Submitting a letter would be a fallback option, he said. He added that upon a 4/5 vote of the Council, an urgency item (i.e. an urgent matter that came to the attention of Council since the publication of the agenda) could be placed on the agenda that would satisfy the change in action requested.

AYES: COUNCIL MEMBERS: BURNETT; HAZDOVAC; SHARP & McCLOUD
NOES: COUNCIL MEMBERS: NONE
ABSENT: COUNCIL MEMBERS: TALMAGE
ABSTAIN: COUNCIL MEMBERS: NONE

CITY COUNCIL: Resolution Authorizing Establishment of a Cooperative Purchasing Agreement for Grid Pruning Project & Award Contract to West Coast Arborists, Inc.

Meeting Date: October 5, 2010
Prepared by: Mike Branson

City Council
Agenda Item Summary

Name: Consideration of a Resolution authorizing the establishment of a cooperative purchasing
agreement for a grid pruning project and award the contract for the project to West Coast Arborists, Inc. in an amount not to exceed $36,979.

Description: Grid pruning, which involves safety and structural pruning of public trees, is a Forestry Division project for FY 2010-2011. It was budgeted in the amount of $36,979. A cooperative purchase agreement, based on the competitive bid process and awarded contract for tree maintenance by the City of Monterey to West Coast Arborists, Inc., will provide the City of Carmel-by-the-Sea with an efficient, lowcost resource for tree pruning and related services.
Overall Cost:

City Funds: $36,979

Grant Funds: None

Staff Recommendation: Adopt a Resolution approving a cooperative purchasing agreement for a grid pruning project and award the contract for the project to West Coast Arborists, Inc. in an amount not to exceed $36,979.

Important Considerations: West Coast Arborists, Inc. has worked for Carmel-by-the-Sea and other local cities including Monterey, Salinas, Pacific Grove, and Soledad. The rates and terms that WCA has offered to Carmel are based on the City of Monterey’s “Tree Maintenance Open End Contract” now in effect. Cooperative purchase agreements and contract awards for public works projects are allowed under Municipal Code Sections 3.12.170 and 3.12.430.

Decision Record: The City Council authorized a similar contract under a cooperative purchase
agreement with West Coast Arborists Inc. in FY 2009-2010.

STAFF REPORT
TO: MAYOR McCLOUD AND COUNCIL MEMBERS
THROUGH: RICH GUILLEN, CITY ADMINISTRATOR
FROM: GEORGE E.RAWSON, PUBLIC SAFETY DIRECTOR
DATE: SEPTEMBER 20, 2010
SUBJECT: CONSIDERATION OF A RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING PARTICIPATION IN A MULTIAGENCY AGREEMENT FOR THE MAINTENANCE AND OPERATION OF A COUNTY-WIDE MOBILE DATA COMMUNICATION SYSTEM IN THE AMOUNT OF $2,760

RECOMMENDED MOTION:
Adopt the Resolution.

BACKGROUND:
In January 2010, City Council approved a Resolution accepting Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA)/Assistance to Firefighters grant funds to participate in a County-wide Mobile Data Communication System (MDCS). The FEMA grant paid for expenses associated with procuring and installing two Mobile Data Computers (MDCs) on City fire apparatus. The Fire Department’s ability to have ongoing participation in this project requires Council approval so that City staff may execute multi agency agreements pertaining to governance and cost sharing.

STAFF REVIEW:
The agreements relating to governance and cost-share criteria authorize the Monterey County Emergency Communications Users Advisory Committee (ECUAC) as the governing authority for the MDCS system. Provisions within the agreements specify system-wide operating and maintenance costs are determined based on how many agency devices access the MDCS system infrastructure or
software application.

The ECUAC appointed a Mobile Data Subcommittee to consider policy, funding, and technical issues related to the MDCS. Upon signing of the agreement, the City is assured one voting position (by a fire representative) on the Subcommittee.

The scope of responsibility assigned to the Subcommittee includes policy, funding, and technical related recommendations to the ECUAC for action. Monterey County will be the administering agency responsible for maintaining and operating the MDCS in a manner that ensures compliance to all applicable federal, state, and local laws, rules, and regulations.

FISCAL IMPACT:
Yearly recurring cost: $ 2,760 ($115/month per device)
Funds for this project were included in the Fire Department FY 2010-11 adopted budget.

SUMMARY:
Approving the attached Resolution supports the Fire Department’s ability to access automated information systems to enhance response time, and other valuable information relating to fire operational effectiveness.

CITY COUNCIL: Resolution Authorizing Payment of $98,326.04 for Construction of Pathway on San Antonio Avenue between Carmel/Pebble Beach Gate & Fourth Avenue

Meeting Date: October 5, 2010
Prepared by: Rich Guillen

City Council
Agenda Item Summary

Name: Consideration of a Resolution authorizing a payment of $98,326.04 for the construction of the pathway on San Antonio Avenue between the Carmel/Pebble Beach Gate and Fourth Avenue.

Description: The Pebble Beach Company hired Pavex Construction to construct a pathway between the Carmel/Pebble Beach Gate and Fourth Avenue in time for the 2010 U.S. Open Golf Championship. The work was completed, except for the landscape installation. The City and Pebble Beach Company agreed to divide the cost of this Phase I project 50/50. Now, Phase II of the project is under way, which includes a stairway access to the beach and a boardwalk and will continue the pathway from Fourth Avenue to Carmel Beach.

Overall Cost:
City Funds: $98,326.03 (Capital Reserve Fund)
Grant Funds: $0

Staff Recommendation: Adopt the Resolution.

Important Considerations: During the AT&T Golf Tournament in February, San Antonio Avenue is commonly used as a pedestrian access. This poses a risk to pedestrians, given the large amount of vehicular traffic on San Antonio. For many years, a better pathway has frequently been discussed to improve pedestrian safety for this portion of San Antonio. Since the U.S. Open was held at Pebble Beach this past June and better pedestrian access was needed, Pebble Beach
Company and staff collectively agreed to construct the existing pathway.

Decision Record: The pathway plan was presented to the City Council by the Pebble Beach Company. The City Council provided policy direction to move forward on the plan, including completing Phase I in time for the U.S. Open.

City Council
Agenda Item Summary

Name: Consideration of a Resolution approving one of the City’s free use days at the Sunset
Center Theater for the 2010 Carmel Authors and Ideas Festival held from September 24-26, 2010.

Description: The organizers of the Carmel Authors and Ideas Festival requested one of the City’s free use days at the Sunset Theater for the 2010 event that ran from September 24-26. Last year, the Council approved use of the theater for the event. This year, the request was inadvertently not placed on a Council agenda in time for the event.

CITY COUNCIL: Resolution Authorizing Allocation & Expenditure of California Citizens' Option for Public Safety (COPS) Grant Funds

Meeting Date: October 5, 2010
Prepared by: Sgt. Mel Mukai

City Council
Agenda Item Summary

Name: Consideration of a Resolution authorizing the allocation and expenditure of the California Citizens’ Option for Public Safety (COPS) grant funds for Fiscal Year 2011-2012.

Description: State Senate Bill (SB 76) provides the City of Carmel-by-the-Sea a $100,000
allocation in grant funds under a public safety grant known as the California Citizens’
Option for Public Safety (COPS). The total cost for one police officer position, including
salary and benefits, exceeds the grant allocation. Consequently, the officer’s annual
compensation must be funded in part by local funds.

Overall Cost:
FY 11-12
City Funds: $ 8,525 or less
Grant Funds: $ 100,000 (plus interest)

Staff Recommendation:
Staff recommends adoption of the proposed Resolution.

Important Considerations:
Adoption of the proposed Resolution allows the funding of one police officer position that will be assigned to front-line patrol.

Decision Record:
Resolution 2009-61 approved by Council on September 1, 2009, authorizing the FY 2010-11 expenditure for COPS funds for one police officer position.

MIKE CALHOUN, COMMANDER
GEORGE E. RAWSON, PUBLIC SAFETY DIRECTOR
DATE: SEPTEMBER 21, 2010
SUBJECT: CONSIDERATION OF A RESOLUTION TO ACCEPT THE FISCAL YEAR 2011-12 CALIFORNIA’S CITIZENS’ OPTION FOR PUBLIC SAFETY (COPS) GRANT FUNDS AND APPROVE THE PROPOSED SPENDING PLAN

RECOMMENDED MOTION:
Adopt the Resolution.

BACKGROUND:
The Citizens’ Options for Public Safety (COPS) Program was signed into law by Governor Gray Davis on July 6, 2000. The COPS program established a "Supplemental Law Enforcement Special Fund” (SLESF), which annually allocates entitlement grants to cities and counties to augment public safety. The grant amounts vary, based on population. Historically, smaller communities such as Carmel-by-the-Sea receive a minimum fixed amount of $100,000.

COPS funds cannot be remitted until certain processes are completed, as required by Government Code § 30061 – 30065. These statutes require the Director of Public Safety to propose a spending plan and submit it to City Council for review.

The Council must hold a public hearing, allow for public comment, and adopt the spending plan by Resolution. After City Council ratification, the Resolution is forwarded to the County of Monterey Supplemental Law Enforcement Oversight Committee (SLEOC), which reviews and certifies that the spending plan complies with the above referenced Government code requirements. SLESF funds are restricted to front-line municipal police services and must supplement, not
supplant, current, front-line law enforcement services. Funds must be encumbered or spent within the two-year grant cycle. Any unspent funds must be remanded back to the state via the County Auditor’s office.

It is anticipated the State of California will again approve the Citizens’ Option for Public Safety (COPS) grant funds for FY 11-12. The state legislature has not yet adopted the final budget, but it is probable that the minimum awards for smaller communities will remain at or very close to $100,000. It is possible that COPS funding levels for larger agencies will be reduced, due to the state’s fiscal crisis.

Many police departments use the grant funds to pay for additional sworn police personnel. For the past five years, Carmel-by-the-Sea has used most of its COPS grant funds to pay salary and benefits of one police officer, with the residual funds used to pay for crime prevention strategies.

STAFF REVIEW:
Staff recommends the COPS grant funds be allocated to continue funding the salary and benefits of one (1) full-time police officer for FY 2011-12 which is projected to be $108,525. Because this cost exceeds the grant allocation, the city must contribute local funds, estimated to be $8,525 minus the accrued interest.

Refer to Attachment “A” for summary of cost information.

The grant-funded police officer position supports the Department’s ability to maintain and schedule adequate patrol staffing levels and prevents an already excessive overtime budget from further increases.

FISCAL IMPACT:
Revenue up to $100,000 plus accrued interest. No match is required for receipt or expenditure of this grant, but City funds in the amount of $8,525 will be budgeted in FY 11-12 to ensure one police officer position is sufficiently funded. All grant proceeds, including interest, will be deposited with the City and will be expended in accordance to grant regulations.

SUMMARY:
Utilization of the grant funds will be a benefit to the community and Police Department by enhancing police operations. Approving this Resolution allows the Police Department to expend COPS grant funds in accordance with the requirements of the grant in order to achieve the highest commitment of service to the community.

ATTACHMENT “A”
FY 11-12 COPS GRANT SPENDING PROGRAM
RECOMMENDED PROGRAMS
1) Continued funding of one (1) additional police officer position:
Continue to fund one (1) full-time police officer position to supplement FY 11-12 general
fund authorized positions. As has been the case in previous years, this will be a
“contract” position, subject to the continuation of COPS grant funding.

property.

Overall Cost:
City Funds: N/A
Grant Funds: N/A

Staff Recommendation: Deny the application.

Important Considerations: The City has not allowed the keeping of chickens within City
limits since 1969. Allowing chickens could impact the residential character of the City

DEPARTMENT OF COMMUNITY PLANNING AND BUILDING
STAFF REPORT
TO: MAYOR MCCLOUD AND COUNCIL MEMBERS
FROM: SEAN CONROY, PLNG & BLDG SERVICES MANAGER
DATE: 5 OCTOBER 2010
SUBJECT: CONSIDERATION OF A REQUEST TO AMEND MUNICIPAL CODE SECTION 6.08.120 TO ALLOW FOR THE KEEPING OF CHICKENS IN THE CITY OF CARMEL-BY-THE-SEA. THE APPLICANT IS ANNA YATEMAN

BACKGROUND & DESCRIPTION
Carmel Municipal Code (CMC) Section 6 establishes the City’s regulations regarding animals. Section 6.08.120, originally adopted in 1969, states the following:

“It is unlawful, and is declared a nuisance, for any person or persons to keep or cause to be kept any swine or barnyard fowl whatsoever within the corporate limits of the City.”

The applicant is requesting permission to keep two hens on her property. Since the keeping of chickens is prohibited, the applicant is requesting that the municipal code be amended. The applicant is also requesting that the $420 application fee be waived.

EVALUATION
Process: Staff has not prepared an ordinance amendment for Council review at this time. If the Council determines that the Municipal Code should be amended, then staff would prepare a draft ordinance for review at a future hearing. If the Council determines that the Municipal Code should not be amended, no further action is required.

Planning Commission: On 11 August 2010 the Planning Commission recommended that the Council amend the Municipal Code to allow for the keeping of chickens. The Commission recommended the following requirements be included in any new ordinance amendment:

• Require a Conditional Use Permit (CUP)
• Limit it to the keeping of hens, not roosters
• Require all fowl to be maintained in an enclosure of chicken wire or other suitable
material
• Establish a limit on the number of fowl on any one property
• Limit it to the R-1 District

Staff does not support amending the Municipal Code for the following reasons:
1) Residential Character: The City is predominately a residential village set in a forest.
However, the rustic residential character does not equate to a rural setting. With small
lots and minimal setbacks between dwellings, the neighborhoods are relatively dense for
a single-family zone. One of the primary purposes of the current standards related to
fowl is to avoid uses that are more appropriate for larger, rural lots. Allowing chickens
could lead to requests to allow other barnyard fowl and/or swine, and could result in
diminishing the residential character of the City.

2) Animal Control: Allowing chickens could attract more wild animals into the city, particularly raccoons. Raccoons already present a challenge to Carmel residents and pets, as they can be quite aggressive. If numerous residents began keeping chickens, this could result in an increase in the number of raccoons or other predators coming into the City. The City has only one part-time animal control officer, who is already heavily burdened with animal control issues. Allowing the keeping of chickens would likely add to the enforcement burden on the City.

3) Public Health: If the City began allowing chickens, and numerous residents began
keeping them, several public health concerns could arise. While staff has not performed
a thorough public health analysis, some of the common health concerns related to the
raising of chickens include:
• The transfer of bacteria, particularly Salmonella
• High levels of arsenic that can often be found in many types of chicken feed
• Potential water quality issues related to animal waste and storm water run-off
Other Communities: Some neighboring communities, including Monterey and Pacific
Grove, do allow the keeping of chickens (see attached ordinances). While these
communities have many small lots similar to Carmel, they also have many larger lots
where the keeping of chickens may be more appropriate.
The Police Department did speak with an official with the City of Pacific Grove who
indicated that they have had problems with predators, such as raccoons and skunks,
attacking chickens. They have also had incidents of chickens either escaping from a
particular property or being discarded by their owner, which creates additional animal
control issues.

Fee Waiver: The applicant has requested that the City Council waive the application fee
for this project. Staff does not support the fee waiver as there are costs involved in
amending the Municipal Code. Costs include staff time for preparing a draft ordinance,
public notices, staff reports, and other documents along with costs associated with
publishing public notices and Municipal Code amendments. If the Council directs staff
to prepare an ordinance for future review by the Council, staff recommends that the
application fee be submitted prior to any further work on this project.

RECOMMENDATION
Deny the request to amend the Municipal Code.

WILDLIFE
Monterey sea otters killed by toxic algae
September 11, 2010|By Peter Fimrite, Chronicle Staff Writer

A toxic algae that forms in reservoirs, lakes and stagnant freshwater ponds was responsible for the deaths of at least 21 threatened California sea otters in the Monterey Bay area, a scientific study revealed Friday.

The discovery, reported in the scientific journal PLoS ONE, is alarming because the toxin, called microcystin, had never been linked to the death of a marine mammal and was not believed to be capable of surviving for long periods in saltwater.

"Based on what we know, this is the first documentation of a freshwater algal bloom being transmitted to upper-level marine mammals, specifically a federally listed species," said Melissa Miller, a senior wildlife veterinarian and pathologist for the California Department of Fish and Game and the study's lead author.

The three-year average population of California otters, also known as southern sea otters, declined 3.6 percent this year, the second consecutive drop after a decade of increases. The reason for the decline is a mystery, but scientists believe a variety of causes are at play, including toxic runoff.

There are 2,711 sea otters along the California coast, according to a U.S. Geological Survey study, which also reported an 11 percent drop in the number of otter pups compared with last year.

Study points to algae
Microcystin, which is commonly referred to as blue-green algae, can cause liver damage when ingested. All 21 sea otters that tested positive for the bacteria died from liver failure, according to the study, which was completed with the help of experts from UC Santa Cruz and a variety of state and federal agencies.

It is believed the toxins flowed to the ocean off the coast of Monterey in rivers and creeks. Sea urchins and shellfish near the outflow filtered the water and the poison accumulated in their bodies, which were, in turn, eaten by otters.

It has not yet been determined whether poisoning from blue-green algae is playing a major or minor role in the overall otter decline, but it was at least a factor, the researchers said. The 21 sea otters represent only a fraction of the number of mammals found dead from unknown causes along the Central California coast since 1999. Miller said the full extent of the problem will not be known until further studies can be conducted.

Microcystis is a naturally occurring algae. Its bright green blooms have long been found behind dams, particularly along the Klamath River, and in stagnant pools.

Global concern
But researchers say the microcystin toxin appears to be multiplying in the environment to the point that it is becoming a global health concern. That's because cyanobacteria, as scientists call bacterial blooms, thrive in warm water that is rich in nutrients from lawn, city and agricultural runoff. The warmer the temperatures, the more bacteria there are

Global warming, scientists say, has increased the frequency of deadly green "super-blooms."

Microcystins have been detected in brackish water before, including in the Sacramento-San Joaquin River Delta and San Francisco Bay, scientists say. The bacteria has been linked to the death of cattle and even dogs that drank the water or swam through the green slime and then licked their fur. It is also potentially dangerous to humans.

"What's really astonishing to us is that it had not been on anyone's radar as a problem in the marine environments until now," said co-author Tim Tinker, a research biologist with the U.S. Geological Survey and an adjunct professor of ecology and evolutionary biology at UC Santa Cruz.

The problem was discovered largely by mistake. In 2007, Miller kept running across the bloated, bright yellow corpses of otters near Monterey Bay, indicating acute liver failure. She searched medical journals for things that might have caused the problem and found nothing that fit until she came across blue-green algae.

Suspicions confirmed
Tissue samples confirmed her suspicion. The team of scientists she recruited eventually found high concentrations of microcystin in lakes bordering Monterey Bay and in adjacent rivers.

Blooms were also found in Pinto Lake in Watsonville, which drains into Corralitos Creek and flows into the Pajaro River. Microcystin contamination was eventually detected in the Salinas, Pajaro and San Lorenzo rivers and in the ocean at the Santa Cruz wharf.

The study found that the algae remains extremely toxic for two weeks in the ocean and that the poison can become 107 times more concentrated in shellfish. That means it is a risk to humans who consume shellfish harvested near river mouths. There are no state or federal regulations for exposure to microcystin.

"This definitely highlights the importance of monitoring water quality," Tinker said. "Here is a toxin coming into the ocean, probably affecting a lot of species, and the first indication we have of it is the death of sea otters. It is an early warning for an emerging problem."

CITY OF CARMEL-BY-THE-SEA
STAFF REPORT
TO: MAYOR McCLOUD AND COUNCIL MEMBERS
THROUGH: RICH GUILLEN, CITY ADMINISTRATOR
FROM: MARC WIENER, ASSOCIATE PLANNER
DATE: 5 OCTOBER 2010
SUBJECT: CONSIDERATION OF RECOMMENDATIONS FROM THE WINDOW COMMITTEE AND PLANNING COMMISSION
REGARDING THE CITY’S POLICY ON RESIDENTIAL WINDOW APPLICATIONS

BACKGROUND
Window styles and materials play a vital role in the residential character of the City.
The Residential Design Guidelines strongly encourage the use of unclad wood windows
for most residential projects. With regards to window materials, Residential Design
Guideline 9.11 states, “materials other than authentic, unclad wood are appropriate only
when it can be demonstrated that the proposed material is more appropriate to the
architecture.” The Guidelines also encourage the use of natural building materials.
ISSUE
In recent years more and more applicants are requesting approval to use aluminum clad
wood windows. The Design Review Board (now dissolved), Planning Commission and
City Council have all approved aluminum clad wood windows on a number of occasions.
The approval of aluminum clad windows has typically been based on the opinion that
clad windows often appear very similar to wood aesthetically.
Recently, the Planning Commission has questioned the wisdom of approving aluminum
clad wood windows. The Commission appointed a four member Window Committee in
January 2010 to review the issue in more depth and to provide recommendations on
whether the City should approve aluminum clad wood windows. The Committee
prepared the attached report (exhibit “A”) that was presented to the Planning Commission
on 14 April 2010. The Green Building Committee reviewed the Window Committee’s
report and submitted the attached memo to the City Council (exhibit “B”).
COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATIONS
Window Committee: Regarding aesthetics, the Committee determined that when
initially installed, some aluminum clad wood windows can be difficult to distinguish

from unclad wood windows, particularly from a distance. However, the Committee has
significant concerns about the long-term appearance of the aluminum clad wood
windows.
In many instances, aluminum clad windows cannot be painted without voiding the
warranty. While some clad windows can appear very similar to wood windows when
initially installed, it is unclear how they will look in the long run as the exterior finish
may fade or degrade over time. It is questionable as to whether clad windows can easily
be repainted.
In contrast, wood windows can be varnished, oiled and/or painted regularly to maintain a
quality appearance over time. Additionally, a wood window that has been varnished or
oiled presents a natural wood-grain appearance that is not possible with an aluminum
clad window.
The Committee concluded that the Design Guidelines should remain as written and that
unclad wood windows should continue to be the preferred window material for most
projects in the City. The Planning Commission concurred with the findings and
recommendations of the Committee on 14 April 2010.
Green Building Committee (GBC): The GBC supports allowing aluminum clad wood
windows as they 1) provide home owners with options, 2) are aesthetically
indistinguishable from wood windows, and 3) are considered a low maintenance product.
COUNCIL REVIEW
The Council should review the reports from the committees and answer the following
questions:
• Should the City allow the use of aluminum clad wood windows? If yes,
• Should the Design Guidelines be amended accordingly?
The Window Committee’s report addresses a wide range of issues including cost,
maintenance, environmental factors, appearance etc. While these topics help to inform
the City Council, staff recommends that the Council’s primary focus should be on the
aesthetic aspects of wood windows versus clad windows.
RECOMMENDATION:
Provide policy direction on whether the City should allow the use of aluminum clad
wood windows.
