TO: Mayor and Members of the City Council
FROM: Jason Ta, Chief of Police
SUBJECT: ADOPT A RESOLUTION: (1) ACCEPTING A $199,135 FISCAL YEAR 2025 LAW ENFORCEMENT MENTAL HEALTH AND WELLNESS ACT GRANT, (2) APPROVING
ANY STANDARD GRANT AGREEMENT RELATING THERETO THAT IS APPROVED BY THE CITY ATTORNEY’S OFFICE, (3) AUTHORIZING THE CITY MANAGER’S EXECUTION OF ANY SUCH AGREEMENT, AND (4) PROVIDING NOTICE OF INTENT TO AMEND THE FISCAL YEAR 2025–2026 GENERAL FUND BUDGET IN THE AMOUNT OF $199,135 (STEP 1 OF 2)
RECOMMENDATION
Adopt a Resolution:
1. Accepting a $199,135 Fiscal Year 2025 Law Enforcement Mental Health and Wellness Act Grant (“LEMHWA Grant”);
2. Approving any standard grant agreement relating thereto that is approved by the City Attorney’s Office;
3. Authorizing the City Manager’s execution of any such agreement; and
4. As the first in a two-step process, providing notice of intent to amend Fiscal Year 2025-2026 General Fund budget to recognize revenue and appropriate expenditures in the amount of $199,135.
REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATION
The United States Department of Justice’s (“US DOJ”) Office of Community Oriented Policing Services (“COPS Office”) awarded the Vallejo Police Department (“VPD”) $199,135 from the FY25 Law Enforcement Mental Health and Wellness Act Grant (“LEMHWA Grant”). Over a two-year period, the LEMHWA Grant provides funding to law enforcement agencies to implement new – or enhance existing – programs that offer training and services to support police officers’ emotional and mental health, including through counseling programs, peer mentoring, suicide prevention, stress reduction, and police officer family services. VPD police officers and their families – and indirectly the entire Vallejo community – will benefit from the services funded by the LEMHWA Grant. To receive the LEMHWA Grant funds, the City of Vallejo – through its authorized representative – must execute grant agreement(s) with the US DOJ regarding use of the funds.
BACKGROUND AND DISCUSSION
VPD’s chronic officer shortage is well-known. Currently, VPD has a 36% vacancy rate, with only 82 sworn officers to serve over 120,000 residents. This shortage creates service gaps, dangerous conditions, and low morale. VPD employs just five homicide detectives despite investigating 20+ murders annually, which exceeds neighboring cities. Research shows prolonged trauma exposure harms officers’ mental and physical health (Craddock et al., 2021), and officers experience depression at nearly double the rate of the general population (Hartley et al., 2016). Vallejo’s violent crime rate of 845/100,000 is well above national averages (FBI, 2019), which increases officers’ exposure to violence without necessary support and contributes to stress-related off-duty incidents.
Date: December 9, 2025
Subject: ADOPT A RESOLUTION: (1) ACCEPTING A $199,135 FISCAL YEAR 2025 LAW ENFORCEMENT MENTAL HEALTH AND WELLNESS ACT GRANT, (2)
APPROVING ANY STANDARD GRANT AGREEMENT RELATING THERETO THAT IS APPROVED BY THE CITY ATTORNEY’S OFFICE, (3) AUTHORIZING THE CITY MANAGER’S EXECUTION OF ANY SUCH AGREEMENT, AND (4) PROVIDING NOTICE OF INTENT TO AMEND THE FISCAL YEAR 2025–2026 GENERAL FUND BUDGET IN THE AMOUNT OF $199,135 (STEP 1 OF 2)
Mental and psychological health are as essential as physical health for law enforcement officers to effectively keep communities safe from crime and violence.
VPD conducted research on best practices of similar agencies and state-and-nationwide emerging best practices in developing a blueprint for supporting officer wellbeing. Using LEMHWA Grant funds, VPD intends to partner with two first responder-serving organizations for suicide prevention, organization-wide training, and best practice wellness support. The first organization, TAC Mobility (“TAC”), will implement a three-phase, year-long wellness strategy to address stress, burnout, and leadership challenges organization-wide. This program will include virtual and in-person neuroscience-backed content, training, and strategic follow- up/reminders. The second organization, Restoration First Responders Network (“RFRN”), will provide critical incident debriefing, peer support, and individual counseling. Through these partnerships, VPD will expand their Peer Support and Employee Assistance programs, educate and support their leadership team to foster a culture of mental well-being, and encourage the destigmatization of mental health.
FISCAL IMPACT
The proposed amendment to the City of Vallejo’s Fiscal Year 2025-2026 General Fund budget will increase revenue and expenditures by $199,135.
A local match is not required.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
This action is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) because it is not a project that 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.

SUBJECT: ADOPT A RESOLUTION AMENDING THE CITY'S FISCAL YEAR 2025-2026 GENERAL FUND BUDGET TO RECOGNIZE THE $999,729 BYRNE STATE CRISS INTERVENTION PROGRAM COHORT 2 GRANT AND APPROPRIATE EXPENDITURES THEREFROM (STEP 2 OF 2)
RECOMMENDATION
As the second in a two-step process, adopt a Resolution amending the General Fund Fiscal Year 2025-2026 budget to recognize $999,727 of revenue from the Byrne State Crisis Intervention Program Cohort 2 Grant (“SCIP Grant”) and to appropriate corresponding expenditures.
REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATION
In compliance with City Charter section 703, City staff respectfully requests that City Council amend the General Fund Fiscal Year 2025-2026 budget to reflect revenue and corresponding expenditures of $999,727 relating to the SCIP Grant, which will fund certain aspects of the IHART (Integrated Health and Resource Team) mobile crisis response program. The IHART program, which is currently operated by Felton Institute, is popular in the City of Vallejo, but there is currently no funding slated for services in fiscal year 2026- 2027. There is also limited funding for other items supporting the IHART program, such as a new community response vehicle, community engagement and other related services, and the SCIP Grant-required program evaluator. Amending the General Fund Fiscal Year 2025-2026 budget as requested herein will help close the funding gaps.
BACKGROUND AND DISCUSSION
For the past few years, the Police Department has struggled to piece together funding for the IHART program, including related equipment purchases, training, and staff time. To date, VPD has secured five grants to pilot and sustain the IHART program, including the BHJIS Grant (GPD001), FY22 Byrne Discretionary Community Project Grant (GPD008), COPS CIT Grant (GPD013), BJA Connect & Protect Grant (GPD019) and now, the SCIP Grant. Measure P funds are also being used to supplement grant funds for the City’s Fiscal Year 2025- 2026 contract with Felton Institute.
The SCIP Grant must be used in Fiscal Years 2025-2026 and 2026-2027. However, due to the prohibition of supplanting (i.e., using new grant funds to replace existing state, local, or institutional funds that have been designated for the same purpose), SCIP Grant funds cannot be used for the existing Fiscal Year 2025-2026 contract with Felton Institute. Instead, SCIP Grant funds designated for IHART services ($831,777) can – and will – only be used to fund any Fiscal Year 2026-2027 contract for salary and benefits for 4.0 F.T.E. Crisis Intervention Workers with relevant lived experience, 0.4 F.T.E. Clinical Director (Licensed Clinician or MSN),
1.0 F.T.E. Program Manager, and 0.4 F.T.E. Behavioral Health Specialist. There is currently no other funding available for a Fiscal Year 2026-2027 contract with Felton Institute.
VPD will use the remaining SCIP Grant funds ($168,350) as designated throughout both fiscal years to purchase a new community response vehicle, to provide community engagement and other related services,

and to hire the SCIP Grant-required program evaluator.
On November 4, 2025, City Council accepted the SCIP Grant, approved the Standard Grant Agreement relating thereto, authorized the City Manager’s execution of the Standard Grant Agreement, and provided notice of intent to amend the General Fund Fiscal Year 2025-2026 budget in the amount of $999,727 to recognize revenue, and appropriate corresponding expenditures, relating to the SCIP Grant.
FISCAL IMPACT
Upon approval, the City of Vallejo’s General Fund Fiscal Year 2025-2026 budget will be amended to reflect a $999,727 increase in revenue and corresponding expenditures for use by the Police Department as discussed herein. Funds not used in Fiscal Year 2025-2026 will be carried over to Fiscal Year 2026-2027.
A local match is not required.

SUBJECT: NOTICE OF INTENT TO AMEND THE FISCAL YEAR 2025-26 SOLID WASTE FUND BUDGET TO RECOGNIZE REVENUE IN THE AMOUNT OF $120,000 FOR A COMPREHENSIVE PERFORMANCE EVALUATION OF RECOLOGY VALLEJO (STEP 1 OF 2)
RECOMMENDATION
Provide Notice of Intent to amend the Fiscal Year 2025-26 Solid Waste Fund budget to recognize reimbursement from Recology Vallejo in the amount of $120,000 to cover costs of a comprehensive performance review of the City's franchise
REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATION
Recology Vallejo (Recology), the City’s Exclusive Franchise Hauler, has agreed to reimburse the City for the full cost of a comprehensive performance review and billing audit, which is expected not to exceed $120,000, as provided in Section 20.01.01 of the 2016 Franchise Agreement for Solid Waste Disposal and Recycling Services (Franchise Agreement). The billing audit and performance review will evaluate Recology’s operations over the previous three calendar years to determine compliance with the Franchise Agreement, verify billing accuracy, and assess other performance standards, ensuring accountability and protection of ratepayer interests.
The City currently has an agreement with R3 Consulting Group (R3), who assisted the City in the 2016 and 2022 Franchise Agreement negotiations. Therefore, in addition to R3's extensive knowledge of the City's Franchise Agreements, staff propose designating R3 to conduct the review and billing audit of Recology.
This Notice of Intent serves as the first step in the two-step process to amend the FY 2025-26 Solid Waste Fund budget. A detailed staff report, resolution, and recommendation to approve a First Amendment to the Agreement with R3 to increase the not-to-exceed amount from $75,000 to $195,000 to expand the existing scope of work with tasks to be completed for a comprehensive performance review will be presented to the City Council for consideration at its next regular meeting.
BACKGROUND AND DISCUSSION
Recology Vallejo (Recology) has agreed to reimburse the City for the full cost of a comprehensive performance review and billing audit, which is expected not to exceed $120,000. Section 20.01.01 of the Franchise Agreement for Solid Waste Disposal and Recycling Services (Franchise Agreement) requires Recology to cover the cost of a billing audit and performance review if a term extension is requested; however, a performance review could not be conducted prior to granting Recology the term extension in 2022 due to the urgency of amending the Franchise Agreement to incorporate provisions required for compliance with Senate Bill 1383, California's Short-Lived Climate Pollutants Reduction Strategy. The Solid Waste Fund expenditure budget will be used to cover the costs of the review, with full reimbursement to be provided by Recology as it would be a conflict of interest for the hauler to directly pay an auditor to perform its performance review.
A comprehensive performance review of the City’s exclusive hauler has not been conducted to date.
Date: December 9, 2025
Subject: NOTICE OF INTENT TO AMEND THE FISCAL YEAR 2025-26 SOLID WASTE FUND BUDGET TO RECOGNIZE REVENUE IN THE AMOUNT OF $120,000 FOR A
COMPREHENSIVE PERFORMANCE EVALUATION OF RECOLOGY VALLEJO (STEP 1 OF 2)
Jurisdictions typically complete such reviews on a ten-year cycle. As outlined in Section 20.01 of the Franchise Agreement, the purpose of a billing audit and performance review of the City’s exclusive hauler includes, but is not limited to, verifying that customer billing rates have been properly calculated and correspond to the level of service received, and evaluating compliance with performance standards such as protocols for addressing customer complaints and service interruptions.
FISCAL IMPACT
This Notice of Intent does not have any fiscal impact. A future recommended action to amend the FY 2025-26 Solid Waste Fund budget will include an increase in both the revenue and expenditure budgets of the fund.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
This action is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) because it is not a project which has potential for resulting in either a direct physical change in the environment, or a reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment, pursuant to CEQA Guidelines section 15378.

John Palesi, Water Operations Manager for Operations & Maintenance SUBJECT: ADOPT A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF VALLEJO TO APPROVE A SHORT FORM CONSTRUCTION CONTRACT WITH S2SERM, LLC, FOR ON-CALL FENCING SERVICES FOR A NOT-TO-EXCEED AMOUNT OF $740,000 AND
AUTHORIZE THE CITY MANAGER TO EXECUTE THE SAME
RECOMMENDATION
Adopt a resolution of the City Council of the City of Vallejo to approve a Short Form Construction Contract with S2SERM, LLC, for on-call fencing maintenance, repair, fabrication, and installation services in accordance with City of Vallejo Standard Specifications, for a not-to-exceed amount of $740,000 and authorize the City Manager to execute the Agreement.
REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATION
Approval of the Short Form Construction Contract with S2SERM, LLC, will address the numerous City of Vallejo fencing issues and will provide the City with as-needed, on-call fencing maintenance, repair, fabrication, and installation services to maintain compliance with City of Vallejo Standard Specifications Section 6 (Fencing) and ensuring barrier protection for City of Vallejo assets.
BACKGROUND AND DISCUSSION
In September 2025, a determination was made concerning the increasing need for maintenance, repair, fabrication, and installation of fencing owned by the City of Vallejo. To ensure compliance with City of Vallejo Standard Specifications, which establishes materials, colors, detailing, height and alignment standards for public fencing barrier protection, and in cases where the City of Vallejo Standard Specifications do not provide guidance, reference shall be given to California Landscape Standards by the California Landscape Contractors Association as well as other notable industry publications to help determine what outlines industry standards or best practices for fencing services.
The City of Vallejo Water Department and Public Works Department face ongoing staffing challenges, limiting the ability to adequately identify existing fencing issues and either replace or install fencing. Historically, fencing services have been provided by private companies to assist the City of Vallejo in identifying existing fencing issues and, with City staff approval, complete the recommended work.
The Water Department went out for formal bid for On-Call Fencing Services and only one Bidder responded.
S2SERM, LLC, was the Bidding company that provided a Bid that met all the requirements put forth by the Water and Public Works Departments.
Additional services under this agreement may include, but are not limited to: automatic gate installation, scheduled gate maintenance, fence and/or gate removal.

If during the policy period, the terms, conditions, exclusions or limitations of underlying insurance are changed in any manner, the insured shall as a condition precedent to its rights under this policy give to us as soon practicable written notice of the full particulars thereof. This policy shall become subject to any such changes upon the effective date of the changes in the underlying insurance but only upon the condition that we agree to follow such changes by written endorsement attached hereto and the insured pays when due any additional premium required by us relating to such changes and/or agrees to any amendment of the provisions of this policy required by us relating to such changes.

It is therefore understood and agreed that in case of any payment hereunder, we shall act in concert with all other interests (including the insured) concerned in the exercise of such rights of recovery. The apportioning of any amounts which may be so recovered shall follow the principle that any interests (including the insured) that shall have paid an amount over and above any payment hereunder, shall first be reimbursed up to the amount paid by them; shall then be reimbursed out of any balance then remaining up to the amount paid hereunder; lastly, the interests (including the insured) of whom this coverage is excess are entitled to claim the residue, if any.

SUBJECT: ADOPT A RESOLUTION AMENDING THE SALARY PLAN TO ADD ONE BUILDING
PLANS EXAMINER AND DELETE ONE PLAN CHECK ENGINEER
RECOMMENDATION
Adopt a resolution to amend the City’s Salary Plan by adding one Building Plans Examiner position to the IBEW salary schedule and deleting one Plan Check Engineer effective December 13, 2025.
REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATION
The addition of the Building Plans Examiner will address recruitment challenges and ensure continuity of plan review services.
BACKGROUND AND DISCUSSION
Currently, the Building Division of the Planning and Development Services Department utilizes the classification of Plan Check Engineer to perform plan review duties related to structural compliance with applicable building codes, ordinances, and regulations. The Plan Check Engineer classification requires incumbents to be registered as a Professional Engineer with the State of California. The incumbent that was hired by the City in 2019 to serve in this role separated from the City in May 2024. After the position was vacated, Human Resources conducted multiple recruitments; however, these recruitment efforts have been unsuccessful in attracting qualified applicants, primarily due to the labor market and the lack of engineers licensed across the state.
The Planning and Development Services Department requested that Human Resources review the classification. Human Resources conducted a study to determine which classification is used by comparator agencies to conduct plan review duties. It was determined that a significant number of these agencies use a “Building Plans Examiner” or “Plans Examiner” classification, which do not require the Professional Engineering designation and licensure to perform duties related to plan review. While the current classification requires Professional Engineering licensure, the general role of the position is to verify that plans meet code requirements (which is a Building function), not to perform any engineering tasks or assume design responsibility. The Building Plans Examiner classification requires appropriate industry-specific certifications through the International Code Council (ICC). Staff believe this change will assist in addressing ongoing recruitment challenges and to ensure continuity of services for the Building Division in the Planning and Development Services Department. The new classification of Building Plans Examiner was created and approved by the Civil Service Commission on September 8, 2025.
FISCAL IMPACT
The Building Division of the Planning and Development Services Department currently has one budgeted Plan Check Engineer position. Staff are requesting to delete that position, and add one Building Plans Examiner position. The estimated annual cost of the Building Plans Examiner position, including benefits, is $188,848.21 (at step 3). This change will result in a net savings of $2,943.33 for the remainder of Fiscal Year 2025-26 and a net savings of $5,045.70 annually thereafter.
Date: December 9, 2025

ACTION ITEM 8.H.
DATE: December 9, 2025
TO: Mayor and Members of the City Council
FROM: Nalungo Conley, Assistant City Manager
SUBJECT: ADOPT A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF VALLEJO AMENDING THE FISCAL YEAR 2025-26 BUDGET TO APPROPRIATE $63,783 FOR A
PROFESSIONAL SERVICES AGREEMENT WITH MICHAEL BAKER
INTERNATIONAL FOR AFFORDABLE HOUSING CONSULTANT SERVICES, TO
CREATE AN AFFORDABLE HOUSING DEVELOPMENT POLICY AND PROCEDURE
HANDBOOK AND AS NEEDED ON CALL HOUSING DEVELOPMENT SERVICES (STEP 2 OF 2)
RECOMMENDATION
Adopt a resolution amending the FY2025-26 budget to appropriate $63,783 for a Professional Services Agreement with Michael Baker International for Affordable Housing Consultant Services (Step 2 of 2)
REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATION
The consultant has the background, experience, and technical ability to provide the City of Vallejo with the best value for the cost in meeting the scope of work as outlined. Their cost per task is reasonable and allows flexibility in the execution of the contract.
The notice of intent to amend the budget was provided by the City Council at the regular City Council meeting held on November 18, 2025.
BACKGROUND AND DISCUSSION
The City of Vallejo has had numerous challenges related to the assessment, management, and implementation of affordable housing projects. In response to these challenges, the City Council requested an independent review of the processes, activities, and decisions staff carried out in its most recent project, the Broadway Village Supportive Housing Center. The review aimed to shed light on the challenges and successes of this specific project and how to use the information learned to guide future activities. City staff engaged MRG, a consultant, who provided numerous recommendations to serve as a guide for staff to utilize when engaging with affordable housing developers or implementing city- sponsored affordable housing projects. Two of MRG's recommendations were:
• Engage a Housing Development Officer for the City with expertise in affordable housing finance and oversight; and
• Create a City of Vallejo Affordable Housing Development Policy and Procedure Handbook and Underwriting Guide.
The City does not currently have a Housing Development Officer position, nor does it have the capacity to create the aforementioned policy and procedure handbook and underwriting guide. Staff issued a Request for Proposals (RFP, attached) to hire a consultant to create the handbook and guide. The City

received proposals from three firms. A panel, including City staff and an outside reviewer, reviewed the proposals and judged that Michael Baker International's proposal (attached) best met the City's needs.
Michael Baker International was founded in 1940 and has since then distinguished themselves as a leader in affordable housing and development. They have extensive experience working with cities, utilizing Community Development Block Grants, HomeKey+ funds, and other funding mechanisms to plan and build affordable housing projects. They have also assisted in the development of general housing plans as well as those focused on homelessness and climate adaptation. Michael Baker International leverages their experienced staff members to provide services directly as the Prime Consultant. By using sub-consultants infrequently, they maintain a high level of control over their work product, ensuring quality and consistency.
City staff recommend engaging Michael Baker International to create the handbook and guide and additionally engage Michael Baker International to provide as needed on call consulting to the City to perform services similar to what a Housing Development Officer would perform, particularly assessing future affordable housing projects in which the City would be participating financially and recommending whether such participation would be prudent. The City will determine in the longer term whether to continue to contract for such services or develop in house capacity to perform this work.
FISCAL IMPACT
This item is Step 2 of the two-step process to amend the fiscal year budget as required by City Charter. The amendment, if approved, will increase FY2025-26 General Fund expenditures by $63,783 to cover consultant costs of $38,783 to create the handbook and guide and $25,000 to provide on call services. Funding of the increase will come from the General Fund Unassigned Fund Balance.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
This action is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) because it is not a project which has the potential of 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.

Late proposals will not be accepted.
A. Scope of Work
Task 1: Develop a best practice framework to manage complex federal, state, regional, and local regulations governing affordable housing development and operations The selected Consultant Team will have an introductory meeting with key City staff to discuss the desired outcomes of the work that will be completed and the data points that the City would request as part of the process. The Consultant Team will work with City staff and review the specific recommendations from a report prepared by MRG (attached) to ensure that the outcomes address recommendations that were provided after an assessment of a past developer initiated affordable housing project requesting City funding assistance. The primary goal of this task is to (1) gain an understanding of the current landscape of funding and other regulations at the federal, state, regional, and local level that govern affordable housing projects which include public funding; and (2) develop processes and strategies to provide the best practices for future City affordable housing projects involving any form of public funding or ownership.
Task 2: Create Outlines for Timelines, Submittal Requirements, Review Guidelines and Process for Review of Different Types of Proposals and Service Implementation
Prepare suggested outlines for timelines, submittal requirements, review guidelines, process and other parameters for review of various types of affordable projects, e.g. developer-initiated projects requesting funding assistance, City initiated projects seeking developers.
There are a series of supportive services that also may be included in affordable housing projects.
The purpose of this task is to establish a process including a suggested timetable for vetting developer proposed or RFP sought operators, service providers and/or vendors to ensure the selection and vetting of operators, service providers or vendors do not delay the opening of the housing project or negatively impact service delivery. Both the timeline and process for evaluating these services and /or service providers to ensure a smooth process from construction to operation is critical.
Task 3: Plan for Coordination with Continuum of Care and Coordinated Entry Systems Develop a list of parameters and tasks needed to initiate coordination with the local Continuum of Care or other Coordinated Entry entities to assist with tenanting and coordination of services.
Task 4: Affordable Housing Financing
The Consultant Team will provide a matrix of Federal, State, Regional, Local, and private sources of existing and potential affordable housing funds that can be utilized for either capital projects or direct services. Recommendations on which opportunities are best leveraged together will be helpful.
Task 5: Process and Criteria for Selection of Affordable Housing Developers The Consultant Team will provide criteria to develop a competitive Request for Qualifications ("RFQ") process to identify and establish a non-binding pre-qualified list of affordable housing developers that can potentially collaborate on high-quality, cost-effective affordable housing projects. The City of Vallejo would like to be able to seek out affordable housing developers for City-initiated projects if that approach serves the needs and best interests of the City. The Consultant Team will prepare a suggested RFQ/RFP template to seek developers for any such City Initiated Projects.
Task 6: Creation of Affordable Housing Development Policy and Procedure Handbook
The Consultant Team will produce a comprehensive report that pulls together all the aforementioned tasks in a format that can serve as guidebook for City Staff in implementing Affordable Housing Development projects initiated by a developer seeking City funding participation and City initiated affordable projects in the future. In addition, the guidebook would serve as a tool in providing an actionable template and implementation matrix to developers and non-profit entities, so they are aware of the same challenges, constraints, and processes that the City will be considering moving forward. The expectation is also that the Consultant Team will also be willing to present these findings to the Housing Commission, Planning Commission, Economic Development Commission and City Council if needed and/or at the direction of the City Manager.
B. Stakeholder Engagement
The Consultant Team will be expected to engage with and gather information from the City of Vallejo staff in housing, planning and homelessness, experienced affordable housing developers, members and representatives of the unhoused and below moderate income community, members of the broader Vallejo community, and representatives of other governmental and non- governmental organizations with a mission to address affordable housing including projects designed to shelter the unhoused.
