3.21.1 Impact Assessment/Environmental Consequences:
a) Does the project have the potential to substantially degrade the quality of the environment, substantially reduce the habitat of a fish or wildlife species, cause a fish or wildlife population to drop below self-sustaining levels, threaten to eliminate a plant or animal community, substantially reduce the number or restrict the range of a rare or endangered plant or animal or eliminate important example of the major periods of California history or prehistory? The land was stripped many years ago of native vegetation for agricultural uses. Therefore, with the proposed mitigation measure for raptors that may be nesting on the property, the construction of this subdivision will not significantly degrade the quality of the natural environment, substantially reduce the habitat of a fish or wildlife species, cause a fish or wildlife population to drop below self-sustaining levels, threaten to eliminate a plant or animal community, reduce the number or restrict the range of a rare or endangered plant or animal or eliminate an important example of the major periods of California history or prehistory.
The analysis conducted in this Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration results in a determination that the proposed Project, with its mitigation measures, will have a less than significant effect on the local environment.
93 b) Does the project have impacts that are individually limited, but cumulatively considerable? ("Cumulatively considerable" means that the incremental effects of a project are considerable when viewed in connection with the effects of past projects, the effects of other current projects, and the effects of probable future projects)
CEQA Guidelines Section 15064(i) states that a Lead Agency shall consider whether the cumulative impact of a project is significant and whether the effects of the project are cumulatively considerable. The assessment of the significance of the cumulative effects of a project must, therefore, be conducted in connection with the effects of past projects, other current projects, and probable future projects.
This Project is consistent with the residential densities and policies of the General Plan. As such the traffic generated by the Project is within what was anticipated in the General Plan which considered anticipated future growth of the area. The City has adequate water and wastewater capacity and the Project will be extending those services to the site. Stormwater drainage will also meet all City standards. The City has good development and design standards that will be applied to the subdivision. The loss of agricultural land is cumulative but based on City and County agricultural protection program, the loss is limited to within the urban areas of the cities which is a minor portion of the entire County. The school district has not indicated that they lack capacity to provide proper educational facilities to the new students. The FRAQMD also did not comment that the project would create any significant cumulative impacts on air quality. Therefore, there are no significant impacts that will be individually limited but cumulatively considerable.
c) Does the project have environmental effects, which will cause substantial adverse effects on human beings, either directly or indirectly?
The proposed Project in and of itself would not create a significant hazard to the public or the environment. Construction-related air quality, noise, and hazardous materials exposure impacts would occur for a very short period and only be a minor impact during that time period. Therefore, the proposed Project would not have any direct or indirect significant adverse impacts on humans.

3.13. Noise Noise Mitigation Measure 1: The project
contractor(s) shall ensure that the following
measures are implemented during all phases of
project construction:
a) Whenever construction occurs on parcels
less than 50-feet from residential buildings
where people normally sleep, schools or
other sensitive uses, when it occurs during
later project stages on parcels near
residential and other noise-sensitive uses
built on-site during earlier project stages,
temporary barriers shall be constructed
around the construction sites to shield the
ground floor and lower stories of the noisesensitive uses. These barriers shall be of ¾- inch Medium Density Overlay (MDO)
plywood sheeting, or other material of
equivalent utility and appearance, and shall
achieve a Sound Transmission Class of STC30, or greater, based on certified sound transmission loss data taken according to
ASTM Test Method E90. The barrier shall not
contain any gaps at its base or face, except
for site access and surveying openings. The
barrier height shall be designed to break the
line-of-sight and provide at least a 5-dBA
insertion loss between the noise producing
equipment and the upper-most story of the
adjacent noise-sensitive uses. If, for practical
reasons, which are subject to the review and
approval of the City, a barrier cannot be built
to provide noise relief to the upper stories of
nearby noise-sensitive uses, then it must be
built to the tallest feasible height.
b) Construction equipment staging areas shall
be located as far as possible from residential
areas while still serving the needs of
construction contractor(s).
c) High noise activities, such as jackhammers,
drills, impact wrenches and other generators

of sporadic high noise peaks, shall be
restricted to the hours of 7:00 a.m. to 6:00
p.m. Monday through Friday, unless it can be
proved to the satisfaction of the City that the
allowance of work outside these hours and
dates would not adversely affect nearby
noise-sensitive receptors.
d) Construction equipment shall be properly
muffled and maintained with noise reduction
devices to minimize construction-generated
noise.
e) The unnecessary idling of internal
combustion engines shall be prohibited.
f) Residents and businesses within 300 feet of
the construction site shall be notified of the
construction scheduling in writing.
g) The construction contractor shall designate a
“noise disturbance coordinator” for
construction activities. The coordinator shall
be responsible for responding to any local
complaints regarding construction noise. The
coordinator shall determine the cause of the
noise complaint (i.e., starting too early, bad
muffler, no shielding), and would require that
reasonable measures warranted to correct
the problem be implemented. A telephone
number for the construction coordinator
shall be posted at the construction site and
be included in the notice sent to neighbors
and businesses regarding the construction
schedule.

3.18. Tribal Cultural
Resources
Tribal Cultural Resources Mitigation 1: Worker
Awareness Training. The developer shall ensure that
a Worker Education Program is developed and
delivered to train equipment operators about
cultural resources and training shall be documented.
The program shall be designed to inform workers
about: federal and state regulations pertaining to
cultural resources and tribal cultural resources; the
subsurface indicators of resources that shall require a work stoppage; procedures for notifying the City of
any occurrences; and enforcement of penalties and
repercussions for non-compliance with the program.
Worker education training may be provided either in
person or as a DVD with a training binder, prepared
by a qualified professional archaeologist and
reviewed by the City. The United Auburn Indian
Community (UAIC) shall be afforded the option of
attending the initial training in person or providing a video segment or information for incorporation into
the training that appeals to the contractor's need to
be respectful of tribal cultural resources and tribal
participation in implementing unanticipated
discovery protocols. All ground-disturbing equipment
operators shall be required to receive the training
and sign a form that acknowledges receipt of the
training. A copy of the form shall be provided to the
City as proof of compliance.
Tribal Cultural Resources Mitigation 2: Avoid and
minimize impacts to previously unknown Tribal
Cultural Resources. If any cultural resources, such as
structural features, unusual amounts of bone or shell,
artifacts, human remains, or architectural remains
are encountered during the initial inspection or
during any subsequent construction activities, work
shall be suspended within 100 feet of the find, and
the construction supervisor shall immediately notify
the City representative. If the find includes human
remains, then the City shall immediately notify the
Sutter County Coroner and the procedures in Section
7050.5 of the California Health and Safety Code and,
if applicable, Section 5097.98 of the Public Resources
Code, shall be followed. For resources reasonably
associated with Native American cultural and for
human remains, the City shall coordinate any

necessary investigation of the discovery with a UAIC
tribal representative and a qualified archaeologist
approved by the City. As part of the site investigation and resource assessment, the City shall consult with
UAIC to develop, document, and implement
appropriate management recommendations, should
potential impacts to the resources be found by the
City to be significant. Nothing in this measure
prohibits the City from considering any comments
from other culturally-affiliated Native American
tribes that volunteer information to the City during its investigation. Possible management
recommendations could include documentation,
data recovery, or (if deemed feasible by the City)
preservation in place. The contractor shall implement
any measures deemed by City staff to be necessary
and feasible to avoid, minimize, or mitigate
significant effects to the cultural resources, such as
the use of a Native American Monitor whenever work
is occurring within 100 feet of the discovery of Native American resources, if deemed appropriate by the
City.
The types of treatment preferred by UAIC that
protects, preserves or restores the integrity of tribal cultural resources may include Tribal Monitoring, or
recovery of cultural objects, and reburial of cultural
objects or cultural soil that is done in a culturally
appropriate manner. Recommendations of the
treatment of tribal cultural resources will be
documented in the project record. For any
recommendations.

FOCUSED TRAFFIC IMPACT ANALYSIS
FOR SOHAL RANCH SUBDIVISION
Yuba City, CA
INTRODUCTION
This report summarizes MHM Incorporated analysis of the potential traffic related mitigation measures within the Lincoln East Specific Plan (LESP) Project EIR and CEQA requirements for the impacts and traffic operational effects associated with the Sohal Ranch Subdivision in Yuba City, California. The Sohal Ranch Subdivision is located in southwest Yuba City at the southeast corner of South George Washington Boulevard and Lincoln Road. Figure 1 presents the site relative to the vicinity and the proposed tentative map is shown in Figure 2.
Project Description. Sohal Ranch will occupy roughly 40 acres located in the southeast corner of South George Washington Boulevard and Lincoln Road. The project proposes 179 single family residential lots and a neighborhood park of 2.63 net acres. Access to the local circulation system is planned at two intersections, one onto Lincoln Road and one onto South George Washington Boulevard. In the future, there will be an access to Harter Parkway. The project was part of the Lincoln East Specific Plan which was rescinded by the City Council.
The land use and circulation plan developed in the LESP is still part of the City zoning and General Plan maps.
Analysis Approach. The purpose of this focused analysis is to review mitigation measures from the LESP for some key intersections near the proposed Sohal Ranch Subdivision. The intersections and roadways reviewed are as follows:
1) Bogue Road/Sanborn Road – Review mitigation measure within the LESP and determine the CEQA requirements for the Sohal Ranch.
2) Franklin Road/Walton Avenue – Review mitigation measure within the LESP and determine the CEQA requirements for the Sohal Ranch.
3) Lincoln Road/Walton Avenue – Review mitigation measure within the LESP and determine the CEQA requirements for the Sohal Ranch.
4) Bogue Road/Walton Avenue – Review mitigation measure within the LESP and determine the CEQA requirements for the Sohal Ranch.
5) Franklin Road/George Washington Boulevard – Review mitigation measure within the LESP and determine the CEQA requirements for the Sohal Ranch. 6) Lincoln Road/George Washington Boulevard – Review mitigation measure within the LESP and determine the CEQA requirements for the Sohal Ranch. 7) Bogue Road/George Washington Boulevard – Review mitigation measure within the LESP and

determine the CEQA requirements for the Sohal Ranch.
8) Lincoln Road/Sanborn Road – Review mitigation measure within the LESP and determine the CEQA requirements for the Sohal Ranch.
9) Lincoln Road/SR 99 – Review mitigation measure within the LESP and determine the CEQA requirements for the Sohal Ranch.
10) Lincoln Road/Harter Parkway – Review mitigation measure within the LESP and determine the CEQA requirements for the Sohal Ranch.

EXISTING SETTING
Study Area
This focused review of LESP mitigation measures at ten (10) existing intersections within the area that may be affected by the proposed project. The limits of the study area were identified through discussions with Yuba City staff based on their knowledge of the community and the results of previous traffic studies conducted for development in Yuba City.
Level of Service
Level of Service. To quantitatively evaluate traffic conditions and to provide a basis for comparison of operating conditions with and without project generated traffic, Levels of Service were determined at study area intersections from previous traffic studies. “Level of Service” (LOS) is a quantitative measure of traffic operating conditions whereby a letter grade “A” through “F” is assigned to an intersection. LOS “A” through “F” represents progressively worsening traffic conditions. The characteristics associated with the various LOS for intersections are presented in Table 1. The City of Yuba City General Plan has established LOS “D” measured over the peak hour as the minimum standard for City streets, with specific exceptions identified where conditions in excess of the LOS D standard will be acceptable.

PROJECT CHARACTERISTICS
Project Description
The text that follows describes the characteristics of the project in terms of automobile trip generation and distribution.
Trip Generation. The number of vehicle trips that are expected to be generated by development of the Sohal Ranch Subdivision can be estimated using typical trip generation rates for single family development. Applicable rates are published by the Institute of Transportation Engineers (ITE) in Trip Generation Manual, 11th Edition. These rates are presented in Table 4, and as shown 167 trips in the evening p.m. peak hour.

CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATION
Following the review of the previous traffic studies in the Project Description and using the mitigation measures in the LESP, we have prepared Table 6 summarize the mitigation measures for the Sohal Ranch Subdivision Project. It should be noted that some of these improvements have been completed since the traffic study has been completed. Our developer still needs to pay fair share either through AB 1600 or reimbursement agreements.

STAFF REPORT
Date: November 7, 2023
To: Honorable Mayor & Members of the City Council;
From: Administration Department
Presentation By: Diana Langley, City Manager
Summary
Subject: Sutter Butte Flood Control Agency Letter of Support for the Yuba City Sediment Removal Project
Recommendation: Authorize the Mayor to submit a Letter of Support for the Sutter Butte Flood Control Agency Yuba City Sediment Removal Project
Fiscal Impact: None to the City. SBFCA's estimated project cost is $10,203,000.
Purpose:
For the Sutter Butte Flood Control Agency to pursue grant funding for the Yuba City Sediment Removal Project.
Council's Strategic Goal:
This item addresses Council's goal of Public Safety.
Background:
The failure of the Lake Oroville spillway in February 2017 resulted in excessive amounts of debris and sediment in the Feather River. The deposits removed natural habitat for local fish and made the Yuba City Boat Launch inaccessible during low flow periods. In 2020, SBFCA received Proposition 68 funding from the California Natural Resources Agency to remove approximately 65,000 cubic yards of sediment to increase channel capacity and improve access to the river.
Analysis:
The Sutter Butte Flood Control Agency (SBFCA) is applying for a National Oceanic and Atmospheric Association (NOAA) fisheries grant to pursue funding for another sediment removal project. The NOAA funding opportunity is for transformational habitat restoration and coastal resilience projects under the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law and Inflation Reduction Act. SBFCA's funding ask to NOAA is ~$10.2M, which includes project management, final design, environmental support, construction management support, and implementation costs associated with the project.
SBFCA's Sediment Removal Project is a sediment excavation ecosystem rehabilitation project at the confluence of the Feather and Yuba Rivers. The project aims to improve reaches of the lower Feather
and Yuba Rivers used by anadromous fish during their adult immigration and juvenile emigration periods and short-term holding and rearing. SBFCA is applying for funding for Phase 2 of the project, which will remove an additional approximately 250,000 cubic yards of sediment immediately downstream of the Phase 1 area to further restore fish passage, improve conveyance at the confluence of the Yuba and Feather Rivers, enhance habitat values for anadromous fish species, remove public recreational safety hazards, and improve access by emergency response vessels in the vicinity. The project will target streamflow enhancements to benefit critical habitat and the following species: Chinook - Central Valley fall/late fall run, Central Valley spring-run, Central Valley steelhead, and green sturgeon.
Fiscal Impact:
The funding needed for the project is $10,203,000.
Alternatives:
Do not support the project.
Recommendation:
Authorize the Mayor to submit a Letter of Support for the Sutter Butte Flood Control Agency Yuba City Sediment Removal Project.

RE: SUPPORT FOR THE SUTTER BUTTE FLOOD CONTROL AGENCY (SBFCA)
YUBA CITY SEDIMENT REMOVAL PROJECT
Dear Mr. Bessette:
By this communication, the City of Yuba City indicates its support for the Yuba City Sediment Removal Project. Sediment buildup in portions of the Feather River, exacerbated by the Oroville Dam Spillway incident of 2017, has created dangerous conditions for recreational users and has negatively impacted fish migration along this reach of the Feather River. We have reviewed the proposed project and agree that implementation of this project would provide significant enhancements to restoring river access and fish passage conditions at the confluence of the Yuba and Feather Rivers.
The City of Yuba City supports jointly produced and implemented multi-benefit projects such as this one because they provide greater efficiency in the use of scarce public funds and better overall results. The City of Yuba City appreciates the willingness of SBFCA to serve as the lead agency for this joint effort and we fully support the efforts of SBFCA as they seek external funding for this project.
Sincerely,
Wade Kirchner
Mayor

Feather River Sediment Removal
Project
Project Area
The project area includes a
reach of the lower Feather
River located just downstream
of the confluence with the
Yuba River, south of
Marysville and Yuba City.
Background
When the Lake Oroville
spillway failed in February
2017, excessive amounts of
debris and sediment were
washed down the Feather
River. The soil, sand, and gravel deposits removed natural habitat for local fish and made the Yuba City Boat Launch inaccessible during low flow periods, restricting waterway access for recreation and emergency response. In 2020, SBFCA received Proposition 68 funding from the California Natural Resources Agency to remove approximately 65,000 cubic yards of sediment (Phase 1) to increase channel capacity and improve access to the river.
Project Description
The Phase 2 project goal is to remove an additional 250,000 cubic yards of sediment at the confluence of the Feather and Yuba Rivers to further restore fish passage, improve
conveyance at the confluence of these rivers, enhance habitat values for anadromous fish species, remove public
recreational safety hazards, and improve access for emergency response vessels in the vicinity. The project area involves two major Central Valley rivers supporting federal and California ESA-listed anadromous fish. The project must move forward quickly to capitalize on the environmental and permitting work that was funded and completed during Phase 1, which will expire in April 2026. Additionally, there are significant cost savings associated with the opportunity to dispose of the sediment at the City of Marysville’s Wastewater Treatment Ponds located just north of the confluence, eliminating the need for significant disposal hauling and resulting in
substantial cost savings. Figure 1: Aerial Imagery of the In-Channel Sediment Accumulation to be Removed in Phase 2 of the Feather
River Sediment Removal Project
Phase 2
Project Area
Phase 1
Project Area
Sheet 2 of 2 | July 31, 2023
Primary Goals
• Remove Excess Sediment Buildup – Increase flow
conveyance and improve water/sediment quality in
the local and downstream areas.
• Improve Fish Passage Conditions – Improve
available deep-water pools and restore important
migratory and short-term rearing habitat for federal
and California ESA-listed anadromous fish species.
• Improve Emergency and Recreational Egress –
Increase access for emergency response and
recreational vessels for disadvantaged communities
along the Feather and Yuba Rivers.
Supporting Goals
• Water Quality – Remove excess fine sediments which may have entrapped pollutants, decrease turbidity, and restore the natural flow regime and hydraulics within the project area. • Ecosystem Benefits – Restore designated critical habitat for Chinook-Central Valley fall/late fall run, Central Valley spring-run, Central Valley steelhead, and green sturgeon. An increase in deep-water pools and holding locations will aid migrating salmonids by providing more conducive in-stream conditions and places to rest during their lengthy upstream migrations. Additional benefits include an increase in habitat complexity, food supply, and foraging success.
• Disadvantage Communities – Provide hydraulic, ecological, emergency, and recreational benefits to disadvantaged communities.
• Economic Activity – Stimulate the local economy through short- and long-term construction activities and improved recreational opportunities.
Project Funding Needs
Funding for Phase 2 is needed to prepare the construction bid package, conduct environmental monitoring during construction, construction management and engineering during construction, and construction. The volume of excavation is currently proposed as 250,000 cubic yards. This can be easily scaled to remove less volume from the river, based on available funding, and still result in beneficial improvements to the region. If done soon, the project will be more cost-efficient because it would capitalize on permitting completed during Phase 1 (i.e., all permits and approvals have been obtained for the Phase 2 work) and the temporary opportunity to dispose of sediment at the City of Marysville’s Wastewater Treatment Pond. The current funding need is approximately $10,203,000. See table below for a breakdown of the project cost by task:
Task
Number Description Cost
Task 1 Project Management $188,000
Task 2 Final Civil Design & Prepare Bid Package $75,000 Task 3 Environmental Monitoring $870,000
Task 4 Construction Management and
Engineering During Construction $870,000
Task 5 Construction $8,200,000
Total $10,203,000
SBFCA does not currently have any grant applications under consideration but is actively pursuing funding opportunities.

CITY OF YUBA CITY
STAFF REPORT
Date: November 7, 2023
To: Honorable Mayor & Members of the City Council;City of Yuba City From: Development Services Department
Presentation By: Doug Libby, Deputy Director of Development Services Summary
Subject: Consideration of 763 Reeves Ave Public Convenience or Necessity Request Recommendation: Adopt a Resolution making a finding of public convenience or necessity for the transfer of a Type 20 (Off-Sale Beer & Wine) Alcoholic Beverage Control (ABC) License at the northeast corner of Cooper Ave and Reeves Ave (763 Reeves Ave)
Fiscal Impact: No direct fiscal impact will result from recommending approval of the proposed Alcoholic Beverage Control application
Purpose:
Consideration to make a finding of public convenience or necessity for the transfer of a Type 20 (OffSale Beer & Wine) Alcoholic Beverage Control License at the northeast corner of Cooper Ave and Reeves Ave for continued use as a convenience store.
Council’s Strategic Goal:
Business Friendly.
Background:
The City has received an Alcoholic and Beverage Control (ABC) application from the property owner at 763 Reeves Avenue, Shiraz Kara, requesting approval to transfer an existing Type 20 (Off-Sale Beer & Wine) license from 1301 E Chapman Ave, Fullerton CA, to this location. ABC defines this license type as providing for the sale of beer, and wine for consumption off the premises. It does not allow for the sale of open containers of alcohol.
When ABC receives an application for a location where a high concentration of licenses exists, or has a crime rate exceeding 120% of the average, the local government is required to approve the proposal before ABC approves it. In this instance, it is not the concentration of existing licenses that are in place but rather the crime rate exceeds 120 percent of the average number of offenses (1,389) in the census tract. The application indicates that in Police Beat No. 3, 1,586 offenses have occurred over a 1-year period in which the statistic was taken.
On March 7, 2023, the City Council approved the transfer of the existing Type 21 (Off-Sale General) license from 763 Reeves to 759 Reeves Avenue. The previous tenant at 763 Reeves Avenue (Cooper Avenue Market) is constructing a new store immediately adjacent at 759 Reeves Avenue, and transferred the Type 21 (Off-Sale General) license to the new location. The property owner of the former store has found a new tenant with a Type 20 (Off-Sale Beer and Wine) license and desires to
transfer their license to 763 Reeves Ave to operate a convenience store that provides for the sale of beer and wine.
The transfer of the Type 20 (Off-Sale Beer and Wine) license adds an additional license to this census tract where the two establishments will operate side-by-side to one another.
Analysis:
The owner of 763 Reeves Ave proposes that the convenience store be open until 8pm, daily. Both ABC and State Business and Professions Code, Section 23958, states the local governing body (City Council in this instance) must determine that there is a public convenience or necessity served to the community, in order for the license application to be approved by ABC due to the crime rate exceeding 120% of the average number of offenses per district.
The Police Department has reviewed the application and has not expressed opposition to the proposal.
Fiscal Impact:
No direct fiscal impact will result from making a finding of public convenience and necessity for the transfer of a Type 20 (Off-Sale Beer & Wine) Alcoholic Beverage Control License at the northeast corner of Cooper Ave and Reeves Ave in Yuba City.
Alternatives:
Do not make a finding of public convenience and necessity for the transfer of a Type 20 (Off-Sale Beer & Wine) Alcoholic Beverage Control License at the northeast corner of Cooper Ave and Reeves Ave in Yuba City.
Recommendations:
Adopt a Resolution making a finding of public convenience and necessity for the transfer of a Type 20 (Off-Sale Beer & Wine) Alcoholic Beverage Control License at the northeast corner of Cooper Ave and Reeves Ave in Yuba City.

convenience and necessity would be served by the transfer of a Type 20 (Off-Sale Beer & Wine) License for the location at 763 Reeves Ave. It does not have a potential for resulting in a reasonably foreseeable physical change to the existing environment.
3. The City Council finds and determines the public convenience and necessity is met in the present circumstances for reasons including the following:
a. Approving the PCN will not have a potential for resulting in a reasonably foreseeable physical change to the existing environment. It is commonly accepted throughout the industry that convenience stores sell alcoholic beverages. The Applicant has demonstrated through past performance and intended operational characteristics that alcoholic beverages will be sold safely and in accordance with applicable laws. b. The request to permit alcohol sales for off-premise consumption in conjunction with this establishment will not adversely affect the surrounding land uses and the growth and development of the area because this use is compatible with the nearby developments.
c. The determination of Public Convenience or Necessity, under the conditions imposed, will not be detrimental to the health and safety of the citizens of the City of Yuba City.
4. This resolution shall take effect immediately.
I HEREBY CERTIFY that the foregoing resolution was passed and adopted by the City Council of the City of Yuba City at a regular meeting thereof held on the 7th day of November, 2023, by the following vote:

Subject: Cooper Market Liquor Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control (ABC) Premise-To-Premise Transfer Application
Recommendation: Adopt a Resolution making a finding of public convenience or necessity for the premise-to-premise transfer of a Type 21 (Off-Sale General) Alcoholic Beverage Control (ABC) License at 759 Reeves Avenue (Cooper Market Liquor).
Fiscal Impact: No direct fiscal impact will result from recommending approval of the proposed Alcoholic Beverage Control application.
Purpose:
Consideration to make a finding of public convenience or necessity for the premise-to-premise transfer of a Type 21 (Off-Sale General) Alcoholic Beverage Control License at 759 Reeves Avenue (Cooper Market Liquor).
Council’s Strategic Goal:
Business Friendly.
Background:
The City has received an application from Charnjit Singh, and Paramjit Kaur who operate Cooper Market Liquor located at 763 Reeves Avenue, which is located on the corner of Cooper, and Reeves Ave. They are requesting a Type 21 (Off-Sale General) premise-to-premise license transfer with the Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control. The application states the applicant currently holds a Type 21 (Off-Sale General) license, which provides for the sale of beer, wine and distilled spirits for consumption off the premises where sold.
The application also states the business has never been suspended from the sale of alcoholic beverages or fined by the Alcoholic Beverage Control Department (ABC) in the last 17 years of operation. The applicant states the reason for changing the license location is because the landlord is increasing the rent significantly at the completion of their current lease agreement. As a result, the applicants have purchased the adjacent lot (759 Reeves Avenue) where they are pursuing constructing a new market location to continue their business.
When ABC receives an application for a location where a high concentration of licenses exist within an existing census tract, and/or a crime rate exceeding 25% of the average, the local
government is required to approve an application before ABC takes final action. In this instance, Cooper Market Liquor’s application states the average number of offenses per district is 1157, while the total number of offenses in the reporting district is 1621, exceeding 120% of the average number of offenses. This location is in Yuba City Police Beat Number Four.
Analysis:
Cooper Market Liquor is open until 10pm every day. The ABC and State Business and Professions Code, Section 23958, states the governing body must determine that the approval of this license would provide public convenience or necessity, in order for the license application to be approved by ABC in this location due to the total number of offenses in the reporting district exceeding 120% of the average number of offenses.
Development Services staff and Police Commander Escheman has reviewed the application and believe that a public convenience is provided through the sale of alcohol at this business location.
Fiscal Impact:
No direct fiscal impact will result from making a finding of public convenience and necessity for the premise-to-premise transfer of a Type 21 (Off-Sale General) Alcoholic Beverage Control License at 759 Reeves Avenue in Yuba City (Cooper Market Liquor).
Alternatives:
Do not make a finding of public convenience and necessity for the premise-to-premise transfer of a Type 21 (Off-Sale General) Alcoholic Beverage Control License at 759 Reeves Avenue in Yuba City (Cooper Market Liquor).
Recommendations:
Adopt a Resolution making a finding of public convenience and necessity for the premise-topremise transfer of a Type 21 (Off-Sale General) Alcoholic Beverage Control (ABC) License at 759 Reeves Avenue in Yuba City (Cooper Market Liquor).
Attachments:
1. Resolution making a finding of public convenience and necessity for the premise-topremise transfer of a Type 21 (Off-Sale General) Alcoholic Beverage Control (ABC) License from 763 Reeves Avenue to 759 Reeves Avenue in Yuba City (Cooper Market Liquor).

Subject: Water Treatment Plant Backwash Flowmeter
Recommendation: Approve a Capital Acquisition of an Endress Hauser clamp-on flowmeter for the backwash valve at the Water Treatment Plant
Fiscal Impact: $26,000 – Account No. 971227-65501 (Recurring WTP & Satellite Facility Improvements)
Purpose:
To replace the existing flowmeter on the backwash valve piping at the Water Treatment Plant (WTP).
Council’s Strategic Goals:
This item addresses the Council’s Strategic Goals of Infrastructure and Public Safety by maintaining public health and safety through the reliable operation of drinking water treatment infrastructure.
Background:
The City’s water and wastewater infrastructure requires a number of flowmeters, which monitor the flow of the various types of water in the system. One of these flowmeters is located at the backwash valve at the WTP, which uses clean water to flush residual untreated water from the system back into the Feather River. Reliable function of the associated flowmeter is critical to monitor and control the pressure and flow required for this process and, ultimately, maintain the integrity of the potable water produced by the WTP.
Analysis:
The flowmeter at the backwash valve has unexpectedly malfunctioned and requires full replacement, which could not be anticipated during the Fiscal Year 23/24 budget cycle.
Public Works has evaluated the equipment and recommends replacement with an Endress Hauser clamp-on flowmeter. This will allow for easy calibration and adjustment once installed, is readily available, and matches the manufacturer of other new flowmeters in the water and wastewater systems for consistency and performance.
Fiscal Impact:
Purchase and installation of the flowmeter, including contingency, is $26,000. There is sufficient funding for this item in CIP Account No. 971227-65501 (Recurring WTP & Satellite Facility Improvements).
Alternatives:
None at this time, as it is necessary for continued safe operation of critical infrastructure.
Recommendation:
Approve a capital acquisition of an Endress Hauser clamp-on flowmeter for the backwash valve at the Water Treatment Plant.

To: Honorable Mayor & Members of the City Council;
From: Public Works Department
Presentation By: Ben Moody, Public Works & Development Services Director Summary
Subject: Proposition 1 Integrated Regional Water Management Round 1 Grant Project 5 (Environmental Document Approval)
Recommendation: Adopt a Resolution adopting a CEQA Class 1 Categorical Exemption for the Proposition 1 Integrated Regional Water Management Round 1 Grant Project 5 – Trash Capture Device in Gilsizer Slough Project (21-18) Fiscal Impact: Minimal staff time associated with developing and filing the Notice of Exemption, which is budgeted for through Capital Improvement Program Account No. 911297-65501
Purpose:
To improve downstream ecosystems connected to Gilsizer Slough by removing pollutants from surface waters and complying with pending State trash capture requirements.
Council's Strategic Goal:
This project addresses City Council's Strategic Goal of Improving Infrastructure by providing stormwater infrastructure in Gilsizer Slough that improves water quality.
Background:
In 2019, Butte County was the lead agency for the North Sacramento Valley Integrated Regional Water Management (NSV IRWM) Region’s Proposition 1 Round 1 grant funding application. Butte County examined various stakeholder’s projects that have been identified in approved Storm Water Resource Plans (SWRP) from various NSV IRWM stakeholders. Two of the City’s SWRP projects were selected to be included in Butte County’s NSV IRWM Proposition 1 Round 1 grant application: Project 4 Gilsizer North Detention Basin Improvement Project and Project 5 Trash Capture Device in Gilsizer Slough Project. The City’s projects were awarded funding by DWR in the amount of $970,700 on July 3, 2020.
Project 5 involves installing a full capture trash capture device to a newly constructed concrete pad at the bottom of Gilsizer Slough downstream of Lincoln Rd. Refer to Attachment 2 for a location map.
On April 5, 2022, Council approved awarding a Professional Services Agreement to West Yost for development of plans and specifications, required permit applications, and other services for the City’s projects.
Analysis:
West Yost is in the process of developing the plans and specifications for Project 5. The design for the project includes construction of a concrete pad as an addition to an existing culvert in Gilsizer Slough where a trash capture device will be installed. The area of the addition to the culvert will be less than 2,500 square feet.
The City needs to provide evidence of complying with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) in order to proceed with various permit applications, including a California Department of Fish and Wildlife 1600 Streambed Alteration Agreement, California Regional Water Quality Control Board Clean Water Act 401 Water Quality Certification, and United State Environmental Protection Agency Clean Water Act 404 permit.
Staff have performed a preliminary environmental assessment of this project and have determined that the Project falls within the Class 1 Categorical Exemption set forth in CEQA Guidelines Section 15301(e)(1), as the Project is defined as a minor addition to existing structures provided that the addition will not result in an increase of more than 2,500 square feet. Further, none of the exceptions to Categorical Exemptions set forth in CEQA Guidelines 15300.2 apply to this project. As such the City adopts a Categorical Exemption per CEQA Guidelines section 15301(e)(1) for this project.
Once permit applications submitted and approved, West Yost can finalize the plans and specifications for the Project. Staff will return to Council at a later date for approval of the plans and specifications and authorization to advertise the Project for bids.
Fiscal Impact:
Minimal staff time associated with developing and filing the Notice of Exemption, which is budgeted for through Capital Improvement Program Account No. 911297-65501.
Alternatives:
Do not adopt the categorical exemption and direct staff to perform additional environmental analysis resulting in a delay of the project and potentially forfeiture of awarded grant funds.
Recommendation:
Adopt a Resolution adopting a CEQA Class 1 Categorical Exemption for the Proposition 1 Integrated Regional Water Management Project 5 Trash Capture Device in Gilsizer Slough Project.

Summary
Subject: Didar S. Bains Park - Storm Drain Connection
Recommendation: Adopt a Resolution which takes the following actions:
A. Adopts a CEQA Class 4 Categorical Exemption
B. Awards a construction contract to North Star Construction and Engineering, Inc. in the amount of $127,676.39 through Sourcewell Contract No. CA-R3-GS02- 123021-NSC, with the finding that it is in the best interest of the City C. Authorizes the City Manager to execute all necessary documents related to the project
Fiscal Impact: $140,444.03 – CIP Account No. 1207 (Harter Parkway Park and Bike Connection)
$140,444.03 – Total Project Cost
$127,676.39 – Construction Amount
$ 12,767.64 – 10% Contingency
Purpose:
To connect Didar S. Bains Park's storm drain piping to the City's storm drainage system.
Council Strategic Goal:
This project addresses two Council Strategic Goals, “Business Friendly” and “Infrastructure.” This project will construct storm drain infrastructure which will allow for conveyance of stormwater from the new park property into the City's storm drainage system. Through the improvements, the City will also be constructing infrastructure that will benefit the future northerly development, Harter North.
Background:
The City's newest park, Didar S. Bains Park (Park), was constructed between April 2022 and August 2023. During the utility installation portion of the Park's construction, it was determined that the Park's storm drain connection to the City's existing storm drainage infrastructure conflicted with future development plans for Harter North. To mitigate any conflicts, the City consulted with Harter North's
design engineers to determine a solution which would best suit both parties. Ultimately, it was determined that the best option would be for a storm junction drain inlet (SJDI) to be constructed, which would serve both the park and the northerly development. This SJDI would then connect to the City's storm drainage infrastructure via an existing manhole on Harter Parkway.
After review, the City determined that the Park would need a storm drain connection before Harter North would be constructed; therefore, the City would construct the new infrastructure. It was also determined based on the amount of work outside of the Park contractor's original contract, the complexity of the work, and the amount of traffic control needed, that it would be best to have a contractor other than the Park contractor to construct improvements.
Analysis:
North Star Construction and Engineering, Inc. (North Star) is a local contractor that the City has worked with numerous times in the past with great results. City staff regularly experiences high levels of competence, professionalism, and quality of work from North Star on projects which they construct for the City. North Star is interested and available to construct the aforementioned storm water infrastructure. In order to expedite the procurement process, Staff recommends utilizing the Sourcewell Cooperative Program (Sourcewell). If approved, and pending acceptable weather North Star would be able to begin the work in late November 2023. Work would likely be completed in December of 2023.
Sourcewell gathers nationwide bids for products and services resulting in time and cost efficiencies through the procurement process, and better purchasing leverage due to a nationwide scope. The City has utilized Sourcewell on various occasions in recent years for purchases and construction contracts, with great results. Some of these include: purchase of playground equipment, purchase of Public Works equipment, design/build contract for the bike park at Didar S. Bains Park, and design/build contract for the Blackburn Talley LED Stadium Lighting Retrofit.
Fiscal Impact:
North Star's Sourcewell contract is $127,676.39 for the proposed scope of work, a 10% construction contingency amount is $12,768, with a total proposed construction budget being $140,444. The project is proposed to be funded through the existing project account: CIP Account No. 1207 (Harter Parkway Park and Bikeway Connection), utilizing remaining project contingency funds. With the close-out of the park contract with Marina Landscapes, there will be sufficient contingency funds remaining in the project account to fund the storm drainage improvements. Staff will coordinate to update and establish encumbrances to fund the proposed project via CIP Account No. 1207.
Environmental:
Staff has performed a preliminary environmental assessment of this project relative to California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) requirements and determined that it falls within the Class 4 Categorical Exemption set forth in CEQA Guidelines Section 15304, as the work involves minor trenching and backfilling, where the surface will be restored. Further, none of the exceptions to Categorical Exemptions set forth in CEQA Guidelines 15300.2 apply to this project.
Alternatives:
Do not award the Sourcewell Contract to North Star, and utilize the standard formal bidding procedures.
This will result in project delays.
Recommendation:
Adopt a Resolution which takes the following actions:
A. Adopts a CEQA Class 4 Categorical Exemption
B. Awards a construction contract to North Star Construction and Engineering, Inc. in the amount of $127,676.39 through Sourcewell Contract No. CA-R3-GS02-123021-NSC, with the finding that it is in the best interest of the City

CITY OF YUBA CITY
STAFF REPORT
Date: November 7, 2023
To: Honorable Mayor & Members of the City Council;
From: Administration Department
Presentation By: Diana Langley, City Manager
Summary
Subject: Public Hearing No. 1 for Updating of City Councilmember District Boundaries for Annexed Property
Recommendation: A. Receive a report from staff on the redistricting process and permissible criteria to be considered to redraw district boundaries; and
B. Conduct a Public Hearing to receive public input on district boundaries to account for property annexed to the City
Fiscal Impact: None
Purpose:
To receive a report on the districting process for annexed property and permissible criteria to be considered to modify district boundaries; and conduct a Public Hearing to receive public input on district boundaries.
Council's Strategic Goal:
Including recently annexed areas into the City Council District Boundaries addresses the City Council's overarching goal of quality of life.
Background:
Prior to the November 2022 election, City Councilmembers were elected at-large in which every voter in the City voted for each member of Council, regardless of where the voter or the candidate is registered to vote in the City. Under a district-based system of elections, the City is divided into districts, candidates may only run for the seat representing the district in which they are registered to vote, and voters may only vote for a candidate from their district. One of the reasons for the transition is that district elections are consistent with the California Voting Rights Act (CVRA), which encourages district elections for communities with a significant population of minority groups.
Between September 21, 2021, and February 1, 2022, the City Council held five public hearings to establish a District-Based System of Elections for members of the City Council. On February 1, 2022, City Council adopted an Ordinance adding Sections 2-9.04, 2-9.05, and 2-9.06 to Chapter 2, Title 9 of the Yuba City Municipal Code to establish a District-Based System of Elections for members of the City
Council. The Ordinance is based on the National Demographics Corporation (NDC) Green Map (NDC Green Map),which is based on data from the 2020 census, and includes election sequencing to transition to a District-Based System of Elections.
Since the adoption of the current boundary maps, there have been significant annexations in the southwest and southern portions of Yuba City, adjacent to Council Districts 4 and 5. The annexed areas are currently primarily vacant agricultural land. The Council District Boundary Maps need to be modified to incorporate the annexed areas and be adopted prior to April 2024.
Analysis:
Process
The City Council typically chooses where the district lines will be drawn every 10 years based on the latest U.S. Census. Between these regular 10-year updates changes to district boundaries are typically not allowed under the Elections Code. However, there is an exception for circumstance here, as new territory has been annexed into the City and the total annexed territory contains less than 25% of the City's population. In such cases the City Council may update the district boundaries to allow for the new members of the community to vote in City elections, etc.
State laws set strict criteria for the updates of the district boundaries in such circumstances.
Specifically the City Council is required to add the new territory "to the nearest existing Council district without changing the boundaries of other Council district boundaries." Even though the criteria for setting the boundaries for annexed property is constrained by State law, the default procedures for redistricting boundaries still apply. Under these procedures the public will have the opportunity to draw and submit district maps for Council's consideration, and the City may develop its own maps for consideration. By law, the City must hold at least four public hearings that enable community members to provide input on the drawing of district maps:
• One Public Hearing will be held to invite public input regarding the composition of the City's voting districts before any draft maps are drawn. This hearing is currently scheduled for November 7, 2023.
• Three Public Hearings will be held to invite public input regarding the composition of the City's proposed modifications to the voting districts after the draft maps are drawn. These hearings are currently scheduled for December 19, 2023, and January 16 and February 6, 2024. • After the Public Hearings, the City Council will introduce an ordinance establishing a map with the modified voting division boundaries scheduled for February 20, 2024, and the ordinance will then be presented for final adoption on March 5, 2024.
Mandatory Criteria for Creating Districts
While public input concerning the composition of the City's voting divisions will be considered, as noted above there are several mandatory criteria that the City must comply with when the actual divisions are created:
1. Any annexed property must be added to the nearest existing Council district; and
2. No other changes to existing Council districts can occur.
Fiscal Impact:
There is no fiscal impact to modifying the boundaries other than staff time to prepare the necessary staff reports and modify the district boundary maps.
Alternatives:
Decline to hold a Public Hearing at this time.
Recommendation:
A. Receive a report from staff on the redistricting process and permissible criteria to be considered to redraw district boundaries; and
B. Conduct a Public Hearing to receive public input on district boundaries.

CITY OF YUBA CITY
STAFF REPORT
Date: November 7, 2023
To: Honorable Mayor & Members of the City Council;
From: Public Works Department
Presentation By: Phil Marler, Deputy Director Public Works - Utilities Summary
Subject: Laboratory Fee Schedule Update
Recommendation: Adopt a Resolution amending the Schedule of Fees and Charges for City Services to update the fees for laboratory services for Fiscal Year 23/24 Fiscal Impact: $30,000 annually
Revenue Account No. 518-44440 (Sewer – Lab Testing)
Direct Transfer from Account No. 7120 (Water Treatment Plant) Direct Transfer from Account No. 8120 (Wastewater Treatment Facility) Purpose:
To adjust laboratory service fees to more accurately recover costs for labor and materials from both internal and commercial customers.
Council’s Strategic Goals:
This item addresses Council’s Strategic Goal of Fiscal Responsibility by ensuring that the City provides laboratory testing and analytical services at a reasonable rate for internal and commercial water and wastewater customers that appropriately funds operations of the Laboratory.
Background:
The City of Yuba City owns and operates the only full-service State of California Environmental Laboratory Accreditation Program (ELAP)-certified laboratory in the Yuba-Sutter region. The Laboratory supports both the Water Treatment Plant and Wastewater Treatment Facility’s sampling and analytical needs to meet state regulations. The City also provides these services to external customers, including individuals in the area with drinking water wells, well-drilling companies, private drinking water systems, and other regional public agencies which do not conduct their own testing.
The current fee schedule for commercial laboratory services is based on a fee study conducted in 2010, which fully evaluated the labor and materials required for each test and the ratio of internal to external services in order to sufficiently recover costs and divide costs appropriately between water rate payers, wastewater rate payers, and commercial customers. The fee schedule update was approved by Council in July 2010 with an annual CPI inflation factor.
In recent years, there have been a number of changes to the Laboratory’s services which are not captured by the current fee schedule structure due to changes in operations, costs, and regulations: the Laboratory has become ELAP-certified in additional tests to expand necessary services; the Laboratory has allowed a few ELAP certifications to elapse due to lack of customer need; the City’s fees for some tests are no longer in-line with industry averages; and the City’s fees for some tests do not align with cost-recovery estimates for labor and materials. It is important that laboratory costs are recovered equitably between all customer types and tests.
Analysis:
Public Works staff has conducted an updated Laboratory Fee Study in order to analyze cost recovery for Laboratory labor, capital, and material expenditures by individual test type and number, with methodology adapted from the 2010 fee study (Attachment 2). The cost recovery identified in the study is the actual costs to the City for a single test of that type, as determined by fixed costs shared across all test types, which are Laboratory operating overhead, administrative and sampling tasks, and capital equipment values, and variable costs for that specific test, which are labor hours and materials required.
As part of the study, staff also reviewed comparable laboratories, service and revenue projections, and Department needs in order to develop an updated set of laboratory tests and fees. The proposed individual service fees were determined based on time and methodology required, labor and materials costs, industry standards, and internal harmony with similar services. The full amended User Fee Schedule X. Laboratory Services is attached to the Resolution as Exhibit 1A.
The laboratory fees, along with other water and wastewater fees, will be reviewed as an item in the ongoing Utilities Rate Study 2024 scope of work. The City’s consultant may recommend further adjustments to the fee schedule as they evaluate the enterprise fund revenue and financial planning, which could be implemented following the Proposition 218 process.
The Department recommends that the new fee schedule be implemented on January 1, 2024. If approved, Public Works staff will conduct outreach to the Laboratory’s major customers to notify them of the changes in prices and available tests.
Fiscal Impact:
The updated fee schedule is projected to increase total test revenue by $30,000, which includes both external commercial customers and internal Water Treatment Plant and Wastewater Treatment Facility testing. The appropriate proportion of water and wastewater enterprise funding for laboratory operations for the following fiscal year is determined by the actual fees and number of tests conducted for each of the treatment plants, as well as the costs for other reporting and analytical support services provided by the Laboratory for each.
The laboratory fee schedule will be adjusted annually for inflation using the February Commercial Price Index, rounded to the nearest dollar.
Alternatives:
Only approve the addition of the new laboratory services and fees and deletion of non-certified services, and keep the laboratory rates for existing services as already adopted in the City’s Fiscal Year 23/24 fee schedule. This schedule is based solely on CPI increases on the 2010 fee study and does not account for the updated cost-recovery needs, alignment with competitor labs, or changes in Laboratory operations, which may impact revenue and customer numbers.
Recommendation:
Adopt a Resolution amending the Schedule of Fees and Charges for City Services to update the fees for laboratory services for Fiscal Year 23/24.

Laboratory Services and conducted analysis on internal and external customer needs, cost recovery estimates, revenue projections, changes in techniques and equipment, and regional comparable laboratory charges to recommend more appropriate cost-recovery fees for existing and new services; and WHEREAS, the recommended changes to the User Fee Schedule are fair and reasonable for commercial and internal customers, provide appropriate cost recovery for the Laboratory operating budget, and require an amendment to the User Fee Schedule.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of Yuba City as follows:
1. The City Council authorizes the Finance Director to amend the Section X. Laboratory Services of the User Fee Schedule for Fiscal Year 23/24 as attached in Exhibit 1A and incorporated herein.
2. The City Council resolves that the amended User Fee Schedule for laboratory testing and analytical services shall take effect on January 1, 2024.
3. The City Council authorizes the Finance Director to apply the Consumer Price Index inflation factor for the month of February to Section X. Laboratory Services annually at the beginning of each fiscal year, rounded to the nearest dollar.
The foregoing Resolution was duly and regularly introduced, passed, and adopted by the City Council of the City of Yuba City at a regular meeting thereof held on the 7th day of November, 2023.

Honorable Mayor and Members of City Council,
The City of Yuba City owns and operates the only full-service State of California Environmental Laboratory Accreditation Program (ELAP)-certified laboratory in the Yuba-Sutter region. The Public Works Department submits the attached fee and cost-recovery analysis for the City’s water and wastewater laboratory services provided by the Laboratory Division, including a proposed laboratory fee schedule. This in-house study has been conducted in a collaborative effort by Public Works Administration and Laboratory staff.
The study has adapted the methodology of the laboratory fee study conducted in 2010 by Inflection Point Solutions of Overland Park, KS, as adopted by City Council on June 15, 2010, in order to evaluate the current cost recovery for each test provided by the Laboratory Division. Cost recovery has been estimated through both fixed costs across all tests, derived from operating overhead, administration, and equipment, and variable costs dependent upon the individual test, derived from the necessary labor and materials. The study also considers changes in technique and equipment, the Laboratory’s current ELAP certifications and expanded or reduced services, and industry standards in comparable regional commercial laboratories.

II. Cost Recovery per Test
III. Projected Revenue per Test
IV. Projected Revenue per Test – Top 10 Most Commonly Requested V. Commercial Lab Survey
VI. Commercial Lab Survey – Top 10 Most Commonly Requested VII. Laboratory Fee Study Cost Summary
VIII. Overhead Cost Detail
IX. Administrative Cost Detail
X. Equipment Utilized for Testing Cost Detail
XI. Labor Cost Detail
XII. Materials Cost Detail
The Department recommends that the proposed fee schedule be implemented on January 1, 2024, in order to best secure cost recovery for laboratory services from commercial, water, and wastewater customers. I submit this study on behalf of the Public Works Department, in the belief that it is an accurate and appropriate fiscal analysis of the laboratory services provided by the City of Yuba City.

CITY OF YUBA CITY
STAFF REPORT
Date: November 7, 2023
To: Honorable Mayor & Members of the City Council;
From: Administration Department
Presentation By: Ciara Wakefield, City Clerk Administrator Summary
Subject: 2024 City Council Meeting Calendar
Recommendation: Cancel the January 2 and August 6, 2024 Regular Council Meetings and provide for Special Workshops to be scheduled as needed
Fiscal Impact: No fiscal impact
Purpose:
To establish the City Council Meeting Calendar for 2024.
Background:
The Yuba City Municipal Code Section 2-1.01 sets the Regular meetings of the City Council to occur on the first and third Tuesday of each month at 6:00 p.m. (5:00 p.m. for any closed session items) in the Council Chambers. Special meetings or workshops may be called at any time by the Mayor or by a majority of the members of the Council.
In order to allow the City Council to determine their schedules in advance and to allow staff to prepare for meetings and workshops more efficiently, it is proposed that Council approve a Council Meeting Calendar for 2024. The proposed calendar is attached for your reference.
Analysis:
2024 provides few scheduling conflicts with City Council Meetings and holidays. The following Regular Council meetings are recommended to be canceled:
• January 2, 2024
City Hall offices are typically closed the last week in December for approved Holiday Closure, the time during which agenda preparation usually occurs. For this reason, the first meeting in January has been canceled.
• August 6, 2024
City Council has the option of participating in National Night Out events on the first Tuesday in August in place of the scheduled Council meeting. National Night Out is designed to heighten crime and drug
prevention awareness and to provide an opportunity to promote and celebrate police-community partnerships in crime prevention efforts. This event is well received by the community.
Special Meetings
• December 10, 2024 – Election Results
With General Municipal Elections being held on November 5, 2024, for two seats on the City Council, City Clerk, and City Treasurer, the California Election Code, Section 10262(b), requires that the City Council declare elected the persons for whom the highest numbers of votes were cast for each office.
Special Workshops
Special Workshops will be scheduled as needed. At this point, the following Workshop is proposed for the 2024 meeting schedule:
• May 28, 2024 – Budget Study Workshop
Discuss Fiscal Year 2024-2025 Budget Planning and Projections Other Considerations
• April 16, 2024 - Cap to Cap
The annual Cap-to-Cap conference is April 13-17, 2024. With this in mind, Council should consider whether a quorum will be available for the meeting on April 16, 2024 and advise staff whether this meeting should remain on the schedule.
Alternatives:
Regular meetings are set by the Municipal Code, however if needed, meetings can be canceled by the Council with sufficient notice, and special meetings can be scheduled as needed.
Fiscal Impact:
No fiscal impact
Recommendation:
Cancel the January 2 and August 6, 2024 Regular Council Meetings and provide for Special Workshops to be scheduled as needed.
