Ms. Bonnie Toy, citizen, addressed the council and spoke concerning the lack of information on the City’s website requesting assistance from the community in locating an individual who committed a crime. She said after watching a Planning & Zoning Commission (“Commission”) meeting, she feels that the City Council and Commission members do not have the same vision for the city as the citizens of Lake Havasu City and suggested the council create a new revitalization committee called “Vision 20/22” to Lake Havasu City Page 1 Printed on 4/13/2022 City Council Minutes - Final March 22, 2022 generate a new vision and plan. Mr. Bobby Waldrop, citizen, addressed the council and said he started the Lake Havasu Softball Club back in 1977 and is looking to host a softball tournament in Lake Havasu City on May 1-3, 2022, with all proceeds benefitting the Boys and Girls Club of America.

CONSENT AGENDA 6.1 ID 22-3220 Approve the March 8, 2022, City Council Regular Meeting Minutes (Kelly Williams) 6.2 ID 22-3208 Adopt Resolution No. 22-3562 Approving an Intergovernmental Agreement with Lake Havasu Unified School District #1 for District Events Performed in Conjunction with the City (Kelly Garry) 6.3 ID 22-3226 Approve Agreement for Annual Services for the London Bridge Lighting Maintenance to Roth Lighting (Greg Froslie) 6.4 ID 22-3225 Approve the Cooperative Purchase of Printing, Mailing and Insertion Services for Utility Billings with Dataprose, LLC (Jill Olsen) 6.5 ID 22-3215 Call for Executive Session Pursuant to A.R.S.§ 38-431.03(A) 3:30 p.m., Tuesday, April 12, 2022 (Kelly Williams) Councilmember Lin requested Item 6.3 be removed for separate discussion. Councilmember Lane moved to approve the Consent Agenda as presented with the exception of Item 6.3, which was removed for separate discussion, seconded by Vice Mayor Dolan, and carried by the following vote: Aye: 7 - Mayor Sheehy, Councilmember Campbell, Councilmember Lane, Councilmember Lin, Councilmember Moses, Councilmember Coke and Vice Mayor Dolan Lake Havasu City Page 2 Printed on 4/13/2022 City Council Minutes - Final March 22, 2022 6.3 ID 22-3226 Approve Agreement for Annual Services for the London Bridge Lighting Maintenance to Roth Lighting (Greg Froslie) City Manager Jess Knudson said this item is a service agreement with an annual cost of $9,780 per year to ensure the system is working properly and to introduce new color formats throughout the year. He added that the agreement contains an indemnification clause which requires City Council approval. Councilmember Lin asked if city staff had the tools to perform maintenance on the lighting if the agreement was not approved, to which Mr. Knudson said the lighting was recently installed; however, technical assistance is required in terms of the software and how the system is utilized. He added that should anything else come up, the city would not have any out-of-pocket expenses outside the maintenance agreement. Councilmember Moses asked if this is an annual or one-time expense, to which Mr. Knudson said the agreement is for three years at an annual cost of $9,780. Mayor Sheehy stated that this is a maintenance service contract, not a software licensing agreement. Councilmember Campbell asked if the city was aware of these maintenance service costs prior to installing the lighting system and if the city has anyone on staff that can perform system maintenance, to which Mr. Knudson said city staff does not have the expertise to address the technical issues associated; however, over the next few years city staff will have more knowledge and hands-on experience to address any issues. He said the city was aware of the maintenance service costs with discussions taking place in December 2021; however, they were delayed due to changes in staffing. Vice Mayor Dolan added that the maintenance service agreement is going to assist with lighting color changes, themes/shows, and scheduling that requires additional knowledge of the software. Councilmember Campbell wondered whether Go Lake Havasu could be involved with the lighting changes, themes/shows, and scheduling since they oversee events, to which Mr. Knudson said the city welcomes the assistance of organizations with expertise in this area; however, this programming is proprietary. Councilmember Lin asked about the warranty and lifespan of the system, to which Mr. Knudson said the lifespan of the LED lights is several decades and the warranty is several years. Mayor Sheehy opened the public hearing. Lake Havasu City Page 3 Printed on 4/13/2022 City Council Minutes - Final March 22, 2022 Ms. Toy asked if this project went out to bid or if only one company can perform maintenance on the system, to which Mayor Sheehy said the technical support will be provided by the same company where the lighting system was purchased. Ms. Frankie Lyons, citizen, addressed the council and asked why the software was not included in the original purchase of the lighting system. She wondered if the lighting changes and themes are necessary as there are other events and lights that could compensate for that and felt it was unfair and unjust for the City Council to have to decide on something that should have been presented at the time of purchase. Mr. Murray asked if the maintenance agreement includes the annual software updates, to which Mr. Knudson said it includes updates to the software, hardware, maintenance, and lighting changes. There being no further comments, Mayor Sheehy closed the public hearing. Councilmember Lane moved to approve the multi-year General Services Agreement for the London Bridge Lighting Maintenance to Roth Lighting, seconded by Vice Mayor Dolan, and carried by the following vote: Aye: 5 - Mayor Sheehy, Councilmember Lane, Councilmember Moses, Councilmember Coke and Vice Mayor Dolan Nay: 2 - Councilmember Campbell and Councilmember Lin 7.

He added that the agreement is for two years in which the Fire Department will provide their paramedics with preceptorship (mentorship) training with oversight between the Lake Havasu City Fire Department and MCC to give students the experience and field experience needed to receive their paramedic and EMT certifications. Chief Pilafas introduced Ms. Kristina Long, Director of EMS and Health Services, and Dr. Liliya Tishchenko, Dean of Health Services, with MCC who were in attendance. Vice Mayor Dolan thanked Chief Pilafas and MCC for their partnership, support, and involvement in the community. Councilmember Lane added that the partnership also includes MCC credit hours.

He said this item is requesting approval of a Memorandum of Understanding with BLM that allows the city to work with BLM regarding signing designated trails leading from the SARA Park trailhead and route inventory of trails not yet designated. Councilmember Lin asked for an estimated cost of the signs, to which Mr. Keane said BLM currently has an inventory of signs available; however, the city would have the ability to purchase additional signs from BLM if needed. Mr. Keane added that the city would be required to follow BLM’s strict trail sign guidelines. Mayor Sheehy said the city does not anticipate a high cost for additional trail signs. Councilmember Campbell asked if members of the community could assist the city in this effort, to which Mr. Keane said volunteers would be assisting with route inventory of trails and anyone interested in volunteering could contact the Parks and Recreation Department. Mayor Sheehy opened the public hearing. There being no comments, he closed the public hearing. Councilmember Lane moved to adopt Resolution No. 22-3563 approving and authorizing the City Manager to execute the Memorandum of Understanding with the Bureau of Land Management, seconded by Councilmember Moses, and carried by the following vote: Aye: 7 - Mayor Sheehy, Councilmember Campbell, Councilmember Lane, Councilmember Lin, Councilmember Moses, Councilmember Coke and Vice Mayor Dolan 8.3 ID 22-3216 Approve a Development Agreement for The Havasu Life South, Tract 2406, with SSD Clarke Development Kearsage, LLC, Regarding the Public Improvements and Gated Entry for the Development (Jeff Thuneman) Development Services Director Jeff Thuneman advised that the item before the council is approval of a development agreement for Havasu Life South located at the corner of Kearsage Drive and Arapaho Drive. He said the property is approximately 2.5 acres and consists of 32 residential lots with private streets and a gated entry. Mr. Thuneman said because the subdivision will be served by private streets rather than public right-of-way, the developer must enter into a development agreement to address responsibilities associated with the installment and maintenance of public water and wastewater infrastructure for the development. He added that the agreement includes the developer’s responsibilities to install water and wastewater infrastructure to city standards and then Lake Havasu City Page 6 Printed on 4/13/2022 City Council Minutes - Final March 22, 2022 dedicate those utilities back to the city. Mr. Thuneman stated that the agreement also outlines the responsibilities for future repairs, the dedication of the utility easements within private streets, and gated entry requirements. He added that approval of this agreement will allow the final plat to be executed. Councilmember Lin said the development is close to two schools and asked where the gate to the subdivision would be located, to which Mr. Thuneman said there will be two gates that are approximately 20 to 25 feet off the right-of-way along Arapaho Drive. Councilmember Lin expressed concern regarding the large volume of traffic and proximity of the gates to the schools. She suggested the city install a “school crossing” sign at the gated entryways. Mayor Sheehy opened the public hearing. There being no comments, he closed the public hearing. Vice Mayor Dolan moved to approve the Development Agreement for The Havasu Life South, Tract 2406, with SSD Clarke Development Kearsage, LLC, seconded by Councilmember Moses, and carried by the following vote: Aye: 7 - Mayor Sheehy, Councilmember Campbell, Councilmember Lane, Councilmember Lin, Councilmember Moses, Councilmember Coke and Vice Mayor Dolan 8.4 ID 22-3224 Update on the American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) Coronavirus State and Local Fiscal Recovery Fund (SLFRF) Distributions to Lake Havasu City with Potential Direction Provided to Staff (Jill Olsen) Administrative Services Director Jill Olsen provided an update on the American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) Coronavirus State and Local Fiscal Recovery Fund (SLFRF) distributions to Lake Havasu City. She said when ARPA was originally adopted, it came with a loose set of guidelines called the interim final rule that were challenging for many local entities; however, the final rule was adopted in January 2022 and goes into effect on April 1, 2022. Ms. Olsen explained that Lake Havasu City received the first round of funding in September 2021 and will receive the second round of funding in September 2022. She said the key objectives of this funding was to deliver $350 billion for state, local territorial, and tribal governments to respond to the Coronavirus (“COVID-19”) emergency and lead a strong, resilient, and equitable recovery. Ms. Olsen reviewed the total funding and key eligible categories for Lake Havasu City as follows: • Lake Havasu City Total Funding: $8,528,306 o Evenly distributed over two years o Recommended for one-time expenditures (not recurring) Lake Havasu City Page 7 Printed on 4/13/2022 City Council Minutes - Final March 22, 2022 • Key Eligible Use Categories for Lake Havasu City: o Public Sector Revenues o Water & Sewer Infrastructure  Projects as are allowed under the Clean Water and Drinking Water State Revolving Fund o Public Health & Economic Response  Assistance to small businesses and non-profits • Loans or grants to mitigate financial hardship • Technical or in-kind assistance or other services to mitigate negative economic impact Ms. Olsen said other categories not specific to what our uses might be were COVID-19 mitigation, medical expenses, and behavioral healthcare. Ms. Olsen reviewed the public sector revenue loss as follows: • Public Sector Revenue Loss o Elect standard allowance of up to $10 million  Spend on Government Services • May spend on Government Services up to standard allowance or total distribution (whichever is lower) o Government Services generally include any service traditionally provided by a government unless the United States Treasury has stated otherwise, such as:  Building of infrastructure, including roads  Modernization of cybersecurity  Provision of Police, Fire and other public safety services Ms. Olsen noted that the funds have to be incurred or obligated by December 31, 2024, and have to be spent by December 31, 2026. She reviewed the specific restrictions as follows: • Specific Restrictions on Use o SLFRF may not be used for:  Deposits into pension funds  Debt service  Replenishment of reserves (rainy day funds)  Satisfaction of a settlement or judgement  Offset (directly or indirectly) a reduction in net tax revenue resulting from a change in law or regulation Lake Havasu City Page 8 Printed on 4/13/2022 City Council Minutes - Final March 22, 2022 Mr. Knudson thanked Ms. Olsen for reviewing the use and regulations of the ARPA funds and said staff is looking for consensus and direction from the City Council on how these funds should be spent. Mayor Sheehy said this item is before the City Council at the request of Councilmember Lin. He said the council has held fragmented conversations about the use of the ARPA funds including discussion at the October 26, 2021, council meeting regarding water and sewer rates, discussion at the February 2022 planning session on road improvements within the community, discussion regarding quality of life and park developments, and discussion on social service agencies within the community and the services they provide to the citizens. He said approximately $8.5 million will be allocated to Lake Havasu City over a two-year period with a requirement that the funds be used by December 31, 2026. He presented the City Council with a handout as a start to the conversation that proposed utilizing $3.5 million on water and wastewater projects, $2.5 million on pavement preservation, $1.5 million on parks and recreation, $500,000 on public safety, and $500,000 on social service agencies. Mayor Sheehy said there have been discussions concerning the social service perspective within the community and how the City Council can address the needs of social service agencies to mitigate negative economic impact or financial hardship. He said the City Council could give direction to staff to move forward with creating a mechanism for social service agencies to apply for those areas, including food, housing, medical services, agency services, childcare, senior adult care, senior services, and other social service needs. He said the city could then create a citizen board appointed by the City Council using the same process as the other boards/committees/commissions with five regular members and two alternates that would make recommendations to the council. He added that it would be a specific community resource board to discuss the application process, review applications, and make final recommendations to the City Council who would then award dollars to the different social service agencies. Councilmember Lin said she would like to hear from the social service agencies in attendance before making any decisions. She questioned the amounts proposed for parks and recreation and pavement preservation and how those areas tie into being negatively affected by COVID-19. Mayor Sheehy said those amounts would fall into the personal exemption of $10 million that allows the city flexibility with infrastructure. He spoke on the initial Community Block Development (CBD) process the city was required to go through for funding prior to the rules changing. Councilmember Lin said when the City Council decides to use the ARPA funding, she Lake Havasu City Page 9 Printed on 4/13/2022 City Council Minutes - Final March 22, 2022 would like to ensure that they are held accountable later and do not have to pay it back. She spoke on the negative impact COVID-19 had on the housing market, workforce, and social services in Lake Havasu City and expressed her desire to designate the ARPA funds towards helping people in the community. Councilmember Campbell questioned if utility rates are considered a tax, to which Mayor Sheehy said utility rates are a user fee in the Enterprise Fund, not a tax. Councilmember Campbell spoke on the reduction of the water and sewer rates and questioned if the proposed $3.5 million would go towards the rate shortfall, to which Mayor Sheehy said approximately $2 million of the proposed $3.5 million would go towards the water and sewer rate adjustments based on direction at their October 26, 2021, meeting. Councilmember Campbell questioned the level of funding being proposed stating that the city’s sewer revenues have increased approximately $1.6 to $1.8 million in the last seven months after the rate reduction. There was discussion regarding water and sewer rate reductions on October 26, 2021. Mayor Sheehy noted that specific water and wastewater projects will be tied to each area of funding. Councilmember Campbell questioned the use of ARPA funds towards infrastructure projects and expressed her desire to designate more funding towards social service agencies and one-time issues such as the housing and security crisis in Lake Havasu City. She was in favor of creating a community resource coalition. Councilmember Lin asked if Ms. Olsen could provide more information on the public mental health sector guidelines, to which Ms. Olsen said those guidelines allude to areas where people experienced decrease in revenue, financial insecurity, and increased costs associated with the COVID-19 pandemic. She added that staff could go back and find more detailed information within the supplementary or final rule section. Vice Mayor Dolan expressed his concern regarding the amount proposed for water and wastewater projects, but agreed with funding towards pavement preservation, public safety, and social service agencies. He said he would like to see more information on the parks and recreation projects, additional funding for public safety, and $500,000 for social service agencies each year for two years. Councilmember Campbell agreed with Vice Mayor Dolan’s comments related to the parks and recreation projects. She said she did not want to see ARPA funding being used for new parks or Downtown Catalyst projects. Lake Havasu City Page 10 Printed on 4/13/2022 City Council Minutes - Final March 22, 2022 Councilmember Moses spoke on the water and sewer rate adjustments and said he would like to wait until the end of the year to see whether there are any shortfalls in utility rate collections to fully commit to using ARPA funding for water and wastewater. He expressed concerns with funding parks and recreation projects but said he could support funding after-school programs and youth camps, pavement preservation, and investing in infrastructure. He said he was in favor of creating a community resource coalition and suggested the City Council initially commit $500,000 and then recommit additional funding for a second year if needed. Vice Mayor Dolan said he would like for the APRA funding to be separate from the budget where it can be reviewed and discussed by the City Council over the next two years. Councilmember Lane was in favor of creating a community resource coalition. There was discussion related to giving back to the community and using it in areas that are in the best interests of the public. Mayor Sheehy opened the public hearing. The following individuals spoke in favor of the City Council designating ARPA funding to support citizens in the community and social service agencies: • Mr. Morgan Braden, citizen • Ms. Cindy Katz, The Clothes Closet, Inc. • Ms. Christine Watson, The Clothes Closet, Inc. • Ms. Barbara Smith, Western Welcome Club of Arizona • Ms. Leslie Denney, Calvary Church • Ms. Angie Foltz, Western Arizona Senior Living • Ms. Frankie Lyons, Veterans United of Arizona • Ms. Bonnie Toy, citizen There being no further comments, Mayor Sheehy closed the public hearing. There was discussion regarding the process of forming a community resource coalition and funding level. Councilmember Lane said he was not in favor of setting a certain amount of funding for social service agencies at this time. He suggested the council create a community resource coalition to identify the needs and funding levels and give staff an idea of how much money is left for other needs such as deferred maintenance and infrastructure. Lake Havasu City Page 11 Printed on 4/13/2022 City Council Minutes - Final March 22, 2022 Mayor Sheehy clarified that the ARPA funding is stimulus money from the federal government utilizing the vehicle of COVID-19 to distribute through different mechanisms for local municipalities and is different than the initial funding of PPE loans. There was discussion regarding the Lake Havasu City Resource Alliance formed in 2020 that used CARES Act funding to support businesses and individuals due to the COVID-19 crisis. Councilmember Campbell suggested the council give direction to create the community resource coalition but wait on determining a specific funding level. Mayor Sheehy said the consensus he is hearing from the City Council is to direct staff to create a community resource coalition. He added that while the council does not seem in favor of determining a set amount, he believes a funding parameter is needed and asked if the council would be in favor of allocating $1 million for social service agencies over a two-year period with the ability for the coalition to request additional funding if needed. Councilmember Lin was in favor of setting a dollar amount to affirm that the City Council is serious about investing in the community. She said this is not about the non-profit organizations but the people that the non-profit organizations are helping in the community. Councilmember Moses said he was in favor of $1 million. Councilmember Campbell said she would like to see the City Council set aside $1 million each year for two years. Councilmember Lane expressed his concerns with allocating a specific amount when the City Council does not know what the true needs are in the community at this time. Vice Mayor Dolan agreed with Councilmember Lane. He said he would like to see the coalition determine the needs and how much funding is needed. Vice Mayor Dolan reiterated that he would like to see these items and conversations concerning the ARPA funds separate from the budget process and discussion. Mr. Knudson reviewed the budget process and how projects within the budget contain identified funding source(s), like ARPA funds, with a plan on how those funds are spent. Councilmember Coke said instead of the City Council determining a specific amount, she envisioned the social services agencies coming to the community resource coalition with the program and amount they need, and number of people they can serve with that Lake Havasu City Page 12 Printed on 4/13/2022 City Council Minutes - Final March 22, 2022 amount. Councilmember Lane added that he would also like to hear from staff on funding levels to address city needs. Councilmember Lin spoke on the buffer between the community resource coalition and City Council to ensure accountability for the non-profits and added that she would like to see the City Council set some amount of funding tonight to show their commitment. Mayor Sheehy said he would like to have some consensus from the council to give staff direction. He expressed his concerns that the ARPA funds are time sensitive and have different tranches based on federal legislation that would prohibit the City Council from circling back to this discussion until the next budget cycle on whether to use the funds for non-profits, who need funds for immediate infusion, and/or municipal purposes. Mayor Sheehy recommended that the council come to some consensus on the funding parameters to give staff direction, noting that staff would then come back with a resolution to create the community resource coalition, as well as the appointments of the members and the funding of the agencies and organizations and/or additional requests. There was consensus from the council in creating a community resource coalition and allocating approximately $1 million as a starting point for social service agencies. Ms. Olsen added that, in terms of accountability, the city (recipient) will remain accountable for the funding and will ensure that the non-profits (subrecipients) are following through with their program or plan for the funding. 9.
