Approve Agreement with County Radio Shop - Authorization to renew and approve a 5-year Memorandum of Understanding for City Wide radio installation, maintenance, and programming services with Tulare County Information & Communications Technology, the County’s Radio Shop, for an estimated $225,000 over a 5-year period.
Prepared by:
Chief Jason Salazar, 559-713-4215, [email protected]; Financial Analyst, Liz Ybarra, 559-713-4250, [email protected]; Police Specialist Dex Valencia, 559-713-4655, [email protected] Department Recommendation:
Authorization to renew and approve a 5-year Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) for city wide radio installation, maintenance, and programming services with Tulare County Information & Communications Technology (TCICT), the County’s Radio Shop, for an estimated $225,000 over a 5- year period.
Summary:
The MOU, signed in 2020, has expired and requires renewal. TCICT’s Radio Shop provides services to County Departments and to other local agencies, as their schedule allows. The Visalia Police & Fire Departments uses the radio shop extensively; however, the MOU covers all City Departments that require radio shop services. The cost of services for FY 25/26 is $105.00 for hourly labor plus the actual cost of parts and supplies plus a 10% administrative fee. The hourly rate is adjusted annually, according to the approved County cost allocation plan as approved by the State of California. This new MOU expires on 6/30/2030.
Background Discussion:
The Police and Fire Department uses TCICT for the maintenance of all handheld and car radios, antennas, batteries, battery chargers, and channel programming for the various assignments. The Department is required to use TCICT for radio programing in order to input and mark radio identifiers on all handheld and in car radios. This function needs to be updated as officers move into different assignments and different functions within the Department. The City’s Fleet Department does have contracts with other vendors, such as LEHR in Sacramento and Cooks Communications in Fresno, that can provide other electrical fleet services for our units. The Fleet manager determines the most cost-effective method to have our fleet vehicles serviced and TCICT is just one of those options.
TCICT programs all radios and does a variety of other radio maintenance for all surrounding agencies including Farmersville PD, Exeter PD, Woodlake PD, and Tulare PD. The benefits of using TCICT include:
1. Inter-agency unification - All other local agencies utilize TCICT to program their radios; Visalia City Council Page 1 of 2 Printed on 6/13/2025
powered by Legistar™846
File #: 25-0237 Agenda Date: 6/16/2025 Agenda #: 17.
1. Inter-agency unification - All other local agencies utilize TCICT to program their radios; therefore, there is no risk of duplicating identifiers on the same radio channel.
2. Cost - TCICT’s hourly rate is $105.00, and the next nearest vendor located in Fresno is $165.00 an hour.
3. Location - TCICT is in Visalia and the nearest other vendor that can perform the same functions is in Fresno.
Fiscal Impact:
No new impact on budget but a new service contract is required and prior contract C21028 closed.
Expenditure is budgeted during the biennial budget process as each Department budgets for their operations. The annual budget for Police is $30,000 and Fire’s budget is $10,000. There are other Departments that require the use of TCICT and a budget is included in the 5-year projection of $225,000.
Prior Council Action: None.
Other: N/A
Alternatives: None recommended.
Recommended Motion (and Alternative Motions if expected):
I move to renew and approve a five (5) year Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) for City Wide radio installation, maintenance, and programming services with Tulare County Information & Communications Technology (TCICT), the County’s Radio Shop, for an estimated $225,000 over a 5- year period.

Historic Preservation Advisory Committee Reappointments - Reappoint Kim Lusk to a first twoyear term, reappoint Karen Ayala to a second two-year term, and reappoint Jay Hohlbauch to a third two-year term, on the Historic Preservation Advisory Committee.
Deadline for Action: 6/30/2025
Submitting Department: Community Development
Contact Name and Phone Number:
Tyler Davis, Chairperson, Historic Preservation Advisory Committee Cristobal Carrillo, Associate Planner, (559) 713-4443, [email protected] <mailto:[email protected]>
Paul Bernal, Community Development Director, 713-4025 [email protected] <mailto:[email protected]>
Department Recommendation:
Staff recommends that the City Council accept the recommendation of the Historic Preservation Advisory Committee (HPAC) and take the following actions:
1. Reappoint Kim Lusk to the Committee for a first full two-year term, beginning July 1, 2025, and ending June 30, 2027. Please note on July 15, 2024, the City Council appointed Ms. Lusk to a partial term on the HPAC beginning July 15, 2024, and ending June 30, 2025, to fill the remaining term of Committee member Walter Deissler who resigned from the committee.
2. Reappoint Karen Ayala to the Committee for a second two-year term beginning July 1, 2025, and ending June 30, 2027.
3. Reappoint Jay Hohlbauch to the Committee for a third two-year term beginning July 1, 2025, and ending June 30, 2027. Please note, Mr. Hohlbauch has already served for 5 out of the maximum 6 years allowed for a committee appointment. However, the request for a two-year term is intended to maintain the 4/3 split of committee member term expirations between oddand even-numbered years, which was re-established by adjusting one of Mr. Hohlbauch’s previous terms in 2022 from 2 years to 1 year.
Summary:
The HPAC currently has six seated members out of seven available positions. The reappointments of all three members will allow the Committee to continue to pursue its mission to protect historical resources in the City of Visalia and will maintain the 4/3 split of committee member term expirations between odd- and even numbered years.

powered by Legistar™869
File #: 25-0255 Agenda Date: 6/16/2025 Agenda #: 20.
Background Discussion:
The HPAC is a seven-member committee which administers the Historic Preservation Ordinance and encourages property owners to maintain the historic character of their properties. The Committee meets on the second and fourth Wednesdays of the month.
The HPAC currently operates with six active members. The HPAC is currently working on updating the Historic Recognition Program, which awards plaques to significant and/or well-maintained historic structures, and completing a survey of the Historic District and adjacent areas. The appointments will ensure that the Committee retains a sufficient quorum to continue to conduct project reviews and to also bring their long-range projects to completion. Also, if the nomination of Mr. Hohlbauch is approved, it will maintain the 4/3 split of committee member term expirations between odd- and evennumbered years. This will have the effect of extending Mr. Hohlbauch’s total committee appointment to 7 years, one more than allowed by Committee guidelines. However, term limits are ultimately at the discretion of the City Council. It should be noted that members of the Planning Commission and Parks & Recreation Commission serve for up to 8 years, so the length of appointment is not unusual.
Furthermore, Hohlbauch has a unique knowledge base that is of great use to the HPAC, being the only member on the Committee that is a licensed general contractor.
Information about each of the candidates is provided below:
· Jay Hohlbauch previously served a combined total of 11 years on the HPAC, from July 2013 to June 2019, and July 2020 to June 2025. Mr. Hohlbauch currently works as a general contractor and has a wide breadth of knowledge in the care and maintenance of historic structures. Coupled with his extensive experience serving as a member of the HPAC, Mr.
Hohlbauch’s continued service on the HPAC would be a boon for the Committee, as no other members currently work in construction. Mr. Hohlbauch is also a member of the HPAC SubCommittee tasked with working with the Building Advisory Committee. · Karen Ayala is an elementary school physical education teacher with the Porterville Unified School District and has worked in the teaching profession for eight years. Ms. Ayala obtained a Bachelor of Science degree from California State University Fresno and received a teaching credential from Fresno Pacific University. Ms. Ayala is active as a member of Visalia Heritage, a local historical group, and volunteers her time with Valley Oak SPCA. Ms. Ayala is also fluent in Spanish and was influential in efforts to translate HPAC pamphlets and public notices to Spanish. Ms. Ayala is the current Vice Chair of the HPAC and resides in a residence located within the Historic District.
· Kim Lusk is a semi-retired teacher and administrator with the Visalia Unified School District (VUSD), who served with the District for 32 years. Ms. Lusk graduated from Fresno State University with a bachelor’s degree in liberal arts and a master’s degree in education administration. Ms. Lusk was active during her time with the VUSD volunteering with the Facilities/Building Committee and serving as the chair of the Measure A Committee. Ms. Lusk also served on the Visalia Unified Teachers Association Political Action Committee, conducting public outreach and assisting with school board campaigns. Currently Ms. Lusk is active with the Assistance League of Visalia, providing clothing and books to underserved children in Visalia City Council Page 2 of 4 Printed on 6/13/2025

Tulare County.
The current HPAC membership is as follows:
1. Tyler Davis, Chair - 3rd term
2. Jay Hohlbauch - 2nd term
3. Karen Ayala - 1st term
4. Jerome Melgar - 2nd term
5. Kim Lusk - partial 1st term
6. Erick Arriaga - 1st term
7. Vacant (previously filled by Michael Tomola who resigned April 2025) With these reappointments, two out of the six HPAC members will reside within the Historic District (Mr. Davis and Ms. Ayala).
Fiscal Impact: None.
Prior Council Action:
· Appointed Erick Arriaga to the Committee for a partial first term, beginning October 21, 2024, and ending June 30, 2026.
· Appointed Karen Ayala to the Committee for a first two-year term, beginning July 1, 2023, and ending June 30, 2025.
· Appointed Kim Lusk to the Committee for a partial first term, completing the remaining term of former Committee member Walter Deissler, beginning July 15, 2024, and ending June 30, 2025.
· On June 20, 2022, the City Council reappointed Jay Hohlbauch to the Committee for a oneyear term beginning July 1, 2022, and ending June 30, 2023. The request to only appoint Mr.
Hohlbauch for one year at that time was the result of a disproportionate number of committee members with terms expiring in even years. Once approved by the City Council, the term expirations reverted back to a 4/3 split, with three terms expiring in odd years and four terms expiring in even years. Hohlbauch was later reappointed to a full two-year term by the City Council on June 19, 2023.
Alternatives:
The City Council may direct staff to initiate the recruitment process for Historic Preservation Advisory Committee members immediately.
Recommended Motions (and Alternative Motions if expected):
· I move to reappoint Kim Lusk to a first two-year term, beginning July 1, 2025, and ending June 30, 2027, and
· I move to reappoint Karen Ayala to a second two-year term, beginning July 1, 2025, and Visalia City Council Page 3 of 4 Printed on 6/13/2025

File #: 25-0255 Agenda Date: 6/16/2025 Agenda #: 20.

3 INTRODUCTION
Dear Citizen,
This packet has been prepared to inform you of how you can be involved in local government through citizen advisory committees or commissions. It includes basic information about the purpose and responsibilities, qualifications for membership and how to apply for a city committee or commission.
By serving on a city advisory committee or commission, you can help plan Visalia's future. These committees and commissions are making recommendations that affect life in Visalia. It is important that prospective members understand the functions and responsibilities of membership before actively seeking appointment. A great deal of personal satisfaction can be received through public service, and the knowledge and experience gained will be invaluable to you.
If you are interested in serving on a committee or commission, please fill out the application included in this booklet. Feel free to include a resume or other information you feel would help the City Council to decide which committee or commission could best use your expertise. Information about specific vacancies is published annually by the City. For further information or additional application forms contact the City Clerk’s Office, 220 N. Santa Fe, Visalia, CA 93292 or call (559) 713-4512 or visit our website at www.visalia.city
We welcome your attendance at any of our committee or commission meetings. Please see a listing of all committees/commissions and their meeting schedules at the end of this document and feel free to contact the staff representative for further information.
The City Council also encourages your participation and involvement at City Council meetings. The City Council meets on the first and third Mondays at 7:00 p.m., located at the City Hall Council Chambers, 707 W. Acequia. The Council Members are as follows:

Steve Nelsen, Mayor
City of Visalia

4 THE COMMITTEE AND COMMISSION’S ROLE,
AUTHORITY AND RESPONSIBILITIES
The role of city committees and commissions is to advise the City Council in the determination of city policies and procedures. Committees/commissions facilitate public participation.
City committees and commissions are not involved in the administration or operation of city departments.
Committee/commission members may not direct administrative staff to initiate programs.
Committees/commissions may not conduct major studies or establish official policy without the approval of the City Council. City staff members are available to provide general staff assistance to committees/commissions.
Despite committees/commissions differing tasks, all share some basic responsibilities. Members need to stay informed on subjects of interest to the specific committee or commission.
Appointment to a commission or committee is an honor. It provides an opportunity for genuine public service. Each commission or committee member should be aware of the responsibilities that go along with officially serving the community. The specific duties of each commission or committee vary with the purposes for which it was formed. There are, however, many responsibilities common to all members.
1. Understand the role and responsibility of the commission or committee on which you serve. Be informed of its functions, work programs and relationship with other commissions/committees.
2. Represent the overall public good, not the exclusive point of view of a single group or interest.
3. Keep all lines of communication open. Each member serves as a communication link between the community, the City Council and the staff.
4. Do your homework and be prepared. Commission and committee members should become familiar with items under consideration prior to meetings in order to be fully prepared to discuss, evaluate, and act on matters scheduled for consideration. Feel free to seek staff’s advice and assistance in advance of a meeting.
5. Establish a good working relationship with fellow members, the Council, and your staff representative.
6. Understand the scope and authority of your responsibility and strive to work within that scope.
7. Be a participant, an active representative and be enthusiastic.
8. Commission/committee members should not approve projects that violate adopted City policies.
These bodies make recommendations to the Council about exceptions to or recommendations to change existing policies when appropriate.
877
5 COMMITTEE AND COMMISSION GUIDELINES
Formation of a new Committee or Commission by the City Council Unless otherwise stated by Council, a committee or commission shall be formed initially for a period of one year with time extended at the request of the committee/commission and concurrence of the Council.
After a one-year evaluation and if the committee/commission is to continue, the length of terms will be increased, and the expiration of terms will be staggered.
A newly formed committee or commission will be convened by the city staff representative, and each committee/commission will elect a chairperson, a vice-chairperson, and a secretary once the members feel sufficiently acquainted with each other.
A staff representative will be assigned by the City Manager to work with each committee/commission to prepare agendas, keep minutes and furnish assistance.
The size of commissions and committees may vary from 5 to 15 members and is set for each body by the City Council. A committee or commission may decide that it is in the best interest of the committee/commission to modify the number of its members and may recommend a change to the Citizens Advisory Committee. After the Citizens Advisory Committee receives a recommendation from the committee/commission along with reason(s), a recommendation to modify the number of members will be made to the City Council.
Each Committee or Commission should have a mission statement. Ex: “It is the mission of the Citizens Advisory Committee to act as a liaison between the general public and the City Council concerning community issues.”
Commissions are provided for in the City of Visalia’s Charter and the duties of the Commissions are contained in the City’s Municipal Code. The formation of a new Commission requires a Charter Amendment. Revision to Commission duties and responsibilities require an Ordinance change.
Appointment of Citizens to Committees/Commissions
All appointments and reappointments require formal action of the Council. Every committee/commission serves in an advisory capacity to the City Council.
Names to be considered for appointment will be recommended to the Council by the respective committee or commission. The Council may choose, however, to fill some positions in other manners as needed.
Persons in the community wanting to serve on an advisory committee/commission should submit their name and resume to the City Clerk’s Office (a standard application form is available and included in this handbook). The City Clerk will annually publish a notice of the process and procedure to be followed by individuals wanting to serve the City.
878
6 Applications will be kept on file for a period of two years. Applicants will be contacted one year after they file their application to ensure their continued interest in serving on a City committee or commission.
Eligibility
City advisory committees/commissions will reflect, to the extent possible, the community's geographic, ethnic, gender and age composition.
Appointees to committees/commissions should be 18 years of age or older, and live or work within the urban area of Visalia as defined by Visalia Unified School District’s boundary map. First consideration will be given to residents of the City of Visalia. Individuals under the age of 18 who indicate they are interested in participating are encouraged to attend meetings and participate as a member of the public.
Additional requirements may be applicable to a specific Committee or Commission.
No person should serve on more than one committee or commission at one time as a regular member or as an alternate. However, individuals with unique qualifications may be asked to serve on an additional committee/commission by the City Council.
Immediate family members may not concurrently serve on the same committee or commission; however, family members are encouraged to serve on different committees/commissions.
Employees of the City of Visalia may not serve on any committee/commission other than as a staff representative. Employees of companies who do business with the City of Visalia are encouraged to serve on committees/commissions other than those where the actions of the committee/commission may directly benefit the work of the member’s employer.
In accordance with Government Code Section 87200, planning commissioners are mandated to file Fair Political Practices Commission Form 700 Statement of Economic Interests upon assuming office, annually, and upon leaving office.
Government Code Section 53235 (AB 1234) requires that planning commissioners complete required ethics training within one year of assuming office and every two years thereafter.
Term Limits and Replacement Process
Term length for all members of Committees/Commissions is standardized to two-year terms. All terms begin on July 1
st and end on June 30th
.
Each committee member may serve three (3) two-year terms (for a total of six years). After serving for six years on a committee, a person must remain off for one year before reapplying to that same committee.
This does not prohibit the person from immediately applying to a different committee or commission.
Each commissioner (Planning and Parks and Recreation Commissions) may serve four (4) two-year terms (for a total of eight years). After serving for eight years on a commission, a person must remain off for one year before reapplying to that same commission. This does not prohibit the person from immediately applying to a different commission or committee.
879
7 Because member turnover may periodically cause some difficulty in obtaining a quorum, a member’s term may be temporarily extended for an additional six months by the committee.
Appropriate recognition will be made of services when a term is completed, and a member leaves a committee or commission. This recognition will be made by the committee/commission with the help of the staff representative.
Scheduled Vacancies: To comply with the Maddy Act, on or before December 31st of each year, the City Clerk’s Office publishes the Local Appointment List informing the public of all scheduled vacancies for the upcoming year. The list is posted on the City’s website, at all City Hall posting boards, and at the public library.
Resignations: Members resigning from a committee or commission should submit a letter of resignation to the Mayor, City Clerk and the secretary of their committee or commission.
Reappointments: When a member is eligible for another term, the committee/commission will present a recommendation to the City Council asking for reappointment of the member. Reappointments are not automatic; the City Council makes the final determination on all appointments and reappointments.
Unscheduled Vacancies: The public will be informed regarding all unscheduled vacancies within 20 days after the vacancy occurs and at least 10 days before the vacancy is filled. Postings of unscheduled vacancies will be made by the City Clerk’s office by posting the vacancy on the City’s website, on the City Hall posting boards, the public library, through a press release, and an announcement included in the Inside City Hall newsletter.
Filling Unscheduled Vacancies with Alternates: For committees/commissions with membership under 12, a maximum of two (2) alternates may be, but are not required to be, appointed to a committee/commission by the Council and designated as alternate 1 and alternate 2. For committees/commissions with memberships of 12 or more, a maximum of four (4) alternates may be appointed and designated alternates 1, 2, 3, 4.
Once appointed as an alternate, the advance process can occur automatically, without any further confirmation by the Council, unless the Council specifically asks for a position to be brought before them for consideration. When an unscheduled vacancy occurs, alternate 1 may automatically advance to the voting position, and alternate 2 will become alternate 1. If an alternate serves more than half of an unexpired term, it will be considered a full term. If a committee/commission prefers to recommend a different approach to filling unscheduled vacancies with alternates, Council approval must be obtained.
Alternates do not automatically advance to a voting position at the end of a member’s term. When a term ends, the alternates and all other applicants are to be considered for appointment to the committee/commission and recommended to the City Council for final appointment.
Attendance
880
8 Advisory body members are expected to attend meetings regularly. Conscientious attendance is a fundamental responsibility, as irregular attendance lessens one’s ability to study all aspects of items under consideration. It is important to notify staff of any absences for the purposes of determining a quorum.
Members are required to notify the staff liaison no later than 24 hours prior to any regular meeting of his/her intent not to attend said meeting.
Excessive absenteeism, which is defined to mean missing three consecutive regular meetings or four regular meetings in a 12-month period, shall constitute resignation of the member and the member shall be considered removed from the advisory body. In the event a meeting is cancelled because of a lack of quorum, the member(s) whose lack of attendance caused the cancellation will be counted, even though no meeting occurred.
Tardiness and early departure of more than 30 minutes in a meeting is considered an absence.
A Council sub-committee, comprised of the Mayor and Vice Mayor, may grant an exemption to the attendance policy or approve an extended leave of absence for members of City Committees/Commissions, based on individual circumstances.
The attendance policy becomes effective April 1, 2012, and April 2012 begins the first month in the 12- month attendance counting period.
Compensation
The members of the Planning Commission receive a $100 monthly stipend and paid conferences and training. Planning Commissioners do not receive city health benefits.
All other committee and commission members receive no compensation, stipend or benefits of any kind.
Actual and necessary expenditures incurred by members, while engaged in official commission or committee business, may be reimbursed to said members, provided such expenditures have been previously approved by the department head responsible for staffing the commission or committee.
Planning Commissioners and Parks and Recreation Commissioners will be provided business cards at the city’s expense at the request of the member. This is not available to committee members.
Removal
Commissioners and Committee members may be removed from office, upon the recommendation of any member of the City Council, and with the concurrence of a majority of the City Council, for breach of duty, for conduct unbecoming a public official of the city, for violation of the city’s code of ethics, or for any cause deemed warranted by a majority of the City Council.
Meeting Notices
Effective January 1, 2012, each Committee/Commission will provide notice of each meeting, including 881
9 special meetings, on the City’s web site. Committee/commission members, media representatives and any other interested persons who so requests will be notified in advance of time and place of each meeting. Meetings are open to the public and must follow the posting guidelines of the Brown Act.
The City Council is to receive all notices of meetings, agendas and minutes.
These guidelines may be waived or changed at the discretion of the Council. The Council has the discretion to make appointments outside of this stated policy. Statutory committees and commissions are separate from these guidelines to the degree required by State Law, City Charter or Ordinance Code. 882
10 ORGANIZATION
Regular Meetings
Regular meetings are held for most of the city’s committees and commissions. An exception would be committees that meet as needed or “on-call” or committees that convene on an occasional basis.
Agendas of all regular meetings must be posted for public review at least 72 hours prior to the meeting.
The official posting place of agendas is at City Hall West (707 W. Acequia), and the city’s web page www.visalia.city . Notices may also be posted at City Hall East (315 E. Acequia) or Administration (220 N.
Santa Fe)
Adjourned Regular Meetings
If for any reason the business to be considered at the regular meeting cannot be completed, the committee or commission may then adjourn to a specified time and location. A notice announcing the adjournment must be posted within twenty-four hours after the time of adjournment.
Special Meetings
If it is necessary to meet at a time or date that is not the regular meeting schedule, a Special Meeting may be called by the advisory body. A Special Meeting may also be called in order to discuss an important issue that needs to be addressed immediately. Notice of special meetings must be received by members and posted at City Hall and on the City’s web page at least 24 hours in advance of the meeting. Only the business set forth in the agenda may be considered at the meeting.
Agenda
At least 72 hours before a regular meeting, an agenda shall be publicly posted which specifies the time and location of the meeting and contains a brief general description of each item of business to be transacted or discussed at the meeting.
Minutes
Minutes of all meetings must be kept as a permanent record by the committee/commission’s staff representative. The minutes should be taken and prepared by the committee/commission’s secretary with the assistance of the staff representative. Written minutes, upon approval by the committee or commission, constitute the official record of its activities. Additions and correction of the minutes may be made only in public meetings, with the approval of the body, and not by the private request of individual members. Minutes are not verbatim but are instead, action minutes, which record the essence of the decision made and significant action taken.
883
11 Annual Reports
Each Committee and Commission shall submit an annual report to the City Council. The annual report should include the number of meetings held, approximate number of citizens attending, accomplishments for the year, goals for the next year, and any other significant areas of which the Council should be aware.
Parliamentary Procedure
In order for a commission/committee to meet, conduct business and take action, a quorum must be present. A quorum is generally defined as a majority (one more than half) of appointed members to the particular advisory body. Meetings of commission/committees are generally operated according to parliamentary procedure using Roberts Rules of Order as a guideline. Each body may establish additional rules, limit debate and eject unruly persons if necessary.
The use of Parliamentary Procedure…
➢ Promotes cooperation and harmony so that people can work together more effectively to accomplish their goals.
➢ Guarantees each individual an equal right to propose motions, speak, ask questions and vote. ➢ Protects the rights of minority points of view and gives the minority the same consideration and respect as those in the majority.
➢ Encourages the full and free discussion of every motion presented. ➢ Ensures that the meeting is fair and conducted in good faith.
Commission/committee action is taken by motion. Motions go through the following general steps:
1. The member making the motion asks to be recognized by the chair;
2. The member makes the motion… “I move…”;
3. Another member seconds the motion (if there is no second, the motion dies and is not voted upon);
4. The chairperson states the motion or if he is not clear asks the member making the motion to re-state the motion;
5. The chairperson asks if there is any discussion on the motion;
6. When the chairperson determines that there is no more discussion on the motion, the debate is closed;
7. The chairperson puts the motion to a vote.
The vote on a motion may take the form of “all in favor” so state, “all opposed” so state, which is called a commission/committee vote. If members prefer, the vote may take the form of a voice or roll call vote.
The Brown Act prohibits voting or taking action by secret ballot.
Appointment of Officers
Annually, each Committee/Commission shall elect a Chairperson, Vice Chairperson, and Secretary from their members. Commissions may have a staff person appointed as secretary. 884
12 Role of the Chairperson and Vice Chairperson
During meetings, the chairperson is responsible for overseeing the public debate in a manner that encourages input while facilitating the decision-making process.
The chairperson should limit the discussion and debate to the particular scope of responsibility of the group and should ensure that all individuals have the opportunity to speak. The chairperson should expedite the business of the commission/committee by making sure that the discussion does not go offtrack or bog down on peripheral issues.
In the event that the chairperson is not present at the meeting, the meeting will be chaired by the vicechairperson and all duties of the chairperson will transfer to the vice-chair during the chairperson’s absence.
Role of the Secretary
The secretary is responsible for recording the actions at the meeting and keeping the attendance record of the advisory body. A staff person may assist with this duty, if needed. The secretary should prepare the action minutes as soon after the meeting as possible and review them with the staff person prior to submitting to the committee for approval. The staff person is the “keeper” of the committee’s agendas, action minutes and attendance records.
Role of the Members
The committee/commission members serve as the “workers” by providing ideas, suggestions, and perspectives that may not have been considered by the City Council, chairperson and staff.
Role of the Alternate
Alternates are not regular members of the committee or commission, and while encouraged to attend, they are not voting members and should not be accorded the same rights and privileges as voting members.
Role of the Staff Representative
The City Manager appoints staff representatives to serve each of the committees and commissions. The staff representative provides information, support services and facilitates communication between the committee, the City Council and city management.
The duties of the staff representative shall include:
1. Reserve and prepare a meeting location that is available to the general public and accessible to the handicapped throughout the entire meeting.
885
13 2. Secure the location when the meeting is completed.
3. Assure that the committee/commission maintains the established meeting schedule.
4. Monitor the committee/commission membership and assist members in filling open positions, notifying the City Clerk’s Office promptly when an unscheduled vacancy occurs and when an alternate is promoted to regular member status.
5. Act as a resource for questions or inquiries generated by members of the committee or commission.
6. Act as liaison between the committee/commission and the City of Visalia.
7. Make proper meeting notifications, in accordance with the Brown Act, and make certain that all meetings are conducted in accordance with all laws.
8. Make certain that all documents related to the committee/commission are current and reflect the present operational status of the committee or commission.
9. Assist the Secretary in preparation of the action minutes; the staff person is the official “keeper” of the agendas, back-up materials, and action minutes
10. Oversee preparation and presentation of the required year-end summary to the City Council.
11. Perform other duties as assigned by the City Manager, Department Head or City Council.
12. Maintain a list of terms of the committee/commission members. 886
14 GUIDELINES FOR RELATIONS WITH OTHERS
Relations with Fellow Commission/Committee Members
Cooperation among fellow commission/committee members plays an important role in the successful efforts of these groups. In order to build consensus around common goals and objectives, members should first show a willingness to objectively define the issues at hand and then work to reconcile opposing viewpoints. When commissioners/committee members interact positively, the group as a whole will be more effective. Important points to keep in mind in working with other commission/committee members:
1. Respect an individual’s viewpoint even though it may be different from your own;
2. Allow other members adequate time to present their view before making comments;
3. Be open and honest;
4. Welcome new commission/committee members and help them become acquainted with the commission/committee.
5. Accept responsibility, voice opinions and be fair and factual.
Relations with Council
The primary responsibility of commissions/committees is to advise and make recommendations to the Council. It is the Council’s role to absorb the advice and recommendations offered by numerous sources and to make decisions to the best of its ability. Because the Council is in such a position to see the broader context and is aware of other concerns, it may not always follow the recommendation offered by individual commissions/committees.
Relations with Staff
The staff representative’s role is valuable to the success of the commission/committee. They do research and provide relevant information that enhances a commission/committee’s ability to get things done. Staff is available to answer questions and follow-up on items brought before the commission/committee.
However, members should be aware that the staff representatives are there as liaisons, assisting the members of the commission/committee by gathering information when needed or requested, submitting recommendations of the commission/committee to the Council, etc. Staff representatives must sustain a balance between their role as a liaison and as a city employee. Commission/committee members must be sensitive to the unique and vital relationships that staff representatives must maintain.
Relations with Media and Public Statements
Commissioners and Committee members should not make public statements as a spokesperson for the City of Visalia or of their particular committee/commission. Any statement made reflects the opinion of that particular member only. Any inquiries regarding city committees or commission matters should be referred to the staff representative and/or the Community Relations Manager. 887

Planning Commission Reappointments - Recommendation to reappoint Bill Davis and Chris Tavarez to serve on the Planning Commission and to authorize Staff to begin a recruitment due to a pending resignation.
Prepared by: Leslie B. Caviglia, City Manager, [email protected] <mailto:[email protected]> 559-713-4332
Department Recommendation: It is recommended that the Visalia City Council reappoint Bill Davis to serve a second term on the Planning Commission and Chris Tavarez to serve a third term on the Commission. Both terms would commence July 1, 2025 through June 30, 2027. However, Mr.
Tavarez recently submitted his resignation subject to the appointment of his replacement. Therefore, staff also recommends that the City Council direct staff to begin a recruitment for a Planning Commissioner who would replace Mr. Tavarez.
Summary: Both Mr. Davis and Mr. Tavarez have been engaged Commissioners who have had good attendance at Commission meetings. Given that the City will be embarking on the General Plan update in the coming year, having experienced people on the Commission with a background in planning and the community would be very helpful. While there will be some transition during the General Plan process, having experienced Commissioners going through the majority of the process will likely lead to a higher level of conversation and solid understanding of these complex issues associated with a major General Plan update.
As noted above, due to work related circumstances, Mr. Tavarez has submitted his resignation effective upon a replacement being selected. Therefore, staff is recommending that he be reappointed, with the understanding that he will serve and help ensure a quorum is retained at all meetings until the Council selects a replacement. Staff is therefore also recommending that a recruitment begin immediately for a Planning Commissioner. All new applications and all current applications on file will be presented to the City Council and interviews will be held with some or all of the Planning Commission applicants. The final decision of the successful candidate is at the discretion of the City Council. The person would fill the unexpired term of Mr. Tavarez, which will end June 30, 2027.
Background Discussion:
The City Charter calls for the City Council to appoint a 5-person Planning Commission to handle the following:
(a) Recommend to the Council, after a public hearing thereon, the adoption, amendment or repeal of a General Plan or any part thereof, for the physical development of the City (b) Exercise such functions with respect to land subdivisions, planning and zoning as may be prescribed by ordinance or resolution

Agenda Item Wording:
Contested Special Assessments - Authorization to allow the City of Visalia to place items contested during the June 2, 2025, public hearing on the Miscellaneous Special Assessments on the Tulare County secured property tax roll.
Prepared by: Ruth Pena, Financial Analyst 559-713-4327, [email protected]; Renee Nagel, Finance Director 559-713-4375, [email protected]
Department Recommendation: Staff is recommending that the Council adopt Resolution 2025-40, authorizing the City of Visalia to place items contested during the June 2, 2025, public hearing on the Miscellaneous Special Assessments on the Tulare County secured property tax roll.
Summary:
During the Public Hearing held on June 2, 2025, seven individuals objected to eight of the proposed tax roll assessments. Six property owners spoke in person at the public hearing and one property owner contested one proposed assessment in a conversation with City staff prior to the start of the meeting. Staff was directed to examine the assessments further and return with recommendations.
Of the eight contested items, three are being recommended to be placed on the Miscellaneous Special Assessments of the Tulare County secured property tax roll for collection for the original assessed amount, two are recommended at a modified assessed amount and three are recommended to be removed from the tax roll.
Background Discussion:
Public Hearing Process
In general, the current process of holding a public hearing to determine whether to place certain assessments, fines and delinquent costs on the tax roll is a limited process. The only issue to be considered by the Council is whether the assessment or fine is owed and the code procedure followed, not reviewing the background or cause of the assessment in the first instance. In all cases, an administrative appeal hearing process has been provided to determine the substance of the issue, and there is no further appeal to the City Council.
Pursuant to Visalia Municipal Code Sections 15.44.040 and 8.40.060, administrative costs associated with overseeing the abatement of the conditions constituting a public nuisance (including the cost of inspections) may be assessed and made a lien on the real property where the public nuisance exists or existed.
The City has put in place an administrative enforcement procedure (Visalia Municipal Code Chapter
1.13) that allows property owners to appeal both the determination that a nuisance exists as well as Visalia City Council Page 1 of 6 Printed on 6/13/2025
powered by Legistar™900
File #: 25-0238 Agenda Date: 6/16/2025 Agenda #: 1.
the assessment of inspection fees through an administrative process, culminating in a hearing before an Administrative Hearing Officer, which results in a final Administrative Enforcement Order. Under this process, if the appellant disagrees with the Hearing Officer’s decision, the appellant has 90 days to appeal the decision to the Superior Court - there is no appeal to the City Council.
Only after all administrative and court appeals periods have expired is the City authorized to place unpaid fines and abatement fees (including inspection fees) on the Tulare County property tax roll for collection.
Following this process, the Finance Department presented the Council on June 2, 2025, Resolution 2025-17, to place unpaid fees on the Tulare County property tax roll for collection. The fees are from cases for which the property owner has not appealed within the statutory time frame.
Payments can be made by June 30, 2025, to avoid the assessment being placed on the tax roll.
The review of all contested items has allowed staff to work with property owners to reach solutions which minimize the tax roll amount. As summarized in Table 1: Summary of Staff Recommendations for Contested Tax Roll Amounts, staff is recommending that the full lien amount possible of $44,195.31 be placed on the tax roll. This amount may be reduced at a later date, contingent upon property owner’s performance under the Stipulated Agreements discussed below.

The owner of the properties above (items #9 and #10) has hired 4-Creeks Engineering to assist with the issues at both addresses. Staff confirmed that plans have been submitted on both parcels by 4- Creeks Engineering.

The customer stated that her significant other would pay their bills and has been unable to access her mailbox. The customer states that she was unaware of her delinquent balance and has requested a payment plan to be arranged.
Previous account history has shown that this customer experienced a similar situation last year.
The customer was mailed a Notice of Public Hearing on April 17, 2024, and was tax rolled $388.26 on August 31,2024.
The customer utilized our customer payment portal on October 29, 2024 and April 22, 2025 to submit payments, totaling $129.63. The customer’s login information for our portal is the email we have on file, which was confirmed at the Public Hearing on June 2, 2025. In addition, when a customer portal is accessed, the customer’s account balance is displayed.
Furthermore, the customer has experienced an issue with returned mail and failed to contact our office to discuss the matter. On November 27, 2024, Utility Billing staff updated the customer’s account settings so that the customer would receive a printed invoice and an email 910
with a pdf copy of her monthly invoices. As mentioned above, the email address on file matches the information provided during the Public Hearing. In summary, if the customer was unable to access her mailbox, she was receiving her monthly invoice via email.

Fiscal Year 2025-26 Rates and Fees - Public Hearing and Adoption of Resolution 2025-08 to authorize proposed new fees, increases, and adjustments to the City's Rates and Fees Schedule for Fiscal Year 2025-26.
Prepared by: Jana Ferguson, Financial Analyst, 559-713-4429, [email protected]; Renee Nagel, Finance Director 559-713-4375, [email protected] Department Recommendation
Staff recommends that City Council takes the following action tonight:
1. Conduct a Public Hearing to receive testimony on additions, changes, and deletions to the City's Rates & Fees Schedule
2. Adopt Resolution 2025-08 to amend the City's fee document for the FY 2025-26; and
3. If desired, take action on specific fees, such as:
a. Fee increases exceeding CPI
b. Adjusted fees
c. All fees
Summary:
Annually, fees are recommended for cost-of-living adjustments for the upcoming fiscal year. City ordinances limit annual Impact Fees and Business Tax adjustments to specific CPI indices. These annual inflationary adjustments help departments cover their costs and reduce the burden on the General Fund, allowing the fund to support operations, including public safety.
Background Discussion:
Proposed new fees, increases, and adjustments for FY 2025-26 Rates & Fees include, but are not limited to, animal services, parks and recreation, transit, fire, police, and finance.
The California Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers (CCPI-U) is the basis for most fee adjustments for the City. City ordinances require Impact Fees to use the building industry standard index, the Engineering News Record Construction Cost Index (ENRCCI). Similarly, City ordinance dictates that the Business Tax be adjusted by the US City Average for All Items (USVPI-U), using the average of the most recent three years. Table 1: Index Period Changes lists the indices and effective dates.

During the June 2, 2025, City Council meeting, several questions were raised by Council regarding specific fees, which are addressed below.
Tennis and Pickleball Court Rentals - Council requested that staff review whether the proposed increase would provide sufficient funding to maintain the courts. Staff researched neighboring cities to compare rental rates and found that most of these cities either do not have dedicated pickleball or tennis courts or do not reserve courts for private use; the courts are available to the public on a first-come, first-served basis only. The City of Tulare does have a rental rate of $10 per hour per court for tennis, with a two-hour minimum, and the City of Fresno has a rental rate of $5 per hour per court for both pickleball and tennis. At the Clovis Recreation Center, the City of Clovis offers four indoor basketball courts striped for pickleball, available for rent for $40 per hour. Renters do need to supply nets for pickleball.

Visalia's park system includes six tennis courts at Plaza Park, eight pickleball courts at Plaza Park, and two pickleball courts at Recreation Park, and there has been a notable increase in the rental use of the courts. Between 2023 and 2024, the pickleball courts at Plaza Park had a 47% increase in reserved hours, and the Recreation Park courts had an increase of 253% in hours reserved. The tennis courts at Plaza Park are projected to have a 62% increase in reserved hours from 2024 to 2025.

Plaza Park - Pickleball - 8 courts 1,277 1,609 2,373 869 Recreation Park - Pickleball - 2 courts 111 123 435 124 Annually, as part of the Rates and Fees process, the Parks and Recreation Department's Fee Policy (pg 3-7) is adopted, which establishes a pricing model for activities supported by the department. Tennis and Pickleball are considered part of the Community Benefit category, which is designed for facilities that benefit the community as a whole. It has not been the City's intent to recuperate maintenance costs through rental fees for amenities within this category.
The programs, facilities, and services in this category are items that can increase property values, provide safety, address social needs, and enhance the quality of life for residents. The Visalia City Council Page 3 of 6 Printed on 6/13/2025

values, provide safety, address social needs, and enhance the quality of life for residents. The community pays for these items through taxes and may utilize them free of charge. Parks & Recreation data shows that Visalia residents make 85% of all court rentals. The increase in court use has driven the increased need for maintenance, as seen by the rental hours for pickleball courts at Plaza Park from 2023 to 2024. As the courts are an amenity open to the public and available on a first-come, first-served basis, recuperating all maintenance expenses through reservation fees is not feasible for the reservation customer. The ability to reserve these courts is desired by community members, as it allows individuals to secure the use of these public courts at specific times for their private use. This desire to secure a location for private use is seen in the rental of other park amenities, such as picnic arbors, soccer fields, softball fields, and open space for special events.
In evaluating the Recreation Department Fee Policy and researching neighboring cities, staff recommends increasing the tennis and pickleball court hourly rental rate to $8 per hour per court for the fiscal year 2025-26.
Athletic & Miscellaneous Facility Fees FY 24-25 FY 25-26 Park Athletic Courts
Tennis Courts - Per Hour $ 6.00 $ 8.00
Pickleball Courts - Per Hour $ 6.00 $ 8.00
Trolley/Bus Hourly Rental - Council requested that staff round the Trolley rental rate for clarity for customers.
Staff performs this calculation every two years, utilizing the contracted costs and hours of use to ensure that the fee accurately reflects actual costs. These vehicles are funded with FTA funding, which will allow for a small profit from their usage as long as the funds remain in the Transit Division. Since there are two tiers to this rate, staff recommends no change to the City Rate but does recommend rounding the Non-City Rate to the nearest whole dollar, which is $162.00. This rounding would create a "clean" number for customers to refer to while maintaining a rate that is closely consistent with the cost. By performing this calculation every two years, staff would also be able to control any excessive increase caused by rounding and propose a decrease during the Rates & Fees presentation.
Trolley/Bus FY 24-25 FY 25-26
City Rate - Per Hour $ 118.03$ 147.58
Non City Rate - Per Hour $ 134.61$ 162.00
Sequoia Shuttle Fare Discounts - Council asked staff to consider offering discounts to veterans, seniors, and children on the Sequoia Shuttle.
Transit offers discounts for Fixed Routes, VLine, Dial-A-Ride, and the 31-Day T-Pass and has proposed a 25% decrease in the round-trip fare for the Sequoia Shuttle for this year. The proposed fare decrease for the Shuttle is designed to compensate for changes in schedule, pickup and drop-off locations, and delays in the Federal Government's activation of the reservation system, with the goal of providing a discount to all those who wish to enjoy this service. The Sequoia Shuttle program is currently subsidized by Local Transit Funds (LTF), so Visalia City Council Page 4 of 6 Printed on 6/13/2025

service. The Sequoia Shuttle program is currently subsidized by Local Transit Funds (LTF), so any additional discounts within this program would require a higher subsidy. Using more LTF funding for the Sequoia Shuttle would ultimately reduce the funds available for the City's local programs. Calculations for this decrease were done within the budget, and further discounts could change the financial balance of this program.
Even more applicable at this point, the season is well underway, and trying to change the fee structure and reservation system now would be difficult and disruptive to the service. Staff will bring back a rate structure at the end of the year, before the beginning of the 2026 reservation season. Therefore, staff does not recommend any additional discounts at this time.
Sequoia Shuttle FY 24-25 FY 25-26
General (Round Trip) $ 20.00$ 15.00
Rounding All Fees - Council requested a review of all fees to possibly round up to the nearest dollar for a cleaner look and to ease calculations.
Staff recommends deferring this request to next year's (FY 26/27) rates and fees due to the need for additional time to review each fee and its basis to determine if it can be rounded up.
Several of the fees are tied to government ordinances, city contracts, Proposition 218 regulations, grants, and federal funding, which may impose restrictions on the calculation of these fees. In addition, rounding up may create a cumulative effect over time, causing us to inflate our rates excessively above the actual rate.
Fiscal Impact: Increasing City rates and fees will help departments and capital projects cover costs.
Prior Council Action: The Council reviewed and discussed new fees and adjustments to the Rates & Fees for Fiscal Year 2025-26 on June 2, 2025.
Other: The following committees and commissions have reviewed the proposed rates and fee adjustments and recommend to the City Council the adoption of the adjustments to the City's Rates & Fees for Fiscal Year 2025-26.
Alternatives: Partially amend or do not amend the proposed fees.
Recommended Motion (and Alternative Motions if expected):

Administrative Policy and Procedures
PURPOSE
The purpose of this policy is to set forth the procedures for the review, revision, and approval of the city’s rates and fees.
POLICY
1. It shall be the policy of the City to establish fees and charges for City services, which reimburse the City for the associated services unless specified otherwise by the City Council.
2. All fees and charges shall be reviewed annually, or sooner, if needed, to ensure that they are adequate and correlate with their associated cost.
3. All fees and charges adopted herein shall be superseded by State or Federal legal requirements setting fees and charges if at diƯerent amounts.
PROCEDURES
1. Annually Finance shall request city departments to review their rates and fees and propose any adjustments.
2. Upon receipt of the requested adjustments, Finance shall review them to ensure that they comply with the City Council’s policy for reimbursement of the associated costs.
3. Upon completion of this review, the proposed new rates and fees shall be reviewed by the appropriate advisory Committee or Commission and forwarded by Finance to the City Manager for final review and approval prior to being submitted to the City Council.
4. After review and approval by the City Manager, the new rates and fees shall be identified in the Rates and Fees Resolution.
5. The rates and fees shall be used to estimate revenues for specific City programs as requested in the proposed upcoming budget.
6. The Public Hearing on the proposed rates and fees, if required, shall be scheduled at a regular City Council meeting.
7. Generally, all adjustments to the city’s rates and fees are to be considered at one time prior to the review and adoption of the budget. Changes in some rates and fees become eƯective at a date other than the first day of the new fiscal year. See EƯective Date below for details.
8. Should new services or documents become available during the year, the new rate(s) or fee(s) may be developed and implemented using the same criteria as similar rates or fees. These new items would then be included in the next review if continued use is anticipated.
BASIS FOR ADJUSTMENTS
1. Generally, adjustments to rates and fees are based on established annual indexes including the following:
a. California Consumer Price Index (CCPI)
b. Engineering News Record Construction Costs Index (ENRCCI) c. U.S. Consumer Price Index – Urban Consumers (CPI-U)
2. In addition to these indexes, some rates and fees are also adjusted using other bases to determine fees. For example, the following bases are also used in limited cases to adjust rates and fees:
932
2 a. Cost of providing service
b. Cost reimbursement
c. Survey of fees from surrounding communities
d. Special surcharges due to specific costs
e. Subsidy by the General Fund
f. Rounding
3. Certain rates and fees may not be required to be adjusted. For example, if an Enterprise Fund can continue to fund operations without an increase, none will be recommended.
EFFECTIVE DATES
1. Adjustments to rates and fees generally become eƯective on the first day of the next fiscal year. (e.g. General Fund and Enterprise Funds)
2. Adjustments to Impact Fees are eƯective 60 days after the date of the Public Hearing in which the new rates were adopted.
3. In certain circumstances, a rate or fee may be brought before the Council and adjustments adopted during the fiscal year for immediate change or changes over a specified number of years. 933
3 Parks and Recreation Department
Fee Policy
BACKGROUND
The Parks and Recreation Department wishes to provide meaningful recreational opportunities to meet the physical, cultural, mental, and economic needs of the citizens of Visalia. It is our desire to enhance the quality of life in Visalia by providing open space, recreation facilities, and programs for all citizens. Providing an array of quality recreational opportunities is an increasingly complex task due to 1) demands for new expanded services, 2) demands to retain older services, 3) increases in operating expenses, and 4) priorities of allocating limited City General Fund dollars. Fiscal responsibility mandates the adoption of a sound and consistent fee and charge policy that will guide the generation of revenue to supplement the General Fund’s support of Parks and Recreation programs and services.
Fiscal goals of the Parks and Recreation Department include:
To become less dependent on tax support from the City and to become more self-suƯicient. To substantially increase the proportion of the services and operations funded through user fees. The department will make a concerted eƯort to track its costs for facilities and operations and ensure program costs are better covered by fees charged.
To view programs and services more as an enterprise. Even though the department is a public agency, the City of Visalia is limited by the funds it can provide for all services, let alone those not viewed as essential by many taxpayers.
In order to continue as a vital, progressive agency in the community, we need to adopt a more entrepreneurial, business-like, and fiscally aware approach to our operations.
STATEMENT OF PHILOSOPHY
The philosophy of the City of Visalia Parks and Recreation Department is to oƯer year-round, diversified Parks and Recreation programs and services, at reasonable and equitable rates designed to meet the needs of the citizens of Visalia. Fees and charges will be viewed as a method to equitably provide and expand services without an inordinate impact on the General Fund while ensuring where fees are implemented, they are kept at a fair market value in order to encourage participation. Because the demand for services is greater than the municipality’s ability to appropriate funds to support the demand, it becomes necessary to charge new fees, increase some existing fees, and pursue additional supplementary revenues and resources.
Fees and charges for parks, recreation, and cultural services will provide only one source of funding for the department. Other sources will include General Fund appropriations, grants, sponsorships, special gifts, donations, and in-kind contributions.
VISALIA’S PRICE MODEL
The Parks and Recreation Department will follow a cost recovery method based on benefits. This model utilizes General Fund dollars for programs, services, and facilities that benefit the community as a whole and allows for user fees to support programs and services that focus on benefits to individuals. Attachment A shows our Cost Recovery Pyramid with the following categories to be used to set program fees based on cost recovery rates.
934
4 Category A: Community Benefit – programs, facilities, and services that benefit the community as a whole.
These programs, facilities, and services can increase property values, provide safety, address social needs, and enhance the quality of life for residents. The community pays for these basic services and facilities through taxes and may utilize free of charge. Such programs or services can include parks and open spaces, educational programs, health and wellness activities, community-wide special events, family activities, and gang prevention programs.
Examples of current programs in this area:
Parks, open spaces, and trails
Community-wide Special Events – Egg Hunt, Dia de Los Ninos, Tamale Festival Family Walks
Manuel F. Hernandez Community Center Drop-In Program
The Loop
Category B: Community/Individual Benefit – programs, facilities, and services that promote individual physical and mental well-being and provide recreation skill development. These are the more traditionally expected services and beginner instructional levels. These programs, services, and facilities are typically assigned fees based on a specified percentage of direct and indirect costs. These costs are partially oƯset by both a tax subsidy to account for the Community Benefit and participant fees to account for the Individual Benefit. Programs, facilities, and services in this tier shall recover 50% of direct program costs.
Examples of current programs in this area:
Youth Sports – baseball, soccer, basketball, volleyball Tiny Tot Sports
Public Swim
Swim Lessons
Senior Meal Program
Senior Citizen programs & classes
Fee Example – Youth Basketball
Expenses
OƯicials $10,000

Equipment 6,000
Awards 2,000
Advertising 1,500
Total $ 52,300
425 Participants ($52,300/425) 123.06
50% Cost Recovery $ 61.53 Fee
Category C: Individual/Community Benefit – Services that promote individual physical and mental wellbeing and provide an intermediate level of recreational skill development. This level provides more Individual 935
5 Benefit and less Community Benefit and should be priced to reflect this. Programs and services in this category shall recover 75% of direct program costs.
Examples of current programs in this area:
Day Camps
Enrichment Classes – dance, art, martial arts, and music After School Activity Program
Tiny Tots Pre-School Program
Fee Example – Tiny Tot Pre-School
Expenses
StaƯing $ 480
Equipment & Supplies 200
Total $ 680
15 Students ($680/15) 45.33
75% Cost Recovery $ 34.00 Fee
Category D: Mostly Individual Benefit – Specialized services generally for specific groups and may have a competitive focus. In this category, programs and services may be priced to recover 100% of direct costs.
Examples of current programs in this area:
Father/Daughter Dance
Specialty Camps & Sports Camps
Kendo
Adult Sports – soccer, softball, basketball, volleyball Swim Teams
Diving Classes
Fee Example – Adult Volleyball
Expenses
Hourly StaƯ $ 800
Equipment 600
Awards 400
Gym Rental 1,800
Total $ 3,600
18 Teams ($3,600/18) $ 200
100% Cost Recovery $ 200 per Team Fee
Category E: Highly Individual Benefit – Programs or services that have a higher revenue potential and may fall outside of the core mission. In this category, programs and services are priced to cover all direct and indirect costs. Examples of this include elite athletic programs, food concessions, and trips.
Examples of current programs in this area:
Haunted House
Photos at the Mall
Bus Trips
936
6 Certification Courses
ViTri Triathalon
DETERMINING FEES FOR PROGRAMS
The Parks and Recreation Department will work to recover a percentage of or all Direct Program Costs. The following describes factors that are considered to calculate direct costs. Part-time, Hourly, and Contractual StaƯ – leaders, instructors, oƯicials, and scorekeepers, including hourly benefit cost of 5.85%.
Equipment – including stage, light rental, tables, chairs, sound systems, and other such items. Supply/Materials – awards, balls, crafts, tickets, certificates, videos, copies, etc. Maintenance/Custodial – building attendants, facility opening and closing, maintenance issues directly related to the program.
Maintenance Supplies/Materials – maintenance and/or custodial supplies needed specific to the operation of the program or activity.
Membership/Training – memberships, subscriptions, training specific to a program or activity. Special Insurance – special event or food product liability insurance Security – contract security or Police Department charges Marketing – newspaper, radio, flyers, posters
Program Discounts, Scholarships
Transportation – bus rental, transit tickets
Postage
Equipment Purchases – total cost of equipment purchased divided by the number of years of life expectancy of equipment.
Utilities
Facility Rental Cost – cost to rent outside facilities
DIFFERENTIAL FEES, VARIANCES, AND FEE WAIVERS
It is understood that on occasion special circumstances may be needed in determining fees for groups or individuals having circumstances uncommon to those in the fee structure criteria. In these cases, the Parks and Recreation Commission will be the approving party for all requests. Requests for a variance shall be submitted in writing to the Parks and Recreation Commission 60 days prior to the date of use.
FEE REVIEW AND OVERSIGHT
The Parks and Recreation Commission shall review and provide oversight of specific program and/or activity fees and charges. Such review shall take place at least bi-annually during a regularly scheduled Park and Recreation Commission meeting.

Receive a staff presentation outlining the results of the Visalia Central Core Sidewalk Survey completed by Precision Concrete Cutting.
Summary:
Precision Concrete Cutting (PCC) completed their survey of the central core sidewalks that were located around the grant-funded trees previously installed by the City of Visalia. The main intent of this contract is to have PCC complete concrete shaving repairs and other minor miscellaneous repairs in an effort to minimize trip hazards in the downtown area. Upon completion of the survey, it was determined that about 70% of the downtown trip hazards present could be completed utilizing shaving and miscellaneous repairs for a cost of approximately $214,325. City staff is currently working with PCC to schedule and move forward with this work. It is anticipated that they will start construction around July 7, 2025 and it will take approximately 45 working days to complete this work.
Background Discussion:
On March 3, 2025, the Council approved the contract with Precision Concrete Cutting (PCC) for a total amount not to exceed $500,000. This contract covers sidewalk surveying and concrete shaving services. A survey was conducted on central core Visalia's sidewalks to evaluate the necessary improvements around previously installed grant-funded trees and to identify the repair methods needed to correct deficiencies and trip hazards in particular to identify areas where concrete shaving can address uneven sidewalk issues.
PCC completed approximately 15.63 miles of sidewalk surveys and collected a total of 3,074 data points. The survey area extended 10 feet from the center of each grant funded trees. This data includes specific areas identified for repair through concrete shaving work, concrete pavement and tile removal and replacement, and concrete patching and filling work.
As part of the contract, concrete shaving is recommended for lifts on concrete panels ranging in height from 1/4 inch to 2 inches. The survey showed that approximately 65% of the deficiencies could be mitigated by concrete shaving, 30% required concrete pavement/tile removal and replacement, Visalia City Council Page 1 of 2 Printed on 6/13/2025

File #: 25-0225 Agenda Date: 6/16/2025 Agenda #: 3.
be mitigated by concrete shaving, 30% required concrete pavement/tile removal and replacement, and 5% required patching/filling work.
City staff reviewed the report and is scheduling PCC to carry out the patching, filling, and concrete shaving work. PCC's proposal for the concrete shaving is $199,424, and the cost for patching and filling is $14,901. The total projected cost for the project is $214,325, not accounting for any unforeseen circumstances. PCC plans to begin repairs on July 7, 2025, with an estimated duration of 45 working days.
The concrete shaving process is relatively quick and straight forward which should have minimal impacts to pedestrians on the sidewalks. Staff is working with the contractor to schedule work so that higher pedestrian traffic areas are done early in the morning during non-peak times. During the busier later morning/afternoon hours the contractor will move their work to the lesser trafficked areas towards the outer limits of the downtown.
The survey estimated that it would cost around $1.2 million of additional funding to complete the remaining concrete and tile removal and replacements. Staff is currently looking into having the parks department staff perform tile replacements and is also looking into other options for concrete removals and replacements. Staff will return with a plan for this additional work by early fall.
Fiscal Impact:
The current contract with PCC is not to exceed $500,000. Last fiscal year, funds were allocated in the Risk Fund for this project. The cost of the survey work was $9,720, and the proposed concrete shaving and filling work is estimated at $214,325. There are sufficient funds available and leaving a remaining total balance of $275,955.
Prior Council Action:
March 3, 2025 - Council authorized the City Manager to execute a contract with Precision Concrete Cutting for an amount not to exceed $500,000 for surveying and concrete shaving purposes, to attach to the Purchasing Cooperative of America Contract #PCA OD-311-20 and appropriate $500,000 from the Risk Fund.
Alternatives: None recommended.

Ordinance Adoption - Public hearing and first reading of Ordinance No. 2024-16 to adopt Zoning Text Amendment No. 2025-01: A request by the City of Visalia to amend text within the Visalia Municipal Code Title 17 (Zoning Ordinance) to clarify and facilitate City Council adoption of SingleFamily Residential Objective Design Standards and Planned Residential Development standards applicable to new single-family residential developments by Resolution rather than by Ordinance.
Prepared by:
Brandon Smith, Principal Planner, [email protected], (559) 713-4636; Paul Bernal, Planning and Community Preservation Director, [email protected], (559) 713- 4025.
Department Recommendation:
Staff recommends that the City Council hold a public hearing and introduce the first reading of Ordinance No. 2024-16, to amend portions of Municipal Code Title 17 (Zoning Ordinance).
Summary:
This item was originally noticed and agendized for June 2, 2025. At City Council’s direction, the item and the public hearing were continued to June 16, 2025. Following is a copy of the staff report originally presented to City Council.
On April 21, 2025, staff presented to the City Council a revised draft Objective Design Standards (ODS) Ordinance (Attachment 2 contains the original staff report presented to City Council). The Ordinance was intended to establish new sections in the Zoning Ordinance and finalize the Councildirected effort to prepare regulations pertaining to ODS and Planned Residential Development (PRD) Standards applicable to new single-family residential development. The effort is in response to current growth trends where developers have been utilizing smaller lot sizes and new design techniques. The standards address a range of topics that include appearance, landscaping, fences, off-street parking, and common open space areas within planned residential developments.
Following the public hearing, the City Council voted to adopt the Objective Design Standards and PRD Standards by resolution rather than by ordinance, since adoption by resolution allows for the standards to be modified or revised in the future without holding multiple public hearings. Resolution No. 2025-30 was subsequently adopted by the City Council on May 5, 2025.
As a result of the adoption of Resolution No. 2025-30, the ODS are only specified in the resolution without corresponding section numbers, and there is no mention in the Zoning Ordinance of the ODS requirement which is now in effect. This Zone Text Amendment and the accompanying Ordinance No. 2024-16 has therefore been initiated by staff to complete the necessary administrative revisions to the Zoning Ordinance related to the adoption of new ODS and to “close the loop” on the administrative enforcement of the ODS.
Background Discussion:
Visalia City Council Page 1 of 4 Printed on 6/9/2025
powered by Legistar™1020
File #: 25-0230 Agenda Date: 6/16/2025 Agenda #: 4.
The new Ordinance is being conducted for the following purposes:
1) Complete the removal of redundant or obsolete objective design standards currently in the Zoning Ordinance for single-family residential lots with area less than 5,000 square feet (Section
17.12.135). The ODS work in tandem with other existing objective standards that address residential development standards in the review of eligible development applications. Such development standards for traditional single-family residential lots, found in Chapter 17.12 Article 1, and for lots below 5,000 square feet in size, found in Section 17.12.135(B), are not affected by ODS (i.e. setbacks, height).
However, many objective design standards found in Section 17.12.135 that were intended to apply exclusively to lot sizes below 5,000 square feet have been superseded with the nowapproved ODS standards that are applicable to all development in Single-Family Residential zone districts. As a result, certain objective standards in Section 17.12.135 are being removed. Below is a brief list of objective standards being removed from Zoning Ordinance Section 17.12.135 that pertain to lots less than 5,000 square feet:
· Primary frontage orientation
· Primary frontage entrance and window requirement
· Garage width
· Garage protrusion
· Common usable open space requirement
· Covered front porch requirement
2) Add implementing language at the end of Chapter 17.12 (i.e. Section 17.12.160) for the adopted-by-resolution ODS. The purpose of this language would be to explain how the adoptedby-resolution ODS is applicable to single-family residential development and how it will be administered. A similar example of Zoning Ordinance text that refers to a set of adopted-byresolution regulations is Section 17.16.190 for the City’s Model Good Neighbor Policies that are applicable to Multi-family Residential development: (link:
<https://codelibrary.amlegal.com/codes/visalia/latest/visalia_ca/0-0-0-34073>) The proposed implementing language proposed for inclusion in the Zoning Ordinance Chapter
17.12 for the ODS is stated as follows:
17.12.160 Objective Design Standards.
Project proponents of single-family residential developments that are subject to approval by the Site Plan Review Staff or the Planning Commission are required to adhere to the Objective Design Standards as specified by Resolution No. 2025-30 of the Visalia City Council passed on May 5, 2025, and may be subsequently amended by resolution. The purpose of the standards are to provide proponents with a clear understanding of the City’s expectations for all residential project design and streamline the construction of housing units by reducing subjectivity in the entitlement process. Before the issuance of a building permit for each primary dwelling unit, the project proponent shall demonstrate each unit’s compliance with the Objective Design Standards, utilizing any forms approved by the City for determining compliance.
Fiscal Impact: None.
Prior Council Action:
· On December 16, 2024, City staff introduced separate Ordinances to adopt new regulations Visalia City Council Page 2 of 4 Printed on 6/9/2025
powered by Legistar™1021
File #: 25-0230 Agenda Date: 6/16/2025 Agenda #: 4.
· On December 16, 2024, City staff introduced separate Ordinances to adopt new regulations pertaining to Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs) and ODS / PRD standards. The City Council proceeded with introducing the 1st Reading of the ADU Ordinance (which was subsequently passed with the 2nd Reading on January 21, 2025), and delayed action on the ODS Ordinance to allow additional time for interested parties to meet with staff. · On April 21, 2025, the City Council held a public hearing to consider the first reading of a revised draft Ordinance for the ODS / PRD standards, and voted 3-2 to approve with an alternative motion to adopt by Resolution rather than Ordinance. · On May 5, 2025, the City Council approved a consent calendar item for the adoption by Resolution No. 2025-30 of Objective Design Standards in accordance with the City Council’s prior action taken on April 21, 2025.
Other: None.
Alternatives: The City Council may either approve or not approve the first reading of the Ordinance.
Not approving the Ordinance would result in no language contained in the Zoning Ordinance that directs a project proponent to the standards, together with conflicting objective standards for lots below 5,000 square feet in size. Therefore, this alternative is not recommended.
Recommended Motion (and Alternative Motions if expected):
I move to introduce for first reading Ordinance No. 2024-16 for Zone Text Amendment No. 2025-01 to amend text within the Visalia Municipal Code Title 17 (Zoning Ordinance) to clarify and facilitate City Council adoption of Single-Family Residential Objective Design Standards and Planned Residential Development standards applicable to new single-family residential developments by Resolution rather than by Ordinance.
Environmental Assessment Status: The Zoning Text Amendment for the clarification and facilitation of the City Council adoption of the Objective Design Standards is exempt from CEQA per the CEQA Common Sense Exemption Section 15061(b)(3) that applies to projects which clearly do not have the potential for causing a significant effect on the environment. The project, in itself, does not allow construction of any building or structure, but sets forth design regulations that shall be followed. The regulations do not change allowable uses or building intensities. It can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the project may have a significant effect on the environment and thus is not subject to CEQA review.

Department Recommendation:
Staff recommends that the City Council hold a public hearing and introduce the first reading of Revised Ordinance No. 2024-16, to amend portions of Municipal Code Title 17 (Zoning Ordinance) pertaining to Single-Family Residential Objective Design standards (ODS) and Planned Residential Development (PRD) standards applicable to new single-family residential developments.

File #: 25-0108, Version: 1
Note on Revised Ordinance: This Ordinance and the corresponding draft Municipal Code contains revisions based on input received from interested parties, following the motion acted upon by the City Council on December 16, 2024, to continue the matter and to conduct further outreach with the residential development community.
The City Council may, in lieu of the recommended motion for the Ordinance as specified above, consider any of the following alternative motions:
1. Direct staff to make changes to the Ordinance as specified by City Council, based upon any comments shared by an interested person; or
2. Adopt the single-family residential Objective Design standards and PRD standards by resolution rather than by ordinance (adoption by resolution allows for these standards to be modified / revised in the future without holding multiple public hearings); or
3. Direct staff to conduct further outreach to stakeholders and interested individuals which could result in modifications to the residential objective design standards as proposed, and direct that any revised objective design standards be reconsidered in a public hearing before the Planning Commission and City Council.
Background Discussion:
On December 16, 2024, staff presented to the City Council a draft Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) Ordinance and a draft Objective Design Standards (ODS) Ordinance (the original ordinance is included as Attachment 2; the staff report is also included as Attachment 5). The text would establish a new section in the Zoning Ordinance located at Chapter 17.12, Article 2, commencing at Section
17.12.140. The amendments to the Zoning Ordinance Text also include elimination of certain regulations for lots less than 5,000 square feet in Section 17.12.135 (refer to Attachment 3) since they are now addressed in the Revised Draft ODS Ordinance.
The ODS Ordinance, as originally presented to the City Council on December 16th, was crafted largely in response to current growth trends where developers have been utilizing smaller lot sizes and new design techniques. The standards address a range of topics that include appearance, landscaping, fences, off-street parking, and common open space areas within planned residential developments.
During the public hearing, staff received public comments from a few homebuilder developers requesting that City Council continue the matter to allow additional time for the development community to review and provide additional comments on the draft ODS Ordinance. The Council adopted the ADU Ordinance and elected to continue the ODS Ordinance to a date uncertain in March/April 2025 to give staff and the development community time to meet and discuss the ordinance.
Following the public hearing, City staff requested a revised scope of work and budget from Mintier Harnish, who prepared the original ODS/ADU Ordinances. These items were approved by the Change Order Committee and worked commenced. The revised scope of work called for facilitating two stakeholder roundtable discussions with local housing developers, with each meeting lasting approximately one hour each.
Stakeholder meetings were held virtually on January 30th and February 5th, with each meeting having 12-15 people in attendance. Following the meetings, letters and comments in e-mail format were also received by four persons. The response at these meetings well exceeded the participation during the original stakeholder outreach done in 2023/2024. As a result of the comments received, a Revised Public Review Draft Ordinance (“Revised Draft Ordinance”) was prepared and circulated to the stakeholders / interested persons for public comment for 15 days beginning March 14, 2024.

File #: 25-0108, Version: 1
stakeholders / interested persons for public comment for 15 days beginning March 14, 2024. The Revised Draft Ordinance is contained within the attached Revised Ordinance No. 2024-16, and a track changes version showing all changes between the December 2024 Ordinance and the Revised Ordinance is included as Attachment 1.
Proposed Amendments:
The Revised Draft Ordinance largely retains the same format and structure but removes certain requirements and offers a greater number of options for a builder to achieve compliance. This was done out of a desire, as expressed by stakeholders and builders, for the Ordinance to offer more variety and flexibility towards achieving compliance.
One section where options are presented for achieving compliance is Section 17.12.160 - Structure Design Standards, which addresses requirements for dwellings to provide massing elements (projections, recessions, etc.) and horizontal / vertical articulation. The Revised Draft Ordinance replaces this with a “menu of options”, requiring that units include at least three design elements from a list of 13 items (which includes protruding windows, changes in heights, gables/dormers, decorative trellises, changes in roof pitch, etc.). Whereas there have been repeated concerns expressed by stakeholders over the increased cost associated with additional requirements, the offering of different options provides alternatives for the builders to come into compliance and allows builders to analyze the cost impact of each option.
Another section where options have been presented pertains to the “Front Entryways” Section
17.12.150.B.3 of the draft ordinance. Rather than requiring a covered porch with every unit, the Revised Draft Ordinance allows builders to choose between a front porch, recessed entry, deep overhang, or front landing.
In summary, the following standards have either been removed or listed as an option from the Revised Draft Standards (see Attachment 1) based upon input from stakeholders. The code sections refer to where the standard was found in the prior draft ordinance (see Attachment 2).
Removed:
· Section 17.12.150.A.1 - Unit staggering. Developers commented that staggering is something that they already do. Requiring staggering could further result in shortened spaces for vehicle parking in driveways.
· Section 17.12.160.D - Prohibition of balconies within 20 feet of an adjacent property line unless screened from view
Moved under options section:
· Section 17.12.150.A.2.c. Garages to be setback farther from or equal to the primary elevation. · Section 17.12.150.B.3.a and b - Placement of the main entry and at least one window visible on the primary elevation.
· Section 17.12.150.B.3.d - Pedestrian walkway connecting the front entry to the primary sidewalk/public right-of-way.
· Section 17.12.160.A and B - Massing and Articulation requirements, replaced with a menu of options.
The following items have also been revised in the Revised Draft Standards, with code sections referenced.
· Section 17.12.150.A.1.d - The amount of garage width as part of the overall primary elevation Visalia City Council Page 3 of 6 Printed on 4/29/2025
powered by Legistar™1033
File #: 25-0108, Version: 1
· Section 17.12.150.A.1.d - The amount of garage width as part of the overall primary elevation width has increased from 60% to 75% and exempts small lots (under 40 feet wide) from meeting the standard.
· Section 17.12.160.C.2 - The requirement for two or more colors on a building exterior has been separated into different sections for standalone units and subdivisions. · Section 17.12.170 - A new section was added for Utility and Service Areas to ensure that utilities and mechanical equipment are screened from view and/or designed in a manner that minimizes their view from a street.
· Section 17.12.200.A - Removing the requirement for exterior lighting to be directed downward.
The following sections remain unchanged, as there were no specific comments from stakeholders regarding these sections.
· Section 17.12.140 - pertaining to Purpose and Applicability. · Section 17.12.150.A.2 - pertaining to the declaration of a primary elevation. · Section 17.12.150.B.1 and 2 - pertaining to setbacks and height. · Section 17.12.170 - pertaining to landscaping, excepting the removal of a street tree requirement since it is already a City standard elsewhere. · Section 17.12.180 - pertaining to fences, walls, and hedges. · Sections 17.12.200 thru 220 which primarily pertain to planned unit developments (PUDs), dealing with off-street parking facilities, usable common open space areas, and sidewalks. · Section 17.12.230 - pertaining to the Exception powers of the Planning Commission.
Correspondence:
The Revised Public Review Draft Ordinance was shared with stakeholders / interested persons for public comment for 15 days, from March 14th to March 31st. City staff received two letters of correspondence (see A. and B. below) from stakeholders during this period containing comments and requesting certain revisions to be considered toward the Ordinance. In addition, one letter of correspondence (see C. below) was received after the public comment period. All are included as Attachment 4.
A. One correspondence was received from Lennar Homes, who had previously provided comments to the Council on the matter. Lennar Homes had four comments on the Revised Draft Ordinance summarized as follows:
Comment: Staff response:
1) Eliminate projection
requirements for lots less than
40’ wide.
Not supported. Projection requirements are one option from a menu of options for providing at least three design elements.
Staff contends that small lot developments are equally fit for utilizing projections and therefore should not be exempted from a projection standard.
2) Require window fenestration
for front facades only rather than
on all sides.
Not supported. Staff considers this requirement as imperative towards upholding a high aesthetic quality of elevations on all sides and adding visual interest, especially as seen from both major and local roadways.
3) Reduce the minimum size of
window shutters, if used, to
below 100% of the size of the
window.
No change necessary. Shutters are not a requirement in the ordinance, though a standard is provided in case they are used. The standard is intended to convey that shutters could feasibly cover the entire window area and not be dismissed as an accessory/decoration mismatched to the window.
4) Question whether decorativeNo change necessaryDecorative carriage lights would Visalia City Council Page 4 of 6 Printed on 4/29/2025

from a projection standard.
2) Require window fenestration
for front facades only rather than
on all sides.
Not supported. Staff considers this requirement as imperative towards upholding a high aesthetic quality of elevations on all sides and adding visual interest, especially as seen from both major and local roadways.
3) Reduce the minimum size of
window shutters, if used, to
below 100% of the size of the
window.
No change necessary. Shutters are not a requirement in the ordinance, though a standard is provided in case they are used. The standard is intended to convey that shutters could feasibly cover the entire window area and not be dismissed as an accessory/decoration mismatched to the window.
4) Question whether decorative
carriage lights qualify for
required security lighting.
No change necessary. Decorative carriage lights would
qualify as meeting the standard.
B. Another correspondence was received from Self-Help Enterprises (“SHE”), who had not provided any previous comment to Council or staff during the entire outreach process. The correspondence contends that the standards are incompatible with SHE’s current plans, thereby imposing increased costs towards a non-profit housing developer. The correspondence goes into detail describing the impacts borne by each section within the ordinance and seeks consideration of “affordable housing developers using pre-approved master plans from Sections 17.12.160.A thru C” or including a waiver process.
Staff maintains that the design standards should be imposed uniformly across all types of singlefamily residential development in order to maintain an aesthetic quality shared among all residents. In fact, the Draft Ordinance includes Section 17.12.240 that grants the Planning Commission the authority to grant one or more exceptions to any regulations prescribed in the standards subject to approval at a public hearing. Such process may be utilized if the applicant deems that any certain standard(s) would compromise the developer’s ability for a builder to maintain a set affordability standard, particularly when subject to public funding. It should be noted that, at present, deed restricted affordable housing accounts for less than 1% of all new single-family detached units which are issued building permits in Visalia.
C. Another correspondence was received from D.R. Horton, who had previously provided comments to the Council on the matter. The letter in summary states that while the builder is generally not in favor of alterations resulting in price increases to the buyer, the builder’s existing plans could be utilized without significant changes. The correspondence offers support of the draft standards and no opposition.
D. Another correspondence was received from San Joaquin Valley Homes, who had previously provided written comments on the original Draft Ordinance. This item was received after the close of the comment period for the Revised Public Review Draft. The email includes a mark-up with some questions and minor suggestions regarding the Revised Public Review Draft Ordinance.
Fiscal Impact:
None.
Prior Council Action: On December 16, 2024, City staff introduced separate Ordinances to adopt new regulations pertaining to Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs) and ODS / PRD standards. The City Council proceeded with introducing the 1st Reading of the ADU Ordinance (which was subsequently passed with the 2nd Reading on January 21, 2025), and delayed action on the ODS Ordinance to allow additional time for interested parties to meet with staff.
Recommended Motion (and Alternative Motions if expected):
I move to introduce for first reading Ordinance No. 2024-16 for Zone Text Amendment No. 2024-03, to amend portions of Municipal Code Title 17 (Zoning Ordinance) pertaining to Single-Family Visalia City Council Page 5 of 6 Printed on 4/29/2025

Residential Objective Design standards.
Environmental Assessment Status: The Zoning Ordinance amendment for the proposed ODS ordinance is exempt from CEQA per the CEQA Common Sense Exemption Section 15061(b)(3) that applies to projects which clearly do not have the potential for causing a significant effect on the environment. The project, in itself, does not allow construction of any building or structure, but sets forth design regulations that shall be followed. The regulations do not change allowable uses or building intensities. It can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the project may have a significant effect on the environment and thus is not subject to CEQA review.

equipment, license and services. The Department began the BWC Program in 2018 and is approaching the midpoint in the second five-year contract.
Staff have recognized the current amount of BWCs was insufficient to align with best practices for deployment; however, due to staff shortages, the department was able to meet these standards through effective administration. With the department now maintaining at or near full staffing levels, the additional BWCs have become a necessity. Staff are requesting to deploy BWCs to all sworn staff, including command staff in non-administrative positions. Additionally, staff are requesting the add-on service of Axon Auto-Tagging, a software that automatically categorizes BWC evidence, to reduce the amount of administrative time spent by officers and digital evidence technicians processing digital evidence. This request will result in the following license increases deployed over the remainder of this contract:
