Agenda Item 3

CITY OF YUBA CITY

STAFF REPORT
Date: September 2, 2025
To: Honorable Mayor & Members of the City Council;
From: Police Department
Presentation By: Brent Slade, Police Commander
Summary
Subject: Proposed Amendment to AB 481 Military Equipment Use Policy Recommendation: A. Adopt a Resolution Approving an amendment to the AB 481 Military Equipment Use Policy to remove one (1) DJI Matrice 350 RTK Unmanned Aircraft System (UAS) and replace it with two (2) Autel Evo Max 4T UAS devices B. Approve the use of COPS Grant funding previously allocated by the City Council for the DJI Matrice 350 RTK to instead be used for the purchase of two (2) Autel Evo Max 4T UAS devices
Fiscal Impact: There is no additional fiscal impact. The purchase of the two Autel Evo Max 4T drones will be funded through the COPS Grant funds previously allocated for the DJI Matrice 350 RTK.

Purpose:

To request City Council approval for an amendment to the adopted AB 481 Military Equipment Use Policy to remove one UAS model from the inventory and replace it with two more cost-effective and operationally appropriate system.

Council's Strategic Goal:

This item supports the City Council's Strategic Goal of Public Safety.

Background:

Assembly Bill 481 (AB 481) requires law enforcement agencies to obtain City Council approval, via ordinance, prior to acquiring or modifying the use policy related to military equipment, which includes unmanned aerial systems (UAS). The Yuba City Police Department maintains an AB 481 Military Equipment Use Policy as required by state law.

In a prior action, the City Council approved the use of COPS Grant funding to purchase a DJI Matrice 350 RTK UAS, included as Item #3 in the current AB 481 report. However, when staff went to purchase the UAS the company would not honor the quote and requested additional funding to cover the increase in costs related to the tariffs and their profit margin.

The proposed amendment to the AB 481 Report is:

Page 16 of 232 ends

Remove:
• DJI Matrice 350 RTK
Cost: $30,980.00
Quantity: 1
Description: Weighs 6.47 kg; 2.7 kg payload capacity; 55-minute flight time; 7,700-foot ceiling; equipped with infrared, spotlight, and zoom capabilities up to 1,000 meters.

Add:
• Autel Evo Max 4T
Cost: $13,135.98 each
Quantity: 2
Description: Weighs 3.62 pounds; 3-pound payload capacity; 42-minute flight time; 13,124-foot ceiling; includes 4K camera with 10x optical zoom and long-range Skylink 3.0 transmission.

Analysis:

The Autel Evo Max 4T offers improved performance in several key areas, including weight, flight elevation, and camera technology, while significantly reducing unit cost. The acquisition of two Autel Evo Max 4T units ensures operational redundancy and greater deployment flexibility across patrol and investigative operations.

The total cost of the two Autel UAS units is $26,271.96, which is less than the originally approved DJI Matrice 350 RTK purchase.

Fiscal Impact:

There is no additional fiscal impact. The purchase of the two Autel Evo Max 4T drones will be funded through the COPS Grant funds previously allocated for the DJI Matrice 350 RTK.

Alternatives:
-Find alternative UAS
-Reject the proposed amendment to the AB 481 report
Recommendation:

A. Adopt a Resolution approving an amendment to the AB 481 Military Equipment Use Policy to remove one (1) DJI Matrice 350 RTK Unmanned Aircraft System (UAS) and replace it with two (2) Autel Evo Max 4T UAS devices
B. Approve the use of COPS Grant funding previously allocated by the City Council for the DJI Matrice 350 RTK to instead be used for the purchase of two (2) Autel Evo Max 4T UAS devices.

CITY OF YUBA CITY

STAFF REPORT
Date: September 2, 2025
To: Honorable Mayor & Members of the City Council;
From: Finance/IT Department
Presentation By: Brian Hansen, IT Manager
Summary
Subject: Citywide Network Switch Upgrade
Recommendation: Adopt a Resolution awarding the purchase to ePlus Technology, Inc. for the procurement of HPE/Aruba network switches and Wi-Fi access points in the amount of $211,593 utilizing the NCPA contract #01-170 with the finding that it is in the best interest of the City
Fiscal Impact: $211,593 - Account No. 6630-69201 (Technology Replacement-ISF, Equipment) Purpose:

To purchase and deploy new network switches and Wi-Fi access points for departments throughout the City.

Council's Strategic Goal:

This item addresses City Council's Strategic Goals of fiscal responsibility, infrastructure and Public Safety. This item addresses these goals by creating a secure and reliable city network that allows employees to work at peak efficiency to provide critical services to the public.

Background:

The Information Technology Division maintains a metropolitan area network connecting all city facilities. The backbone of this network are the switches and Wi-Fi access points that connect all computers throughout the city. The city employs HPE/Aruba network switches and Wi-Fi access points to achieve this. These devices connect over both fiber and wireless technologies to connect all sites in a secure and reliable network. Network switches and Wi-Fi access points are replaced every eight years as part of the city's technology replacement plan. Funds are collected as part of the Information Technology Internal Service Fund (ISF) and appropriated during the city's yearly budget process.

Analysis:

Staff have identified the equipment due for replacement and worked with ePlus Technology, Inc. out of Herndon, Virginia to identify models of equipment best suited for the city's applications. Due to city staff's deep knowledge and experience with HPE/Aruba networking equipment, it was determined the best option was to stay with HPE/Aruba networking equipment and replace the aging equipment with

Page 74 of 232 ends

models similar to ones already in use by the city. With the make and models identified, staff determined that the most cost-effective means for acquiring the equipment was to utilize the National Cooperative Purchasing Alliance (NCPA) Contract #01-170 - Advanced Technology Solutions Aggregator. ePlus Technology is an approved and authorized vendor of SYNNEX Corporation, and has a long and trusted history of working with the city. Equipment being replaced will be sold on the city's online auction site, GovDeals.com with proceeds going to replenish the Technology Replacement ISF.

Cities may purchase goods or services through “piggybacking,” which allows them to use pricing and terms from contracts already competitively bid and awarded, as permitted under Section 9-8 of the City’s Purchasing Policies and Procedures.

The HPE/Aruba networking equipment has been competitively solicited by NCPA, and negotiated prices for equipment are reasonable and on par with previous projects of a similar size undertaken by other public agencies. Staff’s recommendation is to “piggyback” on NCPA’s Contract #01-170, as is allowed under the City’s Purchasing Policies and Procedures, to capitalize on the cost savings of the nationwide contract.

Note that the NCPA Contract #01-170 is located at: https://www.omniapartners.com/suppliers/tdsynnex/public-sector/contract-documents#contract-1957 Fiscal Impact:

Additional appropriations are not being requested nor are they necessary. Sufficient budget funds are currently available as requested as part of FY 2025/2026 adopted budget. Costs will come out of account 6630-69201, Technology Replacement ISF, Equipment.

Alternatives:

1. Direct staff to prepare a formal request for quotes and open up the purchase to all vendors and resellers.

2. Do nothing, continue to use existing equipment.

Recommendation:

Adopt a Resolution awarding the purchase to ePlus Technology, Inc. for the procurement of HPE/Aruba network switches and Wi-Fi access points in the amount of $211,593 utilizing the NCPA contract #01-170 with the finding that it is in the best interest of the City Attachments:

CITY OF YUBA CITY

STAFF REPORT
Date: September 2, 2025
To: Honorable Mayor & Members of the City Council;
From: Community Services Department
Presentation By: Ernesto Hernandez, Parks & Grounds Superintendent Summary
Subject: Lighting & Landscape Maintenance District No. 2 Zone A Budget Allocation Recommendation: Adopt a Resolution authorizing the Finance Director to appropriate $26,840 from available reserves to Lighting and Landscape No. 2, Zone A (Fund 242), Account No. 6130-63684 (Spec O&M Landscape)
Fiscal Impact: There is no fiscal impact to the general fund Purpose:

To allocate funds in order to provide tree trimming to the area of Plumas Blvd, B St, and Percy Ave.

Council's Strategic Goal:

This addresses the City Council's Strategic Goal of improving and maintaining the City's Infrastructure.

Background:

The City annually levies and collects special assessments in order to maintain and service landscaping and lighting improvements that provide special benefit to the parcels identified in Landscape and Lighting Maintenance District No. 2 Zone A. If the total budget is not used within the year, it is transferred to a reserve fund where it is held until needed.

Analysis:

The trees on Plumas Blvd, B St, and Percy Ave are within Landscape and Lighting Maintenance District No. 2 Zone A and require a Class Two pruning. Class Two pruning is done to maintain a tree’s structure, health, and appearance, especially in areas where trees interact with people, property, and infrastructure. It's broader than fine pruning and includes removal of: dead, diseased, or broken branches, branches that interfere with structures or traffic, crossing or rubbing branches as well as some live branches to improve structure or clearance. Staff will use the City's current tree maintenance service contractor, Richard's Tree Service, for this project.

Fiscal Impact:

The Landscape Maintenance District Budget Analysis shows a projection of the FY 25/26 Operating

Page 86 of 232 ends

Reserve for Landscape and Lighting Maintenance District No. 2 Zone A to be $57,702. This will give us the amount we need for the trimming and still have funding left in our operating reserves. There is no fiscal impact to the general fund.

Total - $26,840
$24,440 - Quote to trim 61 trees
$2,440 - 10% contigency
Alternatives:

1. Direct staff not to use the reserves and fund the project with other funds.

2. Direct staff not to proceed with tree trimming.

3. Direct Staff to void the City's citywide tree maintenance service contract with Richard's Tree Service and proceed with an informal bid process for additional quotes.

Recommendation:

Adopt a Resolution authorizing the Finance Director to appropriate $26,840 from available reserves to Lighting and Landscape No. 2, Zone A (Fund 242), Account No. 6130-63684 (Spec O&M Landscape) Attachments:

CITY OF YUBA CITY

STAFF REPORT
Date: September 2, 2025
To: Honorable Mayor & Members of the City Council;
From: Public Works
Presentation By: Joshua Wolffe, Public Works Director
Summary
Subject: City Welcome Signs Final Design, Fabrication, and Installation (Contingency Increase)
Recommendation: Adopt a Resolution authorizing an increase in the contingency of $31,949.82 with a finding that it is in the best interest of the City
Fiscal Impact: None at this time. There are sufficient funds within CIP Account No. 1294 (City Entrance Signs) to fund this request.

Purpose:

To modify the existing contract providing for the installation of new City Welcome Signs.

Council Strategic Goal:

This item supports the City Council's overall Strategic Goal to enhance the Quality of Life for the City.

Background:

Yuba City has two welcome signs, one located at the southwest intersection of Township Road / State Route 20 and the other approximately 1,100 feet southeast of the Bogue Road / State Route 99 intersection.

Due to disrepair, the current signage was removed from their base foundations.

In 2023, Yuba City obtained a Community Design Grant from the Sacramento Area Council of Governments (SACOG) in the amount of $100,000 to enhance the signs.

In December 2023, a Call for Artists was distributed in coordination with the Yuba Sutter Arts Council, Yuba Sutter Chamber of Commerce, and Yuba City Unified School District resulting in ten (10) design concept submissions being received.

In February 2024, the City Council established an Ad Hoc Committee to review the submissions and select finalists. The Ad Hoc Committee was steered by Councilmember Kirchner and Councilmember Pasquale with representatives from the Planning Commission (Justine Gill), Senior Commission (Michael McFarlane), Parks & Recreation Commission (Staci Howell), and the Youth Commission (Maya Sangha). In April 2024, the Ad Hoc Committee met to review the submissions based on creativity, alignment with City branding and guidelines, aesthetic appeal, relevance to the community, feasibility of implementation, and overall impression. Three finalists were moved forward in the selection process. On May 21, 2024, the City Council selected a winning design concept with the winner, Raveena Sroya, being recognized at the July 2, 2024,

City Council meeting.

The City issued a Request for Proposals for Final Design, Fabrication, and Installation of the City Welcome Signs in August 2024, resulting in three proposals being received. A review committee consisting of staff from Public Works Engineering, Development Services Planning, and Administration selected Square Signs LLC, dba Front Signs of Burbank, CA (Front Signs) as the top-rated proposal. On November 5, 2024, Council awarded a Professional Services Agreement to Front Signs for the final design, fabrication and installation of the City Welcome Signs.

Analysis:

The agreement with Front Signs calls for the Welcome Signs to be designed, fabricated, and installed based on the requirements described in the request for proposals and the proposal submitted by Front Signs.

Through the design process, the City requested the following changes to the project:
• Fully route out the sky in the sign design
• Back-illuminate "WELCOME" letters
• Back-illuminate raceway
• Modify decorative stone to resemble existing signs
• Relocate the south sign approximately 800 feet south
• Install new footing and demolish/dispose of existing footing • Adjust thickness of new footing to accommodate revised grades and improve visibility The changes described above are extra work and Front Signs is entitled to additional compensation for incorporating the City's desired changes. Front Signs has submitted change order requests and staff have verified that the amounts being requested are reasonable based on industry standards.

Council previously authorized a contract amount of $80,882.70, plus a contingency of $20,220.68 (25%), for a total of $101,103.38. The total cost of the aforementioned change orders is $52,170.50, creating a $31,949.82 shortfall between the Council-authorized contract and contingency amounts. In order to execute the necessary change orders, Council must authorize a contingency increase in the amount of $31,949.82 Fiscal Impact:

None at this time. There are sufficient funds within CIP Account No. 1294 (City Entrance Signs) to fund this request.

Alternatives:

A. Council could direct staff to construct the project as originally proposed, resulting in less aesthetically pleasing signs that will be in conflict with future development.

B. Council could abandon the project, compensating Front Signs for their design activities to-date and foregoing the SACOG grant funds.

Recommendation:

Adopt a Resolution authorizing an increase in the contingency of $31,949.82 with a finding that it is in the best interest of the City.

To: Honorable Mayor & Members of the City Council;
From: Public Works
Presentation By: Joshua Wolffe, Public Works Director
Summary
Subject: 2024-2025 Grand Jury Report Response
Recommendation: Approve the response to the 2024-2025 Sutter County Grand Jury Final Report regarding school zone safety
Fiscal Impact: Minor staff costs associated with preparing response document Purpose:

To respond to the 2024-2025 Sutter County Grand Jury Final Report in accordance with state penal codes.

Council’s Strategic Goal:

This item relates to the Council's Strategic Goals of Infrastructure and Public Safety.

Background:

On July 17, 2025, the City received the 2024-2025 Grand Jury Final Report from the Superior Court of California, County of Sutter (Attachment 2). The report summarizes an investigation of traffic congestion affecting three local elementary schools: Bridge Street Elementary, Tierra Buena Elementary, and Franklin Elementary schools. Jurisdictional boundaries and responsible parties for these schools are as follows:
• Bridge Street Elementary - Entirely within City limits and jurisdiction • Tierra Buena Elementary - Within City limits, some areas north and east of the school zone are in Sutter County limits, and fall under Sutter County Jurisdiction. • Franklin Elementary - Outside City limits and jurisdiction.

Based upon jurisdictional boundaries, the Grand Jury required the City to provide responses to the following recommendations:

R2: The Sutter County Grand Jury recommends that the Yuba City Council instruct the Yuba City Police Chief to increase enforcement of traffic and off-street parking violations along Butte House Road and Villa Avenue, bordering Tierra Buena Elementary School to the north and east respectively, that

Page 103 of 232 ends

occur during the school’s drop-off and pick-up times. A warning may be first issued to parents of the school’s students but traffic and parking violation enforcement should begin by the beginning of the 2025-2026 school year.

R4: The Sutter County Grand Jury recommends the Sutter County Board of Supervisors and Yuba City Council adhere to and update relevant local traffic codes to include standardized traffic signage for all schools, including upgrading low-visibility signs to solar-powered warning signs placed for oncoming traffic by January 1, 2026.

R5: The Sutter County Grand Jury recommends the Board of Supervisors and the Yuba City Council to direct the Sutter County Development Services and Yuba City Public Works respectively to update maintenance procedures for solar powered school traffic signs to include regular foliage trimming which blocks solar panels used for solar-powered signs by January 1, 2026.

R7: The Sutter County Grand Jury recommends that the Sutter County Board of Supervisors and the Yuba City Council direct the Sutter County Development Services and Yuba City Public Works Director, respectively, to conduct and complete “Blue Zone” studies for Yuba City Unified and Sutter County Schools to improve community health surrounding those schools by 2027.

Analysis:

The Grand Jury made the recommendations above with a requirement for the City to respond within 90 days. Staff has prepared a response for Council consideration and approval (Exhibit A). Per the City response, the City has responded to each of the four (4) recommendations.

Fiscal Impact:

Minor staff costs associated with preparing response document.

RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF YUBA CITY APPROVING THE RESPONSE TO THE 2024-2025 GRAND JURY FINAL REPORT

FROM THE SUPERIOR COURT OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA, COUNTY OF

SUTTER REGARDING ROAD CONDITIONS AND MAINTENANCE IN THE CITY WHEREAS, on July 17, 2025, the City received the 2024-2025 Grand Jury Final Report from the Superior Court of the State of California, County of Sutter, which summarized an investigation of traffic congestion affecting three local elementary schools; and,

David I Ashby, Presiding Judge
Sutter County Superior Court
1175 Civic Center Boulevard
Yuba City, CA 95993
RE: Response to 2024-2025 Sutter County Grand Jury Final Report Honorable Judge Ashby,
This letter is the official consolidated response of the City of Yuba City (City) regarding the Grand Jury Report entitled, “Safer Streets – Safer Kids.”
Grand Jury Recommendations:

R2: The Sutter County Grand Jury recommends that the Yuba City Council instruct the Yuba City Police Chief to increase enforcement of traffic and off-street parking violations along Butte House Road and Villa Avenue, bordering Tierra Buena Elementary School to the north and east respectively, that occur during the school’s drop-off and pick-up times. A warning may be first issued to parents of the school’s students, but traffic and parking violation enforcement should begin by the beginning of the 2025-2026 school year.

City Response:

This recommendation has been implemented. The Yuba City Police Department communicates well with Yuba City Unified School District as well as independent schools to regularly target traffic related problems at all the schools (14 total, excluding preschools) in our jurisdiction. The Yuba City Police Department has two School Resource Officers assigned to the schools that also assist our Traffic and Patrol Units with this effort. The Police Department has a Student Driver Awareness Program that is run early in the school year, which targets student drivers near the High Schools. If a student is stopped and cited for a violation near the school, they have the option to attend an educational class in lieu of the citation going to the courts.

Since the beginning of the 2025-2026 school year, efforts have been put towards Tierra Buena School and the issues surrounding it, as staff time allows with our limited resources. Villa Ave. to the north and Butte House Rd. on the north side of Tierra Buena School lie in the Sutter County Sheriff’s Department jurisdiction. City Municipal Codes do not apply in these areas. California Vehicle Code sections violated in these areas, however, can be enforced.

R4: The Sutter County Grand Jury recommends the Sutter County Board of Supervisors and Yuba City Council adhere to and update relevant local traffic codes to include standardized traffic signage for all schools, including upgrading low-visibility signs to solar-powered warning signs placed for oncoming traffic by January 1, 2026.

City Response:

This recommendation will not be implemented as it is not warranted. The City does not create local traffic codes for standardized school signage or other locations. The City designs improvement projects based on the most current version of the California Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (CA MUTCD). The CA MUTCD is the State’s standard for traffic signs, road markings, and traffic signals. It is developed by the California

Page 109 of 232 ends

Department of Transportation (Caltrans) and is based on the national MUTCD but tailored for California’s specific needs.

Further, the City cannot commit to upgrading all standard school signs to solar-powered warning signs by January 1, 2026. The cost of materials is nearly $3,000 per sign (not including design and installation) and the City does not currently have a Capital Improvement Project programmed to fund such improvements. The City can commit to continual pursuit of grants which would provide funding for safety improvements (as warranted) at area schools, and creating upgrades as funding becomes available. Further, the City has multiple grant-funded projects which will create safety improvements in 2025.

The City’s “Citywide Sign Audit and Upgrade Project” utilized the City’s Systemic Safety Analysis Report (SSAR) to acquire grant funding from the Highway Safety Improvements Program (HSIP) for improvements. This project audited all City-owned signs within City limits in 2024. Through the audit project it was determined that 2,000 signs in City limits are out of compliance with the CA MUTCD. The project will replace the out-of-compliance signs. Construction is anticipated to begin in mid-to-late 2025.

The City’s “Pedestrian Safety Crosswalk Upgrades Project” also utilized the City’s SSAR to apply for HSIP Funding for improvements. This project will install 1.59 miles of crosswalk striping, 2 miles of traffic striping, and upgrade 42 curb ramps to ADA compliance. Most of these improvements will be in school zones. School areas to receive improvements include April Lane Elementary, King Avenue Elementary, Gray Avenue Middle School, River Valley High School, Park Avenue Elementary, and Yuba City High School.

R5: The Sutter County Grand Jury recommends the Board of Supervisors and the Yuba City Council to direct the Sutter County Development Services and Yuba City Public Works respectively to update maintenance procedures for solar powered school traffic signs to include regular foliage trimming which blocks solar panels used for solar-powered signs by January 1, 2026.

City Response:

This recommendation will not be implemented because it is not reasonable. The City has limited maintenance staff for sign and electrical maintenance. Additionally, some of the locations have foliage from private properties covering the subject panels.

The City will provide maintenance and repairs on an as-needed basis, on signs within City right-of-way when staff are available to perform the work. In the cases involving foliage from private properties blocking panels, the City will coordinate with the property owners to have foliage trimmed in a reasonable timeline

Page 110 of 232 ends

R7: The Sutter County Grand Jury recommends that the Sutter County Board of Supervisors, and the Yuba City Council direct the Sutter County Development Services and Yuba City Public Works Director respectively, to conduct and complete “Blue Zone” studies for Yuba City Unified and Sutter County Schools to improve community health surrounding those schools by 2027.

City Response:

The recommendation has been implemented. The City of Yuba City’s Public Works Department has previously developed multiple plans which have goals of improving community safety, accessibility and promoting active transportation. These plans include:
2011 Bicycle Master Plan, 2012 ADA Transition Plan, 2020 Systemic Safety Analysis Report, 2020 Safe Routes to School Plan, and the 2023 Local Roadway Safety Plan. Further, the City is currently working with a consultant to develop an Active Transportation Plan, which will be a holistic plan that recommends safety and connectivity improvements for pedestrians and cyclists. All the aforementioned plans have been adopted by City Council and have been utilized by City staff to pursue eligible grant funds, construct safety improvements for pedestrians and cyclists, which ultimately would promote healthier and safer travel options for pedestrians, cyclists, and other modes of transportation within the City.

With respect to Blue Zones: In pursuit of the aforementioned grant funds, the City will typically request and receive support letters from Blue Zones. The City has met with Blue Zones and will gladly collaborate with them on their future efforts to further improve health and safety in the City.

The City Council will also direct that a copy of this response be placed on file with the City Clerk.

CITY OF YUBA CITY

STAFF REPORT
Date: September 2, 2025
To: Honorable Mayor & Members of the City Council;
From: Public Works
Presentation By: Joshua Wolffe, Public Works Director
Summary
Subject: Chima Ranch Subdivision (Annexation #9 of property in CFD 2021-1) Recommendation: Adopt a Resolution annexing a certain area, Chima Ranch Subdivision, within the City Limits into an existing Community Facilities District (CFD No. 2021-1) to fund municipal services, and filing said Resolution, along with the Ninth Amendment to the Notice of Special Tax Lien, in the office of County Recorder of the County of Sutter
Fiscal Impact: This CFD annexation will provide $526.14 per single family unit and $383.77 per multi-family residential unit annually, with provisions for inflation Purpose:

To include new residential development in a Community Facilities District (CFD) to pay for impacts to City Services.

Council’s Strategic Goals:

This item addresses the City Council’s Strategic Goal of operating government in a fiscally responsible and responsive manner.

Background:

The City's adopted policy and Project Conditions of Approval for new residential development include a requirement that the development pay for its share of operations and/or maintenance for police, fire, parks, drainage, and ongoing street maintenance costs. On December 14, 2022, the Planning Commission approved Tentative Map SM 22-07, Chima Ranch, to subdivide 14.98 acres into 82 residential parcels including 2 multi-family parcels located on the west side of Sanborn Road immediately west of the intersection of Pebble Beach Drive and Sanborn Road. Planning Commission Condition of Approval No. 43 contains the requirement to pay for operations and/or maintenance for police, fire, parks, drainage, and ongoing street maintenance costs.

The Mello-Roos Community Facilities Act of 1982 (Act) provides a mechanism for cities to form CFDs in order to finance the provision of certain municipal services. The types of services that may be provided by a CFD are as follows:

Page 130 of 232 ends

1. Police

2. Fire

3. Recreation and Library

4. Maintenance of parks, parkways and open space

5. Maintenance of Roadways

6. Flood and storm protection services

7. Hazardous substance removal or remediation
On May 18, 2021, Council adopted Resolution 21-047 establishing policies related to CFDs for services. At this same meeting, Council adopted Resolution 21-048 stating its intention to establish City of Yuba City Community Facilities District 2021-1 (Municipal Services) (CFD 2021-1), authorize the levy of a special tax within the district, and authorize the annexation of future territory into the future annexation area by unanimous written approval.

On July 6, 2021, Council voted the Initial Property (Dunn Ranch Estates – Unit 1 Subdivision [56 residential lots] at the southeast corner of Royo Ranchero Drive and Monroe Drive) to be part of CFD 2021-1 and subject to the special taxes therein. Council also voted to include a Future Annexation Area. The Future Annexation Area consists of several undeveloped, residential zoned properties generally in the western and southern Yuba City Urbanized Area. The Future Annexation Area allows new property owners to annex to the district by unanimous written consent, which streamlines the CFD annexation process.

Analysis:

The Developer of Chima Ranch Subdivision has executed an Unanimous Approval of Annexation to a Community Facilities District (CFD 2021-1) to satisfy this condition. Chima Ranch Subdivision will be the ninth property to annex to CFD 2021-1 (Annexation No. 9), and will be subject to the special taxes therein.

In Resolution 21-048, Council directed the preparation of the Report for CFD 2021-1 to show the services to be provided in CFD 2021-1. The Hearing Report for CFD 2021-1 follows the same methodology used in the formation of CFD 2017-1, which initially established a maximum levy of $425 annually per single family residential unit with an escalation factor equal to the percentage escalation of the City’s combined Police and Fire Department budgets, up to a maximum escalation of 4 percent. The current levy in fiscal year 2025/2026 is $526.14 annually per single family residential unit and $383.77 annually per multi-family residential unit, which will be subject to future escalation in accordance with the rate and method of apportionment of the special tax.

A Notice of Special Tax Lein is to be recorded concurrently with the boundary map (Annexation No. 9 – Chima Ranch Subdivision) in the Office of the County Recorder for the County of Sutter, State of California. The lien of the Special Tax is a continuing lien which shall secure each annual levy of the Special Tax within the area of Annexation No. 9 (Chima Ranch Subdivision).

Fiscal Impact:

A total of 82 residential parcels are contained in the Chima Ranch Subdivision resulting in a total current annual levy of $43,626.28, based on fiscal year 2025/2026 rates. The developer is responsible for covering the costs of annexing to the CFD.

Alternatives:

Page 131 of 232 ends

Do not adopt a resolution annexing Chima Ranch Subdivision into CFD No. 2021-1 to fund Municipal Services, and direct staff on other acceptable means of assuring this development contributes its fair share of impacts to services.

Recommendation:

Adopt a Resolution annexing a certain area, Chima Ranch Subdivision, within the City Limits into an existing Community Facilities District (CFD No. 2021-1) to fund municipal services, and filing said Resolution, along with the Ninth Amendment to the Notice of Special Tax Lien, in the office of County Recorder of the County of Sutter.

7. Authority Warranted. The Property Owner warrants to the City that the presentation of this Unanimous Approval, any votes, consents or waivers contained herein, and other actions for the annexation of the Property to the CFD and the levy of special taxes within the area of the Property shall not constitute events of default or delinquencies under any existing or proposed financing documents entered into or to be entered into by the Property Owner for the Property, including any “due-onencumbrance” clauses under any existing security instruments secured by the Property.

8. Due Diligence and Disclosures. The Property Owner agrees to cooperate with the City and its attorneys and consultants and to provide all information and disclosures required by the City and/or the Act about the Special Taxes to purchasers of the Property or any part of it.

E. FUTURE ANNEXATIONS
It is anticipated that additional properties will be annexed to CFD No. 2021‐1 from time to time.

The property to be annexed will be assigned to the appropriate Maximum Special Tax rate for the Tract or Tracts when annexed, as pursuant to California Government Code section 53339 et seq.

In certain cases, it may be determined that a potential property to be annexed may require a higher cost to provide City services than other areas of the City (e.g., if it possesses a large quantity of City- owned infrastructure that requires maintenance). As each annexation is proposed, the City may elect to prepare an analysis to determine the annual cost for providing Services, and may incorporate unique zones with varying Maximum Special Tax rates. Such zones may be referred to by reference to a letter or number on the boundary map, and adjust the rates in Table 1 of such annexation to reflect the applicable rates.

The City may adopt a future annexation area in the future and allow for annexation by unanimous written consent.

F. INTERPRETATION OF SPECIAL TAX FORMULA
The City reserves the right to make minor administrative and technical changes to this document that do not materially affect the rate and method of apportioning the Special Tax. In addition, the interpretation and application of any section of this document shall be left to the City's discretion. Interpretations may be made by the City by ordinance or resolution for purposes of clarifying any vagueness or ambiguity in this Rate and Method of Apportionment of Special Tax.

G. TERM
The Special Tax shall be collected in perpetuity.

H. APPEALS
Any property owner claiming that the amount or application of the Special Tax is not correct may file a written notice of appeal with the Administrator not later than twelve months after having paid the first installment of the Special Tax that is disputed. The Administrator shall promptly review the appeal, and if necessary, meet with the property owner, consider written and oral evidence regarding the amount of the Special Tax, and rule on the appeal. If the decision of the Administrator requires that the Special Tax for an Assessor’s Parcel be modified or changed in favor of the property owner, a cash refund shall not be made but an adjustment shall be made to the Special Tax on that Assessor’s Parcel in the subsequent Fiscal Year(s) to compensate for the overpayment of the Special Tax.

E. FUTURE ANNEXATIONS
It is anticipated that additional properties will be annexed to CFD No. 2021‐1 from time to time.

The property to be annexed will be assigned to the appropriate Maximum Special Tax rate for the Tract or Tracts when annexed, as pursuant to California Government Code section 53339 et seq.

In certain cases, it may be determined that a potential property to be annexed may require a higher cost to provide City services than other areas of the City (e.g., if it possesses a large quantity of City- owned infrastructure that requires maintenance). As each annexation is proposed, the City may elect to prepare an analysis to determine the annual cost for providing Services, and may incorporate unique zones with varying Maximum Special Tax rates. Such zones may be referred to by reference to a letter or number on the boundary map, and adjust the rates in Table 1 of such annexation to reflect the applicable rates.

The City may adopt a future annexation area in the future and allow for annexation by unanimous written consent.

F. INTERPRETATION OF SPECIAL TAX FORMULA
The City reserves the right to make minor administrative and technical changes to this document that do not materially affect the rate and method of apportioning the Special Tax. In addition, the interpretation and application of any section of this document shall be left to the City's discretion. Interpretations may be made by the City by ordinance or resolution for purposes of clarifying any vagueness or ambiguity in this Rate and Method of Apportionment of Special Tax.

G. TERM
The Special Tax shall be collected in perpetuity.

H. APPEALS
Any property owner claiming that the amount or application of the Special Tax is not correct may file a written notice of appeal with the Administrator not later than twelve months after having paid the first installment of the Special Tax that is disputed. The Administrator shall promptly review the appeal, and if necessary, meet with the property owner, consider written and oral evidence regarding the amount of the Special Tax, and rule on the appeal. If the decision of the Administrator requires that the Special Tax for an Assessor’s Parcel be modified or changed in favor of the property owner, a cash refund shall not be made but an adjustment shall be made to the Special Tax on that Assessor’s Parcel in the subsequent Fiscal Year(s) to compensate for the overpayment of the Special Tax.

CITY OF YUBA CITY

STAFF REPORT
Date: September 2, 2025
To: Honorable Mayor & Members of the City Council;
From: Public Works
Presentation By: Joshua Wolffe, Public Works Director
Summary
Subject: West Sanborn Unit 2 Subdivision (Annexation #10 of property in CFD 2021- 1)
Recommendation: Adopt a Resolution annexing a certain area, West Sanborn Unit 2 Subdivision, within the City Limits into an existing Community Facilities District (CFD No. 2021-1) to fund municipal services, and filing said Resolution, along with the Tenth Amendment to the Notice of Special Tax Lien, in the office of County Recorder of the County of Sutter Fiscal Impact: This CFD annexation will provide $526.14 per single family unit annually, with provisions for inflation
Purpose:

To include new residential development in a Community Facilities District (CFD) to pay for impacts to City Services.

Council’s Strategic Goals:

This item addresses the City Council’s Strategic Goal of operating government in a fiscally responsible and responsive manner.

Background:

The City's adopted policy and Project Conditions of Approval for new residential development include a requirement that the development pay for its share of operations and/or maintenance for police, fire, parks, drainage, and ongoing street maintenance costs. On November 10, 2021, the Planning Commission approved Tentative Map SM 19-02, West Sanborn Unit 2 Subdivision, to subdivide 8.29 acres into 39 residential parcels located located at the northwest corner of Sanborn Road and Bogue Road. Planning Commission Condition of Approval No. 48 contains the requirement to pay for operations and/or maintenance for police, fire, parks, drainage, and ongoing street maintenance costs.

The Mello-Roos Community Facilities Act of 1982 (Act) provides a mechanism for cities to form CFDs in order to finance the provision of certain municipal services. The types of services that may

Page 161 of 232 ends

be provided by a CFD are as follows:

1. Police

2. Fire

3. Recreation and Library

4. Maintenance of parks, parkways and open space

5. Maintenance of Roadways

6. Flood and storm protection services

7. Hazardous substance removal or remediation
On May 18, 2021, Council adopted Resolution 21-047 establishing policies related to CFDs for services. At this same meeting, Council adopted Resolution 21-048 stating its intention to establish City of Yuba City Community Facilities District 2021-1 (Municipal Services) (CFD 2021-1), authorize the levy of a special tax within the district, and authorize the annexation of future territory into the future annexation area by unanimous written approval On July 6, 2021, Council voted the Initial Property (Dunn Ranch Estates – Unit 1 Subdivision [56 residential lots] at the southeast corner of Royo Ranchero Drive and Monroe Drive) to be part of CFD 2021-1 and subject to the special taxes therein. Council also voted to include a Future Annexation Area. The Future Annexation Area consists of several undeveloped, residential zoned properties generally in the western and southern Yuba City Urbanized Area. The Future Annexation Area allows new property owners to annex to the district by unanimous written consent, which streamlines the CFD annexation process.

Analysis:

The Developer of West Sanborn Unit 2 Subdivision has executed an Unanimous Approval of Annexation to a Community Facilities District (CFD 2021-1) to satisfy this condition. West Sanborn Unit 2 Subdivision will be the tenth property to annex to CFD 2021-1 (Annexation No. 10), and will be subject to the special taxes therein.

In Resolution 21-048, Council directed the preparation of the Report for CFD 2021-1 to show the services to be provided in CFD 2021-1. The Hearing Report for CFD 2021-1 follows the same methodology used in the formation of CFD 2017-1, which initially established a maximum levy of $425 annually per single family residential unit with an escalation factor equal to the percentage escalation of the City’s combined Police and Fire Department budgets, up to a maximum escalation of 4 percent. The current levy in fiscal year 2025/2026 is $526.14 annually per single family residential unit and $383.77 annually per multi-family residential unit, which will be subject to future escalation in accordance with the rate and method of apportionment of the special tax.

A Notice of Special Tax Lein is to be recorded concurrently with the boundary map (Annexation No. 10 – West Sanborn Unit 2 Subdivision) in the Office of the County Recorder for the County of Sutter, State of California. The lien of the Special Tax is a continuing lien which shall secure each annual levy of the Special Tax within the area of Annexation No. 10 (West Sanborn Unit 2 Subdivision).

Fiscal Impact:

A total of 39 residential parcels are contained in the West Sanborn Unit 2 Subdivision resulting in a total current annual levy of $20,519.46, based on fiscal year 2025/2026 rates.

Page 162 of 232 ends

The developer is responsible for covering the costs of annexing to the CFD.

Alternatives:

Do not adopt a resolution annexing West Sanborn Unit 2 Subdivision into CFD No. 2021-1 to fund Municipal Services, and direct staff on other acceptable means of assuring this development contributes its fair share of impacts to services.

Recommendation:

Adopt a Resolution annexing a certain area, West Sanborn Unit 2 Subdivision, within the City Limits into an existing Community Facilities District (CFD No. 2021-1) to fund municipal services, and filing said Resolution, along with the Tenth Amendment to the Notice of Special Tax Lien, in the office of County Recorder of the County of Sutter.

E. FUTURE ANNEXATIONS
