OFFICE OF THE CITY MANAGER July 16, 2021 TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council FROM: Christian Clegg, City Manager CC / CH SUBJECT: General Information Notable Items This week Bakersfield Fire Department deployed firefighters to respond to the River Fire in Mariposa County (top right). One of 212 engines assigned to the River Fire, Bakersfield Fire’s OES 412 (bottom right) was deployed on July 11 and is tasked with protecting homes in the area. As of July 14, the fire had burned 9,500 acres and was 28% contained. Firefighters continue to aggressively attack the fire even as dangerous heat persists. Low humidity, tree torching, wind- driven runs and frequent spot fires continue to challenge firefighters involved in containing the River Fire. Bakersfield firefighters can be expected to be committed to this incident for as many as two weeks. Crews from the Recreation & Parks Department are completing Top: The River Fire in Mariposoa County; bottom: some repairs at the east lake at Bakersfield Fire’s OES 412 crew made up of (left to The Park at River Walk this week, right) Capt. Scott Drake, Engineer Lance Osborne, and requiring them to lower the water Firefighters Sean Rogers and Jorge Godinez. General Information July 16, 2021 Page 2 level there. The lake will be returned to its normal level once the repairs are completed, using canal water that was released further downstream and rediverted back, resulting in no net loss of water. It’s expected to take two weeks before repairs are completed. The City continues to grow. Development Services reports that we are currently out- pacing last year’s single-family home building permits issued to-date, and in June, the City issued 110 such permits. Compared to the same point in 2020, there have been 32 more permits issued so far in 2021: 614 through June (year-to-date) compared to 582 last year. Despite the pandemic, single-family home building didn’t slow down, with more new single-family home permits issued last year (1,450) than in any of the previous five years. The City invites the public to an in-person Open House on July 22nd at MLK Community Center to learn more about the Transformative Climate Communities (TCC) program which funds development and infrastructure programs to accomplish environmental, health, and economic benefits in the most disadvantaged communities. The City’s Solid Waste Division hosted two pop-up large trash item drop-off events on Saturday, July 10 at Planz Park and Riverlakes Ranch Community Center. Between the two locations, 183 vehicles came through and the City collected almost 25,000 pounds of trash items: • The Planz Park location received almost 16,000 pounds of trash, another 660 pounds of recycling materials, and 12 mattresses; • The Riverlakes Ranch Community Center location received 13,120 pounds of trash, 760 pounds of recycling and 17 mattresses. These events funded by the Public Safety & Vital Services (PSVS) Measure as part of Bakersfield’s Clean City Initiative.

    2.4 PARKS AND OPEN SPACE ELEMENT DRAFT EXISTING CONDITIONS, CONSTRAINTS AND OPPORTUNITIES REPORT 2.4 PARKS AND OPEN SPACE ELEMENT The Parks and Open Space Element details how open space, recreational areas and natural resource areas will be preserved and managed. 2.4.1 EXISTING CONDITIONS The 2002 Metropolitan Bakersfield General Plan addresses Parks and Open Space in two separate elements. It is proposed that these two elements be combined under one comprehensive Parks and Open Space Element as part of the General Plan Update. Therefore, the following is a brief overview of both the Parks and Open space elements of the 2002 Metropolitan Bakersfield General Plan. Parks Parks are generally categorized as either “local” or “regional” in the 2002 Metropolitan Bakersfield General Plan. Local parks generally range from 1 to 2.5 acres for mini-parks, 5- 10 acres for neighborhood parks, and approximately 30 acres for community parks. Regional parks, on the other hand, can range anywhere from 20 to 1,000 acres and may serve a population living within a one–hour drive (about 50 miles). Historically, park facilities in the planning area have been provided by the City of Bakersfield, Kern County, the North of the River Recreation and Park District (NORRPD), Bear Mountain Recreation and Park District, school districts, colleges, and, most recently, private developers. Regional parks have been the responsibility of Kern County. The City of Bakersfield and Kern County operate regional, community and neighborhood parks and trails, along with community centers and other recreational facilities. The park system under the jurisdiction of the City of Bakersfield includes more than 50 parks, recreation facilities and trails such as the Kern River Parkway (see Figure 2.4.1-1 Existing Parks in Metropolitan Bakersfield, below, and Table 2.4.1-1 Existing Parks in Metropolitan Bakersfield, located at the end of this chapter, for a listing of all parks in the Metropolitan Bakersfield area).

    OFFICE OF THE CITY MANAGER November 15, 2019 TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council FROM: Alan Tandy, City Manager AT / CH SUBJECT: General Information Notable Items Staff continues to work on finding a suitable location for a low-barrier homeless shelter in Bakersfield. To that end, several City Staff members – including Assistant City Managers Jacqui Kitchen and Chris Huot, Public Works Director Nick Fidler, and Community Development Coordinator Nina Carter – this week visited 40 Prado, a shelter facility in San Luis Obispo that Staff has drawn inspiration from. City Staff, along with members from Kern County Behavioral Health and Recovery Services met with 40 Prado’s Deputy Director Grace McIntosh to discuss operations of such a General Information November 15, 2019 Page 2 facility. McIntosh showed Staff how clients are processed when they come to the 100-bed facility, the dormitory areas, where and how some on-site health care services are provided, as well as a green space, a kennel and a kitchen. McIntosh also explained ways the facility has become part of the neighborhood in a positive way, even offering its campus to host various services for the community at times. It was a very educational visit and will help as Staff continues researching what operating a low-barrier shelter in Bakersfield will require. The recognition of the City’s Water Resources Department continues as the department has won yet another award for its 1,2,3-Trichlorpropane (TCP) mitigation project, this time from the American Council of Engineering Companies (ACEC). The project won a Merit Award in the ACEC’s 2020 Engineering Excellence Award competition.

    OFFICE OF THE CITY MANAGER June 22, 2012 TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council FROM: Alan Tandy, City Manager AT SUBJECT: General Information Miscellaneous News As reported to you previously, a celebration is planned for The Park at River Walk on the 4th of July. We encourage all of you to bring your family and friends to come out and enjoy the festivities. The press release and concert lineup are attached. Next year, through donations, we aspire to add a “name performer” and fireworks. The Federal Courthouse, which has been under construction for the past two years, is scheduled to hold its first day of cases on Monday, July 16th. We want to thank Gilbane Building Company, and specifically, Jerry Jones, Senior Project Executive, for keeping us informed every step of the way. Together with GSA, they have built a very striking new amenity that not only compliments Mill Creek, but the entirety of Bakersfield as well. An article is enclosed that provides more information. The Draft Environmental Report (DEIR) for the Kern River Flow and Municipal Water Program was released on Thursday, and there is a link on our webpage, http://www.bakersfieldcity.us/cityservices/devsrv/planning/DEIR.htm should you wish to review it. This environmental review is necessary to support the City‟s pending application before the State Water Resources Control Board for additional unappropriated water to run down the river. The Water Board will be holding a Special Meeting on July 11th at 5:15 p.m. to receive public comments. The Environment Impact Report for the 24th Street project is also out for review, and it can be accessed from the TRIP website: http://www.bakersfieldfreeways.us/project_24th_street.html There will be a Public Forum next Tuesday, June 26th, in the Rabobank Convention Center Lobby, from 4 – 7 p.m.
