ADMINISTRATIVE REPORT
MEETING DATE: 9/2/2015 Consent - Ordinances c.
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council
FROM: Virginia Gennaro, City Attorney
DATE: 8/13/2015
WARD:
SUBJECT: Adoption of the following Ordinances amending various sections of the
Municipal Code:
Amending Section 2.04.080 relating to City Council Consent
Calendar Agenda Items.
1.
Amending Section 5.50.100 relating to Advertising on Taxicabs.2.
Amending Section 8.27.010 relating to Maintenance of property.3.
Adding Chapter 15.56 relating to Expedited Permitting
Procedures for Small Residential Rooftop Solar Systems.
4.
Amending Section 16.32.060 relating to Tract Map
Improvements.
5.
Amending Section 17.60.070 relating to Specialized Signs.6.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends adoption of the proposed ordinance amendments.
BACKGROUND:
Periodically, various Departments throughout the City request changes to the Bakersfield
Municipal Code which are minor in nature. Generally, the changes are being sought to make a
section read better or to reflect current practice or correct typographical errors, or to comply
with new rules and regulations. While a code clean-up was done a few months ago, a few
other minor changes to the Municipal Code have since been identified, and one change in
particular is required to be made by September 30, 2015, due to changes in State Law.
The following is a list of ordinance changes that are being recommended by Staff:
1. BMC Section 2.04.080. This amendment removes the provision that audio tapes of Council
meetings be preserved in perpetuity. The City Council approved retention schedule for the
City Clerk contains a generous retention period of 5 years.
2. BMC Section 5.50.100. This amendment clarifies that advertising in and on taxis must be
in accordance with Bakersfield Municipal Code section 17.60.090, which governs allowable
signs on all vehicles including taxicabs.
3. BMC Chapter 8.27.010. This amendment clarifies Code Enforcement’s authority to abate
the public nuisance of accumulation of junk, trash, or debris that is visible to the public. This
amendment is necessary to allow Code Enforcement to exercise their authority in areas that
are not necessarily adjacent to public streets. It also makes this section consistent with the rest
of the property maintenance chapter.
4. BMC Chapter 15.56. This amendment adds a Chapter to the Municipal Code in order to be
in compliance with Assembly Bill 2188, which requires the City to adopt an ordinance that
creates an expedited, streamlined permitting process for small residential rooftop solar energy
systems. The associated ordinance is intended to satisfy that requirement. The ordinance
codifies the requirements of AB 2188, such as accepting applications electronically, directing
the City’s Building Official to develop a checklist of all requirements with which small rooftop
solar energy systems shall comply to be eligible for expedited review, and authorizing the
Building Official to administratively approve such applications
5. BMC Section 16.32.060. This amendment deletes reference to the Northeast Bakersfield
planned sewer area. The sewer improvements that were being funded by the Northeast
Bakersfield planned sewer area have been completed and fully paid for by collected
assessments. As such, there is no longer a need for this planned sewer area.
6. BMC Section 17.60.070. This amendment changes the allowable time for erecting political
election signs from sixty to ninety days before an election to be consistent with State law.
The amendments had first reading on August 12, 2015.

Indemnification Agreement.2.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends approval of resolutions and agreements.
BACKGROUND:
In 2008, the State of California approved legislation that enabled cities and counties to create
Property Assessed Clean Energy (PACE) Programs to provide a mechanism for property
owners to fund energy efficiency, water efficiency and other renewable energy projects,
utilizing their property as collateral. The legislation authorized the creation of assessment
districts, whereby commercial and residential property owners could finance the upfront capital
costs of these projects and repay the amount financed through a contractual assessment on
their property. In most cases, the contractual assessments are recorded as a lien against the
subject property, entered in the County roll and collected through the property owner's property
tax bill at the same time and in the same manner as traditional property assessments. The
concept is that the assessments that repay the efficiency project loan amount, plus any
applicable interest, run with the property until the repayment term expires.
In response to this movement, some cities and counties began to set up, administer and fund
local PACE programs. At the same time, several statewide PACE programs were being
developed to provide cities and counties a turnkey PACE option that did not place
administrative of financial liability burdens on the cities that participated in them.
In 2010, the City of Bakersfield and the County of Kern joined a large number of other cities
and counties throughout California in approving participation in the CaliforniaFIRST PACE
program. This program is sponsored by California Statewide Communities Development
Authority (California Communities), a Joint Powers Authority established by the League of
California Cities and the California Association of Counties. Again, this was done in an effort
to provide City residents and businesses with the opportunity to access a statewide PACE
financing program.
Since that time, the City has expanded the number of PACE program options available to City
residents and businesses. With the growth and utilization of PACE programs, additional PACE
programs have been established in a similar fashion as CaliforniaFIRST, that is they are
statewide programs that provide PACE financing totally independent of the City. All that is
needed for City residents to access these programs is the approval of the programs to operate
in the City of Bakersfield, which is done through a resolution. Below are the current PACE
program providers, and the Joint Powers Authorities that have established them, which have
been authorized to operate in the City of Bakersfield:
2010 - CaliforniaFIRST - sponsored by California Statewide Communities Development
Authority
2013 - Figtree - sponsored by California Enterprise Development Authority
2014 - HERO PACE Program - sponsored by Western Riverside Council of Governments
The action before the Council under this item is to further expand the PACE program providers
operating in the City of Bakersfield to include the following programs:
Ygrene Works for California PACE Program: the Ygrene PACE program is sponsored by
the California Home Finance Authority (CHFA in the process of formally changing its name to
Golden State Finance Authority), a Joint Powers Authority established in 1993. CHFA has
established two PACE financing programs for residential, commercial, industrial and
agricultural properties, under the legislative authority of two separate California PACE laws, to
address high up-front costs for property owners who wish to improve their properties through
installation of measures that will generate renewable energy or reduced energy and water
use.
SB 555 PACE Community Facilities District: SB 555 amended the Mello-Roos Community
Facilities Act to allow for the creation of Community Facilities Districts for the purpose of
financing or refinancing the acquisition, installation, and improvement of energy efficiency,
water conservation, renewable energy and electric vehicle charging infrastructure
improvements permanently affixed to private or publicly-owned real property.
AB 811 PACE Contractual Assessment Program: Similar to most other PACE programs, the
passage of AB 811 authorized cities and counties to establish voluntary contractual
assessment programs for the purpose of financing private property improvements that promote
renewable energy generation, energy and water efficiency and electric vehicle charging
infrastructure.
The two resolutions before the Council authorize the Ygrene PACE program to operate in the
City of Bakersfield under each form discussed above. In addition, each resolution approves
the City's associate membership in the CHFA Joint Powers Authority. The City's associate
membership in CHFA does not subject the City to any potential liability or responsibility related
to CHFA. In addition, the third item included for action by Council is an Indemnification and
Insurance Agreement with Ygrene designed to provide further protection for the City. These
protections are consistent with the provisions of approval for the City's existing PACE
programs.
Energy Efficient Equity (E3) and PACE Funding Program: the E3 PACE program is
sponsored by the California Municipal Finance Authority (CMFA), a Joint Powers Authority
formed in 2004. The City of Bakersfield is a current member of CMFA so the resolution
approving the CMFA PACE program in the City of Bakersfield does not require joining CMFA
as an associate member. Instead, all that is necessary is approval of a resolution allowing the
E3 PACE program to be offered in the City. Staff is also bringing forward an Indemnification
Agreement consistent with the City's approval process for other PACE programs. The CMFA
PACE program operates under the authority provided in AB 811, therefore, only one resolution
is necessary.
Conclusion: the approval of the resolutions and agreements included in this item will expand
the current number of authorized PACE programs in the City of Bakersfield from three (3) to a
total of five (5). While these programs are structured in very similar ways, each has some
unique aspects which they promote to differentiate themselves, such as differing interest rates
and/or terms. Staff views the addition of these PACE programs as providing additional
consumer choice for residents of Bakersfield who may choose to utilize PACE financing
opportunities.

WARD:
SUBJECT: Revised and New Job Specifications - Change to Salary Schedule and
Reclassification:
Amendment No. 4 to Resolution No. 079-13 approving
Memorandum of Understanding for employees of the Blue and
White Collar Units and adopting salary schedule and related
benefits for Police Computer Forensic Examiner.

New Job Specification: Police Computer Forensic Examiner
(#21400)
3.
Reclassification: Police Service Technician to Police Computer
Forensic Examiner
4.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends adoption of the resolution, approval of the revised and new job
specifications and reclassification.
BACKGROUND:
Revised Job Specification: Traffic Signal Technician (#15310)
As part of the recruitment process, the job specification for Traffic Signal Technician was
reviewed and updated. Language was changed and/or added to reflect the actual job duties
and current industry terminology in the class summary, essential job duties, minimum
qualifications, licenses, certificates and special requirements, knowledge and abilities and
physical or special working conditions. Human Resources staff worked closely with the
General Services Superintendent to update the job specification. The job specification has not
been updated since 2008.
SEIU has reviewed and approved the revisions. There is no budgetary impact as the salary
will remain the same. The revised job specification was presented and approved by the
Miscellaneous Civil Service Board at their August 18, 2015 meeting.
New Job Specification: Police Computer Forensic Examiner #21400
The Computer Forensics Unit (CFU) in the Police Department is primarily responsible for the
analysis of digital evidence seized from crime scenes or suspect(s) ; as it relates to computers,
cell phones, tablets, video surveillance and any other devices capable of holding electronic
data. The CFU is required to respond to crime scenes to secure and seize evidence and
testify in court as subject matter experts. In addition, they are responsible for understanding
criminal offenses as it relates to computer crimes, as this Unit is responsible for identifying
suspect(s), digitally tracking the use of electronic devices, determining locations and
uncovering criminal activity. The CFU also receives service requests from every division within
the Department, including confidential requests from the Administration Division.
Currently, the Unit is comprised of one (1) detective and one (1) Police Service Technician. In
2014, the CFU received over 300 forensic requests; however they were only able to conduct
152 forensic analyses. This undesirable backlog of computers and devices waiting for
examination often results in the failed arrest and conviction of suspect(s). In almost every
arrest a suspect(s) is found to be in possession of a cellular phone or electronic device that
could possibly provide information as it relates to the crime. Failure to seize and forensically
analyze this type of evidence in a timely manner could potentially lead to the failure of securing
evidence and negatively affect the identification, arrest, and/or conviction of suspect(s). The
forensic analysis of this type of evidence is extensive and time consuming requiring
specialized training in criminal forensics, as the examiner is required to translate evidentiary
information to investigators, supervisors, attorneys and jury's. With the evolution and reliance
on electronic devices and the growth of criminal activity in this area, there is a critical need for
this position, as the case load is expected to grow substantially. The addition of a Police
Computer Forensic Examiner will assist significantly in achieving the goal of reducing crimes in
our community.
The new job specification was presented and approved by the Police Civil Service Board at
their August 5, 2015 meeting. Attached is the new job specification.
Reclassification: Police Service Technician to Police Computer Forensic Examiner
The Police Department has submitted a request to the Human Resources Division to reclassify
one (1) Police Service Technician position to a newly created classification of Police Computer
Forensic Examiner. The Police Service Technician position under general supervision is an
unarmed, non-sworn employee who assists sworn personnel in follow-up investigations;
enforces parking laws, ordinances, and regulations and issues citations; directs traffic at
accidents, crime, and fire scenes and special events; and conducts certain types of criminal
and traffic investigations. Upon research and review of an incumbent in the position of Police
Service Technician, it has been determined that the employee has been performing the
following duties:
“Under general supervision, processes, examines and analyzes computer hardware, software,
cellular phones, digital media, electronically stored data and other computer-related evidentiary
materials pertaining to law enforcement investigations. Prepares and presents reports of
findings, provides expert testimony, and performs other work as required.”
These duties and assignments fall outside of the scope of the representative duties of the
Police Service Technician classification. Therefore, based on the above, we recommend this
employee be reclassified from Police Service Technician to Police Computer Forensic
Examiner because of the complex assignments that are being performed on a regular basis
which require extensive knowledge, training, ability and judgment which are the primary
functions of the position.

The owners of the above-mentioned properties failed to commence the required work as
ordered by the Building Director to abate a public nuisance. As permitted under Chapter 8.80
of the Bakersfield Municipal Code, the public nuisances listed above were abated under the
direction of the Chief Code Enforcement Officer. The costs incurred by the City can be
assessed against the property as provided for in Chapter 8.80 of the Bakersfield Municipal
Code. Property owners had been given notice of their right to appear at the hearing on this
matter before the City Manager designee and to object to the correctness of the costs incurred
by the City to remove the public nuisance. The City Manager designee has approved the
assessments associated with the above-mentioned properties.
The Council will need to confirm the approval of the City Manager designee of the costs
incurred by the City for work performed to remove the public nuisance and order that such
costs be made a lien against the property. This will be done by adoption of the attached
resolution.

MEETING DATE: 9/2/2015 CONSENT - Resolutions g.
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council
FROM: Nelson K. Smith, Finance Director
DATE: 8/13/2015
WARD:
SUBJECT: Resolution Adopting Sewer Connection Fees Pursuant to Section
14.12.380 of the Municipal Code.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends adoption of the Resolution.
BACKGROUND:
The Bakersfield Municipal Code (BMC) authorizes sewer service and connection fees to be
established each year by resolution. The Council established the annual user fees and
charges for the 2015-16 fiscal year on June 3, 2015 by way of Resolution No. 70-15.
The current Sewer Connection fee of $4,000 per single family dwelling unit has been in effect
since July 1, 2010 and was established at this level by Council Resolution No. 159-06
(June 2006). The connection fees have remained at the current level for several years, most
recently confirmed by Council Resolution 081-14 (June 2014). The Sewer Connection
fees are a one-time fee collected at the same time building permit fees are paid.
Sewer connection fees are an integral part of the Wastewater Revenue flow of funds and a
major component of enterprise revenues pledged for debt service payments. Given the recent
refinancing of the 2007 Wastewater Revenue Bonds staff is requesting to confirm the existing
connection fee structure as a necessary component of the Wastewater Revenue program.
Staff is recommending the sewer connection fees remain at its current levels; thus no
increases are being proposed at this time. The sewer connection fees collected each year are
used to help pay the annual debt service of the wastewater enterprise. The 2015-2016
proposed budget estimates $5 million of connection fees will be collected and applied toward
the estimated $15 million of wastewater enterprise debt service. The balance of the debt
service will be paid with other revenues of the wastewater enterprise, including residential and
commercial user fees.

WARD:
SUBJECT: Resolution vacating Resolution No. 108-12, which certified the Final
Environmental Impact Report (SCH#2011021042) for the Kern River
Flow and Municipal Water Program.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends adoption of the resolution.
BACKGROUND:
The Kern River Flow and Municipal Water Program (“Program”) is a multi-objective flow
management and water supply program. The primary objective is to allow substantial
quantities of water to flow in the Kern River channel to protect, increase, and enhance the
City’s water supply. The source of the water for the Program would be water accruing to the
City’s pre-1914 appropriative Kern River water rights, and additional unappropriated surplus
Kern River water. Water flowing the in the Kern River would provide multiple benefits to the
City and its residents, before the water is ultimately used to satisfy the City’s municipal water
demand within its boundaries.
On September 26, 2012, the City Council of the City of Bakersfield adopted Resolution 108-12,
which certified the Final Environmental Impact Report SCH # 2011021042 (“Final EIR”),
adopted a Statement of Facts and Findings, and adopted a Statement of Overriding
Considerations for the Program.
The adequacy of the Final EIR was challenged in a lawsuit entitled North Kern Water Storage,
et al v. City of Bakersfield, Tulare County Superior Court Case No. VCU251748 [consolidated
with Case Nos. VCU251598 and VCU251535]. On July 6, 2015, the Tulare County Superior
Court issued a Judgment Granting Peremptory Writ of Mandate requiring the City to set aside
its certification of the Final EIR (“Writ of Mandate”).
In compliance with the Writ of Mandate, the City wishes to vacate Resolution No. 108-12.

TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council

DATE: 8/20/2015
WARD:
SUBJECT: Resolution vacating Resolution No. 029-14, which certified Final
Environmental Impact Report (SCH#2008041070) and approved the
24th Street Improvement Project.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends adoption of the resolution.
BACKGROUND:
On February 12, 2014, the City Council approved the 24th Street Widening Project, selecting
the widen-to-the-north alternative, and certified the Final Environmental Impact Report (“Final
EIR”) for the project (Resolution No. 029-14). A community group, Citizens Against the 24th
Street Widening Project, legally challenged the adequacy of the Final EIR and the validity of
the project’s approval in Kern County Superior Court (Citizens Against the 24th Street
Widening Project v. City of Bakersfield, et al, Case No. S-1500-CV-281556, KCT).
After evaluating the parties’ briefs and legal argument, the court decided that the Final EIR
failed to (1) adequately explain why eight alternatives initially considered for the project (i.e.
depressed roadway, frontage road, widening both sides of 24th Street, etc.) were eliminated
from further evaluation as project alternatives, and (2) include the cul-de-sacs that were added
on the south side of 24th Street, after the Draft EIR was circulated, in the EIR’s project
description. The court ordered that the City provide additional information and analysis in the
EIR to cure the deficiencies identified and set aside and void its certification of the Final EIR
and the Project Approval.
The attached resolution vacates Resolution No. 029-14 as required by the court. Staff, with
the assistance of the City’s retained consultant, will be working aggressively to cure the
deficiencies outlined by the court and will bring the project back before the Council once the
additional disclosure and analysis, in compliance with CEQA, is complete.

analyzes and discusses whether or not each of the potentially-feasible
alternatives satisfies at least one of the four threshold criteria under CEQA
Guidelines Section 15126.6, and analyzes the additional cul-de-sacs requested
by the public as a part of the project, including a description of any new
impacts on visual and historic resources ; and
WHEREAS, in compliance with the Writ of Mandate, City wishes to vacate

MEETING DATE: 9/2/2015 Consent - Resolutions j.
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council
FROM: Nick Fidler, Public Works Director
DATE: 7/28/2015
WARD:
SUBJECT: Resolution determining that Autoscope Rack Vision Terra Video
Detection Systems cannot be obtained through the usual bidding
procedures because of the need to integrate said systems into existing
traffic signal infrastructure and authorizing the Finance Director to
dispense with bidding therefore, not to exceed $90,000 for FY 2015/16.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends adoption of Resolution.
BACKGROUND:
Econolite Autoscope Model 2020 Video Detection Systems are installed at 32 signal-controlled
intersections within the City of Bakersfield. Each of these video detection systems are
comprised of a processing unit, two to four vehicle detection cameras, power and video
cabling. These video detection systems have been in use since 2002.
Econolite Control Products, Inc. discontinued production of the Autoscope Model 2020 and no
longer provides service or support for the 2020 unit.
Econolite has replaced the Autoscope Model 2020 with the Autoscope Rack Vision Terra
Video Detection System. It is more cost effective to upgrade the existing system than to
replace the entire infrastructure for these 32 signal-controlled intersections. Staff proposes to
replace the Autoscope 2020 processing systems over a multi-year period with the new
Terra System. The Terra System is a Windows-based system and has four processing units
which will allow faster response to traffic and a better fog recognition algorithm, thus facilitating
better traffic flow through the City's traffic grid. The City currently has 42 signalized
intersections with Terra Video Detection Systems. This purchase will enable the replacement
of 6 video detection systems at various intersections within the City. Each of the systems that
are being replaced consists of 4 color video detection cameras and 4 video detection
modules. The existing power and video cabling as well as the camera mounts, and video
isolation protection systems can all be reutilized with the new systems.
This Resolution authorizes the Finance Director to dispense with bidding because of the need
to integrate the purchase of six Autoscope Rack Vision Terra Video Detection Systems into the
existing Autoscope system. Econolite Control Products, Inc is the sole distributor of
the Autoscope Rack Vision Terra Video Detection Systems.
The FY 2015/16 Adopted CIP budget includes funds to replace six of the units. Capital Outlay
funds provide the funding source for this purchase.

DATE: 8/13/2015
WARD: Ward(s) 1, 7
SUBJECT: Resolutions to add the following territories to the Consolidated
Maintenance District and approving, confirming, and adopting the
Public Works Director’s Report for each:
Area 4-138 (900 Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Boulevard)1.
Area 5-79 (2200 Wible Road)2.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends adoption of the Resolutions.
BACKGROUND:
On August 12, 2015 the Council adopted Resolutions of Intention No. 1851 and 1852
respectively, to add the above territories to the Consolidated Maintenance District as required
by Section 13.04.021 of the Municipal Code. Inclusion in the Consolidated Maintenance
District will provide for the maintenance of parks and/or street landscaping. The areas will be
under park and/or streetscape zones of benefit and will be assigned the appropriate tier levels
when parks and/or street landscaping have been installed.
The addition of these territories to the Consolidated Maintenance District is not prohibited by
Proposition 218.
The City of Bakersfield has received a letter from the owner(s) of the properties described
above which waives the public hearing concerning inclusion in the Consolidated Maintenance
District. This allows the City to expedite the maintenance district process to satisfy the
subdivision requirement. The owner(s) also have submitted a Proposition 218 ballot indicating
their consent to the assessments.
In order to provide future property owners with disclosure regarding the inclusion of land in the
Consolidated Maintenance District and the estimated maximum annual cost per equivalent
dwelling unit, a covenant has been drafted and will be recorded with the Kern County Assessor
-Recorder’s Office upon approval of this Resolution.

1), the property within this new area reflects that portion of the cost of maintenance of
public street landscaping and/or a public park, based on the location of said
improvements in or near said area, above and beyond the general benefit of parcels
within the City that are not part of the CMD. Each parcel within this area will be assessed
its proportionate share of special benefit based on its zoning and size.
WHEREAS, it is the intention of the City Council of the City of Bakersfield to
add Area 4-138, generally described in Exhibit "A" attached hereto, to the CMD, in order
to maintain local improvements including street landscaping and/or a public park; and

PUBLIC WORKS DIRECTOR'S REPORT
ADDITION OF TERRITORY, AREA 4-138
Fiscal Year 2015-2016
Addition of territory to the Consolidated Maintenance District, as shown in Exhibit "A" is
generally described as the NWC of E. 9th Street and Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard and
as specifically shown on Map and Assessment Diagram marked Exhibit "B," attached hereto
and incorporated herein by reference as though fully set forth, as an area within the City of
Bakersfield.
Pursuant to the provisions of Chapter 13.04 of Title 13 of the Municipal Code of the City of
Bakersfield, referred to as the Maintenance District Procedure, the Public Works Director
makes and files this report and proposed assessment of and upon all parcels of property
within the area for the cost of maintaining a public park and public street medians and other
public street landscaping. The improvements generally include, but are not limited to,
recreation and sports equipment including swings, slides, play structures and storage
buildings; picnic facilities including tables, benches, barbecues, trash cans, drinking fountains
and restrooms; irrigation system including water mains, sprinklers, fountains, and electrical
wires, conduits and timers; plant forms including trees, shrubs, ground cover and turf; and
sidewalks and walkways now existing or hereafter to be constructed or planted in and for
said area and are of a public nature. The assessment includes the cost of necessary repairs,
replacement, water, electricity, care, supervision and any and all other items necessary for
the proper maintenance and operation thereof, and all additions and improvements
thereto which may hereafter be made.
For many years, public parks, public streets median and other public street landscaping
improvements in the City were maintained through traditional tax revenues. After Proposition
13, in 1978, funds available for maintenance and operation of parks, street median and
other street landscaping improvements were substantially reduced. At present, the City's
budget does not allow for maintenance and operation of park and street landscaping
improvements of the type described above. Thus, without funds for maintenance and
operating costs from a source other than general tax revenues, the City does not permit new
public parks, street median and other street landscaping improvements to be constructed
within the City.
Additional territory, as shown in Exhibit "E" is being added to the Consolidated Maintenance
District for the maintenance of a park and public street median and other street
landscaping. The area will be assigned appropriate park and street tiers in the Consolidated
Maintenance District so that each parcel will be assessed the same amount as other parcels
receiving a similar benefit.
All parcels within this area shall be assessed an amount not to exceed that established in
Resolution No. 019-05 per equivalent dwelling unit (as that term is defined in Exhibit “C”) per
parcel. In each subsequent year, annual assessments may increase by the cost of living

reflected in the Los Angeles-Riverside-Orange County/All Urban Consumers Consumer Price
Index. However, parcels will not be assessed until park and/or street landscaping have been
installed. When park and/or street landscape improvements have been completed, the
appropriate park and street tier levels will be assigned, but in no case shall the assessments
exceed the amount established in Resolution No. 019-05 as escalated per the above
described Consumer Price Index.
All parcels as described in the Benefit Formula on file with the City Clerk within the area will
be affected. Sensory benefits from installing street landscaping are aesthetic enhancement
and open space enjoyment.
A public park will benefit all the residential lots and public median and street landscaping
will benefit all the lots or parcels and will be assessed on an Equivalent Dwelling Unit basis
throughout the area. The Benefit Formula is set forth herein as Exhibit "C" and attached
hereto and incorporated in this resolution as though fully set forth herein.
NOW THEREFORE, I, NICK FIDLER, Director of Public Works of the City of Bakersfield,
by virtue of the power vested in me and the order of the Council of said City, hereby submit
the Fiscal Year 2015-2016 Budget and Assessment Roll as set forth in Exhibit "D" and Exhibit "E,"

parcels of property within additional territory subject to be assessed to pay the cost of

WARD: Ward 5
SUBJECT: Resolution of Intention No. 1853 to add Area 3-97 (northwest corner of
Panama Lane and Old River Road) to the Consolidated Maintenance
District and preliminarily approving, confirming, and adopting the Public
Works Director’s Report.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends adopting the Resolution of Intention.
BACKGROUND:
A written request has been received by the City Engineer from the owner(s) of the parcel to be
included into the Consolidated Maintenance District as required by section 13.04.021 of the
Municipal Code. Inclusion in the Consolidated Maintenance District will provide for the
maintenance of a public park and street landscaping. This area will be under the park and
streetscape zones of benefit and will be assigned appropriate tier levels when a park has been
constructed and street landscaping has been installed.
Staff is recommending the new territory be added to the Consolidated Maintenance District at
the next City Council meeting.
The City of Bakersfield has received a letter from the owner(s) of the properties described
above which waives the public hearing concerning inclusion in the Consolidated Maintenance
District. This allows the City to expedite the maintenance district process to satisfy the
subdivision requirement. The owner(s) also have submitted a Proposition 218 ballot indicating
their consent to the assessments.
In order to provide future property owners with disclosure regarding the inclusion of land in the
Consolidated Maintenance District and the estimated maximum annual cost per equivalent
dwelling unit, a covenant has been drafted and will be recorded with the Kern County Assessor
-Recorder’s Office upon approval of this Resolution.

PUBLIC WORKS DIRECTOR'S REPORT
ADDITION OF TERRITORY, AREA 3-97
Fiscal Year 2015-2016
Addition of territory to the Consolidated Maintenance District, as shown in Exhibit "A" is
generally described as the NWC of Panama Lane and Old River Road and as specifically
shown on Map and Assessment Diagram marked Exhibit "B," attached hereto and
incorporated herein by reference as though fully set forth, as an area within the City of
Bakersfield.
Pursuant to the provisions of Chapter 13.04 of Title 13 of the Municipal Code of the City of
Bakersfield, referred to as the Maintenance District Procedure, the Public Works Director
makes and files this report and proposed assessment of and upon all parcels of property
within the area for the cost of maintaining a public park and public street medians and other
public street landscaping. The improvements generally include, but are not limited to,
recreation and sports equipment including swings, slides, play structures and storage
buildings; picnic facilities including tables, benches, barbecues, trash cans, drinking fountains
and restrooms; irrigation system including water mains, sprinklers, fountains, and electrical
wires, conduits and timers; plant forms including trees, shrubs, ground cover and turf; and
sidewalks and walkways now existing or hereafter to be constructed or planted in and for
said area and are of a public nature. The assessment includes the cost of necessary repairs,
replacement, water, electricity, care, supervision and any and all other items necessary for
the proper maintenance and operation thereof, and all additions and improvements
thereto which may hereafter be made.
For many years, public parks, public streets median and other public street landscaping
improvements in the City were maintained through traditional tax revenues. After Proposition
13, in 1978, funds available for maintenance and operation of parks, street median and
other street landscaping improvements were substantially reduced. At present, the City's
budget does not allow for maintenance and operation of park and street landscaping
improvements of the type described above. Thus, without funds for maintenance and
operating costs from a source other than general tax revenues, the City does not permit new
public parks, street median and other street landscaping improvements to be constructed
within the City.
Additional territory, as shown in Exhibit "E" is being added to the Consolidated Maintenance
District for the maintenance of a park and public street median and other street
landscaping. The area will be assigned appropriate park and street tiers in the Consolidated
Maintenance District so that each parcel will be assessed the same amount as other parcels
receiving a similar benefit.
All parcels within this area shall be assessed an amount not to exceed that established in
Resolution No. 019-05 per equivalent dwelling unit (as that term is defined in Exhibit “C”) per
parcel. In each subsequent year, annual assessments may increase by the cost of living
S:PROJECTSMAINDISTFormation DocumentsMD 3-97PW DIRECTOR'S REPORT.docx EXHIBIT 1
reflected in the Los Angeles-Riverside-Orange County/All Urban Consumers Consumer Price
Index. However, parcels will not be assessed until park and/or street landscaping have been
installed. When park and/or street landscape improvements have been completed, the
appropriate park and street tier levels will be assigned, but in no case shall the assessments
exceed the amount established in Resolution No. 019-05 as escalated per the above
described Consumer Price Index.
All parcels as described in the Benefit Formula on file with the City Clerk within the area will
be affected. Sensory benefits from installing street landscaping are aesthetic enhancement
and open space enjoyment.
A public park will benefit all the residential lots and public median and street landscaping
will benefit all the lots or parcels and will be assessed on an Equivalent Dwelling Unit basis
throughout the area. The Benefit Formula is set forth herein as Exhibit "C" and attached
hereto and incorporated in this resolution as though fully set forth herein.
NOW THEREFORE, I, NICK FIDLER, Director of Public Works for the City of Bakersfield,
by virtue of the power vested in me and the order of the Council of said City, hereby submit
the Fiscal Year 2015-2016 Budget and Assessment Roll as set forth in Exhibit "D" and Exhibit "E,"
respectively, attached hereto and incorporated herein as though fully set forth, upon all
parcels of property within additional territory subject to be assessed to pay the cost of
maintenance and operation in said area.

BENEFIT FORMULA
Each parcel joining the Consolidated Maintenance District shall be assessed the amount as defined below:
Rate:
Shall equal the dollar amount shown per the tier level of your zone of the Consolidated Maintenance District on Attachment A
“Consolidated Maintenance District Cost per Tier” as approved by City Council Resolution 019-15. As per the Resolution, “Said amounts
shall be increased annually by the cost of living increase reflected in the Los Angeles–Riverside–Orange County / All Urban Consumers
Consumer Price Index.” Tier levels for both Parks and Street Landscaping in the 5 zones of the Consolidated Maintenance District are
established by the Recreation and Parks Department through separate policy.

Total Assessment $= ((Park Rate x Park Tier) x EDU)) + ((Street Rate x Street Tier) x EDU) + (County Fee)
Note: Since Proposition 218 was passed in November 1996, assessment rates for areas formed prior to Proposition 218 have been frozen at
their current rate.
Areas formed between November 1996 and January 12, 2005 shall be assessed by the terms stated on their Proposition 218 ballot.
On January 12, 2005 the city passed Resolution 19-05 which allowed for an escalator on the maximum assessment. Any areas formed after
Proposition 218 and which have ballots which include this escalator may be increased according to their ballot terms.
A parcel may be added to the City of Bakersfield Consolidated Maintenance District if any of the below conditions occurs:
1. Bakersfield Municipal code 13.04.021:
“It is the policy of the city to include within a maintenance district all new developments that are subject to the Subdivision Map

requesting formation of a maintenance district, or joining a maintenance district, as a condition of a zone change, or general
plan amendment, or conditional use permit, or during site plan review where deemed necessary by the city.”
2. Bakersfield Municipal Code 13.04.022 (A):
“No final map or certificate of compliance for a parcel map waiver may be recorded absent establishment of a maintenance
district to provide for all future maintenance of any landscaping in the public right-of-way and of any public park required as a
condition of approval of the development project for the area covered by the final map or parcel map waiver.”
3. City staff determines this is necessary as part of: Site Plan Review Conditions, Zone Change, a General Plan Amendment, or a
Conditional Use Permit.
Equivalent Dwelling Units (EDU) shall be assigned using the following policy. EDU’s may also be adjusted given special conditions or
agreements as necessary to adequately reflect the conditions of the site at the time of formation. Developed Parcels will be assessed by
their actual units on their site as per their plans, map, or current use.
Single Family Residential Parcels: 1 EDU per Parcel

WARD: Ward 2
SUBJECT: Resolution of Intention No. 1846 to order the vacation of the alley east
of V Street between 20th Street and 21st Street within Block 218 and
219 of Godey Tract.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends adoption of Resolution of Intention.
BACKGROUND:
Rick C. and Nicole L. Douglass are the owners of Douglass Truck Bodies and own the majority
of the properties adjacent to the alley east of V Street to Union Avenue between 20th
Street
and 21st
Street. The company parks vehicles and equipment and moves equipment across the
alley on a daily basis. For the safety of employees, pedestrians, and equipment, the
applicants are requesting the alley be vacated.
The City Fire, Police, Public Works, and Community Development Departments have been
notified of the request and no objections have been received as of the date of this report.
Public Works notes that there are City sewer facilities in the vacating area; therefore, a Public
Utility Easement will be reserved over the vacated area.
The utility companies serving the area have been notified by mail. Utilities are located in the
alley to be vacated; therefore, a Public Utility Easement will be reserved over the vacated area.
Preliminary notices were also mailed to all adjacent property owners within a 300-foot radius of
the proposed vacating area. Public Works has received no objections from these owners as of
the date of this report.
The proposed vacation was approved by the Planning Department on June 17, 2015, per local
ordinance and was found to be consistent with the Metropolitan Bakersfield 2010 General Plan
pursuant to Government Code 65402.
It was determined that this action is exempt from the requirements of the California
Environmental Quality Act pursuant to Section 15061 (b) (3) of CEQA guidelines (general rule),
because there is no possibility that the action may have a significant effect on the
environment.
This Resolution of Intention sets the Public Hearing date for the regular Council meeting of
September 16, 2015.

STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends approval of map and agreement.
BACKGROUND:
Per Bakersfield Municipal Code Chapter 16, “Subdivisions”, Tentative Tract Map 6364 Phase
6 was conditioned by the Planning Commission to require the construction of certain
improvements within and adjacent to the tentative tract map. These improvements are
necessary for the general use of the owners of those lots created by the final maps. This
Agreement is entered into to secure these improvements, which include but are not limited to,
streets, sewer, walls, and storm drain on or adjacent to the property being subdivided. The
term of this Agreement is one year from the date of the Agreement. Certificates of Occupancy
or final inspections will not be allowed for any building within the bounds of this final map until

Notice of Completion of the improvements is recorded.
The Public Works Department has completed the review of the final map submitted by the
Developer and is recommending that the Council approve the map. In addition, the
Improvement Agreement outlining the Developer’s responsibilities for onsite infrastructure
improvements, which typically accompanies approval of the final map, is also included and

SUBJECT: Agreement with ABS Surplus-O LLC, and indemnification of
Albertsons, to allow the City to utilize a vacant lot at the southwest
corner of Stockdale Highway and Buena Vista Road on October 1 and
4, 2015, to accommodate additional parking for two different special
events at the Bright House Networks Amphitheatre.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends approval of the agreement.
BACKGROUND:
During the month of October, two events will take place at the Bright House Networks
Amphitheatre which are anticipated to create a demand for parking that the exceeds the on
site parking capacity at the Park at River Walk. The two events are Gary Allen on October 1st
and Gospel Fest on October 4th.
As done previously for large events held at the venue, the City is proposing to enter into an
agreement with Albertsons to utilize the company's vacant property located at the southwest corner
of Stockdale Highway and Buena Vista Road, which is within close proximity of the venue. The
utilization of the property allows AEG to facilitate the parking needs of attendees for each of these
events and there is no direct cost to the City for the use of the lot.
In exchange for the use of the lot, the City has agreed to provide weed control and litter removal from
September 3rd through November 20, 2015. Albertsons has requested an indemnity clause be included
as a term of the agreement which requires the City to defend and hold harmless Albertsons from and
against any and all loss, damage, liability or claims (including, without limitation, costs and expenses of
litigation and reasonable attorney' fees) arising from, or connected with the City's use of the lot on
October 1st and 4th, 2015 and the City's maintenance of weed control and litter removal.
Staff is recommending approval of the agreement.

SUBJECT: Median Landscaping on Buena Vista Road between White Lane and
Campus Park Drive:
Median Fee Reimbursement Agreement with Sierra Oaks
Partners, LLC (“Developer”), (not to exceed $80,856) for median
construction and median landscaping on Buena Vista Road
between White Lane and Campus Park Drive.
1.
Appropriate $80,856 developer share project cost to the Public
Works Department's Capital Improvement budget within the
Capital Outlay Fund to fund reimbursement to Developer.
2.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends approval of agreement and appropriation.
BACKGROUND:
Landscaped medians are required on arterial streets. Developers are responsible for the
construction of the median along the frontage of their development. The first developer on one
side of an arterial street has the option to a) construct the full-width median for the frontage of
their development or b) pay the proportionate share of the cost to construct the median for the
frontage of their development. The determination of the proportionate share cost shall be
based upon an Engineer’s Estimate, to be reviewed and approved by the City Engineer.
The second developer on the opposite side of the arterial street must construct the landscaped
median and may be reimbursed from the median fees previously paid for that section, if any.
The reimbursement to the developer is limited to the lower of:
· Actual construction costs; or
· Proportionate share of the median fees previously collected for that particular section of
median.
As a condition of Parcel Map 12100, the Developer was required to construct portions of a new
median and to landscape existing medians along the frontage of said parcel on Buena Vista
Road between White Lane and Campus Park Drive. The Developer has expended
$189,579.54 to construct the new medians and landscape existing medians. The Developer is
entitled to receive partial reimbursement for a portion of this construction cost. Median fees
paid by previous developers for this area is $80,856. Therefore, the Developer's
reimbursement is limited to this amount.
Staff recommends approval of the agreement and appropriation of the median fees collected.

MEETING DATE: 9/2/2015 Consent - Agreements q.
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council
FROM: Nelson K. Smith, Finance Director
DATE: 8/18/2015
WARD:
SUBJECT: Amendment No. 1 to Agreement No. 14-318 with General Tree Service
Incorporated ($325,000; not to exceed $650,000 and extend the term
to June 30, 2016) to continue the tree trimming service.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends approval of amendment.
BACKGROUND:
In November 2014, bids were solicited for the annual contract for tree trimming services
resulting in three bids submitted. On December 10, 2014, Council approved the annual
contract for tree trimming service to the low bidder, General Tree Service, Inc., in the amount
of $325,000; with the option to renew annually thereafter for four consecutive one-year periods
per the terms of the agreement.
Currently there is $19,000 available on this agreement. Extending the term and adding
$325,000 will allow the Parks Department to continue with the scheduled maintenance and
removal of dead trees. Contract activity has increased with the need to remove dead trees
due to the drought conditions. The contractor has performed all services on a satisfactory
level. There is no increase in the unit price to extend this agreement. This amendment aligns
the expiration date with the fiscal year end; changing the term date to June 30, 2016, will assist
with managing the department budget for this service. However, due to extraordinary
circumstances brought on by extended drought conditions, even with closely monitoring this
contract, an additional financial adjustment may need to be made prior to June 30, 2016.
If approved, Amendment No. 1 will add $325,000 for a revised not to exceed amount to
$650,000 and extend the term to June 30, 2016. Funds are budgeted in the Parks Department
FY 2015-16 operating budget within the General Fund for this contract. Approval of the
amendment will allow the City to continue to meet the demand for tree trimming services.

FROM: Nick Fidler, Public Works Director
DATE: 8/13/2015
WARD: Ward(s) 1, 2
SUBJECT: Contract Change Order No. 27 to Agreement No. 13-140 with Security
Paving Company, Inc. (decrease of $121,355.84; revised not to
exceed $14,228,302.03), for the SR-58 Gap Closure Project.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends approval of contract change order.
BACKGROUND:
This project consists of widening State Route 58 to three lanes in each direction from State
Route 99 to 0.5 miles east of Cottonwood Road.
Contract Change Order No. 27 provides for an adjustment of compensation to reflect the price
decrease of the asphalt binder used in the Hot Mix Asphalt (HMA) during the course of the
project. Using the formulas and tables outlined in the contract documents, this adjustment of
compensation will result in a net credit of ($121,355.84).
The sum of all change orders to date on this project reflects a total cost increase of $74,286.03
(which results in a 0.5% increase of the original contract amount) as illustrated below:
Original Contract Amount = $14,154,016.00
Amended Contract Agreement after Change Orders = $14,228,302.03
Net Increase to date = $ 74,286.03
Sufficient funds are budgeted to cover the cost of this change order.

WARD: Ward 2
SUBJECT: Agreement with Victor Cotera ($277,000) to purchase real property
located at 4409 Kensington Avenue for the Centennial Corridor
Project.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends approval of Agreement.
BACKGROUND:
As part of the Thomas Road Improvement Program (TRIP), the City of Bakersfield is acquiring
properties to construct the Centennial Corridor Project. The Centennial Corridor will connect
the existing State Route 58 at South Real Road and State Route 99 to the Westside Parkway
north of Truxtun Avenue. The property being purchased consists of a single family residence.
The purchase price of $277,000 is the property’s fair market value as established by an
appraisal prepared by Merriman Hurst and Associates, an independent appraisal company
In addition to the purchase price the City will be paying for relocation assistance in accordance
with the Uniform Relocation Assistance and Real Property Acquisition Policies Act of 1970
(Uniform Act). The Uniform Act provides important protections and assistance for people
affected by Federally funded projects. All parties displaced by the TRIP projects will be
provided all applicable relocation benefits pursuant to the requirements set forth in the Uniform
Act. These benefits may include a purchase price differential payment, a mortgage differential
payment, and the actual, reasonable and necessary costs to relocate their personal and/or
business property. Every property is unique and the benefits will reflect their individual
circumstances.
A Phase I Environmental Site Assessment report has been prepared encompassing all
properties required for the Centennial Corridor project during the State required Environmental
Document process. The Planning Division completed a General Plan Review (65402) and
found this acquisition consistent with the Metropolitan Bakersfield 2010 General Plan.
Funding for this purchase is budgeted in the Centennial Corridor Federal Transportation Fund
and is part of the $165 million authorized by CalTrans and appropriated by the City Council on
March 5, 2014 for right of way acquisitions. Purchases under the early acquisition program
were approved by CalTrans at 100% federal funding with no local match requirement for this
phase of the project. This concept is termed by CalTrans as “toll credits”. The term “toll credit”
is a little confusing, because it does not refer to a toll that might be paid for crossing a bridge. It
refers to an alternate definition of the word that means “to lead or attract to a desired point”.
Offering of toll credits allows the City to accelerate the spending of Federal dollars sooner and
gets the project further along with less need of local dollars. As a result, the future construction
phase of the Centennial project will carry a higher local match percentage than it would have
without the toll credits being approved. The end result is that we will still spend the same
amount of Federal and local dollars to project completion as we would have without toll credits,
but using toll credits allows us to spend the Federal money first and the local dollars later.
The Centennial Corridor Project has 199 single family residential properties. This is the 121st
of the 199 single family residential properties to be acquired.
Information on the progress of the right of way phase of each TRIP project and the costs
associated therewith will be contained in a periodic report.

In addition to the purchase price the City will be paying for each occupied apartment tenant’s
relocation assistance in accordance with the Uniform Relocation Assistance and Real Property

Resources, Recreation and Parks and Public Works. Staff anticipates utilizing this contract for
the following projects; repairs at bus stops to improve ADA requirements, curb, gutter and
sidewalk at Sports Village (Phase 3) and Mesa Marin parking lot. In addition, the contract will
provide for routine maintenance and repair of curb, gutter, and sidewalk and block wall
damage by vehicles.
Sufficient funds are available to cover the costs associated with this greement. Multiple
funding sources may be used for work under this contract including General Funds, Capital
Outlay Funds, Park Improvement Funds, Refuse Funds, Wastewater Funds and Agricultural
Water Funds. The contract award is for a one year period; renewable annually for four
consecutive one-year periods at the City’s option and upon mutually agreeable terms.
The three bids received are listed below.

SUBJECT: Accept bid and approve contract with Robertson Industries, Inc. ($136,466), for
replacement playground rubberized surfacing at various parks.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends acceptance of bid and approval of contract.
BACKGROUND:
As part of the Fiscal Year 2014-15 Capital Improvement Program, the City Council approved a project to
replace rubberized surfaces at various City parks. City parks have rubberized surfacing as a safety
requirement under playground structures. This surface deteriorates over time due to weather conditions
and general use. To maintain compliance with public playground safety requirements, several parks are
in need of partial or complete rubberized surfacing replacement.
Bids were solicited for replacement playground rubberized surfacing at various parks. Two bids were
received in response to the solicitation.
The bid specifications identified parks in immediate need of repair and grouped them as a base
bid. The base bid included The Park at River Walk, Pin Oak Park, Quailwood Park, Planz
Park, Dr. Martin Luther King Park and Jastro Park. The award is based on the base bid
amount.
An “additive alternate” option was included in the bid package for repairs at additional park
locations based on budgeted funding available for this work. Funds are available to include
additional repairs at the following “additive alternate” park sites; Windsor Park, Central Park,
Campus Park South, Granite Pointe Park, Centennial Park and Jefferson Park. Parks staff has
since determined that the Amtrak and Wayside Park sites are in need of full playground
replacement, thus it would be more cost effective to replace the rubberized surface at these
two locations when the playground replacement occurs in the future. A spreadsheet showing
complete analysis is attached.
Funds are budgeted in the Park Improvement Fund for this project. There is General Fund
impact associated with this contract.
The two bids received are as follows:

ADMINISTRATIVE REPORT
MEETING DATE: 9/2/2015 Consent - Miscellaneous ab.
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council
FROM: Greg Williamson, Police Chief
DATE: 8/13/2015
WARD:
SUBJECT: Appropriate $8,640 contributions from the Bakersfield Foundation to
the Police Department Operating Budget within the General Fund to
offset the costs of the purchase of a Police Canine.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends approval of the appropriation.
BACKGROUND:
The Bakersfield Police Department K-9 Unit was established in 1988. The Unit is an important
operational component of the Police Department. Over the past 27 years, the Unit has been
responsible for thousands of arrests and the confiscation of significant amounts of marijuana,
methamphetamine, cocaine, and heroin.
The police K-9, due to its strength, agility, courage, and keen sense of smell are utilized to
assist law enforcement in various tasks and situations. Because of these attributes, police
service dogs can be utilized to assist in searching for potentially violent criminals and aid in the
apprehension of fleeing criminals who may place innocent community members or other police
officers at risk of injury. In potentially dangerous situations, the police K-9 can often assume
the risk by preventing exposure of a police officer to a violent confrontation. The police K-9 are
highly trained to detect the presence of narcotics. The dogs also offer the department an
effective public relations tool to disseminate information about the police department's mission,
functions, and crime fighting efforts.
As police service dogs age, there comes a point in time when they are no longer able to
perform to the Department's standards. When this time comes, the dog is retired to its
handler’s home and the handler is allowed to purchase the animal. On August 1, 2015, BPD K
-9 Patrol service dog Carson was retired into his handler's care, creating the need to purchase
a replacement canine for the department. After completing a comprehensive evaluation
process and cost analysis, a new dog has been selected to replace Carson.
The purchase price of the new dog is $8,640. The canine will be funded through a generous
contribution to the Bakersfield Foundation from Jack and Carol Craig of Bakersfield. There is
no impact to the General Fund associated with this action.
The proposed action will appropriate the donated funds to the Police Department operating
budget for the purchase of the canine.

DATE: 8/11/2015
WARD:
SUBJECT: Appropriate $50,000 State Grant Revenue for the Waste Tire
Enforcement Grant Program to the Community Development
Department Operating Budget in the General Fund.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends approval of appropriation.
BACKGROUND:
The City has received a $50,000 grant from the California Department of Resources, Recycling
and Recovery for waste tire enforcement. The grant will offset funding for Code Enforcement
staff time directly related to the development, monitoring and implementation of a program to
educate tire dealers and auto dismantlers of their responsibilities as waste tire generators and
reduce the illegal disposal of waste tires.
The California Department of Resources, Recycling and Recovery, over the past grant cycles
have reimbursed the City over $242,000 through the Tire Enforcement Grant Program. In that
time, Code Enforcement staff has conducted 1,659 inspections of waste tire generators and
identified over 826 piles of illegally-dumped tires within the City’s jurisdiction. Over 10,000
illegally-dumped tires have been abated by private property owners, Code Enforcement or
through other CalRecycle Grant programs. Code Enforcement has referred five cases to the
District Attorney’s Office for prosecution of tire related-violations of State law. Code
Enforcement staff has spent 965 hours patrolling the City for tire-related activities, conducted
819 hours of surveillance and received over 262 hours in training from the California
Department of Resources, Recycling and Recovery.
Staff is recommending the appropriation.

MEETING DATE: 9/2/2015 Consent - Successor Agency Business ad.
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council
FROM: Virginia Gennaro, City Attorney
DATE: 8/20/2015
WARD:
SUBJECT: Settlement Agreement and Mutual Release between the Successor
Agency and the Kern Community College District regarding AB 1290
Pass-Through Underpayments of the former Bakersfield
Redevelopment Agency.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends approval of the Settlement Agreement and Mutual Release.
BACKGROUND:
Prior to the dissolution of the former Bakersfield Redevelopment Agency (BRDA) on February
1, 2012, AB 1290 pass-through payments were calculated and paid by the Kern County
Auditor-Controller-County Clerk (KCAC) on behalf of the BRDA to the various school districts
and taxing entities within the former Bakersfield Redevelopment Project Areas. The State
redevelopment dissolution law requires that the KCAC calculate and distribute future AB1290
pass-through payments to the school districts and taxing entities.
In 2013, the California Court of Appeals (Fourth Circuit) ruled in the Los Angeles Unified
School District v. County of Los Angeles et. al. case that the Los Angeles school districts were
entitled to AB-1290 pass-throughs based on a post-Education Revenue Augmentation Fund
(ERAF) basis. This meant that Los Angeles County and the other taxing entities within Los
Angeles County, including several of the dissolved redevelopment agencies, owed
underpayments of the AB-1290 pass through payments to the various Los Angeles County
school districts. The Los Angeles School District case was not appealed and so it remains the
current law in effect. Other counties started to follow the Los Angeles School District case in
terms of calculating their AB 1290 pass-through payments due to the school districts.
On April 15, 2015, the KCAC notified the Successor Agency to the dissolved BRDA
(“Successor Agency”) of the KCAC’s calculations of the AB 1290 pass through underpayments
based on the Los Angeles Court Decision by a letter, which is attached to this administrative
report. Subsequently, the KCCD agreed to adopt the KCAC’s figures for their claim and
demanded that the Successor Agency add underpayments of AB 1290 pass-through for the
KCCD as enforceable obligations to the next ROPS in the amount of Seventy-Four Thousand
Twenty Dollars and 66/100 ($74,020.66).
Approval of the Settlement Agreement and Mutual Release will not affect the City of
Bakersfield’s general fund. In addition, placing the AB 1290 underpayments on the next ROPS
will not jeopardize the existing Successor Agency’s enforceable obligations because those
obligations would still be able to be completely funded on future ROPS. Finally, existing
enforceable obligations also take priority over AB 1290 pass through obligations.
If the Successor Agency approves the Settlement Agreement and Mutual Release, staff will
forward the Settlement Agreement and Mutual Release to the Oversight Board to the
Successor Agency and the State Department of Finance for their approval and staff will also
add the AB 1290 underpayments on the next ROPS.

AGREEMENT NO. ________________
SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT AND MUTUAL RELEASE
THIS SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT AND MUTUAL RELEASE (“Settlement
Agreement”) is made and entered into as of September 2, 2015, (the “Effective
Date”), by and between the following parties:
1. Kern Community College District Superintendent of Schools, a
California public education entity (“KCCD”); and
2. City of Bakersfield, as Successor Agency (“Bakersfield SA”) to the
former Bakersfield Redevelopment Agency (“Bakersfield RDA”).
KCCD may be referred to herein as the Local Educational Agency (LEA”).
KCCD and Bakersfield SA may be referred to herein individually as a “Party” or
collectively as the “Parties.”
R E C I T A L S
WHEREAS, the LEA asserted that provisions of the Health and Safety Code
required the former Bakersfield RDA to make pass-through payments pursuant to
AB 1290 (“Pass-through Payments”) to the LEA as a local taxing entity within the
former Bakersfield RDA project areas; and
WHEREAS, pursuant to ABX 1-26, on February 1, 2012, the former Bakersfield
RDA was dissolved, and the Bakersfield SA was created by law to wind-down
the operations and business of the former Bakersfield RDA; and
WHEREAS, in August 2015, KCCD made a request to the Bakersfield SA for
unpaid Pass-through Payments for fiscal years 2008/2009 thru 2010/2011 (“Pre-
Dissolution Pass-through Payments”); and
WHEREAS, these Pre-Dissolution Pass-through Payments constitute
enforceable obligations of the Bakersfield SA per Health and Safety Code
Section 34171(d)(1)(C), since (i) they are “obligations imposed by State law” for
years prior to dissolution of the former Bakersfield RDA, and (ii) they are not
“pass-through payments that are made by the county auditor-controller
pursuant to [Health and Safety Code] Section 34182,” which payments are
exclusively for years after dissolution of the former Bakersfield RDA; and

WHEREAS, the Parties have been working cooperatively to identify and
reach an amicable, full and final settlement relating to the amount of these Pre-
Dissolution Pass-through Payments that have been alleged to remain due and
owing to the LEA; and

Agreement is intended to affect or waive the rights of any of the Parties in
relation to future Pass-through Payments.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the promises and covenants
contained herein, the Parties agree as follows:
1. GOVERNING BOARD APPROVAL. The Parties agree that this
Settlement Agreement is contingent upon approval by each Party’s governing

this Settlement Agreement shall be of no force and effect and none of the
Parties shall be deemed to have waived any rights with respect to the disputed
Pass-through Payments.
2. SETTLEMENT OF CLAIMS. The Parties hereby agree to resolve all
disputes related to the amount of Pre-Dissolution Pass-through Payments due to

2.1. KCCD Obligation. The Bakersfield SA shall pay from funds it
receives from the Real Property Tax Transfer Fund (“RPTTF”) a Pre-Dissolution Pass-
through Payment to KCCD in the total amount of Seventy-Four Thousand Twenty

2.2. RPTTF. The Bakersfield SA shall satisfy the KCCD Obligation
(the “LEA Obligation”) from monies it receives from its RPTTF. The Parties
acknowledge that any payments from the RPTTF to the Bakersfield SA must be
approved by the Oversight Board for the Bakersfield SA (the “OB”) and the State
Department of Finance (“DOF”). Subject to approval of the OB, the Bakersfield
SA shall schedule payment of the LEA Obligation as “recognized obligations” on
the Recognized Obligation Payment Schedules (“ROPS”) for the period of
January 1, 2016 to June 30, 2016 (2015/2016 ROPS B Period). Bakersfield SA’s

FROM: Douglas N. McIsaac, Community Development Director
DATE: 7/9/2015
WARD:
SUBJECT: U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) Action
Plan Amendments:
FY 2010-11 Amendment No. 12 - Create Neighborhood
Stabilization Program (NSP) Housing Acquisition and
Preservation Program with $141,352 Program Income, and
appropriate $141,352 to the NSP operating budget;

Jr. Park and Community Center Lighting Improvements Project
with $130,000 project savings;
4.
Appropriate $2,685 to the CDBG Operating Budget.5.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends approval of the amendments and appropriations.
BACKGROUND:
The City receives funding from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development
(HUD) annually through the submission of an Action Plan, which describes all HUD-funded
projects and activities for a particular fiscal year. HUD allows significant changes to the Action
Plan through a Substantial Amendment. City staff recommends Substantial Amendments
for the HUD-funded activities below.
Neighborhood Stabilization Program (NSP) Housing Acquisition and Preservation
In FY 2010-11, the City received federal stimulus funds to mitigate issues related to
abandoned, vacant, or foreclosed residential properties. The City has expended its original
allocation of NSP funds; however, over time the program has generated $141,352 in
NSP program income (loan proceeds) that must be used for future NSP-eligible activities. This
Substantial Amendment creates a NSP Downpayment Assistance Program funded
with $141,352 in program income for the purchase of vacant, abandoned, or foreclosed
properties in NSP-eligible areas by households earning 120 percent of the area median
income or less.
Fire Station 1 Improvements
In FY 2011-12, the City Council approved $120,000 in Community Development Block Grant
(CDBG) funds to paint the exterior and replace the windows at Fire Station 1. Although the City
completed the painting activities, the environmental review process determined the windows
were historic in nature; consequently, replacing the windows according to the historic
preservation guidelines was infeasible. At this moment, Fire Station 1 requires rehabilitation to
a sewer line in the vehicle bay area that has caused subsidence and cracking in the concrete
floor. In addition, the adjacent workstation has been deteriorating over time, including the
associated electrical and plumbing. This Substantial Amendment revises the program
description to include rehabilitating the damaged sewer line in the vehicle bay area; replacing a
portion of concrete in the vehicle bay area; and replacing the adjacent workstation, including
the plumbing and electrical. To ensure sufficient funds are available to complete the project,
City staff proposes allocating an additional $20,000 in project savings.
Housing Urban Bakersfield – Downpayment Assistance Program
In FY 2014-15, the City Council approved $250,000 in HOME Investment Partnerships
(HOME) funds for the Housing Urban Bakersfield – Downpayment Assistance Program. Due to
the success of the program, City staff has expended these funds on downpayment assistance
in the former redevelopment project areas, Creekview Villas, and Parkview Cottages. This
Substantial Amendment transfers $250,000 in HOME funds from the New Construction
Assistance Program to the Downpayment Assistance Program to cover the projected need for
downpayment assistance at Creekview Villas and Parkview Cottages. Please note that $1.7
million remains available for unobligated new affordable housing construction activities.
Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. (MLK) Park and Community Center Lighting Improvement
Project
In FY 2014-15, the highest rated CDBG application by City staff that did not receive funding
was the MLK Park and Community Center Lighting Improvement Project. This park is severely
under lit, which causes safety concerns for residents during the evenings. Also, the existing
lighting uses more electricity while producing inadequate illumination compared to newer
technologies. This Substantial Amendment reprograms $130,000 in project savings to the MLK
Park and Community Center Lighting Improvement Project. The project includes replacing
some of the existing exterior lighting with new LED fixtures and associated electrical
improvements. City staff anticipates the project will increase public safety at the park and
reduce energy costs and consumption.
CDBG Operating Budget Appropriation
Also, City staff recommends the appropriation of $2,685 to the CDBG Operating Budget. This
is to account for differences between projected and actual grant amounts.
Attached you will find a summary of the proposed Substantial Amendments. A 30-day public
hearing notice was published on July 31, 2015. No comments have been received to date.

MEETING DATE: 9/2/2015 New Business 13. a.
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council
FROM: Alan Tandy, City Manager
DATE: 7/10/2015
WARD:
SUBJECT: League of California Cities Annual Conference appointment of voting
delegate(s) and City Position on Conference Resolution(s).
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends Council appoint a voting delegate and alternate delegate(s) and adopt staff
recommended positions on the League proposed resolutions.
BACKGROUND:
The League of California Cities Annual Conference is scheduled for September 30th - October
2nd, 2015 in San Jose. The annual business meeting, during which proposed League
resolutions will be considered, is scheduled for 12:00 p.m. on Friday, October 2nd, at the San
Jose Convention Center.
Currently, there are four (4) Councilmembers scheduled to attend the League Annual
Conference, including Councilmembers Weir, Sullivan, Smith and Rivera. The League
requires the Council to appoint one (1) of its members as the City's voting delegate and up to
two (2) alternate voting delegates.
In addition, the League has provided information on four (4) proposed resolutions that will be
considered during the annual business meeting. A brief summary of the proposed resolutions
along with a staff recommended position for each is provided below. Additional information
regarding the designation of a voting delegate and the annual resolutions packet of information
is attached to this administrative report.
Resolution #1 - Resolution relating to League bylaws amendments regarding succession of
League offices to fill vacancies.
Summary: This resolution seeks to streamline the process when filling a vacancy for the office
of President of the Board of Directors. It would allow for the League bylaws to be amended,
allowing the Immediate Past President to fill an unexpected vacancy in the office of President
for the remainder of the vacating President's term. Changes to League bylaws require a
2/3rds vote of the General Assembly.
Staff Recommendation: Support
Resolution #2 - Resolution of the League of California Cites calling for legislation to preserve
therapeutic environments for group homes and avoid impacts of overconcentration of alcohol
and drug abuse recovery and treatment facilities in residential neighborhoods.
Summary: This resolution calls for the Governor and the Legislature to work with the League
and other stakeholders to explore options to address overconcentration of alcohol and drug
abuse recovery and treatment facilities in residential neighborhoods while respecting important
legal rights of patients and legal obligations of public entities, avoid the creation of institutional
settings when multiple facilities are concentrated in a single location, and determine the
appropriate balance between not-for-profit (including county) facilities and for-profit facilities in
residential neighborhoods.
Staff Recommendation: Support
Resolution #3 - Resolution of the League of California Cities supporting SB 593 (McGuire)
and continued local flexibility for cities as they address neighborhood and fiscal impacts of
temporary rentals of residential units.
Summary: This resolution seeks to highlight and increase support for SB 593 (McGuire),
which is pending in the Legislature. SB 593, titled the Thriving Communities and Sharing
Economy Act, seeks to bolster local efforts to regulate and collect transient occupancy taxes
from the temporary rental of residential houses, condominiums, and apartments for tourists
and transient use. The League is currently in support of this legislation.
Staff Recommendation: Neutral
Resolution #4 - Resolution calling upon the Governor and the Legislature to work with the
League of California Cities to enact legislation or to otherwise compel Southern California
Edison to create a program to automatically provide direct compensation to its customers
affected by prolonged electrical power outages under specified circumstances.
Summary: The proposed resolution calls upon the Governor and Legislature to enact
legislation (or take other action) that will provide rebates in flat amounts to SCE customers for
extended power outages under specified conditions.
Staff Recommendation: Neutral

GUIDELINES FOR ANNUAL CONFERENCE RESOLUTIONS
Policy development is a vital and ongoing process within the League. The principal means for deciding policy
on the important issues facing cities is through the League’s eight standing policy committees and the board of
directors. The process allows for timely consideration of issues in a changing environment and assures city
officials the opportunity to both initiate and influence policy decisions.
Annual conference resolutions constitute an additional way to develop League policy. Resolutions should
adhere to the following criteria.
Guidelines for Annual Conference Resolutions
1. Only issues that have a direct bearing on municipal affairs should be considered or adopted at the
Annual Conference.
2. The issue is not of a purely local or regional concern.
3. The recommended policy should not simply restate existing League policy.
4. The resolution should be directed at achieving one of the following objectives:
(a) Focus public or media attention on an issue of major importance to cities.
(b) Establish a new direction for League policy by establishing general principals around which
more detailed policies may be developed by policy committees and the board of directors.
(c) Consider important issues not adequately addressed by the policy committees and board of
directors.
(d) Amend the League bylaws (requires 2/3 vote at General Assembly).

2015 ANNUAL CONFERENCE RESOLUTIONS
RESOLUTION REFERRED TO ADMINISTRATIVE SERVICES POLICY COMMITTEE
1. RESOLUTION RELATING TO LEAGUE BYLAWS AMENDMENTS REGARDING
SUCCESSION OF LEAGUE OFFICES TO FILL VACANCIES
Source: League Board of Directors
Referred to: Administrative Services Policy Committee
Recommendation to General Resolutions Committee:
WHEREAS, the League of California Cities®
is a nonprofit mutual benefit corporation under
California law and, as such, is governed by corporate bylaws; and
WHEREAS, the League’s Board of Directors periodically reviews the League’s bylaws for
issues of clarity, practicality, compliance with current laws, and responsiveness to membership interests;
and
WHEREAS, on two occasions in recent years when vacancies arose in office of President of the
Board of Directors after disappointing reelection results, the vacancy was filled in accordance with the
League Bylaws by the First Vice President becoming President at the next Board meeting. This left a
vacancy in the office of First Vice President that was filled by the Board by advancing the Second Vice
President. This required recruiting a new Second Vice President that the Board chose, as provided in the
Bylaws, from the ranks of the Board itself; and
WHEREAS, in September 2014 the Board chose a new Second Vice President as usual and also
a new First Vice President who had not previously served as Second Vice President because the prior
Second Vice President was elected to county office and was no longer eligible. When the President was
not reelected in November 2014, the First Vice President advanced to the office of President with only
two months of experience as a League officer. Additionally, the Second Vice President was advanced to
First Vice President; and
WHEREAS, the Board of Directors believe this confluence of events twice in recent years
demonstrates a weakness in the succession of League offices required by the League Bylaws because the
accelerated advancement of officers in the event of a vacancy in the office of President may deprive the
junior officers and the League of adequate time to serve and develop expertise and relationships in the
offices of Second and First Vice President; and
WHEREAS, it is the unanimous recommendation of the League Board that the League
membership amend article VIII, section 4, of the League bylaws to allow the Immediate Past President to
fill an unexpected vacancy in the office of President for the unexpired term if the Immediate Past
President agrees. If not, the current succession process would occur; and now, therefore, be it,
RESOLVED, by the General Assembly of the League of California Cities assembled in Annual
Conference in San Jose, October 2, 2015, that article VIII, section 4 of the League bylaws be amended to
read as follows:
6
Article VIII: Officers
Section 1: Identity.
The officers of the League are a President, a First Vice-President, a Second Vice-President/Treasurer, an
Immediate Past President, and an Executive Director.
Section 2: Duties of League Officers.
(a) President. The President presides at all League Board meetings and all General Assemblies.
The President has such other powers and duties as may be prescribed by these bylaws or the
League Board.
(b) First Vice-President. The First Vice-President carries on the duties of the President in the
President’s temporary absence or incapacity. The First Vice-President has such other powers
and duties as may be prescribed by these bylaws or the League Board.
(c) Second Vice-President/Treasurer. The Second Vice-President/Treasurer carries on the
duties of the President in the President’s and First Vice-President’s temporary absence or
incapacity. The Second Vice-President/Treasurer has such other powers and duties as may be
prescribed by these bylaws or the League Board.
Section 3: Election.
The League Board elects the League’s President, First Vice-President and Second Vice-President for
terms of one year. The election occurs at the League Board’s meeting at the Annual Conference.
Section 4: Vacancies.
A vacancy in the office of President is filled at the next meeting of the League Board by the Immediate
Past President who shall serve for the unexpired term of office and, upon election of a new President at
the next Annual Conference, shall subsequently serve a full term as Immediate Past President. In the
event the Immediate Past President is not available to fill the vacancy in the office of the President, or
declines in writing, it shall be filled by the succession of the First Vice-President to that office. A vacancy
in the office of First Vice-President, or Second Vice-President/Treasurer, is filled for the un-expired term
by appointment by the League Board of a member of the League Board. A vacancy in the office of the
Immediate Past President is filled for the un-expired term by the last Past President continuing to hold a
city office.
//////////
Background Information on Resolution No. 1
Source: League Board of Directors
Background:
In 2010 and again recently in 2014 the city official elected League President at the Annual Conference in
September was not returned to office by the voters of their city. This development triggered a series of
steps laid out in the order of succession in the League Bylaws that mandates that the First Vice President
advance to the office of President at the next Board meeting and that the Board fill the vacancy in the
office of First Vice President for the remainder of the term.
7
When the Board filled the League offices in September 2014, the Second Vice President could not
advance to First Vice President since she had been elected to the office of county supervisor and was
ineligible to serve. Consequently the Board selected two directors to fill both the offices of First Vice
President and Second Vice President. Neither had previously served as a League officer.
When the vacancy in the office of President occurred after the November general election, the First Vice
President advanced to the office of President after having served only two months as a League officer in
contrast to the normal advancement process of twenty-four months. The Second Vice President was
advanced to the office of First Vice President after having served only two months as a League officer.
The Board also chose a new Second Vice President.
At the February, 2015 meeting of the League Board of Directors, the Executive Committee recommended
unanimously an amendment to the order of succession in Art. VIII, Sec. 4 of the League Bylaws. The
proposed amendment would allow the most experienced member of the Executive Committee, the
Immediate Past President, to fill out the remainder of the term of office of a President who leaves the
office before its term is completed if the Immediate Past President is willing and able to do so. This
arrangement would allow the First Vice President to continue serving and to advance to the office of
President on the schedule envisioned by the League Bylaws. If the Immediate Past President were unable
or unwilling to serve, the existing order of succession would occur.
//////////
League of California Cities Staff Analysis on Resolution No. 1
Staff: Alicia Lewis
Committee: Administrative Services Policy Committee
Summary:
This resolution seeks to streamline the succession process when filling a vacancy for the office of
President of the Board of Directors. It would allow for the League bylaws to be amended, allowing the
Immediate Past President to fill an unexpected vacancy in the office of President for the remainder of the
vacating President’s term. Changes to League bylaws require a 2/3 vote of the General Assembly.
Background:
The past few years have yielded several occasions where the succession line for Board of Directors
leadership was disrupted due to disappointing election results and officers taking office outside of city
government.
In September 2014 the Board chose a new First and Second Vice President. The First Vice President had
not previously served as Second Vice President because the prior member was elected to county office
and therefore no longer eligible. When the President was not reelected in the November 2014, the First
Vice President advanced to the office of President with only two months of experience as a League
officer. Additionally, the Second Vice President was advanced to First Vice President. This transition far
outpaced the normal process for advancing as an officer on the Board of Directors.
Fiscal Impact:
This impact of this resolution would have no fiscal impact.
Comments:
The nature of this resolution is to ensure that there is a smooth succession process in place and that
current Vice-Presidents (First and Second) have ample time to prepare for their role as President. By
8
allowing the Immediate Past President to finish out the term of a vacated presidency the Board would
ensure there is minimal disruption to the workflow and goals of the association.

2. A RESOLUTION OF THE LEAGUE OF CALIFORNIA CITIES CALLING FOR
LEGISLATION TO PRESERVE THERAPEUTIC ENVIRONMENTS FOR GROUP HOMES
AND AVOID IMPACTS OF OVERCONCENTRATION OF ALCOHOL AND DRUG ABUSE
RECOVERY AND TREATMENT FACILITIES IN RESIDENTIAL NEIGHBORHOODS
Source: City of Malibu
Concurrence of five or more cities/city officials: Cities: Artesia; Duarte; La Canada Flintridge;
Lakewood; Lomita; and Pico Rivera. City Officials: Los Angeles Council Member Mitchell Englander
Referred to: Housing, Community and Economic Development Policy Committee
Recommendation to General Resolutions Committee:
WHEREAS, residential group home facilities provide valuable rehabilitation and support services
for those who live in them, which benefits the greater society; and
WHEREAS, state departments license these facilities through several state agencies, and operators
are required to meet various state statutory requirements; and
WHEREAS, in addition to residents, these facilities often include live-in managers and other staff,
who provide a variety of services to residents which may include meals, workshops, training, counseling
and other services. These uses and services may also require frequent deliveries to be made to the
facility, shuttle van service provided to residents, and additional automobile traffic due to shift changes,
visiting hours, and other activities. Collectively, these uses often generate more noise and activity than
expected from a traditional single-family home; and
WHEREAS, the overconcentration of residential group homes changes the character of
neighborhoods as they become centers for the delivery of various services. This environment not only
creates a disruption to long-time residents, it can also diminish the quality of the residential treatment
experience for group home residents as the neighborhood assumes a more institutional setting; and
WHEREAS, the State and local governments operate in partnership regarding the location of these
residential care facilities in residential neighborhoods in order to carry out the policy of the State to
prevent overconcentration of such facilities in these neighborhoods; and
WHEREAS, the state has adopted a 300 foot separation requirement between facilities licensed by
the Department of Social Services, 1
but these siting standards have not been extended to apply to
facilities licensed by other state agencies such as the Department of Health Care Services or other
licensed or unlicensed facilities; and
WHEREAS, it is the policy of the State that each county and city permit and encourage
development of sufficient numbers and types of alcoholism or drug abuse recovery or treatment facilities
as are commensurate with local need;2
and

WHEREAS, the California Fair Employment and Housing Act includes legal protection against
discrimination against persons with disabilities through zoning laws, denials of use permits, and other
actions authorized under the Planning and Zoning Law;3
and
WHEREAS, the Americans with Disabilities Act requires public entities to make reasonable
accommodations in policies, practices, or procedures to avoid discrimination on the basis of a disability;4
and
WHEREAS, there is no provision in State law that allows for the consideration of the impact of
alcoholism or drug abuse recovery or treatment facilities on single-family neighborhoods or the
overconcentration of these facilities as there is for residential group home facilities; and
WHEREAS, many community concerns could be addressed if State agencies communicated and
collaborated more with local governments; and
WHEREAS, the League of California Cities is committed to working in partnership with the
Legislature and Administration to address overconcentration of alcohol and drug abuse recovery and
treatment facilities in residential neighborhoods while respecting important legal rights of patients and
legal obligations established by State and federal law.
RESOLVED, at the League of California Cities General Assembly, assembled at the League
Annual Conference on October 2, 2015 in San Jose, that the League calls for the Governor and the
Legislature to work with the League and other stakeholders to address the following issues:
1. Explore options to address overconcentration of alcohol and drug abuse recovery and treatment
facilities in residential neighborhoods while respecting important legal rights of patients and legal
obligations of public entities.
2. Avoid the creation of institutional settings when multiple facilities are concentrated in a single
location, while also reducing noise, congestion and other concerns often raised by residents in
residential neighborhoods.
3. Determine the appropriate balance between not-for-profit (including county) facilities and for-profit
facilities in residential neighborhoods.
//////////
Background Information on Resolution No. 2
Source: City of Malibu
Background:
State law preempts local zoning regulation for licensed drug and alcohol treatment facilities. State and
federal anti-discrimination laws require cities to treat facilities that function as single housekeeping units
the same as any other “family.” In many areas of the state, these facilities are impacting residential
neighborhoods because their concentration in certain neighborhoods tends to change the character of the
area from a residential neighborhood to more like a hospital and institutional zone in terms of the land use
impacts.
In order to avoid overconcentration in residential neighborhoods, most state-licensed group homes are
required by state law to meet certain distancing requirements from other licensed group homes. Alcohol
3
Government Code 12955(l)
4
42 U.S.C. Section 12134
10
and drug programs are treated differently under state law in this respect and no distancing requirements
apply. In fact, the state licensing agency does not impose any restrictions on the number of facilities in the
vicinity of one another and have been allowing licensees to obtain two licenses on one lot and to operate
integrated multi-structure facilities under the guise of multiple single-family residential
licenses. Similarly, state law currently requires private foster family agencies operating in residential
zones to be organized and operated on a nonprofit basis, while drug and alcohol programs and sober living
homes are permitted to operate as a for-profit business in residential zones. The addiction recovery
industry has become big business. There are now thousands of treatment facilities and sober living homes
in California and the number is rapidly increasing.
State policy sought integration of group homes into residential neighborhoods, not disintegration of the
residential character of the neighborhoods. A course correction is required to advance state
policy. Through zoning authority, cities can preserve the very neighborhoods that the community-care
model depends on to provide the therapeutic environment of a residential neighborhood. Distancing
requirements both respond to the biggest concern of local government (over concentration that impairs
neighborhood character) and advances state policy. In addition, limiting the zoning preemption to non-
profit programs will also assist in preserving the integrity of residential neighborhoods.

League of California Cities Staff Analysis on Resolution No. 2
Staff: Dan Carrigg
Committee: Housing, Community and Economic Development
Summary:
This Resolution calls for the Governor and the Legislature to work with the League and other
stakeholders to explore options to address overconcentration of alcohol and drug abuse recovery and
treatment facilities in residential neighborhoods while respecting important legal rights of patients and
legal obligations of public entities, avoid the creation of institutional settings when multiple facilities are
concentrated in a single location, and determine the appropriate balance between not-for-profit (including
county) facilities and for-profit facilities in residential neighborhoods.
Background:
The City of Malibu is sponsoring this resolution as a way of highlighting an issue that continues to create
zoning and land use problems in single-family neighborhoods. While this is not a new issue for the
League and its cities, and the League has existing policy in this area, the sponsors view the passage of this
resolution as helpful in restarting conversations with the Legislature and the Governor’s Administration
that can hopefully lead to productive solutions.
HCED Committee member and Malibu Council Member Lou La Monte raised this issue at the
Committee’s June meeting, where he presented a resolution that had recently been adopted by the
California Contract Cities Association on May 15. The Committee encouraged him to work with League
staff in his effort to draft a measure to be presented at the League’s annual conference. League staff
worked with Mr. La Monte in this regard, mostly in helping ensure that the various “whereas clauses”
appropriately reflect the important legal rights of patients and obligations of public entities that
Legislators will expect to be balanced in any solutions to local land use issues.
Resolved Clauses from Recent CCCA Resolution:
NOW THEREFORE, the Members of the California Contract Cities Association hereby re-affirms its
commitment to cooperation among units of government that serve the people of California and urges the
11
California state legislature to enact legislation that empowers local government to preserve the
residential character of neighborhoods necessary to effect state policy regarding group homes as follows:
1. Amend the state law to provide the same distancing and notice requirements for ADP facilities as
it does for Community Care Act facilities;
2. Enact legislation providing standards that prevent overconcentration of unlicensed sober living
homes to maintain residential character of neighborhoods which has therapeutic benefit for the
occupants; and
3. Restrict the zoning preemption for licensed ADP facilities to those owned and operated by non-
profit organizations.
Fiscal Impact:
Minor, if any.
Comment:
1) The League has significant existing policy in this area. In the past the League has had internal
task forces and sponsored and supported various legislative proposals.
2) Making significant progress in this area has been difficult in the Capitol. Federal and state fair
housing and anti-discrimination laws and various court decisions have bearing on local authority
in this area. Patient advocacy groups and sympathetic legislators have been suspicious of any
solutions that they see as limiting patient access. Thus, any effort to develop solutions to address
local land use concerns must also remain sensitive to these issues and the perspective of
legislators that sit on committees with jurisdiction in these areas.
Existing League Policy:
Related to this Resolution, existing policy provides:
• The League supports permitting cities to exercise review and land use regulation of group home
facilities and residential care facilities in residential neighborhoods including the application of
zoning, building and safety standards. State and county licensing agencies should be required to
confer with the city’s planning agency in determining whether to grant a license to a community
care facility. The League recognizes that better review and regulation of residential care facilities
will protect both the community surrounding a facility and the residents within a facility from a
poorly managed facility or the absence of state oversight.
• The League supports state legislation to require a minimum distance of 300 feet between all new
and existing residential care facilities. The League supports notification of cities about
conditional release participants residing in group homes.

Recommendation to General Resolutions Committee:
12
WHEREAS, the temporary rental of residential houses, condominiums, rooms, and apartments
for tourist or transient use is a developing part of the sharing economy; and
WHEREAS, while these rentals provide additional options to the traveling public, and income to
affected property owners or tenants, it is also important that such rentals comply with local laws,
regulations and ordinances; and
WHEREAS, the temporary rental of residential houses, condominiums, rooms, and apartments
for tourist or transient use can present numerous challenges to neighborhoods and adjacent property
owners and create additional noise, traffic, parking, privacy and public safety issues, subvert local rent-
control laws, decrease available housing stock and in some cases turn residential neighborhoods into de-
facto hotel rows; and
WHEREAS, where temporary rental of residential units for tourist or transient use is allowed in
conformance with local laws, regulations and ordinances, the applicable transient occupancy tax (TOT)
should also be collected. The temporary rental of residential units for tourist or transient use is in direct
competition with hotels, motels and other accommodations where guests pay the local TOT, so all such
uses should be subject to the same tax. The revenues generated support local streets, roads, fire, police,
lifeguards, trash pick-up, park maintenance and other local public services which directly affect local
quality of life and the attraction of the community for a visitor; and
WHEREAS, the Thriving Communities and Sharing Economy Act, introduced as SB 593 by
Senator Mike McGuire (D-2, Healdsburg), prohibits the operators of transient residential hosting
platforms from advertising residential units for tourist or transient use if such use will violate any
ordinance, regulation, or law within the applicable city or county that opts into its provisions, and requires
the confidential quarterly reporting to the city or county of the following information (if the City or
County adopts an ordinance requiring the reporting of the data):
1. The address of each residential unit that was occupied for tourist or transient use during the
quarterly period.
2. The total number of nights the residential unit was occupied for tourist or transient use.
3. The amounts paid for the occupancy of the residential unit for tourist or transient use.
WHEREAS, the provisions of SB 593 bolster existing local authority to enforce local ordinances
and collect revenue associated with the temporary rental of residential units by allowing local agencies
access to the data necessary to enforce their ordinances and requiring short-term rental hosting platforms
to collect local TOT and remit it to the appropriate jurisdiction if short-term rentals are allowed in that
jurisdiction; and
WHEREAS, the provisions of SB 593 provide a helpful regulatory framework that cities and
counties may choose in lieu of exercising their existing authority; and
WHEREAS, the League of California Cities supports SB 593 because it recognizes and
preserves local flexibility to address the temporary rental of residential units in the manner that best fits
with the unique issues and conditions found in each local jurisdiction; and
WHEREAS, SB 593 provides local jurisdictions with the data and framework necessary to
collect TOT revenues from short-term rentals, to pay for vital local services; and
WHEREAS, SB 593 provides local jurisdictions with the data and framework necessary to
enforce local regulations designed to ensure the safety of the public and residents living adjacent to short-
term rentals; and
13
WHEREAS, despite any existing challenges faced by cities in regulating or collecting revenue
from the temporary rental of residential units, cities would oppose any effort to undermine their existing
local authority to regulate land use or collect local TOT revenue.
RESOLVED, at the League of California Cities General Assembly, assembled at the League
Annual Conference on October 2, 2015 in San Jose, as follows:
1. Land use regulation and local tax collection are best overseen and implemented locally.
2. While temporary rental of residential units can offer innovative opportunities for travelers
and property owners within the developing sharing economy, cities must retain flexibility to
address any problems raised by such uses in a manner that reflects the unique issues and
conditions in their communities.
3. Cities have existing legal authority and tools to regulate and collect revenue from the
temporary rental of residential units, and SB 593 provides the data and framework that
supports and bolsters such local efforts.
4. The League encourages cities to support SB 593.

Background Information on Resolution No. 3
Source: City of West Hollywood
Background:
The sharing economy has quickly become common place in the everyday life of many individuals,
whether they participate in ride-sharing, have rented a short-term residential unit, or live in a community
were either is prevalent. The sharing economy has provided benefits to many, but also includes many
issues that must be addressed in order to allow these sharing practices to effectively incorporate into our
communities. Specifically, the short-term rental of residential units has grown exponentially within the
last several years throughout the State, and its impacts need to be addressed.
Presently, many cities and counties prohibit the renting of residences for less than 30 days. However,
these prohibitions are frequently ignored by Online Vacation Rental Businesses (“OVRBs”), causing
unwanted burdens on cities while reducing TOT collection from sanctioned hotels. The short-term rental
of residential properties presents numerous challenges within neighborhoods and to adjacent property
owners. They may create additional noise, traffic, parking, privacy and public safety issues, subvert local
rent-control laws, decrease available housing stock and in some cases turn residential neighborhoods into
de-facto hotel rows. The rentals facilitated by OVRB’s in these cities and counties go against the
expressed wishes of the residents.
For the cities and counties that do allow short-term residential rentals, most require hosts to register and
that transient occupancy taxes be paid. However, registration and payment of TOT in these cities and
counties are based on the owners of the short terms residential units voluntarily reporting their rental
activity. However, there has been a severe under-registration of hosts and underpayment of TOT. Only
10% of hosts in San Francisco have followed the city ordinance to register. Sonoma County has had to
spend in excess of $200,000 in an attempt to track down those rentals that are not paying the required
TOT under the ordinance. And Los Angeles is currently experiencing a rental housing shortage due in
part to the recent popularity of OVRBs.
14
Cities and counties have been unable to obtain this information due to the fact that OVRB’s pass their
responsibility to individual homeowners. This lack of oversight and enforcement presents a gap in
accountability, and as a result, local laws and regulations are not being followed.
Sen. Mike McGuire’s Thriving Communities and Sharing Economy Act (SB 593) will provide local
jurisdictions with the data and framework necessary to collect TOT revenues from short-term rentals, to
pay for vital local services; or conversely, the data necessary to help cities enforce local regulations
designed to ensure the safety of the public and residents living adjacent to short-term rentals, if those
rental are not allowed.
Specifically, SB 593 would: 1) Prohibit the operators of short-term residential hosting platforms from
advertising residential units for tourist or transient use if such use will violate any ordinance, regulation,
or law, within the applicable city that opts into the bill’s provisions; 2) Require short-term rental housing
platforms to collect and remit applicable transient occupancy tax (if short-term rentals are allowed in the
city and the collection of TOT is required by the city); and 3) Require the confidential quarterly reporting
of the address of each residential unit that was occupied for tourist or transient use during the quarterly
period, the total number of nights the residential unit was occupied for tourist or transient use, and the
amounts paid for the occupancy of the residential unit for tourist or transient use.
The premise of SB 593 is simple: reinforce local laws already on the books. Where vacation rentals are
legal, the bill will assist local jurisdictions in their regulation and collection of Transient Occupancy
Taxes, (TOT) as more than 430 cities and 56 counties impose a TOT. Where vacation rentals are illegal
by local ordinance, the bill will prohibit online vacation rental businesses from making a rental.
The Thriving Communities and Sharing Economies Act will empower local control, provide desperately
needed funding for parks, local roads, fire and police services, and promote safe neighborhoods. SB 593
will require online vacation rental businesses to disclose information to cities and counties and/or collect
and disperse Transient Occupancy Tax dollars – projected to be in the hundreds of millions of dollars
statewide.
The emerging short term rental industry is an important segment of the state economic fabric and an issue
of statewide importance. SB 593 would assist in facilitating a shared economy that will be beneficial to
California’s cities and their residents.

League of California Cities Staff Analysis on Resolution No. 3
Staff: Dan Carrigg
Committees: Housing, Community & Economic Development; Revenue & Taxation
Summary:
This Resolution seeks to highlight and increase support for SB 593 (McGuire), which is pending in the
Legislature. SB 593, titled the Thriving Communities and Sharing Economy Act, seeks to bolster local
efforts to regulate and collect transient occupancy taxes from the temporary rental of residential houses,
condominiums, rooms, and apartments for tourists and transient use. The League is currently in support
of this legislation.
Background:
The City of West Hollywood and other cities are sponsoring the resolution in an effort to expand
awareness of the issue among cities and encourage additional support for SB 593. They view the
15
legislation as helpful in bolstering local efforts to appropriately regulate a growing vacation rental
industry.
The author introduced SB 593 based upon his past experience as both former Mayor of Healdsburg and a
Sonoma County Supervisor. These areas are popular with tourists, and the affected communities are
facing increasing land use and revenue collection issues. SB 593 is currently on the Senate Floor and is
considered a “two-year bill,” meaning that it cannot move until January 2016.
In addition to the League, SB 593 has a broad range of support:

Fiscal Impact:
Transient Occupancy Taxes are a significant source of local revenue. Many cities and counties are
encountering challenges identifying units in their community that are being used as vacation rentals and
collecting associated revenue. Where vacation rentals are permitted by local ordinance, the passage of SB
593 can assist local efforts, thereby increasing local revenues to support local services.
Comment:
3) Earlier this year the League’s Housing Community and Economic Development Committee and
Revenue and Taxation Committee reviewed an earlier version of SB 593 and initially adopted a
16
Support, If Amended position, which was concurred with by the League board. The author later
incorporated the League’s amendments into the bill and the League issued a support letter on the
current version of the bill.
4) Local governments already have extensive authority to regulate land use and collect local taxes.
While vacation rentals may be an increasingly popular option for the traveling public, local
ordinances are beginning to adjust. The League supports SB 593 because it is crafted in a way
that supports local authority in dealing with this emerging issue. Local agencies can either opt in
to its provisions or continue to address issues differently under their existing local authority.
Existing League Policy:
Related to this Resolution, existing policy provides:
HCED Policy: The League believes that local zoning is a primary function of cities and is an essential
component of home rule.
Rev. & Tax Policy: Additional revenue is required in the state/local revenue structure. There is not
enough money generated by the current system or allocated to the local level by the current system to
meet the requirements of a growing population and deteriorating services and facilities.

TO OTHERWISE COMPEL SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA EDISON TO CREATE A
PROGRAM TO AUTOMATICALLY PROVIDE DIRECT COMPENSATION TO ITS
CUSTOMERS AFFECTED BY PROLONGED ELECTRICAL POWER OUTAGES UNDER
SPECIFIED CIRCUMSTANCES.

Recommendations to General Resolutions Committee:
WHEREAS, local governments in California are often reliant upon investor-owned private utility
companies for the provision of electrical power to their citizens, businesses and institutions; and,
WHEREAS, the reliability and consistency of electrical supply and transmission is critically
important to local governments to ensure the protection of the public safety, health and general welfare of
communities; and,
WHEREAS, prolonged disruptions in electrical service can jeopardize the health of citizens who
have a variety of physical challenges and rely on a constant source of power for medical devices; the
safety of senior citizens who are particularly susceptible to injury if power outages persist for long periods
of time into evening hours; and the financial well-being of citizens, businesses and institutions that suffer
from the loss of food, medication and other perishable items during prolonged power outages; and,
WHEREAS, Southern California Edison (SCE), an investor-owned utility serving 15 million
customers in Southern and Central California, experiences frequent and prolonged service disruptions due
to both planned and unplanned outages, equipment failures and weather-related events, which adversely
affect local governments within its service area; and,
17
WHEREAS, SCE has been fined by the California Public Utilities Commission in the past due to
prolonged service disruptions, most recently being levied a $24.5 million penalty as a result of a
prolonged outage that resulted from a wind storm in 2011; and,
WHEREAS, although SCE provides a claim process by which its customers may seek
compensation for financial losses incurred as a result of prolonged service disruptions, SCE appears to
reject most such claims; which places an unreasonable burden upon its customers and creates a false
impression that customers will be compensated for their losses; and,
WHEREAS, at least one other investor-owned utility in California, Pacific Gas and Electric
(PG&E) in Northern and Central California, has existing programs and procedures in place (“Safety Net”
and “Service Guarantee”) that automatically and directly compensate its customers when they are affected
by prolonged service disruptions, including disruptions due to weather events and other causes, without
the need for customers to seek compensation through a claim process; and,
WHEREAS, these PG&E programs provide for “Storm Inconvenience Payments” of $25 to $100
for weather-related service disruptions of forty-eight (48) hours or more; as well as $30 service credits in
instances of where the customer’s electrical service is not restored within four (4) hours, or the customer
is not provided with a time for service restoration within four (4) hours; the customer is without electrical
service for twenty-four (24) hours or more in the event of unplanned service disruptions (unless the cause
of the disruption is completely beyond the utility’s control); and the customer is without electrical service
as a result of a planned service interruption where less than seventy-two (72) hours’ notice is provided to
the customer; and,
WHEREAS, local governments within SCE’s service area believe that requiring SCE to
implement automatic and direct compensation programs for prolonged service disruptions, similar to
those implemented by PG&E, will provide tangible relief to citizens, businesses and institutions that are
adversely affected by prolonged outages, and will incentivize SCE to improve the reliability of its
equipment and service; and now therefore let it be,
RESOLVED by the General Assembly of the League of California Cities, assembled in San Jose
on October 2, 2015, that the League calls for the Governor and the Legislature to work with the League of
California Cities to enact legislation or to otherwise compel SCE to create a program to automatically
provide direct compensation to its customers affected by prolonged electrical power outages under
specified circumstances; and let it be,
FURTHER RESOLVED that such program shall be modeled upon PG&E’s “Safety Net” and
“Service Guarantee” programs, and shall cover weather-related events and planned and unplanned service
disruptions.

Background Information on Resolution No. 4
Source: City of Rancho Palos Verdes
Background:
The City of Rancho Palos Verdes and other cities in the South Bay region of Los Angeles County have
longstanding concerns regarding the ineffective process by which Southern California Edison (SCE)
addresses residents’ claims, and desires to obtain the League’s assistance in correcting that process. On
the Palos Verdes Peninsula, SCE’s aged infrastructure has caused fires and repeated, prolonged power
18
outages. The prolonged power outages are the focus of this request, because they adversely affect
residents in a variety of ways, particularly:
• Residents who have a variety of physical challenges and rely on a constant source of power for
medical devices;
• Residents who are senior citizens and are particularly susceptible to injury if power outages
persist for a long period of time into the evening hours; and,
• Residents who suffer financial burdens as a result of losing food, medication and other perishable
items during prolonged power outages.
The California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) has the authority to impose penalties on utilities,
including for prolonged power outages, and did so in connection with an extreme wind event that
occurred in the Los Angeles area in 2011. However, the CPUC is not authorized to award claims to
residents for prolonged electrical power outages. If a resident has a claim he or she wishes to pursue, the
resident must file a claim with SCE, along with documentation of the financial loss that was incurred. If
the claim is rejected, the resident then must file a lawsuit against SCE (probably in small claims court).
Most residents will not want to spend the time and effort to pursue small claims for monetary damages
arising from extended power outages.
SCE only awards claims for damages caused by its own negligence. This means that if an extended
power outage is caused by a weather-related event, the claim will be denied. The SCE website also states
that it will not cover claims for power surges. Since SCE often moves power from one line to another to
enable repairs and maintenance, SCE can be the cause of the power surge, but residents still will not
receive compensation for those claims.
Proposed Legislation
The proposed resolution calls upon the Governor and Legislature to enact legislation (or take other action)
that will provide rebates in flat amounts to SCE customers for extended power outages under specified
conditions. The proposed legislation could be modeled on the “Safety Net” and “Service Guarantee”
programs offered by Pacific Gas and Electric (PG&E), another California-based investor-owned utility,
which provides specific rebates to its customers based upon the type, cause and duration of service
interruptions. These penalties are designed to provide direct compensation to SCE’s customers who are
adversely affected by prolonged power outages, and to incentivize SCE to restore the power as quickly as
possible. They also will eliminate the frustration that SCE’s customers experience as a result of SCE’s
existing claim process.

League of California Cities Staff Analysis on Resolution No. 4
Staff: Jason Rhine
Committee: Environmental Quality
Summary:
Resolution No. 4 calls upon the Governor and the Legislature to work with the League of California
Cities to enact legislation or to otherwise compel Southern California Edison (SCE) to create a program to
automatically provide direct compensation to its customers affected by a prolonged electrical power
outage under specified circumstances.
Background:
City of Rancho Palos Verdes asserts that the South Bay region of Los Angeles County has longstanding
concern regarding the ineffective process by which SCE addresses residents’ claims associated with
19
prolonged electrical power outages. The City believes that SCE’s aged infrastructure has caused fires and
repeated, prolonged electrical power outages. Prolonged electrical power outages can adversely affect
residents who have physical challenges and rely on a constant source of power for medical devices;
residents who are senior citizens and are particularly susceptible to injury if electrical power outages
persist for a long period of time into the evening hours; and, residents who suffer financial burdens as a
result of losing food, medication and other perishable items during prolonged electrical power outages.
According to information provided by SCE, SCE has the following customer compensation program:
Service Guarantee Program
SCE shall provide the following four service guarantees to its electric customers and provide a
$30 credit when these service guarantees are not met. Unless otherwise stated below, the four
service standards apply only to active service accounts served under the Residential, General
Service and Industrial, or Agricultural and Pumping rate schedules.
• Restoration of Service Within 24 Hours: SCE will restore electrical service within 24
hours of when SCE first becomes aware of a power outage. The first credit will be
applied if the outage exceeds 24 hours. Additional credits will be applied for each
succeeding 24-hour period that the customer is without service. Partial credits will not be
paid for outage periods less than a full 24-hour increment. Power outages associated
with a moderate, severe, or catastrophic storm condition are exempt from the program.
• Missed Appointments: When an appointment for a field service visit is made with a
customer for a specific appointment time, and the customer’s presence is required for
establishing new service, a billing inquiry, or meter installation, SCE will arrive at the
agreed upon appointment within 30 minutes before or after the scheduled time.
• Notification of Planned Outages: SCE will provide customers with notification of a
planned outage at least three calendar days prior to the event. SCE will notify customers
either by US Postal Service mail, by phone, in-person or door-to-door through door
hangers, or by e-mail if SCE has the customer’s e-mail address on file. If a planned
outage is rescheduled to a new date not specified in the original notice to the customer,
SCE will provide a new notice at least three calendar days in advance of the rescheduled
planned outage.
• Timely and Accurate First Bill: SCE will issue an accurate first bill to a new customer
of record within 60 days of establishing service. The bill and bill accuracy is defined
according to the terms and conditions of SCE’s Rule 9 (Rendering and Payment of Bills)
and Rule 17 Section A (Adjustment of Bills and Meter Tests Usage) and Section D
(Adjustment of Bills for Billing Error). The service guarantee credit process will be
initiated once SCE is aware that the first bill was either inaccurate or issued beyond sixty
days of establishing service. The first bill for any given customer account is eligible for
only one service guarantee credit regardless of whether the bill is late, inaccurate, or both.
According to PG&E’s website, PG&E offers the following customer compensation programs:
Compensation for Extended Outages
STORMS MESSAGE: If you are a residential customer and have gone without power for at
least 48 hours due to severe storm conditions, you may qualify for a payment under PG&E's
Safety Net Program. This program provides for the automatic payment of $25 - $100, which is
paid about 60 days following the storm outage. In some cases, processing may take 90-120 days
(heavy storm season).
Safety Net Program
We understand how inconvenient it is for customers who go without power for 48 hours or longer
due to severe events, such as a storm. That is why PG&E created the following:
20
• PG&E will provide payments to residential customers we determine were without power
for more than 48 hours due to a severe storm.
• The payments will range from $25 up to $100, depending on the length of the outage.
Eligibility
• The Storm Inconvenience Payment provision of the Safety Net Program applies to
residential customers only (rate schedules E-1, E-6, E-7, E-8, E-9, EM, ES, ESR, ET, and
EV); customers also may be enrolled in programs such as CARE and medical baseline.
• Businesses, agricultural accounts, multi-family building common areas, streetlights, and
all other customers other than residential customers are ineligible for Storm
Inconvenience Payments.
• Storm Inconvenience Payments will not be issued to customers in areas where access to
PG&E's electric facilities was blocked (mud slides, road closures or other access issues).
Also, if customer equipment prevented restoral or extended customer outage (ex.
weatherhead, service drop, etc.).
• The outage must have occurred during a major weather-related event that caused
significant damage to PG&E's electric distribution system.
• The outage must have lasted more than 48 hours.
• Storm Inconvenience Payments are in increments of $25 ($100 maximum per event).
Payment levels are based on the length of the customer's outage:
o 48 to 72 hours $25
o 72 to 96 hours $50
o 96 to 120 hours $75
o 120 hours or more $100
• Both bundled-service and direct-access residential customers qualify for Storm
Inconvenience Payments.
• Storm Inconvenience Payments will be issued to the customer of record.
• A customer with multiple residential services such as a primary residence and a vacation
home is eligible for Storm Inconvenience Payments at each location where there was a
storm-related outage of more than 48 hours.
• Customers must have an open account (service agreement) in good standing at the time of
the outage and at the time payment is issued (generally 45 to 60 days after the event).
• For master-metered accounts such as mobile home parks, the customer of record will
receive the Storm Inconvenience Payment for the master meter only.
Service Guarantee Program
Gas and electricity are essential to keep your life running smoothly, safely and efficiently. When
your service is interrupted or in need of repair, you expect a reasonable and timely response. To
ensure that we provide this to you, PG&E has implemented service guarantees, which spell out
our commitment to prompt customer service for our customers:
• Guarantee 1: Missed Appointments: PG&E will meet the agreed upon appointment
time set with our customer during contact with our Call Center or automatically credit
your account $30.
• Guarantee 2: Non-Emergency Investigations: PG&E will investigate non-emergency
situations (check meter) and communicate results to a customer within seven days of a
customer's request. Check-meter appointments between October 15 and December 15 of
each year will be scheduled within 10 workdays. If an off-site meter test is required,
PG&E will communicate the results to the customer within 30 days. If access is required
to the customer's premises, then an appointment is necessary. Failure to meet the service
guarantee will result in a $30 credit to the customer’s account. An automatic credit to the
customer’s account would apply only if PG&E misses a scheduled appointment date. If
21
the appointment is scheduled beyond five workdays, the customer must notify PG&E to
receive the credit. If PG&E's records show that such scheduling was at the customer's
request, the credit does not apply.
• Guarantee 3: Emergency: The Emergency Service Guarantee is not currently in effect.
• Guarantee 4: Complaint Resolution: PG&E will decide on a course of action to
resolve a complaint and communicate it to the customer within three working days.
PG&E will communicate the complaints resolution to the customer within 10 working
days, or 30 working days when an off-site meter test is required or an on-site home audit
is requested. Failure to meet the service guarantee will result in a $30 credit to the
customer’s account.
• Guarantee 5: New Meter Installations: PG&E will meet the agreed upon date for new
service meter installations and service turn-ons or automatically credit your account $50.
• Guarantee 6: Electric Service Disruptions: PG&E will respond to customer calls
reporting electric service interruptions within four hours by restoring service; or by
informing the customer, upon request, when service restoration is expected; or
automatically credit your account $30.
• Guarantee 7: Electric Service Restoration: PG&E will restore electric service within
24 hours, unless the cause is absolutely beyond our control, or we will automatically
credit your account $30 for each 24-hour period you are without service.
• Guarantee 8: Commencing Bills: PG&E will issue an accurate commencing bill to a
new customer account within 60 days of service initiation, or we will automatically credit
your account $30.
• Guarantee 9: Planned Interruptions: PG&E shall provide at least three days’ notice
of a planned interruption in service. Failure to meet the service guarantee will result in a
$30 credit to the customer’s account. This guarantee will require a customer call and
PG&E investigation to determine if PG&E’s commitment to notify customers 72 hours in
advance of planned interruptions was missed. Customers notified of planned service
interruptions 72 hours in advance may have their service interrupted on multiple
occasions on the date(s).
• Guarantee 10: Service Termination in Error: Impacted customers will be eligible for
a $100 credit adjustment if PG&E terminates service in error.
Fiscal Impact:
No Impact on City Funds. Compelling SCE to create automatic direct compensation programs modeled
on PG&E’s “Safety Net” and “Service Guarantee” programs would have no direct fiscal impact on cities
because the “Safety Net” program is limited to residential customers and the “Service Guarantee”
program is very similar to SCE’s existing program. However, residential customers would receive direct
payments in specified circumstances for prolonged electrical power outages.
Comment:
• The City of Rancho Palos Verdes, in sponsoring this resolution, does not believe that SCE has an
effective process to address customer damage claims associated with prolonged electrical power
outages. According to the resolution, the City of Rancho Palos Verdes would like to compel SCE
to create a program to automatically provide direct compensation to its customers affected by
prolonged electrical power outages under specified circumstances. Additionally, the program
would be modeled upon PG&E “Safety Net” and “Service Guarantee” programs, and shall cover
weather-related events and planned and unplanned service disruptions.
• What is SCE’s process to provide relief to customers that have experienced a prolonged
electrical power outage? As part of SCE’s four point service guarantee program,
customers experiencing an electrical power outages exceeding 24 hours, may qualify for
a $30 credit under specific conditions. However, prolonged electrical power outages
22
caused by a moderate, severe, or catastrophic storm condition are exempt from the
program.
• How does PG&E provide relief to customers that have experienced a prolonged
electrical power outage? Like SCE, PG&E has a multi-point service guarantee program
that provides customer credits that range from $30 -$100 for a wide range of activities.
In addition, PG&E has a specific, weather related program, the “Safety Net” program,
which provides automatic, direct payment to customers experiencing electrical power
outages, in excess of 48 hours.
• What type of customer compensation program does the Resolution call for? The
Resolution calls for a customer compensation program that expands beyond PG&E’s two
existing programs. Under the Resolution, the City of Rancho Palos Verdes would like to
compel SCE to adopt a program based on PG&E’s “Safety Net” and “Service Guarantee”
programs, and also cover weather-related events and planned and unplanned service
disruptions.
• Do these programs really provide funds to residential customers? While the Resolution
holds PG&E’s programs in high esteem, after hearing from a number of city officials in
PG&E’s service territory, it seems that there is a great deal of skepticism around the
effectiveness and utilization of their residential compensation programs. Is PG&E’s
program really working as described?
• What about California’s other Investor Owned Utilities (IOU) and municipal utilities?
The Resolution is directed at SCE. However, the committee may want to consider the
implications of the Resolution on the other investor owned utilities and municipal
utilities.
• Is legislation the best approach? The Resolution calls upon the Governor and the Legislature to
work with the League of California Cities to enact legislation or to otherwise compel SCE to
create a program to automatically provide direct compensation to its customers affected by a
prolonged electrical power outage. Given that the California Public Utilities Commission
regulates all of the investor owned utilities, it may be more appropriate to seek a regulatory
change rather than a legislative proposal.
• More information to come. The Resolution could have broader implications beyond SCE and
PG&E. Prior to the Environmental Quality Policy Committee and General Resolutions
Committee meeting at Annual Conference, League staff will provide additional background
information on the following:
o Other IOU electrical power outage compensation programs.
o Municipal utility electrical power outage compensation programs.
o Role of the California Public Utilities Commission.
Existing League Policy:
In response to the energy crisis of 2001, the League of California Cities established extensive policy and
guiding principles related to the electric industry. However, there is no existing policy that pertains to
prolonged power outages or compensating customers for damages incurred during a prolonged power
outage.

RE: LETTER IN SUPPORT OF A RESOLUTION OF THE LEAGUE OF CALIFORNIA CITIES
SUPPORTING SB 593 (MCGUIRE)
Dear President Aguilar:
The Town of Mammoth Lakes supports the proposed resolution related to the Sharing Economy
and concurs in the submission of the resolution for consideration by the League of Cities
General Assembly at its annual meeting on October 2, 2015. The Town of Mammoth Lakes is a
small, rural community in the Eastern Sierra Region of about 8,000 full-time residents
Mammoth Lakes is a tourist destination, servicing hundreds of thousands of visitors each year.
We are geographically isolated from populated areas by several hundred miles and are
supported by our one primary industry — tourism.
The League’s proposed resolution reaffirms and acknowledges local efforts to effectively
regulate land use impacts and collect applicable taxes from transient residential rentals as part
of the emerging “shared economy”.
The short-term rental of residential houses, rooms, condominiums, and apartments present
numerous challenges within neighborhoods and to adjacent property owners. They may create
additional noise, traffic, parking, privacy and public safety issues, subvert local rent-control laws,
and decrease available housing stock. In Mammoth Lakes, with a limited police force that is not
staffed 24-hours a day and a code enforcement staff of one, enforcement of these types of
issues can be very challenging.
Where the temporary rental of residential units is allowed by local regulation, the associated
transient occupancy tax (TOT) should also be collected. These units are in direct competition
with hotels, motels and other accommodations where guests pay the local transient occupancy
tax, so all transient rentals should be subject to the same tax. The revenues generated support
local services, including but not limited to, public safety, snow removal, maintenance of public
parks and facilities, road maintenance, and recreation programs, which directly affect local
quality of life and the attraction of the community for a visitor.
This proposal will make it much easier for communities such as Mammoth Lakes that depend
on revenue from TOT to enforce existing rules and regulations and collect TOT as specified in
our Municipal Code. Mammoth Lakes relies heavily on TOT collection to operate the Town
government; nearly 65% of the Town’s operating budget is funded by the collection of TOT.
36
Collection of TOT is so important to the Town that we have three full-time employees dedicated
its enforcement. This includes making sure that people remit their taxes on time, but more
importantly it is tracking down violators who are renting their units without an approved permit,
renting units in locations where the zoning does not permit it, and/or not remitting their taxes to
the Town. Enforcement is made much more difficult by the use of online vacation rental
business (OVRB) websites where unit numbers and addresses are typically not listed and often
owners do not require the payment of TOT. The data proposed to be collected and provided to
us by OVRBs will be of great value as we manage transient rentals in our community.
The Town of Mammoth Lakes believes SB 593, as referenced in the proposed resolution,
acknowledges existing local authority in this area and provides the necessary data for local
jurisdictions to enforce their regulations regarding short-term residential rentals and a helpful
regulatory framework that local governments may choose in lieu of exercising their existing
authority
For all of these reasons, the Town of Mammoth Lakes supports the League California Cities’
Re~olution.

Dear President Aguilar:
RE: A RESOLUTION OF THE LEAGUE OF CALIFORNIA CITIES SUPPORTING SB 593 (MCGUIRE)
AND CONTINUED LOCAL FLEXIBILITY FOR CITIES AS THEY ADDRESS NEIGHBORHOOD AND
FISCAL IMPACTS OF TEMPORARY RENTALS OF RESIDENTIAL UNITS FOR TOURIST OR
TRANSIENT USES
The City of Napa supports the proposed resolution related to the Sharing Economy and concurs in the
submission of the resolution for consideration by the League of Cities General Assembly at its annual
meeting on October 2, 2015.
The resolution reaffirms and acknowledges local efforts to effectively regulate land use impacts and
collect applicable taxes from transient residential rentals as part of the emerging “shared economy”.
The short-term rental of residential houses, rooms, condominiums, and apartments present numerous
challenges within neighborhoods and to adjacent property owners. They may create additional noise,
traffic, parking, privacy and public safety issues, subvert local rent-control laws, decrease available
housing stock and in some cases turn residential neighborhoods into de-facto hotel rows.
The City of Napa’s zoning ordinance defines a “Rental Housing Shortage” as a vacancy rate less than
5%. A vacancy rate of less than 2% is defined as “Severe”. We are currently at severe levels. The City’s
vacancy rates have continued to decline from 4% in 2009 to less than 2% today. Our Housing Element
recognizes the issue of rising housing costs in Napa and its impact on the goal of maintaining Napa’s
quality of life by balancing the availability of housing with other environmental considerations. Maintaining
and protecting our housing stock is of utmost importance to the City of Napa.
Where the temporary rental of residential units is allowed by local regulation, the associated transient
occupancy tax (TOT) should also be collected. These units are in direct competition with hotels, motels
and other accommodations where guests pay the local transient occupancy tax, so all such uses should
be subject to the same tax. The revenues generated support local streets, roads, fire, police, lifeguards,
trash pick-up, park maintenance and other local public services which directly affect local quality of life
and the attraction of the community for a visitor.
The City of Napa believes SB 593, as referenced in the proposed resolution, acknowledges existing local
authority in this area and provides the necessary data for local jurisdictions to enforce their regulations

The City of Sonoma supports the proposed resolution related to the Sharing Economy and

existing local authority in this area and provides the necessary data for local jurisdictions to
enforce their regulations regarding short-term residential rentals and a helpful regulatory
framework that local governments may choose in lieu of exercising their existing authority.
The City of Sonoma is a tourist destination and the proliferation of vacation rentals is a top
priority for City staff. The workload in monitoring and attempting to ensure compliance with local
45
regulations is over-burdening our small staff. In addition, the sale of available housing has
become a market for out of town investors to purchase and create new vacation rentals.
Without legislative intervention, vacation rentals become an epidemic in a desirable destination
location and the local residents “pay the price”.
For these reasons, the City of Sonoma supports the League’s Resolution.
Sincerely,
Carol E. Giovanatto
City Manager

Dear President Aguilar:
The City of Hermosa Beach supports the City of Rancho Palos Verdes’ effort to submit a resolution for
consideration by the General Assembly at the League’s 2015 Annual Conference in San José.
The City of Rancho Palos Verdes’ resolution seeks to address the failure of Southern California
Edison (SCE) to reasonably compensate its customers for losses incurred due to prolonged service
disruptions. Prolonged electrical outages jeopardize the public safety, health and general welfare of
the communities within SCE’s service area. Among the populations that are most at risk as a result of
outages are:
 Customers with physical challenges who rely on a constant source of power for medical devices;
 Customers who are senior citizens and are particularly susceptible to injury if power outages
persist for long periods of time into evening hours; and,
 Customers who suffer financial burdens as a result of losing food, medication and other perishable
items during prolonged power outages.
At least one other California utility, Pacific Gas and Electric (PG&E), provides automatic, direct
rebates to its customers in the event of prolonged power outages for a variety of causes, including
severe weather and other planned and unplanned outages. Rebates are provided automatically to
PG&E’s customers without filing a claim, which we believe demonstrates that such a program is
feasible for SCE as well.
As a member of the League, our city values the policy development opportunity provided by the
Annual Conference Resolution process. We appreciate your time and consideration of this important
issue. Please feel free to contact Andrew Brozyna at (310) 318-0238 or abrozyna@hermosabch.org if
you have any questions.
Sincerely,
Tom Bakaly
City Manager

    ADMINISTRATIVE REPORT MEETING DATE:9/2/2015 Consent - Ordinances c. TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council FROM: Virginia Gennaro, City Attorney DATE: 8/13/2015 WARD: SUBJECT: Adoption of the following Ordinances amending various sections of the Municipal Code: Amending Section 2.04.080 relating to City Council Consent Calendar Agenda Items. 1. Amending Section 5.50.100 relating to Advertising on Taxicabs.2. Amending Section 8.27.010 relating to Maintenance of property.3. Adding Chapter 15.56 relating to Expedited Permitting Procedures for Small Residential Rooftop Solar Systems. 4. Amending Section 16.32.060 relating to Tract Map Improvements. 5. Amending Section 17.60.070 relating to Specialized Signs.6. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends adoption of the proposed ordinance amendments. BACKGROUND: Periodically, various Departments throughout the City request changes to the Bakersfield Municipal Code which are minor in nature. Generally, the changes are being sought to make a section read better or to reflect current practice or correct typographical errors, or to comply with new rules and regulations. While a code clean-up was done a few months ago, a few other minor changes to the Municipal Code have since been identified, and one change in particular is required to be made by September 30, 2015, due to changes in State Law. The following is a list of ordinance changes that are being recommended by Staff: 1. BMC Section 2.04.080. This amendment removes the provision that audio tapes of Council meetings be preserved in perpetuity. The City Council approved retention schedule for the City Clerk contains a generous retention period of 5 years. 2. BMC Section 5.50.100. This amendment clarifies that advertising in and on taxis must be in accordance with Bakersfield Municipal Code section 17.60.090, which governs allowable signs on all vehicles including taxicabs.
  • 62.
    3. BMC Chapter8.27.010. This amendment clarifies Code Enforcement’s authority to abate the public nuisance of accumulation of junk, trash, or debris that is visible to the public. This amendment is necessary to allow Code Enforcement to exercise their authority in areas that are not necessarily adjacent to public streets. It also makes this section consistent with the rest of the property maintenance chapter. 4. BMC Chapter 15.56. This amendment adds a Chapter to the Municipal Code in order to be in compliance with Assembly Bill 2188, which requires the City to adopt an ordinance that creates an expedited, streamlined permitting process for small residential rooftop solar energy systems. The associated ordinance is intended to satisfy that requirement. The ordinance codifies the requirements of AB 2188, such as accepting applications electronically, directing the City’s Building Official to develop a checklist of all requirements with which small rooftop solar energy systems shall comply to be eligible for expedited review, and authorizing the Building Official to administratively approve such applications 5. BMC Section 16.32.060. This amendment deletes reference to the Northeast Bakersfield planned sewer area. The sewer improvements that were being funded by the Northeast Bakersfield planned sewer area have been completed and fully paid for by collected assessments. As such, there is no longer a need for this planned sewer area. 6. BMC Section 17.60.070. This amendment changes the allowable time for erecting political election signs from sixty to ninety days before an election to be consistent with State law. The amendments had first reading on August 12, 2015.

  • 80.
    BACKGROUND: In 2008, theState of California approved legislation that enabled cities and counties to create Property Assessed Clean Energy (PACE) Programs to provide a mechanism for property owners to fund energy efficiency, water efficiency and other renewable energy projects, utilizing their property as collateral. The legislation authorized the creation of assessment districts, whereby commercial and residential property owners could finance the upfront capital costs of these projects and repay the amount financed through a contractual assessment on their property. In most cases, the contractual assessments are recorded as a lien against the subject property, entered in the County roll and collected through the property owner's property tax bill at the same time and in the same manner as traditional property assessments. The concept is that the assessments that repay the efficiency project loan amount, plus any applicable interest, run with the property until the repayment term expires. In response to this movement, some cities and counties began to set up, administer and fund local PACE programs. At the same time, several statewide PACE programs were being developed to provide cities and counties a turnkey PACE option that did not place administrative of financial liability burdens on the cities that participated in them. In 2010, the City of Bakersfield and the County of Kern joined a large number of other cities and counties throughout California in approving participation in the CaliforniaFIRST PACE program. This program is sponsored by California Statewide Communities Development Authority (California Communities), a Joint Powers Authority established by the League of California Cities and the California Association of Counties. Again, this was done in an effort to provide City residents and businesses with the opportunity to access a statewide PACE financing program. Since that time, the City has expanded the number of PACE program options available to City residents and businesses. With the growth and utilization of PACE programs, additional PACE programs have been established in a similar fashion as CaliforniaFIRST, that is they are statewide programs that provide PACE financing totally independent of the City. All that is needed for City residents to access these programs is the approval of the programs to operate in the City of Bakersfield, which is done through a resolution. Below are the current PACE program providers, and the Joint Powers Authorities that have established them, which have been authorized to operate in the City of Bakersfield: 2010 - CaliforniaFIRST - sponsored by California Statewide Communities Development Authority 2013 - Figtree - sponsored by California Enterprise Development Authority 2014 - HERO PACE Program - sponsored by Western Riverside Council of Governments The action before the Council under this item is to further expand the PACE program providers operating in the City of Bakersfield to include the following programs: Ygrene Works for California PACE Program: the Ygrene PACE program is sponsored by the California Home Finance Authority (CHFA in the process of formally changing its name to Golden State Finance Authority), a Joint Powers Authority established in 1993. CHFA has established two PACE financing programs for residential, commercial, industrial and agricultural properties, under the legislative authority of two separate California PACE laws, to address high up-front costs for property owners who wish to improve their properties through installation of measures that will generate renewable energy or reduced energy and water use.
  • 81.
    SB 555 PACECommunity Facilities District: SB 555 amended the Mello-Roos Community Facilities Act to allow for the creation of Community Facilities Districts for the purpose of financing or refinancing the acquisition, installation, and improvement of energy efficiency, water conservation, renewable energy and electric vehicle charging infrastructure improvements permanently affixed to private or publicly-owned real property. AB 811 PACE Contractual Assessment Program: Similar to most other PACE programs, the passage of AB 811 authorized cities and counties to establish voluntary contractual assessment programs for the purpose of financing private property improvements that promote renewable energy generation, energy and water efficiency and electric vehicle charging infrastructure. The two resolutions before the Council authorize the Ygrene PACE program to operate in the City of Bakersfield under each form discussed above. In addition, each resolution approves the City's associate membership in the CHFA Joint Powers Authority. The City's associate membership in CHFA does not subject the City to any potential liability or responsibility related to CHFA. In addition, the third item included for action by Council is an Indemnification and Insurance Agreement with Ygrene designed to provide further protection for the City. These protections are consistent with the provisions of approval for the City's existing PACE programs. Energy Efficient Equity (E3) and PACE Funding Program: the E3 PACE program is sponsored by the California Municipal Finance Authority (CMFA), a Joint Powers Authority formed in 2004. The City of Bakersfield is a current member of CMFA so the resolution approving the CMFA PACE program in the City of Bakersfield does not require joining CMFA as an associate member. Instead, all that is necessary is approval of a resolution allowing the E3 PACE program to be offered in the City. Staff is also bringing forward an Indemnification Agreement consistent with the City's approval process for other PACE programs. The CMFA PACE program operates under the authority provided in AB 811, therefore, only one resolution is necessary. Conclusion: the approval of the resolutions and agreements included in this item will expand the current number of authorized PACE programs in the City of Bakersfield from three (3) to a total of five (5). While these programs are structured in very similar ways, each has some unique aspects which they promote to differentiate themselves, such as differing interest rates and/or terms. Staff views the addition of these PACE programs as providing additional consumer choice for residents of Bakersfield who may choose to utilize PACE financing opportunities.

    The Computer ForensicsUnit (CFU) in the Police Department is primarily responsible for the analysis of digital evidence seized from crime scenes or suspect(s) ; as it relates to computers, cell phones, tablets, video surveillance and any other devices capable of holding electronic data. The CFU is required to respond to crime scenes to secure and seize evidence and testify in court as subject matter experts. In addition, they are responsible for understanding criminal offenses as it relates to computer crimes, as this Unit is responsible for identifying suspect(s), digitally tracking the use of electronic devices, determining locations and uncovering criminal activity. The CFU also receives service requests from every division within the Department, including confidential requests from the Administration Division. Currently, the Unit is comprised of one (1) detective and one (1) Police Service Technician. In 2014, the CFU received over 300 forensic requests; however they were only able to conduct 152 forensic analyses. This undesirable backlog of computers and devices waiting for examination often results in the failed arrest and conviction of suspect(s). In almost every arrest a suspect(s) is found to be in possession of a cellular phone or electronic device that could possibly provide information as it relates to the crime. Failure to seize and forensically analyze this type of evidence in a timely manner could potentially lead to the failure of securing evidence and negatively affect the identification, arrest, and/or conviction of suspect(s). The forensic analysis of this type of evidence is extensive and time consuming requiring specialized training in criminal forensics, as the examiner is required to translate evidentiary information to investigators, supervisors, attorneys and jury's. With the evolution and reliance on electronic devices and the growth of criminal activity in this area, there is a critical need for this position, as the case load is expected to grow substantially. The addition of a Police Computer Forensic Examiner will assist significantly in achieving the goal of reducing crimes in our community. The new job specification was presented and approved by the Police Civil Service Board at their August 5, 2015 meeting. Attached is the new job specification. Reclassification: Police Service Technician to Police Computer Forensic Examiner The Police Department has submitted a request to the Human Resources Division to reclassify one (1) Police Service Technician position to a newly created classification of Police Computer Forensic Examiner. The Police Service Technician position under general supervision is an unarmed, non-sworn employee who assists sworn personnel in follow-up investigations; enforces parking laws, ordinances, and regulations and issues citations; directs traffic at accidents, crime, and fire scenes and special events; and conducts certain types of criminal and traffic investigations. Upon research and review of an incumbent in the position of Police Service Technician, it has been determined that the employee has been performing the following duties: “Under general supervision, processes, examines and analyzes computer hardware, software, cellular phones, digital media, electronically stored data and other computer-related evidentiary materials pertaining to law enforcement investigations. Prepares and presents reports of findings, provides expert testimony, and performs other work as required.” These duties and assignments fall outside of the scope of the representative duties of the Police Service Technician classification. Therefore, based on the above, we recommend this employee be reclassified from Police Service Technician to Police Computer Forensic Examiner because of the complex assignments that are being performed on a regular basis which require extensive knowledge, training, ability and judgment which are the primary functions of the position.

    ADMINISTRATIVE REPORT MEETING DATE:9/2/2015 CONSENT - Resolutions g. TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council FROM: Nelson K. Smith, Finance Director DATE: 8/13/2015 WARD: SUBJECT: Resolution Adopting Sewer Connection Fees Pursuant to Section 14.12.380 of the Municipal Code. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends adoption of the Resolution. BACKGROUND: The Bakersfield Municipal Code (BMC) authorizes sewer service and connection fees to be established each year by resolution. The Council established the annual user fees and charges for the 2015-16 fiscal year on June 3, 2015 by way of Resolution No. 70-15. The current Sewer Connection fee of $4,000 per single family dwelling unit has been in effect since July 1, 2010 and was established at this level by Council Resolution No. 159-06 (June 2006). The connection fees have remained at the current level for several years, most recently confirmed by Council Resolution 081-14 (June 2014). The Sewer Connection fees are a one-time fee collected at the same time building permit fees are paid. Sewer connection fees are an integral part of the Wastewater Revenue flow of funds and a major component of enterprise revenues pledged for debt service payments. Given the recent refinancing of the 2007 Wastewater Revenue Bonds staff is requesting to confirm the existing connection fee structure as a necessary component of the Wastewater Revenue program. Staff is recommending the sewer connection fees remain at its current levels; thus no increases are being proposed at this time. The sewer connection fees collected each year are used to help pay the annual debt service of the wastewater enterprise. The 2015-2016 proposed budget estimates $5 million of connection fees will be collected and applied toward the estimated $15 million of wastewater enterprise debt service. The balance of the debt service will be paid with other revenues of the wastewater enterprise, including residential and commercial user fees.

    ADMINISTRATIVE REPORT MEETING DATE:9/2/2015 Consent - Resolutions h. TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council FROM: Virginia Gennaro, City Attorney DATE: 8/20/2015 WARD: SUBJECT: Resolution vacating Resolution No. 108-12, which certified the Final Environmental Impact Report (SCH#2011021042) for the Kern River Flow and Municipal Water Program. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends adoption of the resolution. BACKGROUND: The Kern River Flow and Municipal Water Program (“Program”) is a multi-objective flow management and water supply program. The primary objective is to allow substantial quantities of water to flow in the Kern River channel to protect, increase, and enhance the City’s water supply. The source of the water for the Program would be water accruing to the City’s pre-1914 appropriative Kern River water rights, and additional unappropriated surplus Kern River water. Water flowing the in the Kern River would provide multiple benefits to the City and its residents, before the water is ultimately used to satisfy the City’s municipal water demand within its boundaries. On September 26, 2012, the City Council of the City of Bakersfield adopted Resolution 108-12, which certified the Final Environmental Impact Report SCH # 2011021042 (“Final EIR”), adopted a Statement of Facts and Findings, and adopted a Statement of Overriding Considerations for the Program. The adequacy of the Final EIR was challenged in a lawsuit entitled North Kern Water Storage, et al v. City of Bakersfield, Tulare County Superior Court Case No. VCU251748 [consolidated with Case Nos. VCU251598 and VCU251535]. On July 6, 2015, the Tulare County Superior Court issued a Judgment Granting Peremptory Writ of Mandate requiring the City to set aside its certification of the Final EIR (“Writ of Mandate”). In compliance with the Writ of Mandate, the City wishes to vacate Resolution No. 108-12. ATTACHMENTS: Description Type Resolution Vacating Resolution No. 108-12 Resolution

    ADMINISTRATIVE REPORT MEETING DATE:9/2/2015 Consent - Resolutions i. TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council FROM: Virginia Gennaro, City Attorney DATE: 8/20/2015 WARD: SUBJECT: Resolution vacating Resolution No. 029-14, which certified Final Environmental Impact Report (SCH#2008041070) and approved the 24th Street Improvement Project. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends adoption of the resolution. BACKGROUND: On February 12, 2014, the City Council approved the 24th Street Widening Project, selecting the widen-to-the-north alternative, and certified the Final Environmental Impact Report (“Final EIR”) for the project (Resolution No. 029-14). A community group, Citizens Against the 24th Street Widening Project, legally challenged the adequacy of the Final EIR and the validity of the project’s approval in Kern County Superior Court (Citizens Against the 24th Street Widening Project v. City of Bakersfield, et al, Case No. S-1500-CV-281556, KCT). After evaluating the parties’ briefs and legal argument, the court decided that the Final EIR failed to (1) adequately explain why eight alternatives initially considered for the project (i.e. depressed roadway, frontage road, widening both sides of 24th Street, etc.) were eliminated from further evaluation as project alternatives, and (2) include the cul-de-sacs that were added on the south side of 24th Street, after the Draft EIR was circulated, in the EIR’s project description. The court ordered that the City provide additional information and analysis in the EIR to cure the deficiencies identified and set aside and void its certification of the Final EIR and the Project Approval. The attached resolution vacates Resolution No. 029-14 as required by the court. Staff, with the assistance of the City’s retained consultant, will be working aggressively to cure the deficiencies outlined by the court and will bring the project back before the Council once the additional disclosure and analysis, in compliance with CEQA, is complete.

City of Bakersfield, et al, Kern County Superior Court Case No. S-1500-CV-281556, KCT; and WHEREAS, the Kern County Superior Court will be issuing a Peremptory Writ of Mandate requiring the City to set aside and void its certification of the Final EIR and the Project Approval (‘Writ of Mandate”) and ordering that City provide additional information and analysis in the environmental document that clearly discloses the reasons for selecting potentially-feasible alternatives, adequately analyzes and discusses whether or not each of the potentially-feasible alternatives satisfies at least one of the four threshold criteria under CEQA Guidelines Section 15126.6, and analyzes the additional cul-de-sacs requested by the public as a part of the project, including a description of any new impacts on visual and historic resources ; and WHEREAS, in compliance with the Writ of Mandate, City wishes to vacate and void Resolution No. 029-14.

TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council FROM: Nick Fidler, Public Works Director DATE: 7/28/2015 WARD: SUBJECT: Resolution determining that Autoscope Rack Vision Terra Video Detection Systems cannot be obtained through the usual bidding procedures because of the need to integrate said systems into existing traffic signal infrastructure and authorizing the Finance Director to dispense with bidding therefore, not to exceed $90,000 for FY 2015/16. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends adoption of Resolution. BACKGROUND: Econolite Autoscope Model 2020 Video Detection Systems are installed at 32 signal-controlled intersections within the City of Bakersfield. Each of these video detection systems are comprised of a processing unit, two to four vehicle detection cameras, power and video cabling. These video detection systems have been in use since 2002. Econolite Control Products, Inc. discontinued production of the Autoscope Model 2020 and no longer provides service or support for the 2020 unit. Econolite has replaced the Autoscope Model 2020 with the Autoscope Rack Vision Terra Video Detection System. It is more cost effective to upgrade the existing system than to replace the entire infrastructure for these 32 signal-controlled intersections. Staff proposes to replace the Autoscope 2020 processing systems over a multi-year period with the new Terra System. The Terra System is a Windows-based system and has four processing units which will allow faster response to traffic and a better fog recognition algorithm, thus facilitating better traffic flow through the City's traffic grid. The City currently has 42 signalized intersections with Terra Video Detection Systems. This purchase will enable the replacement of 6 video detection systems at various intersections within the City. Each of the systems that are being replaced consists of 4 color video detection cameras and 4 video detection modules. The existing power and video cabling as well as the camera mounts, and video isolation protection systems can all be reutilized with the new systems. This Resolution authorizes the Finance Director to dispense with bidding because of the need to integrate the purchase of six Autoscope Rack Vision Terra Video Detection Systems into the existing Autoscope system. Econolite Control Products, Inc is the sole distributor of the Autoscope Rack Vision Terra Video Detection Systems.

Area 5-79 (2200 Wible Road)2. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends adoption of the Resolutions. BACKGROUND: On August 12, 2015 the Council adopted Resolutions of Intention No. 1851 and 1852 respectively, to add the above territories to the Consolidated Maintenance District as required by Section 13.04.021 of the Municipal Code.

    PUBLIC WORKS DIRECTOR'SREPORT ADDITION OF TERRITORY, AREA 4-138 Fiscal Year 2015-2016 Addition of territory to the Consolidated Maintenance District, as shown in Exhibit "A" is generally described as the NWC of E. 9th Street and Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard and as specifically shown on Map and Assessment Diagram marked Exhibit "B," attached hereto and incorporated herein by reference as though fully set forth, as an area within the City of Bakersfield. Pursuant to the provisions of Chapter 13.04 of Title 13 of the Municipal Code of the City of Bakersfield, referred to as the Maintenance District Procedure, the Public Works Director makes and files this report and proposed assessment of and upon all parcels of property within the area for the cost of maintaining a public park and public street medians and other public street landscaping. The improvements generally include, but are not limited to, recreation and sports equipment including swings, slides, play structures and storage buildings; picnic facilities including tables, benches, barbecues, trash cans, drinking fountains and restrooms; irrigation system including water mains, sprinklers, fountains, and electrical wires, conduits and timers; plant forms including trees, shrubs, ground cover and turf; and sidewalks and walkways now existing or hereafter to be constructed or planted in and for said area and are of a public nature. The assessment includes the cost of necessary repairs, replacement, water, electricity, care, supervision and any and all other items necessary for the proper maintenance and operation thereof, and all additions and improvements thereto which may hereafter be made. For many years, public parks, public streets median and other public street landscaping improvements in the City were maintained through traditional tax revenues. After Proposition 13, in 1978, funds available for maintenance and operation of parks, street median and other street landscaping improvements were substantially reduced. At present, the City's budget does not allow for maintenance and operation of park and street landscaping improvements of the type described above. Thus, without funds for maintenance and operating costs from a source other than general tax revenues, the City does not permit new public parks, street median and other street landscaping improvements to be constructed within the City. Additional territory, as shown in Exhibit "E" is being added to the Consolidated Maintenance District for the maintenance of a park and public street median and other street landscaping. The area will be assigned appropriate park and street tiers in the Consolidated Maintenance District so that each parcel will be assessed the same amount as other parcels receiving a similar benefit. All parcels within this area shall be assessed an amount not to exceed that established in Resolution No. 019-05 per equivalent dwelling unit (as that term is defined in Exhibit “C”) per parcel. In each subsequent year, annual assessments may increase by the cost of living S:PROJECTSMAINDISTFormation DocumentsMD 4-138PW DIRECTOR'S REPORT.docx EXHIBIT 1

    reflected in theLos Angeles-Riverside-Orange County/All Urban Consumers Consumer Price Index. However, parcels will not be assessed until park and/or street landscaping have been installed. When park and/or street landscape improvements have been completed, the appropriate park and street tier levels will be assigned, but in no case shall the assessments exceed the amount established in Resolution No. 019-05 as escalated per the above described Consumer Price Index. All parcels as described in the Benefit Formula on file with the City Clerk within the area will be affected. Sensory benefits from installing street landscaping are aesthetic enhancement and open space enjoyment. A public park will benefit all the residential lots and public median and street landscaping will benefit all the lots or parcels and will be assessed on an Equivalent Dwelling Unit basis throughout the area. The Benefit Formula is set forth herein as Exhibit "C" and attached hereto and incorporated in this resolution as though fully set forth herein. NOW THEREFORE, I, NICK FIDLER, Director of Public Works of the City of Bakersfield, by virtue of the power vested in me and the order of the Council of said City, hereby submit the Fiscal Year 2015-2016 Budget and Assessment Roll as set forth in Exhibit "D" and Exhibit "E," respectively, attached hereto and incorporated herein as though fully set forth, upon all parcels of property within additional territory subject to be assessed to pay the cost of maintenance and operation in said area.

    CONSOLIDATED MAINTENANCE DISTRICT CITYOF BAKERSFIELD BENEFIT FORMULA Each parcel joining the Consolidated Maintenance District shall be assessed the amount as defined below: Rate: Shall equal the dollar amount shown per the tier level of your zone of the Consolidated Maintenance District on Attachment A “Consolidated Maintenance District Cost per Tier” as approved by City Council Resolution 019-15. As per the Resolution, “Said amounts shall be increased annually by the cost of living increase reflected in the Los Angeles–Riverside–Orange County / All Urban Consumers Consumer Price Index.” Tier levels for both Parks and Street Landscaping in the 5 zones of the Consolidated Maintenance District are established by the Recreation and Parks Department through separate policy. Multiplied by (EDU): The number of Equivalent Dwelling Units (EDU's as defined below) for the parcel. Multiplied by (Tier): The factor for the tier level, which equals the street or tier number. This tier is assigned by the Recreation and Parks Department for the entire area of the Consolidated Maintenance District. County Fee(Tier): The County of Kern Assessors Office charges a fee for each parcel added to their tax roll. Total Assessment $= ((Park Rate x Park Tier) x EDU)) + ((Street Rate x Street Tier) x EDU) + (County Fee) Note: Since Proposition 218 was passed in November 1996, assessment rates for areas formed prior to Proposition 218 have been frozen at their current rate. Areas formed between November 1996 and January 12, 2005 shall be assessed by the terms stated on their Proposition 218 ballot. On January 12, 2005 the city passed Resolution 19-05 which allowed for an escalator on the maximum assessment. Any areas formed after Proposition 218 and which have ballots which include this escalator may be increased according to their ballot terms. A parcel may be added to the City of Bakersfield Consolidated Maintenance District if any of the below conditions occurs: 1. Bakersfield Municipal code 13.04.021: “It is the policy of the city to include within a maintenance district all new developments that are subject to the Subdivision Map Act and that benefit from landscaping in the public right-of-way and/or public parks. Nothing shall preclude the city from requesting formation of a maintenance district, or joining a maintenance district, as a condition of a zone change, or general plan amendment, or conditional use permit, or during site plan review where deemed necessary by the city.” 2. Bakersfield Municipal Code 13.04.022 (A): “No final map or certificate of compliance for a parcel map waiver may be recorded absent establishment of a maintenance district to provide for all future maintenance of any landscaping in the public right-of-way and of any public park required as a condition of approval of the development project for the area covered by the final map or parcel map waiver.” 3. City staff determines this is necessary as part of: Site Plan Review Conditions, Zone Change, a General Plan Amendment, or a Conditional Use Permit. Equivalent Dwelling Units (EDU) shall be assigned using the following policy. EDU’s may also be adjusted given special conditions or agreements as necessary to adequately reflect the conditions of the site at the time of formation. Developed Parcels will be assessed by their actual units on their site as per their plans, map, or current use. Single Family Residential Parcels: 1 EDU per Parcel Mobile Home Parks: 1 EDU per Space / Lot Multifamily Residential Parcels: .71 EDU per Unit (Commercial / Industrial / Mixed Use): 6 EDU per Acre Undeveloped ground in its natural state will be assigned EDU’s based on their zoning at max theoretical density as used by the City of Bakersfield Planning Dept.

After Proposition 13, in 1978, funds available for maintenance and operation of parks, street median and other street landscaping improvements were substantially reduced. At present, the City's budget does not allow for maintenance and operation of park and street landscaping improvements of the type described above. Thus, without funds for maintenance and operating costs from a source other than general tax revenues, the City does not permit new public parks, street median and other street landscaping improvements to be constructed within the City. Additional territory, as shown in Exhibit "E" is being added to the Consolidated Maintenance District for the maintenance of a park and public street median and other street landscaping. The area will be assigned appropriate park and street tiers in the Consolidated Maintenance District so that each parcel will be assessed the same amount as other parcels receiving a similar benefit. All parcels within this area shall be assessed an amount not to exceed that established in Resolution No. 019-05 per equivalent dwelling unit (as that term is defined in Exhibit “C”) per parcel. In each subsequent year, annual assessments may increase by the cost of living reflected in the Los Angeles-Riverside-Orange County/All Urban Consumers Consumer Price Index. However, parcels will not be assessed until park and/or street landscaping have been S:PROJECTSMAINDISTFormation DocumentsMD 5-79PW DIRECTOR'S REPORT.docx EXHIBIT 1

    installed. When parkand/or street landscape improvements have been completed, the appropriate park and street tier levels will be assigned, but in no case shall the assessments exceed the amount established in Resolution No. 019-05 as escalated per the above described Consumer Price Index. All parcels as described in the Benefit Formula on file with the City Clerk within the area will be affected. Sensory benefits from installing street landscaping are aesthetic enhancement and open space enjoyment. A public park will benefit all the residential lots and public median and street landscaping will benefit all the lots or parcels and will be assessed on an Equivalent Dwelling Unit basis throughout the area. The Benefit Formula is set forth herein as Exhibit "C" and attached hereto and incorporated in this resolution as though fully set forth herein. NOW THEREFORE, I, NICK FIDLER, Director of Public Works of the City of Bakersfield, by virtue of the power vested in me and the order of the Council of said City, hereby submit the Fiscal Year 2015-2016 Budget and Assessment Roll as set forth in Exhibit "D" and Exhibit "E," respectively, attached hereto and incorporated herein as though fully set forth, upon all parcels of property within additional territory subject to be assessed to pay the cost of maintenance and operation in said area.

STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends adoption of Resolution of Intention. BACKGROUND: Rick C. and Nicole L. Douglass are the owners of Douglass Truck Bodies and own the majority of the properties adjacent to the alley east of V Street to Union Avenue between 20th Street and 21st Street. The company parks vehicles and equipment and moves equipment across the alley on a daily basis. For the safety of employees, pedestrians, and equipment, the applicants are requesting the alley be vacated. The City Fire, Police, Public Works, and Community Development Departments have been notified of the request and no objections have been received as of the date of this report. Public Works notes that there are City sewer facilities in the vacating area; therefore, a Public Utility Easement will be reserved over the vacated area. The utility companies serving the area have been notified by mail. Utilities are located in the alley to be vacated; therefore, a Public Utility Easement will be reserved over the vacated area. Preliminary notices were also mailed to all adjacent property owners within a 300-foot radius of the proposed vacating area. Public Works has received no objections from these owners as of the date of this report. The proposed vacation was approved by the Planning Department on June 17, 2015, per local ordinance and was found to be consistent with the Metropolitan Bakersfield 2010 General Plan pursuant to Government Code 65402. It was determined that this action is exempt from the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act pursuant to Section 15061 (b) (3) of CEQA guidelines (general rule), because there is no possibility that the action may have a significant effect on the environment.

As done previously for large events held at the venue, the City is proposing to enter into an agreement with Albertsons to utilize the company's vacant property located at the southwest corner of Stockdale Highway and Buena Vista Road, which is within close proximity of the venue. The utilization of the property allows AEG to facilitate the parking needs of attendees for each of these events and there is no direct cost to the City for the use of the lot. In exchange for the use of the lot, the City has agreed to provide weed control and litter removal from September 3rd through November 20, 2015. Albertsons has requested an indemnity clause be included as a term of the agreement which requires the City to defend and hold harmless Albertsons from and against any and all loss, damage, liability or claims (including, without limitation, costs and expenses of litigation and reasonable attorney' fees) arising from, or connected with the City's use of the lot on October 1st and 4th, 2015 and the City's maintenance of weed control and litter removal.

    ADMINISTRATIVE REPORT MEETING DATE:9/2/2015 Consent - Agreements q. TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council FROM: Nelson K. Smith, Finance Director DATE: 8/18/2015 WARD: SUBJECT: Amendment No. 1 to Agreement No. 14-318 with General Tree Service Incorporated ($325,000; not to exceed $650,000 and extend the term to June 30, 2016) to continue the tree trimming service. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends approval of amendment. BACKGROUND: In November 2014, bids were solicited for the annual contract for tree trimming services resulting in three bids submitted. On December 10, 2014, Council approved the annual contract for tree trimming service to the low bidder, General Tree Service, Inc., in the amount of $325,000; with the option to renew annually thereafter for four consecutive one-year periods per the terms of the agreement. Currently there is $19,000 available on this agreement. Extending the term and adding $325,000 will allow the Parks Department to continue with the scheduled maintenance and removal of dead trees. Contract activity has increased with the need to remove dead trees due to the drought conditions. The contractor has performed all services on a satisfactory level. There is no increase in the unit price to extend this agreement. This amendment aligns the expiration date with the fiscal year end; changing the term date to June 30, 2016, will assist with managing the department budget for this service. However, due to extraordinary circumstances brought on by extended drought conditions, even with closely monitoring this contract, an additional financial adjustment may need to be made prior to June 30, 2016. If approved, Amendment No. 1 will add $325,000 for a revised not to exceed amount to $650,000 and extend the term to June 30, 2016. Funds are budgeted in the Parks Department FY 2015-16 operating budget within the General Fund for this contract. Approval of the amendment will allow the City to continue to meet the demand for tree trimming services. ATTACHMENTS: Description Type Amendment 1 to AC 14-318 for Tree Trimming Service Agreement

TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council FROM: Nick Fidler, Public Works Director DATE: 8/13/2015 WARD: Ward(s) 1, 2 SUBJECT: Contract Change Order No. 27 to Agreement No. 13-140 with Security Paving Company, Inc. (decrease of $121,355.84; revised not to exceed $14,228,302.03), for the SR-58 Gap Closure Project. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends approval of contract change order. BACKGROUND: This project consists of widening State Route 58 to three lanes in each direction from State Route 99 to 0.5 miles east of Cottonwood Road. Contract Change Order No. 27 provides for an adjustment of compensation to reflect the price decrease of the asphalt binder used in the Hot Mix Asphalt (HMA) during the course of the project. Using the formulas and tables outlined in the contract documents, this adjustment of compensation will result in a net credit of ($121,355.84). The sum of all change orders to date on this project reflects a total cost increase of $74,286.03 (which results in a 0.5% increase of the original contract amount) as illustrated below: Original Contract Amount = $14,154,016.00 Amended Contract Agreement after Change Orders = $14,228,302.03 Net Increase to date = $ 74,286.03 Sufficient funds are budgeted to cover the cost of this change order.

    ADMINISTRATIVE REPORT MEETING DATE:9/2/2015 Consent - Property Acquisition Agreements - TRIP s. TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council FROM: Nelson K. Smith, Finance Director DATE: 8/4/2015 WARD: Ward 2 SUBJECT: Agreement with Victor Cotera ($277,000) to purchase real property located at 4409 Kensington Avenue for the Centennial Corridor Project. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends approval of Agreement. BACKGROUND: As part of the Thomas Road Improvement Program (TRIP), the City of Bakersfield is acquiring properties to construct the Centennial Corridor Project. The Centennial Corridor will connect the existing State Route 58 at South Real Road and State Route 99 to the Westside Parkway north of Truxtun Avenue. The property being purchased consists of a single family residence. The purchase price of $277,000 is the property’s fair market value as established by an appraisal prepared by Merriman Hurst and Associates, an independent appraisal company In addition to the purchase price the City will be paying for relocation assistance in accordance with the Uniform Relocation Assistance and Real Property Acquisition Policies Act of 1970 (Uniform Act). The Uniform Act provides important protections and assistance for people affected by Federally funded projects. All parties displaced by the TRIP projects will be provided all applicable relocation benefits pursuant to the requirements set forth in the Uniform Act. These benefits may include a purchase price differential payment, a mortgage differential payment, and the actual, reasonable and necessary costs to relocate their personal and/or business property. Every property is unique and the benefits will reflect their individual circumstances. A Phase I Environmental Site Assessment report has been prepared encompassing all properties required for the Centennial Corridor project during the State required Environmental Document process. The Planning Division completed a General Plan Review (65402) and found this acquisition consistent with the Metropolitan Bakersfield 2010 General Plan. Funding for this purchase is budgeted in the Centennial Corridor Federal Transportation Fund and is part of the $165 million authorized by CalTrans and appropriated by the City Council on March 5, 2014 for right of way acquisitions. Purchases under the early acquisition program
  • 297.
    were approved byCalTrans at 100% federal funding with no local match requirement for this phase of the project. This concept is termed by CalTrans as “toll credits”. The term “toll credit” is a little confusing, because it does not refer to a toll that might be paid for crossing a bridge. It refers to an alternate definition of the word that means “to lead or attract to a desired point”. Offering of toll credits allows the City to accelerate the spending of Federal dollars sooner and gets the project further along with less need of local dollars. As a result, the future construction phase of the Centennial project will carry a higher local match percentage than it would have without the toll credits being approved. The end result is that we will still spend the same amount of Federal and local dollars to project completion as we would have without toll credits, but using toll credits allows us to spend the Federal money first and the local dollars later. The Centennial Corridor Project has 199 single family residential properties. This is the 121st of the 199 single family residential properties to be acquired. Information on the progress of the right of way phase of each TRIP project and the costs associated therewith will be contained in a periodic report.

BACKGROUND: As part of the Thomas Road Improvement Program (TRIP), the City of Bakersfield is acquiring properties to construct the Centennial Corridor Project. The Centennial Corridor will connect the existing State Route 58 at South Real Road and State Route 99 to the Westside Parkway north of Truxtun Avenue. This is the third multi-family zoned property to be acquired. The property is owned by Landeron LLC which operates the two duplex apartment units. The purchase price of $438,300 is product of negotiations based on appraisals by Merriman Hurst & Associates and Michael Burger & Associates. In addition to the purchase price the City will be paying for each occupied apartment tenant’s relocation assistance in accordance with the Uniform Relocation Assistance and Real Property Acquisition Policies Act of 1970 (Uniform Act). The Uniform Act provides important protections and assistance for parties affected by Federally funded projects. All parties displaced by the TRIP projects will be provided all applicable relocation benefits pursuant to the requirements set forth in the Uniform Act. These benefits may include a rent differential payment, and the actual, reasonable and necessary costs to relocate their personal property. Every property is unique and the benefits will reflect their individual circumstances. A Phase I Environmental Site Assessment report has been prepared encompassing all properties required for the Centennial Corridor project during the State required Environmental Document process. The Planning Division completed a General Plan Review (65402) and found this acquisition consistent with the Metropolitan Bakersfield 2010 General Plan. Funding for this purchase is budgeted in the Centennial Corridor Federal Transportation Fund and is part of the $165 million authorized by CalTrans and appropriated by the City Council on March 5, 2014 for right of way acquisitions. Purchases under the early acquisition program were approved by CalTrans at 100% federal funding with no local match requirement for this
  • 337.
    phase of theproject. This concept is termed by CalTrans as “toll credits”. The term “toll credit” is a little confusing, because it does not refer to a toll that might be paid for crossing a bridge. It refers to an alternate definition of the word that means “to lead or attract to a desired point”. Offering of toll credits allows the City to accelerate the spending of Federal dollars sooner and gets the project further along with less need of local dollars. As a result, the future construction phase of the Centennial project will carry a higher local match percentage than it would have without the toll credits being approved. The end result is that we will still spend the same amount of Federal and local dollars to project completion as we would have without toll credits, but using toll credits allows us to spend the Federal money first and the local dollars later. The Centennial Corridor Project has 12 full acquisition multi-family properties to acquire. This is the 3rd of the multi-family properties to be acquired. Information on the progress of the right of way phase of each TRIP project and the costs associated therewith is contained in a periodic report.

STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends acceptance of bid and approval of contract. BACKGROUND: Bids were solicited for an Annual Contract for concrete construction. Three bids were received in response to solicitation. The bids solicited were based on a list of concrete services with estimated quantities. In this case, where the City does not intend to split the bid award, the City determines the lowest overall bidder by multiplying the supplier’s unit price for each of the items by the estimated number of units for each item. The contract is on-call, as-needed used by multiple departments of the City including Water Resources, Recreation and Parks and Public Works. Staff anticipates utilizing this contract for the following projects; repairs at bus stops to improve ADA requirements, curb, gutter and sidewalk at Sports Village (Phase 3) and Mesa Marin parking lot. In addition, the contract will provide for routine maintenance and repair of curb, gutter, and sidewalk and block wall damage by vehicles. Sufficient funds are available to cover the costs associated with this greement. Multiple funding sources may be used for work under this contract including General Funds, Capital Outlay Funds, Park Improvement Funds, Refuse Funds, Wastewater Funds and Agricultural Water Funds. The contract award is for a one year period; renewable annually for four consecutive one-year periods at the City’s option and upon mutually agreeable terms. The three bids received are listed below.

Smith, Finance Director DATE: 8/20/2015 WARD: Ward(s) 1, 2, 4, 5, 7 SUBJECT: Accept bid and approve contract with Robertson Industries, Inc. ($136,466), for replacement playground rubberized surfacing at various parks. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends acceptance of bid and approval of contract. BACKGROUND: As part of the Fiscal Year 2014-15 Capital Improvement Program, the City Council approved a project to replace rubberized surfaces at various City parks. City parks have rubberized surfacing as a safety requirement under playground structures. This surface deteriorates over time due to weather conditions and general use. To maintain compliance with public playground safety requirements, several parks are in need of partial or complete rubberized surfacing replacement. Bids were solicited for replacement playground rubberized surfacing at various parks. Two bids were received in response to the solicitation. The bid specifications identified parks in immediate need of repair and grouped them as a base bid. The base bid included The Park at River Walk, Pin Oak Park, Quailwood Park, Planz Park, Dr. Martin Luther King Park and Jastro Park. The award is based on the base bid amount. An “additive alternate” option was included in the bid package for repairs at additional park locations based on budgeted funding available for this work. Funds are available to include additional repairs at the following “additive alternate” park sites; Windsor Park, Central Park, Campus Park South, Granite Pointe Park, Centennial Park and Jefferson Park. Parks staff has since determined that the Amtrak and Wayside Park sites are in need of full playground replacement, thus it would be more cost effective to replace the rubberized surface at these two locations when the playground replacement occurs in the future. A spreadsheet showing complete analysis is attached. Funds are budgeted in the Park Improvement Fund for this project. There is General Fund impact associated with this contract. The two bids received are as follows:

    ADMINISTRATIVE REPORT MEETING DATE:9/2/2015 Consent - Miscellaneous ab. TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council FROM: Greg Williamson, Police Chief DATE: 8/13/2015 WARD: SUBJECT: Appropriate $8,640 contributions from the Bakersfield Foundation to the Police Department Operating Budget within the General Fund to offset the costs of the purchase of a Police Canine. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends approval of the appropriation. BACKGROUND: The Bakersfield Police Department K-9 Unit was established in 1988. The Unit is an important operational component of the Police Department. Over the past 27 years, the Unit has been responsible for thousands of arrests and the confiscation of significant amounts of marijuana, methamphetamine, cocaine, and heroin. The police K-9, due to its strength, agility, courage, and keen sense of smell are utilized to assist law enforcement in various tasks and situations. Because of these attributes, police service dogs can be utilized to assist in searching for potentially violent criminals and aid in the apprehension of fleeing criminals who may place innocent community members or other police officers at risk of injury. In potentially dangerous situations, the police K-9 can often assume the risk by preventing exposure of a police officer to a violent confrontation. The police K-9 are highly trained to detect the presence of narcotics. The dogs also offer the department an effective public relations tool to disseminate information about the police department's mission, functions, and crime fighting efforts. As police service dogs age, there comes a point in time when they are no longer able to perform to the Department's standards. When this time comes, the dog is retired to its handler’s home and the handler is allowed to purchase the animal. On August 1, 2015, BPD K -9 Patrol service dog Carson was retired into his handler's care, creating the need to purchase a replacement canine for the department. After completing a comprehensive evaluation process and cost analysis, a new dog has been selected to replace Carson. The purchase price of the new dog is $8,640. The canine will be funded through a generous contribution to the Bakersfield Foundation from Jack and Carol Craig of Bakersfield. There is no impact to the General Fund associated with this action.

    The proposed actionwill appropriate the donated funds to the Police Department operating budget for the purchase of the canine.

    ADMINISTRATIVE REPORT MEETING DATE:9/2/2015 Consent - Miscellaneous ac. TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council FROM: Douglas N. McIsaac, Community Development Director DATE: 8/11/2015 WARD: SUBJECT: Appropriate $50,000 State Grant Revenue for the Waste Tire Enforcement Grant Program to the Community Development Department Operating Budget in the General Fund. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends approval of appropriation. BACKGROUND: The City has received a $50,000 grant from the California Department of Resources, Recycling and Recovery for waste tire enforcement. The grant will offset funding for Code Enforcement staff time directly related to the development, monitoring and implementation of a program to educate tire dealers and auto dismantlers of their responsibilities as waste tire generators and reduce the illegal disposal of waste tires. The California Department of Resources, Recycling and Recovery, over the past grant cycles have reimbursed the City over $242,000 through the Tire Enforcement Grant Program. In that time, Code Enforcement staff has conducted 1,659 inspections of waste tire generators and identified over 826 piles of illegally-dumped tires within the City’s jurisdiction. Over 10,000 illegally-dumped tires have been abated by private property owners, Code Enforcement or through other CalRecycle Grant programs. Code Enforcement has referred five cases to the District Attorney’s Office for prosecution of tire related-violations of State law. Code Enforcement staff has spent 965 hours patrolling the City for tire-related activities, conducted 819 hours of surveillance and received over 262 hours in training from the California Department of Resources, Recycling and Recovery. Staff is recommending the appropriation.

    ADMINISTRATIVE REPORT MEETING DATE:9/2/2015 Consent - Successor Agency Business ad. TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council FROM: Virginia Gennaro, City Attorney DATE: 8/20/2015 WARD: SUBJECT: Settlement Agreement and Mutual Release between the Successor Agency and the Kern Community College District regarding AB 1290 Pass-Through Underpayments of the former Bakersfield Redevelopment Agency. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends approval of the Settlement Agreement and Mutual Release. BACKGROUND: Prior to the dissolution of the former Bakersfield Redevelopment Agency (BRDA) on February 1, 2012, AB 1290 pass-through payments were calculated and paid by the Kern County Auditor-Controller-County Clerk (KCAC) on behalf of the BRDA to the various school districts and taxing entities within the former Bakersfield Redevelopment Project Areas. The State redevelopment dissolution law requires that the KCAC calculate and distribute future AB1290 pass-through payments to the school districts and taxing entities. In 2013, the California Court of Appeals (Fourth Circuit) ruled in the Los Angeles Unified School District v. County of Los Angeles et. al. case that the Los Angeles school districts were entitled to AB-1290 pass-throughs based on a post-Education Revenue Augmentation Fund (ERAF) basis. This meant that Los Angeles County and the other taxing entities within Los Angeles County, including several of the dissolved redevelopment agencies, owed underpayments of the AB-1290 pass through payments to the various Los Angeles County school districts. The Los Angeles School District case was not appealed and so it remains the current law in effect. Other counties started to follow the Los Angeles School District case in terms of calculating their AB 1290 pass-through payments due to the school districts. On April 15, 2015, the KCAC notified the Successor Agency to the dissolved BRDA (“Successor Agency”) of the KCAC’s calculations of the AB 1290 pass through underpayments based on the Los Angeles Court Decision by a letter, which is attached to this administrative report. Subsequently, the KCCD agreed to adopt the KCAC’s figures for their claim and demanded that the Successor Agency add underpayments of AB 1290 pass-through for the KCCD as enforceable obligations to the next ROPS in the amount of Seventy-Four Thousand Twenty Dollars and 66/100 ($74,020.66).
  • 381.
    Approval of theSettlement Agreement and Mutual Release will not affect the City of Bakersfield’s general fund. In addition, placing the AB 1290 underpayments on the next ROPS will not jeopardize the existing Successor Agency’s enforceable obligations because those obligations would still be able to be completely funded on future ROPS. Finally, existing enforceable obligations also take priority over AB 1290 pass through obligations. If the Successor Agency approves the Settlement Agreement and Mutual Release, staff will forward the Settlement Agreement and Mutual Release to the Oversight Board to the Successor Agency and the State Department of Finance for their approval and staff will also add the AB 1290 underpayments on the next ROPS.

    ADMINISTRATIVE REPORT MEETING DATE:9/2/2015 Hearings 10. a. TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council FROM: Douglas N. McIsaac, Community Development Director DATE: 7/9/2015 WARD: SUBJECT: U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) Action Plan Amendments: FY 2010-11 Amendment No. 12 - Create Neighborhood Stabilization Program (NSP) Housing Acquisition and Preservation Program with $141,352 Program Income, and appropriate $141,352 to the NSP operating budget; 1. FY 2011-12 Amendment No. 4 - Increase Fire Station 1 Improvements Project $20,000 Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) project savings and change project scope; 2. FY 2014-15 Amendment No. 5a - Transfer $250,000 HOME Investment Partnerships (HOME) Program from New Construction Assistance Program to Housing Urban Bakersfield Downpayment Assistance; 3. FY 2014-15 Amendment No. 5b - Create Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Park and Community Center Lighting Improvements Project with $130,000 project savings; 4. Appropriate $2,685 to the CDBG Operating Budget.5. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends approval of the amendments and appropriations. BACKGROUND: The City receives funding from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) annually through the submission of an Action Plan, which describes all HUD-funded projects and activities for a particular fiscal year. HUD allows significant changes to the Action Plan through a Substantial Amendment. City staff recommends Substantial Amendments for the HUD-funded activities below. Neighborhood Stabilization Program (NSP) Housing Acquisition and Preservation In FY 2010-11, the City received federal stimulus funds to mitigate issues related to abandoned, vacant, or foreclosed residential properties. The City has expended its original allocation of NSP funds; however, over time the program has generated $141,352 in NSP program income (loan proceeds) that must be used for future NSP-eligible activities. This Substantial Amendment creates a NSP Downpayment Assistance Program funded
  • 391.
    with $141,352 inprogram income for the purchase of vacant, abandoned, or foreclosed properties in NSP-eligible areas by households earning 120 percent of the area median income or less. Fire Station 1 Improvements In FY 2011-12, the City Council approved $120,000 in Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds to paint the exterior and replace the windows at Fire Station 1. Although the City completed the painting activities, the environmental review process determined the windows were historic in nature; consequently, replacing the windows according to the historic preservation guidelines was infeasible. At this moment, Fire Station 1 requires rehabilitation to a sewer line in the vehicle bay area that has caused subsidence and cracking in the concrete floor. In addition, the adjacent workstation has been deteriorating over time, including the associated electrical and plumbing. This Substantial Amendment revises the program description to include rehabilitating the damaged sewer line in the vehicle bay area; replacing a portion of concrete in the vehicle bay area; and replacing the adjacent workstation, including the plumbing and electrical. To ensure sufficient funds are available to complete the project, City staff proposes allocating an additional $20,000 in project savings. Housing Urban Bakersfield – Downpayment Assistance Program In FY 2014-15, the City Council approved $250,000 in HOME Investment Partnerships (HOME) funds for the Housing Urban Bakersfield – Downpayment Assistance Program. Due to the success of the program, City staff has expended these funds on downpayment assistance in the former redevelopment project areas, Creekview Villas, and Parkview Cottages. This Substantial Amendment transfers $250,000 in HOME funds from the New Construction Assistance Program to the Downpayment Assistance Program to cover the projected need for downpayment assistance at Creekview Villas and Parkview Cottages. Please note that $1.7 million remains available for unobligated new affordable housing construction activities. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. (MLK) Park and Community Center Lighting Improvement Project In FY 2014-15, the highest rated CDBG application by City staff that did not receive funding was the MLK Park and Community Center Lighting Improvement Project. This park is severely under lit, which causes safety concerns for residents during the evenings. Also, the existing lighting uses more electricity while producing inadequate illumination compared to newer technologies. This Substantial Amendment reprograms $130,000 in project savings to the MLK Park and Community Center Lighting Improvement Project. The project includes replacing some of the existing exterior lighting with new LED fixtures and associated electrical improvements. City staff anticipates the project will increase public safety at the park and reduce energy costs and consumption. CDBG Operating Budget Appropriation Also, City staff recommends the appropriation of $2,685 to the CDBG Operating Budget. This is to account for differences between projected and actual grant amounts. Attached you will find a summary of the proposed Substantial Amendments. A 30-day public hearing notice was published on July 31, 2015. No comments have been received to date. ATTACHMENTS: Description Type Summary of Action Plan Amendment Backup Material

    ADMINISTRATIVE REPORT MEETING DATE:9/2/2015 New Business 13. a. TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council FROM: Alan Tandy, City Manager DATE: 7/10/2015 WARD: SUBJECT: League of California Cities Annual Conference appointment of voting delegate(s) and City Position on Conference Resolution(s). STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends Council appoint a voting delegate and alternate delegate(s) and adopt staff recommended positions on the League proposed resolutions. BACKGROUND: The League of California Cities Annual Conference is scheduled for September 30th - October 2nd, 2015 in San Jose. The annual business meeting, during which proposed League resolutions will be considered, is scheduled for 12:00 p.m. on Friday, October 2nd, at the San Jose Convention Center. Currently, there are four (4) Councilmembers scheduled to attend the League Annual Conference, including Councilmembers Weir, Sullivan, Smith and Rivera.

In addition, the League has provided information on four (4) proposed resolutions that will be considered during the annual business meeting. A brief summary of the proposed resolutions along with a staff recommended position for each is provided below. Additional information regarding the designation of a voting delegate and the annual resolutions packet of information is attached to this administrative report. Resolution #1 - Resolution relating to League bylaws amendments regarding succession of League offices to fill vacancies. Summary: This resolution seeks to streamline the process when filling a vacancy for the office of President of the Board of Directors. It would allow for the League bylaws to be amended, allowing the Immediate Past President to fill an unexpected vacancy in the office of President for the remainder of the vacating President's term. Changes to League bylaws require a 2/3rds vote of the General Assembly. Staff Recommendation: Support
  • 394.
    Resolution #2 -Resolution of the League of California Cites calling for legislation to preserve therapeutic environments for group homes and avoid impacts of overconcentration of alcohol and drug abuse recovery and treatment facilities in residential neighborhoods. Summary: This resolution calls for the Governor and the Legislature to work with the League and other stakeholders to explore options to address overconcentration of alcohol and drug abuse recovery and treatment facilities in residential neighborhoods while respecting important legal rights of patients and legal obligations of public entities, avoid the creation of institutional settings when multiple facilities are concentrated in a single location, and determine the appropriate balance between not-for-profit (including county) facilities and for-profit facilities in residential neighborhoods. Staff Recommendation: Support Resolution #3 - Resolution of the League of California Cities supporting SB 593 (McGuire) and continued local flexibility for cities as they address neighborhood and fiscal impacts of temporary rentals of residential units. Summary: This resolution seeks to highlight and increase support for SB 593 (McGuire), which is pending in the Legislature. SB 593, titled the Thriving Communities and Sharing Economy Act, seeks to bolster local efforts to regulate and collect transient occupancy taxes from the temporary rental of residential houses, condominiums, and apartments for tourists and transient use. The League is currently in support of this legislation. Staff Recommendation: Neutral Resolution #4 - Resolution calling upon the Governor and the Legislature to work with the League of California Cities to enact legislation or to otherwise compel Southern California Edison to create a program to automatically provide direct compensation to its customers affected by prolonged electrical power outages under specified circumstances. Summary: The proposed resolution calls upon the Governor and Legislature to enact legislation (or take other action) that will provide rebates in flat amounts to SCE customers for extended power outages under specified conditions.

    GUIDELINES FOR ANNUALCONFERENCE RESOLUTIONS Policy development is a vital and ongoing process within the League. The principal means for deciding policy on the important issues facing cities is through the League’s eight standing policy committees and the board of directors. The process allows for timely consideration of issues in a changing environment and assures city officials the opportunity to both initiate and influence policy decisions. Annual conference resolutions constitute an additional way to develop League policy. Resolutions should adhere to the following criteria. Guidelines for Annual Conference Resolutions 1. Only issues that have a direct bearing on municipal affairs should be considered or adopted at the Annual Conference. 2. The issue is not of a purely local or regional concern. 3. The recommended policy should not simply restate existing League policy. 4. The resolution should be directed at achieving one of the following objectives: (a) Focus public or media attention on an issue of major importance to cities. (b) Establish a new direction for League policy by establishing general principals around which more detailed policies may be developed by policy committees and the board of directors. (c) Consider important issues not adequately addressed by the policy committees and board of directors. (d) Amend the League bylaws (requires 2/3 vote at General Assembly). 2

    2015 ANNUAL CONFERENCERESOLUTIONS RESOLUTION REFERRED TO ADMINISTRATIVE SERVICES POLICY COMMITTEE 1. RESOLUTION RELATING TO LEAGUE BYLAWS AMENDMENTS REGARDING SUCCESSION OF LEAGUE OFFICES TO FILL VACANCIES Source: League Board of Directors Referred to: Administrative Services Policy Committee Recommendation to General Resolutions Committee: WHEREAS, the League of California Cities® is a nonprofit mutual benefit corporation under California law and, as such, is governed by corporate bylaws; and WHEREAS, the League’s Board of Directors periodically reviews the League’s bylaws for issues of clarity, practicality, compliance with current laws, and responsiveness to membership interests; and WHEREAS, on two occasions in recent years when vacancies arose in office of President of the Board of Directors after disappointing reelection results, the vacancy was filled in accordance with the League Bylaws by the First Vice President becoming President at the next Board meeting. This left a vacancy in the office of First Vice President that was filled by the Board by advancing the Second Vice President. This required recruiting a new Second Vice President that the Board chose, as provided in the Bylaws, from the ranks of the Board itself; and WHEREAS, in September 2014 the Board chose a new Second Vice President as usual and also a new First Vice President who had not previously served as Second Vice President because the prior Second Vice President was elected to county office and was no longer eligible. When the President was not reelected in November 2014, the First Vice President advanced to the office of President with only two months of experience as a League officer. Additionally, the Second Vice President was advanced to First Vice President; and WHEREAS, the Board of Directors believe this confluence of events twice in recent years demonstrates a weakness in the succession of League offices required by the League Bylaws because the accelerated advancement of officers in the event of a vacancy in the office of President may deprive the junior officers and the League of adequate time to serve and develop expertise and relationships in the offices of Second and First Vice President; and WHEREAS, it is the unanimous recommendation of the League Board that the League membership amend article VIII, section 4, of the League bylaws to allow the Immediate Past President to fill an unexpected vacancy in the office of President for the unexpired term if the Immediate Past President agrees. If not, the current succession process would occur; and now, therefore, be it, RESOLVED, by the General Assembly of the League of California Cities assembled in Annual Conference in San Jose, October 2, 2015, that article VIII, section 4 of the League bylaws be amended to read as follows: 6
  • 406.
    Article VIII: Officers Section1: Identity. The officers of the League are a President, a First Vice-President, a Second Vice-President/Treasurer, an Immediate Past President, and an Executive Director. Section 2: Duties of League Officers. (a) President. The President presides at all League Board meetings and all General Assemblies. The President has such other powers and duties as may be prescribed by these bylaws or the League Board. (b) First Vice-President. The First Vice-President carries on the duties of the President in the President’s temporary absence or incapacity. The First Vice-President has such other powers and duties as may be prescribed by these bylaws or the League Board. (c) Second Vice-President/Treasurer. The Second Vice-President/Treasurer carries on the duties of the President in the President’s and First Vice-President’s temporary absence or incapacity. The Second Vice-President/Treasurer has such other powers and duties as may be prescribed by these bylaws or the League Board. Section 3: Election. The League Board elects the League’s President, First Vice-President and Second Vice-President for terms of one year. The election occurs at the League Board’s meeting at the Annual Conference. Section 4: Vacancies. A vacancy in the office of President is filled at the next meeting of the League Board by the Immediate Past President who shall serve for the unexpired term of office and, upon election of a new President at the next Annual Conference, shall subsequently serve a full term as Immediate Past President. In the event the Immediate Past President is not available to fill the vacancy in the office of the President, or declines in writing, it shall be filled by the succession of the First Vice-President to that office. A vacancy in the office of First Vice-President, or Second Vice-President/Treasurer, is filled for the un-expired term by appointment by the League Board of a member of the League Board. A vacancy in the office of the Immediate Past President is filled for the un-expired term by the last Past President continuing to hold a city office. ////////// Background Information on Resolution No. 1 Source: League Board of Directors Background: In 2010 and again recently in 2014 the city official elected League President at the Annual Conference in September was not returned to office by the voters of their city. This development triggered a series of steps laid out in the order of succession in the League Bylaws that mandates that the First Vice President advance to the office of President at the next Board meeting and that the Board fill the vacancy in the office of First Vice President for the remainder of the term. 7
  • 407.
    When the Boardfilled the League offices in September 2014, the Second Vice President could not advance to First Vice President since she had been elected to the office of county supervisor and was ineligible to serve. Consequently the Board selected two directors to fill both the offices of First Vice President and Second Vice President. Neither had previously served as a League officer. When the vacancy in the office of President occurred after the November general election, the First Vice President advanced to the office of President after having served only two months as a League officer in contrast to the normal advancement process of twenty-four months. The Second Vice President was advanced to the office of First Vice President after having served only two months as a League officer. The Board also chose a new Second Vice President. At the February, 2015 meeting of the League Board of Directors, the Executive Committee recommended unanimously an amendment to the order of succession in Art. VIII, Sec. 4 of the League Bylaws. The proposed amendment would allow the most experienced member of the Executive Committee, the Immediate Past President, to fill out the remainder of the term of office of a President who leaves the office before its term is completed if the Immediate Past President is willing and able to do so. This arrangement would allow the First Vice President to continue serving and to advance to the office of President on the schedule envisioned by the League Bylaws. If the Immediate Past President were unable or unwilling to serve, the existing order of succession would occur. ////////// League of California Cities Staff Analysis on Resolution No. 1 Staff: Alicia Lewis Committee: Administrative Services Policy Committee Summary: This resolution seeks to streamline the succession process when filling a vacancy for the office of President of the Board of Directors. It would allow for the League bylaws to be amended, allowing the Immediate Past President to fill an unexpected vacancy in the office of President for the remainder of the vacating President’s term. Changes to League bylaws require a 2/3 vote of the General Assembly. Background: The past few years have yielded several occasions where the succession line for Board of Directors leadership was disrupted due to disappointing election results and officers taking office outside of city government. In September 2014 the Board chose a new First and Second Vice President. The First Vice President had not previously served as Second Vice President because the prior member was elected to county office and therefore no longer eligible. When the President was not reelected in the November 2014, the First Vice President advanced to the office of President with only two months of experience as a League officer. Additionally, the Second Vice President was advanced to First Vice President. This transition far outpaced the normal process for advancing as an officer on the Board of Directors. Fiscal Impact: This impact of this resolution would have no fiscal impact. Comments: The nature of this resolution is to ensure that there is a smooth succession process in place and that current Vice-Presidents (First and Second) have ample time to prepare for their role as President.

    allowing the ImmediatePast President to finish out the term of a vacated presidency the Board would ensure there is minimal disruption to the workflow and goals of the association. RESOLUTION REFERRED TO HOUSING, COMMUNITY & ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT POLICY COMMITTEE 2. A RESOLUTION OF THE LEAGUE OF CALIFORNIA CITIES CALLING FOR LEGISLATION TO PRESERVE THERAPEUTIC ENVIRONMENTS FOR GROUP HOMES AND AVOID IMPACTS OF OVERCONCENTRATION OF ALCOHOL AND DRUG ABUSE RECOVERY AND TREATMENT FACILITIES IN RESIDENTIAL NEIGHBORHOODS Source: City of Malibu Concurrence of five or more cities/city officials: Cities: Artesia; Duarte; La Canada Flintridge; Lakewood; Lomita; and Pico Rivera. City Officials: Los Angeles Council Member Mitchell Englander Referred to: Housing, Community and Economic Development Policy Committee Recommendation to General Resolutions Committee: WHEREAS, residential group home facilities provide valuable rehabilitation and support services for those who live in them, which benefits the greater society; and WHEREAS, state departments license these facilities through several state agencies, and operators are required to meet various state statutory requirements; and WHEREAS, in addition to residents, these facilities often include live-in managers and other staff, who provide a variety of services to residents which may include meals, workshops, training, counseling and other services. These uses and services may also require frequent deliveries to be made to the facility, shuttle van service provided to residents, and additional automobile traffic due to shift changes, visiting hours, and other activities. Collectively, these uses often generate more noise and activity than expected from a traditional single-family home; and WHEREAS, the overconcentration of residential group homes changes the character of neighborhoods as they become centers for the delivery of various services. This environment not only creates a disruption to long-time residents, it can also diminish the quality of the residential treatment experience for group home residents as the neighborhood assumes a more institutional setting; and WHEREAS, the State and local governments operate in partnership regarding the location of these residential care facilities in residential neighborhoods in order to carry out the policy of the State to prevent overconcentration of such facilities in these neighborhoods; and WHEREAS, the state has adopted a 300 foot separation requirement between facilities licensed by the Department of Social Services, 1 but these siting standards have not been extended to apply to facilities licensed by other state agencies such as the Department of Health Care Services or other licensed or unlicensed facilities; and WHEREAS, it is the policy of the State that each county and city permit and encourage development of sufficient numbers and types of alcoholism or drug abuse recovery or treatment facilities as are commensurate with local need;2 and 1 Health & Safety Code Section 1520.5 2 Health & Safety Code Section 11834.20 9
  • 409.
    WHEREAS, the CaliforniaFair Employment and Housing Act includes legal protection against discrimination against persons with disabilities through zoning laws, denials of use permits, and other actions authorized under the Planning and Zoning Law;3 and WHEREAS, the Americans with Disabilities Act requires public entities to make reasonable accommodations in policies, practices, or procedures to avoid discrimination on the basis of a disability;4 and WHEREAS, there is no provision in State law that allows for the consideration of the impact of alcoholism or drug abuse recovery or treatment facilities on single-family neighborhoods or the overconcentration of these facilities as there is for residential group home facilities; and WHEREAS, many community concerns could be addressed if State agencies communicated and collaborated more with local governments; and WHEREAS, the League of California Cities is committed to working in partnership with the Legislature and Administration to address overconcentration of alcohol and drug abuse recovery and treatment facilities in residential neighborhoods while respecting important legal rights of patients and legal obligations established by State and federal law. RESOLVED, at the League of California Cities General Assembly, assembled at the League Annual Conference on October 2, 2015 in San Jose, that the League calls for the Governor and the Legislature to work with the League and other stakeholders to address the following issues: 1. Explore options to address overconcentration of alcohol and drug abuse recovery and treatment facilities in residential neighborhoods while respecting important legal rights of patients and legal obligations of public entities. 2. Avoid the creation of institutional settings when multiple facilities are concentrated in a single location, while also reducing noise, congestion and other concerns often raised by residents in residential neighborhoods. 3. Determine the appropriate balance between not-for-profit (including county) facilities and for-profit facilities in residential neighborhoods. ////////// Background Information on Resolution No. 2 Source: City of Malibu Background: State law preempts local zoning regulation for licensed drug and alcohol treatment facilities. State and federal anti-discrimination laws require cities to treat facilities that function as single housekeeping units the same as any other “family.” In many areas of the state, these facilities are impacting residential neighborhoods because their concentration in certain neighborhoods tends to change the character of the area from a residential neighborhood to more like a hospital and institutional zone in terms of the land use impacts. In order to avoid overconcentration in residential neighborhoods, most state-licensed group homes are required by state law to meet certain distancing requirements from other licensed group homes. Alcohol 3 Government Code 12955(l) 4 42 U.S.C. Section 12134 10
  • 410.
    and drug programsare treated differently under state law in this respect and no distancing requirements apply. In fact, the state licensing agency does not impose any restrictions on the number of facilities in the vicinity of one another and have been allowing licensees to obtain two licenses on one lot and to operate integrated multi-structure facilities under the guise of multiple single-family residential licenses. Similarly, state law currently requires private foster family agencies operating in residential zones to be organized and operated on a nonprofit basis, while drug and alcohol programs and sober living homes are permitted to operate as a for-profit business in residential zones. The addiction recovery industry has become big business. There are now thousands of treatment facilities and sober living homes in California and the number is rapidly increasing. State policy sought integration of group homes into residential neighborhoods, not disintegration of the residential character of the neighborhoods. A course correction is required to advance state policy. Through zoning authority, cities can preserve the very neighborhoods that the community-care model depends on to provide the therapeutic environment of a residential neighborhood. Distancing requirements both respond to the biggest concern of local government (over concentration that impairs neighborhood character) and advances state policy. In addition, limiting the zoning preemption to non- profit programs will also assist in preserving the integrity of residential neighborhoods. ////////// League of California Cities Staff Analysis on Resolution No. 2 Staff: Dan Carrigg Committee: Housing, Community and Economic Development Summary: This Resolution calls for the Governor and the Legislature to work with the League and other stakeholders to explore options to address overconcentration of alcohol and drug abuse recovery and treatment facilities in residential neighborhoods while respecting important legal rights of patients and legal obligations of public entities, avoid the creation of institutional settings when multiple facilities are concentrated in a single location, and determine the appropriate balance between not-for-profit (including county) facilities and for-profit facilities in residential neighborhoods. Background: The City of Malibu is sponsoring this resolution as a way of highlighting an issue that continues to create zoning and land use problems in single-family neighborhoods. While this is not a new issue for the League and its cities, and the League has existing policy in this area, the sponsors view the passage of this resolution as helpful in restarting conversations with the Legislature and the Governor’s Administration that can hopefully lead to productive solutions. HCED Committee member and Malibu Council Member Lou La Monte raised this issue at the Committee’s June meeting, where he presented a resolution that had recently been adopted by the California Contract Cities Association on May 15. The Committee encouraged him to work with League staff in his effort to draft a measure to be presented at the League’s annual conference. League staff worked with Mr. La Monte in this regard, mostly in helping ensure that the various “whereas clauses” appropriately reflect the important legal rights of patients and obligations of public entities that Legislators will expect to be balanced in any solutions to local land use issues. Resolved Clauses from Recent CCCA Resolution: NOW THEREFORE, the Members of the California Contract Cities Association hereby re-affirms its commitment to cooperation among units of government that serve the people of California and urges the 11
  • 411.
    California state legislatureto enact legislation that empowers local government to preserve the residential character of neighborhoods necessary to effect state policy regarding group homes as follows: 1. Amend the state law to provide the same distancing and notice requirements for ADP facilities as it does for Community Care Act facilities; 2. Enact legislation providing standards that prevent overconcentration of unlicensed sober living homes to maintain residential character of neighborhoods which has therapeutic benefit for the occupants; and 3. Restrict the zoning preemption for licensed ADP facilities to those owned and operated by non- profit organizations. Fiscal Impact: Minor, if any. Comment: 1) The League has significant existing policy in this area. In the past the League has had internal task forces and sponsored and supported various legislative proposals. 2) Making significant progress in this area has been difficult in the Capitol. Federal and state fair housing and anti-discrimination laws and various court decisions have bearing on local authority in this area. Patient advocacy groups and sympathetic legislators have been suspicious of any solutions that they see as limiting patient access. Thus, any effort to develop solutions to address local land use concerns must also remain sensitive to these issues and the perspective of legislators that sit on committees with jurisdiction in these areas. Existing League Policy: Related to this Resolution, existing policy provides: • The League supports permitting cities to exercise review and land use regulation of group home facilities and residential care facilities in residential neighborhoods including the application of zoning, building and safety standards. State and county licensing agencies should be required to confer with the city’s planning agency in determining whether to grant a license to a community care facility. The League recognizes that better review and regulation of residential care facilities will protect both the community surrounding a facility and the residents within a facility from a poorly managed facility or the absence of state oversight. • The League supports state legislation to require a minimum distance of 300 feet between all new and existing residential care facilities. The League supports notification of cities about conditional release participants residing in group homes. RESOLUTION REFERRED TO HOUSING, COMMUNITY & ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT AND REVENUE & TAXATION POLICY COMMITTEES 3.

  • 412.
    WHEREAS, the temporaryrental of residential houses, condominiums, rooms, and apartments for tourist or transient use is a developing part of the sharing economy; and WHEREAS, while these rentals provide additional options to the traveling public, and income to affected property owners or tenants, it is also important that such rentals comply with local laws, regulations and ordinances; and WHEREAS, the temporary rental of residential houses, condominiums, rooms, and apartments for tourist or transient use can present numerous challenges to neighborhoods and adjacent property owners and create additional noise, traffic, parking, privacy and public safety issues, subvert local rent- control laws, decrease available housing stock and in some cases turn residential neighborhoods into de- facto hotel rows; and WHEREAS, where temporary rental of residential units for tourist or transient use is allowed in conformance with local laws, regulations and ordinances, the applicable transient occupancy tax (TOT) should also be collected. The temporary rental of residential units for tourist or transient use is in direct competition with hotels, motels and other accommodations where guests pay the local TOT, so all such uses should be subject to the same tax. The revenues generated support local streets, roads, fire, police, lifeguards, trash pick-up, park maintenance and other local public services which directly affect local quality of life and the attraction of the community for a visitor; and WHEREAS, the Thriving Communities and Sharing Economy Act, introduced as SB 593 by Senator Mike McGuire (D-2, Healdsburg), prohibits the operators of transient residential hosting platforms from advertising residential units for tourist or transient use if such use will violate any ordinance, regulation, or law within the applicable city or county that opts into its provisions, and requires the confidential quarterly reporting to the city or county of the following information (if the City or County adopts an ordinance requiring the reporting of the data): 1. The address of each residential unit that was occupied for tourist or transient use during the quarterly period. 2. The total number of nights the residential unit was occupied for tourist or transient use. 3. The amounts paid for the occupancy of the residential unit for tourist or transient use. WHEREAS, the provisions of SB 593 bolster existing local authority to enforce local ordinances and collect revenue associated with the temporary rental of residential units by allowing local agencies access to the data necessary to enforce their ordinances and requiring short-term rental hosting platforms to collect local TOT and remit it to the appropriate jurisdiction if short-term rentals are allowed in that jurisdiction; and WHEREAS, the provisions of SB 593 provide a helpful regulatory framework that cities and counties may choose in lieu of exercising their existing authority; and WHEREAS, the League of California Cities supports SB 593 because it recognizes and preserves local flexibility to address the temporary rental of residential units in the manner that best fits with the unique issues and conditions found in each local jurisdiction; and WHEREAS, SB 593 provides local jurisdictions with the data and framework necessary to collect TOT revenues from short-term rentals, to pay for vital local services; and WHEREAS, SB 593 provides local jurisdictions with the data and framework necessary to enforce local regulations designed to ensure the safety of the public and residents living adjacent to short- term rentals; and 13
  • 413.
    WHEREAS, despite anyexisting challenges faced by cities in regulating or collecting revenue from the temporary rental of residential units, cities would oppose any effort to undermine their existing local authority to regulate land use or collect local TOT revenue. RESOLVED, at the League of California Cities General Assembly, assembled at the League Annual Conference on October 2, 2015 in San Jose, as follows: 1. Land use regulation and local tax collection are best overseen and implemented locally. 2. While temporary rental of residential units can offer innovative opportunities for travelers and property owners within the developing sharing economy, cities must retain flexibility to address any problems raised by such uses in a manner that reflects the unique issues and conditions in their communities. 3. Cities have existing legal authority and tools to regulate and collect revenue from the temporary rental of residential units, and SB 593 provides the data and framework that supports and bolsters such local efforts. 4. The League encourages cities to support SB 593. ////////// Background Information on Resolution No. 3 Source: City of West Hollywood Background: The sharing economy has quickly become common place in the everyday life of many individuals, whether they participate in ride-sharing, have rented a short-term residential unit, or live in a community were either is prevalent. The sharing economy has provided benefits to many, but also includes many issues that must be addressed in order to allow these sharing practices to effectively incorporate into our communities. Specifically, the short-term rental of residential units has grown exponentially within the last several years throughout the State, and its impacts need to be addressed. Presently, many cities and counties prohibit the renting of residences for less than 30 days. However, these prohibitions are frequently ignored by Online Vacation Rental Businesses (“OVRBs”), causing unwanted burdens on cities while reducing TOT collection from sanctioned hotels. The short-term rental of residential properties presents numerous challenges within neighborhoods and to adjacent property owners. They may create additional noise, traffic, parking, privacy and public safety issues, subvert local rent-control laws, decrease available housing stock and in some cases turn residential neighborhoods into de-facto hotel rows. The rentals facilitated by OVRB’s in these cities and counties go against the expressed wishes of the residents. For the cities and counties that do allow short-term residential rentals, most require hosts to register and that transient occupancy taxes be paid. However, registration and payment of TOT in these cities and counties are based on the owners of the short terms residential units voluntarily reporting their rental activity. However, there has been a severe under-registration of hosts and underpayment of TOT. Only 10% of hosts in San Francisco have followed the city ordinance to register. Sonoma County has had to spend in excess of $200,000 in an attempt to track down those rentals that are not paying the required TOT under the ordinance. And Los Angeles is currently experiencing a rental housing shortage due in part to the recent popularity of OVRBs. 14

    Cities and countieshave been unable to obtain this information due to the fact that OVRB’s pass their responsibility to individual homeowners. This lack of oversight and enforcement presents a gap in accountability, and as a result, local laws and regulations are not being followed. Sen. Mike McGuire’s Thriving Communities and Sharing Economy Act (SB 593) will provide local jurisdictions with the data and framework necessary to collect TOT revenues from short-term rentals, to pay for vital local services; or conversely, the data necessary to help cities enforce local regulations designed to ensure the safety of the public and residents living adjacent to short-term rentals, if those rental are not allowed. Specifically, SB 593 would: 1) Prohibit the operators of short-term residential hosting platforms from advertising residential units for tourist or transient use if such use will violate any ordinance, regulation, or law, within the applicable city that opts into the bill’s provisions; 2) Require short-term rental housing platforms to collect and remit applicable transient occupancy tax (if short-term rentals are allowed in the city and the collection of TOT is required by the city); and 3) Require the confidential quarterly reporting of the address of each residential unit that was occupied for tourist or transient use during the quarterly period, the total number of nights the residential unit was occupied for tourist or transient use, and the amounts paid for the occupancy of the residential unit for tourist or transient use. The premise of SB 593 is simple: reinforce local laws already on the books. Where vacation rentals are legal, the bill will assist local jurisdictions in their regulation and collection of Transient Occupancy Taxes, (TOT) as more than 430 cities and 56 counties impose a TOT. Where vacation rentals are illegal by local ordinance, the bill will prohibit online vacation rental businesses from making a rental. The Thriving Communities and Sharing Economies Act will empower local control, provide desperately needed funding for parks, local roads, fire and police services, and promote safe neighborhoods. SB 593 will require online vacation rental businesses to disclose information to cities and counties and/or collect and disperse Transient Occupancy Tax dollars – projected to be in the hundreds of millions of dollars statewide. The emerging short term rental industry is an important segment of the state economic fabric and an issue of statewide importance. SB 593 would assist in facilitating a shared economy that will be beneficial to California’s cities and their residents. ////////// League of California Cities Staff Analysis on Resolution No. 3 Staff: Dan Carrigg Committees: Housing, Community & Economic Development; Revenue & Taxation Summary: This Resolution seeks to highlight and increase support for SB 593 (McGuire), which is pending in the Legislature. SB 593, titled the Thriving Communities and Sharing Economy Act, seeks to bolster local efforts to regulate and collect transient occupancy taxes from the temporary rental of residential houses, condominiums, rooms, and apartments for tourists and transient use. The League is currently in support of this legislation. Background: The City of West Hollywood and other cities are sponsoring the resolution in an effort to expand awareness of the issue among cities and encourage additional support for SB 593. They view the 15
  • 415.
    legislation as helpfulin bolstering local efforts to appropriately regulate a growing vacation rental industry. The author introduced SB 593 based upon his past experience as both former Mayor of Healdsburg and a Sonoma County Supervisor. These areas are popular with tourists, and the affected communities are facing increasing land use and revenue collection issues. SB 593 is currently on the Senate Floor and is considered a “two-year bill,” meaning that it cannot move until January 2016. In addition to the League, SB 593 has a broad range of support: Support: American Federation of State, County, and Municipal Employees, AFL-CIO; American Hotel and Lodging Association; Asian American Hotel Owners Association; American Insurance Association; Association of California Insurance Companies; Andaz West Hollywood General Manager Lin Schatz; Association for Los Angeles Deputy Sheriffs; City of Big Bear Lake; Borrego Springs Chamber of Commerce & Visitors Bureau; California Apartment Association; California Association of Boutique and Breakfast Inns; California Association of County Treasurers and Tax Collectors; California Apartment Association; California Association of Code Enforcement Officers; California College and University Police Chiefs Association; California Narcotics Officers Association; California Police Chiefs Association; California Hotel and Lodging Association; California Labor Federation; California Professional Firefighters; California State Association of Counties; California Teamsters Public Affairs Council; Contra Cost County Treasurer-Tax Collector Russell Watts; Paul Desterman, Mindy Desterman; El Dorado County Treasurer-Tax Collector C.L.

Many cities and counties are encountering challenges identifying units in their community that are being used as vacation rentals and collecting associated revenue. Where vacation rentals are permitted by local ordinance, the passage of SB 593 can assist local efforts, thereby increasing local revenues to support local services. Comment: 3) Earlier this year the League’s Housing Community and Economic Development Committee and Revenue and Taxation Committee reviewed an earlier version of SB 593 and initially adopted a 16
  • 416.
    Support, If Amendedposition, which was concurred with by the League board. The author later incorporated the League’s amendments into the bill and the League issued a support letter on the current version of the bill. 4) Local governments already have extensive authority to regulate land use and collect local taxes. While vacation rentals may be an increasingly popular option for the traveling public, local ordinances are beginning to adjust. The League supports SB 593 because it is crafted in a way that supports local authority in dealing with this emerging issue. Local agencies can either opt in to its provisions or continue to address issues differently under their existing local authority. Existing League Policy: Related to this Resolution, existing policy provides: HCED Policy: The League believes that local zoning is a primary function of cities and is an essential component of home rule. Rev. & Tax Policy: Additional revenue is required in the state/local revenue structure. There is not enough money generated by the current system or allocated to the local level by the current system to meet the requirements of a growing population and deteriorating services and facilities. RESOLUTION REFERRED TO ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY POLICY COMMITTEE 4. RESOLUTION CALLING UPON THE GOVERNOR AND THE LEGISLATURE TO WORK WITH THE LEAGUE OF CALIFORNIA CITIES TO ENACT LEGISLATION OR TO OTHERWISE COMPEL SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA EDISON TO CREATE A PROGRAM TO AUTOMATICALLY PROVIDE DIRECT COMPENSATION TO ITS CUSTOMERS AFFECTED BY PROLONGED ELECTRICAL POWER OUTAGES UNDER SPECIFIED CIRCUMSTANCES. Source: City of Rancho Palos Verdes Concurrence of five or more cities/city officials: Cities of Hermosa Beach, Lomita, Palos Verdes Estates, Rolling Hills and Rolling Hills Estates Referred to: Environmental Quality Policy Committee Recommendations to General Resolutions Committee: WHEREAS, local governments in California are often reliant upon investor-owned private utility companies for the provision of electrical power to their citizens, businesses and institutions; and, WHEREAS, the reliability and consistency of electrical supply and transmission is critically important to local governments to ensure the protection of the public safety, health and general welfare of communities; and, WHEREAS, prolonged disruptions in electrical service can jeopardize the health of citizens who have a variety of physical challenges and rely on a constant source of power for medical devices; the safety of senior citizens who are particularly susceptible to injury if power outages persist for long periods of time into evening hours; and the financial well-being of citizens, businesses and institutions that suffer from the loss of food, medication and other perishable items during prolonged power outages; and, WHEREAS, Southern California Edison (SCE), an investor-owned utility serving 15 million customers in Southern and Central California, experiences frequent and prolonged service disruptions due to both planned and unplanned outages, equipment failures and weather-related events, which adversely affect local governments within its service area; and, 17
  • 417.
    WHEREAS, SCE hasbeen fined by the California Public Utilities Commission in the past due to prolonged service disruptions, most recently being levied a $24.5 million penalty as a result of a prolonged outage that resulted from a wind storm in 2011; and, WHEREAS, although SCE provides a claim process by which its customers may seek compensation for financial losses incurred as a result of prolonged service disruptions, SCE appears to reject most such claims; which places an unreasonable burden upon its customers and creates a false impression that customers will be compensated for their losses; and, WHEREAS, at least one other investor-owned utility in California, Pacific Gas and Electric (PG&E) in Northern and Central California, has existing programs and procedures in place (“Safety Net” and “Service Guarantee”) that automatically and directly compensate its customers when they are affected by prolonged service disruptions, including disruptions due to weather events and other causes, without the need for customers to seek compensation through a claim process; and, WHEREAS, these PG&E programs provide for “Storm Inconvenience Payments” of $25 to $100 for weather-related service disruptions of forty-eight (48) hours or more; as well as $30 service credits in instances of where the customer’s electrical service is not restored within four (4) hours, or the customer is not provided with a time for service restoration within four (4) hours; the customer is without electrical service for twenty-four (24) hours or more in the event of unplanned service disruptions (unless the cause of the disruption is completely beyond the utility’s control); and the customer is without electrical service as a result of a planned service interruption where less than seventy-two (72) hours’ notice is provided to the customer; and, WHEREAS, local governments within SCE’s service area believe that requiring SCE to implement automatic and direct compensation programs for prolonged service disruptions, similar to those implemented by PG&E, will provide tangible relief to citizens, businesses and institutions that are adversely affected by prolonged outages, and will incentivize SCE to improve the reliability of its equipment and service; and now therefore let it be, RESOLVED by the General Assembly of the League of California Cities, assembled in San Jose on October 2, 2015, that the League calls for the Governor and the Legislature to work with the League of California Cities to enact legislation or to otherwise compel SCE to create a program to automatically provide direct compensation to its customers affected by prolonged electrical power outages under specified circumstances; and let it be, FURTHER RESOLVED that such program shall be modeled upon PG&E’s “Safety Net” and “Service Guarantee” programs, and shall cover weather-related events and planned and unplanned service disruptions. ////////// Background Information on Resolution No. 4 Source: City of Rancho Palos Verdes Background: The City of Rancho Palos Verdes and other cities in the South Bay region of Los Angeles County have longstanding concerns regarding the ineffective process by which Southern California Edison (SCE) addresses residents’ claims, and desires to obtain the League’s assistance in correcting that process. On the Palos Verdes Peninsula, SCE’s aged infrastructure has caused fires and repeated, prolonged power 18
  • 418.
    outages. The prolongedpower outages are the focus of this request, because they adversely affect residents in a variety of ways, particularly: • Residents who have a variety of physical challenges and rely on a constant source of power for medical devices; • Residents who are senior citizens and are particularly susceptible to injury if power outages persist for a long period of time into the evening hours; and, • Residents who suffer financial burdens as a result of losing food, medication and other perishable items during prolonged power outages. The California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) has the authority to impose penalties on utilities, including for prolonged power outages, and did so in connection with an extreme wind event that occurred in the Los Angeles area in 2011. However, the CPUC is not authorized to award claims to residents for prolonged electrical power outages. If a resident has a claim he or she wishes to pursue, the resident must file a claim with SCE, along with documentation of the financial loss that was incurred. If the claim is rejected, the resident then must file a lawsuit against SCE (probably in small claims court). Most residents will not want to spend the time and effort to pursue small claims for monetary damages arising from extended power outages. SCE only awards claims for damages caused by its own negligence. This means that if an extended power outage is caused by a weather-related event, the claim will be denied. The SCE website also states that it will not cover claims for power surges. Since SCE often moves power from one line to another to enable repairs and maintenance, SCE can be the cause of the power surge, but residents still will not receive compensation for those claims. Proposed Legislation The proposed resolution calls upon the Governor and Legislature to enact legislation (or take other action) that will provide rebates in flat amounts to SCE customers for extended power outages under specified conditions. The proposed legislation could be modeled on the “Safety Net” and “Service Guarantee” programs offered by Pacific Gas and Electric (PG&E), another California-based investor-owned utility, which provides specific rebates to its customers based upon the type, cause and duration of service interruptions. These penalties are designed to provide direct compensation to SCE’s customers who are adversely affected by prolonged power outages, and to incentivize SCE to restore the power as quickly as possible. They also will eliminate the frustration that SCE’s customers experience as a result of SCE’s existing claim process. ////////// League of California Cities Staff Analysis on Resolution No. 4 Staff: Jason Rhine Committee: Environmental Quality Summary: Resolution No. 4 calls upon the Governor and the Legislature to work with the League of California Cities to enact legislation or to otherwise compel Southern California Edison (SCE) to create a program to automatically provide direct compensation to its customers affected by a prolonged electrical power outage under specified circumstances. Background: City of Rancho Palos Verdes asserts that the South Bay region of Los Angeles County has longstanding concern regarding the ineffective process by which SCE addresses residents’ claims associated with 19
  • 419.
    prolonged electrical poweroutages. The City believes that SCE’s aged infrastructure has caused fires and repeated, prolonged electrical power outages. Prolonged electrical power outages can adversely affect residents who have physical challenges and rely on a constant source of power for medical devices; residents who are senior citizens and are particularly susceptible to injury if electrical power outages persist for a long period of time into the evening hours; and, residents who suffer financial burdens as a result of losing food, medication and other perishable items during prolonged electrical power outages. According to information provided by SCE, SCE has the following customer compensation program: Service Guarantee Program SCE shall provide the following four service guarantees to its electric customers and provide a $30 credit when these service guarantees are not met. Unless otherwise stated below, the four service standards apply only to active service accounts served under the Residential, General Service and Industrial, or Agricultural and Pumping rate schedules. • Restoration of Service Within 24 Hours: SCE will restore electrical service within 24 hours of when SCE first becomes aware of a power outage. The first credit will be applied if the outage exceeds 24 hours. Additional credits will be applied for each succeeding 24-hour period that the customer is without service. Partial credits will not be paid for outage periods less than a full 24-hour increment. Power outages associated with a moderate, severe, or catastrophic storm condition are exempt from the program. • Missed Appointments: When an appointment for a field service visit is made with a customer for a specific appointment time, and the customer’s presence is required for establishing new service, a billing inquiry, or meter installation, SCE will arrive at the agreed upon appointment within 30 minutes before or after the scheduled time. • Notification of Planned Outages: SCE will provide customers with notification of a planned outage at least three calendar days prior to the event. SCE will notify customers either by US Postal Service mail, by phone, in-person or door-to-door through door hangers, or by e-mail if SCE has the customer’s e-mail address on file. If a planned outage is rescheduled to a new date not specified in the original notice to the customer, SCE will provide a new notice at least three calendar days in advance of the rescheduled planned outage. • Timely and Accurate First Bill: SCE will issue an accurate first bill to a new customer of record within 60 days of establishing service. The bill and bill accuracy is defined according to the terms and conditions of SCE’s Rule 9 (Rendering and Payment of Bills) and Rule 17 Section A (Adjustment of Bills and Meter Tests Usage) and Section D (Adjustment of Bills for Billing Error). The service guarantee credit process will be initiated once SCE is aware that the first bill was either inaccurate or issued beyond sixty days of establishing service. The first bill for any given customer account is eligible for only one service guarantee credit regardless of whether the bill is late, inaccurate, or both. According to PG&E’s website, PG&E offers the following customer compensation programs: Compensation for Extended Outages STORMS MESSAGE: If you are a residential customer and have gone without power for at least 48 hours due to severe storm conditions, you may qualify for a payment under PG&E's Safety Net Program. This program provides for the automatic payment of $25 - $100, which is paid about 60 days following the storm outage. In some cases, processing may take 90-120 days (heavy storm season). Safety Net Program We understand how inconvenient it is for customers who go without power for 48 hours or longer due to severe events, such as a storm. That is why PG&E created the following: 20
  • 420.
    • PG&E willprovide payments to residential customers we determine were without power for more than 48 hours due to a severe storm. • The payments will range from $25 up to $100, depending on the length of the outage. Eligibility • The Storm Inconvenience Payment provision of the Safety Net Program applies to residential customers only (rate schedules E-1, E-6, E-7, E-8, E-9, EM, ES, ESR, ET, and EV); customers also may be enrolled in programs such as CARE and medical baseline. • Businesses, agricultural accounts, multi-family building common areas, streetlights, and all other customers other than residential customers are ineligible for Storm Inconvenience Payments. • Storm Inconvenience Payments will not be issued to customers in areas where access to PG&E's electric facilities was blocked (mud slides, road closures or other access issues). Also, if customer equipment prevented restoral or extended customer outage (ex. weatherhead, service drop, etc.). • The outage must have occurred during a major weather-related event that caused significant damage to PG&E's electric distribution system. • The outage must have lasted more than 48 hours. • Storm Inconvenience Payments are in increments of $25 ($100 maximum per event). Payment levels are based on the length of the customer's outage: o 48 to 72 hours $25 o 72 to 96 hours $50 o 96 to 120 hours $75 o 120 hours or more $100 • Both bundled-service and direct-access residential customers qualify for Storm Inconvenience Payments. • Storm Inconvenience Payments will be issued to the customer of record. • A customer with multiple residential services such as a primary residence and a vacation home is eligible for Storm Inconvenience Payments at each location where there was a storm-related outage of more than 48 hours. • Customers must have an open account (service agreement) in good standing at the time of the outage and at the time payment is issued (generally 45 to 60 days after the event). • For master-metered accounts such as mobile home parks, the customer of record will receive the Storm Inconvenience Payment for the master meter only. Service Guarantee Program Gas and electricity are essential to keep your life running smoothly, safely and efficiently. When your service is interrupted or in need of repair, you expect a reasonable and timely response. To ensure that we provide this to you, PG&E has implemented service guarantees, which spell out our commitment to prompt customer service for our customers: • Guarantee 1: Missed Appointments: PG&E will meet the agreed upon appointment time set with our customer during contact with our Call Center or automatically credit your account $30. • Guarantee 2: Non-Emergency Investigations: PG&E will investigate non-emergency situations (check meter) and communicate results to a customer within seven days of a customer's request. Check-meter appointments between October 15 and December 15 of each year will be scheduled within 10 workdays. If an off-site meter test is required, PG&E will communicate the results to the customer within 30 days. If access is required to the customer's premises, then an appointment is necessary. Failure to meet the service guarantee will result in a $30 credit to the customer’s account. An automatic credit to the customer’s account would apply only if PG&E misses a scheduled appointment date. If 21
  • 421.
    the appointment isscheduled beyond five workdays, the customer must notify PG&E to receive the credit. If PG&E's records show that such scheduling was at the customer's request, the credit does not apply. • Guarantee 3: Emergency: The Emergency Service Guarantee is not currently in effect. • Guarantee 4: Complaint Resolution: PG&E will decide on a course of action to resolve a complaint and communicate it to the customer within three working days. PG&E will communicate the complaints resolution to the customer within 10 working days, or 30 working days when an off-site meter test is required or an on-site home audit is requested. Failure to meet the service guarantee will result in a $30 credit to the customer’s account. • Guarantee 5: New Meter Installations: PG&E will meet the agreed upon date for new service meter installations and service turn-ons or automatically credit your account $50. • Guarantee 6: Electric Service Disruptions: PG&E will respond to customer calls reporting electric service interruptions within four hours by restoring service; or by informing the customer, upon request, when service restoration is expected; or automatically credit your account $30. • Guarantee 7: Electric Service Restoration: PG&E will restore electric service within 24 hours, unless the cause is absolutely beyond our control, or we will automatically credit your account $30 for each 24-hour period you are without service. • Guarantee 8: Commencing Bills: PG&E will issue an accurate commencing bill to a new customer account within 60 days of service initiation, or we will automatically credit your account $30. • Guarantee 9: Planned Interruptions: PG&E shall provide at least three days’ notice of a planned interruption in service. Failure to meet the service guarantee will result in a $30 credit to the customer’s account. This guarantee will require a customer call and PG&E investigation to determine if PG&E’s commitment to notify customers 72 hours in advance of planned interruptions was missed. Customers notified of planned service interruptions 72 hours in advance may have their service interrupted on multiple occasions on the date(s). • Guarantee 10: Service Termination in Error: Impacted customers will be eligible for a $100 credit adjustment if PG&E terminates service in error. Fiscal Impact: No Impact on City Funds. Compelling SCE to create automatic direct compensation programs modeled on PG&E’s “Safety Net” and “Service Guarantee” programs would have no direct fiscal impact on cities because the “Safety Net” program is limited to residential customers and the “Service Guarantee” program is very similar to SCE’s existing program. However, residential customers would receive direct payments in specified circumstances for prolonged electrical power outages. Comment: • The City of Rancho Palos Verdes, in sponsoring this resolution, does not believe that SCE has an effective process to address customer damage claims associated with prolonged electrical power outages. According to the resolution, the City of Rancho Palos Verdes would like to compel SCE to create a program to automatically provide direct compensation to its customers affected by prolonged electrical power outages under specified circumstances. Additionally, the program would be modeled upon PG&E “Safety Net” and “Service Guarantee” programs, and shall cover weather-related events and planned and unplanned service disruptions. • What is SCE’s process to provide relief to customers that have experienced a prolonged electrical power outage? As part of SCE’s four point service guarantee program, customers experiencing an electrical power outages exceeding 24 hours, may qualify for a $30 credit under specific conditions. However, prolonged electrical power outages 22
  • 422.
    caused by amoderate, severe, or catastrophic storm condition are exempt from the program. • How does PG&E provide relief to customers that have experienced a prolonged electrical power outage? Like SCE, PG&E has a multi-point service guarantee program that provides customer credits that range from $30 -$100 for a wide range of activities. In addition, PG&E has a specific, weather related program, the “Safety Net” program, which provides automatic, direct payment to customers experiencing electrical power outages, in excess of 48 hours. • What type of customer compensation program does the Resolution call for? The Resolution calls for a customer compensation program that expands beyond PG&E’s two existing programs. Under the Resolution, the City of Rancho Palos Verdes would like to compel SCE to adopt a program based on PG&E’s “Safety Net” and “Service Guarantee” programs, and also cover weather-related events and planned and unplanned service disruptions. • Do these programs really provide funds to residential customers? While the Resolution holds PG&E’s programs in high esteem, after hearing from a number of city officials in PG&E’s service territory, it seems that there is a great deal of skepticism around the effectiveness and utilization of their residential compensation programs. Is PG&E’s program really working as described? • What about California’s other Investor Owned Utilities (IOU) and municipal utilities? The Resolution is directed at SCE. However, the committee may want to consider the implications of the Resolution on the other investor owned utilities and municipal utilities. • Is legislation the best approach? The Resolution calls upon the Governor and the Legislature to work with the League of California Cities to enact legislation or to otherwise compel SCE to create a program to automatically provide direct compensation to its customers affected by a prolonged electrical power outage. Given that the California Public Utilities Commission regulates all of the investor owned utilities, it may be more appropriate to seek a regulatory change rather than a legislative proposal. • More information to come. The Resolution could have broader implications beyond SCE and PG&E. Prior to the Environmental Quality Policy Committee and General Resolutions Committee meeting at Annual Conference, League staff will provide additional background information on the following: o Other IOU electrical power outage compensation programs. o Municipal utility electrical power outage compensation programs. o Role of the California Public Utilities Commission. Existing League Policy: In response to the energy crisis of 2001, the League of California Cities established extensive policy and guiding principles related to the electric industry. However, there is no existing policy that pertains to prolonged power outages or compensating customers for damages incurred during a prolonged power outage. 23

    Mammoth Lakes TownCouncil P.O. Box 1609, Mammoth Lakes, CA, 93546 (760) 934-8989 ~ L4~.Q4.- www.townofmammothlakes.ca.gov CAL! FORN IA July 30, 2015 Stephany Aguilar, President League of California Cities 1400 K Street Sacramento, CA 95814 RE: LETTER IN SUPPORT OF A RESOLUTION OF THE LEAGUE OF CALIFORNIA CITIES SUPPORTING SB 593 (MCGUIRE) Dear President Aguilar: The Town of Mammoth Lakes supports the proposed resolution related to the Sharing Economy and concurs in the submission of the resolution for consideration by the League of Cities General Assembly at its annual meeting on October 2, 2015. The Town of Mammoth Lakes is a small, rural community in the Eastern Sierra Region of about 8,000 full-time residents Mammoth Lakes is a tourist destination, servicing hundreds of thousands of visitors each year. We are geographically isolated from populated areas by several hundred miles and are supported by our one primary industry — tourism. The League’s proposed resolution reaffirms and acknowledges local efforts to effectively regulate land use impacts and collect applicable taxes from transient residential rentals as part of the emerging “shared economy”. The short-term rental of residential houses, rooms, condominiums, and apartments present numerous challenges within neighborhoods and to adjacent property owners. They may create additional noise, traffic, parking, privacy and public safety issues, subvert local rent-control laws, and decrease available housing stock. In Mammoth Lakes, with a limited police force that is not staffed 24-hours a day and a code enforcement staff of one, enforcement of these types of issues can be very challenging. Where the temporary rental of residential units is allowed by local regulation, the associated transient occupancy tax (TOT) should also be collected. These units are in direct competition with hotels, motels and other accommodations where guests pay the local transient occupancy tax, so all transient rentals should be subject to the same tax. The revenues generated support local services, including but not limited to, public safety, snow removal, maintenance of public parks and facilities, road maintenance, and recreation programs, which directly affect local quality of life and the attraction of the community for a visitor. This proposal will make it much easier for communities such as Mammoth Lakes that depend on revenue from TOT to enforce existing rules and regulations and collect TOT as specified in our Municipal Code. Mammoth Lakes relies heavily on TOT collection to operate the Town government; nearly 65% of the Town’s operating budget is funded by the collection of TOT. 36
  • 436.
    Collection of TOTis so important to the Town that we have three full-time employees dedicated its enforcement. This includes making sure that people remit their taxes on time, but more importantly it is tracking down violators who are renting their units without an approved permit, renting units in locations where the zoning does not permit it, and/or not remitting their taxes to the Town. Enforcement is made much more difficult by the use of online vacation rental business (OVRB) websites where unit numbers and addresses are typically not listed and often owners do not require the payment of TOT. The data proposed to be collected and provided to us by OVRBs will be of great value as we manage transient rentals in our community. The Town of Mammoth Lakes believes SB 593, as referenced in the proposed resolution, acknowledges existing local authority in this area and provides the necessary data for local jurisdictions to enforce their regulations regarding short-term residential rentals and a helpful regulatory framework that local governments may choose in lieu of exercising their existing authority For all of these reasons, the Town of Mammoth Lakes supports the League California Cities’ Re~olution.

The resolution reaffirms and acknowledges local efforts to effectively regulate land use impacts and collect applicable taxes from transient residential rentals as part of the emerging “shared economy”. The short-term rental of residential houses, rooms, condominiums, and apartments present numerous challenges within neighborhoods and to adjacent property owners. They may create additional noise, traffic, parking, privacy and public safety issues, subvert local rent-control laws, decrease available housing stock and in some cases turn residential neighborhoods into de-facto hotel rows. The City of Napa’s zoning ordinance defines a “Rental Housing Shortage” as a vacancy rate less than 5%. A vacancy rate of less than 2% is defined as “Severe”. We are currently at severe levels. The City’s vacancy rates have continued to decline from 4% in 2009 to less than 2% today. Our Housing Element recognizes the issue of rising housing costs in Napa and its impact on the goal of maintaining Napa’s quality of life by balancing the availability of housing with other environmental considerations. Maintaining and protecting our housing stock is of utmost importance to the City of Napa. Where the temporary rental of residential units is allowed by local regulation, the associated transient occupancy tax (TOT) should also be collected. These units are in direct competition with hotels, motels and other accommodations where guests pay the local transient occupancy tax, so all such uses should be subject to the same tax. The revenues generated support local streets, roads, fire, police, lifeguards, trash pick-up, park maintenance and other local public services which directly affect local quality of life and the attraction of the community for a visitor. The City of Napa believes SB 593, as referenced in the proposed resolution, acknowledges existing local authority in this area and provides the necessary data for local jurisdictions to enforce their regulations 38

The City of Sonoma is a tourist destination and the proliferation of vacation rentals is a top priority for City staff. The workload in monitoring and attempting to ensure compliance with local 45

    regulations is over-burdeningour small staff. In addition, the sale of available housing has become a market for out of town investors to purchase and create new vacation rentals. Without legislative intervention, vacation rentals become an epidemic in a desirable destination location and the local residents “pay the price”. For these reasons, the City of Sonoma supports the League’s Resolution. Sincerely, Carol E.

    LETTERS OF CONCURRENCE ResolutionNo. 4 Compensation for Prolonged Electrical Power Outages 47

    City of HermosaBeach Civic Center, 1315 Valley Drive, Hermosa Beach, CA 90254-3885 July 30, 2015 Stephany Aguilar, President League of California Cities 1400 K St., Ste. 400 Sacramento, CA 95814 Dear President Aguilar: The City of Hermosa Beach supports the City of Rancho Palos Verdes’ effort to submit a resolution for consideration by the General Assembly at the League’s 2015 Annual Conference in San José. The City of Rancho Palos Verdes’ resolution seeks to address the failure of Southern California Edison (SCE) to reasonably compensate its customers for losses incurred due to prolonged service disruptions. Prolonged electrical outages jeopardize the public safety, health and general welfare of the communities within SCE’s service area. Among the populations that are most at risk as a result of outages are:  Customers with physical challenges who rely on a constant source of power for medical devices;  Customers who are senior citizens and are particularly susceptible to injury if power outages persist for long periods of time into evening hours; and,  Customers who suffer financial burdens as a result of losing food, medication and other perishable items during prolonged power outages. At least one other California utility, Pacific Gas and Electric (PG&E), provides automatic, direct rebates to its customers in the event of prolonged power outages for a variety of causes, including severe weather and other planned and unplanned outages. Rebates are provided automatically to PG&E’s customers without filing a claim, which we believe demonstrates that such a program is feasible for SCE as well. As a member of the League, our city values the policy development opportunity provided by the Annual Conference Resolution process. We appreciate your time and consideration of this important issue. Please feel free to contact Andrew Brozyna at (310) 318-0238 or abrozyna@hermosabch.org if you have any questions. Sincerely, Tom Bakaly City Manager 48
