15. REPORT ITEMS
15.1 REPORT - AMENDMENT TO THE MEASURE O IMPLEMENTATION
PLAN FOR ALL PROGRAMS TO ALIGN WITH FISCAL YEAR 2019-20
ADOPTED BUDGET
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 percent to fund specific Police, Fire, and Gang
Prevention/Intervention programs, as set forth in the Ordinance.
An Implementation Plan was created on September 21, 2004, by
Resolution No. 26069, which outlines the uses and purposes for which
the special tax revenues may be used over time. The Implementation
Plan has been revised several times since the original plan was
adopted in 2004. In order to amend the Implementation Plan, the
Ordinance requires six affirmative votes of the Council.
On November 10, 2015, the City Council approved a new format for the
Implementation Plan, consisting of current and forecast budget amounts
for all Measure O programs. This new Implementation Plan forecasts
Measure O program budgets through Fiscal Year 2024-25.
RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended by the Finance, Police, Fire,
Recreation and Parks Departments, the Office of Community
Engagement and the Measure O Citizens’ Oversight Committee that the
Council, by Resolution, amend the Transaction and Use Tax
Implementation Plan to adjust for Fiscal Year 2019-20 budget and
forecasted budget amounts for all Measure O programs.

15.2 REPORT - AWARD OF PROFESSIONAL SERVICES AGREEMENT
WITH COASTLAND CIVIL ENGINEERING, INC. TO PERFORM FIRE
CODE PLAN REVIEW AND INSPECTION TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE
SERVICES
BACKGROUND: In 2018 after the retirement of our long-time Building
Plans Examiner, the Fire Department reclassified the Building Plans
Examiner position to a Fire Protection Engineer in an effort to prepare
for the increase in technical cannabis operations as well as the
redevelopment of the downtown area with the construction of multiple
mid-rise and high-rise structures. Unfortunately, we were not successful
in our recruitment due to a lack of qualified candidates and thus
underfilled the position back to a Building Plans Examiner to allow our
Plan Review Division to keep pace with the growing workload. The Fire
Department has found it necessary to enter into an agreement with a
consultant firm to allow the department the ability to send out a portion
of the projects that require longer plan review times. These projects are
typically more complex, which affects our ability to meet established
turnaround times when keeping them in-house.
RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended by the Fire Department that
the Council, by Resolution, approve a Professional Services Agreement
with Coastland Civil Engineering, Inc. of Santa Rosa, CA to provide Fire
Code plan review and inspection technical assistance services in an
amount not to exceed $800,000.

15.3 REPORT - AMEND URGENCY ORDINANCES RESILIENT CITY (-RC)
COMBINING DISTRICT
BACKGROUND: Due to high volumes of construction activity within the
rebuilding areas and the impacts created by locally sourced materials
such as concrete, the construction community has found it difficult at
times to maintain a strict adherence to set construction schedules. The
first year of the rebuild has shown that concrete pours for foundations
may need to occur prior to 7:00 a.m. during times of significant regional
concrete demand. Additionally, exterior activities such as framing may
need to occur in the evening or early morning hours to reduce heat
exposure during high temperature events. PED is requesting that the
City Manager, or his or her designee, be granted the authority to extend
the construction hours from 7:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. Monday through
Saturday to 5:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m., Monday through Friday, when it is
determined that certain activities are critical to an expedient rebuild
must occur outside of the standard hours.
RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended by the Planning and
Economic Development Department that the Council adopt an urgency
ordinance, by five affirmative votes, to amend Section 20-28.100 of the
Santa Rosa City Code, -RC Combining District, to exempt construction
activities associated with the rebuilding efforts from adherence to the
City’s Noise Ordinance as described in Chapter 17-16 of the City Code
and establish specific construction hours that may be modified by the
City of Santa Rosa

16. PUBLIC HEARINGS
16.1 PUBLIC HEARING - (CONTINUED FROM MAY 7 AND MAY 28th,
2019, REGULAR MEETING) ROSELAND VILLAGE MIXED USE
PROJECT. APPEAL OF PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION ON THE
TENTATIVE MAP AND DENSITY BONUS FOR THE PLANNED
ROSELAND VILLAGE MIXED USE PROJECT LOCATED AT 665 & 883
SEBASTOPOL ROAD, SANTA ROSA ASSESSOR’S PARCEL
NUMBERS 125-101-031 & 125-111-037. FILE NUMBER: PRJ17-075;
MAJ17-006; DB19-001
BACKGROUND: On February 28, 2019, the Planning Commission
approved the Roseland Village Tentative Map and Density Bonus by
voting 6 ayes, 0 noes, and 1 absent. The Tentative Map would
subdivide a 7.41-acre site into five lots, require subdivision
infrastructure improvements, and establish public and private street
circulation to accommodate the planned future development of three
apartment buildings with 175 units, including 75 affordable units, a
25,000 square foot civic building, a 5,000 square foot market place, and
a 1-acre public plaza. The Density Bonus allows a 34% increase in
residential density and three incentives/concessions which allow
phased development of the affordable units within a separate apartment
building, and grant an 18 percent parking reduction. The planned
Roseland Village Mixed Use project including Design Review of
individual buildings and the plaza within Roseland Village will occur at a
future date to be determined. The appeal asserts the Planning
Commission’s action is contrary to a private easement in that the
approved Tentative Map eliminates access across the back of the
neighboring Roseland Village Shopping Center; the Density Bonus
allows housing units which is contrary to the private recorded easement
and is against requirements affordable housing be incorporated within
and constructed simultaneously; and the project will eliminate over 270
currently available parking spaces to 70 spaces. PRJ17-075;
MAJ17-006, DB19-001.
RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended by the Planning and
City of Santa Rosa
Regular Meeting Minutes
Page 13 of 17
City Council Regular Meeting Minutes - Final June 25, 2019

resolutions, deny the appeal by Robert Paulsen and uphold the

15. REPORT ITEMS
15.1 REPORT - AMENDMENT TO THE MEASURE O IMPLEMENTATION
PLAN FOR ALL PROGRAMS TO ALIGN WITH FISCAL YEAR 2019-20
ADOPTED BUDGET
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 percent to fund specific Police, Fire, and Gang
Prevention/Intervention programs, as set forth in the Ordinance.
An Implementation Plan was created on September 21, 2004, by
Resolution No. 26069, which outlines the uses and purposes for which
the special tax revenues may be used over time. The Implementation
Plan has been revised several times since the original plan was
adopted in 2004. In order to amend the Implementation Plan, the
Ordinance requires six affirmative votes of the Council.
On November 10, 2015, the City Council approved a new format for the
Implementation Plan, consisting of current and forecast budget amounts
for all Measure O programs. This new Implementation Plan forecasts
Measure O program budgets through Fiscal Year 2024-25.
RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended by the Finance, Police, Fire,
Recreation and Parks Departments, the Office of Community
Engagement and the Measure O Citizens’ Oversight Committee that the
Council, by Resolution, amend the Transaction and Use Tax
Implementation Plan to adjust for Fiscal Year 2019-20 budget and
forecasted budget amounts for all Measure O programs.

15.2 REPORT - AWARD OF PROFESSIONAL SERVICES AGREEMENT
WITH COASTLAND CIVIL ENGINEERING, INC. TO PERFORM FIRE
CODE PLAN REVIEW AND INSPECTION TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE
SERVICES
BACKGROUND: In 2018 after the retirement of our long-time Building
Plans Examiner, the Fire Department reclassified the Building Plans
Examiner position to a Fire Protection Engineer in an effort to prepare
for the increase in technical cannabis operations as well as the
redevelopment of the downtown area with the construction of multiple
mid-rise and high-rise structures. Unfortunately, we were not successful
in our recruitment due to a lack of qualified candidates and thus
underfilled the position back to a Building Plans Examiner to allow our
Plan Review Division to keep pace with the growing workload. The Fire
Department has found it necessary to enter into an agreement with a
consultant firm to allow the department the ability to send out a portion
of the projects that require longer plan review times. These projects are
typically more complex, which affects our ability to meet established
turnaround times when keeping them in-house.
RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended by the Fire Department that
the Council, by Resolution, approve a Professional Services Agreement
with Coastland Civil Engineering, Inc. of Santa Rosa, CA to provide Fire
Code plan review and inspection technical assistance services in an
amount not to exceed $800,000.

15.3 REPORT - AMEND URGENCY ORDINANCES RESILIENT CITY (-RC)
COMBINING DISTRICT
BACKGROUND: Due to high volumes of construction activity within the
City of Santa Rosa
Regular Meeting Agenda and Summary Report
Page 9 of 13
City Council JUNE 25, 2019
rebuilding areas and the impacts created by locally sourced materials
such as concrete, the construction community has found it difficult at
times to maintain a strict adherence to set construction schedules. The
first year of the rebuild has shown that concrete pours for foundations
may need to occur prior to 7:00 a.m. during times of significant regional
concrete demand. Additionally, exterior activities such as framing may
need to occur in the evening or early morning hours to reduce heat
exposure during high temperature events. PED is requesting that the
City Manager, or his or her designee, be granted the authority to extend
the construction hours from 7:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. Monday through
Saturday to 5:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m., Monday through Friday, when it is
determined that certain activities are critical to an expedient rebuild
must occur outside of the standard hours.
RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended by the Planning and
Economic Development Department that the Council adopt an urgency
ordinance, by five affirmative votes, to amend Section 20-28.100 of the
Santa Rosa City Code, -RC Combining District, to exempt construction
activities associated with the rebuilding efforts from adherence to the
City’s Noise Ordinance as described in Chapter 17-16 of the City Code
and establish specific construction hours that may be modified by the
City Manager when needed to support a timely rebuilding process.

NUMBERS 125-101-031 & 125-111-037. FILE NUMBER: PRJ17-075;
MAJ17-006; DB19-001
BACKGROUND: On February 28, 2019, the Planning Commission
approved the Roseland Village Tentative Map and Density Bonus by
voting 6 ayes, 0 noes, and 1 absent. The Tentative Map would
subdivide a 7.41-acre site into five lots, require subdivision
infrastructure improvements, and establish public and private street
circulation to accommodate the planned future development of three
apartment buildings with 175 units, including 75 affordable units, a
25,000 square foot civic building, a 5,000 square foot market place, and
a 1-acre public plaza. The Density Bonus allows a 34% increase in
residential density and three incentives/concessions which allow
phased development of the affordable units within a separate apartment
building, and grant an 18 percent parking reduction. The planned
Roseland Village Mixed Use project including Design Review of
individual buildings and the plaza within Roseland Village will occur at a
future date to be determined. The appeal asserts the Planning
Commission’s action is contrary to a private easement in that the
approved Tentative Map eliminates access across the back of the
neighboring Roseland Village Shopping Center; the Density Bonus
allows housing units which is contrary to the private recorded easement
and is against requirements affordable housing be incorporated within
and constructed simultaneously; and the project will eliminate over 270
currently available parking spaces to 70 spaces. PRJ17-075;
MAJ17-006, DB19-001.
RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended by the Planning and
Economic Development Department that the Council, by two
resolutions, deny the appeal by Robert Paulsen and uphold the
Planning Commission’s action approving the Roseland Village Project
Tentative Map and Density Bonus.
