PARKS & RECREATION FACILITIES
Woodland Community & Senior Center Recreation Facility Projects Staff is currently working with several user groups on improvements at the Woodland Sports Park. Woodland Recreation Foundation has started to construct the new fast pitch fields on the property. Recently, they have broken ground, graded, and installed light poles. Staff has also worked with Woodland Soccer Club to add field usage to accommodate increased participation. Woodland Tennis Club recently submitted a new proposal to the City to extend their agreement with the City for the development of a tennis complex. Staff is working with the City Attorney on a revised license agreement that will then be reviewed by the Woodland Tennis Club and brought back to the City Council for consideration. Additionally, staff has met with the proponents of the Skate Park that is proposed at the Sports Park to discuss their continued interest in pursuing this project when funds are available.

FY24 Second Quarter Report Page 10
Participant Hours Calculation
The Community Services Department measures programs through “participant hours”. Participant hours are a calculation of total program hours multiplied by the total number of unique participants within a program.
Total participant hours reports how much time participants spend within each program. The measurement breaks down to 1 person x 1 hour = 1 Participant Hour. It should be noted that a higher number of participant hours is not, by itself, a measurement of greater program success compared to the participant hours of another program.
Participant Hours (PH) is calculated by:
Drop-In Programs: 1 Class meeting (in hours) x Total sign ins Examples include Water Aerobics & Lap Swim, Badminton
Classes/Camps/Leagues: Total unique participants x total class time (in hours) Examples include Swim Lessons, Mad Science
Individual Entry: Each class meeting (in hours) x Total in attendance (adding each day) Examples include Teens Helping Seniors, Teen Pack
Event: Total Attendants x Average Time
Examples include ReXpo, 4th of July, Rec2Go visits
Participant hours and participants in this report are listed for the three-month reporting period; therefore if 100 participants are listed, the 100 refers to the total participants for the three-month period and could double or triple count the same participants if they participated each month (i.e. drop in volleyball).

ITEM #: G.7
SUBJECT: Fire Department Semi-Annual Status Report
Recommendation for Action: Staff recommends that the City Council accept the Fire Department Semi-Annual Status Report for July-December 2023.
Staff Contact:
Eric Zane, Fire Chief - 661-586, [email protected]
Background:
The Fire Department Semi-Annual Status Report includes a summary of all activity within the Department. In lieu of providing comprehensive monthly or quarterly status reports to the City Council and department heads, the City Council now receives status reports on a semi-annual basis via agenda packet.
Discussion:
In the past six months, the Woodland Fire Department has undergone significant developments and achievements. The Department successfully recruited and hired two Firefighter Recruits and one Fire Marshal. Additionally, we initiated the construction of a new training prop at Station 3, funded through a grant given to the West Valley Regional Fire Training Consortium and hosted two State Fire Marshal accredited courses, Confined Space Rescue and Trench Rescue.
The Department completed its strategic plan and presented a comprehensive five-year plan to the Council. Additionally, after meticulous evaluation, the Department determined the best, most cost- effective radio system for future replacement. We implemented station coverage automation in an effort to enhance operational efficiency, resulting in significantly reduced unnecessary movement of apparatus and leading to decreased wear and tear and fuel savings. This is reflected in the reduction in "Move Up" calls reflected in the attached summary. The department also contributed to emergency medical services by assisting in the development of a new county-wide ambulance Request for Proposal (RFP), which culminated in a new five-year contract with AMR. Notably, along with the City of West Sacramento, Woodland successfully concluded the Elkhorn Automatic Aid Agreement, improving the Department's ability to prioritize resources for incidents within the city.
In October, The Woodland Fire Department once again taught its annual fire safety education program for every first-grader in Woodland. The initiative emphasized the importance of home fire safety, continuing the Department’s commitment to proactive community engagement.
This synopsis highlights the diverse and impactful initiatives undertaken by the Woodland Fire Department, showcasing our commitment to excellence, community safety, and strategic planning over the past six months.
Conclusion:
Staff recommends that the City Council accept the Fire Department Semi-Annual Status Report for July-December 2023.

SUBJECT: Job Descriptions: Community Enhancement
Specialist and Management Analyst Series
Recommendation for Action: Staff recommends that the City Council approve the amended job descriptions for the Community Enhancement Specialist and the Management Analyst Series.
Staff Contact:
Sheila McShane, Human Resources Manager, (530) 661-5807, [email protected]
Fiscal Impact:
No fiscal impact results from modifications to the job descriptions.
Discussion:
Community Enhancement Specialist:
The fiscal year 2023/24 adopted budget provided funding for implementation of a Community Enhancement Program, including creation of a Community Enhancement Specialist (CES) position.
Various City departments currently respond to blight and neighborhood clean-up efforts as a secondary function of their responsibilities. Creation of this program will help to consolidate the blight abatement efforts throughout the City. The CES position is the primary staff person responsible for coordinating and completing responses to issues such as litter, weed, debris and graffiti removal, biohazard abatement and cleaning of walkways, gutters, alleyways and some landscape areas. This position works in connection with the City's Homeless Outreach Street Team (HOST) and will oversee various contracts with vendors used by the City to complete major waste removal or clean up. The position will reside in the Police Department and work in cooperation with other City departments in the mission to keep the community clean and safe. In order to broaden the candidate pool, the City has amended the job description regarding a Class B License. Due to the nature and the expectation of this position, the previous requirement for a Class B License has been removed. Additionally, because the position is housed in the Police Department, there is a need for the applicant to pass a professional staff background, and the job description has been updated to reflect that need.
Management Analyst Series
City Departments utilize Management Analysts to assist with a wide variety of processes and responsibilities, including participation in the annual budgeting process, supervising employees, development of processes, monitoring contracts, to name a few of their duties. Due to recent retirements and resignations, the City conducted several recruitments for the position of Management Analyst, and the last few recruitments have resulted in small candidate pools. Staff feels the proposed modifications to the job description will allow candidates with more experience, but possibly less education, to participate in recruitments and the City can attract a more robust candidate pool.
Conclusion:
Staff recommends that the City Council approve the amended job descriptions for the Community Enhancement Specialist and the Management Analyst Series.

COUNCIL ACTION: January 16, 2024
TO: THE HONORABLE MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL
AGENDA: City Council Regular Meeting
DATE: January 16, 2024
ITEM #: G.9
SUBJECT: Approval of Amendment #1 to the SLIF
Reimbursement Agreement with TL Revival, L.P. for
Beeghly Lot D (SM5196)
Recommendation for Action: Staff recommends that the City Council adopt Resolution No. _____, approving Amendment #1 to the agreement regarding reimbursement of Spring Lake Specific Plan improvements for Subdivision #5196; and authorizing the City Manager to sign the Amendment on behalf of the City.
Staff Contact:
Ed Wisniewski, Principal Civil Engineer - (530) 661-5820, [email protected]
Fiscal Impact:
There is no impact to the City budget. All reimbursements/credits are handled through the Spring Lake Infrastructure Fee (SLIF) program.
Background:
On August 17th, 2021, City Council approved final subdivision map 5196, Beeghly Lot D, consisting of 62 single-family lots, and a Subdivision Improvement Agreement. At the same time, Council approved a SLIF Reimbursement Agreement for SLIF eligible cost at a total estimated value of $217,620, and authorized a 15% contingency.
On May 16th, 2023, the City Council accepted improvements for the subdivision. These improvements included certain SLIF funded backbone improvements. SLIF eligible improvements for this project include the concrete privacy & retaining wall along Parkland Ave within the project frontage limits.
Subsequent to acceptance of the improvements, TL Revival, L.P. submitted documentation of their SLIF reimbursable expenses in the form of construction contracts, contractor invoices, and canceled checks. The total cost actually expended by TL Revival, L.P. exceeds the amount listed in the original SLIF Agreement by more than the authorized contingency amount.
Discussion:
The SLIF reimbursement agreement states that the Developer will be reimbursed at actual costs pending submission of evidence of expenses related to SLIF eligible infrastructure. When the original agreement was drafted in 2021, the SLIF costs were based on estimated construction costs provided by the Developer’s engineer. The standard practice for a developer to obtain reimbursement involves reconciling their actual costs at the end of the project and amending the Reimbursement Agreement to document the final agreed upon costs. When the amount is greater than the contingency approved by council, the amendment returns to council. In this case, the SLIF reimbursable amount is being revised from $217,620 to $308,259.24 (41.7% greater than the original amount). The actual cost of the concrete privacy walls was considerably higher than originally estimated, which resulted in the overrun of the original agreement amount. The original engineer's estimate also neglected to include the 10 pilaster columns installed within the 450-foot stretch of wall.
Conclusion:
Staff recommends that the City Council adopt Resolution No. _____, approving Amendment #1 to the agreement regarding reimbursement of Spring Lake Specific Plan improvements for Subdivision #5196; and authorizing the City Manager to sign the Amendment on behalf of the City.

ITEM #: G.10
SUBJECT: Approval of Plans and Specifications, and
Authorization of Advertisement for the 2024 Water
and Sewer Repair and Replacement Project, CIP 23-
02 Recommendation for Action: Staff recommends that the City Council adopt Resolution No. _____, (1) Approving the Project plans and specifications, and (2) Authorizing bid advertisement for the 2024 Water and Sewer Repair and Replacement Project, CIP 23-02.
Staff Contact:
Mark Miller, Associate Engineer - (530) 661-5968, [email protected]
Fiscal Impact:
The engineer's estimate of construction cost is $3.8 million. The estimated total project cost is $4.5 million and includes design, construction, construction contingency, inspection, and construction management costs.
Funding for the 2024 Water and Sewer Repair and Replacement Project, CIP 23-02 (the “Project”), is split between Sewer and Water Enterprise Funds. The estimate at this time is that the split will be $4.1 million from the Water Enterprise Fund and $400,000 from the Sewer Enterprise Fund. These costs are subject to change based on actual bid prices. An updated budget analysis will be prepared after receiving the bids. The Project is currently funded in the Capital Budget, which was approved by the City Council on June 20, 2023, with $3.2 million of Water Enterprise Funding and $800,000 of Sewer Enterprise Funding. This current funding in CIP 23-02 was allocated prior to finalizing the scope of work included in the Project. Award of the Construction Contract will be presented to Council for approval at a future date, at which time any necessary additional funding will be recommended for allocation to the Project.
There is no impact on the City’s General Fund.
Background:
Set to break ground in Spring 2024, CIP 23-02 was scoped as the eighth phase of a multi-year project where Engineering and Operations staff identify locations in the City that have the greatest occurrence of water main and water lateral breaks and leaks, and prioritize these locations for replacement. The 2024 Project area is described as the vicinity of Homewood Drive between Gibson Road and Coloma Way, Rosewood Way, and Fourth Street and Third Street between Marshall Avenue and Homewood Drive. The Project area can be visualized on the attached map and contains a network of potable water mainlines that were constructed between 1946 and 1978 that range from 46 to 78 years old. These mainlines are made of ductile iron and cast iron, which have typical average service lives of 50 years after proper installation. The Project will replace the existing network with a new polyvinyl chloride mainline constructed in the street and will connect residences along the route with new polyethylene services.
Staff periodically evaluates the city sewer collection system according to the Sewer System Management Plan guidelines. Each sewer pipe in the city is attributed a condition rating that is
regularly updated with the goal of eliminating sewer overflows and providing adequate sewer capacity to residents. Though the existing sewer pipes within the Project area are between 74 and 107 years old, they are generally in fair condition and do not warrant complete replacement. Nevertheless, the most severe defects identified by staff will be excavated and replaced with the Project.
Discussion:
Areas of the city where infrastructure is identified for replacement often coincide with streets that have a network of smaller diameter water distribution mains buried behind the sidewalks. Due to many characteristics such as their age, size, location, material composition and burial depth, these back-of-walk mains are a constant nuisance for Operations staff to maintain as well as for City residents who install fencing or landscaping on their property’s frontage. These back-of-walk mains exist in the 2024 Project vicinity and have been experiencing an increasing number of breaks and leaks in recent years. Once completed, the Project will have replaced under one mile of aging drinking water distribution network, which will result in more reliable water pressure and uninterrupted water service for approximately 106 residences.
The existing sewer system in the Project vicinity consists of six-inch, eight-inch and twelve-inch diameter vitrified clay mainlines in the street that were constructed as early as 1917. Though over a century old, these sewers are in relatively fair condition and only a handful of mainline spot repairs are planned in the Project. Thirty-seven individual sewer laterals which contain sags or breaks will be replaced during construction, and the Project will abandon one of the two parallel, redundant collection mains on Fourth Street. The 2024 Project will also rebuild one sewer utility hole and reshape the bottom of three others.
Conclusion:
Staff recommends that the City Council adopt Resolution No. _____, (1) Approving the Project plans and specifications, and (2) Authorizing bid advertisement for the 2024 Water and Sewer Repair and Replacement Project, CIP 23-02.

ITEM #: G.11
SUBJECT: Community Center Parking Lot Expansion Project (CIP 24-08) – Create a New Capital Project and
Approve a Consultant Agreement
Recommendation for Action: Staff recommends that the City Council adopt Resolution No. _____, to 1) approve a new capital project: Community Center Parking Lot Expansion Project (CIP 24-08), 2) appropriate a $1,000,000 transfer of Measure J reserve funds (Fund 1101) to the City's General Capital Fund, 3) appropriate $200,000 in the General Capital Fund (Fund 1501) to the Project, and 4) authorize the City Manager to execute a Professional Services Agreement with Laugenour and Meikle in an amount up to $136,541 for engineering and landscape design services and authorize the City Manager to execute amendments up to 15% of the agreement amount ($20,481).
Staff Contact:
Ed Wisniewski, Principal Civil Engineer, (530) 661-5975, [email protected]
Fiscal Impact:
The City has earmarked $1.5 million in funding to assist with future Sports Park projects, including $1 million in Measure J reserves and $500,000 in Measure F reserves. To facilitate expenditure of the Measure J funds on this project, the requested action will first appropriate the $1 million in Measure J reserve balances (currently included in the General Fund) as a transfer to the City's General Capital Fund. A second action will appropriate $200,000 of this transferred amount to cover design and project management costs. The project will be designed to stay within the total project budget of $1.5M earmarked for these improvements. Staff will return to Council with a future request to appropriate additional funds at the time of the construction contract award.
Background:
On September 25, 2017, the Parks & Recreation Commission approved a conceptual plan of new parks and recreation facilities at the Woodland Sports Park. The recommendation presented to the Parks & Recreation Commission was the result of a City Council and Parks & Recreation Commission subcommittee tasked with evaluating current and future recreation facility needs. On October 17, 2017, staff presented the conceptual master plan for buildout of the Woodland Sports Park to the City Council. Following that meeting, the master plan was further refined and once again presented to Council on March 6, 2018.
Recommendations included in the master plan reports provided to the Parks & Recreation Commission and the City Council were provided as “Level A” and “Level B” recommendations: “Level A” projects are those that have the highest current need based on community need. “Level B” projects are projects that have an acknowledged high level of need and take a second priority only to the Level A projects. The need to construct additional parking was identified as a “Level A” recommendation. The master plan identified the grassy area in front of the main entrance to the Community & Senior Center as the area to provide the additional parking.
Discussion:
The City received Statements of Qualification from consultants in response to the City’s Request for Qualifications to design various roadway projects advertised on July 26, 2019. Staff reviewed,
scored and ranked the statements received, and Laugenour and Meikle (L&M) was one of the top ranked consultants. They were chosen to design the western half of the Gibson Road Rehabilitation Project and have completed a multitude of other projects as consultants to the City of Woodland. L&M has extensive experience in the design of parking lots such as this one and has included the primary Sports Park Master Plan consultant, Callander & Associates, to serve as the project’s landscape architect. Staff has concluded negotiations for the final contract amount with L&M and is requesting that Council approve the consultant agreement at an amount not to exceed $136,541.
With the new aquatic center scheduled to open in fall of 2025, there is a window to complete the parking improvements this summer and address the previously identified parking deficiency when holding larger events at the Woodland Sports Park. In addition to providing much needed additional parking, the project will also fulfill a need to provide a higher quantity of handicapped parking spaces, which has also been identified as a need by the primary users of the Community & Senior Center. With authorization to proceed from City Council, staff will begin working with the design consultants immediately with the goal of advertising the project for bid later this spring so that construction can be completed before the rainy season of 2024.
Conclusion:
Staff recommends that the City Council adopt Resolution No. _____, to 1) approve a new capital project: Community Center Parking Lot Expansion Project (CIP 24-08), 2) appropriate a $1,000,000 transfer of Measure J reserve funds (Fund 1101) to the City's General Capital Fund, 3) appropriate $200,000 in the General Capital Fund (Fund 1501) to the Project, and 4) authorize the City Manager to execute a Professional Services Agreement with Laugenour and Meikle in an amount up to $136,541 for engineering and landscape design services and authorize the City Manager to execute amendments up to 15% of the agreement amount ($20,481).

TO: THE HONORABLE MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL
AGENDA: City Council Regular Meeting
DATE: January 16, 2024
ITEM #: H.12
SUBJECT: Woodland Police Department 2024-2026 Strategic Plan
Recommendation for Action: Staff recommends that the City Council receive a presentation on the Woodland Police Department’s 2024-2026 Strategic Plan, which outlines specific goals and objectives. This document will serve as a guide for the Department to attain both a higher level of service to the public and a more nurturing environment for the department staff over the next (2) years.
Staff Contact
Derrek Kaff, Police Chief, (530) 661-7865, [email protected]
Council Goals
The Woodland Police Department’s 2024-2026 Strategic Plan addresses (3) areas of focus that align with the following City Council Goals:
• City Council Goal #1 – Improve Quality of Life
• City Council Goal #3 – Strengthen Public Safety & Infrastructure. • City Council Goal #4 – Enhance Governance & Fiscal Responsibility
Background
Chief Kaff invited all department staff to participate in the 2024–2026 Strategic Plan Steering Committee meetings, which commenced in April 2023. The committee was comprised of both sworn and professional staff from various ranks and bureaus. During the formulation of this new Strategic Plan, committee members engaged in brainstorming, research, and the development of potential goals, grounded in their perception of attainability over the course of the next (2) years. Nevertheless, this plan will remain adaptable and subject to updates as necessary to address our continually evolving demands.
In May 2023, the Committee distributed an internal survey to all department employees, giving them the opportunity to contribute additional input anonymously. The survey aimed to address a wide range of internal needs among the employees. These are needs that, when met, would enhance their ability to serve the community better. The responses from (80) employees provided valuable and important information.
The Committee also actively sought input from the public in both English and Spanish, engaging with the community at a Town Hall meeting, Coffee Shops, and La Superior. Participants were invited to prioritize different areas, and the findings from all public surveys consistently highlighted the same top (5) areas, albeit in different sequences:
Town Hall Meeting 2/25/23:
1. Traffic
2. Outreach/Education
3. Mitigating the Effects of Homelessness (Unhoused Persons)
4. Violent/Major Crime
5. School Safety
Coffee Listening Sessions 3/08/23:
1. Unhoused Persons
2. Violent/Major Crime
3. School Safety
4. Traffic
5. Outreach/Education
La Superior Tabling Session 3/16/23:
1. Violent/Major Crime
2. Unhoused Persons
3. School Safety
4. Traffic
5. Outreach/Education
These surveys solicited crucial input and assessed the significance of each focus area from respondents. The feedback and perspective gathered from both employee and community surveys proved invaluable to the Committee. These responses assisted the Committee in formulating specific strategies, goals, and tasks for each focus area.
Throughout the development of the Strategic Plan, Chief Kaff presented draft versions to employees and their associations, the City Council Public Safety Subcommittee, and the Chief’s Advisory Board.
The (5) focus areas are:
1. Prioritize employee well-being through thoughtful and strategically managed workload with emphasis on wellness and continuous education
2. Cultivate a diverse, risk-intelligent, and innovative culture
3. Reduce violent crime and hold prolific offenders accountable to create a safer community
4. Enhance internal communication and external outreach to foster transparency and strengthen community engagement
5. Prioritize and address concerns related to traffic, the effects of homelessness, and Woodland’s most frequent crimes
Conclusion: Staff recommends that the City Council receive a presentation on the Woodland Police Department’s 2024-2026 Strategic Plan, which outlines specific goals and objectives. This document will serve as a guide for the Department to attain both a higher level of service to the public and a more nurturing environment for the department staff over the next (2) years.

Staff Contact:
Spencer Bowen, Communication & Strategic Policies Manager, (530) 661-5808, [email protected]
Background:
City Council members has emphasized the need for the City to prioritize diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) both within our workplace and in the public services we provide. In Spring 2022, the City collaborated with a team of UC Berkeley graduate students to perform an analysis and needs assessment of Woodland's equity and inclusion policies. Following receipt of the students' report in Summer 2022, City Council established an ad-hoc DEI subcommittee to lead the production of an Equity Action Plan. On January 17, 2023, Council adopted the City’s first Equity Action Plan.
The Equity Action Plan addresses both internal and external diversity, equity, and inclusion goals. As detailed in the attachment, the plan includes the following broad results to be achieved through its actions:
Internal Work
• Result #1: City staff, leadership, and elected officials understand and are committed to equity
External Work
• Result #2: Woodland residents are well-served and feel included by City programs and outreach
• Result #3: The City of Woodland governs in a way that prioritizes equitable opportunity, justice, and safety
