Alan Hirsch: CalTrans whistleblower has accused CalTrans of violating environmental law during the I-80 widening project. I-80 emissions make up 10% of the City of Sacramento emissions. Arguing tonight that SAC needs to put the topic on their agenda. Adding the one lane is 13% of Woodland’s carbon footprint. CalTrans has been accused of starting project illegally with money from another project and is focusing on smaller projects rather than larger system- wide projects. CalTrans has been accused of underrepresenting their impact. Asking SAC to put the topic on the agenda, look at CalTrans’ environmental impacts, and urge City Council to take action.
Spencer mentions the 3-minute public comment time limit, recommends putting this item on the agenda to keep discussing, and mentions that he has Alan’s contact information for further questions.

Serena: Shoutouts Yolo Sol, a new collective to lift up the knowledge around the historical native plants in the area – website recently launched. Yearlong project surrounding teachings on the Wintun Nation native plants and conservation efforts.

Peterson: Working on creating a usable bibliography on bike trails and bike systems.
E. STAFF REPORTS
Spencer: City received tool to create an updated GHG inventory, consultant has a couple leftover hours to add some useful additions to the tool. Court Street bike safety enhancements are on hold because YoloTD is in the process of studying future transit hub locations.

Council would like to wait on Court Street improvements to see where YoloTD decides to move the hub so that the projects do not clash.
F. MINUTES
RECOMMENDATION FOR ACTION: Staff recommends that the Sustainability Advisory Committee approve its September 2023 meeting minutes.
Ullrey moves to approve the minutes, Peterson seconds. Passes unanimously (Whitaker abstains).
G. PRESENTATIONS
RECOMMENDATION FOR ACTION: Staff recommends that the Sustainability Advisory Committee receive a presentation on the City's Comprehensive Zoning Code update.
Spencer: Zoning code is a way to implement the General Plan. Woodland’s General Plan was adopted in 2017. Been operating with zoning code, general plan, and downtown plan, but goal is to consolidate and streamline the Zoning Code. Zoning code has existed for 100 years and has
been periodically updated, but a comprehensive update is rare. The current zoning code is outdated and difficult for community members, developers, and staff to work through the code, making it difficult to push projects forward. Current code does not fully address the entitlement review requirements and requires our planners to work inefficiently by cross referencing multiple documents. Current zoning documents lack graphics demonstrating what the plan says. Many new state requirements that zoning code is not up-to-date on, particularly surrounding housing.
Updated zoning code maintains the community’s character (ex. historic buildings) while still developing new housing, responds to economic realities and trends, focuses on housing production, incorporates the currently separate downtown plan into the overall document, adheres to current state-wide mandates, is user-friendly to everyone (staff, community members, developers, etc.), and complies with the CEQA. Highlights #4: “Allowing our guidelines to be predictable for developers and our staff creates efficiencies that lead to the type of well-located developments that we want to see: long corridors near resources, public transit, and bike lines.” Notes that zoning cannot guarantee what type of tenants will comply with the zoning. The General Plan is our land use policy, but zoning is a way to implement that. Reviews map that shows zoning code changes. It is a public draft meant for feedback, draft will be refined before going to City Council for approval.
Planning staff requests feedback by November 1st.
RECOMMENDATION FOR ACTION: Staff recommends that the Sustainability Advisory Committee receive a presentation on the new BeeLine point-to-point public transit service.
Moved earlier in the meeting.
H. BUSINESS ITEMS
RECOMMENDATION FOR ACTION: Staff recommends that the Sustainability Advisory Committee continue its outreach and engagement discussion.
Discussion topics: website landing page, enticing folks who aren’t “tuned in,” public display of metrics, bill insert opportunity
Committee agrees that this topic should be put on the agenda for future meetings to discuss possible formal recommendation to Council. Outreach and Engagement Subcommittee will meet prior to prepare a draft motion for City Council.
I. WORK GROUP UPDATES
J. LONG RANGE CALENDAR
RECOMMENDATION FOR ACTION: Staff recommends that the Sustainability Advisory Committee receive the Long Range Calendar for informational purposes only.
K. ADJOURN – 7:47 PM
TO: THE HONORABLE MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL
AGENDA: City Council Regular Meeting
DATE: December 5, 2023
ITEM #: G.5
SUBJECT: Approval of a Settlement Agreement and Release by and among the City, TL Revival, LP and Sacramento
Housing Alliance
Recommendation for Action: Staff recommends that City Council approve a Settlement Agreement and Release by and among the City, TL Revival, LP and Sacramento Housing Alliance in the form enclosed with this Staff Report, and direct the City Manager to execute such Settlement Agreement and Release on behalf of the City.
Staff Contact:
Ken Hiatt, City Manager (530) 661-5802, [email protected] Fiscal Impact:
If the Settlement Agreement is approved, the City will receive an additional $154,000 in affordable housing in lieu fees, which shall be used to facilitate the development of affordable housing in the City.
Background:
On October 20, 2020, the City and TL Revival’s predecessor in interest TL Partners X L.P. entered into an Amended and Restated Development Agreement for residential development of certain property in the Spring Lake Specific Plan Area referred to as Beeghly Ranch Lot D and Lot G. In that Amended and Restated Development Agreement, the City and TL Revival’s predecessor in interest agreed to develop and sell seventeen R-15 low-income single family dwelling units as part of the Project. TL Revival, which assumed responsibility for the development, sold three of the affordable units, but was not successful in selling the other fourteen required units, and approached the City with a request to amend the Amended and Restated Development Agreement to allow TL Revival to pay affordable housing in-lieu fees in place of constructing and selling the remaining fourteen units.
The City processed a proposed First Amendment to the Amended and Restated Development Agreement to allow TL Revival to pay affordable housing in-lieu fees of $39,000 per affordable unit for the remaining fourteen affordable units, for a total of $546,000 in affordable housing in-lieu fees. Sacramento Housing Alliance objected to the proposed First Amendment before the Planning Commission and the City Council, arguing that the in-lieu fees of $39,000 per affordable unit violated the Spring Lake Specific Plan and the City’s Housing Element. On September 5, 2023, the City adopted Ordinance No. 1706, which approved the First Amendment. After the approval of the First Amendment, Sacramento Housing Alliance continued to object to the First Amendment, and reserved their right to pursue litigation to challenge the approval of the First Amendment. However, they did state that they were willing to meet with the City to work on resolving the dispute.
Since that time, representatives for the City, TL Revival and Sacramento Housing Alliance have met multiple times to seek a resolution to this dispute. The parties have come to a proposed resolution, reflected in the proposed Settlement and Release Agreement.
Discussion:
Under the terms of the Settlement Agreement, TL Revival will pay an additional $154,000 in affordable housing in-lieu fees to the City within 30 days of execution of the Agreement by all parties. This would be an additional $11,000 per affordable unit, meaning that TL Revival will pay $50,000 per affordable unit, for
a total affordable housing in-lieu fee payment of $700,000 for the development. The full amount of affordable housing in-lieu fees paid will be deposited into the Housing Trust Fund of the City.
Within ten days of execution of the Agreement, TL Revival and the City will provide documentation to SHA demonstrating that the initial three residential units were sold to low income households. The City will also agree that in the event that the City amends the Spring Lake Specific Plan and/or the Spring Lake Affordable Housing Plan to amend the methodology for determining affordable housing in-lieu fees to be paid by developers within the Spring Lake Specific Plan area, the City will require that affordable housing fees be set at a minimum payment of $50,000 per required affordable unit, with annual adjustments for inflation.
Finally, the City will prepare an annual report on the implementation of the City’s inclusionary housing requirements, including the number of affordable housing units constructed and the amount of affordable housing in-lieu fees collected by project and specific plan area, if applicable, and shall report on the City’s strategies addressing affordable housing from any and all specific plans, including specific information about in-lieu fees collected and the affordability and regulatory controls on any on-site affordable units constructed. A copy of each of these reports shall be provided to Sacramento Housing Alliance each year.
Conclusion:
Staff recommends that City Council approve a Settlement Agreement and Release by and among the City, TL Revival, LP and Sacramento Housing Alliance in the form enclosed with this Staff Report, and direct the City Manager to execute such Settlement Agreement and Release on behalf of the City.

1. Settlement and Release Agreement
82093.00006\41847086.1
SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT & RELEASE
This Settlement Agreement and Release (“Agreement”) is made and entered into by and among the City of Woodland, a California municipal corporation (the “City”), TL Revival, LP, a California limited partnership (“TL Revival”) and Sacramento Housing Alliance, a California nonprofit public benefit corporation (“SHA”).

B. Pursuant to the terms of the Amended and Restated Development Agreement, City and TL Revival’s predecessor in interest agreed to develop and sell seventeen (17) R-15 low- income single-family dwelling units (“Affordable Units”) as part of the Project.

TL Revival has since made that payment of $546,000 in accordance with the First Amendment.
D. SHA submitted written comments on the First Amendment to the Planning Commission and City Council, arguing that the proposed affordable housing in-lieu fee included in the First Amendment for the remaining 14 Affordable Units violated the requirements of the Spring Lake Specific Plan, the Spring Lake Affordable Housing Plan and the City’s adopted Housing Element.

Staff Contact: Rosie Ledesma, Environmental Resources Program Manager, (530) 661-2059, [email protected]
Fiscal Impact:
Waste Management provides a 15% franchise fee to the City. If the customer base remains similar to the current customer base, the 2023 rate adjustment would result in an increase of approximately $50,000-$70,000 in franchise fees in calendar year 2024.
Background:
Waste Management provides collection and disposal of trash, recyclables, organic waste, and street sweeping services for the City of Woodland pursuant to the terms of the amended franchise agreement between the City and Waste Management dated July 1, 2011. With regard to rate adjustments, the agreement allows Waste Management to (1) increase its service rates in accordance with changes in the U.S. City Average Consumer Price Index (CPI) for All Urban Consumers in the most recent 12-month period for which data are available, up to a maximum of 5%, and (2) incorporate any increase in landfill disposal fees above the previous year’s disposal fees. The base rates may be adjusted each year by these amounts.
Yolo County operates the landfill and adjusts the landfill disposal fees each July 1. Because landfill fees go into effect six months before the Waste Management rates are adjusted, the agreement allows Waste Management to recover the increased disposal fees paid by the company during the preceding July-December period through an additional adjustment to the customer rates. These adjustments are not factored into the base rate that is used to calculate subsequent years’ rate adjustments.
According to the franchise agreement, provided that adequate supporting information has been submitted by the company, any requested CPI adjustment and landfill pass-through increases shall be deemed approved and shall take effect on the following January 1, and the City Council shall not deny a requested disposal fee adjustment unless it finds that Waste Management has not provided adequate supporting information.
Discussion:
In accordance with the terms of the franchise agreement, Waste Management has submitted a request to implement an annual adjustment to its customer rates, effective January 1, 2024. The
2024 rate request includes a 3.67% CPI increase for the 12-month period ending August 2023 and the following increases for each commodity:
Annual Adjustment 2022-23 Rate 2023-24 Rate Percent Increase Less CPI Waste disposal fee $61.06/ton $62.77/ton 2.80% -0.87%
Organics/GW disposal
fee
$78.00/ton $79.50/ton 1.92% -1.75%
C&D disposal fee $87.00/ton $80.00/ton -8.05% -11.72%
The landfill increases are applied only to the disposal portion of the applicable rates and only by the amount that exceeds the CPI increase, which is calculated as the final disposal fee increase, or decrease in the event that the CPI is higher than the disposal increase, which was the case in all three commodities this year.
Customer Impacts:
These adjustments will raise the rates for an average Woodland household by $1.25 per month, from $38.41 to $39.66 per month. Charges for commercial waste services will generally increase by about
5.2% over the commercial customer rates for 2023, depending on container size and frequency of service. Charges for C&D roll-off containers will decrease from $7-$20 per load, with an average of
2.5% increase for all other roll-off containers such as trash, wood, and recycling.
Staff reviewed the documentation provided by Waste Management and found all the calculations to be appropriate and the documentation to be adequate for the 2024 annual rate adjustment consistent with the terms of the franchise agreement.
Conclusion:
Staff recommends that the City Council approve Resolution No. _____, to 1) receive the Waste Management 2024 rate adjustment information, 2) accept it as complete and adequate, and 3) deem the proposed 2024 rate adjustments approved.

ITEM #: G.7
SUBJECT: 2022 Assistance to Firefighters Grant (AFG) Award Acceptance and Appropriation
Recommendation for Action: Staff recommends that the City Council adopt Resolution No. _____, authorizing the City Manager and the Fire Department to
1. Accept the 2022 Assistance to Firefighters Grant (AFG) Award for battery powered extrication tools and related equipment.
2. Appropriate $136,043 to Fund 1330 to fund the initial expenditure.
Staff Contact:
Eric Zane, Fire Chief - (530)661-5861, [email protected]
Fiscal Impact:
The AFG award reimburses 90% of costs, requiring a 10% recipient match. The Woodland Fire Department will be responsible for the initial purchase of $150,000. Of this, 90% will be reimbursed by FEMA with a required 10% match from the Woodland Fire Department. The total FEMA approved budget for this project is $149,646.48, of which $136,042.25 is Federal funding and $13,604.23 is the required 10% match. The Woodland Fire Department’s share of this match shall not exceed $14,000.
The required matching funds ($14,000) were allocated as one-time Measure F funding during the FY2023/24 budget development process.
Background:
The primary goal of the Assistance to Firefighters Grants (AFG) is to enhance the safety of the public and firefighters with respect to fire-related hazards by providing direct financial assistance to eligible fire departments, nonaffiliated Emergency Medical Services organizations, and State Fire Training Academies. This funding is for critically needed resources to equip and train emergency personnel to recognized standards, enhance operations efficiencies, foster interoperability, and support community resilience.
In February 2023, the Woodland Fire Department submitted an AFG application for battery powered extrication tools and related equipment. Extrication tools are used by emergency responders to create greater access to persons trapped within vehicles by spreading or removing areas of damaged vehicle from around them. The Fire Department also requested a one-time appropriation for the matching funds, which was approved by Council as part of the FY24 budget process.
Discussion:
This grant funding will be used to replace current, aging extrication tools. The current units are over 10-years old and are powered by a gas motor and hydraulic fluid. With the age of the Department’s extrication tools, there has been a noticeable increase in maintenance costs and downtime of these units, which puts the safety of our community at risk. The grant funds will allow the Department to replace all the extrication tools currently in service with the latest in battery operated extrication tools, meeting the current NFPA standard and gaining faster deployment times due to not having to carry around the power unit and hoses.
Conclusion:
Staff recommends that the City Council adopt Resolution No. _____, authorizing the City Manager and the Fire Department to
1. Accept the 2022 Assistance to Firefighters Grant (AFG) Award for battery powered extrication tools and related equipment.
2. Appropriate $136,043 to Fund 1330 to fund the initial expenditure.

SUBJECT: Appropriation of Funds for Clean Air Funds Grant Budget
Recommendation for Action: Staff recommends that the City Council adopt Resolution No. _____, authorizing a budget appropriation of $9,900 to Fund 1365 for the Clean Air Funds Grant for fiscal year 2023/24.
Staff Contact:
Spencer Bowen, (530) 661-5808, [email protected]
Fiscal Impact:
This action will result in a Clean Air Funds Grant appropriation of $9,900 to Fund 1365. The appropriation will be offset by grant funds awarded to the City of Woodland by the Yolo-Solano Air Quality Management District (YSAQMD).
Background:
In Spring 2023, staff submitted an application to YSAQMD for the 2023 Clean Air Funds Program cycle. The application was successful, and YSAQMD awarded the City a Clean Air Funds Grant in the amount of $9,900 to support promotion and signage of a future reinvigorated Woodland Bike Loop.
Discussion:
The City of Woodland was awarded Clean Air funding for the Woodland Bike Loop Project to encourage active, sustainable transportation and recreation. The Woodland Bike Loop will create a safe, accessible, and well-marked bicycle route throughout the City of Woodland, with a particular focus on connecting community landmarks – schools, workplaces, and parks.
The City is committed to expanding safe bike infrastructure to meet sustainability goals and increase recreational opportunities. Recently, the City has invested significant effort to enhance the bike network and completed critical improvements, such as the bike and pedestrian bridge over State Route 113, Class 1 bike path on East Main Street along with improved bike lanes along East Main, Gibson Rd., Matmor Rd., and Gum Avenue. Formal street signage and promotion of a local bike loop will help Woodlanders access bicycling amenities and encourage active transit. Feedback gathered during the creation of the City of Woodland’s Active Transportation Plan (currently in progress) and the Local Road Safety Plan (recently finalized) highlighted three key needs that the Bike Loop will help address:
• Additional, easy-to-access local bike routes
• More awareness of bikeways
• Better maintained bikeways
Once finalized, the City's Active Transportation Plan (ATP) will identify recommended routes to establish the Woodland Bike Loop. Staff currently anticipates that the ATP will be completed in early 2024.
Conclusion:
Staff recommends that the City Council adopt Resolution No. _____, authorizing a budget appropriation of $9,900 to Fund 1365 for the Clean Air Funds Grant for fiscal year 2023/24.

Background
The City of Woodland seeks funding for the Woodland Bike Loop Project to encourage active, sustainable transportation and recreation. The Woodland Bike Loop would create a safe, accessible, and well-marked bicycle route throughout the City of Woodland, with a particular focus on connecting community landmarks – schools, workplaces, and parks. This project involves “Active Transportation” and “Public Education/Information” components through its three phases – planning, construction, and promotion.
The City is committed to expanding safe bike infrastructure to meet sustainability goals and increase recreational opportunities. Recently, the City invested significant time and resources into additional bike pathways, such as the bike and pedestrian bridge over State Route 113 and excellent bike lanes along Gibson and East Main Street, Woodland’s two main arterials. Formal signage and promotion of a local bike loop will help Woodlanders access bicycling amenities and encourage active transit. Feedback gathered during the creation of the City of Woodland’s Active Transportation Plan (currently in progress) and the Local Road Safety Plan (currently being finalized) highlighted three key needs that the Bike Loop will help address:
• Additional, easy-to-access local bike routes
• More awareness of bikeways
• Better maintained bikeways
The City of Woodland requests $9,900 for the Woodland Bike Loop Project. The total project is anticipated to cost $13,400, and the city will match up to $1,500 from General Plan funds earmarked for sustainability spending, and $2,000 in staff time.
Cost Breakdown

Personnel & Grant
Administration
Staff time dedicated to completing project, and administering grant.
$2,000
TOTAL: $13,400
Although an official route will be determined using data from Woodland’s Active Transportation Plan, we used an 8-mile estimate that would connect several key community landmarks: the brand-new bike and pedestrian overcrossing, recently-expanded bicycle amenities at Spring Lake parks, and the downtown corridor.
Local Benefits
Woodland’s Climate Action Plan (CAP) presents a set of community-generated strategies to guide the city, its residents, and local businesses in reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions consistent with California’s climate change goals. Part of the City’s GHG reduction target will be achieved by reducing conventional vehicle-miles travelled through increasing alternative modes of travel, including active transportation options, such as bicycling.
The Woodland Bike Loop will support the City’s CAP efforts by providing infrastructure that encourages bicycle use as an alternative transportation option and a sustainable recreational activity. The creation and promotion of a bike loop will lead to a reduction of emissions from mobile sources in two ways:
1) Users can replace a typical car trip to work, school, or parks with a bike ride on the loop 2) Users can use the loop as a sustainable recreational activity Feedback from our colleagues in Davis concerning their own bike loop confirms the above benefits as well as the ability to promote additional bike-friendly events, such as Davis’ “Loopalooza,” an annual event hosted by the City of Davis in collaboration with Bike Davis to encourage people of all ages to ride their bikes around town.
Implementation
The Woodland Bike Loop project will involve planning and marking a bicycle route throughout the City of Woodland and then encouraging residents to safely use this resource.
The project involves three phases:
1) Planning (July – December 2023): In concert with the completion of Woodland’s Active Transportation Plan, City staff will create a “Woodland Bike Loop Plan” that details the exact route, signage needs, who will provide the signage (in-house or external vendors), and the timeline for implementation. Development of a bike loop recommendation is included in our Active Transportation Plan consultant’s scope of work, and is projected to be ready before the end of 2023. Based on conversations with city engineers, city staff determined that new signage is the main infrastructure requirement for the bike loop. Signage will be placed along existing city bike paths to create a formal bike loop. City staff will leverage data and community engagement results from the in-progress Active Transportation Plan outreach, and conduct “Bike Loop” specific community engagement at existing community events to determine the best route.
2) Construction (2024 Spring and Summer construction season): Following the “Woodland Bike Loop Plan,” city staff will execute construction of the bike loop. City staff will direct in-house staff and/or external vendors to create and post permanent signs along the bike loop that will direct users and provide information about the project. 3) Promotion (Fall 2024): City staff will work with local partners to create public education and information materials to promote the Woodland Bike Loop. To educate the public, City staff will create bike loop promotional materials (maps, flyers, etc.) that will be posted in local businesses, shared directly with school children and parents, included in regular utility bill mailings, and distributed to other community hubs. Local nonprofit The Bike Campaign, an avid supporter of the Bike Loop, has already agreed to partner with City staff to include Bike Loop activities and outreach in their regular education programs in Woodland schools.
The first two phases (planning and construction) fall under the “Active Transportation” category, while the outreach phase falls under the “Public Education/Information” category.
Project Merit
City government colleagues in Davis confirm that the development of a bike loop represents a cost-effective and achievable capital project with myriad long-term benefits. Since- decommissioned “bike counters” confirmed that the 2007 installation of more formal Davis Bike Loop signage and promotion coincided with an uptick in use. Furthermore, recent qualitative and quantitative data showed that the Bike Loop was heavily used during the early days of the pandemic, providing safe and accessible recreation for all ages. Finally, as previously mentioned, the existence of a bike loop allows community partners and the city to use the route as a backbone for existing and new special events and bike-friendly outreach. Existing local cycling initiatives include The Bike Campaign’s school programs, the annual “May is Bike Month” campaign, and the California Honey Festival’s annual 30 Mile Cycle.
The City of Woodland firmly believes that delivering a bike loop in our community will result in commensurate benefits for active transportation, community health, sustainability, and more.
Project Outcomes
The project outcomes will be measured through a variety of quantitative and qualitative metrics including, but not limited to, the following:
Quantitative
• Number of schools the loop connects to
• Number of workplaces the loop connects to
• Number of public parks the loop connects to
• Length of bike loop
• Number of local students that participated in bike loop campaign(s) and special events • Quantity of users on typical summer weekend and school day (observational survey data) Qualitative
• Anecdotes from bike loop users
• Interviews with bike community, such as Bike Campaign members
Matching Funds
The City is prepared to match up to $1,500 with General Fund dollars earmarked for sustainability expenditures, and $2,000 of staff time.
Applicant History
The City of Woodland has successfully executed four timely projects with Clean Air Funds. 2021: The City of Woodland received $17,854.78 for the Woodland Regional Park Bike Parking project. Twenty bike racks were installed at the Woodland Regional Park opening up an alternative transportation option to the park. 2018: The City of Woodland received $19,000 for the Electric Vehicle Charging Infrastructure Project. Two dual Level 2 electric vehicle (EV) charging stations were installed at the Woodland Police Department, as well as infrastructure and equipment that provided capacity for additional EV charging stations.
2017: The City of Woodland received $6,000 for the Hybrid Light Duty Vehicle Replacement Project. One gasoline-powered vehicle was replaced with one hybrid vehicle in the City’s Community Development Department. 2014: Yolo County and the City of Woodland received $15,000 for the Workplace Charging Partnership Project. A Level 2 EV Supply Equipment station was installed at a central downtown location to meet staff EV charging needs.
Project Summary
This project will supplement recent City investments in bike safety and accessibility while progressing Woodland’s CAP goals. Additionally, the bike loop will positively impact the City of Woodland and surrounding region by providing additional alternative transportation and sustainable recreational options. This will increase bike ridership, reduce mobile-source GHG emissions, and demonstrate the City’s commitment to sustainable transportation and recreation.
The estimated project cost is $13,400. The City of Woodland can match up to $1,500 in General Funds earmarked for sustainability, and $2,000 in staff time, making our total funding request $9,900. We thank you for your consideration of the Woodland Bike Loop Project, and look forward to presenting our project to the Yolo Clean Air Funds Committee.

ITEM #: G.9
SUBJECT: Sprouts Farmers Market Offsite Improvement Project, Contract Amendment
Recommendation for Action: Staff recommends that the City Council adopt Resolution No. _____, to approve an amendment to the professional services agreement for construction management and inspection services with Associated Engineering Consultants, Inc. in the amount of $53,002 for a total agreement amount of $173,594 and authorize the City Manager to execute the amendment.
Staff Contact:
Miguel Chavez, Sr. Construction Project Manager – (530) 661-5952, [email protected]
Fiscal Impact:
Construction management and inspection of the Sprouts Farmers Market Offsite Improvements are funded entirely by the developer through a developer deposit account set up for the purpose of paying the City's costs to inspect the required public improvements.
There is no impact to the general fund.
Background:
On July 7, 2020, the City Council approved the Conditional Use Permit (CUP) for the Woodland Storage Development project. On October 10, 2022, a CUP Modification was approved to add the commercial property fronting on E. Main Street for development of the Sprouts Farmers Market.
The developer is required to complete certain public improvements to support the project, which the City will accept once completed. Therefore, a professional services agreement to inspect the public improvements was required to ensure construction is completed per City standards. Construction of the project began in October 2022. Upon review of the City’s short list of approved firms, Associated Engineering Consultants, Inc. (AEC) was selected as the most qualified to provide construction management and inspection services for this project.
Discussion:
The original contract for construction management and inspection was executed with AEC on September 24, 2021 for an amount not to exceed $120,592.00. Construction of the required offsite improvements has now exceeded 14 months and construction is expected to continue into next year. An amendment is required to complete construction management and inspection of the required offsites, which includes microsurfacing and striping of the road and other miscellaneous construction improvements.
The recommended action to execute the amendment to the professional services agreement will allow construction management and inspection to continue through the completion of the required public improvements.
Conclusion:
Staff recommends that the City Council adopt Resolution No. _____, to approve an amendment to
the professional services agreement for construction management and inspection services with Associated Engineering Consultants, Inc. in the amount of $53,002 for a total agreement amount of $173,594 and authorize the City Manager to execute the amendment.

Staff Contact:
Diana Ayon, Senior Associate Civil Engineer, (530) 661-5967, [email protected]
Fiscal Impact:
The approved Capital Budget includes $2,400,000 in funding for the project, consisting of $2,365,000 in Spring Lake Infrastructure – Roads funding (Fund 682) and $35,000 in road development funding (Fund 582). The agreement specifies the assignment of responsibilities between the City and Caltrans. There are no additional financial obligations to Caltrans. The Spring Lake Lighting and Landscaping fund will pay for maintenance of these improvements.
There is no impact to the General Fund.
Background:
The project consists of realigning the northbound SR-113 off-ramp at Gibson Road by removing the free right turn ramp and aligning the off-ramp movement to utilize the traffic signal. A new pedestrian crosswalk will be added on the east leg of the intersection and the existing traffic signal and lighting system will be modified for the changes at the intersection. Other project improvements include widening over the existing drainage ditch between SR 113 and Harry Lorenzo Avenue to construct a new curb & gutter, a 10-foot wide planter strip, a 10-foot wide multi-use pathway, and a 15-foot wide landscape buffer behind the new sidewalk. New pedestrian-scale streetlights along Gibson Road are also included with the design. The project will provide operational benefits for all travel modes on the northbound SR-113 Off-Ramp at Gibson Road and provide improved pedestrian connectivity along the south side of Gibson Road.
Caltrans has delegated CEQA responsibilities to the City as the Lead agency for the entire project.
Caltrans will remain the CEQA responsible agency. The project is exempt from detailed CEQA review pursuant to Section 15301 of the CEQA Guidelines, and a Notice of Exemption has been filed with the County Recorder’s office.
Discussion:
The majority of the project is located within the State of California right of way, and construction within the State’s right of way will need to be completed under an encroachment permit. Caltrans also requires a Landscape Maintenance Agreement with the State to identify the City’s maintenance responsibilities of the new improvements. Execution of the maintenance agreement is required to receive the encroachment permit and authorization to begin construction on any part of the Gibson
Road at SR-113 Interchange Modification Project.
Staff anticipates finalizing the project design and bidding on the project in winter of 2024 for a construction start date of spring of 2024. Staff is recommending that the agreement be adopted now so that the City can get an encroachment permit with Caltrans as soon as possible.
Conclusion:
Staff recommends that the Council adopt Resolution No. ____, approving the Landscape Maintenance Agreement with the State of California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) regarding interchange modifications at the SR-113 NB off-ramp at Gibson Road, CIP 19-13, and authorizing the Mayor and City Manager to sign the Agreement on behalf of the City.

TO: THE HONORABLE MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL
AGENDA: City Council Regular Meeting
DATE: December 5, 2023
ITEM #: H.12
SUBJECT: Fire Department Strategic Plan
Recommendation for Action: Staff recommends that the City Council receive a presentation on the Woodland Fire Department’s 2023-2028 Strategic Plan.
Staff Contact:
Eric Zane, Fire Chief, (530) 661-5860, [email protected]
Council Goals:
Woodland Fire Department’s 2023-2028 Strategic Plan advances key initiatives called for within the Strengthen Public Safety & Infrastructure Goal of the City Council Priority Goals & Strategic Plan; including updating the Fire Department Strategic plan and evaluating service delivery models to inform future fire station facility planning.
Background:
In May of this year, Chief Zane collaborated with the strategic planning consulting firm, Fitch and Associates, orchestrating a series of stakeholder sessions. These included an external stakeholder engagement session, followed by two internal sessions, ultimately laying the foundation for the strategic plan. Out of this concerted effort, three primary strategic objectives emerged:
• Enhancing prevention efforts before and protection during emergencies • Addressing the escalating service demands in the years ahead • Effectively communicating our services and value to the community
These objectives are thoughtfully gauged through specific outcomes, each backed by supporting goals. Staff and the consultant will provide the Council with a presentation on the process used to develop the new Strategic Plan, the key insights gained through the engagement sessions, the primary elements of the new Plan, and how the Plan will inform operations and planning for the Department over the next 5 years. Additionally, as an integral step in our strategic planning, Fitch and Associates is also conducting a thorough Geographic Information System (GIS) review of station deployment, both present and future. Upon its completion in early 2024, staff will provide Council with a comprehensive presentation of this analysis which will be used to inform the advancement of the new station planned at Bourn Drive and Gibson Road.
Conclusion:
Staff recommends that the City Council receive a presentation on the Woodland Fire Department’s 2023-2028 Strategic Plan.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Fitch & Associates, LLC was contracted by the City of Woodland Fire Department ( WFD) to provide a facilitated strategic planning process. The process included three days of onsite meetings with the Fire Chief, agency support staff, and community stakeholders between May 3 and 5 2023. On May 3rd, the agency hosted a “town hall” style meeting where a twenty-two-member group of internal and external stakeholders completed a strategic visioning process. The process included a review of the value of strategic planning; a review of the community stakeholders’ perception of the Woodland Fire Department; an analysis of the agency’s strengths, weaknesses, opportunities , and challenges (SWOC); an int roduction to the Commission on Fire Accreditation International fire agency accreditation process; plus, a review of the agency’s desired strategic planning statements for final inclusion into a strategic plan. At the conclusion of the process, the stakeholders derived three key themes:
1. How do we continue to improve on saving lives , property, and the environment during and prior to emergency events?
2. How do we meet the increasing service demands over the coming years?
3. How do we better explain our services and demonstrate our value to our community?
From these key themes, members of the agency’s command, line and administrative staff developed a list of 10 strategic objectives, 13 outcome measurements and 58 unique supporting goals to prepare the Woodland Fire Department to meet the needs and expectations of their community and to communicate performance and progress in a way that would be easily understood by the community.
Woodland Fire Department Page 4 © Fitch & Associates, LLC Strategic Plan 2023-2028 December 2023
PURPOSE OF STRATEGIC PLANNING
Strategic planning is an intentional process by which an agency or organization surveys the industry trends; evidence-based practices; the customer’s needs and wants; the current and future available resources, and the current and future capabilities of the agency to deter mine performance gaps. Once these gaps are identified, the agency can then determine organizational objectives, supporting goals and critical tasks necessary to close or eliminate the performance gaps. At the completion of the process , the agency will possess a planning document that helps better focus organization al resources towards measurable outcomes to maximize departmental efficiency and effectiveness . The process of strategic planning also provides additional value when a broad array of stakeholders come together to develop consensus on organizational performance gaps and potential solutions. The effectiveness of the team is enhanced through the power of shared vision and goals.

METHODOLOGY
Fitch & Associates, LLC was contracted by the City of Woodland Fire Department (WFD to provide a facilitated strategic planning process. The process included three days of onsite meetings with the Fire Chief, agency support staff, and community stakeholders between May 3 and 5 2023. On May 3rd the agency hosted a “town hall” style meeting where a twenty-two-member group of internal and external stakeholders completed a strategic visioning process. The process included a review of the value of strategic planning; a review of the community stakeholders’ perception of the Woodland Fire Department; an analysis of the agency’s strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and challenges (SWOC); an introduction to the Commission on Fire Accreditation International fire agency accreditation process; plus, a review of the agency’s desired strategic planning statements for final inclusion into a strategic plan. At the conclusion of the process, the stakeholders derived three key themes:
1. How do we continue to improve on s aving lives, property, and the environment during and prior to emergency events?
2. How do we meet the increasing service demands over the coming years?
3. How do we better explain our services and demonstrate our value to our community?
From these key themes, members of the agency’s command, line and administrative staff developed a list of strategic objectives, outcome measurements and unique supporting goals to prepare the Woodland Fire Department to meet the needs and expectations of their community and to communicate performance and progress in a way that would be easily understood by the community.
A draft of the proposed strategic plan was provided to the agency to review for errors of fact prior to publishing. The final report also included an internal progress tracking spreadsheet.

GOVERNANCE
Woodland was incorporated as a general law city, governed by a five -member council, with the mayor serving as presiding officer. The mayor and four council members are elected officials, serving four -year terms. The council rotates they mayor and mayor pro tem positions on an annual basis. Day to day, the city is run by a city manager, and has 324 staff positions, including 52 fire department staff.
FIRE DEPARTMENT HISTORY AND OVERVIEW
Today the Woodland Fire Department is a full -service career department providing fire suppression, emergency medical services (EMS), fire prevention, confined space rescue, high angle rescue, hazardous materials, and technical rescue services.
Woodland Hook & Ladder Company
The origins of organized fire protection in Woodland can be traced to a series of fires in the late 1860s, which focused the attention of the community on the dangers of the "fiery element".
A group of interested citizens joined together to create "some kind of Fire Department". Their efforts resulted in the formation of the Woodland Hook and Ladder Company in August of 1870. Members of this group pulled their ladder wagon to fires and used buckets to apply water to the fire. This method was frequently ineffective in stopping the spread of flames, but the ladders allowed Ladder Company members to assist in removing contents from the homes before they were destroyed.

Woodland Fire Department
Citizens soon decided that they needed a fire engine to assist their efforts so the City ordered a new steam fire engine. In May of 1875, the Woodland Fire Department was re-organized to include the Hook and Ladder Company and the newly formed Engine and Hose Company, both to serve under one Chief. In April of 1876, the new steamer arrived along with a hose cart and 500 feet of hose. With the addition of this equipment, the City had achieved a level of protection that would remain essentially unchanged until the 1920's.
The Woodland Fire Department entered the modern age of fire protection in 1924 when it took delivery of two brand new American LaFrance motorized fire engines. It was also during this time that firefighters were beginning to utilize more scientific methods in fire extinguishment, fire investigation, and fire prevention.
As Woodland grew, so did the Fire Department, in size, and in its ability to handle larger incidents.
Department Merge
In 1982, the Department merged with the Springlake Fire Department and began provid ing services to part of the Springlake Fire Protection District. The Department now protects an area in excess of 50 square miles.
With modern equipment and training, it is able to face challenges ranging from fires, medical emergencies, and vehicle accidents to hazardous material spills and confined-space rescues.

Growth
Since its inception over 150 years ago, the Woodland Fire Department has continued to grow and evolve into an organization that is responsive to the need for change. As the Department enter s the next century, we are proud of our history, and we look to the future.1
The agency is staffed with over 50 personnel, deployed from 3 fire stations. The department protects a total population of over 65,000, and over a 56 square mile area (15 square miles in City of Woodland, 41 square miles in Springlake Fire Protection District (SFPD) Service Area A).

Part of the strategic planning analysis included a review of the agency’s fiscal efficiency in relation to other comparable agencies in the region . In short, a rough estimate of efficiency can be derived using a simple cost per capita formula by taking total annual tax revenues, not counting user fees (such as development impact fees for new construction) or one-time funding opportunities (such as grants), then dividing by the residential population served. A review of somewhat similar fire agencies within the region resulted in an average cost per capita of $ 233.64. In comparison to this average, it is noteworthy that the Woodland Fire Department has a cost per capita of $231. The resulting cost model for the agency is very fiscally conservative, but may not be sustainable based on the economic factors that influence safety services, and the impacts seen by comparable fire agencies that did not address the fiscal sustainability of their services in time.

Table 1- Cost Per Capita Comparison
It is important to note that “cost per capita” is not , in and of itself , a comprehensive measurement of an agency’s performance or value to the community, but rather a broad measurement of how the agency compares to other similar agencies in terms of dollars it charges for services. In other words, cost efficiency does not necessarily equate to operational effectiveness or sustainability. In fact, due to the lower population being protected within the Springlake Fire District, the cost for some property owners in the unincorporated areas can be substantially higher than noted in the cost per capita table , however the aggregate revenue can still be substantially lower than required to provide the minimal levels of service.

STRATEGIC OBJECTIVES AND OUTCOMES
This plan was developed with the primary goal of helping the fire department communicate more effectively to the community in how best they can evaluate the performance of their fire department. This plan uses three levels of evaluation; strategic objectives, outcomes, and supporting goals to help the reader understand the relationship between the lower-level goals with the higher-level outcomes. For example, a patient may not care about how everything worked together behind the scenes to provide lifesaving service in response to their cardiac arrest, but they are keenly interested in surviving the cardiac event neurologically intact. However, the outcome (surviving the cardiac event neurologically intact) requires many different processes that must work in concert to achieve the desired outcome. Below is a brief description of each of these elements.
Strategic Objective : A statement that helps create an overall vision and set of goals that will help the organization focus and achieve a desired outcome.
Strategic Outcome: Statement that describes the result or end-state of the activity. This is usually the most important category to evaluate agency effectiveness.
Supporting Goals / Actions: An incremental step(s) needed to accomplish the higher-level/desired outcome.
Woodland Fire Department Page 15 © Fitch & Associates, LLC Strategic Plan 2023-2028 December 2023
In this plan, specific outcomes and goals may be repeated throughout the document as the same action may provide a solution for many different strategic objectives. For example, rapid turnout times can help improve the outcome for , literally, thousands of responses. Some of the efforts listed below will concentrate on fire related problems and others will concentrate on emergency medical problems. In the end, rapid turnout times can benefit both.
