From 2022 through 2024, the City Council approved an amendment clarifying the number of public parking spaces and five extensions to obtain all necessary construction funding including State of California Tax Credits. AFH did not receive tax credits and assigned the Mariposa Project to the Cesar Chavez Foundation (CCF). In October 2024, the City Council approved the proposed Assignment of the DDA to CCF. CCF is a 50-year-old non-profit organization with eight affordable housing projects (434 units) in the San Gabriel Valley region either in development or under construction.

To make the project more competitive with 2025 State funding opportunities, CCF is revising the project and proposing the Mariposa Project become a four-story building with approximately 36 large family units.

With Council’s approval of the new Lead Dispatcher classification, City staff can move one step closer to restructuring the Police Department’s Communications Division in Fiscal Year 2025-26, to offer improved and more efficient operations and functions. These changes are in alignment with Goal One of the City’s Strategic Plan to “Enhance Public Safety.” A new Lead Dispatcher Class Specification provides Division personnel with better support.

In 2024, staff moved forward with engaging a professional consultant to conduct a Community Satisfaction Survey, particularly in advance of the City’s new Strategic Plan and new Fiscal Year Budget. The purpose of the Community Satisfaction Survey is to obtain statistically reliable data to improve the City’s understanding of the residents’ satisfaction, priorities, and concerns as they relate to services, facilities, and policies provided by the City. The City engaged True North Research to design the research plan and conduct the City’s survey. This will be the third satisfaction survey pursued by the City over the last five years. The survey provides opportunity to analyze the City’s progress with services and/or to understand top of mind community priorities. True North is a full-service survey research firm dedicated to providing agencies with understanding of community perceptions, concerns, and priorities. The firm has conducted over 1,200 survey research studies for more than 400 cities and school districts. Alhambra’s Community Satisfaction Survey was broadly defined and designed to help identify: key resident issues; satisfaction with City services; opinions on strategic topics; satisfaction with communications and engagement; and other background and demographic data to understand needs, perceptions, and interests. Representatives from True North Research will present to the City Council details regarding the results of the Community Satisfaction Survey. The full detailed results of the survey are featured in the final report prepared by True North, which is available on the City’s website at: https://www.cityofalhambra.org/DocumentCenter/View/6098/Alhambra-Community- Opinion-Survey-Report-25-v1T Recommended Action: City Council receive and file the 2024 Community Satisfaction Survey. | February 10, 2025 Item #1 | |||

20250127 | Item | 3. PUBLIC HEARING TO CONSIDER A RESOLUTION CERTIFYING AN EIR, INCLUDING THE RESPONSE TO COMMENTS; ADOPTING FINDINGS OF FACT AND A STATEMENT OF OVERRIDING CONSIDERATIONS; APPROVING THE MMRP; APPROVING THE COMMUNITY CENTER PROJECT ON THE SITE OF THE FORMER HEALTH CLINIC ON SHORB STREET BETWEEN 6TH AND 7TH STREETS, LOCATED AT 612 WEST SHORB STREET ON A SITE OF 1.77 ACRES; AND APPROVING A PARCEL MAP FOR THE PROJECT, INCLUDING A VACATION OF A PORTION OF SHORB STREET, LOCATED BETWEEN 6TH AND 7TH STREETS AND DIRECTING ISSUANCE OF A NOTICE INVITING BIDS – F2M22-65, N2M25-8, R2M25-4 This is the time and place set by Notice No. N2M25-8 for the City Council to hold a public hearing to consider approval of the Alhambra Community Center Project at a 1.77- acre site located at 612 West Shorb Street, between 6th and 7th streets. Approval of the Project includes approval of a parcel map, aggregating lots and vacating Shorb Street between 6th and 7th to facilitate the Project. The Council will consider certification of an EIR for the project, including the associated response to comments, mitigation monitoring and reporting program, findings and statement of overriding considerations. The City of Alhambra is the owner of the Property located at 612 West Shorb Street, located between 6th and 7th streets. The Property is the site of a historic building that was formerly a health clinic, but which has been vacant for decades. In 2020 the City Council began imagining a use for the Property, and determined that construction of a community center on the site would provide a much-needed amenity for the local neighborhood, as well as the City of Alhambra at large. Unfortunately, the City did not have funding for such a project at that time. In April 2023, the City received a grant from the State for construction of a community center in the amount of 25 million dollars, thanks to the efforts and State Assemblymember Mike Fong. The City then retained an architect, project manager and environmental consultant to prepare designs for consideration by the City Council and Alhambra community. The Council held public meetings to consider design options on October 25, 2023 (on site), March 11, 2024 and June 18, 2024. Approval of the project requires an environmental evaluation under the California Environmental Quality Act. Options were included in the project studied in the event that additional funding became available during the processing of the project, ranging from 17,000 square feet, up to 25,000 square feet. Currently, the City projects the current available funding would be sufficient to construct the 17,000 square foot project, but the project will be designed to enable additions if funding becomes available in future years. The City determined that it would prepare a full Environmental Impact Report (EIR) for the project. Pursuant to State CEQA Guidelines Section 15082, the City circulated a Notice of Preparation (NOP) together with the Initial Study to State, regional, and local agencies, interested organizations, and members of the public for a 30-day period, commencing May 28, 2024, and ending June 27, 2024. Based on public input and the results of the Initial Study, the Draft EIR addresses environmental effects in the following areas: Biological Resources (special-status species and the movement of wildlife species), Cultural Resources (historic and archaeological resources), Geology and Soils (paleontological resources), Noise (all except airport land use plan, private airstrip), and Tribal Cultural Resources. The Draft EIR determined that impacts to biological resources, archaeological resources, paleontological resources, noise and vibration, and tribal cultural resources would be less than significant with the incorporation of mitigation measures. Additionally, the current Property to be utilized for the Project is comprised of multiple parcels. The California Building Code prohibits construction of buildings across lot lines. Further, the Project also contemplates construction within the existing Shorb Street right-of-way, between 6th and 7th streets. The Subdivision Map Act allows these parcels to be joined into one lot to allow for construction of the project if the Council approves a parcel map for the site. Finally, the next step in the progress of the Project is to direct staff and the City’s consultants to prepare a Notice Inviting Bids for the 17,000 square foot Project. The proposed resolution directs staff to do so, and return to Council with a proposed award of contract for construction. The Project is described at length in the Final EIR document (comprised of the Draft EIR, written comments, responses to comments, and minor revisions/clarifications to the Draft EIR and the MMRP), are available through the City of Alhambra’s website here: https://www.cityofalhambra.org/743/Alhambra-Community-Center-Project. Recommended Action: City Council conduct a public hearing and thereafter adopt Resolution No. R2M25-4 entitled: A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF ALHAMBRA CERTIFYING AN EIR, INCLUDING THE RESPONSE TO COMMENTS; ADOPTING FINDINGS OF FACT AND A STATEMENT OF OVERRIDING CONSIDERATIONS; APPROVING THE MMRP; APPROVING THE COMMUNITY CENTER PROJECT ON THE SITE OF THE FORMER HEALTH CLINIC ON SHORB STREET BETWEEN 6TH AND 7TH STREETS, LOCATED AT 612 WEST SHORB STREET ON A SITE OF 1.77 ACRES; AND APPROVING A PARCEL MAP FOR THE PROJECT, INCLUDING A VACATION OF A PORTION OF SHORB STREET, LOCATED BETWEEN 6TH AND 7TH STREETS AND DIRECTING ISSUANCE OF A NOTICE INVITING BIDS PRESENTATIONS | January 27, 2025 Item #3 | |||

SECOND READING AND ADOPTION OF AN ORDINANCE ADDING CHAPTER 6.28 TO THE ALHAMBRA MUNICIPAL CODE TO ESTABLISH VACANT PROPERTY REGULATIONS – F2M24-33, O2M24-4841 The City Council identified in the 2024 Strategic Plan Goal Three: Create a Strong Financial Base and Strong Economic Base (Economic Development). One of the goal’s objectives is to develop a program to address vacant commercial properties causing poor image. The vacant property regulations are intended to ensure vacant commercial properties are maintained and secured and to prevent the property from becoming a nuisance to the community. The regulations will require property owners to register with the City and pay an annual fee within 30 days after being notified by the City, post property management contact information on the property, and follow maintenance requirements. These requirements include: Property owner registration requirements including contact information of the property owner and/or property management company if the property owner is not within 40 miles of Alhambra; Building maintenance requirements including graffiti removal, and window cleanliness; Landscaping and irrigation plan to ensure the property is maintained free of dry plants and weeds; Fencing requirements including installation of fencing materials around the perimeter of the property; and, Security requirements including maintaining windows, doors, and other entrances. In addition, the regulations will provide additional support by activating vacant ground-floor commercial properties with window vinyl decals in the storefront windows. Staff will work with property owners to provide design and installation guidance. The window decals will be on the storefronts while the buildings remain vacant and/or under construction. The City Council considered this ordinance at the October 14, 2024 meeting and declared it introduced for its first reading.

20241028 | Item | 20. SECOND READING AND ADOPTION OF AN ORDINANCE RE-ADOPTING THE PRIMA FACIE SPEED LIMITS IN THE CITY – F96-33, F2M14-9, O2M24-4840 The City of Alhambra’s Public Works Department completed an Engineering and Traffic Survey (Speed Survey) for 88 street segments citywide and prepared the City of Alhambra 2023/2024 Engineering and Traffic Survey, which the City Council approved and adopted at its August 26, 2024 meeting. The purpose of an engineering and traffic survey is to establish updated speed limits that can be legally enforced using radar at pre-determined 10 locations. Engineering and traffic surveys can be an enforceable document for a maximum of 14 years as long as there have not been any significant changes in roadway or traffic conditions, including, but not limited to, changes in adjoining property or land use, roadway width, or traffic volumes (for example a traffic signal, road diet, bike lanes, road widening, etc.). States and local agencies should conduct engineering studies at least once every 5, 7 or 14 years, in compliance with the California Vehicle Code (CVC Section 40802) to reevaluate non-statutory speed limits on segments of their roadways. On September 9, 2024, the City Council adopted Ordinance No. O2M24-4839, updating the prima facie speed limits set forth in Chapter 11.08 based upon the 2023/2024 speed survey. At that meeting it was noted that some of the existing provisions of Chapter 11.08 appeared to be internally inconsistent. The proposed ordinance eliminates the references to prior ordinances and replaces the speed limit tables with lists of street segments set forth in the 2023-2024 survey to ensure internal consistency. The City Council considered this ordinance at the October 14, 2024 meeting and declared it introduced for its first reading. Staff is requesting that the City Council introduce O2M24-4840 for its second reading and adopt the ordinance. Recommended Action: City Council declare introduced for its second reading and adopt the following ordinance entitled: Ordinance No. O2M24-4840: An Ordinance of the Alhambra City Council amending Chapter 11.08 of the Alhambra Municipal Code to re-adopt prima facie speed limits in the City | October 28, 2024 Item #20 | |||

20241028 | Item | 9. CONSIDERATION OF AN ASSIGNMENT TO THE DISPOSITION AND DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT (DDA) TO THE CESAR CHAVEZ FOUNDATION FOR A PROPOSED AFFORDABLE HOUSING PROJECT IN DOWNTOWN ALHAMBRA – F2M19-39, R2M20-40, M2M24-196 In November 2020, the City Council approved a DDA with American Family Housing (AFH) to build a seven story 50-unit affordable housing project (Mariposa Project) on a City- owned parcel currently used as a surface parking lot in the downtown district between First and Second Streets, south of Main Street, immediately north of an AT&T Building. Since then, the City granted AFH five extensions with the fifth and final extension on August 31, 2024, to obtain all necessary funding for constructing the Mariposa Project. In 2024, AFH applied for the State of California’s 4% Tax Credit and worked with County of Los Angeles to increase the County’s funding share. However, AFH did not receive the 4% Tax Credit and decided to assign the Mariposa Project to another developer. AFH discussed the project with several developers and recommended the Cesar Chavez Foundation (CCF). CCF is a 50-year-old non-profit organization with eight affordable housing projects (434 units) in the San Gabriel Valley region either in development or under construction. CCF reviewed the Mariposa Project construction and development costs. To make the project more competitive with 2025 State funding opportunities, CCF is proposing the Mariposa Project become a four-story building with approximately 40 large family units and one level of subterranean parking. CCF will also seek additional funding from the County of Los Angeles and San Gabriel Valley Regional Housing Trust. If the City Council approves the proposed Assignment and Assumption of the DDA to CCF, the City and CCF will prepare an amended and restated DDA to reflect the foregoing changes to the Project, to be presented to the City Council in January 2025. Recommended Action: City Council approve an assignment to the Disposition and Development Agreement (DDA) to the Cesar Chavez Foundation (CCF), subject to final language approval by the City Attorney and City Manager, and direct staff to undertake the steps necessary to finalize the Council’s action, including, but not limited to the execution and recordation of all documents contemplated by the DDA.

TREASURER’S REPORT – F2M24-1 Recommended Action: City Council receive and file as submitted the Treasurer's Report prepared by the Director of Finance for the month of September, 2024, listing all of the City's investments as of September 30, 2024. | October 28, 2024 Item #15 | |||
20241028 | Item | 14. APPROVE CONTRACT AMENDMENT: CONTRACT OPERATIONS OF ALHAMBRA COMMUNITY TRANSIT AND SENIOR RIDE – F2M19-34, C2M19-38(B), M2M24-202 In 2019, First Transit was awarded a contract to provide contract transit operations for the City of Alhambra Community Transit (ACT) and Alhambra Senior Ride programs. This contract expired on June 30, 2024. On February 26, 2024, staff received authorization to distribute a Request for Proposals for a new five-year contract for transit operations. One operator (First Transit) submitted a proposal for the City’s consideration. During this same period, the City was discussing findings from a ridership study to better evaluate how the City’s local transit options could be improved. The Council directed additional study be undertaken. A new study, which shall include route and stop location considerations, is expected to be completed by March 2025. In the interim, while the City determines its next steps, First Transit agreed to extend their contract pricing through December 31, 2024 at a cost of $1,019,175.00, the same pricing as that stipulated under the 2019 contract. The ACT study to be completed in March 2025 and Council direction thereof could potentially impact future scope of work (and costs) for transit services, particularly if changes to route and location stops are enacted. As a result, staff discussed with First Transit the option to extend the contract beyond December 31, 2024 and through June 30, 2025. First Transit is agreeable to an extension through June 30, 3025; however, the company will need to increase its rate for the second six months of the contract amendment. The costs from January to June 2025 are an additional $1,489,910.50. The escalation is due to labor, employee benefits and insurance costs. Recommended Action: City Council approve a contract amendment with First Transit Inc., subject to final language approved by the City Manager and City Attorney, to extend the existing contract to June 30, 2025, for transit operation services for the Alhambra Community Transit and Senior Ride in the amount of $2,509,085.50 ($1,019,175.00 from July 1, 2024 through December 31, 2024 and $1,489,910.50 from January 1, 2025 through June 30, 2025), authorize the City Manager to execute the amendment, and direct staff to take the steps necessary to finalize Council’s action.

20241028 | Item | 8.

On October 16, 2023, a one-year time extension to October 29, 2024 was approved for the previously approved Tentative Tract Map No. 83544. On January 26, 2024, the City Engineer signed Tract Map No. 83544 and recommended recordation of the same. All of the Conditions of Approval applicable to Tract Map No. 83544 have been met and the project Conditions, Covenants and Restrictions have been approved.

SECTION TWO: This Council hereby approves Tract Map No. 83544 for a 7,855 square foot, seven (7) residential unit condominium complex on a site of approximately 13,750 square feet located in the RH (Residential High Density) zone for the property located at 1416 Benito Avenue and authorizes the City Clerk to endorse on the face of the map the certificate which embodies the approval of said map. | October 28, 2024 Item #8 | |||
20241028 | Item | 10. 2024 STRATEGIC PLAN UPDATE – F2M24-33 On April 8, 2024, the City Council approved the 2024 Strategic Plan following two special City Council meetings that were conducted to review and update the goals and objectives that were previously established in the 2023 Strategic Plan. The 2024 Strategic Plan contains six Goals: Goal 1: Enhance Public Safety; Goal 2: Improve Infrastructure and Mobility; Goal 3: Create a Strong Financial Base and Strong Economic Base (Economic Development); Goal 4: Enhance Transparency and Open Governance; Goal 5: Promote Sustainability; and, Goal 6: Improve Housing Opportunities.

20241028 | Item | 13. AWARD CONTRACT FOR REAL-TIME DATA VISUALIZATION PLATFORM AND ACCEPTANCE OF DONATION FROM THE ALHAMBRA POLICE FOUNDATION – F2M24-61, RFP2M24-21, C2M24-64, M2M24-201 On August 26, 2024, the City Council approved the distribution of a Request for Proposals to solicit proposals from qualified and experienced vendors to provide a Real-Time Data Visualization platform to serve as the key component in the Real-Time Information Center (RTIC). Real-Time Data Visualization is the process of sharing data with agencies in San Gabriel Valley, Los Angeles County, and Orange County to give police a clear picture of a situation as it evolves. The platform helps enhance situational awareness and officer safety by integrating existing systems such as Spillman CAD, Spillman RMS, Flock ALPR, Vigilant ALR, Evidence.com, and Laserfiche. On September 30, 2024, the City received five proposals, one of which was disqualified due to an electronic submission. Four Police Department staff members evaluated and ranked the proposals received in accordance with the criteria stated in the RFP, which consist of quality and completeness of submitted proposal, project timeline and implementation plan, fee proposal, qualifications, and experience with similar types of efforts. The proposal received from Peregrine Technologies Inc. meets all of the City’s requirements for this project. Recommended Action: City Council award a contract, subject to final language approval by the City Manager and City Attorney, to Peregrine Technologies, Inc. in the amount of $465,000 for a five-year term to provide a Real-Time Data Visualization platform; accept a $50,000 donation from the Alhambra Police Foundation; direct the Finance Director to appropriate expenditure and revenue funds to utilize the donation; authorize the Chief of Police to execute said agreement; and, direct staff to undertake the steps necessary to finalize Council’s action.
