SUMMARY On June 21, 2023, the City Council conducted a Public Hearing to amend the Baldwin Park's Municipal Code relating to State legislation established by Senate Bill (SB) 35 for Objective Design Standards, and Senate Bill (9) Development Standards. RECOMMENDATION It is recommended that the City Council adopt by title only Ordinance 1502 and Ordinance 1503, entitled, "AN ORDIANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF BALDWIN PARK, CALIFORNIA AMENDING THE CITY'S MUNICPAL CODE TITLE XV, LAND USAGE, CHAPTER, 153, ZONING CODE, SECTIONS 153.040.070, 153.070.020, 153.120.350, 153.120.360 AND 153.120.370 RELATING OBJECTIVE DESIGN STANDARDS (ODS) AND SENATE BILL S13 (9) DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS" FISCAL IMPACT The City applied and was awarded a LEAP planning grant from the State of California Housing and Community Development Department. The grant award is $300,000 of which $150,000, are allocated respectively to MIG consulting in July of 2021 to update the Housing Element (6th Cycle), and $150,000 to prepare Objective Design Standards and Senate Bill 9 (SB 9) development standards, amend appropriate sections of the Zoning Code, Subdivision Regulations, and preparation of the appropriate CEQA documentation. BACKGROUND The development of the Objective Design Standards (ODS) document has been a nearly yearlong process of working with internal departments, a consultant, and with the guidance of Planning Page 1 /4 Commission and City Council. Staff has done extensive research of City's existing documents that pertain to design standards for multi -family housing and mixed -use development such as the city-wide Design Guidelines, Municipal Code, state laws, and any other research items pertaining to the design standards to elevate the quality of the document. Staff worked with the consultant to establish objective design standards for new multi -family residential developments and mixed -use developments with a residential component, with the intent of achieving and maintaining high -quality site planning and building design in a manner that conforms to community design priorities. The developed objective design standards will apply to residential projects containing two (2) or more residential dwelling units, including duplexes, triplexes, flats, townhouses, and multi -story, mid -rise building types, and mixed -use projects with at least two-thirds of the square footage designated for residential use. The proposed standards cover a variety of items, including site design, building design and site details. In addition to developing ODS for multi -family and mixed -use projects, development standards regulating projects submitted under California Senate Bill 9 (SB 9) have been drafted. Under SB 9, local jurisdictions may not preclude the construction of up to two (2) primary dwelling units of at least 800 square feet each on a single-family lot and must review and approve single-family subdivisions ministerially under SB 9. Similar to the development of objective design standards for multi -family residential and mixed -use projects, Planning Staff and the consultant team sought community input and guidance from Planning Commission and City Council for the development of these standards. The proposed objective design standards are intended to help facilitate SB 9 developments, while preserving community character and design features that residents and community members have identified are important in Baldwin Park's single-family neighborhoods. RELATIONSHIP TO STATE HOUSING LEGISLATION Housing Accountability Act Originally passed by the California Legislature in 1982, the Housing Accountability Act ("HAX) (Government Code Section 65589.5) is designed to promote and encourage infill development and streamline housing approval processes. Over the intervening years, additional legislation and case law have clarified and refined its implementation and scope. In short, the HAA limits local jurisdictions' (cities and counties) authority by requiring that decision makers base the denial of a conforming housing development project on a very specific set of findings established by state law. At its core, the HAA requires that when a proposed housing development project meets all "applicable, objective general plan and zoning standards and criteria, including [objective] design review standards," the local agency cannot "disapprove the project" or "approve it upon the condition that the project be developed at a lower density" unless the agency makes two specific findings: 1. The project would have a specific adverse impact on the public health or safety unless the project were disapproved or developed at a lower density; and 2. There is no feasible method of mitigating or avoiding the impact other than disapproval or reduction in density. Pursuant to the HAA, a "housing development project" includes affordable or market -rate multifamily residential projects, specified mixed -use, and transitional or supportive housing. The various requirements in the HAA apply to all these types of projects, as well as emergency shelters. Although the term is not defined in the statute, objective standards generally include quantifiable requirements (such as building height, size, setbacks, and parking requirements) and other standards that do not require anyone to exercise personal or subjective judgment to determine compliance. Senate Bill ("SB") 35 Page 2 / 4 California State Senate Bill ("SB") 35 (Government Code Section 65913.4), which went into effect on January 1, 2018, was part of a comprehensive bill package aimed at addressing the State's housing shortage and high costs. SB 35 requires cities and counties to streamline review and approval of eligible affordable housing projects through a ministerial approval process, exempting such projects from environmental review under the California Environmental Quality Act ("CEQA"). This process does not allow public hearings to consider the merits of the project; rather only design review or public oversight of the development is allowed, which must be objective and strictly focused on assessing compliance with criteria required for streamlined projects as well as objective design review of the project (Section 65913.4(c)(1)). SB 35 required the availability of a streamlined ministerial approval process for multifamily residential developments in jurisdictions that have not yet made sufficient progress toward meeting their regional housing need allocation (RHNA) goal. Senate Bill ("SB") 330 California State Senate Bill ("SB") 330 Housing Crisis Act of 2019, which went into effect on January 1, 2020, and will sunset on January 1, 2025. The act amends existing state laws and creates new regulations around the production, preservation, and planning of housing. SB 330 will affect both project planning procedure and community planning outcomes by restricting local rules that limit housing production and further strengthens the Permit Streamlining Act adopted in 1977 (Government Code Section 65920 et seq.) and HAA. The intent of the Housing Crisis Act is to create certainty in the development of housing projects, speeding up the review of these projects, and to create restrictions on new local regulations. SB 330 prohibits cities and counties, including the electorate (by using its local initiative or referendum power), from establishing rules that would effectively: Change the land use designation or zoning of parcels to a less intensive use or reducing the intensity of the land use within an existing specific or general plan or zoning district below what was allowed under the land use designation as of January 1, 2018 Impose or enforce a moratorium on housing development within all or a selection of the local agency's jurisdictions. Impose or enforce new design standards established on or after January 1, 2020, that are not objective standards. Establish or implement limits on permit numbers issue by the city or county unless the limit was approved before January 1, 2005, in a "predominantly agricultural County." Senate Bill ("SB") 9 California State Senate Bill ("SB") 9, Ministerial Approval of Duplexes and Urban Lot Split, will go into effect January 1, 2022. SB 9 generally requires cities to ministerially approve, within single-family residential zones, housing developments containing no more than two residential units and parcels maps for urban lot splits. Ministerial approval means that the City cannot impose ad hoc conditions of approval that reflect an exercise of the City's discretion. Further, the City cannot deny an application solely because it "proposes adjacent or connected structures provided that the structures meet building code safety standards and are sufficient to allow separate conveyance." The City may impose objective zoning standards, subdivision standards, and design standards, provided that the objective standards do not preclude the development of up to two units of at least 800 square feet in floor area. Objective standards, as defined by the law, means standards that involve no personal or subjective judgment by a public official and are uniformly verifiable by reference to an external and uniform benchmark or criterion available and knowable by both the development applicant or proponent and the public official prior to submittal.

These zones should be separated from incompatible and disruptive activities that may conflict with this purpose. The zones are designed to accommodate specific types of development approaches and housing to serve the needs of city residents. (A) Low -Density Single -Family Residential Zone (R-1-7,500). The R-1-7,500 zone provides areas for the development of detached single-family dwelling units, duplexes, and two attached single-family dwelling units on a single lot on lots greater than or equal to 7,500 square feet in size. The zone is intended to protect and stabilize desirable characteristics of single-family residential areas, including larger lot sizes and separation from incompatible land uses. (B) Single -Family Residential Zone (R-1). The R-1 zone provides areas for the development of detached single-family dwelling units, duplexes, and two attached single-family dwelling units on a single lot. The zone is also intended to protect and stabilize desirable characteristics of single-family residential areas. (C) Garden Multi -Family Residential Zone (R-G). The R-G zone provides an environment suitable for both small -lot detached or attached dwelling units where more than one unit may be built on a lot. The intent is to promote desirable characteristics for medium - density neighborhoods. (D) High Density Multi -Family Residential Zone (R-3). The R-3 zone provides opportunities for persons to live in small -lot single family developments and developments containing multiple units, such as apartments or condominiums with common open space and other shared amenities.

RECOMMENDATION It is recommended that the City Council approve the attached Letter of Support for Digital Equity addressed to Supervisor Hilda Solis, and direct staff as deemed appropriate. FISCAL IMPACT There is no fiscal impact with this item. BACKGROUND The Los Angeles County's Digital Divide is rooted in part in widespread underinvestment in broadband infrastructure in low-income communities and communities of color, resulting in limited access to quality internet options with high speeds at reasonable cost. The digital divide, or the gap between those that have opportunities to access and benefit from the internet and those that do not, has been brought to the forefront during the COVID-19 pandemic. In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, the public and private sectors have prioritized digitizing and providing their services online, requiring residents to have basic internet connectivity to access these services. In 2020, 10% of Californians reported not having a desktop, laptop, or other computing device at home. Access was especially limited among low-income (23%), less -educated (16%), Black (15%), and Latino (15%) households. Notably, 5% of households with school -age children did not have home access to a device. The COVID-19 pandemic has changed daily routines for many and especially affected the way in which students learn through online education. Despite the flexibility in online learning and telecommuting, approximately 365,000 households in Los Angeles County are estimated to lack broadband internet service. This disproportionately impacts lower -income communities as well as populations that are predominantly Latino/a and Black from accessing high-speed internet service and connecting to critical information. The Digital Equity LA Coalition supported by the California Community Foundation Digital Equity Initiative documented what people were paying for home internet in diverse neighborhood across Los Angeles County. The 2021 finding raised significant red flags about the higher prices many in low - Page 1 / 2 income communities are charged for the same or inferior service, and the implication of those pricing disparities on the effectiveness of current interventions to close the digital divide. Cost was far and away the most consistent reason provided by families without high-speed internet for why they were disconnected.

Temple St, Room 856 Los Angeles, CA 90012 RE: Digital Equity Support for Action On behalf of the City of Baldwin Park, we write to share our exasperation and concern that Los Angeles County's Digital Divide is rooted in part in widespread underinvestment in broadband infrastructure in low-income communities and communities of color, resulting in limited access to quality internet options with high speeds at reasonable cost. The digital divide, or the gap between those that have opportunities to access and benefit from the internet and those that do not, has been brought to the forefront during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Cost was far and away the most consistent reason provided by families without high-speed internet for why they were disconnected. Considering the wide-ranging impacts on the digital divide on our residents' ability to thrive and the unsettling evidence in this report by the California Community Foundation — Digital Equity Los Angeles — Slower and More Expensive, Sounding the Alarm: Disparities in Advertised Pricing for Fast, Reliable Broadband, the community City of Baldwin Park ask you to lead a call to action to: Investigate and validate finding of potentially discriminatory disparities in advertised pricing. Make equal access (equal service at equal price, terms, and conditions) and truth in advertising the policy of the State of California. Build equal access into State, County, Local procurement practices. Support independent, community — driven options for broadband services. We urge you to collaborate with the other supervisorial districts to deliver a five - signature letter to the California Public Utilities Commission asking them to use their authority to investigate the finding in this report as it impacts California consumers. Sincerely, SIGNED BY MEMBERS OF THE CITY COUNCIL ITEM NO. 6 TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council * S FROM: Manuel Carrillo, Director of Recreation and Community �Q Services DATE: July 5, 2023 SUBJECT: Approval to operate Serenity Homes for an additional year SUMMARY The purpose of this report is for the City Council to consider the approval to operate Serenity Homes for and additional year and continue serving fifty (50) beds of interim housing for families experiencing homelessness at the Family Bridge Housing Project from September 23, 2023, to September 23, 2024. RECOMMENDATION It is recommended that the City Council consider the approval to operate Serenity Homes for an additional year and to continue serving fifty (50) beds of interim housing for families experiencing homelessness at the Family Bridge Housing Project. FISCAL IMPACT There is no fiscal impact to the general fund at this time. BACKGROUND At their August 17, 2022, City Council meeting, City Council approved the acceptance of a service agreement for consultant services by and between San Gabriel Valley Regional Housing Trust and Kingdom Causes, dba City Net and the City of Baldwin Park to operate the non -congregate bridge housing site for families experiencing homelessness at Serenity Homes. The Term agreement has an option to extend up to two (2) additional one-year terms by giving the consultant at least thirty (30) days written notice prior to the expiration of the Term or any extension thereof. To continue the operations at Serenity Homes for an additional year from September 23, 2023, to September 23, 2024, city staff is seeking the financial support from Los Angeles Homeless Services Authority (LAHSA) in the amount of $525,600; and the San Gabriel Valley Regional Housing Trust (SGVRHT) in the amount of $320,465. The office of LAHSA's Interim Housing Division in its FY 23-24 budget allocations have identified interest to support Serenity Homes for the operations of 16 units/50 beds of family bridge housing at the emergency non -congregate shelter. In accordance with LAHSA's funding guidelines, the following requirements must continue to be met to be eligible to receive the funds: • Using LAHSA funds to assist homeless families as defined by U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). No Los Angeles County Office of Education (LACOE) definition of homelessness can be used for eligibility for these units. • An agreed nexus to the City of Baldwin Park as (priority placement), but not exclusive to our City if units are not occupied with local residents • Housing First/Low Barrier (no background checks allowed) Page 1 / 2 • Ability to service undocumented families • $90 per unit per night ($10 more than the Cities and Council of Governments Interim Housing Services Funds) • Funding Timeframe- July 1, 2023, through June 30, 2024 (staff will seek alternatives for gap funding from July 2024- September 2024. Staff is also seeking the financial support of the San Gabriel Valley Regional Housing Trust (SGVRHT) to help contribute to the operations of the facility in the amount of $320,465. The official request to the SGVRHT will be reviewed by their governing board at their July 18, 2023, meeting. Pending the approval of the potential funding opportunities, staff will present at a subsequent meeting to City Council for their consideration to extend a one (1) year service agreement for consultant services by and between the City of Baldwin Park and Kingdom Causes, dba City Net to operate the Serenity Homes for year two (2) of operations scheduled from September 23, 2023, to September 23, 2024, at the estimated amount of $1,166,530.14. To meet the actual demands of the site per the first year of pilot period operations, the service agreement contract has increased by $168,567.28 from that of $997,962.86 in 2022-2023. The increases will ensure that following services are adequate at the site: staffing ratios to support facility oversight, project/contract compliance, program coordination, housing case management, housing navigation, HMIS data entry, reporting, data compliance, project oversight, quality control, personnel deployment, problem solving with clients, operations and public safety at the site. It is anticipated that a funding gap will exist in the amount of $320,465 to fully -fund the service agreement contract estimated at $1,166,530.14. Staff will explore all funding sources to support this gap and the annual utilities of approximately $50,000 and present final funding options for City Council consideration at a future meeting. The non -congregate shelter at Serenity Homes has been a pivotal tool in getting local families off the street of Baldwin Park and into temporary housing where they have actively worked in their housing plans to become document -ready while transitioning into permanent housing. If approved, families will continue to be provided with on -site services such as case management, three meals per day, and 24- hours security among other wrap -around and special event services. Serenity Homes has become a regional, County and national best -practice site for interim housing. ALTERNATIVES The alternative would be not to extend the service contract and to provide alternative direction. LEGAL REVIEW Legal review is not required.

The ordinance requires the Advisory Committee to recommend an annual budget; and State Law requires that a public hearing be held to adopt the resolution levying the assessment. Page 1 / 3 The Ordinance indicates that the funds can be used only for the following purposes: 1) Decoration of any public place 2) Promotion of public events which are to take place in the City 3) Furnishing of music in any public place 4) The general promotion of business activities BID Assessment Budget At the City Council Meeting of March 2, 2016, the City Council approved the designation of the Executive Team as the Business Improvement Advisory Committee.

As a public health practitioner, I recognize every decision we make is not just approving a developer to build new single-family residences with an accessory dwelling unit or a coffee company to expand their franchise to our city. It is a newly created space within an already existing space. How can this Impact and change for better (or worse) the well- being of our residents, business community, and our stakeholders? Does this negatively impact their mental and physical health? To answer these questions, I ensure that I read all staff reports thoroughly (especially the environmental impact report if applicable) beforehand, meet with department staff to clarify any unclear statements from the reports and appendices, ask questions to the subject matter experts and applicants during the meetings, and publicly state with I am voting for (or against) the staff recommendation. I owe it to the council and more importantly, to our community to do the due diligence and make an informed vote. As Vice -Chair of the Planning Commission, I am now a more seasoned and more experienced commissioner than I was in 2021. I'd like to be considered for reappointment to the commission so I can serve as a role model for 111 time appointment commissioners and so I can bring in the historical and Institutional knowledge of the planning department from the point of view of a commissioner and not a department staff member, As a participant of the Cal Cities' Planning Commissioner Academy and Vice - Chair, my job will be to be a bridge between our current commission to the next. I will ensure we can all navigate public hearings and public comment effectively, ensure we're asking the right questions, and ensure everyone feels confident making Informed decisions. Lastly, I'd like to be considered for reappointment as I am in a unique position. I was very fortunate to join the Measure BP Stakeholder Advisory Committee where the goal was to get as much input as possible not only from ourselves but also the residents, businesses, and other communities. I actively attended almost 95% of our community meetings hearing from all diverse perspectives. As we all know, the measure was approved by the council to be put on the ballot and voters of Baldwin Park voted for it and passing the measure. I can see Measure BP initiatives (pending community and council recommendations) being introduced to the Planning Commission within the next 2 years. I understand that as members of the Measure BP Stakeholder Advisory Committee, we pledged the funds would go to the benefit of the community. As a reappointed member of the Planning Commission, I would ensure that pledge is upheld with any decision we make in regard to Measure BP initiatives that go through the commission. I hope to be another 'check and balance' to the processes. Thank you for your time, and I look forward to continuing to serve the community of Baldwin Park in any capacity. I am fully committed to the success and growth of our community.

Zaldivar, Chief Executive Officer Sam Gutierrez, Director of Public Works iABRIEL, . DATE: July 5, 2023 SUBJECT: Request for Approval and Direction for Construction and Retail Use Elements Related to the Susan Rubio Zocalo Park and Civic Plaza Project — CIP No. 22-044 SUMMARY This item seeks to provide an update to the City Council on the construction progress for the Susan Rubio Zocalo Park and Civic Plaza Project including authorization to process contract change orders. Staff is also seeking City Council direction on project elements such as the approach for selecting content for interpretive signage, process for selecting vendors for the retail space use, consideration for installation of grease interceptors, and other design changes. RECOMMENDATION It is recommended that the City Council: 1. Direct Staff to select content for six (6) interpretive signs based on historical and cultural elements that highlight the City of Baldwin Park's unique history over the years. Staff will bring back the selected content for City Council approval at a subsequent meeting; and, 2. Authorize the Director of Community Development to publicize the availability of retail spaces for lease to the open market and bring back a listing of recommended commercial vendors for City Council consideration; and, 3. Authorize the Director of Public Works to negotiate and execute contract change order for the design and installation of two (2) grease interceptors for the retail spaces; and, 4. Authorize the Director of Public Works to execute a contract change order in the amount of $40,520 from the approved contingency budget for the redesign of the proposed Alley Road to accommodate changes resulting from negotiations with the various property owners; and, 5. Authorize the Director of Finance to make the necessary budget adjustments. FISCAL IMPACT The approval of this action will have no impact on the City's General Fund. The project is included in the current Fiscal Year's Capital Improvement Program (CIP) approved by City Council. There is no additional appropriation required. The funds are available in the approved budget for the project. BACKGROUND On October 19, 2022, the City Council accepted the Plans and Specifications for the City Project CIP 22-044 — Susan Rubio Zocalo Park and Civic Center Plaza and awarded a contract for construction to PCN3, Inc. of Los Alamitos, CA. The City Council also authorized the Director of Finance to budget $11,841,000 for construction costs including the prime construction contract, costs for demolition of vacant building, construction administration, construction management and inspection services, and construction contingency totaling $775,000. Page 1 / 3 On January 12, 2023, the city's contractor PCN3, began the mobilization for the main plaza construction located between Pacific Ave, Maine Ave, and Sterling Way. The construction contract for PCN3 included the construction of the main plaza and street improvements along Pacific Avenue and Sterling Way. Other relative work included the construction of a new retail building, new Alley Road along the backside of Ramona businesses fronting the park, and installation of a Pavilion prominently located at the center of the park. Soon after breaking ground, the project experienced construction delays due to inclement weather events, significantly impacting the project's timeline. The unpredictable weather conditions such as the heavy rain events experienced during the first quarter of the year, made it unsafe or impractical to continue construction activities, limiting the progress of the work. The adverse weather hampered excavation, concrete pouring, trenching for underground infrastructure, and other critical tasks, resulting in delays and disruptions. Due to this, the project is now scheduled to be substantially completed by end of December 2023 and project close-out by late February 2024. To date, City Staff and contractor have executed a total of six change orders totaling $ 93,510.87 and a credit for $ 202,000.00 for a net total credit of $108,489.13. The list of executed change orders and credits are summarized and attached to this report as Attachment 1. DISCUSSION Interpretative Signage As the construction of the project is underway, the contractor and design subconsultant are seeking direction from staff and the City Council regarding interpretative sign language and lettering for six concrete markers that will be engraved along the center walkway that leads to the Pavilion from both Sterling Way and Pacific Ave. An exhibit with a mock-up of the markers and their proposed locations is included in Attachment 2 to this report. Staff recommends that the City Council provide direction to select the content for the markers based on historical and cultural elements showcasing Baldwin Park's unique history. Staff will bring back the content for City Council consideration and approval at a subsequent meeting. Retail Space During the design of the building, it was uncertain what type of businesses would occupy the space. The final design allows for two to three (2 to 3) commercial business tenants and includes storage space and two restrooms. Total square footage of the retail space is 3,250 feet and can accommodate a wide variety of business types, such as offices, retail sales or food services including restaurants, coffee shops or bakeries. In anticipation of the completion of the project in February 2024, it would be advantageous for the City to commence the process for engaging with interested commercial businesses for leasing. In order to ensure that the new building spaces are occupied for retail near or shortly after completion, Staff recommends that the City Council authorize the Director of Community Development to publicize the availability of retail space to the general market and bring back a listing of interested businesses for City Council consideration and approval. Grease Interceptors for Retail Space The land use for the retail space is A-2 Occupancy and the design included providing the core and shell of the proposed building, with the intension that a future tenant will have the flexibility to convert space for either unit to retail or restaurant space. During construction the contractor will not pour the entire floor slab to leave room for a future tenant to install their own plumbing fixtures. However, a food service tenant may require the installation of a grease interceptor as part of the tenant improvements, which will result in site improvements post construction of the park. Since the Contractor is working on the Page 2 / 3 building pad and plumbing, it is ideal, to install a grease interceptor at this time, to help avoid post construction site improvements that may differ from the proposed park design and will make the retain space more attractive to future tenants that aim to use the space as a restaurant. Partial Redesign of Alley Road During construction it was determined that a portion of the alley improvements (one way street) between the park main plaza and local businesses on Ramona Blvd, where within three private properties. To be able to perform the improvements, the execution of a right of entry and authorization to perform construction must be secured. So far, staff has secured agreements for 14352 Ramona Blvd and 14300 Ramona Blvd. It is anticipated that the agreement for 14322 Ramona Blvd will be completed by mid - July, allowing staff to continue with the construction of the Alley Road without impact to the schedule. As part of the agreements, the City agreed to realign a portion of the alley entrance from Pacific Ave to accommodate the relocation of a private trash enclosure. The Alley Road will be shifted southerly circumventing a portion of 14352 Ramona and adding a landscaped buffer between the businesses and the park area. The City's consultant, LCDG and their design team has provided a proposal for the redesign the Alley which will include an exhibit for the contractor. Staff has accepted the proposal and is recommending that the City Council approve a contract change order in the amount of $40,520. The cost for the work will not require an additional funds appropriation and will be covered using the approved construction budget. ALTERNATIVES None CEQA REVIEW The subject project is categorically exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to a Class 32 (Section 15332, In -Fill Development), for meeting the five conditions set forth under section 15332, which include: the project is consistent with the applicable general plan designation and all applicable general plan policies as well as with applicable zoning designations and regulations under sub section, the proposed development occurs within the city limits on a project site of no more than five acres substantially surrounded by urban uses, the project site has no value, as habitat for endangered, rare of threatened species, and the approval of project will not result in any significant effects relating to traffic, noise, air quality, or water quality. In addition, none of the exceptions to categorical exemptions set for in CEQA guidelines Section 15300.2 apply to the proposed project.
