future land use identified under Task 4.2 and approved developer studies.
TASK 4.6 | DRAFT EXISTING AND FUTURE DEMAND REPORT SECTIONS
BC will build upon the 2010 Water Master Plan Report and consolidate information and analysis performed under Task 4.1 through 4.5 to draft the existing and future demand analysis report sections. The deliverable will be provided under Task 8.
Deliverables for Task 4: Summary Tables of Existing & Projected Demand, Conservation and Demand Offset Impacts (Existing and Future), Regulatory Framework, and Recycled Water Opportunities (electronic copy for discussion with City)
TASK 5: WATER SYSTEM MODEL
TASK 5.1 | UPDATE HYDRAULIC MODEL AND WORKSHOP
GIS and Model Update
As part of this effort, BC will update the City’s GIS using ArcGIS Pro and convert the City’s existing hydraulic model from InfoWater to InfoWater Pro. BC will perform a data check to determine if there are any data discrepancies or inconsistencies between the GIS and model. It is assumed that updates will include new infrastructure installed after the development of the 2010 Water Master Plan. It is assumed that the City will provide the latest model and coordinate with BC staff to identify any updates or system changes made to the model since the last update and will include pipeline replacements, new or planned infrastructure, and all pipelines 4-inches in diameter and larger. The proposed changes will be discussed in during a virtual 2-hour Modeling Update Workshop before incorporating the edits into the hydraulic model. For budgeting purposes, up to 32 hours has been included to update the GIS and model to reflect the City’s latest system. If additional time is required after an initial review of the GIS and model is performed, BC will coordinate with the City and discuss before proceeding. BC also has the capability to set up the model to use InfoWater’s GIS Gateway, which allows for updating model piping directly from GIS. This option can be discussed with City staff. For data on storage facilities, pump stations, and PRVs, any available information provided by the City will be compared to the previous model to confirm that they are being accurately represented. If information is lacking, BC will work with City staff to verify facility information.
Water Demand Allocation
Existing demands will be allocated within the hydraulic model to obtain a spatial distribution of the demands, which will be based on a review of parcel, billing, and water use data. Demand sets for potable water offsets due to the use of recycled water, water loss, and conservation will be incorporated for both the existing and buildout (or 2045) scenarios.
TASK 5.2 | DRAFT AND FINAL CALIBRATION PLAN AND FIELD TESTING
18 A draft and final calibration plan will be developed, which will describe field work to be done to collect data for model calibration. BC typically implements a two-pronged approach for model calibration: operational calibration and field calibration. The plan will describe field testing locations, data to be collected during testing, and the help required from City staff. BC will assist in the field testing, owns field testing equipment, and has developed forms in a data collection application for field testing. The draft calibration plan will be discussed with City staff to confirm locations. Once locations are confirmed, a 2-day field visit will be scheduled with City staff to perform necessary testing. It is assumed that the City staff will assist in the field testing and that up to 16 fire flow tests can be performed over the 2-day period.
TASK 5.3 | MODEL CALIBRATION AND WORKSHOP
Diurnal Patterns
Diurnal patterns for the City’s entire water system will be developed to represent the hourly demand fluctuations on the selected calibration day as well diurnal curves for individual pressure zones (if data is available).
Operational Calibration
Operational calibration includes comparing model tank, pump, and valve operations with SCADA data. Operational calibration confirms that the model operates correctly for day-to-day (extended period simulation) operations. Calibration will include adjusting pump, tank, and valve settings and controls until model results match flows and pressures from SCADA data. Input from discussions with the City’s engineering and operations staff will be important in this step.
Field Calibration
The field calibration involves performing hydrant flow tests throughout the water system and comparing flow and pressure field results to model results. Hydrant tests are used when calibrating model C factors. In addition, hydrant tests are very effective at identifying issues including unknown closed valves, open valves at pressure zone boundaries, and wrong piping in the GIS. The calibrated model will be used as the foundation for the evaluation of existing and future conditions
Results from the Operational and Field Calibration will be summarized and presented to City staff during a virtual Operations Workshop. The final results will be compiled and included in the Draft and Final Modeling Technical Memorandum under Task 5.5 and included as an appendix in the Master Plan Report.
TASK 5.4 | DEVELOP EXISTING AND BUILDOUT SCENARIOS IN MODEL
The calibrated model will be used as a baseline when setting up both the existing and buildout scenarios (or 2045) in the hydraulic model. The demand projections developed under Task 4 will be used when developing the buildout scenario. The system analysis will be performed under Task 6, which will identify the need for existing and future facilities. These facilities will be added into the model under Task 6.
19 TASK 5.5 | DRAFT AND FINAL MODELING TECHNICAL MEMORANDUM
A Draft and Final Modeling TM will be developed to summarize the work completed as part of Task 5.1 through 5.4. the TM will include a summary of the updates made in the hydraulic model, demand sets developed, calibration activities, and tables/graphs/figures that document the accuracy of the model calibration results.
TASK 5.6 | HYDRAULIC MODELING SOFTWARE
(TASK REMOVED)
TASK 5.7 | MODEL TRAINING
Upon completion of the model and Master Plan Update, a 2-day training will be scheduled with City staff using InfoWater Pro. It is assumed that the City will provide workstations and licenses for the training. A copy of the final model will be provided for the City’s future use.

TASK 6: SYSTEM IMPROVEMENTS/RECOMMENDATIONS
TASK 6.1 | REVIEW AND UPDATE EVALUATION CRITERIA
The system sizing and evaluation criteria from the City’s 2010 Master Plan will be reviewed and compared with industry standards to assess recommendations on revisions to these criteria.
Changes to the criteria will be summarized in a table and provided to City staff for review prior to performing system analysis.
TASK 6.2 | EXISTING CAPACITY EVALUATION OF WATER SYSTEM
The calibrated hydraulic model developed under Task 5 will be used to perform an existing system evaluation to identify areas that do not meet the minimum pressure, velocity, or fire flow requirement. The model will be used to size improvements to meet the criteria. Prior to performing the fire flow analysis, BC will confirm that hydrants are assigned to the correct pipeline. Deficiencies identified will be discussed with City staff in a progress meeting, which is budgeted under Task 1. The model and GIS figures will be used to demonstrate the results and recommended improvements to mitigate deficiencies. The 2010 Master Plan recommendations will be compared with the recommendations identified as part of Task 6.2. The figures will be included in the Master Plan Update under Task 8.
TASK 6.3 | BUILDOUT CAPACITY EVALUATION OF WATER SYSTEM
20 The calibrated hydraulic model developed under Task 5 will be used to perform a future system evaluation to identify areas that do not meet the minimum pressure, velocity, or fire flow requirement. It is assumed that buildout will occur by 2045, unless otherwise noted by the City.
The model will be used to size improvements to meet the criteria. Deficiencies identified will be discussed with City staff in a progress meeting, which is budgeted under Task 1. The model and GIS figures will be used to demonstrate the results and recommended improvements to mitigate deficiencies. The combined improvements that are related to existing deficiencies and growth will be identified by a percent split when developing the CIP as part of Task 7. The figures will be included in the Master Plan Update under Task 8.
TASK 6.4 | EXISTING AND BUILDOUT PUMP STATION AND STORAGE ANALYSIS
Existing Storage and Pump Station Analysis
Develop an existing storage and pumping mass balance table, which will incorporate any updates to the evaluation criteria and identify the project trigger (changes in land use, demands, criteria, condition, etc.). Opportunities to create reliability and redundancy will be considered when identifying improvement projects to mitigate deficiencies.
Future Storage and Pump Station Analysis
Develop a future storage and pumping mass balance table, which will incorporate any updates to the evaluation criteria and identify the project trigger (changes in land use, growth, criteria, condition, etc.). Opportunities to create reliability and redundancy will be considered when identifying improvement projects to mitigate deficiencies.
TASK 6.5 | CONDITION ASSESSMENT DATA REVIEW AND FIELD VISIT
This task will include a review of existing condition assessment and operations/maintenance reports to identify upcoming replacement projects that should be considered within the capital improvement plan. It is assumed that the rehabilitation and replacement of the facilities is based on the latest industry standards and input from City staff. This does include a 2-day cursory field visit and the development of field notes to summarize conversations with City staff and identify issues through a visual inspection. BC will coordinate with the City staff to identify projects that will be included in the CIP and summarize subsequent condition assessments that may be required to maintain system reliability. The field notes will be included in an appendix within the Master Plan Update under Task 8.
If the City would like to include a pipeline replacement strategy, a scope of work and fee estimate will be provided. BC has the tools and techniques to tailor the strategy and the level of detail can vary based on available data or needs.
TASK 6.6 | LIST OF PROPOSED IMPROVEMENTS PROJECTS AND FIGURE
BC will summarize the City’s existing and future system deficiencies and condition related improvements in a table format and will include both water and recycled water, which will be discussed with City staff prior to developing the prioritized CIP. The improvements will include
21 pipeline replacements due to capacity deficiencies, pump station and storage improvements (based on capacity and condition), well rehab or replacement (based on input from City staff and the analysis performed under Task 3), as well as other relevant projects that have been included in the City’s existing CIP. Pipelines or other facilities within the distribution system that have has known operational issues will be discussed and included within the list as needed. A consolidated figure that identifies the capacity deficiencies (pipelines/pump stations/storage tanks/wells) will be developed for discussion purposes with City staff.
TASK 6.7 | DRAFT EXISTING AND SYSTEM ANALYSIS SECTIONS
BC will build upon the 2010 Water Master Plan Report and consolidate information and analysis performed under Task 6.1 through 6.6 to draft the existing and future system analysis report sections. The deliverable will be provided under Task 8.

TASK 7: SYSTEM MAINTENANCE/REPLACEMENT PROGRAM
TASK 7.1 | UPDATE COST ASSUMPTIONS AND UNIT COSTS
BC will develop planning-level (Class 5 per AACE International) cost estimating assumptions for the water system facilities within the distribution system. These unit costs will reflect the most current market conditions in the region (Los Angeles County and City projects). BC will coordinate with City staff on current bid results that may be used to adjust unit costs. BC will estimate cost escalation from sources such as historical cost trends from the ENR Index Los Angeles Area. In addition, a table with typical contingency and mark-up cost factors will be prepared. The cost development and amortization assumptions will be discussed and finalized with the City staff prior to the development of the CIP.
TASK 7.2 | DRAFT AND FINAL PRIORITIZED CIP TABLE
BC will develop Class 5 planning-level cost estimates for each of the recommended CIP identified under Task 6.6. The cost estimates will be summarized in tabular format by project ID, facility type, and priority. A GIS map will be prepared to depict the locations of the proposed system improvements with matching project IDs.
A Draft and Final CIP table will group projects into the near-term and long-term planning horizons. The near-term and long-term will be selected through discussions with City staff.
Higher priority projects will be included within the near-term and will be distributed on an annual or yearly basis. Long-term projects will be grouped since the timing is unknown.
TASK 7.3 | DRAFT CIP CHAPTER (WATER AND RECYCLED WATER)
22 BC will build upon the 2010 Water Master Plan Report and consolidate information developed as part of Task 7.1 and Task 6.2 to draft the CIP report chapter. The deliverable will be provided under Task 8 and will include the graphs, tables, and figures developed as part of Task 6 and Task 7.

Chapter 5 – Potable Water System Analysis, Chapter 6 – Recycled Water Evaluation, and Draft CIP Table. The report will build upon the City’s 2010 Master Plan and will provide clear rationale for the system analysis tasks that will be used to develop the prioritized CIP. An electronic copy and three (3) hard copies will be submitted to City staff for review and comment.
It is assumed that the City will provide comments within two weeks.
Deliverables for Task 8.2: 85% Master Plan (electronic copy and 3 hard copies)
TASK 8.3 | DRAFT MASTER PLAN
BC will incorporate the comments received from City staff on Task 8.1 and 8.2 and compile the Draft Master Plan Report. It is assumed that the Draft Master Plan will include the following:
Draft Executive Summary, revisions to Chapter 1 though Chapter 6, Chapter 7 – Capital Improvement Plan, .and supporting appendices. An electronic copy and three (3) hard copies will be submitted to City staff for review and comment. It is assumed that the City will provide comments within two weeks.
23 Deliverables for Task 8.3: Draft Master Plan (electronic copy and 3 hard copies)
TASK 8.4 | FINAL MASTER PLAN
BC will incorporate the comments received from City staff on Task 8.3. It is assumed that the Final Master Plan will incorporate all final comments received from City staff on the Executive Summary, Chapter 1 through Chapter 7, and supporting appendices. An electronic copy and ten (10) hard copies will be submitted to City staff.
Deliverables for Task 8.4: Final Master Plan (electronic copy and 10 hard copies)
TASK 9: OPTIONAL TASKS
TASK 9.1 | DSS DEMAND PROJECTION TOOL
Our supplemental approach to the City’s demand projections includes the use of a dynamic forecasting tool called the “Least Cost Planning Decision Support System Model” (DSS Model) to help navigate the uncertainties of water demand forecasting and provide confidence in the basis of our planning. The tool follows the methodologies specified in the AWWA Manual of Water Supply Practices M52, which is considered the industry standard for conservation and demand forecasting. BC is a licensed user of the tool. We will collaborate with City staff at scheduled progress meetings to discuss demand forecasting. During these meetings, a review of the DSS Model will be performed so that City staff feel comfortable and confident with the selected demand forecast since it is one of the key foundations for comprehensive and integrated master plans. This task will include two (2) meetings with City staff to discuss the following items: quantifying the impact of future planned conservation efforts, quantifying (to the extent possible) the impact of climate change and climate variability, quantify the impact of recycled water, review uncertainty of redevelopment and future population projections provided by the State, select demand scenarios to model, and results. This methodology inputs population data into the DSS Model and compares the results at varying levels of conservation.
The DSS demand tool will provide a range that can be used to assess future supply needs with varying conditions. This will help the City establish conservation targets and identify future supply needs to increase system reliability and resiliency. As growth evolves and development agreements are established over time, the DSS model can be updated, and demands can be refined. If this option is selected, the baseline target will be used to perform the future system analysis under Task 6.
Deliverables for Task 9.1: Table with Demand Projection Results (electronic format)
TASK 9.2 | STORY MAP
Since hard copies can be challenging to use when cross sharing information, BC proposes the use of an ESRI StoryMap. StoryMaps will allow the City to view CIP projects in an interactive format that can be customized to include project details and assist with integrating project priorities with multiple systems. This web application provides critical background information, project phasing, costs, and project specifics such as future user cost allocations. The City’s StoryMap will allow users to zoom into specific project locations within the service area, which will assist City staff in facilitating discussions with council members or stakeholders.
24 Deliverables for Task 9.3: StoryMap data files (electronic)
TASK 9.3 | RECYCLED WATER HYDRAULIC MODEL UPDATE AND ANALYSIS
If required, BC staff will request a copy of the latest recycled water mode from City staff to confirm system sizing for the future recycled water alternatives. BC staff will review the latest model and GIS to confirm the level of effort. For budgeting purposes, 40 hours have been included to update the model to mimic existing condition. If additional time is required based on the review, BC will discuss with City staff prior to proceeding. The remaining effort will include the development of scenarios based on the recycled water evaluation performed.
Deliverables for Task 9.3: Updated Recycled Water Model (electronic file) and System Analysis Figures and Results (electronic format)
TASK 9.4 | AS-NEEDED SERVICES
To support the City staff will follow up tasks and modeling troubleshooting, up to $17,961 has been included as an optional task. Tasks may also include performing supplemental hydraulic modeling analysis for system optimization alternatives, funding support, or supplemental field work.

WHEREAS, the City of Upland (“City”) has a substantial interest in discouraging the illegal purchase of tobacco products by minors, as well as promoting compliance with all federal, state and local laws pertaining to tobacco sales and use; and
WHEREAS, the City is authorized, by virtue of the State Constitution and California Government Code §51030 to regulate massage establishments by imposing reasonable conditions on the operation thereof; and WHEREAS, the City desires to amend its local regulations for smoke shops and massage establishments to promote the health, safety and welfare of the public, alleviate over-saturation of these uses within the City, and allow the uses to operate within the City in a manner and at such locations to maintain compatibility between surrounding land uses; and
WHEREAS, the City’s Municipal Code does not presently contain any individual regulations for smoke shops, other than those for a retail use; and
WHEREAS, on July 27, 2022 at 6:30 p.m. the Planning Commission conducted a duly noticed public hearing for the project, as prescribed by law, and heard and considered both oral and written evidence and adopted Resolution No. 4968 recommending that the City Council adopt an Ordinance amending the Zoning Ordinance Table 17.04-1 (Permitted Land Uses in the Residential Zones), Table
17.05-1 (Permitted Land Uses in the Mixed-Use Zones), Table 17.06-1 (Permitted Land Uses in the Commercial Zones), Table 17-07-1 (Permitted Land Uses in the Industrial Zones), Table 17.08-1 (Permitted Land Uses in the Special Purpose Zones), Chapter 17.29 (Massage Therapy), and Chapter 17.51 (Definitions), and adding Chapter 17.42.5 (Smoke Shops), in order to add a definition and regulations for smoke shops and amend regulations for massage therapy establishments to require a conditional use permit; and

WHEREAS, on September 12, 2022 at 7:00 p.m. the City Council conducted
Ordinance No.
a duly noticed public hearing for the project, as prescribed by law, heard and considered both oral and written evidence, and considered the entire record of information received at the public hearings before the Planning Commission and City Council.
NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF UPLAND DOES ORDAIN AS FOLLOWS:
Section 1. The above recitals are true and correct and are hereby incorporated herein by this reference.
Section 2. Findings. In approving the proposed Municipal Code amendment, the City Council hereby makes the following findings that the Ordinance is consistent with the General Plan as follows:
1. Finding: The proposed amendment is consistent with the General Plan and any applicable community or specific plan as provided by Government Code Section 65860.
Evidence: The proposed Smoke Shop and Massage Therapy
Ordinance does not conflict with any community or specific plan and is consistent with the following General Plan policies and goals:
A. Land Use Policy LU-6.2: Control the location, concentration and operations of land uses that have potential impacts on surrounding development through effective design principles, adequate buffering, and enforcement of regulatory documents.
Fact: The ordinance will be consistent with this policy, as it will address a concern regarding the compatibility of smoke shop and massage establishment uses with surrounding land use uses and allow for the ability to add conditions of approval to ensure such uses will not have a negative impact through their design and operational characteristics.
B. Healthy Community Policy HC-5.3: Consider the concentration of alcohol and/or tobacco retail outlets in land use decisions; consider regulating the permitting of additional alcohol and/or tobacco retail outlets where an undue concentration exists
Fact: The proposed ordinance will be consistent with this policy as it will allow the Planning Commission the ability to consider the concentration of tobacco retail outlets in land use decisions and will add additional criteria for the Commission to use as basis of evaluating undue concentration while considering a conditional use permit.
C. Healthy Community Goal HC-5: A community free of alcohol dependency, tobacco use, and drug abuse by creating an
Ordinance No.
environment that supports healthy choices, provides access to prevention and treatment services, and enforces laws that protect residents and the community.
Fact: The proposed ordinance will be consistent with this goal in the City’s General Plan, by setting responsible and appropriate regulations for smoke shops to ensure both a successful business environment but also allow for additional consideration in appropriate land uses through regulation of smoke shops through a conditional use permit process.
2. Finding: The proposed amendment will not be detrimental to the public interest, health, safety, or welfare of the City.
Evidence: The proposed Zoning Amendment is in the interest of public interest, health, safety, and welfare of the City for several reasons, and will not be detrimental. The City has an interest, as emphasized in the General Plan, in ensuring compatibility between uses, ensuring that land uses are established in such a manner and location where they will not have potential impacts on surrounding development, in discouraging the illegal purchase of tobacco products by minors, and in promoting compliance with all federal, state and local laws.
3. Finding: The proposed amendment is internally consistent with other applicable provisions of the Zoning Ordinance.
Evidence: The proposed amendment does not conflict with any other sections of the Zoning Ordinance.
Section 3. Table 17.04-1 (Permitted Land Uses in the Residential Zones) of Section 17.04.020 (Land Uses of Regulations for Residential Zones) of the Upland Municipal Code is hereby amended to add a line item for smoke shops, add dashes to the RS-20, RS-15, RS-10,, RS-7.5, RS-4, RS-MH, RM-10, RM-20, and RM-30 to indicate smoke shops are a use not allowed, add a reference to “Ch. 17.42.5” for Smoke Shops under Applicable Regulations, change “Smoke Lounge/Tobacco Shop/E-vape/Hookah” to “Smoke Lounge/E-vape/Hookah Lounge”, as shown below, with all other portions of Table 17.04-1 to remain the same:

Ordinance No. ___
the Enforcement Official, in his or her reasonable discretion, is able to make an affirmative determination that there is a sleeping space practically available to such person in a shelter, based on the information known to the Enforcement Official at the time. In determining whether a sleeping space in a shelter is practically available to a person, the Enforcement Official shall consider the specific circumstances of the person and the specific policies and requirements of the shelter, including the following:

6. A shelter shall not be considered to be practically available under this Subsection if it requires a person to participate in religious activities as a condition of receiving a sleeping space.
7. A shelter shall not be considered unavailable under this Subsection if the person is precluded from accessing the shelter solely based on their refusal to comply with the reasonable requirements of the shelter or the person is excluded from the shelter due to past violations of the shelter’s requirements.
H.

Section 3. TUT Not Deemed a Special Tax. The adoption of this Resolution shall not be construed, and it is not the City Council’s intent, to convert the proposed TUT into a “special tax”, as that term is defined Article XIIIC §1(d) of the California Constitution, or California Government Code sections 53721 and 53724, or any combination thereof. Although this Resolution expresses the intent of the current City Council to prioritize spending future TUT revenues for certain purposes, the TUT shall remain a “general tax” as that term is defined in Article XIIIC §1(a) of the California Constitution and as set forth in the proposed TUT ordinance. In the event this Resolution is determined to convert the proposed TUT into a special tax, it shall be deemed void for all purposes.
Section 4. Certification. The City Clerk shall certify to the passage and adoption of this Resolution and enter it into the book of original resolutions.
PASSED, APPROVED AND ADOPTED this 12th day of September, 2022.
