INTRODUCTION The Metropolitan Bakersfield General Plan Update process began in May 2007 with a series of Phase 1 Town Hall Meetings and surveys to involve members of the community who live, work, and play in the Metropolitan Bakersfield area. Their input was important to help identify issues that need to be considered in the General Plan Update, and to identify potential solutions to issues facing the area. Participants were asked to identify: . The strengths of the Metropolitan Bakersfield area that need to be preserved or enhanced, . Problems that need to be addressed, and . Potential solutions to problems and ways to maintain and improve quality of life in the Metropolitan Bakersfield area. The results of the Phase 1 workshops and surveys are critical to ensure that the General Plan Update considers community’s concerns and contains goals, policies, and implementation measures that the community will support, and to improve the quality of life for residents within the community. COMMENT SUMMARIES This report summarizes the comments received during a series of four Phase 1 Town Hall Meetings in May 2007, held in conjunction with the Kern Council of Governments (KernCOG) regional “Blueprint” planning process. Each of the Phase 1 workshops was held in a different quadrant of Bakersfield: northwest, northeast, southwest and southeast. A variety of comments were received which reflect the portion of the Metropolitan Bakersfield area in which the responder lives or works. For example, according to information collected by KernCOG, southeast Bakersfield residents were very concerned about transportation and mobility, whereas southwest and northwest residents had less concern about this issue. The Phase 1 Town Hall Meeting summaries with complete transcriptions are included in Appendix A. Also included in this report are summaries of the Vision 2020 “Web Survey” conducted in July 2007 and a public telephone survey commissioned by KernCOG. Executive 1 PUBLIC OUTREACH ISSUES REPORT summaries of each survey are included in Appendix B and C, respectively. A complete account of the KernCOG telephone survey is available at http://www.kerncog.org/survey.php . In addition to the comments received during the Phase 1 workshops and through the Vision 2020 “Web Survey” and KernCOG telephone survey, some community members submitted comments and ideas directly to the City of Bakersfield and Kern County; these are also included in the summaries in this report. Copies of the comments submitted directly to the City of Bakersfield and Kern County are included in Appendix D. KernCOG subsequently scheduled a series of three Phase 2 Town Hall Meetings for the regional “Blueprint” planning process. These workshops took place in late January and early February 2008. The intent of the Phase 2 workshops was to educate the participants about the KernCOG “Blueprint” process, to share the results of the Phase 1 Town Hall Meetings, and to present and facilitate discussion and collect input about draft principles and draft illustrative “scenarios” for future growth. The participants evaluated a set of nine principles developed from the Phase 1 workshops and rated the principles based upon their perceived importance to the future development of Bakersfield. The summaries of the results from the Phase 2 Town Hall Meetings are included in Appendix E of this report. II. COMMENTS CORRELATED TO GENERAL PLAN ELEMENTS The information that was collected from the public through the various avenues was sorted into categories matching the current Elements (chapters) of the Metropolitan Bakersfield General Plan: Land Use Circulation Housing Conservation Open Space Noise, and Public Safety LAND USE The Land Use Element designates the type, intensity, and general distribution of various land uses throughout a plan area. A well thought out plan and community design links and supports the other elements of a good General Plan. Metropolitan Bakersfield residents 2 PUBLIC OUTREACH ISSUES REPORT have expressed a need for plans that direct new growth into the existing developed areas, with a focus on more parks and pathways that link businesses together and enhance the downtown core and historic community. The public comments regarding strengths and weaknesses related to land use are summarized below. Strengths: A common theme represented by the public comments gathered from the various sources was that Metropolitan Bakersfield has a “small town feel” and according to the results of the telephone survey nearly 90% of respondents feel it is a “desirable place to live.” Overall strengths include: . Shopping is available and close by . Education is varied and schools are positioned well within the community . There is a diverse opportunity for cultural and faith-based activity . The proximity to agriculture provides fresh foods and economic opportunity . Centrally located between the mountains, the coast and northern and southern California . Parks, open space and recreation is readily available; with a key focus on the Kern River Parkway and trail system. Some direct comments related to these strengths include “close proximity of services (convenient),” “Downtown backbone and unique historical elements,” “lots of schools, well dispersed,” “small town atmosphere,” and “strong faith base.” Weaknesses: The main concerns expressed by Metropolitan Bakersfield residents in relation to land use are rapid growth and sprawl. From every group, there were comments related to expansion into agricultural lands and open space. Many respondents fear the infrastructure will not keep up with the population growth, with 84% of the telephone respondents rating their local government as average or below when it comes to housing and land use policies. Other weaknesses identified were: . Not enough hospitals or clinics; no children’s or veteran’s hospital . There is a great need for infill development and urban revitalization . The desire for walking/bike paths that connect land uses 3 PUBLIC OUTREACH ISSUES REPORT Specific comments include “rapid growth outpacing services (better planning),” “replacing agricultural with housing,” “lack of planning for growth/urban sprawl and loss of downtown area,” and “low ratio of parks to population.” Kern Council of Governments Potential Solutions: 2007 Public Survey Overall suggestions relating to improving land use issues focused around better planning and limiting development. Some A 2007 county-wide public opinion survey prepared for the Kern Council of respondents suggest a moratorium on growth, while others Governments’ “Blueprint” planning process recommended incentives for developers who focus on infill and produced results similar to those from the City/County workshops. The KernCOG revitalization. survey consisted of telephone interviews with a random sample of 1,200 households throughout Kern County, including 600 from CIRCULATION the Metropolitan Bakersfield area.

  • Home at Last! Kern County's Plan to End Homelessness
    HOME AT LAST! KERN COUNTY’S PLAN TO END HOMELESSNESS BY 2028 Prepared For The Citizens of Kern County By United Way of Kern County And The Kern County Homeless Collaborative May 2018 “It is my strong belief that every individual and family deserves safe, af- fordable housing. I know the caring and compassionate people of Bak- ersfield and Kern County share this goal. It can be achieved through proactive, coordinated action and investments in cost-effective initiatives that solve homelessness. We have developed the plan. Now the real work begins. I am asking that you please join us now in ending homelessness in our community.” Harvey Hall, 2008 Mayor of Bakersfield, 2000-2016 Dedicated to: Harvey L. Hall, 1941-2018 Bakersfield Mayor, Businessman, Visionary Leader, Humanitar- ian, and Friend Executive Summary Home At Last! Kern County’s Plan to End Homelessness by 2028 ii The Kern County Homeless Collaborative believes that home- lessness is a solvable social problem and that through collabo- rative planning and action, we can eventually ensure that every individual and family has safe, affordable housing. Solving homelessness is the morally correct thing to do and will improve the life of the community. We look forward to the day when homelessness becomes a rare, brief and non-recurring event. During the past decade, Kern County saw an overall decrease of almost 40% in its home- less population, despite challenges brought on by Great Recession of 2008-2010. This was in large part due to the work of the Kern County Homeless Collaborative (KCHC) and its partner agencies, guided by the 2008 Home First! A Ten Year Plan to End Chronic Homelessness, which was prepared at the request of then Bakersfield Mayor Harvey L.

  • OFFICE of the CITY MANAGER October 20, 2017 TO
    OFFICE OF THE CITY MANAGER October 20, 2017 TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council AT FROM: Alan Tandy, City Manager SUBJECT: General Information Notable Items This week, Chevron announced a 26% reduction of its San Joaquin Valley Business Unit (SJVBU) workforce, a decision stemming from the company’s restructuring Transformation Project. The SJVBU includes Kern County, Fresno County and Monterey County. The exact number of employees to be reassigned or laid off is not known at this time. This reduction highlights the unfortunate repercussions to the local economy due to uncertainty in the oil market. On September 7, 2017, Amazon released a Request for Proposals (RFP) for their 2nd Headquarters in North America. Amazon expects to invest $5 billion in construction and provide up to 50,000 high-paying jobs. In addition to Amazon’s direct hiring and investment, construction and ongoing operation of Amazon HQ2 is expected to create tens of thousands of additional jobs and tens of billions of dollars in additional investment in the surrounding community. Under the direction of the City Manager’s Office, the Community Development Department has prepared a proposal on behalf of the City of Bakersfield. As you may be aware, this project and their locational process have generated submissions from all over the U.S. Many of those submissions will offer incentives not available to our situation. We felt our particular and unique advantages should be articulated and put forward. The thought processes involved will have applicability to other opportunities in the future. Thanks to the Community Development team for the special effort on this! The attached Proposal and Cover Letter was submitted to Amazon on October 19th, 2017.

  • 4.2 Aesthetics
    METROPOLITAN BAKERSFIELD METROPOLITAN BAKERSFIELD GENERAL PLAN UPDATE EIR 4.2 AESTHETICS This section evaluates the visual and aesthetic setting of Metropolitan Bakersfield and assesses the potential for visual impacts with implementation of the Metropolitan Bakersfield General Plan Update. Where potentially significant impacts are identified, General Plan goals and policies are referenced and mitigation measures are provided, where necessary, to reduce these impacts to a less than significant level. ENVIRONMENTAL SETTING Metropolitan Bakersfield includes the City of Bakersfield, its designated sphere of influence and contiguous properties located in the unincorporated portions of Kern County. The area covers approximately 408 square miles and is characterized by a core of urban and suburban land use types that were developed along the principal north-south arterial, of the Central Valley, Highway 99, and the Kern River. The core area is generally surrounded by low intensity agriculture, oil production and open spaces in which small communities historically developed as agricultural centers. In recent years, greater development has occurred in the northwest and southwest portions of the community. Metropolitan Bakersfield has developed in response to market pressures, availability of land for development and accessibility of that land to transportation systems and infrastructure. Development in the past has occurred in the absence of a strategy or program regarding urban design, as well as without concern for open space areas or public viewsheds. Downtown Bakersfield was physically and functionally identifiable as the principal center of the southern San Joaquin Valley for many years. The outward growth of development, including mid-rise structures and high activity areas has eroded this identity of downtown Bakersfield.
