MINUTES SPECIAL MEETING Antioch City Council: Waterfront Revitalization Committee Mayor Pro-Tem Joy Motts and Council member Monica Wilson Friday, October 23, 2020 10:00AM 1. Roll Call Mayor Pro-Tem Joy Motts and Council Member Monica Wilson were present. 2. Pledge of Allegiance 3. Introductions Community Members Sean McCauley, Matt Beinke and George Cardinale were in attendance, in addition to City staff Forrest Ebbs, Kwame Reed, Ron Bernal and Rosanna Bayon Moore. 4. Public Comments on Unagendized Items None received. 5. Discussion on Waterfront Revitalization On August 25, 2020, the City Council received an update on Ad Hoc Committee efforts to date. On September 8, 2020, the City Council took action to create a standing committee, now referred to as the Waterfront Revitalization Committee. It was noted that greater formality is required of a standing committee, including the posting of agendas in advance. Mayor Pro Tem Motts and Council Member Wilson have been designated as committee members. The following recommended actions previously discussed by the Ad Hoc Committee were revisited with updates: a) Second Street Closure between G Street and City Hall – After further research and communication with stakeholders, support for future closure of 2nd Street is not broadly supported. b) Parklets for On-Street Outdoor Dining or Business - The City has already acted to acquire and install barricades in the downtown with CARES funding. c) Speed Tables on 2nd Street – The speed of travel continues to be a concern. Methods for slowing cars along this roadway segment will improve pedestrian safety and promote a safe and walkable downtown. Such an approach is wholly consistent with the Downtown Specific Plan. The Public Works Department is currently working to develop a menu of traffic calming alternatives for application throughout the City. Specific projects would then be identified and integrated into the annual capital improvement plan. The Committee wishes to receive further updates in the future on the menu of traffic calming alternatives and potential installation on 2nd Street. d) Waterfront Dining District in the Downtown –The existence of the Rivertown Historic District in the Downtown Specific Plan was discussed. The Rivertown concept continues to have appeal, although the name is not universally known. There is ongoing interest for emphasis to be placed on Rivertown dining, specifically. Antioch’s waterfront landscape and affordable rents make it uniquely attractive. Wine bars and breweries are ideal pairings with dining establishments. Stakeholders continue to encourage the Committee to leverage the waterfront in ways that capitalize on entertainment, recreation and dining. Installation of appropriate signage and development of a robust marketing strategy to promote dining on the waterfront were identified as critical for success. A sense of place and identity are what will make Antioch residents and visitors think “I’m going to Rivertown.” Public Works is engaging a consultant to assist the City with wayfinding signage. The Committee wishes to receive further updates in the future as it relates to signage and marketing. e) Unreinforced Masonry Building (URM) Policy – It was noted that establishing an URM policy is not likely to produce the desired results. The concept is not widely supported by downtown stakeholders and it may create barriers to future occupancy of currently vacant buildings. Staff was asked to evaluate existing property maintenance standards and determine whether new policy is needed to achieve a higher level of maintenance as it relates to facades, paint and color palettes, etc. The Committee wishes to receive further updates in the future as it relates to efforts to improve maintenance standards. f) Wilbur Avenue - Wilbur Avenue is also waterfront property and in need of further discussion. It was agreed that this area and its job generating potential should be placed on a future agenda. The Committee requested a future presentation and update by Contra Costa County Supervisor Federal Glover. g) Motion to Adjourn – m/s Motts, Wilson Next meeting tentatively scheduled for Friday, November 20, 2020 at 10AM STAFF REPORT TO THE WATERFRONT REVITALIZATION COMMITTEE DATE: Regular Meeting of November 20, 2020 SUBMITTED BY: Forrest Ebbs, Community Development Director SUBJECT: DOWNTOWN SPECIFIC PLAN On February 13, 2018, the Antioch City Council adopted the Downtown Specific Plan to provide a new policy framework for activities and redevelopment in downtown Antioch. The process from initiation to adoption took approximately four years. The result is a comprehensive land use document that provides definitive policies and programs that will guide City action throughout the downtown area. The current copy of the Downtown Specific Plan is available at the link below. In California, Specific Plans are defined in Government Code and their contents, method of adoption, and other elements are prescribed. More information about the legal context of Specific Plan are in the links below. One of the main goals of the Downtown Specific Plan was to create an environment where outside investment could occur. Many of the prior policies were overly restrictive and precluded ordinary investments that aligned with the current economic environment downtown. Nearly all these barriers were removed and, today, a wide array of land uses and development types can occur in the downtown area. Another goal was to introduce new design standards to ensure that new development and remodels contribute to the historic feel and architectural character of downtown Antioch. All new construction and exterior alterations to existing buildings now require Design Review by the Planning Division and the default standard for alterations to older buildings is the Secretary of the Interior’s Standards for the Treatment of Historic Properties. A link to these standards is provided. Finally, the Downtown Specific Plan includes policies that direct City investment into capital projects and supportive programs in downtown Antioch. City staff recently assembled a multi-departmental working group to begin identifying accomplishments and goals to pursue these projects and programs. The Implementation Plan at the back of the Downtown Specific Plan is the basis for this work. Staff is asking the Waterfront Revitalization Committee to acquaint themselves with the Downtown Specific Plan in advance of the meeting. Particular attention should be paid to the Implementation Plan and schedule. A discussion of the Plan, its contents, and implementation is anticipated.

The intent of the draft recovery criteria is to establish objective, measurable criteria which, when met, would result in determinations for downlisting and delisting of Lange’s metalmark, O.d. subsp. howellii, and E.c. var. angustatum. About the Peer Review Process Type of Review: Individual letters The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (Service) will provide each peer reviewer with information explaining their role and instructions for fulfilling that role, the draft recovery criteria, and a list of citations as necessary. The purpose of seeking independent peer review is to ensure use of the best scientific and commercial information available and to ensure and to maximize the quality, objectivity, utility, and integrity of the information upon which the report is based, as well as to ensure that reviews by recognized experts are incorporated into the recovery planning process.

We present new information on oviposition behaviour in the Mormon Metalmark, Apodemia mormo Felder and Felder, 1859 , documented in Grasslands National Park of Canada, Saskatchewan, in August 2011. The Mormon Metalmark is found through - out the U.S. southwest; little is known about its life history in the northern populations found in Canada. We provide photo - graphic documentation of the butterfly laying single eggs directly on soil or rocks. These observations differ from those recorded in the southern part of its range, where it lays eggs in groups of 2–4 on various locations of the host plant, Branched Umbrella- Plant, Eriogonum pauciflorum Pursh. This is the first published account of oviposition behaviour of this species in Canada in the most northern part of its range.

The dataset published herein contains the label data for all North American specimens of Lycaenidae and Riodinidae residing at the Oregon State Arthropod Collection as of March 2019. A beta version of these data records will be made available on the OSAC server (http://osac.oregonstate.edu/IPT) at the time of this publication. The beta version will be replaced in the near future with an official release (version 1.0), which will be archived as a supplemental file to this paper. Methods Basic digitization protocols and metadata standards can be found in (Shepard et al. 2018). Identifications were confirmed by Jon Shepard and Paul Hammond prior to digitization. Nomenclature follows that of (Pelham 2008). Results The holdings in these two families are extensive. Combined, they make up 25,743 specimens (24,598 Lycanidae and 1145 Riodinidae).
