Liberty and justice for all. Thank you very much. Okay, we're now going to move on to item two, which is presentations and we have a presentation from visit Santa Cruz. And I see someone coming on now. Would you like to introduce yourself this evening? Sure. Thanks Mayor Brooks, Council Members. I'm Maggie Ivy. I'm with Visit Santa Cruz County. And thank you for hosting me on the agenda. I'm going to take about 10 minutes and just talk about what's been happening in the tourism industry. State of tourism, COVID impacts and looking ahead towards recovery effort. For those of you that aren't quite as familiar with visit Santa Cruz County, we're a countywide tourism marketing agency. We're actually a nonprofit by the one six. I report to a board of 25 members. Your city manager used to be on our board. We are funded by a special tourism marketing district. Similar to the BIA in Capitola Village. It's a special district that hotels are supportive of and they collect an assessment for every room rights day and that funds our marketing effort on an ongoing basis. Let me pull up my presentation though. Okay. Here we go. So this has been a challenging year for all of us and certainly for the tourism industry. Our agency works with local lodging businesses and other hospitality businesses and our goal is to bring an overnight business. We see that as high yield overnight during the off peak seasons of the year. Over the last five years of the current district, we've seen steady growth in TMD funds, which has allowed us to really expand on a lot of the marketing to support the community. We have very robust campaigns that run in the spring and the fall in what we call our drive market in Northern California. We also have been able to invest a lot in social media and international marketing. International is on pause right now for obvious reasons, but we look forward to starting to restart those programs. Our businesses have really come to depend on some of that international travel, again, particularly in the non-summer season. Pre-COVID, we were seeing pretty healthy growth in our budget. The tourism marketing district or TMD assessments pretty much follow the trend of TOT collections, as you might imagine. So the year before COVID hit, we actually had peaked at about a $2.6 million budget. Last year, we saw about a half a million dollar drop in those revenues. Thankfully, we've had reserve set aside and we have been able when conditions allow to continue marketing aggressively. 2018-19, the tourism industry in Santa Cruz County hit a huge milestone, hitting over a billion dollars in consumer spending in our county that year. This was something that we were particularly proud of and happy for the tourism industry and something that's been, you know, a long time coming. We've had some losses since then, obviously, but this shows you a trend with the TOT collections over the last 10 years or so. Again, consistent growth. This was county-wide. These are county-wide figures and we peaked at just about $25 million in 2018-19. TAPTOLA TOT collections really followed that trend as well. And of course, hotel occupancy, as you would imagine, same trend, continued consistent growth for over a decade. Unfortunately, we were looking at about 30% loss in hotel occupancy in 2020 due to COVID, which was significant, you know, a lot of challenges for the lodging industry over the last year. But I will say that we weren't hit as hard as some communities that really depend on business travel and group corporate business on a larger level. So again, just a quick recap. We hit a billion in 2018-19. We've seen about 30% to 50% losses in tourism business overall. Visit California actually just announced today that they calculated a 55% decrease in visitor spending on average throughout the state. And for lodging, we're looking at two to three years by most predictions in the industry for a complete rebound. So we had to pivot, as everyone has, the cities have, the local business communities. We jumped into the fray and started trying to help the local businesses keep their doors open. Please take the pledge campaign. Really, our businesses got faced with not only their own compliance but enforcement with the general public. So we were trying to do anything that we could to help send that message and make it friendly and try to make it supportive. And that was for locals and for visitors when visitors were able to come. We also ran a let's cruise safely campaign. And I'm going to share one of the commercials for that. And it was running in County and actually out of County. We also joined on behalf of all of the hotels and motels in Capitola and around the county, the California Hotel and Lodging Association. And what that did was allow those properties to work and get certified in CH and LA's clean and safe program. So again, making sure that we're complying and that we're letting the public know what what's happening and that the businesses were taking this very seriously. Our website has always been a primary tool for us, or I should say for at least the last 15 years in terms of promoting tourism. And this year it really again pivoted. It became a tool for us to talk about travel advisories to actually let the public know now is not the time to visit when when the restrictions were in place. And we also use the website during the fires to help centralize displaced residents and firefighters and communicate with the hotels that had availability. Latest updates were also on the website in terms of hotels, restaurants, retail, what's open and what are the guidelines for visitors and locals. You may have seen our commercial that ran locally through last fall. I thought I'd just play it for everybody. To cruise safely. Your favorite local businesses are ready to welcome you back. Support your community. Take the pledge to help keep yourself and others healthy. Wear your mask. Social distance. So again, the just pivoting back again to the website. We're finally starting to see our traffic ramp up again. This is the primary tool. We drive traffic to the website with all of our advertising and marketing, and you'll find all of the capital lodging properties and the participating other businesses on the site as well. We had peaked actually in 1819 with over a million visitors to the site. Big dip this last fiscal year, but we're on track to exceed a million visitors again and looking at a lot of pent up travel demand coming our way. Social media continues to be a huge play a huge role and even larger role as time goes on. And again, this is used to really parlay. Visitation and push traffic to the website and look toward booking business, you know, making it easy for the consumer to go ahead and book their hotel stay. Our content creation and social media allows us to really drill down and work individually with properties and themes. We represent the whole county. So we're very mindful that we want to be presenting those unique attributes of each part of the county. And I have to say that the ability for us to create our own content much more so these days and not just depend on the media has been particularly helpful. We actually have over 100,000 followers combined. Instagram is the fastest growing platform that we're using and so well suited for capital in the county with the beauty that we have to share with the general public. So it's it's been a great program for us and it continues to grow. We also do a lot of direct email marketing. We have a list of actually it's just over 60,000 subscribers now. As you can see on various subjects and again, it allows us to drill down and really look at unique aspects of the area and promote promote more niche themes than a general television campaign is able to do. In a normal year we get millions of dollars in media coverage that's really slowed down. We're still getting a lot of contacts from the media and much like I think the pent up demand for consumer travel. We're going to start to see a lot more coverage for our community in the coming year. So it's really been about trying to maintain those relationships over the last year and keep top of mind. I mentioned earlier international has been a big focus for us over the last 10 years. We were able to grow the international base for leisure visitation from 8% of our overall visitors to 13. All of this went on hold immediately last March through conversations with visit California. We're expecting in 2022 to start to ramp up these efforts again. We work in conjunction with their efforts as one of the California destination. And they're a great organization. Their budgets been decimated as well. But again, they're looking toward recovery in 2022. We just completed a survey of likely visitors to Santa Cruz County, which was full of a lot of good news. You might have seen an article in the paper last week. I will send a link for council members so you can look over some of the details of that. But in general it was good news. We wanted to know what was travel sentiment. And 61% of the respondents were positive about, yes, I'm going to be traveling this summer. 16% already made their plans and four out of 10 were finalizing plans. So travelers are ready to travel. They're ready to travel overnight. And we also found from those that follow us and on our list locally that visitors believe it or not in general are open to visitors coming back. So perhaps we're all realizing the economic value and in the need to really jumpstart visitation again this year. I should say the caveat is visitors are still expecting to have people wearing masks and social distancing and they appreciate all the safety measures the hotels are taking. They want them to continue doing that. Although we're hearing difference from the CDC to say, I guess. So spring campaign with all that in mind. We have ramped up started April one. We're running the campaign through June and we'll probably continue a different campaign through the summer because again, we just want to be top of mind. We are in recovery mode. We are hoping that in the next couple of weeks we're going to hear where the yellow tier, but in the meantime, we've already ramped up our vacation giveaway. We're running television and digital in our drive markets. And it's all about the road trip this year. That's what people are most comfortable with. So that's good news for us because over 85% of our visitors come from that drive market. The challenge is every other destination in California is also after those visitors. So we're spending about a half a million dollars for the spring campaign this year and that's on straight media buys to make sure that we are hopefully outspending and top of mind in our markets. These are just a few examples of the digital efforts we've worked with different publications over the years and digital marketing platforms. These are the some of those that have performed best for us and we're really doubling down on those this year. Social media let's use safely will continue to be our theme. What we're also hearing in the survey were in, you know, with information about outdoor dining is preferred outdoor recreation being at the beach fresh air parks beaches all that good stuff and safety first. So some of our messaging to the local businesses is keep up the good work. You're doing a great job. You know, we all want to support you. Let's make sure that we keep up this good work through the summer and make sure that, you know, Capitola the county as a whole is really seen as a safe and welcoming place to visit this summer as people start to venture out. And with that in mind here is our commercial that's running in the market. Let's cruise safely. Santa Cruz County is here to welcome you this season. Hit the road. I'm out in place. Enjoy the view and go with the flow. Plan your getaway. Visit lesscrewsacely.com. Stay safe, wear a mask and practice social distancing. Better to win your last vacation getaway at lesscrewsacely.com. And I'm happy to answer any questions. Thank you for allowing me to present tonight. Thank you so much.

Okay, I don't see any hands raised. Thank you so much for your time and I look forward to enjoying our, our beautiful town and seeing that commercial. That's right. Welcome. Those visitors back.

If you want to refresh your screen and let us know if there's any public comments. Mayor Brooks, I do not see any additional public comments on this item. And granted are we there's something weird going on with the internet out in the world of capitol it today. So I'm just going to make sure we give everyone ample time to click send if necessary. Okay, so we're now going to move on to item seven. That's staff and city council comments will withstand with staff. Do you have any comments? Told you something's going on with the internet. I think I need to give up using my external microphone. No, we have no comments this evening. Okay. Thank you very much. And comments from council. I see vice mayor stories hand raised. We'll go ahead and start with you. Thank you. I wanted to report out about our last art and cultural commission meeting, which was last Tuesday. A couple of three items I wanted to report out on. One is the council remembers. I think a couple of months ago about the council had directed the be a request for banners in the village. To the arts commission to work with the be a to select and create those banners. That matter came back to the arts commission last Tuesday and apparently the be a has asked the arts commission to take over that project. And the arts commission response or action was to set up a subcommittee, an exploratory subcommittee to just get some more information about, you know, the nature of the be a request. And what the scope of that work may entail. And we will certainly be working on that in meetings coming up. And we'll report back to the council as appropriate. The other item that we discussed concerning the painting of the stairs leading up to depot hill. You know, we had set up a committee to review that. And to connect some of the residents with the artist and to answer their questions. There was an actual webinar that was established. That was reported back to the commission. And then there was also discussion that the matter is coming back to the council at there at our May 27 meeting coming up. And that was just, you know, the nature of the discussion concerning that that project. The final item was the summer concert events. And we are still just kind of waiting, we are poised to present some version of the Twilight concerts, assuming that we will be able to. And then, and that we can figure out how to keep it, you know, safe for everyone. Since it is an outdoor, but a public event that's well attended. So, and the other is, you know, the Sunday at the park event. We're still poised and had not made a final decision on that yet was still waiting to see what the health orders may be. And that's my report out about our last arts commission meeting. Thank you. Thank you, Mayor Brooks. As some of you may know, for the last six or seven years, I've been the city's representative to the community action board of Santa Cruz County. And I wanted to share that may is community action month here in Santa Cruz County. The community action board known as cab has been fighting poverty and creating social change in in the county for over 56 years. Cab social services support 11,000 people with low incomes each year. And cab has cabs programming has four focus areas. Community service, immigration, homelessness prevention and intervention and employment. And I would like to invite everyone to visit the website, Facebook, Instagram and YouTube to learn more about how community action agencies support our communities, most vulnerable. And that is all for me. Thank you so much. Thank you, Council Member Peterson, Council Member Kaiser. Thank you. And some of you also on Council probably saw we've had some requests to fly a pride flag for the month of June, which is pride months. And so I wanted to bring it on to next agenda and ask the staff to review a policy for June pride month. Thank you. Thank you, Council Member. I most certainly think that's a great idea. And also, Council Members, we've been receiving a lot of emails around three C E and the energy or energy program here. And just to make you aware. I and our city manager, Jamie Goldstein sit on that board and we just had our first meeting. There'll be two more meetings and the three C E agency has asked that if there's anybody with concerns or questions to please email them. And they will be doing more outreach in the next coming week. Okay. So moving forward, if we have no other council comments, we're on to item eight, that's Consent Calendar. We'll take this as all one action. It's why I can have a motion to approve our Consent Calendar. Council Member Peterson. I move to approve the Consent Calendar. We have a first from Council Member Peterson. Do we have a second? I can second that. We have a first from Council Member Peterson and a second from Council Member Kaiser. Can I have a roll call please? Council Member Bertrand. I agree. Council Member Kaiser. Aye. Council Member Peterson. Aye. Vice Mayor Brooks. Excuse me. Vice Mayor Story. I'm so sorry. Aye. Thank you. And Mayor Brooke. Aye. Thank you. Thank you. That item passes unanimously already. They're trying to boot me out of this position. I see how it is. I'm kidding. I'm kidding. Okay. So Item nine. This is a presentation of the Coastal Commission, recommended modifications to capital and municipal codes. Chapter 17 zoning code. And this evening. Who do we have presented? Sorry. video. Good evening, Mayor Brooks and Council. Sorry, I'm just getting this led to a rolling, let's see, from beginning. Things are slow on the internet this evening. Let's see. Okay, can you see my screen? Can you see this screen? Yes, I can. Okay, great. Okay, before you this evening is, I think the final update for you regarding our zoning code and maps and the coastal commission certification. I'm quickly going to go over the process and then give you an update on what we learned from the coastal commission more recently. So currently we have two zoning codes, one that's applicable inside the coastal zone and one outside the coastal zone. So the new code to be applicable inside the coastal zone, it must first be certified by the California Coastal Commission. We're at the final step of, we submitted our coastal commission edits, our coastal, our zoning code to the coastal commission. And a few weeks back, they reviewed our submission and gave us some recommended changes. So we're at this step here. They have, we have an approval that's contingent upon Capitola adopting red lines. There are three options the city council has tonight. We can either accept their red lines and we'll have a certified zoning code citywide. We can decide not to accept the red lines and take no further action and we'll continue utilizing two zoning codes throughout the city. Or we could not accept the red lines and propose some revisions. This evening, I am recommending that the city council accept the coastal commission red lines. And I'll take you through the four main categories that they've asked for revisions in. First topic is the monarch code in. Actually, at the coastal commission meeting, it was a really great meeting. There were maybe a half dozen Depot Hill residents that showed up as well as the owners of the of the monarch code in. And the coastal commission really took to heart what they had to say. They also received at least a dozen emails from Depot Hill residents as well as the owners of the monarch code in. And when when reviewing our LCP, they voiced that they really appreciated the concerns of the owners as well as the Depot Hill residents and they wanted to take more time on this item. So they asked that staff remove any updates related to the monarch code then within our zoning code, take them out for this certification process and ask them to work with the owners and have them resubmit and come back for a separate review so that they could take time and really dive into the issues there and come up with a mutual resolution. So what the outcome of that is that the old code now has made its way into our new code is chapter 17.30. So we're bringing back the visitor serving district, but only those items that are related to the monarch code then. So all the previous development standards related to the monarch code then will be reintroduced within its own chapter. And then in chapter 17.28 where we had all of the new standards for monarch code then we've got a strike through. The other change is that within the general plan map we've brought back its designation that it has been historically a visitor serving as well as on our zoning map we had proposed an R1 with a visitor serving overlay. We've brought it back to what it was historically and as just a visitor serving. Let's see update on the monarch code then. So you'll have that one come back to you in the future. The Innateepo health site when I brought this to you about a month ago the coastal commission had made it clear that they did not want the R1 based zoning and that we should maintain it as a visitor's accommodations with the visitor serving overlay. So again two changes to the map both the land use map and the zoning map and then there's no real impact in terms of the use there so this is the change that doesn't have much impact that the use can continue and is supported within the general plan map change. So again took away that R1 based zone and in the general plan will be visitor accommodation with the visitor serving overlay and in the zoning map there'll be visitor serving as both the base zone and the overlay zone. And next is the former theater site. As you'll recall in our zoning code update as well as our general plan there's new standards for incentivizing a hotel on the former theater site and we left the rest of the standards within the code the same for this site and when the coastal commission reviewed our proposal they asked that they recommended that the city take out any ties to just a pure residential use there and that should really be visitor serving. So within the update within the land use table that's specific to that the visitor serving general they've put in footnotes that that residential use is prohibited on the former capital of theater site. So that that you know it's more of a on that last one getting utilizing the stick rather than the carrot we had a carrot approach that our approach is still in the code there are incentives in terms of floor ratio and height but just the ability to apply for a commercial on the bottom and strictly residential on top is no longer something they can apply for it will have to be a visitor serving use such as the hotel. So and finally they made modifications to our visual visual resource protection. So within the that incentivized chapter when we have the incentives to go higher at the theater site there's different references to viewpoints as well as preservation of views and they just they added language in there to specify where the viewpoints are and then also some other improvements to describing rooftops and how they should be how we should reduce visual impact. So those changes also are not substantial there are an improvement to our code. So in reviewing the coastal commission recommendations we found that they're in line with the city's local coastal program and really protecting our coastal resources and this beautiful place we call Capitola and also in line with the Capitola general plan and our vision for the future. So my recommendation tonight is to adopt a resolution accepting the California coastal commission modifications amending the city's general plan map the zoning map and also the specific chapters that are attached to the resolution. With that I'm available for questions. All right thank you so much Katie. Do you have any questions from council? Did the uh oh pardon uh vice mayor story. Yeah thank you um Katie um the theater property and the prohibition against residential would that apply or to prohibit if the current owner wanted to develop a condominium on the site that would be I mean potentially rented out or used this hotel? So if it were residential and not rented out it would be prohibited. I think the developer could come in with a proposal that we may have to if they wanted to do condos and do something kind of similar to like seascape where certain the condos have to be rented a certain amount of the year. Right. If if they wanted to do something like that I do think we'd have to go through an amendment possibly if they're going to be sold individually but in talking to the coastal commission about that idea they said that's something we'd have they'd have to work through with us possibly on an amendment but at this point yeah to produce it as residential that would be sold individually that would not be allowed at all it all depends on the structure and how would they bring in. Okay thanks. Welcome. Council member Batran. Yeah um getting back to the uh Monarch Cove was there any timeline put out there in terms of the negotiations with the neighbors and the blotches? No there was no timeline specified. I'm I'm hope it's really going to have to be initiated by the blotches to come back in and ask for us to start this process again but I expect they'll be back in soon and we'll move forward with the amendment once they come in. So it's on their initiation? It is yeah at this point if we have this adopted it's on their initiation to move forward. Thank you. Any other questions from council? Okay so now we'll open public comments for this item if you'd like to make a comment send an email now to public comment at ci.capitola.ca.us or to speak please raise your hand now by clicking on reactions and clicking raise hands in your zoom application or by dialing star nine on your landline phone.

update on the war for rehabilitation project contract amendment with moth at a nickel engineers for final design and construction services and authorization to proceed with preparing plans and the specifications for a piling repair project Mr. Jesper this is your item the evening merry council I'm seeing you can share see my screen so continue if you can't let me know thank you so this is an update on our work project just I'm going to give you a little bit more background it's been a couple of years before since this item has been in council and I just want to kind of touch base and make sure we're on the same page as we go forward so with the adoption measure after 2016 the council established some some goals and projects they wanted to be completed mainly the flume rehabilitation project the jetty real rehabilitation project and the warf project as you know the flume and jetty projects were just recently completed this spring in fact their notice of completion will be on the next council's agenda considering the war project well we always knew this was going to be a longer lead time to get this project completed just based on where it's located and the amount of money it's going to cost there was actually a resiliency report repaired by moth at nickel engineers back in 2015 it was kind of the form framework that measure f was used to pass identifying repairs that need to be made to the work with the approval of measure f and moth and nickel was hired to develop the projects prepare preliminary plans post workshops and begin permitting in october of 2018 then again in june of 2019 the city council held hearings where we reviewed project options and i got directions from them if the june 19 meetings the scope of work for the project was approved based on a subcommittee that had met with the council and based on these the estimated amount of measure f funds we anticipated being available for this project phase one of the project includes funding for measure f and other funds that we make available for example we have a we're got a state grant for the project um includes resiliency project by widening the trust utility upgrades damage file replacement in new restaurants that may cost us anywhere between five and seven million dollars and um we can kind of pick and choose that number a little bit depending on what we want to include on the available funding phase two which is uh sometime in the future on funding that needs to be identified would actually raise the wharf the head of the wharf where the buildings are five feet and then use the trestle at that point as a ramp up to the new buildings uh be a fourteen million dollar project here's a sketch i'll go over this really quickly this is what we use when we're talking about it the top in the yellow is option one the bottom is option two option one as you can see it has this widening that's the solid yellow all new decking which is the cross-pass two new restrooms all one level um seven seven million dollars then we come back if there's funding available in the future we would raise the end of the wharf um from 19 feet to 24 feet replace the buildings here and then extend each of these piles um along the trestle to meet meet the new higher ed the piles we're selecting for phase one are fiberglass piles that are easy to extend to extend the old trestle part you'll have to look at either replacing the existing piles or extend finding a way to extend the wood piles so the current status as the CEQA was approved in April 2020 all permit applications that were submitted by july of 2020 we have received the permits from the regional water quality control board we're waiting for permits from the coastal commission port of engineers national marine fisheries and us fishing wildlife and we expect to have those all by mid to end of summer plants 30 complete and the only reason we keep them at 30 is we're waiting to see if there's any permit conditions we need to necessitate changing to the plants i think they're they're kind of working on them slowly to make sure they can get them ready and pretty quickly if we need to move we have to make the construction length will be nine months for this whole project so now some good news on the permit side in the agenda report i talk about a nymphs mitigation requirement that would limit our ability to our time window to drive new piles to do a lot you know june through october which is basically our summer here when the wharf is in highest use luckily we provided them some information and an alternate mitigation plan that they have now accepted we got word on tuesday that they have accepted it this new proposal and mitigation will require will allow your around pile driving except no driving at night which we really had never anticipated but just clarify no driving during or immediately after any storm event and to maximize vibratory driving move impact driving and that's just the method to put the pile in the mud you bang it with a hammer that's the impact that creates the most noise vibrate where you just shake it is much much less noisy so the nymphs has agreed with that so luckily that constraints is now lifted from the project now some really great news today we received word from congressman panetta that the capitol war project has been recommended by him for some federal funding thanks to the mayor who led this effort congressman panetta has listed us at 1.4 million dollars i think he's allowed to nominate 10 projects we really don't know what the process is but we've made the first step which was to make this public recommendation on behalf congressman so this is great news moving forward we'll keep the council informed as we move forward with this like i said we've asked for 1.4 million dollars there's 10 projects on the recommended list we are the largest ask but i think we have the biggest need and we had a great meeting with him out on the work and he seemed truly to be interested in trying to keep the work i think the best part was giving him a picture of his dad at the opening of the work look at the project schedule so originally since we're kind of laying this out about a year ago we anticipated having all our permits in place today and actually be moving toward getting bids so that we can construct it this fall and winter obviously we're a little bit behind on our permitting and now we have the federal funds funding potential that we probably need to wait for as i said nymphs is no longer an issue if you've not stated in the report so the federal funding the federal budget is approved in september so that's what i think we would get confirmation we may get some heads up before then but certainly we wouldn't know a positive vote until the federal budget is adopted if we do get federal funding we will require a NEPA certification which NEPA is the federal equivalence of SEPA i'll probably get it wrong so i'll just leave it at NEPA and anticipate that actually could take us four to six months to complete it could be relatively quickly it could be quite kind consuming we're just i'm sure until we know details of where the funding's coming from so with assuming kind of a worst case we would delay bidding until april 2022 at that point the construction occurring next fall so a year later but then federal funding is not successful then we could be prepared to move as soon as that's official and say that september of this year and we could construct potentially this fall i'm sorry next spring summer and fall we we want to discuss whether we want to avoid construction during the summer that had always been our goal so it may be that we end up being constructing next fall anyway but that's something we can discuss once we know more about the federal funding so with the delay in the project the engineers and staff myself grew to are growing more and more worried about the steel pilings at the head of the work um we had you know anticipated building it this fall so we were working on that timeline so confident providing or not working on those until that time now we're looking into delay which did last as long as the year we really think it's time to deal with the steel piles at the head of the pipeline i have a picture i'll show you here in a minute of them um they're quite corroded they're still working they're still doing what they need to do but they're just uh i think it's time to work on them also this past winter we had some damage under the restaurant that occurred it didn't affect the structure but we think it'd be best to deal with it and shore it up before it does lead to further damage so as part of the approvals tonight we're asking authority to prepare a project we will return with the plans and specs and all that have you authorized us going to bid hopefully in june and we will as long as we have all our permit approvals all this work was anticipated in this project in the resiliency of the larger project we can build it in phases without having to get new permits also the state grant has indicated as long as we have our permits in place we can use that state funding for this first phase of the larger project if you will so our schedule would be to bid it in june construct it in november september to november and right now our estimate cost is $800,000 i think we will be refining that as we get the plans together and when we return with the approval of the plans we'll update that estimate at that time so here's a picture of the side of the wharf you can see the erosion corrosion on the piles all rested this pile in particular um is is i don't want to say near failure because i don't think it's going to fail tomorrow or the next day but certainly a year from now it could be severely compromised and it's it's just time to what we're going to do is probably either sleeve these into almost concrete or we're going to put a sleeve inside until concrete so either way these will become concrete filled piles that will be much more resistant to corrosion than the steel piles they put in the 1980s so finally the main emphasis of tonight's item is to extend mothlet nickels engineering contract they've done all the work for the on these three projects they originally given a contract in 2017 in the amount of 183,100 to develop the projects you know kind of tie down their scopes through the environmental work they conducted two workshops for us and at that time we estimated the total engineering contract would probably top the million dollars even though we're starting at a low amount because we really hadn't known what was involved in the permitting and design work at that time in 2018 we came back and added 524,500 that was to begin permitting for all three projects take the plume and the jetty through final design so we could get those out and bid we later removed 70,500 from that project because as far as the council's approval and the scope of work we took the buildings out of that project we're placing the building so the architectural fees in there were taken out and then under that contract we we did rather well mothlet nickels not spend every dime they've been very cognizant of their chargingness and we're actually able to utilize that contract to help have them help us with the damage that occurred to the war from 2021 we almost lost both ways so we were able to get some extra work under the existing budget there at this point the budget is just about spent they are continuing to work but it's time for the final amendment and we're recommending approval of it's the three hundred fifty one thousand dollar three hundred dollar contract it'll be for the final permitting plans specifications construction support and forty thousand dollars in unforeseen support and we just anticipate we'll need as we finalize that project so here's a quick contact summary the different phases and the amount of money in the total we will spend it as nine hundred eighty eight thousand four hundred dollars which is under the million dollars we were joining us for meaning so the recommended actions tonight are to approve a contract amendment to mothlet and nickels engineering contracts adding three hundred fifty one thousand three hundred dollars for final design and construction service of the war for evaltation project and provide direction to public works to repair a project to repair failed pilings and other and other work for construction this fall and with that i'd be happy to answer any questions okay vice mayor story thank you mayor brooks thanks steve for that update my question goes to when the plans are finalized will they come back to us in the form of a public hearing so that you know the public will have a final opportunity to weigh in on the the design absolutely we with any project we'll come back with project specs and and have the plans approved we could schedule another hearing and dance with that if you'd like just to review the plans once we know all the permit conditions that might be worthwhile venture to right yeah i think it may take more than one shot at it just to you know it's a very visible with the huge project for the city and so but yeah i'm glad to hear that there will be further opportunities for public interest thank you councilmember kaiser thanks and thank you steve for the presentation i was just wondering um you were talking about the um the piles that are at the front of the wharf and filling them with concrete is that just a band-aid solution or is that something that's included in this whole sort of million dollar lump sum or is that going to also have to be redone once the actual project starts no that's just the permanent repair that we would be doing we're just pulling those out in advance right now but it is permanent repair okay yeah it makes sense thank you any other questions from council okay we're going to move on to open public comment for this item if you would like to make a comment send an email now to public comment at ci.capacola.ca.us or just speak please raise your hand now by clicking on reactions and clicking raise hands in your zoom application or by dialing star nine on your landline phone a moderator will unmute you you will have up to three minutes to speak very do you have do we have any attendees with their hands raised any of Brooks I do not see any attendees with their hands raised at this time on this item and I do not have any emails on this item okay we'll just give it a minute anything now um doing a refresh I do not see anyone with their hands raised and I do not have any emails on this item okay we'll bring this back to um comments from council and further deliberation and a vote do you have any council comments so we'll go ahead and entertain a motion do I have a motion to approve item 9b I'll make the motion to approve this item 9b second back I have a first from council member Bertrand and a second from council member Kaiser to approve a contract amendment to FMAFET and nickel engineers contract for the war for rehabilitation project in the amount of three hundred and fifty one thousand three hundred dollars for final design and construction services and receive a report regarding a safe project to address existing bailing piles events of the primary war resilience project can I have a roll call please I agree number Peterson hi bike mayor's story hi hi thank you very much thank you to staff and thank you again to staff for hosting um our our um visitor Jimmy Panetta the other day I think it was obviously well received and seeing this cross look at the funding to finalize the entire project so thanks again we're going to move on to item 9c this is the champs to happen solar in the stokes college union elementary school district and I believe Nikki this is your item yes thank you good evening mayor Brooks council members I will take just a minute to share my screen or your presentation everybody can see my slides well all right so the item before you tonight is uh camp capitol operation at some county union elementary school district uh so camp capitol is the city summer day camp program that has been operated at the capitol community center for quite some time uh before the pandemic the program offered holding program and a half day program which included um your typical summer camp recreation activities which was uh sports games arts and crafts walking field trips fun um and we served about 300 participants each summer uh this summer camp capitol as last summer will operate under the uh california department of public health COVID-19 guidance for uh youth program and it's um the we have sorry capitol recreation has previously established youth programs with the school district uh we have to have in the past pre-pandemic the capitol rec club which was hosted at new brighton middle school which was an after school program uh in response to the pandemic we provided um the OST program as a distance learning support and then have recently transitioned that program to a after school program now that the students are doing four days of in-person learning at their school the district provides a summer school program each summer invite students to attend that program it's traditionally in the past it has just been at one particular school but this year the district decided to have it at each school site for accessibility in typically campus kids connection would be the provider for the school district to provide a summer camp that would follow the summer school day um however ckc has not operated uh since march of 2020 with the shutdown of the pandemic and as they are returning to operation are only planned to provide program at main street elementary for this summer the city has um already established relationship with the school district and our residency residency requirements for recreation programs includes the school district boundaries and so would make a reasonable partner um moving forward for a camp program to follow the summer school program that the school district hopes um so the city will expand the camp capital program um as it is now same session length same structure same fee structure um but provide a half day program at um each of the elementary school that does not have an option so that would be so-called elementary Santa Cruz garden and then given appropriate staffing resources also new Brighton middle school um the program would operate monday through friday and would start at 11 30 a.m and go until four p.m with an option for extended care that would take the day until five p.m uh each site will have a capacity of 24 participants which is actually the same as the osd after school that is currently operating on on those campuses and for the program we would be using the already existing camp capitola fees for a two-week session half day fee which is $153 for residents and 191 for non-residents the school district has pledged to contribute $16,000 in funds to support the program a typical summer with the city's budget beginning in july so summer programs typically span two different budgets um and so this will be equally divided between those two budgets the anticipated additional income for the fyi 2021 budget is uh 26,292 with expenses at 24,621 um a resolution amending the current fyi 2021 budget is included with this item and then the portion of this program that would be in the upcoming fyi 2021 budget is included in the draft budget so staff recommendation is to receive the presentation regarding the operation of camp capitol program at social union elementary school district sites and adopt the proposed resolution amending the fyi 2021 recreation division project and i am available for questions at this time and i'd also like to uh point out that michelle kennedy as the superintendent for school district is also in attendance this evening should council have any questions for her as well council member peterson thank you i think you mentioned at the beginning of the presentation that the program would continue to follow covet guidelines and i know that right now the um uh what's suggested is that all of the mask requirements are going to be going away uh in about a month in june 15th so does that mean that the students uh or participants would no longer have to be wearing masks during the program or would that still be required thank you for asking that um unclear at the moment we are following the guidance that has been provided for youth programming um the state has not changed any of that existing guidance and so we will follow that until um until it is changed until we have a question makes sense thank you another question from council okay so now oh gosh where are my notes now we'll open this to public comment for this item i don't have this memorized yet i will by the end of the year do you like to make a comment send an email now to public comment at ci dot capital s dot ca dot us or to speak please raise your hand now by clicking on reactions and clicking raise hands in your zoom application or by dialing star nine on your landline phone our moderator will unmute you and you will have up to three minutes to speak we have any comments from our attendees mayor brooks i do not see anybody uh with their hands raised comment and i do not see any emails on this item we'll just give it a second ladies and gentlemen i have a joke what did the ocean say to the shore wait a minute it just waved was this my joke last time i think so isn't this the same joke from last time because it was like earth day or something wasn't it okay i'm gonna work on that i'm gonna work on it let's refresh larry ask the donut i do not see any attendees asking to talk on this item and i do not see any emails all right let's move this back to council for comment and a vote any comment from council councilmember trans my daughter has fond very fond memories of having been in camp capitol and so it's great that um niki you've partnered with the school district so many more kids could you know have the same set of memories and so i'm glad the school district and michelle's on the line so i'm glad she's part of this i'm sure she helped with the funding and so all around good deal good deal and any other comments otherwise we'll go ahead and entertain a motion i'll move the staff recommendation we have a first i can second we have a first from councilmember vice mayor story and a second from councilmember keiser can um to a excuse me to receive presentation regarding the operation of the camp capitol of program at so-called union elementary school district sites and adopt the proposed resolution amending the 2021 recreation division budget may have a roll call please i agree councilmember keiser peterson i vice mayor story i mayor brooks i okay moving on to item nine d received report on grant awards for a telephony office of emergency services for the emergency power improvement at the city hall conference and good evening man council the item before you is a consideration of uh in a report on a grant we received to install solar and battery improvements at city hall for emergency power and the city received a $300,000 grant from California office of emergency services for backup power this is part of their impact reports for republic safety power shutdowns or psps as they're more affectionately known uh we've had two rounds of grants we were unsuccessful in the first round the second round we were successful and obtaining the amount of grant we requested let's go for the projects that includes the installation of solar panels and battery backups and battery power storage units and decommissioning the diesel generator currently servicing just the police department the new solar panels and battery will be sized to service and keep all city hall council chambers community room and the police department uh operational um for a period of time period of time it's going to be depending on the design as we go through this staff is recommending that the project be completed using a design build process our typical process is we prepare design we did it and we build it this time we're going to let the contractors do the designing so we make sure we get the latest and greatest technology that's out there and also for them to address some of the options that are available in the solar industry today so to complete the design design build process the city will issue requests for qualifications and pre-qualified contractors the city will then receive bits from the approved contractors and the city will then award a contract and the award of that contract can either be based on price if they're all equal or we can establish other criteria such as the number of hours that it keeps city hall operational or other things um other criteria that we need to identify that'll be something we'll be working on the schedule and the fiscal impacts um CalIS has given us an extension as originally a deadline of October of this year to complete it they realized the challenges and meeting all the public contracting code probably prohibited uh agencies from being able to meet that deadline so they've extended it to March 31st of 2022 project budget includes the $300,000 grant there is a $90,000 local match for a total budget of $390,000 um is anticipated that the local match could come from the facility fund and if we move forward tonight and get the approvals we need that allocation will be included in the 2021 budget which is currently being reviewed so the recommended action tonight is to operate the public works department to issue a request for qualification and advertised for bits for design bits contract and sold full of panels battery storage and related equipment for emergency power at the city hall complex so that is my report and I'd be happy to answer any questions thank you Steve any questions from council this evening okay seeing none we'll take this to public comments if you've been watching attendees you know the drill click on the hand to raise it for star nine to unmute yourself or email us at public comment at ci.capitola.ca.us Larry do we have any attendees with their hands raised Mayor Brooks I do not see any attendees with their hands raised and I do not have any emails on this item okay we'll just give it a beat before we move on to council comment and deliberation and a vote we're almost done folks Larry I do not I do not know what nobody has raised their hands those of yet and I do not see public comment and emails all right this is not awkward at all okay so let's bring it back to council for further comment and deliberation and a vote any comment okay can we enter this will be the time to entertain a motion do we have a first I can make the motion a second a first council member Kaiser and a second from council member Bertrand to authorize the Department of Public Works to issue a request for qualification and advertise for bids for design build contract to install solar panels battery storage and related equipment for emergency power at the City Hall complex can I have a roll call please hi for Peterson this item passes unanimously in the now move on to our last item of the evening 9e this is to review the implicit bias training proposals and Mr. Lorenz this is your item thank you let me share my screen make sure I do it right share so I hope you see this so may motion council thank you I'm here to present about the implicit and unconscious bias training proposals that we've received and the reviewing of those proposals City Council during its goal-setting session established a goal to provide implicit unconscious bias training for council member and staff at the March 25th meeting the City Council we've directed staff to issue an RFP for this training the training for the RFP for council and non-police staff closed on April 19th at the April 22nd meeting City Council director staff to review the proposals and return with the top three for council consideration the city received seven proposals I think originally I said six but I can't count that high so I think I mistaken but we did receive seven proposals all the seven vendors have experienced issuing this sort of training staff reviewed myself Chief McManus and our personnel and our analysts Renee DeMar reviewed and recommend the following three vendors to the council circle up education CPS HR consulting and Shawn J. Fletcher consultancy all three of these recommended vendors have experienced in the public sector and have strong references upon checking and so we're very comfortable with all three of these recommendations there is a significant difference in the proposal pricing ranges but I think there'll be a lot of whittling down because I think some of some of the some of the proposals overestimated the number of staff and things like that so I think that some of those numbers will change by the time it's all sudden done so the recommended action at this point is to select that for the council select a vendor for the implicit and unconscious bias training and then to authorize the city manager to negotiate and to enter into agreement for the training and at that point I'm here to answer any questions okay council members we have three groups in front of us this evening to pick from are there any questions about any of the three or questions for staff council member Peterson thank you can and I apologize I know we've we discussed this but can staff remind me what we or if we created a budgetary kind of guidelines for this how much money we set aside for it or have we not done that yet I apologize I can't remember there was no budget item but we believe between the this year's training budget and next year training budget as well as some grant training we we can get we'd be able to cover all of the plans but again I think some of the the higher proposal as overestimate the number of employees we had so it's going to be less but I think based on what we see for over two years because we believe this is going to kind of go over two fiscal years there is enough funding in the training budget as well as some other sources okay so we didn't previously make a decision to set aside you know 50,000 or 20,000 or anything we didn't I don't believe there was a number okay just making sure thank you okay I have a question about what were some of the things that made you choose these top three out of the seven and Chief McManus if you'd like to um answer that what stood out to you between the three of them and um what you liked or what were you were looking for when looking at the three of you good evening members and council uh living I'll first start by saying the the large majority of the african seven total is pretty clear to review the RFPs and we did these reviews independently and then came together as a three person group it was pretty clear that that there was a lot of expertise that was introduced by way of the RFPs and that was important to to recognize and to to see or to read the other thing for me that was really important um and maybe more so in the three that we that we have recommended and the others is a commitment on the front side to meet with city staff and council and others so that they can craft the training that is very specific to Ireland's Sharon Capitola um the projected curriculum if you will um was fairly consistent with other implicit bias training that that I've been part of for the last several years but there was some uniqueness in in some of the proposals including the three that were bringing forward this evening and we thought that that was important as well um and so I think the product uh regardless of which one council decides upon the product is going to be very close to meeting your expectations our expectations and probably providing the the training in the guidance that we're seeking for for staff and I think that the three of us recognize that most in these three vendors as compared to the total seven so um from my perspective that was the basis for for my recommendations and by the way there was consistency in the the ranking of the seven amongst the three of us um and so and I think Larry you may note of it in the presentation so this is not affecting in order of one through three rather three total any of the three would be perfectly fine and suitable for all we're looking for I believe and just as a follow-up question did any because this is a an organization that's going to need to cover three different groups council and commission commission members city staff and our police department were there any that you found to be more qualified or have more experience did any of those stand out to you or look similar to the types of training that you receive every five years in um in the type of training really similar well let me let me back up for make that statement all three of these meet that expectation with regard to what you as our mayor and council might be looking for the other piece of it is there are a lot of similarities to some of the implicit bias training that I have participated in over the years but each of these three had a little bit a little bit of the unique delivery of that curriculum and and from my perspective anyway probably a little a little bit more relevant to to our our social expectations and you know potential injustices and the dynamics of our climate today and I think that was important to examine that as well and so building upon some of the historical implicit bias training that's been in place for many years each of these three I predict introduce that and then build upon that or go beyond that at least by what I was able to reveal in your piece from the vendors okay and then Larry for you my last question is in terms of staff we're so used to these like online video things that just really aren't getting to the core of why I think council has agreed to bringing this forward and making it mandatory for staff were there any that you found to be more to the beat of capitol or something that would work that stood out to you out of the three for for just city staff not just these online training correct I think they all primarily wanted kind of I will call them in person which is the remote you know where it's a kind of a group session as opposed to just having staff go into a you know a two hour session on their own they they do offer that as kind of a follow-up which I think is probably going to be something that we look at but kind of initial they all kind of proposed as groups to kind of get together and that's you know depending on the size you know I think they'll all work and I think it's important I think she's right mentions that kind of this is going to be a huge introduction for a lot of our staff and I think that's why it is important to have this kind of first introduction as as in person as we can get right now and I think that that was important I mean some there I think I remember correctly was at least one that basically just said here's our you know our training management system have at it and I think that was clear that wasn't what we were looking for you know I do believe that moving on if that's as we continue this this may that may be a great option for kind of refreshing and kind of maybe delving down into certain specifics but I think as a start the all three of these vendors offered kind of a group training that can be tailored to to our staff and they and again I think as you've mentioned they have experience in the local area and are aware of where what's going on here. Thank you. Any other questions from Council? Okay seeing none we're going to go ahead and take this to public comment. If you'd like to make a comment send an email now to public comment at ci.capitola.ca.us or to speak please raise your hand now by clicking on reactions and clicking raise hand in your zoom application or by dialing star 9 on your landline phone. Our moderator will unmute you and you will have up to three minutes to speak to this item. Mayor Brooks I do not see any attendees with their hands raised and I do not see any emails on this item. Okay we'll just give it a second before we bring it back for council comments and a vote. I do not see any new hands and I'm refreshing I do not have any new emails on this. Okay so we'll bring this back for comments from council. Do we have any comments at this time? Council member Peterson. Thank you. I first want to thank staff for taking the time to review all the applications and provide their recommendations. Of the three I was really of the three top recommendations that were provided I was really impressed by Circle Up and Sean Jay Fletcher. CPS is also impressive really they were all really impressive but those two I felt were just kind of rows above the rest in terms of what they were offering. It seems like in terms of cost Circle Up is kind of in the middle between CPS which was at the lower end the 4k and then Sean Jay Fletcher was a higher almost at 40k so Circle Up is kind of in the in the middle there and I was really impressed with their application so that's kind of where I'm leaning right now but I would also be really excited to work with the Sean Jay Fletcher group so I just wanted to share that as my thoughts on the recommendations with the rest of the council. Any other comments? Council member Kaiser? Thanks. I wanted to kind of mirror what Kristen said. I was yeah kind of intrigued by the Sean Jay Fletcher. You're saying that right? Yes and but I was I did have a little bit of sticker shock so I don't know if if we need to look more into that consideration or if we're fine with that type of budget but other than that I'm okay with either choice. Any other comments from council? Vice Mayor Story? Yeah thank you. Yeah just from reviewing the proposals and I think my preference would be for Circle Up education. I thought that they had the most thorough proposal and detailed proposal and obviously their pricing I think is much better than the Sean Jay Fletcher so I would support selecting Circle Up education. Any other comments from council on out of the three? Council member Batran did you have any feedback for us out of the three that you were leaning towards? Okay so I would agree with everyone here that Circle Up definitely did catch my eye. I think it's they're a great group and they like the fact I like who they've worked with and their references are pretty exceptional. What I would just again stress and I don't know what the process is with council on this but again to just ensure that these are the in-person be it Zoom training that these are just not online modules I feel like once we we say yes to this I just want to be absolutely sure that that's the kind out of the options there that that's what staff will be receiving on and the other thing Larry maybe can address if I don't believe we made a decision on whether this is going to be annual or every two years can you remind me where we sit on that? I don't think we made that decision this was the first decision that was going to be mandatory for all staff for this year and I think it can be reconsidered or considered by the council's an ongoing training program. I would suggest after we've gone through the first kind of sessions we can bring this back to kind of work it because we've got it we've got it handled for this year and you know then there'd be time to to decide if this is what council would like moving forward you know it'd be good to kind of I think it'd be good to kind of get one group of these trainings under our belt before we kind of make that final decision to make sure you know that what we're seeing on paper is what we're going to get in real life. I have a lot of confidence in that but it's always good to. Council Member Peterson? I'd like to make a motion that we select circle up as the vendor for implicit and unconscious bias training and that we authorize the city manager to negotiate and enter into an agreement for the training. Do we have a second? I can second. We have a first from Council Member Peterson. A motion pardon me and a second from Council Member Kaiser.
