ITEM #: F.6
SUBJECT: Fire Department Apparatus Maintenance and Repair Service Contracts
Recommendation for Action: Staff recommends that the City Council adopt Resolution No. _____, authorizing the City Manager to:
1. Execute the service agreement with Golden State Emergency Vehicle Service, Inc., with a total to not exceed the amount of $150,000 for the ongoing maintenance and repairs of fire apparatus.
2. Execute the service agreement with Riverview International Trucks, LLC, with a total to not exceed the amount of $100,000 for the ongoing maintenance and repairs of fire apparatus.
Staff Contact:
Eric Zane, Fire Chief- (530) 661-5861, [email protected]
Fiscal Impact:
The cost of the proposed service contracts totals $250,000 and has been included in the FY2023/24 Fire Department’s Equipment Maintenance fund (Fund 2010) budget.
Background:
Beginning in fiscal year 2023, the Fire Department assumed responsibility for all apparatus maintenance and repairs from the City’s Fleet Division.
Due to staffing issues within the City’s Fleet Division, it was unable to adequately service the Fire Apparatus for some time. The Public Works Director and Fire Chief, along with the City Manager and Finance Department, agreed that the best and most cost-effective course of action given the situation was to outsource all maintenance and repair to fire apparatus. As such, the Fire Department needs to enter into a contractual agreement with apparatus repair facilities to allow for timely and efficient repairs of apparatus.
The Fire Department primarily utilizes Golden State Emergency Vehicle Services, Inc., and Riverview International Trucks, LLC for maintenance and repair of apparatus. Pierce Manufacturing, the builder of all the Fire Department’s frontline apparatus, has few Pierce approved and certified repair facilities on the West Coast, the closest being Golden State Emergency Vehicle Services, Inc. in Sacramento.
Because of this, all Pierce frontline apparatus are sent to Golden State Emergency Vehicle Services, Inc. under the sole source option allowed under the City’s purchasing ordinance.
The Fire Department does still operate and maintain several reserve or back-up apparatus that were manufactured by other companies. Over the last year, due to extended lead time for parts and supplies, Golden State has become inundated, leading to a decrease in availability for repairs and maintenance. Because of this, the Department also utilizes Riverview International Trucks, LLC for non-Pierce manufactured apparatus or repairs that do not require a Pierce certified repair facility. The Department does utilize other vendors for some repairs and has therefore received proposals meeting the informal bid process. Riverview International Trucks, LLC has continually been found to
offer competitive rates, prompt customer service, and short turnaround times, making them a preferred vendor.
Conclusion:
Staff recommends that the City Council adopt Resolution No. _____, authorizing the City Manager to:
1. Execute the service agreement with Golden State Emergency Vehicle Service, Inc., with a total to not exceed the amount of $150,000 for the ongoing maintenance and repairs of fire apparatus.
2. Execute the service agreement with Riverview International Trucks, LLC, with a total to not exceed the amount of $100,000 for the ongoing maintenance and repairs of fire apparatus.

ITEM #: F.7
SUBJECT: Fiscal Year 2022/23 AB1600 Annual Report
Recommendation for Action: Staff recommends that the City Council adopt Resolution No. _____, accepting the AB1600 Annual Report for the Year Ended June 30, 2023.
Staff Contact:
Kim McKinney, Administrative Services Director, (530) 661-5849, [email protected]
Fiscal Impact:
There is no fiscal impact associated with the acceptance of the AB1600 Annual Report. The attached annual report details the collection of $11,680,821 in revenues and expenditures of $8,678,942 for citywide development impact fees. Also included in the report are the details for the Spring Lake Infrastructure Fees (SLIF) showing collection of revenues of $7,918,446 and expenditures of $3,542,804. SLIF revenues are generally "collected" via credits that developers have on-account with the City that were allocated from sales of bonds.
Although activity in FY2022/23 resulted in positive growth in the impact fee program, the impact fee funds continue to reflect an overall negative fund balance at June 30, 2023, of ($6,027,092).
Report in Brief:
Government Code Section 66006 requires local agencies to submit an annual report detailing the status of development impact fees. The annual report must be made available to the public and presented to the public agency (City Council) within 180 days of the close of a fiscal year.
Background:
In 1978, following the passage of Proposition 13, many cities began charging fees on new development to fund public improvements and services such as streets, park facilities, sewers and storm drains. These fees are commonly known as development impact fees. In order to ensure that these fees are spent in a timely manner and on projects for which they were collected, the State Legislature passed a bill known as AB1600 (Mitigation Fee Act). This bill applies to developer fees which were increased or imposed on or after January 1, 1989.
AB1600 enacts Government Code Sections 66000-66008 which generally contain four requirements:
1. A local jurisdiction must follow the process set forth in the bill and make certain determinations regarding the purpose and use of the fees, and establish a “nexus” or connection between a development project or class of projects and the public improvement that will be financed with the fee.
2. The fee revenue must be segregated from the general fund in order to avoid commingling of public improvement fees and the general fund.
3. If a jurisdiction has had possession of a developer fee for five or more years and has not committed the money to a project or spent the money, then it must make findings describing the continuing need for that money. In addition, an annual report must be made of fees collected, interest earned, projects on which fees were expended, and any transfers for loans from the fee account. This report is to be reviewed by the local agency assessing the fees.
4. If a local jurisdiction cannot provide the findings required under paragraph three (3), the City must refund the fees collected.
Discussion:
The City of Woodland development fees covered by AB1600, and documented in the attached report, include the following:
• General City impact fee
• Parks and Recreation impact fee
• Police impact fee
• Fire protection impact fee
• Library impact fee
• Water impact fee
• Storm Drainage impact fee
• Road impact fee
• Water impact fee
• Wastewater impact fee
Spring Lake Infrastructure Fees (SLIF) are also fees subject to AB1600 and include the following categories:
• Parks
• Storm Drainage
• Roads
• Water
• Sewer
• Fire
Staff examined each of the funds for the impact fees listed above to determine if any development fees remain unexpended five years or more after receipt and are subject to refund. Based on our analysis, no refunds are due. Many of the funds reflect negative fund balances, and therefore no unexpended fees exist; other fund balances represent unexpended fees collected for respective Council approved projects which will be financed and implemented when financially feasible or practical.
The nature of AB1600 funds is such that the timing of receipt of revenues and construction of the related capital projects rarely coincide. Ideally, revenues will be collected over time and accumulated until a development related project is needed; in years of construction, accumulated reserves will be used up. For many years, it was the City’s practice to construct projects in advance of collecting sufficient funds through borrowing from other city funds, or by issuing long-term external debt. This practice has resulted in many of the AB1600 funds operating with very large deficit balances. In response to the financial imbalances, the City adopted a Budget & Fiscal Policy in 2009 that aimed to improve these balances through the following:
• Discontinue the practice of internal borrowing between enterprise and categorical funds; funding for capital projects must be determined based on the available resources within each fund to meet its cash payment or debt service requirements and strategies to balance each fund and implement fund integrity should be continued.
• Discontinue the practice of issuing bonds or desired capital improvements based on projected development and the collection of impact fees associated with development. This source of revenue is dependent on the level of economic activity within the region and is uncertain and unstable.
While expenditures on major capital projects have been delayed, reduced, limited or altogether cancelled in the Capital Improvement Plan since 2008, the City must continue to pay ongoing annual debt service for debt that was secured by impact fee revenues. In addition, the City’s AB1600 impact fee revenues have been very volatile due to the unpredictability in residential and commercial development over the past ten years, although the last five years have seen healthy revenues resulting from increased development activity.
For FY 2022/23, total revenues from the AB1600 funds exceeded expenditures by $3,001,879. Despite the strong residential development and related revenues, and the very conservative programming of capital improvement projects that utilize development impact fees, the burden of ongoing debt service payments is very high. Two impact fee funds continue to run large deficit balances: the wastewater and park development fee funds. To date, Measures E and F have loaned the park impact fee fund $9.35 million to cover debt service related to the construction of the Community & Senior Center and Sports Park facilities. These bond payments will continue until 2026 and will likely require assistance from Measure F to meet the obligation through that time. Eventually, as development continues and the bonds are paid off, the park development fee fund will need to reimburse Measure E/F for the long-term loan. In FY22/23, the park development fund did not need to borrow any money to meet the debt service obligation, instead generating an excess that resulted in a repayment of loan money to Measure E totaling $636,398.
The other fund with a large imbalance is the wastewater development fund, which also has significant ongoing obligations related to debt service payments. Although the debt service owed by the wastewater development fund continues to be tracked within the development fund, the sewer rates approved by the Council beginning in 2013 are sufficient to cover this ongoing debt service requirement until such time as the wastewater development fund can pay its share of debt service and begin repayment to the sewer enterprise fund. With the adopted sewer rates in place, the City has refunded the outstanding debt to achieve a lower interest rate, thus reducing the overall cost of debt service. To date, this fund has accumulated a deficit owed to the wastewater enterprise fund of $13.4 million. It is unlikely that the development fund will be able to repay this loan until after the existing debt is paid off, which will occur in fiscal year 2035.
The other funds with deficit balances are the police and storm drainage development fee funds. These funds did improve slightly in FY2022/23. Unlike the other development fee related funds, the storm drain development fund does not receive revenue when new development occurs in Spring Lake (there is a specific Spring Lake Infrastructure Fee instead), which is the majority of the development occurring within the City. The overall deficit balance will improve when other, mostly non-residential, development occurs in the City. With continued new development and contained spending, progress towards bringing these funds into balance will continue.
The SLIF funds provide an accounting of the expenditures of Spring Lake specific projects. The funding of these projects has occurred primarily through advancement of cash either through issuance of bonds or developer payments. The advancement of this cash generates fee credits for developers in Spring Lake, and the "revenues" detailed in the Annual Report reflect primarily the use of those fee credits. The balances in the SLIF funds may not necessarily coincide with cash available for projects, since the cash flow is generally provided through issuance of bonds, which is tracked separately.
Conclusion:
Staff recommends that the City Council adopt Resolution No. _____, accepting the AB1600 Annual Report for the Year Ended June 30, 2023.

The majority of SLIF revenues are "paid" through use of fee credits allocated to developers either through issuance of Community Facilities District (CFD) Debt, cash advanced by developers, or from construction of infrastructure. "Fund Balances" do not necessarily reflect cash available in each of these funds, but rather an accounting of fees "collected" and projects built. As of June 30, 2023 $10,714,931 in unused fee credits remained in developer accounts with the City

Fiscal Year
Conclusion: The funds being held in this account are used to assist with debt service payments on the water treatment facility. Although the debt was secured in 2013, debt payments do not begin until the project has been fully constructed. Debt payments began in FY2017/18 and transfers from this fund have been factored into the user rates for water and will begin following full incursion of debt payments. No refunds required.
Note: The Water Development Fee was eliminated as a separate fee in April 2019. The accumulated funds and future water related development costs are reflected in the Surface Water connection fee. Fund balance was moved at the beginning of FY2019/20.
Note: Residental Water Fees for Single Family and individually metered Multi-family units are based on a 1" meter fee, the fee for Multi-family is 75% of the Single Family rate, and 50% of the rate for Small Multi-Family. Water fees for Commercial and Muti- family with a single meter are based on meter size per chart above.
Water Development fees are used to finance part of the capital improvements including surface water rights and treatment facilities needed to provide treated water to the new customer growth in the City.

** Beginning balance does not include long-term advance of pre-1991 fungible monies to the Storm Drain Enterprise Fund ($2,101,099). These monies are not subject to the requirements of AB1600 and are not available for spending.
Storm Drain development fees are used to expand/construct drainage facilities to maintain adequate drainage throughout the City by reducing the impacts of new development. The impact fee for Storm Drain is calculated by "fee area" so that each part of the City will be responsible for the fees specifically required to meet the expansion needs in that area.
No fees have been held unexpended for more than five years. Ongoing fee collections are necessary for large projects included in the fee study. No refunds required

ITEM #: F.8
SUBJECT: Award Contract to Western Extrication Specialists for Battery Powered Extrication Tools and Related
Equipment
Recommendation for Action: Staff recommends that the City Council adopt Resolution No. _____, authorizing the City Manager to execute the purchase agreement with Western Extrication Specialists, with a total to not exceed amount of $143,422.68 for the purchase of battery powered extrication tools and related equipment.
Staff Contact:
Eric Zane, Fire Chief- (530) 661-5861, [email protected]
Fiscal Impact:
This purchase is being funded by an Assistance to Firefighters Grant (AFG) award, which reimburses 90% of costs, requiring a 10% recipient match. The Woodland Fire Department will be responsible for the initial purchase of $143,422.68. Of this, 90% will be reimbursed by FEMA and the Woodland Fire Department will match 10% as required by FEMA. 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 approved as one-time funding from Measure F during the FY2023/24 budget adoption.
Background:
In February 2023, the Woodland Fire Department submitted an AFG application for battery powered extrication tools and related equipment to replace aging, gas powered 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.
In August 2023, the Woodland Fire Department was awarded a grant in the amount of $149,646.48 to purchase two sets of battery powered extrication tools and related equipment. This contract is for the purchase of the awarded equipment.
Discussion:
The Fire Department has some existing battery powered rescue equipment, which necessitated the purchase of the same brand (Holmatro Rescue Tools) for the new equipment in order to maintain operational compatibility. The Fire Department received a quote for the battery powered extrication equipment from Western Extrication Specialists Inc., the regional distributor of Holmatro Rescue Tools, for the amount of $143,422.68.
Western Extrication Specialists, Inc. is a member of the National Purchasing Partners Government (NPPGov) program. NPPGov is a national cooperative procurement organization offering publicly solicited contracts to government entities nationwide. With Western Extrication Specialists, Inc. membership in the NPPGov system, the bidding requirement is fulfilled, and the Woodland Fire Department is guaranteed to receive the lowest possible price for the extrication equipment.
Conclusion:
Staff recommends that the City Council adopt Resolution No. _____, authorizing the City Manager to execute the purchase agreement with Western Extrication Specialists, with a total to not exceed amount of $143,422.68 for the purchase of battery powered extrication tools and related equipment.

SUBJECT: Fifth Amendment to the Security Professional Service Agreement with Allied Universal Security Services for
Woodland Public Library
Recommendation for Action: Staff recommends that the City Council adopt Resolution No. _____, authorizing the City Manager to execute the fifth amendment to the Security Professional Service Agreement with Allied Universal Security Services for the Woodland Public Library.
Staff Contact:
Greta Galindo, Library Services Director, (530) 661-5980, [email protected]
Fiscal Impact:
The Security Professional Service Agreement with Allied Universal is for the amount of $66,453 for November 2023 through October 2024. The cost of executing this annual amendment for security services would increase the total multi-year contract by $66,453, bringing the total to $294,824.
Funds to provide security services for the library were anticipated and can be accommodated within the current approved budget.
Background:
The Library entered into a Professional Services Agreement for Security at the Woodland Public Library with Allied Universal Security Services on November 1, 2017. The agreement is for a period of 3 years which would automatically continue thereafter on a month-to-month basis until terminated by either party.
The agreement is to provide professional security services at the Woodland Public Library.
Discussion:
Allied Security Services provides a necessary service to the community to ensure the safety of City assets and community members who are using the Library facility and services. The services were reviewed and vetted by City staff at the Library and found to be of high quality, and the company to be both responsive and responsible.
Conclusion:
Staff recommends that the City Council adopt Resolution No. _____, authorizing the City Manager to execute the fifth amendment to the Security Professional Service Agreement with Allied Universal Security Services for the Woodland Public Library.

SUBJECT: Final Acceptance and Notice of Completion of the 2023 Water Main Replacement Project, CIP 22-04
Recommendation for Action: Staff recommends that the City Council adopt Resolution No. _____, accepting the construction contract for the 2023 Water Main Replacement Project, CIP 22-04, with RJ Gordon Construction, Inc., as complete and authorizing the City Clerk to file a Notice of Completion.
Staff Contact:
Mark Miller, Associate Engineer - (530) 661-5968; [email protected]
Fiscal Impact:
The authorized construction contract amount with RJ Gordon Construction, Inc., for the 2023 Water Main Replacement Project, CIP 22-04, (hereafter “Project”) is $2,522,593 with an approved contingency amount of $902,259. Three change orders have been executed for a total amount of $769,429.50, which results in a total construction contract of $3,292,022.50.
The Project has an authorized total budget of $3,920,000 funded through Water Enterprise ($3,820,000) and Sewer Enterprise ($100,000) Funds. All work was completed within the authorized project budget.
There is no impact on the City’s General Fund.
Background:
CIP 22-04 was scoped as the seventh project in a multi-year program where Engineering and Operations staff identify locations where the City’s utilities have the greatest occurrence of defects, breaks and leaks, and prioritize these locations for replacement. The 2023 project replaced the existing water distribution system in the vicinity of Sixth Street and Archer Drive, south of Gibson Road, as well as repaired two spot defects in the sewer collection system.
Approximately 6,950 linear feet of mainline water pipe were replaced by the Project, thereby eliminating a portion of the antiquated system of 2-inch diameter cast iron water mains which are buried just beyond the city sidewalks. These 2-inch mains are notorious for problems such as breaks and leaks as they are located shallow enough to be subject to diurnal fluctuations in temperature and can be disturbed by homeowner’s yard improvements. The Project constructed a new 8-inch and 12- inch diameter main in the street and connected adjacent residences with new polyethylene services that deliver more reliable water pressure for 159 residences. The Project also constructed new 4- inch diameter water services for two apartment complexes on Sixth Street. Concurrent with this water work, the Project repaired two defects in the sewer mains buried 13-feet below Sixth Street.
Discussion:
Three change orders for CIP 22-04 have been executed to date in the amount of $769,429.50. The first change order compensated the contractor for scope changes that extended the water system improvements onto a portion of Archer Drive that had been removed from the project during design. The second change order was for scope changes to the water main depths as it was
discovered that elevations of existing sewer laterals in the vicinity were in conflict with the proposed water main elevations. The contractor had to install new water mains deeper than shown on the as- bid plans and thus was compensated for the increased level of effort. The last change order accounts for the final contract quantities that were measured at the end of the Project to be below or above the originally bid amounts. The final change order amount of $769,429.50 is $132,890.50 less than the authorized construction contract contingency. A breakdown of project expenditures is enumerated in the table below:
Construction Contract $2,522,593
Project Design $139,320
Change Orders $769,430
Construction Inspection $209,016
Total Construction Cost $3,640,359
Project Management Staff Time $53,785
Total Project Cost $3,694,144
Total Project Budget $3,920,000
Conclusion:
Staff recommends that the City Council adopt Resolution No. _____, accepting the construction contract for the 2023 Water Main Replacement Project, CIP 22-04, with RJ Gordon Construction, Inc., as complete and authorizing the City Clerk to file a Notice of Completion.

SUBJECT: County Road 25A (Parkland Ave. to Miekle Ave.) Improvement Project, CIP 24-05, Approve Plans and
Specifications and Authorize Bid Advertisement and
Contract Amendment
Recommendation for Action: Staff recommends that the City Council adopt Resolution No. _____, to 1.) approve the project plans & specifications and authorize bid advertisement for the County Road 25A (Parkland Ave to Miekle Ave) Project, CIP 24-05; and 2.) appropriate $50,000 in Spring Lake Infrastructure – Roads funding (Fund 682) for the Project; and 3.) approve a consultant services amendment for design with Cunningham Engineering in the amount of $31,000 for a total agreement amount of $141,100 and authorize the City Manager to execute the amendment.
Staff Contact:
Miguel Chavez, Sr. Construction Project Manager, (530) 661-5952, [email protected]
Fiscal Impact:
At the May 16, 2023, City Council meeting, an update regarding the Spring Lake Infrastructure Fee (SLIF) fund balances was presented to the Council and concluded that there are sufficient funds available to pay for certain projects that have been desired by Spring Lake residents. The most notable project is the CR 25A segment that completes the existing gap between Parkland Avenue and Meikle Avenue. The total project cost was estimated at $3,644,000 and includes signalization of the intersection of CR-25A & CR-102. The project is currently funded in the Capital Budget with $135,000 in SLIF Roads (fund 682) funding. The current action includes the appropriation of $50,000 in SLIF Roads funding to cover a design contract amendment and project management costs. The Construction Contract Award will be presented to Council for approval at a future date, at which time staff will make a request to allocate additional SLIF funds to fund construction of the project.
There is no impact on the General Fund.
Background:
This project includes the construction of CR25A, from Parkland Avenue to Miekle Avenue. This project is included in the Spring Lake CIP and is needed to provide adequate traffic circulation. CR25A will be a 2-lane road and the project includes storm drain utilities, street lighting and other improvements necessary for the complete roadway. This project also includes the construction of signal improvements at the CR 102/CR 25A intersection.
When the Spring Lake Capital Improvement Plan (SL CIP) was originally approved in 2004, the full length of CR 25A was included in the project funding. When the SL CIP was updated in 2009, the segment from Promenade Drive to Parkland Avenue was removed from the plan in order to reduce developer impact fees during the great recession. When the SL CIP was updated in 2017, the segment from Promenade Drive to Meikle Avenue was added to the plan along with the green belt improvements on the north side of the road for the entire width of Spring Lake. With the project authorization granted at the May 16, 2023, council meeting, the entire length of CR 25A will be completed between SR 113 and CR 102. Completion of the gap in CR-25A will increase traffic at the
CR 102/CR 25A intersection. Therefore, the ultimate signal improvements have been included in the project plans and specifications.
Discussion:
Plans and specs are now complete, and staff is requesting City Council approval of the construction documents and authorization to advertise the project for bids. Staff anticipates that the construction contract award will be presented to Council for approval in the February/March timeframe.
Construction is anticipated to take approximately 6 months, with project completion estimated by December 2024, weather permitting.
Staff is also requesting that Council approve an amendment to the consultant service agreement with Cunningham Engineering in the amount of $31,000 for a total contract of $141,100. The amendment is necessary to cover certain design elements not originally included in the original scope of the design contract, including some grading and drainage design features and additional coordination with the entry to the Woodland Regional Park Preserve at the eastern leg of the County Road 25A/County Road 102 intersection.
Conclusion:
Staff recommends that the City Council adopt Resolution No. _____, to 1.) approve the project plans & specifications and authorize bid advertisement for the County Road 25A (Parkland Ave to Miekle Ave) Project, CIP 24-05; and 2.) appropriate $50,000 in Spring Lake Infrastructure – Roads funding (Fund 682) for the Project; and 3.) approve a consultant services amendment for design with Cunningham Engineering in the amount of $31,000 for a total agreement amount of $141,100 and authorize the City Manager to execute the amendment.

SUBJECT: Approval of Contract for Retired Annuitant
Recommendation for Action: Staff recommends that the City Council adopt Resolution No. _____, for Exception to the CalPERS 180-Day Wait Period for Retired Annuitant – Principal Planner, Cynthia Norris.
Staff Contact:
Sheila McShane, Human Resources Manager, 530 661 5807, [email protected]
Fiscal Impact:
The costs associated with hiring a retired annuitant are accounted for in the FY2023/24 budget, and no additional funds will be allocated.
Discussion:
After 18 years of service with the City, Principal Planner, Cynthia Norris, is retiring effective December 30, 2023. Norris has worked in several positions within the Community Development Department (CDD) and has served as the lead on several critical projects. The City is in the process of hiring a Junior Planner in order to accommodate the vacancy. However, Norris has been the main City employee on the Comprehensive Zoning Code Update, Housing Element, and cannabis regulations. These projects are nearing completion, and it is critical that Norris provides guidance on the implementation and transition of these updated regulations/ordinances. Additionally, the City anticipates a future special project in which Norris can assist the City in the implementation and training of staff. Norris's breadth of knowledge regarding the City’s planning regulations is beneficial in helping new staff manage the process. The City is requesting Norris to return to work as a retired annuitant so that the City can seamlessly implement/update the regulations and ordinances.
The California Public Employee Retirement System (CalPERS) has specific rules that public agencies must follow when allowing employees who have retired to return to work. Typically, once an employee retires from an agency, they are required to wait 180 days before they can return to work. However, there are rules (Gov. Code 7522.56 & 21224) that allow a contracting public agency to request a waiver of its 180-day waiting period for retired annuitants to perform work of limited duration, such as elimination of a backlog, special project work, or to perform work exceeding regular staff work.
This report seeks Council action on a resolution, as required by CalPERS, to allow the City to employ Cynthia Norris as a retired annuitant for this specific purpose. Upon completion of the special projects which include transitions, implementation of projects and regulations, the agreement with Cynthia Norris will automatically terminate upon completion of the projects or January 16, 2026, whichever is sooner.
Conclusion:
Staff recommends that the City Council adopt Resolution No. _____, for Exception to the CalPERS 180-Day Wait Period for Retired Annuitant – Principal Planner Cynthia Norris.

ITEM #: G.13
SUBJECT: Comprehensive Zoning Code Update and
Recommendations Review
Recommendation for Action: Staff recommends that the City Council receive a presentation on the Comprehensive Zoning Code Regarding Recommended Updates to the Public Review Draft and provide preliminary direction regarding recommended updates.
Staff Contact:
Cindy Norris, Principal Planner (530) 661-5911, [email protected]; and [email protected]; Erika Bumgardner, Deputy Community Development Director, (530) 661-5886, [email protected]
Fiscal Impact:
The Zoning Code and CEQA Update Project (CIP#07-07) was established in 2007 with $100,000 to fund Zoning Code and CEQA updates. Since 2007, limited code updates and preparation of the Interim Zoning Update have utilized project funds (CIP#07-07). In 2017, the State Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) initiated the Planning Grants Program intended for the preparation, adoption and implementation of plans to streamline housing approvals and accelerate housing production. The City of Woodland received two Planning Grants from HCD, SB2 funds in 2019, for $310,000, and LEAP grant funds in 2020, for $300,000. Additionally, the City received $85,000 in REAP grant funds from SACOG. Total funds allocated to the CZC project are $655,624.
On September 3, 2019, the City entered into a professional services contract with Lisa Wise Consulting, Inc. for $358,610 to prepare the CZC update. On October 15, 2020, a Second Amendment to the contract was approved to add $36,160 to the original contract for an overall contract amount of $394,770. A fourth amendment reallocated grant funds in the amount of $130,830 to the contract with Lisa Wise Consulting, Inc., resulting in an overall contract amount of $525,600 to complete the CZC project. A fifth amendment was approved to extend the contract term and reallocate funds.
Report in Brief:
The public review draft of the Comprehensive Zoning Code was officially released at the September 19, 2023, City Council meeting. (Attachment 1: 9/19/2023 Staff Report). The city held a series of public meetings with community members and stakeholders to present the draft Code, respond to questions, and collect important feedback to be considered in the preparation of the final CZC.
The purpose of the December 19 City Council meeting is to review the public comments received to date regarding the draft CZC and to review proposed recommended updates with the City Council. Resulting direction from the City Council will assist staff in preparing the final draft zoning code. Upon completion of the final draft, staff will schedule adoption hearings with the Planning Commission and City Council.
The goal of the CZC update is to facilitate new desired development through the provision of clear and understandable standards, guidelines, and procedures. The CZC includes an updated development review process to assist residents, development interests, staff and decision makers to
allow qualified development proposals expedited review, thereby helping to reduce the front-end design/development costs particularly for new housing projects.
Grant funding for the Code update from the State Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) was provided with the intended purpose of accelerating housing production and streamlining approval of housing development, and to prepare a code that utilizes best practices to facilitate livability, sustainability, increased density, and multi-modal access. A well-designed city that incorporates appropriate development standards into its regulations will directly improve the quality of life and appearance of the community, attract investment, and increase community pride.

Discussion:
The following are key issues or discussion topics that were raised during the initial public review phase of the draft CZC. The discussion will identify the topic, provide background analysis, and the proposed recommendation from staff. Staff is requesting direction from the City Council regarding the proposed amendments to allow preparation of the final CZC. Upon receiving direction from the City Council, staff will prepare a final draft CZC and schedule adoption hearings.
Please note that not all recommendations or feedback provided throughout the course of public outreach is summarized below. Attachment 3 includes additional comments received and preliminary responses. All comments provided by the public have been taken into consideration and many will be reflected in the final draft plan but were considered minor in nature and therefore not highlighted for discussion in this report.
Zone Change from Residential Duplex (R-2) to Low Medium (R-LM) Issue: Concern that the proposed change of the R-2 Duplex zone to R-LM Residential Low Medium will result in loss of neighborhood character.
Discussion: The CZC proposes to add back the Low Medium Zone to further facilitate missing middle housing (i.e. more affordable housing types that were common pre-WWII, such as duplexes, rowhouses, and courtyard apartments but are now less common). The 1996 and 2002 General Plans had a land use called Medium Low Density Residential (MLDR) with a density between 5 - 12 dwelling units per acre (du/ac). These areas are shown as a duplex zone (R2) on the existing zoning map. The 2035 General Plan EIR studied all of these areas as Medium density (8.1-19.9 du/ac), but they were ultimately approved as Low density (1-8 du/ac) in 2017. The CZC proposes to add back in the R-LM zone and General Plan land use at a density of 5-15 dwelling units per acre, a middle range between low and medium densities.
Zoning standards for the proposed R-LM zone, including height and setbacks, lot coverage and lot size, are the same as provided for the Residential Low zone, which will ensure overall neighborhood character is retained. Objective Design Standards have been provided to help ensure appropriate, attractive and sensitively designed infill and additions. Upon closer examination of the existing development fabric, a mix of unit types is found within both the existing R-2 and NP zones, including duplexes, triplexes and fourplexes, cottage courts and small apartments, especially closer to downtown. Further, recent state legislation, including SB9 and ADU laws allow for up to 4 units on a single-family property.
The existing R-2 zoning currently allows a duplex unit and ADUs on a lot. When considering a theoretical maximum density of 15 du/ac, a typical 6,000 square foot lot would allow a maximum of 2 primary units, and would include the potential for additional ADUs. A site that is a half-acre in size would allow up to 7 du/ac. The site would still be required to meet all height, setback, lot coverage, and design standards for the primary units. Staff believes that results will be generally consistent with the existing pattern of development with some additional occasional infill most likely on existing vacant, larger lots.
Objective design standards have been included which provide clear guidance on topics such as building placement, façade articulation, building materials, roof design, entry location and on-site access and circulation. In the case of a larger lot where a town home or cottage court style development may be possible, exterior entrances shall face a street and incorporate either a porch or recessed entry, similar to existing single family development in this area. The City Council may also wish to consider limiting the residential product types to not more than 4 units in any one building (such as a fourplex, or in line rowhouse design), which would prohibit larger multi-unit projects.
The proposed return to a zone and density that is consistent with the prior land use designation is in keeping with the goals and intent of the 2035 General Plan and objectives for the CZC.
The proposal is consistent with two key objectives of the CZC:
• Allow increased intensity of development and compact form while retaining the character and scale of the community’s neighborhoods, and
• Facilitate increased housing opportunities and variety. Encourage Multi-family, Missing Middle, and Lifestyle Housing.
The proposal is consistent with the following General Plan Policies:
• Policy 2.A.1: Urban Limit Line. […] The City shall continually reevaluate residential land use densities, housing policies, and zoning to determine the potential for increased residential densities for both infill sites and undeveloped land within the Urban Limit Line. The City shall continually review existing non-residential zoning to determine the potential for conversion to higher density residential uses within the permanent Urban Limit Line. • Policy 2.A.5: Complete and Well Designed Neighborhoods. Promote the development of complete neighborhoods with a physical layout and land use mix that allows for a diversity of incomes; puts residents in proximity to services and amenities; promotes walking, biking, and transit use; fosters community pride; enhances neighborhood identity; ensures public safety; and meets the needs of all ages and abilities.
• Policy 2.A.6: Infill Development. Encourage infill, redevelopment of and development on underutilized sites, adaptive reuse, and the restoration of historic buildings in existing urbanized areas to enhance community character, promote pedestrian- and bicycle friendly neighborhoods, increase housing diversity, ensure integrity of historic districts, optimize city investment in infrastructure, support increased transit use, and enhance economic vitality • Policy 2.C.1. Compact Form. Promote compact development patterns, mixed land use, and higher-development intensities that conserve land resources, reduce vehicle trips, improve air quality, and facilitate walking, bicycling, and transit use. Achieving the benefits of compact development as supported in this General Plan may result in potential trade-offs related to traffic, noise, open space, and privacy. Sensitive design and appropriate performance standards may assist in mitigating these concerns. Where growth and increased density is allowed pursuant to this General Plan, these issues are acknowledged and accepted.
• Policy 2.E.2: Responsiveness to Context. Encourage high-quality new development that enhances and blends with the established fabric of the natural, social and built environment, while allowing for innovative architectural styles.
• Policy 2.G.2: Sensitive New Development. Require new construction, additions, renovations, and infill to be physically compatible with neighborhood context, historic development patterns, and building form and scale.
Recommendation: Continued inclusion of the R-LM land use and zone in place of the R-2 zone, with additional direction to staff to continue to evaluate standards to ensure sensitively designed infill that allows higher intensity of development while respecting existing building form and scale.
Allowing triplex and fourplex buildings in the Residential Low (RL) and Neighborhood Preservation Zones (NP)
Issue: Consider distinguishing triplex and fourplex buildings as separate from multi-unit dwellings and specifically allowing triplex and fourplex buildings in the RL and NP zones, provided they do not exceed the zone's maximum density (i.e. a fourplex would require a minimum half acre lot).
Discussion: As stated in the General Plan Low Density Residential land use district, consideration of fourplex buildings may be allowed subject to conditional review. Current low density residential zones (R-L and NP) allow only single family and duplex product types, and nothing over 2 units on a single lot. A fourplex is a multifamily property made up of four individual units connected under one roof and on one lot in this context. A fourplex is the largest property type that an owner can invest in
using a residential mortgage. A fourplex can offer benefit if the owner lives on site and uses the three other units as rental income. In addition, a fourplex can offer renters a less intensive experience than a commercial multifamily property. It allows the integration of potential rental units within more traditional single-family neighborhoods.
In order to facilitate the allowance of these small multi-unit buildings into typical single family neighborhoods, consideration must be provided regarding the form and massing of the building as well as parking considerations.
These small multi-unit buildings were traditionally found in more historic neighborhoods where a variety of building types was often the norm. There are examples of small multi-unit buildings in the residential districts adjacent to the Downtown. In addition, as a result of SB9 and ADU laws, up to four units may be provided on single family properties. Under SB9, the state requires the city to allow by-right, single family properties to subdivide into two lots (minimum 1,200sf) and build up to four housing units in total (two per lot), plus additional Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs). Therefore, if it is determined that triplexes and fourplexes should not be permitted in the Residential Low and Neighborhood Preservation Zones, owners will still have the opportunity to add addition units by way of ADUs or utilizing SB9 regulations.
The proposal is consistent with the following objectives of the CZC:
• Allow increased intensity of development and compact form while retaining the character and scale of the community’s neighborhoods, and
• Facilitate increased housing opportunities and variety. Encourage Multi-family, Missing Middle, and Lifestyle Housing.
The proposal is consistent with the General Plan language for Low-Density Residential land use, which states:
• “With conditional review, allow for the consideration of up to four (4) units on a lot in appropriate locations, based on density, exemplary design, and site compatibility assessment (in no case to exceed 8 dwelling units per acre)”.
Recommendation: Either that fourplex buildings be allowed in the RL and NP zones subject to a staff level discretionary review with direction that staff provide additional objective design standards to address the proposed building appearance, site design, and parking. Or, continue to limit multi-unit dwellings (fourplexes and triplexes) to higher density residential zones (R-Low Medium, R-Medium and R-High), but encourage and continue to look for ways to streamline ADU permitting and SB9 allowances.
Recreational Vehicle Storage and Parking on Residential Properties.
Issue: The Public Review Draft CZC included a new section 17.64.100(C)(2) regarding the parking of recreational vehicles, boats and trailers in residential zones. Public comments were received expressing concern that the new language is too restrictive.
The current zoning code language states that:
“One mobile home, camper, motor home, or trailer may be stored off the street and, on a property, as long as it is parked on an impervious surface.” Section 9.04.030.10 of the Municipal Code provides requirements regarding the parking of vehicles on an impervious surface.
The proposed updates to the CZC regarding the parking of RVs, boats, and trailers are intended to provide standards to minimize nuisance considerations when such vehicles are parked in a manner that creates unsightly conditions, blocks public access, results in illegal encroachment and damage to utilities, curbs, and vegetation.
The current proposed language states the following:
• On a single-family site, recreational vehicles shall be parked on a non-permeable surface, in a fenced area, or in the rear yard or side yard, screened by a wall or solid fence not less than six feet in height.
• Recreational vehicles shall not project beyond the front limits of the home. (This would no longer allow these vehicles or trailers to be parked on the front driveway.)
The staff have reviewed considerations, should the restrictions as proposed be considered too onerous, modified language that may be incorporated includes the following:
• One mobile home, camper, motor home, or trailer (RV refers to all such vehicles) may be stored off the street and, on a residential property in the RL, NP, or RLM zone, as long as it is parked on an impervious surface. (Similar language to the existing code) • RV parking may only be accessed by an approved driveway approach. Access to RV parking shall not require driving a vehicle over a curb, parkway landscaping, or utility infrastructure and shall not require the removal of any required protected trees as outlined in the City Tree Ordinance, including street trees, unless mitigation is approved by the City. • Second driveways shall only be allowed in accordance with Section 17.68.090(F). (To minimize driveway cuts for safety purposes for bikes and pedestrians) • RVs shall not be parked in a manner that is highly visible or unsightly, such as parallel to a front home.
• RVs must be parked a minimum of 5-feet back of a sidewalk in order to ensure adequate sight visibility. Additional setbacks may be required to ensure consistency with the Sight Visibility requirements (Section 17.64.110).
• RVs shall be subject to the same side and rear setback standards as required for accessory structures, Section 17.64.020. D-1. (RVs in some cases can be taller than allowed accessory structures)
• RVs shall be operational. Flat tires, broken windows, tarp covering not made specifically for the vehicle shall not be permitted.
The proposal is consistent with the following CZC objective:
• Address citywide and special case situations that occur repeatedly.
The proposal is consistent with the following General Plan Policies:
• Policy 2.F.1: Development Regulations. Promote design excellence by ensuring that development regulations clearly express both desired and intended outcomes, in addition to those that may be prohibited or undesired.
• Policy 2.G.5: Maintenance. Foster community pride and promote neighborhood enhancement and conservation through code enforcement as well as incentivized improvement programs to facilitate ongoing repair and property improvement.
Recommendation: That additional criterion be added to the CZC regarding the parking of recreational vehicles, boats, and trailers in residential zones based on direction provided to staff regarding the proposed CZC standards relating to RV parking.
Include Business Park and Corridor Mixed Use-Gateway Zones Issue: Incorporate Zone Categories for land uses that are in the General Plan, but not on incorporated lands within city boundaries.
Discussion: There are land use categories in the General Plan, Business Park and Corridor Mixed Use-Gateway, that occur on lands that have not yet been annexed into the city. In order to provide
future development expectations in advance of annexation, staff are recommending incorporating pre-annexation zones into the CZC. The pre-zones will be somewhat generalized in nature and provide baseline development standards, possible allowed uses, and objective design standards. Doing so will assist city review and facilitate potential development interests in understanding how lands that are outside the city are expected to develop. At the time of future annexation review, final detailed zone requirements and any potential amendments can be considered.
These two zones are not currently included in the public review draft. It is recommended that they be added to the final review draft.
The proposal is consistent with the following objectives of the CZC:
• Implement the 2035 General Plan and 2021-2029 Housing Element • Ensure that the code is clear, concise, intuitive, and easy to use by the community, businesses, and development partners.
• Provide clear standards and requirements, but incorporate flexibility in order to adapt to new or unusual circumstances.
• Add to the economic vitality of Woodland and allow appropriate adaptive reuse and reinvestment of properties.
• Encourage mixed-use nodes, districts and corridors. Allow the integration of commercial uses within residential districts as well as residential into commercial districts.
The proposal is consistent with General Plan Policies:
• Policy 2.D.2: Jobs/Housing Relationship. Promote and support the development of a balance of residential, commercial, and industrial development within the city. Encourage a variety of job and housing types to provide a range of employment and housing opportunities for all city residents.
Maintain a jobs to housing ratio citywide of at least 1:1 to optimize the supply and demand for both, reduce commute trips and overall vehicle miles traveled (VMT), and make communities less dependent on single-occupancy vehicle trips.
• Policy 2.D.3: Technology Sector. Grow the technology sector in Woodland by leveraging the research strength at UC Davis. Establish business parks in the Southern Gateway at CR 25 and SR 113 and along CR 102. Encourage smaller companies and start-ups to locate in incubator spaces Downtown and in areas with the Light Industrial Overlay designation.
• Policy 2.E.1: Land Use Designations. Enact the land use designations as shown in Figure 2-5 and detailed in Section 2.3 for the purposes of this General Plan.
• Policy 2.F.1: Development Regulations. Promote design excellence by ensuring that development regulations clearly express both desired and intended outcomes, in addition to those that may be prohibited or undesired.
• Policy 2.I.9: CR 102. Develop CR 102 south of East Main Street as an attractive corridor with a mix of commercial, office, and residential uses that support employment growth targets. Incorporate new job generating uses into the corridor, including medical services, offices, and business park development.
• Policy 2.K.2: Business Parks. Promote the development of master-planned business parks that bolster Woodland’s established agricultural and emerging technology industries and promote the city’s prominence as a major center of economic activity in Yolo County.
Recommendation: That the City Council provide direction to staff to draft and provide zone
standards in the CZC for the Business Park and Corridor Mixed Use-Gateway pre-annexation zones.
Commercial Cannabis in the Downtown
Issue: Consideration regarding retail cannabis (dispensaries), and the impact of proposed Downtown Zone changes.
Discussion: The Current zoning code allows for the possible consideration of retail cannabis in District A of the Downtown. District A parallels Main Street only. Available cannabis sites were significantly limited by the requirement that they shall not be located within 600-feet of a youth- oriented use. However, with the proposed amendment to the Downtown zoning, the DX-1 zone will replace District A and will cover a larger area.
It is recommended, at this time, that the possibility for retail cannabis use be removed from the Downtown. Should there be a desire to consider retail cannabis in the Downtown in the future, the matter can be considered by the City Council at that time.
Recommendation: That retail cannabis be removed as a possible use in the Downtown.
Summary of Recommendations for Requested Direction:
• Recommendation: Continued inclusion of the R-LM land use and zone in place of the R-2 zone, with additional direction to staff to continue to evaluate standards to ensure sensitively designed infill that allows higher intensity of development while respecting existing building form and scale.
• Recommendation: Either that fourplex buildings be allowed in the RL and NP zones subject to a staff level discretionary review with direction that staff provide additional objective design standards to address the proposed building appearance, site design, and parking. Or, continue to limit multi- unit dwellings (fourplexes and triplexes) to higher density residential zones (R-Low Medium, R- Medium and R-High), but encourage and continue to look for ways to streamline ADU permitting and SB9 allowances.
• Recommendation: That additional criterion be added to the CZC regarding the parking of recreational vehicles, boats, and trailers in residential zones based on direction provided to staff
regarding the proposed CZC standards relating to RV parking.
• Recommendation: That the City Council provide direction to staff to draft and provide zone standards in the CZC for the Business Park and Corridor Mixed Use-Gateway pre-annexation zones.
• Recommendation: That retail cannabis be removed as a possible use in the Downtown.
The Zoning Code is considered a living document and represents the goals and policies of the General Plan as translated into regulatory requirements. It is anticipated that as the city begins to actively utilize the code, there may be fine-tuning required moving forward.
Conclusion:
Staff recommends that the City Council receive a presentation on the Comprehensive Zoning Code Regarding Recommended Updates to the Public Review Draft and provide preliminary direction regarding recommended updates.

Fiscal Impact:
The Zoning Code and CEQA Update Project (CIP#07-07) was established in 2007 with $100,000 to fund Zoning Code and CEQA updates. Since 2007, limited code updates and preparation of the Interim Zoning Update have utilized project funds (CIP#07-07). In 2017, the State Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) initiated the Planning Grants Program intended for the preparation, adoption and implementation of plans to streamline housing approvals and accelerate housing production. The City of Woodland received two Planning Grants from HCD, SB2 funds in 2019, for $310,000, and LEAP grant funds in 2020, for $300,000. Additionally, the City received $85,000 in REAP grant funds from SACOG. Total funds allocated to the CZC project are $655,624.
On September 3, 2019, the City entered into a professional services contract with Lisa Wise Consulting, Inc. for $358,610 to prepare the CZC update. On October 15, 2020, a second amendment to the contract was approved to add $36,160 to the original contract for an overall contract amount of $394,770. A fourth amendment reallocated grant funds in the amount of $130,830 to the contract with Lisa Wise Consulting, Inc., resulting in an overall contract amount of $525,600 to complete the CZC project.
Report in Brief:
The September 19, 2023 City Council meeting will officially launch the public review process for the CZC Project with the availability of the Public Review Draft document now online at the following link https://cityofwoodland.org/1165/Comprehensive-Zoning-Update, and in hard copy at City Hall, Library and Community and Senior Center. Over the coming months, city staff will hold a series of public meetings with community members and stakeholders to formally present the draft Code, respond to questions, and collect important feedback that will be considered in the preparation of the final CZC. At the September 19, 2023 meeting it is not anticipated that the City Council will provide formal comments on the draft document, but rather receive a project update and provide input concerning key areas of interest or concern. This staff report outlines the community engagement process and anticipated timeline, provides a high-level overview of the CZC including a review of the guiding principals for development of the Code update, the code framework, and a summary of key changes.
The goal of the CZC update is to facilitate new desired development through the provision of clear and understandable standards, guidelines, and procedures. An updated development review process will assist staff and decision makers to allow qualified development with expedited review, thereby helping to reduce the front-end design/development costs particularly for new housing projects.
Grant funding for the Code update from HCD was provided with the intended purpose of accelerating
housing production and streamlining approval of housing development, as well as to prepare a code that utilizes best practices to facilitate livability, sustainability, increased density, and multi-modal access. A well-designed city that incorporates appropriate development standards into its regulations will directly improve the quality of life and appearance of the community, attract investment, and increase community pride.
Background:
Once the draft is released, staff is recommending an ambitious schedule for public review with the goal of completing the draft document by the end of 2023. The goal will be to begin working and utilizing the new code at the start of the year. This will also allow the city to submit for final grant funding reimbursements.

Discussion:
Relationship Between General Plan and Zoning Code
The General Plan outlines a vision for Woodland’s long term physical and economic development and community enhancement. It also provides goals and policies that will allow this vision to be accomplished. The General Plan, inclusive of the Housing Element, provides the basis for establishing priorities for implementing plans and programs, such as the Zoning Ordinance. It sets broad general land use locations and densities and intensity for development. Residential development capacity is usually provided as density of development, expressed as dwelling units per acre (du/ac), whereas non-residential development capacity is provided as intensity of development, expressed as floor area ratio (FAR).
The Zoning Ordinance is one of the most important tools for implementing the General Plan. While the General Plan provides broad land use classifications, zoning is more specific and may allow multiple zones per single general plan land use category as long as the intensity and density of development are consistent with the General Plan. Zoning translates general policies into more specific regulations and standards.
For the period immediately following adoption of the General Plan, the city adopted a stand-alone Interim Zoning Ordinance (IZO) to address areas of land use inconsistency between the newly adopted General Plan and Zoning for the commercial, industrial and mixed-use zones. The IZO incorporates new standards and practices that have guided much of the new development that has occurred since 2018. The IZO has generally been considered successful and the CZC has built upon the best elements and lessons learned through use of the IZO.
Legislative Updates and Requirements
A critical purpose for the update is to ensure that the CZC addresses the numerous legislative updates and requirements. Since 2017, the state has passed a significant amount of legislation relating to housing with a primary emphasis on streamlining the production of new housing and removing barriers. The grants from HCD that have assisted in funding the CZC update require the new code to utilize objective design standards and minimize the review process for housing projects.
Objective standards have also been provided for commercial, mixed use and industrial developments as well.
In addition to housing, legislative updates have affected other areas of the code. As example, cities are limited in the regulation of content for signs. Below are summarized some of the most critical updates affecting the Code update:
• SB330 (Housing Crisis Act of 2019) and SB 8 (2021), which prohibits the City from adopting new non-objective standards for residential or residential mixed-use projects; from reducing allowed housing capacity through regulatory or administrative barriers; and from denying residential or residential mixed-use projects based on subjective standards. • AB 2011 (Affordable Housing and High Road Jobs Act of 2022), which allows housing development in areas currently zoned for parking, retail, or office buildings and exempts some projects from local approval processes and CEQA review. • SB 6 (Middle Class Housing Act of 2022), which allows residential uses on commercially zoned property without requiring rezoning if they meet or exceed the default density under Housing Element law for the jurisdiction.
• AB 2162 (2018), which requires that supportive housing be permitted by-right in zones where multifamily and mixed-use development is permitted.
• AB 2345, (2020), which amends the Density Bonus law to expand incentives for projects with affordable and senior housing components, including reduced maximum parking requirements. • Reed v. Town of Gilbert (2015), which affirmed that signs regulations must be content-neutral.
The City has already prepared zoning updates where legislative changes require limited timeframes for compliance, such as accessory dwelling units, SB9 (allowing additional units in single family zones), and emergency shelters.
Guiding Principles and Objectives for the Comprehensive Code Update:
The following are the key guiding principles and objectives for the CZC update:
1. Implement the 2035 General Plan and the 2021-2029 Housing Element.
2. Ensure compliance with state and federal requirements.
3. Build upon the Interim Zoning Ordinance (IZO). Utilize lessons learned to strengthen, clarify, and expand the Comprehensive code.
4. Ensure that the code is clear, concise, intuitive, and easy to use by the community, businesses, and development partners.
5. Provide clear decision protocols and a streamlined review process.
6. Allow increased intensity of development and compact form while retaining the character and scale of the community’s neighborhoods.
7. Facilitate increased housing opportunities and variety. Encourage Multi-family, Missing Middle, and Lifestyle Housing
8. Address sustainability concerns including the heat island effect. Facilitate appropriate and increased tree planting and preservation.
9. Respect the existing community fabric and groundwork while reflecting current best practices in evaluation of uses, activities, and development patterns.
10. Incorporate historic and downtown design requirements, thereby incorporating the Downtown Specific Plan into the code.
11. Address citywide and special case situations that occur repeatedly.
12. Provide clear standards and requirements, but incorporate flexibility in order to adapt to new or unusual circumstances.
13. Add to the economic vitality of Woodland and allow appropriate adaptive reuse and reinvestment of properties.
14. Encourage mixed-use nodes, districts and corridors. Allow the integration of commercial uses within residential districts as well as residential into commercial districts.
Generally, the public, residents, and prospective developers value three central qualities in any zoning code: 1) certainty in the requirements and structure of the review process, 2) built-in flexibility to adjust development standards to the needs of individual projects, and 3) opportunities to request relief from requirements that constitute a substantial burden.
Comprehensive Code Features
The following summarizes key features incorporated into the draft Code:
1. Provides graphic examples and generalized tables to present information whenever possible.
2. Provides “objective design standards” for all districts.
3. Provides performance standards to address sensitive adjacency issues such as odors, dust, and contamination.
4. Updates parking standards and reduces overly burdensome requirements.
5. Continues to accommodate and incentivize food and agricultural industries where appropriate.
6. Updates and clarifies the non-conforming use standards.
7. Updates the allowed land use table to incentivize desired uses.
8. Updates standards that apply to all properties, such as fencing, outdoor storage, landscaping, parking, and lighting.
9. Provides design standards and criteria that apply to specific uses such as alcohol, auto services, bed and breakfast, bee keeping, emergency shelters, mobile vendors, and temporary uses, etc.
10. Identifies height, setbacks, coverage, and other development standards that apply to each district.
11. Revises sign standards to comply with legislative requirements to be content neutral.
12. Provides an Administration section that clearly describes and outlines all permit and entitlement review requirements.
13. Clarifies public notice procedures.
14. Clarifies roles and responsibilities for all recommending and approving bodies.
15. Provides Rules of Measurement.
16. Provides clear understandable procedures for exceptions from standards and when allowed.
17. Provides a comprehensive list of definitions of terms and uses.
Zoning and General Plan Map
In addition to text amendments, there are suggested amendments to the Zoning Map. Some of the map changes identified will require amendment to the General Plan (GP) land use map as well. However, in several instances, the existing zoning provides a higher zone category than the General Plan and will remain at the higher zone category:
• Add back in areas of Low Medium Density (R-LM) and Medium Density (R-M) residential zones that were in place in the 2002 General Plan and as studied in the 2035 General Plan EIR. (GP and Zone change)
• Add some areas of Low Medium (R-LM) to Medium Residential (RM) where the area would support such change, such as on major corridors or where existing development exceeds lower density.
• Replace Community Commercial (CC) sites along corridors with the Corridor Mixed Use (CMU)
designation, thereby allowing a greater mix of uses including residential development. (GP and Zone change)
• Change Community Commercial (CC) to Community Commercial Mixed Use (CCMU) and allow residential development in the zone. (GP and Zone change) • Revise the Light Industrial (IF) zone to the south side of the I-5 freeway and add General Industrial (IG) north of the I5 freeway. (GP and Zone change) • Identify a separate Corridor Mixed Use zone for the Armfield neighborhood (CMU-A). (Zone change)
• Update the Downtown districts by consolidating the existing five districts with subcategories into four clearly defined zones (DX-1 – 4). (Zone change)
• Modify the (Regional Commercial (RC) zone at the north end of East Street to Regional Commercial Flex (RCF) (Zone change)
A copy of the Draft Comprehensive Zoning Map is attached to the report as well as a second map which highlights areas where zone changes are proposed. Additional detailed information regarding the zone changes will be provided on the CZC web page and discussed in future workshops. Below are images from the CZC Zoning Map to illustrate the proposed zones. A third map is attached which illustrates areas on the General Plan map that will require amendment.
Code Framework
The draft Comprehensive Zoning code was developed over the past three plus years based on requirements of State law, review of best practices, and consideration of objectives for the code. The CZC has five divisions or sections as described below:
Format and Organization
Division 1: General Provisions
Division 2: Districts and Regulations
Division 3: Citywide Standards
Division 4: Administration and Procedures
Division 5: Definitions of Terms and Uses
Division 1 – General Provisions:
This Division sets the underlying purpose and effect of the Zoning Code and outlines the authority for the Code and relationship to the General Plan. This Division includes a section that discusses rules for interpretation and rules of measurement. It also references and establishes the zoning map, other relevant maps, and districts.
Division 2 – Districts and Regulations
Division 2 identifies the purpose and applicability of each zone. The district provides the use regulations, development standards and supplemental regulations. This is where the objective standards for building and site design are provided.
Division 3 – Citywide Standards
Division 3 provides citywide standards in two sections, those that apply generally and also those that only apply to specific uses or specific activities.
• Chapter 17.64: General Site Standards. This chapter provides standards that apply generally to
all properties and include things like accessory structures, fences, landscaping, parking, lighting, screening, signs, performance standards, non-conforming provisions, and flood management provisions.
• Chapter 17.84: Standards for Specific Uses and Activities. This chapter applies to specific uses regardless of zone. Examples include accessory dwelling units, alcoholic beverage sales, automobile sales and service use, bed and breakfast, day care centers, mobile home parks/RV/Trailer Parks and manufactured homes, mobile vendors, emergency shelters, and temporary uses.
Division 4 – Administration and Procedures
Division 4 identifies all planning authorities and reviews authorization. It provides all of the common procedures that are required as part of any type of review for purposes of zoning. The division outlines all of the planning permits and approvals that are possible and establishes a new three- tiered Development Review process to replace the existing ZAP Tier 2 and Design Review processes. There are also procedures outlined for reviewing actions involving general plan or zoning amendments, establishment of specific plans or precise plans, as well as enforcement.
Division 5 – Definitions of Terms and Uses.
Division 5 provides a comprehensive set of definitions of the terms used in the code and also provides a definition for all permitted, conditionally permitted and in some cases non-permitted uses.
Code Highlights and Key Changes
The CZC has been re-written with each and every standard and requirement evaluated in view of best practices and through a frame of the City’s development goals as identified in the General Plan, past experience, experience in implementing the Interim Zoning Ordinance, and desired economic development path. Development standards and design standards were assessed, taking into consideration limited resources, such as land and water, while also taking into account environmental and climate considerations, as well as housing and jobs, in order to allow for a resilient and prepared community to face 2050 and beyond. Below is a summary of some of the key highlights and changes in the CZC:
• Increase housing opportunities.
o Ensure consistency with the Housing Element regarding identified sites and densities. o Add back in the Low Medium Zone to further facilitate missing middle housing. The 1996 and 2002 General Plans had a land use called Medium Low Density Residential (MLDR) with a density between Low and Medium zones. These areas are shown as a duplex zone (R2) on the existing zoning map. The General Plan EIR studied all of these areas as Medium density, but they were approved as Low density in 2017.
o Ensure consistency between the General Plan and zoning. On some parcels the zoning shows Multi-family (RM) where the General Plan shows Low density (LD). Due to SB 330, sites may not be downzoned from how they were shown as of January 1, 2018. o Transition the Community Commercial zone to a mixed-use zone (CCMU) which allows multi- family residential.
o Expand CMU zones along the West Main Street corridor. • Incorporate historical standards and the updated Downtown zones as a new section in the code. • Retained the Neighborhood Preservation (NP) zone.
• Add small lot subdivision development standards to provide flexibility for infill residential development.
• Provide allowance for limited retail uses in specific residential locations and situations • Update building and site design standards for all zones • Add a new chapter for screening and outdoor storage standards • Update parking, lighting and landscaping sections.
• Increase development intensity standards for the Community Commercial Mixed Use (CCMU), Regional Commercial (RC), Regional Commercial Flex (RCF), Industrial Flex (IF) and Industrial General (IG) zones to allow appropriate intensity of development. Encourages more efficient use of limited land resources.
• Carry forward the standards of the General Plan Light Industrial Flex (LIF) Overlay into new base zone standards.
Community Outreach
All meetings will be recorded and posted on the Comprehensive Zoning Code web page to allow members of the public the ability to view all presentations and discussions. The city will offer a range of meeting types, from pre-recorded to virtual to in person. In the past, the city has found that virtual meetings tend to be very well attended and provide an alternative option for the public to gain access to meetings. In-person meetings will be held at the City of Woodland Council Chambers, located at 300 First Street. More information regarding meeting times will be provided. Outreach will be conducted using notices in the newspaper, direct mailings, email to identified interested parties, and various forms of social media, including press releases, notices to list-serve groups, and posting on the city’s web page.
Proposed Public Meeting Schedule:
Meetings may be subject to change, so please continue to check the CZC web site for up-to-date information.

After which all comments will be evaluated and suggested changes provided in an errata format to be presented to the City Council for final consideration before preparing a final draft for adoption. However, public comment may continue to be provided up until final adoption.
The city invites all interested residents to attend the scheduled community events and express opinions. Community members may also provide comments regarding the Comprehensive Zoning Code update to the following email:
[email protected]
The Zoning Code is considered a living document and represents the goals and policies of the General Plan as translated into regulatory requirements. It is anticipated that as the city begins to actively utilize the code, there may be fine tuning required moving forward.
Conclusion:
Staff recommends that the City Council receive a presentation on the Public Review Draft of the Comprehensive Zoning Code and an outline of the public review process.

Comprehensive Code
Update
Goal No. 6 (from ppt):
"Allow increased intensity
of development and
compact form while
retaining the character

To me this language is code for exercising "white privilege" and minimizing minority home ownership.
Notes on Zoning Update for Oct. 5, 2023 from Jim
Smith 10/5/2023
This objective statement is not specifically included in the Zoning Code, but provided in the overview presentation. It is intended as a summary statement combing a variety of adopted General Plan policies and goals that speak to increasing density and promoting infill development within the city while still being sensitive to existing neighborhood scale and contexts. There are appropriate design and development regulations that allow increased density and infill development within existing neighborhoods while still being sensitive to existing, adjacent properties and homes. It is not intended as an exclusionary statement.
These goals were articulated by City staff
and do not appear in the draft Code

Goal No. 8 (from ppt):
"Address sustainability
concerns including the
heat island effect.
Facilitate appropriate and
increased tree planting
and preservation."
To me no amount of tree planting and preservation will diminish the rapidity of climate change. Tree planting is to be encouraged, yes, but there also needs to be emphasis on use of recycled materials, home- based energy generation and recycling of water as well as low-water landscape design.

This objective statement is not specifically included in the Zoning Code, but provided in the overview presentation.

I have no specific problem with this but what is a true definition of “existing community fabric”? That’s vague and also again, relates to No. 6, in that it promotes white homeownership and minimizes minority home ownership.
Notes on Zoning Update for Oct. 5, 2023 from Jim
Smith 10/5/2023
Please see prior response to the first statement. This objective statement is not specifically included in the Zoning Code, but provided in the overview presentation. Part of the existing community fabric is our diverse community, in all respects, age, ethnicity, as well as architecture and neighborhood characteristics which vary throughout the city. “Current best practices” acknowledge that we can provide more opportunities for diverse housing types, densities, and neighborhoods, uses, etc. while still being sensitive to established neighbor characteristics.

districts as well as
residential into
commercial districts."
I have no problem with the overall intent of this statement. However, I believe it needs to include some aspect governing safety for residential homeowners. Putting a “commercial use” microchip manufacturer within a residential zone might look good, but that manufacturer is going to generate increased traffic, water use and necessitate more power, which means more power lines, etc.
Notes on Zoning Update for Oct. 5, 2023 from Jim
Smith 10/5/2023
Yes, staff is in agreement. There are a number of operational and performance standards provided in the Code to ensure the safety of and to minimize impacts to neighboring properties. See Division III, Section
17.84.200.
These goals were articulated by City staff
and do not appear in the draft Code
Citywide Standards
Goal No. 8 (from ppt):
"Updates the standards
that apply to all
properties, such as
fencing, outdoor storage,
landscaping, parking, and
lighting."
I have no specific objections except for the use of the word “fencing,” which can mean many things. Californians, for example, prefer redwood fencing to maintain backyard privacy. However, the city should also encourage cyclone fencing in smaller neighborhoods to promote community.
Notes on Zoning Update for Oct. 5, 2023 from Jim
Smith 10/5/2023
Front yard fencing guidelines encourage lower and more transparent fence styles to promote community. Chain link and cyclone fencing is not prefered in residential areas.
These goals were articulated by City staff
and do not appear in the draft Code
Use-Specific Design
Standards
Gaol No. 9 (from ppt):
"Provides design
standards and criteria
that apply to specific uses
such as alcohol, auto
services, bed and
breakfast, bee keeping,
emergency shelters,
mobile vendors, and
temporary uses, etc. 10.
Identifies height,
setbacks, coverage, and
other development
standards that apply to
each district."
I have no problem with most of this, but why the necessity to include “bee keeping?” I would speculate there are more people keeping chickens in their backyards than bees or rabbits? Shouldn’t they be included as well? Perhaps something like, “beekeeping, raising chickens and other small-scale, backyard activities for fun, personal use and modest revenue.” How detailed do we want to be? All this being said, I am reading Page 156 and am curious why the limitations on backyard poultry, rabbits, etc. I get the “crowing” part, but am still confused why bees are better than small animals.

Smith 10/18/2023
This code statement is not specifically included in the Zoning Code, but provided in the overview presentation as a means of showing the variety of “special uses” considered in the Code. Domestic Animal Keeping is regulated by the City’s Municipal Code but outside of the Zoning Code specifically and is primarily concerned with health or nuisance problems associated with keeping large animals in a residential area or too many small animals at one property in the city. A household can keep a certain number of chickens, pigeons, rabbits, etc. at their home per the code. See Title 9 of the Municipal Code.
These goals were articulated by City staff

The phrase “to face 2050 and beyond” is vague. I would recommend modifying it to read: “…community through the year 2050 and beyond.” Notes on Zoning Update for Oct. 5, 2023 from Jim

"Reflects the existing

I have no issue with this but shouldn't there be some way of recognizing that someone else may want to build a 'wave park'?" Designating a specific site seems to imply that there is no further room for a competitive facility.
Notes on Zoning Update for Oct. 18, 2023 from Jim
Smith 10/18/2023
The zoning for Velocity Island is recommended to change to Regional Commercial which better reflects the on-the-ground use of the property. A new wave park or other large scale outdoor recreational facility can be proposed in any Regional Commercial zone…and would be welcomed! This is not Code text, no change needed

Zoning Map n/a
South of Maxwell Avenue to E. Gibson Road and south of East Gibson Road to the Heritage Parkway extension are shown as “white” or seemingly outside the city limits. Don’t they fall under the Urban Limit Line? Shouldn’t this area be identified as being off limits for building? What I’m concerned about is if these areas will at some point in the future be included as part of the Southeast Area Development Area, which would allow single- family residences in a flood zone.
Notes on Zoning Update for Oct. 5, 2023 from Jim
Smith 10/5/2023
This area is located within the ULL, but currently outside of the city limits.
The area will need to be annexed into the city prior to development. The General Plan designates this area as Corridor Mixed Use and Business Park.
Various flood modeling and elevation requirements would be required of any new development in a flood plain.

Smith 10/5/2023 Once the WRTP is annexed (in early 2024), the zoning established by the Specific Plan will be added to the Citywide Zoning Map. Outside of City limit and scope of Code Residential Lot Size n/a
I have no specific comments other than the lot sizes seem too large for today’s generation. I don’t want to be like one of my fellow commissioners and rewrite lot sizes, but I do think that that large front- or backyards are unnecessary.
Notes on Zoning Update for Oct. 18, 2023 from Jim
Smith 10/18/2023 Development and
design standards
The proposed densities for each residential zone, with the exception of R- LM described below, are consistent with the General Plan land use designations established in the 2035 General Plan Update. The Zoning Code is a tool to implement General Plan policy and is therefore required to be consistent.
Due to recent housing legislation, the proposed R-LM zoned areas (currently zoned Duplex Residential or “R2”) cannot be downzoned, meaning densities cannot decrease. In this case the General Plan land use designations will need to be amended to return to Medium Density Residential in these areas, as it once was.
Proposed R-L zoning (1-8 dwelling units per acre) covers existing, established neighborhoods. Not greenfield areas, which are either governed by existing Specific Plans (ie. Woodland Research and Technology Park) or will be governed by future Master or Specific Plans where higher densities will likely be desired and can be adequately planned for in terms of neighborhood design, infrastructure, etc.
Higher density (20+ du/ac) are permitted throughout the downtown DX zones and all along Main Street and East Street. Medium Density (8.1 to
19.9 du/ac) zoning is proposed is several areas proximate to these corridors. There are many opportunities for increased residential density development in the city in the Downtown, along commercial corridors and within transition areas between major corridors and existing established neighborhoods without completely doing away with established lower density neighborhoods where infrastructure to support increased traffic and intensity of development may not be available.
Regarding setbacks, here again, the 20-foot front yard setback generally reflects existing neighborhood development patterns. If the Commission would like to collectively propose reduced setbacks whereby someone could construct a addition to their house in the front yard for instance, staff is open to that discussion. Side setbacks require minimal 5-foot separation between the home and the property line. ADU’s and smaller accessory structures are permitted with lesser setbacks. Staff have added an allowance for a front porch to have a reduced setback (closer to the street).
Residential Zones/Zoning
Regulations n/a
I think there needs to be more flexibility in the number of lots per acre to provide for a greater mix of housing sizes within a given area. My issue, I think, is that you’re allowing 8 units an acre under low-density residential and this increases housing costs. My personal preference (given the success of the David Snow developments) is that “Low- Density Residential” should be between 20 and 25 units an acre (although this may be too much). Given that you also have Residential Low-Medium and Residential Medium zones, perhaps forgo the entire concept of Low-Density Residential. However, given there is so little low- density single-family residential remaining within the city the zoning area I don’t know how you could add any additional “higher density” residential.

Missing Middle Housing n/a
I do, however, feel the County Fair Mall site should be designated as a special area of some type to encourage Missing Middle Housing. I note that it is designated Mixed Use under the new zoning map and I think that’s a good thing, but I think the city should work on some incentive program that favors housing over commercial.

Residential Setbacks n/a
Regarding setbacks: I think given the changing nature of families, which are smaller, the requirement that a front-yard and side-yard setbacks are excessive. It appears that in general you want each home to have 20 feet of front-yard space, probably for trees, etc. But I think that’s too much for a single-family home in a low-density residential area. I don’t see too many people using their front yards these days, other than for gardens and California landscaping, which minimizes the use of trees and instead focuses on pollinators and minimizes the use of grass.

"A Building Permit is
required for decks over
30 inches in height"
Why "over 30 inches" in height? Notes on Zoning Update for Oct. 18, 2023 from Jim Smith 10/18/2023
At a certain height (over 30 inches), they need inspection to prevent possible injury. The Building Code requires a permit and handrails for decks over 30”
This is typical and consistent with Building
Code
General Site Standards "Appurtenant"
One definition of “appurtenant” is accessory, but you’ve already used accessory in the sentence. Suggest word “adjacent” or put Appurtenant in the definitions section.
Notes on Zoning Update for Oct. 18, 2023 from Jim
Smith 10/18/2023 Include a definiton for appurtenant.
General Site Standards 17.64.030.J.B - "Minimum
maintenance" What does "minimum maintenance" mean? Notes on Zoning Update for Oct. 18, 2023 from Jim Smith 10/18/2023
This is in reference to wall materials that they shall be constructed of brick, concrete, or decorative masonry material. "The wall surface shall be graffiti resistant and require minimum maintenance". The intent is to attempt to explain that wall materials used shall be durable, graffiti resistant and not require a great deal of on-going maintenance. (This can be restated if needed for explanatory purposes)
General Site Standards "Water efficient plants"
Do the “water efficient plants,” indeed, does water use in the Zoning document comply with the new state standards that call for a 12% reduction of water use in Woodland by 2035, from 232 gallons per day (used in 2020)? I presume so, but perhaps there should be a statement to this effect?
Notes on Zoning Update for Oct. 18, 2023 from Jim
Smith 10/18/2023 Text will refer back to state requirements. Section 17.64.040.H identifies what is meant by "water efficient plants."
General Site Standards "California landscaping"
Trees. I’m not arguing against trees, but it seems to me the protocols you are setting up are not consistent with “California landscaping,” which could be more low-lying, low-water-use shrubs and pollinating plants other than trees. Perhaps a statement to the effect, that property owners who want to landscape without trees, should (or will) make a contribution for tree planting at a public facility as you have elsewhere in this section? It also seems you’re adding to the overall cost of a home when you are requiring “tree minimums.”
Notes on Zoning Update for Oct. 18, 2023 from Jim
Smith 10/18/2023
The Landscape Chapter has been enhanced in order to provide additional shade planting requirements to address heat island concerns consistent with the Climate Action Plan. City procedures already provide for the possibility of in-lieu payment for trees in some circumstances.
General Site Standards
“Pedestrian Scale
Lighting. Pedestrian-
scaled lighting, less than
15-feet in height, shall be
used to illuminate areas
used for pedestrian
circulation. Bollards may
be used as well.”
To my knowledge Bollards don’t emit light. I don’t have objection to their use, but I’m wondering why they are showing up under the “lighting” section.”
Notes on Zoning Update for Oct. 18, 2023 from Jim
Smith 10/18/2023 Some bollards do emit light and are often used along pathways. Some bollards are designed to illuminate.
General Site Standards
“Inoperable Vehicles. In
addition to the standards
of Woodland Municipal
Code Section 9.04.030,
Acts Constituting a
Nuisance, the following
standards apply to
inoperable vehicles. 1.
Residential Districts.
Inoperable vehicles in
residential districts shall
not be visible from the
public right-of-way.
Inoperable vehicles may
only be stored on non-
permeable surfaces in
residential garages, or
rear or side yards.
Inoperable vehicles shall
be limited to one per lot."
Can a few words be added after “residential garages” to the effect of “or permanent, enclosed structure”? My point being that not all residences need have garages in the future.
Notes on Zoning Update for Oct. 18, 2023 from Jim
Smith 10/18/2023
If there is no garage at the front of the yard in which to store the vehicle in an enclosed area, the inoperable vehicle will have to be stored on a side or rear yard or in another location.
OK as is
General Site Standards Community Gardens
Community Gardens. I think this is a wonderful idea. But you have a problem in that you don’t specify where community gardens can occur.
And based on your residential zoning standards you don’t allow for adequate space to provide for a community garden. Low-density residential, as well as medium- and higher- density residential sites are all precluded because you provide for setbacks and other property geared toward housing and landscaping. Unless you designate space in a new development for a community garden, I don’t see how you’ll have any incentive to have a garden constructed. I don’t know if this is possible, but perhaps a section of a community park can be given over to a community garden. I’m specifically thinking of the new southeast area, where there are some great parks, but they all seem very large.
Notes on Zoning Update for Oct. 18, 2023 from Jim
Smith 10/18/2023
Community gardens may be considered in many zones with a Zoning Administrator permit, as identified in the Use Table. The criteria provided in the Citywide standards, Division III, is intended to provide additional clarifying standards, including operational requirements, for uses listed in the use table. There are no set setbacks identified for the garden use itself, other than for structures that may be proposed to be constructed.
In the R-L, N-P, and R-LM districts, a
community garden is allowed as a primary
use (not accessory).
In the R-M and R-H, it is allowed as
accessory only.
In all cases, Sec. 17.84.130 applies and
addresses the commenter's concerns

General Site Standards Mobile Vendors during
Special Events
Regarding “mobile vendors.” No problems with the limitations but there’s no provision for the use of “mobile vendors” during “special events.” I’m specifically thinking of the Woodland Farmer’s Market, as well as the First Sunday of the month closure of First Street between Bush and Main Street, both of which feature more than one mobile vendor. I don’t see any provision to allow those; other than the “special event” permit. So, perhaps this is enough.
Notes on Zoning Update for Oct. 18, 2023 from Jim
Smith 10/18/2023
Municipal Code Chapter 10.20 governs Mobile Vendors and Peddlers. The standards provided in the zoning code respond to the requirement in WMC section 10.20.060A.2 – that as part of the Mobile Vendor Permit that the vehicle storage and location comply with applicable zoning regulations and other codes.
Section 10.20.120 provides an exemption for a mobile vendor permit if it is parked in conjunction with a permitted temporary outdoor use permit as allowed as a Temporary Outdoor Use (private property) or with a Special Events permit (public property).
We will ensure that the Temporary Use section refence is updated in Section 10.20.120
This is not a Zoning issue, since these
vendors operate in the right-of-way.

Michael McLaughlin, email 10/13/2023
Staff have not been directed by City Council to analyze staff time spent on the variety of planning activities handled by the Division. The new code inlcudes an extensive definitions section which will make a significant difference in the evaluation of proposed uses. Additionally, objective standards provide clearly written requirements. Interpretations may still be required in any situation in which individuals present creative ideas that may not have been previously considered.
Segregatory Land Use,

Implications n/a
While there is a map showing the proposed implementation of the general plan land use designations, is there a map that shows how these general plan land use designations would map onto the Springlake Specific Plan? Because having an entire map that is separate makes it harder to see our "true" land uses across the entire City -- as we add specific plans its actually more difficult to visually understand residential and commercial densities.

Precise Plan vs. Specific Plan Definitions Definition of Precise Plan vs Specific Plan Chris Holt (PC) 9/21/2023 A specific plan has a definition based on state requirements. There are required analysis and freatures that must be included. They often expensive and require a years long lead time to approval. A Specific Plan often amends General Plan land uses and develops new zoning standards.
A Precise Plan is more of a master plan and would not necessarily include financing and other details inlcuded in a SP, but does allow evaluating zoning on a master plan level and setting future development criteria.
There may be associated GP and Zonign changes or not.

You are probably going to lease the commercial part to someone who doesn't live in the residential part, otherwise why would you enter into a lease. The wording in G is ok for selling, but not for renting. The owner should be able to rent the commercial space to someone who is not a resident of the residential space.

Urban Reserve Areas and

Facilities A.1.d. "Urban
reserve areas or
undesignated planning
areas"
Existing wording makes reference to "urban reserve areas or undesignated planning areas" but these areas are not identified on the "Identified Areas of Change on the Draft Comprehensive Zoning Map". I would argue that if these areas are outside the City Limits, they should not appear in the zoning code wording. If they are in the City Limits, they should appear on the map.
----Can I please get an answer to these 2 questions: Where are these areas? Are they within the Urban Limit Line but outside the City Limits? Bruce Barton, email 10/18/2023 No change - the term Urban Reserve was a land use provided in the prior general plan to describe lands that were outside city boundary.

Pg 210 - 17.84.360 Telecommunication Facilities A.2.a.i.
Existing wording "No more than one satellite dish exceeding 36 inches in diameter per parcel." is not suitable for duplexes. At least 2 dishes should be allowed. I have seen many residences with multiple satellite services, so one could argue that each unit may require 2 dishes. It seems to me that 4 satellite dishes per parcel would be a better upper limit. Maybe the wording should mention duplexes explicitly.
Bruce Barton, email 10/18/2023 No change
Note, no one uses satelitte dishes over 36
inches on a residence any more - they are
smaller than that for residential use. Any
residence or duplex can have a dish for TV
or internet that is 36" or less in diameter.

Code (CZC), Divisions 1 and 2, released September
2023
11/15/2023
This is a broader policy discussion. As with all comments, staff will review with the City Council to obtain direction regarding proposed amendments, community priorities, and staff time allocation. Staff has been conducting the CZC update at the direction of the CC in order to bring the Zoning Code into conformance with the 2035 General Plan. The Council has not provided direction nor additional funding allocation to embark on a larger General Plan amendment process.
The first part does allow some discretion on the part of the Director.
However, the wholesale change suggested in the comments could pose a problem in situations where there are large parcels in which there may be significantly different zone categories identified in both the GP and Zoning (such as in SLC).

Determining Lot Coverage Div. 1, pg. 10:
Determining Lot Coverage
Remove the provisions of lot coverage (and private open space) entirely.
(AM): Determining Lot Coverage. Lot coverage is the ratio of the total footprint area of all structures on a lot to the net lot area, typically expressed as a percentage. The footprints of all principal and accessory structures, including garages, carports, covered patios, and roofed porches, shall be summed in order to calculate lot coverage.

Code (CZC), Divisions 1 and 2, released September
2023
11/15/2023
This is a broader policy discussion.
There may be pros and cons to lot coverage and open space requirements.
There tends to be a reduction in both for higher intensity zones and urban environments. Benefits of lot coverage and open space include the provision of light and air, area for landscaping including trees, percolation and drainage, parking arrangements, and utility installation on lots.
A competing goal to allowing intensification is to allow adequate ability for percolation, and needed landscaping to address heat concerns and a pleasing aesthetic environment.
It has been noted that in some lower income areas there can fewer trees and shade, which creates a hotter, harsher environment and requires greater utility usage.

Family Living
For whom is a zone “stabilized” and “protected” when low density residential and older housing stock is frozen in time?
What is the fundamental difference between the R-LM zone and other zones, and how is this “family living” different from other types of uses? Comments by Commissioner Mike McLaughlin on
the City of Woodland's draft Comprehensive Zoning
Code (CZC), Divisions 1 and 2, released September
2023
11/15/2023
The R-LM zone allows for higher density residential development as compared to R-L and N-P zones. The zone is proposed in an area that had a higher allowed density in the prior general plan and as a result generally covers where there already exists both single and multifamily (multiunit) housing…The benefit of transitioning back to the RLM is that it will provide the continued opportunity to allow a variety of housing types that are not specifically limited to SF and duplex units.

R-M and R-H Area Locations Why are all of the R-M and R-H areas in high traffic, existing multifamily neighborhoods?
Comments by Commissioner Mike McLaughlin on
the City of Woodland's draft Comprehensive Zoning
Code (CZC), Divisions 1 and 2, released September
2023
11/15/2023
There is one R-H area and it is not in a high traffic area although it is located on a collector road. There are very few RM zones located on arterial roads (Main St, Gibson, East Street, West Street, CR 98, and CR 102.) Those areas are not necessarily high traffic either. In addition, RH and RM zones have tended to be located in areas that can best take advantage of transit, which generally operates on arterials and collectors, and are located closer to parks/schools and shopping (walking distance). The CMU zones, which allow densities from 20-40 du/ac, are generally located along arterials and collectors.
Per GP
Add additional
walking/biking/transit
statements to Purpose
Why do none of these zones reference general plan objectives such as walking and transit, except in the R-H area, of which is the smallest zoned area?
Comments by Commissioner Mike McLaughlin on
the City of Woodland's draft Comprehensive Zoning
Code (CZC), Divisions 1 and 2, released September
2023
11/15/2023
Note: There are high density zones in the various specific plans as well.
The idea of encouraging walking, biking, and transit options are overarching goals in the General Plan that apply city wide as reflected in the Purpose statement for the Zoning Code in Section 17.04.030. Perhaps additional purpose statements can be added that apply to the zoning code overall.
The Zoning code implements the GP, and
does not need to repeat its goals.

Development Stds for
Residential Zones
What is the average lot size in R1 / R-L / N-P neighborhoods? Lot coverage and minimum lot sizes (and lot coverage, and floor area ratio) force property owners to lose value on their lots and are arbitrary tools created to exclude housing types that actual serve lower income peoples and people of different cultural backgrounds.
(AM): Max. Lot Coverage to 100% for all zones.
Comments by Commissioner Mike McLaughlin on
the City of Woodland's draft Comprehensive Zoning
Code (CZC), Divisions 1 and 2, released September
2023
11/15/2023
This is a broader policy discussion.
Without GIS analysis the existing average lot size per zone is not known. In the older parts of town there is a great variety of lot sizes as these areas have developed over many years. In newer developments, lot sizes tend to be more uniform and meet minimum to average standards. Per the zoning code a minimim interior lot size is 5,000 sf and a minimum corner lot is 6,000 sf in the R-1 and NP zones. Consitent standards are proposed in the CZC.
It is unclear how lot coverage and FAR cause a loss of value on a property and result in exclusion. There is value added to properties through the provision of open space and landscaping as well.
The code update is proposing a variety of tools, including the ability to reduce lot sizes, through the small lot subdivision or PD process, to allow a variety of housing types. Minimum lot coverages account for open space, parking arrangements, landscaping, drainage and utility installation on lots.
A competing goal to intensification is to allow adequate ability for percolation, and needed landscaping to address heat concerns.

Setbacks and Value of Land
Setbacks are additional tools to choke value from land. They might be desirable to some, but not all. Currently ADU and SB 9 law requires units to be built at 4’ rear/side setbacks – we should permit additional dwellings over crab grass to sprout up.

The Development standards tables refer the reader to the Accessory Dwelling Unit and Accessory Structure requirements chapters. Accessory structure setbacks are based upon the height of the proposed structure.
The higher the roof/structure the larger the required setback.
SB 9 / General Plan LD in the General Plan
Our General Plan is already stagnant and must reflect the post COVID reality. We must permit up to four units on a lot by right, as the State ADU Laws and SB 9 laws already require in “Single Family” residential neighborhoods.

SB 9 permitted up to 4 units on a lot under specifically described conditions.
Consideration can be given to allowing 4-plex units in RL and NP districts.
The General Plan provided the ability to consider this.
Evaluation of the General Plan as an adequate policy document is a broader policy question.
SB 9 applies. No policy direction to expand
SB 9 beyond state mandate.

Why limit short term
rentals?
Table 17.24.020-1, Use
Regulations - Residential
Zones
Why is the City limiting all short-term rentals? By doing so it does not actually limit these establishments (there are plenty of rentals listed on Airbnb) but rather forces these lodgings to the black market. They should be permitted though potentially taxed (see NYC) Comments by Commissioner Mike McLaughlin on the City of Woodland's draft Comprehensive Zoning
Code (CZC), Divisions 1 and 2, released September
2023
11/15/2023
One concern is that short term rentals take up valuable housing opportunities. That is why the State does not allow ADUs to be used for this purpose. Short term rentals can also have negative impacts related to noise, parking, and trash, which is why they are only being considered is some locations such as in the Downtown or along corridors.
Noted, the city is adding the ability to incorporate retail/office/service uses within residential districts in limited situations (Corners on collector roads) initally in the CZC, Residential Limited Retail. This will give the opportunity to evaluate the demand and functionality of such uses.
Agree with City's response
Allowing Residential Limite
Retail everywhere.
How does limiting commercial uses comport with the general plan’s concept to have more amenities available in walkable distances to residents?
The Residential Limited Retail allowed everywhere is a good place to start.

TO: THE HONORABLE MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL
AGENDA: City Council Regular Meeting
DATE: December 19, 2023
ITEM #: G.14
SUBJECT: Measure F Annual Report for the Fiscal Year Ending June 30, 2023
Recommendation for Action: Staff recommends that the City Council approve the Measure F Annual Report for Fiscal Year ending June 30, 2023, and direct staff to publish the required excerpts from the report in the Daily Democrat and on the City's website.
Staff Contact:
Kim McKinney, Administrative Services Director, (530) 661-5849, [email protected]
Fiscal Impact:
This is an informational report, and therefore does not result in any fiscal impact. However, the report provides an accounting of Measure F (1/2 cent sales tax) receipts and expenses for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2023. The Measure F spending plan, which allocates resources to the various categories and projects within Measure F, is reviewed by the City Council annually, in connection with the development of the City's annual budget.
Background:-
In November 2016, the Woodland voters approved Measure F (MSF), which extended the 1/2 cent supplemental sales tax collected within the boundaries of and for the benefit of the City of Woodland.
The 12-year approval of MSF, a general tax, includes funding for general city services such as street maintenance, parks and facility projects, public safety and economic development.
MSF revenue is anticipated to be spent on various categories based on overall community needs.
The City Council has identified Parks, Roads, Public Safety, and Economic Development as the primary general categories for funding.
The initial spending plan was approved by the City Council within the FY2018/19 annual budget on June 19, 2018, which provided an allocation of anticipated MSF revenues in a manner consistent with Council policy direction. The City Council will approve a revised spending plan which is then incorporated into the next fiscal year's annual budget. The City Council adopted a revised MSF spending plan at the May 16, 2023, meeting for incorporation into the FY2023/24 annual budget.
Similar to the process that was followed for Measure E, staff will prepare an annual financial report in December each year, illustrating the actual revenues received and use of the funds, and an updated annual spending plan will be prepared during the spring to be incorporated into the annual budget.
Discussion:
The following table includes (1) a summary of approved uses of MSF, as adopted with the FY2022/23 annual budget, and consistent with the annual spending plan, (2) prior years' expenditures, (3) FY2022/23 expenditures, and (4) the life to date expenditures for each identified category. Final revenues from MSF sales tax for FY2022/23 were $8.6 million, which is 109% of the amended budget.
