If this contract is covered by the EO, the contractor must provide employees with 1 hour of paid sick leave for every 30 hours they work, up to 56 hours of paid sick leave each year. Employees must be permitted to use paid sick leave for their own illness, injury or other health-related needs, including preventive care; to assist a family member (or person who is like family to the employee) who is ill, injured, or has other health-related needs, including preventive care; or for reasons resulting from, or to assist a family member (or person who is like family to the employee) who is a victim of, domestic violence, sexual assault, or stalking. Additional information on contractor requirements and worker protections under the EO is available at https://www.dol.gov/agencies/whd/government-contracts.

Page 218 of 444 ends

Note: Executive Order 13658 generally applies to contracts subject to the Davis-Bacon Act that were awarded on or between January 1, 2015 and January 29, 2022, and that have not been renewed or extended on or after January 30, 2022. Executive Order 13658 does not apply to contracts subject only to the Davis-Bacon Related Acts regardless of when they were awarded. If a contract is subject to Executive Order 13658, the contractor must pay all covered workers at least $13.30 per hour (or the applicable wage rate listed on this wage determination, if it is higher) for all hours spent performing on the contract in 2025. The applicable Executive Order minimum wage rate will be adjusted annually.

Additional information on contractor requirements and worker protections under Executive Order 13658 is available at www.dol.gov/whd/govcontracts.

Unlisted classifications needed for work not included within the scope of the classifications listed may be added after award only as provided in the labor standards contract clauses (29CFR 5.5 (a) (1) (iii)). ---------------------------------------------------------------- The body of each wage determination lists the classifications and wage rates that have been found to be prevailing for the type(s) of construction and geographic area covered by the wage determination. The classifications are listed in alphabetical order under rate identifiers indicating whether the particular rate is a union rate (current union negotiated rate), a survey rate, a weighted union average rate, a state adopted rate, or a supplemental classification rate.

Union Rate Identifiers
A four-letter identifier beginning with characters other than ""SU"", ""UAVG"", ?SA?, or ?SC? denotes that a union rate was prevailing for that classification in the survey. Example: PLUM0198-005 07/01/2024. PLUM is an identifier of the union whose collectively bargained rate prevailed in the survey for this classification, which in this example would be Plumbers. 0198 indicates the local union number or district council number where applicable, i.e., Plumbers Local 0198. The next number, 005 in the example, is an internal number used in processing the wage determination. The date, 07/01/2024 in the example, is the effective date of the most current negotiated rate.

Union prevailing wage rates are updated to reflect all changes over time that are reported to WHD in the rates in the collective bargaining agreement (CBA) governing the classification.

Union Average Rate Identifiers

Page 219 of 444 ends

The UAVG identifier indicates that no single rate prevailed for those classifications, but that 100% of the data reported for the classifications reflected union rates. EXAMPLE: UAVG-OH-0010 01/01/2024. UAVG indicates that the rate is a weighted union average rate. OH indicates the State of Ohio. The next number, 0010 in the example, is an internal number used in producing the wage determination. The date, 01/01/2024 in the example, indicates the date the wage determination was updated to reflect the most current union average rate.

A UAVG rate will be updated once a year, usually in January, to reflect a weighted average of the current rates in the collective bargaining agreements on which the rate is based.

Survey Rate Identifiers
The ""SU"" identifier indicates that either a single non-union rate prevailed (as defined in 29 CFR 1.2) for this classification in the survey or that the rate was derived by computing a weighted average rate based on all the rates reported in the survey for that classification. As a weighted average rate includes all rates reported in the survey, it may include both union and non-union rates. Example: SUFL2022-007 6/27/2024. SU indicates the rate is a single non-union prevailing rate or a weighted average of survey data for that classification. FL indicates the State of Florida. 2022 is the year of the survey on which these classifications and rates are based. The next number, 007 in the example, is an internal number used in producing the wage determination. The date, 6/27/2024 in the example, indicates the survey completion date for the classifications and rates under that identifier. ?SU? wage rates typically remain in effect until a new survey is conducted. However, the Wage and Hour Division (WHD) has the discretion to update such rates under 29 CFR 1.6(c)(1).

State Adopted Rate Identifiers
The ""SA"" identifier indicates that the classifications and prevailing wage rates set by a state (or local) government were adopted under 29 C.F.R 1.3(g)-(h). Example: SAME2023-007 01/03/2024. SA reflects that the rates are state adopted. ME refers to the State of Maine. 2023 is the year during which the state completed the survey on which the listed classifications and rates are based. The next number, 007 in the example, is an internal number used in producing the wage determination. The date, 01/03/2024 in the example, reflects the date on which the classifications and rates under the ?SA? identifier took effect under state law in the state from which the rates were adopted. -----------------------------------------------------------

Consultant agrees that individual terms of costs identified in the audit report shall be incorporated into the Agreement by this reference if directed by City at its sole discretion. Refusal by Consultant to incorporate audit or review recommendations, or to ensure that the federal, City or local governments have access to CPA work papers, will be considered a breach of Agreement terms and cause for termination of the Agreement and disallowance of prior reimbursed costs.

IOAI, at its sole discretion, may review and/or audit and approve the CPA ICR documentation. The Cost Proposal shall be adjusted by the Consultant and approved by the City Contract Administrator to conform to the Work Paper Review recommendations included in the management letter or audit recommendations included in the audit report. Refusal by the Consultant to incorporate the Work Paper Review recommendations included in the management letter or audit recommendations included in the audit report will be considered a breach of the Agreement terms and cause for termination of the Agreement and disallowance of prior reimbursed costs.
i. During IOAI’s review of the ICR audit work papers created by the Consultant’s independent CPA, IOAI will work with the CPA and/or Consultant toward a resolution of issues that arise during the review. Each party agrees to use its best efforts to resolve any audit disputes in a timely manner. If IOAI identifies significant issues during the review and is unable to issue a cognizant approval letter, City will reimburse the Consultant at an accepted ICR until a FAR (Federal Acquisition Regulation) compliant ICR (e.g. 48 CFR Part 31; GAGAS (Generally Accepted Auditing Standards); CAS (Cost Accounting Standards), if applicable; in accordance with procedures and guidelines of the American Association of State Highways and Transportation Officials (AASHTO) Audit Guide; and other applicable procedures and guidelines) is received and approved by IOAI.

3. If the proposed rate is greater than two hundred percent (200%) - the accepted rate will be seventy-five percent (75%) of the proposed rate.

If IOAI is unable to issue a cognizant letter per Section 11.e.i., IOAI may require Consultant to submit a revised independent CPA-audited ICR and audit report within three (3) months of the effective date of the management letter. IOAI will then have up to six (6) months to review the Consultant’s and/or the independent CPA’s revisions.
iii. If the Consultant fails to comply with the provisions of this Section 11.e, or if IOAI is still unable to issue a cognizant approval letter after the revised independent CPA audited ICR is submitted, overhead cost reimbursement will be limited to the accepted ICR that was established upon initial rejection of the ICR and set forth in Section 11.e.i. for all rendered services. In this event, this accepted ICR will become the actual and final ICR for reimbursement purposes under this Agreement.
iv. Consultant may submit to City final invoice only when all of the following items have occurred: (1) IOAI accepts or adjusts the original or revised independent CPA audited ICR; (2) all work under this Agreement has been completed to the satisfaction of City; and, (3) IOAI has issued its final ICR review letter. The Consultant MUST SUBMIT ITS FINAL INVOICE TO City no later than sixty (60) calendar days after occurrence of the last of these items. The accepted ICR will apply to this Agreement and all other agreements executed between City and the Consultant, either as a prime or subconsultant, with the same fiscal period ICR.

CALCULATIONS FOR ANTICIPATED SALARY INCREASES

1. This is not the only way to estimate salary increases. Other methods will be accepted if they clearly indicate the % increase, the # of years of the contract, and a breakdown of the labor to be performed each year.

2. An estimation that is based on direct labor multiplied by salary increase % multiplied by the # of years is not acceptable. (i.e. $250,000 x 2% x 5 yrs = $25,000 is not an acceptable methodology)

3. This assumes that one year will be worked at the rate on the cost proposal before salary increases are granted.

Total Direct Labor Cost with Escalation
Direct Labor Subtotal before Escalation
Estimated total of Direct Labor Salary Increase
This is not the only way to estimate salary increases. Other methods will be accepted if they clearly indicate the % increase, the # of years of the contract, and a breakdown of the labor to be performed each year.

An estimation that is based on direct labor multiplied by salary increase % multiplied by the # of years is not acceptable. (i.e. $250,000 x 2% x 5 yrs = $25,000 is not an acceptable methodology).

Agenda Item 10

CITY OF YUBA CITY

STAFF REPORT
Date: May 19, 2026
To: Honorable Mayor & Members of the City Council;
From: Public Works Department
Presentation By: Joshua Wolffe, Public Works Director
Summary
Subject: SACOG System Preservation Program (Grant Application) Recommendation: Adopt a Resolution authorizing the Public Works Director to submit grant applications to SACOG requesting funding under the 2026 System Preservation Program
Fiscal Impact: Up to $15,000 for ongoing consultant work, plus minimal staff time to prepare the applications, with potential grant funding of over $2 million Purpose:

Comply with program requirements necessary to secure grant funding for improving City transportation infrastructure.

Strategic Focus Area:

This project addresses the City's Strategic Focus Areas of improving the City’s infrastructure in a fiscally responsible manner, specifically by seeking grant funding to improve the conditions of City streets.

Background:

The Sacramento Area Council of Governments’ (SACOG’s) 2026 Federal Funding Cycle is now open to local agencies in the six-county SACOG region, which includes Yuba City. This cycle SACOG has announced the following three programs will be included:
• System Preservation Program
• System Performance Program
• Next Generation Solutions & Clean Air Program
The first program to be released is the System Preservation Program, which invests in maintaining and resurfacing major roadways that keep people and goods moving. Priority is given to corridors that serve transit, freight, key community destinations, equity-priority areas, and emergency or evacuation routes.

The other two programs will be rolled out later this summer with applications due in September. A total of 3 applications can be submitted for each jurisdiction for each program.

Page 267 of 444 ends

SACOG has established a competitive process with performance-based funding targets for each County to ensure resources are distributed in line with regional priorities and measurable outcomes.

SACOG estimates that approximately $203 million in funding will be available across the three programs with a total of $7 to $10 million being allocated to jurisdictions in Sutter County (i.e., shared amongst Sutter County, Live Oak, and Yuba City).

The project evaluation and selection process will utilize the Project Performance Assessment Tool developed by SACOG to generate data about project benefits that can be compared to other projects.

SACOG will review all projects for eligibility and consistency with 2025 Blueprint goals prior to projects being reviewed by a six-county committee consisting of technical experts from SACOG, local transportation departments, and other transportation professionals. Projects will be prioritized across all six counties by the review committee using the criteria established by the SACOG Board of Directors at the beginning of the federal funding cycle. SACOG staff will review recommendations and ensure all projects are scored using regional performance criteria. Ultimately, the SACOG Board will approve the final grant awards.

Analysis:

Public Works staff have reviewed SACOG’s System Preservation Program requirements, participated in a pre-application coordination meeting with SACOG staff, and evaluated the City’s Pavement Management System ratings for applicable streets to develop a priority list of streets for the System Preservation Program. Staff recommend the following projects in order of priority:

1. Live Oak Boulevard, Sutter Street, Market Street, and Queens Avenue Preservation Project o Description: Pavement rehabilitation using a cape seal and replacement of pavement markings in accordance with current standards on Live Oak Boulevard from Pease Road to State Route 20 and on the Sutter-Market-Queens Corridor between Live Oak Boulevard and State Route 20.

2. Stabler Lane and Queens Avenue Preservation Project
o Description: Pavement rehabilitation using a cape seal and replacement of pavement markings in accordance with current standards on Stabler Lane from Queens Avenue to State Route 20 and on Queens Avenue from Stabler Lane to State Route 99.

3. Tharp Road Preservation Project
o Description: Pavement rehabilitation using a cape seal and replacement of pavement markings in accordance with current standards from State Route 20 to Bridge Street.

SACOG requires an adopted Resolution as part of the funding applications. SACOG also requires that the resolution commit the applicant to deliver the projects on time, ensure accountability, and assert that the projects align with funding goals and timelines. The attached resolution consists of SACOG’s grant application template and follows SACOG requirements.

Fiscal Impact:

Public Works has contracted with Peterson Consulting Advantage to assist with preparation of the grant applications, for a cost not to exceed $15,000. Minimal staff time is also required to complete the applications. The grant amount and local cost share for each application are as follows:

Project Total Cost Grant Amount Local Share
Live Oak, Sutter, Market and Queens$1,766,000 $1,562,000 $204,000 Stabler and Queens $800,000 $708,000 $92,000
Tharp $575,000 $515,000 $60,000
Total $3,141,000 $2,785,000 $356,000

Page 268 of 444 ends

There is a minimum 11.47% local cost share required, which would be funded by gas tax revenues.

Public Works staff are currently evaluating the remaining two SACOG grant programs that will be released this summer and will bring authority to submit any applications under those programs to Council at a later date.

Alternatives:

Do not authorize the Public Works Director to submit grant applications for these projects and forego applying this funding round.

Presentation By: Ciara Wakefield, City Clerk
Summary
Subject: Amended/Restated Regional Housing Authority JPA - Adding Lake County Recommendation: Authorize the Mayor to sign the Amended/Restated Regional Housing Authority Joint Powers Agreement to include Lake County
Fiscal Impact: None
Purpose:

Consider the Regional Housing Authority's request to add Lake County to the Joint Exercise of Powers Agreement between Sutter, Nevada, Yuba, Colusa Counties, and the Cities of Live Oak, Yuba City and Colusa.

Council's Strategic Goal:

This request improves the overall quality of life of residents in our region by expanding opportunities for housing to new areas.

Background:

The Regional Housing Authority (RHA) provides rental assistance through the Housing Choice Voucher program for clients in several jurisdictions as per the Amended and Restated Joint Exercise of Powers Agreement approved in July 2016. Lake County Housing Authority has expressed a desire to consolidate its management and operations of its entire Housing Choice Voucher, Emergency Housing Vouchers (EHV) and Veterans Affairs Supportive Housing (VASH) assistance programs with a larger entity to create an area housing authority.

Analysis:

At the April 16, 2025, meeting of the Regional Housing Authority (RHA) Board of Commissioners it was approved to consolidate with Lake County to administer their Housing Choice Voucher (Section 8), EHV and VASH assistance programs and its associated Annual Contributions Contract. As per the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), approval from the respective jurisdictions is required before the consolidation with Lake County can be finalized.

The Regional Housing Authority requested the City of Yuba City City Council approve the attached

Page 274 of 444 ends

Amended and Restated Joint Exercise of Powers Agreement between Sutter, Nevada, Yuba, Colusa and Lake Counites, and the Cities of Live Oak, Yuba City and Colusa, for the purpose of creating a Regional Housing Authority.

The Regional Housing Authority is requesting the City of Yuba City City Council approve the new revised Amended and Restated Joint Exercise of Powers Agreement (attached) between Sutter, Nevada, Yuba, Colusa and Lake Counites, and the Cities of Live Oak, Yuba City and Colusa, for the purpose of creating a Regional Housing Authority.

CITY OF YUBA CITY

STAFF REPORT
Date: May 19, 2026
To: Honorable Mayor & Members of the City Council;
From: Human Resources Department
Presentation By: Gina Rowland, Human Resources Director Summary
Subject: Approve Changes for Field Service Technician
Recommendation:

Adopt a Resolution taking the following actions effective May 16, 2026:

A. Approve a title change for Field Service Technician to Property and Evidence Technician
B. Approve an amendment to the Salary Schedule to add Senior Property and Evidence Technician with a salary range of $5,013 to $6,093 monthly C. Reallocate 1.0 vacant and funded Community Service Officer authorized position in Budget Unit 2140-Field Operations to 1.0 Senior Property and Evidence Technician in Budget Unit 2130-Investigation
D. Reclassify incumbent Field Service Technician to Senior Property and Evidence Technician
E. Authorize Human Resources to conduct a recruitment to fill the Property and Evidence Technician vacancy
Fiscal Impact: There is no additional cost resulting from these recommended actions Purpose:

To provide adequate staffing to ensure the safeguarding and preservation of evidence and property in compliance with applicable laws, codes, and regulations.

Strategic Focus Area:

This item addresses the Strategic Focus Area of Safe Communities. Collecting and processing evidence at crime scenes using proper chain of custody procedures, as well as properly securing, safeguarding, and preserving all incoming property and evidence to the Police Department is essential

Page 289 of 444 ends

to the successful prosecution of crime.

Background:

Currently the Police Department has one full-time Field Service Technician who is solely responsible for the safeguarding and preservation of all property and evidence in the custody of the Police Department. Until approximately a year ago, the department had used a volunteer to assist with the high volume of work. This fiscal year, the department hired a retired annuitant as an extra help employee to assist with the workload. In addition to an independent audit conducted by the department in 2020 that found the Property and Evidence function of the department was understaffed and recommended the Evidence Room be staffed by two full-time employees, the department completed construction on its new evidence building in 2025 which substantially increased the square footage for long-term inventory storage.

Each year, the requirements placed on local law enforcement by the state continue to increase. In 2021, a new National Incident Based Reporting System (NIBRS) was implemented by the State of California. This requires law enforcement agencies to report data on crimes, including evidence, to the FBI for a comprehensive analysis of crime data (nationwide) that can be used for research and policy analysis. This new requirement increased the staff time it takes to input and process evidence correctly.

Analysis:

The Police Department is requesting to change the title of the existing Field Service Technician to Property and Evidence Technician to more accurately describe the duties of the position, and to use the title more commonly used in other law enforcement agencies to perform these functions. The Department is also requesting to convert an existing funded and vacant Community Service Officer position to a new Senior Property and Evidence Technician position to add the necessary staffing resources to the department’s property and evidence functions. The new Senior Property and Evidence Technician will be an advanced journey level position that will provide lead worker oversight and direction to the Property and Evidence Technician. In addition, both classes will be able to assist with collecting and preserving evidence in the field, which is also a common essential function performed by Evidence Technicians in other law enforcement agencies.

Staff recommends the incumbent Field Service Technician be reclassified to Senior Property and Evidence Technician to appropriately classify her for the duties she is already performing. Staff further recommends that Human Resources be authorized to conduct a recruitment to fill the resulting Property and Evidence Technician vacancy to appropriately staff the Evidence Room of the Police Department.

Fiscal Impact:

There is no fiscal impact resulting from these recommended actions. The full year cost of the vacant Community Service Officer position for salary and benefits is $103,255. The full year cost of the new Senior Property and Evidence Technician is estimated to be $102,362. Sufficient funds have been included in the recommended budget for FY2026/27.

Recommendation:

Page 290 of 444 ends

CITY OF YUBA CITY

STAFF REPORT
Date: May 19, 2026
To: Honorable Mayor & Members of the City Council;
From: Human Resources Department
Presentation By: Gina Rowland, Human Resources Director Summary
Subject: Approve Side Letter Agreement for IT Standby Pay Recommendation:

Adopt a Resolution approving a side letter agreement with the First Level Managers to incorporate Standby Pay for the Information Technology Division into the Memorandum of Understanding
Fiscal Impact: The cost for Standby Pay is estimated to be approximately $13,415 for FY2026/27. This amount will be paid for by existing amounts budgeted for salaries and benefits. Additional costs for calls for service will be paid for by amounts budgeted for overtime
Purpose:

To approve a side letter agreement with the Yuba City First Level Managers bargaining unit to incorporate Standby Pay for Information Technology Division staff.

Strategic Focus Area:

The recommendation directly supports the Strategic Focus Area of Workforce Excellence, specifically the priority of employee development and well being. This priority area asks Human Resources to assess employee needs related to work-life balance and mental health. The recommended side letter agreement will provide much needed assistance to the IT Manager who has been the sole provider of after hours, weekend and holiday IT support to the City's 24/7 departments.

Background:

Presently, normal operating hours for the Information Technology Division are Monday through Friday 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. After hours and weekend support for City departments that operate on a 24/7 schedule such as the Police Department, Fire Department and the Treatment Plants, has been provided by the Information Technology Manager. It is not sustainable, for both the City and the employee, to have a single employee on call evenings, weekends, and holidays for 365 days of the year.

Page 298 of 444 ends

Analysis:

The attached side letter agreement provides for Standby Pay for IT Division employees in the First Level Managers bargaining unit who are eligible for overtime. IT Division employees who are designated as exempt from overtime under the Fair Labor Standards Act are not eligible for Standby Pay which is consistent with how all other exempt employees in the City are treated.

The Standby Pay amount is set at $2.45 per hour, which is the same amount as that received by all other First Level Managers who receive Standby Pay. Those class titles include Animal Services Supervisor, Water Distribution Supervisor, and Electrical Supervisor.

Fiscal Impact:

The total cost of Standby Pay is estimated to be $13,415 per year. If an employee on standby is called for service and resolves the call remotely, they will be compensated for a minimum of 30 minutes at the overtime rate. If the employee on standby is required to respond to a physical address, they are compensated for a minimum of two hours at the overtime rate.

Alternatives:

Do not approve the recommended actions.

Recommendation:

Adopt a Resolution approving a side letter agreement with the First Level Managers to incorporate Standby Pay for the Information Technology Division into the Memorandum of Understanding.

Agenda Item 14

CITY OF YUBA CITY

Adopt a Resolution taking the following actions effective May 16, 2026:

A. Approve an amendment to the Salary Schedule to add Environmental Compliance Specialist with a salary range of $6,452 to $7,843 monthly B. Authorize Human Resources to conduct a recruitment to underfill the vacant Environmental Compliance Coordinator position with the new Environmental Compliance Specialist class
Fiscal Impact: Approximately $6,320 in salary savings to Budget Unit 8130, Environmental Compliance
Purpose:

To provide an internal career path for City employees seeking to promote within the Environmental Compliance division of the Utilities Department.

Strategic Focus Area:

This item addresses the Strategic Focus Areas of Fiscal Responsibility and Workforce Excellence. The mid-level position of Environmental Compliance Specialist allows the Utilities department to achieve salary savings by underfilling the Environmental Compliance Coordinator position, while providing a promotional career path for current City employees.

Background:

The Environmental Compliance Coordinator at the Utilities Department recently resigned, and the department has evaluated its needs as well as the anticipated applicant pool should it recruit to backfill the vacancy. The Environmental Compliance Coordinator position oversees and supervises the City’s

Page 305 of 444 ends

Wastewater Pretreatment Program at a level of service that assures compliance with Federal and State mandates while facilitating the protection of water quality. Upon further review, the department has determined that a non-supervisory Environmental Compliance Specialist position would best meet the needs of the department.

Analysis:

The new class of Environmental Compliance Specialist creates a career ladder between the existing Environmental Compliance Inspector position and the supervisory Environmental Compliance Coordinator position.

The Inspector’s current primary role is to conduct onsite inspections at the City’s 250 food service establishments (restaurants, coffee shops, nursing homes, etc.). The Inspector doesn’t participate in enforcement activities, other than providing the manager of the food service establishment with verbal notice of the deficiencies identified during the inspection. The Inspector collects a sample once a week from Sunsweet and Valley Fine Foods that is used for billing. The Inspector learns and implements the City’s sewer use ordinance regulations for the Fats, Oils, and Grease (FOG) program.

The new Environmental Compliance Specialist class will be responsible for administering the Pretreatment Program, which is a state-mandated program for the Wastewater Treatment Facility.

Duties include performing site inspections of the industrial users, collecting samples from industrial users, reviewing discharge applications, writing industrial user discharge permits, conducting enforcements, recommending updates to the sewer chapter of the City’s Municipal Code, communicating with state regulators, writing and submitting the pretreatment annual report for NPDES compliance, and representing the City during the Pretreatment Compliance audit/inspections.

Staff requests that the City Council authorize Human Resources to conduct a recruitment to underfill the existing vacant Environmental Compliance Coordinator position with an Environmental Compliance Specialist.

Fiscal Impact:

There is no additional cost resulting from this recommended action. The salary savings are estimated to be $6,320 in FY2026/27.

Alternatives:

Do not approve the recommended actions.

Recommendation:

Adopt a Resolution taking the following actions effective May 16, 2026:

A. Approve an amendment to the Salary Schedule to add Environmental Compliance Specialist with a salary range of $6,452 to $7,843 monthly.

B. Authorize Human Resources to conduct a recruitment to underfill the vacant Environmental Compliance Coordinator position with the new Environmental Compliance Specialist class.

Agenda Item 15

CITY OF YUBA CITY

STAFF REPORT
Date: May 19, 2026
To: Honorable Mayor & Members of the City Council;
From: Utilities Department
Presentation By: Phil Marler, Utilities Director
Summary
Subject: Utilities Proposition 218 Public Hearing and Ordinance Update Recommendation: A. Conduct a Proposition 218 protest hearing B. Tabulate the protests received for water and/or wastewater rates and adopt a Resolution declaring the results
C. If majority protests have not been received, take the following action:

Introduce an Ordinance of the City Council of the City of Yuba City amending Chapter 5 (Wastewater Collection and Treatment) and Chapter 6 (Water System) of Title 6 of the Yuba City Municipal Code and waive the first reading Fiscal Impact: If proposed Proposition 218 rates are approved, the water and wastewater revenue changes would adequately fund projected operations, maintenance, and capital improvement for the upcoming five (5) fiscal years Purpose:

To complete the Proposition 218 process for the utilities service rates by conducting a protest hearing and tabulating the protest ballots, and subsequently update the utilities chapters of the Municipal Code.

Strategic Focus Area:

This item addresses Council’s Strategic Focus Area of Fiscal Responsibility and Infrastructure by providing the necessary cost recovery to support the services, operations, maintenance, labor, and capital improvement of the City’s water and wastewater systems.

Background:

The City’s utilities service rates and fees are intended to fully recuperate costs to deliver water and wastewater services and the operations and infrastructure of their associated systems via self-funded enterprise funds. In order to develop and propose rate maximums for a five-year projection, local agencies are required to provide a documentary record as evidence of the fiscal requirements per California statute.

Black & Veatch Management Company, LLC of Los Angeles, CA, in coordination with City staff, prepared water and wastewater rate studies which evaluated the operational and infrastructural needs

Page 314 of 444 ends

of the utilities systems and the share of rates and fees by customer classes to fulfill this need for the Utilities 2026 Proposition 218 rate approval process. The results of these rate models were then evaluated by both staff and a third-party consultant to confirm accuracy and feasibility.

The conclusions of the utilities rate studies were adopted by Council on March 17, 2026. At that time, the City Council directed staff to initiate a Proposition 218 protest process as legally required to adjust rates for all water and wastewater customer classes to meet the projected revenue requirements necessary to fund the utilities system operational and infrastructural needs for the next five (5) fiscal years.

Analysis:

Proposition 218 Process
California Proposition 218, adopted in 1996, requires the City to provide a 45-day period for affected utilities property owners to submit written protests in the event of proposed changes to the mandatory water and wastewater service charges and hold a public hearing. The adopted guidelines for the Proposition 218 submission and tabulation of written protests were prepared by the City Attorney’s office and are included as Attachment 3 for reference.

Per the Resolution adopted on March 17, the Proposition 218 protest hearing was scheduled for May 19, 2026 at 6:00 pm in the Council Chambers. Staff and the City’s consultant prepared a Notice of Proposition 218 Protest Hearing to inform utilities property owners and customers about the findings and recommendations of the rate studies and the written protest process, which was mailed on April 3, 2026, to comply with the minimum 45 days prior to the hearing (Exhibit 1A). The Notice was also posted in Spanish and Punjabi on the City’s website, along with the full water and wastewater rate studies and other informational materials. The Utilities Department also hosted a community meeting on April 23, 2026 and provided a dedicated phone hotline and email address to give customers multiple avenues to ask questions and provide feedback during the protest period.

In order to be counted, written protests may be mailed or delivered to the City Clerk or be submitted at the protest hearing. If more than 50% of the total affected property owners or customers protest in writing before the close of the public hearing for water and/or wastewater, the proposed rate changes for that utility will fail. Per the adopted guidelines, “[if] review of the protests received demonstrates that the number received is manifestly less than one-half of the parcels served by the City with respect to the fee which is the subject of the protest, then the City Clerk may advise the City Council of the absence of a majority protest without determining the validity of all protests.” In the event of no majority protest, staff prepared the appropriate changes to the water and/or wastewater Municipal Code for formal Ordinance introduction by the Council (Attachment 2). Staff would then return to Council on June 2, 2026 with the proposed rate schedules for approval via Resolution alongside the second reading of the Ordinance. The fee schedule recommended by the utilities rate studies and approved via the Proposition 218 process set a maximum limit on the amount that can be charged; the City Council retains the authority to adopt reduced rates as appropriate to match actual costs and revenues received.

Ordinance Update
The recommended water and wastewater Ordinance captures several changes necessary to accurately represent the service rates and current City structure and to meet regulatory requirements. These changes are summarized below:

Page 315 of 444 ends

Title 6 Chapter 5 – Wastewater Collection and Treatment • Remove the Proposition 218 limits and service fee tables, as they are adopted and recorded via Resolution and the City’s fee schedule
• Update responsibilities to add the recreated Utilities Director and reduce the responsibilities of the Public Works Director
• Update the industrial user service fee information to match the changes in calculation methodology
• Update the septage hauler fee information to match changes to rate determination Title 6 Chapter 6 – Water System
• Remove the Proposition 218 limits and service fee tables, as they are adopted and recorded via Resolution and the City’s fee schedule
• Update responsibilities to add the recreated Utilities Director and reduce the responsibilities of the Public Works Director
• Update backflow prevention requirements for landscape-only connections • Add regulations for California AB 1572 compliance to prohibit commercial, industrial, and institutional nonfunctional turf irrigation
Fiscal Impact:

The water and wastewater revenue changes and maximum rate schedules approved via the Proposition 218 process would adequately fund projected operations, maintenance, and capital improvement for the next five (5) fiscal years. A successful Proposition 218 process provides Council with the ability to set appropriate rate schedules via Resolution to secure this funding. Staff intends to prepare a recommended rate schedule for Council approval at the June 2 Council meeting alongside the second reading of the Ordinance, with implementation scheduled for November 1, 2026.

Alternatives:

1. In the event that one of the utilities receives a majority protest, modify the Ordinance to only amend the Municipal Code for the successful utility.

2. Direct staff to not bring forward new rate schedules for adoption at this time and keep water and wastewater service rates at the current levels. For wastewater, this would prevent the City from meeting the State Revolving Fund loan approval timeline for construction of the mandated Outfall Diffuser Replacement Project.

Recommendation:

A. Conduct a Proposition 218 protest hearing.

B. Tabulate the protests received for water and/or wastewater rates and adopt a Resolution declaring the results.

C. If majority protests have not been received, take the following action: Introduce an Ordinance of the City Council of the City of Yuba City amending Chapter 5 (Wastewater Collection and Treatment) and Chapter 6 (Water System) of Title 6 of the Yuba City Municipal Code and waive the first reading.

EXHIBIT 1A

Page 321 of 444 ends

The City of Yuba City provides safe, reliable
water and wastewater (sewer) services
to approximately 20,000 customers.

This includes treating and delivering clean drinking water; collecting and treating wastewater; maintaining, repairing, and replacing pipes and facilities; and responding to water and sewer emergencies. Additionally, the City must comply with strict state and federal water-quality standards and permit requirements.

Periodically, the City adjusts water and wastewater rates to ensure rate revenues cover the cost of providing these services.

Water and wastewater rates were last evaluated in 2016.

To avoid these problems, the City is proposing a series of water and wastewater rate adjustments over the next five (5) years to cover the cost of providing safe and reliable services.

The City Council will hold a public hearing on the proposed rate adjustments at 6 p.m., Tuesday, May 19, 2026. In addition, property owners or customers of record may submit a written protest for proposed rate adjustments for water services, wastewater services, or both. Please review this notice for more details.

Today, revenues fall short of what’s
needed to properly operate the utilities.

This increases risks of deferred
maintenance, system failures, service
disruptions, and regulatory penalties.

RATE ADJUSTMENT PROCESS
Rate revenues must pay for operations and maintenance, debt for past and planned projects, and capital improvements. The utilities must also maintain reserve funds for unexpected costs, such as emergency repairs.

Water and wastewater rates have not been reviewed since 2016. Current revenues no longer cover the full cost of providing these services. Recently, an independent consultant evaluated the funding needed over the next five years to operate and maintain the water and wastewater systems. The study found that the water system will need about $9 million more per year, and the wastewater system will need about $15.2 million more per year to cover costs over the next five years.

Major cost increases include electricity, treatment materials, labor, and infrastructure upgrades. Planned projects include about $39.4 million for water system improvements, such as pipeline replacements and water treatment plant upgrades, and about $88.9 million for wastewater improvements, including a $61.8 million state-mandated project to replace the outfall diffuser that discharges treated wastewater into the Feather River.

OUR RIVER-TO-TAP SYSTEM
The Feather River is Yuba City’s primary
source for drinking-water supply. It’s also
where the City discharges treated wastewater.

A failure in the water or wastewater
systems could be harmful to water quality
and public health. To ensure safe and
reliable services, it’s critical that water and
wastewater rate revenues provide for:

Single Family and Multifamily residential customers only pay a fixed monthly charge. Commercial, Industrial and School customers pay fix charges, plus additional charges specific to their customer class. The following rate chart shows proposed rates for each customer class. If adopted, rate adjustments will occur on November 1 of each year (will appear on January bills).

ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF YUBA CITY AMENDING CHAPTER 5 (WASTEWATER COLLECTION AND TREATMENT) AND CHAPTER 6 (WATER SYSTEM) OF TITLE 6 OF THE YUBA CITY MUNICIPAL CODE
WHEREAS, the City Council of Yuba City (“City”) is authorized by the California Constitution, Article XI, Section 7 to make and enforce within its limits all local, police, sanitary, and other ordinances and regulations not in conflict with general laws; and WHEREAS, the City Council has adopted the Yuba City Municipal Code, which it periodically updates to protect the public health, safety, and welfare; and WHEREAS, the City Council adopted water and wastewater rate studies and initiated a Proposition 218 protest process on April 17, 2026 in order to secure the necessary service rate revenue to fund critical operations, maintenance, debt service, and capital infrastructure improvements for the water and wastewater systems; and
WHEREAS, in accordance with Proposition 218, a protest public hearing took place on May 19, 2026, in which the City Clerk received and tabulated the protests and determined that there was not a majority protest of the proposed water and wastewater rate adjustments; and WHEREAS, City Council desires to update and amend the Yuba City Municipal Code Title 6 Chapter 5 (Wastewater Collection and Treatment) and Chapter 6 (Water System) in order to capture the 2026 Proposition 218 rate maximums and user class changes, update the roles and responsibilities associated with the Utilities Director and Public Works Director, and meet new state water regulations in a fair manner that best addresses the public health, safety, and welfare.

NOW THEREFORE, the City Council of the City of Yuba City does ordain as follows:

Section 1.

The above recitals are all true and correct and are hereby adopted as findings.

Section 2.

The proposed ordinance was assessed in accordance with the authority and criteria contained in CEQA, the State CEQA Guidelines (“CEQA Guidelines”), and the environmental regulations of the City. The City Council finds and determines that the proposed ordinance is not a “project” for the purposes of CEQA and consistent with CEQA Guidelines Section 15378, as it promotes environmental conditions by providing improved processes and programs for the treatment and delivery of drinking water and the collection and treatment of wastewater, and will not result in direct or indirect substantial, adverse physical changes in the environment as compared to the current baseline. Additionally, the City Council finds and determines for the same reasons that even if the proposed ordinance were a project for the purposes of CEQA, there is no possibility that this project may have a significant adverse effect on the environment pursuant to CEQA Guidelines, Section 15061(b)(3). Therefore, the proposed ordinance is not subject to CEQA.

Page 2 of 79 ends

(g) To enable the City to comply with its National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System permit conditions, sludge use and disposal requirements, and any other Federal or State laws to which the publicly owned treatment works is subject;
(h) To require that sanitary sewers and connections are properly designed, constructed, and maintained; (i) To ensure access in easements, rights-of-way, and any other areas where sanitary sewer system facilities are installed for maintenance, inspection, or repairs of the sanitary sewer system and any portions of the service laterals and satellite collection system; (j) To limit discharge of fats, oils, grease, and other debris that may cause blockages; and (k) To enforce any violations of this chapter.

This chapter shall apply to all users of the publicly owned treatment works. This chapter authorizes the issuance of wastewater discharge permits; provides for monitoring, inspections, compliance, and enforcement activities; establishes administrative review procedures; requires user reporting; and provides for the setting of fees for the equitable distribution of costs resulting from the program established herein.

Revenues derived from the application of this chapter shall be used to defray the City's cost of operating and maintaining adequate wastewater collection and treatment systems and to provide sufficient funds for capital outlay, bond service cost, capital improvements, depreciation, and/or capital replacement.

Sec. 6-5.102. Scope.

This chapter shall be interpreted in accordance with the definitions set forth in Section 6-5.106. of this article.

The provisions of this chapter shall apply to the direct or indirect discharge of all liquid-carried wastes to the facilities of the City. This chapter, among other things, provides for the regulation of sewer construction in areas within the City, the quantity and quality of discharged wastes, the degree of waste pretreatment required, the setting of waste discharge fees to provide for the equitable distribution of costs, the approval of plans for sewer construction, the issuance of permits for industrial wastewater discharges and of other miscellaneous permits, and the establishment of penalties for violations of this chapter.

Sec. 6-5.103. Administration.

Except as otherwise provided in this chapter, the City Manager shall administer, implement, and enforce the provisions of this chapter by coordinating the actions of the Public WorksUtilities Director, the Finance Director, the Public Works Director, and any other necessary City department. The primary responsibility for the administration, implementation, and enforcement of the parts of this chapter which relate to billing, collecting, and accounting for the fees and charges established by this chapter is assigned to the Finance Director. The primary responsibility for the administration, implementation, and enforcement of the parts of this chapter related to the operations of the wastewater treatment facility, wastewater collection system, sewer system management plan, pretreatment program, and water treatment plant is assigned to the Public WorksUtilities Director. The primary responsibility for the administration, implementation, and enforcement of the parts of this chapter which relate to professional engineering functions, private development, and improvement or construction of public infrastructure is assigned to the Public Works Director. The primary responsibility for the administration, implementation, and enforcement of all other parts of this chapter is assigned to the Public WorksUtilities Director. Any powers granted to, or duties imposed upon, the City Manager, Public WorksUtilities Director, or Finance Director, or Public Works Director may be delegated by them to persons acting in the beneficial interests of or in the employ of the City.

County. The County of Sutter.

CPC. California Plumbing Code Book, California Code of Regulations Title 24, Part 5.

Daily discharge. Daily discharge is defined as either:

Page 6 of 79 ends

(1) The total mass of the constituent discharged over the calendar day (12:00 a.m. through 11:59 p.m.) or any 24-hour period that reasonably represents a calendar day for purposes of sampling, for a constituent with limitations expressed in units of mass; or (2) The unweighted arithmetic mean measurement of the constituent over the day for a constituent with limitations expressed in other units of measurement (e.g., concentration).

The daily discharge may be determined by the analytical results of a composite sample taken over the course of one day (a calendar day or other 24-hour period defined as a day) or by the arithmetic mean of analytical results from one or more grab samples taken over the course of the day.

For composite sampling, if one day is defined as a 24-hour period other than a calendar day, the analytical result for the 24-hour period will be considered as the result for the calendar day in which the 24-hour period ends.

Daily maximum. The arithmetic average of all effluent samples for a pollutant collected during a calendar day.

Daily maximum limit. The maximum allowable discharge limit of a pollutant during a calendar day. Where daily maximum limits are expressed in units of mass, the daily discharge is the total mass discharged over the course of the day. Where daily maximum limits are expressed in terms of concentration, the daily discharge is the arithmetic average measurement of the pollutant concentration derived from all measurements taken that day.

Discharger. Any person who discharges or causes a discharge to a public sewer.

Dissolved solids. The solid matter in solution in the wastewaters, which shall be obtained by the evaporation of a sample from which all suspended matter has been removed by filtration as determined by the procedures in "standard methods."
Dwelling unit. Any residence, apartment, habitation, or other structure customarily occupied by a single person or family and which contains facilities for the preparation of meals.

Effluent. The liquid outflow of any facility designed to treat, convey, or retain wastewaters.

Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency or, where appropriate, the Regional Water Management Division Director or other duly authorized official of the agency.

Existing source. Any source of discharge, the construction or operation of which commenced prior to the publication by the EPA of proposed categorical pretreatment standards, which will be applicable to such source if the standard is thereafter promulgated in accordance with Section 307 of the Act.

Fats, oils, and grease (FOG). Any substance such as a vegetable or animal product that is used in or is a byproduct of the cooking or food preparation process and that becomes or may become viscous, or solidifies or may solidify, with a change in temperature or other conditions.

FOG control program. A document prepared and implemented by the City to control FOG (fats, oils, and/or grease).

Food service establishment (FSE). Any facility which prepares and/or packages food or beverages for sale or consumption, on- or off-site, with the exception of private residences, including, but not limited to, food courts, food manufacturers, food packagers, restaurants, grocery stores, bakeries, lounges, bars, hospitals, hotels, nursing homes, churches, and schools.

Garbage. Any solid wastes from the preparation, cooking, and dispensing of food and from the handling, storage, and sale of produce.

Grab sample. A sample which is taken from a waste stream without regard to the flow in the waste stream and over a period of time not to exceed 15 minutes.

Grease-removal device(s). All food service establishments that discharge wastewater to the City's wastewater collection system are required to have City-approved and properly sized grease-removal devices, also commonly referred to as "grease traps" or "grease interceptors." Both devices are primary grease-removal devices that separate and retain free-floating FOG. The differences between the two types of grease-removal devices are primarily the size and physical location of the unit.

Indirect discharge or discharge. The introduction of pollutants into the POTW from any non-domestic source regulated under Sections 307(b), (c), or (d) of the Act.

Industrial wastewater or industrial user (IU). Shall mean as defined in Article 4 of this chapter.

Insignificant violation. Any violation that is not by definition defined as significant non-compliance (SNC).

Inspector. A person authorized by the Public Works Director to inspect wastewater generation, conveyance, processing, and disposal facilities.

Instantaneous maximum allowable discharge limit. The maximum concentration of a pollutant allowed to be discharged at any time, determined from the analysis of any discrete or composited sample collected, independent of the industrial flow rate and the duration of the sampling event.

Interference. A discharge, which alone or in conjunction with a discharge or discharges from other sources, inhibits or disrupts the POTW, its treatment processes, or operations or its sludge processes, use, or disposal, and, therefore, is a cause of a violation of the City's NPDES permit (including an increase in the magnitude or duration of a violation) or causes the prevention of sewage sludge use or disposal in compliance with any of the following statutory/regulatory provisions or permits issued hereunder, or any more stringent State or local regulations:

Section 405 of the Act; the Solid Waste Disposal Act (SWDA), including Title II, commonly referred to as the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA); any State regulations contained in any State sludge management plan prepared pursuant to Subtitle D of the Solid Waste Disposal Act); the Clean Air Act; the Toxic Substances Control Act; and the Marine Protection, Research, and Sanctuaries Act.

Lot or parcel. A lot or parcel of land consisting of one lot of record in one ownership.

Main sewer or sewer main. A portion of the community sewer system located in a street or public easement which receives wastewater from the service lateral of a discharger and is designated to accommodate more than one service lateral.

Maximum allowable concentration. The maximum concentration of a pollutant which may be discharged from an IU into the City's collection system. Unless dictated by superseding regulations (i.e., national pretreatment or categorical standards), the maximum allowable concentration may be taken as a grab or composite sample at the discretion of the Public Works Director.

Maximum allowable headworks loading (MAHL). The estimated maximum loading of a pollutant that can be received at a POTW's headworks without causing pass through or interference. The most protective (lowest) of the AHLs estimated for a pollutant.

Maximum allowable industrial loading (MAIL). The estimated maximum loading of a pollutant that can be received at a POTW's headworks from all permitted industrial users and controlled sources without causing pass through or interference. The MAIL is usually calculated by applying a safety factor to the MAHL and discounting for uncontrolled sources, hauled wastewater, and growth allowance.

Medical waste. Isolation wastes, infectious agents, human blood and blood products, pathological wastes, sharps, body parts, contaminated bedding, surgical wastes, potentially contaminated laboratory wastes, and dialysis wastes.

Monthly average. The sum of all daily discharges measured during a calendar month divided by the number of daily discharges measured during that month.
