ATE: July 16, 2024

SUBJECT: Adopt a Resolution A uthorizing the County of Kern to Levy and Collect a Special Tax on Properties within the City of Wasco Community Facilities District No. 2017-01.

Recommendation:

Staff recommends the City Council:
1) Adopt a Resolution to Authorize the County of Kern to levy and collect a special tax within the City of Wasco Community Facilities District No. 2017-01; and 2) F
ind that this action is not a project as defined under the California Environmental Quality Act State Guidelines; therefore, pursuant to State Guidelines Section 15378, no environmental review is required.

Environmental Review:

The staff has reviewed the proposed activity for compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act(CEQA) and has determined that the activity is not a “Project” as defined under Section 15378 of the State CEQA guidelines because the proposed activity consists of a governmental fiscal/administrative activity which does not result in a physical change in the environment; therefore, pursuant to Section 15060(c)(3) of the State CEQA Guidelines, the activity is not subject to CEQA. Thus, no environmental review is required.

D
iscussion:

On July 18, 2017, through Resolution No. 2017- 3211, the City Council approved the establishment of Community Facilities District No. 2017 -01 (CFD 2017-01), which allows for the financing of public improvements and services . These services and improvements include streets, sewer systems and other basic infrastructure, police protection, fire protection, ambulance services, schools, parks, libraries, museums, and cultural facilities.

By law, the CFD is also entitled to recover expenses needed to form the CFD and administer the annual special taxes and bonded debt.

T
he Special Tax will be secured by recordation of a continuing lien against all non-exempt real property in the District and will be collected in the same manner as ordinary ad

STAFF REPORT
City of Wasco

valorem property taxes are collected or in such other manner as may be provided by the City Council, including, without limitation, direct billing of the affected property owner, and shall be subject to the same penalties, procedure, sale and lien priority in case of delinquency as applicable for ad valorem property taxes.

The maximum annual special tax was established i n FY 2017/18 in the amount of $799.30 per parcel . Per the “Rate and Method of Apportionment of Special Tax” section of Resolution No. 2017-3011, this Maximum Annual Special Tax shall be adjusted for inflation annually to account for inflation. The annual adjustment shall be the Consumer Price Index (CPI) percentage increase from April 2023, Los Angeles Area- to April 2024, up 3.9% from a year ago. Thus, the tax per parcel for FY 2024/25 is:

Annual Assessment per Lot this past FY 2023/24: $ 923.05 CPI (3.9%): $ 35.99
City of Wasco assessment per lot for FY 2024/25: $ 959.04 Plus, this year, Kern County Administration Charge per
parcel:
$ 0.20
FY 2024/25 Annual Assessment per Lot: $ 959.26

Fiscal Impact:

Tract 7311 Phases 2, 3 and 4 recorded and have been included in the CFD . There are 99 lots being billed for FY 2024/25. The anticipated revenue for FY 2024/25 is, therefore, $959.04 per lot x 99 lots = $94,944.96

SUBJECT: Adopt a Resolution Confirming the Assessment for the Levy and Collection of Assessments within Sewer Lift Station District 2008-01 for Fiscal Year 2024-25.

Recommendation:

Staff recommends the City Council:
1) A
dopt a Resolution Confirming the Assessment for the Levy and Collection of Assessments within Sewer Lift Station District 2008-01 for Fiscal Year 2024-25; and 2) F
ind that this action is not a project as defined under the California Environmental Quality Act State Guidelines; therefore, pursuant to State Guidelines Section 15378, no environmental review is required.

Environmental Review:

D
iscussion:

The Sewer Lift Station Assessment is levied on parcels within housing tract numbers 6334 Phases 1 and 2 and TTM 6460 for the purpose of paying the operating and replacement cost of the sewer lift station constructed by the developer and dedicated to the City. This lift station was needed to facilitate the development of the subject tracts. On April 1, 2008, a new assessment district was created in accordance with all applicable laws.

T
he initial assessment amount was based upon the Engineers report prepared by Quad Knopf and dated March 25, 2008. For each subsequent year the tax may be increased by the Consumer Price Index (CPI) factor not to exceed 4%. Provided, however, that in no

event shall the Special Assessment per parcel for any fiscal year be less than the amount established for the first fiscal year.

The amount of annual adjustment shall be the percentage increase from the April 2023 Consumer Price Index (CPI), Los Angeles Area- to April 2024, up 3.9% from a year ago; thus, the tax per parcel for FY 2024/25, including County charge per parcel is:

Annual Assessment per Lot this past FY 2023/24: $86.08 CPI (3.9%): $ 3.35
City of Wasco assessment per lot for FY 2024/25: $89.43 Plus, this year, Kern County Administration Charge per
parcel:
$ 0.20
FY 2024/25 Annual Assessment per Lot: $ 89.63

The calculation is in accordance with ordinance number 2008-571 of the City of Wasco, which was approved by the voters and is compliant with Proposition 218.

Fiscal Impact:

Tract 6334 Phases 1, and 2 recorded and have been included in the District. There are 146 lots being billed for FY 2024/25. The anticipated revenue for FY 2024/25 is, therefore, $89.43 per lot x 146 lots = $13,056.78

Environmental Review:

The staff has reviewed the proposed activity for compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act(CEQA) and has determine d that the activity is not a “Project” as defined under Section 15378 of the State CEQA guidelines because the proposed activity consists of a governmental fiscal/administrative activity which does not result in a physical change in the environment; therefore, pursuant to Section 15060(c)(3) of the State CEQA Guidelines, the activity is not subject to CEQA. Thus, no environmental review is required.

D
iscussion:

On July 20, 2021, through Resolution No. 2021- 3649, the City Council approved the establishment of Community Facilities District No. 2020 -01 (CFD 2020-01), which allows for the financing of public improvements and services . These services and improvements include police protection, fire protection, ambulance services, maintenance and lighting of parks, parkways, streets, roads, and open space, flood and storm protection services, including, but not limited to, the operation and maintenance of storm drainage systems, maintenance, including replacement, and operation of any real property or other tangible property with an estimated useful life of five or more years that is owned by the City or by

another local agency pursuant to an agreement entered into under Government Code Section 53316.2. By law, the CFD is also entitled to recover expenses needed to form the CFD and administer the annual special taxes and bonded debt.

The Special Tax will be secured by recordation of a continuing lien against all non-exempt real property in the District and will be collected in the same manner as ordinary ad valorem property taxes are collected or in such other manner as may be provided by the City Council, including, without limitation, direct billing of the affected property owner, and shall be subject to the same penalties, procedure, sale and lien priority in case of delinquency as applicable for ad valorem property taxes.

The Maximum Annual Special Tax was established in FY 2022/23 at an amount of $1,060.96 per parcel. Due to COVID and Tract 7373 not being built-out, this is the first FY that the City will charge the special tax. Per the “Rate and Method of Apportionment of Special Tax” section of Resolution No. 2021-3649, this Maximum Annual Special Tax shall be adjusted for inflation annually to account for inflation. The annual adjustment shall be the percentage increase from the April 2023 Consumer Price Index (CPI), Los Angeles Area, to April 2024, up 3.9% from a year ago. Thus, the tax per parcel for FY 2024/25 is $1,102.55, including the County charge per parcel.

City of Wasco assessment per lot for FY 2024/25: $ 1,060.96 CPI (3.9%): $ 41.39
Plus, this year, Kern County Administration Charge per parcel: $ 0.20 FY 2024/25 Annual Assessment per Lot: $ 1,102.55

Fiscal Impact:

Tract 7373 Phase 1 was recorded on 10/26/2021, Phase 2 and Phase 3 were recorded on October 12, 2022, and have been included in the CFD . There are 144 lots being billed for FY 2024/25. The anticipated revenue for FY 2024/25 is, therefore, $1,102.35 per lot x 144 lots = $158,738.40.

SUBJECT: Adopt a Resolution Authorizing the City Manager or Designee to Accept the Grant Award of $22,501.00 and Execute the Grant Agreement, Budget Appropriations, Certifications, and Assurances for the Fiscal Year 2024-2025 California State Of Good Repair (SGR) Program.

Recommendation:

Staff recommends that the City Council:
1) Adopt a Resolution authorizing the City Manager or designee to accept the award and execute a grant agreement , budget appropriations, certifications, and assurances thereto for the FY2024-2025 California State of Good Repair (SGR) Program; and

2) Find the subject activity is not a project within the meaning of CEQA Guidelines Section 15378 and is, therefore, not subject to review under CEQA.

Environmental Review:

This action is not a project within the meaning of CEQA Guidelines Section 15378 and is, therefore, not subject to CEQA since it does not have the potential to result in either a direct physical change in the environment or a reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment. The approval of this agenda item does not commit the City to a definite course of action concerning a project since the action authorized herein may lead to the negotiation of a grant agreement . This proposed activity is, therefore, not subject to CEQA . Any future action c onnected to this approval that constitutes a project will be reviewed for compliance with CEQA.

Discussion:

The State of Good Repair/State Transit Assistance (SGR/STA) Program, which is part of Senate Bill 1, allocates funds annually to transit operators in California for eligible transit maintenance, rehabilitation, and capital projects. The SGR Program provides public transportation agencies with a consistent and dependable revenue source to invest in the upgrade, repair, and improvement of their transportation infrastructure, thereby enhancing transportation services.

SUBJECT: Adopt a Resolution Authorizing the City Manager or Designee to Authorize and Accept an Easement Agreement Between Wasco GO, LLC and the City of Wasco.

Recommendation:

Staff recommends the City Council:
1) Adopt a Resolution authorizing the City Manager or Designee to authorize and accept an easement agreement between Wasco G O, LLC and the City of Wasco; and

2) Find that this Project is classified as categorically exempt pursuant to CEQA Section 15332; no environmental review is required.

Environmental Review:

Staff has reviewed the proposed Project for compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and has determined that it is categorically exempt pursuant to CEQA Section 15332; no environmental review is required.

Discussion:

The City of Wasco will soon welcome a new Wendy’s restaurant on Hwy 46 next to the Dutch Brothers Coffee. To provide water to the new Wendy’s location and avoid any Cal Trans right-of-way issues, the city's water meters will be placed on the Wendy’s property.

An easement agreement is needed between Wasco GO, LLC (the grantor) and the city of Wasco (the grantee) to allow the city's water department access to their equipment, such as water meters and water boxes for reading and maintenance. The specific area for this easement is shown in the attachment provided. The easement paperwork has been reviewed by Wiley Hughes Surveying, which has been hired by the City to review surveying documents.

After the easement documents are finalized and approved by the consultant and city staff, we request that the council approve the city manager or designee to sign the easement paperwork, granting the city the necessary access rights to their water meter.

STAFF REPORT

SUBJECT: Adopt a Resolution Authorizing the City Manager or Designee to Enter into an Agreement with Westrock LLC for the Alley Pavement Rehabilitation Project in the amount of $96,969.00 and allowing the City Manager to execute Contract Change Orders in an amount not to exceed an aggregate of $25,000.00.

Recommendation:

Staff recommends the City Council:
1) Adopt a Resolution Authorizing the City Manager to Enter into an Agreement with Westrock LLC in the amount of $96,969.00 for the Alley Pavement Rehabilitation Project; and

2) Allow the City Manager to execute Contract Change Orders in an amount not to exceed an aggregate of $25,000.00.; and

3) Find that this Project is found to be exempt under Section 15301 of the California Environmental Quality Act State Guidelines; no environmental review is required.

Environmental Review:

Staff has reviewed the proposed activity for compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act ( CEQA) and has determined that the Project is found to be exempt under Section 15301 due to the nature of the work being conducted as alterations of existing facilities; no environmental review is required.

Discussion:

A series of Projects funded by the California High-Speed Rail was approved as part of the 2024-25 FY budget, one of which being the rehabilitation of the existing alleyway between 12th Street and Poso Avenue. The City’s Asphalt Zipper equipment was used to complete a portion of the preparation work on this alleyway, thereby reducing the amount of work required by bidders.

STAFF REPORT
City of Wasco

80 of 113

The Alley Rehabilitation Project was advertised for bid on June 2, 2024. On June 27, 2024, the City of Wasco received four bids from the following Contractors:

FIRM BID TOTAL

Westrock LLC $ 96,969.00
Burtch Construction $ 148,346.90
Bowman Asphalt $ 108,430.00
Griffith Company $ 170,450.00

After completion of the review, Staff has determined that Westrock LLC is the lowest-cost qualified bidder, and as such Staff recommends awarding the Project to Westrock LLC.

Existing infrastructure including shallow utility lines may require field adjustments to the design and warrant the authorization of legitimate change orders. Authorization of up to $25,000.00 for project change orders is requested.

Fiscal Impact:

The 2024/202 5 FY budget (Project 2 3002) allocated a total of $ 225,883.00 for the implementation of Design and Construction for the Alley Rehabilitation Project. To date, the City has encumbered $ 11,773.71 in costs for design and advertisement fees. The lowest cost, a qualified bid from Westrock LLC of $96,969.00, leaves $117,140.29 remaining for Project contingencies.

As such, Staff recommends an award to Westrock LLC.

TO: Honorable Mayor and Council Members

FROM: M. Scott Hurlbert, City Manager
Keri Cobb, Community Development Director

DATE: July 16, 2024

SUBJECT: Receive an update on the City of Wasco Downtown Streetscape Re-Design Project and Provide Direction for the Placement of Existing City Monuments.

Recommendation:

Staff recommends the City Council:
1) Receive an update on the City of Wasco Downtown Streetscape Re-Design Project; and

2) Provide direction for the Placement of Existing City Monuments; and

3) Find that this action is not a project as defined under the California Environmental Quality Act State Guidelines; therefore, pursuant to State Guidelines Section 15378, no environmental review is required.

Environmental Review:

The staff has reviewed the proposed activity for compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act(CEQA) and has determined that the activity is not a “Project” as defined under Section 15378 of the State CEQA guidelines because the proposed activity consists of a governmental fiscal/administrative activity which does not result in a physical change in the environment; therefore, pursuant to Section 15060(c(3) of the State CEQA Guidelines, the activity is not subject to CEQA. Thus, no environmental review is required.

Background:

On January 8, 2024, after four years of planning and preparation, the City broke ground on the Historic Downtown Business District Transformation project. Planning and preparation for this project included:

• Development of concept designs using public input provided through electronic surveys and in -person public workshops, as well as City Council input provided during periodic project updates presented during Council meetings. • Grant writing and funding procurement.

STAFF REPORT
City of Wasco

112 of 113
• Development of engineered construction, landscap e, irrigation, electrical plans, and bid documents.
• Procurement of a contractor.

Discussion:

Our initial deadline for expenditure of funds was July 1, 2024. However, staff was able to obtain a 6-month extension to allow time to tie up loose ends , including completion of art installations, finishing touches in Veterans Park, install ing tree grate s, and installing children’s swings in the Plaza, as well as a few other outstanding items.

One outstanding item on which staff is seeking informal direction from the Council is the placement of existing City monuments currently in storage.

Once all outstanding items are completed, Staff intends to schedule a communitywide ribbon-cutting celebration near the Veterans Day Holiday. This will provide an opportunity to honor our Veterans with the new park and give the weather time to cool off.

Fiscal Impact:

Project expenditures and outstanding commit ments to date total approximately $6,000,000. The total project budget, as identified in the City’s Capital Improvement Plan, is approximately $6,500,000. We are currently anticipating the completion of the project at or just under budget.
