Task 8. Dry Utility Systems
Task 8.01. Kickoff Meeting (Optional Task)
A kickoff meeting will be held for the dry utilities (at the same time as one of the Monthly Progress Meetings) with the Client Team to establish task goals.
Task 8.02. Coordination with Utility Companies (Optional Task) We will contact and coordinate with utility providers including Island Energy (electric and gas), Xfinity, AT&T (cable/fiber) to obtain existing mapping, plans, schematics, and reports which detail the extents of dry utilities. A data log will be prepared to document information received. It is assumed that up to two additional utility contacts may be needed after the initial request. West Yost will not perform any technical evaluations, mapping, or engineering on dry utility systems.
Task 8.02 Deliverables
• Data request log, library of information
Task 8.03. Dry Utilities First Draft MIIA Report Chapter (Optional Task) We will summarize the results of Task 8 in the First Draft Chapter 7. Any information available on existing or build-out capacity will be summarized in the TM based on information received from utility companies.
Task 8.03 Deliverables
• First draft dry utilities MIIA report chapter
Task 9. MIIA Technical Report and Presentations
Task 9.06. Public Meeting and Presentations (In-Person) (Optional Task) We will attend/conduct up to two public meetings to communicate information and answer Client Team questions related to the Third Draft Technical Report. One meeting is expected to be a public workshop format. The other meeting is expected to be a Council/Board meeting. The consultant team to attend presentations will include West Yost Project Manager; West Yost Deputy Project Manager; Water system representative (West Yost); Road representative (NCE); and Geotechnical representative ( Delve). A dry run will be presented to the Client Team for input and revision.
The presentations could be at the City Council/VFWD Board meetings or other venues. After the presentations, we will meet with City and VFWD staff to decide if additional work is needed to address comments and questions from the meetings. We have assumed no additional technical/engineering work will be needed to address the questions and comments beyond the scope of services described above.
Task 10. Contingency
Contingency for additional services requested by City. This task budget was calculated based on bringing the Optional Task total fee to the amount in the original contract ($555,927).

THE CITY OF VALLEJO AND BLUE ROCK SPRINGS, LLC TO EXTEND THE TIME IN
WHICH TO NEGOTIATE THE PARTICIPATION AND PERFORMANCE AGREEEMENTS
AND AUTHORIZING THE CITY MANAGER TO EXECUTE THE SAME
RECOMMENDATION
Adopt a resolution approving the Fourth Amendment to the Purchase and Sale Agreement and Joint Escrow Instructions by and between the City of Vallejo and Blue Rock Springs, LLC to extend the time in which to negotiate Participation and Performance Agreements and authorizing the City Manager to execute same.
REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATION
The Third Amendment to the PSA for the revitalization of the Blue Rock Springs Golf Course Housing Project is scheduled to expire on September 29, 2023. This Fourth Amendment provides the parties with an additional 180 days in which to negotiate and execute the Participation Agreement and Performance Agreement, respectively.
BACKGROUND AND DISCUSSION
Purchase and Sale Agreement
On November 15, 2022, the City Council approved the Purchase and Sale Agreement and Joint Escrow Instructions (PSA) for 655 Columbus Parkway to Blue Rock Springs, LLC, which proposes to develop housing and commercial uses on the property. Escrow closed on or about December 28, 2022. Subsections 6(d)(i) and 6(f)(i) of the PSA provide that the parties may extend the time period in which to negotiate and execute a Participation Agreement and Performance Agreement, respectively, subject to written agreement executed by both parties. This Fourth Amendment extends the deadline from September 29, 2023 to Wednesday, March 27, 2024.
FISCAL IMPACT
Amending the PSA does not pose any fiscal impacts to the General Fund.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
Amending the PSA is exempt from (CEQA) because it is not a project which has a potential for resulting in either a direct physical change in the environment, or a reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment, pursuant to CEQA Guideline section 15378. A full environmental review will be undertaken, at the expense of the developer, with review of a related development proposal.

ACTION ITEM 9.A.
DATE: September 26, 2023
TO: Mayor and Members of the City Council
FROM: Michael Malone, City Manager
Terrance Davis, Assistant City Manager
SUBJECT: ADOPT A RESOLUTION AMENDING THE FISCAL YEAR 2023-24 BUDGET TO
REALLOCATE EXPENDITURES FROM THE AMERICAN RESCUE PLAN ACT (ARPA) CORONAVIRUS STATE AND LOCAL FISCAL RECOVERY FUNDS (STEP 2)
RECOMMENDATION
Amend FY 2023-24 ARPA budget to account for the amount of $862,000 to be reallocated from the first tranche of funds.
REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATION
This proposed action is the second step of the City Charter required two-step budget amendment process following the notice of intent to amend the Fiscal Year 2023-24 budget on September 12, 2023.
BACKGROUND AND DISCUSSION
Background
On March 11, 2021, President Biden signed the American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) into law, delivering $1.9 trillion of aid towards addressing the COVID pandemic and corresponding economic crisis. This legislative package included $350 billion in federal fiscal relief to local governments. This provision of the American Rescue Plan is referred to as the Coronavirus State and Local Fiscal Recovery Funds (SLFRF). It includes $65.1 billion of direct and flexible aid to American cities, towns, and villages. The City of Vallejo was a recipient of these funds in the amount of $25,727,736.
The Local Fiscal Recovery Funds are designed to bolster agencies' responses to the COVID-19 pandemic and its economic impacts by supporting the immediate pandemic response, bringing back jobs, and laying the groundwork for a strong and equitable recovery. These funds must be obligated by December 31, 2024, and expended by December 31, 2026. The relief has the following objectives:
• Support urgent COVID-19 response efforts to continue to decrease the spread of the virus and bring the pandemic under control
• Replace lost public sector revenue to strengthen support for vital public services and help retain jobs • Support immediate economic stabilization for households and businesses • Address systemic public health and economic challenges that have contributed to the unequal impact of the pandemic
The Treasury Department released an Interim Final on May 17, 2021, and allowed for comments until July 16, 2021. The Department of Treasury announced that the Final Rule took effect on April 1, 2022.
The allowable uses under the Final Rule include the following:
Date: September 26, 2023
Subject: ADOPT A RESOLUTION AMENDING THE FISCAL YEAR 2023-24 BUDGET TO
REALLOCATE EXPENDITURES FROM THE AMERICAN RESCUE PLAN ACT (ARPA) CORONAVIRUS STATE AND LOCAL FISCAL RECOVERY FUNDS (STEP 2)
• Support public health expenditures, by, for example, funding COVID-19 mitigation efforts, medical expenses, behavioral healthcare, and specific public health and safety staff • Address negative economic impacts caused by the public health emergency, including economic harms to workers, households, small businesses, impacted industries, and the public sector • Replace lost public sector revenue, using this funding to provide government services to the extent of the reduction in revenue experienced due to the pandemic • Provide premium pay for essential workers, offering additional support to those who have and will bear the most significant health risks because of their service in critical infrastructure sectors • Invest in water, sewer, and broadband infrastructure, making necessary investments to improve access to clean drinking water, support vital wastewater and stormwater infrastructure, and to expand access to broadband internet
Ineligible uses include the following:
• Contribution towards federal matching requirements, pension liability, financial reserves, legal settlements, and debt service
• Infrastructure not directly addressed in the Rescue Plan • Changes that reduce net tax revenue
On August 10, 2023, the Secretary of the Treasury issued an interim final rule to implement amendments created by the Consolidated Appropriations Act of 2023. This Interim Rule provided guidance and parameters for new eligible categories. The categories are as follows:
• Expenditures that provide emergency relief from natural disasters • Funding transportation infrastructure eligible projects and matching funds. • Spending on any program, project, or service that would also be eligible under HUD’s Community Development Block Grant program.
The Interim Final Rule was recently published in the Federal Register, kicking off a 60-day comment period.
The timeline for the Final Rule is uncertain. The volume and complexity of the comments will determine how long it will take to proceed to a Final Rule. The earlier existing categories under the 2022 Final Rule remain unchanged.
Community Feedback
In April 2021, staff created a webpage where community members could learn more about the Rescue Plan and submit ideas - https://www.myvallejo.com/american-rescue-plan-act. The page has continued to be updated as more information and resources have become available. As of early September, over 1,000 visitors and more than 500 people have engaged with the web page. Ideas were collected from the launch of the webpage to August 15 and then reviewed and categorized by staff. The top ten categories of ideas in order of interest include:
1. Homelessness and Mental Health
2. Streets Safety
3. City Infrastructure

Subject: ADOPT A RESOLUTION AMENDING THE FISCAL YEAR 2023-24 BUDGET TO

4. Road/Street Maintenance
5. Schools/Education
6. Food Insecurity
7. Housing
8. Public Safety
9. Small Business
10. Code Enforcement
Discussion
After evaluating the progress of the Council-approved projects that received SLFRF funding allocations in the first tranche, it has been determined that there will be a balance remaining of $862,000. Staff recommends the following allocation criteria and projects based on community needs and government operations.
Allocation Criteria
Allocate to one-time projects
Allocating funding towards one-time projects limits the City's ongoing liabilities and increases the City's fiscal health. Projects that require ongoing support from the General Fund are not recommended. Instead, staff suggests allocating funds to one-time projects to promote fiscal security.
Allocate the funds consistent with the City Council and community member input Staff recommends supporting projects and programs that are consistent with City Council desires and feedback from community members. Specifically, staff suggests using the City Council's vision for a safe, prosperous, and vibrant City as the basis of the allocation categories.
Allocate the funds for projects that will result in a return on investment and community impact
Recommendations
The recommendation before City Council on September 12, 2023 was to provide funding for the following high-priority areas:
The Vallejo Naval &
Historical Museum
$410,000 Funding would allow for barrier removal and
Americans with Disability Act (ADA) improvements
to the museum. These improvements would
increase public access, upgrade lighting, and
enhance the audio/visual systems used for
community programs.
Broadway Project $200,000 This allocation would address a funding shortfall in the Broadway low-income housing project.
Main Street $100,000 Provide funding for Vallejo First Corporation with the purpose of revitalizing the City’s downtown core
while promoting economic activity.
Empress Theatre $100,000 This project would fund an upgrade to the historic theatre’s audio/visual systems. The upgrade will
allow for the support of a broader variety of cultural, educational, and entertainment performances.
Humane Society $52,000 Expenditures here will fund additional cost increases associated with ongoing animal care
Date: September 26, 2023
Subject: ADOPT A RESOLUTION AMENDING THE FISCAL YEAR 2023-24 BUDGET TO
REALLOCATE EXPENDITURES FROM THE AMERICAN RESCUE PLAN ACT (ARPA) CORONAVIRUS STATE AND LOCAL FISCAL RECOVERY FUNDS (STEP 2)
services while providing equity adjustments to
support staffing and contract service costs.
Staff suggested alternative options are as follows:
Vallejo Marina Dredging $500,000 The project will improve access by funding small interim emergency dredging. The dredging will address increased siltation at the entrance of the Marina and the fuel island.
Skate park $41,000 The purpose of this allocation is to close the funding gap for the Modernize Vallejo Skatepark project from the Cycle 8 Participatory Budgeting process. The result of the funding will rejuvenate the skate facility at Wardlaw Park with state- of-the-art obstacles.
Council's Direction
After a presentation to Vallejo's City Council on September 12, 2023, the Council's direction is to pursue the following projects with the reallocated first tranche funds (also detailed on page 2 of Exhibit A attached):
The Vallejo Naval &
Historical Museum
$410,000 Funding would allow for barrier removal and
Americans with Disability Act (ADA) improvements
to the museum. These improvements would
increase public access, upgrade lighting, and
enhance the audio/visual systems used for
community programs.
Broadway Project $200,000 This allocation would address a funding shortfall in the Broadway low-income housing project.
Main Street $40,000 Provide funding for Vallejo First Corporation with the purpose of revitalizing the City’s downtown core
while promoting economic activity.
Empress Theatre $100,000 This project would fund an upgrade to the historic theatre’s audio/visual systems. The upgrade will
allow for the support of a broader variety of cultural, educational, and entertainment performances.
Humane Society $52,000 Expenditures here will fund additional cost increases associated with ongoing animal care
services while providing equity adjustments to
support staffing and contract service costs.
Grants for Small
Businesses
$60,000 Funds designated for this project will support
Vallejo's small businesses by providing grants for
safety purposes.

SUBJECT: ADOPT CITY COUNCIL 2023 AND MULTIYEAR GOALS AND PRIORITIES
RECOMMENDATION
Adopt a resolution establishing the Vallejo City Council’s Fiscal Year 2023-2024 and Multiyear Community Goals and Priorities.
REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATION
On April 14, 2023, the City Council and the City’s senior leadership team participated in a facilitated Goal Setting workshop. At the workshop, Council discussed their broad-based goals for the community and reviewed their previously established multi-year goals. On September 19, 2023 Council reviewed the multiyear goals and priorities and provided additional clarification to staff.
BACKGROUND AND DISCUSSION
On April 14, 2023, the City Council gathered at Cal Maritime for an all-day goal-setting workshop with members of the City’s leadership team as well as public participants. The workshop was facilitated by consultants from Baker Tilly, and provided an opportunity for Councilmembers to review governance roles, discuss Council protocols, participate in team-building exercises, and to outline goals and priorities for Fiscal Year 2023-24, as well as multi-year goals. The Goal Setting Draft document created by Baker Tilly that outlines the day is attached.
In April 2022 City Council meet for Goal Setting and on July 19, 2022 adopted a resolution establishing the Fiscal Year 2022-23 Goal as: Economic Development and four Multiyear goals: Economic Development Strategy, Youth Programming, Affordable Housing Plan and Police Reform. These Multiyear goals were revisited by Council and updated during FY23-24 goal setting. During the April 2023 goal setting Council updated the language for the multiyear goals and added a fifth goal category for Fiscal Year 2023-24 to read:
1. Public Safety
2. Efficient, Effective and Responsive Government
3. Implement Economic Development Strategy
4. Housing/Unhoused
5. Youth Development
During the goal setting process Councilmembers had the opportunity to add specific interests or projects within these goal categories. Once topics were noted, Councilmembers then had the opportunity to vote for their two priority interests/projects.
At a Special Council Meeting on September 19, 2023 staff presented Council with a Council Goals-At-A- Glance document that outlined Council’s: Priority Area, Goal/Outcome, Strategy/What we want to achieve
Date: September 26, 2023
Subject: ADOPT CITY COUNCIL 2023 AND MULTIYEAR GOALS AND PRIORITIES

During the meeting Council had the opportunity to provide additional information and clarification, while fine tuning their FY23-24 Council Goals. The 23-24 at-a-glance document (attached) was updated to incorporate Council’s guidance and reflect the recommendations made on September 19th. Council’s priority areas, goals/outcomes, and council directions are listed in the attachment entitled Goals at-a-Glance FY 23-24.
FISCAL IMPACT
There is no fiscal impact associated with this action.

ACTION ITEM 9.C.
DATE: September 26, 2023
TO: Mayor and Members of the City Council
FROM: Veronica A. F. Nebb, City Attorney
Laura Zagaroli, Assistant City Attorney
SUBJECT: INTRODUCTION OF AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF VALLEJO REPEALING SECTIONS 4.04.065, 5.04.066, 5.04.070 RELATING TO PEDDLERS AND 8.40.100 RELATING TO PLACING OBJECTS ON STREETS—STOPS BY VENDORS SELLING MERCHANDISE” OF THE VALLEJO MUNICIPAL CODE AND ADDING CHAPTER 5.02 “SIDEWALK/RIGHT-OF-WAY VENDING”
RECOMMENDATION
Introduce an Ordinance of the City Council of the City of Vallejo Repealing Sections 4.04.065, 5.04.066,
5.04.070 Relating to Peddlers and 8.40.100 Relating to Placing Objects on Streets—Stops by Vendors Selling Merchandise" of the Vallejo Municipal Code and Adding Chapter 5.02 "Sidewalk/Right-of-Way Vending”
REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATION
The proposed ordinance brings the City’s Vendor Regulations into compliance with SB 946.
BACKGROUND AND DISCUSSION
BACKGROUND:
In 2018, the California legislature passed, and the Governor signed, Senate Bill 946, also known as the Safe Sidewalk Vending Act (“Act”). Effective January 1, 2019, the Act adds sections 51036 through 51039 to the California Government Code to regulate sidewalk vendors throughout the State, including in charter cities such as the City of Vallejo. The purpose of the Act is to promote and support low-income and immigrant communities throughout the State. To that end, the legislature made the following findings and declarations in the Act:
• Sidewalk vending provides important entrepreneurship and economic development opportunities to low-income and immigrant communities.
• Sidewalk vending increases access to desired goods, such as culturally significant food and merchandise.
• Sidewalk vending contributes to a safe and dynamic public space. • The safety and welfare of the general public is promoted by encouraging local authorities to support and properly regulate sidewalk vending.
• The safety and welfare of the general public is promoted by prohibiting criminal penalties for violations of sidewalk vending ordinances and regulations.
The Act defines “sidewalk vendors” as “persons who sell food or merchandise from a pushcart, stand, display, pedal-driven cart, wagon, showcase, rack, or other non-motorized conveyance, or from one’s person, upon a public sidewalk or other pedestrian path.” A sidewalk vendor may be roaming or stationary.
DISCUSSION:
As noted above, the legislature desired to promote entrepreneurship and limit local control over such
Date: September 26, 2023
Subject: INTRODUCTION OF AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF VALLEJO REPEALING SECTIONS 4.04.065, 5.04.066, 5.04.070 RELATING TO PEDDLERS AND 8.40.100 RELATING TO PLACING OBJECTS ON STREETS—STOPS BY VENDORS SELLING MERCHANDISE” OF THE VALLEJO MUNICIPAL CODE AND ADDING CHAPTER 5.02 “SIDEWALK/RIGHT-OF-WAY VENDING”
activities. As a result, under the Act, local jurisdictions may not do the following:
1. Require a sidewalk vendor to operate within specific parts of the public right-of-way, except when directly related to “objective health, safety, or welfare concerns.”
2. Prohibit a sidewalk vendor from selling food or merchandise in a park owned or operated by the local authority.
3. Restrict sidewalk vendors to operate only in a designated neighborhood or area, except when the restriction is directly related to objective health, safety, or welfare concerns. However, stationary sidewalk vendors (as opposed to roaming sidewalk vendors) may be prohibited in areas zoned exclusively residential.
4. Restrict the overall number of sidewalk vendors permitted to operate within the local authority’s jurisdiction, unless the restriction is directly related to objective health, safety, or welfare concerns.
5. Require a sidewalk vendor to first obtain the consent or approval of any non-governmental entity or individual (private business or property owners) before he or she can sell food or merchandise.
Although sidewalk vendors may not be prohibited by way of local ordinances, a certain level of control may still be exercised. Local jurisdictions may adopt objective requirements that directly relate to objective health, safety, or welfare concerns. These include, for example:
1. Limitations on the hours of operation (provided they are not unduly restrictive);
2. Requirements to maintain sanitary conditions;
3. Requirements to ensure compliance with the federal Americans with Disabilities Act;
4. Requiring the sidewalk vendor to obtain a permit for sidewalk vending and a valid business license;
5. Requiring the sidewalk vendor to possess a valid California Department of Tax and Fee Administration (CDTFA) seller’s permit;
6. Prohibiting stationary sidewalk vendors, but not roaming sidewalk vendors, in areas zoned exclusively residential;
7. Prohibiting stationary sidewalk vendors, but not roaming sidewalk vendors, from vending in a City park if an operator in the park has signed an agreement for concessions that exclusively permits the sale of food or merchandise by the concessionaire;
8. Prohibiting sidewalk vendors in areas located within the immediate vicinity of a permitted certified farmers’ market or a permitted swap meet during the limited operating hours of that certified farmers’ market or swap meet. The Act defines “certified farmers’ market” in accordance with the Food and Agricultural Code and “swap meet” in accordance with the Business and Professions Code;
9. In city parks, prohibiting sidewalk vending activity to ensure the public’s use and enjoyment of natural resources and recreational opportunities and necessary to prevent an undue concentration of commercial activity that unreasonably interferes with the scenic and natural character of the park;
10. Prohibiting sidewalk vendors within the immediate vicinity of an area designated for a temporary special permit for the duration of the temporary special permit. A temporary special permit is “a permit issued by the local authority for the temporary use of, or encroachment on, the sidewalk or other public area, including, but not limited to, an encroachment permit, special event permit, or temporary event permit”;
11. Requiring a sidewalk vendor to submit certain information on his or her operations (e.g., name of vendor; type of merchandise; CDTFA permit number; if the vendor is an agent of another, the name of the principal, etc.); and
12. Requiring compliance with other generally applicable laws.
ENFORCEMENT:
Criminal penalties for sidewalk vending are prohibited. Instead, a violation of a local ordinance may only be enforced through an administrative fine and pursuant to an “ability-to-pay determination.” Such fines cannot exceed: $100/first violation; $200/second violation within one year of first violation; and $500/all additional Date: September 26, 2023
Subject: INTRODUCTION OF AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF VALLEJO REPEALING SECTIONS 4.04.065, 5.04.066, 5.04.070 RELATING TO PEDDLERS AND 8.40.100 RELATING TO PLACING OBJECTS ON STREETS—STOPS BY VENDORS SELLING MERCHANDISE” OF THE VALLEJO MUNICIPAL CODE AND ADDING CHAPTER 5.02 “SIDEWALK/RIGHT-OF-WAY VENDING”
violations within one year of first violation. Failure to pay the administrative fine is not punishable as an infraction or misdemeanor and additional fines, fees, assessments, or any other financial conditions may not be imposed. Upon the fourth violation and any subsequent violations, however, the City may revoke the sidewalk vendor permit for the term of that permit. If the vendor continues to violate the local ordinance by selling without a permit, the City may then institute another fine schedule not exceeding the following:
$250/first violation; $500/second violation; and $1000/third and subsequent violations.
Upon issuing an administrative citation, the City must provide notice to the vendor that he or she has the right to request an ability-to-pay determination and make instructions available for such a hearing. The City must accept payment of 20% in full satisfaction of the fine(s) if the violator earns less than 125% of the federal poverty line or receives certain means-tested government benefits as described in Government Code section 68632(a) and (b) (i.e., SSI or SSP, CalWORKS, Tribal TANF, SNAP, etc.). Alternatively, the City may allow the violator to complete community service in lieu of paying the total administrative fine, may waive the fine, or may offer an alternative disposition.
The proposed ordinance meets the standards of SB946 and provides safeguards for maintaining health and safety standards to protect the public.
FISCAL IMPACT
This action is regulatory in nature and is not anticipated to impact the General Fund.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
This action is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) because it is not a project which has a potential for resulting in either a direct physical change in the environment, or a reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment, pursuant to CEQA Guidelines section 15378.
