MEETING DATE: June 4, 2018 SUBJECT:

2017 Annual Marie Sparks Memorial Volunteer Award

PREPARED BY:

Anna Grant, Active Adult and Senior Services Supervisor

STRATEGIC INITIATIVE(S): Quality of Life

RECOMMENDED ACTION(S): Present the annual Marie Sparks Memorial Volunteer Award for 2017 to Kim Thompson and Graham Haun for their outstanding volunteerism benefiting the residents and community of Healdsburg.

BACKGROUND: Marie Sparks, born September 14, 1914, was a woman of vision, compassion, and grit. A nononsense kind of person, Marie saw needs in our community ranging from seniors to children and animals. Asking for help was easy for Marie: she just did not take no for an answer. Marie rubbed shoulders with Federal and State legislators as easily as she did with the poorest of the poor in our community. Marie was a low-income senior who did not let lack of her own resources stand in her way. She had the ability to inspire others to work with her, to get to the heart of a problem, and to find a solution. She left a legacy of good works, many admiring friends, and a stronger community. After her death on April 10, 1995, the Healdsburg City Council wished to remember Marie’s giving and unselfish spirit with the Annual Marie Sparks Memorial Volunteer Award. This award gives the City the opportunity to recognize and pay tribute to the many outstanding volunteers who serve residents and organizations of Healdsburg, and celebrates those who dedicate their time to be stewards and leaders of the community. A selection committee comprised of the previous award recipients recommends the current year’s recipient based on the award selection criteria. The selection committee is pleased to announce that the 2017 award recipients are Kim Thompson and Graham Haun. DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS:

Even though he is in retirement he continues to support safety work throughout the county and state. Kim gives countless hours as a booster and Kim always says yes for Healdsburg High School.

Investment Policy for Fiscal Year 2018-19

PREPARED BY:

Heather Ippoliti, Assistant City Manager

STRATEGIC INITIATIVE(S): Fiscal Responsibility

RECOMMENDED ACTION(S): Adopt a Resolution approving the City’s Investment Policy for fiscal year 2018-19

BACKGROUND: The California Government Code Section 53646(a)(2) requires the City Treasurer to submit a “Statement of Investment Policy” to the legislative body each fiscal year. This policy has been designed and developed according to the specific needs of the City of Healdsburg and comply with the California Government Code, guidelines recommended by the California Municipal Treasurer’s Association and guidelines recommended by the Association of Public Treasurers of the United States and Canada. Per the City’s Municipal Code, the City’s Finance Director serves as the City Treasurer. The City’s Assistant City Manager is currently assuming the duties and responsibility of Finance Director. The single most important statutory duty of the Treasurer is set forth in California Code Section 41001 which provides that the “City Treasurer shall receive and safely keep all money” coming into the Treasury. In light of these statutory responsibilities, the California Municipal Treasurer’s Association has established the following guidelines to prudent investment strategy for local treasurers to follow: 

Legal Investment Authority: Temporary idle monies are to be invested in accordance with state and local statutes and in compliance with California Government Code Section 53600 et seq.



Safety: It is the primary duty and responsibility of the Treasurer to protect, preserve, and maintain intact cash and investments placed in trust with the Treasurer on behalf of the citizens of the City of Healdsburg.

Packet Pg. 35

6.A



Liquidity: An adequate percentage of the portfolio should be maintained in liquid shortterm securities, which can be converted to cash if necessary to meet disbursement requirements.



Yield: The Treasurer shall obtain the highest possible yield within the parameters of the City’s authorized investments, provided the criteria for safety and liquidity have been met.

DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS: For the City Council’s consideration, the attached proposed investment policy for fiscal year 2018-19 is in accordance with California Government Code Section 53600 et seq, which governs investment practices of local government agencies. Section III of the City’s policy clearly specifies the three primary objectives of the City’s investment activities as safety, liquidity and yield, in that order of priority. Revisions to the policy include minor updates to the Scope section on what the policy doesn’t cover: retirement, 457k, and OPEB. Other revisions include the addition of standard FDIC language for CDs. ALTERNATIVES: As the California Government Code Section 53646(a)(2) requires the City Treasurer to submit a “Statement of Investment Policy” to the legislative body each fiscal year, if Council chooses to not adopt the resolution, additional direction from Council will be requested. FISCAL IMPACT: There is no financial impact as a direct result of the proposed action. ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS: Pursuant to Title 14, the California Code of Regulations, Section 15302(c) of the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) guidelines, approval of this resolution is an administrative activity of the City that will not result in direct or indirect physical changes to the environment.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

II. SCOPE This investment policy applies to all the financial assets of City of Healdsburg. These funds are accounted for in the City’s audited Annual Financial Report. If the City invests funds on behalf of another agency and, if that agency does not have its own policy, the City's investment policy shall govern the agency's investments. A. Pooling of Funds Except for cash in certain restricted and special funds, the City shall consolidate cash balances from all funds to maximize investment earnings. Investment income shall be allocated to various funds in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. B. Funds Included in this Policy General Fund Special Revenue Funds Capital Project Funds Enterprise Funds Fiduciary Funds Utility Funds Any new fund created by City Council unless specifically exempted C. Funds Excluded from this Policy This investment policy does not apply to bond proceeds, deferred compensation funds, retirement or other post-employment benefits trust funds as these are governed under separate California Government Code sections or other documentation. III. GENERAL OBJECTIVES The primary objectives, in priority order, of the City’s investment activities are safety, liquidity and yield. A. Safety Preservation of principal is the foremost objective of the investment program. Investments of the City shall be undertaken in a manner that seeks to ensure the preservation of capital in the overall portfolio. The objective shall be to mitigate credit risk and interest rate risk. To attain this objective, the City shall diversify its investments by investing funds among several financial institutions and a variety of securities offering independent returns. 1. Credit Risk The City shall minimize credit risk, the risk of loss due to the failure of the security issuer or backer, by:  Limiting investments to the safest types of securities

I. MISSION STATEMENT It is the policy of the City of Healdsburg (“City”) to invest public funds in a manner that will provide maximum security, adequate liquidity and sufficient yield, while meeting the daily cash flow demands of the City and conforming to all statutes and regulations governing the investment of public funds.

6.A.b



Pre-qualifying the financial institutions, broker/dealers, intermediaries, and advisers with which the City will do business Diversifying the investment portfolio so as to minimize the impact any one industry/investment class can have on the portfolio

2. Interest Rate Risk To minimize the negative impact of material changes in the market value of securities in the portfolio, the City shall:  Structure the investment portfolio so that securities mature concurrent with cash needs to meet anticipated demands, thereby avoiding the need to sell securities on the open market prior to maturity  Invest operating funds primarily in shorter-term securities, money market mutual funds, and the State of California’s Local Agency Investment Fund (“LAIF”) B. Liquidity The City’s investment portfolio shall remain sufficiently liquid to enable the City to meet all operating requirements that might be reasonably anticipated without requiring a sale of securities. Since all possible cash demands cannot be anticipated, the portfolio shall consist largely of securities with active secondary or resale markets. A portion of the portfolio also may be placed in money market mutual funds or LAIF which offer same-day liquidity for short-term funds. C. Yield (Return on Investment) The City’s investment portfolio shall be designed with the objective of attaining a benchmark rate of return throughout budgetary and economic cycles, commensurate with the City’s investment risk constraints and the liquidity characteristics of the portfolio. Return on investment is of secondary importance compared to the safety and liquidity objectives described above. The core of investments is limited to relatively low risk securities in anticipation of earning a fair return relative to the risk being assumed. IV. STANDARDS OF CARE A. Prudence The standard of prudence to be used by City investment officials shall be the “prudent investor standard” in that a trustee shall act with care, skill, prudence, and diligence under the circumstances then prevailing, including, but not limited to, the general economic conditions and the anticipated needs of the City, that a prudent person acting in a like capacity and familiarity with those matters would use in the conduct of an enterprise of a like character and with like aims. This standard shall be applied in the context of managing the overall portfolio. City investment officers acting in accordance with written procedures and the investment policy and exercising due diligence shall be relieved of personal responsibility for an individual security’s credit risk or market price changes, provided deviations from expectations are reported in a timely fashion and appropriate action is taken to control adverse developments. B. Ethics and Conflicts of Interest Officers and employees involved in the City investment process shall refrain from personal business activity that could conflict with proper execution of the investment City of Healdsburg Investment Policy

C. Delegation of Authority In accordance with the City of Healdsburg's Municipal Code, herewith established, the Administrative Services Director, who serves as City Treasurer is authorized to invest the City's funds in accordance with California Government Code 53600 et seq. In the absence of the City Administrative Services Director, the investment of funds will be delegated to the Accounting Assistant. Investments made by the Accounting Assistant will be restricted to LAIF, or securities maturing within six months. D. Investment Management Committee An investment committee may be appointed by the City Manager for the purpose of determining investment strategies and to monitor performance. This committee would include the City Manager, the Assistant City Manager, the Administrative Services Director and the Electric Utility Director. The committee may make recommendations regarding portfolio diversification, economic outlook and overall risk management. E. Internal Controls The City Administrative Services Director is responsible for establishing and maintaining a system of written internal controls. The internal controls shall be designed to prevent losses of public funds arising from fraud, employee error, misrepresentation by third parties, unanticipated changes in financial markets, or imprudent action by City employees and officers. The internal structure shall be designed to provide reasonable assurance that these objectives are met. The concept of reasonable assurance recognizes that (1) the cost of a control should not exceed the benefits likely to be derived, and (2) the valuation of costs and benefits requires estimates and judgments by management.

Percentage limitations of surplus funds invested are noted for the various investment instruments. Where there is a specified percentage limitation for a particular category of investments, that percentage is applicable only at the date of purchase. A later increase or decrease in a percentage resulting from a change in values or assets shall not constitute a violation of that restriction.

6.A.b

ASKED: The price at which securities are offered for sale; also known as offering price. BENCHMARK: A comparative base for measuring the performance or risk tolerance of the investment portfolio.

(When you are selling securities, you ask for a bid.) BOND PROCEEDS: The money paid to the issuer by the purchaser or underwriter of a new issue of municipal securities. These moneys are used to finance the project or purpose for which the securities were issued and to pay certain costs of issuance as may be provided in the bond contract. BOOK VALUE: The value at which a debt security is shown on the holder's balance sheet. Book value is often acquisition cost plus/minus amortization and accretion, which may differ significantly from the security’s current value in the market.

This measurement helps an investor to understand an issuer's ability to make timely interest payments and repay the loan principal upon maturity.

Delivery versus receipt is delivery of securities with an exchange of a signed receipt for the securities. DERIVATIVES: (1) financial instruments whose return profile is linked to, or derived from, the movement of one or more underlying index or security, and may include a leveraging factor, or (2) financial contracts based upon notional amounts whose value is derived from an underlying index or security (interest rates, foreign exchange rates, equities or commodities).

DIVERSIFICATION: Dividing investment funds among a variety of security types by sector, maturity and quality ratings offering independent returns. DURATION: A measure of the timing of the cash flows, such as the interest payments and the principal repayment, to be received from a given fixed-income security. This calculation is based on three variables: term to maturity, coupon rate, and yield to maturity. The duration of a security is a useful indicator of its price volatility for given changes in interest rates. FAIR VALUE: The amount at which an investment could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties, other than in a forced or liquidation sale. FEDERAL CREDIT AGENCIES: Agencies of the Federal Government set up to supply credit to various classes of institutions and individuals, e.g., S&L’s, small-business firms, students, farmers, farm co-operatives, and exporters. FEDERAL DEPOSIT INSURANCE CORPORATION (FDIC): A federal agency that insures bank deposits currently up to $250,000 per deposit. FEDERAL HOME LOAN BANKS (FHLB): Government sponsored wholesale banks (currently 12 regional banks) that lend funds and provide correspondent banks services to member commercial banks, thrift institutions, credit unions and insurance companies. FEDERAL NATIONAL MORTGAGE ASSOCIATION (FNMA): FNMA is a federal corporation working under the auspices of the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). It is the largest single provider of residential mortgage funds in the United States. Fannie Mae, as the corporation is called, is a private stockholder-owned corporation. The corporation’s purchases include a variety of adjustable mortgages and second loans, in addition to fixed-rate mortgages. FEDERAL OPEN MARKET COMMITTEE (FOMC): Consists of seven members of the Federal Reserve Board and five of the twelve Federal Reserve Bank Presidents. The President of the New York Federal Reserve Bank is a permanent member, while the other Presidents serve on a rotating basis. The Committee periodically meets to set Federal Reserve guidelines regarding purchases and sales of Government Securities in the open market as a means of influencing the volume of bank credit and money. FEDERAL RESERVE SYSTEM: The central bank of the United States created by Congress and consisting of a seven member Board of Governors in Washington, D.C., twelve Regional Banks and about 5,700 commercial banks that are members of the system. FINANCIAL INDUSTRY REGULATORY AUTHORITY (FINRA): A self-regulatory organization (SRO) of brokers and dealers in the over-the-counter securities business. Its regulatory mandate includes authority over firms that distribute mutual fund shares as well as other securities.

investment securities available in the U.S. securities market. See "Treasury Bills, Notes, and Bonds." INTEREST RATE RISK: The risk associated with declines or rises in interest rates which cause an investment in a fixed-income security to increase or decrease in value. INTERNAL CONTROLS: An internal control structure designed to ensure that the assets of the entity are protected from loss, theft, or misuse. The internal control structure is designed to provide reasonable assurance that these objectives are met. The concept of reasonable assurance recognizes that 1) the cost of a control should not exceed the benefits likely to be derived and 2) the valuation of costs and benefits requires estimates and judgments by management. Internal controls should address the following points:  Control of collusion - Collusion is a situation where two or more employees are working in conjunction to defraud their employer.  Separation of transaction authority from accounting and record keeping - By separating the person who authorizes or performs the transaction from the people who record or otherwise account for the transaction, a separation of duties is achieved.  Custodial safekeeping - Securities purchased from any bank or dealer including appropriate collateral (as defined by state law) shall be placed with an independent third party for custodial safekeeping.  Avoidance of physical delivery securities - Book-entry securities are much easier to transfer and account for since actual delivery of a document never takes place. Delivered securities must be properly safeguarded against loss or destruction. The potential for fraud and loss increases with physically delivered securities.  Clear delegation of authority to subordinate staff members - Subordinate staff members must have a clear understanding of their authority and responsibilities to avoid improper actions. Clear delegation of authority also preserves the internal control structure that is contingent on the various staff positions and their respective responsibilities.  Written confirmation of transactions for investments and wire transfers - Due to the potential for error and improprieties arising from telephone and electronic transactions, all transactions should be supported by written communications and approved by the appropriate person. Written communications may be via fax if on letterhead and if the safekeeping institution has a list of authorized signatures.  Development of a wire transfer agreement with the lead bank and third-party custodian - The designated official should ensure that an agreement will be entered into and will address the following points: controls, security provisions, and responsibilities of each party making and receiving wire transfers. LIQUIDITY: A liquid asset is one that can be converted easily and rapidly into cash without a substantial loss of value. In the money market, a security is said to be liquid if the spread between bid and asked prices is narrow and reasonable size can be done at those quotes. LOCAL AGENCY INVESTMENT FUND (LAIF): Chapter 730, Statutes of 1976 of the State of California, established the Local Agency Investment Fund. This fund enables local governmental agencies to remit money not required for immediate needs to the State Finance Director for the purpose of investment. In order to derive the maximum rate of return possible, the State Finance Director has elected to invest these monies with State monies as a part of the Pooled Money Investment Account. Each local governmental unit has the exclusive determination of the length of time its money will be on deposit with the State Finance Director. At the end of each calendar quarter, all earnings derived from investments are distributed by the State Controller to the participating government agencies in proportion to each agency's City of Healdsburg Investment Policy

Prior to the distribution, the State's costs of administering the program are deducted from the earnings. MARK-TO-MARKET: The process whereby the book value or collateral value of a security is adjusted to reflect its current market value. MARKET RISK: The risk that the value of a security will raise or decline as a result of changes in market conditions. MARKET VALUE: The current price at which a security is trading and could presumably be purchased or sold at that particular point in time. MASTER REPURCHASE AGREEMENT: A written contract covering all future transactions between the parties to repurchase-reverse repurchase agreements that establish each party’s rights in the transactions. A master agreement will often specify, among other things, the right of the buyer-lender to liquidate the underlying securities in the event of default by the sellerborrower. MATURITY: The date upon which the principal or stated value of a financial obligation is due and payable. MONEY MARKET MUTUAL FUND: Mutual funds that invest solely in money market instruments (short-term debt instruments, such as Treasury bills, commercial paper, bankers' acceptances, repos and federal funds).

PREPARED BY:

Clay Thistle, Senior Engineer

STRATEGIC INITIATIVE(S): Effective & Efficient Government Infrastructure & Facilities

RECOMMENDED ACTION(S): Adopt a Resolution accepting the Pedestrian Safety and Access Improvements Project as complete and authorizing staff to file a Notice of Completion with the County Recorder's Office

BACKGROUND: City Council awarded the bid for the Pedestrian Safety and Access Improvements Project to FBD Vanguard Construction, Inc. in August of 2017. Construction on the Project began in October of 2017. This project was completed to improve access and safety along the route between the Library and Healdsburg High School (Piper St., Prince St. and Powell Ave.). The City advertised the project in accordance with applicable procedures and opened bids on July 12, 2017. The project consisted of installing eight (8) new pedestrian curb ramps with associated signage and enhanced crosswalk markings and installation of an overhead flashing beacon at the intersection of Powell Avenue and Prince Avenue. On May 17, 2018 FBD Vanguard Construction, Inc. notified the City in writing that it considers the work complete, supported by the facts that all contract documents have been reviewed and the work has been inspected for compliance with the contract documents. DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS: FBD Vanguard Construction, Inc. completed all work, in compliance with approved Project Plans, Specifications, Special Provisions and Contract Change Orders, on or before the approved final contract date of May 17, 2018. City representatives have reviewed all contract documents and performed final inspections of the work, and have determined that all work has been

performed and completed in accordance with the contract documents, and as directed by the City Engineer. There are no liquidated damages to be assessed and there are no existing or potential contractor claims. Completion of the Project, therefore, is ready for acceptance. ALTERNATIVES: There is no reasonable alternative to the recommended action as the general public has beneficial use of the completed facilities. FISCAL IMPACT: The original bid amount was $198,787.50. The approved construction budget authorized at the time of bid award under City Council Resolution 77-2017 was $240,532.88 which included additional expenditure amounts for construction contingencies. The final construction cost, including contingencies and supplemental work, was $207,442.50 or an approximate 4% increase from the original contract amount. This increase was due to a need to repair additional curb, gutter and sidewalk beyond that originally anticipated.

Professional Services Agreement with Housing Land Trust

PREPARED BY:


STRATEGIC INITIATIVE(S): Quality of Life Economic Diversity & Innovation Effective & Efficient Government

RECOMMENDED ACTION(S): Adopt a Resolution approving a Professional Services Agreement between the City of Healdsburg and the Housing Land Trust of Sonoma County to provide professional services related to affordable home ownership for an initial one year term with an annual not to exceed amount of $41,000, and the authorization to extend the agreement two additional years

BACKGROUND: The City has expressed its commitment to affordable housing in its plans, policies and programs, including the City’s Adopted Housing Element and the Strategic Plan. These plans call for partnering with non-profit organizations to ensure preservation and retention of affordable housing units in the City. In September, 2014 the City contracted with the Housing Land Trust of Sonoma County to provide specialized professional services to facilitate affordable homeownership oversight. Housing Land Trust of Sonoma County has provided administrative oversight of the City's inclusionary units successfully qualifying and placing low-income families in the Sonata development, monitoring the City's stock of approximately 40 for-sale affordable units for program compliance and preventing conversion to market-rate, and participating in public hearings related to development projects and housing programs. Housing Land Trust of Sonoma County is a private, non-profit corporation that was established in 2002 and works in partnership with private developers and cities throughout Sonoma County to successfully provide home ownership opportunities to low and moderate-income families.

Packet Pg. 73

6.F

The City contracted once again with Housing Land Trust of Sonoma County in 2015. That agreement is expiring June 30, 2018. DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS: The proposed professional services agreement (“PSA”) furthers policies and programs found in the adopted Housing Element Update including: 

Policy H-C-2 Work with non-profit organizations to benefit from their expertise and the resources available to them for the development of affordable housing and its ongoing support.



Policy H-C-10 Support the Community Land Trust model of providing affordable home ownership for the local workforce.



Program H-10 Housing Program Administration. Contract with the Housing Land Trust of Sonoma County or another suitable organization or consulting firm if needed to administer affordable housing programs within the City.

With approval of the proposed PSA, the Housing Land Trust of Sonoma County will continue to: monitor the City's stock of for-sale affordable units for program compliance and preventing conversion to market-rate, maintain a list of potential buyers for affordable homes, conduct outreach, oversee the selection of potential buyers for affordable homes to ensure they meet eligibility requirements, develop all agreements between the involved parties through escrow to ensure the units remain affordable into the future, and work with interested developers and potential homebuyers in Healdsburg. Housing Land Trust of Sonoma County has provided the attached proposal with an annual not to exceed amount of $41,000. ALTERNATIVES: The City Council could direct staff to send out a request for proposals to other non-profit housing organizations. This alternative would delay implementation due to the time required to solicit, receive and evaluation proposals from other firms and complete the consultant selection process. Another alternative would be to perform the services in house. It is anticipated that additional staff would be required to take on this responsibility, if not full-time, at least part-time. The cost of additional staff, whether full-time or part-time, is projected to exceed the proposed annual contract amount. FISCAL IMPACT: The first two years of the agreement with Housing Land Trust of Sonoma County was anticipated in the proposed fiscal years 2018-19 and 2019-20 Affordable Housing - Measure S budget.

Packet Pg. 74

6.F

ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS: A professional services agreement is not a “project” pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) Guidelines 15378.(b)(4) because the contract is for professional services that do not involve commitment to any specific project that may impact the environment; therefore, no environmental review is required. Individual housing development projects will be reviewed in accordance with requirement of CEQA. ATTACHMENT(S): Housing Land Trust - Proposal Resolution

Appropriations Limit for Fiscal Year 2018-19

PREPARED BY:

Elizabeth Garcia, Finance Manager


RECOMMENDED ACTION(S): Adopt a Resolution adjusting the appropriations limit for fiscal year 2018-19

BACKGROUND: Article XIIIB of the California Constitution, commonly referred to as the Gann Initiative or Gann Appropriations Limit, was adopted by California voters in 1979 and placed limits on the amount of proceeds of taxes that State and local agencies can appropriate and spend each year. The limit is different for every agency and changes each year. The annual limit is based on the amount of tax proceeds that were authorized to be spent in fiscal year 1978-79, modified for changes in inflation and population. Inflationary adjustments are based on increases in the California per capita income or the increase in non-residential assessed valuation due to new construction. An adjustment is also made based on changes in the City of Healdsburg’s population. Section 7910 of the California Government Code requires a governing body to annually adopt, by resolution, an Appropriations Limit for the upcoming fiscal year. DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS: The adjusted Appropriations Limit for fiscal year 2018-19 is $29,618,462. This is the maximum amount of tax proceeds the City is able to appropriate and spend in fiscal year 2018-19. It is estimated that tax proceeds in the amount of $16,250,879 will be received during fiscal year 2018-19, which are below the limit calculation. ALTERNATIVES: No alternatives are presented as this informational report is a requirement by state law.

FISCAL IMPACT: There is no financial impact related to the proposed action. ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS: Pursuant to Title 14, the California Code of Regulations, Section 15302(c) of the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) guidelines, the proposed action is an administrative activity of the City that will not result in direct or indirect physical changes to the environment.

Amendment of Professional Services Agreement with Infosend, Inc.

PREPARED BY:


STRATEGIC INITIATIVE(S): Effective & Efficient Government Fiscal Responsibility

RECOMMENDED ACTION(S): Adopt a Resolution approving an amendment to the agreement between the City and InfoSend, Inc. for utility bill print and mail services, electronic bill presentment, and on-line bill payment of monthly utility bills, extending the agreement by one year, and increasing the not to exceed amount by $42,800 to $262,800, authorizing the City Manager to execute said agreement amendment, and authorizing the City Manager to extend the agreement up to two (2) additional one-year terms

BACKGROUND: On October 4, 2010, the City Council adopted a resolution approving a professional services agreement with InfoSend, Inc. for printing and mailing of utility bills and reminder notices for a one-year period in an amount not to exceed $75,000, including implementation fees. The City’s prior practice was to process, print and mail the bills and notices in-house. The outsourcing of these services resulted in an approximate annual savings of $57,500. Extensions were approved through March 31, 2013. On March 26, 2013 staff issued a Request for Proposal (“RFP”) for the utility bill print and mail services, electronic bill presentment, on-line bill payment, as well as additional services for reoccurring and one-time payment options. Six firms responded to the RFP and InfoSend, Inc. rated the highest based on their qualifications. On May 6, 2013, the City Council adopted a resolution authorizing the City Manager to execute a Professional Services Agreement with InfoSend, Inc. for the period April 1, 2013 through June 30, 2018 for a total agreement amount not to exceed $220,000.

Packet Pg. 83

6.H

DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS: On May 8, 2018, InfoSend, Inc. provided the City a proposal for the City’s consideration. The proposal includes a 2.9% CPI on certain, not all, services and supplies for an estimated additional cost of $300 per year, for a total annual amount of $42,800. This is the first instance in eight years InfoSend, Inc. has requested an increase in the costs of their services. Staff has begun researching utility billing software systems that not only meet our current and anticipated billing needs, but also would include a more robust customer portal and an integrated Meter Data Management system. It is likely that any transition to a new utility billing software will result in transferring of the print and mail services, electronic bill presentment, and on-line bill payment of monthly utility bills to the new utility billing software provider, ending the City’s agreement with InfoSend, Inc. In anticipation of this change, staff proposes the InfoSend, Inc. agreement be extended on a yearby-year basis; therefore limiting the City’s contractual obligation and providing the flexibility to end the agreement when desired. ALTERNATIVES: Bringing production back in-house would require the purchase and maintenance of sorting/folding/stuffing machinery, create an increased burden on staff resources, printer wear and tear, and costs for printer supplies, paper stock, and postage. Internal processing would also end the ability to provide electronic bill presentment and on-line bill payment until such time a new utility billing software is selected and implemented. FISCAL IMPACT: There is a nominal fiscal impact of an additional $300.00 of expenses per year above the current contract amount. The City’s obligation to pay shall be as follows: Period 1 – a twelve (12) month period beginning July 1, 2018 through June 30, 2019 in an amount not to exceed $42,800. Period 2 through 3 – optional additional two (2), one (1) year terms, ending June 30, 2020 and 2021 respectively, each in an amount not to exceed $42,800. There is no General Fund fiscal impact. The agreement is paid in full using funds from the four utility funds – water, wastewater, drainage and electric. ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS: Pursuant to Title 14, the California Code of Regulations, Section 15302(c) of the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) guidelines, the proposed action is an administrative activity of the City that will not result in direct or indirect physical changes to the environment.

BACKGROUND: State law dissolved all redevelopment agencies effective February 1, 2012. On July 16, 2012, the City Council designated the City of Healdsburg (“City”) to serve as the Successor Agency to the former RDA for the purposes of winding down the former RDA’s operations. Pursuant to Redevelopment Dissolution Legislation (AB X1 26 and AB1484), a successor agency must prepare and file with the California State Department of Finance (“DOF”) a Long Range Property Management Plan (“LRPMP”) that addresses the disposition and use of the real properties owned by the Successor Agency. On August 11, 2014, the DOF approved the Successor Agency’s LRPMP. In connection with approval of the LRPMP, the Oversight Board also approved a Disposition Process for the sales of properties. For 555 Piper Street, it was determined that the property would be offered for purchase to the Boys & Girls Clubs of Central Sonoma County. DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS: In September 2003 the former Redevelopment Agency purchased 555 Piper Street from the Boys and Girls Clubs in order to assist the organization pay for certain long term operational costs. The Boys and Girls Clubs of Central Sonoma County has been leasing the property from the

The Boys and Girls Clubs of Central Sonoma County provided the City an offer letter requesting to purchase to 555 Piper Street from the Agency for $1.00. Disposition of the property is required per the Redevelopment Dissolution Legislation. The Oversight Board will consider the sale the afternoon of June 4, 2018. If the Oversight Board and Successor Agency approve the sale, the California Department of Finance (“DOF”) must also approve the Oversight Board resolution approving the sale. The close of escrow will occur within 30 day after final approval from DOF. ALTERNATIVES: As sale of the property to the Boys & Girls Clubs of Central Sonoma County is required per the adopted LRPMP, no alternatives are recommended. If the Agency choses to not adopt the proposed Resolution, additional direction will be requested. FISCAL IMPACT: There is no direct fiscal impact to the General Fund related to the proposed action. Any proceeds from the sale of the property must be remitted by the Successor Agency to the Sonoma County Auditor Controller, which will distribute the net proceeds to the taxing entities in proportion to their share of the property tax base. ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS: Pursuant to Title 14, the California Code of Regulations, Section 15302(c) of the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) guidelines, the proposed action is an administrative activity of the City that will not result in direct or indirect physical changes to the environment.

Dear David & City Council Members, Attachment: Offer Letter (2011 : Sale of 555 Piper Street)

Boys & Girls Clubs have operated in Healdsburg since 1946, and have operated inside the location at 555 Piper Street (APN: 002-131-008) for decades. In the spirit of cultivating future generations of productive, caring, responsible citizens, we request that the City of Healdsburg sell the building at 555 Piper St. to Boys & Girls Clubs of Central Sonoma County for $1.00. This would enable the organization to conduct needed renovations to the building. Boys & Girls Clubs of Central Sonoma County is a result of the formerly independent Clubs in Cloverdale, Healdsburg, Windsor and Rohnert Park consolidating efforts with considerable expansion into other areas of the County including Santa Rosa. The organization has 39 locations with a budget of $10 million. The organization is recognized nationally as one of the largest and best organizations programmatically. The Clubs offer over 150 enrichment programs annually to over 7,000 young people. The organization is very stable financially and has a competent and experienced management team. Our organization has long valued the partnership with the City of Healdsburg and look forward to continue serving the youth in Healdsburg for generations to come.

Sincerely,

Jennifer Weiss Chief Executive Officer 1400 N. Dutton Avenue Ste. 14 Santa Rosa, CA 95401 | Tel: 707.528.7977 | Fax: 707.528.7933 | www.bgccsc.org

Economic and Planning Systems, Inc. Professional Services Agreement

PREPARED BY:

Raina Allan, Deputy City Clerk

STRATEGIC INITIATIVE(S): Effective & Efficient Government

RECOMMENDED ACTION(S): Adopt a Resolution approving a Professional Services Agreement with Economic and Planning Systems to provide professional services related to housing policy in Healdsburg in an amount not to exceed $35,000 and authorizing the City Manager to execute the agreement

BACKGROUND: The City has been engaging the services of Economic and Planning Systems, Inc. (“EPS”) over the last few years on various topics related to housing policy in Healdsburg. As housing in Healdsburg continues to be a topic of discussion, the City continues to need the services of EPS. At the April 3, 2017 City Council meeting, Council established a new Community Housing Committee and directed their work plan. The work plan included, updating the Housing Action Plan, reviewing the Growth Management Ordinance (“GMO”) Policies and Procedures, updating the Inclusionary Housing Ordinance, assessing alternatives for providing affordable housing, and reviewing the accessory dwelling unit ordinance. The City has also engaged the services of EPS to help address a number of Council directed work items. The current contracts with EPS are due to expire June 30, 2018. DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS: The City currently has four separate contracts with EPS: (1) Affordable Housing Funding Options; (2) Revise provisional Inclusionary Housing Ordinance; (3) Work plan for Growth Management Ordinance Policies and Procedures; and (4) On-call consulting services. The City is seeking to combine all four contracts into one contract and add two additional work items. The two additional work items being requested are: Growth Management Program Amendment Analysis; and In-lieu fee calculation and schedule preparation. Since the Community Housing and Development Director position has been vacated, the City has needed the services of EPS more than anticipated. In order to complete the work tasks assigned to the Community Housing Committee in April of 2017, the City is seeking additional funds for the current agreements.

Packet Pg. 103

6.J

Additionally, at the March 26, 2018 goal setting session, the Council discussed a goal to explore opportunities for development of rental and workforce housing. The Council determined that this goal could be accomplished by developing language for a GMO amendment to be placed on the November 2018 ballot. In order to move the GMO amendment forward, the City has requested the services of EPS to conduct a Growth Management Program Amendment Analysis. The total amount requested for the additional work items and to complete the remaining scope of the existing agreements is $35,000. With the approval of the proposed professional services agreement (PSA), Economic and Planning Systems will continue to: assist with drafting of an amended Inclusionary Housing Ordinance, prepare a technical analysis of the range of funding options available, review of the existing Policies and Procedures, assist in the preparation of staff reports, attend related CHC meetings, and provide on-call consulting services. to cover unforeseen technical efforts, drafting, or presentations by the Consultant at the CHC or City Council. Also as part of the proposed PSA, EPS will evaluate a proposed City Council-driven amendment to the City’s GMO and provided technical analysis and documentation for updated Inclusionary Housing Ordinance in lieu fee. ALTERNATIVES: Council could choose not to approve the proposed agreement and provide further direction to staff on how to proceed with the tasks. FISCAL IMPACT: The $35,000 value of the proposed professional services agreement with Economic and Planning Systems, Inc. was included in the fiscal year 2017-18 budget appropriations. ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS: A professional services agreement is not a “project” pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) Guidelines 15378.(b)(4) because the contract is for professional services that do not involve commitment to any specific project that may impact the environment; therefore, no environmental review is required. Individual housing development projects will be reviewed in accordance with requirement of CEQA. ATTACHMENT(S): Resolution Scope of Work

Work Plan Continued Support of Community Housing Committee Process and Related Implementation Efforts Task Descriptions

Prior work on the City’s Inclusionary Housing Program (IHO) has included preparing technical analysis of options for amending the IHO, contributing to staff reports, and attending related CHC meetings. This task involves additional work necessary with the CHC and staff to resolve the recommendations for updating the IHO, conducting any technical analysis necessary to establish an amended IHO, and assisting staff with bringing these matters to City Council and attending related Council meetings. This effort will include the following activities: 

Attend an additional CHC meeting



Assistance with drafting and presentation of amended Inclusionary Housing Ordinance

Task 1 Budget: $3,000 Task 2 – Affordable Housing Funding Options Prior work on the affordable housing funding options included preparing technical analysis of the range of funding options available, contributing to staff reports, and attending related CHC meetings. This task involves additional work necessary with the CHC and staff to resolve the funding recommendations, conducting any additional technical analysis necessary, and assisting staff with bringing these matters to City Council and attending related Council meetings.

Task 2 Budget: $2,000 Task 3 – Work Plan for GMO Policies and Procedures Prior work on the GMO Policies and Procedures included review of the existing Policies and Procedures, contributing to staff reports, and attending related CHC meetings. This task involves additional work necessary with the CHC and staff to resolve the Policies and Procedures focusing on how growth management allocations can incentivize desired “missing middle” income housing types and assisting staff with bringing these matters to City Council and attending related Council meetings.

Task 3 Budget: $2,000

Attachment: Scope of Work (2014 : Economic & Planning Systems - PSA)

Task 1 – Inclusionary Housing Ordinance Amendment Support

Task 4 – Growth Management Program Amendment Analysis This Task describes the effort needed to evaluate a proposed City Council-driven amendment to the City’s Growth Management Ordinance (GMO). This effort will be informed by the substantial work conducted by City staff and Consultant during 2015 and 2016 as part of the Housing Action Plan to determine the City’s housing needs and to revise the City’s existing GMO.

1

Packet Pg. 107


Task 4.1: Project Initiation and Specification

Consultant will meet and confer with City staff to review proposed technical work, obtain and/or confirm key assumptions, and to identify any further questions that may arise. This work will focus directly upon the current proposal for the amendment which is as follows: “Amend the GMO to exempt a fixed number of multifamily rental housing units from the 30 units per year currently allowed by the GMO. These rental units, intended for “middle income households” (units affordable to households earning up to 140% Area Median Income) would be subject to a regulatory agreement with the developer/owner of the units to ensure long term affordability.”

1) What is the current market for multifamily rental residential units in Healdsburg and what prospects may there be if such units were built in Healdsburg? 2) What portion of “housing need” in Healdsburg, as defined in the Housing Action Plan, falls within the “missing middle” income category? 3) What may be the housing size and bedroom count preferences of this income category? 4) Is construction of multifamily rental housing feasible in Healdsburg given current market pricing set against the cost to construct such units? 5) What would be the effect on feasibility of imposing an inclusionary requirement on multifamily rental housing at the various inclusionary requirements being contemplated (10% recommendation in the draft IHO amendment and the GMO proposal of 30% of units to 120% and 70% of the units to 140%, or 100% restricted units)? 6) What would be the effect of imposing a cap on rents based upon what would be affordable by a household with 140% AMI? (The analysis will study incomes between 121% and 160% to understand the full effects of the range of “missing middle” income levels.) 7) What other constraints in Healdsburg may limit production of multifamily rental housing (as discussed in Task 2, 3, and 4, below)? Task 4.2: Market and Feasibility Analysis

EPS will conduct market research into the current supply and pricing of multifamily housing in Healdsburg and the surrounding communities. This work, based upon commercially available data will establish current pricing, price trends, and scale of the existing market.


This proposed amendment leads to a series of technical questions, including:

Recognizing that market data may not fully capture future market demand and trends, EPS will conduct a series of interviews with local/regional developers with rental housing experience including representatives of for profit and non-profit developers. A key topic regarding multifamily rental housing will be its financial feasibility – do market rents currently justify construction in Healdsburg. A pro forma feasibility model will be used to address this question. This model will contrast “all-in” construction costs with current market rents to determine whether, even given allocations and available sites, any for profit developer would build multifamily rental housing in Healdsburg under the various inclusionary options being considered. Discussions with developers will address how developers perceive changes to affordability requirements in the City. This issue is addressed in more detail in Task 4.

Packet Pg. 108


Task 4.3: Update Housing Needs Assessment

It is recognized that market data alone is not the sole indicator of housing need. Accordingly, EPS will selectively update our Housing Needs Assessment (prepared for the City in 2015) to generate a current estimate of “housing need” by income category (HUD income quintiles). A key question not addressed by the original housing needs assessment was buyer/renter preference and also unit size preferences. In this instance we will focus on identifying the scale of “missing middle” household formation (along with unmet need) and determine a split between ownership and rental preference based on the economic realities of ownership housing prices in the market. Housing unit sizes (bedrooms) will be estimated by reviewing household size characteristics based on US Census data and other sources.

There are additional constraints that also need to be considered including the fact that the proposed Amendment to the GMO includes a price cap restriction (rents capped at and average of 140% of median income). There was also a question of whether such price restricted units could withstand the additional cost of providing affordable housing units (as currently proposed as part of the pending amendments to the City’s Inclusionary Housing Ordinance. Finally, there is the topic of land supply. At this point there simply is little land (less than three acres in several scattered parcels) designated for multifamily housing. Beyond what is already in the “pipeline” (Comstock, Replay, etc.), this land simply will not support a substantial increase in multifamily housing production. Task 4.5: Report and Presentation

EPS will contribute as requested to the Staff Report transmitting the GMO Amendment to the CHC and City Council. This task will include attendance at two Council meetings.

Task 4 Budget: $12,000 Task 5 – In Lieu Fee Calculation and Schedule Preparation This task involves the technical analysis and documentation for updated Inclusionary Housing Ordinance in lieu fee. While the City is developing amendments to the existing Inclusionary Housing Ordinance, it is necessary, as an interim step, to update the existing in lieu fee based on the existing IHO provisions as the current in lieu fee schedule is well below the actual full cost of providing an inclusionary unit. The research and technical analysis establishing the in-lieu fee will be updated in conformance with any amendments made to the IHO. This task will require the following activities: 

Update of technical factors leading to the calculation of the in-lieu fee including the “funding gap” (the difference between the cost to create an affordable housing unit and the amount affordable by the households qualifying for affordable housing.



Refinement of the technical analysis based upon review by City staff.



Preparation of a new in-lieu fee schedule based upon the City’s existing Ordinance.



Preparation of a revises in-lieu fee schedule based upon the City’s amended Ordinance.


Task 4.4: Other Housing Constraints

Packet Pg. 109


Task 6 – Additional On-Call Consulting Services As the CHC moves forward with its efforts to implement the Housing Action Plan and as the City considers different options or faces additional questions from the public or City Council there may be the need for additional economic or financial analysis by the Consultant. This task provides a budget to cover these unforeseen technical efforts, drafting, or presentations by the Consultant at the CHC or City Council. Such efforts will be requested and directed by the City Manager.


The tasks described above will be conducted by Walter Kieser, Senior Principal. Ashleigh Kanat, Executive Vice President, will provide management and technical support and direct EPS research staff as may be necessary to develop needed data analysis. The sum of the estimated task budgets presented above is $35,000. EPS will bill this budget on an “hourly rates not to exceed” basis, plus incidental expenses.

Resolution Ordering the Abatement of Noxious Weeds, Rubbish and Refuse

PREPARED BY:

Linda Collister, Fire Marshal


RECOMMENDED ACTION(S): (1) Hold the public hearing; and (2) adopt a Resolution ordering the abatement of noxious weeds, rubbish and refuse

BACKGROUND: Each year as part of its annual Weed Abatement Program, the City inspects parcels for the presence of weeds, brush and other debris that create or promote a fire hazard. At this time a majority of the lots in the City have been inspected. At the May 7, Council meeting the City Council declared a public nuisance to exist on properties listed on the 2018 Weed Abatement List, attached. The owners on the list were mailed a notice giving 30 days to abate the nuisance or protest the notice at this public hearing. If owners do not protest the notice and fail to abate the problem within the required timeframe, the City will complete the work using its own contractors. DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS: The program follows criteria established by the Government Code for this process and has been found to be the most effective manner to abate hazards on private property and provide a mechanism to obtain reimbursement for delinquent payments. ALTERNATIVES: The Council may choose to not order the abatement of the properties allowing the nuisance and fire hazards to exist; or the City’s contractor could abate the nuisance and a mechanism to obtain the reimbursement for the abatement of the properties would not exist.

Packet Pg. 111

7.A

FISCAL IMPACT: Funds to conduct forced abatement on properties owned by unresponsive homeowners are budgeted each year. When forced abatement does occur, an administrative charge is added to cover the contractor’s fee as well as staff time. If payment is not received, a lien is placed on the property’s tax roll and payment is received at a later date. ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS: The action is not a project as defined by the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) pursuant to State CEQA Guidelines Section 15038(b)(2) because the action consists of continuing administrative and maintenance activities.

Public Hearing to consider a Land Use Code Amendment (LUA 2018-03) amending Healdsburg Municipal Code Section 20.16.205 Temporary Signs

PREPARED BY:

Scott Duiven, Senior Planner


RECOMMENDED ACTION(S): Conduct a public hearing and introduce for first reading, by title only, an Ordinance amending Healdsburg Municipal Code Section 20.16.205 Temporary Signs

BACKGROUND: Temporary signs are often used to advertise local events, provide directions, promote business activities, support elections, etc. Healdsburg regulates temporary signs in order to prevent their excessive use, help preserve community aesthetic character, and promote traffic safety. In 2015 the United States Supreme Court, in Reed v. Town of Gilbert (2015) 135 S. Ct. 2218, held that, absent a compelling reason, a city may not provide preferential treatment in providing opportunities for posting noncommercial messages on signs based on the sign’s content. At issue in the case were three categories of noncommercial signs (directional signs, political signs, and what the city referred to as “ideological signs”). Although each was a type of noncommercial sign, the permitted size and number of such signs and the duration they could be posted varied based on the type of sign, or rather, the “content” of the sign. The Supreme Court applied what is called the “strict scrutiny” test for a content based regulation, which requires not only a compelling government interest to survive, but also that the government show that the regulations are narrowly tailored. The Town of Gilbert was unable to do so with respect to these different categories of noncommercial signs, and so the Court found the Town’s sign code provisions unconstitutional. In order to bring its Code into compliance with Gilbert, staff is recommending changes to the temporary signs section of Healdsburg’s sign ordinance to ensure content neutrality – the regulation of signs without consideration of the content of the sign message. Staff recommends that, consistent with Gilbert, opportunities for “temporary noncommercial signs” be provided

7.B

during “election periods.” This change would help the City avoid challenges that the City favors political messages over other types of noncommercial speech. In addition, the City should permit a couple of small temporary noncommercial signs at all times, particularly on residential parcels, an area on which the Code is currently silent. On May 8, 2018, the Planning Commission held a public hearing on this item and voted 6-0 to recommend approval of the ordinance. The Planning Commission asked for clarification on temporary signs promoting certain events, particularly those sponsored by non-profits and posted on City-owned property. The Community Services Department issues permits for both Recreation Park Fence Banners and Hanging Street Banners. In both of these instances, the City gives priority in the following order to: City of Healdsburg events, City of Healdsburg cosponsored events, non-profit organizations for Healdsburg community events, and other community events. DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS: The attached ordinance amends the provisions of the Healdsburg Municipal Code governing temporary sign provisions, to make them content neutral, as required by Gilbert. . Currently, the City’s Code singles out political signs for regulation which, depending on enforcement, could run afoul of Gilbert’s holding that sign regulations must be content neutral. The proposed changes are summarized as follows: Definitions: The proposed amendments to Section 20.16.205(A) add new terms to the definitions section. General Temporary Commercial Sign Regulations: The current Code appears to be directed at commercial uses. In the suggested amendments, Section 20.16.205(B) has been retitled to General Temporary Commercial Sign Regulations in order to differentiate these types of temporary signs from noncommercial signs. Temporary commercial signs may be erected in commercial, office, and industrial districts for up to 30 days and have the same location, height and size restrictions as required for permanent signs in the district. Temporary commercial signs may be posted up to three times during a 12-month period. Temporary Noncommercial Sign Regulations: This new section addresses the need to allow residential properties some noncommercial signage at all times. In this case, each residential parcel is permitted up to two temporary noncommercial signs, which may not exceed six square feet per face, may be double faced, may not exceed four feet in height, may be placed in the front or side yard of any property provided that they do not encroach into any public right-of-way, and may not be illuminated. Additional temporary noncommercial signs are allowed on residential properties during election periods as described in the next section. With respect to commercial properties, staff recommends adding a “substitution clause” to allow a property in a commercial, office, or industrial district to substitute a noncommercial message for all or part of the commercial or noncommercial message on any already permitted sign. This doubles as allowing opportunities for noncommercial speech while avoiding additional sign clutter on commercial properties.

Packet Pg. 128

7.B

Election Period Regulations: Currently, the Land Use Code regulates political and campaign signs in Section 20.16.205(C). Staff recommends eliminating this section and adding Section 20.16.205(D), titled Election Period Temporary Freestanding Noncommercial Sign Regulations, which would subject political signs to the same regulations as other noncommercial signs and, in addition, allow additional opportunities for noncommercial signs to be posted during election periods. An election period is defined as the period commencing 90 days before any national, state, or local election in which city electors may vote up through the date of the election. In residential districts, each parcel would be permitted up to six additional temporary freestanding noncommercial signs during an election period ,in addition to the two permitted at all times. These signs may not exceed six square feet in total area per face, may be double-faced, are limited to four feet in height, may be placed in the front or side yard, and may not be illuminated. In commercial, office, and industrial districts, each parcel is allowed up to 50 square feet of additional temporary freestanding noncommercial signs. The text clarifies that up to 100 square feet of area is permitted if the signs are double-faced. The current Code allows a total of 50 square feet which, if double-faced, would equate to 25 square feet. The bottom of a temporary freestanding noncommercial sign in commercial, office, and industrial districts may not exceed four feet in height and the top of the sign may not exceed 10 feet in height. These signs may be placed in the front or side yards and may not be illuminated. All additional temporary freestanding noncommercial signs allowed during an election period must be removed within 15 days of the end of the election period, which is the same removal period under the current Code. Subdivision Signs: Other than renumbering this section to Section 20.16.205(E), there are no proposed changes. ALTERNATIVES: The Council could reject the proposed Land Use Code Amendments or direct staff to further revise the document. If changes are recommended that were not previously considered and discussed by the Planning Commission, the project may need to be referred back to the Planning Commission for consideration. FISCAL IMPACT: The ordinance amendments adopting revised standards for temporary signs would have no direct fiscal impact. ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS: The proposed amendments will not allow for, or encourage any more development than is already anticipated under the City’s existing General Plan, or otherwise allow for or promote physical changes in the environment and, therefore, it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the proposed amendments may have a significant effect on the environment.

Growth Management Ordinance Amendment

PREPARED BY:

David Mickaelian, City Manager

STRATEGIC INITIATIVE(S): Quality of Life Effective & Efficient Government

RECOMMENDED ACTION(S): Receive the staff report, consider any modifications if necessary and, by motion, direct staff to return with the following, or revised, ballot language for adoption at the June 18, 2018 City Council meeting. In order to encourage construction of workforce rental housing, shall the City of Healdsburg amend the existing Growth Management Ordinance to allow for an additional average of 60 multi-family rental units per year, with rents capped 160% of the Sonoma County Area Median Income?

BACKGROUND: At its goal setting session on March 26, 2018, the Council discussed a goal to explore opportunities for development of rental and workforce housing. The Council determined that this goal could be accomplished by developing language to amend the City’s Growth Management Ordinance (“GMO”), Chapter 17.24 of the City’s Municipal Code. The proposed amendment would be placed on the November 2018 ballot. On April 23, 2018, the Council conducted a joint special with the Community Housing Committee to discuss a possible amendment to the GMO, along with proposals from Council Members McCaffery and Gold. At the conclusion of the meeting, the Council asked staff to study the following concept: Amend the GMO to exempt a fixed number of multifamily rental housing units from the 30 units per year currently allowed by the GMO. These rental units, intended for “middle income households” (units affordable to households earning up to 140% Area Median Income) would be subject to a regulatory agreement with the developer/owner of the

Packet Pg. 146

8.A

units to ensure long term affordability. Staff presented its analysis at the May 21, 2018 Council meeting. Staff concluded that deed restricted units at 140% AMI would likely not be feasible for developers. Council considered the written and oral staff reports, along with public comment, at its May 21, 2018 meeting. Following comprehensive discussion, Council directed staff to return with draft ballot language, as well as an analysis, of the following proposal: 

Continue allowance of 30 growth management allocations per year;



Allow for a maximum of 60 additional allocations per year;



The additional 60 allocations must be restricted to multifamily housing rental units. The multifamily rental units: o Would be price restricted to households earning from 121 to 160% of area median income; and o Would not be subject to the City’s Inclusionary Housing Ordinance.

The City Council also discussed ongoing monitoring of price restricted units and whether annual certification and income qualification should be required. The Council found that flexibility should be employed in this regard, to ensure that if a resident’s income increased, he or she would not need to leave the unit, and so that ongoing monitoring costs to the developer and the City could be reduced. The Council also requested that staff analyze the feasibility of mixed income projects that rent to tenants with a variety of incomes, with the average being 140% of area median income. The idea was that projects with multifamily rental units affordable to households earning from 121 to 160% of area median income should strive to achieve an average of renters at 140% of area median income, requiring a mix of income ranges served. The Council directed staff to return with draft ballot language as well as analysis of the proposal. The ballot language would amend the current GMO to state the basic framework for the Growth Management program. Details, such as how the 60 multifamily rental units would be allocated and how affordability would be monitored over time, could be addressed in the Growth Management Policies and Procedures. Growth Management Ordinance History In November 2000, the voters of the City of Healdsburg established residential growth control. Measure M limited residential building permits for new construction to an average of 30 units per year and no more than 90 over a 3-year period, the first of which commenced January 1, 2001. In accordance with State law, units meeting State definitions for affordability (affordable to households earning 120% or below area median income) and accessory dwelling units are exempt from the limit. In November 2016, the City placed Measure R on the ballot. The Measure asked voters to increase inclusionary requirements on new residential development to 30%, remove existing restrictions on the number of new residential units allowed annually, and adopt and periodically

Packet Pg. 147

8.A

amend new growth management measures in conjunction with updates of the General Plan Housing Element. Measure R failed 59.34% to 40.66%. The existing GMO, adopted in 2000, thus remains in place. DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS: Feasibility of Multifamily Rental Projects for Households of 121 to 160% AMI In addition to providing direction regarding ballot language, the City Council also requested information regarding the likelihood of the amendment having the desired effect of incentivizing production of multifamily rental units affordable to the “missing middle” income category. Staff’s response to this request for information follows. Multifamily Rental Project Feasibility for Households of 121 to 160% AMI While there is little market information regarding demand and pricing for multifamily rental housing, previous analysis indicates that there will likely be demand for such housing given the persistent housing shortage. However, it is an untested market that can only be tested by actually making such projects possible (from a regulatory and land supply basis) and observing how the market responds. The market data that does exist, along with the “rent threshold analysis” conducted to determine the minimum amount of average rent needed to attract investment and construction of such housing, suggests that such housing can be feasible in Healdsburg given a supply of land available at a competitive price. The rental cap, set at 160 percent of median household income, would be $2,729 (based on information provided at the May 21, 2018 City Council meeting) well above the “rent threshold” (estimated to be approximately $2,400 per month) and also existing market pricing. This means that the 160 percent rent cap is presently above what is likely to be market rent and that rents, simply by market operation, will be below the cap. As provided at the May 21st, 2018 City Council meeting, it is valuable to consider what households across the range of household income categories can afford. Table 1 shows maximum monthly rents by household income category (a 3-person household is selected as the point of reference). It is notable in the context of the existing discussion regarding “missing middle” households with incomes at 140% are shown to be able to afford a monthly rent just below $2,400 per month.

Packet Pg. 148

8.A

Accordingly, while there may be policy-based reasons for establishing the cap, it will not in our opinion, at least for the foreseeable future, limit feasibility of new multifamily rental housing. Regarding the topic of regulation to assure continuing availability of the rental units to “missing middle” households, there is evidence to suggest that the market for rental units is affected by any required regulatory agreements (i.e., required tenant qualification and certification as required for price restricted and subsidized affordable housing units). Recent experience in Healdsburg, reflecting broader trends, suggests that even moderate-income households (80 to 120 percent of median income) have an aversion to such qualification and certification requirements. Here, though, if the developer does not receive federal or State funding or tax credits, the units would not be subject to the federal and State qualification and certification requirements. Instead, the City could create its own approach to such qualification and certification requirements, minimizing the constraints or developing alternative methods of assuring that the new rental housing units remain available and prioritized for local working households. The City would need to be cautious about not running afoul of the ballot language, assuming the ballot language requires the units be deed restricted to tenants with a certain specified income. The City can develop these parameters in the Growth Management Ordinance Policies and Procedures. Feasibility of Multifamily Rental Projects for Households Averaging 140% AMI City Council expressed a desire to assure that the multifamily rental units are available to tenants with a variety of incomes, with an average of 140% AMI. Prior analysis of this proposal prepared for the City Council’s May 21, 2018 meeting indicated that households at the 140 percent of median income would just barely meet the construction feasibility threshold. Any attempt to achieve this target would make it unlikely that developers would construct such units. Requiring an average of 140% AMI, rather than requiring all units rent for 140%, does not appear to solve this problem. Moreover, any attempts by the developer or property owner to achieve an average of 140% AMI will be difficult to measure or regulate over time. Considerations for Allowing 60 Multifamily Rental Units per Year in the Growth

Packet Pg. 149

8.A

Management Ordinance A key to achieving the objective of building multifamily rental housing will be having Growth Management allocations available for projects that are proposed. Council requested staff prepare ballot language providing allocations for an additional 60 units per year of deed restricted, multifamily rental units. Generally, multifamily rental housing is built by companies that require a minimum size to offset their effort and investment. For planning purposes, staff suggests Council anticipate projects of 40 to 60 units (although some of these units could occur in the context of “mixed income” projects). Given the likely scale of the market and other factors, 60 units per year is a reasonable number allowing the City to consider projects of the estimated minimum unit count. It would be ideal for the allocation, as is the case with the existing Growth Management Ordinance, to be an “average” over a three-year period, allowing, as opportunities arise in a given year to exceed 60 units (thus proportionately reducing allocations in subsequent years), but never to exceed 180 in a three-year period. Table 2 Missing Middle Production Needs (through 2022) – following information was provided to Council on May 21, 2018

A key assumption in the original Housing Needs Assessment is the “40 percent Target” reflected on Table 2. At the present time, the number of local employees living in Healdsburg is approximately 33 percent; as a part of the preparation of the Housing Action Plan it was determined that a “target” of 40 percent was both sound and a good policy objective. As shown in Table 2, short range housing need in Healdsburg, based upon employment growth and increasing households living and working in Healdsburg, is dominated (at 56 percent) by households requiring “affordable” (i.e., price-restricted) housing. The balance, 44 percent, is shown to be capable of paying market prices. Proposed Ballot Language Based on the analysis provided in this staff report and City Council’s direction from the May 21, 2018 Council meeting, the ballot language for the November 2018 ballot could be as follows: MEASURE___: GROWTH MANAGEMENT ORDINANCE AMENDMENT In order to encourage construction of workforce rental housing, shall the City of Healdsburg amend the existing Growth Management Ordinance to allow for an additional average of 60 multi-family rental units per year, with rents capped 160% of the Sonoma

County Area Median Income? Proposed amendments to the current Growth Management Ordinance Consistent with Council’s direction, HMC Chapter 17.24, the City’s current Growth Management Ordinance, could be amended as follows (changes in red): 17.24.010 Purpose and findings. The people of the City of Healdsburg, hereinafter called “the City,” find and declare as follows: A. The recent rapid increase in residential growth is dramatically changing our small town character and negatively impacting our quality of life. B. Growth management, in the form of annual allocations of residential building permits as provided in HMC 17.24.020, will ensure a more responsible growth rate and help maintain open space surrounding the City. C. Rapid residential growth is a matter of continuing concern to the people of the City because it could tax the City’s ability to provide adequate public facilities to meet the requirements of that growth. (Ord. 970, 2000.) 17.24.020 Annual building permit allocations. A. Subject to the exclusions listed in HMC 17.24.030, permits for the construction of new residential units within the incorporated boundaries of the City shall be limited to an average of 30 units per year and in no case shall exceed 90 for any three-year period. B. In addition to the 90 units permitted by HMC 17.24.020(A), a maximum of an average of sixty (60) units per year, not to exceed 180 units in a three year period, may be permitted, so long as the additional units are: 1. Multi-family housing rental units; and 2. Subject to a regulatory agreement with the City requiring that the tenants earn between 121% and 160% of the Sonoma County Area Median Income. The maximum of sixty (60) units subject to this subsection (HMC 17.24.020(B)) shall not be subject to the provisions of HMC 20.20.030. C. The initial three-year period shall begin as of the effective date of this chapter, January 1, 2001, and terminate December 31, 2003, and each successive three-year period shall follow in order. (Ord. 970, 2000.) This three-year period shall apply to units permitted by HMC 17.24.020(A) and (B). 17.24.030 Exemptions. Low income and affordable residential units, as defined by the State Department of Housing and Urban Development, are exempted from the limitations established in HMC 17.24.020. (Ord. 970, 2000.)

Packet Pg. 151

8.A

17.24.040 Existing law. This chapter supersedes and repeals any City ordinance, general plan provision or policy or any provision of the City’s zoning code which conflicts with it. (Ord. 970, 2000.) Council is asked to confirm the Growth Management Ballot Language by motion. Staff will then come back on June 18, 2018 and ask Council to formally adopt the ballot language by resolution. The resolution will include a draft of the actual Ordinance, as amended by the proposal, to be attached to the ballot measure. Next Steps Tonight – By motion adopt language and / or provide direction to staff regarding any changes Council would like to see to the GMO ballot language and / or draft amendments to the GMO June 18, 2018 - Council should do the following: By resolution, adopt the ballot language including amendment to the current GMO and draft Ordinance to be considered on the November 2018 ballot; and Direct Staff to prepare an analysis of the potential environmental impacts of the proposed amendments to the Growth Management Ordinance under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). August 6, 2018 – Council to adopt resolution establishing November 6, 2018 as the date for a municipal election on a proposed ballot measure seeking voter approval to amend the growth management ordinance; requesting the Sonoma County Clerk to conduct such an election; and requesting the City Attorney prepare and file an impartial analysis of the proposed ballot measure. Summary The proposed amendment to the Growth Management Ordinance creates an opportunity for there to be production of new multifamily rental housing in Healdsburg, a market that has been restricted by the existing 30 unit cap on market-rate housing. As such, it is a positive step toward achieving Housing Element and Housing Action Plan objectives and meeting the housing needs of Healdsburg’s working families. Other, complementary actions, as previously discussed, will be needed including amending land use regulations (i.e., density restrictions) and rezoning property to allow such use in the appropriate locations in the City. The market is also untested and cyclical so there is no absolute assurance that such development will occur. As part of the City’s broader efforts to stimulate housing production for the City’s working families, it is a key ingredient and thus has merit. ALTERNATIVES: The Council may wish to consider the following: 1. AMI – Council may direct staff to increase, decrease, or remove the requirement that multi-family rental units be restricted to a rental cap of 160% of the Sonoma County AMI.

Packet Pg. 152

8.A

2. Capping units at an average of 60 units per year - Council may direct staff to increase or decrease the average units that can be built per year. 3. Rolling over unused allocations during the 3 – year cycle – Council could direct staff to allow for any unused allocations specific to the multi – family rental units from 121 – 160% AMI to roll over into the next three year cycle. 4. Council may also direct staff not to proceed with a City-sponsored GMO measure on the November 2018 ballot. FISCAL IMPACT: General Fund resources would fund costs related to ballot measure preparation including reimbursement to the Sonoma County Elections Department for any costs associated with Healdsburg's Municipal Election. According to the City Clerk, the cost is between $0.60 and $1.50 per registered voter, depending on the size of the ordinance in the sample ballot. Based on 6,652 registered voters in the City, election costs would be in the range of $3,991 - $9,978.

STRATEGIC INITIATIVE(S): Quality of Life Economic Diversity & Innovation Effective & Efficient Government Fiscal Responsibility Infrastructure & Facilities

RECOMMENDED ACTION(S): By motion, approve City Council Goals for Fiscal Year 2018-19

BACKGROUND: The City Council adopted the City of Healdsburg’s Strategic Plan, Pathway to Sustainability, on July 21, 2013. At the time the Strategic Plan was adopted, it was determined that Council would evaluate their goals annually in conjunction with the fiscal year to better match resources with Council priorities. Prior to the beginning of the goal setting process Council also gave direction to staff regarding Measure V expenditures. A number of the projects/allocations identified during the Measure V discussion are related to the goals Council discussed. At the outset of the goal setting process, Councilmembers were asked to submit their goals for fiscal year 2018-19. Staff collated the goals received from individual Councilmembers and grouped them by topic, identifying those topics with the greatest Council interest. On March 26th the City Council held a special meeting to discuss the goals, look for areas of consensus, and identify topics with the highest priorities. During the special goal setting meeting the Council identified community services, community development, and housing as the topics of highest priority; followed by city facilities/infrastructure, connectivity/transportation, and fiscal responsibility. On April 9th the Council reviewed and discussed the draft City Council goals for fiscal year 2018-19 and provided refinements to the draft goals and outcomes in anticipation of them being considered for adoption.

Approval of FY 2018-19 and FY 2019-20 Operating Budgets and 2018-23 Capital Improvement Program

PREPARED BY:



RECOMMENDED ACTION(S): Consider approving the proposed FY 2018-19 and FY 2019-20 Operating Budgets and the proposed 2018-23 Capital Improvement Program and adopt the following resolutions: a. Resolution of the City Council of the City of Healdsburg adopting the budget for fiscal year 2018-19; b. Resolution of the City Council of the City of Healdsburg adopting the budget for fiscal year 2019-20; c. Resolution of the City Council of the City of Healdsburg adopting the capital improvement program for fiscal years 2018-23; d. Resolution of the City Council of the City of Healdsburg reestablishing the list of authorized positions.

BACKGROUND: While the City Council began its review of the FY 2018-20 Proposed Biennial Operating Budget and 2018-23 Five-year Proposed Capital Improvement Program at the April 9, 2018 Community Input Budget Session, where the Government Budget 101 and current year General Fund financial update was presented, the Budget process actually began in January with the Measure V survey. The survey questions were reviewed in January by the Council, mailed and posted in February, with the results revealed and allocations approved in March. The process continued with two additional Budget Workshops held on May 14, 2018 and May 17, 2018, with presentations of the General Fund, Utility and Special Revenue funds. As allowed for in the Municipal code, the Council may amend or supplement the budget at any time after its adoption by majority vote of the Council members. The City Manager has the

Packet Pg. 166

8.C

authority to make administrative adjustments to the budget as long as those changes will not have a significant policy impact nor affect budgeted year-end fund balances. DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS: As proposed, the estimated June 30, 2018 ending unrestricted General Fund fund balance exceeds the 30% operating reserve by $439,541. This amount is reduced by $298,839 from $738,380, the figure that was presented on May 14. This difference accounts for a reduction to the administration applied to the Affordable Housing – Measure S Fund. A change has been made to the Community Services Fund figures presented in the workshops. Several years ago the City implemented a per participant fee for sports associations to address additional mowing and maintenance needs of school fields for association activities. As part of the school district’s reimbursement agreement with the City, regular mowing costs are being covered by the school district and the additional mowing and maintenance costs will be absorbed with increased TOT revenue. Accordingly, the revenue estimated during the workshops has been reduced by $6,500 each year to take into consideration for the change in policy. The estimated June 30, 2018 ending unrestricted Community Services Fund fund balance exceeds the 30% operating reserve by $869,245. All funds are meeting and exceeding the Council adopted reserve policy. Capital Improvement Program Included in the proposed biennial budget is a capital improvement program totaling $20,165,370. On May 22, 2018, based on their review, the Planning Commission found the proposed FY 2018-23 Capital Improvement Program to be consistent with the City’s General Plan. The Capital Improvement Program is not subject to CEQA review, as each project contained in the document will require an independent environmental assessment appropriate to the nature of the project prior to its implementation. Authorized Positions Staff as part of the budget presentations, detailed the changes in requested staffing. The proposed resolution updates the list of authorized positions in accordance with the changes presented by staff. ALTERNATIVES: The City’s current budget authority will expire on June 30, 2018. If the Council chooses not to adopt the budget at this time, staff may schedule a special meeting and bring back additional information providing another opportunity for adoption before a resolution to extend the spending authority from the current fiscal year is necessary. FISCAL IMPACT: The approval of the proposed resolutions establishes the fiscal years 2018-19 and 2019-20 budget authority.

CalPERS Contract Amendment

PREPARED BY:



RECOMMENDED ACTION(S): Adopt upon second reading, by title only and waiving reading of the text, Ordinance No. 1175 authorizing an amendment to the contract between the City Council of the City of Healdsburg and the Board of Administration of the California Public Employees’ Retirement System

BACKGROUND: The City of Healdsburg, Mid-Management and Professional Employees Association (“MidManagement”), Healdsburg Police Officers’ Association (“HPOA”), and International Association of Fire Fighters (“IAFF”) reached Memorandum of Understanding (“MOU”) agreements for the period July 1, 2017 through June 30, 2020. As part of those agreements “classic members” (under the Public Employees’ retirement Pension Reform Act of 2013 within the meaning of PEPRA) agreed to share in the employer contribution to California Public Employees’ Retirement System (“CalPERS”). The City’s employer share is currently 19.723% for “classic” safety employees. As part of the MOUs, the classic safety employees in Mid-Management, HPOA and IAFF agreed to contribute an additional one percent (1%) towards the employer contribution as of the effective date of the amendment to the contract, reducing the employer’s current rate of 19.723% to 18.723%. The same employees agreed to contribute an additional one percent (1%) as of July 1, 2018, and another additional one percent (1%) as of July 1, 2019. Each incremental contribution will require separate contract amendments. The proposed is the second of three contract amendments. The first was completed in October 2017. The additional employee contributions shall be credited to each member’s account as normal contributions and will be included in the refund of accumulated contributions to members who

8.D

separate from CalPERS covered employment and who elect to withdraw their contributions. The employer’s rate will be reduced by the agreed upon percentage of cost sharing. These changes can occur upon amendment to the contract with CalPERS for “Classic” safety members. DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS: At its meeting of May 7, 2018, the City Council adopted a resolution of intent, and introduced for first reading the proposed ordinance authorizing an amendment to the contract between the City Council of the City of Healdsburg and the Board of Administration of the California Public Employees’ Retirement System. With the adoption of the Resolution of the intent by the Council on May 7, pursuant to Government Code §20469, a secret ballot election was held by the employees affected by the amended contract. The ballot results were successful with the majority of the affected members voting in favor of amending the contract. The contract amendment will be become effective 30 days after the proposed ordinance adoption, with the payroll period beginning July 8, 2018. No changes were made to the proposed ordinance presented to Council on May 7. The summary of the ordinance was published in accordance with the Government Code. ALTERNATIVES: The City Council could choose not to approve the amendment to the CalPERS contract. If this is the case, additional direction would be requested of Council as this amendment is required to fully implement the approved MOUs. FISCAL IMPACT: Cost savings realized from the approved Mid-Management, HPOA and IAFF MOUs have been incorporated into the proposed fiscal year 2018-19 budget. ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS: Pursuant to Title 14, the California Code of Regulations, Section 15302(c) of the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) guidelines, the proposed action is an administrative activity of the City that will not result in direct or indirect physical changes to the environment.

PUBLIC COMMENTS Jeff Civian, President of Healdsburg Little League, spoke to the Commission about per participant user fees for Little League and Soccer programs and requested that the commission agendize a discussion about the fee at a future meeting. 3. PRESENTATIONS a) Sonoma County Regional Parks 1/8th Percent Sales Tax Measure, Bert Whitaker, Director, Sonoma County Regional Parks Bert Whitaker, Director of Sonoma County Regional Parks, presented information on the funding needs for Regional Parks and a potential 1/8th of 1 percent sales tax ballot measure being considered for this fall. 4. OLD BUSINESS a) Tuesdays in the Plaza Community Feedback Facilities and Events Supervisor Dave Jahns presented feedback from outreach efforts on the Tuesdays in the Plaza concert series. Participants shared their opinions on the policies and rules, venue and street closures, music selection, and general miscellaneous items. While consensus was that the concert series is not broken, ongoing review for potential improvements is always a good idea. Discussion included enforcing current rules, signage, creating a space for kids activities, band selection, and dogs at the event. Commissioner Mota, seconded by Scott , made a motion to make the Tuesdays in the plaza concert series a petfree zone area. Motion made on a voice vote. Motion carried 6 – 1 (Dobley opposed). 5. NEW BUSINESS a) Healdsburg Jazz Festival Request to Allow Consumption of Alcohol and Waive 24-hour Use Restriction The commission reviewed a request from the Healdsburg Jazz Festival, in conjunction with the Community Services Department, to allow the Consumption of Alcohol and waive the 24-hour use restriction to accommodate a Jazz Festival Village June 1-10 in West Plaza Park. Commissioner Dobley, seconded by Herrod, made a motion to recommend to City Council approval of the request. Motion carried 5 – 2 (Tripathi and Scott opposed). b) Montage Park The Commission received an update on the proposed Montage Park planning, funding, and timeline associated with the Montage development. Considerable discussion ensued about the terms of the development agreement that moves funding from the park to the proposed fire substation if the City fails to make payments for the developer’s costs for the fire station above $1.75 million. Commissioner Dobley, seconded by Herrod, made a motion that it is unacceptable to use the promised $3 million funds for the development of the Montage Park to any other purposes. Doing so will be taking away what was promised to the community. Funds dedicated to parks need to be used for parks and parks alone.

a) Age Friendly Community Designation The Commission received a report on work related to the Age-Friendly City initiative that could result in Healdsburg being designated an Age-Friendly City. The Age-Friendly Cities and Communities program is an international effort launched in 2006 by the World Health Organization (WHO) to help cities prepare for rapid population aging and the parallel trend of urbanization. The program has participating communities in more than 20 nations, as well as 10 affiliates representing more than 1,000 communities. The U.S. Census Bureau estimated the percentage of individuals in Healdsburg aged 60+ in 2016 at 28.6%. With more than 10,000 Americans turning 65 each day through 2030, the percentage of older adults living in our community continues to grow. Adapting the community’s structure to the needs of a growing older population is sound preparation to meet the challenges of this demographic change. Commissioner Smith, seconded by Fitzgerald, made a motion to recommend to City Council that Healdsburg be designated as an Age-Friendly City by the World Health Organization b) FY18-20 Budget The commission received a presentation on the FY18-20 proposed operating and capital budgets.
