The Investigations Bureau conducts follow-up criminal
investigations on all felony and select misdemeanor crimes reported to the Police Department. Typically, a uniformed police officer responds to a call for service and prepares a police report which may require follow-up investigation. A Police Investigator is then assigned to conduct the follow-up, often requiring many hours of investigation before an arrest is made or a case is closed.

INVESTIGATIONS BUREAU
The Gang Task Force (GTF) has continued proactive and directed enforcement patrols, conducted investigations and has made numerous arrests for weapons violations, narcotics violations and warrants. GTF conducted numerous Probation/Parole searches throughout the City of Woodland and members of GTF assisted YSO at the annual Almond Festival.
A seventeen-year-old male was arrested and booked into Juvenile Hall for robbery and assault with a deadly weapon. This arrest was based on an incident in which the victim was robbed and beaten outside of a local business. The juvenile suspect entered a plea deal for battery causing serious bodily injury.
In another case, a sixteen-year-old male and a seventeen-year-old male were arrested and booked into Juvenile Hall for several charges including robbery and battery causing serious bodily injury. Several search warrants were written for cell phone and social media accounts. Based on evidence collected, it was determined the juveniles were also responsible for a carjacking that occurred at UC Davis the same day as the Woodland robbery. GTF has been working closely with UC Davis Police Department Detectives on their case and the suspect’s will be arrested once the investigation is completed.
An adult suspect was arrested for an attempted murder case that occurred in 2021. The suspect had several warrants and had eluded police and detectives for several months. In addition, Grand Jury proceeding were conducted at the Police Department for the Alvaro Gamera homicide. Members of GTF testified in the matter and assisted with the process.
The two adult suspects were indicted on all counts and a third suspect was already facing homicide charges in a Sacramento county case. GTF members have also been assisting Sacramento County Investigators and Sacramento DA in that matter.
GTF served several residential search warrants. Among them, a search warrant for narcotics was served at a Woodland residence. Heroin, fentanyl and prescription pills (Percocet) were located along with over $4000 in cash and gang indicia. An adult female was arrested and booked for drug sales. A search warrant was served in Sacramento concerning a robbery and assault with a deadly weapon case that occurred at a local business. An adult male was arrested and booked for robbery and other charges.

10 March 30th – Community Safety Conversations at Yolano/Donnelly March 31st – Cesar Chavez Celebration at Heritage Plaza The objective of the UNIDOS program is to provide an opportunity for the Woodland Police Department to build a strong relationship with our Spanish-speaking residents and to serve as a resource center to help create an improved quality of life for the entire community.
UNIDOS has continued to build its followers on the UNIDOS – Woodland PD en Español page. We have reached over 300 followers. The UNIDOS page has posted upcoming events it is involved in and it serves to provide information that affect the quality of life for our residents.
As the pandemic requirements eased, UNIDOS was invited to participate in a couple of events:
The events were a success. We are looking forward to all the upcoming events in the 2nd quarter.
UNIDOS
The Woodland Police Department Volunteers assisted with graffiti abatement, purging, and filing in Records, mailing out alarm permits, area patrols, blight abatement, and abandoned vehicle abatement. We resumed with our Monthly ViP meetings in March. The Chaplains are continuing their very important duties of being a critical support for our officers and the members of our community.
EXPLORERS
The Explorer program was not active until the end of February due to COVID restrictions. Since the restrictions lifted we have met as a group for our monthly trainings two times as of April 8th. However, we plan to continue our trainings on a bi- weekly basis and have been receiving more interest through our on-line interest forms for recruiting purposes. We are also actively recruiting at the High Schools.
Upon meeting as a group several Explorers shared stories on how the de-escalation training we had done as a group helped them in real world environments. Both Explorers had been at work and were able to diffuse stressful and dynamic situations with positive results. They further mentioned they were trained far better than other employees.

11 In January, the shelter was not accepting new clients because of positive COVID cases.
HOST continued to interact with the people experiencing homelessness during this time.
When the shelter began accepting clients again, HOST coordinated with those seeking services to get them spots at the shelter.
HOST continued to visit Ralph Harris Park along with the assistance of patrol. During nighttime and early morning patrols, there was a significant decrease in camping.
Citations were written when violations of the law were occurring.
HOST participated in the Point in Time Count during this quarter. They assisted in making contact with people experiencing homeless and surveyed them in regards to their time and reasons for being homeless.
HOST coordinated with City and County staff to clean up along the River Road. There was 36,820 pounds of trash collected and taken to the dump. Three people experiencing homelessness that were still present on the day of clean up were offered services. One person was found to have a warrant and arrested.
The following are some approximate general statistics related to HOST activity for the last quarter:
HOMELESS OUTREACH STREET TEAM
During the meetings, the Explorers were put in leadership roles and were able to guide their peers through training and did an excellent job. It was apparent their communication skills have vastly improved. The Explorers learned basic patrol functions and policy regarding the use of spike-strips used to enable vehicles during pursuits and they had the ability to see it used. The Explorers also learned how to complete basic parking enforcement procedures and forms to assist officers when they begin patrol ride alongs in the near future.

ITEM #: F.7
SUBJECT: Contract Amendment for Construction Management and Inspection Services for Improvements Associated with the Parkside 3 Subdivision Improvements
Recommendation for Action: Staff recommends that the City Council adopt Resolution No. _____, to approve amendment #1 for construction management and inspection with UNICO Engineering Consultants (UNICO), in the amount of $80,000 for the Parkside 3 Subdivision Improvements and authorize the City Manager to execute the agreement.
Staff Contact:
Miguel Chavez, Construction Project Manager – (530) 661-5952, [email protected]
Fiscal Impact:
Construction management and inspection of the Parkside 3 Subdivision Improvements are funded by fees paid by the developer into a specific deposit account for this purpose.
The original contract for Parkside 3 was approved on March 17, 2021, for $206,000.00. Amendment 1 is for $80,000. If approved, the current amendment will bring the total construction management cost to $286,000.
There is no impact to the General Fund.
Background:
On September 1st, 2020, the City Council approved the Parkside 3 Tentative Subdivision Map No. 5155. Construction of the Parkside 3 Subdivision Improvements began in March 2021. This project has been under construction for 14 months.
Contracts for the Construction Management and Inspection of these improvements were executed with UNICO based on review of the City’s short list of approved firms for this work and the experience of each providing similar services. UNICO was deemed the most qualified to provide these services for the City.
Discussion:
The construction of this Subdivision project includes improvements that will be city-owned once completed. As such, the City is required to provide construction management and inspection for these projects. The recommended action to execute the consultant agreement amendment will allow for the continuation in providing these construction services.
Consultant contracts for Construction Management and Inspection are based on the amount of time spent on the project. The initial consultant contracts were executed based upon the schedule for completion provided by the developer at the time of contract execution. This project is past its originally scheduled completion date. As work continues past the original completion date, the time required for inspection also continues past the original completion and thus requires additional payment.
Conclusion:
Staff recommends that the City Council adopt Resolution No. _____, to approve amendment #1 for construction management and inspection with UNICO Engineering Consultants (UNICO), in the amount of
$80,000 for the Parkside 3 Subdivision Improvements and authorize the City Manager to execute the agreement.

SUBJECT: Fiscal Year 2021/2022 Library Trust Fund Appropriation Increase
Recommendation for Action: Staff recommends that the City Council adopt Resolution No. _____, authorizing an increase to the Library Trust Fund (fund 917) appropriations from $38,500 to $97,465, a total increase of $58,965 in support of additional grant funded program costs.
Staff Contact:
Greta Galindo, Library Director, 530-661-5984 [email protected]
Fiscal Impact:
The $58,965 total increase to the Library Trust Fund Budget is due to two new Library programs.
1. The Woodland Public Library (WPL) was awarded $19,965 in federal Library Services and Technology Act (LSTA) funds for a new "Memory Lab" project in Square One.Patrons will be able to digitize paper-based documents, photographs, VHD/VHS-C cassette tapes, audio cassettes, and migrate data from DVDs, CDs, Zip disks, and 3.5” floppy disks. WPL’s Memory Lab will be a hub for various community groups in Woodland, connecting with California’s established Memory Labs to create a statewide Memory Lab Network and become part of the national Memory Lab Network.
2. The Woodland Public Library and Yolo Office of Education (YCOE) have partnered to offer Entrepreneurship classes in Square One. A 3-year MOU between the organizations includes funding from YCOE ($39,000) for staffing and equipment to host the classes in Square One, taught by a credentialed YCOE teacher.
Discussion:
The City Council approved the Fiscal Year 2021/2022 Library Trust Fund Budget of $38,500 based on the estimates for library program funding that is supported by the Library Trust Fund. WPL received additional funding through LSTA grants and the partnership with YCOE that was not anticipated when developing the Fiscal Year 2021/2022 Library Trust Fund Budget.
Conclusion:
Staff recommends that the City Council adopt Resolution No. _____, authorizing an increase to the Library Trust Fund (fund 917) appropriations from $38,500 to $97,465, a total increase of $58,965 in support of additional grant funded program costs.

SUBJECT: 2022 Road Maintenance Project, CIP 22-06; Approve Plans and Specifications, Authorize Bid Advertisement
Recommendation for Action: Staff recommends that the City Council adopt Resolution No. _____, approving the project plans and specifications for the 2022 Road Maintenance Project, CIP 22-06 and authorizing bid advertisement.
Staff Contact:
Justin Lau, Junior Engineer, (530) 661-5960, [email protected]
Fiscal Impact:
The project is identified in the current Capital Budget as CIP 22-06 with a project budget of $1,125,000. The project funding is comprised of $1,100,000 in Measure F funding, and $25,000 in Water Enterprise Funds to fund improvements associated with water utility conflicts. This project funding is consistent with the current approved Capital Budget and the Measure F Spending Plans.
The engineer’s estimated cost of construction for the base bid is $760,000. The difference between the total project budget and the engineers' estimate is the amount budgeted for design, construction management, inspection and construction contingency. The project will be bid with one additive alternative (Add Alt A) to provide the flexibility to award as much work as possible while ensuring the project does not exceed the approved funding. The engineer's estimate for Add Alt A is $100,000.
Background:
In November 2016, Woodland voters approved Measure F, which extended the ½ cent sales supplemental sales tax. The 12-year approval of Measure F, a General Tax, includes funding for general city services such as street maintenance.
Staff maintains a pavement management program that tracks pavement conditions and aims to address pavement maintenance on local streets with the Measure F funds.
Discussion:
Pavement maintenance is significantly different than pavement rehabilitation or reconstruction which repairs failed roadways. The goal of pavement maintenance is to prevent reactive road repair by proactively preserving and maintaining pavements in fair condition which have not yet deteriorated to the point of needing rehabilitation.
To increase cost efficiency and minimize public inconvenience, pavement maintenance for local/residential streets has been completed in discrete ‘zones’ of the city. Geographically bounding projects reduces the cost for construction and traffic control; it also increases the effectiveness of management and inspection. Over the past 14 years, the city has completed pavement maintenance projects in all of the 14 designated zones. With road maintenance having been completed on local roads in all 14 designated zones, staff has shifted its focus to collector streets in need of preventative maintenance services for the 2022 Road Maintenance Project.
The current project scope is to provide pavement maintenance (pavement grind & overlay) on the following corridors:
Base Bid
• Cottonwood Street (W. Main Street to W. Beamer Street) • North Street (Fourth Street to East Street)
Add Alt A
• North Street & Fourth Street Intersection
The streets identified for treatment above were chosen because they are at an age and condition prime for pavement surface work to preserve their condition and extend their useful life. Pavements should be resurfaced within the first 5-7 years after construction and every 7-10 years thereafter, to prevent age related cracking that can progress into premature asphalt failures.
Upon Council authorization, project bids will be solicited and staff anticipates returning to Council for contract award in June 2022 for a construction start date in July 2022.
Conclusion:
Staff recommends that the City Council adopt Resolution No. _____, approving the project plans and specifications for the 2022 Road Maintenance Project, CIP 22-06 and authorizing bid advertisement.

Mark Miller, Associate Engineer, 530-661-5968, [email protected]
Fiscal Impact:
The Yolo Bypass West Levee Culvert Replacement Project, CIP 20-06, is included in the Capital Improvement Program which was approved by Council on June 15, 2021. Approved funding for CIP 20-06 is $3,985,000 which consists of $2,560,000 of American Rescue Plan Act funds, $300,000 of Storm Drain Development Funds, $200,000 of Sewer Enterprise Funds and $925,000 as a contribution from Yolo County to cover costs for design, permitting, the awarded construction contract, environmental services, and construction management and inspection. At the end of the project, the final project costs will be shared at a 74% City and 26% County allocation.
Mead & Hunt (M&H) has been involved in the project design work since 2019, including work in support of California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) compliance. Approval of amendment #2 for CIP# 20-06 will bring the total not-to-exceed cost for Project design, permitting and engineering services through construction up to $457,020 from the previous contract amount of $407,428. The amendment covers Mead & Hunt services through construction according to the attached scope of work.
There is no impact to the General Fund.
Background:
The City’s entire storm drainage system outlets to the Yolo Bypass through the Outfall Channel and culverts through the Yolo Bypass West Levee (YBWL). The existing culverts were constructed around 1971 and do not meet current engineering standards for pipe penetrations through levees that protect urban areas. Additionally, storm drainage flows have increased since 1971 due to development within the City and an updated understanding of regional hydrology shows that additional capacity is needed through the culverts crossing the YBWL. Lastly, the existing culverts have corroded and thus need to be replaced.
Multiple permits are being acquired from the various agencies that authorize construction activities on Federal Flood Control Project levees or review construction projects for their effects on the environment. Amendment #2 with M&H includes the scope of work necessary to conform the Project’s design to the various permit conditions required as a result of CEQA and NEPA compliance.
Discussion:
The Project generally includes excavation of the YBWL and removal of the three 48-inch diameter metal
Outfall Culverts and installation of four new 6 foot by 6 foot concrete box culverts. The work includes significant dewatering and environmental mitigation because the existing culverts are several feet underwater on both sides of the YBWL. Permitting work was expected to take more than one year with permits required from several federal and state agencies including, among others, the United States Army Corps of Engineers, the Central Valley Flood Protection Board, the Regional Water Quality Control Board, and California Department of Fish and Wildlife. In order to comply with conditions now stipulated in the required permits, additional funding for M&H is required to complete the Project’s permitting, environmental compliance, and conformed improvement plans as well as to provide engineering support services through construction as detailed in the attached scope of work from M&H.
The City advertised a Request for Qualifications for On-Call Engineering Services in April of 2019 and received sixteen submittals. On June 5, 2019, the City selected nine of the firms to be on the City’s on-call engineering services list. City staff elected to use M&H from the approved list of firms for the YBWL Culvert Replacement Project due to their experience in the design and permitting of levee projects.
Conclusion:
Staff recommends that the City Council adopt Resolution No. _____, authorizing the City Manager to execute Amendment No. 2 to the professional services agreement with Mead & Hunt for the Yolo Bypass West Levee Culvert Replacement Project, also known as the Storm Drainage Outfall Channel Culvert Structure Project, for an additional amount up to $49,592.

TO: THE HONORABLE MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL
AGENDA: City Council Regular Meeting
DATE: May 17, 2022
ITEM #: F.11
SUBJECT: Agreement for Countywide Homeless Coordination Project
Recommendation for Action: Staff recommends that the City Council adopt Resolution No. _____, approving a new five-year Homeless Coordination Project Agreement for the period of July 1, 2021 – June 30, 2026 (Fiscal Years 2022 - 2026) and authorizing the City Manager to execute any and all agreements necessary for the City to implement the project.
Staff Contact:
Dan Sokolow, Senior Planner, (530) 661-5927, [email protected]
Fiscal Impact:
There is no impact to the General Fund as City participation in the Homeless Coordination Project will be funded through the Housing Assistance Fund (326) at an annual cost of $20,000.
Background:
The City has partnered with the other cities in Yolo County and the County since 1988 to support the countywide Homeless Coordination Project. The project helps fund a Homeless Coordination position within the Yolo County Health and Human Services Agency to provide coordination of the countywide homeless system and supports the operation of the Yolo Wayfarer Center’s emergency shelter during the four-month cold weather season. Yolo County administers the Homeless Coordination Project for the county and cities.
Discussion:
The annual cost of the Homeless Coordination Project is $73,300 and will be funded by Yolo County, $23,300; Woodland and West Sacramento, $20,000 each; and Davis, $10,000. Davis is not contributing to the Yolo Wayfarer Center’s emergency shelter since a shelter is located in the city. The Agreement for the project begins on July 1, 2021 and extends through June 30, 2026. The Project supports the Yolo Wayfarer Center’s emergency shelter during the four-month cold weather season.
Conclusion:
Staff recommends that the City Council adopt Resolution No. _____, approving a new five-year Homeless Coordination Project Agreement for the period of July 1, 2021 – June 30, 2026 (Fiscal Years 2022 - 2026) and authorizing the City Manager to execute any and all agreements necessary for the City to implement the project.

ITEM #: F.12
SUBJECT: Fire Department Grant Award Budget Appropriations
Recommendation for Action: Staff recommends that the City Council adopt Resolution No. _____, authorizing the City Manager to:
1. Appropriate an additional $1,915 to Fund 330 (Other Federal Grants) for the purchase of the additional SCBA equipment as awarded in the 2019 Homeland Security Grant; and
2. Appropriate $12,000 to Fund 101 (General Fund) for the purchase of the Battery Operated Extrication equipment as received from the Springlake Fire Protection District via the Rural Communities Investment Program.
Staff Contact:
Eric Zane, Fire Chief - (530)661-5861, [email protected]
Fiscal Impact:
The requested appropriations will ultimately be cost neutral. The requested funds will cover the initial expenditure of equipment, which will be reimbursed to the City of Woodland via two different grant awards.
There are no matching funds required for either grant.
HSGP 2019
The $1,195 appropriation for SCBA equipment will be reimbursed through the Homeland Security Grant award received by the City of Woodland Fire Department.
Rural Communities Investment Program
The Springlake Fire Protection District, who was awarded the funds as part of the Rural Communities Investment Program, will reimburse the $12,000 appropriation for battery operated extrication equipment.
Background:
HSGP 2019
In September 2021, the Woodland Fire Department received award of the 2020 Homeland Security Grant Program (HSGP) for the purchase of Self-Contained Breathing Apparatus (SCBA) cylinders. However, the grant amount was not sufficient to purchase all of the cylinders needed. Yolo County Office of Emergency Services, who manages the HSGP awards, was able to identify excess funds from the 2019 HSGP to be utilized to purchase the additional cylinders. Therefore, the City of Woodland also received a secondary award for SCBA cylinders from the 2019 Homeland Security Grant Program in the amount of $1,915. The Fire Department is now requesting this additional award be appropriated to the budget.
Rural Communities Investment Program
The Springlake Fire Protection District, which covers much of the incorporated area between Woodland and Davis, has contracted with the City of Woodland Fire Department for fire suppression services for over 40 years. Thanks to this long-standing relationship, the Springlake Fire Protection applied for battery operated extrication tools to be used by the City of Woodland Fire Department to assist with operations when responding within the City and the District through Yolo County’s Rural Communities Investment Program. This Springlake Fire Protection District was awarded $12,000, which they have disbursed to the City of Woodland
for the purchase of the battery operated extrication equipment. The Fire Department is now requesting those funds be appropriated to the budget.
Discussion:
Both the HSGP and the pass-through Rural Communities Investment Program funds from the Springlake Fire Protection District will allow the City of Woodland Fire Department to purchase much needed equipment to increase the safety and efficiency of operations at no cost to the City, as there is no matching funds required for either grant.
Conclusion:
Staff recommends that the City Council adopt Resolution No. _____, authorizing the City Manager to:
1. Appropriate an additional $1,915 to Fund 330 (Other Federal Grants) for the purchase of the additional SCBA equipment as awarded in the 2019 Homeland Security Grant; and
2. Appropriate $12,000 to Fund 101 (General Fund) for the purchase of the Battery Operated Extrication equipment as received from the Springlake Fire Protection District via the Rural Communities Investment Program.

Fiscal Impact:
The approved Capital Budget includes funding for three Spring Lake Parks: Jack Slaven, Rick Gonzales Sr. and Spring Lake Park. The current approved budget totals $776,417 for the project consisting of $300,000 SLIF Parks & Recreation funding (Fund 640) in FY2019/20 and $476,417 in Spring Lake Capital funding (Fund 594) in FY2020/21. The $776,417 existing in the project budget is anticipated to be sufficient to fund the cost of design for the three parks. Additional funding of $370,000 is required to complete the cooperative purchasing program purchases for the project based on CMAS bids received; the additional funding is proposed to come from the Parks SLIF Fund. With the recommended action to appropriate $370,000 of additional Parks SLIF Funds, the total project budget will increase to $1,146,417.
The engineer's estimate of construction cost is $6.3 million. The estimated total project cost is $7.6 million and includes construction, construction contingency, design, inspection, and construction management costs. These costs are subject to change based on actual bid prices. An updated budget analysis will be prepared after receiving the bids. Depending on the fund balance in the Parks SLIF fund and the anticipated near term revenues, staff will evaluate if sufficient funding is available to award the entire project. Staff included a bid alternative in the bid package in the event that projected revenues are not sufficient to award the entire project.
Over the past year construction costs have increased substantially. The current bidding climate remains volatile and staff is concerned that this may result in bid prices exceeding the funding available to complete all three parks at this time. This project was also planned assuming some internal borrowing based on healthy building permit revenues in the upcoming years. Now that interest rates have increased significantly, staff is unsure if we can continue to rely on these past assumptions. Should bids exceed current available and reasonably foreseeable funding, the bid alternate work will be deferred until sufficient SLIF Park revenues have been received to fund this work.
Award of the Construction Contract will be presented to Council for approval in late June or early July, at which time the necessary additional funding for construction of the parks will be allocated to the Project.
Background:
The Spring Lake Specific Plan includes three neighborhood parks and a central park. The first neighborhood park, Jack Slaven Park, was built in 2010 and is located on Miekle Avenue and Ortiz Avenue. The construction of this park developed 6.7-acres of park improvements and left 1.3-acres undeveloped.
The first construction phase of Jack Slaven Park included:
• Splash Pad
• Multi-use turf area to accommodate youth soccer field • Playground area and equipment for 2-5 aged and 5-12 aged children • Benches, pathway lighting, drinking fountains
• Paved paths with connections to adjoining greenbelt network • Group and small picnic shelters
• Restroom and maintenance building
• Low water use landscaping
The second construction phase will include:
• Dog Exercise Area
• Native Play Area
• Multi-use Sports Court
The second park, Rick Gonzales Sr. Park, was built in 2018 and is located on Miekle Avenue and Centennial Drive adjacent to Spring Lake Elementary School. This park is 10-acres, of which 7-acres were constructed with the first phase and 3-acres remain unimproved. It should be noted that the improvements at Rick Gonzales Sr. Park are included as a bid alternative. The improvements at this Park were selected as the location for the bid alternative because the existing park is already 7-acres and provides a significant amenity for the surrounding neighborhood. Spring Lake Park currently only has 2-acres of the 8-acres improved, and with the surrounding neighborhoods soon to be completed, does not provide an adequate amenity for this area of Spring Lake. The work at Jack Slaven was determined to be too small in construction cost to be removed and still ensure that the City could award the remaining work with the funding available. It is hoped that bids will come back favorably and all improvements can be funded at time of bid award in July. However, should the remaining improvements at Rick Gonzalez, Sr. Park need to be deferred, the SLIF Park fees collected after funding the current bid improvements will be prioritized toward completing this neighborhood park.
The first construction phase of Rick Gonzales Sr. Park included:
• 7-acre improvement area
• Multi-use turf area to accommodate youth soccer field and T-Ball size baseball field • Playground area and equipment for 2-5 aged and 5-12 aged children • Benches, pathway lighting, drinking fountains
• Paved and decomposed granite paths with connections to adjoining greenbelt network and fitness stations • Group and small picnic shelters
• Restroom and maintenance building
• Low water use landscaping
The second construction phase of Rick Gonzales Sr. Park will include:
• Tennis court (with Pickle ball markings)
• Full basketball court
• Expansion of multi-use turf field
• Completion of native landscape areas
The third neighborhood park, Spring Lake Park, is located on Shellhammer Dr. and Osborn Dr. Two acres of this 8 acre park were improved in 2018 concurrently with the first phase of Rick Gonzales. At the time the
first phase of the phase was under construction, the subdivision surrounding the park was still being developed and many of the homes near the park had not yet been occupied. The majority of the amenities for this park were therefore deferred until the remaining 6-acres were ready to be improved and additional residents had moved in to the neighborhood.
The first construction phase included the following park improvements:
• 2-acre improvement area
• Multi-use turf area
• Playground area and equipment for young children (ages 2-5) • Native play area
• Small picnic area
The second construction phase includes:
• Playground area and equipment for elementary aged children • Restroom and maintenance shed
• Group picnic shelter
• Multi-sports court
• Native plantings
• Paved and decomposed granite paths with connections to adjoining greenbelt • Benches, pathway lighting, drinking fountains
• Youth soccer field
• Unprogrammed Open Lawn
Discussion:
Staff is processing the final plans and specifications, upon Council authorization, the projects will be advertised together for bidding. Staff is anticipating a bid opening and a return to Council in late June or early July for construction contract award. This timeline will allow construction of these improvements in Summer 2022 and public access to the improved areas in Spring 2023.
In addition, staff is requesting that the procurement of equipment be performed through cooperate purchasing agreements with Sourcewell and National Purchasing Partners (NPP). These programs offers a wide variety of commodities and services at prices which have been assessed to be fair, reasonable and competitive. The use of these contracts is available to state and local government agencies. The use of these programs allows the City to purchase construction materials and provide them to the contractor for installation without paying for the Contractor’s mark-up costs. The City previously used cooperative purchasing agreements to purchase playground equipment and picnic shelters for Phase 1 construction for Rick Gonzales Sr. Park and Spring Lake Park in 2018.
Miracle Recreation-PlayPower, Inc., Public Restroom and Park Planet are well-established providers of high quality equipment that are participants of these programs. By utilizing these vendors, we not only benefit from their competitive pricing, but also their commitment to quality and customer service that we have received in previous interactions. It will also expedite the delivery of the equipment to ensure installation will occur during the allotted construction period.
Conclusion:
Staff recommends that the City Council:
1) Adopt Resolution No. _____, approving the project plans and specifications and authorizing bid advertisement for the 2022 Spring Lake Parks Project, CIP 20-03; and 2) Appropriate $370,000 of additional SLIF Parks & Recreation funding (Fund 640) to the project; and 3) Authorize the City Manager to execute a contract with Miracle Recreation-PlayPower, Inc. for the purchase of playground equipment for Spring Lake Park utilizing a cooperative purchasing agreement in the amount not to exceed $87,621.64; and
4) Authorize the City Manager to execute a contract with Park Planet for the purchase of the picnic shelter for Spring Lake Park utilizing a cooperative purchasing agreement in the amount not to exceed $36,034.28. 5) Authorize the City Manager to execute a contract with Public Restroom Company for the purchase of a restroom building for Spring Lake Park utilizing a cooperative purchasing agreement in the amount not to exceed $193,868.

In the event of project stoppage, additional fees may be assessed for re-mobilization, storage, crane costs, etc. Our discounted project costs are based upon timely payments. Delays in payment could change delivery schedules and project costs.
Delivery and Installation:
Site Inspection:
PRC staff, upon site arrival, will verify the required dimensions of the building pad and the corner locations/elevation. We will also verify the delivery path from an accessible road or street and install the underground utilities to the point of connection nominally 6’ from the exterior of the building.
Installation:
PRC will install the building turn-key, except for any exclusion (listed under “Exclusions,” herein.)
Installation of Utilities under the Prefabricated Building:
We fabricate off-site an underground utilities (water, and DWV piping and fittings) preassembled plumbing and electrical tree. Our site staff will set the underground tree into code depth excavated trenches and our staff will install the coarse concrete sand to bed the piping per our submitted drawing.
We provide all the buildings under-slab piping including the driven electrical ground rod. The Owner/General Contractor brings utility services to within 6’ of the pad and are responsible for final connections at that point.
Connection of Utilities Post Building Placement:
After placement of the building on the pad by PRC, our field staff will tie in the water and sewer connection “inside” the building only and terminate at a point of connection (POC) outside the building clearly marked for each utility service. The Owner/General Contractor is responsible for final utility point of service connections at the nominal 6’ from building locations.
Electrical:
PRC provides the electrical conduit to the POC 6’ from the building. The Owner/General Contractor pulls the wire and ties it off on the electrical panel.

Plumbing:
PRC provides the POC up to 6’ from the building footprint and the Owner/General Contractor connects the water to our stub out location.
Sewer:
Some sites depending on the local jurisdiction will require an outside house trap which Owner/General Contractor shall install if needed. PRC will provide you with a sewer point of connection including a clean out to which Owner/General Contractor will terminate the site sewer service.
Testing of Water, Sewer, and Electrical in Plant and Final Site Utility Connection:
Before the building leaves the manufacturing center, PRC certifies a pressure water piping test, DWV, and the electrical connections for compliance with code. While the building is fully tested for leaks at the plant before shipment, road vibration may loosen some plumbing slip fittings and require tightening once the building services (water) is completed. Owner/General Contractor is responsible for minor fitting tightening to handle small slip fitting leaks caused by transportation.
Time of Completion:
PRC estimates a 180 calendar day schedule to complete our scope of work from receipt of written notice to proceed together with signed approved architectural submittals from all authorities required to approve them.
Exclusions/Exceptions:
1. Access issues for delivery of the building by a clear unobstructed path of travel from an improved roadway to the final installation pad or foundation may cause site delays and extra cost at each site. This exclusion covers sites whose access is limited by trees, inaccessible roadways, overhead power lines at location where crane will lift building, grade changes disallowing our delivery trailers with only 4” of clearance to grade, berms, or uneven site grades, or when the path of travel is over improvements such as sidewalks, all of which are not within the scope of work by PRC. On some sites without on-site storage availability for buildings that cannot be set, relocation to a proximal crane yard and later relocated to the site for installation, will incur additional fees at rates that vary depending on local rates. PRC will provide written costs for this additional work by change order.
2. If weather on site causes site delivery issues, the delivery may have to be diverted to an off-site location and the additional costs will be a change order to the bid. Our staff works with the Owner/General Contractor in advance to make sure sound decisions for delivery are made to avoid this issue. But sometimes Owner/General Contractor take risks for weather, but this risk is clearly at the Owner/General Contractor risk, not PRC.
3. Sidewalks outside the building footprint.
4. Trench plates or matting needed for protection of site soils, sidewalks, hardscaping, or site utilities shall be the responsibility of the Owner/General Contractor. Any site soils damage or other site improvements if damaged during installation shall be the responsibility of the Owner/General Contractor.
Spring Lake Park, City of Woodland, CA| 04/26/2022| Reference # 11091-4/20/2022-0 2587 Business Parkway | Minden, NV 89423 | www.PublicRestroomCompany.com | p: 888-888-2060 | f: 888-888-1448 6 of 8
5. Not responsible for removing any soil, sand, or other debris as a result of trenching or installation.
6. Survey, location of building corners, finish floor elevation, excavation, and construction of subgrade building pad and footings (if required) per PRC plans.
7. Soil conditions not suitable for bearing a minimum of 1500 PSF with compaction to 90% maximum dry density shall require Owner/General Contractor correction before building placement. If no soils testing report is available before bid, Owner/General Contractor must verify site supporting soils at a minimum of 1500 PSF because that is the least we can place our structures on or Owner/General Contractor or engineer of record must design a foundation system to meet the imposed loads of site placement.
8. Improper water pressure, an undersized meter, or improper water volume flow to the building may necessitate a change order for installation of a building internal diaphragm tank to provide the minimum flow rate and static pressure of up to 60 PSI and a minimum of 40 PSI to properly flush the fixtures. Building water service chlorination, post installation, shall be by Owner/General Contractor.
9. Our bid included crane costs are based on a maximum 35’ radius from the center pin of the crane (10’ back from the rear of the crane) to the building center point of the furthest building module roof. If additional distance requires a larger crane, additional costs will be assessed by change order to the Owner/General Contractor.
10. Bonds, building permits, a site survey, special inspection fees, minor trash removal (nominally one pickup truck of shipping materials), final utility connections to the on-site water, sewer and electrical are by the Owner/General Contractor. Since the building is fully inspected and tested in plant, minor plumbing leaks (if water is not available when building site work installation is completed) is by the Owner/ General Contractor.
11. Site Traffic Control, if applicable, shall be by Owner/ General Contractor, not PRC.
12. Any equipment installation, site work or special inspections other than described within this proposal, shall be by Owner/General Contractor.
13. Backflow certification if applicable by Owner/ General Contractor.
Insurance and Prevailing Wage Certification:
PRC shall comply with the required insurance requirements, wage reports, and safety requirements for the project, including OSHA regulations.
Special Insurance to protect the Building before acceptance:
As PRC requires payment for each month of off-site construction, and since the building is not on owner property where their insurance will cover the building, we maintain a special policy that insures the property even when paid for off-site until the building is finally accepted by the owner. This special policy protects the Owner’s custom ordered materials to be used in the fabrication of the building during this period. PRC provides this Stock Throughput Policy to cover the building materials from supplier to manufacturer, while it is being built off-site, while in transit to the job site, during and after it is installed on-site until final acceptance. This special policy has a $1,000,000 coverage limit. This exceeds the cost of any single building we have offered for sale herein.

Errors and Omissions Insurance:
Our firm employs licensed architects, engineers, and drafting staff to provide design of our buildings.
Since these buildings are required to meet accessibility standards and building codes on site, and since we are the designer, we carry Errors and Omissions Insurance (E & O) to protect our clients from any errors. The policy covers a limit of up to $2,000,000 per occurrence and is more clearly explained in the insurance certificates we provide after receipt of a purchase order.

May 10, 2022 agenda item
TO: THE HONORABLE MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL
AGENDA: City Council Regular Meeting
DATE: May 17, 2022
ITEM #: F.15
SUBJECT: Dick Klenhard Ballfield Light Upgrade
Recommendation for Action: Staff recommends that the City Council adopt Resolution No, _____, authorizing the City Manager to execute a contract with Musco Sports Lighting, LLC in the amount of $157,083.68 through a cooperative purchasing agreement with Sourcewell Contract Number 071619-MSL, and authorize a contract contingency up to 10% ($15,708.37); and affirming the City Manager’s determination that the City’s public bidding requirement has been satisfied by another government agency’s competitive bid procedure and the City’s price is equal to the price negotiated by that government agency.
Staff Contact:
Jenna Moncrief, Management Analyst, (530) 661-2023, [email protected] Fiscal Impact:
The total cost of the project will be $157,083.68. The amount of $60,000 will use funds already appropriated in the FY22 budget from the Gibson Ranch Lighting and Landscape district. The amount of $97,083.68 will come from Measure F funds already appropriated in the FY22 budget for improvements to existing parks and facilities.
The contract contingency of $15,708.37 will also be paid out of existing Measure F appropriations as needed.
There is no impact to the General Fund.
Background:
On August 5, 1996, the City of Woodland broke ground on the Dick Klenhard Youth Ballfield Complex, located on Gum Avenue. The 8-acre park project was to include two lighted ball fields, playground equipment, picnic shelter and multi-use field, off-street parking, and a snack bar/restroom building. The Notice of Completion for the project was filed on June 20, 1997 and the dedication ceremony for the Dick Klenhard Youth Ballfield Complex took place on November 1, 1997.
Dick Klenhard ballfield complex is used throughout the year by the Woodland Cal Ripken Youth Baseball League for practices, games and tournaments. In addition, the Woodland Police Activities League uses the field during the summer for Junior Giants, a free program for boys and girls to learn the fundamentals of baseball.
Discussion:
The light poles and lights at Dick Klenhard ballfield complex are from the original construction. The bulbs have had to be replaced at least twice since the opening of the ballfield. Now, these bulbs are becoming obsolete and Staff may not be able to find replacements when the current bulbs fail.
Funding at this time will support the replacement of lighting on all three poles at one of the two fields. Staff proposes to enter into a contract with Musco Sports Lighting, LLC for Musco’s Light-Structure System retrofit.
The project will be for the removal of the current lighting and retrofitting with LED lighting for the three existing 200’ light poles with guaranteed light levels of 50 foot-candles in the infield and 30 foot-candles in the outfield.
This project would be beneficial for several reasons. First, there would be a reduction of energy and
maintenance costs by an estimate of fifty to eighty-five percent. This is due in part to the LED lights being more efficient than the current bulbs. In addition, there will be no maintenance costs for the first twenty-five years due to a 25-year warranty that includes materials and onsite labor. Another benefit of the new lighting system is a reduction of spill light and glare by an estimated fifty percent or more. Also, Staff have been receiving complaints from the neighborhood about a loud buzzing sound when the lights are in use. This buzzing is from the ballasts in the current lights that are starting to fail. The field that will be having the lights replaced is the field with the failing ballast as well as the field that is closest to residential homes. This project will also greatly reduce the light spill that shines on these homes, and will eliminate the buzzing coming from the lights on this field.
Staff proposes to utilize a cooperative purchasing agreement with Sourcewell (Contract Number: 071619- MSL). The Department has determined that the cooperative purchasing agreement satisfies the requirement of the City’s Purchasing Ordinance (Municipal Code section 3.32.140c). Cooperative purchasing is “Procurement conducted by, or on behalf of, one or more Public Procurement Units” as defined by the American Bar Association Model Procurement Code for State and Local Governments. In 2019, Sourcewell issued a request for proposals for Sports Lighting with Related Supplies and Services. Proposals were rated/scored for conformance to terms/conditions to include documentation; pricing (400 of the 1000 points); financial, industry, and marketplace successes; bidders' ability to sell and deliver contracts nationally; bidders' marketing plan; value added attributes; warranty coverages; and depth and breadth of offered equipment, products, or services. Nine vendors submitted proposals, three of which were selected to enter into contracts. Musco Sports Lighting, LLC was ranked number one. The Musco Sports Lighting, LLC contract with Sourcewell is valid from August 29, 2019 through August 27, 2023, and can be extended for a year. After council action on this item, Staff will work with the City Attorney on a contract to be executed by the City Manager for the retrofitting of the lighting.
Conclusion:
Staff recommends that the City Council adopt Resolution No. _____, authorizing the City Manager to execute a contract with Musco Sports Lighting, LLC in the amount of $157,083.68 through a cooperative purchasing agreement with Sourcewell Contract Number 071619-MSL, and authorize a contract contingency up to 10% ($15,708.37); and affirming the City Manager’s determination that the City’s public bidding requirement has been satisfied by another government agency’s competitive bid procedure and the City’s price is equal to the price negotiated by that government agency.

Fiscal Impact:
Perfect Union, a commercial cannabis retailer that originally approached the City with this inquiry, funded the initial Ordinance development costs through a developer deposit account. The City’s General Fund has covered costs subsequent to the November 16, 2021, Council meeting. Depending on the final implementation of a retail cannabis program by the City Council, there is potential for realized revenue through negotiated operating agreements and/or development agreements with applicants that receive Conditional Use Permits. The proposed fees are intended to fully recover staff costs associated with administering and enforcing the City's Commercial Cannabis Program. Total revenue to be generated by the proposed fees will depend entirely upon the number of Commercial Cannabis Business Permits issued by the City, limited by the caps imposed on the number of Conditional Use Permits established by the City Council.
Currently, the City collects two types of revenue associated with cannabis businesses: Permit and Community Benefit Fees.
Permit Revenue, when a new business applies for a permit the City will collect $46,280 to allow for staff to review and process the application. This includes site visits by both Community Development and Police staff. Thereafter, businesses are responsible for requesting a renewal of the permit on an annual basis. These permit fees pay for program oversight, Police site visits and Police compliance, accounting, and an annual financial audit. Staff,over the last few years, have refined the Permit renewal cost for Manufacturing and Distribution businesses, staff estimates it will cost $10,000 for a financial audit and $7,621 in staff time; for Testing/Lab businesses, staff estimates it will cost $10,000 for a financial audit and $6,115 in staff time; and for Retail businesses, staff estimates it will cost $12,000 for a financial audit and $7,621 in staff time. These revised renewal permit fees are included in the staff recommendation as a change to existing fees.
Currently, existing cannabis businesses are comprised of two manufacturing and one distribution. The City does not make revenue above the cost of service on these fees and is legally only allowed to charge the City’s cost of doing business. From FY2018/19 through FY2021/21 the City has collected $365,551 and the City estimates $46,326 in permit renewal fees in FY2021/22. Total revenue over the course of four (4) fiscal years is estimated to be $411,877. See attachment 10 (ATT 10).
The City also collects a Community Benefit Fee that has been agreed to by the existing cannabis businesses in the City. The City negotiates an operating agreement with each of the cannabis businesses whereby a percent of gross receipts is remitted to the City. These funds assist the City in providing general services to the community. The percentage of the gross receipt sales is negotiated with each business but is normally about 5%. From FY2019/20 through FY2020/21 the City has collected $344,373 and the City estimates $240,000 in community benefit fees in FY2021/22. Total revenue over the course of three (3) fiscal years is estimated to be $584,373. See attachment 10 (ATT10). It is difficult to estimate the future potential additional community benefit funds that may be realized from cannabis retail sales as it will depend upon the success of the business and the negotiated percentage of the gross receipt sales. At minimum, assuming a similar realized community benefit as existing businesses, total additional annual revenue will be a minimum of $240,000, but likely much greater given the higher volume of taxable sales from retail uses.
Report in Brief:
This report presents the proposed amendments to the City of Woodland Municipal Code, including Chapter
17.110 Zoning Ordinance, to the Interim Zoning Code, and to the Downtown Specific Plan to provide regulations allowing consideration for commercial cannabis retail activities. The report also presents proposed amendments to Chapter 5.28 of the City of Woodland Municipal Code regarding Cannabis Business Permits and updates to the regulatory permit fees related to cannabis businesses. The Council is also asked to weigh in and provide input regarding future cannabis retail conditional use permit application processing and review.
This item was previously reviewed on November 16, 2021, at which time the City Council directed staff to consider additional amendments regarding buffers for sensitive uses, overconcentration, and social equity requirements. City staff have reviewed subsequent amendments with the City Council Subcommittee on March 4, 2022 and the joint Planning Commission and City Council Subcommittee on March 15, 2022. On May 5, 2022, the Planning Commission, at their regularly scheduled meeting, reviewed the proposed amendments and recommended approval by the Council, on a vote of 6-0, with one member absent.
The proposed zoning amendments will allow up to four commercial cannabis retail permits for storefront sales subject to the granting of conditional use permits. The City currently allows up to six commercial cannabis conditional use permits in the industrial districts for cannabis manufacturing, distribution, and testing. The proposed amendments will establish standards for the review and approval of retail cannabis uses. Delivery only uses are not be permitted within the City. Retail sales would be allowed for consideration in several commercial districts, including Corridor Mixed Use districts (West Main, East Main, East Street, Kentucky), Community Commercial, Regional Commercial Light Industrial Flex, and in the Downtown Specific Plan District A. Cannabis retail sales are not proposed in the industrial districts.
Amendments to both the Zoning Ordinance Chapter 17.110 and the Cannabis Business Permit Chapter 5.28 have been provided to address concerns raised by the City Council at their November meeting.
The report also recommends that the City Council direct staff to prepare materials so that the Council can consider placing a measure on the November 8, 2022 ballot for a cannabis business tax. Cannabis business taxes of this type are common in communities that allow for retail cannabis businesses and would provide a needed source of revenue to the City
Background:
On December 5, 2017, the Woodland City Council approved the regulatory framework to allow cannabis uses including land use zoning regulations, business permit requirements, fees for cost recovery, and review process. Ordinance 1629 added provisions (Section 17.110) related to the Zoning of commercial cannabis to allow consideration of cannabis manufacturing, distribution, and testing uses in the Industrial and Industrial Light Industrial Flex Overlay districts. Ordinance 1630 added a new chapter to the Municipal Code (Section
5.28) for commercial cannabis business permits which address the regulatory and operational regulations for cannabis businesses. Resolution 6982 approved regulatory permit fees for commercial cannabis. All cannabis conditional use permits (CUP) require review and recommendation from the Planning Commission with final action by the City Council.
Section 17.110.050 of the Woodland Zoning Ordinance allows for consideration of up to six (6) conditional use permits (CUPs) for commercial cannabis manufacturing, distribution and testing facilities, which may be located in the Industrial and Industrial/Light Industrial Flex Zones. A CUP may cover a single individual location with one use, or a CUP may include approval for multiple uses collocated at one site through a master conditional use permit. To date, four of the six allowed CUPs have been approved. Three of the approved CUP locations are currently operated by commercial cannabis businesses (2 manufacturing uses and 1 distribution use). A fourth master CUP was approved, allowing for manufacturing, distribution and testing collocated at one site. However, a non-cannabis user currently occupies that site. A CUP runs with the land unless revoked.
The current Ordinance does not allow for retail storefronts (dispensaries) or delivery from businesses in Woodland. The ordinance prohibits commercial cannabis cultivation (indoor and outdoor). Commercial cannabis businesses may not be located any closer than 600 feet to any sensitive use, as measured from parcel to parcel.
In 2021, interested members of the community and cannabis industry approached the City to request consideration for amendments to the current regulations to allow retail cannabis dispensaries. In response to the most recent inquiry from Perfect Union and their commitment to fund the City’s efforts to evaluate ordinance updates, the City initially engaged an Ad Hoc Cannabis Subcommittee made up of members of the City Council, Planning Commission, and supported by City Planning staff and the City Attorney. Based on the recommendations of the Subcommittee, ordinance amendments were drafted.
On October 7, 2021, the Planning Commission reviewed the amendments and recommended approval by the City Council. However, at their November 16, 2021, meeting, the City Council directed staff to consider additional amendments to the Ordinance regarding allowed locations, buffers for sensitive uses, overconcentration, and social equity requirements. Subsequent amendments were reviewed with the City Council Cannabis Subcommittee on March 4, 2022, and the joint Planning Commission and Council Subcommittee on March 15, 2022.
Discussion:
Zoning
The purpose of a zoning ordinance is to provide land use controls over certain uses consistent with State Law. Zoning generally regulates specified uses (permitted, conditionally permitted or prohibited), where uses may be located, and sets the entitlement process to determine what gulatory body shall consider and approve those uses. All proposed or approved zoning regulations and cannabis uses may be later amended based on further Council direction.
Recommended edits to the Zoning Ordinance Chapter 17.110 subsequent to November 16, 2021, include:
• Requiring additional information regarding the applicant's experience and qualifications. • Requiring the applicant’s plans to ensure strong community relations and compatibility with the surrounding neighborhood.
• Authorizing the Community Development Director to prepare evaluation and scoring criteria, which may
be
used for making recommendations to the Planning Commission and City Council. • Requiring that public notice be provided to all properties within a 600-foot radius of the proposed project site, 10-days prior to any scheduled public hearing date. • Requiring that a highly visible public notice, defined as 4-foot by 8-foot in size, be posted on site. • Requiring that no cannabis retailer shall be closer than 500-feet to any other cannabis retailer and that no more than two (2) cannabis retailers shall be located within 1,000 feet of each other in order to limit overconcentration.
• Allowing the City Council the ability to consider exceptions to the 600-foot buffer and concentration requirements based on specific findings, such as the separation of cannabis retail uses by a significant physical barrier, no expressed evidence of public concern, potential economic revitalization to the proximate area, and that there will be no public health, safety, or nuisance issues.
The amended and updated draft Chapter 17.110 of the Zoning Ordinance is included as Attachment 2. The original proposed revisions to the Zoning Code, Interim Zoning Ordinance, and Downtown Specific Plan District A are shown in black bold and underline. Subsequent amended text to the Zoning Code Chapter
17.110 is shown in blue bold and underline. Amendments to the Interim Zoning Ordinance and Downtown Specific Plan District A are shown in Attachments 3 and 4. A map providing illustrations of proposed cannabis retail land use locations and the 600-foot sensitivity buffer are provided in Attachment 8. A copy of the City Council staff report from November 16, 2021, is provided in Attachment 9.
Cannabis Business and Operating Requirements
Every business interested in opening a commercial cannabis business in the City of Woodland will need a CUP, Cannabis Business Permit (CBP) and State of California License. The CBP ordinance, Chapter 5.28 of the Municipal Code, provides the regulatory conditions for cannabis business operations.
The CBP review requires the submittal of extensive information regarding business operations. The proposed amendments to Chapter 5.28 allow for issuance of CBPs to cannabis retailers, and include specific operational requirements that will apply to those retailers. The original proposed revisions are shown in black bold and underline. Subsequent amended text to Chapter 5.28 is shown in blue bold and underline. (Attachments 5 and
6.)
Recommended edits to the Cannabis Business Permit Ordinance Chapter 5.28, subsequent to November 16, 2021 include amendments to the Application Requirements (5.28.180) including:
• Requiring additional information from the applicant and interested parties concerning prior experience, certifications, and training.
• Requiring additional information regarding Business Operations (5.28.180.6) including:
o Additional information in the Business Plan
o Providing a Community Benefit Plan
o Providing Social Policy and Local Enterprise Plan
o Clarifications to the Community Relations and Neighborhood Compatibility Plan
The new requirement for a Community Benefit Plan requires submittal of a plan describing the benefits that the cannabis business has provided or will provide to the local community including direct aid, participation in, and commitment to funding the work of local non-profits, community, civic, or social service based organizations.
The new requirement for a Social Policy and Local Enterprise Plan requires submittal of a plan describing the applicant’s plans for local outreach and hiring of residents of the City of Woodland and/or compensation for continuing education, and any other actions intended to benefit the local workforce and/or the applicant’s local employees.
The amended requirement for a Community Relations and Neighborhood Compatibility Plan requires the
applicant to describe how the cannabis business will proactively address and respond to complaints from the surrounding community related to noise, odor, litter, vehicle, and pedestrian traffic and any other activities that could become a nuisance.
All businesses must also go through a similar review with the State Bureau of Cannabis Control.
Regulatory Permit Fees
On December 19, 2017, the City adopted Resolution 6982 to allow for cost recovery associated with commercial cannabis activities. The fees are charged at the time of initial approval of the Cannabis Business Permit (CBP) and at annual renewal.
New Business Commercial Cannabis Permit Fees are in addition to any Conditional Use Permit application fee, and are charged on a one-time non-refundable basis to cover costs associated with processing applications from businesses applying for a City of Woodland CBP. The New Business fees were established in December 2017 and remain unchanged except for the addition of a Retail Category, and that the fees be subject to an annual Consumer Price Index (CPI). This would allow for better cost recovery and is similar to most fees assessed city-wide.
When a new manufacturing, distribution, or retail business applies for a permit, the City will collect $46,280 to allow for staff to review and process the application. Testing and Delivery businesses pay a lower initial startup fee. This fee includes site visits by both Community Development and Police. Thereafter, businesses are responsible for requesting a renewal of the permit on an annual basis. These permit fees pay for program oversight, police site visits and police compliance, accounting, and an annual financial audit. The renewal fees are based on the type of cannabis business and previously have ranged from $30,000 to $32,500. Testing/Lab and Delivery Permits have had lower renewal fees.
Renewal Commercial Cannabis Permit Fees are different from the New Business Commercial Cannabis Permit Fees as far as cost to the city to monitor/inspect and audit. After a business has begun its operations, staff typically spend less time monitoring these businesses. Inspections and code adherence is carried out by police staff, while Finance is responsible for monthly collection/accounting of the community benefit proceeds as well as carrying out an annual audit of each business' gross receipt sales.
In May of 2020, City Council authorized a reduction in renewal fees from December 2017. More recently, the city has recently had the opportunity to re-assess actual costs associated with the existing cannabis administration and enforcement activities and has also evaluated anticipated costs with the addition of retail storefront cannabis. As stated herein, these fees are intended for full cost recovery. The proposed revised renewal fees, including retail storefront uses, are provided below:
Similar to the New Business Permit fees, staff is recommending that these renewal fees be subject to an annual Consumer Price Index (CPI). (Resolution provided in Attachment 7)
Planning Commission Review
On October 7, 2021, the Planning Commission held a public hearing to consider the proposed land use/zoning amendments. After reviewing the report and taking testimony, the Planning Commission voted unanimously to recommend approval of the amendments to City Council. There were five members present with one absence. On May 5, 2022 the Planning Commission reviewed the updated amendments to the previously proposed ordinance. After review of the report and taking public testimony, the Planning Commission voted to recommend approval of the subsequent amendments to the City Council by a vote of 6-0, with one absence.
Environmental Determination
The proposed Zoning Ordinance amendment imposes reasonable zoning regulations on commercial cannabis uses to ensure that such uses are conditionally permitted in existing and proposed future zones, subject to zoning standards and locational restrictions that minimize access by minors and provide performance evaluations. Accordingly, this Ordinance will not result in any significant change in the environment within the meaning of Section 15061(b)(3) of Title 14 of the California Code of Regulations. Additionally, commercial cannabis uses authorized by this Ordinance are subject to the granting of a conditional use permit, which requires discretionary review subject to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA).
The proposed regulatory ordinance establishes a permitting process and reasonable regulations on commercial cannabis businesses, to the extent that such businesses are authorized to operate in the City pursuant to state and local law, and does not independently authorize any particular cannabis business or use to establish or operate in the City. The regulatory business ordinance is therefore not a project subject to CEQA. As such, the Ordinance is additionally exempt from CEQA review pursuant to Business and Professions Code Section 26055(h).
Cannabis Business Tax Measure
City staff is also proposing that the City Council direct staff return to Council to discuss a potential ballot measure that would enact a local tax on cannabis businesses that would help to fund general city services. Pursuant to Proposition 218 (California Constitution, Article XIIIC), all general taxes which are imposed, extended or increased must be submitted to the electorate and approved by a majority vote of the qualified electors voting in the election. As a result, if the City Council desires to impose a local tax on cannabis businesses within the City, the proposed tax must be approved by the voters in order to go into effect. Local taxes on cannabis businesses are common in communities that allow for retail cannabis businesses, and can be an additional source of revenue for local services. In the event that the cannabis business tax passed, it would replace the community benefit fee, as it applies to existing cannabis businesses in the City. In order to place a ballot measure on the November 8, 2022 election, the City Council must pass (by a 2/3 vote) a resolution placing the measure on the ballot on or before the June 21, 2022 Council meeting. If directed by Council, staff will return to Council next month with a proposed ballot measure for your consideration.
Cannabis Financial Audits
Lastly, the City has engaged HdL Companies to assist the City in performing cannabis financial audits to ensure that the City is receiving community benefit fee as agreed to in the various operating agreements. The City entered into a one (1) year agreement with HdL in March 2021, in order to audit cannabis business for the 2021 fiscal year. The cost of audit for the year was $28,500. HdL has been a instrumental is assisting the City in recognizing accounting errors and has ensured that existing cannabis businesses have remitted all community benefit fees due to the City. The City wishes to continue this contractual agreement with HdL and is recommending a contract extension of $90,000 or $30,000 per year (for three (3) years). Total contract would not exceed $118,500. Contract costs are paid for by annual permit renewal fees.
Conclusion:
Staff recommends that the City Council:
1. Receive this Report;
2. Conduct a public hearing;
3. Find that neither of these Ordinances constitute a project subject to California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) review pursuant to Section 15061 (b) (3) of Title 14 of the California Code of Regulations as set forth in this Ordinance; and
4. Introduce and waive the first reading of Ordinance No. _____, to amend Chapter 17.110 of the City of Woodland Zoning Code, Exhibit B of the Interim Zoning Code, and Table 8.1 of the Downtown Specific Plan;
5. Introduce and waive the first reading of Ordinance No. _____, to amend Chapter 5.28 of the City of Woodland Municipal Code related to Cannabis Business Permits; and
6. Adopt Resolution No. _____, to update Regulatory Permit Fees related to cannabis businesses.
7. Approve a $90,000 contract amendment with HdL Companies for a total contract amount of $118,500.
8. Direct staff to return to City Council with a proposed ballot measure for the November 8, 2022 election to establish a cannabis business tax in the City of Woodland.

8.3 ALLOWED LAND USES
Table 8-1 shows the land use matrix that will be used by the City in determining appropriate land uses within the Downtown. The matrix uses three symbols to indicate whether a use is allowed, conditionally allowed, or subject to a CUP process. If a land use is not listed on the matrix, the use is not permitted within the Downtown area. The Community Development Director will determine which category best fits a given use if questions arise.
To determine if a land use is allowed in a district, the following steps will be taken:
1. Find the closest land use type in the left hand column of the matrix (land uses are grouped by categories) and then find the appropriate district on the matrix (in what area is the site located, see Figure 3-3, “Downtown Districts” for locations). Where the row and column meet will be a cell that contains either a “,”a “,”a “Z,” a “C,” or a blank space.
2. If a “” appears in the cell, that land use type is an allowed use in that district. Development can proceed subject to the project meeting the other requirements specified in this Specific Plan and other applicable City requirements and permits.
3. If a “” appears, the land use is a conditionally allowed use. Uses with this designation have previously been required to go through a CUP process. To enhance the responsiveness of the City while still protecting the future of the Downtown, a set of performance standards has been developed, and is included in Section 8.5, “Performance Standards.” Projects in this category will be reviewed by the Zoning Administrator to determine if the project meets the appropriate performance standards, complies with the other requirements of this Specific Plan and applicable City regulations, and does not pose any design or operational features that would require warrant further public review. If acceptable, the project can proceed like an allowed use, with no CUP required. A CUP may be required if the performance standards cannot be met, the applicant does not concur with the requirements presented, or the Zoning Administrator determines that further review is required.
4. Some uses possess locational, use, structural, traffic, or operating characteristics requiring special consideration best handled through a Zoning Administrator Permit (ZAP) in order to be compatible with neighboring properties. These uses, noted with a “Z” must go through a Zoning Administrator Permit process which allows for public consultation and if needed a staff level public hearing.
8. Polices and Standards
March 18, 2003 Page 8-3
5.Some uses have unique or significant siting issues that are best handled through a CUP process. These uses, noted with a “C,” must go through a CUP process. Adult-oriented uses are subject to the CUP process and the requirements found in Section 25-21-75 of City of Woodland Zoning Ordinance.

AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
WOODLAND AMENDING CHAPTER 5.28 TO THE CITY OF
WOODLAND MUNICIPAL CODE RELATED TO REGULATORY AND
PERMITTING REQUIREMENTS FOR COMMERCIAL CANNABIS
BUSINESSES LOCATED IN THE CITY OF WOODLAND
WHEREAS¸ on June 27, 2017, the Governor signed SB 94 into law, a budget trailer bill effective immediately, to consolidate state licensing of medicinal and recreational “adult-use” commercial cannabis businesses into a single regulatory scheme, now titled the “Medicinal and Adult-Use Cannabis Regulation and Safety Act” (MAUCRSA); and WHEREAS, state law authorizes the City of Woodland to either prohibit or regulate commercial cannabis uses; and
WHEREAS¸ the City Council of the City of Woodland has determined that reasonable regulations regarding the establishment of commercial cannabis cultivation, manufacturing, testing, research, distribution, and retail delivery businesses in the City, as conditionally permitted in the City’s Zoning Code, will provide an appropriate balance between the City’s interests in fostering certain commercial, agricultural, and research-related activities while also protecting the public health, safety, and welfare of Woodland residents; and WHEREAS¸ on December 5, 2017, the City Council of the City of Woodland approved Ordinances 1629 and 1630 thereby adding Chapter 17.110 and Chapter 5.28 to establish zoning and business permit regulations regarding commercial cannabis manufacturing, testing, and distribution businesses in the City; and
WHEREAS, the City Council finds that the proposed amendments to Chapter 5.28 allow for issuance of CBPs to cannabis retailers, and include specific operational requirements that will apply to those retailers. The proposed amendments additionally add a cannabis work permit requirements that will provide for annual review of cannabis business employees and ensure that they remain in compliance with the City’s requirements regarding background checks and criminal history and additional security requirements for all cannabis businesses that reflect best practices.
WHEREAS, the City Council finds that this Ordinance will not result in any significant changes to the character or use of properties in the City and is not a project with the potential for causing a significant effect on the environment requiring California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) analysis, and is categorically exempt from CEQA; and NOW, THEREFORE, the City Council of the City of Woodland does hereby ordain as follows:
Section 1.Amendment. Chapter 5.28 of the Woodland Municipal Code is hereby amended to read as set forth in Exhibit A, attached hereto and incorporated herein by this reference.
82093.00006\30306943.1
Section 2.Severability. If any provision, clause, sentence, or paragraph of this Ordinance or the application thereof to any person or circumstances shall be held invalid, such invalidity shall not affect the other provisions of this Ordinance that can be given effect without the invalid provision or application, and to this end the provisions of this Ordinance are declared to be severable.
Section 3. CEQA. The City Council hereby finds that this Ordinance merely establishes a permitting process and reasonable regulations on commercial cannabis businesses, to the extent such businesses are authorized to operate in the City pursuant to state and local law, and does not independently authorize any particular cannabis business or use to establish or operate in the City.
Accordingly, it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility this Ordinance will have a significant effect on the environment. This Ordinance is therefore not a project subject to California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) review pursuant to Section 15061(b)(3) of Title 14 of the California Code of Regulations.
Section 4. Effective Date. This Ordinance shall take effect thirty (30) days after its adoption.
