1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:03,000
It is time. Tiffany, are you ready to go?

2
00:00:03,000 --> 00:00:05,000
I am ready if you are mayor.

3
00:00:05,000 --> 00:00:12,000
I am ready. So welcome everyone. Welcome to our June 16th afternoon meeting of the

4
00:00:12,000 --> 00:00:15,000
Napa City Council. Could we have roll call, please?

5
00:00:15,000 --> 00:00:18,000
Council member is painter, here. Leros, here.

6
00:00:18,000 --> 00:00:19,000
Nerva, yes? Here.

7
00:00:19,000 --> 00:00:20,000
Vice Mayor Dina tolle, here.

8
00:00:20,000 --> 00:00:21,000
Mayor, essentially.

9
00:00:21,000 --> 00:00:22,000
Here.

10
00:00:22,000 --> 00:00:25,000
If you are able, can you please stand and join us in the pledge of allegiance?

11
00:00:30,000 --> 00:00:34,000
I pledge allegiance to the line in the day of the summer.

12
00:00:34,000 --> 00:00:40,000
In particular, public, for which day and nation, I'm going to be visible,

13
00:00:40,000 --> 00:00:42,000
with liberty and justice tomorrow.

14
00:00:50,000 --> 00:00:53,000
So the clerk, are there any changes to the agenda or supplemental reports?

15
00:00:53,000 --> 00:00:55,000
There are no changes to the agenda.

16
00:00:55,000 --> 00:00:58,000
Mayor, we do have supplemental reports for item 5.

17
00:00:58,000 --> 00:01:00,000
We have an email received from Sam Aldridge.

18
00:01:00,000 --> 00:01:04,000
And for item 9A, we have PowerPoint presentation from staff.

19
00:01:04,000 --> 00:01:06,000
Thank you so much.

20
00:01:06,000 --> 00:01:08,000
Item 400, agenda special presentations.

21
00:01:08,000 --> 00:01:10,000
Always a popular one is our pet of the month.

22
00:01:10,000 --> 00:01:14,000
We have Louis Ambris from the Napa County Animal Shelter.

23
00:01:14,000 --> 00:01:16,000
Here with an adoptable pet.

24
00:01:16,000 --> 00:01:20,000
I believe a beautiful little cat named Sawyer.

25
00:01:24,000 --> 00:01:26,000
This is always a challenging part.

26
00:01:26,000 --> 00:01:30,000
Can I handle both of at the same time?

27
00:01:30,000 --> 00:01:36,000
So if you notice me stumbling, it's most likely because she's trying to climb onto my shoulders.

28
00:01:36,000 --> 00:01:40,000
But this is Sawyer, as you guys can see on the screen.

29
00:01:40,000 --> 00:01:42,000
She is an eight week old tortoise.

30
00:01:42,000 --> 00:01:44,000
Katie, that just went up for adoption recently.

31
00:01:44,000 --> 00:01:46,000
She just came back from foster.

32
00:01:46,000 --> 00:01:50,000
So she, as you guys saw, somebody was holding her here.

33
00:01:50,000 --> 00:01:52,000
She's very gentle, very easy going.

34
00:01:52,000 --> 00:01:54,000
Not very unusual.

35
00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:56,000
She's used to all of the noises.

36
00:01:56,000 --> 00:01:58,000
So I was getting up.

37
00:01:58,000 --> 00:02:00,000
During the pledge of allegiance.

38
00:02:00,000 --> 00:02:02,000
People pulling her.

39
00:02:02,000 --> 00:02:04,000
She seems to be doing really well.

40
00:02:04,000 --> 00:02:06,000
She did come with a lyrical kiddies.

41
00:02:06,000 --> 00:02:08,000
All her siblings did get adopted.

42
00:02:08,000 --> 00:02:10,000
And it's basically just her in a big space.

43
00:02:10,000 --> 00:02:12,000
My hero.

44
00:02:12,000 --> 00:02:14,000
There he is a lot.

45
00:02:14,000 --> 00:02:16,000
But otherwise, she's a very, very sweet kiddie.

46
00:02:16,000 --> 00:02:18,000
The whole time that she's been here.

47
00:02:18,000 --> 00:02:20,000
She's basically been purring, waiting to gather.

48
00:02:20,000 --> 00:02:24,000
The moment I put her into her kennel, she lets me know, hey,

49
00:02:24,000 --> 00:02:25,000
I want to come out.

50
00:02:25,000 --> 00:02:26,000
I want to be in your arms.

51
00:02:26,000 --> 00:02:28,000
I want to be out in about.

52
00:02:28,000 --> 00:02:32,000
But yeah, adoptions are super, super easy at the animal shelter.

53
00:02:32,000 --> 00:02:33,000
You come in.

54
00:02:33,000 --> 00:02:34,000
You don't need any appointments.

55
00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:36,000
You fill out an application.

56
00:02:36,000 --> 00:02:38,000
You meet one on one with one of our adoption counselors.

57
00:02:38,000 --> 00:02:42,000
You get to meet the kitty, making sure that they're a good match for you.

58
00:02:42,000 --> 00:02:44,000
The adoption fee covers a spare new surgery.

59
00:02:44,000 --> 00:02:48,000
Microchip, vaccines, the warmers, fully in tick medication.

60
00:02:48,000 --> 00:02:51,000
We try to set everybody up for success.

61
00:02:51,000 --> 00:02:54,000
So when they do go home, that's the least that you have to worry about.

62
00:02:54,000 --> 00:02:58,000
All you have to worry about is how do I establish them into my home, into my routine.

63
00:02:58,000 --> 00:03:01,000
And then open, welcome them with open arms.

64
00:03:01,000 --> 00:03:03,000
And then you do a follow up with your veterinarian.

65
00:03:03,000 --> 00:03:05,000
So there are about 16 weeks old.

66
00:03:05,000 --> 00:03:09,000
And then from there, you guys are all set for your yearly visits.

67
00:03:09,000 --> 00:03:11,000
Thank you, Louise.

68
00:03:11,000 --> 00:03:15,000
Are you better walk, slowly you're up and down the aisles here.

69
00:03:15,000 --> 00:03:21,000
You're going to get everybody a chance to, you know, say hello.

70
00:03:21,000 --> 00:03:22,000
What a beauty.

71
00:03:37,000 --> 00:03:39,000
We could use a council cat.

72
00:03:39,000 --> 00:03:42,000
Council cat.

73
00:03:42,000 --> 00:03:44,000
Thank you so much.

74
00:03:44,000 --> 00:03:48,000
And adopt these loving little critters.

75
00:03:48,000 --> 00:03:52,000
It was for other homes, for ever homes.

76
00:03:52,000 --> 00:03:57,000
Next, under special presentations, we have the celebration of Juneteenth holiday.

77
00:03:57,000 --> 00:04:05,000
So we will tonight recognize Juneteenth, 2026, as National Independence Day, Juneteenth National Independence Day.

78
00:04:05,000 --> 00:04:08,000
Council members, do you have your proclamations?

79
00:04:08,000 --> 00:04:12,000
City of Napa, proclamation in recognition of Juneteenth.

80
00:04:12,000 --> 00:04:18,000
As the theme of Juneteenth, 2026, honoring the past, serving the present, inspiring the future.

81
00:04:18,000 --> 00:04:23,000
Calls upon us to remember that profound sacrifices and triumphs that have shaped our nation,

82
00:04:23,000 --> 00:04:31,000
to uplift and serve our communities today, and to recommit ourselves to building a future rooted in equity, unity, and opportunity for all.

83
00:04:31,000 --> 00:04:38,000
And whereas on January 1, 1863, President Abraham Lincoln signed the Emancipation Proclamation,

84
00:04:38,000 --> 00:04:44,000
providing that all persons held his slaves with any state or designated part of a state,

85
00:04:44,000 --> 00:04:48,000
shall be then then forward and forever free.

86
00:04:48,000 --> 00:04:54,000
And whereas the Emancipation Proclamation made the permanent abolition of slavery, a union war aim,

87
00:04:54,000 --> 00:05:01,000
and provided the legal framework for the emancipation of nearly all four million slaves as a union army advanced.

88
00:05:01,000 --> 00:05:09,000
And whereas in June 17, 2021, President Joe Biden signed a bill establishing Juneteenth National Independence Day,

89
00:05:09,000 --> 00:05:15,000
as a 12th federal public holiday, and the first one established since Martin Luther King,

90
00:05:15,000 --> 00:05:18,000
Juner's birthday recognized in 1983.

91
00:05:18,000 --> 00:05:24,000
And whereas Napa acknowledges Juneteenth as a data seek to understand the experience of others,

92
00:05:24,000 --> 00:05:30,000
and commit ourselves to significant and lasting improvements in the city of Napa in the United States.

93
00:05:31,000 --> 00:05:34,000
Now there, forward, be it resolved that I Scott said,

94
00:05:34,000 --> 00:05:36,000
usually mayor of the city of Napa along with the city council,

95
00:05:36,000 --> 00:05:43,000
to hereby proclaim June 1926 as the Juneteenth National Independence Day,

96
00:05:43,000 --> 00:05:49,000
and above all recognized Juneteenth as a day of reflection and remembrance,

97
00:05:49,000 --> 00:05:57,000
and of opportunity to truly learn about and acknowledge this period of time in our history.

98
00:05:58,000 --> 00:06:01,000
Day to June 1626.

99
00:06:01,000 --> 00:06:04,000
Very well, and I know we have J.T. Thompson here tonight with us,

100
00:06:04,000 --> 00:06:09,000
and maybe some friends of J.T. from the people for policy, before policy,

101
00:06:09,000 --> 00:06:14,000
and the will accept J.T.

102
00:06:16,000 --> 00:06:18,000
Thank you.

103
00:06:18,000 --> 00:06:22,000
Thank you, Mayor Scott, gradually in all the city council members.

104
00:06:22,000 --> 00:06:29,000
I appreciate you all for acknowledging such an important thing.

105
00:06:29,000 --> 00:06:34,000
And so, you know, I usually try to write something and have something,

106
00:06:34,000 --> 00:06:38,000
but I didn't today, and so what I do want to say is that,

107
00:06:38,000 --> 00:06:45,000
you know, June 10th is, you know, it is something that America should celebrate.

108
00:06:45,000 --> 00:06:49,000
And so, I know we have worked at July, and we're going to be out there,

109
00:06:49,000 --> 00:06:54,000
popping fireworks, and I think we just have that same energy this Friday for June 10th.

110
00:06:54,000 --> 00:06:58,000
And so, if you're not barbecuing at home, if you,

111
00:06:58,000 --> 00:07:02,000
then make sure you try to get down to maybe, you know,

112
00:07:02,000 --> 00:07:06,000
a state-line barbecuing down the street, or a little sister goaties,

113
00:07:06,000 --> 00:07:10,000
or if you want to take the trip up to Caldestoga and go to Busters and have some barbecues,

114
00:07:10,000 --> 00:07:16,000
but I think this is the time where we need to celebrate freedom day.

115
00:07:16,000 --> 00:07:20,000
And so, I know some of you are off, and some of them, you aren't,

116
00:07:20,000 --> 00:07:29,000
but just take a little bit of time just to reflect on June 19th as another important day of freedom in America.

117
00:07:29,000 --> 00:07:32,000
Thank you.

118
00:07:32,000 --> 00:07:35,000
You can come up for a picture.

119
00:07:35,000 --> 00:07:38,000
You know, in GT, you don't need to write anything down when it comes from the heart.

120
00:07:38,000 --> 00:07:40,000
I mean, that's just the best way to do it.

121
00:07:40,000 --> 00:07:43,000
So we're gonna have to hide if you don't want me to get a picture.

122
00:08:00,000 --> 00:08:01,000
You all fit?

123
00:08:01,000 --> 00:08:11,000
Thank you so much.

124
00:08:11,000 --> 00:08:13,000
Thank you so much.

125
00:08:13,000 --> 00:08:16,000
Thank you so much.

126
00:08:16,000 --> 00:08:17,000
Thank you.

127
00:08:17,000 --> 00:08:19,000
Thank you, sir.

128
00:08:31,000 --> 00:08:43,000
All right.

129
00:08:43,000 --> 00:08:47,000
At this time, on our agenda, it's time for public comment.

130
00:08:47,000 --> 00:08:48,000
General public comment.

131
00:08:48,000 --> 00:08:52,000
I think we're gonna start off public comment with some inner quick introductions.

132
00:08:52,000 --> 00:08:58,000
I think from our internship program, it's kind of been revamped.

133
00:08:58,000 --> 00:08:59,000
All right.

134
00:08:59,000 --> 00:09:04,000
Let's meet some of our future.

135
00:09:04,000 --> 00:09:09,000
We can plug this under public comments, so we could roll on board now.

136
00:09:09,000 --> 00:09:12,000
And so, MJ.

137
00:09:12,000 --> 00:09:13,000
Yes.

138
00:09:13,000 --> 00:09:15,000
Thank you, Mr. Mayor.

139
00:09:15,000 --> 00:09:16,000
Council.

140
00:09:16,000 --> 00:09:19,000
MJ Twarrow's interim HR director.

141
00:09:19,000 --> 00:09:25,000
And I'm pleased to introduce the city of Napa's 2021 summer intern cohort.

142
00:09:25,000 --> 00:09:38,000
This year, we have seven talented interns joining us across several departments, where they will gain valuable experience in local government, contribute to projects that serve our community and participate in professional development workshops.

143
00:09:38,000 --> 00:09:46,000
The internship program is an important opportunity to support emerging professionals while fostering interest in public service.

144
00:09:46,000 --> 00:09:53,000
Our interns are Nadia and Tyler from community resources and development department.

145
00:09:54,000 --> 00:09:58,000
Diana and Diego from public works.

146
00:09:58,000 --> 00:10:07,000
Sonia and Vien from Parks and Rec and King from utilities.

147
00:10:07,000 --> 00:10:15,000
We're excited to have them with us this summer and look forward to their contributions that will make their time with the city even more impactful and help our community.

148
00:10:15,000 --> 00:10:20,000
So please join me in giving our summer interns a warm welcome to the city of Napa.

149
00:10:20,000 --> 00:10:25,000
Thank you so much.

150
00:10:25,000 --> 00:10:30,000
Great to meet you and thanks for sticking through for the whole meeting.

151
00:10:30,000 --> 00:10:32,000
And that's the evening session also.

152
00:10:32,000 --> 00:10:33,000
We expect you here for that.

153
00:10:33,000 --> 00:10:36,000
So that's part of the internship program.

154
00:10:36,000 --> 00:10:37,000
Thank you.

155
00:10:37,000 --> 00:10:38,000
Public comments.

156
00:10:38,000 --> 00:10:41,000
More public information during the public comment portion of the meeting.

157
00:10:41,000 --> 00:10:47,000
The public is invited to address the city council on any item within the subject matter jurisdiction of the council.

158
00:10:47,000 --> 00:10:53,000
Please focus your comments on either past actions taken by the council or proposed future actions to be taken by the council.

159
00:10:53,000 --> 00:10:57,000
However, if the subject matter of the public comment is not an agenda.

160
00:10:57,000 --> 00:11:01,000
The city council is strictly limited to responding to that item.

161
00:11:01,000 --> 00:11:06,000
And I believe we had one public going to start with cards and then you had one first one.

162
00:11:06,000 --> 00:11:10,000
No, I do have four cards including councilman.

163
00:11:11,000 --> 00:11:13,000
Barbra Montaldo.

164
00:11:13,000 --> 00:11:16,000
Eve Con and Jim Hinton.

165
00:11:16,000 --> 00:11:18,000
Good afternoon council.

166
00:11:18,000 --> 00:11:23,000
So pleasure to be here.

167
00:11:23,000 --> 00:11:24,000
It's an honor.

168
00:11:24,000 --> 00:11:29,000
My first time here in these chambers.

169
00:11:29,000 --> 00:11:37,000
I am a former city councilman in the communist Republic of Katadi.

170
00:11:37,000 --> 00:11:38,000
So I'm happy to be here.

171
00:11:38,000 --> 00:11:41,000
I'm a long time resident of Katadi as well.

172
00:11:41,000 --> 00:11:44,000
And I have business interests here in Napa.

173
00:11:44,000 --> 00:11:50,000
And I sent the city council and the citation parking citation a letter.

174
00:11:50,000 --> 00:11:53,000
I don't expect you to remember everything in the letter.

175
00:11:53,000 --> 00:12:01,000
But I received two parking citations in the same spot at the same time on the same day.

176
00:12:01,000 --> 00:12:05,000
And I thought it was a little heavy handed, you know, a little over the top.

177
00:12:05,000 --> 00:12:08,000
And very rare to get two citations in the same spot.

178
00:12:08,000 --> 00:12:12,000
So I took it upon myself and a timely manner to go into to code enforcement.

179
00:12:12,000 --> 00:12:15,000
And I had the pleasure of meeting Mr. Valides.

180
00:12:15,000 --> 00:12:17,000
Brought me into his office.

181
00:12:17,000 --> 00:12:20,000
We sat down very impressed by this gentleman.

182
00:12:20,000 --> 00:12:24,000
Took his time to meet with me and hear me out on everything.

183
00:12:24,000 --> 00:12:29,000
And explained my situation with my photographs and so forth and he said,

184
00:12:29,000 --> 00:12:33,000
Well, I think I'm going to review this with public works.

185
00:12:33,000 --> 00:12:35,000
There's some problems with the signage out there.

186
00:12:35,000 --> 00:12:37,000
You know, no guarantee, Mr. Barrage.

187
00:12:37,000 --> 00:12:38,000
But we're going to take a look at that.

188
00:12:38,000 --> 00:12:40,000
So I appreciate that very much.

189
00:12:40,000 --> 00:12:46,000
I did file an appeal in order to take my case to the next level for review.

190
00:12:46,000 --> 00:12:52,000
And the findings were against me and were completely erroneous.

191
00:12:52,000 --> 00:12:56,000
So I'm going to the next level of having a hearing, right?

192
00:12:56,000 --> 00:12:59,000
The citation processing center requires us to go online.

193
00:12:59,000 --> 00:13:01,000
I raised my objection.

194
00:13:01,000 --> 00:13:03,000
I think I thought that that's abusive.

195
00:13:03,000 --> 00:13:05,000
I think that's not right.

196
00:13:05,000 --> 00:13:09,000
It causes senior citizens to have certain technologies available to them.

197
00:13:09,000 --> 00:13:11,000
Can't present your witnesses.

198
00:13:11,000 --> 00:13:14,000
Can't present your photographs with a phone in your hand.

199
00:13:14,000 --> 00:13:19,000
And so I asked for the second level to be in person somewhere in your offices.

200
00:13:19,000 --> 00:13:22,000
Or I asked Mr. Howard in the code enforcement.

201
00:13:22,000 --> 00:13:26,000
If I could just maybe use one of the computers in the office where I can go online.

202
00:13:26,000 --> 00:13:29,000
And that was not an option to use a city computer.

203
00:13:29,000 --> 00:13:31,000
He actually asked me.

204
00:13:31,000 --> 00:13:33,000
I could go to the city library.

205
00:13:33,000 --> 00:13:36,000
Which I thought was kind of funny because, you know,

206
00:13:36,000 --> 00:13:40,000
that's a kind of a private area to be putting on a hearing in front of everybody.

207
00:13:40,000 --> 00:13:43,000
But that's why I tried not to chuckle.

208
00:13:43,000 --> 00:13:50,000
So I've been contacted the citation processing center.

209
00:13:50,000 --> 00:13:52,000
They've been very gracious and very kind.

210
00:13:52,000 --> 00:13:56,000
And I've been granted an in-person hearing somewhere in this town.

211
00:13:56,000 --> 00:13:57,000
So I'm going to get that letter.

212
00:13:57,000 --> 00:13:58,000
Which is good.

213
00:13:58,000 --> 00:13:59,000
It's good process.

214
00:13:59,000 --> 00:14:01,000
But here's my point for you.

215
00:14:07,000 --> 00:14:08,000
This should be available.

216
00:14:08,000 --> 00:14:12,000
This an in-person hearing should be available to every citizen in this town.

217
00:14:12,000 --> 00:14:16,000
You know, I just really should, especially for seniors, handicapped,

218
00:14:16,000 --> 00:14:19,000
ADA accommodations and so forth.

219
00:14:19,000 --> 00:14:20,000
It should be.

220
00:14:20,000 --> 00:14:24,000
And as you can see that this is not a financial issue for me.

221
00:14:24,000 --> 00:14:26,000
This is a matter of principle.

222
00:14:26,000 --> 00:14:27,000
Okay.

223
00:14:27,000 --> 00:14:33,000
And I asked for an ADA accommodation for a little more time.

224
00:14:33,000 --> 00:14:38,000
And that it's arguably

225
00:14:38,000 --> 00:14:45,000
an oppressive and de-force citizens into an online type of hearing

226
00:14:45,000 --> 00:14:48,000
with a company out of a new part beach.

227
00:14:48,000 --> 00:14:53,000
Just not meet the smell test.

228
00:14:53,000 --> 00:14:57,000
And it forces, I think it forces citizens to pay up.

229
00:14:57,000 --> 00:15:00,000
And not go through this argument's process.

230
00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:08,000
Just write a check. And I think I would like you to just review that process. I'm very honored that I'm going to be allowed an in-person hearing.

231
00:15:08,000 --> 00:15:18,000
And I did want to let you know, lastly, that I did meet with Corino Ruiz in the parking citation department to make sure my hearing is scheduled.

232
00:15:18,000 --> 00:15:23,000
And I was a little concerned because she was wearing a body camera.

233
00:15:23,000 --> 00:15:30,000
And I don't believe it's legal in administrative settings like that to be recording the public.

234
00:15:30,000 --> 00:15:36,000
I think it's against your city policy. I think it's also ease dropping out in public out on the street.

235
00:15:36,000 --> 00:15:41,000
In these chambers and so forth is legal. But in that type of setting, I think that's overreach.

236
00:15:41,000 --> 00:15:45,000
And I'd like you to look at that or have city manager look at that as well.

237
00:15:45,000 --> 00:15:50,000
Because I'd also like you to please put a administrative hold on that body camera footage.

238
00:15:50,000 --> 00:15:54,000
In case you should, we should need to take a look at that before it's erased.

239
00:15:54,000 --> 00:15:57,000
Thank you very much on pleasure to be here tonight today.

240
00:15:57,000 --> 00:16:00,000
Thank you, Bob. Good luck.

241
00:16:03,000 --> 00:16:06,000
Next speaker.

242
00:16:06,000 --> 00:16:11,000
If your name was called, come on up with no particular order.

243
00:16:11,000 --> 00:16:13,000
Hi. Good afternoon, Mayor.

244
00:16:13,000 --> 00:16:16,000
I'm members of the NAPCA Council. My name is Barbara Montaldo.

245
00:16:16,000 --> 00:16:19,000
I'm the executive director of moving forward towards independence.

246
00:16:19,000 --> 00:16:26,000
I'm speaking to you to raise the public safety concern regarding the intersection of film street and Franklin Street in the city of NAPA.

247
00:16:26,000 --> 00:16:33,000
Moving forward, which has been in NAPA going on 28 years, is one of the organizations directly impacted by conditions of this location.

248
00:16:33,000 --> 00:16:39,000
This intersection serves a wide range of community members due to their diverse and high level pedestrian activity.

249
00:16:39,000 --> 00:16:42,000
Safety at this intersection is a significant concern.

250
00:16:42,000 --> 00:16:45,000
It's a busy intersection in our local neighborhood.

251
00:16:45,000 --> 00:16:48,000
And you safety improvements to better protect our community and families.

252
00:16:48,000 --> 00:16:53,000
Several vulnerable populations regularly cross at Elm and Franklin, including young children attending

253
00:16:53,000 --> 00:16:55,000
Sheer Elementary School and their families.

254
00:16:55,000 --> 00:16:59,000
Members of Congregation Beth Charlombe and their families and children.

255
00:16:59,000 --> 00:17:04,000
Participants and families attending Mackay, Swim School or events at the NAPA Wellness Club.

256
00:17:04,000 --> 00:17:07,000
Neurological diverse adults at our program.

257
00:17:07,000 --> 00:17:11,000
I'm moving forward towards independence that live nearby in our Elm Street cyclists.

258
00:17:11,000 --> 00:17:15,000
Using Franklin Street as a bicycle Boulevard and children.

259
00:17:15,000 --> 00:17:17,000
Playing a nearby corner park.

260
00:17:17,000 --> 00:17:21,000
Currently the intersection is controlled by four way stop signs.

261
00:17:21,000 --> 00:17:25,000
However, these measures are not sufficient to ensure the safety of pedestrians in cyclists.

262
00:17:25,000 --> 00:17:32,000
Drivers frequently fail to come to a police stop or begin moving again while pedestrians are still crossing.

263
00:17:32,000 --> 00:17:35,000
There have been too many close calls at this intersection over the years.

264
00:17:35,000 --> 00:17:38,000
Speeding cars are distracted drivers.

265
00:17:38,000 --> 00:17:42,000
Combine with the presence of vulnerable populations create a heightened safety risk.

266
00:17:42,000 --> 00:17:48,000
The risk increases after darks when visibility is reduced and residents are children may be traveling on foot

267
00:17:48,000 --> 00:17:51,000
and addition to lighting at the intersection is inadequate.

268
00:17:51,000 --> 00:17:52,000
Our group.

269
00:17:52,000 --> 00:17:55,000
We advise them to wear yellow safety vests and carry flashlights.

270
00:17:55,000 --> 00:17:58,000
So cars can see us when we're crossing the crosswalks.

271
00:17:58,000 --> 00:18:02,000
For these reasons, I respectfully ask if you could help us with this project.

272
00:18:02,000 --> 00:18:05,000
We thank you for your time consideration.

273
00:18:05,000 --> 00:18:07,000
Thank you.

274
00:18:15,000 --> 00:18:18,000
Good afternoon council. Nice to see you again.

275
00:18:18,000 --> 00:18:22,000
For those of you who don't know me, I am President of Convocation Bestialone.

276
00:18:22,000 --> 00:18:29,000
We are very close to the Elm and Franklin intersection.

277
00:18:29,000 --> 00:18:34,000
For those of you who don't know, we have Sunday School with religious training.

278
00:18:34,000 --> 00:18:36,000
We have a camp that's going on this summer.

279
00:18:36,000 --> 00:18:39,000
We have Mackay Swim School in the back.

280
00:18:39,000 --> 00:18:44,000
And so there are parents and children who are constantly coming in and out of that area.

281
00:18:44,000 --> 00:18:45,000
We have a very small parking area.

282
00:18:45,000 --> 00:18:50,000
So that puts a lot of families, especially for the pool.

283
00:18:50,000 --> 00:18:57,000
And so if I don't necessarily see as much as she does because she's a little closer.

284
00:18:57,000 --> 00:19:03,000
But the situation is if there's a four always stop and people are not using it.

285
00:19:03,000 --> 00:19:06,000
What's the best way to protect the people who are using it?

286
00:19:06,000 --> 00:19:10,000
And I know I live close to Browns Valley Elementary.

287
00:19:10,000 --> 00:19:12,000
I see all over town.

288
00:19:12,000 --> 00:19:15,000
You have these things with the flashing lights and you push the button.

289
00:19:15,000 --> 00:19:19,000
There doesn't seem to be anything that was protecting that intersection.

290
00:19:19,000 --> 00:19:22,000
Especially from sheer school, which is the closest.

291
00:19:22,000 --> 00:19:27,000
So an application has been a sent to public works.

292
00:19:27,000 --> 00:19:29,000
I know this is not within your jurisdiction.

293
00:19:29,000 --> 00:19:35,000
But one of the things I would suggest it's all possible is to improve the priority if that.

294
00:19:35,000 --> 00:19:39,000
I would love to have that done during the summer before school starts.

295
00:19:39,000 --> 00:19:42,000
So thank you for your consideration.

296
00:19:42,000 --> 00:19:44,000
Thank you.

297
00:19:44,000 --> 00:19:51,000
Next speaker.

298
00:19:51,000 --> 00:19:56,000
Jim.

299
00:19:56,000 --> 00:20:04,000
Anyone else, or will wrap up General Public comment?

300
00:20:04,000 --> 00:20:05,000
Thank you.

301
00:20:05,000 --> 00:20:08,000
And yeah, the intersections.

302
00:20:09,000 --> 00:20:10,000
Staff is here.

303
00:20:10,000 --> 00:20:11,000
Staff is taking notes.

304
00:20:11,000 --> 00:20:14,000
So we know we follow all this and look into it.

305
00:20:14,000 --> 00:20:17,000
So I know that that is a busy intersection.

306
00:20:17,000 --> 00:20:18,000
Thank you for that.

307
00:20:18,000 --> 00:20:23,000
And thank you Mr. Valdez for your working with that gentleman.

308
00:20:23,000 --> 00:20:26,000
The parking citations.

309
00:20:26,000 --> 00:20:30,000
Thank you all.

310
00:20:30,000 --> 00:20:33,000
We now move to our consent calendar.

311
00:20:33,000 --> 00:20:38,000
Consent calendar items are considered routine and may be approved by a single load of the council.

312
00:20:38,000 --> 00:20:45,000
However, members of the public city council, or city council may request that a consent item be pulled for discussion.

313
00:20:45,000 --> 00:20:58,000
There are 16 consent items identified on the agenda for tonight item 6A through 6P and I will pull item 6G for discussion.

314
00:20:58,000 --> 00:21:02,000
Are there any other consent items to be pulled?

315
00:21:02,000 --> 00:21:08,000
Any discussion from council or an action to move the remainder of the consent calendar?

316
00:21:08,000 --> 00:21:11,000
I move the approval of the remainder of the consent calendar.

317
00:21:11,000 --> 00:21:13,000
The motion by council member Leros.

318
00:21:13,000 --> 00:21:14,000
Second.

319
00:21:14,000 --> 00:21:16,000
Second by Vice Mayor Dina Talley, Allen Favor.

320
00:21:16,000 --> 00:21:26,000
I opposed carries item 6G as a single lot of report for fiscal year ended June 30, 2025.

321
00:21:26,000 --> 00:21:31,000
So the recommended action is to file a city single action audit report.

322
00:21:31,000 --> 00:21:38,000
So coming up for a little question that I don't know what exactly the question was.

323
00:21:38,000 --> 00:21:47,000
But our finance director quick update on the item.

324
00:21:47,000 --> 00:21:51,000
Finance director Donna Lee will be speaking to that item.

325
00:21:51,000 --> 00:21:55,000
There was some question regarding two findings that were made.

326
00:21:55,000 --> 00:21:57,000
So she will explain further.

327
00:21:57,000 --> 00:21:59,000
Thank you city manager.

328
00:21:59,000 --> 00:22:03,000
Thank you mayor and council Donna Lee finance director.

329
00:22:03,000 --> 00:22:09,000
Yes, the findings identified in the single audit relate to the fiscal year that ended June 30, 2025,

330
00:22:09,000 --> 00:22:12,000
which was prior to my employment with the city.

331
00:22:12,000 --> 00:22:21,000
And while the findings are important and taken very seriously, they reflect conditions that existed during the audit period that was under review.

332
00:22:21,000 --> 00:22:24,000
Rather than the current state of the finance department.

333
00:22:24,000 --> 00:22:34,000
So since joining the city, one of my primary focuses has been strengthening the finance department's organizational capacity and internal control environment.

334
00:22:34,000 --> 00:22:43,000
And we have recruited and hired more experienced personnel and to keep positions including leadership and our supervisory roles within the department,

335
00:22:43,000 --> 00:22:50,000
which has significantly improved our ability to maintain appropriate review and oversight processes.

336
00:22:51,000 --> 00:23:01,000
In addition, staff have enhanced policies and procedures to provide clear guidance and consistency in our financial reporting activities.

337
00:23:01,000 --> 00:23:13,000
And we've also implemented additional training to ensure staff understand both the technical requirements and internal control expectations associated with their responsibilities.

338
00:23:13,000 --> 00:23:25,000
So we are committed to continuous improvement and believe actions taken position the city well for any of our future audits and also in continued strong financial stewardship.

339
00:23:25,000 --> 00:23:28,000
Is there any other questions?

340
00:23:28,000 --> 00:23:29,000
Thank you.

341
00:23:29,000 --> 00:23:36,000
Any public comment on the item before I go back to council for questions or clarifications or actions.

342
00:23:36,000 --> 00:23:40,000
Thank you, Donna.

343
00:23:41,000 --> 00:23:44,000
Anybody satisfied with the response?

344
00:23:44,000 --> 00:23:46,000
Seems like we're good.

345
00:23:46,000 --> 00:23:47,000
Nobody in the audience.

346
00:23:47,000 --> 00:23:52,000
So all entertainment motion to move consent item 6G.

347
00:23:52,000 --> 00:23:56,000

Any opposed?

351
00:24:01,000 --> 00:24:02,000
Thank you.

352
00:24:02,000 --> 00:24:04,000
Thank you, Donna, for that.

Thank you.

358
00:24:29,000 --> 00:24:30,000
Thank you, Mayor.

359
00:24:31,000 --> 00:24:32,000
Council.

360
00:24:32,000 --> 00:24:33,000
Long time no see.

361
00:24:33,000 --> 00:24:34,000
Could it be back?

362
00:24:34,000 --> 00:24:38,000
Today's staff is recommending the appointment of Renee.

363
00:24:38,000 --> 00:24:42,000
Dia Comini Brewer as the city of Napa's next city attorney.

364
00:24:42,000 --> 00:24:45,000
And approval of the company employment agreement.

365
00:24:45,000 --> 00:24:50,000
Ms. Brewer currently serves as assistant county council for the county of Marin.

366
00:24:50,000 --> 00:24:54,000
And brings more than three decades of public agency legal experience.

367
00:24:54,000 --> 00:24:57,000
Since joining the county of Marin in 1995.

368
00:24:57,000 --> 00:25:03,000
She has advised and supported local government operations across a broad range of municipal legal matters.

369
00:25:03,000 --> 00:25:07,000
Throughout the recruitment process, Ms. Brewer demonstrated the professionalism,

370
00:25:07,000 --> 00:25:12,000
judgment and commitment to public service that will serve the city and this council.

371
00:25:12,000 --> 00:25:14,000
Well, in the role of city attorney.

372
00:25:14,000 --> 00:25:18,000
Unfortunately, Ms. Brewer is unable to be here in person today.

373
00:25:18,000 --> 00:25:23,000
But she has asked that we convey her sincere appreciation for the council's consideration.

374
00:25:23,000 --> 00:25:30,000
Her excitement about the opportunity to serve the Napa community and her regret that she could not be present for tonight's meeting.

375
00:25:30,000 --> 00:25:37,000
The employment agreement is for initial term of three years with an annual salary of $290,000.

376
00:25:37,000 --> 00:25:43,000
Staff recommends that the city council adopt the resolution of pointy Ms. Brewer as the city attorney.

377
00:25:43,000 --> 00:25:46,000
Effective August 24th, 2020.

378
00:25:46,000 --> 00:25:50,000
And approve the employment agreement as presented.

379
00:25:50,000 --> 00:25:52,000
I'll be happy to answer any questions.

380
00:25:52,000 --> 00:25:56,000
Thank you, MJ. Any public comment on this item?

381
00:25:56,000 --> 00:25:58,000
I have no cards in there.

382
00:25:58,000 --> 00:25:59,000
No cards.

383
00:25:59,000 --> 00:26:02,000
In fact, the council, I can kick it off.

384
00:26:02,000 --> 00:26:05,000
I mean, this has been a process and we've certainly enjoyed it.

385
00:26:05,000 --> 00:26:12,000
We're working with Chris deus and BBK. They've been great filling in for us at the city attorney's role.

386
00:26:12,000 --> 00:26:18,000
You know, the council felt that an in-house legal council is important to the organization.

387
00:26:18,000 --> 00:26:21,000
So we moved towards that goal.

388
00:26:21,000 --> 00:26:27,000
The council member Leris and I worked as an ad hoc to try to help to do the recruitment process.

389
00:26:27,000 --> 00:26:33,000
And so we were very pleased when we found Renee.

390
00:26:33,000 --> 00:26:35,000
And so excited to get that moving along.

391
00:26:35,000 --> 00:26:40,000
So any other comments from council?

392
00:26:40,000 --> 00:26:44,000
I want me to get you married.

393
00:26:44,000 --> 00:26:47,000
I can press the button too, it doesn't matter.

394
00:26:47,000 --> 00:26:51,000
I was going to go ahead and echo your comments and make a motion.

395
00:26:51,000 --> 00:26:56,000
I wish the start date was even earlier, but I know she's got to take care of some stuff.

396
00:26:56,000 --> 00:27:01,000
But we're very excited to have her come on and we appreciate everything that Chris and his firm has done for us.

397
00:27:01,000 --> 00:27:04,000
Most of us, Ellie.

398
00:27:04,000 --> 00:27:07,000
And I'll just make one minor echo comment.

399
00:27:07,000 --> 00:27:11,000
And just want to thank both council member Leris and Mayor Sedgley.

400
00:27:11,000 --> 00:27:18,000
It's been a lot of work and also obviously thanks to Chris for all of the service to bring us to this point.

401
00:27:18,000 --> 00:27:22,000
And I will second that motion.

402
00:27:22,000 --> 00:27:23,000
All right.

403
00:27:23,000 --> 00:27:25,000
We have a motion by council mayor Leris.

404
00:27:25,000 --> 00:27:30,000
Seconded by council member Painer to approve this action all in favor signify by saying hi.

405
00:27:30,000 --> 00:27:31,000
Hi.

406
00:27:31,000 --> 00:27:32,000
Hi.

407
00:27:32,000 --> 00:27:35,000
Carried unanimously.

408
00:27:35,000 --> 00:27:37,000
Thank you, MJ.

409
00:27:42,000 --> 00:27:47,000
Mayor.

410
00:27:47,000 --> 00:27:48,000
Mayor.

411
00:27:48,000 --> 00:27:49,000
Mayor.

412
00:27:49,000 --> 00:27:50,000
I'm sorry to interrupt.

413
00:27:50,000 --> 00:27:52,000
But before we get to the next item, I did.

414
00:27:52,000 --> 00:27:54,000
I noticed that we did forget to make a.

415
00:27:54,000 --> 00:27:57,000
Um, acknowledge some folks in the audience after the consent.

416
00:27:57,000 --> 00:27:59,000
I can't understand who we're just a person.

417
00:27:59,000 --> 00:28:00,000
I'm in the back.

418
00:28:00,000 --> 00:28:01,000
Before we got there.

419
00:28:01,000 --> 00:28:02,000
You got me.

420
00:28:02,000 --> 00:28:03,000
Where's the tennis ball?

421
00:28:03,000 --> 00:28:04,000
I know.

422
00:28:04,000 --> 00:28:05,000
I'm sorry.

423
00:28:05,000 --> 00:28:07,000
It's the bounce went off me when I skipped something.

424
00:28:07,000 --> 00:28:09,000
But I had that all highlighted.

425
00:28:10,000 --> 00:28:11,000
It was on it.

426
00:28:11,000 --> 00:28:12,000
It was a consent item.

427
00:28:12,000 --> 00:28:14,000
And sometimes consent items just kind of fly by.

428
00:28:14,000 --> 00:28:16,000
But so I was looking at that.

429
00:28:16,000 --> 00:28:19,000
But on consent.

430
00:28:19,000 --> 00:28:28,000
We had items six C and six D because we recognize and re-appoint some commissioners on our boards and commissions that we do.

431
00:28:28,000 --> 00:28:33,000
And Ashley holiday was re-appointed the civil service commission.

432
00:28:33,000 --> 00:28:36,000
We were a Corrello Titus and Garrett Murphy.

433
00:28:36,000 --> 00:28:37,000
Garrett, sir.

434
00:28:37,000 --> 00:28:42,000
I saw Garrett earlier in Julie Eppitch to the public hard steering committee.

435
00:28:42,000 --> 00:28:44,000
And I think it's Julie here.

436
00:28:44,000 --> 00:28:45,000
Or just here.

437
00:28:45,000 --> 00:28:46,000
Julie's back there.

438
00:28:46,000 --> 00:28:48,000
Well, thank you so much for coming with us.

439
00:28:48,000 --> 00:28:52,000
And thank you for your willingness to serve on these boards and commissions.

440
00:28:52,000 --> 00:29:00,000
We, we desperately need, you know, the input and the value added that it brings to what council has to ultimately decide on.

441
00:29:00,000 --> 00:29:02,000
So thank you so much.

442
00:29:02,000 --> 00:29:03,000
Enjoy.

443
00:29:03,000 --> 00:29:05,000
I see Garrett around town all the time.

444
00:29:05,000 --> 00:29:06,000
You'd be great addition.

445
00:29:06,000 --> 00:29:08,000
And Julie, thank you so much.

446
00:29:08,000 --> 00:29:09,000
But welcome back.

447
00:29:09,000 --> 00:29:11,000
Thank you for your continued service.

448
00:29:11,000 --> 00:29:13,000
And we do definitely appreciate what you do.

449
00:29:13,000 --> 00:29:14,000
So I'm sorry.

450
00:29:14,000 --> 00:29:18,000
I missed that on the consent item.

451
00:29:18,000 --> 00:29:19,000
The clerk keeps me straight.

452
00:29:19,000 --> 00:29:21,000
The clerk runs this place.

453
00:29:21,000 --> 00:29:31,000
If she does.

454
00:29:31,000 --> 00:29:35,000
Now we are like consent hearings.

455
00:29:35,000 --> 00:29:40,000
Consent hearings are considered routine and may be approved by a single vote of the council.

456
00:29:40,000 --> 00:29:48,000
However, members of the public or council may request that a consent hearing item be pulled for discussion.

457
00:29:48,000 --> 00:29:52,000
We have six consuring consent hearing items.

458
00:29:52,000 --> 00:29:55,000
Item six eight eight eight to eight F.

459
00:29:55,000 --> 00:30:00,000
Have you received any request to pull any in the consent hearing item.

460
00:30:00,000 --> 00:30:14,000
I have none. Anybody in the audience looking at consent hearings? Council.

461
00:30:14,000 --> 00:30:15,000
I'll make the motion.

462
00:30:15,000 --> 00:30:20,000
I'll make the motion to approve items 8A through 8F on the consent hearings.

463
00:30:20,000 --> 00:30:22,000
I'll make the motion by Council Member Painer.

464
00:30:22,000 --> 00:30:23,000
Second.

465
00:30:23,000 --> 00:30:26,000
Second by Council Member Lurus Olen, favor, signify by saying aye.

466
00:30:26,000 --> 00:30:28,000
Aye. Aye. Any opposed?

467
00:30:28,000 --> 00:30:30,000
Item carries unanimously. Thank you.

468
00:30:30,000 --> 00:30:32,000
Now, this is a public hearing. Not a consent hearing.

469
00:30:32,000 --> 00:30:34,000
And I'm nine on our agenda.

470
00:30:34,000 --> 00:30:40,000
This is our urban water management plan and water shortage contingency plan.

471
00:30:40,000 --> 00:30:42,000
So this is an action item.

472
00:30:42,000 --> 00:30:45,000
We'll be asked to adopt two resolutions on this item.

473
00:30:45,000 --> 00:30:53,000
So first, we will hear reports that he staff, which may include responses, clarifying questions from members of the council.

474
00:30:53,000 --> 00:30:58,000
Next members of the council will be asked to disclose any information learned outside of the hearing.

475
00:30:58,000 --> 00:31:04,000
Members, the public will be offered to provide any input and we will move on from there.

476
00:31:04,000 --> 00:31:06,000
Thank you, Mayor. Good afternoon.

477
00:31:06,000 --> 00:31:12,000
Mayor and council, Pat Costello, water resources, utilities department.

478
00:31:12,000 --> 00:31:19,000
And as the nation approaches, it's 250 year semi-quincentennial.

479
00:31:19,000 --> 00:31:21,000
I have something much less dramatic.

480
00:31:21,000 --> 00:31:24,000
It's a quincennial. I looked it up.

481
00:31:24,000 --> 00:31:27,000
It means every five years, a five year anniversary.

482
00:31:27,000 --> 00:31:32,000
That is how often we have to update by law or urban water management plan.

483
00:31:32,000 --> 00:31:38,000
And the water shortage contingency plan, a drought plan, is part of the appendix of that.

484
00:31:38,000 --> 00:31:42,000
So it's kind of a regulatory checklist.

485
00:31:42,000 --> 00:31:43,000
You know, checkbox.

486
00:31:43,000 --> 00:31:49,000
But it's actually a wise idea for long-term planning for reliability for supply.

487
00:31:49,000 --> 00:31:53,000
And of course, the prepare for droughts in the water shortage contingency plan.

488
00:31:53,000 --> 00:32:06,000
We've had assistance from West Yost who helped us also with don't confuse this with the other 30 year master plan capital improvement plan.

489
00:32:06,000 --> 00:32:12,000
That is being displayed at the same time as this, but they are two distinct documents.

490
00:32:12,000 --> 00:32:16,000
This document has been available since May 28th.

491
00:32:16,000 --> 00:32:23,000
We did publicize this hearing and the documents in legal public ads and newspapers.

492
00:32:23,000 --> 00:32:30,000
The city news letter, the website, public events, KVYN radio, et cetera.

493
00:32:30,000 --> 00:32:35,000
So we are glad to hold this today.

494
00:32:35,000 --> 00:32:38,000
All right. What is an urban water management plan?

495
00:32:38,000 --> 00:32:41,000
So first of all, it's the law. It's required.

496
00:32:41,000 --> 00:32:46,000
It's a long-range planning document. It requires us to look out a quarter century from now.

497
00:32:46,000 --> 00:32:49,000
So we're looking out to the year 2050.

498
00:32:49,000 --> 00:32:51,000
It's a planning tool.

499
00:32:51,000 --> 00:32:57,000
You're looking whether you have adequate supplies to meet your demands for this long-term time period.

500
00:32:57,000 --> 00:33:09,000
And it also is used for large development projects that require a sequa and have water demand equivalent to that like 500 dwellings.

501
00:33:09,000 --> 00:33:21,000
I don't know that we have any looming like that, but those two laws SB-610 and SB-221 refer to the U-WIMP as the key document to look at.

502
00:33:21,000 --> 00:33:27,000
So this is due to the California Department of Water Resources by July 1st.

503
00:33:27,000 --> 00:33:31,000
So that's why we're here on June 16th.

504
00:33:31,000 --> 00:33:38,000
Why is it required? Again, it's the law, the urban water management planning act back in 83.

505
00:33:38,000 --> 00:33:44,000
To codify this requirement, it applies to legal definition urban water suppliers.

506
00:33:44,000 --> 00:33:51,000
That means serving more than 3,000 connections or 3,000 acre feet per year of water.

507
00:33:51,000 --> 00:33:59,000
And in 2025, the city served more than 25,000 connections to deliver more than 12,000 acre feet.

508
00:33:59,000 --> 00:34:02,000
So obviously we are required to do this.

509
00:34:02,000 --> 00:34:08,000
And the only other entity in the county is American Canyon who's also required to submit this.

510
00:34:08,000 --> 00:34:18,000
It's again, every five years, and as a carrot, it is required so that you remain eligible for state grants and loans,

511
00:34:18,000 --> 00:34:23,000
which are very important to us in the water division.

512
00:34:23,000 --> 00:34:30,000
For last, one that we did was about four and a half years ago in late 2021.

513
00:34:30,000 --> 00:34:34,000
All right, so the key components here is the meat of the document.

514
00:34:34,000 --> 00:34:36,000
It's pretty digestible.

515
00:34:36,000 --> 00:34:39,000
The bulk of it is the supplemental appendices.

516
00:34:39,000 --> 00:34:42,000
But there's ten chapters.

517
00:34:42,000 --> 00:34:45,000
There's an executive summary system description.

518
00:34:45,000 --> 00:34:49,000
But what I'll focus on is chapters four through seven data.

519
00:34:49,000 --> 00:34:54,000
That's demand supply, conservation target.

520
00:34:54,000 --> 00:35:00,000
The water shortage contingency plan, again, is appendix J.

521
00:35:00,000 --> 00:35:06,000
Chapter nine is important because it does do a comprehensive overview of our water conservation programs.

522
00:35:06,000 --> 00:35:12,000
So it's pretty extensive, and it looks forward to the future.

523
00:35:12,000 --> 00:35:14,000
Okay.

524
00:35:14,000 --> 00:35:18,000
I'll start with something that's an old law.

525
00:35:18,000 --> 00:35:23,000
SB X7-7 known as 20% by 2020.

526
00:35:23,000 --> 00:35:32,000
This was requiring agencies like ours to reduce per capita water use by 20% by the year 2020.

527
00:35:32,000 --> 00:35:37,000
Compared to a 10 year baseline from 1995 to 2004.

528
00:35:37,000 --> 00:35:46,000
So what happened is the only year of the past 11, where we didn't meet our target for this, was the year 2020.

529
00:35:46,000 --> 00:35:48,000
When it was being assessed.

530
00:35:48,000 --> 00:35:51,000
The pandemic people at home, it was very hot.

531
00:35:51,000 --> 00:35:54,000
It was the kick off to a three year drought.

532
00:35:54,000 --> 00:35:57,000
So there were a number of reasons, but we slightly exceeded it.

533
00:35:57,000 --> 00:36:03,000
So, and that target is 132 gallons per capita per day max.

534
00:36:03,000 --> 00:36:08,000
We easily met it in 2025 at 119.

535
00:36:08,000 --> 00:36:13,000
So we're all good now with that law eligible for grants.

536
00:36:13,000 --> 00:36:19,000
But I want to stay on this per capita water use trends because this really I like to show people this.

537
00:36:19,000 --> 00:36:21,000
It tells the water.

538
00:36:21,000 --> 00:36:24,000
Water efficiency story of the last quarter century.

539
00:36:24,000 --> 00:36:27,000
So the turn of the millennium.

540
00:36:27,000 --> 00:36:32,000
We were averaging about 170 gallons per capita per day city of Napa.

541
00:36:32,000 --> 00:36:35,000
And this is this is not just water used at home.

542
00:36:35,000 --> 00:36:39,000
This is the entire systems used divided by the population.

543
00:36:40,000 --> 00:36:44,000
Okay, again, it was 119 last year.

544
00:36:44,000 --> 00:36:47,000
So dramatic drop off.

545
00:36:47,000 --> 00:36:50,000
We don't see the big rebound after droughts.

546
00:36:50,000 --> 00:36:53,000
You see hot periods and then a drought measures.

547
00:36:53,000 --> 00:36:58,000
But you don't see dramatic recovery to the previous historical average.

548
00:36:58,000 --> 00:36:59,000
So this is a trend.

549
00:36:59,000 --> 00:37:04,000
It's not just happening to us, but it's happening to many agencies.

550
00:37:04,000 --> 00:37:11,000
And we have a very engaged public as exemplified by our as you're aware.

551
00:37:11,000 --> 00:37:15,000
We recently won the National Mayor's Challenge for water conservation.

552
00:37:15,000 --> 00:37:20,000
Mayor Sedgley defeats mayor tackle one zero in those victories.

553
00:37:20,000 --> 00:37:24,000
But she was very enthusiastic when we started entering that.

554
00:37:24,000 --> 00:37:27,000
But that's all on the public making pledges.

555
00:37:27,000 --> 00:37:32,000
But you can see we have a history of greater water use efficiency.

556
00:37:32,000 --> 00:37:38,000
And just to cherry pick some data to illustrate what this kind of means.

557
00:37:38,000 --> 00:37:40,000
2000.

558
00:37:40,000 --> 00:37:44,000
The flood project was just in early stages.

559
00:37:44,000 --> 00:37:51,000
But since then we've had major commercial development housing development increase population.

560
00:37:51,000 --> 00:37:54,000
25 years later.

561
00:37:54,000 --> 00:37:56,000
2000 to 2025.

562
00:37:56,000 --> 00:37:57,000
The total demand.

563
00:37:57,000 --> 00:37:58,000
Not per capita.

564
00:37:58,000 --> 00:38:03,000
The total demand from our city customers was down 25%.

565
00:38:03,000 --> 00:38:10,000
So despite all that growth, we actually are what are used went down.

566
00:38:10,000 --> 00:38:11,000
Okay.

567
00:38:11,000 --> 00:38:13,000
Now chapter four deals with demands.

568
00:38:13,000 --> 00:38:15,000
And it has historical.

569
00:38:15,000 --> 00:38:19,000
And these are just single years from the previous urban water management plans.

570
00:38:19,000 --> 00:38:21,000
2010 to 2025.

571
00:38:21,000 --> 00:38:26,000
But we've had a history of over projecting teacher demand.

572
00:38:26,000 --> 00:38:30,000
The 2005 urban water management plan.

573
00:38:30,000 --> 00:38:35,000
Projected that in 2025 demand would be on 19,000 acre feet.

574
00:38:35,000 --> 00:38:38,000
But it's really like 12,000 acre feet.

575
00:38:38,000 --> 00:38:41,000
So we've 2010 through now.

576
00:38:41,000 --> 00:38:46,000
We've really gotten more realistic on what projected demand will be.

577
00:38:46,000 --> 00:38:54,000
And we are projecting based on the development and population in the city's general plan.

578
00:38:54,000 --> 00:39:02,000
And we are also factoring increased water use efficiency driven by some state laws and just general behavioral trends we're seeing.

579
00:39:02,000 --> 00:39:08,000
So that's demand.

580
00:39:08,000 --> 00:39:10,000
Now that's potable water.

581
00:39:10,000 --> 00:39:12,000
That's drinking water that the city supplies.

582
00:39:12,000 --> 00:39:20,000
We are also asked in this document to include data about recycled water served within our service area.

583
00:39:20,000 --> 00:39:26,000
In other words, customers would otherwise be using our drinking water for their irrigation.

584
00:39:26,000 --> 00:39:30,000
Napasan engineering staff, I think some of them are here.

585
00:39:30,000 --> 00:39:35,000
We're very helpful in reviewing that part of the chapter six.

586
00:39:36,000 --> 00:39:41,000
And we've gotten over 500 acre feet a year.

587
00:39:41,000 --> 00:39:44,000
But I did dip the in 2025.

588
00:39:44,000 --> 00:39:50,000
But we do see if the plan projects come to fruition and the full extent of the use within the city service area.

589
00:39:50,000 --> 00:39:53,000
We could get six to 800 acre feet.

590
00:39:53,000 --> 00:39:58,000
And this helps us meet our water use targets under some water conservation laws.

591
00:39:58,000 --> 00:40:02,000
Because and it reduces per capita drinking water demand obviously.

592
00:40:02,000 --> 00:40:07,000
Because that 800 acre feet would otherwise be drinking water use.

593
00:40:07,000 --> 00:40:11,000
Oops.

594
00:40:11,000 --> 00:40:12,000
Yes.

595
00:40:12,000 --> 00:40:13,000
Supplies.

596
00:40:13,000 --> 00:40:16,000
Chapter six is supplies.

597
00:40:16,000 --> 00:40:20,000
We, as you're where we have two local service water supplies,

598
00:40:20,000 --> 00:40:22,000
Lake Tennessee and Millican Reservoir.

599
00:40:22,000 --> 00:40:26,000
And we have imported water from the state water project.

600
00:40:26,000 --> 00:40:34,000
So I highlight the, the main source from the state water projects are annual table A allocation,

601
00:40:34,000 --> 00:40:40,000
depending on that year's hydrology and the state reservoir capacities.

602
00:40:40,000 --> 00:40:44,000
But the other types, we typically use several of these.

603
00:40:44,000 --> 00:40:49,000
Like we typically have carry over water available unused from previous years.

604
00:40:49,000 --> 00:40:53,000
Article 21 when the Delta's in excess in the first half of the year.

605
00:40:53,000 --> 00:40:57,000
But I highlight the ones in red that I'm not accounting.

606
00:40:57,000 --> 00:41:03,000
As part of our supplies in in this stress test as we look for reliability in the future.

607
00:41:03,000 --> 00:41:06,000
The only one I'm counting that's not table A is advanced table A.

608
00:41:06,000 --> 00:41:13,000
And that's from our settlement area of origin legislation settlement 2013.

609
00:41:13,000 --> 00:41:20,000
We have basically a credit account that we can use up to our total table A allocation.

610
00:41:20,000 --> 00:41:24,000
And it doesn't even have to be paid back if Lake Orville spills.

611
00:41:24,000 --> 00:41:30,000
So we did actually use that in 2021 the most significant dry year in recent times.

612
00:41:30,000 --> 00:41:34,000
I will also point out when I project the supplies.

613
00:41:34,000 --> 00:41:37,000
Beyond 2043.

614
00:41:37,000 --> 00:41:48,000
We are incorporating climate change impacts fairly significant based on DWR's extensive analysis in their state water project capability report.

615
00:41:48,000 --> 00:41:52,000
That was public. Well the draft was just six months ago.

616
00:41:52,000 --> 00:41:56,000
So that is significant factors.

617
00:41:56,000 --> 00:42:02,000
We look at 2045 and 2050 is some of those impacts on supply may come into play.

618
00:42:02,000 --> 00:42:07,000
Okay, so the real meat of this document is looking at supply versus demand.

619
00:42:07,000 --> 00:42:14,000
Under normal average years, single dry years, extreme drought year, and a multiple dry year sequence.

620
00:42:14,000 --> 00:42:19,000
Normal years, you see supply and demand, not a problem.

621
00:42:19,000 --> 00:42:28,000
Our reasonably available volumes in normal years greatly exceed the projected demand section.

622
00:42:28,000 --> 00:42:35,000
A single dry year, examples of the 2021, yes.

623
00:42:35,000 --> 00:42:41,000
I guess there was the big one in the 70s, 76 or 77.

624
00:42:41,000 --> 00:42:50,000
There was 1924, I think it was another one, but we chose to base ours on 2021 and had the most significant impact on the city.

625
00:42:50,000 --> 00:42:59,000
But we do show no shortfalls under this stress test for a single dry year going forward.

626
00:42:59,000 --> 00:43:02,000
Okay, in contrast for multiple dry years.

627
00:43:02,000 --> 00:43:10,000
Now these projections are based on the conditions that occurred in 1987 to 92.

628
00:43:10,000 --> 00:43:15,000
And that was the most significant multi year drought affected the city of Napa.

629
00:43:15,000 --> 00:43:22,000
And so we base our local and the state water project supply scenarios on that sequence.

630
00:43:22,000 --> 00:43:30,000
And we do show, but only after the climate change impacts kick in in the later years.

631
00:43:30,000 --> 00:43:36,000
We show shortfalls in years two through five of a multiple dry year sequence.

632
00:43:36,000 --> 00:43:39,000
Shortfalls of 16 to 18%.

633
00:43:40,000 --> 00:43:48,000
Okay. In summary, this is fairly good news for us in terms of reliability.

634
00:43:48,000 --> 00:43:55,000
Again, we can be projected water demands during normal and single dry water years through 2050.

635
00:43:55,000 --> 00:43:57,000
So looking at a quarter century.

636
00:43:57,000 --> 00:44:03,000
In the multiple dry year scenario, though five year droughts starting in those later years.

637
00:44:03,000 --> 00:44:09,000
A do result in shortfalls under this stress test. Again, it's it's in a normal conditions.

638
00:44:09,000 --> 00:44:13,000
We probably start with some carry over water when mitigates some of this.

639
00:44:13,000 --> 00:44:19,000
But given these numbers, the shortfalls can be addressed via stage two.

640
00:44:19,000 --> 00:44:26,000
Or perhaps the beginning of stage three of our drought plan, our water shortage contingency plan.

641
00:44:26,000 --> 00:44:32,000
And or purchasing dry year water from other entities which DWR has facilitated in a much better way.

642
00:44:32,000 --> 00:44:36,000
And recent recent years.

643
00:44:36,000 --> 00:44:43,000
So the other document. It is our plan to prepare and respond to water shortages.

644
00:44:43,000 --> 00:44:46,000
It's called the water shortage contingency plan.

645
00:44:46,000 --> 00:44:50,000
Or drought plan as almost people would recognize it.

646
00:44:50,000 --> 00:44:53,000
It's an appendix to this document.

647
00:44:53,000 --> 00:44:56,000
But it's independent of it.

648
00:44:56,000 --> 00:45:00,000
And in the future 2030 OEMP wouldn't.

649
00:45:00,000 --> 00:45:08,000
And that's certainly half to adopt a water shortage contingency plan update with it if there were no changes to our water shortage.

650
00:45:08,000 --> 00:45:19,000
But it is adopted here by separate resolution, because we have informed to the state had six standard water shortage stages.

651
00:45:19,000 --> 00:45:28,000
Another thing was last council meeting, you had a chance to just look at and we filed the annual water supply and demand assessment.

652
00:45:28,000 --> 00:45:33,000
And that looks ahead one year if it's dry and we showed we're in good shape.

653
00:45:33,000 --> 00:45:37,000
And I'm not even counting the super El Niño that has been predicted.

654
00:45:37,000 --> 00:45:43,000
You'd basically sit on a dry year and we still look good for the next fiscal year.

655
00:45:43,000 --> 00:45:50,000
The other thing we've done is the water shortage contingency plan and you don't have to read all this, but it's six stages.

656
00:45:50,000 --> 00:45:59,000
And we have matched up with napa municipal code 13.10 I believe.

657
00:45:59,000 --> 00:46:09,000
And we updated that in 2023 from lessons learned during the 2021 to 23 drought.

658
00:46:09,000 --> 00:46:12,000
And this matches up with that, everything's in sync.

659
00:46:12,000 --> 00:46:20,000
And the six stages, the six was added years ago by the state for shortages more than 50%.

660
00:46:20,000 --> 00:46:22,000
So extreme measures.

661
00:46:22,000 --> 00:46:26,000
In addition to these response actions in terms of demand reduction.

662
00:46:26,000 --> 00:46:33,000
Obviously a dry year purchases in the state exchange would be also looked at.

663
00:46:33,000 --> 00:46:41,000
So that's these base basis of the hearing, these two documents.

664
00:46:41,000 --> 00:46:44,000
And so I will close.

665
00:46:44,000 --> 00:46:51,000
And I should mention not that I want you to direct questions to him because he's only been here three weeks.

666
00:46:51,000 --> 00:46:59,000
But Adam Nelke has brought his experience from the city of Petaluma and he's learning our system very quickly.

667
00:46:59,000 --> 00:47:05,000
And hopefully these master plan that I referenced and this earn water miles plan are helping him.

668
00:47:05,000 --> 00:47:08,000
Learn the system, but we're happy to have him aboard.

669
00:47:08,000 --> 00:47:13,000
And but any questions and then the actions would be.

670
00:47:13,000 --> 00:47:18,000
The resolutions the independent two resolutions one for each document.

671
00:47:18,000 --> 00:47:20,000
Thanks Pat and we were introduced last reading.

672
00:47:20,000 --> 00:47:23,000
I think so welcome back again.

673
00:47:24,000 --> 00:47:31,000
Well great. I don't know if there's clarifying questions some council but any public comment on the item before we have that.

674
00:47:31,000 --> 00:47:33,000
Back forward discussion.

675
00:47:33,000 --> 00:47:38,000
Waters always a great interest to all of us up here on council.

676
00:47:38,000 --> 00:47:43,000
We're very very pleased for the most good news that we always receive.

677
00:47:43,000 --> 00:47:48,000
That those that demand and what we've done in the last, you know, couple decades and bringing water.

678
00:47:48,000 --> 00:47:57,000
I think it's public education and outreach that we've done people removing some grass and going to more efficient.

679
00:47:57,000 --> 00:48:02,000
Fish and watering systems for irrigation because so much of our portable water goes to irrigation.

680
00:48:02,000 --> 00:48:05,000
And it's really not necessary to do that.

681
00:48:05,000 --> 00:48:07,000
So I purchased one of those.

682
00:48:07,000 --> 00:48:12,000
Flume devices for on my water meter and it's it's phenomenal.

683
00:48:12,000 --> 00:48:18,000
It tells you if you know every toilet flush will show up on the flume is water used.

684
00:48:18,000 --> 00:48:20,000
It's that precise.

685
00:48:20,000 --> 00:48:25,000
And so if you have the ideas if you have some water running a leak and you're not aware of it.

686
00:48:25,000 --> 00:48:29,000
That that that flume will notify you by phone that you better look for a problem.

687
00:48:29,000 --> 00:48:32,000
So all those that technology's come a long way.

688
00:48:32,000 --> 00:48:35,000
Outreach education I think the community's done a great job.

689
00:48:35,000 --> 00:48:41,000
The days of leaving the open and the garden hose on the driveway as your wash your car are over.

690
00:48:41,000 --> 00:48:46,000
I think everybody understands those concepts but outstanding news.

691
00:48:46,000 --> 00:48:49,000
Good report and going to councilman paint.

692
00:48:49,000 --> 00:48:50,000
Okay.

693
00:48:50,000 --> 00:48:51,000
Yeah, I couldn't agree more.

694
00:48:51,000 --> 00:48:59,000
In fact, our plume meter went off this week because I didn't realize we had a toilet that was broken and it just, you know, it's on your phone.

695
00:48:59,000 --> 00:49:06,000
It's immediate and those kinds of things if it goes missed for days and a row can can be pretty significant.

696
00:49:06,000 --> 00:49:10,000
I just have one question on projected water supplies.

697
00:49:10,000 --> 00:49:20,000
And this is, you know, maybe a crystal ball question, but, you know, many of us have followed the sites reservoir construction, which apparently got their final.

698
00:49:20,000 --> 00:49:28,000
At least approvals at least as far as I understood conditional approvals in March of twenty twenty six March of this year.

699
00:49:28,000 --> 00:49:34,000
It's a multi year construction effort probably not finished until at least twenty thirty three.

700
00:49:34,000 --> 00:49:40,000
But I'm wondering if as we look at projected water supplies and I know we're not on the list right now.

701
00:49:40,000 --> 00:49:44,000
I believe American Canyon is the only Napa city that's on that list.

702
00:49:44,000 --> 00:49:55,000
Is that something that we could consider under emergency circumstances or projected allocations or we, is that we won't get on that list.

703
00:49:55,000 --> 00:49:57,000
We didn't quantify those.

704
00:49:57,000 --> 00:50:00,000
There is a section in chapter seven.

705
00:50:00,000 --> 00:50:02,000
I think or six.

706
00:50:02,000 --> 00:50:14,000
About alternate supplies that are conceptually described, but we don't have their numbers in here because sites where two back on the list.

707
00:50:14,000 --> 00:50:18,000
It's not likely that enough will drop out that we get a slot.

708
00:50:18,000 --> 00:50:26,000
But if American Canyon got their four thousand acre feet, that's more than they need and so there's exchanges locally.

709
00:50:26,000 --> 00:50:32,000
So there's a section that discusses that and other related issues that affects supply.

710
00:50:32,000 --> 00:50:39,000
We looked at advanced purification a few years ago out of the Napa Valley, Dr.

711
00:50:39,000 --> 00:50:43,000
Tinsy plan, but found that cost prohibitive basically right now.

712
00:50:43,000 --> 00:50:48,000
So they're discussed, but we didn't have enough to quantify them.

713
00:50:48,000 --> 00:50:53,000
So this, yeah, that's another thing that could help in twenty forty five and fifty.

714
00:50:54,000 --> 00:50:57,000
Yeah, a lot of things are going to happen between now and then.

715
00:50:57,000 --> 00:51:01,000
So that shortage I had in twenty forty five and fifty multiple dry year.

716
00:51:01,000 --> 00:51:05,000
I mean that could partly be resolved by some of these other things we have not quantified right now.

717
00:51:05,000 --> 00:51:10,000
No, and I'm glad it's just at least mentioned in the report because like you said, it's a long term thing.

718
00:51:10,000 --> 00:51:22,000
And I'm sure it's future councils that would consider it, but the sites reservoir is probably the largest reservoir that we've seen constructed in the state of California for at least 50 years.

719
00:51:22,000 --> 00:51:34,000
So it's a big deal for water supply and we should at least just remain educated about what some options might be for the people otherwise, you know, well done and I really enjoy.

720
00:51:34,000 --> 00:51:47,000
I mean, it's amazing to see the graph of the per capita use and how, you know, everybody, you know, most everybody anyways in the city has really done an amazing job to reduce water demand.

721
00:51:47,000 --> 00:51:49,000
Thank you.

722
00:51:49,000 --> 00:51:56,000
And before I take comments from Heltsman, Rolloro, it's like better get back on this is a public hearing that city clerk will start throwing things at me.

723
00:51:56,000 --> 00:52:04,000
If I get back, so under a public hearing we need to disclose any information that we may have learned outside this public meeting.

724
00:52:04,000 --> 00:52:05,000
No disclosures.

725
00:52:05,000 --> 00:52:06,000
No disclosures.

726
00:52:06,000 --> 00:52:07,000
No disclosures.

727
00:52:07,000 --> 00:52:08,000
No disclosures.

728
00:52:08,000 --> 00:52:09,000
Very much.

729
00:52:09,000 --> 00:52:18,000
And so at this time I know I asked for public comment earlier, but at this time it is open public testimony on this report on this item, if there's anybody here that after hearing a little bit of comments.

730
00:52:18,000 --> 00:52:25,280
a little bit of comment which is to speak on it. It is a public hearing so I'll move to

731
00:52:25,280 --> 00:52:30,640
a look for a motion to close public hearing. So I moved, so moved by Vice Mayor Dean

732
00:52:30,640 --> 00:52:41,120
Atalee. Thank you. So now we'll go to Council Member Leros. Nothing big I just wanted to echo

733
00:52:41,120 --> 00:52:45,680
the thanks for all the work that goes into this. I know it's a tremendous amount of work and also echo

734
00:52:45,680 --> 00:52:51,360
the importance of the flu monitor. We had that broken toilet about a month ago and we weren't home

735
00:52:51,360 --> 00:52:57,120
and didn't have a flu monitor and we got a really high bill in the mail and actually Josh

736
00:52:57,120 --> 00:53:01,680
Stokes came out and he took a look. He recommended the flu monitor. We tried to install it. He

737
00:53:01,680 --> 00:53:05,280
came and fixed it for us and made sure that it was set up correctly. It was really great.

738
00:53:05,280 --> 00:53:09,040
He was an expert at the flu now. He was really great and I just want to make sure that people know

739
00:53:09,040 --> 00:53:14,560
that that resource is out there. He also gave us a watering guide to help adjust our sprinkler timing which was

740
00:53:14,560 --> 00:53:18,560
really helpful. I would love to see that on our website if we could do that someday because that

741
00:53:18,560 --> 00:53:24,000
was pretty cool. Well, the document, the PDF is on the website. Okay, great, perfect. So I just want to say

742
00:53:24,000 --> 00:53:31,200
he was really helpful and I hope people know to get a flim. Thank you. Thanks. And Pat did mention

743
00:53:31,200 --> 00:53:36,000
our friends from Napa San, here I see Matt back there. I don't know who's with you but thanks for joining.

744
00:53:36,960 --> 00:53:42,240
We were closely with Napa Sanitation which you know is a special district. A lot of people sometimes

745
00:53:42,240 --> 00:53:47,360
look at the council in the mayor as you know that we had old Napa Sanitation but that is a special

746
00:53:47,360 --> 00:53:55,280
district. The agency that Councilor Milores and I also serve on the board but an amazingly well-run

747
00:53:55,280 --> 00:54:02,640
agency for sanitary sewer services and reclaimed water so we were closely and thank you for coming to

748
00:54:02,640 --> 00:54:11,200
listen to this and if you have any comment or any additions you're welcome to add or just enjoy our talk.

749
00:54:13,120 --> 00:54:18,320
All right, I don't see any more comments. Questions coming up so these this is a

750
00:54:18,320 --> 00:54:27,440
South African Foundation are two resolutions on the item. Well, unless I'm told otherwise I would make

751
00:54:28,000 --> 00:54:34,720
a motion to adopt both recommended actions number one and number two. The motion by Councilor

752
00:54:35,680 --> 00:54:42,080
Second by Councilmember and Vias Olenfavor and he opposed carries unanimously. Thank you Pat.

753
00:54:42,080 --> 00:54:50,800
Good news. You're quite welcome. Thank you. Thanks now to San. See this week, I think we have one this week.

754
00:54:56,240 --> 00:55:01,040
We are now at the time for a comments by city council city manager.

755
00:55:01,920 --> 00:55:08,400
No comments. Council, anybody on that?

756
00:55:10,000 --> 00:55:15,280
Councilmember. I have to go ahead and make a comment that we're not meeting again until after the

757
00:55:15,280 --> 00:55:21,440
fourth of July and I really want to encourage everybody to come and participate not only in the parade

758
00:55:21,440 --> 00:55:27,760
but the day-long events that are really family-friendly and then the evening drone show which is really

759
00:55:27,760 --> 00:55:35,200
going to be a huge celebration of our 250th anniversary. Yes, thank you for that and I heard on

760
00:55:35,600 --> 00:55:38,480
KVWN, it's the largest drone show in Oden, California.

761
00:55:40,800 --> 00:55:46,960
Pretty cool. All right, so we are now a city attorney to provide the required announcements for our

762
00:55:46,960 --> 00:55:52,080
closed session and we will return for an evening session following closed session. Thank you, Mayor.

763
00:55:52,080 --> 00:55:56,080
Suchly just wanted to announce for the public that Council will convene in close session to consider

764
00:55:56,080 --> 00:55:59,680
three items. The first is conference with Labor negotiators pursuant to government

765
00:55:59,680 --> 00:56:05,440
code section 54957.6. City designated representatives are Steve Potter, Liz Havkirk,

766
00:56:05,440 --> 00:56:10,560
and Jay Toro, Julie Lucido, Donna Lee, Zach Turin, and Jesse Ladd, the employee organization

767
00:56:10,560 --> 00:56:15,440
is the NAPA City Firefighters Association. The second item is conference with legal counsel existing

768
00:56:15,440 --> 00:56:22,080
litigation pursuant to government code section 54956.91. The matter is hexstrum properties LLC versus

769
00:56:22,080 --> 00:56:27,600
NAPA Sanitation District as well as the city of NAPA. And for this item, Council Member Loroce will

770
00:56:27,600 --> 00:56:33,120
be recused due to a conflict of interest involving the Blue Oak School. And the last item is conference

771
00:56:33,120 --> 00:56:38,480
with legal counsel initiation of litigation pursuant to government code section 54956.94 to one

772
00:56:38,480 --> 00:56:43,920
potential case. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you everyone and we'll see you in turns on the

773
00:56:43,920 --> 00:56:58,080
evening session. I'm just kidding. Well, we will begin. So, thank you so much. Welcome to the

774
00:56:59,120 --> 00:57:06,080
our June 16 meeting of the NAPA City Council or evening session. So, city clerk, do we have roll call

775
00:57:06,160 --> 00:57:12,480
please. Council members, painters? Here. Loroce? Here. Narvias? Here? Vice Mayor Dina Talley?

776
00:57:12,480 --> 00:57:17,200
Here? Mayor Sajli? Here? Are there any changes to the agenda or supplemental reports? There are no

777
00:57:17,200 --> 00:57:22,480
changes to the agenda mayor. We do have one supplemental report, which is for item 16A and it's the

778
00:57:22,480 --> 00:57:30,000
presentation from staff. Thank you so much. We usually start out our meetings with some presentations and

779
00:57:30,960 --> 00:57:37,760
this is a unique and special presentation tonight. Recognizing our Loroider community in NAPA. So,

780
00:57:37,760 --> 00:57:41,680
council, if you have your proclamations, could you please get them ready?

781
00:57:43,520 --> 00:57:49,520
City of NAPA proclamation? Recognizing the art, culture and community contributions of the Loroider

782
00:57:49,520 --> 00:57:55,520
community. Whereas, Loroiding is a distinctly California art form rooted in Mexican and American

783
00:57:55,520 --> 00:58:00,560
and Chicano communities expressing cultural pride, identity, and creativity through

784
00:58:00,560 --> 00:58:07,680
custom vehicles that showcase exceptional craftsmanship, design, and art history. And we're as Loroiding

785
00:58:07,680 --> 00:58:13,680
has become an internationally recognized cultural tradition that originated in California and continues

786
00:58:13,680 --> 00:58:19,760
to highlight the history, creativity, and contributions of Latino communities throughout the state and

787
00:58:19,760 --> 00:58:26,320
beyond. And we're as for generations, Loroider enthusiasts and car clubs have fostered mentorship,

788
00:58:26,320 --> 00:58:32,640
family connection, and community engagement by passing down skills in mechanics, bodywork, painting,

789
00:58:32,640 --> 00:58:38,240
restoration, and other trades while bringing people together through shared traditions and celebrations.

790
00:58:38,240 --> 00:58:43,840
And we're as Loroider enthusiasts, car clubs and community events in NAPA contribute to the city's

791
00:58:43,840 --> 00:58:49,040
cultural vibrancy by bringing people together through shared appreciation of automotive artistry,

792
00:58:49,040 --> 00:58:53,440
cultural heritage, and community pride. And we're as a state of California as

793
00:58:53,440 --> 00:59:00,320
working and recognize the cultural significance of Loroiding through assembly bill 436, which prohibits

794
00:59:00,320 --> 00:59:05,600
local bands increasing in a friend's importance of preserving this longstanding cultural tradition.

795
00:59:06,960 --> 00:59:12,000
Now, therefore, be resolved that I've got said we may have the city of NAPA along with the NAPA city council

796
00:59:12,000 --> 00:59:18,080
do here by recognizing and celebrate the art, cultural, and community contribution of the Loroider

797
00:59:18,960 --> 00:59:22,960
community, and encourage all residents to honor and appreciate the craftsmanship,

798
00:59:22,960 --> 00:59:29,360
the heritage, and the community spirit that low writing represents. They did June 16th, 2026.

799
00:59:30,160 --> 00:59:39,760
Very good for that one. And I think I believe with us tonight is Ricardo Navarro, is Ricardo here.

800
00:59:40,640 --> 00:59:46,320
So Ricardo, if you may be, come on up and first of all we'll get, and I'd like to get a picture of

801
00:59:46,720 --> 00:59:51,280
everybody that's here would be good to be the picture in front of the city of NAPA.

802
00:59:51,280 --> 00:59:57,680
And see a few words if you want. Please. Yeah, on behalf of the Loroider community, I want to thank

803
00:59:57,680 --> 01:00:00,960
the councilman, special thank you.

804
01:00:00,000 --> 01:00:06,000
Thanks a Bernie and sitting back and listening to you guys, the Councilman of the City of Napa, let's say what

805
01:00:06,000 --> 01:00:13,680
you guys just said, means a lot to us. As you guys stated on your your talking point, just

806
01:00:13,680 --> 01:00:17,360
stuff like that, you know, it's, it is it's a culture, it's something that we live, it's not

807
01:00:17,360 --> 01:00:23,600
something that we just pick up on the weekends and stuff like that. So, we really appreciate it and

808
01:00:23,600 --> 01:00:29,680
yeah, you know, the more already community is is vibrant, it's, we try to do our best, you know,

809
01:00:29,680 --> 01:00:34,960
we're part of a law order club and our main thing is to get back to the community. You know, most of us

810
01:00:34,960 --> 01:00:41,440
have have come from, you know, gangs and other types of stuff back and we were younger and this is our

811
01:00:41,440 --> 01:00:47,360
way of giving back to the community and not all of us, but most of us, you know, as Steve, I'll be here

812
01:00:47,360 --> 01:00:53,040
good, good, good, good acknowledge that, you know, he's, I can't, I have to say something about a Steve, you know,

813
01:00:53,040 --> 01:00:56,640
he really cared out for us when we were younger, cruising our cars, you know, back when we were 15,

814
01:00:56,640 --> 01:01:01,760
16, 17 years old, he was one of those cops that really cared about the community and out there and he, he went

815
01:01:01,760 --> 01:01:06,480
always the extra step, you know, so thank you, Steve, I'm behind a little already community, you know, we

816
01:01:06,480 --> 01:01:11,520
really appreciate that and thanks. And as you get to all I'm not a good speaker, so I'm going to be half of

817
01:01:11,520 --> 01:01:16,160
a little already community. We want to thank you guys, so thank you very much. You know, I got this one.

818
01:01:27,520 --> 01:01:33,280
And you love Emily, we ought to get the club in the picture and we want out there.

819
01:01:33,280 --> 01:01:43,120
Everybody, everybody, everybody, not just a club, everybody, everybody, everybody.

820
01:01:43,120 --> 01:01:45,120
Everybody.

821
01:01:52,480 --> 01:01:57,120
Come up closer over here, that's what we're going to, we'll be right behind you guys.

822
01:02:03,280 --> 01:02:24,800
There we go. Everybody, say 64, she ever let. Perfect, thank you guys.

823
01:02:25,360 --> 01:02:29,840
Thank you. That's all that 63 out there, so we've got to get a 63 out there.

824
01:02:35,840 --> 01:02:46,080
Steering you, like I would change the chain, yeah, thanks again, everyone. Thank you.

825
01:02:54,800 --> 01:02:59,920
And in fact, I'll remember putting your advice for bringing that forward to us.

826
01:02:59,920 --> 01:03:06,240
Good thing. All right, we, well, we jump right in. I'm excited. You're willing to stick around and listen

827
01:03:06,240 --> 01:03:12,400
to a little bit of that routine business, so we'll get through it. But if you're welcome and please stay.

828
01:03:13,120 --> 01:03:16,320
So our next item of business is, we have a public hearing.

829
01:03:19,760 --> 01:03:24,560
And so this is, well, first public comment, general public comment, sorry about that.

830
01:03:25,360 --> 01:03:30,000
So during a public comment portion of the meeting, the public is invited to address the

831
01:03:30,000 --> 01:03:34,640
city council on any item within the subject matter jurisdiction of the council. Please focus your

832
01:03:34,640 --> 01:03:40,240
comments on either past actions taken by the council or proposed future items to be taken by the council.

833
01:03:40,240 --> 01:03:45,680
However, if the subject of the public comment is not on the agenda, state law strictly limits the

834
01:03:45,680 --> 01:03:50,480
council's ability to respond at this meeting, city clerk, do you have any sit public baking card?

835
01:03:50,480 --> 01:03:54,640
I do not, but I did want to make sure we call for anybody on general public comment.

836
01:03:54,640 --> 01:03:58,960
In the audience, I know we do have a public hearing coming up, so you'll have if you're here for that.

837
01:04:00,720 --> 01:04:07,520
And we'll jump right into it. 16A, this is the 808 Capitola Drive tentative subdivision map.

838
01:04:08,080 --> 01:04:13,600
And so first we'll hear a report from staff, which may include some responses to clarifying questions,

839
01:04:13,600 --> 01:04:17,920
some members of council next members of council. Yes, to disclose any information

840
01:04:18,720 --> 01:04:23,200
that they've heard outside this public hearing. And then the project applicant

841
01:04:23,680 --> 01:04:28,480
will members of the public will be able to provide comment. So, off we go.

842
01:04:31,120 --> 01:04:36,000
Good evening, everybody. I'll be presenting on the proposed tentative subdivision map at 8 away

843
01:04:36,000 --> 01:04:42,080
capital a drive. We also have Derek Dibman here from the applicant team he served as the project's engineer.

844
01:04:44,240 --> 01:04:49,040
This is a request for a tentative subdivision map design review permit and use permit to divide

845
01:04:49,120 --> 01:04:54,880
in approximately one and a half acre parcel into eight single family lots and construct eight new single

846
01:04:54,880 --> 01:05:01,520
family homes. The project is located on the east side of capital a drive south of capital a

847
01:05:01,520 --> 01:05:10,960
court, just east of Silverado Trail. The property is undeveloped. The property frontages are undeveloped.

848
01:05:10,960 --> 01:05:16,640
The site contains sparse vegetation. There's an existing single family home in pool that will be

849
01:05:16,640 --> 01:05:21,120
demolished with the project. Currently, the parcel separates the northern and southern

850
01:05:21,120 --> 01:05:31,280
extensions of capital a drive. As you can see, the parcel is almost devoid of vegetation and you can

851
01:05:31,280 --> 01:05:38,800
see the existing northern and southern sections of capital a drive. The applicant proposes to divide

852
01:05:38,800 --> 01:05:44,080
the property into eight new single family lots. In addition, there'd be one new shared parcel containing

853
01:05:44,080 --> 01:05:50,720
the site's proposed by a retention infrastructure. The applicant also proposes to construct

854
01:05:50,720 --> 01:05:55,680
eight new single family homes. This includes related improvements like retaining walls in a new

855
01:05:55,680 --> 01:06:02,000
private street to serve the project. In addition, public improvements are proposed including connection

856
01:06:02,000 --> 01:06:07,600
of capital a drive and installation of curb gutter and sidewalk along the capital a drive from inch.

857
01:06:08,240 --> 01:06:14,240
The project requires approval of three entitlements, a tentative subdivision map to divide

858
01:06:14,240 --> 01:06:20,000
the property into eight parcels and one shared parcel, a design review permit for the design of

859
01:06:20,000 --> 01:06:24,800
the subdivisions layout for the design of the new single family homes and in addition for the design

860
01:06:24,800 --> 01:06:30,400
of retaining walls over three feet in height. In addition, a project requires approval of a use permit

861
01:06:31,120 --> 01:06:34,640
for two flaglots and for the applicant of small-lat development standards.

862
01:06:37,200 --> 01:06:45,040
This is the proposed subdivision layout. Six of the eight homes would be served by a new private street.

863
01:06:46,960 --> 01:06:53,200
The homes in lots one and eight would be served by a driveways off of capital a drive. At the western

864
01:06:53,200 --> 01:06:59,200
edge of the site, you can see the proposed by a retention facility in the capital a drive extension.

865
01:07:01,040 --> 01:07:07,760
The proposed homes would be the 23,108 square feet and 3,820 square feet.

866
01:07:07,760 --> 01:07:13,760
I'm contained three to four bedrooms and two to two and a half stories. The applicant proposes a mix

867
01:07:13,760 --> 01:07:19,440
of architectural styles each home and the project would be unique and these homes provide a high-level

868
01:07:19,440 --> 01:07:26,160
architectural detail special elements and unique features. Moving through to each of the front

869
01:07:26,160 --> 01:07:33,280
facades, you can see that of a variety of home styles proposed. The project's architect took a

870
01:07:33,280 --> 01:07:39,680
lot of inspiration from existing residential architecture in Napa. You can see a lot of existing home

871
01:07:39,680 --> 01:07:42,320
styles in the city reflected in the proposed designs.

872
01:07:43,200 --> 01:07:57,840
The proposed retain walls would mostly be located at the perimeter of the site as a result.

873
01:07:58,640 --> 01:08:04,160
The view of the walls would be screened by the homes themselves. However, where sections of wall would

874
01:08:04,160 --> 01:08:10,960
be visible, readily visible from the plug right away, staff required that they be clad in a decorative

875
01:08:10,960 --> 01:08:17,040
material like Stucco or some other material to coordinate with the dwelling on the lot.

876
01:08:17,920 --> 01:08:22,480
In addition, only small sections of wall over three feet and height. Most sections of the

877
01:08:22,480 --> 01:08:29,360
retaining walls are between one and three feet and height. The project would conform with the city's

878
01:08:29,360 --> 01:08:35,680
parking requirements, both on-site parking for each of the units and guests parking both

879
01:08:35,680 --> 01:08:39,360
along the new private street and within the extension of capital adrive.

880
01:08:42,640 --> 01:08:47,440
The capital adrive extension would be designed consistent with the city's street standards. It would

881
01:08:47,440 --> 01:08:54,480
provide regular standard for foot sidewalks, six foot planting strips, and regular with travel lanes.

882
01:08:57,040 --> 01:09:02,800
This connection is significant for the surrounding neighborhood. It allows ease of access to the

883
01:09:02,800 --> 01:09:09,920
larger area, including over to terrorists, to the east, north to fair view, and Cumesville,

884
01:09:10,720 --> 01:09:13,440
and to the south to Sarah Toga, and eventually Silverado Trail.

885
01:09:15,440 --> 01:09:22,160
Moving into analysis of the project, staff recommends that the council find that the project is exempt from

886
01:09:22,160 --> 01:09:31,760
sequa, pursuant to section 15332, the class 32 in full exemption. Staff has prepared an analysis,

887
01:09:31,760 --> 01:09:38,080
included as attachment 10 of the staff report, describing why the project is eligible for this exemption.

888
01:09:40,000 --> 01:09:45,040
In addition to approve the project, the commission must make the findings for a tentative subdivision

889
01:09:45,040 --> 01:09:52,000
map that the project is consistent with the general plan and any ethical excuse me. Specific plans

890
01:09:52,960 --> 01:09:58,320
and that the project is designed in a way that would provide for natural paths of heating and cooling

891
01:09:58,320 --> 01:10:03,280
opportunities. Council would also have to make the findings for a designer view permit,

892
01:10:03,280 --> 01:10:08,240
determining that the project is in accordance with the general plan and any applicable design policies

893
01:10:09,040 --> 01:10:14,480
that the project is consistent with ethical design review guidelines adopted by the city council,

894
01:10:15,120 --> 01:10:21,840
and that the project is in accordance with the zoning ordinance. In addition, the findings for

895
01:10:22,160 --> 01:10:27,680
a use permit must be made also that the project is in accordance with the general plan

896
01:10:28,320 --> 01:10:33,280
that the pros uses wouldn't be detrimental to property improvements in the vicinity

897
01:10:33,280 --> 01:10:38,800
that the project complies with each ethical provision of the zoning ordinance. In addition,

898
01:10:38,800 --> 01:10:44,240
the council must also find that the proposed flaglots are compatible with the surrounding neighborhood

899
01:10:44,240 --> 01:10:50,800
and the lot sizes proposed for the flaglots are proportionate with surrounding parcels.

900
01:10:52,560 --> 01:10:57,600
The project also requires that the findings of the interim zoning ordinance

901
01:10:58,400 --> 01:11:05,520
be made that the project is consistent with the napa 2040 general plan and the project is consistent

902
01:11:05,520 --> 01:11:12,240
with the ethical zoning district, which staff determined was in alliance with its existing zoning

903
01:11:12,240 --> 01:11:18,080
designation. With that staff recommends that the council approve a tentative subdivision map

904
01:11:18,080 --> 01:11:22,560
design review permit and use permit to divide the site into eight single family lots

905
01:11:23,360 --> 01:11:28,560
with eight detached single family homes, including associated improvements, including retain walls

906
01:11:28,560 --> 01:11:34,240
over 3 feet and height, and one parcel containing the sites shared by our retention facility,

907
01:11:34,240 --> 01:11:39,120
and a use permit for the creation of two flaglots in the application of small amount of elements standards

908
01:11:39,120 --> 01:11:44,560
at eight away capital of drive and determining that the project is exempt from sequa. Thank you.

909
01:11:45,440 --> 01:11:53,040
Thanks Paul. Thanks for going the extra mile being here today. We don't have a birthday cake for you,

910
01:11:53,040 --> 01:11:59,680
but I understand it's your birthday. Yes. Thank you. So sometimes things do fall on those birthdays,

911
01:11:59,680 --> 01:12:05,760
but. Yes. Happy birthday. We won't sing to you, but. Happy birthday. So thanks.

912
01:12:07,840 --> 01:12:12,160
So next at the public hearing, we go to disclosures and you disclosures starting with council

913
01:12:12,880 --> 01:12:18,000
and no disclosures. No disclosures. No disclosures. No disclosures. No disclosures. There we go.

914
01:12:18,800 --> 01:12:23,680
So the applicant's opening statement, if the applicant wishes to make an opening statement,

915
01:12:23,680 --> 01:12:30,880
please come out of it. Good evening. I am not the applicant. My name is Derek Dittman with RSA plus

916
01:12:30,880 --> 01:12:35,280
I'm the civil engineer in the project. The applicant himself could not be here in person tonight,

917
01:12:35,840 --> 01:12:41,520
but I am here to pass on his gratitude to city staff for their time and attention on this so far.

918
01:12:42,560 --> 01:12:46,640
And I don't have anything else to add as far as presentation. I think the staff report is very comprehensive,

919
01:12:46,640 --> 01:12:50,800
but I'm happy to answer any engineering related questions. May I have? Thank you, Derek.

920
01:12:50,800 --> 01:12:55,920
I'm sticking around when maybe you some. So at this time, I'm open public testimony for this

921
01:12:57,680 --> 01:13:02,560
tentative map subdivision application. Is there anybody in, if you have any speaker cards?

922
01:13:02,560 --> 01:13:07,040
I have no speaker cards here. Anybody in the audience with wish to address the council?

923
01:13:08,000 --> 01:13:11,200
Are you able to stay here? You can come out up to the podium.

924
01:13:15,680 --> 01:13:20,240
Thank you. Good evening, commissioners. You can speak right into the mic.

925
01:13:20,240 --> 01:13:27,440
Okay, so I have to read also. My name is Jens Holsterbro, and I'm speaking of behalf of some concerned

926
01:13:27,440 --> 01:13:34,240
residents of the capital drive neighborhood regarding the proposed 808 capital drive subdivision

927
01:13:35,120 --> 01:13:43,440
reference PL25, 0, 0, 0, 0, 3, 6, and I would, initially, respectfully request that my written comments

928
01:13:43,440 --> 01:13:47,440
and tonight's comments are being included in the administrative record.

929
01:13:49,680 --> 01:13:54,400
And I want to emphasize that our concerns are not simply opposition to development,

930
01:13:54,400 --> 01:14:00,640
additional housing. We recognize the communities of all. Our concerns is whether the city has

931
01:14:00,640 --> 01:14:06,640
completed the appropriate level of review before recommending approval of before recommending

932
01:14:06,640 --> 01:14:12,640
that city council determine this project qualifies for class 32 secret exception.

933
01:14:15,440 --> 01:14:21,200
The project is simply not a traditional homes. It includes a subdivision of this

934
01:14:21,200 --> 01:14:26,640
property significantly grading retaining walls over three high feet and the extension of

935
01:14:26,640 --> 01:14:33,600
capital of drive connecting two previous separated sections of roadway. That roadway connection

936
01:14:33,600 --> 01:14:40,640
permanently changes neighborhood circulation. The environmental memorandum concludes the traffic

937
01:14:40,640 --> 01:14:47,200
impacts are significant and that the roadway connection will reduce vehicle miles traveled.

938
01:14:47,920 --> 01:14:53,360
However, residents have not seen supporting traffic analysis demonstrating how traffic patterns

939
01:14:53,360 --> 01:14:59,920
caught true traffic vehicles speeds to distance safety and emergency action access will be

940
01:15:00,000 --> 01:15:07,000
So we're seeking a simple question. What studies of technical evidence supports these conclusions?

941
01:15:07,000 --> 01:15:18,000
The same concern applies to cumulative impacts. The city acknowledges the adjacent subdivision, immediately in north, like next to this project.

942
01:15:18,000 --> 01:15:25,000
However, we have not seen a meaningful analysis of the combined impact of both developments occurring together.

943
01:15:26,000 --> 01:15:34,000
The concern is not only the final number of homes after completion, the concerns is also the construction period residents will experience.

944
01:15:34,000 --> 01:15:46,000
If both projects move forward, neighbouring residents may face prolonged construction noise, grading activity, truck traffic, dust, vibration and disruption,

945
01:15:46,000 --> 01:15:51,000
many residents now work from home. Their homes are also their workplace.

946
01:15:51,000 --> 01:16:01,000
Months are potentially years of construction noise, can directly affect their abilities of participate in meetings, conduct business, and perform their jobs.

947
01:16:01,000 --> 01:16:08,000
We believe these impacts should be acknowledged, evaluated, and addressed to enforceable conditions before approval.

948
01:16:09,000 --> 01:16:16,000
This should include consideration of reasonable measures such as construction coordination between the two projects, advanced schedules,

949
01:16:16,000 --> 01:16:26,000
timing on overlapping high impact construction spaces, dust controls, requirements, protection of neighbouring personalities,

950
01:16:26,000 --> 01:16:34,000
and compensation mechanisms when residents experience direct cost caused by construction impacts.

951
01:16:34,000 --> 01:16:45,000
We also concerned that the environmental memorandum contains statements that appear unrelated to this residential project, including references to recreational

952
01:16:45,000 --> 01:16:55,000
efficiencies, retail uses, and a shopping center that raises questions about whether this document received a complete project specific review.

953
01:16:55,000 --> 01:17:05,000
Again, our request tonight is reasonable. Before recommending approval of class 32 exception, please require staff to identify

954
01:17:05,000 --> 01:17:13,000
the substantial evidence supporting the conclusions regarding traffic, cumulative impacts, construction impacts, noise and air quality.

955
01:17:13,000 --> 01:17:18,000
If this evidence exists, it should be made available.

956
01:17:19,000 --> 01:17:25,000
If it does not exist, then additional environmental review should occur before this project moves forward.

957
01:17:25,000 --> 01:17:28,000
Thank you. Thank you.

958
01:17:32,000 --> 01:17:37,000
Anyone else wishing to speak on the item?

959
01:17:37,000 --> 01:17:51,000
Good evening. My name is Amy Plyuz and I live in the capital of Drive area.

960
01:17:51,000 --> 01:17:54,000
We are thrilled to see new developments happening.

961
01:17:54,000 --> 01:17:59,000
We just had a few questions or concerns that hopefully can be addressed.

962
01:17:59,000 --> 01:18:10,000
So, number one on the drainage. We've had issues at 808, where it's caused drainage issues and flooding, which has and the adjacent property, which,

963
01:18:10,000 --> 01:18:20,000
forgive me, I don't know the exact address, but it has a pond in it, and the outflow to the pond has also been blocked with trees and foliage.

964
01:18:20,000 --> 01:18:27,000
Due to that, because of that, it's causing flooding in capital, a court, neighbourhoods to the residents on the lower.

965
01:18:27,000 --> 01:18:36,000
So, you know, I'm assuming that's going to be addressed, but number two, we have development right next to 808 property that's supposed to be approved and going through.

966
01:18:36,000 --> 01:18:39,000
And I know there was issues and concerns about drainage.

967
01:18:39,000 --> 01:18:54,000
And also off of Fairgeview Drive, they put in some auxiliary units, two stories high, with no need for off, off street parking, causing a flood of cars coming into our neighbourhood and traffic.

968
01:18:54,000 --> 01:19:07,000
So, that was the one thing was drainage. Number two, the issue we're concerned about, is capital, a drive was not supposed to open up until the five-way intersection was rectified and fixed.

969
01:19:07,000 --> 01:19:15,000
Because of the concerns for safety and getting traffic in and out, as well as emergency vehicles.

970
01:19:15,000 --> 01:19:18,000
I just said the five-way.

971
01:19:18,000 --> 01:19:21,000
You know, the five-way is so wrong. Very well.

972
01:19:21,000 --> 01:19:36,000
So, those were some of the concerns we had as neighbors to make sure we've experienced an influx of cars coming through during events and such when the property has been used for part parking and just the speed of cars coming in and out.

973
01:19:36,000 --> 01:19:42,000
So, it's the safety of the neighbourhood, making sure there's no flooding happening as well. So, thank you.

974
01:19:42,000 --> 01:19:46,000
And this lot, we used to be parking, just use the mic please.

975
01:19:46,000 --> 01:19:54,000
This lot with the development actually was parking for bottle rock, that the city graciously shut down this year because of traffic.

976
01:19:54,000 --> 01:20:05,000
So, can you imagine the traffic flow with this new road from the adjacent neighbourhood along with this and then the other three properties that are eventually going to be developed?

977
01:20:05,000 --> 01:20:10,000
So, it is changing the dynamic of our neighbourhood dramatically.

978
01:20:10,000 --> 01:20:20,000
And I think like Amy and my wife said, I don't think we would be against it if the five-way intersection was completed and allowed a better flow of traffic through the neighbourhood for safety reasons.

979
01:20:20,000 --> 01:20:23,000
Thank you. Thank you.

980
01:20:27,000 --> 01:20:31,000
Are there any other public speakers?

981
01:20:35,000 --> 01:20:43,000
Thank you very much for your comments. I'll bring it back to council for a motion to close the public hearing.

982
01:20:43,000 --> 01:20:44,000
Some moved.

983
01:20:44,000 --> 01:20:47,000
When the second by council member, Peter, all in favor?

984
01:20:47,000 --> 01:20:50,000
I, in the opposed.

985
01:20:50,000 --> 01:20:52,000
Thank you very much.

986
01:20:52,000 --> 01:20:59,000
I don't know if representative from the project wants to address any of the concerns that were brought up.

987
01:20:59,000 --> 01:21:07,000
I think we heard primarily what I think, what I've seen in past development as drainage is one of the primary concerns on any development of the project.

988
01:21:07,000 --> 01:21:12,000
Drainage has to be addressed. You can't run your water on to somebody else's.

989
01:21:12,000 --> 01:21:15,000
In the parking in the traffic issues, that was part of it.

990
01:21:15,000 --> 01:21:28,000
And the five-way in July, we're starting to see that the early work on the five-way, you know, the preliminary designs and those things I think we're going to start seeing the five-way move along pretty quickly in that process.

991
01:21:28,000 --> 01:21:34,000
But I'd never seen anything that specifically said Capitola would not be connected until the five-way was done.

992
01:21:34,000 --> 01:21:36,000
Maybe I missed that.

993
01:21:36,000 --> 01:21:37,000
The police go ahead.

994
01:21:37,000 --> 01:21:39,000
Sure.

995
01:21:39,000 --> 01:21:42,000
I'll speak on the drainage topic first.

996
01:21:42,000 --> 01:21:53,000
The project site is in a low point along Capitola Drive, both of the existing dead ends of Capitola Drive can slow downward and so it's in a valley right now.

997
01:21:53,000 --> 01:21:57,000
And that pond is the natural outlet for drainage.

998
01:21:57,000 --> 01:22:07,000
There's currently a culvert that crosses from the site underneath what will be the street right away into the pond.

999
01:22:07,000 --> 01:22:13,000
And that's really the only option, though, in the feasible option for drainage to continue to flow into that pond.

1000
01:22:13,000 --> 01:22:22,000
It from the pond to kind of overflows and continues toward subroad of trail, but the site development is providing detention.

1001
01:22:22,000 --> 01:22:33,000
So it holds back the runoff that comes off of the roofs and the road pavement so that the runoff is no greater than it was today.

1002
01:22:33,000 --> 01:22:35,000
It's based on the existing condition now.

1003
01:22:35,000 --> 01:22:39,000
So there's no increase in the stormwater runoff.

1004
01:22:39,000 --> 01:22:46,000
So it's not making the drainage condition worse and that respect and that's per city standards.

1005
01:22:47,000 --> 01:22:54,000
As far as the condition of that outfall, the project can verify what the there's no obstruction.

1006
01:22:54,000 --> 01:22:58,000
I mean, it'll continue to use that that pipe that allots into the pond.

1007
01:22:58,000 --> 01:23:04,000
So if there's any maintenance and needs to be done on that, the project can provide that.

1008
01:23:04,000 --> 01:23:11,000
For transportation, I do know that the connection for Capitola Drive was part of the city general plan and transportation element.

1009
01:23:11,000 --> 01:23:20,000
I'm not familiar with the timing on that or any contingency on the the five winter section either I would defer to staff on that as well as the sequo findings.

1010
01:23:20,000 --> 01:23:21,000
So.

1011
01:23:21,000 --> 01:23:22,000
Thanks.

1012
01:23:22,000 --> 01:23:25,000
Thank you.

1013
01:23:25,000 --> 01:23:27,000
Okay, council.

1014
01:23:27,000 --> 01:23:30,000
Bring it back for any questions.

1015
01:23:30,000 --> 01:23:33,000
Clarification, council member murals.

1016
01:23:33,000 --> 01:23:36,000
I don't really have questions, but thank you Paul for the presentation.

1017
01:23:36,000 --> 01:23:39,000
I think this is a pretty strong in fill project.

1018
01:23:39,000 --> 01:23:45,000
It's a build out of one of the last undeveloped parcels in that already urbanized subdivision area.

1019
01:23:45,000 --> 01:23:54,000
I will share that I used to live in this immediate area on Willob and court about three houses down from the the part where the parcel is.

1020
01:23:54,000 --> 01:23:57,000
We always knew that Capitola Drive was going to go through.

1021
01:23:57,000 --> 01:24:01,000
I don't remember it being tied to the five way intersection, but.

1022
01:24:01,000 --> 01:24:09,000
So that was kind of new to me, but I think the completion of that missing segment is important and beneficial to the neighborhood.

1023
01:24:09,000 --> 01:24:12,000
No one wants the five way intersection done more than I do so.

1024
01:24:12,000 --> 01:24:19,000
We are moving along with that project also, but I just want to point out that that extension is really important for that community.

1025
01:24:19,000 --> 01:24:26,000
I have heard some legitimate concerns from the neighbors about this, but the public comments seem to focus on parking.

1026
01:24:26,000 --> 01:24:34,000
The cumulative impacts and it wasn't really mentioned tonight as much, but I'll just say neighbor issues in general with the applicant.

1027
01:24:34,000 --> 01:24:37,000
I understand the concerns about parking.

1028
01:24:37,000 --> 01:24:39,000
I think that's a concern in every neighborhood.

1029
01:24:39,000 --> 01:24:42,000
This project does exceed the city's parking requirements.

1030
01:24:42,000 --> 01:24:47,000
There's garage parking driveway parking and limited street parking.

1031
01:24:47,000 --> 01:24:52,000
You know, regarding traffic in that area, when Capitola was extended in the other direction.

1032
01:24:52,000 --> 01:24:56,000
The neighborhood was also really concerned about traffic.

1033
01:24:56,000 --> 01:25:00,000
It's been fairly minimal, and I think the more openings we can have in that neighborhood.

1034
01:25:00,000 --> 01:25:04,000
It's probably going to be better for traffic and traffic flow.

1035
01:25:04,000 --> 01:25:08,000
Regarding the cumulative environmental impacts, this is an urban info site.

1036
01:25:08,000 --> 01:25:10,000
It's not a sensitive habitat.

1037
01:25:10,000 --> 01:25:12,000
It's a previously developed parcel.

1038
01:25:12,000 --> 01:25:14,000
It's in an existing neighborhood.

1039
01:25:14,000 --> 01:25:17,000
The storm water controls are included.

1040
01:25:17,000 --> 01:25:19,000
It's consistent with the general plan.

1041
01:25:19,000 --> 01:25:24,000
Based on the record, I don't see evidence that would overcome this equal info exemption.

1042
01:25:24,000 --> 01:25:29,000
And then finally, I just want to say regarding the issues with the applicant with fence dispute.

1043
01:25:29,000 --> 01:25:34,000
So I know we've read about in the public comments in Balorock parking and code enforcement complaints.

1044
01:25:34,000 --> 01:25:38,000
I think there's a genuine concern about the developer not following the rules.

1045
01:25:38,000 --> 01:25:44,000
And I think the way that we address those concerns is by making sure construction management is watch closely.

1046
01:25:44,000 --> 01:25:47,000
And communication with the neighbors is really strong.

1047
01:25:47,000 --> 01:25:50,000
For example, you know, what are the hours of construction?

1048
01:25:50,000 --> 01:25:52,000
Where contractors going to park?

1049
01:25:52,000 --> 01:25:55,000
How is the dust control going to be managed and so on?

1050
01:25:55,000 --> 01:26:00,000
So I think once you get through the construction, then you have eight new neighbors in an HOA,

1051
01:26:00,000 --> 01:26:03,000
which I'm hopeful will be easier to work with.

1052
01:26:03,000 --> 01:26:08,000
But hopefully city staff maybe if city staff could comment on some of the construction management,

1053
01:26:08,000 --> 01:26:12,000
that might be helpful to alleviate some of the fears about the next couple years.

1054
01:26:12,000 --> 01:26:15,000
Thank you.

1055
01:26:15,000 --> 01:26:23,000
Yes, all construction would have to occur within the requirements outlined in total eight of the code between seven AM and APM.

1056
01:26:23,000 --> 01:26:27,000
There's all standard conditions that will apply to the project.

1057
01:26:27,000 --> 01:26:33,000
They have to sprinkle water to which are dust, all the usual general requirements for all projects.

1058
01:26:33,000 --> 01:26:35,000
Then follow up question.

1059
01:26:35,000 --> 01:26:39,000
If someone if a neighbor does have an issue, do they call the city, do they call the applicant?

1060
01:26:39,000 --> 01:26:41,000
What's the process for that?

1061
01:26:41,000 --> 01:26:44,000
So during the course of construction, if there's an issue, you would contact the building division.

1062
01:26:44,000 --> 01:26:52,000
The chief building official, and that would start, whether that becomes a code enforcement issue or something that planning would need to enforce,

1063
01:26:52,000 --> 01:26:58,000
but that's where you would start during construction.

1064
01:26:58,000 --> 01:27:01,000
I'm Molly Radigan, community resources and developer.

1065
01:27:01,000 --> 01:27:03,000
I just want to offer one re-clearification.

1066
01:27:03,000 --> 01:27:09,000
The project applicants and the caretakers on the property are not the same people.

1067
01:27:09,000 --> 01:27:13,000
Caretakers on the property were the individuals that have been a little bit more competitive.

1068
01:27:13,000 --> 01:27:17,000
But more competitive had the bottle rock parking incident and whatnot.

1069
01:27:17,000 --> 01:27:23,000
We have since made really good contact with the project applicant in the actual owner of the property who has been very helpful in resolving many of those issues.

1070
01:27:23,000 --> 01:27:28,000
So I just wanted to clarify it's not the exact exactly the same people they are related to.

1071
01:27:28,000 --> 01:27:31,000
Thank you.

1072
01:27:31,000 --> 01:27:32,000
Thank you.

1073
01:27:32,000 --> 01:27:33,000
Thank you.

1074
01:27:33,000 --> 01:27:34,000
Councilmember Lurus.

1075
01:27:34,000 --> 01:27:36,000
Councilmember Lurus.

1076
01:27:36,000 --> 01:27:37,000
All right.

1077
01:27:37,000 --> 01:27:39,000
Thank you.

1078
01:27:40,000 --> 01:27:45,000
The environmental, there's questions, there's environmental memo attached to presentation.

1079
01:27:45,000 --> 01:27:48,000
I think addresses some of those concerns.

1080
01:27:48,000 --> 01:27:51,000
That was mentioned previously with the exemption for class 32.

1081
01:27:51,000 --> 01:27:55,000
So I think you'll get a lot of answers on that in the conclusions.

1082
01:27:55,000 --> 01:27:59,000
There was some, there was some public comment back to the,

1083
01:27:59,000 --> 01:28:04,000
what the plan commission regarding offense, what the neighbor.

1084
01:28:04,000 --> 01:28:05,000
I was concerned.

1085
01:28:05,000 --> 01:28:08,000
I don't know if that was addressed.

1086
01:28:08,000 --> 01:28:12,000
I'm also concerned about some of the family's second, you know, second story being built.

1087
01:28:12,000 --> 01:28:13,000
Can.

1088
01:28:13,000 --> 01:28:15,000
Sorry to be back here.

1089
01:28:15,000 --> 01:28:18,000
Can you provide feedback on that?

1090
01:28:18,000 --> 01:28:19,000
That was addressed.

1091
01:28:19,000 --> 01:28:20,000
Yes.

1092
01:28:20,000 --> 01:28:24,000
So this project includes the standard condition that the applicant work with each of the neighbors.

1093
01:28:24,000 --> 01:28:29,000
Either to construct a new fence or if that specific neighbor in property owner doesn't want a new fence.

1094
01:28:29,000 --> 01:28:32,000
The applicant is welcome to build a new fence behind.

1095
01:28:32,000 --> 01:28:34,000
This is a new fence.

1096
01:28:34,000 --> 01:28:42,000
With that being said, any fence dispute or property line dispute is a civil matter that the city can't really get into.

1097
01:28:42,000 --> 01:28:46,000
And we let that neighbor know that.

1098
01:28:46,000 --> 01:28:49,000
That these are the requirements of the project and.

1099
01:28:49,000 --> 01:28:54,000
But if there's anything beyond that any sort of property line dispute, it's outside of the city's jurisdiction.

1100
01:28:54,000 --> 01:28:58,000
So just to clarify, part of this project in the site plan.

1101
01:28:58,000 --> 01:28:59,000
As I have.

1102
01:28:59,000 --> 01:29:01,000
I guess adequate.

1103
01:29:01,000 --> 01:29:04,000
Fencing that provides privacy for the existing neighborhood.

1104
01:29:04,000 --> 01:29:05,000
Yes.

1105
01:29:05,000 --> 01:29:08,000
I'd absolutely have to provide at least a six foot solid fence along the perimeter.

1106
01:29:08,000 --> 01:29:09,000
Okay.

1107
01:29:09,000 --> 01:29:10,000
Great.

1108
01:29:10,000 --> 01:29:11,000
Thank you.

1109
01:29:11,000 --> 01:29:13,000
And then on the west side of the road.

1110
01:29:13,000 --> 01:29:16,000
Does the lot line end with a worth on the west side of the road?

1111
01:29:16,000 --> 01:29:17,000
Or is there.

1112
01:29:17,000 --> 01:29:20,000
Extension of land passed a road on the west side?

1113
01:29:20,000 --> 01:29:21,000
Yes.

1114
01:29:21,000 --> 01:29:26,000
So the property boundary would be generally on the west edge of the proposed extension of capital

1115
01:29:27,000 --> 01:29:28,000
Okay.

1116
01:29:28,000 --> 01:29:29,000
Perfect.

1117
01:29:29,000 --> 01:29:33,000
And then as far as the water looks like that the by that there's a.

1118
01:29:33,000 --> 01:29:35,000
Retention pump right there.

1119
01:29:35,000 --> 01:29:37,000
That's in the south part.

1120
01:29:37,000 --> 01:29:42,000
So that's sufficient according to what the applicant said that we're comfortable with.

1121
01:29:42,000 --> 01:29:45,000
And enough water retention that something across issues.

1122
01:29:45,000 --> 01:29:46,000
Yes.

1123
01:29:46,000 --> 01:29:47,000
With the project.

1124
01:29:47,000 --> 01:29:51,000
The applicant is required to submit a stormwater control plan to demonstrate.

1125
01:29:51,000 --> 01:29:52,000
That.

1126
01:29:52,000 --> 01:29:56,000
The water impacts of the project would be either equal to our less than existing conditions.

1127
01:29:56,000 --> 01:30:00,000
I'm run off levels are equal to our less than existing conditions.

1128
01:30:00,000 --> 01:30:26,000
Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thanks for the presentation. Sorry about that. I mean, first of all, I want to just concur and agree that I think, you know, we really need to look at infill housing, but this project also brings that capital drive connection, which I think is really important beyond just the housing piece.

1129
01:30:26,000 --> 01:30:38,000
I did listen to the planning commission hearing, and maybe other council members did as well. We didn't touch on it, but the architectural design in this project is really top notch.

1130
01:30:38,000 --> 01:30:47,000
It's a great project architecturally, and I just want to acknowledge that because not every project that goes before planning commission receives those sort of accolades.

1131
01:30:47,000 --> 01:30:58,000
So I think it's going to be a project that will not only blend well with the community, but really enhance the neighborhood. I think the design will do that.

1132
01:30:58,000 --> 01:31:07,000
You've spoken to the number of notes that I have on my list, particularly the sequo exemption, which I think the memo was very clear on that.

1133
01:31:07,000 --> 01:31:22,000
I don't know that we need to elaborate more, but it is an important point, but I think the memo was was sufficient in looking at how and why and under what basis the city used that sequo exemption.

1134
01:31:22,000 --> 01:31:39,000
And I think the only other point that I want to try to clarify is that it's eight homes, but the way that I look at this map and listening to the conversation that occurred at planning commission, we actually have two parcels distinct from the homes, not just one.

1135
01:31:39,000 --> 01:31:58,000
So I just want to clarify, and I think the conditions of approval and the resolution are very clear in terms of the HOA and CCNR management of those, but there is the shared parcel that I think is listed as personal A on that map by a retention facility.

1136
01:31:58,000 --> 01:32:16,000
And then the road itself is a separate parcel. The parcels don't run to the center of the cul-de-sac. I haven't delivered on a cul-de-sac similar to this where we have seven homes, not eight, but our personal lines run to the center of the street and then there's easements back. There's several ways that you can do it.

1137
01:32:16,000 --> 01:32:27,000
But in this particular case, as we make the approval, I just want to be clear and maybe you can correct me that I believe we're creating two parcels in addition to the eight, not just one. Is that right?

1138
01:32:27,000 --> 01:32:31,000
That's correct. Eight parcels for the purpose of sale.

1139
01:32:31,000 --> 01:32:38,000
Eight parcels for the purpose of sale, but the presentation indicated one additional parcel, one in fact, I think it's two additional parcels.

1140
01:32:38,000 --> 01:32:40,000
That's correct.

1141
01:32:40,000 --> 01:32:51,000
Yeah, I prepared to move forward with this. I think the only other thing that I will say, as we look at infill housing projects and the state looks at infill housing projects,

1142
01:32:51,000 --> 01:33:08,000
we, as a city, just recently, approved one of our first larger, lots of subdivisions under what's called AB 1123, which is for this type of project, except generally somewhat smaller homes.

1143
01:33:08,000 --> 01:33:15,000
And those are ministerially approved. So this is a project that I think that has gone through a really comprehensive process.

1144
01:33:16,000 --> 01:33:25,000
Our ability to make changes is getting less and less, if you will, through through state mandates.

1145
01:33:25,000 --> 01:33:37,000
But I think the use of the SQL exemption in this particular case is really is not only appropriate, but helps try to streamline our efforts to create housing and infill development.

1146
01:33:37,000 --> 01:33:41,000
So I'm supportive of the project as proposed.

1147
01:33:41,000 --> 01:33:46,000
Thank you.

1148
01:33:46,000 --> 01:33:55,000
Yeah, I've seen in my time here quite a few of these infill projects, and I think that's where the council understands what the RUL and the need for housing is.

1149
01:33:55,000 --> 01:33:59,000
It's inside the RUL, as we're going to build housing.

1150
01:33:59,000 --> 01:34:02,000
And so this is one of those projects, and I understand change.

1151
01:34:02,000 --> 01:34:05,000
I've been involved with it in neighborhoods before.

1152
01:34:05,000 --> 01:34:10,000
You remember not too long ago, we had the Ruston Street project off a redwood road.

1153
01:34:10,000 --> 01:34:16,000
And it was the same thing. It was a connection where Ruston had dead end, and then it was going to connect to redwood.

1154
01:34:16,000 --> 01:34:24,000
And it was a concern about increased traffic on the neighboring streets, but actually with better distribution and circulation.

1155
01:34:24,000 --> 01:34:32,000
I think everybody, it helps, but obviously bottle rock is a different, a different beast when we start having the impact from bottle rock and neighborhoods.

1156
01:34:32,000 --> 01:34:36,000
But that's not where we are. We're on this subdivision map.

1157
01:34:36,000 --> 01:34:42,000
An infill project that is, is said it is looks like it's very well done in a good spot architecturally.

1158
01:34:42,000 --> 01:34:49,000
And I think I'm with Councilman Painter ready to move the tentative map along.

1159
01:34:49,000 --> 01:34:58,000
So I appreciate the concerns of the neighbors changes is changed, but hopefully we're making the right moves.

1160
01:34:58,000 --> 01:35:08,000
And when the five way gets done, hopefully cars will get off a hand of sea and all those other connecting streets.

1161
01:35:08,000 --> 01:35:19,000
So if there's no any no further deliberations, I've heard a couple of willingness to support and move along on staff's recommendation for the resolution.

1162
01:35:19,000 --> 01:35:23,000
So I'll entertain that motion.

1163
01:35:24,000 --> 01:35:31,000
I'm happy to make a motion to adopt the resolution.

1164
01:35:31,000 --> 01:35:35,000
Should I read the entire motion? Is that better for the record?

1165
01:35:35,000 --> 01:35:42,000
It would be yes for this particular case. So the recommendation is to adopt a resolution approving a tentative subdivision map,

1166
01:35:42,000 --> 01:35:49,000
design review permit and use permit to divide the approximately 1.46 acre parcel into eight single family lots,

1167
01:35:49,000 --> 01:35:54,000
with detached single family residential homes associated site and landscape improvements,

1168
01:35:54,000 --> 01:36:02,000
including retaining walls over three feet in height, a shared access driveway, and one parcel containing the sites shared by a retention facility.

1169
01:36:02,000 --> 01:36:07,000
I will note that there's also the parcel for the shared road.

1170
01:36:07,000 --> 01:36:16,000
And I use permit for the creation of two flaglots and application for of small lot development standards for the property located at 808 capital,

1171
01:36:16,000 --> 01:36:21,000
a drive and determining that the project is exempt from the from sequela.

1172
01:36:21,000 --> 01:36:23,000
I'll second. Thank you.

1173
01:36:23,000 --> 01:36:27,000
Move by pain or second by their via the own favor.

1174
01:36:27,000 --> 01:36:29,000
I need to post.

1175
01:36:29,000 --> 01:36:34,000
Characters unanimously. Thank you.

1176
01:36:35,000 --> 01:36:39,000
We will move on now in the reportable action from closed session.

1177
01:36:39,000 --> 01:36:40,000
Thank you Mayor.

1178
01:36:40,000 --> 01:36:47,000
Essentially I just wanted to announce for the public that the council did convene in closed session and regard to item 11C on the agenda.

1179
01:36:47,000 --> 01:36:54,000
The council did vote unanimously to initiate litigation on a receivership for a property located at 624 Montesito.

1180
01:36:54,000 --> 01:36:55,000
Thank you.

1181
01:36:55,000 --> 01:36:56,000
Thank you.

1182
01:36:57,000 --> 01:37:00,000
Connance by council or city manager go to city manager first.

1183
01:37:00,000 --> 01:37:02,000
No comments.

1184
01:37:02,000 --> 01:37:10,000
The council was mentioned in our afternoon session that we will be on recess until July 21st.

1185
01:37:10,000 --> 01:37:14,000
City business will continue to be conducted.

1186
01:37:14,000 --> 01:37:19,000
I'm sure a lot of us are adjunct committees and commissions will work as well.

1187
01:37:19,000 --> 01:37:25,000
But our regular city council meeting will reconvene on July 21.

1188
01:37:26,000 --> 01:37:27,000
Any other council?

1189
01:37:27,000 --> 01:37:29,000
I got one from.

1190
01:37:29,000 --> 01:37:30,000
Vice Mayor.

1191
01:37:30,000 --> 01:37:31,000
Thank you Mayor.

1192
01:37:31,000 --> 01:37:33,000
I actually have two first council member Leros.

1193
01:37:33,000 --> 01:37:37,000
And I had the pleasure of attending the 85th anniversary of community projects.

1194
01:37:37,000 --> 01:37:40,000
It was a great day to celebrate them in the 17 million.

1195
01:37:40,000 --> 01:37:42,000
They've given back to the Napa community.

1196
01:37:42,000 --> 01:37:48,000
It was also great to see how many members in the room were 85 plus and looking great in doing well.

1197
01:37:48,000 --> 01:37:53,000
I think we had 14 to 16 of them that were 85 plus.

1198
01:37:53,000 --> 01:37:55,000
So that was a great event.

1199
01:37:55,000 --> 01:38:00,000
And the second event I went to in the last week was the send off for our Miss Napa County.

1200
01:38:00,000 --> 01:38:03,000
Milan Alas who actually joined us a few meetings back.

1201
01:38:03,000 --> 01:38:09,000
Who is going to compete in the competition for Miss California this weekend on Saturday.

1202
01:38:09,000 --> 01:38:12,000
And along for the ride with her is our community friend.

1203
01:38:12,000 --> 01:38:18,000
Judd Finkelstein who is competing on the fundraising side of the event for Mr. California.

1204
01:38:18,000 --> 01:38:20,000
And that will happen on Friday.

1205
01:38:20,000 --> 01:38:24,000
I wish them both luck as they head off to compete.

1206
01:38:24,000 --> 01:38:27,000
Thank you for sure I get it because.

1207
01:38:27,000 --> 01:38:29,000
All right.

1208
01:38:29,000 --> 01:38:32,000
I can see the scoreboard is dark so.

1209
01:38:32,000 --> 01:38:34,000
I will adjourn the meeting.

1210
01:38:34,000 --> 01:38:35,000
Thank you everyone.

1211
01:38:35,000 --> 01:38:36,000
Thanks dad.
