MULTIFAMILY HOUSING REVENUE NOTE FOR TIERRA SPRINGS
APARTMENTS (1701 ALLAN WAY AND 786 KAWANA SPRINGS

BACKGROUND: Tierra Springs Apartments, LP has requested that the
Council issue a tax exempt multifamily housing revenue note to assist
financing the construction of 66 affordable housing units on two sites. As
the conduit issuer of the tax-exempt note, the City will have no financial
liability to the note-holder should the owner default on its note payments.

Multifamily Housing Revenue Bond Law, the current financing is
structured as a note, with Citibank, N.A., being the purchaser of the note.
The project owner is also responsible for payment of all costs of the note
issuance. Other project financing includes loans from the Housing
Authority, tax equity investment, developer fee loan and fee deferral, and
a seller carry-back note. The total project cost is estimated to be
approximately $19.4 million.
RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended by the Department of
Economic Development and Housing that the Council, by resolution; (1)
authorize the issuance, sale and delivery of a tax-exempt Multifamily
Housing Revenue Note in a principal amount not to exceed $11,000,000,

12.4 REPORT - AMENDMENT TO MEASURE O IMPLEMENTATION PLAN -
GANG PREVENTION
BACKGROUND: In August 2012, the Mayor’s Gang Prevention Task
Force (MGPTF) adopted the 2012-2016 MGPTF Strategic Plan which
provides a framework for the community combining the latest research
on successful approaches. The City Council included the efforts of the
MGPTF in the 2013-2015 Council Goals and adopted the 2012-2016
MGPTF Strategic Plan in December 2012.
Staff has reviewed the Measure O fund balance for the Gang Prevention
and Intervention programs and determined there to be sufficient fund
balance to implement the proposed one-time expenditures. The use of
Measure O reserves for these purposes is one-time in nature, and not
intended as an ongoing budget reduction. Six votes of the City Council
are necessary to approve an amendment to the Implementation Plan.
As of April 30, 2014, the net fund balance for Gang Prevention and
Intervention was $511,822. The proposed amendment to the Gang
Prevention and Intervention Implementation Plan is for FY 2014/15 and
reflects one-time costs to be expended out of the fund balance and

12.5 REPORT - MEASURE O BASELINE FUNDING
BACKGROUND: Ordinance 3680 added Chapter 3-26 to the Santa Rosa
City Code establishing a special transactions and use tax. The special
tax measure, known as Measure O, increased sales tax by a quarter cent
to fund specific Police, Fire, and Gang Prevention/Intervention programs,
as set forth in the Ordinance.
The Measure O ordinance has a provision that there be set a baseline
funding level for Police, Fire and Gang Prevention/Youth Programs in the
City of Santa Rosa
Regular Meeting Agenda and Summary Report

CITY COUNCIL JUNE 17, 2014
General Fund. This baseline was established with the FY 2004/05
budget for these programs, and is required to be adjusted each year by
the Consumer Price Index (CPI). The purpose of the Measure O
baseline language is to ensure services are enhanced, and not use this
funding to supplant existing baseline services.
Since FY 2009/10, the City Council has approved budgets that fall below
baseline with six affirmative votes of the City Council, as set forth in
Chapter 3-26.120 (G). Between FY 2011/12 and FY 2013/14, the Police
Department’s baseline funding gap was reduced but not eliminated.
While reducing the gap enabled some positions and programs to be
reprogrammed into the Police budget, it did not fully close the gap.
The Police Department General Fund proposed budget has been
prepared to meet the Measure O Baseline calculation for FY 2014/15 at
the amount of $44,444,208. The City’s total General Fund revenue is
projected to increase by 2.3% in FY 2014/15 over the projected General
Fund revenue for FY 2013/14. The projected CPI for FY 2014/15 is
2.5%.
RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended by the Finance Department
that the Council, by motion, approve funding for the Police Department at
baseline in compliance with the provisions of voter-approved Measure O.

BACKGROUND: Engineering staff routinely hire consultants under
Master Professional Services Agreements when specialized expertise or
additional capacity is needed for timely delivery of Capital Improvement
Program (CIP) projects. Project-specific Project Work Orders are
competitively issued to consultants when specific needs for consultant
services arise. Council authorized staff to execute Project Works Orders
under Master Professional Services Agreements with a cumulative not to

exceed sum of $6 million in Fiscal Year 2012-13 and $7 million in Fiscal
Year 2013-14. Project Work Orders were issued with a cumulative sum
of $5.3 million in Fiscal Year 2012-13 and of $6 million to date in Fiscal
Year 2013-14. The remaining balance from the prior authorization does
not carry over to the new fiscal year. Staff has reviewed the total fiscal
year amount for executed project work orders and recommends $7
million, plus $2 million for the Hearn Avenue Interchange Project, for a
total cumulative not to exceed sum of $9 million for Project Work Orders
for Fiscal Year 2014-15. The City is under no obligation to use the
Master Professional Services Agreements.
RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended by Engineering Services that
the Council, by resolution, authorize staff to execute Project Work Orders
under Master Professional Services Agreements executed in 2011, 2012
and 2013 with a cumulative not to exceed sum of $9 million for Fiscal
Year 2014-15, subject to Council approval of the Proposed Fiscal Year

12.7 REPORT - ALCOHOL USE IN PARKS, PARK SPECIAL USE PERMITS,
AND PARK FACILITY RESERVATIONS AND PERMITS
BACKGROUND: Municipal Code 13.24.050 and 13.24.060 provides the
policies for the possession or consumption of alcoholic beverages in City
parks. It is illegal to consume alcohol in a neighborhood park, unless an
alcohol permit is issued in conjunction with a permit for a reservation in
that park, which is date and time specific. The fees for park special use
permits are based on the number of people attending, and fees for
facilities vary, including hourly and daily “flat” fees.
The West End Neighborhood Association has requested that the
Department issue them permits to consume alcohol at DeMeo Park, a
neighborhood park, for social gatherings on recurring dates. Either a
park special use permit or a facility reservation permit allow staff to issue
an alcohol permit, at no additional charge, in conjunction with the permit.
City of Santa Rosa
Regular Meeting Agenda and Summary Report
Page 15 of 22
CITY COUNCIL JUNE 17, 2014
For the upcoming Budget Hearing, staff has proposed two updated fees
for City Council consideration that are in direct response to the DeMeo
situation. Staff has proposed a new category for groups 25 or less and a
fee of $25, and, staff has proposed a fee of $5 per day for the bocce
courts at DeMeo Park. These proposed changes can be equitably
administered by staff. Changes to the Recreation and Parks Fee
Schedule can be adopted by resolution at the upcoming Budget Hearing.
Any changes contemplated for the municipal code will require additional
staff preparation.
RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended by the Department of
Recreation and Parks that the Council accept this report and provide staff
with direction regarding alcohol policies and permits in City parks.
