Leadership folsom this year. So, for about the next hour and so, for about the next hour and 15 minutes we’d like to go 15 minutes we’d like to go through all the details for you. Through all the details for you. So what is leadership folsom? So what is leadership folsom? For — I know that a lot of you for — I know that a lot of you are familiar already, have are familiar already, have personal experience with it personal experience with it maybe — but we have 29 members maybe — but we have 29 members for class of 2025-2026.

The focus is to develop our own the focus is to develop our own leadership skills to meet with leadership skills to meet with like-minded leaders who are like-minded leaders who are interested in the benefit and interested in the benefit and prosperity and thriving of our prosperity and thriving of our community. Community. As well as traditionally, each as well as traditionally, each class will select a class class will select a class project, as well, and work on project, as well, and work on that together. That together. We began in October of this we began in October of this year, October and November we year, October and November we spent time considering different spent time considering different projects that we might select. Projects that we might select. You can see some of the examples you can see some of the examples there. There. We had some criteria that was we had some criteria that was really important to us that we really important to us that we identified. Identified. We wanted something that would we wanted something that would be impactful. Be impactful. Something that would last longer something that would last longer than our class. Than our class. We wanted something that had a we wanted something that had a clear scope so we could define clear scope so we could define success and knowing when it success and knowing when it began and when it ended. Began and when it ended. We wanted something that would we wanted something that would be able to get behind an area of be able to get behind an area of the community that people have the community that people have been recognizing a need around been recognizing a need around and see what strength and and see what strength and enthusiasm we could bring to enthusiasm we could bring to that project to support the that project to support the city. City. We voted together at the end of we voted together at the end of November. November. And our finalist was the folsom and our finalist was the folsom city zoo sanctuary. City zoo sanctuary. We will be re-doing the signage we will be re-doing the signage in the front. In the front. We hope, as well, to add a we hope, as well, to add a monument and potentially some monument and potentially some interactive kiosks for the interactive kiosks for the community to enjoy. Community to enjoy. And my co-chair, laura, before and my co-chair, laura, before she does that — could I just she does that — could I just have — if you are a member — have — if you are a member — or class of 2025-2026 folsom or class of 2025-2026 folsom leadership, would you stand? Leadership, would you stand? Appreciate the support. Appreciate the support. To go through some details, to go through some details, laura is going to go through laura is going to go through that for us. That for us. Thanks eric, good evening thanks eric, good evening mayor and members of the city mayor and members of the city council. Council. Happy to be here in support of happy to be here in support of this project. This project. So for the past month or so, so for the past month or so, month or two months, we’ve been month or two months, we’ve been trying to organize the trying to organize the governance and eric and I are governance and eric and I are co-chairs and have several co-chairs and have several committees to divide up the work committees to divide up the work for what’s needed to execute a for what’s needed to execute a project like this. Project like this. As mentioned, this is the as mentioned, this is the initial sign design concept for initial sign design concept for the zoo sanctuary. The zoo sanctuary. The design committee that is the design committee that is chaired by andrew egers, met chaired by andrew egers, met with rebecca and city staff to with rebecca and city staff to come up with this design and come up with this design and support. Support. So we’re pleased to present so we’re pleased to present this. This. And then, ideally, if we can be and then, ideally, if we can be successful with our fundraising successful with our fundraising effort, we’d like to as effort, we’d like to as mentioned add a monument sign mentioned add a monument sign and informational kiosk as well. And informational kiosk as well. So these are preliminary so these are preliminary designs. Designs. We hope to raise enough funds to we hope to raise enough funds to implement these. Implement these. We’ve come up with a preliminary we’ve come up with a preliminary budget. Budget. The estimate is around 10,000 to the estimate is around 10,000 to 26,000 dollars for the sign, the 26,000 dollars for the sign, the monument, and the landscaping monument, and the landscaping and kiosk, et cetera. And kiosk, et cetera. We also hope to do an event to we also hope to do an event to unveil the sign and we’d hope unveil the sign and we’d hope you would all attend for that you would all attend for that exciting event, probably later exciting event, probably later this summer. This summer. We are working with friends of we are working with friends of the folsom zoo for our resource the folsom zoo for our resource stewardship to collect all our stewardship to collect all our donations and help us organize donations and help us organize our finances. Our finances. And we have brainstormed some and we have brainstormed some fundraising ideas. Fundraising ideas. We’ll utilize our networks for we’ll utilize our networks for donations and sponsors. Donations and sponsors. We’d like to host a pancake we’d like to host a pancake breakfast and do art through the breakfast and do art through the schools or animal art auction. Schools or animal art auction. Those ideas have been vetted those ideas have been vetted with the zoo leadership and with the zoo leadership and friends of the folsom zoo. Friends of the folsom zoo. So we are confident we be so we are confident we be successful. Successful. It is not a comprehensive list. It is not a comprehensive list. We might change up what we end we might change up what we end up doing for fundraising, that’s up doing for fundraising, that’s what we’ve done so far. What we’ve done so far. Just to review our timeline, we just to review our timeline, we just started convening our class just started convening our class in early October, we’re not very in early October, we’re not very far into our work. Far into our work. We spent the last couple months we spent the last couple months deciding on our project, and deciding on our project, and then organizing our governance then organizing our governance structure to execute on that structure to execute on that project. Project. We’re going to pivot here we’re going to pivot here sharply in the next month to sharply in the next month to work on fundraising. Work on fundraising. We want to really dedicate some we want to really dedicate some strong efforts to fundraising strong efforts to fundraising over the next couple months so over the next couple months so then we can manufacturer the then we can manufacturer the sign, get it built and installed sign, get it built and installed hopefully in the spring. Hopefully in the spring. We’ll continue our fundraising. We’ll continue our fundraising. Our leadership class will our leadership class will graduate in June. Graduate in June. We hope to be able to unveil and we hope to be able to unveil and have everything ready to go fehr have everything ready to go fehr the community and launch an the community and launch an event to celebrate that in the event to celebrate that in the summer or fall. Summer or fall. So we’d invite all of you to so we’d invite all of you to participate in that as well. Participate in that as well. And, I think that’s it for our and, I think that’s it for our representation. Representation. We’ll take any questions that we’ll take any questions that you might have. You might have. Thank you so much for coming thank you so much for coming out and providing the update. Out and providing the update. Any questions? Any questions? All right. All right. Sounds like a great project. Sounds like a great project. Thank you. Thank you. We’re excited. We’re excited. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Please call item two. Please call item two. Item two is a presentation item two is a presentation regarding the final report for regarding the final report for the folsom water vision. The folsom water vision. If you could start the if you could start the three-minute timer. Three-minute timer. You got it. You got it. All right. All right. Thank you. Thank you. You’ll have to hit that probably you’ll have to hit that probably about ten time it’s but thank about ten time it’s but thank you for the intro. You for the intro. Thank you for that. Thank you for that. I’m the utilities director, I’m the utilities director, first time I’ve said that out first time I’ve said that out loud at a council meeting. Loud at a council meeting. Tonight presentation I want to tonight presentation I want to give a high level. Give a high level. We have a final report. We have a final report. I’ve provided an executive I’ve provided an executive summary. Summary. The final report is available the final report is available online if you want to read all online if you want to read all the details. The details. Hopefully I’ll encapsulate hopefully I’ll encapsulate hundred plus pages and six hundred plus pages and six meetings and 16 months of work meetings and 16 months of work in a nice succinct effort in a nice succinct effort tonight. Tonight. So what is the folsom water so what is the folsom water vision what we’re trying to do. Vision what we’re trying to do. We’re trying to shape the city’s we’re trying to shape the city’s water future for the next 50 water future for the next 50 plus years. Plus years. So looking at current trends and so looking at current trends and regulations, state law, et regulations, state law, et cetera. Cetera. What do we do moving forward? What do we do moving forward? Knowing that there’s various knowing that there’s various reports by the bureau of reports by the bureau of reclamation or state of reclamation or state of california in terms of how the california in terms of how the changing climate will impact changing climate will impact water supply throughout the water supply throughout the state. State. We also had a specific report we also had a specific report locally to help shape what we locally to help shape what we were planning for within the were planning for within the next 50 years. Next 50 years. One important aspect of this was one important aspect of this was our stakeholder engagement. Our stakeholder engagement. When we first brought this to when we first brought this to council we really wanted to let council we really wanted to let the prior council know this was the prior council know this was an important part of the an important part of the project. Project. We really wanted to invite a we really wanted to invite a stakeholder group that had a stakeholder group that had a become ground in regional water become ground in regional water summarize, background maybe in summarize, background maybe in environmental needs, a environmental needs, a background in main water quality background in main water quality or what the needs were as we or what the needs were as we planned for this — and ensured planned for this — and ensured we got a broad left of we got a broad left of stakeholders, here’s a list, not stakeholders, here’s a list, not all by name but you can see the all by name but you can see the broad range of groups we had broad range of groups we had represented, plus the regional represented, plus the regional partners within the sacramento partners within the sacramento area that we work with in area that we work with in various authorities on a weekly, various authorities on a weekly, monthly basis, so we had monthly basis, so we had feedback from those groups as feedback from those groups as well. Well. They have a good understanding they have a good understanding what our regional partners are what our regional partners are doing and what we’re doing in doing and what we’re doing in folsom will overlap or coex9 folsom will overlap or coex9 with those partners. With those partners. We had six stakeholder meetings we had six stakeholder meetings and recorded each and put them and recorded each and put them on the website. On the website. We develop through the we develop through the communication team a communication team a project-specific website. Project-specific website. It was very easy to find all of it was very easy to find all of the information on the meetings, the information on the meetings, presentations, videos, and presentations, videos, and agendas of all of the topics and agendas of all of the topics and everything covered during those everything covered during those mightings. Mightings. As mentioned, this was a very as mentioned, this was a very important part for me as part of important part for me as part of this process because it wasn’t this process because it wasn’t just staff’s report and just staff’s report and presentation, it was ultimately, presentation, it was ultimately, in my opinion, a stakeholder-led in my opinion, a stakeholder-led effort with our staff and our effort with our staff and our engineering team wsc, water engineering team wsc, water systems consulting, provide ig systems consulting, provide ig the technical part of the the technical part of the project. Project. As mentioned, we did hold six as mentioned, we did hold six public workshops, starting in public workshops, starting in February ’24 and finished the February ’24 and finished the last one in April of ’25 and last one in April of ’25 and finalized the report for draft finalized the report for draft consumption in the consumption in the August-timeframe. August-timeframe. But these are the topics of the but these are the topics of the sixers different workshops, sixers different workshops, won’t read them out loud. Won’t read them out loud. I will go into a little detail I will go into a little detail about what we did during each about what we did during each one. One. As mentioned, we did take a as mentioned, we did take a step-by-step process, basically step-by-step process, basically starting at what are our starting at what are our objectives? What is the objectives? What is the feedback loop that we’re getting feedback loop that we’re getting from the community through from the community through surveys that we did — and also surveys that we did — and also feedback from the stakeholders feedback from the stakeholders in terms of what is important in terms of what is important for us to look at when for us to look at when identifying the water supply identifying the water supply results and constraints and results and constraints and projects to mitigate some projects to mitigate some constraints, and assessing constraints, and assessing vulnerable vulnerable italians–vulnerabilities and italians–vulnerabilities and looking at the themes to looking at the themes to evaluate what will work based on evaluate what will work based on the feedback from the the feedback from the stakeholders and the surveys and stakeholders and the surveys and anybody that was there from the anybody that was there from the public. Public. And then developed our defined and then developed our defined portfolios. Portfolios. The last item obviously was the last item obviously was putting all this together in an putting all this together in an executive summary and final executive summary and final report. Report. And developing kind of an and developing kind of an implementation or roadmap of how implementation or roadmap of how we might get to these different we might get to these different targets. Targets. So, the the the first part was so, the the the first part was identifying the goals, values, identifying the goals, values, objectives. Objectives. On the left, the six items that on the left, the six items that stood out from the feedback from stood out from the feedback from the public, survey and the public, survey and stakeholder group, was a stakeholder group, was a reliable water supply, resilient reliable water supply, resilient water supply, maintaining water supply, maintaining high-level quality water that high-level quality water that the city has, not ensuring it is the city has, not ensuring it is affordable but trying to make it affordable but trying to make it obviously as affordable as obviously as affordable as possible, the community wants to possible, the community wants to trust the water supply, okay, trust the water supply, okay, what we’re doing, what we plan what we’re doing, what we plan to do, is something that they to do, is something that they have trust that the city can have trust that the city can ensure, and then efficient water ensure, and then efficient water use. Use. We know that’s coming down from we know that’s coming down from the state. The state. That is built into what just that is built into what just happens now because of state happens now because of state law. Law. Desired outcomes, obviously desired outcomes, obviously building consensus in the group building consensus in the group was critical. Was critical. Developing a roadmap as to how developing a roadmap as to how we get to some of these we get to some of these implementation strategies. Implementation strategies. It wasn’t just, okay, here’s a it wasn’t just, okay, here’s a report, what you can do and report, what you can do and lovato at that — left at that. Lovato at that — left at that. It’s really how do you move it it’s really how do you move it forward. Forward. And the process goals, and the process goals, evaluating the current and evaluating the current and future water supplies, how to future water supplies, how to manage the supply, portfolio to manage the supply, portfolio to minimize impact to ratepayers minimize impact to ratepayers and the process was to be and the process was to be transparent going through that transparent going through that which I believe we fully met which I believe we fully met that part of this. That part of this. You know, item two was assessing you know, item two was assessing the risks and vulnerabilities so the risks and vulnerabilities so what are these throughout the what are these throughout the city? City? So one, we have one single raw so one, we have one single raw water pipe line from folsom water pipe line from folsom reservoir to the city’s water reservoir to the city’s water treatment plant, if you look at treatment plant, if you look at the plant and each individual the plant and each individual process not every process is process not every process is fully redundant so building in fully redundant so building in fully-redundant process in the fully-redundant process in the water treatment plant. Water treatment plant. Single source of supply. Single source of supply. So the city receives all of its so the city receives all of its water from folsom reservoir. Water from folsom reservoir. Low lake levels can be a low lake levels can be a potential challenge in the potential challenge in the future, so when that happens the future, so when that happens the bureau of reclamation has a plan bureau of reclamation has a plan to set out floating pumps to to set out floating pumps to deliver water to the city. Deliver water to the city. And once water supplies get and once water supplies get below a level of 1– 280 is when below a level of 1– 280 is when those become unreliable to any those become unreliable to any agencies that take water from agencies that take water from the reservoir. The reservoir. Those are the vulnerable — those are the vulnerable — risks looking at the lens and risks looking at the lens and trying to hit on as many of trying to hit on as many of those as we could. Those as we could. This is just what I talked about this is just what I talked about earlier. Earlier. Just in take format. Just in take format. It just gives a little more it just gives a little more maybe numbers to it. Maybe numbers to it. So we took all of those so we took all of those different projects and different projects and vulnerabilities and looked at vulnerabilities and looked at past studies the city was past studies the city was involved with to develop our involved with to develop our options. Options. We created and took from those we created and took from those different reports the project different reports the project projects associated that would projects associated that would potentially mitigate the potentially mitigate the different vulnerabilities and different vulnerabilities and risks and identified which risks and identified which project we felt as a team were project we felt as a team were feasible and then put the feasible and then put the projects together in these projects together in these different portfolios to deliver different portfolios to deliver to the stakeholder group and to the stakeholder group and then get feedback from the then get feedback from the group. Group. So with that, we developed these so with that, we developed these draft supply portfolios which draft supply portfolios which looked at surface water projects looked at surface water projects and then groundwater projects. And then groundwater projects. I’ll talk about a little more I’ll talk about a little more towards the end. Towards the end. But when we developed all these but when we developed all these and presented these to and presented these to stakeholder groups a lot of the stakeholder groups a lot of the feedback was, hey, it would be feedback was, hey, it would be good to have a portfolio that good to have a portfolio that combines both of these combines both of these alternatives, right? Alternatives, right? To look at groundwater to look at groundwater alternatives in conjunction with alternatives in conjunction with surface water alternatives to surface water alternatives to develop hybrid portfolio. Develop hybrid portfolio. So we ultimately landed with the so we ultimately landed with the plan that identifies options plan that identifies options under both of these different under both of these different alternatives from either alternatives from either groundwater or surface water. Groundwater or surface water. So you can see where you’ve got so you can see where you’ve got improved infrastructure, we’ve improved infrastructure, we’ve got groundwater only option, we got groundwater only option, we have got enhanced groundwater have got enhanced groundwater option, which expands where we option, which expands where we would look in terms of would look in terms of partnering with agencies that partnering with agencies that have access to surface and have access to surface and groundwater and enhanced surface groundwater and enhanced surface water options. Water options. So besides redundancy of a so besides redundancy of a pipeline is there potential of pipeline is there potential of doing a redundant second intake doing a redundant second intake somewhere? Somewhere? That’s part of that option. That’s part of that option. With all of the feedback and with all of the feedback and with the surveys we asked our with the surveys we asked our stakeholders okay, in order of stakeholders okay, in order of importance from one to five what importance from one to five what is important to you? Is important to you? Is reliability important, is reliability important, resiliency? Resiliency? You couldn’t put one for all of you couldn’t put one for all of them. Them. Had you to do one to five. Had you to do one to five. That identified for us how we that identified for us how we weighted each of the portfolios weighted each of the portfolios on a scoring basis. On a scoring basis. One of the appendices in the one of the appendices in the report goes into a lot more report goes into a lot more detail how you do the math. Detail how you do the math. Effectively, when we took that effectively, when we took that feedback here’s where each one feedback here’s where each one landed. Landed. So you can see in the first so you can see in the first four, reliability was important, four, reliability was important, and resiliency was important. And resiliency was important. We saw that in the feedback we we saw that in the feedback we got was having a resilient and got was having a resilient and reliable water supply. Reliable water supply. Now, this doesn’t say that cost now, this doesn’t say that cost isn’t important but it didn’t — isn’t important but it didn’t — I thought going into this that I thought going into this that it would be a higher factor, in it would be a higher factor, in terms of the people we surveyed, terms of the people we surveyed, but it was not. But it was not. The reliability and resiliency the reliability and resiliency of delivering water to our of delivering water to our customers, at least in the customers, at least in the surveys and within the surveys and within the stakeholder group orwere the two stakeholder group orwere the two highest ranking optums for– highest ranking optums for– objectives for this. Objectives for this. Stakeholder input. Stakeholder input. As mentioned, there was an as mentioned, there was an interest in developing a hybrid interest in developing a hybrid portfolio that combines both portfolio that combines both groundwater and surface water. Groundwater and surface water. So how adaptable are either or so how adaptable are either or both together? Both together? How do we enhance the existing how do we enhance the existing portfolio that the city has? Portfolio that the city has? How do we use our regional how do we use our regional partnerships to provide or partnerships to provide or develop projects that meet this develop projects that meet this hybrid scenario or provide hybrid scenario or provide options for groundwater and options for groundwater and surface water. Surface water. And the last one which was and the last one which was really important was adding a really important was adding a groundwater component to that, groundwater component to that, since currently the city relies since currently the city relies 100% on surface water from 100% on surface water from folsom reservoir it was how do folsom reservoir it was how do you tap into the groundwater you tap into the groundwater resources in the region or resources in the region or further develop partnerships further develop partnerships with the neighboring agencies with the neighboring agencies that have access to both that have access to both groundwater and surface water. Groundwater and surface water. So a summary of the recommended so a summary of the recommended portfolio, one, was ensuring we portfolio, one, was ensuring we add the water supply redundancy, add the water supply redundancy, so a parallel pipeline or new so a parallel pipeline or new intake and pipeline to the intake and pipeline to the treatment plant was high on the treatment plant was high on the list and important. List and important. Develop the folsom south canal, develop the folsom south canal, raw water intake. Raw water intake. So the city has contractual so the city has contractual right to be able to take water right to be able to take water from the folsom south canal. From the folsom south canal. So even if the intake at folsom so even if the intake at folsom reservoir was out for whatever reservoir was out for whatever reason, reclamation can still reason, reclamation can still deliver water through their deliver water through their lower inlet — or low eroutlet lower inlet — or low eroutlet to the american river to the to the american river to the south folsom canal. South folsom canal. We can pick up there. We can pick up there. You would have to build the you would have to build the infrastructure to move it back infrastructure to move it back to the treatment plant in toward to the treatment plant in toward to do so. To do so. But given we have a contractual but given we have a contractual right to do so it does get us right to do so it does get us ahead of the game because we ahead of the game because we wouldn’t seek a new point of wouldn’t seek a new point of conversion from reclamation to conversion from reclamation to do so. Do so. Improve treatment water improve treatment water redundancy. Redundancy. Looking at each process. Looking at each process. We’ve done this in terms of we’ve done this in terms of capacity of, say, the filters, capacity of, say, the filters, or the pre-treatment, or polymer or the pre-treatment, or polymer in the chemical feed systems but in the chemical feed systems but the individual pipelines between the individual pipelines between each process is something that each process is something that was of importance to the group. Was of importance to the group. Developing — or diversifying developing — or diversifying the water supply. The water supply. So how do we get to the so how do we get to the groundwater supplies within the groundwater supplies within the region. Region. That was important. That was important. And athin– then enhancing the and athin– then enhancing the reliability from folsom lake. Reliability from folsom lake. So implementation plan so implementation plan background. Background. So some of the key elements and so some of the key elements and programs we developed for each programs we developed for each of those areas. Of those areas. How do we add raw water supply how do we add raw water supply redundancy? Redundancy? Look specifically at those type look specifically at those type programs. Programs. You can see the table below. You can see the table below. Under diversifying the water under diversifying the water supply. Supply. We have diversifying the potable we have diversifying the potable supply. Supply. There’s also a component of the there’s also a component of the non-potable supply. Non-potable supply. I will get into it a little more I will get into it a little more in a couple slides but this is in a couple slides but this is really tapping into the treated really tapping into the treated groundwater from arrow jet. Groundwater from arrow jet. Thousand we put that into purple thousand we put that into purple pipe installed south of 50. Pipe installed south of 50. And what would be proposed in and what would be proposed in easton andbro areas and easton andbro areas and development there. Development there. So looking at the risking in the so looking at the risking in the system vulnerabilities from system vulnerabilities from infrastructure standpoint, infrastructure standpoint, single point of failure, single point of failure, treatment lacking full treatment lacking full redundancy, then single source redundancy, then single source of supply, low lake levels and of supply, low lake levels and then very low lake levels on the then very low lake levels on the far right. Far right. You see what the level of risk you see what the level of risk is that we identified as a is that we identified as a group, you know, the group, you know, the vulnerability of single point is vulnerability of single point is high-risk. High-risk. I will get to that in my last I will get to that in my last slide, but that is something slide, but that is something that, you know, we have a lot of that, you know, we have a lot of attention towards. Attention towards. So, from that we developed the so, from that we developed the scoring of each of the scoring of each of the voltitis — vulnerabilities voltitis — vulnerabilities based on the estimated based on the estimated probability. Probability. Effectively how were we ranking effectively how were we ranking it in the far right, which is it in the far right, which is the score. The score. The higher the number is, I the higher the number is, I won’t say is a better score — won’t say is a better score — it’s a score that we want to it’s a score that we want to avoid. Avoid. And so, those ones with the and so, those ones with the higher number are the ones that higher number are the ones that have a higher risk or have a higher risk or vulnerability of occurring, and vulnerability of occurring, and what the impact is on the city. What the impact is on the city. So you can imagine if the raw so you can imagine if the raw water pipeline failed between water pipeline failed between the reservoir and the treatment the reservoir and the treatment plant, that’s the supply for the plant, that’s the supply for the city. City. So it’s 100% impact. So it’s 100% impact. Right? Right? So, that’s — that’s why it so, that’s — that’s why it ranks, I guess, in the red. Ranks, I guess, in the red. And you can see the orange. And you can see the orange. And then those that follow in and then those that follow in the yellow. The yellow. So, what do we do to develop the so, what do we do to develop the portfolio to address these portfolio to address these voltitis? Voltitis? We have program one, the raw we have program one, the raw water redundancy. Water redundancy. Program two, treated water program two, treated water redundancy. Redundancy. Program three, diversifying the program three, diversifying the pot be supply, and developing pot be supply, and developing non-potable supply. Non-potable supply. And four and five, it it is a and four and five, it it is a combination of the first combination of the first proprogram plus these regional proprogram plus these regional partnerships and programs that partnerships and programs that we can take advantage of. We can take advantage of. So, we wanted to identify what so, we wanted to identify what do we need to do next? Do we need to do next? When do we need to do this? When do we need to do this? We looked at the water we need, we looked at the water we need, maximum day demand — and maximum day demand — and looking as the water that is looking as the water that is ultimately available — and if ultimately available — and if there’s a gap, how do we fill there’s a gap, how do we fill that gap? That gap? So you can look at a five-year so you can look at a five-year timeframe, or 50 years out — timeframe, or 50 years out — and that’s how we looked at and that’s how we looked at these projects of what cannot these projects of what cannot only meet a near-term but what only meet a near-term but what also would help meet long-term. Also would help meet long-term. There’s some projects that can there’s some projects that can do both right away and others do both right away and others you build on, that’s part of the you build on, that’s part of the implementation plan to build on implementation plan to build on these projects, you have one these projects, you have one project, then a second, project, then a second, ultimately get to where you need ultimately get to where you need to be in 50 years in smaller to be in 50 years in smaller increments. Increments. So, from, phasing and trigger so, from, phasing and trigger points, you know, you’ll see points, you know, you’ll see this kind of on one of the this kind of on one of the larger printouts, the last page larger printouts, the last page of the handout you have, is of the handout you have, is looking at the current phase. Looking at the current phase. That’s just everything we’re that’s just everything we’re doing to date. Doing to date. Phase two is okay, how do we phase two is okay, how do we reach — or when we reach 35 reach — or when we reach 35 million gallons per day as a million gallons per day as a maximum build out, you know, maximum build out, you know, what does that then do for any what does that then do for any of the potential vulnerabilities of the potential vulnerabilities and what do we need to do to and what do we need to do to mitigate, so on down the list mitigate, so on down the list from 3, 4, and 5. From 3, 4, and 5. Number 5 is, you know, when we number 5 is, you know, when we meet potentially max of 50 mgd, meet potentially max of 50 mgd, in the dryest-year event, with in the dryest-year event, with this model that shows these this model that shows these hot/dry projections which hot/dry projections which basically is the least amount of basically is the least amount of snow pack that you would have in snow pack that you would have in a given year, and the hottest a given year, and the hottest year, and so, the probability of year, and so, the probability of that was low, plus we’re not that was low, plus we’re not projected to ever reach 50 projected to ever reach 50 million gallons per day, that’s million gallons per day, that’s just the capacity of our plant. Just the capacity of our plant. So we’ve addressed each of those so we’ve addressed each of those in the implementation plan. In the implementation plan. And this goes, you can see the and this goes, you can see the different phases listed there. Different phases listed there. I really won’t read all these I really won’t read all these because they’re provided in the because they’re provided in the report plashings they’re — report plashings they’re — report, plus they’re provided in report, plus they’re provided in the executive summary. The executive summary. It’s really looking at each it’s really looking at each program, base program then one, program, base program then one, two, three and four. Two, three and four. Each one addresses different each one addresses different needs within the city, needs within the city, potentially, depending on what potentially, depending on what we would needs to achieve, what we would needs to achieve, what we’re trying to do. We’re trying to do. You could see kind of the timing you could see kind of the timing ever where we broke these down ever where we broke these down in terms of, okay, things we do in terms of, okay, things we do now through 2035, through 2030, now through 2035, through 2030, 2050, et cetera, based on the 2050, et cetera, based on the city growing and continuing to city growing and continuing to evaluate the demands maybe on evaluate the demands maybe on every five-year basis on the every five-year basis on the growth of the city as well as growth of the city as well as state requirements and state law state requirements and state law impacts the use of water on impacts the use of water on customer by customer basis. Customer by customer basis. Then you have 2050 to 2070, I then you have 2050 to 2070, I don’t think I’ll be here to get don’t think I’ll be here to get into those but hopefully this into those but hopefully this will lay a great foundation for will lay a great foundation for whoever might be working on it whoever might be working on it at that time. At that time. So just a quick overview of some so just a quick overview of some of the different projects, but of the different projects, but looking at existing raw water looking at existing raw water pipeline, existing intake, you pipeline, existing intake, you know, how can we potentially use know, how can we potentially use folsom south canal to bring folsom south canal to bring water back to the treatment water back to the treatment plant. Plant. This from a planning perspective this from a planning perspective could be anywhere from 500,000 could be anywhere from 500,000 to 1 million dollars to develop to 1 million dollars to develop the plans and everything and the plans and everything and then go into construction which then go into construction which is a larger ticketed item, is a larger ticketed item, that’s probably 25 to 30-million that’s probably 25 to 30-million dollar project to do so. Dollar project to do so. Butses really, you know, from a butses really, you know, from a foundational perspective, foundational perspective, identify the new intake identify the new intake location, or develop the location, or develop the analysis for that, develop any analysis for that, develop any emergency response plans for emergency response plans for things that could happen at the things that could happen at the treatment plant. Treatment plant. Develop your plan for the develop your plan for the non-potable water system, and non-potable water system, and what you might be able to do what you might be able to do there. There. And what then that does to and what then that does to reduce your pot be water needs. Reduce your pot be water needs. And the two others are really and the two others are really the partnerships with our local the partnerships with our local agency that’s have access to agency that’s have access to both groundwater and surface both groundwater and surface water. Water. That one, in my opinion, is very that one, in my opinion, is very important because they do have important because they do have that groundwater component that that groundwater component that the city just does not have. The city just does not have. That plays an important role that plays an important role when looking at diversifying when looking at diversifying your supply. Your supply. Phase two is, you know, if we phase two is, you know, if we get to a point where we feel get to a point where we feel designing a new intake and raw designing a new intake and raw water pipeline is reasonable, I water pipeline is reasonable, I mean, then we would come back to mean, then we would come back to city council and say, hey, look, city council and say, hey, look, this is an option this is how this is an option this is how much it might cost. Much it might cost. Then we’d figure out at that then we’d figure out at that time are there any potential time are there any potential rate impacts, is it something rate impacts, is it something you issue bonds for, et cetera. You issue bonds for, et cetera. We’d have to figure all that out we’d have to figure all that out and then determine whether or and then determine whether or not that’s something we would not that’s something we would proceed widentifiing the supply proceed widentifiing the supply options with our partners around options with our partners around the region. The region. Design and constructing the design and constructing the non-potable system for the area non-potable system for the area south of highway 50 not only south of highway 50 not only folsom plan area but area in and folsom plan area but area in and around arrow jet so glen borrow around arrow jet so glen borrow and easton project, if you’re and easton project, if you’re familiar, and continuing familiar, and continuing regional partnerships to look at regional partnerships to look at those relationships and those relationships and projects. Projects. You know, fizz three — phase you know, fizz three — phase three, in 2050-2070 timeframe is three, in 2050-2070 timeframe is looking at areas even further looking at areas even further outside of kind of the folsom outside of kind of the folsom courage sannal region, and courage sannal region, and looking in the south county for looking in the south county for partnerships for bringing in partnerships for bringing in either treated groundwater or either treated groundwater or groundwater to a new water groundwater to a new water treatment plant, main somewhere treatment plant, main somewhere in the plan area or do we try to in the plan area or do we try to bring that water all the way up bring that water all the way up to the treatment plant here to the treatment plant here north — just down the street. North — just down the street. Nd again, continuing to nd again, continuing to collaborate with our regional collaborate with our regional partners as to how we might be partners as to how we might be able to move water around and able to move water around and then phases four and five, it then phases four and five, it really further out there and really further out there and undetermined at this point in undetermined at this point in terms of what cost might be — terms of what cost might be — but that then expands our but that then expands our partnership north of the partnership north of the american river, maybe south of american river, maybe south of american river, in terms of american river, in terms of access groundwater getting that access groundwater getting that into the city’s system. Into the city’s system. So, that’s kind of a high level so, that’s kind of a high level of everything that’s in the of everything that’s in the report. Report. Some of the next steps is, you some of the next steps is, you know, looking at the nonpottable know, looking at the nonpottable feasibility study. Feasibility study. We have finished, kind of a we have finished, kind of a non-potable water master plan non-potable water master plan that identifies the ultimate that identifies the ultimate needs in terms of demands, and needs in terms of demands, and so next steps would be to work so next steps would be to work with arrow jet rocket dine to with arrow jet rocket dine to identify what are your current identify what are your current get treatment capacities that get treatment capacities that the city has access to, which is the city has access to, which is closer to prairie city road and closer to prairie city road and white rock road, in that corner white rock road, in that corner of their property. Of their property. We do have an agreement with we do have an agreement with arrow jet that — it was arrow arrow jet that — it was arrow jet now arrow jet rocket dine — jet now arrow jet rocket dine — to allow the city to make use of to allow the city to make use of the treatment there. The treatment there. How do we take it and put it how do we take it and put it into purple pipe system. Into purple pipe system. We’re currently under contract we’re currently under contract with scan tech. With scan tech. They are eventualing an option they are eventualing an option to — evaluating an option to to — evaluating an option to have intake in the american have intake in the american river downstream of the folsom river downstream of the folsom reservoir about where prison reservoir about where prison property and does property meet property and does property meet by the robin’s ravine, walking by the robin’s ravine, walking bridge, right? That area where bridge, right? That area where we would potentially put in a we would potentially put in a new intake and pump water up and new intake and pump water up and then to the treatment plant so then to the treatment plant so we wouldn’t be reliant on the we wouldn’t be reliant on the pipeline coming from the dam. Pipeline coming from the dam. So we have that in process and so we have that in process and should wrap in late spring, should wrap in late spring, early summer, and we’ll know early summer, and we’ll know what the constraints are and what the constraints are and permitting requirements, and permitting requirements, and opinion of cost on that. Opinion of cost on that. Developing the golden state developing the golden state water cop — company in south water cop — company in south county — we arer verbally county — we arer verbally committed. Committed. Once — this will be a future once — this will be a future item in a month often the water item in a month often the water form agreement but when that is form agreement but when that is signed and adopted we’re all signed and adopted we’re all working to develop options as to working to develop options as to how we might use water within how we might use water within sac county. Sac county. The south of sac county’s area, the south of sac county’s area, south of the american river, south of the american river, sorry for fumbling words — sorry for fumbling words — south of the american river — south of the american river — and bringing that into the city. And bringing that into the city. We have partners through san we have partners through san juan, fair oaks, citrus heights juan, fair oaks, citrus heights water district, that are north water district, that are north of the american river and can we of the american river and can we develop that partnership to develop that partnership to either exchange water or bring either exchange water or bring treated groundwater into the treated groundwater into the city from north of the american city from north of the american river. River. That hasn’t happened yet. That hasn’t happened yet. I have been in initial contacts I have been in initial contacts with citrus heights water with citrus heights water district, fair oaks water district, fair oaks water district will, I think, shortly district will, I think, shortly go under a new change with their go under a new change with their general manager, I believe he’s general manager, I believe he’s getting ready to retire, so we getting ready to retire, so we are waiting until a new general are waiting until a new general manager is in place so we’re not manager is in place so we’re not having to do our discussions having to do our discussions twice with that. Twice with that. And then this is fairly new, but and then this is fairly new, but the last bullet is raw water the last bullet is raw water parallel pipeline discussion. Parallel pipeline discussion. I believe we’ll have a meeting I believe we’ll have a meeting with cdcr here in a couple weeks with cdcr here in a couple weeks with chief green and brian, the with chief green and brian, the city manager, and I was invited city manager, and I was invited because I do have questions because I do have questions about how we would partner for a about how we would partner for a parallel pipeline through prison parallel pipeline through prison property from the — wouldn’t property from the — wouldn’t necessarily go all the way up to necessarily go all the way up to folsom dam and reservoir, but folsom dam and reservoir, but right outside their gates on right outside their gates on lake natoma crossing, the lake natoma crossing, the pipeline actually goes through pipeline actually goes through prison property now the raw prison property now the raw water pipeline through our water pipeline through our treatment plant so we want to treatment plant so we want to initiate discussions as to how initiate discussions as to how we might partner with them to we might partner with them to install a parallel pipeline install a parallel pipeline through their property as well. Through their property as well. So with that, I will take any so with that, I will take any questions. Questions. But, I guess, I really want to but, I guess, I really want to thank our stakeholder group thank our stakeholder group because it was six meetings that because it was six meetings that were hour and half, most of them were hour and half, most of them two hours long, on a Tuesday two hours long, on a Tuesday evening, plus any homework we evening, plus any homework we had between meetings, the public had between meetings, the public that came out that wasn’t part that came out that wasn’t part of the stakeholder group had a of the stakeholder group had a lost positive feedback and good lost positive feedback and good input, which was nice, you know, input, which was nice, you know, our communications team getting our communications team getting the word out, the survey out, the word out, the survey out, doing everything to get out the doing everything to get out the message as best we could, and message as best we could, and our consultant team was very our consultant team was very helpful with all of this. Helpful with all of this. We did have formal we did have formal councilmembers as particle — councilmembers as particle — part of the stakeholder group part of the stakeholder group and also current councilmember. And also current councilmember. If there’s anything specific if there’s anything specific councilmember leary would want councilmember leary would want to address, I’m sure she can to address, I’m sure she can fill you in. Fill you in. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you so much marcus and thank you so much marcus and to all of the staff and to all of the staff and stakeholders. Stakeholders. Questions, councilmember questions, councilmember kozlowski. Kozlowski. What’s the long-term what’s the long-term responsibility of our water responsibility of our water department for providing water department for providing water to the developments on the arrow to the developments on the arrow jet property? Jet property? Mentioned them briefly. Mentioned them briefly. Yeah, so, if you look at when yeah, so, if you look at when the — easton and glenboro, they the — easton and glenboro, they are physically situated in the are physically situated in the city’s water service area, it’s city’s water service area, it’s different boundary than city different boundary than city limit boundary so because limit boundary so because they’re in that boundary we’re they’re in that boundary we’re on gated to serve them as a on gated to serve them as a customer base for water supply. Customer base for water supply. You mentioned them when you you mentioned them when you were talking about alternative were talking about alternative intakes from the american river intakes from the american river closer towards the prison — was closer towards the prison — was that always part of discussion that always part of discussion with those developments? With those developments? Or was the supposition that they or was the supposition that they were going to get served from were going to get served from our existing plant and water our existing plant and water supply? Supply? They were always part of our they were always part of our existing treatment plant supply. Existing treatment plant supply. When we look at the overall when we look at the overall capacity of the plant, the capacity of the plant, the demands to serve those areas are demands to serve those areas are included in our maximum and included in our maximum and average data demand, we include average data demand, we include those in our calculations. Those in our calculations. Got you. Got you. And then what is being done with and then what is being done with the treated water from the arrow the treated water from the arrow jet property right now, from jet property right now, from their processing? Their processing? So currently they just so currently they just sprayed overland or put did in sprayed overland or put did in ponds and from the ponds they ponds and from the ponds they have a non-potable fire system have a non-potable fire system on site. On site. And so, they can use that water and so, they can use that water for their non-potable fire for their non-potable fire suppression system. Suppression system. They used to use it for cooling they used to use it for cooling purposes when they were high in purposes when they were high in production for their testing production for their testing facilities. Facilities. That obviously is no longer that obviously is no longer there. There. So the demand on that is a lot so the demand on that is a lot lower than it used to be. Lower than it used to be. But they typically have it over but they typically have it over land and it percolates and land and it percolates and naturally recharges what was naturally recharges what was treated. Treated. Gets treated again gets treated again eventually. Eventually. Yep. Yep. It’s just what they’re putting it’s just what they’re putting back on meets the requirements. Back on meets the requirements. But they’re not currently but they’re not currently exporting any of that water? Exporting any of that water? Not from the get ab facility not from the get ab facility which is where our agreement is, which is where our agreement is, get is short for groundwater and get is short for groundwater and extraction, they have others, et extraction, they have others, et cetera, they have arrangement cetera, they have arrangement with other purveyors in the with other purveyors in the region where they discharge that region where they discharge that in the american river and in the american river and someone will pick it up as part someone will pick it up as part of their portfolio and treat it of their portfolio and treat it but it’s blended by the time it but it’s blended by the time it gets there, it’s not directly gets there, it’s not directly piped. Piped. Okay. Okay. If that is usable as landscaping if that is usable as landscaping water through purple pipe that water through purple pipe that seems the easiest of all of seems the easiest of all of stuff you described. Stuff you described. Yes. Yes. That’s what we want to do next that’s what we want to do next now that we know what the now that we know what the demands are in the plan area and demands are in the plan area and easton glenborough area, can we easton glenborough area, can we meet the peek demands with the meet the peek demands with the existing infrastructure that existing infrastructure that arrow jet has on property? Arrow jet has on property? We don’t believe they can. We don’t believe they can. Because they’re not built to because they’re not built to meet, like, peek irrigation meet, like, peek irrigation demand. Demand. That’s the next step, that’s the next step, determining what that would need determining what that would need to be in terms of to be in terms of infrastructure, and then how do infrastructure, and then how do we modify their discharge permit we modify their discharge permit to include non-potable to include non-potable irrigation. Irrigation. Got you. Got you. Thank you for all this work and thank you for all this work and for the reminder why I loved for the reminder why I loved being on the utility commission being on the utility commission way back when. Way back when. Councilmember rohrbough, any councilmember rohrbough, any questions? Questions? Councilmember leary? Councilmember leary? Thank you, marcus, it was thank you, marcus, it was actually a lot of fun exercises actually a lot of fun exercises there, a lot of work, and I was there, a lot of work, and I was really impressed with the number really impressed with the number of people from the community of people from the community that just showed up to learn that just showed up to learn what was going on and asked a what was going on and asked a lot of questions, had a lot of lot of questions, had a lot of experts there that helped us experts there that helped us come to the final conclusions come to the final conclusions that you put together. That you put together. One thing that I think that we one thing that I think that we discussed and probably not in discussed and probably not in great deal was the cost for all great deal was the cost for all these necessary improvements, these necessary improvements, you know, provide a redundant you know, provide a redundant system for, you know, water system for, you know, water transport out of the american transport out of the american river, using the purple pipe, river, using the purple pipe, perhaps for the arrow jet water perhaps for the arrow jet water and for, you know, improving a and for, you know, improving a system for treating all of the system for treating all of the water. Water. And that would be something, if and that would be something, if you have to come back and ask you have to come back and ask for repairs, and/or the addition for repairs, and/or the addition of a redundant system that you of a redundant system that you would bring back. Would bring back. I don’t know if you could come I don’t know if you could come up with any ballpark figures to up with any ballpark figures to share with the council and what share with the council and what the sources of that money might the sources of that money might be. Be. So, I think, first of all, so, I think, first of all, thank you councilmember leary thank you councilmember leary for serving on the stakeholder for serving on the stakeholder group. Group. In terms of cost, you know, the in terms of cost, you know, the planning and some of the initial planning and some of the initial , you know, feasibility, , you know, feasibility, you’re probably in one to 2 you’re probably in one to 2 million maybe 2.5 million range. Million maybe 2.5 million range. In terms of implementing these in terms of implementing these projects there’s probably a projects there’s probably a range of 50 million on the low range of 50 million on the low end to 175 to 200 million on the end to 175 to 200 million on the high end when you are looking at high end when you are looking at a project — if you’re to, let’s a project — if you’re to, let’s say, install wells in an area say, install wells in an area south of the american river, south of the american river, within sacramento county, within sacramento county, install the infrastructure then install the infrastructure then pump that book into our system pump that book into our system and distribute. And distribute. So those are probably the so those are probably the bookends in terms of project bookends in terms of project costs. Costs. Now I haven’t calculated what now I haven’t calculated what that might mean on a that might mean on a per-ratepayer basis, but in per-ratepayer basis, but in terms of project cost you’re terms of project cost you’re probably 50 million on one end, probably 50 million on one end, 175 — by the time you get there 175 — by the time you get there probably 200 to 225 million if probably 200 to 225 million if you are 40 years out. You are 40 years out. And what were the priorities and what were the priorities for improvements? For improvements? The priorities, I think there the priorities, I think there was two that in my opinion was two that in my opinion really stood out, one was really stood out, one was getting the redundancy built in getting the redundancy built in to the pipeline from the to the pipeline from the reservoir to the treatment plant reservoir to the treatment plant and then the redundancy within and then the redundancy within the treatment plant itself. The treatment plant itself. The second, as councilmember the second, as councilmember kozlowski pointed out, kind of kozlowski pointed out, kind of the low-hanging one, was the the low-hanging one, was the non-potable supply. Non-potable supply. Although that doesn’t reduce all although that doesn’t reduce all your demands, it could take off your demands, it could take off four to six percent, ultimately, four to six percent, ultimately, at build-out. At build-out. So those were the two big ones. So those were the two big ones. And the third, not in a and the third, not in a particular order, but particular order, but diversification of the water diversification of the water supply so those potential supply so those potential agreements and projects with our agreements and projects with our neighboring agency that’s do neighboring agency that’s do have access to surface water and have access to surface water and groundwater and it was probably groundwater and it was probably more focused on the south of the more focused on the south of the american river than north of the american river than north of the american river because those american river because those contractual relationships would contractual relationships would be with each of those agencies, be with each of those agencies, if we did go north with fair if we did go north with fair oaks or citrus heights we’d also oaks or citrus heights we’d also have to bring in san juan water have to bring in san juan water district not necessarily with a district not necessarily with a project but you ultimately the project but you ultimately the contracts of air oaks and citrus contracts of air oaks and citrus heights are with san juan water heights are with san juan water district so it adds another district so it adds another wrinkle. Wrinkle. I’d say those are the order of I’d say those are the order of the feedback. The feedback. So resources for costs other so resources for costs other than adding that to ratepayers than adding that to ratepayers monthly bills would be grant monthly bills would be grant funding? Funding? State? State? Federal? Federal? Both. Both. All of the above. All of the above. One thing I do know that’s one thing I do know that’s offered under reclamation water offered under reclamation water smart program, I believe, they smart program, I believe, they do have what is called title 16, do have what is called title 16, and it’s for re-use, recycling and it’s for re-use, recycling non-potable water options. Non-potable water options. So that would be a potential so that would be a potential place to look. Place to look. The army corps has section 219 the army corps has section 219 that the region has used and two that the region has used and two agencies are currently using agencies are currently using that right now, pcwa, and city that right now, pcwa, and city of roseville, for 5.3 million or of roseville, for 5.3 million or so, to do a raw water supply so, to do a raw water supply project for their communities. Project for their communities. And so, that’s an option that we and so, that’s an option that we could look at, probably not could look at, probably not fiscal year ’27 but maybe ’28, fiscal year ’27 but maybe ’28, apply those two for the apply those two for the non-potable project, whether non-potable project, whether it’s the planning or design or it’s the planning or design or construction. Construction. And just one more question. And just one more question. What do you see on the horizon what do you see on the horizon for when we might be asked to — for when we might be asked to — or, you know, want to implement or, you know, want to implement moving down the ladder of these moving down the ladder of these improvements. Improvements. I could see either later this I could see either later this year, the first part of next year, the first part of next calendar year, the non-potable calendar year, the non-potable project, with arrow jet being project, with arrow jet being one that would come forward one that would come forward because the arrangement is because the arrangement is there, in terms of the agreement there, in terms of the agreement to use the water, it’s looking to use the water, it’s looking at can we use their existing at can we use their existing facilities, if we can how do we facilities, if we can how do we plug it into south of highway 50 plug it into south of highway 50 projects. Projects. If we cannot, what do we need to if we cannot, what do we need to do to upgrade those and then do to upgrade those and then plum into the existing plum into the existing infrastructure. Infrastructure. And as mentioned, from and as mentioned, from permitting perspective what do permitting perspective what do we need to do to modify their we need to do to modify their permit to allow us to use that permit to allow us to use that in purple pipe. In purple pipe. That’s probably the first and that’s probably the first and then maybe soon or right after then maybe soon or right after or in conjunction would be a or in conjunction would be a parallel pipeline. Parallel pipeline. That might even come sooner. That might even come sooner. I think a lot of it might depend I think a lot of it might depend on the discussion we have, I on the discussion we have, I believe, next month to see how believe, next month to see how fast we might be able to fast we might be able to moreover with the state to start moreover with the state to start looking at the feasibility of a looking at the feasibility of a parallel pipeline and what that parallel pipeline and what that also means for their supply. Also means for their supply. Investigating all of those investigating all of those plumbing questions is important plumbing questions is important right now because the right now because the improvements to prairie city improvements to prairie city road are coming sooner rather road are coming sooner rather than later at this point. Than later at this point. So. So. Okay. Okay. Thank you. Thank you. Councilmember aquino? Councilmember aquino? I just have a question about I just have a question about the prison actually. The prison actually. So they have their own water so they have their own water rights and own treatment plant. Rights and own treatment plant. Correct. Correct. Okay. Okay. So, if our water treatment plant so, if our water treatment plant were to be compromised, could we were to be compromised, could we rely on them in short-term. Rely on them in short-term. They don’t have the capacity. They don’t have the capacity. And we’re not connected to their and we’re not connected to their system. System. Okay. Okay. Thank you. Thank you. Just one or two from me. Just one or two from me. Your demand projections, you your demand projections, you know, you showed the water know, you showed the water supply and water use, we really supply and water use, we really use less water today than we did use less water today than we did before a lot of the growth we’ve before a lot of the growth we’ve experienced, and then you said experienced, and then you said well the demand projections well the demand projections might go up, right? Might go up, right? But so far, our trend has been but so far, our trend has been declining or flat. Declining or flat. So I was just kind of — maybe so I was just kind of — maybe councilmember kozlowski brought councilmember kozlowski brought this up — is it easton and this up — is it easton and glenborough I imagine those will glenborough I imagine those will be developed as super efficient be developed as super efficient households also. Households also. So where are we seeing this so where are we seeing this massive increase in supply massive increase in supply that’s needed? That’s needed? So I think the two biggest so I think the two biggest areas are all south of highway areas are all south of highway 50. 50. I believe ultimately, I mean, I believe ultimately, I mean, right now we’re right around right now we’re right around 18,500 to 19,000 acre feet per 18,500 to 19,000 acre feet per year. Year. At build out we anticipated to at build out we anticipated to be around 25,000 acre feet per be around 25,000 acre feet per year. Year. That is ultimately all of south that is ultimately all of south of highway 50 in folsom plan of highway 50 in folsom plan area plus all of what is in area plus all of what is in glenborough easton area. Glenborough easton area. We have minor infield project we have minor infield project north of highway 50 but minimum north of highway 50 but minimum water use compared to any area water use compared to any area south of highway 50 in terms of south of highway 50 in terms of potential growth and vacant potential growth and vacant land. Land. I anticipate, though, based on I anticipate, though, based on the state requirements and state the state requirements and state law and the drive and the, you law and the drive and the, you know, continued driving down of know, continued driving down of water use on per-property basis, water use on per-property basis, based on their water use based on their water use efficiency mandates, our efficiency mandates, our ultimate target set by the state ultimate target set by the state will be closer to 23,000 acre will be closer to 23,000 acre feet ultimately at build out. Feet ultimately at build out. So between now and, I think, so between now and, I think, it’s 2045, it’s 4,000 acre foot it’s 2045, it’s 4,000 acre foot increase over the next 20, 19 or increase over the next 20, 19 or 20 years. 20 years. So it’s not that much in terms so it’s not that much in terms of the grand scheme of ultimate of the grand scheme of ultimate build out. Build out. Okay. Okay. And, just for context, the and, just for context, the city’s contractual water rights city’s contractual water rights and water repayment contracts and water repayment contracts with the central valley project with the central valley project is 34,000 acre feet. Is 34,000 acre feet. So that would leave you with so that would leave you with roughly, you know, 10 to 11,000 roughly, you know, 10 to 11,000 acre feet of contractual water acre feet of contractual water that is not use used. That is not use used. And then my second question and then my second question is really, we have a contingency is really, we have a contingency plan with this, we’ve been plan with this, we’ve been rereliing on single raw water rereliing on single raw water outlet for the history of the outlet for the history of the city. City. Right? Right? So we have a contingency plan in so we have a contingency plan in place for that failure, right? Place for that failure, right? Yeah, so there’s a couple yeah, so there’s a couple things we could do. Things we could do. We could minimize obviously the we could minimize obviously the direct impacts by turning to two direct impacts by turning to two connections we have, one with connections we have, one with golden state water company right golden state water company right by nature wood, one with san by nature wood, one with san juan water district, right by juan water district, right by rainbow bridge. Rainbow bridge. But that is one of our biggest but that is one of our biggest concerns is a full-scale failure concerns is a full-scale failure of that pipeline from the dam of that pipeline from the dam basically to the treatment basically to the treatment plant. Plant. And so, that’s why that one is and so, that’s why that one is kind of a high-priority item is kind of a high-priority item is to get that parallel pipeline in to get that parallel pipeline in so we, for the most part, so we, for the most part, mitigate that as a potential mitigate that as a potential option. Option. And then we to have, with the and then we to have, with the bureau of reclamation, they do bureau of reclamation, they do have floating pumps they can set have floating pumps they can set out, they’ve done this before, out, they’ve done this before, that we can set out. That we can set out. I guess my question is, I can I guess my question is, I can keep a second car in my driveway keep a second car in my driveway because my first car might fail because my first car might fail at any time but the idea I’m at any time but the idea I’m going to pay for a second car, going to pay for a second car, keep it operational at any given keep it operational at any given time ands going to be running time ands going to be running when I go out if my first car when I go out if my first car doesn’t start, doesn’t make a doesn’t start, doesn’t make a lot of sense, right? Lot of sense, right? Instead I maybe will have instead I maybe will have contingency plans if my car contingency plans if my car needs to be fixed or replaced I needs to be fixed or replaced I would need a week to do that so would need a week to do that so we have a plan in place if this we have a plan in place if this fails, it would take a week to fails, it would take a week to get it back up and running? Get it back up and running? A month? A month? We’d truck water in? We’d truck water in? You know. You know. We’d have a contingency plan we’d have a contingency plan that is there. That is there. So we did have a failure in so we did have a failure in 2009, it took 14 to 16 hours to 2009, it took 14 to 16 hours to get a parallel pipeline in get a parallel pipeline in place. Place. Because it is raw water it’s not because it is raw water it’s not treated. Treated. You don’t have to worry about you don’t have to worry about getting the — the potable getting the — the potable drinking water pipe in place to drinking water pipe in place to get that raw water from there. Get that raw water from there. So, yeah, we have options if so, yeah, we have options if that were to happen. That were to happen. We’ve got contractors that can we’ve got contractors that can do the work. Do the work. It’s just — we’d — if it’s a it’s just — we’d — if it’s a small section versus large small section versus large section the timing could be section the timing could be different. Different. If it’s just one stick of pipe if it’s just one stick of pipe it could be faster than — this it could be faster than — this was couple hundred feed in 2009. Was couple hundred feed in 2009. That’s my question, what that’s my question, what makes more sense. Makes more sense. Is this planning for the is this planning for the temporary failure? Temporary failure? Or putting in a whole other set or putting in a whole other set of things? Of things? That’s where my questions really that’s where my questions really are. Are. Is this temporary fix versus the is this temporary fix versus the fully redundant system. Fully redundant system. Yeah, I completely understand yeah, I completely understand that. That. And I think one of the things, and I think one of the things, part of discussion is how do we part of discussion is how do we balance being able then if we balance being able then if we did have a parallel pipeline — did have a parallel pipeline — as a scenario — we can take the as a scenario — we can take the main pipe out of service, do a main pipe out of service, do a full inspection and repairs on a full inspection and repairs on a scheduled routine basis because scheduled routine basis because we know you have to get back in we know you have to get back in there to do some type of repair, there to do some type of repair, could be a pinhole leak, but could be a pinhole leak, but we’d have to get in and do some we’d have to get in and do some sort of fix to it, a parallel sort of fix to it, a parallel pipe offers a lot of flexibility pipe offers a lot of flexibility to keep, so, if — in your week to keep, so, if — in your week scenario you can keep it off scenario you can keep it off longer if you find other things longer if you find other things that require more than one week. That require more than one week. Fair. Fair. Things we all have to balance things we all have to balance and talk about. And talk about. It all comes down to cost cost, it all comes down to cost cost, that’s part of what we have to that’s part of what we have to balance and discuss. Balance and discuss. Thank you so much. Thank you so much. I appreciate your presentation I appreciate your presentation this evening. This evening. All right, thank you, all. All right, thank you, all. That takes you to the consent that takes you to the consent calendar. Calendar. All right. All right. Items to pull from the consent items to pull from the consent calendar this evening?

I wonder if the chief can I wonder if the chief can come up and kind of explain to come up and kind of explain to us what this officer does, what us what this officer does, what their responsibilities are, and their responsibilities are, and if he’s got any information if he’s got any information about the availability of people about the availability of people who are equally as qualified to who are equally as qualified to per form this job in this regio. Per form this job in this regio. Good evening, MR. Mayor, vice good evening, MR. Mayor, vice mayor, council, staff. Mayor, council, staff. Jason — fire chief. Jason — fire chief. I can speak, councilmember I can speak, councilmember leary, to a couple of your leary, to a couple of your points. Points. The one that I will just the one that I will just admittum– admit up front I admittum– admit up front I don’t have history or ability to don’t have history or ability to speak on how many folks might be speak on how many folks might be qualified to serve in this role qualified to serve in this role but the medical director is a but the medical director is a critical role for any fire critical role for any fire department that provides department that provides emergency medical services, that emergency medical services, that role includes medical oversight role includes medical oversight for e emts and development and for e emts and development and interpretation of clinical interpretation of clinical protocol, quality asewerrance, protocol, quality asewerrance, training and reretimed training and reretimed consultantation during high risk consultantation during high risk events. Events. There’s increasing complexity there’s increasing complexity for the role of medical for the role of medical director. Director. In fact ems has been recognized in fact ems has been recognized as subcategory of emergency as subcategory of emergency medicine. Medicine. And there actually is a board and there actually is a board certification that qualifies certification that qualifies those folks to be considered an those folks to be considered an expert in their field as the expert in their field as the role as it relates to DR. Sloan, role as it relates to DR. Sloan, I would say, our experience — I would say, our experience — it would be understatement to it would be understatement to say we’re very pleased with the say we’re very pleased with the service. Service. He’s available after hours, in he’s available after hours, in the evening and has expanded his the evening and has expanded his role with the department, in role with the department, in terms of assisting us in grant terms of assisting us in grant fund writing. Fund writing. He was successful — he was successful — councilmember aquino set the councilmember aquino set the ground announcement — but he ground announcement — but he was successful in helping us was successful in helping us write a 30,000 dollar grant for write a 30,000 dollar grant for devices we use for cpr. Devices we use for cpr. He sits on several advisory he sits on several advisory groups. Groups. He is a liaison for us to the he is a liaison for us to the ems section. Ems section. And really has just made himself and really has just made himself available and responsive to our available and responsive to our needs. Needs. And again, to speak to who might and again, to speak to who might be qualified, I don’t know. Be qualified, I don’t know. We’ve not engaged in we’ve not engaged in conversation outside of those conversation outside of those we’ve had with DR. Sloan. We’ve had with DR. Sloan. When DR. Sloan was selected to when DR. Sloan was selected to serve as our medical director serve as our medical director there were as I understand, there were as I understand, three individuals who submitted three individuals who submitted applications, there was an applications, there was an interview process and he was the interview process and he was the individual chosen based on his individual chosen based on his credentials and demeanor. Credentials and demeanor. So, how long has he actually so, how long has he actually been contracted with the city? Been contracted with the city? Is this the end of his first is this the end of his first three–year term? Three–year term? That’s correct. That’s correct. Yeah, that’s correct. Yeah, that’s correct. We signed a contract with we signed a contract with DR. Sloan as a representative DR. Sloan as a representative through the permanente medical through the permanente medical group in December of ’22. Group in December of ’22. His contract actually expires his contract actually expires this month. This month. As we were writing the as we were writing the resolution and recommendations, resolution and recommendations, again, the feedback that I had again, the feedback that I had received from entire agency and received from entire agency and many of our regional partners many of our regional partners was that he was — he was an was that he was — he was an individual that was really a individual that was really a standout in his field. Standout in his field. Thank you. Thank you. Yeah yeah, I’m just wondering yeah yeah, I’m just wondering what the impetus would be to what the impetus would be to make this change at this point make this change at this point since the fire department seems since the fire department seems to be happy with him. To be happy with him. He’s doing a good job. He’s doing a good job. I think the cost is likely I think the cost is likely reasonable, given surveys done reasonable, given surveys done in other areas. In other areas. So, you know, unless somebody is so, you know, unless somebody is looking for cost-savings or looking for cost-savings or something else, I don’t see any something else, I don’t see any need to make this a one-year need to make this a one-year contract and do further contract and do further investigation. Investigation. I’ll speak to the impetus to I’ll speak to the impetus to this. This. I met with one of our health I met with one of our health agencies that’s active in agencies that’s active in folsom, and they have community folsom, and they have community benefit dollars, they’re benefit dollars, they’re required to put back into the required to put back into the community. Community. A number of other agencies a number of other agencies around the country. Around the country. Their emergency, their medical their emergency, their medical director for the fire agency is director for the fire agency is paid for with community benefit paid for with community benefit dollars from the local health dollars from the local health agency. Agency. When I saw this on the agenda when I saw this on the agenda and had a meeting with one of and had a meeting with one of our local health agencies they our local health agencies they said we might be interested in said we might be interested in partnering to foot that bill or partnering to foot that bill or providing the service in kind. Providing the service in kind. I reached out to chief he —- I reached out to chief he —- and said have you thought about and said have you thought about this. This. He said the contract is expiring he said the contract is expiring soon. Soon. So we talked and said maybe one so we talked and said maybe one year gives us a chance to year gives us a chance to investigate that. Investigate that. Maybe chief sloan stays on but maybe chief sloan stays on but instead through a different instead through a different agreement through four or five agreement through four or five health agencies we have here in health agencies we have here in folsom that are growing rapidly. Folsom that are growing rapidly. Yeah, I will just elaborate. Yeah, I will just elaborate. Absolutely. Absolutely. MR. Mayor, the contract MR. Mayor, the contract expires we’re required under expires we’re required under title 22 to have a medical title 22 to have a medical director, from a legal director, from a legal perspective, dea-controlled perspective, dea-controlled substance we have to have a substance we have to have a medical director with licensed medical director with licensed physician that is responsible physician that is responsible for the narcotic, again, not for the narcotic, again, not having an opportunity to meet having an opportunity to meet with any other individual from with any other individual from another health care, again, it’s another health care, again, it’s very possible there are other very possible there are other really qualified individuals, really qualified individuals, and again, at direction of the and again, at direction of the council I’m happy to meet with council I’m happy to meet with them and staff and go through them and staff and go through that process to thoughtfully that process to thoughtfully evaluate long-term solutions for evaluate long-term solutions for our medical director needs. Our medical director needs. I have a question about the I have a question about the length of availability of the length of availability of the community service dollars. Community service dollars. Is that something that is is that something that is indefinite? Indefinite? And was that — if you — you and was that — if you — you had that — you know, community had that — you know, community service dollars is something service dollars is something that is allocated annually from that is allocated annually from the source? The source? Or is this something that is an or is this something that is an ongoing benefit for that ongoing benefit for that particular provider? Particular provider? It’s community benefit funds it’s community benefit funds that they are put back into the that they are put back into the community. Community. From their institution. From their institution. They are required to put — they are required to put — since they’re a non-profit since they’re a non-profit health system they’re required health system they’re required to put community benefit dollars to put community benefit dollars back into the community every back into the community every year. Year. All I can tell you is other all I can tell you is other agencies are funding the medical agencies are funding the medical director through this very same director through this very same type of agreement. Type of agreement. I don’t know all of the details, I don’t know all of the details, I literally saw it on the agenda I literally saw it on the agenda last week and started the last week and started the discussions, this is where we discussions, this is where we are now. Are now. I don’t have all of the answers I don’t have all of the answers how it would work which is why how it would work which is why we’re saying let’s renew the we’re saying let’s renew the contract for just a year so contract for just a year so we’re not locked in. We’re not locked in. I agree the price is reasonable I agree the price is reasonable but 40,000 a year is 40,000 a but 40,000 a year is 40,000 a year, if someone else can foot year, if someone else can foot that bill for us we can put that bill for us we can put 40,000 into other things for our 40,000 into other things for our community. Community. And what is the benefit for and what is the benefit for that institution to provide the that institution to provide the community service dollars? Community service dollars? Is there any quid pro quo? Is there any quid pro quo? Or either kind of agreement in or either kind of agreement in place for that? Place for that? I wouldn’t think so. I wouldn’t think so. But I do think that us, you but I do think that us, you negotiation just like us you– negotiation just like us you– using the permanente group now, using the permanente group now, a good portion is we have that a good portion is we have that relationship with the health relationship with the health system. System. I don’t foresee anything I don’t foresee anything different to that other than different to that other than potentially a funding source. Potentially a funding source. May be the exact same individual May be the exact same individual with the exact same group, just with the exact same group, just a change in funding source. A change in funding source. But we don’t have the time 0 to but we don’t have the time 0 to chase that down. Chase that down. Right so there wasn’t an right so there wasn’t an opportunity to discuss all of opportunity to discuss all of the requirements for the person the requirements for the person who fulfills that position. Who fulfills that position. It’s not just to be able to use it’s not just to be able to use the license to prescribe the license to prescribe narcotics for the emts. Narcotics for the emts. No, I’ve not had any no, I’ve not had any opportunity to speak to any opportunity to speak to any other health care providers other health care providers about our needs and whether they about our needs and whether they have the ability. Have the ability. Like I said, it could be very like I said, it could be very possible that senate or dignity possible that senate or dignity or another health care provider or another health care provider has someone as qualified or has someone as qualified or maybe more. Maybe more. I don’t know. I don’t know. I just want to make sure I just want to make sure we’re getting the best care we’re getting the best care possible and the best training possible and the best training for our personnel possible with for our personnel possible with somebody that has that somebody that has that experience. Experience. Sure. Sure. And I will just add, on that and I will just add, on that point, I appreciate that — point, I appreciate that — is — I would absolutely is — I would absolutely recommend that that medical recommend that that medical director be an individual who is director be an individual who is trained and skilled in acute trained and skilled in acute medical services, an medical services, an er-physician in alignment with er-physician in alignment with the care we provide. The care we provide. Being an er-physician is an being an er-physician is an extraordinary life-saving extraordinary life-saving experience and I love my experience and I love my personal physician but I personal physician but I wouldn’t necessarily go to my wouldn’t necessarily go to my personal physician for an acute personal physician for an acute cardiac or arrest ailment, as cardiac or arrest ailment, as wonderful as she is. Wonderful as she is. I totally agree. I totally agree. Having worked in trauma center having worked in trauma center for 31 years I’m very sensitive for 31 years I’m very sensitive what we’re training our emts to what we’re training our emts to do and what support system they do and what support system they have in place. Have in place. It really ties into their it really ties into their ability to interface with the ability to interface with the county limsa protocol, county limsa protocol, cti training because they’re in cti training because they’re in acute medical services on daily acute medical services on daily basis. Basis. Absolutely. Absolutely. That answers all my that answers all my questions. Questions. I was curious about what the I was curious about what the incentive was going to be and incentive was going to be and long term available of community long term available of community dollar dollars since the health dollar dollars since the health care system is generally in care system is generally in trouble for reimbursements these trouble for reimbursements these days. Days. Thank you. Thank you. Councilmember aquino. Councilmember aquino. Question chief, currently we question chief, currently we share the expense with DR. Sloan share the expense with DR. Sloan and other agencies in the and other agencies in the region, correct? Region, correct? That’s not correct. That’s not correct. That was the model we had until that was the model we had until three years ago. Three years ago. We were in joint venture with we were in joint venture with permanente medical group for drl permanente medical group for drl director, provided that service director, provided that service to entire region. To entire region. As you can imagine, there is a as you can imagine, there is a high demand, especially for high demand, especially for large agencies like sac city and large agencies like sac city and sac metro, who felt they needed sac metro, who felt they needed more one-on-one with the medical more one-on-one with the medical director, given the size of the director, given the size of the agency and the role that agency and the role that individual plays. Individual plays. So the chiefs agreed to kind of so the chiefs agreed to kind of dissolve that partnership. Dissolve that partnership. And now each agency is and now each agency is independently — independently — — okay. — okay. I didn’t understand the timing. I didn’t understand the timing. For the past three years we have for the past three years we have only had DR. Sloan. Only had DR. Sloan. Correct. Correct. And to be fair he does provide and to be fair he does provide those services for el dorado those services for el dorado hills and on the committee for hills and on the committee for cal jack for their oversight and cal jack for their oversight and also for county protection. Also for county protection. They have a ambulance service in they have a ambulance service in the county. The county. Is he aware we’re having this is he aware we’re having this discussion tonight about discussion tonight about possibly doing one-year term. Possibly doing one-year term. He is. He is. He it wouldn’t jeopardize his he it wouldn’t jeopardize his desire. Desire. After discussions we reached after discussions we reached out and were very transparent out and were very transparent with DR. Sloan and the group and with DR. Sloan and the group and said would there be any said would there be any detriment for us amending the detriment for us amending the agreement from three-year to agreement from three-year to one-year.

My next question, I think my next question, I think might be for brian. Might be for brian. The community benefit dollars the community benefit dollars that the mayor is speaking of, I that the mayor is speaking of, I mean, to sign this contract for mean, to sign this contract for three years, we can figure how three years, we can figure how how to pay for it, get those how to pay for it, get those dollars from other funds without dollars from other funds without having to do a one-year having to do a one-year contract, correct? Contract, correct? Sure. Sure. I guess in many ways we don’t I guess in many ways we don’t know the answers definitely for know the answers definitely for those so what we’ve tried to those so what we’ve tried to demonstrate going forward is demonstrate going forward is we’ll look at any and all we’ll look at any and all options to provide the best options to provide the best service at lowest possible cost. Service at lowest possible cost. This is just one of those this is just one of those things. Things. Apreach — appreciate the chief apreach — appreciate the chief reaching out to DR. Sloan. Reaching out to DR. Sloan. The top priority is to make the the top priority is to make the community safe. Community safe. In his hands we’ll be safe. In his hands we’ll be safe. If we enter this 12-month if we enter this 12-month agreement we can answer the good agreement we can answer the good questions brought up from the questions brought up from the dais today to see if it is dais today to see if it is community dollars, how long, are community dollars, how long, are there alternatives, or maybe in there alternatives, or maybe in six months we say we have no six months we say we have no other options, let’s extend the other options, let’s extend the agreement with DR. Sloan, the agreement with DR. Sloan, the original time period. Original time period. I guess my question is, could I guess my question is, could we still use community benefit we still use community benefit dollars to pay for this contract dollars to pay for this contract because they’re community because they’re community benefit dollars? Benefit dollars? Yeah, it depends on the yeah, it depends on the arrangement. Arrangement. I can’t speak for the agency or I can’t speak for the agency or the institution that is the institution that is providing the community benefit providing the community benefit dollars. Dollars. Maybe they will provide the maybe they will provide the community benefit dollars in the community benefit dollars in the form of in-kind services. Form of in-kind services. Got it. Got it. So I don’t know if it will so I don’t know if it will just be a monetary donation or just be a monetary donation or they will make their license they will make their license professional to meet the professional to meet the criteria. Criteria. Okay. Okay. My other concern, these my other concern, these community benefit dollars, what community benefit dollars, what are we going to take it from? Are we going to take it from? Is going into folsom in some way is going into folsom in some way or another, if we’re going to or another, if we’re going to use it for this, what are we use it for this, what are we going to take it from? Going to take it from? What is it not going to? What is it not going to? We have a lot of things we need we have a lot of things we need in the community we can use this in the community we can use this money for. Money for. Those are all unknowns. Those are all unknowns. My concern is, this sounds like my concern is, this sounds like the guy. The guy. Right now we can trust him. Right now we can trust him. We have a lot of things the fire we have a lot of things the fire department is facing. Department is facing. I’m not sure I want your I’m not sure I want your attention or our attention attention or our attention financially and medically, and financially and medically, and training to go this next year, training to go this next year, obviously wouldn’t take a lot of obviously wouldn’t take a lot of attention. Attention. You — but, yeah, I’m concerned. I’d rather have this guy three I’d rather have this guy three years, I think we’re solving a years, I think we’re solving a problem we don’t have. Problem we don’t have. I understand the thought process I understand the thought process behind it and I think three behind it and I think three years would tie this guy in years would tie this guy in essentially. Essentially. And give us even more time to and give us even more time to kind of figure out how we can kind of figure out how we can make changes going forward. Make changes going forward. So it doesn’t matter. So it doesn’t matter. I’m really 50/50 on this. I’m really 50/50 on this. I don’t want to lose this guy, I don’t want to lose this guy, that’s how I feel. That’s how I feel. Sure. Sure. Can I add to that? Can I add to that? Sure. Sure. So I definitely appreciate. So I definitely appreciate. We don’t want to lose him, for we don’t want to lose him, for sure. Sure. And the community benefit dollar and the community benefit dollar situation is actually a new situation is actually a new situation for us. Situation for us. And part of that is, the and part of that is, the investment of essentially four investment of essentially four large medical providers coming large medical providers coming into town and we’ve just started into town and we’ve just started these conversations where these conversations where they’ve been meeting with our they’ve been meeting with our parks and recreation department, parks and recreation department, like, hey, what can we do to like, hey, what can we do to make an impact in the community. Make an impact in the community. Part of it is we have literally part of it is we have literally no idea what areas they’re no idea what areas they’re interested in and what works for interested in and what works for them. Them. And so we just wanted to provide and so we just wanted to provide some flexibility so we can some flexibility so we can adjust because this is a new adjust because this is a new endeavor with uc davis, dignity, endeavor with uc davis, dignity, sutter, and kaiser permanente sutter, and kaiser permanente making significant investments. Making significant investments. In my experience interacting in my experience interacting with them, they want to make a with them, they want to make a difference and help. Difference and help. So we don’t know where that’s so we don’t know where that’s going to go. Going to go. We didn’t want to lose the we didn’t want to lose the opportunity to have that opportunity to have that flexibility. Flexibility. To your comment about we’re to your comment about we’re pulling it from somewhere else pulling it from somewhere else in folsom, nothing says these in folsom, nothing says these community benefit dollars are community benefit dollars are going to that health system, so going to that health system, so the asum — assumption. The asum — assumption. That’s my understanding. That’s my understanding. That they have to give back to that they have to give back to the community, regional the community, regional community. Community. Not even eveningal community not even eveningal community it could be national community. It could be national community. These are very large health these are very large health systems. Systems. Right. Right. They’re non-profit authorized by they’re non-profit authorized by the federal government to the federal government to operate. Operate. That’s part of their tax that’s part of their tax structure is my understanding. Structure is my understanding. Yeah. Yeah. Councilmember kozlowski, councilmember kozlowski, comments? Comments? If I could ask — it is just if I could ask — it is just around too some of the vice around too some of the vice mayor’s comments, and that was, mayor’s comments, and that was, is — I meant to ask this is — I meant to ask this earlier — but, community earlier — but, community benefit for them does not benefit for them does not necessarily mean that it has to necessarily mean that it has to go into a medical report. Go into a medical report. It could go into the parks it could go into the parks system. System. It could go, you know, into it could go, you know, into providing supplies for the providing supplies for the police department. Police department. It seems to me community benefit it seems to me community benefit for those don’t have a limit for those don’t have a limit ation, unless you’re aware ation, unless you’re aware of some, where those dollars of some, where those dollars could be used directly. Could be used directly. They do have limitations, they do have limitations, absolutely. Absolutely. Do you know what those might do you know what those might be. Be. They have to fit into what they have to fit into what they’ve defined as community they’ve defined as community benefit. Benefit. That’s what we’re really asking that’s what we’re really asking is time to evaluate whether this is time to evaluate whether this is a good use of funds or not. Is a good use of funds or not. So. So. Yeah, I mean, I think it’s an yeah, I mean, I think it’s an okay use of funds. Okay use of funds. I would like to know more about I would like to know more about that piece. That piece. Again, I’m very concerned about again, I’m very concerned about losing somebody as highly losing somebody as highly qualified as DR. Sloan who has qualified as DR. Sloan who has worked well with the department. Worked well with the department. That’s a huge concern for me that’s a huge concern for me because it’s hard to find people because it’s hard to find people with that level of experience with that level of experience and availability within the and availability within the medical system. Medical system. Okay. Okay. So we have a motion and second. So we have a motion and second. I think just to summarize, it I think just to summarize, it sounds like DR. Sloan doesn’t sounds like DR. Sloan doesn’t have concerns making it a have concerns making it a one-year contract. One-year contract. Accurate. Accurate. Perfect we have motion and perfect we have motion and second call roll. Second call roll. Councilmember aquino. Councilmember aquino. Yes. Yes. Kozlowski. Kozlowski. Yes. Yes. Leary. Leary. No. No. Rohrbough. Rohrbough. And raithel. And raithel. Yes. Yes. Passes 4-2.

First new business item 14 is first new business item 14 is resolution 11510 establishing resolution 11510 establishing inclusionary animal fee amounts inclusionary animal fee amounts for for-sale residential for for-sale residential development. Development. Mayor raithel, members of the mayor raithel, members of the council I’m the planning manager council I’m the planning manager in the community development in the community development department. Department. I’m just pulling up my I’m just pulling up my presentation. Presentation. So, tonight before you is the so, tonight before you is the item — the resolution dealing item — the resolution dealing with establishing the with establishing the inclusionary housing in lui fee inclusionary housing in lui fee for residential development for residential development throughout the city. Throughout the city. As you naymay recall on as you naymay recall on inclusionary housing ordinance inclusionary housing ordinance update h9 requires us to do a update h9 requires us to do a study of inclusionary housing study of inclusionary housing ordinance and fees associated ordinance and fees associated with that so we hired economic with that so we hired economic and planning systems to do that and planning systems to do that study. Study. Though looked at the fee levels though looked at the fee levels and funding gaps and overall and funding gaps and overall methodology. Methodology. They recommended that we they recommended that we transition to a per square foot transition to a per square foot basis, which again was discussed basis, which again was discussed along with the ordinance. Along with the ordinance. And that ordinance was adopted and that ordinance was adopted at today’s meeting. At today’s meeting. So the fees actually must be so the fees actually must be established by a separate established by a separate resolution which is why we’re resolution which is why we’re before you tonight. Before you tonight. So just to give you a bit of a so just to give you a bit of a timeline on all this, we started timeline on all this, we started with the adoption of the housing with the adoption of the housing element in 2021, as I mentioned element in 2021, as I mentioned we hired economic and planning we hired economic and planning systems, they prepared the systems, they prepared the study, we did workshop with the study, we did workshop with the planning commission, we also planning commission, we also released the public review draft released the public review draft , did stakeholder outreach , did stakeholder outreach during that period and of course during that period and of course the ordinance was adopted the ordinance was adopted tonight and will go into effect tonight and will go into effect in February — February 12th of in February — February 12th of this year. This year. So we looked at four different so we looked at four different residential prototypes and residential prototypes and looked at what the cost would be looked at what the cost would be to build that — what the — to build that — what the — what folks could afford based on what folks could afford based on their income level, what the their income level, what the cost is to actually build that cost is to actually build that utopian — utopian — unit. Unit. And that determined the afford and that determined the afford ability gap or amount that ability gap or amount that needs to be subsidized. Needs to be subsidized. Based on the recommended in lieu based on the recommended in lieu fee level, the single family low fee level, the single family low density and single family medium density and single family medium density are profitable, you can density are profitable, you can see a positive in development see a positive in development funding gap, which means they’re funding gap, which means they’re obviously making money. Obviously making money. Where it becomes little where it becomes little problematic is on the — on problematic is on the — on multi-family rental apartments multi-family rental apartments you see 40,000 dollar gap. You see 40,000 dollar gap. This is primarily looked at in this is primarily looked at in the plan area where we’ve got the plan area where we’ve got most our development activity. Most our development activity. And then right on the cusp of and then right on the cusp of feasibility is the multi-family feasibility is the multi-family attached, so, like, attached attached, so, like, attached town home, condominium product. Town home, condominium product. So forth. So forth. Which is about 1500 square feet. Which is about 1500 square feet. So in terms of our goals with so in terms of our goals with the in lieu fees and with the the in lieu fees and with the ordinance was really to reduce ordinance was really to reduce the administrative burden, not the administrative burden, not dramatically increase overall dramatically increase overall revenue. Revenue. The recommended fee before you the recommended fee before you is very similar to the fee that is very similar to the fee that we charge, which is based on one we charge, which is based on one percent of the overall sales percent of the overall sales price, looking back at price, looking back at historical data. Historical data. Fees can be used to encourage or fees can be used to encourage or discourage certain housing. Discourage certain housing. We have recommendation related we have recommendation related to that. To that. We did exempt the rental housing we did exempt the rental housing and we’re not recommending that and we’re not recommending that we start charging it. We start charging it. Because of the fact that those because of the fact that those projects in the folsom plan area projects in the folsom plan area where we are seeing much of our where we are seeing much of our development, those projects are development, those projects are not feasible. Not feasible. We are recommending that the we are recommending that the fee, like the rest of the city fee, like the rest of the city fees, be updated on an annual fees, be updated on an annual basis, with changes in the basis, with changes in the construction cost index. Construction cost index. That allows the fee to that allows the fee to maintain — to city current — maintain — to city current — it also ensures that we don’t it also ensures that we don’t fall behind, in terms of when we fall behind, in terms of when we provide gap finance, we have the provide gap finance, we have the funds to provide gap financing funds to provide gap financing for the construction of for the construction of affordable housing. Affordable housing. And then we are recommending, as and then we are recommending, as the study does, to continue to the study does, to continue to evaluate our in lieu fee level evaluate our in lieu fee level so that they don’t affect so that they don’t affect project feasibility and they project feasibility and they also achieve our policy also achieve our policy objectives. Objectives. So, before you tonight, we’ve so, before you tonight, we’ve got the fees for the single got the fees for the single family areas where we’re seeing family areas where we’re seeing predominantly larger single predominantly larger single family homes, we’re recommending family homes, we’re recommending 3 dollars per square foot. 3 dollars per square foot. That is in keeping kind of what that is in keeping kind of what we’ve historically done. We’ve historically done. In the multi-family areas where in the multi-family areas where we see units greater than 1500 we see units greater than 1500 square feet it’s 3 dollars per square feet it’s 3 dollars per square foot as well. Square foot as well. In in the multi family areas in in the multi family areas where we see smaller units we where we see smaller units we reduce to encourage that. Reduce to encourage that. To talk about why we structured to talk about why we structured it that way, what we’re seeing it that way, what we’re seeing in folsom plan area is on multi in folsom plan area is on multi density sites they can have wide density sites they can have wide variety of sites from town homes variety of sites from town homes to condos to duplex, half to condos to duplex, half plexes, to single family homes. Plexes, to single family homes. What we’re seeing from the what we’re seeing from the development community is large development community is large single family homes going into single family homes going into those locations and we know those locations and we know those are feasible because those are feasible because they’re 2,000 square feet or they’re 2,000 square feet or larger. Larger. What we’re saying is based on be what we’re saying is based on be the council feedback is how are the council feedback is how are we creating a product that is we creating a product that is kind of geared towards your kind of geared towards your first-time home buyer or towards first-time home buyer or towards somebody who is trying to move somebody who is trying to move up or who is doing the reverse, up or who is doing the reverse, trying to down size. Trying to down size. You know. You know. We’re not seeing a lot of that we’re not seeing a lot of that product. Product. In fact, since 2019, in the plan in fact, since 2019, in the plan area, we’ve had only 43 units area, we’ve had only 43 units less than 1500 square root — less than 1500 square root — feet. Feet. So we would like to see and evan so we would like to see and evan — encourage, since they’re on — encourage, since they’re on the cusp of fees interlower the the cusp of fees interlower the fee in that multi family medium fee in that multi family medium density rather than fit the density rather than fit the single family high density single family high density product into those areas. Product into those areas. It doesn’t provide us with that it doesn’t provide us with that range of housing types. Range of housing types. So, that’s why we had that so, that’s why we had that reduced fee. Reduced fee. So, in terms of implementation, so, in terms of implementation, so, depending on what you decide so, depending on what you decide to do tonight, if the fees are to do tonight, if the fees are approved tonight then they would approved tonight then they would go into affect on February 12th go into affect on February 12th when the ordinance goes into when the ordinance goes into effect. Effect. The in lieu fees are deposits the in lieu fees are deposits into the housing fund and 50% of into the housing fund and 50% of the housing fund must be used the housing fund must be used for construction of housing for construction of housing affordable to lower income affordable to lower income households and would be adjusted households and would be adjusted annually based on changes in the annually based on changes in the construction cost index. Construction cost index. If it goes up, the fee goes up. If it goes up, the fee goes up. If it go down, the fee goes if it go down, the fee goes down. Down. Existing projects that already existing projects that already have inclusion airy housing have inclusion airy housing agreement that has been approved agreement that has been approved have the option to continue to have the option to continue to pay one percent of the lowest pay one percent of the lowest priced home in the subdivision. Priced home in the subdivision. Or they can request to switch to or they can request to switch to the new fee with the city’s the new fee with the city’s approval. Approval. They have the option. They have the option. Anyone new would be bound by the anyone new would be bound by the new fee. New fee. So, the recommendation before so, the recommendation before you tonight is to approve the you tonight is to approve the resolution, establishing the new resolution, establishing the new in lieu fees for for-sale in lieu fees for for-sale residential development. Residential development. That concludes my presentation. That concludes my presentation. I’d be happy to answer any I’d be happy to answer any questions you might have. Questions you might have. Councilmember kozlowski, any councilmember kozlowski, any questions? Questions? No questions, thank you. No questions, thank you. Vice mayor? Vice mayor? Councilmember leary? Councilmember leary? Yeah, I’m wondering, and I yeah, I’m wondering, and I know we’ve gone over this list know we’ve gone over this list before, but can we kind of go before, but can we kind of go over what those inclusionary over what those inclusionary fees can be used for aside for fees can be used for aside for building more rental spaces. Building more rental spaces. I’m sorry, I copied this into my I’m sorry, I copied this into my notes and not finding it right notes and not finding it right now, so they can be used for now, so they can be used for people to help with loan people to help with loan assistance and other items for assistance and other items for people purchasing homes that people purchasing homes that fall within the local — fall within the local — low-income categories. Low-income categories. They can be used for wide they can be used for wide variety of uses. Variety of uses. Stephanie henny, our housing stephanie henny, our housing manager can speak to that. Manager can speak to that. You’ve done a thorough job you’ve done a thorough job resending this before, but I resending this before, but I just can’t remember the list. Just can’t remember the list. Yeah, so, as you know, we can yeah, so, as you know, we can use those fees to help with the use those fees to help with the affordability of low-income affordability of low-income apartments to help finance the apartments to help finance the gap that they have in developing gap that they have in developing those. Those. We can also utilize it to we can also utilize it to purchase land that we could purchase land that we could designate for low-income designate for low-income housing. Housing. We can use it to help with we can use it to help with projects like habitat for projects like habitat for humanity. Humanity. Where we help with them reducing where we help with them reducing their land cost. Their land cost. And also provided that money and also provided that money back to the general fund so we back to the general fund so we can help develop that project. Can help develop that project. So those are the primary ways we so those are the primary ways we would utilize those funds. Would utilize those funds. We also utilize those funds for we also utilize those funds for staff, for our consultants that staff, for our consultants that review those housing agreements, review those housing agreements, and for other housing-related and for other housing-related projects for lower income folks. Projects for lower income folks. But the goal of these funds is but the goal of these funds is to utilize them to get to utilize them to get affordable housing constructed affordable housing constructed and available to our citizens. And available to our citizens. Student: my main interest is student: my main interest is that’s where humanity for that’s where humanity for habitat projects come in is that habitat projects come in is that people can purchase a home with people can purchase a home with the assistance of this program the assistance of this program through programs like habitat through programs like habitat through humanity, it’s critical through humanity, it’s critical area we need to fill in. Area we need to fill in. Thank you. Thank you. We agree. We agree. Councilmember aquino? Councilmember aquino? So desmond, if one of our so desmond, if one of our goals — I think it is — is to goals — I think it is — is to see more of that missing middle see more of that missing middle for-sale not for rent — I for-sale not for rent — I understand reducing the in lieu understand reducing the in lieu from 3 dollars to 2.50 but where from 3 dollars to 2.50 but where did 1500 square feet come in, is did 1500 square feet come in, is that arbitrary, why put a limit that arbitrary, why put a limit on it at all? On it at all? So it was based on the so it was based on the prototypes that were presented. Prototypes that were presented. So we had 2600 square foot so we had 2600 square foot single family home prototype. Single family home prototype. A 2,000 square foot prototype. A 2,000 square foot prototype. That was again a single family that was again a single family home. Home. Then we had 1500 square foot then we had 1500 square foot town home project that was town home project that was attach. Attach. And then a 1,000 square foot and then a 1,000 square foot rental apartment project. Rental apartment project. And we looked at the 1500 square and we looked at the 1500 square foot and that was the one that foot and that was the one that was kind of right on on the was kind of right on on the cusp. Cusp. And I think — there’s not — and I think — there’s not — you know — a magic science to you know — a magic science to that. That. It can — could be 1300. It can — could be 1300. It could be 1600. It could be 1600. It could be higher or lower. It could be higher or lower. I think generally speaking, you I think generally speaking, you know, the smaller the home, know, the smaller the home, generally the more affordable it generally the more affordable it is. Is. So, we use that 1500 square feet so, we use that 1500 square feet from the study and that’s from the study and that’s what — and then — we looked at what — and then — we looked at some other jurisdictions, for some other jurisdictions, for example in rancho cordova, I’m example in rancho cordova, I’m not trying to replicate what was not trying to replicate what was done there but there were what I done there but there were what I consider starter homes that consider starter homes that range from 1300 to 16 50 in range from 1300 to 16 50 in terms of square footage. Terms of square footage. We full time that 1500 kind of we full time that 1500 kind of hit the mark. Hit the mark. Yeah. Yeah. But it could certainly be but it could certainly be adjusted up or down depending on adjusted up or down depending on the council desire. The council desire. Do you have to limit the do you have to limit the square footage at all, couldn’t square footage at all, couldn’t you just say multi-family, low you just say multi-family, low density, for sale. Density, for sale. Does it have to have a square does it have to have a square footage limitation on it? Footage limitation on it? Not necessarily. Not necessarily. But what we’re seeing in the but what we’re seeing in the folsom plan area is that, you folsom plan area is that, you know, really some of these know, really some of these products that we’ve generally products that we’ve generally liked, because they are larger, liked, because they are larger, I mean sendero project, good I mean sendero project, good example, try point has done example, try point has done sendero project, there’s three sendero project, there’s three units associated with that, all units associated with that, all those units are above 1500 those units are above 1500 square feet yet they’re selling square feet yet they’re selling in a range from 522– 525 to in a range from 522– 525 to 625, so our thought was, if you 625, so our thought was, if you set the square footage a little set the square footage a little lower maybe the price point will lower maybe the price point will come in a little lower because come in a little lower because you’re dealing with less square you’re dealing with less square footage. Footage. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Thank you. Thank you. So I think I’ve dug into some so I think I’ve dug into some of the data, I appreciate of the data, I appreciate desmond’s going back-and-forth desmond’s going back-and-forth with me over the last few days. With me over the last few days. You can count the number of you can count the number of missing middle projects on two missing middle projects on two hands in the city of folsom. Hands in the city of folsom. So I kind of looked at the so I kind of looked at the square footage of different square footage of different projects that are around the projects that are around the 1500 square foot projects, 1500 square foot projects, nothing in sendero would nothing in sendero would qualify. Qualify. The park shore project. The park shore project. The farm house project would not the farm house project would not qualify. Qualify. The projects that do qualify the projects that do qualify would be toll brothers duplexes would be toll brothers duplexes that are coming forward. That are coming forward. The kind of blue circle up just the kind of blue circle up just north of railis, and some of north of railis, and some of those project — that one those project — that one project east of railis — new project east of railis — new railis. Railis. That’s just to the east of that’s just to the east of there. There. Some of those — the internal some of those — the internal units are below 1500 square units are below 1500 square feet. Feet. External units are 1600 plus. External units are 1600 plus. Just to give you a flavor. Just to give you a flavor. The projects on broadstone there the projects on broadstone there at oak avenue, I’m not sure if at oak avenue, I’m not sure if that is technically broadstone, that is technically broadstone, those are under 1500 square foot those are under 1500 square foot so it’s like when you have I so it’s like when you have I core projects, you do get down core projects, you do get down into low 1500 square foot. Into low 1500 square foot. Personally, when I look at it, I personally, when I look at it, I like the sendero project. Like the sendero project. I think it is hitting the upper I think it is hitting the upper of the moderately priced range of the moderately priced range where you could afford that and where you could afford that and still call it moderate. Still call it moderate. I are probably closer to 120% I are probably closer to 120% than the 0% — 80%. Than the 0% — 80%. But to me this is folsom but to me this is folsom affordable. Affordable. Folsom attainable. Folsom attainable. To me, I think we should do to me, I think we should do everything we can to put our everything we can to put our money where our mouth is and say money where our mouth is and say these are the type of projects these are the type of projects we want to encourage. We want to encourage. But I think it’s a great but I think it’s a great discussion that we should have. Discussion that we should have. I personally like 1900 square I personally like 1900 square root. Root. To — feet. To — feet. To look at that break point. To look at that break point. And the other question I think and the other question I think we need to talk about is how we need to talk about is how much do we want to invent — much do we want to invent — incentivize this. Incentivize this. We– I don’t think we’ll move we– I don’t think we’ll move the needle with 750-dollar the needle with 750-dollar discount. Discount. Do we move it with 4500 do we move it with 4500 discount? Discount? Maybe. Maybe. More likely than 750 dollar more likely than 750 dollar discount. Discount. My personal preference is we my personal preference is we stop collecting in lieu fees on stop collecting in lieu fees on this missing middle product. This missing middle product. I asked desmond to run numbers I asked desmond to run numbers what the impact will be the what the impact will be the housing trust fund because I housing trust fund because I believe the housing trust fund believe the housing trust fund is very important source of is very important source of funds for us to do these funds for us to do these projects. Projects. The answer is 250, 000 a year. The answer is 250, 000 a year. If development were to continue if development were to continue right now we’d bring in about 5 right now we’d bring in about 5 million a year into our housing million a year into our housing trust fund. Trust fund. So if we’re to limit this at so if we’re to limit this at 1900 square feet and saw a 1900 square feet and saw a similar development pattern that similar development pattern that we’ve seen in the last six years we’ve seen in the last six years that impact would be about five that impact would be about five percent reduction in what we percent reduction in what we take in the affordable housing take in the affordable housing trust fund. Trust fund. Getting there in a second. Getting there in a second. I just have gone back-and-forth I just have gone back-and-forth and wanted to show my thoughts and wanted to show my thoughts and dive into the details. And dive into the details. Can I ask a question on that. Can I ask a question on that. Are you done. Are you done. Yeah. Yeah. So you said stop — on the so you said stop — on the missing middle — are you saying missing middle — are you saying all of the ones that were all of the ones that were charging 2.50? Charging 2.50? Correct. Correct. So what’s that include? So what’s that include? What — maybe I ask you or him. What — maybe I ask you or him. So the staff’s recommendation so the staff’s recommendation is 1500 square foot or less. Is 1500 square foot or less. That includes multi-family, that includes multi-family, duplexes, condos, everything duplexes, condos, everything under 1500 — for sale — not under 1500 — for sale — not for apartments. For apartments. Right? Right? Yes. Yes. Generally. Generally. We are recommending — you we are recommending — you know — if you’re going to zero know — if you’re going to zero out the fees to encourage this out the fees to encourage this type of product, our type of product, our recommendation would be, you recommendation would be, you know, somewhere around 1500. Know, somewhere around 1500. Could be 1600. Could be 1600. 1400. 1400. You know. You know. Somewhere around there. Somewhere around there. Because that’s the — it’s that because that’s the — it’s that smaller product that we’re smaller product that we’re trying to encourage. Trying to encourage. Because that fits into it’s– because that fits into it’s– the starter home category and the starter home category and that’s the one that is barely that’s the one that is barely feasible. Feasible. When you get to 2,000, that’s, when you get to 2,000, that’s, you know, the — the analysis by you know, the — the analysis by eps shows that they’re making — eps shows that they’re making — that’s very feasible. That’s very feasible. So our thinking was. So our thinking was. 00 — 1900 is close to 2,000 00 — 1900 is close to 2,000 that’s a feasible product that’s a feasible product already. Already. If we go down to around that if we go down to around that 1500 square foot, that’s what 1500 square foot, that’s what they’re saying barely breaks they’re saying barely breaks even. Even. So that’s why we’re leaning so that’s why we’re leaning towards 1500. Towards 1500. So, mayor, I think you so, mayor, I think you articulated this about five articulated this about five million go it’s to the housing million go it’s to the housing trust fund and this affects — trust fund and this affects — if we took away the fees for if we took away the fees for everything under 1500 will everything under 1500 will affect the housing trust fund affect the housing trust fund not the general fund for those not the general fund for those watching and it innocent watching and it innocent incentivizes hopefully the incentivizes hopefully the developers to do build closer to developers to do build closer to 1500. 1500. Even if it’s not enough to even if it’s not enough to incentivize that product it incentivize that product it sends the message to the city sends the message to the city our policy is to encourage our policy is to encourage these missing middle units. These missing middle units. While I can’t seeing it move while I can’t seeing it move the needle much. The needle much. Student: what — do we have any public comment? Comment? No you do not. No you do not. I have a question — or a I have a question — or a couple. Couple. I do the math on this, and we’re I do the math on this, and we’re looking at somebody building, looking at somebody building, let’s say, a hundred — 1500 let’s say, a hundred — 1500 square foot units — you know, square foot units — you know, when you are looking at these when you are looking at these complexes they can be from 50 to complexes they can be from 50 to 150 units but if you take 100 150 units but if you take 100 units and reduce the fees it is units and reduce the fees it is only saving the developer on only saving the developer on that site 375,000 dollars for a that site 375,000 dollars for a hundred — 1500 square foot hundred — 1500 square foot units. Units. Which doesn’t seem like a huge which doesn’t seem like a huge incentive to me. Incentive to me. Can you go back to your slide can you go back to your slide where you are the analysis on where you are the analysis on the gap. The gap. Sure. Sure. I think that really tells the I think that really tells the story. Story. What we’re talking about is this what we’re talking about is this delta where the, you know, the delta where the, you know, the gap to making these things more gap to making these things more feasible is ninish thousand feasible is ninish thousand dollars, in in the third dollars, in in the third categories there. Categories there. So relieving them of three or so relieving them of three or four thousand dollars meaningful four thousand dollars meaningful progress towards that. Progress towards that. And it doesn’t necessarily harm and it doesn’t necessarily harm the city’s trust fund for these the city’s trust fund for these kinds of developments. Kinds of developments. It gives more direct subsidy to it gives more direct subsidy to specifically encourage the thing specifically encourage the thing we’re after. We’re after. My other point has been, I my other point has been, I brought this up in the past is brought this up in the past is there are other disincentives, there are other disincentives, including the long-standing including the long-standing state law that people that build state law that people that build these types of attached units — these types of attached units — not talking about detached unity not talking about detached unity those for ten years. Those for ten years. And that’s a huge cost. And that’s a huge cost. Whenever I’ve spoken to whenever I’ve spoken to developers about what is your developers about what is your greatestis incentive for greatestis incentive for building, you know, building, you know, condo-type — town home-type condo-type — town home-type units, 100% of time they all units, 100% of time they all refer to that state law. Refer to that state law. So, I understand the point that so, I understand the point that this May be some kind of this May be some kind of incentive. Incentive. I don’t think it’s huge. I don’t think it’s huge. And I don’t know how much that’s and I don’t know how much that’s going to move the needle until going to move the needle until those state laws get changed, those state laws get changed, and I understand there’s a law and I understand there’s a law going through the process at the going through the process at the state level at this point and I state level at this point and I don’t know what the chances of don’t know what the chances of that are passing and fixing the that are passing and fixing the problem but I’m not seeing — I problem but I’m not seeing — I hate to lose the money out of hate to lose the money out of the housing fund if we relieve the housing fund if we relieve them of collecting that. Them of collecting that. If I May. If I May. Yeah. Yeah. If there’s no incentive after if there’s no incentive after we take this step for developers we take this step for developers to build that kind of product, to build that kind of product, they’ll build something bigger they’ll build something bigger and we’ll have all the money and we’ll have all the money that we can collect. That we can collect. We won’t have fulfill that we won’t have fulfill that need. Need. We’ll be in the same we’ll be in the same situation as currently where we situation as currently where we need to use our trust fund to need to use our trust fund to more aggressively incentivize more aggressively incentivize specific projects rather than specific projects rather than generally opening the door to generally opening the door to these type of projects. These type of projects. So I don’t think we’ll be harmed so I don’t think we’ll be harmed either way. Either way. We’ll either be successful and we’ll either be successful and get the product we want. Get the product we want. Or we’ll be unsuccessful, have or we’ll be unsuccessful, have the money and still have to the money and still have to chase the product we want. Chase the product we want. Maybe the greatest success is maybe the greatest success is building more project like the building more project like the habitat for humanity and using habitat for humanity and using the money out of the trust fund the money out of the trust fund to purchase the land. To purchase the land. I will clarify and make a I will clarify and make a motion to move resolution 11510. Motion to move resolution 11510. I will split the difference I will split the difference between the staff — I was going between the staff — I was going to split the difference — I to split the difference — I said 1900 — I’m going to go said 1900 — I’m going to go lower. Lower. I said 100 — staff like 15. I said 100 — staff like 15. I’m go going with modification I’m go going with modification of 1700 reduction of fee amount of 1700 reduction of fee amount of zero dollars for under 1700 of zero dollars for under 1700 square feet. Square feet. I will second. I will second. Open for discussion. Open for discussion. I don’t — yeah — I’m going I don’t — yeah — I’m going to reject that when it comes to reject that when it comes time to vote, simply I don’t see time to vote, simply I don’t see any basis for making that any basis for making that change. Change. I think the staff recommendation I think the staff recommendation is solid and it will either work is solid and it will either work or not work and we can come back or not work and we can come back and tinker with it later rather and tinker with it later rather than assuming it won’t work and than assuming it won’t work and need to be tinkered with now. Need to be tinkered with now. So you’re opposed to the so you’re opposed to the square footage or dollar value. Square footage or dollar value. I don’t see a need for I don’t see a need for either. Either. I will let my motion stand I will let my motion stand then. Then. I’m okay with reducing the I’m okay with reducing the fee. Fee. I think that would be, again, I think that would be, again, what I said earlier, policy with what I said earlier, policy with priorities. Priorities. But I think the sweet spot is but I think the sweet spot is 1500 square feet for me. 1500 square feet for me. 1900 is a pretty big house. 1900 is a pretty big house. I don’t want to put all the fee I don’t want to put all the fee burden, I guess now 1750 you’re burden, I guess now 1750 you’re suggesting, I don’t want — suggesting, I don’t want — that’s the way I feel right now. That’s the way I feel right now. You rather encourage smaller you rather encourage smaller for sale. For sale. I rather if we make a change I rather if we make a change on this proposed item that we on this proposed item that we start putting this — starting start putting this — starting with the 1500 and under. With the 1500 and under. Where are you on the size, where are you on the size, councilmember leary? Councilmember leary? I will agree with 1500. I will agree with 1500. Do you want to make do you want to make substitution motion. Substitution motion. I can amend my motion to 1500 I can amend my motion to 1500 square feet. Square feet. I’ll second. I’ll second. All right we have a motion all right we have a motion and second call roll. And second call roll. Councilmember aquino. Councilmember aquino. Yes. Yes. Kozlowski — kozlowski — yes. Yes. Leary. Leary.

And — before the community and — before the community build begins in order for this build begins in order for this project to be successful — we project to be successful — we are recommending moving forward are recommending moving forward with two contractors to complete with two contractors to complete this work, kya and granite this work, kya and granite construction INC. Construction INC. I will walk through the scope of I will walk through the scope of work for the site work. Work for the site work. I wanted to orient everybody I wanted to orient everybody with the site plan first. With the site plan first. We have the project — or the we have the project — or the play structure in the center. Play structure in the center. We have pruitt drive at the we have pruitt drive at the bottom. Bottom. There’s the residents at the top there’s the residents at the top of the plan and also to the of the plan and also to the right. Right. And the class one bike trail to and the class one bike trail to the left of the site. The left of the site. So first we’ll be walking so first we’ll be walking through the scope of work for through the scope of work for kya. Kya. There are going to be starting there are going to be starting with clearing and grading of the with clearing and grading of the play areas in preparation for play areas in preparation for the community build as well as the community build as well as demolition of a portion of the demolition of a portion of the existing sidewalk along pruitt existing sidewalk along pruitt drive. Drive. This portion of the sidewalk this portion of the sidewalk currently is sloping down into currently is sloping down into the street and and is not the street and and is not ada-accessible at this time so ada-accessible at this time so the intent with the demolition the intent with the demolition for this site work would be to for this site work would be to bring that portion of the bring that portion of the sidewalk up to code. Sidewalk up to code. Another step after the grading another step after the grading would be to do some sub-grade would be to do some sub-grade work for the concrete payment. Work for the concrete payment. Staff is requesting staff is requesting appropriation of measure a funds appropriation of measure a funds for this portion of work to for this portion of work to offset impact to the agenda fund offset impact to the agenda fund since this portion of work since this portion of work directly supports park directly supports park accessibility safety and accessibility safety and ada-compliant, we believe it is ada-compliant, we believe it is appropriate use of measure appropriate use of measure a funds. A funds. Next, kya would also be stubbing next, kya would also be stubbing out utilities, specifically out utilities, specifically electrical and potable water for electrical and potable water for future restroom, since the exact future restroom, since the exact location of the restroom has not location of the restroom has not yet been determined we’d be yet been determined we’d be extending utilities to the extending utilities to the center of the site to allow for center of the site to allow for flex italian in in — flex italian in in — flexibility of placement.

Kya is a qualified cmass vendor kya is a qualified cmass vendor in utilizing public agencies in utilizing public agencies like the city to leverage like the city to leverage collective buying power which collective buying power which results in cost-saving and results in cost-saving and efficiency and streamline efficiency and streamline procurement process which we procurement process which we believe is crucial for a believe is crucial for a timeline for castle park. Timeline for castle park. Next I wanted to walk through next I wanted to walk through the scope of work that would be the scope of work that would be completedly granite completedly granite construction. Construction. They’ve agreed to do all of the they’ve agreed to do all of the concrete work for the site. Concrete work for the site. They have also agreed to donate they have also agreed to donate half the amount of the concrete half the amount of the concrete pavement and perform the work at pavement and perform the work at cost to the city.

Project successful. Now that you know the scope of now that you know the scope of work we’re talking about with work we’re talking about with the site walk, I want to walk the site walk, I want to walk through our projected cost. Through our projected cost. For the design sub total for the design sub total currently, as we are projecting currently, as we are projecting it’s 15 ,835 dollars, our it’s 15 ,835 dollars, our materials, sub total for the materials, sub total for the playground materials itself is 3 playground materials itself is 3 79,000. 79,000. 37 , and construction sub total, 462 — project total,. — project total,. 1 million, 1,229. 1 million, 1,229. You can see highlighted in you can see highlighted in green. Green. Two contracts we’re presented on two contracts we’re presented on today. Today. The kya and granite the kya and granite construction. Construction. And then ten percent — or and then ten percent — or construction contingency along construction contingency along with that. With that. And then of those costs. And then of those costs. This is how we’re breaking them this is how we’re breaking them down by funding source. Down by funding source. So we have 800,000 dollar budget so we have 800,000 dollar budget of the parks and recreation of the parks and recreation equipment and capital fund. Equipment and capital fund. So we’re staying below that so we’re staying below that coming in at 716,063 dollars and coming in at 716,063 dollars and if these resolutions move if these resolutions move forward we’ll be proposed forward we’ll be proposed 135,201 dollars from measure 135,201 dollars from measure a funds. A funds. And of the rest of the total, and of the rest of the total, which is 149,965 dollars, that which is 149,965 dollars, that would be coming in from the would be coming in from the efforts from folsom kids play efforts from folsom kids play for generations which is our for generations which is our non-profit partner as well as non-profit partner as well as other generous donations.

We just wanted to highlight some we just wanted to highlight some of the provisions or conditions of the provisions or conditions of approval and give the council of approval and give the council and the community the and the community the opportunity to provide opportunity to provide additional feedback and additional feedback and discussion. Discussion. Any questions for the city any questions for the city manager this evening? Manager this evening? Commissioner leary? Commissioner leary? I just wanted to thank you I just wanted to thank you for putting together all of that for putting together all of that information, because that information, because that answered a lot of the questions answered a lot of the questions that I asked at the January that I asked at the January meeting about the reporting and meeting about the reporting and the kinds of evaluative things the kinds of evaluative things we want in place should this we want in place should this pass. Pass. And I’ll second vice chair and I’ll second vice chair rohrbough’s question that is rohrbough’s question that is whether this will be presented whether this will be presented at a council meeting. At a council meeting. I think it’s beneficial if I think it’s beneficial if things are presented at council things are presented at council meetings, because they’re meetings, because they’re recorded, and if anybody wants recorded, and if anybody wants to go back and take a look at to go back and take a look at that, it’ll be available online that, it’ll be available online versus having the meeting, the versus having the meeting, the materials just presented at a materials just presented at a meeting of the tedcorp. Meeting of the tedcorp. I don’t know what their capacity I don’t know what their capacity is for recording and reproducing is for recording and reproducing or posting recordings, but I or posting recordings, but I think that’s a good step in think that’s a good step in eliminating any concerns about eliminating any concerns about transparency on this. Transparency on this. Great. Great. And if I could add, we do have and if I could add, we do have representatives from tedcorp representatives from tedcorp here to respond to these here to respond to these questions as well. Questions as well. Thank you. Thank you. Other questions? Other questions? Just to expand on my question just to expand on my question earlier, I think if — I don’t earlier, I think if — I don’t mind if it’s presented by mind if it’s presented by tedcorp, at a tedcorp tedcorp, at a tedcorp meeting, but I think that meeting, but I think that council at a meeting, we should council at a meeting, we should publicly address that it will be publicly address that it will be held at this time when there is held at this time when there is a discussion on where the funds a discussion on where the funds are being invested. Are being invested. And then some reports out yearly and then some reports out yearly I think would be great, but that I think would be great, but that allows for people to publicly go allows for people to publicly go to if they have a project or to if they have a project or something or they want to kind something or they want to kind of know how everything is kind of know how everything is kind of getting made. Of getting made. They can go to that tedcorp they can go to that tedcorp meeting and that increases meeting and that increases public ability to do so, so I public ability to do so, so I don’t think many people know don’t think many people know that that’s a public meeting. That that’s a public meeting. I don’t think many people will I don’t think many people will come, joe! Come, joe! But I think the more vocal we but I think the more vocal we can be about when the meeting is can be about when the meeting is being held, when this discussion being held, when this discussion is happening, the better off, is happening, the better off, the more transparency and trust the more transparency and trust that we can build. That we can build. And if it’s okay for me to and if it’s okay for me to comment, I mean, that’s kind of comment, I mean, that’s kind of the reason for this meeting is the reason for this meeting is to get this type of feedback and to get this type of feedback and what we would intend to is take what we would intend to is take this feedback and at the 27th this feedback and at the 27th meeting have a revised version meeting have a revised version that would add a little more that would add a little more detail to that. Detail to that. All right, any public comment all right, any public comment this evening? This evening? Yes, one request to speak yes, one request to speak under this item from eileen under this item from eileen reynolds. Reynolds. Good evening. Good evening. I’m eileen reynolds, the I’m eileen reynolds, the immediate past chair of immediate past chair of tedcorp. Tedcorp. I didn’t expect to be the only I didn’t expect to be the only speaker, but I just want to speaker, but I just want to reiterate that we spoke with you reiterate that we spoke with you last time that this was last time that this was presented. Presented. I appreciate you hearing us at I appreciate you hearing us at that point. That point. We think this is an awesome way we think this is an awesome way to bring in some pretty cool to bring in some pretty cool projects to give folsom some projects to give folsom some more leverage to get some neat more leverage to get some neat infrastructure-type project type infrastructure-type project type things here where we can bring things here where we can bring more tourists, more heads in more tourists, more heads in beds for the hotels. Beds for the hotels. So I guess the only question I so I guess the only question I have about the conditions of have about the conditions of approval that I saw very approval that I saw very briefly, I’ve not seen these briefly, I’ve not seen these before, would it preclude us at before, would it preclude us at all from doing the consultant all from doing the consultant studies that we believe need to studies that we believe need to be done in order to — because be done in order to — because it looked like there were it looked like there were certain things that consultants certain things that consultants couldn’t be funded, but I just couldn’t be funded, but I just want to make sure — because we want to make sure — because we do believe the next phase of do believe the next phase of this is to go through some this is to go through some consultant studies about what consultant studies about what feasibly could be funded. Feasibly could be funded. Sure. Sure. I mean, that’s a great point. I mean, that’s a great point. So we would definitely go so we would definitely go through this and we’d gladly through this and we’d gladly work with tedcorp to make sure work with tedcorp to make sure we have those abilities. We have those abilities. As we’ve had discussions about as we’ve had discussions about this and one of the reasons why this and one of the reasons why from a city perspective, city from a city perspective, city staff perspective, we think this staff perspective, we think this is a pretty good idea is the is a pretty good idea is the ability to invest in those ability to invest in those studies that will set up the studies that will set up the foundation for future foundation for future improvements to public improvements to public facilities throughout the facilities throughout the community. Community. And so the intent of putting and so the intent of putting these together was not to these together was not to preclude us from that. Preclude us from that. Very good. Very good. We do have the expert on t-bids we do have the expert on t-bids here if you need him, john here if you need him, john lambeth and joe galiardi is here lambeth and joe galiardi is here who staffs tedcorp, but thank who staffs tedcorp, but thank you for your consideration and I you for your consideration and I appreciate that you’re appreciate that you’re considering this at all to move considering this at all to move forward and we look forward to forward and we look forward to seeing you again on the 27th.

Some of our public. And I just wanted to say thank and I just wanted to say thank you for taking the time to you for taking the time to address them. Address them. They were really good questions, they were really good questions, good concerns brought up, and we good concerns brought up, and we addressed all of mine and got me addressed all of mine and got me over the hurdle and so did all over the hurdle and so did all of you that put it together. Of you that put it together. I didn’t turn in a blue card, I didn’t turn in a blue card, but can I speak? But can I speak? We know who you are. We know who you are. Joe galiardi here with joe galiardi here with tedcorp this evening. Tedcorp this evening. I wanted to talk a little bit I wanted to talk a little bit about how we see the prowse pros about how we see the prowse pros unfolding. Unfolding. First of all, not only do you first of all, not only do you need to approve these need to approve these expenditures, but our hotel expenditures, but our hotel partners need to. Partners need to. That’s part of the process of a that’s part of the process of a business improvement district is business improvement district is that the hoteliers have a say in that the hoteliers have a say in what gets funded as do you. What gets funded as do you. So that’s really critical that so that’s really critical that we do that. We do that. We have in the audience today we have in the audience today some members of the folsom some members of the folsom athletic association who we’d athletic association who we’d reached out to about them reached out to about them bringing together the various bringing together the various sports teams as to what the sports teams as to what the needs are. Needs are. And, you know, as bryan alluded and, you know, as bryan alluded to, our goal here is really as to, our goal here is really as an economic driver to drive an economic driver to drive heads in beds that increases the heads in beds that increases the tot that you receive and the tot that you receive and the spends to our local businesses. Spends to our local businesses. So as we see the process so as we see the process unfolding, this is kind of how unfolding, this is kind of how we see it happening. We see it happening. If it’s approved, we then have if it’s approved, we then have to enter in and figure out some to enter in and figure out some priorities and figure out what priorities and figure out what those are. Those are. And what would be the most and what would be the most effective use of money to drive effective use of money to drive tourism and become more of a tourism and become more of a destination. Destination. Once those priorities are set, once those priorities are set, we have to do some feasibility we have to do some feasibility studies on ratifying what those studies on ratifying what those are and what the economic are and what the economic impacts of those would be. Impacts of those would be. Once we do that, if we figure once we do that, if we figure that there’s going to be some that there’s going to be some kind of a capital cost kind of a capital cost associated with it, there’s a associated with it, there’s a pretty stringent process you pretty stringent process you have to go through to get have to go through to get construction costs, design construction costs, design permit, and then if we decide permit, and then if we decide collectively all of us that we collectively all of us that we want a bond in order to have the want a bond in order to have the capital to do that, that’s a capital to do that, that’s a whole other process. Whole other process. So this is not going to be done so this is not going to be done in a vacuum. In a vacuum. This is just the first step, and this is just the first step, and I want to make sure we all I want to make sure we all understand that the hotels are a understand that the hotels are a critical part of this, because critical part of this, because that’s who really is our that’s who really is our stakeholders in addition to you. Stakeholders in addition to you. If you have any questions about if you have any questions about process and the assurances that process and the assurances that you have and so forth, john you have and so forth, john lambeth who wrote the lambeth who wrote the legislation that created this in legislation that created this in the very beginning is here to the very beginning is here to answer any questions. Answer any questions. Or there’s people in the or there’s people in the audience that have come to help audience that have come to help support this, because somebody support this, because somebody like snooks, jim snook, can tell like snooks, jim snook, can tell you when there’s something going you when there’s something going on in one of our hotels, the on in one of our hotels, the businesses benefit. Businesses benefit. And that’s the multiplier effect and that’s the multiplier effect of tourism is not only is it of tourism is not only is it that someone is staying in the that someone is staying in the hotel and paying a bed tax but hotel and paying a bed tax but they’re also supporting our they’re also supporting our local businesses. Local businesses. So I’d be happy to answer any so I’d be happy to answer any questions. Questions. We’re excited and anxious to see we’re excited and anxious to see this move forward so that we can this move forward so that we can do more for the community. Do more for the community.

Having it. So I saw this and I thought I’m so I saw this and I thought I’m looking at that slide thinking looking at that slide thinking folsom is a little behind and folsom is a little behind and the measure g didn’t pass. The measure g didn’t pass. We need other ways to attract we need other ways to attract people down here and if we can people down here and if we can get people from out of town to get people from out of town to stay, it’s a good thing.

I’m expecting some really tough I’m expecting some really tough questions from MR. Lambeth here questions from MR. Lambeth here since he’s been waiting. Since he’s been waiting. First of all, I don’t know first of all, I don’t know all the people here in the all the people here in the bright yellow, but I didn’t do bright yellow, but I didn’t do it! It!

I’m on the parks and rec I’m on the parks and rec commission, but I’m here as commission, but I’m here as resident but also for youth resident but also for youth sports. Sports. We’ve been having some great we’ve been having some great conversations in regards to this conversations in regards to this project starting and I think project starting and I think everybody is pretty much aware everybody is pretty much aware that u sports brings in a lot of that u sports brings in a lot of money to this community and if money to this community and if you build it, they will come. You build it, they will come. If we get more fields for if we get more fields for soccer, they will come. Soccer, they will come. If we get more basketball if we get more basketball courts, we’ll get tournaments courts, we’ll get tournaments for that and for volleyball. For that and for volleyball. And it makes this community that and it makes this community that much better. Much better. We are known for having we are known for having tournaments here and people love tournaments here and people love coming here, we just can’t coming here, we just can’t handle enough of it. Handle enough of it. So I look at that as an so I look at that as an opportunity for folsom to step opportunity for folsom to step up and get back into the game. Up and get back into the game. We’re kind of getting run around we’re kind of getting run around in circles by a few of our in circles by a few of our neighbors, which is a little neighbors, which is a little frustrating, and I think we need frustrating, and I think we need to step — this is an to step — this is an opportunity to build that and opportunity to build that and get back up where I think we get back up where I think we should be. Should be. In addition to that, some of the in addition to that, some of the stuff we’ve been talking about stuff we’ve been talking about is reusing or making some is reusing or making some changes to existing buildings changes to existing buildings around our town. Around our town. And part of it at the older end and part of it at the older end of folsom down by where the park of folsom down by where the park is and if we can work some ways is and if we can work some ways to maybe restructure some of the to maybe restructure some of the buildings down there, we can buildings down there, we can build a sports center area down build a sports center area down there that will help with the there that will help with the redevelopment down there. Redevelopment down there. So there’s a lot of areas to so there’s a lot of areas to look at and to talk about. Look at and to talk about. And so I’m real excited about and so I’m real excited about the opportunity and having the the opportunity and having the community involved and oversight community involved and oversight on this in keeping on track and on this in keeping on track and making sure it goes to projects making sure it goes to projects that will benefit the whole that will benefit the whole community. Community. So that’s it and I’m sure, look so that’s it and I’m sure, look at that, not bad. At that, not bad. Thanks, dean. Thanks, dean.

I don’t think we have any action I don’t think we have any action this evening on this item? This evening on this item? I just have one question. I just have one question. Sure. Sure. I meant to ask earlier. I meant to ask earlier. I talked to our finance director I talked to our finance director with some questions about how with some questions about how much money can be bonded against much money can be bonded against the income from this increase. The income from this increase. Do you want to address that? Do you want to address that? I don’t know if joe or I don’t know if joe or MR. Lambeth want to address MR. Lambeth want to address that? That? As joe mentioned with this as joe mentioned with this process, the way it’s going now, process, the way it’s going now, we can’t do any bonding on it. We can’t do any bonding on it. We’d have to start another we’d have to start another process. Process. It would depend what percentage it would depend what percentage of the 4% was determined to be of the 4% was determined to be used for bonding. Used for bonding. We could have as much as we could have as much as 10 million, 15 million, 10 million, 15 million, depending on what the revenue is depending on what the revenue is for it. For it. So there’s questions on how much so there’s questions on how much it would be based on the percent it would be based on the percent that could be used for it. That could be used for it. Would that be 10 or would that be 10 or 15 million annually or over 15 million annually or over time? Time? Total. Total. Until the end of this … ? Until the end of this … ? Yes, so you bring up a really yes, so you bring up a really good point. Good point. What’s being proposed is to what’s being proposed is to increase the assessment by 4% increase the assessment by 4% through the existing term which through the existing term which ends in 2032. Ends in 2032. And so if you’re issuing bonds, and so if you’re issuing bonds, you probably would have let’s you probably would have let’s just say a 30-year time period, just say a 30-year time period, so there’s more that would need so there’s more that would need to be done to actually get a to be done to actually get a bond issuance done.
