LOCAL SHELTERING KEY DELIVERABLES
The Humane Society of the North Bay ("HSNB") (formerly the Benicia Vallejo Humane Society) is a private, non-profit organization whose mission is providing lost or homeless animals medical care, shelter and nourishment; protecting animals from cruelty, neglect, and carelessness; and educating the public about animal welfare, overpopulation, and humane alternatives. This mission clearly is compatible with the need for effective and fiscally responsible animal control services for the citizens of the City of Vallejo ("City").

HSNB believes it is crucial to maintain a positive and supportive relationship with the City and Sheriff’s Animal Control so that the community has a local facility for community members to recover missing pets, adopt new pets, and access to other humane animal services - without traveling to the Solano County Animal Care Facility.

HSNB will supplementthe Solano County Sheriff’s Office Animal Control and include the following:

HSNB Services Provided to the Community Adoptions - on-site and through mobile adoption events Foster programs (saving lives and decreasing the number of animals going to the Solano County Animal Care Facility) Reuniting lost/found animals with their owners Low-cost spay/neuter and other pet care opportunities
Microchipping
Dog licensing
Public education
Other pet-related community services (i.e. new owner dog training, neonatal kitten care, etc.) Community Cat Program (Trap/Neuter/Return) and/or feral cat assistance (feral cat spay/neuter options, vaccinations, relocation and general guidance and assistance) Hours of Operation The HSNB facility will be open to the public for a minimum of six (6) hours per day, and five (5) days per week unless an emergency/disease outbreak requires a temporary closure. HSNB will communicate any necessary closures with the City of Vallejo and Sheriffs Animal Control.

The HSNB facility may be closed to the public on the following Holidays:
o New Year’s Day
o Memorial Day
0 4th of July
o Labor Day
o Thanksgiving Day
o Christmas Day
Animal Control Holds/Impounded Animals
HSNB will continue to provide humane animal services to the community, including intake of owner-surrendered animals as space allows.

DocuSign Envelope 10: 20AE90CD-7383-49BD-B[MD-E53586304CED 1 . Sheriffs Animal Control will deliver all impounded City and unincorporated Vallejo animals to HSNB for the legally required holding periods with the exception of those animals requiring immediate medical attention as identified in Attachment 1 of Exhibit A, incorporated by reference, pursuant to Penal Code §597(f). Animals requiring immediate medical care will be delivered to the Solano County Animal Care Facility or local veterinarian as described in Attachment 1 of Exhibit A, incorporated by reference.

2. The HSNB will create and maintain appropriate records for each animal brought to the shelter, including but not limited to the address and driver’s license number of the individual surrendering an animal (if available), and in the case of stray animals, the address or location/cross streets where the animal was obtained. a. Specific information about each impounded animal shall be entered electronically via the shelter management software orform as approved in this agreement or via mutual agreement of the three parties during both normal business and non-scheduled hours.

3. HSNB shall provide care for the dogs in the 20 restricted Animal Control kennels and the cats in the 18 Animal Control cat cages forthe legally required holding periods. Animals will be fed twice per day and kennels and cages will be cleaned twice per day; medications will be given if prescribed by a veterinarian. a. Sheriff’s Animal Control and representatives of the Solano County Sheriff’s Department will adhere to HSNB intake protocols (e.g. photographs, documentation and vaccination of animals upon intake, procedures that prevent the spread of disease, etc.)

4. All animals will receive the following required vaccines immediately upon intake: modified live DA2PP or DHPP and modified live Bordetella for canines; modified live FVRCP for felines. a. Sheriff’s Animal Control will vaccinate animals they bring to HSNB upon intake before placing into HSNB kennels. b. Animals found in Vallejo or surrendered/ dropped-off in person at HSNB by residents of Vallejo or Unincorporated Vallejo, will be vaccinated upon intake by HSNB prior to placing them into HSNB kennels. i. Sheriffs Animal Control may provide vaccines to HSNB for use on City of Vallejo and Unincorporated Vallejo animals if requested by HSNB. c. If not given by Sheriff’s Animal Control, rabies vaccinations will be administered to dogs accepted into HSNB’s adoption program by a licensed veterinarian as soon as possible. d. Of the owner-surrendered animals vaccinated and retained by HSNB, HSNB wi[1 reimburse Sheriff’s Animal Control the cost of the vaccines if supplied by Sheriff’s Animal Control . e. IfSheriff’s Animal Control uses HSNB vaccines, Sheriff’s Animal Control will reimburse HSNB for the cost of the vaccines. HSNB will provide space and refrigeration for all vaccines; ifSheriff’s Animal Control wants to use a separate refrigerator, Sheriff’s Animal Control is responsible for the cost.

5. Animals under HSNB ownership/responsibility will not be adopted or returned to their owners without the required vaccinations (modified live DA2PP or DHPP and modified live Bordetella for canines; modified live FVRCP forfelines). Additionally, dogs will not be permanently released without the required rabies vaccination and a current license. Due to the limited availability of an onsite veterinarian to administer rabies vaccinations, and therefore the inability to license, a procedure will be developed for these animals to ensure compliance with state and local law within a defined timeframe.

6. The HSNB will provide fiea control on all animals brought or surrendered to the HSNB.

7. During the period animals are at the HSNB facility, the HSNB may conduct temperament and behavior evaluations on all animals as potential adoption candidates. After the mandatory holding periods expire, HSNB maintains first right to pull any animal and place it into HSNB ownership/responsibility pending HSNB’s shelter and foster capacity. HSNB can also choose to release any impounded animal to Sheriff’s Animal Control to deliver to the Solano County Animal Care Facility.
a. HSNB will always maintain a minimum of 4 open dog kennels and cat cages for impounded animals.

8. HSNB will be responsible for the care and cost of any non-City or Unincorporated Vallejo animal unless the animal is left without HSNB’s approval. a. HSNB will maintain records to track the origin of all animals surrendered or dropped at the shelter to maintain financial accountability should those animals be transported to the Solano County Animal Care Facility.

HSNB City-owned Property
City and HSNB will discuss the feasibility of a long-term lease for the property on which HSNB currently operates. The HSNB recognizes that this area is in a former Redevelopment area and that all long-term leases must be approved by the State of California. The HSNB also understands that this process can take quite some time.

In the meantime, as has been the agreement between the HSNB and the City, the HSNB will continue to pay the City $1 per year forthe lease of the property, until a new lease agreement is executed. As a condition of the lease, a non-voting City Council liaison, may attend all board meetings on behalf of the City (except for closed sessions unless approved by the Board of Directors).

This lease is now in exchange for the identified "public benefit," defined as follows:

Adopt or foster out a minimum of 500 animals per year Reunite losUfound animals with their owners As available, provide low-cost spay/neuter and other affordable animal care opportunities to the Vallejo community Provide microchipping to 500 animals per year Available to the public to purchase dog licenses during business hours Provide a minimum of 12 public education opportunities per year (i.e. school programs, new owner dog training, neonatal kitten care, etc.) Will develop a Community Cat Program (Trap/Neuter/Return) and/or feral cat assistance (feral cat spay/neuter opportunities, vaccinations, relocation and general guidance and assistance)
Failure to meet these requirements may result in an increase or adjustment of rent paid by HSNB to the City orthe termination of said lease. HSNB will provide monthly reports to the City during the first year of this Agreement, and quarterly reports thereafter. These reports shall include numerical data to date toward achieving the above listed ’public benefit goals."

HSNB understands that the California Public Records Act or other applicable law may compel the disclosure or production of records relating to this Agreement. Upon reasonable request by the City, HSNB will allow City representatives accessto HSNB records and documents (Le. financial, animal, etc.) for any lawful purpose, including compliance with the California Public Records Act or any applicable Iaw. Personnel records, attorney/client privileged documents and any other exempted material will not be disclosed to any requestor, unless disclosure of this information is compelled orwarranted by law. In the event a request for HSNB records is received by the City, City will promptly notify HSNB of the receipt of the request in order to afford HSNB with an opportunity to oppose disclosure.

Dear Armond,
The Humane Society of the North Bay ( HSNB) does not provide veterinary services for animals privately owned by members of the public.

HSNB contracts with a licensed veterinarian who serves part-time to provide basic care and health evaluations for HSNB shelter animals . He also administers rabies shots ; which staff are not licensed to perform .

HSNB animals that are observed to have health concerns that need medical treatment beyond basic and standard care, or have health concerns of unknown origin , are transferred to outside veterinary offices for evaluation and treatment.

CONTINUED WORK AT CITY FACILITIES AND AUTHORIZING THE CITY MANAGER TO

EXECUTE SAME

RECOMMENDATION
Adopt a Resolution approving a First Amendment to the Vendor Service Agreement with EnPro Elevator, Inc., to increase the amount of the contract to a total not to exceed $500,000 and authorizing the City Manager to execute same.

REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATION
The elevators at City facilities need maintenance, repair, renovation, and modernization in order to remain operational and in conformance with current safety standards. The elevator at the Vallejo Naval Museum currently does not work and is in need of repair to make it operable.

BACKGROUND AND DISCUSSION
The City advertised a formal Request for Proposals (RFP) for elevator inspection and maintenance services in July 2022. EnPro Elevator, Inc., was the only firm that responded to the RFP.

Staff executed a Vendor Service Agreement (Agreement) with EnPro Elevator, Inc., for an amount not to exceed $100,000 in order for elevator repair and maintenance work to continue without interruption at City facilities. The Agreement was executed on September 20, 2022 (23-PW042). The RFP stated the contract initially would be for $100,000 but could be increased at a later date if the City deemed it necessary and upon Council approval.

The City-owned building located at 734 Marin Street was constructed in 1927 as Vallejo's second City Hall.

The facility re-opened as the Vallejo Naval Museum on July 7, 1979. Staff have been notified that the elevator at the museum has stopped working.

As the City currently has an Agreement with EnPro Elevator, Inc., staff reached out to the vendor to get a repair estimate. Due to the complex nature of the elevator system in the building, the total amount of the proposal is $216,560 for the following work:
• Install new code compliant solid state controls
• Install new solid state elevator landing system
• Install new cartop inspection station
• Install new submersible hydraulic power unit with code compliant seismic rupture valve and new hydraulic oil
• Install new ADA code compliant fixtures
Date: November 28, 2023
Subject: ADOPT A RESOLUTION APPROVING A FIRST AMENDMENT TO THE VENDOR SERVICE AGREEMENT WITH ENPRO ELEVATOR, INC. TO INCREASE THE AMOUNT OF THE CONTRACT TO A TOTAL AMOUNT NOT TO EXCEED $500,000

FOR CONTINUED WORK AT CITY FACILITIES AND AUTHORIZING THE CITY

MANAGER TO EXECUTE SAME

Page 2 ends

• Install new code compliant close loop heavy duty door operators with door zone restrictors • Install new code complaint door reopening devices
• Install all new wiring and traveling cables
• Includes removal of old equipment
• Oil disposal
• State permits
Staff recommends increasing the amount of the Agreement with EnPro Elevator, Inc., to an amount not to exceed $500,000 so that the work needed to repair the elevator at the Vallejo Naval Museum can be completed and to ensure inspection and maintenance of elevators at other City facilities can continue through the full term of the Agreement.

FISCAL IMPACT
There is no fiscal impact with approval of this item. Funding is included in the City's Fiscal Year 2023-24 Adopted Budget.

ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
This action is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15301(d) because it consists of restoration or rehabilitation of existing mechanical equipment to meet current standards of public health and safety.

CONSENT CALENDAR 8.H.

DATE: November 28, 2023
TO: Mayor and Members of the City Council
FROM: Beth Schoenberger, Water Director
SUBJECT: ADOPT RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING THE CITY MANAGER TO EXECUTE TWO

PURCHASE AGREEMENTS FOR WATER TREATMENT CHEMICAL SUPPLIES

RECOMMENDATION
Adopt a resolution authorizing the City Manager to execute two purchase agreements for chemical purchases for Water Department Operations with a combined total not to exceed $725,956.

REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATION
The Water Department uses various chemicals in its three water treatment plants, and must make significant operational purchases during the fiscal year. The City's participation in the North Bay Agency Chemical Pool has provided volume pricing for chemicals (other than those identified as specialty chemicals). In the event of unforeseen emergency impacts, the City Manager's Council-approved contract negotiation authority will be utilized to avoid interruption in the supply of chemicals.

BACKGROUND AND DISCUSSION
Since 1995, the City of Vallejo has participated in the North Bay Agency Chemical Pool (NBACP) for procurement of water treatment chemical supplies. The Vallejo Municipal Code section 3.20.080c authorizes purchases of supplies through contracts with other public agencies and cooperative purchasing agreements where it is advantageous to the City. Participation in the NBACP allows the City and participating agencies to purchase chemicals through a formal bid process that facilitates competitive high-volume pricing (at higher supply volume with competitive results) that is lower than what the City and participants could obtain in individual procurement processes. For FY 2023-24, in addition to the City of Vallejo, the following agencies are NBACP participants: American Canyon, Benicia, Calistoga, Davis, Fairfield, Napa, Petaluma, Saint Helena, Solano Irrigation District, City of West Sacramento, Vallejo Flood and Wastewater District, and Yountville. Every two years, responsibility for coordination of NBACP bids rotates to a different participating agency; the City of Davis coordinated the bids for this fiscal year.

NBACP issued Invitation for Bids on April 5, 2023, and the following bid for the supply of chemicals for water treatment were received and awarded:

1. Aluminum Sulfate
Chemtrade Chemicals US LLC, Parsippay, NJ $304 per dry ton

5. Sodium Hypochlorite (12.5% solution, full/short load) Thatcher Company of CA, Sacramento, CA $1.82 per gallon

FISCAL IMPACT
The North Bay Agency Chemical Pool’s Chemical Supply bids use anticipated quantities to obtain unit prices. The City’s actual chemical quantity needs are dependent on the dosages required to treat seasonally variant source water quality in compliance with State and Federal Environmental Protection Date: November 28, 2023
Subject: ADOPT RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING THE CITY MANAGER TO EXECUTE TWO

PURCHASE AGREEMENTS FOR WATER TREATMENT CHEMICAL SUPPLIES

Page 2 ends

Agency requirements. Pricing and supply chain availability has been impacted by the ongoing COVID-19 situation; accordingly, the chemical agreements' not-to-exceed amounts have been increased in anticipation of these fluctuations, as well as to cover taxes and fuel surcharges. The Water Department Enterprise FY23-24 budget is sufficient to cover the projected costs of chemical treatment supplies for the fiscal year.

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 Guideline section 15378.

CHEMICAL SUPPLIES PURCHASE AGREEMENT
This Chemical Supplies Purchase Agreement ("Agreement") is made and entered into this 1st day of July 2022, by and between the City of Vallejo, a municipal corporation ("City"), and Thatcher Group, Inc., a Delaware corporation, hereinafter referred to as “Vendor,” who agree as follows:

1. Vendor shall provide City, and deliver to Fleming Hill and Travis Water Treatment Plants and Swanzee, as required by the Vallejo Municipal Water System, the following:

Chemical: Sodium Hypochlorite, 12.5%
Quantity: 158,000 gallons
Unit Price: $1.82
Agreement Amount: $287,560.00
(Two hundred eighty-seven, five
hundred sixty dollars and zero cents)
Contingency for Misc Costs $28,756.00
And Surcharges (10%) (Twenty-eight thousand seven
hundred fifty-six dollars and zero
cents)
Agreement Not to Exceed Amount: $316,316.00
(Three hundred sixteen thousand
three hundred sixteen dollars and
zero cents)
The foregoing quantity(ies) is/are an approximation only, and are the quantities estimated as required by the Water System for the Agreement term. City does not expressly or by implication warrant that the actual quantities ordered during the Agreement term will correspond therewith and reserves the right to increase or decrease the quantity of chemical ordered at the bid price, as may be necessary or advisable.

2. Vendor hereby agrees that all chemicals and/or materials furnished shall be in accordance with the terms and conditions of each and every provision as set forth in those specifications entitled “NORTH BAY AGENCY CHEMICAL POOL CHEMICAL REQUIREMENTS,” referenced herein and made a part hereof as though attached or recited in their entirety herein.

3. Vendor further agrees that all chemicals and/or materials furnished and delivered shall be in conformity with its bid proposal and per specifications of the North Bay Agency Chemical Pool Bid opened on April 5, 2023.

4. Vendor further agrees that all chemicals and/or materials to be furnished and delivered shall be strictly in accordance with said specifications, except that the City reserves the right to accept material other than that called forth in said specifications provided the Water Director approves in writing such other chemical/material as equal or better prior to Vendor furnishing or delivering the same.

5. Vendor has obtained or agrees to apply, prior to performance under this Agreement, to City’s Finance Department for a business license, pay the applicable business license tax and maintain said business license during the term of this Agreement. The failure to obtain such license shall be a material breach of this Agreement and grounds for termination by City. No payments shall be made to Vendor until such business license(s) has been obtained.

6. Vendor shall be fully informed of all Federal, State, County or Municipal laws, statutes, ordinances, codes and regulations which may in any manner apply to or otherwise have effect on the material to be furnished and shall at all times abide by all such rulings, orders and decrees of those agencies, bodies or tribunals having any jurisdiction or authority over the same.

7. City hereby agrees to pay to Vendor, in lawful money of the United States of America, at the time and in accordance with the provisions set forth in said specifications the price(s) set forth above.

8. The term of this Agreement is for Fiscal Year 2023-2024, shall commence upon execution of the contract by the City Manager, and shall continue in full force and effect until June 30, 2024. City shall, at its discretion, have the right to extend the term of this Agreement for 90 days by written notice to Vendor.

ACTION ITEM 8.I.

DATE: November 28, 2023
TO: Mayor and Members of the City Council
FROM: Mike Malone, City Manager
SUBJECT: ADOPT RESOLUTION AMENDING THE FISCAL YEAR 2023-24 BUDGET, FUNDS 001 AND 201, TO APPROPRIATE $300,000 FROM GENERAL FUND BALANCE FOR CALDOJ EXPENDITURES (STEP 2 OF 2) AND AUTHORIZING THE CITY MANAGER TO EXPEND SAID FUNDS IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE AGREEMENT WITH CAL DOJ.

RECOMMENDATION
Adopt a resolution to amend the City’s Fiscal Year 2023-24 Budget, General Fund and Capital Outlay Fund, to appropriate $300,000 in General Fund balance for California Department of Justice (CalDOJ) expenditures and authorize the City Manager to expend said funds in accordance with the Agreement.

REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATION
This appropriation will allow the City to set aside and expend funding in the amount of $300,000 from General Fund Balance. As part of the City’s agreement with the CalDOJ, the City is to fund the costs of an Evaluator with an initial funding amount of $300,000.

BACKGROUND AND DISCUSSION
First announced publicly at the news conference on October 16, 2023, the City of Vallejo and CalDOJ reached a new agreement to further efforts relating to improvements within the Vallejo Police Department. This new agreement (“Agreement”) was reached through collaborative efforts between CalDOJ and the City and represents an important next step in that continuing relationship.

The Agreement focuses on completing the work on the original CalDOJ recommendations as well as making improvements to new and existing policies and procedures. As part of the Agreement, the City of Vallejo is required to fund the ongoing costs for the Evaluator to assist with the successful implementation of the terms of the agreement and recommendations. The first deposit amount will be $300,000.00 in accordance with the Agreement. Staff is recommending the use of a Multi-year Operating Project (MYOP) in Capital Outlay Fund 201 to separately account for and dispense the funding required to fund the Evaluator over the course of the five-year term of the Agreement. This is the second step in the 2-step process to amend the budget and to authorize the City Manager to expend such funds. Staff will return to the City Council at mid-year to update the budget numbers once more information is available.

Step 1 of 2, the Notice of Intent to Amend the budget, was approved by City Council on November 14, 2023.

FISCAL IMPACT
The approval of this item will amend and increase the expenditure budget for FY 2023-24 General Fund and Project MY2407 by $300,000. Revenues for Project MY2407 will also be increased by the same amount.

Capital Outlay Fund #201 Project # Revenue Expenditure
MY2407 $300,000 $300,000
The final costs for the DOJ Evaluator for the Fiscal Year are not known at this time, as the budget for this item has not yet been completed by DOJ and accepted by the City. This initial $300,000 funding step is required as per the Agreement. If the budget for the Evaluator has been received and accepted by the City by MidYear, it is expected that staff will return as part of the MidYear process to make further budget adjustments for these purposes.

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 Guideline section 15378.

ACTION ITEM 9.B.

DATE: November 28, 2023
TO: Mayor and Members of the City Council
FROM: Mark Helmbrecht, Acting Public Works Director
Oscar Alcantar, Assistant Public Works Director/Maintenance SUBJECT: ADOPT A RESOLUTION APPROVING A CONTRACT FOR CONSTRUCTION

MATERIALS WITH SYAR INDUSTRIES, LLC IN AN AMOUNT NOT TO EXCEED $3,000,000 AND AUTHORIZING THE CITY MANAGER TO EXECUTE SAME

RECOMMENDATION
Adopt a Resolution approving a contract for construction materials with Syar Industries, LLC in an amount not to exceed $3,000,000 and authorizing the City Manager to execute same.

REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATION
The City of Vallejo Public Works Department and Water Department perform maintenance and repair work that most often requires the use of various aggregate and paving materials. A formal Request for Proposals was recently advertised. Due to its competitive prices, experience in the industry, and close proximity to City of Vallejo jobsites, staff recommends awarding the contract to Syar Industries, LLC for a total amount not to exceed $3,000,000.

BACKGROUND AND DISCUSSION
The Public Works and Water Departments perform maintenance and repair services that generally require some volume of road construction material, including aggregate base rock, drain rock, and asphalt. These materials are purchased and picked up from a plant or quarry and trucked to the job site. In instances where asphalt has deteriorated and is milled before the street is repaved, the milled asphalt (referred to as “grindings”) is trucked from the job site to a quarry for recycling purposes.

Smaller scale projects are generally completed in-house using City staff and City equipment. Larger projects often require additional resources, including trucking services, to ensure efficient and effective completion.

Staff recently advertised a formal Request for Proposals for Construction Materials. Syar Industries, LLC (Syar) was the only firm to respond.

Syar provides aggregate and asphaltic products used in roadway and other construction projects. Its materials are available for varying quantity purchases, it has consistent operating hours, and is conveniently located near Vallejo on Lake Herman Road, Solano County, enabling prompt delivery of materials to job sites.

Some materials, such as asphalt, are manufactured at high temperatures. Paving and compaction of asphalt must be performed while the asphalt is sufficiently hot to ensure smooth roads and decrease future degradation. According to State of California Standard Specifications, asphalt must be delivered, spread, and compacted before the temperature of the material drops below 200 Degrees Fahrenheit. Increasing the distance between the plant and the job site results in decreased material temperature and overall quality of the product. Syar's close proximity to City of Vallejo job sites also results in increased production and decreased transportation costs.

Subject: ADOPT A RESOLUTION APPROVING A CONTRACT FOR CONSTRUCTION

MATERIALS WITH SYAR INDUSTRIES, LLC IN AN AMOUNT NOT TO EXCEED $3,000,000 AND AUTHORIZING THE CITY MANAGER TO EXECUTE SAME

Page 2 ends

On average, $500,000 - $600,000 is expended annually on construction/road materials.

Staff recommends awarding a two-year agreement, with three one-year options to extend, to Syar Industries, LLC for a total amount not to exceed $3,000,000.

FISCAL IMPACT
There is no fiscal impact with approval of this item. Funding for road construction materials is included in the City's Fiscal Year 2023-24 Adopted Budget. Budget actions necessary in future years will be reflected in the City's proposed budget documents for each budget cycle.

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 Guideline section 15378.

• Traffic calming measures impacting businesses on 5th Street. • Police services to battle crime/safety
• Removal of abandoned vehicles
• Addressing homelessness
• Prioritizing road repairs
• City communications
• Future community outreach during PB proposal development The impact on businesses and road repair were two concerns within the scope of the transportation theme of this project. Staff responded that the City’s design for improvements along 5th Street would consider and accommodate the access needs of all businesses and residents along 5th Street. In particular, large delivery trucks will be able to access Lippincott Supply’s driveway on 5th Street coming from and back to Sequoia Avenue. Similar attention will be paid to business access needs along 5th Street near Solano Street. City staff are already communicating with these businesses regarding the Lake Dalwigk Park Improvements project.

This project consists of traffic calming measures (speed humps, traffic circles in the residential intersections, curb extensions to narrow the roadway, etc.) to make the roadway a friendlier and safer environment for cyclists, pedestrians, and motorists. The bike-specific improvements will include signage along the edge of the roadway indicating that the street is a ‘Bike Route’ and potentially, sharrows painted on the street. (A sharrows is a symbol indicating which part of the road should be used by cyclists when the roadway is shared with motor vehicles.) An example of this signage can be seen at the intersection of Valle Vista and Broadway Avenues.

Road repairs are necessary throughout Vallejo. However, this Participatory Budgeting project has reached its maximum budget request, and is intended to support traffic-calming only.

Next StepsPending Council approval to allocate funding towards this project, staff will provide continuous project updates during its implementation phase. Following the community meeting held on September 30, 2023, 32 of the meeting participants provided contact information and indicated they wanted to remain connected with the project. Meeting participants were given the information to subscribe to City Communications, where Participatory Budgeting, among other updates, are published. It is the City’s intent to build a project-specific "myvallejo.com" web page for the public and to continue outreach efforts to expand lines of communication.

Further community input will be gathered and considered during the design phase.

The participatory budgeting process is consistently evolving. This project proposal was unique in that it identified a specific location and corridor for implementing traffic improvements. Historically, location selection for road improvement projects within the Participatory Budgeting process was left at the discretion of the Public Works department, and funds would essentially serve to supplement scheduled projects. In the future, the proposal development process will ensure that there is more targeted community outreach to locationspecific projects beyond the city-wide vote phase.

Slower Streets for Safety:
5th Street "Slow Street" / "Bike-Pedestrian Boulevard"
With the intent to upgrade our streets and provide calmer traffic flow, safer pedestrian and bicycle routes and connections, and improve the overall quality of life in Vallejo one neighborhood at a time (due to budget constraints) this project proposes to concentrate on an important corridor in South Vallejo.

With a consensus of 67% of affected 5th st. residents, the city of Vallejo will install access limiting measures at four intersections along the entirety of 5th st.

In the event that a 67% majority do not agree, {barring a 67% majority,} the city will install non traffic blocking measures such as traffic circles (roundabouts), signage, "tight turns", possibly
speed humps, or other "road diet" measures, and other markings such as sharrows allowed by state traffic engineering practices.

Solutions may include planters, bollards, delineators, intersection signage, roundabout curbing, and others. Guidance may come from various professional and governmental organizations such as:

Traffic Research and Education Center
USDOT-FHA Bikeway Selection Guide
AASHTO Bike Guide
FHWA's report on Bicycle Network Planning and Facility Design Approaches in the Netherlands and the United States
Design Manual for Bicycle Traffic (CROW Manual)
NACTO Slow Streets Guide
Specifics to be worked out with engineers et al:

We recommend:

Barriers that will allow a high clearance vehicle such as fire and garbage trucks through, at 5th/Maritime Academy -preventing northbound access to 5th (except bikes/peds), but allowing southbound vehicles to make a right turn only onto Maritime Academy. (Currently cars/trucks etc exit Southbound Highway 80 and speed excessively down and right onto 5th street. Vehicles already on 5th will be able to exit onto Maritime and subsequently, Sonoma Blvd either north or southbound.. )

2. Vehicle Barricades also at: Magazine street, Lemon st., Solano ave (businesses will access from Bennet ave),

3. stop signs for all cross streets along 5th .

If saying "no" to stops signs for Lemon or Magazine street traffic, then at the least, reduce speed to 15 mph on Lemon from just east of Sonoma to 500 feet east of 5th. This can be justified due to the line of sight issues, the expected increase in bicycle/ped cross traffic and the fact that there is a children's playground at the park.

Also yield signs for Lemon/magazine and other cross streets should be considered.

Why is this project needed? (1-2
paragraphs)
Vallejo is over-run by reckless and dangerous driving and seriously lacks safe routes for pedestrians and bicyclist alike to get to/from school, work, shopping, parks and simply to recreate. Neighborhoods that are being over-run by sideshows, speeding, and other reckless driving are making it next to impossible for children, elderly and just the average person to safely traverse our city. We have a plan for safer/better transportation but unfortunately not the funds to implement it. This project will make a serious dent in the problem and will set in motion a wave of continued neighborhood improvements.

Reduction of VMT (Vehicle Miles Traveled) is a stated goal of Vallejo and is mandated in some situations. By improving routes for safe bicycle and pedestrian, we will be actively pursuing these goals. 5th street is perfectly suited to this end with connections to other routes and city improvements.

Some of these are the Bay Trail (1 block away), the Carquinez Bluffs Trail connector (under Construction), Lake Dalwigk improvements (grant money already earmarked), Solano ave Bike improvements (in planning) and more.

Vallejo's General Plan 2040, Solano ATP, zoning maps Economic Development plans all support these improvements as necessary.

Unfortunately, although the need is well documented and acknowledged, Vallejo simply does not have enough funds in the budget to fully realize our goals. PB is a way forward.

How will the project address or solve
this need and/or problem? (1-2
paragraphs)
With strategically placed infrastructure we will improve walking, bicycling and "calm" our streets while simultaneously improving home values. A network of limited access intersections utilizing aesthetically pleasing planters, artwork and other traffic delineators/barriers will allow emergency vehicles through access while impeding the vehicles of sideshow participants and excessive traffic zooming through our city. This work would naturally entail some street repairs in the locations chosen for this project.

Describe in detail how residents,
visitors, groups, communities,
geographic areas, or the City of Vallejo
will benefit from this project. (1-2
paragraphs)
See above comments!
This project will first make a positive impact to the surrounding neighborhoods of implementation but will also filter to the entirety of Vallejo and all users of our streets.

Reckless driving (side shows, speeding etc) will be greatly reduced. Peace of mind for parents and hesitant cyclists/pedestrians knowing that there will be increased protection from vehicles is another benefit.

Improved quality of life for local residents, likely improved property values (data supports this), safer streets, increased status amongst visitors and travelers through and to our city, are a few more.

Describe the potential challenges and/or
obstacles for this project (1-2
paragraphs)
To fully realize our goal of the "ultimate slow street" we will need to garner the support of 67% of the residents. It is possible that we will not succeed in gaining this support so the back-up plan is to implement a smaller scale design that will not inhibit vehicle access to the degree that would otherwise be most effective. Either design will still be a vast improvement over current conditions.

NON-PHYSICAL MEASURES
Non-physical measures do not require physical changes to the roadway. They are intended to increase drivers’ awareness of surroundings and influence driver behavior without physical devices. Because these devices are not self-enforcing, they have limited effectiveness as stand-alone devices and should supplement physical devices.

Vertical deflection devises use variations in pavement height and alternative paving materials to physically reduce travel speeds. These devices are designed for travel speeds over the device of approximately 15 to 20 miles per hour (MPH).

Narrowing devices use raised islands, curb extensions, and other treatments to narrow the travel lane for motorists. They are not as effective as vertical or horizontal devices but can still calm traffic.

Diversion devices use raised islands and curb extensions to preclude particular vehicle movements, such as left turn or through movements, usually at an intersection.

Horizontal deflection devices use raised islands to eliminate straightline paths along roadways and through intersections.

Local streets are typically two-lane roadways with a speed limit of 25 miles per hour, or lower. Their primary function is to provide access to abutting properties. Local streets normally serve residential neighborhoods but can also provide access to businesses and other land uses. Normally a local street will not have centerline striping. Most roadways within the City are local streets.

Collectors are roadways that connect local roadways and streets with arterials. They balance mobility with property access. Collectors are normally two-lane roadways but can be as wide as four-lanes in some instances. Speed limits on collector facilities are typically 25-45 miles per hour. It is common for collector roadways (and arterials) to have yellow centerline striping, whereas a local residential street will not have a centerline.

Speed Hump/Lump/Cushion Installation Policy
City Engineering Department staff will conduct the necessary traffic engineering studies and determine a street’s eligibility for the installation of a speed hump, lump or cushion based on the following criteria:
• The street may not be a private street and must be accepted into the City’s maintained street system. • The street must have a posted or prima facia speed limit less than or equal to 25 miles per hour and a grade less than or equal to 8 percent. • Speed humps should not be placed within 150 feet of any intersection or traffic control device (stop sign, traffic signal, etc). • The minimum length of the street or street segment under consideration for speed hump installation shall not be less than 800 feet which is uninterrupted by stop signs or any other traffic control device. Speed humps will not be considered for installation on cul-de-sacs unless they have an uninterrupted length of 1,000 feet or more. • The measured 85th percentile speed from the 24-hour speed profile must exceed the posted speed limit by 5 miles per hour or more, or there must be five or more reported speed-related traffic collisions within the subject street segment during the last two years of data. • Streets with more than two-lanes or a width greater than 40 feet are not eligible for speed hump installation. • Speed humps should not be placed on horizontal curves with a radius less than 300 feet or on vertical curves with less than the minimum stopping sight distance.

COST:
$5,000-$15,000 per unit

NON-PHYSICAL MEASURES
Speed Trailer
Portable speed trailers visually display drivers’ realtime speeds compared to the posted speed limit. The number flashes in red if the driver’s speed exceeds the limit. This device allows the residents to observe the
actual speeds at which vehicles are traveling along
their neighborhood street and it makes the driver more
aware of their speed to make any speed adjustments
in accordance to the speed limit. Speed trailers are
not substitutes for permanent action, such as traffic
calming measures to address neighborhood speeding.

Advantages
• Relatively low cost
• Does not physically slow emergency vehicles or buses
• Quick implementation
• Provides immediate feedback
• Does not require enforcement personnel to be present
• Can be moved to different locations
• Data can be recorded
Disadvantages
• Effectiveness may be temporary
• Only effective for one direction of travel
• Subject to vandalism

Speed Feedback
Sign
Speed feedback signs measure each approaching
vehicle’s speed. They are typically mounted on or near
speed limit signs and are most common in school
zones. Real-time speeds are relayed to drivers and flash when driver speeds exceed the posted speed limit.

Advantages
• Real-time speed feedback
• Does not physically slow emergency vehicles or buses
• Permanent installation
• Data can be recorded
Disadvantages
• Effectiveness may be temporary
• May require power source
• Only effective for one direction of travel

NON-PHYSICAL MEASURES
Signage
Signs can be used to restrict trucks and
certain turn-movements to prevent undesired
truck traffic and turning movements. These
restriction signs may specify time periods.

Advantages
• Reduce truck traffic on certain streets
• Reduce cut-through traffic at specific times of the day • Does not physically slow emergency vehicles or buses
• Can increase the safety at intersections with prohibited turning movements by reducing conflict points
• Low cost
Disadvantages
• Requires regular maintenance
• Turn restrictions require enforcement during
time of restriction to be effective
• May divert a traffic problem to another street
COST:

Varies

NON-PHYSICAL MEASURES
Education
A variety of education strategies can be used to educate people on speeding and the safety risks associated
with speeding. Changing driver behavior and attitudes
will require increased public safety education.

The following strategies can be employed by the City
as part of a public safety education campaign:
• Brochure – describe the Traffic
Calming Program and process.
• Traffic Safety newsletter (Citywide and/
or neighborhood specific) – provide
information on volumes, speeds, and
speeding fines; describe traffic concerns and
recommendations; provide reminders of traffic
laws and traffic safety tips for all modes.
• Website – provide a designated page on the
City’s website to provide information on
the Traffic Calming Program and the same
information recommended for the newsletter.
• Speed yard signs – Make yard signs available to the
public for free at locations around the City. They
should be brightly colored and include phrases
like, “20 is plenty,” “Keep kids safe,” “Drive like
you/your children live here,” and “Slow down.”
• Permanent roadside memorial signs at crash
locations – install displays (photos, memorials,
handmade signs, etc.) to show where pedestrians
and bicyclists were injured or killed in a crash.

Advantages
• Relatively inexpensive
• Can be implemented incrementally over time
Disadvantages
• Staff time required to maintain and
update these resources

Speed Lump/
Cushion
Speed lumps/cushions are rounded raised areas places
across the road with two wheel cut-outs designed to
allow large vehicles, such as emergency vehicles and
buses, to pass with minimal slowing. The design limits
passenger cars and mid-size SUVs from fully passing
through the cut-outs and requires travel over the lump.

When installed on a street with rolled curbs or no curbs, bollards are places at the ends of the speed lump to
discourage vehicles from veering outside of the travel
lane to avoid the device. Speed lumps/cushions are
slightly less than four inches high, typically parabolic in shape, and have a design speed of 15 to 20 MPH. They
are usually constructed with a taper on each side to
allow unimpeded drainage between the lump and curb.

Advantages
• Effective in reducing speeds
• Does not physically slow emergency vehicles or buses
• Relatively easy for bicyclists to cross
Disadvantages
• Maintenance can be challenging
• Vehicles with a wide wheel base can pass
through the lump using the wheel cut-outs
• Increased noise

Speed Table
Speed tables are flat-topped speed humps approximately
22 feet long, which is typically long enough for the
entire wheel base of a passenger car to rest on top. The long flat fields, plus ramps that are more gently sloped than speed lumps/cushions and speed humps, give
speed tables a higher design speed than speed lumps/
cushions and speed humps. Speed tables may be more
appropriate for streets with higher ambient speeds.

Advantages
• Effective in reducing speeds, though not to the
extent of speed lumps/cushions and speed humps
• Maintenance is easier than speed lumps/
cushions and speed humps
• Slightly higher design speed compared to
speed lumps/cushions and speed humps, thus
compatible with collector streets and on grades

pedestrians more visible to approaching motorists.

Advantages
• Effective in reduction speeds, though not to the
extent of speed lumps/cushions and speed humps
• Maintenance is easier than speed lumps/

Raised Intersection
A raised intersection is a speed table for an entire
intersection. Construction involves providing ramps
on each intersection approach and elevating the entire
intersections to the level of the sidewalk. The crosswalks on each approach are also elevated so pedestrians
can cross the road at the same level as the sidewalk.

Advantages
• Effective in reduction speeds, though not to the
extent of speed lumps/cushions and speed humps
• Enhances pedestrian environment and crossings
Disadvantages
• Relatively expensive
• Increased noise
• Impacts to drainage needs to be considered

SPEED CONTROL – HORIZONTAL MEASURES
Traffic Circle
Traffic circles are raised islands, placed in intersections, around which traffic circulates. Stop signs or yield
signs can be used as traffic controls at the approaches of the traffic circle. Traffic circles prevent drivers from speeding through intersections by impeding the straightline path and forcing drivers to slow down to yield.

Depending on the size of the intersection and circle,
trucks may be permitted to turn left in front of the
circle, and the City can use mountable curbs if turn radii are a concern for emergency vehicles and/or trucks.

Advantages
• Very effective in moderating speeds
and improving safety
• Can have positive aesthetic value
Disadvantages
• Can be difficult for emergency vehicles or large
trucks to travel around if not designed properly
• Must be designed so that the circulating
traffic does not encroach on crosswalks
• Potential loss of on-street parking

Roundabout
(Single-Lane)
Roundabouts require traffic to circulate
counterclockwise around a center island. Unlike
traffic circles, roundabouts are used on higher volume
streets to allocate right-of-way among competing
movements. Roundabouts have raised splitter islands
to channel approaching traffic to the right, and do
not have stop signs. They are often found on collector
streets and substitute traffic signals. Due to the large amount of required right-of-way and construction
costs, roundabouts may be more appropriate for
new developments or redevelopment areas.

Advantages
• Enhanced safety compared to a traffic signal or stop sign • Minimizes queuing at approaches to the intersection
• Less expensive to operate than traffic signals
• Can have positive aesthetic value
• Shorter pedestrian crossing distance
Disadvantages
• May require major reconstruction
of an existing intersection
• Loss of on-street parking
• Continuous flow of traffic limits opportunity for
pedestrians to cross (compared to signalized
intersections with designated pedestrian crossing time) • May present additional obstacles to
visually impaired pedestrians

Hardened centerlines are bollards that prevent leftturners from crossing the centerlines when making a turn. Pedestrian islands can also accomplish the same if they are placed strategically, with the added benefit of being more durable and providing a pedestrian refuge.

Rubber speed bumps are often used in conjunction with
hardened centerlines and placed in an intersection.

There are a variety of design configurations.

Advantages
• Effective in reducing speeds and conflicts
with pedestrians/bicyclists
• Discourages drivers from cutting corners
and encourages following the proper
path when making left turns
• Low cost
Disadvantages
• Less durable

Bulb Outs/Curb
Extensions
Bulb-outs and curb extensions extend the sidewalk into
the parking lane to narrow the roadway at intersections.

Their effectiveness in calming traffic is limited by
the absence of vertical or horizontal deflection but
can still be beneficial. Bulb-outs decrease the curb
radii, thus reducing turning vehicle speeds. Bulbouts can also make intersections more pedestrian friendly by shortening the crossing distance.

Advantages
• Reduces vehicle turning speeds
• Reduces traffic volumes if alternative
routes are available
• Can increase pedestrian safety by reducing pedestrian crossing distance and exposure to vehicles
• Through and left-turn movements can be
easily navigated by large vehicles
• Creates protected on-street parking bays
Disadvantages
• Effectiveness is limited by the absence
of vertical or horizontal deflection
• May slow right-turning emergency vehicles
• Potential loss of street parking
• May require bicyclists to briefly
merge with vehicular traffic
COST:

Varies by Length
SPEED CONTROL – NARROWING DEVICES
Road Diet
A road diet reduces the number and/or width of travel
lanes to allocate space for other facilities such as
bike lanes, sidewalks, buffer zones, and/or on-street
parking. A road diet can create the perception of a
narrow lane width, thus reducing travel speeds.

Advantages
• Reduces vehicle speeds
• Reduces traffic volumes I alternative routes are available • Increases space for bike lanes, sidewalks,
buffer zones, and/or on-street parking
• Can be done as part of resurfacing project
Disadvantages
• Effectiveness is limited by the absence
of vertical or horizontal deflection

Two-Lane Choker
(Mid-Block Curb
Extension)
Chokers are curb extensions at midblock that
narrow the street. They leave the street cross
section with two lanes that are narrower than
the normal cross section. Their effectiveness in
calming traffic is limited by the absence of vertical
or horizontal deflection, but can still be beneficial.

Advantages
• Reduces vehicle speeds
• Reduces traffic volumes if alternative
routes are available
• Can be easily navigated by emergency
vehicles and buses
• Can have positive aesthetic value
Disadvantages
• Effectiveness is limited by the absence
of vertical or horizontal deflection
• May require bicyclists to briefly
merge with vehicular traffic
• Loss of on-street parking
• Potential buildup of debris in gutter

Medians without
Horizontal
Deflection/Ped
Refuge Island
Medians are narrow, raised islands placed in the
middle of the roadway around which traffic circulates.

Medians without horizontal deflection do not extend
into the travel lane, maintaining the straight-line path for drivers. While they are not as effective as medians with horizontal deflection, they can still reduce speeds by creating the perception of a narrow lane width.

Medians without horizontal deflection can also be used
as pedestrian refuge islands, increasing pedestrian
safety, and adding potential aesthetic benefits.

Advantages
• Reduces vehicle speeds
• Reduces traffic volumes if alternative
routes are available
• Can increase pedestrian safety
• Can have positive aesthetic value
Disadvantages
• Effect on vehicle speeds is limited by the
absence of vertical or horizontal deflection
• Potential loss of on-street parking
COST:

Varies by plant
SPEED CONTROL – NARROWING DEVICES
Street Trees/
Landscape Buffer
Street trees and landscape buffers can help reduce
vehicle speeds and collisions. Streets lined with trees or landscape center medians can create the perception
of a narrow lane width, thus reducing travel speeds.

Advantages
• Effective in reducing speeds and collisions
• Low cost
• Environmental benefits such as reduced flooding,
absorbing carbon emissions and producing
oxygen, and roadway cooling effect
• Can provide positive aesthetic value and placemaking
Disadvantages
• Requires maintenance
COST:

Varies by marking and signage
SPEED CONTROL – NARROWING DEVICES
On-Street Parking
On-street parking is parking next to a travel lane.

Drivers looking for parking will slow down along
the corridor. For drivers not looking for parking,
on-street parking can create the perception of a
narrow lane width, thus reducing travel speeds.

Advantages
• Reduces vehicle speeds
• Increase in on-street parking
• Can provide protection for pedestrians
from moving vehicles
• Low cost
Disadvantages
• Effect on vehicle speeds is limited by the
absence of vertical or horizontal deflection
• May interfere with bicyclists

Full Closure
Advantages
• Very effective in reducing cut-through traffic volumes • Maintains pedestrian and bicycle connectivity
• Can be designed to maintain access
for emergency vehicles
Disadvantages
• Creates circuitous routes for local residents
• Diverts traffic to another street
• Delays emergency vehicles
Full street closures are barriers places across a street to close the street completely to through traffic, usually leaving only sidewalks and bicycle facilities open.

The barriers may consist of landscaped islands, walls,
gates, side-by-side bollards, or any other obstructions that leave an opening smaller than the width of a
passenger car. Emergency vehicles are accommodated
via removable bollards or similar devices.

COST:
$20,000-$150,000

VOLUME CONTROL DEVICES
Half/Partial
Closure
Advantages
• Effective in reducing traffic volumes if
alternative routes are available
• Maintains pedestrian and bicycle connectivity
• Can direct vehicle travel on a desired route
• Can be designed to maintain access
for emergency vehicles
Disadvantages
• Creates circuitous routes for local residents
• Drivers can bypass the barrier
• Delays emergency vehicles
Half/partial closures are barriers that block travel
in one direction for a short distance on otherwise
two-way streets. They are the most common volume
control measure after full closures. Half/partial
closures are often used in sets to make travel through
neighborhoods circuitous rather than direct.

Diagonal Diverter
Advantages
• Effective in reducing traffic volumes if
alternative routes are available
• Maintains pedestrian and bicycle connectivity
• Can direct vehicle travel on a desired route
Disadvantages
• Creates circuitous routes for local residents
• Drivers can bypass the barrier
• Delays emergency vehicles
• May require reconstruction of corner curbs
Diagonal diverters place barriers, similar to those used for full or partial street closures, diagonally across an intersection, blocking through movement. Like half
closures, diagonal diverters are usually staggered to
create circuitous routes through neighborhoods.

Forced-Turn
Island
Forced-turn islands are raised islands that prohibit
certain movements on approaches to an intersection.

Advantages
• Can improve safety at an intersection by
prohibiting critical turning movements
• Reduces traffic volumes if alternative
routes are available
• Can direct vehicle travel on a desired route
Disadvantages
• If designed improperly, drivers can maneuver
around the island to make an illegal movement
• May divert a traffic problem to a different street
COST:
$2,500-$300,000

VOLUME CONTROL DEVICES
Quiet Streets are residential streets that have
been designed to limit through traffic and provide
more and safer space for pedestrian and bicycle
activity. Full or half closures are the most common
installations used to create a Quiet Street.

Advantages
• Effective in reducing traffic volumes
• Creates a safer pedestrian and bicycle environment
• Provides more space for pedestrian and bicycle activity Disadvantages
• Creates circuitous routes for local residents
• Drivers can bypass the barrier
• Delays emergency vehicles
• Not ideal for signalized streets, or transit, large

1 INTRODUCTION

INTRODUCTION 1-1
INTRODUCTION 1
WHAT IS A GENERAL PLAN?
Every municipality in California is required by the State to adopt and periodically update a general plan that provides a comprehensive, long-range statement of the jurisdiction’s land use policies for the coming decades. Propel Vallejo: General Plan 2040 is the City government’s primary tool to guide physical change within the city limits, and, in some cases beyond them in a Sphere of Influence (SOI) (where City services may someday be provided), which is collectively referred to as the Planning Area. The SOI includes unincorporated islands in the community and adjacent areas where land use decisions in areas governed by Solano County might affect quality of life for Vallejoans.

A general plan is broad in scope, addressing all geographic areas within the City’s Planning Area and all issues relating to the physical character of the city. In addition, the plan is visionary—it looks 25 years into the future and focuses on broad, emerging trends that will shape the Vallejo of tomorrow. Finally, the plan must be internally consistent: its policies and actions are vital to carrying out goals and complement one another across topic areas without conflicting.1
The Propel Vallejo General Plan is the community’s overarching policy document that defines a vision for future change and guides the location and character of development, enhancing the local economy, conserving resources, improving public services and safety, and fostering community well-being. The General Plan is the City’s primary land use regulatory tool and describes the means necessary to achieve the community’s vision for the future. The General Plan is Vallejo’s constitution for future change and, together with the Development Code (Title 16 of the Municipal Code) and other related sections of the Municipal Code, will serve as the basis for planningrelated decisions made by City staff, the Planning Commission, the City Council, and other City boards and commissions.

GENERAL PLAN REQUIREMENTS
A city’s zoning regulations and subdivision approvals must be consistent with an adopted general plan. Once a general plan is adopted, updated, or amended, the zoning, subdivision, and other land use regulation ordinances must be amended to be consistent with the plan, as needed. State law requires that a general plan contain seven “elements”: land use, circulation, housing, conservation, open space/parks and recreation, safety, and noise. Optional elements may also be added, such as an Economic Development element; several additional optional elements are proposed in the Propel Vallejo General plan. Table 1-1 compares the State-mandated elements to the structure of Propel Vallejo: General Plan 2040.

a. Required per California Government Code Section 65302. b. The Vallejo General Plan also includes the State-required Housing Element. The Housing Element is not part of the General Plan Update.

The general plan is to be considered and used as a whole. Case law and accepted land use practice stress the equality of the elements in a general plan. Since all general plan elements carry equal weight, no single section, chapter, or subject can be stressed while ignoring others. All of the sections should be read together, although updates to the Housing Element are required more frequently under a separate, more specific set of State laws.

The Propel Vallejo General Plan update consolidates the elements found in the 1999 Plan (the last updated General Plan) into the following four chapters: Community and People; Nature and the Built Environment; Economy, Education, and Training; and Mobility, Transportation, and Connectivity. Table 1-1 shows the way in which the General Plan Update incorporates the State-mandated elements. State law requires an update to the Housing Element every seven years; the City last updated the Housing Element in May 2015 to cover the planning period between 2015 and 2023. The General Plan update does not involve any amendments to the Housing Element.

RECENT PLANNING EFFORTS
Perspectives regarding planning in Vallejo have changed significantly since the economic downturn of the 1990s and the closure of the Mare Island Shipyard in 1996, which brought the need to reorient the local economy. The prior General Plan update in 1999, which emphasized Vallejo’s strategic location and transportation connections, led to the adoption of long-range plans for key areas, including the Mare Island INTRODUCTION 1-3
Specific Plan, Downtown Vallejo Specific Plan, Vallejo Waterfront Planned Development Master Plan and Design Guidelines, and the County Fairgrounds/ Discovery Kingdom area (“Solano 360,” see Table 1-2).

Other important recent City planning initiatives include establishment of the Vallejo Waterfront & Downtown Priority Development Area (PDA) and the adoption of the 2015-2023 Housing Element. The General Plan connects the goals of these specific plans together into one unified and cohesive vision that continues to meet the legal requirements of both those specific plans and the General Plan to guide future preservation and change throughout the entire city, including areas that have not previously been subject to more detailed planning efforts.

The General Plan update also solidifies the initiatives contained in the City’s first-ever Climate Action Plan (CAP), adopted in 2012. The CAP seeks to reduce communitywide greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in the categories of City government operations, renewable energy, and transportation; and it promotes energy efficiency, water conservation, and adaptation to changing environmental conditions.

PLAN OBJECTIVES
In conceiving the Propel Vallejo effort, the City Council sought to create a comprehensive General Plan Update that would go beyond State requirements to also emphasize economic development; historic preservation; arts and culture; and community health. The Council’s goals for the Plan included not only protecting and improving on the City’s existing physical, social, and economic conditions, but also to promote sustainability and improve the efficacy of non-automobile transportation in Vallejo.

The Council directed that a communitywide inclusive process be utilized using both proven and innovative outreach strategies. Accordingly, a multifaceted, two-year campaign of public engagement, ranging from face-to-face to entirely digital input opportunities, brought involvement from community members who represent a broad cross-section of interests and cultural concerns, and ensured participation from all population sectors of the city, including underserved communities.

Based on the City Council direction and broad community input, the specific objectives of the General Plan Update include:
• Focusing future growth to foster a vibrant Downtown/Waterfront District, strong job centers, livable neighborhoods, thriving neighborhood corridors, and retail/ entertainment clusters that draw visitors from the city and the region. • Preserving and enhancing the natural, historic, and scenic resources that make Vallejo special.
• Establishing Vallejo as an attractive place to live, work, shop, and enjoy time off. • Providing a balance of employment and housing opportunities locally. • Attracting and supporting investment for rehabilitation and new development that builds the tax base and provides fiscal stability to fund municipal services. • Promoting infill development, particularly on vacant and underutilized parcels in central areas of Vallejo.
• Leveraging publicly owned lands and infrastructure investments to catalyze development in key opportunity areas.
• Ensuring there is land available to accommodate public facilities as growth takes place.

INTRODUCTION 1-5
• Focusing development and redevelopment near existing and planned transit facilities including the Ferry Terminal and Vallejo Transit Station, to make it easier and more convenient for residents and people who work in Vallejo to use transit. • Strengthening and enhancing connections between neighborhoods and key destinations in the community.
• Providing a range of options for getting around Vallejo, including alternatives to the automobile such as biking, walking, and transit.
• Fostering a stable and diverse local economy built on local strengths in the manufacturing, health and life sciences, higher education and tourism sectors. • Helping to build strong connections between residents, businesses, community groups, and City officials, and encouraging active participation in civic life. • Increasing personal safety and emergency preparedness.

GOALS, POLICIES, AND ACTIONS
Propel Vallejo: General Plan 2040 is built around a series of goals, policies, and actions that describe what needs to be done to achieve the community’s vision for the future. “Goals” are end-states; they describe what the community wants to accomplish to resolve a particular issue or problem. Policies and actions guide day-to-day decisionmaking so that there will be continuing progress toward the attainment of goals. Goal, policy, and action are further defined as follows:
• Goal: A general, overall, and ultimate desired outcome toward which the City will direct effort during the 25-year timeframe of the general plan. • Policy: A specific statement that regulates activities in the City, guides decisionmaking, and directs implementing actions to achieve a goal. General Plan policies 1-6 Vallejo General Plan 2040
guide City staff and the Planning Commission in their review of land development projects and in decision-making about City actions.
• Action: A measure, procedure, or technique intended to implement one or more policies to help reach a specified goal. An action may be ongoing or something that can be completed in a targeted timeframe.

The goals, policies, and actions are a critical component of the General Plan. Goals determine what should be done and where. Policies and actions together establish who will do the work and how and when the goals will be carried out. Accompanying narratives explain why. Taken together, they describe the steps the City and the community must take to make the vision of the General Plan a reality.

The plan is meant to be a useful, everyday guide for what to do where and when.

Explanatory text is provided where needed, and every action is listed and numbered under a specific policy. However, an action can sometimes help implement more than one policy, so there are cross-references provided in the Plan where appropriate.

STRUCTURE
Propel Vallejo: General Plan 2040 includes this introduction; a description of the City’s land use planning framework; and the four separate chapters that establish goals, policies, and actions for the seven elements covering the topics required by California State Government Code Section 65302; as well as for optional elements covering economic development, historic preservation, arts and culture, and community health.

In addition, the plan includes an index, glossary, and implementation plan summarizing all of its actions. The General Plan structure is summarized as follows:

1. Introduction – Describes the required elements of a General Plan and its production process, and provides an overview of the plan’s principles, objectives, and organization.

2. Planning Framework – Covers existing land use conditions and policy framework, and presents opportunity areas that help guide the location, intensity, and type of future growth and development in the city and its SOI.

3. Community & People – Addresses a range of issues related to community wellbeing and includes strategies for strengthening bonds between community members. The focus of this chapter is on fostering a climate of collaboration and opportunities for collective impact. It is organized around five key goals that represent priorities for Vallejoans: healthy community; safe city; strong community bonds; active participatory community; and caring, equitable community.

4. Nature & Built Environment – Covers the following topic areas required by California law: land use, conservation, open space, noise, and safety. Additionally it covers the following optional topics of importance to the Vallejo community:
historic preservation and arts and culture.

5. Economy, Education, & Training – Covers economic development, an optional topic for the State, but a topic of great importance and emphasis for the City. It outlines a vision for building a strong, stable, and diverse economy, and it addresses the locally important issues of workforce development, innovation, and green business practices.

6. Mobility, Transportation, & Connectivity – Covers the State-mandated topic area of circulation, including circulation of people and goods by road, rail, and water for all users, such as pedestrians, bicyclists, motor vehicles, and trucks.

Additionally, it addresses the locally important issues of regional and local connectivity within and between Vallejo's neighborhoods, including recreational trails.

INTRODUCTION 1-7

7. Index & Glossary – The index cross-references goals, policies, and actions found throughout the plan, while the glossary lists terms used in the plan, organized by subject.

Chapters 3 through 6 take their titles from and build on the four categories of Guiding Principles developed by community members for Propel Vallejo (see Chapter 2). An additional section within the Nature and Built Environment chapter has been added to satisfy State legal requirements for policies and actions needed to protect life and property from natural and human-made hazards.

HOW TO USE THIS PLAN
The General Plan is used as a point of reference for a variety of interested parties.

Some of the key groups that will use the General Plan include elected and appointed City officials, City staff, city residents, and individuals proposing new development projects when making decisions regarding such topics as subdivisions, capital improvements, and neighborhood rehabilitation. For all of these users and many others, the policies in this General Plan are intended to provide clear guidance and explanation of the City land use decision-making processes and about how Vallejo may grow, change, or stay the same.

In general, actions that use the words “require,” “prohibit,” or “shall” are mandatory.

Policies that use the words “encourage,” “promote,” “discourage,” “consider,” or “should” are not mandatory, and the City may choose to modify its course of action in cases where a policy may not prove appropriate for a particular situation or if extenuating factors, such as competing priorities or budget limitations, would make it difficult to follow a policy direction verbatim.

As described in Chapter 2, Planning Framework, the general plan update process involved a wide variety of stakeholders and interests. As a result, this General Plan is intended to meet multiple, and sometimes competing, policy objectives, and the City may not be able to strictly adhere to every policy in every decision that it makes to implement the overall goals of this General Plan. The City Council will continue to have discretion over prioritizing overall policy objectives to implement this General Plan in instances in which competing policy objectives may affect a single decision.

Finally, the plan is intended to be understandable and easily available to the public, in part because policies will be carried out only if they continue to merit community support. If and as conditions in Vallejo change, the Plan can and should be interpreted, and modified as necessary, to reflect and remain consistent with the City’s and community’s desires and priorities.

ANNUAL REVIEW BY PLANNING COMMISSION
State law requires the Planning Commission to report annually to the City Council, California Office of Planning and Research, and California Department of Housing and Community Development on:
• The status of the plan and progress in implementing it. • The City’s progress in meeting its share of regional housing needs pursuant to Government Code Section 65584.
• Local efforts to remove governmental constraints to the maintenance, improvement, and development of housing pursuant to Government Code Section 65583(c)(3).
• The degree to which the plan complies with the general plan guidelines developed and adopted pursuant to Government Code Section 65040.2.

In addition, the State expects the Planning Commission to review the City’s capital improvements program annually for consistency with the General Plan. 1-8 Vallejo General Plan 2040

AMENDING THE PLAN
Finally, the General Plan is intended to be as dynamic as needed by the Vallejo community. State law allows up to four general plan amendments per mandatory element per year. Requested amendments in California tend to be proposed by land owners seeking to change the land use designation for specific properties. In addition, the City could amend the General Plan in response to changes in growth and market demand or for other policy reasons.

Although much of the General Plan represents regulatory guidance and is subject to this limitation, many items in the General Plan are provided for informational purposes only. Items included for illustrative purposes, such as photographs, figures, and maps, do not establish General Plan policy and do not require a formal General Plan amendment to update or revise; their purpose is to help make the plan more user friendly. Similarly, typographical corrections and parcel boundary changes may be made without a formal General Plan amendment. However, modifications to figures that reflect State or City regulation, such as the General Plan Land Use Map (Map PF-5) or Circulation map (Map MTC-3) could require a General Plan amendment.

As time passes, the City may find it desirable to revise portions of the General Plan to reflect land use map changes or other changing circumstances. It generally is recommended that the City comprehensively review the plan every five years to determine whether it still reflects the community’s values, as well as the city’s physical and economic conditions. State law requires California’s Office of Planning Research to publish the names of jurisdictions with general plans older than 10 years and to notify the respective City Councils of these jurisdictions.

FRAMEWORK

PLANNING FRAMEWORK 2-1

PLANNING FRAMEWORK
2 is a vibrant and diverse community, located in the San Francisco Bay Area at a gateway to the inner Bay Area and the Napa Valley. Blessed with scenic natural beauty and a rich history, Vallejo is the largest city in Solano County and the tenth largest in the Bay Area (with 118,000 residents in 2016). This chapter presents the planning context for the Vallejo General Plan, summarizing local history, existing land use, major recent planning initiatives, and the process for developing the plan. It also outlines the vision for Vallejo in 2040, encapsulated in the General Plan Land Use Map.

PLANNING AREA
The city encompasses an area of approximately 50 square miles, framed by San Pablo Bay and the Napa/Sonoma Marshes on the west, the Carquinez Strait to the south, and unincorporated Solano County open space lands to the northeast (see Map PF-1). The General Plan considers land within the city limit as well as surrounding land the City may annex in the future, known as the Sphere of Influence (SOI).

Determined in conjunction with the Solano County Local Agency Formation Commission (LAFCO), the SOI is an area of approximately 4.5 square miles that could be provided with City services in the future and can therefore be considered as a potential future boundary of Vallejo. In the future, a General Plan amendment would address these areas if and when the City considers annexing these areas. Together, the city limit, unincorporated County islands within the community, and the SOI comprise the Planning Area.

HISTORY
While some of the earliest settlers of the area were the Native American Patwin and Carquin peoples, the town of Vallejo was originally built by people of European descent with streets laid out in a simple grid pattern along the waterfront. When California gained statehood in 1850, General Mariano Guadalupe Vallejo donated 156 acres of land to the United States, and for three years the city was the seat of State government. In the early days, growth was slow, in part because of a shortage of building materials, but with the establishment of the first west coast US naval facility on Mare Island in 1854 and the arrival of the transcontinental railroad in 1870, the population and the local economy began to grow.

With the addition of fill into the Mare Island Strait in the later 1800’s, Vallejo’s main street moved shoreward from Alameda Street (now also Broadway Street to the north) to Sonoma Street (now Sonoma Boulevard). The waterfront played a pivotal role in the history of the city, and its commercial importance brought prosperity to Vallejo.

Figure PF-1 depicts the street pattern during this time period. Rail connections to agricultural areas made Vallejo the nation's largest wheat shipping port in the late 19th Century, and in the early 20th Century shipbuilding activities on Mare Island were spurred by the Spanish American War, the opening of the Panama Canal, and World War I. The Navy became the primary engine of the local economy during World War II, and the local population swelled from 20,000 residents in 1940 to nearly 90,000 in 1945, as the shipyard workforce expanded.

Development in the early 20th Century was concentrated near the waterfront, across the Strait from the shipyard. The downtown area was largely rebuilt with two and three story buildings between 1910 and 1920; however, the development of highways and freeways began to change the local land use pattern. State Route (SR) 37, running 21 miles along the northern shore of San Pablo Bay, was built in 1917 to connect Novato to Vallejo. Lincoln Highway- the first transcontinental highway—was realigned in 1927 and guided travelers along a route now paralleled by Interstate 80 (I-80) through Davis, Vallejo and Berkeley, where drivers transferred to San Francisco via ferry. What is now Interstate 780 (I-780), opened as a State highway in 1935 and was redesignated to federal status in 1955.

FIGURE PF-1 VALLEJO HISTORICAL STREET PATTERN

2-4 Vallejo General Plan 2040
Sonoma Boulevard served not only as a main street but also as a major regional connector until the opening of I-80 in the 1950s; the following decades saw development of Vallejo's suburban neighborhoods, including Glen Cove with over 9,000 homes, Northgate with more than 2,000 homes and 2 million square feet of commercial and business development, and Hiddenbrooke with approximately 1,400 homes around a championship golf course. With new residents and constrained highways, direct ferry service between Vallejo and San Francisco resumed in 1986.

The economic downturn of the 1990s and the closure of the Mare Island Shipyard in 1996 brought the need to reorient the local economy. Activity in the downtown area generally continued to decline over the next two decades, but Vallejo's strategic location and the legacy of excellent transportation connections to the region provide a strong foundation on which to rebuild. Recent investments in the downtown and waterfront area, including development of the Vallejo Station inter-modal transit complex, support downtown revitalization and continue to recognize the waterfront as a critical asset for the community. Attraction and support of a now thriving population of artists and entrepreneurs in and around downtown and Mare Island has signaled an upsurgence in the economic and cultural identity of the city.

EXISTING LAND USE
Today, the urbanized area of Vallejo is predominantly residential in character, with single-family and multi-family development occupying 40 percent of the land within the city limit (see Chart PF-1). Commercial uses, including shopping centers, retail stores, hotels, and gas stations, account for approximately 8 percent of existing land uses; while industrial and manufacturing uses, concentrated primarily on Mare Island, make up nearly 5 percent of land in the city. Vacant and undeveloped land accounts for 6 percent of the total land area, with wetlands, parks, and natural open space comprising the balance.

CHART PF-1 EXISTING LAND USE
Map PF-2 shows the general distribution of vacant residential and commercial properties (i.e. properties with no structures/improvements) in Vallejo, based on 2014 data from the Solano County Assessor. These properties are largely concentrated in the central and western parts of the city, near Sonoma Boulevard and the Downtown/Waterfront area. Many of these parcels are small, but collectively they represent an important opportunity for infill development in established parts of the city well-served by transportation and utility infrastructure.

The transfer of significant portions of Mare Island from U.S. Navy to City ownership has allowed the City to plan for orderly growth and conservation of the area in partnership with interested developers. Among these, the Lennar Corporation (through its Lennar Mare Island subsidiary) has taken the lead in preparing and Source: Solano County Assessor, 2014.

PLANNING FRAMEWORK 2-5
MAP PF-2 VACANT RESIDENTIAL AND COMMERCIAL PARCELS marketing residential, commercial, industrial, and maritime properties. In combination with the organic changes in land uses occurring one property at a time in the Downtown/Waterfront and Mare Island districts, this holistic master planning has marked a new phase in the history and development of Vallejo.

The City of Vallejo owns several large properties downtown, on the waterfront, and on Mare Island, and new activity at these key locations can catalyze economic development and help strengthen sense of place and community identity. City-owned properties include the site of the former Pacific Gas & Electric (PG&E) Manufactured Gas plant on the southern waterfront between Curtola Parkway and the Ryder Street Wastewater Treatment Plant; the northern waterfront area at the western end of Tennessee Street south of the Mare Island Causeway; and North Mare Island east of Azuar Street between SR 37 and the Causeway.

THE GENERAL PLAN UPDATE PROCESS
In 2012, the Vallejo City Council initiated a robust public process to comprehensively update the General Plan and develop a renewed vision for the future of the city. A critical first step in the process was a community-wide effort to develop Guiding Principles. In the spring of 2014, a broad spectrum of community members contributed their energy and ideas either in person at one of four public workshops held in different locations around town, or via the City's online forum. Collaborating successfully with local community organizations, the City also took extra steps to include high school students, residents of South Vallejo, and members of local community groups in the conversation to make sure everyone had a voice in the process. This outreach resulted in the development of 19 Guiding Principles that were translated into goals for the General Plan Update and also served to guide development of the Sonoma Boulevard Specific Plan and the citywide zoning code update that were undertaken in parallel with the General Plan Update. 2-6 Vallejo General Plan 2040

2-8 Vallejo General Plan 2040
The City Council also appointed a 15-member General Plan Working Group (GPWG) to provide recommendations to City staff in creating a General Plan document responsive to neighborhood conditions and the aspirations of the community expressed in the Guiding Principles. With input from the GPWG, key opportunity areas were identified where development could expeditiously produce a significant positive impact on quality of life. These areas are generally locations that have not had the benefit of detailed planning efforts in the past, or where additional attention was needed to refine and update the community’s vision. The General Plan both supports continued implementation of the specific and master plans (see Map PF-3) and offers complementary policies and actions for the additional opportunity areas, shown on Map PF-4.

Then in a series of community workshops and online activities held in February and March 2015, the community at large was invited to help develop a vision for each area and the entire city in 2040. Again with the help of the GPWG, the broad range of ideas generated through that process was distilled into three distinct future scenarios, each of which described a different way that Vallejo could evolve over the coming 25 years.

Next, the future scenarios were presented to the community, together with an assessment of their impact on future economic and fiscal conditions, sustainability and public health, utilities and transportation infrastructure, and public services. In another series of workshops, online activities, and targeted outreach events held in September and October 2015, community members were asked to consider the future scenarios and help select the combination of components to include in a preferred future land use scenario to serve as the core of the General Plan Update. Refined with recommendations from the GPWG, the Economic Vitality Commission (EVC) and the Vallejo Planning Commission, and approved by City Council on March 1, 2016, the Preferred Scenario provided clear direction for the proposed General Plan land use map and the key planks in the policy framework of the Draft General Plan Update. The community vision is described in the following section. Community input received throughout the process informed the development of goals, policies, and actions in the General Plan Update, and the GPWG and EVC also made specific recommendations regarding revisions to the policy statements in the Draft Plan.

COMMUNITY VISION: RIVER AND BAY CITY
The vision for Vallejo in the planning horizon year 2040 is one anchored by a vibrant downtown and waterfront, which together are a focus of local life and a regional tourist attraction (see Map PF-3 City Elements). Strong job centers south of Downtown around Solano Avenue, on Mare Island, and along central Sonoma Boulevard north of Redwood Street provide good jobs for local residents and employees from the wider region. Thriving regional retail and entertainment attractions are located at the intersection of I-80 and SR 37. A network of mixed-use corridors links these key PLANNING FRAMEWORK 2-9
destinations, supporting safe, livable residential neighborhoods. At some key locations along these corridors, “urban villages,” with shops and services catering to the daily needs of residents, act as neighborhood focal points.

DOWNTOWN/WATERFRONT
Downtown/Central Waterfront
The General Plan envisions a vibrant downtown that is a destination for locals and visitors alike. A variety of new housing, including market rate condominiums, live/work units for creative professionals, and senior housing, contributes to downtown’s charming character. Mixed-use development on Virginia, Georgia, and York Streets, including redevelopment of some surface parking lots, provides new housing, retail, and office space within easy walking distance to the Ferry Terminal and the Vallejo Transit Station. Larger parcels on York or Virginia Streets host a college campus or student union. The historic Empress Theater anchors the dynamic Downtown Arts and Entertainment District, celebrating local arts and culture. In general, buildings are three-to-six stories high, with restaurants, cafes, shops, and services at ground level and professional offices and housing located above. Workers, residents, and students activate the downtown area seven days a week, providing a critical mass to support a “cafe culture” and technology access, sparking innovation and entrepreneurship.

A series of linkages connect Downtown with the Waterfront, including the Maine Street extension, the existing Vallejo Station Paseo, the Georgia Street extension, and the anticipated Capitol Street extension. Together with enhanced street furnishings, these linkages facilitate pedestrian circulation and visual links between the Waterfront and Downtown.

The General Plan promotes transit-oriented uses around the bus and ferry terminals.

Commercial development, such as office, retail, and visitor-serving uses, along Georgia Street adjacent to the parking structure on Santa Clara Street and across from the Vallejo Transit Center, brings commuters, tourists, and business visitors to the area and connects the Ferry Terminal with Downtown. Nearer the Waterfront, between Maine and Capitol Streets, a cluster of mixed-use residential and retail buildings connect the Waterfront with Downtown. Multi-family and condominium development group around public spaces, with retail and restaurant uses reinforcing the Waterfront and Downtown area for live, work, and play. Building heights stepping down closer to the Waterfront ensure that shoreline open spaces remain sunny and open.

The Southern Waterfront, west of Mare Island Way between Maine Street and Solano Street, features a mixed-use development with multi-family or student housing, a corporate campus, or an educational campus. Open space along the strait, including a boat launch, is a hallmark of any development on those sites.

Along the Water’s Edge
The General Plan envisions a continuous pathway along the waterfront, or as close to the shoreline as feasible, that extends from Maritime Academy and the Zampa Bridge in South Vallejo through the Downtown/Waterfront District north to River Park and White Slough. It connects to Mare Island via the Causeway. The pathway offers connections to the waterfront and other open space amenities; opportunities for strolling, jogging, skating, and cycling; and pause points, with seating at scenic spots affording views of the water and beyond. The pathway also provides access to places for in-water, recreational activities and for commercial and recreational small craft, such as water taxis, canoes, and kayaks. As it continues through the Central Waterfront, the pathway connects a series of larger public green spaces with recreational amenities for families and children. The pathway is a part of a citywide comprehensive network of multi-use trails, as detailed in a future Bicycle and Pedestrian Master Plan. !

In the Downtown/Waterfront District, Independence Park, south of the Ferry Terminal, has open space for kite flying and other informal activities, as well as picnic spaces for families, playscapes for children, and public art or monuments with interpretive signage highlighting the City’s proud military and maritime history. Service Club Area (the green north of the Ferry Building) continues as an open space available for festivals, events, and informal play. In the Northern Waterfront south of the Mare Island causeway, open space areas along Harbor Way provide a setting for recreation and possibly music and entertainment, as well as a visual amenity with interpretive features for scenic recreation.

On the western side of Mare Strait, on Mare Island, a waterfront promenade extends from the Causeway north and south to the Historic Core Plaza and shipyard area.

Southern and western portions of Mare Island offer an array of recreational opportunities, including a 188-acre Regional Park, a 26-acre Community Park, and an 18-hole golf course.

EMPLOYMENT CENTERS
South of Downtown
The General Plan seeks to strengthen the existing employment cluster south of Curtola near Lake Dalwigk and in the area adjacent to Downtown Vallejo. New commercial and light industrial uses complement existing businesses and facilitate a transition to fewer heavy industrial uses over time, bringing activities that are more compatible with residences to the north and south. Along the waterfront, existing industrial uses with long-term leases could become commercial/light industry, subject to property changes prior to the expiration of the existing leasehold, which could include a range of uses from research and development facilities and light manufacturing to hotels and tourist attractions, including a pathway along the waterfront.

The General Plan continues implementation of the Mare Island Specific Plan and the redevelopment of the historic shipyard as a multi-use community with a balance of industrial, office, commercial, residential, educational, recreation, cultural, and open space uses, meeting the needs of future generations. North Mare Island north of G Street is a major employment center, home to industrial, light industrial, office/ R&D, retail, and warehousing uses. Mare Island between North Mare Island and the Historic Core is also a major employment center, with office, research and development, light industrial, warehouse, retail commercial, educational/civic, and residential uses, including a compact, pedestrian-oriented Town Center and adaptive reuse of existing buildings. The Historic Core, generally located between Kansas Street and Tisdale Avenue, is a visitor-oriented mixed-use area that celebrates Mare Island’s history through reuse of some of its most historic and attractive buildings. The presence of these buildings along the waterfront provides opportunity for public gatherings, festivals, museum and interpretive activities, historic ships, restaurants, and other visitor-oriented uses in the setting of a working waterfront. Mare Island south of the Historic Core is a major employment center with industrial, light industrial, warehouse, office/R&D, educational (such as Touro University), and retail commercial uses, including the largest buildings on Mare Island, dry docks, and maritime infrastructure.

Sonoma-Broadway
The General Plan encourages commercial/office development along Sonoma Boulevard between Redwood Street and SR 37, with some light industrial uses accommodated both east and west of the corridor north of White Slough. Infill development complements the existing retail uses along the corridor and takes advantage of the regional connectivity provided by Sonoma Boulevard (SR 29). In the Broadway Street corridor between Redwood Street and Sereno Drive, new mixed-use PLANNING FRAMEWORK 2-13
commercial and residential development complements existing major employers, including Kaiser Permanente and Soltrans. An enhanced Sereno Transit Center provides easy access for commuters to this employment center. North of Sereno Drive along the Broadway corridor, the General Plan encourages commercial/office development and some light industrial uses.

RESIDENTIAL NEIGHBORHOODS
The General Plan preserves and enhances the basic land use pattern of Vallejo’s residential neighborhoods. Primarily single-family neighborhoods, such as those found most often on the east side of the city, continue to be predominantly single-family detached homes. Central neighborhoods in the more historic parts of the city remain largely characterized by single-family homes; however, the General Plan acknowledges and supports the current mix of housing types, which include converted duplexes and fourplexes, as well as some smaller-scale apartment buildings compatible with the traditional residential neighborhood character of the area.

On Mare Island, two residential villages, with approximately 1,200 residential units, provide a range of housing types, including high-density townhomes and condominiums, medium-density detached homes, and low-density duplexes and detached homes, in addition to civic, park, and open space areas.

In the White Slough area, mixed-use residential development fronting the west side of Sonoma Boulevard and Redwood Street, south of White Slough, complements existing development in the area and completes the neighborhood corridor connection along Sacramento Street and Redwood Street from the Terrace Park neighborhood to Sonoma Boulevard. Closer to White Slough, clustered townhomes provide residents with scenic views and open space for children to play.

CORRIDORS AND URBAN VILLAGES
The General Plan fosters a network of mixed-use corridors connecting Vallejo's neighborhoods with key destinations around town, including the Downtown/ Waterfront area and the employment districts. Infill development along the corridors intensify development and create neighborhood "main streets," with shops, services, and housing for local residents. The corridors include Springs Road between I-80 and Rollingwood Avenue; Solano Avenue between I-80 and Curtola Parkway; Tennessee Street west of I-80; Tuolumne Street between Tennessee Street and Curtola Parkway; Broadway Street from SR 37 to Tennessee Street; and Sacramento Street from Redwood Street to SR 37. An additional corridor includes Sonoma Boulevard between Curtola Parkway and Redwood Street, with improvements implemented by the Sonoma Boulevard Specific Plan.

The corridors run within a half-mile of some of the most densely populated neighborhoods in the city, putting local residents within easy walking and bicycling distance. This development pattern helps to create walkable, livable neighborhoods where people do not have to drive if they do not want to. Each of the neighborhood corridors is a “complete street,” with wide sidewalks, street furniture and trees, bicycle lanes, crosswalks, and bus turnouts to make it easy, safe, and enjoyable for all modes of transportation.

At key intersections and at other locations along the corridors, such as the intersection of Sereno Drive and Broadway Street, or the intersection of Springs Road and Oakwood Avenue, mixed-use urban villages with shops and services catering to the daily needs of residents act as neighborhood focal points. Other potential urban villages include Mini Drive and Sonoma Boulevard; Lemon Street and Sonoma Boulevard; and Magazine Street and Sonoma Boulevard.
2-14 Vallejo General Plan 2040

GATEWAY AREAS
North Gateway Area
Located at the northern end of Sonoma Boulevard north of SR 37, near the border with American Canyon, the General Plan envisions marquee development to announce arrival in Vallejo. In the large triangular area between Sonoma Boulevard and Broadway Street north of SR 37, new commercial-office and/or residential development, such as a corporate campus, hotel, or higher-density residential development, complements existing retail development. At Sonoma Boulevard and Mini Drive, a mixed-use retail/commercial development, accommodating a possible regional bus/bus-rapid station, includes shops and restaurants catering to local residents, transit users, and visitors on route to and from Napa Valley.

I-80/SR 37 Gateway Area
The General Plan supports, enhances, and helps connect several of Vallejo’s key regional attractions—the retail center at Gateway Plaza, Six Flags Discovery Kingdom, and Solano County Fairgrounds—with new commercial and residential development.

The General Plan maintains regional retail and entertainment uses in the thriving Gateway Plaza. A mix of uses east of the plaza supports growth of the existing Solano Community College and helps transition from regional mall to the existing residential neighborhoods. North of Columbus Parkway and west of Ascot Parkway, low-rise, welldesigned commercial development, such as retail, office, or hotel, appropriate to the natural beauty of the surrounding hills, complements the regional destinations across the street. The new mixed-use development in the area helps support more frequent transit connections with Downtown Vallejo and other parts of the city.

Attractive commercial-office development on the western portion of the Cooke site, between Turner Parkway and Rotary Way, is visible from the freeway and, together with other development on both sides of the freeway further north, strengthens the sense of place at this important regional destination in Vallejo. On the eastern portion of the Cooke site, residential development acknowledges the site’s natural features, allowing for a mix of housing types that transition to the surrounding single-family neighborhoods. On the western side of the freeway, attractive multi-family housing development on vacant and underutilized parcels also contributes to a sense of place.

Together, commercial-office and residential development in this area of the city brings more patrons to the planned restaurant, retail, and entertainment uses on the fairgrounds site, supporting the vision described in the Solano360 Specific Plan.

South Gateway Area/South Vallejo
The campus of California State University Maritime Academy (Cal Maritime) sits at the southern gateway to Vallejo. The General Plan supports the continued expansion of the campus at this location and encourages residential development along Sonoma Boulevard from the campus to McLane Street, with mixed-use urban villages providing shops and services for local residents at the Magazine Street and Lemon Street intersections. The General Plan supports community gardens and smaller-scale urban farms in this area, where local residents can grow fresh, healthy food for their families.

A completed San Francisco Bay Trail helps connect Cal Maritime and nearby with key destinations in Vallejo.

FROM VISION TO LAND USE MAP
Described above, the community’s vision is the basis for the City’s official land use map (see Map PF-6). The Land Use Map is the backbone of the General Plan, guiding future growth, change, and preservation to achieve the community’s vision of Vallejo as a river and bay city with the waterfront as showpiece, downtown as the cultural and commercial heart of the community, and a string of urban villages along pleasant and convenient corridors that connect the city.

PLANNING FRAMEWORK 2-15
The Land Use Map respects and capitalizes on the physical city structure elements shown in Map PF-5 that help define the character of Vallejo, including residential neighborhoods, employment centers, districts, gateways to the community, and the network of neighborhood corridors that connects the city. It also offers a variety of opportunities for to reinforce the roles of these community land use pillars, such as by adding shopping and employment near housing-rich areas and preserving and expanding housing in close proximity to commercial areas. • Residential neighborhoods form the basic fabric of the community. These are areas of the city characterized primarily by housing, parks, and community facilities. Neighborhood boundaries are based on the historic development pattern, subdivision boundaries, and local tradition. Each neighborhood in Vallejo has its own distinct character, defined by the buildings, streets, and public places, as well as by the people who live there. The older residential neighborhoods closest to downtown, typically built before 1940, tend to have a more walkable grid street pattern with a broader mix of housing types and some small storefronts occupied by local businesses. Newer residential neighborhoods outside the historic core tend to have more auto-oriented, curvilinear street patterns with detached, single family homes.
• Employment centers are areas of the city with significant concentrations of businesses and jobs. They tend to be well-served by public transit and transportation infrastructure, providing employees with a range of commute options. While the primary focus of activity in these areas is employment, they also provide public open spaces, plus cafes and daily services catering to the lunchtime and after-work needs of employees:
o South of Downtown – Expand the already successful employment between Sonoma Boulevard and Curtola Parkway.

MAP PF-5 CITY ELEMENTS
2-16 Vallejo General Plan 2040
o Mare Island – Add to the growing mix of industrial, office, and retail uses, as called for in the Mare Island Specific Plan.
o Sonoma-Broadway – Complement major medical and transportation enterprises with support services.
• Districts are vibrant mixed-use centers, oriented to a street or pedestrian network and having an identifiable character, that act as major focal points of the community, offering an array of choices for living, working, playing and shopping.

They are dynamic destinations with amenities that draw local residents from throughout Vallejo and visitors from the wider region:
o Solano 360 – Combines destination entertainment with regional and local shopping and a complete neighborhood.
o North Gateway – Provides a focal point for local and regional retail at the entrance to wine country.
o Mare Island – Offers a range of opportunities to live work, shop, and play in close proximity.
• Corridors are areas that connect all of the elements of the city’s structure and tie the community together. They pass through the residential neighborhoods, linking residents to key destinations around town. The corridors should provide safe, convenient connections for transit, bicycling, and walking, and provide opportunities for a range of housing options. Corridors also function as local destinations for nearby residents, serving as neighborhood "main streets" in the city’s urban villages, where people run errands, hold festivals, and meet friends and neighbors. Commercial uses tend to be concentrated near key intersections in the urban villages, which themselves are smaller-scale mixed use districts that serve as focal points for community activity.
• Urban Villages are located on mixed-use corridors and are walkable, bicyclefriendly, transit-oriented, mixed-use settings with shops and services catering to the daily needs of residents. Urban villages support transit use, incorporate civic spaces and facilities, and act as centers of community life and neighborhood focal points.
• Gateways are entry points into Vallejo located along major regional thoroughfares. They heighten sense of place and announce arrival into the community through building design and placement and site features such as landscaping, plazas, art, and signage. One such gateway includes I-80 at Tennessee Street, which provides direct access to Mare Island.

LAND USE DESIGNATIONS
The land use designations translate the elements of city structure into a detailed map that expresses the community's vision for future conservation and development on public and private land in Vallejo through the year 2040. Each designation includes standards for density or intensity of use. Residential densities are expressed in terms of dwelling units per acre.

Building intensities for non-residential uses are expressed in terms of floor area ratio (FAR), which is the ratio of gross building floor area (excluding areas designated for parking, etc.) to net lot area, both expressed in square feet (see Figure PF-2). FAR does not regulate building placement or form, only the spatial relationship between building size and lot size. In the designations below, FAR represents an expectation of the overall intensity of future development. The maximums assigned to the land use designations below do not constitute entitlements, nor are property owners or developers guaranteed that an individual project, when tested against the General Plan’s policies, will be able or permitted to achieve these maximums.

PLANNING FRAMEWORK 2-19
FIGURE PF-2 FLOOR AREA RATIO
Residential
Primarily Single-Family (R-SF). The R-SF designation applies to residential neighborhoods primarily characterized by detached single-family homes, although some older areas also have attached dwellings and small stores. Dwellings typically have front and rear yards, as well as side setbacks. Permitted land uses include singlefamily homes, in some instances duplexes, triplexes, fourplexes, and small commercial spaces, and public facilities such as schools, religious institutions, parks, and other community facilities appropriate within a residential neighborhood. The maximum permitted residential density in the R-SF designation is nine dwelling units per acre; however, in single-family areas where accessory dwelling units are allowed, maximum permitted residential density is 12 dwelling units per acre.

Mix of Housing Types/Medium Density (R-MH). The R-MH designation applies to residential neighborhoods largely characterized either by 1) single-family homes but with a mix of other housing types, including duplexes, triplexes, fourplexes, some smaller scale apartment buildings, and small commercial spaces; or 2) primarily singleuse, multi-family developments with common outdoor spaces. The residential neighborhoods with single-family and other housing types are typically located in the central and more historic parts of Vallejo. Dwellings typically have front and rear yards, as well as side setbacks. Zero side lots (zero lot lines) may be appropriate where they can be visually integrated into the existing neighborhood context. Permitted land uses include single-family homes; in some instances duplexes, triplexes, fourplexes, smaller scale apartment buildings, and small commercial spaces; and public facilities such as schools, religious institutions, parks, and other community facilities appropriate within a residential neighborhood. For primarily single-use, multi-family development, the R-MH designation applies to residential areas primarily characterized by parcels and buildings containing multiple residences, sometimes on several floors, and, in some instances, small commercial spaces. They are similar in character to those permitted in Primarily Multi-Family (R-MF), but with a lower residential density. The maximum permitted residential density in the R-MH designation is 25 dwelling units per acre.

Primarily Multi-Family (R-MF). The R-MF designation applies to residential areas primarily characterized by parcels and buildings containing multiple residences, sometimes on several floors, and in some instances small commercial spaces. These multi-family developments tend to have common outdoor spaces but may also have individual yards for dwelling units. They may have common exterior entrances with covered or indoor hallways, or residences may have individual exterior entrances. The maximum permitted residential density in the R-MF designation is 40 dwelling units per acre.
2-20 Vallejo General Plan 2040
Mixed Use
District – Downtown/Waterfront (D-D/W). The D-D/W designation applies to the downtown area, consistent with the Downtown Specific Plan; the adjacent Central Waterfront, subject to the Waterfront Planned Development Master Plan; and the Southern Waterfront. It is intended to promote a vibrant, pedestrian-oriented place that seamlessly integrates downtown with the waterfront. Layering compatible land uses and public amenities, together at various scales and intensities, the D-D/W designation allows for multiple functions within the same building or adjacent to one another in the same general vicinity to foster a mix of uses that encourages people to live, work, play, and shop in close proximity. The D-D/W designation is also intended to create a vibrant destination for people from other parts of the city and the region.

The maximum permitted FAR in the D-D/W designation is 6.0, with a minimum residential density of 30 dwelling units per acre up to 90 dwelling units per acre.

District – Mare Island (D-MI). The D-MI designation applies only to the portion of Mare Island subject to the Development Agreement with Lennar Mare Island, LLC. This designation is intended to facilitate implementation of the Mare Island Specific Plan, which seeks to revitalize this historic area of Vallejo and foster a vibrant civilian employment center alongside a balanced new residential neighborhood, subject to the Development Agreement previously executed. Land use density is set by the Specific Plan, with non-residential FAR determined on a project-specific basis.

District – Solano 360 (D-360). The D-360 designation applies only to the 149-acre County-owned fairgrounds property located in Vallejo. It is intended to facilitate implementation of the Solano360 Specific Plan and foster creation of an iconic, regionserving public entertainment destination with private mixed-use development. Land use density and non-residential FAR for new Entertainment-Mixed Uses set by the Specific Plan.

District – North Gateway (D-NG). The D-NG designation applies to the northern portion of the area north of SR 37 between Sonoma Boulevard and Broadway Street, a highly-visible area that serves as a gateway to Napa Valley from SR 37 (heading north) and to Vallejo from American Canyon (heading south). It is intended to foster an integrated, pedestrian-oriented place with a mix of uses, such as retail, dining, entertainment, and lodging, that cater to both motorists passing through and surrounding neighborhoods. It also incorporates higher-density residential development that supports nearby services and activates the area. The maximum permitted FAR in the D-NG designation is 2.0, with a minimum residential density of 30 dwelling units per acre up to 50 dwelling units per acre.

Central Corridor (CC). The CC designation applies only to the Sonoma Boulevard Specific Plan Area. The designation is intended to facilitate implementation of the Sonoma Boulevard Specific Plan and encourage the transformation of the corridor into an economically vibrant, visually attractive, functional, mixed-use, human-scaled, complete street, inclusive of Urban Villages. The Specific Plan identifies individual building types for different locations, instead of residential density or non-residential FAR. The maximum permitted FAR in the CC designation is 3.0. The residential density permitted is between 18 and 50 dwelling units per acre.

Neighborhood Corridor (NC). The NC designation is intended to promote pedestrian-oriented neighborhood "main streets" with an emphasis on shops and services catering to the daily needs of local residents, particularly at mixed-use Urban Villages. Permitted uses in the NC designation include multi-family developments, retail, personal, and automotive services, professional offices, community facilities, and other uses conducted primarily inside buildings and compatible with an eclectic neighborhood-oriented mixed-use environment. The maximum permitted FAR in the NC designation is 2.0, with minimum residential density of 18 dwelling units per acre up to 30 dwelling units per acre.

PLANNING FRAMEWORK 2-21
Business and Industry
Retail/Entertainment (RE). The RE designation provides for general retail, services, and entertainment for local residents as well as consumers and visitors from the wider region. Permitted land uses include shopping centers, auto sales, amusement parks, hotels, restaurants, service stations, marine-related operations, offices, general retail, personal and business services, and similar commercial uses. The maximum permitted FAR in the RE designation is 1.5.

Business/Limited Residential (B/LR). The B/LR designation is intended to facilitate high quality employment-based businesses, including professional office; health care and life sciences; research and development; production, distribution, and repair (PDR); and light industrial, manufacturing, and similar uses conducted primarily inside of buildings. A mix of lot sizes is encouraged to accommodate small businesses as well as larger campus-style uses. Restaurants, retail stores, automotive services, personal and business services, hotels, and recreational facilities that cater to the needs of businesses, employees, and residents of the surrounding area are accommodated in the B/LR designation. Residential-only or mixed-use projects containing a residential component are also accommodated, providing that findings of compatibility can be made. The maximum permitted FAR in the B/LR designation is 2.0, with minimum residential density of 25 dwelling units per acre up to 50 dwelling units per acre.

Business/Light Industrial (B/LI). The B/LI designation is intended to facilitate light industrial activities, including light manufacturing, warehousing and logistics; assembly; automotive service and maintenance, including auto body and painting operations; research and development; and production, distribution and repair (PDR) uses. Some light industrial and similar uses may include exterior storage areas. Professional office uses can also be accommodated in this designation. Secondary and accessory uses such as banks, cafes, printers, and office supply stores to serve the needs of employees and businesses are also encouraged. The maximum permitted FAR in the BLI designation is 2.5.

Industrial (I). The I designation is intended to facilitate industrial activities, including general industrial, heavy industrial, and manufacturing uses. This designation includes uses that may potentially generate more noise, hazards and truck traffic than do light industrial uses. Uses in this designation may also utilize rail and ships to transport materials and manufactured goods. Some industrial uses may require exterior storage areas. The maximum permitted FAR in the I designation is 2.0.

Community
Parks, Recreation, and Open Space (P-OS). The P-OS designation applies to lands intended for recreational use and/or natural resource preservation. Parks, playgrounds, active and passive recreational facilities, golf courses, marinas, passive uses, such as trails, for conservation and natural resource protection, and other similar uses are permitted in the P-OS designation. There is no maximum permitted FAR in the P-OS designation.
2-22 Vallejo General Plan 2040
Public Facilities and Institutions (PF). The PF designation encompasses facilities serving the good of the community, including fire and police stations; government buildings; health and social service clinics; hospitals; libraries; schools; educational institutions; and transit stations, as well as churches, community centers and community-serving recreational facilities. In some cases, it includes excess public rights-of-way. Assisted living facilities and neighborhood-oriented retail are conditional uses in this designation requiring permits. Co-location of multiple public facilities on a single site is encouraged where it will increase access to community services while offering cost savings and other benefits to community service providers. The maximum permitted FAR in the PF designation is from 0.1 to 1.0, determined on a case-by-case basis in consideration of the neighborhood context.

GENERAL PLAN AND THE DEVELOPMENT CODE
The General Plan land use designations anticipate and accommodate both conventional and form-based zoning districts to govern improvements to property.

Conventional zoning tends to favor a particular land use, and accordingly applies within Residential; Business and Industry; and Community designations. Mixed Use areas, including older Residential areas, are generally better suited to form-based zoning, which emphasizes the placement and design of buildings, as opposed to land use, and therefore tends to be more applicable in more urbanized areas.

Table PF-1 describes the overall relationship between the General Plan and the Zoning Code, referred to as the Development Code. Table PF-2 describes prevalent development patterns in Vallejo and associated zoning approaches—either conventional or form-based.

PLANNING FRAMEWORK 2-23
TABLE PF-1 General Plan Relationship to Development Code The General Plan establishes a broad vision and framework for land use in Vallejo, and provides policies and actions to manage development through 2040. The Development Code (previously titled Zoning Code) implements the Plan with specific standards that regulate development today. The two must be internally consistent. The functions of these two planning tools are presented below.

General Plan Development Code (Previously titled Zoning Code) • Identifies the community’s land use, circulation, environmental, economic, and social goals and policies as they relate to the future growth and development. • Defines and locates general land use throughout the city. • Describes the intent and direction of Vallejo’s growth. • Informs citizens, developers, decision-makers, and other cities and counties of the City’s Vision that guides development and provides a basis for decision making in Vallejo.
• Provides citizens with an opportunity to participate in the planning process. .
• Specifies permitted and conditionally permitted uses within the zoning districts. • Establishes development standards for land use throughout the city. • Regulates density (dwelling units per acre) and intensity (floor area ratio) of development. • Specifies standards for site design including open space, building orientation, massing, setbacks and relationship to the street and adjacent properties, and parking requirements. • Provides incentives for affordable housing, transit-oriented development and other types of development.

TABLE PF-2 Development Pattern and Corresponding Development Code Neighborhoods in Vallejo include those developed with a traditional street-grid pattern, such as Downtown and its surroundings, as well as other areas that reflect a curvilinear pattern, such as eastern Vallejo. The City’s Development Code incorporates both Form-Based and Conventional zoning districts and regulations that accommodate both types of land use patterns.

Traditional Development Pattern (Form-Based Zoning) Suburban Development Pattern (Conventional Zoning) • Applies to mixed-use districts or neighborhoods characterized by a compact, pedestrian-oriented street pattern and a variety of complementary uses, housing types, and civic spaces, often built at higher densities. This pattern is typically found in districts or neighborhoods built pre-World War II. In these areas, the form and character of development is emphasized rather than land use by applying a Form-Based Code (FBC).
• Characteristics of a traditional development pattern include:
• Parks, schools, civic buildings, and commercial establishments located within walking distance of homes.
• Residences with narrower front setbacks, front porches, and detached rear garages or alleyloaded parking. • Network of streets and paths suitable for pedestrians, bicyclists, and vehicles. • Narrower streets with crosswalks, streetscaping, and other traffic-calming measures. • In-scale development that fits the local context.
• Buildings oriented to the street with parking behind. • Applies to auto-oriented districts or neighborhoods with relatively low densities. Typically built post-World War II, they are characterized by dispersed, auto-orientated projects with similar uses or housing types. In these areas, land use is emphasized rather than the form and character of development by applying a Conventional Development Code. • Characteristics of a suburban development pattern include:
• Parks, schools, civic buildings, and commercial establishments located within driving distance of homes rather than by foot.
• Residences with large front setbacks and attached garages which often dominate the streetscape.
• Network of streets and paths more suitable for automobiles rather than pedestrians or bicyclists.
• Wider streets with fewer crosswalks, minimal streetscaping, and fewer traffic-calming measures.
• Buildings not oriented to the street and with parking in the front.

& PEOPLE
Goal CP-1: Healthy Community: Promote the health of all Vallejoans.

Goal CP-2: Safe City: Protect personal safety in Vallejo’s neighborhoods and public spaces.

Goal CP-3: Strong Community Bonds: Build strong connections between residents, businesses, community groups, and City officials.

Goal CP-4: Active, Participatory Community: Encourage the active participation of residents and local businesses in civic life.

Goal CP-5: Caring, Equitable Community: Promote a culture of compassion, dignity, and fairness that celebrates Vallejo’s diversity.

COMMUNITY & PEOPLE 3-1
COMMUNITY AND PEOPLE 3 starts with its people. They need to be healthy, safe, and engaged for the community to thrive. This chapter addresses a range of issues related to community well-being and includes strategies for strengthening bonds between community members. Community bonds are the foundation for positive change.

When people are connecting with one another and making choices to improve their lives and their community, it builds a sense of belonging that enhances the overall health and livability of the community. The focus of this chapter is on fostering a climate of collaboration and opportunities for collective impact. It is organized around five key goals that represent the priorities of Vallejoans: Healthy Community; Safe City; Strong Community Bonds; Active Participatory Community; and Caring, Equitable Community.

Community well-being is also addressed in other chapters of the plan. Factors affecting well-being such as access to natural open space, quality of the built environment, and land use compatibility are addressed in Chapter 4, Nature and Built Environment.

Economic vitality, education, training, and employment are addressed in Chapter 5, Economy, Education, and Training. Active transportation and roadway safety are addressed in Chapter 6, Mobility, Transportation, and Connectivity. Where policies and actions in other chapters in the plan have co-benefits that will help achieve the goals of this chapter, connections with those chapters are highlighted and cross-referenced.

DEMOGRAPHIC PROFILE
Vallejo is a culturally and ethnically diverse community. Nearly one in three residents was born outside of the US, and the population has a nearly equal share of Hispanic, White, African American, and Asian (largely Filipino) residents, as shown in Chart CP-1.

As noted in Table CP-1 and Chart CP-2, Vallejo also has a growing young adult population, with the proportion of residents between the ages of 18 and 35 increasing much faster than the Bay Area as a whole since 2000, and the level of educational attainment, while lower than the Bay Area average, is improving. These factors represent strengths on which to build. With lower household incomes than households in the County and region, a challenge for community building in Vallejo will be to empower all community members so that they can share more equally in regional prosperity in the future.

COMMUNITY & PEOPLE 3-3

GOALS, POLICIES, ANDACTIONS
GOAL CP-1
Healthy Community: Promote
the health of all Vallejoans.

Vallejo is committed to being a healthy community. In 2011, the City Council adopted a resolution advocating and supporting the Healthy Eating and Active Living (HEAL) Cities Campaign, joining a growing group of California communities choosing to address the relationship of the built environment and related matters to community health; and identified the General Plan as a primary vehicle to promote the well-being of all Vallejoans.

Health issues in Vallejo center on heart disease, cancer, stroke, asthma, diabetes, mental health, and substance abuse. Unintentional injury (including motor vehicle collisions and pedestrian injuries) and crime present other health concerns. For many of these causes, there are disparities based on location within Vallejo and associated social factors, especially income. In several pockets of the city, about one out of four residents survives below the federal poverty line. Residents In these neighborhoods are also more likely to be disabled and lack adequate health insurance.

While genetics, healthcare, and lifestyle choices affect health, so can land use patterns, transportation infrastructure, access to open space, economic success, and a variety of other factors, which in turn are guided and supported by the City and other partners, such as the Greater Vallejo Recreation District (GVRD), the Solano Public Health, and local educational providers. The wide variety of programs supportive of public health, and their success, can be expanded through continued and enhanced communitywide collaboration with the Greater Vallejo Recreation District, Solano Public Health, other government agencies, foundations, non-profits, community groups, educational institutions, and the business and faith-based communities.

HEALTHY EATING
Nutrition influences the incidence of obesity, diabetes, and a variety of other diseases, as well as school achievement and quality of life generally. General plans can affect the eating habitats of a community by ensuring that all parts of the city are served by healthy retail food sources and promoting programs that support healthy eating.

Fortunately, Vallejo can build on an extensive network of healthy eating advocates involved with farmers markets, community gardens, food banks, nutrition education, and other resources.

POLICY CP-1.1 Retail Food Sources. Strive to ensure that all households in Vallejo have easy access to retail sources of affordable healthy food, including organic options, such as fullservice grocery stores, ethnic food markets, produce markets, and convenience stores. Action CP-1.1A Work with Solano Public Health, universities, and other partners to identify areas of Vallejo that lack affordable healthy food retail options, using retail food indices and the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) "food desert" designation, and including maps that illustrate factors such as concentration of fast food restaurants and convenience food outlets, areas that lack affordable healthy food, areas with limited
transportation options, and areas of poverty.
“
3-4 Vallejo General Plan 2040
Action CP-1.1B Update City regulations and explore incentives to attract a full service grocery store to South Vallejo and to any other identified “food deserts.”
Action CP-1.1C In collaboration with Solano Public Health and other partners, consider a program to encourage markets to stock fresh
produce and other healthy foods.

Action CP-1.1D Consider updating City regulations to limit the number of fast food outlets and mobile vendors serving primarily unhealthy food near schools and parks and in areas with existing fast food outlets.

Action CP-1.1E Work with Soltrans to improve bus service to food shopping; and with Soltrans or other partners to establish a shuttle program for seniors and other community members who may not drive.

Action CP-1.1F Work with Solano Public Health and other partners to continue and expand the ability to use the Electronic Benefit Transfer (EBT) program at farmers' markets and other sources of
healthy food.

POLICY CP-1.2 Locally Grown Food. Collaborate with community partners to support and expand Vallejo’s community
gardens, Community Supported Agriculture (CSA)
programs, and urban agriculture.

Action CP-1.2A Work with community garden programs, Vallejo City Unified School District (VCUSD), Solano Community College, residents, and other local advocates, to establish a network of community gardens as sources of fresh produce, education, and social cohesion.

Action CP-1.2B Work with GVRD, residents, colleges and universities, Solano Public Health, and other community partners to identify community garden opportunities in parks or appropriate
properties and on City-owned property.

Action CP-1.2C Consider leasing publicly owned, non-contaminated vacant land for agricultural use, and work with partners such as colleges and universities to identify potential sites.

Action CP-1.2D Develop City regulations that encourage urban agriculture and farm stands, as appropriate.

Action CP-1.2E Publicize and promote the availability of food grown in Vallejo.

COMMUNITY & PEOPLE 3-5
POLICY CP-1.3 Healthy Eating Programs. Complement access to healthy food with programs to promote healthier eating.

Action CP-1.3A Work with schools, Solano Public Health, local hospitals, community health professionals and organizations active in urban farming, such as Loma Vista Farms, to develop a public education program highlighting the benefits of a whole foods, plant-based diet.

Action CP-1.3B Explore programs with the VCUSD, Solano Public Health, community garden groups, and other advocates to provide healthy foods in schools and other public institutions.

Action CP-1.3C Provide information on State and federal programs such as SNAP (Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program), WIC
(Women, Infants, and Children), and school lunch programs at farmers markets and other community events.

Action CP-1.3D Work with Solano Public Health to enlist restaurants in the CalFresh Restaurant Meals Program.

ACTIVE LIVING
Active living, a way of life that integrates physical activity into daily routines through community design,1 is critical to health. Of the many dimensions to active living, recreation and transportation are key to healthier lifestyles, and they require safe and well-maintained places for the community to gather and travel. The benefits of a community designed to promote active living include enhanced pedestrian safety, especially for seniors and youth. In Vallejo, GVRD offers numerous programs to support active living, including recreation programs and parkland.

Action CP-1.4E Promote community “ownership” of active recreation facilities by establishing programs that encourage local residents and neighborhood organizations to "adopt," protect, and maintain parks, open spaces, and trails.
3-6 Vallejo General Plan 2040
POLICY CP-1.5 Active Recreation Programming. Support and expand active recreation programs in Vallejo.

Action CP-1.5A Support the GVRD, residents, and community partners to assess the need for recreation facilities, programs, and services and develop a strategy for addressing those needs.

Action CP-1.5B Work with local community groups and Solano Public Health to initiate walking, hiking, cycling, and other recreation clubs and activities to increase participation, safety, and social cohesion.

POLICY CP-1.6 Active Transportation Network. Promote the health benefits of walking and bicycling by providing a
convenient and safe network of bicycle paths and routes, sidewalks, pedestrian paths, and trails, including
connections with major destinations such as civic
facilities, educational institutions, employment centers, shopping, and recreation areas.

Action CP-1.6A Identify problem locations in Vallejo regarding pedestrian/auto and bicycle/auto collisions, identify measures (e.g., traffic calming, improved street lighting) to reduce collisions, and develop a prioritized program for implementing identified measures.

Action CP-1.6B Support and expand Vallejo’s Safe Routes to Schools program in collaboration with the VCUSD, Vallejo Police Department, Solano Public Health, and Solano Transportation Authority (STA).

Action CP-1.6C Encourage school siting decisions that take safe walking and bicycling access into account.

Action CP-1.6D Develop guidelines for public and private projects that promote safe, convenient, and attractive bike and pedestrian facilities, including amenities to enhance bike and pedestrian activity, such as bicycle racks, lockers, street trees, public art, and street furniture.

Action CP-1.6E Seek resources to increase police presence in and around bike and walking paths and pedestrian areas, through means such as reintroducing bike patrols by the Vallejo Police Department and re-establishing police substations in key areas.

Action CP-1.6F Work with neighborhood watch groups to improve safety for bicyclists and pedestrians and to increase the use of active transportation.

Action CP-1.6G Develop a “safe routes for seniors” program in collaboration with seniors’ organizations.

URBAN GREENING AND COMMUNITY HEALTH
There is a recognized relationship between well-designed urban green space and physical and mental health. The most livable cities have important urban green spaces that offer opportunities for formal and informal recreation as well as benefits for public health and the environment. Collaboration will be fundamental to successful urban greening in Vallejo, including cooperation with the Greater Vallejo Recreation District (GVRD), Solano Resource Conservation District and other planning, implementing, and funding partners.

COMMUNITY & PEOPLE 3-7
POLICY CP-1.7 Green Space. Promote community physical and mental health through provision and preservation of the urban
forest, natural areas, and “green” infrastructure (i.e. best practices water management).

Action CP-1.7A Seek funding to develop and implement an Urban Greening Plan that identifies needs, opportunities, projects, and potential funding, in collaboration with community partners.

Action CP-1.7B Regularly maintain the health of City street trees.

Action CP-1.7C Support efforts by stewardship agencies to preserve wetland and open space areas.

Action CP-1.7D Work with partners, including Solano Public Health, universities, and other groups to develop and maintain maps that illustrate access to green spaces within Vallejo neighborhoods.

Action CP-1.7E Continue to implement green infrastructure practices that draw upon natural processes to address storm water drainage and flood control and potentially add to Vallejo’s network of green spaces.

SOCIAL FACTORS AFFECTING HEALTH
The connections between a host of social factors, such as education and employment, and individual well-being are well established, and the strengthening of such factors is an important theme throughout the General Plan. One cornerstone of a healthy community is youth that successfully complete and even enjoy secondary education.

Recognizing and growing partnerships between educators, employers, social service providers, the City, and community organizations will be critical to promoting community health by addressing intertwined social factors.

POLICY CP-1.8 Strong Schools, Engaged Students and Families. Support efforts by schools to reduce the dropout rate in
recognition that education is a predictor of health.

Action CP-1.8A Support the VCUSD, Solano Community College, other community partners, and parents helping keep students in and graduate from school.

TOBACCO AND ALCOHOL
Tobacco use and alcohol abuse can have significant effects on the community, well beyond the harm they can cause directly to users. Reasonably controlling the effects and availability of these potentially harmful substances can greatly improve the quality of life citywide through policies and actions to reduce exposure to second-hand smoke and third-hand smoke (residual nicotine and other chemicals left on indoor surfaces reacting with common indoor air pollutants) and regulate tobacco and alcohol sales. 3-8 Vallejo General Plan 2040
Vallejo has the benefit of a strong network of existing partners working on tobacco and alcohol related matters, including Solano Public Health and non-profits in the community.

POLICY CP-1.9 Secondhand Smoke. Limit exposure to secondhand smoke, including from electronic smoking devices.

Action CP-1.9A Work with GVRD and Solano Public Health to expand the City's existing ordinance prohibiting smoking in its parks to: 1) include electronic smoking devices; and 2) apply it to transit stops and other public outdoor spaces.

Action CP-1.9B Work with Solano Public Health and other community partners to consider adopting an ordinance regulating smoking in new and existing multi-family units.

POLICY CP-1.10 Tobacco Sales and Children. Protect children by restricting the location of tobacco sales.

Action CP-1.10A Amend City regulations to require use permit review to consider the potential negative impacts of uses proposing to sell tobacco in proximity to schools and other youth-serving facilities, and in areas with existing tobacco retailers.

Action CP-1.10B Consider establishing an annual fee on tobacco retailers to fund a regular monitoring program to increase compliance with tobacco related laws.

POLICY CP-1.11 Responsible Alcohol Sales. Promote responsible alcohol sales through regulation and education.

Action CP-1.11A Consider establishing an annual fee on alcohol retailers to fund a regular monitoring program to increase compliance with alcohol sale laws.

Action CP-1.11B Continue to support responsible beverage service training through the California Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control.

Action CP-1.11C Consider amending City regulations to limit the number and density of convenience stores selling alcohol, including those within close proximity to one another and to schools and other youth-serving facilities.

HEALTHY ENVIRONMENT
As basic and critical as they are to healthy living, clean water and air are not guaranteed in any community. Improving air and water quality requires constant vigilance, significant expenditures, and often changes in behavior, especially as the impacts of human activities become more pervasive. A healthy environment is especially important, when we consider that climate change impacts tend to disproportionately affect more vulnerable populations such as the elderly and already ill populations. Higher temperatures, wildfires and droughts often increase air contaminants and related respiratory diseases.

COMMUNITY & PEOPLE 3-9
POLICY CP-1.12 Clean Air. Protect the community from harmful levels of air pollution.

Action CP-1.12A Convert the City fleet of street sweepers and other large-scale equipment from fossil fuel to alternative fuel types, and work with service providers to convert refuse and recycling trucks to alternative fuels, in conformance with Bay Area Air Quality Management District (BAAQMD) requirements for fleets.

Action CP-1.12B Update City regulations to set BAAQMD-recommended limits for particulate emissions from construction, demolition, debris hauling, and utility maintenance.

Action CP-1.12C Provide information regarding advances in air-quality protection measures to schools, homeowners, and operators of “sensitive receptors” such as senior and child care facilities.

Action CP-1.12D Periodically review and update City regulations to comply with changes in State law and BAAQMD Guidelines pertaining to coal or wood-burning devices.

Action CP-1.12E Periodically review the Building Code for consistency with the latest California Green Building Standards Code, and assess the need for updates to require new construction and remodels to employ best practices and materials to reduce emissions, both during and after construction.

Action CP-1.12F Update City regulations to prohibit grading operations when wind speeds (as instantaneous gusts) exceed 25 miles per hour, or require the use of water trucks to wet soil.

POLICY CP-1.13 Clean Water. Provide a safe, adequate water supply citywide.

Action CP-1.13A Periodically assess the need to repair or replace aging water supply infrastructure, and incorporate upgrades and
improvements into the Capital Improvement Program as
needed.

Action CP-1.13B Develop a plan to upgrade and finance water infrastructure improvements.

Action CP-1.13C Maintain a water rate structure that adequately funds water infrastructure maintenance and replacement projects as
required by federal, State, and local regulations.

Action CP-1.13D Continue to provide information on water conservation best practices to residents and businesses in Vallejo.

Action CP-1.13E Support the efforts of federal, State, regional, and local agencies to clean up impaired water bodies in Vallejo.

POLICY CP-1.14 Healthy Economic Development. Consider healthy community criteria and environmental health standards
in efforts to attract new businesses to Vallejo.

Action CP-1.14A Consider developing and adopting a “healthy development checklist” to evaluate potential new development under
appropriate criteria, which might include exposure to harmful levels of air pollution, effects on the noise environment, relationship to the active transportation network and the safety of that network, and effects on social cohesion.
3-10 Vallejo General Plan 2040
POLICY CP-1.15 Water Quality. Maintain and improve water quality in a way that provides public and environmental health
benefits.

Action CP-1.15A Require new development to incorporate site design, source control, and treatment measures to keep pollutants out of stormwater during construction and operational phases,
consistent with City of Vallejo Municipal Ordinance.

Action CP-1.15B Encourage new development to incorporate low impact development (LID) strategies, such as rain gardens, filter strips, swales, and other natural drainage strategies, to the greatest extent feasible, in order to reduce stormwater runoff levels, improve infiltration to replenish groundwater sources, reduce localized flooding, and reduce pollutants close to their source.

Action CP-1.15C Consult with appropriate regional, State, and federal agencies to monitor water quality and address local sources of
groundwater and soil contamination, including possible
underground storage tanks, septic tanks, and industrial uses, as necessary, to achieve State and federal water quality standards.

Action CP-1.15D Require new development to connect to the Vallejo Sanitation and Flood Control District sewer system for treatment of wastewater rather than septic systems, which are not allowed.

GOAL CP-2
Safe City: Protect personal
safety in Vallejo’s neighborhoods
and public spaces.

Public safety and emergency response are top priorities in Vallejo. The City provides law enforcement, fire protection, and emergency medical services to all areas of Vallejo and to the incorporated Solano County enclaves. The location of public safety facilities is shown on Map CP-1.

LAW ENFORCEMENTAND CRIME PREVENTION
The Vallejo Police Department (VPD) provides professional law enforcement services that enhance, protect, and promote the quality of life for local residents, businesses and visitors. VPD is committed to community policing and works in partnership with more than 200 active Neighborhood Watch groups, providing public information and training services to support citizen participation in crime prevention.

Crime rates in Vallejo have at times exceeded Bay Area and California averages, with property crimes such as burglary, larceny, and robbery accounting for the majority of occurrences. To fight crime and improve public safety, VPD is increasingly making use of technology, with a computer-aided dispatch and records management system that allows rapid access to crime data, as well digital cameras and automated license plate readers in patrol cars. VPD has also successfully used special tactical initiatives to target “

high crime areas. As Vallejo grows in the coming years, the challenge will be to remain alert and responsive to changes that influence crime prevention efforts.

Design of the built environment can also help prevent crime, reduce the fear of crime, and improve the quality of life in urban areas. Research has shown that the most effective deterrent to criminal activity is the risk of being caught, and design of public spaces that places more eyes on the street and limits access points can create safer environments. Strategies for Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design (CPTED) include locating windows to overlook sidewalks and parking lots, increasing pedestrian and bicycle traffic, and selectively installing fencing, landscaping, or lighting to control access. Well-maintained buildings and grounds also signal alert, active owners and can deter criminal activity.

POLICY CP-2.1 Police Services. Provide responsive, efficient, and effective police services that promote a high level of
public safety.

Action CP-2.1A Maintain community engagement initiatives and strengthen partnerships with community members and neighborhood
groups to combat crime, improve public safety, and facilitate communication regarding law enforcement needs.

Action CP-2.1B Use crime statistics and other data to establish priorities and guide crime prevention and response programs.

Action CP-2.1C Continue to leverage and expand the use of technology to enhance efficiency and effectiveness of law enforcement and promote officer and community safety.

Action CP-2.1D Work towards a geographic policing model while continuing to develop and implement tactical initiatives to fight crime and improve public safety.

Action CP-2.1E Periodically review response capabilities to determine potential need for additional law enforcement facilities, equipment, or personnel, and identify specific geographic areas requiring expanded services.

Action CP-2.1F Address the need for a new public safety facility site and building to replace the aging Police Department Facility through a feasibility study and seek out funding opportunities. Identify a suitable location centrally located within easy access to major thoroughfares and freeways.

COMMUNITY & PEOPLE 3-13
POLICY CP-2.2 Safer Urban Design. Improve public safety and reduce demand for police service through project design
enhancements in new development and public spaces.

Action CP-2.2A Continue to include the Police Department in the review of major new development plans and projects, particularly those related tobacco and alcohol establishments, to ensure that projects are designed and operated in a manner that minimizes the potential for criminal activity and maximizes the potential for responsive police services.

Action CP-2.2B Using CPTED principles, update City regulations to incorporate requirements for design of multi-family residences and public spaces that deter criminal activity in neighborhoods, streets, and public areas and promote opportunities for natural surveillance.

Action CP-2.2C Work with the GVRD to improve and maintain park facilities as safe places for community gathering.

Action CP-2.2D Work with GVRD and VCUSD to establish standards for site layout, lighting, and signage to deter criminal activity in and around parks, schools, and recreation sites.

FIRE PROTECTION
Overall, the risk of fire in Vallejo is typical of that in other primarily suburban California communities. Vallejo is comprised predominantly of low-density residential development, and the risk of structural fire associated with this building type is considered moderate. In areas of the city with higher concentrations of higher-density residential, commercial and industrial structures, taller buildings, and older structures, the risk of structural fire is higher. These areas are generally concentrated in the vicinity of Stations 21, 23, and 24 (see Map CP-1), and on Mare Island where some of the buildings of the former Naval Shipyard complex are at higher risk due to their age and condition. In general, Vallejo has experienced a relatively low level of fire loss, primarily as a result of newer construction, compliance with current fire and building codes, and early fire response.

The Vallejo Fire Department (VFD) currently meets response time goals in much of the city, where incidents are generally clustered in proximity to higher call-volume fire stations. Current staffing and equipment levels are able to provide an adequate number of firefighters for smaller fires and common medical or rescue situations, but resources can become strained when there are simultaneous calls for service. When major incidents occur, VFD must deploy all its resources and depend on mutual aid agreements with neighboring jurisdictions. In outlying areas of the city, steep terrain and a winding street network make maintaining response time goals more challenging. Mutual aid agreements help ensure adequate response times in the outlying areas.

VFD offers Community Emergency Response Team (CERT) training to residents and members of the business community to increase disaster awareness and emergency response capability. VFD also operates a volunteer fire cadet program for young people aged 15-21, providing mentoring and skills to local youth, and has taken some initial steps toward establishing a Reserve Firefighter Program, designed to give on-thejob experience to individuals seeking to become career firefighters while augmenting engine company personnel.

POLICY CP-2.3 Fire Prevention and Response Services. Ensure the provision of fire prevention and emergency response
services that minimize fire risks and protect life and
property.
3-14 Vallejo General Plan 2040
Action CP-2.3A Periodically review response times to gauge the need for additional VFD facilities, equipment, and personnel, and identify specific geographic areas of the city that may not be adequately served.

Action CP-2.3B Expand training programs for local residents and business owners.

Action CP-2.3C Establish a VFD volunteer/reserve firefighter program.

Action CP-2.3D Continue to maintain mutual aid agreements that allow for supplemental aid from other police and fire departments in the event of emergencies.

Action CP-2.3E Work with property owners and public agencies to ensure that plant growth is managed to minimize fire danger.

GOAL CP-3
Strong Community Bonds:

Build strong connections
between residents, businesses,
community groups, and City
officials.

Building bonds between community members requires comfortable places to meet and meaningful activities to do together. Relationships grow from the everyday interactions we have with our neighbors – at school picking up the kids, relaxing in the park, taking a class, or enjoying a street fair. These relationships also help create a sense of belonging and enhance the quality of life in the community.

SCHOOLS AND LEARNING
Good schools are the building blocks of a vibrant, healthy community. With good schools, a community becomes a great place to raise a family, and a good education system not only attracts new residents but also encourages young people to stay in the community as they start their own families. Good schools can drive economic development, as businesses are attracted to communities with good schools where their employees will want to raise families.

A school can also be the center of community life, not just for families with children, but for everyone. State regulations governing the siting of new schools encourage locations within walking distance of homes and adjacent to parks, playgrounds, and sports facilities. This easy accessibility makes school sites excellent for co-locating a variety of other facilities as well, including post offices, and healthcare and social services. Some design concepts locate classrooms near or even inside senior centers and nursing homes so that children and seniors share time, spaces, and activities. Be yond mere cost savings, this concept has produced remarkable results, including lower medication levels for seniors and improved reading skills for children.

Colleges and universities, and libraries can also play an important role in the life of the community. Aside from the direct contributions they make to the local economy as large employers, post-secondary educational institutions can provide critical workforce development and training through partnerships with local businesses and community groups. In addition, libraries offer numerous educational programming for preschool to adults, including English as a Second Language (ESL) and other literacy programs. “
COMMUNITY & PEOPLE 3-15
Publicly funded primary and secondary education in Vallejo is provided by the Vallejo City Unified School District (VCUSD). Additionally, there are a number of private, predominantly parochial schools that offer primary and secondary education in the community. Post-secondary education in Vallejo is offered at the California State University Maritime Academy, Solano Community College, and Touro University. Local educational institutions are important partners for community building in Vallejo. In addition, the Solano County Library (SCL) provides a robust literacy program and maintains two branch locations in Vallejo. Finally, alliances such as the Vallejo Education and Business Alliance (VEBA) are working to improve student success.

POLICY CP-3.1 High Quality Education. Foster high quality schools that enhance civic pride.

Action CP-3.1A Continue to support and participate in forums for cross-sector coordination on continuously improving education and student success, such as the VEBA and SCL.

Action CP-3.1B Engage public, private, and non-profit stakeholders, including the SCL, in developing and implementing a "cradle-to-career" strategy for Vallejo.

Action CP-3.1C Collaborate with VCUSD to address issues such as facility upgrades, classroom capacity, truancy, graduation rates, and school violence.

Action CP-3.1D Work with charter schools, private schools, parochial schools, and preschools to assess needs for a range of high-quality educational opportunities in the community.

POLICY CP-3.2 Neighborhood Focal Points. Promote school facilities that serve as neighborhood focal points where residents and families come together.

Action CP-3.2A Work with VCUSD, private schools, public agencies, and community service providers to identify opportunities to colocate community facilities with schools, so that multiple services may be delivered from a single location.

Action CP-3.2B Support local arts groups, VCUSD, GVRD, and community organizations in developing and delivering art and cultural educational offerings and activities for the entire community.

Action CP-3.2C Update City regulations to allow co-location of classrooms near or even inside senior centers, assisted living facilities, and nursing homes.
3-16 Vallejo General Plan 2040
POLICY CP-3.3 Lifelong Learning. Promote lifelong learning opportunities throughout the community for Vallejoans
of all ages and abilities.

Action CP-3.3A Work with community organizations and the SCL to establish a language resource center to provide services such as English language learning programs for non-native speakers,
interpretation, and translation services, and assistance in accessing community services and programs.

Action CP-3.3B Support the SCL and community groups in efforts to increase community access to library resources, such as small free libraries.

Action CP-3.3C Work with the SCL and community groups to support publicly accessible computers, internet service, and technology training assistance at locations around Vallejo that benefit the greatest number of people.

PARKS AS GATHERING PLACES
Public parks provide space for gathering and recreation throughout the community.

Opportunities for exercise and social activities, such as dog-walking, are free and particularly valuable for children and seniors. Beyond this, public parks are places where people interact and build bonds—parents meet as their kids play, and kids make new friends. Parks can also be a rallying place for the community, where people come together on a range of projects, from picking up trash, to planting flowers, to building play structures, and even to raising funds for new amenities. In addition to community building, urban parks can contribute to youth development through programming that supports leadership and workforce training. For example, participants in a Youth Garden program learn such skills as beekeeping, rose maintenance, and low-flow watering. As they become proficient, the teenagers are promoted to help supervise or teach in the classes.

Vallejo residents have access to an abundance of parks and open space within the greater Vallejo region, as described in the Natural and Built Environment (NBE) chapter of this Plan. Parks and open space located within the city limit are generally operated by The Greater Vallejo Recreation District (GVRD) on land either owned by the City or by the GVRD, an independent special services district supported by local property tax revenues. Additionally, there is some parkland on Mare Island and along the waterfront owned by the City. The location of Vallejo parks and schools is shown on Map CP-2.

Vallejo parks are classified as follows, based on size and the type of recreational use offered:
• Mini Parks – small, limited use sites generally less than 1 acre in size. Located in more densely built areas, they vary from small greens, with open grass areas, children's playgrounds, or small picnic spaces, to small squares and plazas. • Neighborhood Parks – mid-sized parks intended to serve nearby residents living within a ½-mile radius. They are primarily designed for informal, unsupervised recreational activities and typically feature facilities such as children’s playgrounds, picnic areas, pathways, open grass areas for passive use, outdoor basketball courts, and non-lighted, multi-use ball fields. Neighborhood parks generally range from 4 to 10 acres in size, although GVRD operates several smaller neighborhood parks. • Community Parks – larger facilities intended to serve residents living within a 1- to 2-mile radius. They are generally between 10 and 70 acres in size and designed with a sports field or similar facility that provides active and structured recreation opportunities as the central focus, although they can also provide opportunities for passive recreation. Community parks attract people from a wider geographic area than neighborhood or mini parks and require ancillary facilities such as parking, COMMUNITY & PEOPLE 3-17
lighted sports fields, and restrooms. A community park can also function as a neighborhood park for nearby residential areas.
• Special Use Parks – facilities designed for specialized recreational activities. In Vallejo, these include the Wardlaw Skate/BMX Park and Children's Wonderland. • Linear Parks – open space or landscape features such as creek corridors, canals, trail alignments, and abandoned railroad rights-of-way. They link community facilities and provide passive recreational opportunities such as walking, jogging, and bicycling. They typically feature trails, landscaped or natural areas, viewpoints, and seating areas. Neighborhood park facilities may be incorporated when space is available.
• Natural Open Space – large, undeveloped properties left primarily in their natural state with recreation as a secondary use. This type of park often includes wetlands, steep hillsides, stream and creek corridors, and environmentally sensitive lands containing wildlife habitat or unique and/or endangered plant species. Typically managed by a governmental agency, natural open space may or may not offer full public access.

The City has adopted a standard of 4.25 acres of parkland per 1,000 residents for planning purposes and requires developers to provide parkland or pay impact fees of equivalent value when new homes are approved. Table CP-2 shows an inventory of Vallejo parks, together with existing acreage. With 921.17 acres of parks and open space within the city limit, Vallejo is meeting its parkland standard.

The distribution of parkland throughout the community is relatively balanced. As shown on Map CP-3, most residents live within a half-mile walk of a park or school facility. GVRD has identified underserved neighborhoods and will pursue park development to address those needs as funding is available in the future. Community engagement and partnership is key to achieving the vision of this Plan; the following policies and actions focus on enhancing Vallejo's parks and recreational amenities and increasing use by the community.

POLICY CP-3.4 Parks. Plan for and provide parkland and facilities to support Vallejo's recreational needs.

Action CP-3.4A Maintain a standard of 4.25 acres of parkland per thousand residents and continue to require that new residential
development make a fair share contribution to future parks development.

Action CP-3.4B Work with GVRD, VSFCD, and other community partners to identify potential sites for new parks, playgrounds, recreation centers, sports fields, skate parks, and other recreational facilities in underserved areas as well as in areas where population growth is anticipated. Collaborate to explore funding mechanisms for acquisition and maintenance of new parks and facilities.

POLICY CP-3.9 Celebrate Vallejo. Promote community events, festivals, and public art installations that highlight Vallejo's history, identity, and diversity while celebrating the interests of Vallejo residents and attracting visitors.

Action CP-3.9A Support community festivals and events that promote diversity and build connections in the community, such as the Mad Hatter Festival, National Night Out, farmers markets, treeplanting events, arts and cultural gatherings, and neighborhood clean-up days.

Action CP-3.9B Work with community groups and local businesses to identify public and private spaces, such as civic plazas and shopping malls that may be used for cultural awareness activities such as festivals, art exhibitions, and poetry presentations.

GOAL CP-4
Active, Participatory
Community: Encourage the
active participation of residents
and local businesses in
civic life.

The active participation of the community in local government brings diverse viewpoints and values into the decision-making process and helps ensure that City actions benefit the broadest range of people possible. Inclusive, participatory processes lead to better informed solutions and build mutual understanding and trust between local government officials and the public they serve.

OPEN GOVERNMENT
The City is committed to open government and has continually expanded the ways in which community members can participate in local government. The City has a robust online forum for civic engagement, and, in 2012, Vallejo made history by becoming the first U.S. municipality to approve a community-wide participatory budgeting process that engages all residents in deciding how to spend a portion of the City budget. The City also encourages the public to participate in government affairs.

Citizens serve on the City Council and 15 different boards and commissions, as well as a number of standing and ad hoc committees.
“
3-28 Vallejo General Plan 2040
POLICY CP-4.1 Inclusive Decision-Making. Encourage inclusive, participatory City processes that emphasize the
collaborative exchange of ideas by all segments of the
community.

Action CP-4.1A Continue to offer open, interactive processes for decisionmaking.

Action CP-4.1B Support neighborhood and community organizations in communicating local priorities and concerns to the City.

Action CP-4.1C Collaborate with other public agencies to promote and facilitate inclusive, participatory decision-making processes.

POLICY CP-4.2 Broad Participation. Increase public participation by all segments of the community in City governance.

Action CP-4.2A Hold public meetings at neighborhood gathering places when feasible.

Action CP-4.2B Use a variety of methods to invite public participation, including door hangers, flyers, email blasts, social media, newsletters, the City website, and community networks.

Action CP-4.2C Include youth representatives in City-sponsored activities and organizations.

Action CP-4.2D Continue to implement, evaluate, and update the City of Vallejo Communications Plan.

COMMUNITY & PEOPLE 3-29
POLICY CP-4.3 Informed Discussion. Provide decision-makers, project applicants, and residents with information about
planning policies and regulations as well as advance
notice of upcoming changes, projects or issues.

Action CP-4.3A Continue and expand the use of technology to provide public information and obtain input from community members.

ACTIVE CIVIL SOCIETY
With a large faith-based community and many active neighborhood associations, Vallejo has a vibrant civil society. In the downtown area, property and business owners have formed the Central Core Restoration Corporation (CCRC) that manages the popular downtown farmers market and provides a range of other services. Throughout the city, local businesses are active in multiple chambers of commerce, and residents also offer their time and skills as volunteers. Collaboration in and among these networks will help realize the community's vision for the future of Vallejo.

POLICY CP-4.4 Foster Collaboration. Foster collaboration between the City, educational institutions, the business community, social service providers, community organizations, and
grassroots neighborhood and civic groups.

Action CP-4.4A When feasible, allocate City staff time and resources to volunteer-initiated projects whose activities and actions will help achieve City goals that otherwise could not be accomplished.

Action CP-4.4B Establish a healthy community consortium, including Solano Public Health and other government agencies, foundations, non-profit and other community and faith-based groups,
educational institutions, and businesses to address and promote the community health and wellness topics presented in this Plan.

POLICY CP-4.5 Volunteering. Encourage and support residents as volunteers to supplement City and agency staff in the
delivery of community services, including recreation,
youth, and senior programs.

Action CP-4.5A Partner with community organizations and faith-based groups to establish a volunteer program that expands services to seniors.

Action CP-4.5B Partner with community organizations, parent teacher associations, and workforce development organizations to establish volunteer programs that match residents with
volunteers who can provide mentoring and relevant, real-world training to youth and adults.

Action CP-4.5C Work with advocacy groups to encourage individuals from underrepresented minority populations to represent their communities in civic life, including on City boards and commissions.
3-30 Vallejo General Plan 2040
GOAL CP-5
Caring, Equitable
Community: Promote a culture
of compassion, dignity, and
fairness that celebrates Vallejo's
diversity.

A wide range of community services is available to Vallejo residents, through City and County sponsored initiatives, as well as the efforts of local non-profit groups. The City uses federal Community Development Block Grants (CDBG) to support service providers and a variety of activities for persons of lower income or with special needs.

The County operates a Primary Care Clinic in Vallejo, providing medical care to residents, in addition to a range of other services such as nutrition counseling and public health nurse home visits for mothers and babies. These services are complemented by a network of non-profit groups providing additional services for youth, families, seniors, and the homeless.

COMMUNITY SERVICES
With a large proportion of Vallejoans moving into their golden years, the need for medical care and social services in the community continues to grow. Community services should be delivered in ways that allow seniors to "age in place," living as independently as possible alongside other community members in an environment suited to people at all stages of life.

In Vallejo, low-income families and youth also have specific needs, particularly in neighborhoods of the city where as many as one in four residents lives below the federal poverty line. Many local non-profit groups and faith-based organizations actively address the needs of this population, including Fighting Back Partnership, which operates family resource centers in Vallejo that offer a range of services and activities aimed at promoting healthy families and developing capacity to become involved members of the community.

POLICY CP-5.1 Child and Senior Care Facilities. Encourage the development of reasonably priced childcare and senior
care facilities and services in a variety of settings,
including in residential neighborhoods and near work
sites, to meet the needs of Vallejo residents and
employees.

Action CP-5.1A Work with regulators, service providers, and employers to ensure the provision of safe, affordable, high-quality childcare services.

Action CP-5.1B Provide incentives such as density bonuses to residential and non-residential developers to encourage space for childcare and senior care facilities in new development.

Action CP-5.1C Support local churches and religious institutions in providing services and facilities for children and seniors.
“
COMMUNITY & PEOPLE 3-31
POLICY CP-5.2 Lifelong Care. Support community members at all stages of life with programs to improve quality of life.

Action CP-5.2A Coordinate with local and regional agencies and community organizations to address the needs of lower income and
unhoused persons, including shelter, food, clothing, health care, mental health, and transportation.

Action CP-5.2B Continue to support local community service agencies and organizations in the provision of social services to Vallejoans in need, including special needs services that foster independence for older adults, people with disabilities, and those facing physical or mental challenges.

Action CP-5.2C Provide information about shelter and food assistance programs via the range of the City's communication tools.

Action CP-5.2D Coordinate with local and regional agencies and organizations to address the welfare of children, through such means as trauma-informed care for children, youth, and families involved with child welfare.

POLICY CP-5.3 Foster Respect. Promote a culture of inclusivity and understanding throughout the community.

Action CP-5.3A Support local community service agencies, organizations, and faith-based groups in providing and expanding programs that promote self-esteem, responsibility, and leadership, including programs aimed at youth.

Action CP-5.3B Consider establishing a volunteer community outreach coordinator to connect Vallejo residents to services offered by the City, Solano County, non-profit agencies, and other organizations.

DIVERSITY
Vallejo's rich cultural and ethnic diversity is an asset that offers fresh perspectives and alternative skills in all aspects of community life. Effective delivery of community services requires service providers who reflect the diversity of the population and understand how to serve people with different values, beliefs, and approaches.

NATURE AND BUILT ENVIRONMENT 4 Vallejo's local setting is a major asset for the community. The urbanized area of the city is ringed by important areas of natural open space, wetlands, and rolling grassland hills. Waterways, so integral to the character of the community, provide opportunities for scenic, recreational, and commercial enjoyment, and Vallejo's historic role as a State capital and a cradle of industry in northern California have left a legacy of valuable cultural heritage. Careful stewardship of all these resources is essential for a beautiful, thriving city. The focus of this chapter is on preserving and enhancing these assets and managing growth in a way that strengthens sense of place and builds local pride in identity. The chapter is organized around five key goals that represent the priorities of Vallejoans: Beautiful City, A Place Where People Want to Be, Pride in Identity, Iconic Waterfront, and Hazard Protection.

Aspects of resource stewardship and growth management are addressed in other chapters of the plan. Air quality, clean water, and access to green space are addressed in Chapter 3, Community & People. Restoration and revitalization of cultural and historic resources for tourism and economic development is addressed in Chapter 5, Economy, Education, and Training, along with City-led sustainability initiatives.

Chapter 6, Mobility, Transportation, and Connectivity addresses growth management by promoting transit-oriented development and eco-mobility. Where policies and actions in other chapters in the plan have co-benefits that will help achieve the goals of this chapter, connections with those chapters are highlighted and cross-referenced. 4-2 Vallejo General Plan 2040

GOALS, POLICIES, AND ACTIONS
GOAL NBE-1
Beautiful City: Preserve and
enhance the natural, historic, and
scenic resources that make
Vallejo special.

The natural and physical environment around us has a direct impact on mood and sense of well-being. Access to nature, whether outside the city or in urban green spaces, can have a calm, restorative impact, and well-designed buildings and public spaces can be inspiring. The following policies and actions are designed to enhance the natural and urban environment in Vallejo and the Planning Area.

NATURAL RESOURCES
Natural resources include not only the plants, trees, animals, fish, birds, and microorganisms present in the urban and natural environment around us, but also the water, soil, habitats, and ecosystems that make up the ecological community in which we live. The richer the diversity of life around us, the greater the opportunity for healthy living, economic development, and adaptive responses to new challenges such as climate change.

Several rare and sensitive groups of plants and animals, or "natural communities," exist in the open space lands in and around Vallejo. These include freshwater marsh, freshwater seeps and springs, riparian forest and woodland, saline emergent wetland, valley oak woodland, and native grasslands. The City collaborates with a variety of public agencies to manage and protect these and other natural resources in the Planning Area. Vallejo is participating in the ongoing effort to develop the Solano Multispecies Habitat Conservation Plan and Natural Community Conservation Plan (HCP/NCCP) for a 585,000-acre area of Solano and Yolo Counties that would address habitat conservation for a total of 36 species. The City also supports a number of ongoing and recently completed habitat restoration and conservation efforts in the vicinity of Vallejo, including the Napa Sonoma Marsh restoration Project, the Cullinan Ranch restoration project, and the Sears Point Wetland restoration project. “
NATURE & BUILT ENVIRONMENT 4-3
The Vallejo Sanitation & Flood Control District (VSFCD), the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA), the Regional Water Quality Control Board (RWQCB), Solano Land Trust, Solano County, and neighboring jurisdictions are all partners with Vallejo in protecting and restoring riparian habitat and in promoting water quality.

POLICY NBE-1.1 Natural Resources. Protect and enhance hillsides, waterways, wetlands, occurrences of special-status
species and sensitive natural communities, and aquatic
and important wildlife habitat through land use decisions that avoid and mitigate potential environmental impacts on these resources to the extent feasible.

Action NBE-1.1A Cooperate with federal, State, and local regulatory and stewardship agencies to promote the restoration and long-term sustainability of local natural resources, including wetlands and wildlife habitat at River Park.

Action NBE-1.1B Continue to participate in the implementation of regional habitat conservation and restoration programs, including the Solano Multispecies Habitat Conservation Plan and Natural Community Conservation Plan, and wetland restoration
occurring in the Napa/Sonoma Marshes.

Action NBE-1.1C Pursue habitat enhancement at South White Slough and River Park through mitigation banking and/or similar mechanisms, whereby developers contribute to the preservation,
enhancement, restoration, or creation of a wetland, stream, or habitat conservation areas, which could offset environmental impacts on other sites.

Action NBE-1.1D Evaluate, revise as needed, and implement the River Park Master Plan to restore, enhance, and preserve wetland and open space areas at River Park.

Action NBE-1.1E Protect the remaining woodlands and native tree resources, and require replacement plantings where native trees must be removed.

Action NBE-1.1F Require a biological assessment for new development proposed on sites that are determined to have some potential to contain sensitive biological and wetland resources. The assessment should be conducted by a qualified professional to determine the presence or absence of any sensitive resources, should evaluate potential adverse effects, and should define measures for protecting the resources in compliance with State and federal laws. Detailed surveys are not necessary in locations where past and existing development have eliminated natural habitat and the potential for presence of sensitive biological resources.

Action NBE-1.1G Avoid potential impacts on jurisdictional wetlands and other waters as part of new development to the maximum extent feasible. This should include streams and associated riparian habitat and coastal salt marsh habitat along the Vallejo shoreline. Where complete avoidance is not possible, require that appropriate authorizations be secured from State and federal jurisdictional agencies and that adequate replacement mitigation be provided to ensure there is no net loss in habitat acreage or values.
4-4 Vallejo General Plan 2040
POLICY NBE-1.2 Sensitive Resources. Ensure that adverse impacts on sensitive biological resources, including special-status species, sensitive natural communities, and wetlands are avoided and mitigated to the greatest extent feasible as development takes place.

Action NBE-1.2A Provide up-to-date information on best practices for sustainable management practices.

Action NBE-1.2B Update the City's Standard Specifications as needed to require the use of Bay-friendly and drought-tolerant native plant species.

Action NBE-1.2C Protect the nests of raptors and other birds when in active use, as required by State and federal regulations. As part of new development, avoid disturbance to and loss of bird nests in active use by scheduling vegetation removal and new
construction during the non-nesting season (September
through February) or by conducting a preconstruction survey by a qualified biologist to confirm nests are absent or to define appropriate buffers until any young have successfully fledged the nest.

Action NBE-1.2D Continue to require environmental review of development applications pursuant to CEQA to assess the potential impacts on native species and habitat diversity. Require adequate mitigation measures for ensuring the protection of sensitive resources and achieving “no net loss” of sensitive habitat acreage, values, and functions and encourage early
consultation with all trustee agencies and agencies with review authority pursuant to CEQA for projects in areas supporting special-status species, sensitive natural communities, or wetland that may be adversely affected by new development.

Action NBE-1.2E Collaborate with public agencies responsible for managing open space in and around Vallejo to control and reduce the spread of non-native, invasive plant and animal species on public open space lands.

POLICY NBE-1.3 Interpretive Facilities. Encourage the development of facilities that provide education about local
environmental resources and ecosystems.

Action NBE-1.3A Partner with public agencies to offer programs that foster local environmental awareness and encourage the protection of natural resources.

Action NBE-1.3B Work with landowners to facilitate assembly and retention of parcels of sufficient size to preserve valuable tidal marshes, seasonal marshes, managed wetlands and contiguous
grassland areas for the protection of aquatic and wildlife habitat.

Action NBE-1.3C Provide or encourage public access to natural resource areas where appropriate, to enhance environmental awareness as well as passive recreational opportunities.

NATURE & BUILT ENVIRONMENT 4-5
POLICY NBE-1.4 Waterway Restoration. Restore riparian corridors and waterways throughout the city.

Action NBE-1.4A Collaborate with GVRD, Vallejo Sanitation & Flood Control District (VSFCD), and other partners to evaluate creek
conditions and restoration opportunities, and to develop policies covering setbacks from creeks, damage prevention, stewardship, nuisance abatement, public access, and other community and environmental concerns.

Action NBE-1.4B Work with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA), Regional Water Quality Control Board (RWQCB), Solano
County, and neighboring jurisdictions in efforts to reduce pollution in local waterbodies.

Action NBE-1.4C Work with VSFCD and GVRD, as appropriate, to maintain Lake Chabot, Lake Dalwigk, and other detention basins for
stormwater management and for public recreational use.

SCENIC RESOURCES
Scenic views contribute to the character of the community and can be both sources of local pride and tourist attractions. Vallejo offers many panoramic views from hilltops and elevated roadways, including views of San Pablo Bay, Mare Island Strait, the waterfront, Sulphur Springs Mountain, the Vaca Mountains, White Slough, the Napa River Wetlands, Sky Valley, and the city itself. Additionally, State Route (SR) 37 within Vallejo from Highway 29 west is eligible for designation as a State Scenic Highway.

The City has established residential view district zoning regulations to preserve scenic views from some residential neighborhoods located on hills in Vallejo. Additional measures to protect important views and encourage attractive development within view from the freeways will help strength Vallejo's sense of place.

POLICY NBE-1.5 Scenic Vistas. Protect and improve scenic vistas, including views from Interstate 80 and State Route 37 in Vallejo.

Action NBE-1.5A Identify existing scenic vistas and update City regulations to specify requirements for protection of existing scenic vistas.

Action NBE-1.5B Update City regulations for development within view of freeways in Vallejo.

Action NBE-1.5C Continue to administer the residential view district regulations intended to preserve panoramic views of the surrounding natural and human-made environment from residential
neighborhoods located on hills.

OPEN SPACE
Natural open spaces provide an array of scenic, social, recreational, and environmental benefits. The area around Vallejo contains many large areas of protected open space, as shown on Map NBE-1. These green spaces and wetland areas help filter pollutants from the air and water, and wetlands offer natural flood protection with the capability to accommodate storm runoff.

Open space lands also contribute to local visual character and provide opportunities for physical exercise and environmental education.

Ensuring connections between natural habitat areas and enhancing movement corridors for wildlife helps sustains natural populations and allow for the continued

dispersal of native plant and animal species. Local governments throughout the Bay Area are working together to protect the network of natural open spaces in the region and preserve them for future generations. Vallejo partners with Solano Land Trust, the City of Fairfield, and the City of Benicia through the Tri-City and County Cooperative Plan for Agriculture and Open Space Preservation to manage an area that includes Eastern Swett Ranch, Lynch Canyon Open Space, and Vallejo Swett Open Space, which has been recognized by local government agencies as a place with high ecological values and ecosystem functions and has been designated as a Priority Conservation Area (PCA) by the Association of Bay Area Governments (ABAG).

POLICY NBE-1.6 Open Space. Conserve and enhance natural open space areas in and adjacent to Vallejo and its waterfront.

Action NBE-1.6A In collaboration with Solano Land Trust and North Bay partner jurisdictions, seek funding for implementation of conservation projects in the Tri-City and County Cooperative Planning Area.

Action NBE-1.6B Identify lands in Vallejo that provide connections for animals between open spaces and/or important habitat, and assist conservation agency efforts to acquire land and/or establish easements that facilitate wildlife movement.

Action NBE-1.6C In coastal wetland and marsh areas and along creeks, allow and provide amenities to support public recreational activities compatible with conservation of the natural environment, such as picnicking, hiking, and nature and wildlife educational opportunities.

URBAN GREENING
The urban forest is the collection of trees and plants along city streets, in private yards, and in parks and public spaces. This living canopy filters pollutants from the air, buffers gusting winds, reduces noise, and helps create pleasant, walkable neighborhoods. The urban forest can also help moderate temperature on hot, cold, or windy days, and shade from trees can also reduce the amount of energy needed to cool homes in the summer. Vallejo's urban forest is maintained by the Public Works Department and by individual property owners and neighborhood groups. The City of Vallejo Standards Specifications outlines requirements for planting and landscaping in all new singlefamily, multi-family, and commercial developments. 4-8 Vallejo General Plan 2040
Green infrastructure refers to the use of plants and soils to absorb stormwater and filter pollutants before runoff is directed into the storm drain system. As a result, green infrastructure reduces the capacity needed in pipes and reduces pollution levels in stormwater runoff, offering cost savings and environmental benefits.

POLICY NBE-1.7 Green Infrastructure. Encourage the installation of green infrastructure, including tools such as permeable
pavement, rain gardens, constructed wetlands, grassy
swales, rain barrels and cisterns, and green roofs, to treat stormwater, attenuate floods, increase groundwater
recharge, and reduce urban heat islands.

Action NBE-1.7A Continue to administer urban greening requirements to help extend the life of public improvements such as curbs, gutters, and sidewalks, and to help ensure that trees removed due to age, health, or potential to damage property are replaced in kind with new trees that are appropriate for their locations.

POLICY NBE-1.8 Urban Forest. Encourage planting of street trees and landscaping to beautify the city, encourage walking and biking, and create a stronger sense of identity.

Action NBE-1.8A Support community efforts that involve tree planting, tree care, and the stewardship of public space beyond what City resources can provide.

Action NBE-1.8B Update the Tree Ordinance, including requirements for preservation of trees of a minimum size.

Action NBE-1.8C Develop a Comprehensive Tree Management Program to ensure appropriate protection for urban forest resources.

CULTURAL AND HISTORIC RESOURCES
Cultural resources are buildings, objects, features, structures, or locations with historic or cultural value. Cultural resources typically include: buildings or structures that are associated with an event or person that have contributed to the shaping or development of the city; objects, such as Native American artifacts discovered at a particular location or area of the city; or an archaeological, geological, or paleontological artifact, such as fossils.

Early indigenous inhabitants of the region around Vallejo, including the Patwin and Carquin peoples, settled in permanent villages where they lived year-round, with seasonal satellite camps close to the resources they needed at certain times of the year. Sites were often located near fresh water sources where plant and animal life was abundant. There are confirmed Native American sites located in the rock outcrops in the hills above Blue Rock Springs Park and at Glen Cove. There are no recorded fossil localities within the Planning Area.

NATURE & BUILT ENVIRONMENT 4-9
As an early State capital and an important maritime port in the 19th Century, Vallejo also has a wealth of historic resources. Vallejo boasts three historic districts listed on the National Register of Historic Places—Mare Island Naval Shipyard, comprised of approximately 500+ contributing properties; Architectural Heritage District, comprised of 372 properties; and the Saint Vincent's Hill Historic District, comprising 543 contributing properties. In addition to historic districts listed on the National Register, Mare Island contains a National Historic Landmark District. The City also recognizes 75 City landmarks, 49 of them part of the Mare Island Naval Shipyard. Vallejo's historic sites and districts are shown on Map NBE-2.

Downtown Vallejo has seven buildings listed as local landmarks, including one building on the National Register and two on the State of California register. A preliminary Historic Resources Assessment conducted for the Downtown Specific Plan identified several buildings that have the potential either to be individually significant or to contribute to a historic district, which must be retained and celebrated as part of the Downtown/Waterfront.

The shoreline and waterways of the City of Vallejo are also part of the Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta, a region where natural, cultural, historical, and recreational resources combine to form a cohesive landscape. The Delta and its resources reflect the region's diverse heritage.

POLICY NBE-1.9 Cultural Resources. Protect and preserve archaeological, historic, and other cultural resources.

Action NBE-1.9A Continue to require that land use activities comply with State requirements and follow best practices to ensure that cultural resources are not impacted and that appropriate agencies and technical experts are involved in the evaluation and protection of resources and sites.

Action NBE-1.9B Maintain a dialogue with local Native American groups regarding sensitive cultural resources in Vallejo.

Action NBE-1.9C Support protection and formal designation of the SacramentoSan Joaquin Delta region.

POLICY NBE-1.10 Historic Resources. Encourage the protection, rehabilitation, and reuse of historic buildings and
structures.

Action NBE-1.10A Seek funding to update the City's historic resources inventory.

Action NBE-1.10B Require the identification and protection of all on-site historic resources in conjunction with any proposed development, in compliance with all applicable City provisions (including the Downtown Specific Plan Historical Resource Assessment) and State and federal guidelines for the treatment of historic properties.

Action NBE-1.12B In collaboration with local historic preservation organizations, continue the annual preservation awards program to recognize property owners for completing appropriate rehabilitation and/or restoration of historic properties.

COMMUNITY STANDARDS
Well-maintained properties send a signal that someone cares about them, and they help to deter nuisance activities and crime. The City provides services to residents and business that help maintain community standards. The SeeClickFix service allows community members to report maintenance issues and code violations directly to City staff via a smartphone app. Through the Neighborhood Law Program, City staff from several departments work proactively with property owners to eliminate blight and nuisance conditions.
4-12 Vallejo General Plan 2040
POLICY NBE-1.13 Community Preservation. Encourage high standards of property maintenance and rapid abatement of
conditions contributing to blight.

Action NBE-1.13A Update City regulations, adequately staff and fund, and increase enforcement as needed to require adequate structure and yard upkeep, increase penalties for illegal dumping and graffiti, and prohibit inappropriate outdoor storage (including non-operating vehicles).

Action NBE-1.13B Support efforts by homeowners associations, neighborhood groups, and civic organizations to abate nuisances and improve the appearance of the community.

Action NBE-1.13C Conduct regular inspections to ensure that multi-family properties comply with City building, sanitation, property maintenance, and safety codes.

RESOURCE CONSERVATION
Repeated drought years in California have highlighted the need for emergency water conservation measures. Prohibitions on unnecessary water use and limitations designed to help minimize water waste comprise one means of protecting this precious resource, while creating the option of using reclaimed (or “recycled”) water offers another. Simple “greywater” systems that reuse water from bathroom sinks, showers, bathtubs, and washing machines can provide irrigation water for some home garden needs. Additionally, in conjunction with the Solano County Water Agency, the City offers cash rebates to water customers who purchase and install water efficient home appliances and equipment.

Grants and incentives are also available to help property owners finance energy efficient, renewable energy, and water saving improvements, and the City provides information about these options to the community. The City also encourages solid waste reduction, partnering with non-profit groups to promote backyard composting, and regulates construction and demolition debris.

POLICY NBE-1.14 Water Conservation. Promote water conservation through a range of proactive City efforts.

Action NBE-1.14A Continue the Community-wide Water Conservation Program, including free residential water use surveys and audits, and water-use efficiency education in local schools.

Action NBE-1.14B Continue to provide water customers with information on conservation techniques, services, devices, and rebates (including greywater use), including online and through inperson community outreach.

Action NBE-1.14C Update the Green Building Standards Code to require the use of low flow plumbing fixtures, low volume irrigation systems, and drought-tolerant plant palettes.

POLICY NBE-1.15 Energy Efficiency. Support measures to reduce energy consumption and increase energy efficiency in
residential, commercial, industrial, and public buildings.

Action NBE-1.15A Connect businesses and residents with voluntary programs that provide free or low-cost energy efficiency audits, retrofit installations, rebates, financing and contractors.

NATURE & BUILT ENVIRONMENT 4-13
Action NBE-1.15B Participate in regional energy efficiency financing programs such as low-interest revolving loan funds, the California Comprehensive Residential Building Retrofit Program, California First, and the Property Assessed Clean Energy (PACE) program that enable Vallejo property owners to obtain low-interest financing for energy improvements.

Action NBE-1.15C Consider creating a Residential Energy Conservation Ordinance (RECO) and Commercial Energy Conservation Ordinance
(CECO) to require point-of-sale energy audits and retrofits for all buildings that do not meet minimum energy efficiency requirements.

POLICY NBE-1.16 Solid Waste Reduction. Promote reduction of the production of solid waste throughout Vallejo.

Action NBE-1.16A Continue to update the City’s Construction/Demolition Waste Reuse and Recycling Ordinance as higher diversion rates become feasible, necessary, or required.

Action NBE-1.16B As funding allows, provide recycling receptacles in parks and public spaces, in addition to trash receptacles.

Action NBE-1.16C Continue to partner with CalRecycle and VALCORE Community Recycling to offer and promote backyard composting bins and free composting classes to Vallejo residents and to disseminate information about composting on the City's website.

Action NBE-2.6D Study the feasibility of offering incentives for development that provides affordable opportunities for housing and studio spaces for artists and creative workers in the Downtown/Waterfront District.
4-16 Vallejo General Plan 2040

GROWTH MANAGEMENT
Attracting more residents, businesses, and visitors to Vallejo requires strategic planning. Growth management refers to ways to ensure that adequate services and infrastructure will be available to serve increased demand, and that quality of life will be enhanced in the community. Locating jobs and housing near transit is one strategy for minimizing impacts on the roadway network. Balancing the number of jobs and housing units in the community can also ease the burden on the transportation system. As growth takes place, regularly monitoring the progress of the General Plan actions will help ensure that benefits are shared communitywide and that impacts can be mitigated.

POLICY NBE-2.7 Jobs-Housing Balance. Match the levels of employment and housing opportunities locally.

Action NBE-2.7A Update City regulations to ensure housing opportunities in close proximity to employment centers and transit, including near the Ferry Terminal and Vallejo Transit Station.

POLICY NBE-2.8 Infill Development. Promote infill development targets vacant and underutilized sites for community-desired
and enhancing uses that is compatible with surrounding
uses.

Action NBE-2.8A Identify sites suitable for redevelopment; work with property owners to promote economically feasible and communitydesired uses that enhance and are compatible with the existing urban fabric.

POLICY NBE-2.9 Public Service Provision. Ensure that private development provides sufficient funding for
infrastructure and public services to support the
development.

Action NBE-2.9A Require fiscal impact analyses, as appropriate, for development proposals in order to evaluate public facility needs and costs, and the revenue likely to be generated by that development.

Action NBE-2.9B Continue to facilitate establishment of assessment districts to finance and maintain public facility improvements.

Action NBE-2.9C Maintain and update a list of potential, proposed, and approved projects in the city, and report annually the number of housing units and the amount of non-residential
development constructed or rehabilitated.

NATURE & BUILT ENVIRONMENT 4-17
Action NBE-2.9D Periodically update nexus studies and adjust development impact fees as may be needed to ensure that there is sufficient funding for the infrastructure and public services needed to support growth.

Action NBE-2.9E Engage the Vallejo City Unified School District (VCUSD) in the review of major new residential development projects to ensure that adequate school facilities are or will be available to accommodate new students.

GOAL NBE-3
Pride in Identity: Nurture
distinct districts and
neighborhoods that contribute
to a sense of local pride.

The land use planning framework for this plan, described in Chapter 2, promotes a mosaic of places and experiences throughout Vallejo. The neighborhoods, districts, employment centers, gateways, and corridors of the city each promote a sense of place and build pride in Vallejo’s identity.

DOWNTOWN/WATERFRONT
The Downtown/Waterfront is the traditional heart of the community that grew across the strait from the Naval Shipyard. Today, its historic streets and buildings are attracting artists and entrepreneurs, while the Ferry Terminal and newly completed Transit Center connect the area to the wider region. The walkable network of linear streets and public spaces downtown is just a stone's throw from the iconic waterfront, adding to the charm of this part of town. While the downtown/waterfront is the subject of the Downtown Specific Plan and the Waterfront Planned Development Master Plan, the following additional policies and actions are intended to help build sense of place and strengthen Vallejo's image as a river and bay city.

POLICY NBE-3.1 Catalyst Projects. Accelerate investment in the Downtown/Waterfront that will generate prosperity

OTHER DISTRICTS
In addition to the Downtown/Waterfront, three other distinct districts represent the diversity and range of opportunity in Vallejo: Solano360, North Gateway, and Mare Island. Solano360 is the subject of a specific plan adopted in 2013 for the Six Flags/County Fairground area that intends to complement the area’s destination entertainment success with a revitalized County Fairgrounds – the “Fair of the Future”, an iconic, region-serving public entertainment destination – with private mixed-use development. The North Gateway District, between Sonoma Boulevard and Broadway Street north of SR 37, offers an opportunity to capitalize on significant daily regional travel by both residents and visitors in a mixed-use district. Mare Island is also the subject of a specific plan (adopted 1999, amended 2005, and last amended 2013), the objectives of which have begun to materialize. The island is envisioned to diversify with opportunities to live work, shop, and play in close proximity, which is the overall goal of each of the city’s districts.

POLICY NBE-3.7 Solano360. Achieve the objectives of the Solano360 Specific Plan.

Action NBE-3.7A Implement Solano360 actions as resources allow.

POLICY NBE-3.8 North Gateway. Accelerate investment in the North Gateway area to achieve a mixed-use district that caters to both locals and regional travelers to Napa Valley.

Action NBE-3.8A Target business attraction strategies for the North Gateway that can take advantage of local commercial needs, as well as the area’s location at the entry to the wine country.

POLICY NBE-3.9 Mare Island Specific Plan. Achieve the objectives of the Mare Island Specific Plan to foster a multi-use
community with a balance of industrial, office,

Action NBE-3.9B Continue working with Lennar Mare Island to attract retail and dining options on Mare Island.

Action NBE-3.9C Seek funding to improve pedestrian and transit connections on Mare Island, including connections to the Mare Island Ferry Terminal.

EMPLOYMENT CENTERS
Vallejo's three main employment centers are located on Mare Island; south of downtown between Sonoma Boulevard and Curtola Parkway; and along Sonoma Boulevard and Broadway Street between Redwood Street and SR 37. Each center is anchored by a cluster of key businesses, and each has room for growth. They are all well-served by transportation infrastructure with easy access to regional roadways and ferry or bus service. Employment is the primary activity in each of these areas. Shops and services that cater to the daily needs of employees can also contribute to the character of these areas.

NATURE & BUILT ENVIRONMENT 4-21
POLICY NBE-3.10 Curtola Employment Center. Strengthen and grow the employment cluster directly south of the downtown
area.

Action NBE-3.10A Update City regulations to allow for accessory and secondary activities that support the local workforce in the Curtola Employment District such as banks, cafes, printers, and office supply stores.

Action NBE-3.10B Attract a mix of uses, such as multi-family housing, student housing, or a corporate or educational campus, to the Cityowned south waterfront site that support the vitality of the Curtola Employment Center.

POLICY NBE-3.11 Mare Island. Support industrial, office, and retail uses as envisioned in the Mare Island Specific Plan.

Action NBE-3.11A Pursue redevelopment of North Mare Island with job-generating uses as a near-term priority.

Action NBE-3.11B Collaborate with Lennar Mare Island to facilitate development and redevelopment of its holdings on Mare Island pursuant to the development agreement for that land.

Action NBE-3.11C Manage the community services district on the island in a manner that provides necessary services and transparent fiscal practices.

surrounding Kaiser Permanente and Soltrans properties.

Action NBE-3.12A Explore opportunities for transit-oriented development (i.e., Urban Village) near the Sereno Transit Center in collaboration with Soltrans and adjacent property owners.

RESIDENTIAL NEIGHBORHOODS
Vallejo's residential neighborhoods fan out from the downtown area, comprising the majority of the urbanized area of the city. Closer to the Downtown/Waterfront District, homes are built on a linear, walkable street grid. These neighborhoods are characterized primarily by single-family homes, but there are some smaller scale apartment buildings as well as duplexes and fourplexes mixed among them. There are many historic homes in this part of town, concentrated in the Saint Vincent's Hill Historic District and Vallejo Old City Historic District.

Further from the center, Vallejo's neighborhoods have a more suburban development pattern. Particularly in postwar subdivisions east of Interstate 80, homes are constructed on curvilinear streets. These neighborhoods are predominantly characterized by single-family homes, although there are some multi-family developments adjacent to shopping centers. On Mare Island, duplexes that formerly housed naval personnel line one side of Azuar Drive, while charming new neighborhoods with tree-lined streets and new urbanist style homes flank Flagship Drive.

The following policies and actions are intended to preserve and enhance the quality of Vallejo's neighborhoods.
4-22 Vallejo General Plan 2040
POLICY NBE-3.13 Neighborhood Character. Preserve the character of existing single-family residential neighborhoods.

Action NBE-3.13A Continue to carefully review development proposals to preclude substantial increases in density and new land uses in order to minimize the impact to the character of existing single-family neighborhoods.

Action NBE-3.13B Continue to allow a mix of housing types along the interconnected linear street grid that contributes to the charm and walkability of Vallejo's central residential neighborhoods, where appropriate.

Action NBE-3.13C Continue to allow small group homes for disabled persons and seniors in all residential zones, consistent with State housing law, and continue to allow large group homes and large family daycare facilities, subject to use permit requirements that minimize impacts to neighborhoods.

Action NBE-3.13D Continue to permit home-based businesses in residential neighborhoods, provided that off-site impacts are minimized and the residential nature of structures and their surroundings is not compromised.

Action NBE-3.13E Consistent with the CPTED policies and guidelines, update City regulations to require that fences, and other safety and privacy features are aesthetically compatible with each other, adjacent structures, neighborhood context, and pedestrian, bicycle, and vehicle safety.

CENTRAL CORRIDOR/NEIGHBORHOOD CORRIDORS
Corridors serve as a connecting function among all of the elements of the city’s structure and tie the community together. They pass through residential neighborhoods, linking residents to key destinations around town. Each corridor also functions as a local destination for nearby residents, serving as a neighborhood "main street" where people run errands, hold festivals, and meet friends and neighbors.

Concentrating activities and uses at key intersections and other locations create “urban villages”, where corridors provide safe, convenient connections for transit, bicycling, and walking, and offer a range of housing options.

NATURE & BUILT ENVIRONMENT 4-23
POLICY NBE-3.14 Neighborhood Corridors. Connect the community with mixed-use corridors that function as neighborhood main
streets for adjacent residential areas.

Action NBE-3.14A Work with property owners to develop corridor-specific strategies for attracting and retaining businesses that will provide synergistic opportunities and improve the availability of goods and services within and adjacent to specific
neighborhoods.

Action NBE-3.14B Update City regulations to incorporate standards for activating corridors, including standards for the placement of doors and windows.

Action NBE-3.14C Identify key intersections, other locations, and catalyst sites along neighborhood corridors and work with property owners to facilitate development of urban villages at these locations with shops, services, and housing.

Action NBE-3.14D Use the Sonoma Boulevard Specific Plan to guide development and redevelopment along the Central Corridor.

Action NBE-3.14E Update City regulations to require that corridors are designed as "complete streets" with wide sidewalks, street furniture and trees, bicycle lanes, crosswalks and bus turnouts to make it easy, safe, and enjoyable to get around by any mode of
transportation.

GOAL NBE-4
Iconic Waterfront: Make the
waterfront a centerpiece of the
community and the region.

Vallejo's waterfront extends from Dillon Point along the Carquinez Strait, up both sides of Mare Island Strait, and along the Napa River past White Slough to the northern City limit. Throughout the city's history, the waterfront has played a pivotal role in the life of the community, and today it remains a valuable natural resource and public amenity. Preserving and enhancing the waterfront is integral for the social and economic well-being of Vallejo.
“
4-24 Vallejo General Plan 2040

COMMUNITY ENHANCING USES
The waterfront plays many roles along its length. It provides habitat for plant, animal and fish species, and access to nature for the residents of the city. It's a driver of the local economy as well, particularly along the western shore of Mare Island where jobgenerating industrial uses are concentrated, but also along the eastern shoreline, where the Ferry Building and Municipal Marina are located. At River Park, Glen Cove and other points along its length, the waterfront provides recreational opportunities for boating, hiking, and picnicking. The central and northern waterfronts, which runs along the eastern shoreline from Curtola Parkway to the Mare Island Causeway also hosts festivals and celebrations, serving as a focus for community life.

POLICY NBE-4.1 Waterfront Focus. Prioritize public access and recreational and water-dependent uses along the
waterfront while minimizing adverse effects on the
natural environment.

Action NBE-4.1A Incorporate existing plans, including the Mare Island Specific Plan and Waterfront Planned Development Master Plan, into a comprehensive, integrated vision for both sides of the Mare Island Strait south of State Route 37, focusing on waterfront access and amenities.

Action NBE-4.1B Investigate and provide access to places for in-water recreational activities and for commercial and recreational small crafts, such as water taxis, canoes, and kayaks.

Action NBE-4.1C Collaborate with private sector partners on redevelopment of the waterfront on both sides of Mare Island Strait, consistent with existing plans and agreements.

Action NBE-4.1D Update City regulations to emphasize mixed-use development along the central waterfront, on the east side of Mare Island Way that enhance connections between downtown and the
waterfront.

POLICY NBE-4.2 Waterfront Open Space. Activate waterfront open spaces adjacent to downtown Vallejo.

Action NBE-4.2A Work with local and regional economic agencies and groups to attract business and activities that will bring local residents, families, and visitors to the waterfront regularly.

Action NBE-4.2B Sponsor activities, programs, and temporary events for community members and visitors that activate the waterfront on both sides of Mare Island Strait.

Action NBE-4.2C Encourage temporary uses such as food trucks, vendors, and festivals.

Action NBE-4.2D Install amenities such as playscapes, exercise equipment, picnic spaces, and public art.

ACCESS AND CONNECTIVITY
Public access to the waterfront is a basic foundation of shoreline planning around San Francisco Bay. The San Francisco Bay Conservation and Development Commission (BCDC), which regulates new development within the first 100 feet inland from the Bay shoreline, has established public access design guidelines that seek to maximize public access to the water, encourage water-oriented uses, and protect valuable environmental resources along the shoreline. The City has also adopted Waterfront NATURE & BUILT ENVIRONMENT 4-25
Design Guidelines to guide public and private investments along the waterfront between Solano Avenue and the Mare Island Causeway.

An important waterfront project will be the development of a promenade and trail along the eastern shoreline of Mare Island Strait. Envisioned as a natural trail with scenic pause points at its extremities in the central waterfront area adjacent to downtown, the promenade would connect a series of public green spaces with recreational amenities for families and children. The central waterfront promenade would be a true community amenity, integral to Vallejo's sense of place.

POLICY NBE-4.3 Trails. Support development and implementation of a comprehensive plan for trails that provides access to the waterfront.

Action NBE-4.3A Facilitate development of a promenade and trail, along the waterfront or as close to the waterfront as feasible, extending from the Zampa Bridge in South Vallejo north to River Park and White Slough.

Action NBE-4.3B Identify priority scenic views and points of interest along the waterfront and potential connections to surrounding
destinations.

Action NBE-4.3C Seek funding for infrastructure improvements, landscaping, and outdoor amenities to increase pedestrian, bike, and transit access to the water and build linkages to downtown Vallejo.

POLICY NBE-4.4 Visual Continuity. Foster a cohesive and distinctive visual experience along the waterfront.

Action NBE-4.4A Continue to use the Waterfront Design Guidelines to guide public and private investments along the waterfront between Solano Avenue and the Mare Island Causeway.

Action NBE-4.4B Continue to use BCDC Public Access Design Guidelines in reviewing waterfront development proposals.

POLICY NBE-4.5 Waterfront Stewardship. Manage commercial areas of the waterfront so as to contribute to the overall
sustainable fiscal health of the City.

Action NBE-4.5A Create a phased Waterfront Capital Improvement Program that identifies projects and estimates operational and maintenance costs.

GOAL NBE-5
Hazard Protection: Protect
life and property from natural
and human-made hazards.

Every general plan in California must address natural and human-made hazards and dangers to identify the potential risk of death, injuries, property damage, and economic and social dislocation resulting from fires, floods, earthquakes, landslides, and other events. The following policies and actions are intended to promote public safety and reduce the risk of hazards.
“
4-26 Vallejo General Plan 2040

PREPAREDNESS
Like much of the Bay Area, Vallejo is vulnerable to seismic activity due to the presence of several active faults in the region. In California, the Alquist-Priolo Act requires the identification of active faults and the establishment of earthquake fault zones around them so that communities can plan land use to avoid these areas. There are no Alquist-Priolo fault zones in Vallejo. The closest and most prominent active faults are the Rodgers Creek Fault and the Concord-Green Valley Fault, whose nearest approaches lie approximately five miles from the Vallejo city limit. There are some more minor potentially active faults that run through the Planning Area, including the Franklin Fault and the Southhampton Fault, as shown on Map NBE-3. According to the US Geological Survey (USGS), no historical seismic events have been attributed to these faults.

The probability of a magnitude 6.7 or greater earthquake prior to the year 2036 in the Bay Area is considered to be 63 percent, according to USGS estimates, with the probability of an event of this magnitude estimated at 31 percent on the Rodgers Creek-Hayward Fault and 3 percent for the Green Valley-Concord Fault. Earthquakes of this magnitude can create ground accelerations severe enough to cause major damage to structures and foundations not designed to resist the forces generated by earthquakes. Underground utility lines are also susceptible where they lack sufficient flexibility to accommodate the seismic ground motion. With a seismic event of this magnitude, most parts of Vallejo are expected to experience “very strong” shaking.

Under certain circumstances, ground shaking can temporarily transform an otherwise solid, granular material to a fluid state. This process is known as liquefaction, and generally occurs in areas with moist, fine-grained sediment or fill. Liquefaction is a serious hazard because it can cause buildings to subside and suffer major structural damage. Liquefaction is most often triggered by seismic shaking, but it can also be caused by improper grading, landslides, or other factors. Parts of the planning area are susceptible to liquefaction are shown on Map NBE-4. With proper foundation design and adherence to building code standards, development in these areas can still safely occur.

Mapped landslide zones in Vallejo are almost exclusively found on steeper hillsides in the northeast part of the community, such as the areas near Sulphur Springs Mountain, although smaller, isolated landslides have also been documented in the low hills at the south end of Mare Island as well as the steep, west-facing slopes of Carquinez Heights east of the Napa River. Due to the differences in the physical characteristics of slope materials, some superficially similar areas may differ widely in terms of landslide hazard potential. For this reason, site-specific geotechnical analyses are considered essential to the accurate assessment of landslide hazard risk at a given location.

Map NBE-4 shows Fire Hazard Severity Zones in the Planning Area, based on topography, weather and fuel classification. State Responsibility Areas (SRA) indicate areas where the State has fiscal responsibility and can charge fees to support fire prevention, while Local Responsibility Areas show where the City of Vallejo has fiscal responsibility. There are no Very High Fire Hazard Areas in or adjacent to Vallejo.

Grassland areas along the eastern perimeter of the city and on the southern portion of Mare Island have High Fire Hazard classification, although wildfire risk with this type of vegetative cover is more easily controlled through preventive weed abatement measures than in places with heavier brush and more trees. Areas of wildland/urban interface, where high-value structures such as homes meet highly flammable native vegetation, are more vulnerable and, as a result of serious wildland fires throughout the state in recent years, are more stringently subject to fire-prevention regulations on development.

The City and Solano County coordinate for response in emergency situations. The City and the County have adopted separate but consistent Emergency Operations Plans used for pre-emergency planning and emergency response to natural and humanmade disasters. Additionally, the Vallejo Fire Department offers Citizens Emergency Response Training (CERT) to community members for disaster preparedness.

POLICY NBE-5.1 Event Readiness. Prepare sufficiently for major events to enable quick and effective response.

Action NBE-5.1A Periodically update the City’s Local Hazard Mitigation Plan as well as the Emergency Management Plan, including by
ensuring consistency with the Solano County Emergency
Operations Plan.

Action NBE-5.1C Coordinate with emergency response agencies, nearby cities, community groups, and private enterprise in developing
comprehensive disaster preparedness, assistance, and postdisaster recovery plans.

Action NBE-5.1D Collaborate with the Greater Vallejo Recreation District, Solano Land Trust, and other public agencies to ensure that open spaces are maintained so that ground fuels do not promote the spread of wildfire.

Action NBE-5.1E Periodically update the City's Capital Improvement Program to include improvements that will expedite emergency response.

Action NBE-5.1F Work with local gas, electric, cable, water, sewer, and other utility providers to help and ensure their ability to function (or be quickly restored) following an outage.

POLICY NBE-5.2 Community Preparedness. Increase public awareness of City emergency preparedness programs and resources.

Action NBE-5.2A Continue to provide Community Emergency Response Team (CERT) training to residents and business community members.

POLICY NBE-5.3 Health and Safety Codes. Enforce development regulations and building code requirements to protect
residents, businesses, and employees from flooding,
liquefaction, earthquakes, fires, and other hazards.

Action NBE-5.3A Periodically revise construction codes and regulations to incorporate the latest information and technology related to natural hazards such as earthquakes and flooding.

Action NBE-5.3B Continue to require development to comply with building and safety codes and continue to route plans and drawings to all relevant City departments for review.
4-30 Vallejo General Plan 2040
POLICY NBE-5.4 Project Location and Design. Prohibit development in any area where it is determined that the potential risk from natural hazards cannot be mitigated to acceptable
levels.

Action NBE-5.4A Continue to require geotechnical studies for land use proposals to determine engineering measures that may be necessary to adequately mitigate any seismic, flooding, sea level rise, landslide, erosion, or related risk.

Action NBE-5.4B Continue to require drainage and erosion control measures for landslide-prone or geologically hazardous hillside areas to minimize risks to downhill areas.

Action NBE-5.4C Continue to use the development review process to ensure that development is planned and constructed to resist the
encroachment of uncontrolled fire.

Action NBE-5.4D Locate public facilities that are critical to health and safety (such as police and fire stations, and water and sewer facilities) so as to minimize potential impacts from hazards.

Action NBE-5.4E Work with property owners to facilitate the retrofitting of existing structures to reduce the potential for damage during
earthquakes.

POLICY NBE-5.5 Hazard Awareness. Promote public awareness of hazards and resources available to help property and business
owners improve safety and prepare for emergencies.

Action NBE-5.5A Continue to partner with neighborhood and community organizations to conduct emergency preparedness exercises.

Action NBE-5.5B Update “high fire hazard severity zone” maps as necessary and provide landowners with information on minimum defensible space requirements for development in affected areas.

FLOOD CONTROL
A major portion of Vallejo's western boundary consists of low-lying mud flats and marshlands adjacent to the Napa River. Although much of the area within the historic floodplain has been filled and/or diked, some areas are still subject to seasonal flooding. The levees were constructed at the turn of the 20th century when the practice of reclaiming wetlands for agriculture was common throughout the Bay Area. The area around White Slough was once protected by levees; however, the levees were breached in the 1960s and again in the 1970s when the Napa River flooded. After the second of these storm cycles, the levees were not repaired and the area was inundated by tidal flows, creating the wetlands that exist today. Heavy rains and high NATURE & BUILT ENVIRONMENT 4-31
tides have also caused historic flooding around Lake Dalwigk and in the floodplain around Nebraska and Sutter-Napa Streets.

The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) maps areas at risk of inundation in the event of a 100-year flood, which has a 1 percent chance of occurring in any given year, and a 500-year flood, where the risk of flooding is 0.2 percent in a given year. FEMA flood risk areas are shown on Map NBE-5. Construction within flood hazard zones is restricted by the provisions of the Vallejo municipal code, and the City participates in FEMA's National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP), providing subsidized flood insurance to property owners. The City cooperates on flood control planning with the Vallejo Sanitation and Flood Control District (VSFCD), which operates and maintains the storm drain system that helps protect the community from flooding.

Statewide regulations require new development projects and redevelopment projects to treat stormwater and reduce runoff.

Map NBE-5 also shows the inundation areas for four dammed reservoirs owned and operated by the City of Vallejo: Lake Chabot, Summit Reservoir, Swanzy Lake, and Fleming Hill No. 2 Reservoir. The California Division of Safety of Dams (DSOD) inspects each dam on an annual basis to ensure the dam is safe and performing as intended. The dams have been assessed for seismic stability and are projected to withstand the maximum credible earthquake. The probability of local dam failure is extremely low, and Vallejo has never been impacted by a major dam failure.

BCDC has identified areas in Vallejo that may be affected by sea level rise of 55 inches by 2100, as shown on Map NBE-6. Given local elevation, most of Vallejo is not susceptible, but some areas near White Slough and on the South Waterfront could be flooded. Most shoreline damage from flooding will occur as a result of storm activity in combination with higher sea levels. BCDC requires that shoreline protection projects, such as levees and seawalls, be designed to withstand the effects of projected sea level rise and be integrated with adjacent shoreline protection. Whenever feasible, projects must integrate hard shoreline protection structures with natural features, such as marsh or upland vegetation, that enhance the Bay ecosystem. BCDC also requires risk assessments for projects within 100 feet of the shoreline; however, as a matter of best practice, development within areas susceptible to sea rise should be designed for resilience.

of new roofs and paving.

Action NBE-5.7A Provide informational materials that promote the use of permeable materials for driveways, streets, parking lots, sidewalks, and plazas.

Action NBE-5.7B Continue to manage and maintain City-owned storm drainage infrastructure to avoid flooding and reduce the negative effects of stormwater runoff.

POLICY NBE-5.8 Dam Safety. Ensure that City-operated dams are properly maintained through regular inspections, and take
precautions necessary to protect Vallejo properties from related flood hazards in the event of dam failure.

Action NBE-5.8A Work with the California Division of Dams (CDOD) and California Office of Emergency Services (CalOES) in the update of dam inundation maps and Emergency Action Plans (EAPs), as needed, for the dams operated by the City of Vallejo.

POLICY NBE-5.9 Sea Level Rise. Plan for sea level rise and participate in regional adaptation efforts for areas of Vallejo at risk from sea level rise.

Action NBE-5.9A For City underground utilities, use materials that are more resistant to corrosion from saltwater intrusion.

Action NBE-5.9B Seek funding to develop and implement sea level rise adaptation strategies and projects.

Action NBE-5.9C In consultation with Solano County and the San Francisco Bay Conservation and Development Commission (BCDC), develop a Sea Level Rise Strategy that identifies properties and resources susceptible to sea level rise and includes protection and adaptation strategies, based on the latest sea level rise planning guidance from the State.

HAZARDOUS MATERIALS
Federal, State, and local laws regulate the production, storage, handling, and disposal of hazardous materials and waste. These are materials that pose a significant hazard to human health and safety or to the environment, including industrial wastes, pesticides, radioactive wastes, asbestos, and combustible fuels. Hazardous materials commonly used in the home include garden pesticides, waste oil, paint supplies, car batteries, and pool chemicals. Limited quantities of household hazardous waste may be transported to and dropped off at a recycling center.

Both the State and the federal government require businesses that store or handle hazardous materials to comply with inventory and reporting programs. Businesses that store more than 55 gallons of hazardous liquids, 500 pounds of solids, or 200 cubic feet of compressed gases must also file an annual business plan to establish incident prevention measures, hazardous-materials handling protocols, and emergency response and evacuation procedures.

Although hazardous materials are carefully regulated today, past activities have left several contaminated sites in Vallejo, and there are others where contamination is suspected and investigation is underway. Contamination has resulted from leaking underground storage tanks, disposal of hazardous materials, and various past industrial practices. The potential for accidents and spills means that the City must strive to reduce risks and be prepared for emergencies. The California Department of Toxic Substances Control (DTSC) oversees the environmental cleanup of NATURE & BUILT ENVIRONMENT 4-35
contaminated sites. On Mare Island, master developer Lennar Mare Island and the Navy under DTSC oversight continue to clean and remediate the former shipyard for residential, industrial, and commercial use. The Mare Island Restoration Advisory Board (RAB), consisting of members from the Navy, the local community, local business, regulatory agencies, and special interest groups, offers a forum for information sharing and community input into the environmental cleanup process.

POLICY NBE-5.10 Site Safety. Ensure that affected soil, groundwater, or buildings will not have the potential to adversely affect the environment or the health and safety of site
occupants.

Action NBE-5.10A Continue to require remediation of hazardous material releases from previous land uses as part of any redevelopment activities.

Action NBE-5.10B Continue to require environmental site assessments stipulated by State and County regulations for potential hazardous material releases from prior uses and assessments for lead and asbestos present in building materials.

Action NBE-5.10C Continue to work with the Navy, Lennar Mare Island, and the Mare Island Restoration Advisory Boards (RABs) to prioritize the cleanup of remnant contamination on Mare Island and assure remedial actions are maintained.

Action NBE-5.10D Seek funding and technical assistance to facilitate brownfield redevelopment, including federal Tax Incentives for brownfields sites, DTSC Revolving Loan Fund (RLF) Program, Cleanup
Loans and Environmental Assistance to Neighborhoods
(CLEAN) Loan Program, Brownfields Tax Incentives, and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) brownfields grant and loan programs.

POLICY NBE-5.11 Risk Reduction. Reduce the risk of hazardous materials accidents, spills, and vapor releases, and minimize the effects of such incidents if they occur.

Action NBE-5.11A Continue to require the preparation of Hazardous Materials Business Plans for new uses that will handle hazardous
materials, including inventory of materials by type, quantities, and conditions of storage and transportation, assessment of potential hazards associated with the materials, and steps to be taken to minimize risks and in the event of a spill.

Action NBE-5.11B Continue to require that businesses using hazardous materials maintain safe distances from sensitive uses, such as homes and schools.

Action NBE-5.11C Work with appropriate State and federal agencies to designate and periodically update official routes for the transportation of hazardous materials.
4-36 Vallejo General Plan 2040
Action NBE-5.11D Continue to require compliance with all hazardous waste transport standards established by State and federal agencies.

Action NBE-5.11E Continue to require that all facilities where hazardous materials are used, handled, or stored are designed and constructed to minimize the possibility of environmental contamination and off-site impacts.

Action NBE-5.11F Collaborate with county, State, and federal agencies to ensure that facilities where hazardous materials are used, handled, or stored are regularly inspected and that applicable regulations are enforced.

POLICY NBE-5.12 Public Awareness. Ensure that residents and businesses can obtain up-to-date information about hazardous
materials handling, storage, and regulations in the
community.

Action NBE-5.12A Publicize household hazardous waste collection events, and provide residents with information on safe disposal procedures for household waste such as paint, motor oil, and batteries.

Action NBE-5.12B Enforce community disclosure (Right to Know) laws that inform property owners of the presence of hazardous materials nearby.

Action NBE-5.12C Work with rail and waterborne cargo transporters and the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) to ensure safe conditions for the loading, unloading, and transport of hazardous materials through Vallejo.

NOISE
Noise can affect the way people live and work. Some types of noise are only shortterm irritants, like the pounding of a jackhammer or the whine of a leaf blower. These noise sources can generally be controlled through City noise regulations, including noise ordinances. However, noise from certain sources, such as freeways, roadways, aircraft, and railways that are permanent fixtures in the community can potentially diminish quality of life and detract from community character. To limit exposure to noise and to minimize adverse effects on sensitive receptors like homes and schools, land uses must be planned such that compatibility with noise sources can be achieved, and, where conflicts exist, noise reduction mitigation measures must be used.

State law requires general plans to use the Community Noise Equivalent Level (CNEL) or the Day/Night Average Sound Level (Ldn) to describe the community noise environment (in decibels, “dBA”) and its effects on the population. Vallejo's land use compatibility standards for noise, described in Ldn, are summarized in Table NBE-1.

POLICY NBE-5.13 Noise Control. Ensure that noise does not affect quality of life in the community.

Action NBE-5.13A Continue to require that new noise-producing uses are located sufficiently far away from noise-sensitive receptors and/or include adequate noise mitigation, such as screening, barriers, sound enclosures, noise insulation, and/or restrictions on hours of operation.

Action NBE-5.13B Update City regulations to require that parking, loading, and shipping facilities and all associated mechanical equipment be located and designed to minimize potential noise and vibration impacts on residential neighborhoods.

Normally Unacceptable:

New construction or development should
generally be discouraged. If new construction
does proceed, a detailed analysis of the noise
reduction requirements must be made and
needed noise insulation features included in
the design.

Conditionally Acceptable:

New construction or development should be
undertaken only after a detailed analysis of the
noise reduction requirements is made and the
needed noise insulation features included in the
design. Conventional construction, but with
closed windows and fresh air supply systems or
air conditioning will normally suffice.

Clearly Unacceptable:

New construction or development generally
should not be undertaken.

Action NBE-5.13C Update City regulations to restrict the allowable hours to between 7 AM and 7 PM on weekdays for construction,
demolition, maintenance, and loading/unloading activities that may impact noise-sensitive land uses.

Action NBE-5.13D Require proponents of mixed-use projects to notify potential residents that they may be affected by noise from
adjacent/nearby commercial, retail, entertainment, and/or circulation components of the project.

POLICY NBE-5.14 Vibration Control. Ensure that vibration does not affect quality of life in the community.

Action NBE-5.14A Update City regulations to establish quantified vibration level limits similar to commonly used guidelines found in the Federal Transit Administration document “Transit Noise and Vibration Impact Assessment” (2006).

POLICY NBE-5.15 Noise Compatibility Standards. Apply the General Plan noise and land use compatibility standards to all new
residential, commercial, and mixed-use development
and redevelopment.

Action NBE-5.15A For new single-family residential projects, use a standard of 60 Ldn for exterior noise in private use areas, and require appropriate impact mitigation.

Action NBE-5.15B For new multi-family residential projects, use a standard of 65 Ldn in outdoor areas, excluding balconies, and require appropriate impact mitigation.
4-38 Vallejo General Plan 2040
Action NBE-5.15C For new mixed-use projects that include a residential component, use a standard of 65 Ldn in outdoor areas,
excluding balconies, and require the design to minimize commercial noise intrusion into residential areas, including by separating residential areas from noise-generating sources such as mechanical equipment, entertainment facilities, gathering places, loading bays, parking lots, driveways, and trash enclosures to the extent reasonably feasible.

Action NBE-5.15D Require maximum interior noise levels at 45 Ldn in all new residential units, and require appropriate impact mitigation.

Action NBE-5.15E When approving new development, limit project-related noise increases to the following for permanent stationary and transportation-related noise sources:
• no more than 10 dB in non-residential areas;
• no more than 5 dB in residential areas where the withproject noise level is less than the maximum "normally acceptable" level in the Noise and Land Use Compatibility figure; and
• no more than 3 dB where the with-project noise level
exceeds the "normally acceptable" level in Noise and Land Use Compatibility figure.

Action NBE-5.15F Require acoustical studies with appropriate mitigation measures for projects that are likely to be exposed to noise levels that exceed the ‘normally acceptable’ standard and for any other projects that are likely to generate noise in excess of these standards.
5 ECONOMY,

EDUCATION,
& TRAINING
Goal EET-1: Strong, Stable, and Diverse Economy: Cultivate a strong, stable, and diverse local economy.

Goal EET-2: Good Jobs, Education, and Training: Promote workforce development to build the local economy.

Goal EET-3: Innovation, Entrepreneurship, and Successful Local Businesses: Foster innovation and entrepreneurship.

Goal EET-4: Sustainable Economic Development: Pursue economic development that enhances equitable local wealth growth, improves quality of life, and respects the natural environment.

ECONOMY, EDUCATION, & TRAINING 5-1
ECONOMY, EDUCATION, AND TRAINING 5 for Vallejo means a local economy that creates well-paying jobs, revitalizes the downtown and neighborhoods, and grows revenues to pay for critical public services. The purpose of the Economy, Education, and Training chapter is to establish a framework under the General Plan that empowers Vallejo to undertake bold economic development, education, and training initiatives that will position Vallejo as an appealing location in the dynamic San Francisco Bay Area region.

Enhancing Vallejo’s presence as an economic hub depends on retaining, supporting, and attracting a diverse range of businesses that will sustain the local economy despite the whims of market forces. It also requires preparing the local workforce for meaningful employment, including through professional and vocational programs for young Vallejoans. Finally, the city’s success as an economic engine requires nurturing local innovation and entrepreneurial spirit, while ensuring that business activities benefit the community and the environment.

Vallejo’s economic development and prosperity also involves a variety of initiatives addressed in Chapter 4, Nature and Built Environment and Chapter 6, Mobility, Transportation, and Connectivity. Where policies and actions in other chapters in the plan have co-benefits that will help achieve the goals of this chapter, connections with those chapters are highlighted and cross-referenced.

Prosperity
5-2 Vallejo General Plan 2040

ECONOMIC PROFILE
Vallejo’s economy has been steadily improving since the Great Recession, and Tables EET-1 through EET-4 illustrate this trend. Total employment, which is at more than 31,000 jobs in 2016, now exceeds the pre-recession peak level. Jobs are most plentiful in the health care, retail trade, government, accommodation and food services, and arts, entertainment, and recreation sectors. These industry sectors are also reflected in Vallejo’s top employers, which are led by the Kaiser Permanente Medical Center.

However, Vallejo’s unemployment rate has remained high compared to Solano County, the Bay Area, and California. To address this, a focus on increasing educational and training opportunities for local residents and on helping existing local businesses grow is needed. In turn, a strengthened local employment pool and growing business community will attract new employers and bring more opportunity, helping to ensure that all Vallejoans have the capacity and opportunity to secure meaningful and gainful employment. Table EET-5 highlights the key actors helping achieve this goal in Vallejo.

VALLEJO’S KEY ECONOMIC ASSETS
Vallejo has many attractive assets that it can use to expand its economy, create jobs, and restore fiscal health.

Strategic Location and Transportation
Vallejo has a strategic location, with excellent road, rail, and water connections to the surrounding region, including links to San Francisco and Sacramento via Interstate 80, the world-renowned Napa Valley wine country by Highway 29, Marin, and Sonoma counties through State Route (SR) 37, and central Contra Costa County by Interstates 780/680. For commuters and visitors alike, Vallejo offers high-speed catamaran ferry service direct to San Francisco and bus links to BART and Amtrak’s Capitol Corridor stations. Developing the central waterfront area around the ferry terminal and City Hall and the municipal marina further north will foster a walkable environment at the heart of the city with a vibrant mix of uses day and night, a bustling transit hub and significant open space improvements.

Downtown
Vallejo is fortunate to have a compact, human-scale, highly walkable downtown with many historic buildings within steps of its waterfront. New residential and commercial development on vacant and underutilized sites downtown can enhance the downtown’s liveliness and vitality.

Waterfront
Cities across the world are leveraging their waterfronts to bring new energy, development, and new activities to reinvigorate the city and local economy. With approximately 10 miles of waterfront (plus Mare Island), Vallejo too has the opportunity to use its distinctive waterfront to strengthen the economy, revitalize downtown, and enable the community to prosper.

Mare Island
The 5,250-acre Mare Island contains a large inventory of buildings, commercial and industrial facilities, as well as land for new development. Mare Island’s inventory of older industrial structures provide opportunities for adaptive reuse for a wide variety of commercial and industrial uses, including production, distribution, and repair (“PDR”) uses, general manufacturing and assembly, artist spaces, green/clean tech, and more. 225
