RISK MANAGEMENT / HUMAN RESOURCES DIVISION
Risk Management COVD-19 has created many new challenges, including the safety protocols put in place at home and in business. The City has worked hard in creating processes that assist in keeping the public and employees safe. Currently employees are required to check into a self-check health station upon arrival at their work site. They answer a series of health questions, as well as take their temperature with an infrared thermometer. If the employee is not demonstrating symptoms, they then log their “normal” status on a spread sheet. We have put these steps in place to ensure that employees are not coming into the work place with any symptoms. We have also set up sanitizing stations and are requiring employees to wear masks while indoors in any shared spaces. The public entering City Hall and other City offices will also find COVID based practices in place, including signs requiring masks, social distancing markers, hand sanitizing stations, and restrooms that are currently closed to the public. We will continue to provide safety information and general best practices during the COVID-19 pandemic. City employees are encouraged to maintain a social distance of 6 feet between themselves and anyone not in their household, to practice good hand washing technique by using soap and water for at least 20 seconds and to wash frequently and after being in public or touching surfaces. Hand sanitizer can be used for those who don’t have direct access to soap and water. There was one new Worker’s Compensation claim filed as of June 1, 2020 and no (0) new tort claims filed as of June 1, 2020. The City currently has 6 open claims. The Civil Action claim is
Consent Calendar Item 2 Page 2 of 3 ongoing and the appointed attorney continues to oversee City representation. There was one (1) incident report regarding personal property received in May.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
Fiscal Year 2019-20 Financial Statement Audit: July 1 signaled the start of the new fiscal year for the City. As such, staff is working on closing the previous fiscal year and preparing for the City’s annual audit. For the third consecutive year, the Cities auditor will be Michael O’Connor from R.J. Ricciardi, Inc., CPA. In the past Michael and his staff planned to come on site for a week to conduct interim audit work during the month of August. However, as with everything lately due to COVID-19, this process will most likely be changing this year. Staff will be attempting to perform a large majority of this work electronically over email in order to limit the amount of time the auditor will need to spend on site. Staff will be preparing for this new process over the course of the next couple of months by preparing the necessary reconciliations, reports, adjustments and backup information that is required during the audit process. Having these documents ready should provide for a smooth audit process.
New Fiscal Year: As mentioned above the City’s fiscal year ended on June 30 and the new fiscal year began on July 1. Staff has been busy ensuring all the year-end processes go smoothly. Although this is the first year performing year end duties out of our new financial software system I am pleased to announce that no issues arose. The year-end process entails running many reports, making appropriate adjustments, soft closing periods, and ensuring all invoices for the 2019-20 period are paid before the end of August.
The new fiscal year also meant calculating and updating payroll numbers to reflect the new fiscal year 20-21 rates including; pay (employees cost of living adjustment), CalPERS pension plans (increase to the normal cost rate as dictated by CalPERS) and other benefits (primarily increases to medical amounts). This is a time intensive process but the Payroll and Benefits Administrator has been working diligently to accomplish these tasks on time and accurately and should be commended for her hard work.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
Director’s Report
The Parks & Recreation office re-opened to the public on 6/8, taking all of the necessary safety precautions (guided by County Public Health) in order to allow citizens in-person access to services from the department. Both the City and the Rohner Community Recreation and Park District (RCRPD) were notified by California State Parks of their Proposition 68 per capita grant award in the amount of $177,952 per entity. Both the RCRPD Board and the Parks & Recreation Commission will discuss the best use of their funds in the coming months, and identify projects that will expand and enhance parks & recreation opportunities in Fortuna and within the RCRPD boundaries. Grant criteria includes: funds must be used for acquisition and/or development, grant applications are due 6/30/2021, and projects must be completed by 3/31/2025. Additionally, if the location of the project is located within a “severely disadvantaged community”, a 20% grant match will not be required. The City established an agreement with PG&E to rent the Firemen’s Pavilion in the event of a Public Safety Power Shutoff (PSPS). In case of a PSPS event, citizens will be able to utilize the facility to re-charge devices and receive a multitude of essential needs. A temporary automatic generator and new ADA compliant front entry doors will be installed in July at PG&E’s expense.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
The Fortuna Police Department (FPD) reminds the public that crime statistics and information on calls for service can be found at forpd.crimegraphics.com.
The City of Fortuna has a very motivated and professional police department. The officers and staff provide excellent service to the community and have a very positive outlook, which is revealed through our collaborative relationship with the community. Problem resolution and community oriented policing continue to be the benchmark for service to this community.
Staffing levels remain at the allocated level with no one off duty due to illness or other unforeseen reasons. COVID-19 has not been an issue within the agency and employee temperatures are taken at the beginning of each work shift.
FPD Community Services Officers (CSO) are continuing the enforcement of downtown parking. Approximately 16 parking citations were issued during the month of June as compared to 17 parking citations that were issued during June of 2019. 28 total parking citations have been issued since May 1st 2020. The enforcement efforts have resulted in continued compliance.
Consent Calendar Item 6 Page 1 of 2 Complaints regarding transient activity in the River Walk (Alamar Way) area have surfaced. The police department is spearheading a plan of action to proactively address the issues at hand and are working with the primary complainant – Redwood River Walk Hotel, to reach a solution.
The FPD currently has two Police Trainees assigned to the Field Training Program who have recently graduated the College of the Redwoods Police Academy. Officer Burley and Officer Lewallen are being trained and mentored by Field Training Officer’s and are in the process of learning new skill sets to prepare them for their respective roles within the patrol division.
COVID-19 compliance continues to be good with businesses. Businesses are required to enforce social distancing and the wearing of face masks by the employees and customers. Citizens should prepare for the possibility of stricter guidelines if COVID-19 statistics increase.
The transition to the Patrol Operations Division (POD) building continues to be a work in progress. The pool has been drained and staff are very excited to see continued improvement on the new police department. The POD building has increased morale among staff members and has become an issue that department personnel remain passionate about. Officers and staff are motivated and looking forward to the completion of the POD project in order to have the entire office under one roof again. I would encourage any remaining City Council members who have not toured the POD building to do so if desired in order to develop a true understanding of the scope of the project.
Officers and staff continue to review department policy, weekly. Policies of greater importance will be reviewed bi-annually to insure each member has a working knowledge of policy and expectations.
During the month of June 2020, the FPD handled 1,831 calls for service of which 591 of the incidents were officer initiated. 72 total arrests were made during the month of June including 15 felony arrests and 57 misdemeanor arrests in total. 75 total citations were issued. For comparison, June 2020 statistics are consistent with June 2019 statistics and there is little variation. These comparable statistics are important in determining current crime trending as it pertains to COVID-19 considerations. The total activity level for FOPD has increased over the previous month.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
Deputy Director Public Works
Staff is maintaining a modified work schedule in some divisions of Public Works crews to separate as much as possible due to the recent Covid-19 situation. Due to the nature of the duties of Public Works employees, it is difficult to socially distance, however staff is avoiding this type of work as much as possible. We will continue to work on our infrastructure, respond to emergencies and do our regular maintenance during this event.
Pressure Zone 4/6 Intertie Project This water zone intertie construction contract was approved at the regular Council meeting on May 18, and the contract paperwork is in process. W. John Gray was the awarded contractor and construction is anticipated later this summer, when the ground is dry enough to complete the work. A preconstruction meeting is scheduled for July 7 at which time the schedule will be narrowed down. Staff and the contractor will communicate with the property owner (McLean Foundation) prior to starting any work.
Hillside Creek Flood Control Project Staff is working with our Engineering Consultant to finalize the Map Revision and submit to FEMA for review and to remap the floodplain, which will be the final step to remove properties from the floodplain and remove the need to pay flood insurance. Staff has requested $35,500 from Humboldt County to complete these final steps. The account being requested from the County is from the Countywide Flood Control District, of which a portion is located in the City and qualifies for the request of these funds.
Wastewater Anaerobic Digester Maintenance Project Staff help a preconstruction meeting with its consulting engineers as well as the contractor (Synagro) on July 2 for the cleaning portion of the project with will allow for the digester to be inspected and recommended coating specs will be developed. This project has already included significant work for wastewater treatment staff to manage the materials at the plant as the digester
Consent Agenda Item 7 Page 1 of 6 is being prepared to be down for this maintenance project. The anticipated work will be performed this summer. Countywide Accelerated Cure Slurry Seal Project Staff organized a Zoom pre-construction meeting with all of the other agencies and with Dryco Inc. to kick off the scheduling and make sure all administrative items are being addressed. Tentatively Fortuna's projects which include the Riverlodge, Rohner Park (Park Street and the loop) as well as multiple other locations throughout town will be completed the first of second week of August. Vehicular access to Rohner Park will not be allowed for one day (Date TBD) to complete the work as quickly as possible.
Water Well 5 Replacement The bid documents will be released in late July and the project will occur this fall. This well has been under producing and will be replaced in 2020.
PGE 12th Street Utility Undergrounding Project AT&T and Suddenlink is planned begin their work for communications expected to be finished winter of 2020. Two final street lights will be installed once the communication lines are removed.
Deputy City Engineer
NPDES Wastewater Compliance Project (Wastewater Treatment and Disposal Upgrades) The project CEQA document was adopted in June and the final grant deliverables have been submitted to the Regional Board. The City is working now to close out the planning grant and receive final reimbursement. On July 7, the City released a Request for Proposals for professional services for the final designs and permitting for the entire wastewater compliance project, including the disposal system and treatment system designs. Proposals are due in mid-August and staff is expecting to have a consultant on board and for project work to resume in September.
Jameson Creek Fish Passage Improvement and Culvert Replacement Project (Culvert Replacement and Channel Restoration) Project work is progressing nicely and Mercer-Fraser is working efficiently. To date, the downstream portion of the channel has been completed and the majority of the excavation has been completed. The remainder of July work will include the channel rock work on the upstream side of the project, and the downstream retaining wall. This will lead to box culvert installation and backfill for the majority of August, and roadway restoration in early to mid-September.
HSIP – Citywide Striping and Unsignalized Intersection Improvements (Striping and Flashing Pedestrian Crosswalks) The project has been substantially completed. Currently, the contractor is working to tidy-up punch list items including some minor cleanup. The project was completed with a budget surplus that will allow the City to install an additional RRFB Enhanced Crosswalk, which staff and our consultants are working to coordinate via a contract change order. The enhanced crosswalk will be located at the intersection of Newburg and Lawndale, and will connect the new sidewalk work done along Lawndale to the elementary school.
SRTS – South Fortuna Elementary (Sidewalks, Bike Lanes, School Circulation Improvements) The project is approximately seventy percent complete. The work completed to date includes the majority of the sidewalk installation along Summer Street and Lawndale Drive, and the new
Consent Agenda Item 7 Page 2 of 6 concrete work on the western parking lot of South Fortuna Elementary. The remaining work includes upgrades to the eastern parking lot at the school, striping, signage, and seal coating. The project is still scheduled to be completed before the potential start of school at the end of August.
Development and Conditional Use Permit Reviews Engineering staff have been involved in a number of development reviews over the past month, most notably including: The White Circle/Norcal Autobody Subdivision o Minor construction activity began on this project in April. Twin Creeks Estates near Redwood Way: o The contractor is working on road fill and water line installation. Avery Court Subdivision o Contractor is installing water and sanitary sewer, will begin curb and grading soon. ACG Subdivision (Smith Lane) Tanferani Subdivision (Alamar Way)
Utilities Division- Utility Superintendent
During the month of June, the Utilities Division answered 107 service calls marked 102 USA’s. We assisted the contractor on the Jameson Creek Project with water and sewer bypass. We assisted the Wastewater Treatment Division with the maintenance of the primary and secondary clarifiers. Rodded the hotspot list and tested hydrants and backflows. We performed the following repairs: Replaced the service line on N Street Fixed a water leak and replaced 3” meter on Riverwalk Drive Repaired water leak at Rohner Park Replaced hydrant on River Ranch Road Bore for and installed new service and meter on Drake Hill Road Replace service line on Sunny Heights Drive Replaced three service lines in alley of 1505 Main Street Replaced angle valve on Newberg Road
Water Treatment/Wastewater Division- Chief Plant Operator
Notable projects/meetings: A Tesco technician arrived mid-month to finish the Astor and Rundell lift station communication upgrade project. He also reprogrammed the flowmeter at the Home Ave booster pump station to improve flow and pressure surging issues. The Streets crew assisted with antenna-mounting at the WWTP. Astor and Rundell lift stations are now fully incorporated into the SCADA system and functioning properly. This CIP project is complete. The digester maintenance project is well underway. Staff opened a gate valve between the Side-stream and Oasis tanks, changed existing fine-bubble membrane diffusers for coarse bubble ones in the Side-stream tank, and then activated the aerobic digester. The anaerobic digester was taken offline. After sufficient time for it to stop producing gas, staff began draining it and removing solids through
Consent Agenda Item 7 Page 3 of 6 the belt filter press. The City’s part in the process is ahead of schedule. Synagro should be onsite in July for ultimate cleaning and inspection. Staff rehabilitated the WWTP front gate area by removing old, overgrown vegetation, replacing the weed barrier, and filling it back in with decorative rocks. Plans are to re-plant with a tree and other, decorative vegetation, and paint the lettering in the near future. Treatment Plant Staff went back to normal working hours early in the month and instituted a program of self-monitoring temperature checks to ward off any potential Covid-19 exposure.

Staff drained and cleaned two plant process basins for seasonal flows and preventive maintenance tasks: a primary clarifier and an aeration basin. The Utilities crew assisted in removing scum from the secondary clarifier with their Vaccon. Mercer-Fraser hauled in 10 K-rails to line up along the fencing near the compost operations. This will protect the fence from loader activity. Staff cleaned out the WWTP grit channel and replaced its plastic wear shoes and rails. Advanced Security installed a back-up battery power supply in the WWTP chemical storage room. This will prevent nuisance alarms when the power blinks out, which was indicating a false Cl2/SO2 leak alarm each time this occurred. Consent Agenda Item 7 Page 4 of 6 Staff cleaned magnetic contactors in the MCC buckets for the aeration blowers’ controls. Water Treatment The following table and charts show June water production figures as compared to the previous year, the previous month, and the benchmark month of July 2013.

Two bull pine trees were removed from the water well site by a tree removal company. One of these trees was dead, and the other hung dangerously low over fiber optic lines. Staff assisted by removing fencing at the site. Staff continued filling Vancil reservoir to test for leaks. The test was deemed complete at just over half full. The maximum measured leak rate was 1.3 gpm, Consent Agenda Item 7 Page 5 of 6 which is a vast improvement on previous repairs, and constitutes an acceptable level of loss. Staff then began draining and pumping out the reservoir in order to conduct the proper, AWWA standard of disinfection. This project should conclude in July, at which point the reservoir will be in service at full level.
General Services and Streets - General Services Superintendent
During the month of June, staff painted traffic markings on the City’s roads. School Street and the Campton Heights area had white paint applied at the intersections. Staff applied yellow paint in the school zone areas.
With the continual growing of grasses, weeds, and brush, the staff continue to mow and weed eat along the shoulders and the ditch lines along the City’s streets. The use of traffic control measures were implemented for the safety of vehicle and pedestrian traffic in most areas.
Staff assisted the Fortuna Police Department in securing a residence from transients in the Ross Hill area.
Staff assisted the Utility Superintendent, to empty the pool and spa at the Patrol Operations Division (POD), which was formally Eureka Physical Therapy.
Staff installed a remote controlled light switch to operate the overhead lights in the council chambers of City Hall.
Staff placed large rocks on a pedestrian pathway to discourage the use of off road vehicles between a City and private street.
Other tasks completed during the month of June, included marking Underground Service Alerts (USA’s), filling potholes with temporary asphalt mix, street sign repair and replacement, removal of trash and debris from under bridges (resulting from transient camps and road side dumping), removal of graffiti, sorting and recycling batteries from the collection bin at City Hall, restocking mitt gloves and empting garbage cans at the Dog Park, grinding and paving with hot mix asphalt on small portions of the City’s roads, removal of yard sale signs off utility poles, as well as the City wide street sweeping program.
General Service’s staff is available and responsive to the citizens of Fortuna’s request as they arise.

SUBJECT: Approve the Annual Property Tax Assessment for Wright Storm Water Detention Basin Maintenance District
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Approve the 2020-21 Property Tax Assessment for the Wright Storm Water Detention Basin Maintenance District.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
The Wright Storm Water Detention Basin Maintenance District was formed by Council Resolution 2010-12 in February 2012 to support the annual operations and maintenance of the Storm Water Detention Basin. The maintenance district serves Lots 1 through 10 of the Wright subdivision. All 10 lot owners will be assessed the levy. The Fee will change if the service area is enlarged to include additional parcels or if parcels within the the service area are further subdivided or developed with more than one single family residence. In either case, the yearly user fee will be reapportioned appropriately.
Staff has estimated that the assessment for the 2020-21 fiscal year should be $181.80 per parcel, which represents a decrease of $0.20 (twenty cents) from last year’s assessment.
Staff has included a copy of the rate calculation for your review.

SUBJECT: Professional Services Contract Amendment for Digester Maintenance Project
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Review staff presentation and report for an amendment to the approved amount for Professional Services for the Digester Maintenance Project (CIP# 9975).
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
In November of 2019, Council authorized a contract amount of $75,000 with SHN/Jacobs for professional services for the project management, digester cleaning and inspection, digester coating project engineering design, and construction engineering services (optional and included) for the Digester Maintenance Project.
Due to the unique environment of working within a digester, the professional services team will need to rent explosion proof scaffolding, lighting and fans, please see attached for a breakdown of these costs.
The costs are still within the anticipated budget, however it is determined that the rental of this equipment is best suited to be included in the contract with SHN/Jacobs.
A copy of the proposal from SHN/ Jacobs (attachment A) is included with this staff report and includes a cost breakdown. The scope of services, schedule and fee estimate may be slightly different in the final contract as the project develops, due to the unknowns of what may or may not need repair upon further inspection. The project is anticipated to be completed in four months, and SHN/ Jacobs is ready to begin as soon as they receive a Notice to Proceed.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
This project is being funded with Sewer Reserve Fund 560. It is budgeted in the FY 2020/2021 CIP (CIP# 9975) for $500,000.

Subject: Proposed Scope of Work and Costs for Phase 2 of the City of Fortuna’s Digester Maintenance Project (CIP#9975)
Dear Kevin:
As we discussed, the SHN/Jacobs team is presenting this scope of work and fee proposal for the City of Fortuna (City) Digester Maintenance Project at the Tom Cooke Wastewater Treatment Plant.
Scope of Work Task 1.0 Project Management, Meetings, and Coordination Plan and execute the project as described herein. This task includes the following project management work activities: • Manage the scope, schedule, quality, and budget of the project. • Prepare and submit a monthly narrative report and invoice.
Assumptions • Original CAD drawings of the digesters will be provided by the City. (done)
Deliverables • A monthly progress report and invoice.
Costs • The cost for Task 1.0 is estimated to be $7,134.
Task 2.0 Digester Cleaning and Inspection Task 2.3 Digester Inspection SHN/Jacobs structural, welding, and corrosion engineers will visually inspect the floating cover steel from the inside of the tank, which will include the domed roof, vertical skirt, and the support trusses.
CIVIL ENGINEERING • ENVIRONMENTAL SERVICES • GEOSCIENCES • PLANNING • SURVEYING Kevin Carter Proposed Scope of Work and Costs for Phase 2 of the City’s Digester Maintenance Project (CIP#9975) July 1, 2020 Page 2
SHN/Jacobs structural/welding engineer will assess both the overall structural integrity and the condition of the welds. SHN/Jacobs corrosion specialist will assess the condition of the base metal (to the extent possible) and the condition of the metal coating system.
SHN/Jacobs inspectors will mark areas that require welded-on patches or coating repair. Markings will be applied physically on the digester skirt metal and on the drawings.
SHN/Jacobs will procure support structure (scaffolding), lighting, and air movement equipment for internal tank inspections.
Assumptions In conducting the inspection, SHN/Jacobs assumes: • Visual inspection and metal thickness measurements of floating cover steel will focus on the vertical skirt steel and support truss steel. • City staff will provide access to the extent possible by opening access hatches and roof access hatches. • Scaffolding will be onsite for up to 1 month.
Deliverables • Daily diaries with photos and marked up record/shop drawings resulting from inspection indicating areas that need to be repaired.
Cost • The cost for Task 2.3 is estimated to be $92,315 including $62,573 for support structure, lighting, and air movement equipment.
2.3.1 Ultrasonic Thickness (UT) Inspection SHN/Jacobs will determine the number of metal thickness measurements to be included in the Inspection Plan, balancing the risk of collecting too few measurements and failing to obtain a representative sample, versus the cost of taking many measurements. SHN/Jacobs will use staff experience to guide the City in making this determination.
The UT inspector will take steel thickness measurements as outlined in the inspection plan. Measurements will be spot checks of the vertical skirt and support trusses that can be reached; the domed roof thickness will not be measured).
Assumptions For the purpose of developing this scope, it is assumed that the City will provide pressure washing of areas needing to be inspected to the satisfaction of the UT inspection specialist. It is assumed that sand/ice blasting will not be required to conduct visual inspection by SHN/Jacobs staff and that accurate steel thickness measurements can be made by the UT inspector without additional cleaning.
\\eureka\projects\2020\020006-Ftna-Digester\PUBS\Agr\20200701-Ftna-Digester-Phase2-SOW-Fees.docx Kevin Carter Proposed Scope of Work and Costs for Phase 2 of the City’s Digester Maintenance Project (CIP#9975) July 1, 2020 Page 3
• The SHN/Jacobs team assumes that approximately 100 skirt steel thickness measurements, and 25 support truss thickness measurements will be taken. Additional readings will be taken in areas found to have reduced base metal thickness, to identify the extent of the steel loss, if possible. If the required number of thickness measurements exceeds the allowance budget, an amendment to the contract will be required.
Deliverables • Metal thickness estimates from UT measurements from UT inspection.
Cost • The cost for Task 2.3.1 is estimated to be $2,530.
3.0 Digester Coating Project Engineering Design SHN/Jacobs will document the findings of the inspection in an evaluation and recommendation report. The report will include a compilation of digester inspection methodologies, results, discussion, conclusions, and recommendations. A draft report will be submitted to the City and reviewed during a conference call. Review comments will be incorporated and submitted to the City as a final report.
In developing the draft report, costs will be estimated for three options including: • Maintenance metal repair and recoating of poor areas identified for spot repair. • Maintenance metal repair and complete restoration/recoating of entire inside of steel floating cover, including a sub-option of additional restoration and replacement of all ancillary items to provide a completely restored and refurbished floating cover system (roller and guide replacement or refurbishment, top gas withdrawal hose replacement with longer hoses, assessment and upgrade of other miscellaneous components such as flame arrestors, hatches, instrumentation, etc.). • Conversion to a fixed cover including associated mechanical, piping, and instrumentation changes.
To develop the cost of converting to a fixed cover, SHN/Jacobs will screen options consisting of converting the existing floating cover to a fixed cover, replacing the floating cover with a new metal fixed cover, and replacing the existing steel floating cover with a new concrete fixed cover. Based on experience from other projects, findings from the site-specific assessment, and review of existing information (such as, record drawings, shop drawings, local codes, etc.); SHN/Jacobs will work with City staff to select one of these three cover conversion/replacement options to carry forward.
The technical benefits of each option will be documented, and the analysis will be compiled into a benefit to cost format for each option. These results will then be presented to City staff to aid in developing recommendations that are endorsed by the project team.
\\eureka\projects\2020\020006-Ftna-Digester\PUBS\Agr\20200701-Ftna-Digester-Phase2-SOW-Fees.docx Kevin Carter Proposed Scope of Work and Costs for Phase 2 of the City’s Digester Maintenance Project (CIP#9975) July 1, 2020 Page 4
The report will include written specifications for recoating and annotated record drawings showing repair types and locations, and a stamped design drawing with details for the metal skirt repair and recoating work.
The report will identify the preferred project delivery/contracting method for implementing the recommended repairs and/or improvements.
This scope does not include work to design a new digester cover if the City decides to pursue that course of action.
Assumptions • Cost estimates for the digester options will be Class 5 level of detail/accuracy as outlined by the Association for the Advancement of Cost Engineering (AACE). In providing opinions of cost, financial analyses, economic feasibility projections, and schedules for the project, SHN/Jacobs has no control over cost or price of labor and materials; unknown or latent conditions of existing equipment or structures that may affect operation or maintenance costs; competitive bidding procedures and market conditions; time or quality of performance by operating personnel or third parties; and other economic and operational factors that may materially affect the ultimate project cost or schedule. Therefore, SHN/Jacobs makes no warranty that the City’s actual project costs, financial aspects, economic feasibility, or schedules will not vary from SHN/Jacobs's opinions, analyses, projections, or estimates. • Deliverables will be submitted in PDF format by email. • SHN and Jacobs project managers will attend 2-hour review meeting in person; the structural engineer, corrosion specialist, and project engineers will participate by phone. • One consolidated set of review comments will be provided on the draft deliverable. • Technical specification will cover coating, and technical drawings will show the extent of repair and rehabilitation work. If a new digester cover is required/preferred, additional scope will be required to develop design documents for that improvement.
Deliverables • Draft 90-percent evaluation and recommendation report. • Final 100-Percent Evaluation and Recommendation Report.
○ Drawings, technical specifications, and cost estimates to be included in evaluation and recommendation report.
Cost • The cost for Task 3.0 is estimated to be $14,373.

Basis of Design Scope and Fee Development This scope of work and fee proposal are based on the following assumptions: 1. Proposed schedule assumes on-time review of submittal deliverables. SHN/Jacobs is not responsible for delays due to City circumstances. 2. Out-of-scope items to be negotiated and performed on an additional time-and-expenses basis to be agreed upon in advance by SHN/Jacobs and Client. 3. SHN/Jacobs will only provide technical specifications for digester coating and cleaning, not to include any Division 0 or 1 or other specifications for the Digester Maintenance Project. 4. The technical drawings will follow SHN and Jacobs CAE/CAD standards. AutoCAD software will be used to develop the drawings. Final drawings stamped and signed by registered California professional engineers will be provided in PDF format. If the City prefers to use its own format, additional work based on time and expenses may be required to reconcile formats. 5. The specifications and technical drawings will be based on the federal, state, and local codes and standards in effect on the effective date of the authorization to proceed. Any changes in these codes may necessitate a change in scope. 6. The City will provide PDF files of all existing plant construction drawings. These drawings will be considered record drawings and, the City warrants the accuracy of these drawings. When there are conflicts or uncertainty, SHN/Jacobs will provide the City notice of the issue so that the City can attempt to correct the information.
Costs The following table summarizes our proposed scope of work tasks, work descriptions, and associated costs for performing services on a time-and-expenses basis.

SUBJECT: Authorize the City Manager to Sign and Enter into a Professional Services Contract for a “Building Homes and Jobs Act” (SB2) Planning Grant
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Receive staff presentation and recommendation and authorize the City Manager to sign and enter into a Professional Services Contract with Planwest Partners, Inc. for SB2 planning activities in the amount of $160,000.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
On July 1, 2019, the City Council authorized submittal of an SB2 planning grant to the State Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) in the amount of $160,000. The grant was awarded by HCD to the City on February 24, 2020. The purpose of the SB2 grant is to improve processes, update codes, and implement other activities that facilitate housing. The planning activities in the City’s SB2 grant including the following programs:
Update of the City’s improvement standards and specifications, adoption of “by- right” multifamily zoning standards, update accessory dwelling unit standards, infrastructure provision and financing opportunities analysis, employee housing code, design review guidelines, and GIS layers update.
These projects are discussed in detail in the consultant’s attached scope.
At the close of the Request for Proposals (RFP) period, the City received proposals from four consultants, Planwest Partners, GHD, LACO, and SHN. Each proposal was evaluated and scored by a four-person panel including the City’s Planning and Engineering staff. All of the proposals were responsive and qualified, but Planwest had the highest score from each of the panelists, and they demonstrated the greatest level of project understanding and readiness to carry out each of the project components. As an additional benefit, although not part of the project scoring, their proposal includes several tasks that will be subcontracted to a local Fortuna-based engineering firm and therefore some of the project cost will stay in the local community.
A copy of the Planwest’s Scope of Services for the SB2 Implementation Project is included as Exhibit A. A copy of the itemized fee estimate for the project is included as Exhibit B.
Business Agenda Item B Page 1 of 2
Based on the project timeline, work will commence in August 2020. Grant close-out is June 2022.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
All of the consulting tasks related to the SB2 planning activities will be funded with HCD grant funds in the amount of $160,000. The total proposed fee by Planwest is time and materials with an amount not to exceed $160,000.

We recently prepared/assisted with housing element updates for the Cities of Ferndale, Eureka, and Point Arena. Through these updates we became intimately familiar
City of Fortuna Proposal Page | 1 SB2 Planning Grant Programs Implementation Planwest Partners Inc.
with State requirements and planning priorities related to housing development. We worked directly with HCD staff during housing element preparation for Ferndale and Point Arena and are assisting Ferndale with SB2 implementation projects. Malex Consulting Rob Holmlund is owner of Malex Consulting and frequent collaborator with Planwest. Mr. Holmlund spent nine years with GHD (Winzler & Kelly) managing a wide range of local and out-of-the-area planning projects. His time at GHD provided him with a strong background in collaboratively merging engineering, GIS, and planning principles into well balanced projects that are well-received by the general public, the development community, and government entities. In 2014, Mr. Holmlund was recruited to the City of Eureka to serve as the Community Development Director. Within months of his appointment, the City merged Community Development, Economic Development, GIS, and Housing into the “Development Services Department” under his leadership. His first and most persistent goal over the following five years was to revolutionize the City of Eureka’s approach to development regulations and processes. Under Rob’s leadership, the City of Eureka adopted a very pro-development General Plan, a pioneering Housing Element, and a cutting-edge Zoning Code. Whereas the City’s previous General Plans had been largely identical to their predecessors (very minor “updates” to the previous versions), the City’s 2040 General Plan (adopted in 2018) was written entirely from scratch and emphasized modern approaches to city planning. The Eureka 2040 General Plan (including its Housing Element) is so fundamentally different from the previous versions that it was necessary to completely re-write the City’s entire zoning ordinance. While the initial approach was to modify the ordinance through substantial revisions, it eventually became evident that the City’s zoning regulations were primarily left-overs from the 1960s and were completely out-of-touch with modern conditions. In addition, consistent feedback from the community and local developers clearly indicated that the City’s zoning and development regulations were fundamentally anti-development and were substantially holding back the City. Accordingly, Rob lead a complete re-write of the City’s entire set of zoning regulations, which resulted in a 100% original document that did not carry over a single sentence from the old regulations. While this massive set of ordinances could have been brought to the Planning Commission and City Council in batches, Mr. Holmlund found it to be more efficient and effective to facilitate a series of joint Special Study Sessions leading up to the adoption of everything together as a unified whole. Eureka’s new code is a graphic-rich streamlined pro-development set of regulations customized to the unique setting of Eureka. With built-in and easy-to-use design standards (instead of ambiguous design guidelines), the code ensures quality and aesthetically-appealing development while making the process as straightforward and streamlined as State law allows. The regulations were drafted with robust public input, including substantial involvement from development stakeholders, including local architects, engineers, drafters, designers, builders, contractors, business owners, and property owners. Rob lead a series of joint special study sessions between the Planning Commission and City Council to inform the bodies of ongoing feedback from stakeholders, to receive feedback regarding early draft language, and to get their early buy-in to ensure a successful adoption of new regulations. After over seven special study sessions spanning a year-and-a-half, the Planning Commission unanimously recommended, and the Council unanimously adopted, regulations that were universally appreciated by staff and the development community. A testament to the document’s success is the fact that Eureka was averaging less than ten new housing units per year for ten consecutive years under the old regulations. Now, Eureka is averaging more than 60 new units per year with substantially more in the permitting pipeline. The lessons learned from Eureka’s successes will be applied to the Fortuna project.

II. SCOPE OF WORK A. APPROACH TO PROVIDING SERVICES
Overview of Strategic Approach to the Project Our approach to the project includes the following strategies that are built into our Scope of Work: • Reoccurring project management meetings every other week (typically ½ hour phone or video calls). • An early focus on the mapping and infrastructure analysis tasks. • Establishment of a stakeholder committee consisting of up to 12 individuals recommended by City staff, the Planning Commission, and/or City Council. The committee should include “frequent flyers” or the individuals that most frequently come to the counter at City Hall to engage in development in the City. Preferably, the committee will include a diversity of backgrounds, including small property owners, large property owners, contractors, designers/engineers, contractors, builders, etc. • A planned sequence of Special Study Sessions throughout the project timeline to ensure City Council buy in and approval • Arranging all Special Study Sessions with City Council to also include the Planning Commission to ensure alignment between the two bodies and to avoid project delays • A public workshop about a third of the way into the project to ensure alignment with community interests • Strategic alignment of all the tasks so that one comprehensive set of ordinance changes can be brought before the Planning Commission and the City Council for adoption • A schedule that prepares for final City Council adoption in early December of 2021 to ensure that sufficient time is allocated as a backup plan in case any of the scheduled hearings before the PC or CC are continued • A public meeting after final Council adoption to provide an educational event for the community that is intended to recruit property owners and developers to stimulate the development of new housing units
Project Staff Meetings As shown in the schedule in Appendix C, our approach to the project includes a re-occurring meeting every other week between the City’s Project Manager and the Planwest Project Manager (Vanessa Blodgett). In most cases these meetings will consist of a half-hour phone or video call intended to keep the project progressing and to retain a system of regular communication. At key points in the project (such as a few weeks prior to a public workshop), more extensive meetings are scheduled with key city staff and project specialists from the Planwest team.
Early Focus on the Mapping and Infrastructure Analysis Tasks As outlined in the schedule, the team’s approach to the project begins with a focused effort on the geographic components of the project, including data gathering, GIS mapping, infrastructure analysis, and improvement standards (Tasks 1, 4, and 7). At the project outset, the team will work closely with City planning staff and public works staff to better understand the underlying physical constraints that may be holding back housing development. This early geographic analysis will also identify underutilized areas of the City with great potential for further housing development. A major push will be made early in the project timeline to evaluate and enhance the City’s GIS assets. Working closely with City staff, the Planwest team will ensure that data that is modified or created will be meticulously organized and created in such a way that it will be compatible with the City’s other software systems. The data that will be evaluated, modified, and/or created will include: RHNA land inventory, affordable housing sites, vacant and underutilized parcel inventory, multifamily by-right development sites, and areas with development constraints (such as environmental, drainage, and infrastructure constraints), City limit boundary, parcels, subdivision layers, street centerlines, addresses points, utility assets and infrastructures, fire appurtenances, public safety and others. The suite of GIS data will be prepared in such a way that it will be easy to
City of Fortuna Proposal Page | 7 SB2 Planning Grant Programs Implementation Planwest Partners Inc.
upload onto the City’s website, easy to utilize by City staff when reviewing development projects, and easy to reference by City decision-makers.
As shown in the schedule, a substantial portion of the GIS mapping task (Task 7) will be completed in the first seven weeks of the project. During those same initial seven weeks, the team will invest concentrated effort into Tasks 1 and 4 to evaluate the City’s improvement standards and infrastructure constraints. This initial effort will include close collaboration with city staff (public works, engineering, building, and planning) to gain an understanding of how the City staff views the past and future of these types of standards. Ultimately, the City Council will want to know the community’s preferences, but the Planwest team recommends starting with a solid understanding of staff’s perspective.
With a fuller understanding of the geographic and physical infrastructure components of the project, we will initiate a detailed analysis of the City’s housing-related ordinances. This initial analysis will focus on preparing for a Special Study Session with the Planning Commission and the City Council. Focusing on these three tasks early in the project will also allow the team to work with City staff early to develop a range of concept graphics that can be refined throughout the life of the project.
Stakeholder Committee While there are likely hundreds of different individuals that submit permit applications to the City each year, it is also likely that the City has a handful of “frequent fliers” that work with City staff on a near weekly basis. These regular customers are the individuals with the most familiarity with the City’s regulations and processes. They are also likely the individuals that most frequently complain to City Council about burdensome regulations and unnecessary processes. These individuals are probably contractors, builders, engineers, architects, and property owners. They are the people that built a substantial portion of recently-constructed housing in the City and are the people that are likely to build a substantial portion of the City’s future housing. A primary component of Planwest’s approach to this project is to establish and utilize a committee of up to 12 individuals to serve as a Stakeholder Committee. Hopefully, the committee will consist of individuals identified by City staff, Planning Commission, and City Council as being either “frequent fliers” and/or individuals that have complained about City regulations/processes in the past. By involving people that have been frustrated, the project can neutralize their frustrations by making them meaningful participants in the solution. The committee should include the owner of a single-family residential parcel that can provide on-the-ground feedback regarding Accessory Dwelling Units. The committee should also include an engineer, drafter, and/or architect that can bring the perspective of a project representative. A small business owner and the owner of a small commercial property can provide some good balance to the committee. Finally, the committee definitely needs to include a few local contractors.
From direct experience, the Planwest team knows that working with such individuals to draft regulations can be challenging. However, the effort is certainly worth the outcome, which ultimately includes buy-in and support for the project from the very people that are most likely to complain to City Council. These individuals are people that are deeply invested in Fortuna and their feedback is priceless. Directly involving these individuals and making them deeply involved stakeholders ensures the project’s ultimate success and hastens the adoption of the ordinances
City of Fortuna Proposal Page | 8 SB2 Planning Grant Programs Implementation Planwest Partners Inc.
without difficult and budget-killing delays. Our approach is to meet with the Stakeholder Committee at least three times during the project lifetime.
One of the primary objectives of the committee will be to help the team find ways to eliminate or simplify discretionary processes and to vet early drafts of graphics, standards, and guidelines.
Special Study Sessions Another key strategic approach to the project includes a series of joint Special Study Sessions with the Planning Commission and City Council. Getting both bodies together simultaneously for a series of Study Sessions has several significant advantages. First, through our approach of actively promoting and advertising the Study Sessions as public meetings, we can get interested community members to come to the Study Sessions. This allows the public community, the Planning Commission, and the City Council to all receive a consistent and well-communicated message from staff and the consulting team regarding the objectives and options of the overall project. Second, by meeting together, the Planning Commission and City Council can openly communicate with one another in front of the public audience, which allows for a productively positive dialog regarding what everyone collectively wants. Third, in our experience, this format provides the Planning Commission to get in sync with the City Council, who will ultimately make the final decision. When the Planning Commission has the opportunity to participate in the Council’s study sessions, the Planning Commission is more likely to understand the City Council’s vision and to follow their lead. Recent projects in Arcata have failed because the Planning Commission repeatedly continued Public Hearings, effectively killing projects before they ever had a chance to get to the City Council for approval. Joint study sessions may have led to more successful outcomes. The best possible outcome at the end of the project is a single Planning Commission public hearing with a unanimous recommendation, followed by a City Council Public Hearing 1st Reading of the Ordinance, followed by unanimous adoption at a second City Council meeting. The primary objective of the Special Study Sessions (and the Stakeholder Committee) is to facilitate this optimal outcome.
The Planwest strategy is to hold four joint Special Study Sessions (SSS) throughout the life of the project, each of which is to include a robust and dynamic presentation outlining options, opportunities, stakeholder interests, public feedback, and staff recommendations. Each SSS will also include built-in opportunities for open dialog between the PC, the CC, and staff. Each session also includes public comment periods. Each SSS can range from one to three hours depending on staff preferences. The first SSS will occur earlier in the project timeline to open the dialog, provide an update regarding the Stakeholder Committee’s initial thinking, and to present staff’s early vision. The second SSS is scheduled to occur several weeks after a Public Workshop (see below) to provide the PC and CC with a early on-screen draft of many of the concept regulations developed up to that point. The public survey will close a week prior to the 2nd SSS and will provide useful community feedback. This second SSS is a critical point in the project and will finalize the ultimate direction of the project. The bulk of the final deliverables will be rapidly developed following the second SSS. The third SSS will occur eight weeks later to confirm the direction that the project is headed and to provide the PC and CC with some early content to vet. Eight weeks later, a first Public Draft of the final deliverables (organized as a single packet) will be presented to the City, followed by a 4th and Final SSS. During that final SSS, the PC and CC will receive a detailed presentation regarding the Public Draft and will provide final direction. Four weeks later, the final draft document will be submitted and reviewed one last time by the Stakeholder Committee prior to the Planning Commission Public Hearing.
City of Fortuna Proposal Page | 9 SB2 Planning Grant Programs Implementation Planwest Partners Inc.
Public Workshop #1 and Survey A Public Workshop will occur about one third of the way into the project. The Planwest approach is to heavily advertise and recruit the public to this workshop. If State restrictions related to the Corona Virus Pandemic limit the City’s ability to hold an in-person public meeting, Planwest is prepared to host a fully virtual Public Workshop. In either case, the target audience is to have at least fifty individuals present in the meeting, with over 100 people in attendance as the optimal goal. Planwest feels strongly that public meetings are only worth holding if a substantial number of people attend. The Planwest team has extensive experience facilitating and hosting highly successful and well-regarded public meetings. The Public Workshop will open with a dynamic presentation, include an interactive real-time survey (https://www.mentimeter.com/), and then transition to facilitated workstations with feedback posters. We propose that the workstations are hosted by members of the Stakeholder Committee and/or the Planning Commission. A public survey will also be announced at the Public Workshop and will be open for the following four weeks, closing just prior to the 2nd Special Study Session.
Unified Ordinance, PC Public Hearing, CC Public Hearing, and CC Adoption Following all of the above, a single set of final deliverables will be developed as a unified whole. While six of the seven tasks could be brought to the PC and CC as independent ordinances (or in batches), the Planwest strategy is to work with everything as a unified whole. This is more efficient and makes more strategic sense. In the end, all of the various components will work together and therefore need to be consistent and well-coordinated. By treating everything as a single packet, the project will be more successful and logically integrated. The later weeks of the project include a Planning Commission Public Hearing, City Council Public Hearing, and City Council adoption. Our strategy is to schedule all of this to be complete by the first week of December of 2021 to provide several weeks of extra time as a backup plan. However, we are confident that we can make this schedule because of how well structured the first ¾ of the project is arranged.
Final Public Workshop Following adoption by City Council, Planwest will host a final Public Workshop. The primary objective of the workshop is to provide an educational event for the community that is intended to recruit property owners and developers to create new housing units. The City of Eureka conducted a similar meeting after adopting the new code, which took the form of an “ADU Fair.” The City heavily advertised the event throughout all of the single-family residential zone districts, in the news, on the radio, on social media, and through other mediums. The City also sent promotional postcards to all of the owners of single-family properties. Held at Redwood Acres, the fair included home designers, architects, bankers, and contractors sequentially arranged in informational booths. Several booths were also hosted by City staff, including planners, city engineers, building staff, and public works staff. When homeowners arrived at the fair, they had the opportunity meet with City staff, learn about the allowances of their specific parcel, meet with designers that could help them envision an ADU, meet with bankers to help finance the ADU, and meet with contractors to plan for construction. The final Fortuna Public Workshop could take a similar form or could be entirely different. The nature of this final public workshop will be determined during the course of the project.
Other Potential Deliverables Depending on the interests of the City, the Planwest team is prepared to provide other creative deliverables within the proposed budget, scope, and schedule. These could include specialized City websites related to housing development regulations, promotional YouTube videos, enhanced graphics, interactive GIS web interfaces,
City of Fortuna Proposal Page | 10 SB2 Planning Grant Programs Implementation Planwest Partners Inc. customized phone apps, and other creative communication devices designed to stimulate housing development in Fortuna.
B. SCOPE OF WORK The scope presented below is consistent with the scope and budget outlined in the RFP. Prior to reading the content below, we recommend that you thoroughly review the “Approach” and “Schedule” sections above as those sections provide a necessary base understanding of how Planwest intends on pulling all of the following together.
Task 1 Improvement Standards and Specifications Update As outlined in the Approach and Schedule sections above, the Planwest team intends on tackling Tasks 1, 4, and 7 simultaneously at the very beginning of the project. The project will begin immediately with data gathering, GIS mapping, infrastructure analysis, and evaluations of improvement standards. In the very first weeks of the project, the team will review the City’s Improvement Standards and Specifications, including public works standards for utilities, roadways, pedestrian walkways, parking, and landscaping. Planwest recognizes that the Improvement Standards are a valuable planning tool to maintain community design, protect public health and safety, and to provide certainty to developers through consistency in the design and construction of public improvements. As indicated in the RFP, the City’s standards were last adopted in 1988 and are in needed of modernization. As was recently done in Eureka and Arcata, updated standards in Fortuna will ensure that the City’s standards are current and that they promote appropriate and wanted types of development in the City. The review will include roadway and pedestrian standards to consider if alternative local road sections should be adopted to offer alternative road design choices for a variety of different residential designs and alternative development projects (such as affordable housing projects, smaller single family lots, and private roads within planned developments). In addition, the team will work with City staff to review and amend public works improvements Code section (Title 16, Subdivisions) to ensure that it meets current legal requirements and standards. This task will benefit from the involvement of Ontiveros Engineering and K. Boodjeh Architects, who will collectively create modern graphics to complement the standards developed. These products will be consistent with and complementary to the Design Guidelines task below.
As requested in the RFP, the update process will include review of existing standards for appropriateness, conformance with the Fortuna General Plan, compliance with applicable local, State, and Federal requirements, and will consider additional road standards to support flexible residential design and encourage reduced construction costs for
City of Fortuna Proposal Page | 11 SB2 Planning Grant Programs Implementation Planwest Partners Inc.
affordable housing. The development of these standards will occur throughout the life of the project following feedback from the Stakeholder Committee, public meeting, public survey, and Special Study Sessions. The final product will be incorporated into a final packet for adoption by Council as described in the Approach and Schedule sections above. Once adopted, it is Planwest’s understanding that the updated Improvement Standards will be posted on the City’s website for use by the public and residential developers, printed and on display at City Hall, and utilized in pre- application project review meetings. As described above, depending on the interests of the City, the Planwest team is also prepared to provide other creative deliverables for displaying and communicating the standards. These could include specialized City websites, promotional YouTube videos, enhanced graphics, interactive GIS web interfaces, customized phone apps, and other creative communication devices designed to stimulate housing development in Fortuna. The Planwest team understands that the objective of the Improvement Standards is to: • Reduce the cost of housing development by providing clear standards for developers to rely on; • Streamline the review process by having standards that are applicable to each type of project and therefore less subject to the need for negotiation or late-stage changes; • Create more design flexibility by identifying a suitable range of options including road standards for multifamily and affordable housing projects; • Reduce development costs by providing narrow road options, streamlining development review by updating the municipal code to create clear submittal and processing requirements for private development public improvement plans.
The final deliverable for this task will be wrapped into the comprehensive packet taken to the Planning Commission for recommendation and eventually adopted by City Council.
Task 2 Multifamily Zoning Update Some people consider multifamily developments to be undesirable eyesores in a community. This is often because several unfortunate reasons, including: • Many multifamily developments over the past fifty years have been designed with little to no design requirements or design standards, allowing for large blank walls facing the street and blocky complexes that do not feel like natural extensions of the neighborhood in which they are placed; • A severe segregation of multi-family and single-family zones, leading to a monotonous string of similar apartment complexes along a single street; • Overly complex and restrictive permitting processes that limit the creativity that developers would otherwise apply to their projects; • A multi-decade trend towards the construction of low density single family housing and high density mid-rise housing, with little to no quality development in the “middle” of the spectrum (known as “Missing Middle Housing”).
City of Fortuna Proposal Page | 12 SB2 Planning Grant Programs Implementation Planwest Partners Inc.
Fortunately, there have been many high-quality multifamily projects in Fortuna that can serve as a guide to the future. In some cases, old large Victorian homes have been internally subdivided to create a multi-family home that appears to be single-family from the outside. In some cases, a single home can be converted into three or four units while retaining the quality exterior that is beloved by the community. In other cases, a multifamily development can be designed in such a way that a passerby may not notice that the structure is actually home to four different families because its design is well integrated into the neighborhoods. In Fortuna, much of the multifamily districts are consistently built-out with quality developments. However, the process for development could use an overhaul. The final deliverable for this task will be wrapped into the comprehensive packet taken to the Planning Commission for recommendation and eventually adopted by City Council.
As outlined in the RFP, the City currently requires a conditional use permit for multifamily developments with five or more units. Use permits are subject to approval by the Planning Commission at a noticed public hearing. This complex, time consuming, and expensive process is often disliked by the development community because the process does not come with a guarantee of success and often leads to what feels like arbitrary decisions. A good and simplified replacement for a CUP process is a clear set of reasonable design requirements with an administrative site plan review process. This can be particularly successful if the design requirements have built-in options that allow developers to select from a range of design options while guaranteeing the City and the residents of the neighborhood a minimal level of design quality.
A Zoning Code amendment will eliminate the use permit requirement by establishing standards for multifamily developments located in the City’s Residential Multifamily zones and adopting a site plan checklist for review by City staff. If the project site plan complies with all of the standards, then it would be approved by City staff. The site plan review process will promote greater certainty for the applicant, streamline the approval process for multifamily development, and accelerate housing unit production. The final deliverable for this task will be wrapped into the comprehensive packet taken to the Planning Commission for recommendation and eventually adopted by City Council.
Task 3 Accessory Dwelling Units The State recently passed a series of regulations that require local jurisdictions to permit ADUs. The State law has some relatively strict requirements while simultaneously granting local jurisdictions some flexibility and options for creativity. A substantial portion of Fortuna’s parcels consist of single-family housing zoning. The City could see a high-quality affordable housing boom if just 10% of those parcels were to construct ADUs. In fact, such an approach very well may be the best way for Fortuna to rapidly create a meaningful quantity of new housing units. Such an approach has the advantage of going largely unnoticed by the general populace, especially if good design standards are built into the system. The City infrastructure is already in place, no new parcels need to be developed, and
City of Fortuna Proposal Page | 13 SB2 Planning Grant Programs Implementation Planwest Partners Inc. existing property values can be enhanced. The building code allows units to be as small as 220 square feet, allowing for some very affordable units.
The team will work with City staff to update the City’s Zoning ordinance in order to address changes in State law related to Accessory Dwelling Units (Assemble Bill 2299 and Senate Bill 1069), and to respond to the affordable housing needs of the City by facilitating the development of ADUs, including consideration of “Junior Accessory Dwelling Units.” Specifically, the zoning code update would amend City Code Section 17.06.183 related to Second Dwelling Unit Regulations. The team will work with the City to prepare a handout for the public to clarify the process and options. As described above, depending on the interests of the City, the Planwest team is also prepared to provide other creative deliverables for displaying and communicating the standards. These could include specialized City websites, promotional YouTube videos, enhanced graphics, interactive GIS web interfaces, customized phone apps, and other creative communication devices designed to stimulate housing development in Fortuna.
The draft ADU ordinance and guidelines will be accompanied by a discussion addressing the following issues: • Discrepancies between existing regulations and those changes required by new State regulations; • New/amended definitions and development standards; • How to incorporate the new standards into the City’s existing development pattern; and • How to be user friendly and streamline the permit review process;
The Planwest team can also assist with the City with evaluating the potential of creating a pre-approved set of ADU plans. With K. Boodjeh Architects and Ontiveros Engineering on the team, it is well within the team’s capabilities to produce a few early draft sets of ADU plans that the City could provide for free to property owners interested in development of an ADU.
The Stakeholder Workshops, Public Meetings, Public Survey, and Special Study Sessions described under the Approach section above will provide a range of useful information regarding this task. Also note that the final Public Workshop (following adoption of new standards by City Council) is designed as an educational event for the community that is intended to recruit property owners and developers to create new housing units. This could, at least in part, take the form of an “ADU Fair” similar to the event held in Eureka in 2019. The Planwest team recommends (and is prepared to assist with) heavily advertising the event throughout all of the single-family residential zone districts, in the news, on the radio, on social media, and through other mediums. It is also recommended to send promotional postcards to all of the owners of single-family properties. The envisioned event would be held at the River Lodge (provided by the City) and should include home designers, architects, bankers, and contractors sequentially arranged in informational booths. Several booths should also be hosted by City staff, including planners, city engineers, building staff, and public works staff. When homeowners arrive at the fair, they will have the opportunity meet with City staff, learn about the allowances of their specific parcel, meet with designers that can help them envision an ADU, meet with bankers to help finance the ADU, and meet with contractors to plan for construction. The exact nature of this final public workshop will be determined during the course of the project. The final deliverable for this task will be wrapped into the comprehensive packet taken to the Planning Commission for recommendation and eventually adopted by City Council.

Task 4 Infrastructure Provision and Financing A frequently compliant of the development community is that government makes development too expensive through fees. On the other hand, the City must be able to cover the on-going expenses of providing public infrastructure and utility connections. The objective of this task is to find the best possible balance between these two factors. An initial strategy that will be evaluated is to identify ways that the City can minimize infrastructure costs for residential development by identifying infrastructure needs and available sources of funding for infrastructure improvements. The team will work with City staff to review the City’s existing infrastructure mapping for water, sewer, and storm drainage. Together, we will identify areas that are lacking in infrastructure, thereby causing constraints to residential development. Because affordable housing development can be particularly sensitive to such costs, the team will analyze existing and potential infrastructure financing measures for their ability to meet infrastructure funding programs to support improvement efforts. Working with the City, the team will also work with the Stakeholder Committee and staff to explore fee exemptions for affordable housing projects. We will also evaluate fee reductions for energy and water conservation measures are considered for new development. The update process will include review of existing standards, data collection, and meetings with City staff to identify preliminary deficiencies and local needs. The team will also evaluate potential budget implications to the City General Fund and other relevant City funds. The Stakeholder Workshops, Public Meetings, Public Survey, and Special Study Sessions described under the Approach section above will provide a range of useful information regarding this task. The final deliverable for this task will be wrapped into the comprehensive packet taken to the Planning Commission for recommendation and eventually adopted by City Council.
Task 5 Employee Housing This task will not be particularly complex or challenging as the City contains very few parcels that are effected. However, this is an important task and one that the State expects the City to complete. As outlined in the RFP, the objective of this task is to facilitate workforce housing by identifying and removing barriers to workforce housing. The Planwest team will facilitate this task in such as way as to ensure that the City to complies with Health and Safety Code Sections 17021.5 and 17021.6 while retaining the City’s character and interests. This includes ensuring that no conditional use permit, zoning variance, or other zoning clearance are required of employee housing if such requirements are not required of any other agricultural activity in the same zone. The team will ensure that the permitted occupancy in employee housing in an agricultural zone includes agricultural employees who do not work on the property where the employee housing is located. The team will work with City staff to review existing City Codes, the Fortuna General Plan, existing/proposed standards, and prepare draft Ordinance sections based on City’s needs and to comply with State law. The Stakeholder Workshops, Public Meetings, Public Survey, and Special Study Sessions described under the Approach section above will provide a range of useful information regarding this task. The final deliverable for this task will be wrapped into the comprehensive packet taken to the Planning Commission for recommendation and eventually adopted by City Council.
City of Fortuna Proposal Page | 15 SB2 Planning Grant Programs Implementation Planwest Partners Inc.
Task 6 Design Review Guidelines This tasks is a cornerstone of the other tasks and links them all. While the RFP calls for “Design Review Guidelines,” the Planwest team recommends that the City considers design standards instead. Planwest is qualified and prepared to provide either option to the City. The difference between guidelines and standards will be thoroughly reviewed, analyzed, and presented throughout the early stages of the project to ensure that the City selects the process that is best suited to the City’s goals. In drafting this proposal, we suspect that the City will ultimately prefer Design Standards over Design Guidelines as such an approach is more aligned with the City’s goals of simplifying the development process, eliminating discretionary reviews, streamlining development, and minimizing costs. Whereas the City currently requires a conditional use permit for multifamily developments with five or more units, the City is seeking to develop an administrative non-hearing site plan review process. The term “Design Guidelines” typically imply a guidance document that developers use to design a project and against which a discretionary body judges the project. Design Standards, on the other hand, imply a set of standards that a project simply must include in order to receive administrative (non-discretionary) approval. Such standards can be set up in such a way that all of the standards must be met or in such a way that only some combination of standards must be met. The City of Eureka recently adopted the later version, which provides much greater flexibility for the developer while still guaranteeing quality development for the City. The best format for such a system is in the form of a checklist, which is easy for a developer to use and easy for staff to evaluate. As the RFP indicates, the City is seeking an administrative site plan review process that consists of a checklist of pre-determined standards, providing greater certainty to multifamily developers and streamlining the approval process by eliminating discretionary public hearings. The Planwest team has extensive experience with very similar tasks and a successful track record implementing such systems.
The Planwest team understands that the objective of this task includes: • Both Design Guidlelines (or Design Standards) and a process for administering the standards • Policy language that is clear, easy to understand, and efficient to implement • Regulations that allow for flexibility and that promote private-sector innovation • A system that promotes efficient coordination between applicants, City staff, and (when necessary) the Planning Commission As described above, depending on the interests of the City, the Planwest team is also prepared to provide other creative deliverables for displaying and communicating the standards. These could include specialized City websites, promotional YouTube videos, enhanced graphics, interactive GIS web interfaces, customized phone apps, and other creative communication devices designed to stimulate housing development in Fortuna. The Stakeholder Workshops, Public Meetings, Public Survey, and Special Study Sessions described under the Approach section above will provide a range of useful information regarding this task. The final deliverable for this task will be wrapped into the comprehensive packet taken to the Planning Commission for recommendation and eventually adopted by City Council.
City of Fortuna Proposal Page | 16 SB2 Planning Grant Programs Implementation Planwest Partners Inc.
Task 7. GIS Layers Update As described above under Task 1, the Planwest team intends on tackling Tasks 1, 4, and 7 simultaneously at the very beginning of the project. The project will begin immediately with data gathering, GIS mapping, infrastructure analysis, and evaluations of improvement standards. At the project outset, the team will work closely with City planning staff and public works staff to better understand the underlying physical constraints that may be holding back housing development. This early geographic analysis will also identify underutilized areas of the City with great potential for further housing development. A major push will be made early in the project timeline to evaluate and enhance the City’s GIS assets. Working closely with City staff, the Planwest team will ensure that data that is modified or created will be meticulously organized and created in such a way that it will be compatible with the City’s other software systems. The data that will be evaluated, modified, and/or created will include: RHNA land inventory, affordable housing sites, vacant and underutilized parcel inventory, multifamily by-right development sites, and areas with development constraints (such as environmental, drainage, and infrastructure constraints), City limit boundary, parcels, subdivision layers, street centerlines, addresses points, utility assets and infrastructures, fire appurtenances, public safety and others. The suite of GIS data will be prepared in such a way that it will be easy to upload onto the City’s website, easy to utilize by City staff when reviewing development projects, and easy to reference by City decision-makers.
As shown in the schedule, a substantial portion of the GIS mapping task (Task 7) will be completed in the first seven weeks of the project. During those same initial seven weeks, the team will invest concentrated effort into Tasks 1 and 4 to evaluate the City’s improvement standards and infrastructure constraints. This initial effort will include close collaboration with city staff (public works, engineering, building, and planning) to gain and understanding of how the City staff views the past and future of these types of standards. Ultimately, the City Council will want to know the community’s preferences, but the Planwest team recommends starting with a solid understanding of staff’s perspective.
With a fuller understanding of the geographic and physical infrastructure components of the project, we will initiate a detailed analysis of the City’s housing-related ordinances. This initial analysis will focus on preparing for a Special Study Session with the Planning Commission and the City Council. Focusing on these three tasks early in the project will also allow the team to work with City staff early to develop a range of concept graphics that can be refined throughout the life of the project. As described above, depending on the interests of the City, the Planwest team is also prepared to provide other creative deliverables for displaying and communicating the GIS data. These could include specialized City websites, promotional YouTube videos, enhanced graphics, interactive GIS web interfaces, customized phone apps, and other creative communication devices designed to stimulate housing development in Fortuna.

CITY OF ARCATA West End Specific Plan - 2018 For the Arcata West End Specific Plan (WESP), Planwest Partners coordinated K. Boodjeh Architects in providing the planning and technical assistance for the City of Arcata in efforts to expand Arcata’s manufacturing sector with an implementable plan for capturing emerging manufacturing industry opportunities in the West End area. Deliverables for this project included Conditions and Constraints Reports, Needs Assessment Reports, Environmental Compliance Reports and a Final Plan Publication. The Conditions and Constraints Analysis included the review and documentation of environmental, infrastructure, physical and regulatory constraints of the project area, including environmentally sensitive habitat areas, geologic hazard evaluation, environmental contamination conditions, rights of way and easements and existing land use code. The Amenities and Code Amendments identified how the design concepts would be translated into zoning codes amendments to attract, secure and maintain targeted businesses. The West End Specific Plan is a comprehensive planning tool that evaluates future manufacturing opportunities, the barriers for manufacturing growth, and creates the planning framework for the West End / Aldergrove neighborhood.

Land Use Code Development Planwest assisted the City of Arcata with preparation of a comprehensive Land Use Code that included zoning regulations and land use and site development standards including subdivision, flood plain, grading and drainage, sign, historic preservation, hillside development standards, and processes for design review. This represented a substantial departure from the prior Land Use and Development Guide in that it added new development code provisions for the City (e.g. chapters on growth management and annexations, inclusionary zoning and affordable housing requirements, telecommunications facilities, and tree preservation and hazardous tree removal regulations). Planwest staff participated in Planning Commission and City Council study sessions that included a general overview of each article, discussion of the key draft Land Use Code articles, their relationship with the General Plan: 2020, and the inner-connection of various Draft LUC chapters and sections with one another. Planwest also prepared application forms, checklists and instruction materials for projects to be processed under the Land Use Code. This included handouts explaining subdivision of lands, special permit requirements, planned development permits, use permits, site development permits, and variances.

Malex Consulting
BUSINESS READY STUDY: EUREKA 2015 to 2016 Immediately upon starting with the City of Eureka, Mr. Holmlund prioritized the establishment of a new development-friendly culture. Mr. Holmlund acquired an CDBG grant to hire a consultant, evaluate the City’s development processes, and develop an entirely new approach to customer service. The project’s primary objective was to create an environment in which businesses can thrive and continue to contribute positively to Eureka’s job growth and local economy. Through business-owner focus groups, surveys, and individual interviews, dozens of actions were identified and implemented.
2040 GENERAL PLAN: EUREKA 2017 to 2019 Eureka’s first General Plan was adopted in the 1960s and immediately established a regulatory and permitting scheme that was unwelcoming and averse to development and growth. The subsequent versions in the 1980s and late 1990s continued that pattern. Accordingly, with City Council direction, Mr. Holmlund led the development and establishment of a new General Plan that embraced Eureka’s legacy as
A-3 the “big city” of California’s north coast. Through a dynamic public engagement process and an honest evaluation of City priorities, Eureka adopted a revolutionary new General Plan in late 2018.
ZONING CODE: EUREKA 2017 to 2019 As the General Plan Update was nearing completion, and following implementation of the Business Ready Study, it became evident that a mere update of the zoning code would be insufficient. Accordingly, Mr. Holmlund set into motion and oversaw the process of a complete 100% replacement of the City’s development regulations. Whereas the City’s best buildings (constructed prior to development codes) were considered too tall and too big by all previous Eureka codes the City now has an entirely new development code that incentivizes new buildings, businesses, and development.
ECONOMICS AND ARTS PLANS: EUREKA 2017 to 2019 Under Mr. Holmlund’s leadership, Eureka initiated and adopted a range of Economic Development Plans and strategies, including: an Economic Development Strategies Plan, an EDA-funded Business Incubator Study, a Community-Design-Charrette for City-owned properties, the Opera Alley Visioning Plan, and a City- wide Strategic Arts Plan. The first and last of these plans had the biggest impacts on Eureka and in a large- part stimulated the economic and cultural Renaissance currently being experienced in Eureka. The text of each of the above documents includes hyperlinks to the adopted final versions.
Ben Noble Arcata Local Coastal Program. Ben is currently assisting the City of Arcata to complete a comprehensive update to the City’s Local Coastal Program (LCP). The City’s goal is to adopt a focused and streamlined LCP that contains the minimum necessary to comply with the Coastal Act. To achieved this goal, Ben revised a prior draft of the City’s Coastal Land Use Element to only contain policies required by the Coastal Act consistent with the City’s vision for the costal zone. Ben is currently revising a prior draft of the Coastal Zoning Code that focuses exclusively on protection of coastal resources and Coastal Act compliance. All provisions not explicitly required by the Coastal Act have been removed. Ben will prepare a summary matrix demonstrating LCP compliance with the Coastal Act for City staff to use during the Coastal Commission review and certification process.
Eureka Zoning Code Update. Eureka’s updated Zoning Code, adopted in May 2019, replaced an antiquated 1960s-era code to implement the City’s new General Plan. Ben worked closely with City staff to prepare a highly customized Zoning Code to address Eureka’s unique land use and development issues. The new Zoning Code contains new mixed-use districts to accommodate new multifamily and mixed-use development in existing commercial areas. Ben prepared a new design standards chapters with objective standards for multi-family and mixed-use development. The design standards allow for flexibility and creativity by allowing projects to choose from a menu of options to satisfy architectural design requirements. The Zoning Code also contains a range of new flexibility and relief provisions, including a new nonconformity section, to support historic preservation and encourage infill development. Ben continues to work with the City to update other chapters of the municipal code, including the subdivision ordinance, historic preservation, wireless telecommunication facilities, and cannabis regulations.
Benicia Accessory Dwelling Unit Ordinance. Ben Noble updated Benicia’s accessory dwelling unit ordinance in early 2020 for consistency with by Assembly Bill 68, SB 13 and AB 881 which went into effect on January 1, 2020. Ben led a series of stakeholder meetings to review the new state law requirements, explore options
A-4 on how to meet these requirements, and review drafts of the updated ADU ordinance. Ben worked closely with Benicia’s City Attorney to ensure that the updated ADU ordinance complies with state law while promoting Benicia’s local needs. The updated ADU ordinance contains new objective design standards for historic properties to allow for ministerial approval of ADU’s while preventing adverse impacts to historic resources.
Capitola Accessory Dwelling Unit Ordinance. Ben Noble updated the City’s of Capitola’s accessory dwelling unit (ADU) ordinance in 2020 to comply with new state law. Revisions addressed the ADU permit approval process, allowed zoning districts, maximum number of ADU’s per parcel, and guaranteed allowances under state law. Revisions to ADU development standards removed minimum parcel size, increased maximum unit size, reduced minimum setbacks, and increased height for one-story detached ADU. Existing subjective requirement were replaced with new objective standards, including standards to minimize adverse impacts to historic properties consistent with the Secretary of the Interior standards for the Treatment of Historic Properties. The updated ADU ordinance includes a number of provisions unique to the coastal zone to achieve compliance with the Coastal Act and Capitola’s certified LCP. Ben is currently assisting the City to obtain Coastal Commission certification of the updated ADU ordinance.
Benicia Mixed-Use District Project. Ben Noble leads a consultant team selected to prepare the Mixed-Use District project for the City of Benicia. This project, funded with an SB2 grant, will create a new mixed-use zoning district to accommodate new residential development in the area near the intersection of Military East and East Fifth Street. This zoning district will allow by-right housing subject to objective zoning and design standards. The project aims to promote development on vacant and underutilized properties, increase the diversity of housing choices in Benicia, explore new opportunities to satisfy the City’s future Regional Housing Needs Allocation (RHNA), and ensure that infill development is compatible with adjacent residential uses. The project will include extensive public outreach and engagement to explore zoning options to achieve these goals.
Sonoma County Development Code Update. Ben assisted Sonoma County to complete Phase 1 of the County’s Development Code modernization effort. The modernized code significantly consolidates and simplifies existing allowed land use and permit requirement information for the County’s zoning districts. Allowed land uses and development standards are now presented in table to eliminate repetition and ensure consistency. The Sonoma County Development Code includes a variety of provisions that relate to agricultural employee housing types, including caretaker dwellings, full-time housing, seasonal housing, and temporary camps. Ben assisted the County to clarify the definitions of these housing types, identify where these housing types are allowed, specify permit requirements, and clarify applicable standards.
Capitola Zoning Code Update. Ben prepared a comprehensive update to Capitola’s Zoning Code as a follow- up task to Capitola’s updated General Plan. The updated Zoning Code contains two new mixed-use districts for the Central Village and neighborhood-serving commercial areas. The mixed-use districts include objective standards for building placement, building orientation, facade design, building rhythm, ground- floor transparency, and parking location and design. The Zoning Code contains a number of new provisions to encourage transportation alternatives and reduce reliance on the automobile, including increased parking flexibility in mixed-use areas and design standards for bicycle and pedestrian facilities. The updated Zoning Code enhances economic vitality through improved permitting procedures and development standards that support the long-term vision for commercial and mixed-use centers. New provisions in the Zoning Code reflect best practices from other communities and are carefully tailored to reflect the unique needs of the Capitola community. Ben is currently assisting the City to obtain Coastal Commission certification of the updated Zoning Code.
A-5 Berkeley Zoning Ordinance Revision Project. Ben is leading a team to update the Berkeley Zoning Ordinance with a focus on enhancing customer service and streamlining the permitting process. Project Phase 1 will reorganize the existing Zoning Ordinance, establish a user-friendly document format, and clarify existing requirements. New graphics, tables, and charts will be added to clarify requirements and clearly communicate information to readers. Project Phase 2 will involve substantive amendments to facilitate approval of new infill development consistent with City goals and policies. These amendments will likely focus on permits required for proposed projects and the criteria used to approve applications. Phase 2 amendments may also address residential design review criteria and procedures, parking standards to advance sustainability goals, and improved nonconformity provisions, among other topics.
Moraga Hillsides and Ridgelines Project. Ben led a consultant team to update hillside and ridgeline development regulations in Moraga. The project included targeted amendments to the Town’s General Plan and Zoning Code to better achieve the Town’s open space preservation and development goals. Key issues included ridgeline protection, hazards remediation, visual impacts, and the permitting process. Amendments clarified ambiguities, increased certainty, eliminated conflicting requirements, and generally made the Town’s regulations easier to understand for project applicants, residents, Town staff, and Town decision-makers. The project involved extensive community participation, including steering committee meetings, community workshops, and meetings with the Planning Commission and Town Council.
Morgan Hill Zoning Ordinance and Residential Development Control System. Ben prepared updates to the Morgan Hill Zoning Ordinance and Residential Development Control System (RDCS) as part of the Morgan Hill 2035 project. For the RDCS Update, Ben facilitated over 10 working group meetings to streamline and modernize Morgan Hill’s existing growth management system. The updated RDCS regulates the pace of development in Morgan Hill while promoting public benefits, quality design, and sustainability through an improved competition process. The updated Zoning Ordinance further advances the City’s goals with new residential design standards and development regulations that reflect current development practices. The updated Zoning Ordinance was prepared in a clear and concise manner with table, graphics, and a plain English writing style to make the document accessible for all users.
