City Council - Regular Meeting

have you all here and this morning we are going to start with our flag salute led by our public works director Mr. Derek Gady.

We will now move to our consent agenda. Is there anything board members would like to pull aside from 14A is going to be continued to a future meeting, and then 27B and 27C have been asked to be pulled. Anything else? And is there anyone here in the public who would like to pull an item off of consent? All right, I'll bring it back to the board for the remaining items.

I'll move approval of the consent agenda.

I'll second. Moved by Gore, seconded by Gustafson. This is a roll call vote.

Sure. Are there any questions on item 27B?

So can I just clarify what I heard you say, which was if we don't get the Caltrans funding and the project isn't completely funded, you will come back to the board to figure out alternative ways to fund the project or parts of the project.

Thank you. And is there anyone here in the chambers who would like to comment on this item? Anyone online? All right, I will bring it back to the board. And I'll second. Move by Gustafson, seconded by Jones. All those in favor? Aye. Any opposed? And no abstentions. We'll move to 27C.

Moved by Gustafson, seconded by Jones. All those in favor? Aye. Any opposed? And no abstentions. Thank you very much. We will now move to public comment. And before we get started on public comment, I just want to make you all aware of a little tweak in our policy. So I'll just read here the new policy. Please limit comments to three minutes per person. At the conclusion of your three minutes, a timer will sound and the chair will ask you to conclude your remarks. In order to ensure that everyone has an equal amount of time, if you have not finished within the 15 seconds after the timer soundi

I'm so sorry to cut you off. So we are only allowed to take during public comment at the beginning of the meeting anything that's not on the agenda. So for the 11 o'clock time item, when that item comes for a presentation, then we'll open up public comment for that particular item.

Thank you. Is there anyone else here in the chambers who would like to make a public comment? Anyone online?

All right, thank you. With that, we'll close public comment, and we'll move on to board member and county executive reports. Anyone have anything? Supervisor Gustafson?

I always have something, don't I, it seems. I just want to report on a couple items. One is we had a great turnout at the Fire Expo on Saturday, and I want to thank all the partners between CAL FIRE, Placer County fire, local fire. Our sheriff's office was in a full display with the tactical unit, and all the kids loved that, as well as the helicopter dropping some water on folks. Our fire wise, our fire wise community advocates, fire safe councils, PG&E, PCWA, Animal Control, OES, I'm probably forgetting a few, but it was a tremendous turnout of community folks and really demonstrating our co

Yes, I just wanted to let everybody know some of the things that have been going on in Placer County since our last meeting. Bonnie and I toured the newly renovated Auburn Library. It's not open yet, but it's going to be a really great location for students and adults and everyone who like libraries. And we also, I toured the... I toured the PCSO, the Placer County Sheriff's Office, their new training facility, and it is very well done, very well done, and it's gonna be a great facility for training new police officers. So then also I was invited and attended the Stars and Stripes barbecue at

Great. Thank you. Thank you. Any other board members? And Mr. Chattany.

You want to come up and just say a word or two?

Great. We're so happy to have you here. All right. It's not quite 930, so we are going to move to our first department item, item 8A, City of Colfax Law Enforcement Services Agreement.

Thank you. Are there any questions or comments from board members? Is there anyone here in the chambers who'd like to comment on this item? And anyone online? All right, I'll bring it back to the board. Moved by Gustafson, seconded by Jones. All those in favor? Aye. Any opposed? And no abstentions. We'll move to item 8B.

Thank you. Any questions or comments from board members? Anyone here in the chambers who'd like to comment on this item? And anyone online? All right, I'll bring it back to the board.

Thank you. Questions or comments from board members? Supervisor Gore?

Thank you. Appreciate that, Randall. Just a quick question. Is this fairly common in other jurisdictions like the city of Roseville when they do their temporary occupancy for model homes? Yes, it is. All right. Thank you very much.

Move by Jones, seconded by Gore. All those in favor? Aye. Any opposed? And no abstentions. Thank you. Thank you. We are now going to move to our 9.30 timed item, Court Employees CalPERS Contract Separation.

All right. Thank you. Any questions or comments from board members?

Maybe just a quick comment. I want to say thank you, because at the end of the day, you're making sure that the county pays for what the county's liabilities are and other entities are paying for what their liabilities are. And that's important. Somebody made a comment earlier, public comment, about unfunded mandates, right? And we experience this all the time. And I'm listening to her talk about unfunded mandates. I'm like, welcome to our world where the state of California says you must do this, but we're not going to provide any additional funding for it. So I just appreciate the hard work,

Agree. I think this is, I mean, I'll go as far as saying it's pretty exciting. You know, if I was a financial person, I think this would be very exciting. And I do think this is great news for Placer County and just the long term fiscal sustainability of where we're going to be 20 years from now. This is just keeping us on that good, strong path. And we really appreciate your hard work to make sure it happens. and appreciate Senator Nelow for jumping in and being willing to bring something forward. So with that, I will open up public comment. Is there anyone here in the chambers who would like

I will move approval of the item, and I'll second.

Moved by Gore, seconded by Jones. This is a roll call vote.

We'll go ahead and start. Amy, I know you have multiple items, but we'll just get through what we can get through right now. We'll move to item 10A, agreement with advocates for mentally ill housing.

Questions or comments from board members? I would like to say thank you so much for the work that you do with the CAPC. It's so important, as I know you all know, and you're super passionate about it, but really appreciate your commitment to this. And it's really great to see, Twyla, the increase in placements with family members. I think that's something I've just learned a lot about over the years and just how important it is to keep them connected with someone in their family. So that's really a great statistic to see. Other questions or comments? Supervisor Gustafson.

I just very much appreciate all of you and the hard work this is, challenging work, and I wish we didn't need to do this work, but because of you we're making a difference, and to see those results and more reports but less incidents, that means you're getting the word out. So thank you, and I appreciate the detailed report and all the work. Thank you.

Is there anyone here in the public who would like to comment on this item? Is there anyone from the CAPC who wants to say anything?

Thanks, Amy. Yes, it really does take a village. Supervisor Gore.

And I just wanted to follow up, whereas I appreciate the work you all do in partnership with the county. Because if we didn't have our nonprofits stepping up and doing this hard work, then we would have a lot more county workers trying to do this work. And I know very clearly that y'all are able to be a lot more nimble and flexible and meet needs in a different way and usually before it gets to a place where the county has to intervene. And so I just thank you for that. Because it is hard work, but it really matters that you help these families before they get to a place where they need additi

Right, when we look at 35,000 projected or 36,000 projected calls, I mean, that's an amazing number of people seeking resources and information.

Supervisor Gore? Just a quick question, Amy. So we contract with Nevada County to do this, right? Well, and then they contract out. I'm curious as to how much of our business is made up of that contract. Because we're a larger county. Do they contract with other counties as well?

Anyone online? No, Chair. Okay. I will close the public hearing and then have Stacey answer the questions.

Thank you. And then maybe to just speak to her, I guess this wasn't a question, but the comment about not knowing until she saw the notice in the post office. If she would like to be aware of future projects that are coming, how could she get notified of that? And then what was the notification perimeter, I guess? Yeah.

Perfect. Thank you. Supervisor Gustafson?

Well, I'll just add to that. In addition, we have the Municipal Advisory Council in Olympic Valley that heard this. We have forums, Susan, that you can attend and sign up for that as well through our office. And we'll make sure to connect you with that for future projects. I did want to make a couple of comments on this. So I was privileged to have met both Wayne and Sandy Polson. And their vision for this property was always a family compound. And that was what they had hoped to create, and they never did. And so we're so thrilled to see this project move forward, Susan, because they are down

OK. Supervisor Gord. Thank you. And I appreciate that. And I just wanted to clarify something. I think I asked you about this yesterday, Stacy. And that is the area that's being conserved, that area then will be managed by the Homeowners Association. So that area will be maintained. It won't be neglected. It'll look nice. for those nice views, but also for people who happen to be driving by, right? So that's terrific. It's going to be maintained, and that helps as well. Yes, correct.
