Proclamation
Building Safety Month — May, 2019
Whereas, our City’s continuing efforts to address the critical issues of safety, energy efficiency, water
conservation, and resilience in the built environment that affect our citizens, both in everyday life and
in times of natural disaster, give us confidence that our structures are safe and sound, and;
Whereas, our confidence is achieved through the devotion of vigilant guardians––building safety and
fire prevention officials, architects, engineers, builders, tradespeople, laborers and others in the
construction industry––who work year-round to ensure the safe construction of buildings, and;
Whereas, these guardians—dedicated members of the International Code Council—use a
governmental consensus process that brings together local, state and federal officials with expertise
in the built environment to create and implement the highest-quality codes to protect Americans in
the buildings where we live, learn, work, worship, play, and;
Whereas, the International Codes, the most widely adopted building safety, energy and fire
prevention codes in the nation, are used by most U.S. cities, counties and states; these modern
building codes also include safeguards to protect the public from natural disasters such as hurricanes,
snowstorms, tornadoes, wildland fires, floods and earthquakes, and;
Whereas, Building Safety Month is sponsored by the International Code Council, to remind the public
about the critical role of our communities’ largely unknown guardians of public safety––our local
code officials––who assure us of safe, efficient and livable buildings, and;
Whereas, “Resilient Communities Start with Building Codes” the theme for Building Safety Month
2019, encourages all Americans to raise awareness of the importance of building safe and resilient
construction; fire prevention; disaster mitigation, water safety and conservation; energy efficiency
and new technologies in the construction industry. Building Safety Month 2019 encourages
appropriate steps everyone can take to ensure that the places where we live, learn, work, worship
and play are safe and sustainable, and recognizes that countless lives have been saved due to the
implementation of safety codes by local and state agencies, and,
Whereas, each year, in observance of Building Safety Month, Americans are asked to consider
projects to improve building safety and sustainability at home and in the community, and to
acknowledge the essential service provided to all of us by local and state building departments, fire
prevention bureaus and federal agencies in protecting lives and property.
NOW, THEREFORE, I, Roland Velasco, Mayor of the City of Gilroy, State of California, do hereby
proclaim the month of May 2019 as Building Safety Month. Accordingly, I encourage our citizens to
join with their communities in participation in Building Safety Month activities.

☐ Customer Service ☐ Enhanced Public

RECOMMENDATION
Open a recruitment period to fill one Affordable Housing Representative seat on the
General Plan Advisory Committee, and one At-Large seat on the Library Bond
Oversight Committee.
BACKGROUND
Established in 2013, the General Plan Advisory Committee (GPAC) provides input and
guidance to the City throughout the General Plan update process to ensure that the interests
and values of the community are well represented in the City's new General Plan. The
Affordable Housing Representative recently appointed to the GPAC recently resigned leaving
the seat open.
The Library Bond Oversight Committee was established in 2009 to provide recommendations
concerning the use of $5 million in unspent bond proceeds for library improvements. Over a
dormant period the Committee lost two members: one Library Commission representative and
one At-Large representative.
DISCUSSION
6.B
Packet Pg. 13
The General Plan update process has been on hold and will be resuming in the near future.
Housing is a key issue in the General Plan update and a GPAC member representing affordable
housing stakeholders will be important in the remaining process.
The seven member Library Bond Oversight Committee lost two members during the course of
the last five years when the Committee was dormant. The Library Oversight Committee is being
reconvened to make recommendations concerning the use of $5 million in unspent bond
proceeds for library improvements.
CONCLUSION
Staff recommends that the City Council open a recruitment initiative to fill the Affordable
Housing Representative to the General Plan Advisory Committee, and the At-Large
Representative to the Library Bond Oversight Committee, and interview applicants at the May
20, 2018 City Council meeting. A recruitment flyer is attached.
PUBLIC OUTREACH
A thorough public outreach campaign to fill these pending vacancies is planned with flyers being
distributed through social media, the City website and electronic newsletters as well as to all of
the various partner entities of the City.

The duties of the Housing Advisory Committee include the following:
Participate in the development and/or amendment of Housing Element policies
and objectives;
Assist staff and the City Council in identifying housing needs within the
community;
Advise City Council regarding existing and potential affordable housing programs
and guidelines;
Make recommendations to City Council regarding development opportunities for
affordable housing;
The issues surrounding housing are increasing in importance and will be thoroughly
analyzed in the 2040 General Plan Update. The estimated timeframe for the adoption
of the 2040 General Plan is late 2020.
Based on the above, staff recommends the City Council create a seat on the GPAC for
a member of the Housing Advisory Committee and direct the Housing Advisory
Committee to select a member to serve on the GPAC.
ALTERNATIVES
1. The City Council may create a seat on the GPAC for a member of the Housing
Advisory Committee. This option is recommended because issues surrounding
housing are increasing in importance and will be thoroughly analyzed in the 2040
General Plan Update.
2. The City Council may decline to create a seat on the GPAC for a member of the
Housing Advisory Committee. This option is not recommended.
FISCAL IMPACT/FUNDING SOURCE
There is no fiscal impact from this proposal.
NEXT STEPS

RECOMMENDATION
Approve Parcel Map and Property Improvement Agreement No. 2019 -01 with Glen
Loma Ranch for Below Market Rate (BMR) Towncenter Development Regarding
Assessor Parcel Numbers 808-18-003 (portion), 808-19-022, and 808-19-023.
BACKGROUND
On May 19, 2014, the applicant, Glen Loma Corporation, received Tentative Map approval of a
master subdivision of approximately 359 acres, commonly known as Glen Loma Ranch Specific
Plan [Reference: Resolution No. 2014-19, TM 13-08 & Ordinance No. 2014-07, Z 14-01]
The Glen Loma Ranch Specific Plan area consists of approximately 359 acres divided into 13
parcels, under four separate ownerships. The land is comprised of gently sloped terrain with
mixed oak/riparian woodlands, coastal scrub, non-native grasslands and serpentine rock
outcrops. Reservoir Canyon Creek and Babbs Creek, traverse the site, along with two modified
drainage channels that convey storm water for peak seasonal storm events. A seasonal wetland
6.E
Packet Pg. 20
exists within the northwestern region of the project site. Ascension Solorsano Middle School and
Las Animas Elementary School exist within the Specific plan area. Roadways constructed to
serve those schools also serve the Specific Plan area.
The Specific Plan encompasses seventeen distinct residential neighborhoods with an
entitlement to develop up to 1,693 mixed-density residential units, including single-family
homes, apartments, low-income units, and senior units. The city has approved the subdivision
of ten neighborhoods (Home Ranch, Wild Chestnut, Vista Bella, Petite Sirah, Mataro,
Montonico, McCutchin Creek, Palomino, The Grove and Luchessa), totaling 661 units so far.
Vista Bella, Petite Syrah and Mataro have been built, totaling 274 units.
Ultimate development of the Specific Plan will consist of a Town Center commercial
development that includes a city fire station; a potential commercial site on the northern portion
of the Specific Plan area (“Northern Commercial Reserve”); two city park sites; community
amenities or focal points within each neighborhood; and approximately 88 acres (24 percent of
the project site) of open space and buffer areas with 6-7 miles of trails that link the
neighborhoods and tie into the existing Christmas Hill Park. A rocky knoll area with soils that
provide habitat for endangered species (serpentine soils) and an area that currently contains a
eucalyptus grove will be maintained as part of the open space.
On May 7, 2018, City Council of the City of Gilroy approved tentative map TM 17-01, granting
Glen Loma Corporation to subdivide in phases approximately 103 acres into 23 Multi-Family
Condominium Lots for up to 125 Townhouse Units, 3 Parcels for Public Facilities (a Fire Station
and Two Public Trails), 7 Private Open Space Lots and 4 Lots for Future Development on a
Property Located North of Santa Teresa Boulevard Between West Tenth Street and Miller
Avenue; APN’s: 808-18-003 (Portion); 808-19-010 (Portion), 808-19-022, 808-19-023, and 808-
19-024 (Portion), the Glen Loma Corporation c/o Tim Filice, Applicant. [Reference: Resolution
No. 2018-09, TM 17-01]
ANALYSIS
As part of the Towncenter Below Market Rate project (BMR Towncenter), within the Glen Loma
Ranch Specific Plan development, a new parcel boundary for the affordable housing BMP
project is being established through the parcel map. A portion of existing Miller Avenue runs
through the new BMR parcel boundary, which the project will realign and dedicate a new Miller
Avenue right of way alignment. The new right of way dedication also includes a new
roundabout (the Miller Ave/Luchessa roundabout). This realignment and new roundabout is
consistent with the Glen Loma Ranch Specific Plan previously adopted by Council.
The Christopher Family Partnership, A California Limited Partnership; Donald Christopher;
Donald C. Christopher; and Filice Family Estate, A California Limited Partnership are requesting
approval of BMR Towncenter Parcel Map which establishes a new parcel for the BMR
Towncenter Affordable development; Vacates a portion of the Miller Avenue; dedicates new
Miller Avenue Right-of-Way and Alignment, and enter into a Property Improvement Agreement
with the City for the construction of the project’s Public Improvements, including but not limited
to construction of the Miller Avenue realignment, West Luchessa Avenue extension, Miller/W.
Luchessa roundabout, curb, gutter, sidewalks, median islands, street paving, and utilities. As
part of the Property Improvement Agreement the developer is required to provide Faithful
6.E
Packet Pg. 21
Performance and Payment bonds of $2,770,279 for 100% of the estimated construction cost of
the improvements.
The Property Improvement Agreement 2019-01 identifies the following items as being
reimbursable by the City:
a. 24” Domestic Water Line – 840 LF. Per the City’s development fee schedule
($60/LF x 840LF) = $50,400; AND,
b. Street reimbursement from the TIF for the reimbursable portion of W.
Luchessa Ave being installed. The total of the TIF Reimbursement identified
in City of Gilroy Traffic Circulation Master Plan not to exceed an estimated
TIF reimbursement amount of $431,162.43; AND,
c. Recycled water system improvements completed by this development will not
be reimbursed until a recycled water reimbursement agreement is fully
executed with the City, and until such time as the City fully executes a
separate recycled water reimbursement agreement with the Santa Clara
Valley Water District. Recycle Water system must be installed prior to any
roadway pavement; and Recycle Water reimbursement shall not to exceed
the estimated amount of $199,047.01.
The owner/developer has confirmed the above reimbursement scope of work and
reimbursement amounts by signing Property Improvement Agreement 2019-01. The
owner/developer has paid plan check and inspection fees, submitted bonding, and insurance for
the above referenced Property Improvement Agreement and Parcel Map.
The Parcel Map is ready for Recording with Santa Clara County once approved by City Council.
ALTERNATIVES
Council has the following options with respect to this request by Glen Loma Ranch to approve
the Parcel Map and Property Improvement Agreement No. 2019-10 for Below Market Rate
(BMR) Towncenter Development Regarding Assessor Parcel Numbers 808-18-003 (portion),
808-19-022, and 808-19-023:
1. Council may approve the Parcel Map and PIA. STAFF RECOMMENDS THIS OPTION
because it will keep the project on tract. The map is also consistent with the Subdivision
Map Act and the agreement protects the City from liability. This is the same process
used for the other similar phases of the Glen Loma Ranch development.
2. Deny the request to approve the Parcel Map and PIA. STAFF DOES NOT
RECOMMEND THIS OPTON because it will cause costly and unnecessary development
delays.
FISCAL IMPACT/FUNDING SOURCE
There are no financial impacts with this Council action.
6.E
Packet Pg. 22
At a later date Staff will bring back a Notice of Acceptance which will identify reimbursement for
installation of public improvements per the PIA. Reimbursements are typically funded through
various City funding sources:
Traffic Impact Fees will be reimbursed through the TIF Fund (433)
The water line reimbursement through the Water Development Fund (436)
The installation of the recycled water line will be reimbursed using pass-through funds
between the Santa Clara Valley Water District, the City and the Developer through a
pass-through 801 account
NEXT STEPS
Once approved, the Parcel Map and PIA will be recorded with the County of Santa Clara.

The Half Pipe schedule is used to determine the front footage reimbursement to former developers for infrastructure previously installed along the
front footage of the development.
The Full Pipe schedule is used to determine the oversizing reimbursement to the developer for installing water, sewer, and storm main extensions to
sizes required by each master plan that are greater than the sizes required by the development. The oversized portion is the difference between the
master planned size for the main and the greater of the main size required by the development or the developer’s minimum responsibility for each
main.

RECOMMENDATION
Approve distribution of Community Development Block Grant and Housing Trust Fund
allocations to nonprofit agencies for public service and housing rehabilitation project s,
for Fiscal Year 2019-2020 and Fiscal Year 2020-2021, as recommended by the
Community and Neighborhood Revitalization Committee.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
On an annual basis, the City Council considers and approves funding for public services
and housing rehabilitation efforts provided by local nonprofit organizations. Available
funding sources include the federal Community Development Block Grant (“Block
Grant”) and the City of Gilroy Housing Trust Fund (“Housing Fund”). Qualifying projects
include public services and housing rehabilitation programs that benefit low and very-
low-income families and individuals.
8.A
Packet Pg. 72
The Community and Neighborhood Revitalization Committee (Committee) evaluates
and ranks applications received through a Request for Proposals process. Once this
review is completed, their recommendations are presented to the City Council for
approval.
This year’s requests will cover the City’s two-year funding cycle (FY 2019-2020 and FY
2020-2021). While $419,066 in program funding was requested, the avai lable funding at
the time of the Committee’s initial review was estimated at $396,955. The Committee’s
recommendation includes $14,200 for subsequent allocation for important services to
support fair housing and tenant-landlord counseling.
At the time the original report was prepared the Federal Department of Housing and
Urban Development (HUD) was expected to finalize the funding availability of Block
Grants prior to June 30, 2019. Since that time the City has received final notification fo
our Block Grant allocation.
This report updates a previous report (prepared for the April 15, 2019 City Council
meeting). Key information that is new or updated can be distinguished as it is
presented in italics and underline.
BACKGROUND
Prior Public Hearings
At public hearings earlier this year, on February 4 and March 4, the City Council
established funding priorities for the Block Grant and Housing Fund, respectively, for
FY20 and FY21. The Council direction included clarification that awards would be
renewed in the second year (FY21) based upon satisfactory performance in the first
year and available funds. Funding priorities were identified as:
Basic Needs
Supportive Services
Youth Services
Housing Rehabilitation
Housing Services
8.A
Packet Pg. 73
At the City Council meeting on April 15, 2019, at staff’s request, the Council opened the
item for public comment and continued it to May 6, 2019. Subsequent to the April
meeting, staff addressed concerns raised about funds that were previously unallocated
and reconvened the Committee for a special meeting. Details of the Committee’s
reconsideration of allocations are described below, under the Analysis Section.
Request for Proposals
On January 25, 2019, two Requests for Proposals (“Proposals”), in alignment with the
funding priorities, were advertised in the Gilroy Dispatch. This opportunity was also
posted on the City of Gilroy website on January 30, 2019. One Proposal requested
projects and services for low and very low-income seniors, youths, families and
individuals, consistent with the current five year Consolidated Plan that was adopted by
Council in 2015. The second Proposal requested housing rehabilitation services for low
income homeowners in Gilroy. These Proposals were due to the Purchasing Division no
later than 4:00 p.m. on February 27, 2019. Applications received as part of this process
are rated and ranked by the Committee. This process is described in more detail under
the Analysis Section.
No applications were submitted for fair housing and tenant -landlord counseling services
(which is a goal under the Council’s priority category of Housing Services). As such, the
City intends to issue a separate Proposal request for those particular services. At this
time, at least one applicant who has provided such services in the past is known to have
missed the February 27th Proposal submittal deadline.
Annual Action Plan
Aside from the competitive process through the Proposals, the City’s Annual Action
Plan provides for an allocation of $40,000, which aligns with Goal 12 of the Council-
approved Consolidated Plan. This goal states that “The City will support services at the
Gilroy Youth Center to include educational and recreational/enrichment activities. It will
also provide funding for free swim lessons and lifeguard training fo r low income youth.”
This goal is implemented by the City of Gilroy Recreation Department under two
requests: Free swim lessons and Youth Center. As these allocations are approved by
the City Council (through the Annual Action Plan), these projects are included in the
funding summary, however, were not participants in the competitive process.
Funding Amount
HUD has recently finalized the grant amounts and has informed the City of our
entitlement. However, as part of the Proposal process, it was an estimated that $78,955
would be available in Block Grant funding for public service programs and $144,364 for
8.A
Packet Pg. 74
Block Grant housing rehabilitation projects. In addition, $168,000 for public services
programs is available through the City’s Housing Trust Fund. In total, approximately
$396,955 could be distributed to qualifying projects.
On Friday, April 27, 2019, based on information from HUD, the available amount for
Block Grant funding for Public Services is anticipated to be $75,988. This represents a
reduction in what was originally estimated; The total available grant funding is adjusted
to reflect $388,352. As a result of this new information, the actions and
recommendations by the Committee (below) have been adjusted to reflect available
funding.
ANALYSIS
Review Process
In response to the Proposal process, eight applications from nonprofit agencies were
received. With the inclusion of the two non-competitive projects, a total of $419,066 in
funding was requested. As mentioned above, those applications submitted in response
to the Proposals were evaluated and ranked by the Committee members, and a
recommended allocation based on the project’s ranking is presented for Council
consideration and approval.
The Committee met four times to prepare for, discuss and score each application
received. At the first meeting on February 20, 2019, staff provided Committee members
with an orientation about the grant funding cycle, including key dates and anticipated
actions.
On March 20, 2019, an overview of the agency intervie w process was presented to
Committee members as well as audience members. Nonprofit applicants presented
their funding requests and answered Committee questions about their proposals.
Originally, the Committee conducted a meeting on March 27, 2019 to complete the
review process. Committee members rated and ranked each application, pursuant to
the established evaluation criteria. For applicants that had applied for such funding in
the previous year, their performance (between July 2018 through December 2018 ) was
considered. Each request was scored and ranked based on the ability to meet each
criterion, or rating factor. Funding allocation recommendations for each request are
based on the final ranking and funding availability.
Following the April 15th City Council meeting, a Special Meeting of the Committee was
convened to provide the Committee with an opportunity to allocate available funding as
desired. At that meeting, on April 24, 2019, staff presented the available funding
opportunities and described the maximum amounts under each of the three categories.
It was also clarified that allocations may not be carried over from one category to
8.A
Packet Pg. 75
another. As stated previously, the Block Grant funding has been adjusted to more
accurately reflect the available funding. In total, an estimated $388,352 is available, as
follows:
Housing Fund Block Grant/Public
Services
Block
Grant/Housing
Rehabilitation
GRAND TOTAL
$ 168,000 $ 75,988 $ 144,364 $ 388,352
As a result of the Special Meeting, the Committee’s final reco mmendation for allocations
is provided in the revised table, under Project Ranking, below.
Project Ranking and Allocations
Although the requested amounts from all applications exceeds the availability of funds,
the Committee nonetheless supports allocation of funds to all eight applications
received. Based on their ranking, some projects received support for the full amount
requested, and some received a portion of the requested amount.
At the Special Meeting on April 24th, no changes were made to the Committee’s original
ranking of proposed projects. The Committee took action to retain the previous
allocations recommended for Housing Fund projects. However, an additional $755
under Block Grant funding was identified by staff as previously unallocated; this amount
was added to the Compassion Center’s Homeless Day Care Project.
The Committee’s action also included allocating $14,200 of Housing Fund for needed
fair housing and tenant-landlord services. It was understood that this would be
addressed through a Proposal to follow. Therefore, all available funding, inclusive of
Block Grant/Public Service funding adjustments, is now recommended for allocations,

ALTERNATIVES
1. The City Council may approve the funding distribution of Community
Development Block Grant and Housing Trust Fund allocations to nonprofit
agencies for public service and housing rehabilitation projects, for FY20 and
FY21, as recommended by the Community and Neighborhood Revitalization
Committee. Approval of this funding will enable low and very low-income families
and individuals to benefit from public services and housing repair and
rehabilitation efforts. As such, this action is recommended.
2. The City Council may elect not to approve the funding recommendations. Since
there is no other funding available for low income public services and housing
rehabilitation and repair programs, not approving these funding allocations will
result in these services not being made available to low income households in
the City of Gilroy. As such, this action is not recommended.

ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT
Each project funded by Block Grant will undergo a Federal National Environmental
Protection Act (NEPA) review prior to the release of funds.
FISCAL IMPACT/FUNDING SOURCE
Block Grant funds are allocated by the federal HUD on an annual basis. Block Grant
funding for year one of the city’s two-year budget cycle will be determined in the current
federal budgeting process for FY20. The budget for the federal Block Grant program for
each year could be increased, decreased or not funded based on Congressional budget
appropriations and final federal Block Grant budget approvals.
The Housing Fund is a local City of Gilroy fund utilized to support affordable housing
loans, programs and related services. Housing Fund is replenished as loans provided to
low-income homebuyers are repaid. Sufficient funds are available for the recommended
awards.
NEXT STEPS
Upon City Council approval of Block Grant and Housing Fund amounts for public
services and housing rehabilitation, staff will prepare the Draft FY20 Annual Action Plan
for forwarding the County Office of Supportive Housing. The County will thensubmit to
HUD for final review and approval. Upon HUD’s final approval, the City of Gilroy Block
Grant program funds will be available and effective as of July 1, 2019 thru June 30,
2020.
PUBLIC OUTREACH
The public notice for this item was published in the Gilroy Dispatch on March 15, 2019.

Brief Project Description: The mission of the Long-Term Care Ombudsman program (LTCOP) is to .seek resolution of
problems and advocate for the rights ofresidents oflong term care facilities. As independent advocates, these state-certified
LTC Ombudsmen provide services with respect for human dignity and the individuality of the resident without
discrimination. They ensure that residents are aware of their rights, including the right to shape their own long term care
experience. The LTC Ombudsmen will .help residents of Gilroy long term care facilities to address the root cause of
individual and/or systemic problems and also fundamentally change the way people and systems work. The regular visits
•ide residents with the opportunity to develop personal and confidential relationships and to create a safe environment for
,ing their concerns. During these visits the LTC Ombudsmen identify, receive, investigate, and resolve complaints,
including violations of personal rights and allegations of elder abuse for all residents in licensed long term care facilities in
Gilroy. They will also provide information and referrals as needed to residents, their families and facility staff. The LTCOP
is the only certified, unrestricted organization that can go into long term care facilities on behalf of a resident in the County.
Unlike any other agency, the program has unimpeded legal and confidential access to residents in these facilities 24/7.

RECOMMENDATION
a) Motion to read the ordinance by title only.
b) Introduce an Ordinance Promoting the Right to do Business in Downtown and
Promulgating Deed Notifications as a Condition of Discretionary Development
Permits and Transfers of Property
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Residential and commercial uses sometimes conflict resulting in costly court battles and
wasted time for code enforcement officials, city staff, and all parties involved.
A stated ordinance outlining the City Council’s position to protect business interests and
outline procedures to help resolve disputes may add value to downtown businesses, the
City of Gilroy, and residents. The proposed ordinance is attached to this report.
8.B
Packet Pg. 90
BACKGROUND
Over the last several months, the City Council has provided direction for staff to pursue
a variety of economic development related activities and, in a broader view, expressed
an interest in expanding the City's overall economic development role.
During the November 26th, 2018 Study Session on Economic Development, the City
Council directed staff to look into a means of promoting the right for downtown
businesses to conduct business. Staff has reviewed policies f rom other cities and
downtown association and working with the City Attorney has prepared a draft
ordinance for the Council’s review.
Staff has reviewed policies from other cities and the California Downtown Association.
Working with the City Attorney, staff had prepared a draft ordinance for the Council’s
review. During the March 4, 2019 City Council meeting, staff presented a conceptual
ordinance for promulgating deed notifications as a condition of discretionary
development permits and transfers of property. Council provided staff with direction to
proceed with drafting a formal ordinance for the City Council to consider.
As the recommended ordinance is located within the Zoning Ordinance, the Planning
Commission reviewed the draft ordinance during the regularly scheduled meeting on
April 4, 2019. The Planning commission recommends consideration by the City
Council.
ANALYSIS
Residential and commercial uses sometimes conflict resulting in costly court battles and
wasted time for residents, small business owners, code enforcement officials, city staff,
and all parties involved. A stated ordinance outlining the City Council’s position to
protect business interests and outline procedures to help resolve disputes may add
value to downtown businesses, the City of Gilroy, and residents.
Such an ordinance would help primarily by avoiding the use of the court system to
resolve conflicts. The proposed mechanism to resolve disputes is a waiver/deed
restriction that residents would have to sign if they are moving into the downtown. The
waiver would outline dispute resolution steps. Staff anticipates an ordinance to promote
downtown businesses and creating deed restrictions would have the following
purposes:
• State the intention of the Council to protect business operations in downtown
• Set expectations of property owners, tenants, residents, and users that the
downtown is a vibrant activity center that may not be conducive to a quite
living situation
• Promote a good neighbor policy between uses
8.B
Packet Pg. 91
• Encourage the use of mediation and dispute resolution rather than expensive
court proceedings
• Promote ongoing communication
The proposed ordinance would be implemented by way of the following logistics:
• Any permit relating to property located in downtown, as a condition of approval,
each parcel owner shall record a notification deed outlined in the city code.
The notification must also be adopted in any subsequent leases and
transfers.
• The notice provided is intended to advise property owners, tenants and users of
property within the downtown the inherent impacts and inconveniences
associated with purchase, tenancy or use of property in the downtown.
• The ordinance adopted would have the specific language for the proposed
“Notice of right to downtown operations”
• The ordinance would state that “properly operated downtown operations are not
a nuisance under California Civil Code Section 3479”
• The ordinance would stipulate dispute resolution mechanisms.
• Every developer or property or business owner in the downtown would be
required as a condition of approval to provide contact information for a
community liaison.
The proposed ordinance affects the entire downtown area encompassed within a
series of streets that serve as the border of this area. Generally, portions of Forest
Street, Alexander Street, the Union Pacific Railroad line, and the alley between
Alexander and Railroad Streets create the western boundary. Luchessa Avenue, the
extension of Banes Lane, and the Princevalle Drain create the southern boundary.
Along the eastern perimeter are Monterey Street, Tecate Lane, Eigleberry Street,
the alley between Church and Eigleberry, Seventh Street, Dowdy Street, Sixth
Street, and Church Street. Finally, Welburn Avenue and Leavesley Road, inclusive
of all corner properties at the intersection of Monterey Street, form the northern
perimeter of this area, which is illustrated in Figure 1 below:
Figure 1: Downtown Gilroy Specific Plan
8.B
Packet Pg. 92
ALTERNATIVES
1. Introduce the proposed City of Gilroy Ordinance for Promoting the Right to do
Business in Downtown Gilroy. STAFF RECOMMENDS THIS OPTION. As
stated above in the analysis section such an ordinance would potentially avoid
conflict between residential and commercial uses.
2. Do not introduce the proposed City of Gilroy Ordinance for Promoting the Right
to do Business in Downtown Gilroy. STAFF DOES NOT RECOMMEND THIS
OPTION.
FISCAL IMPACT/FUNDING SOURCE
No fiscal impact or funding source has been identified. If the council directs staff to bring
back an ordinance for consideration of adoption, then it would require staff time.
CONCLUSION
An Ordinance for Promoting the Right to do Business in Downtown Gilroy would declare
the intention of the Council to protect business operations in downtown while also being
considerate of residents in the downtown area. It would also outline procedures for staff
to promulgate deed notifications for any future residential development.
NEXT STEPS
Schedule a second reading for adoption during the regularly scheduled City Council
meeting on May 20th, 2019.
If approved, staff will introduce the proposed Ordinance for Promoting the Right to do
Business in Downtown Gilroy. Staff will notice residents and businesses as well as
schedule a public hearing.

PUBLIC OUTREACH
In order to formulate a balanced approach with broad based community support, staff
has collaborated with the Downtown Business Association, the California Downtown
Association, and the Chamber of Commerce, and has also conducted outreach with
residential property managers in the downtown area.
This meeting and agenda items were posted to the City’s webpage and property
managers within the downtown were notified.

RECOMMENDATION
Approve the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Annual Action Plan for
Fiscal Year 2019-2020.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The City’s five-year Consolidated Plan is a requirement of receiving Community
Development Block Grant (Block Grant) funds from the federal Department of Housing
and Urban Development (HUD). The current 5-Year Consolidated Plan spans calendar
years 2015-2020 or FY16 to FY20. The City Council at its February 2, 2015 meeting
approved a set of priorities to include in the development of the Consolidat ed Plan and
commensurate Action Plans.
Developing an Annual Action Plan (Action Plan) for each of the fiscal years within the
Consolidated Plan is also required. Action Plans program the use of federal funding for
their respective fiscal year. The City of Gilroy elects to include the use of Housing Trust
Fund (Housing Trust) dollars in its Action Plan.
8.C
Packet Pg. 95
The City Council is also considering approval of FY20 and FY21 distributions for public
service and housing rehabilitation services grants at its May 6, 2019 meeting. The
FY20 recommended distributions are reflected in the draft Action Plan.
FY20 represents year five of the current Consolidated Plan. The Action Plan for FY20 is
being submitted to Council for their review and approval.
BACKGROUND
The Consolidated Plan describes the City’s affordable housing and non -housing
community development needs, resources and priorities for the period of July 1,
2015 to June 30, 2020. Through an extensive public outreach process and
evaluation of needs in the community, the City has identified twenty-two goals it
wishes to address within the five-year period of the Consolidated Plan and
includes a list of City goals for Block Grant and Housing Trust expenditures.
HUD has announced FY20 federal Block Grant amounts. Gilroy will receive a
total Block Grant allocation for FY20 of $476,592, approximately a 4% reduction
from the FY18-19 Block Grant amount of $496,369. (The City received allocation
notification subsequent to the City Council meeting on April 15, 2019.) During
FY20, the City is expected to receive an estimated $30,000 in Block Grant
program income from various sources (such as past housing rehabilitation loan
repayments and rents from the City-owned Cherry Blossom building). In
alignment with the City Council approved priorities and ongoing community
development needs, the City proposes to allocate the total anticipated available
funding of $506,592 ($476,592+$30,000) as follows:
1. $ 75,988 for public services
2. $101,318 for program administration
3. $7,700 for code enforcement
4. $144,364 for the Home Access Program to be administered by the non-profit
Building Together.
5. $177,222 for capital projects in the Neighborhood Revitalization Strategy Area.
In alignment with the City Council approved two-year budget, the City expects to
expend in FY20 $168,000 in Housing Trust funds for housing related programs and
services. Examples include, homeless prevention, Meals on Wheels and the Downtown
Streets Team. Fair housing assistance, tenant landlord counseling and mediation
services is anticipated be funded by a separate Request for Proposals (RFP) issued in
early FY20.
ALTERNATIVES
8.C

1. The City Council may approve the draft Annual Action Plan for FY20 regarding
use of Block Grant and Housing Trust revenue for submittal to Santa Clara
County who will submit the Action Plan to HUD for final review and approval. The
Council action will initiate steps necessary for HUD approval that will provide
benefits to low and very low-income families and individuals in the community. As
such, this action is recommended.
2. The City Council may elect not to approve the draft Annual Action Plan for FY20.
Without approval of the Annual Action Plan, the grant funds and its benefits for
City of Gilroy low and very low-income community will not be provided. As such,
this action is not recommended.
ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT

Plan was released for the HUD-mandated 30-day public comment period, both on April
5, 2019. Any comments received by May 5, 2019 will be incorporated into the final draft
submitted to HUD for its review.

Executive Summary
AP -05 Executive Summary - 24 CFR 91.200(c), 91.220(b)
1. Introduction
Annually, HUD allocates a series of grants to local jurisdictions for community
development activities. The City of Gilroy is an entitlement jurisdiction (cities with a
population above 50,000 people, a requirement to receive these entitlement grants). As
such, the City is subject to Title I of the National Affordable Housing Act which
mandates that jurisdictions prepare a five-year Consolidated Plan. That Plan identifies
local community development needs and sets forth a strategy to address these needs
over a five-year period. The Consolidated Plan must address both affordable housing
and non-housing related community development needs. The needs are targeted to low
and very low-income persons and/or who reside low-income areas.
Also required is the need to prepare an Annual Action Plan (AAP) for each of the five
years included in the five-year Consolidated Plan. This next CDBG program year, Fiscal
Year 2019-2020 (HUD Program Year 2019), represents the fifth year of the current City
Council adopted five-year Consolidated Plan. This FY 19 AAP will address how the City
of Gilroy plans to address the strategies listed in the Consolidated Plan for the period of
July 1, 2019 - June 30, 2020. Although funding amounts have not been released, the
City anticipates a CDBG allocation for this fiscal year of approximately $476,592 as well
as an additional $30,000 in Program Income, and $168,000 in HTF funds.
Any minor changes (i.e. typos, minor edits, changes that do not affect the essence of
the document) to this Plan will be completed through a minor amendment process that
will not require further citizen participation or City Council approval. Substantial
amendments (i.e. funding changes, re-allocation of project monies, etc.) will follow the
City’s citizen participation plan, and require a public hearing and Council approval.
2. Summarize the objectives and outcomes identified in the Plan
This could be a restatement of items or a table listed elsewhere in the plan or a reference to
another location. It may also contain any essential items from the housing and homeless needs
assessment, the housing market analysis or the strategic plan.
HUD has established a set of outcomes and objectives entitlement jurisdictions need to
address. The outcomes and objectives are noted within each of the twenty-two Goals
included in the Strategic Plan (SP-45) section of the Consolidated Plan. In summary,
they are as follows:
Outcomes: Availability/Accessibility; Affordability; Sustainability
Objectives: Create suitable living environments; Provide Decent Affordable
Housing; Create Economic Opportunities

OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 07/31/2015)
The outcomes and objectives are noted within each of the twenty-two Goals included in
the Strategic Plan (SP-45) section of the Consolidated Plan. In Fiscal Year 2019-2020,
the City will address twenty of the twenty-two goals noted in the Consolidated Plan.
Details on which goals the City will address as well as how the City plans to do so are
noted in Section AP-20 “Annual Goals and Objectives” of this AAP.
3. Evaluation of past performance
This is an evaluation of past performance that helped lead the grantee to choose its goals or
projects.
A meaningful evaluation of past performance is integral to determine what has been
accomplished and what work is necessary to address the myriad of needs in the
community. This evaluation included a review of past Consolidated Plans and AAPs as
well as the successes achieved through the Neighborhood Revitalization Strategy.
Through this evaluation, the City was able to compare the needs identified through this
Consolidated Plan and compare them to the activities that have taken place in the past
to determine if those activities are still necessary. Priority needs, and goals were then
formulated to meet these needs with an eye to what has been successful in the past
and what is necessary in the future.
The City will report, in detail, on its performance in the FY 19-20 Consolidated Annual
Performance Evaluation Report (CAPER) due to HUD in September 2019. As in integral
function of preparing for the CAPER, City of Gilroy Housing and Community
Development (HCD) staff monitors financial and program performance of CDBG and
HTF funding sub-recipients on a quarterly basis. Depending upon the results of that
review, staff works with sub-recipients to achieve spending and performance objectives.
The City of Gilroy continues to meet the requirements set forth in the HUD regulations
that govern the CDBG (CDBG) program. These include thorough programmatic and
financial oversight of funded projects; appropriate budgeting and expenditure of funds
based on HUD financial requirements; and, insuring the community continues to receive
the necessary services identified through goals established in the development of the
five-year Consolidated Plan.
4. Summary of Citizen Participation Process and consultation process
Public participation plays a central role in the development of the Consolidated Plan. As
a precursor to the development of the FY 19-20 (FY 19-20) AAPs, the City Council held
a series of three Noticed, for thirty days, Public Hearings, heard citizen comments and
approved priorities for funding allocations. The priorities are incorporated into the FY
2019-2020 draft AAP.

OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 07/31/2015)
Prior to the award of public service and housing rehabilitation funds the Community and
Neighborhood Revitalization Committee (CNRC) met three times to review the planned
CDBG and HTF funding process, Council priorities and discuss the adopted rating and
ranking process for the potential applications to be submitted by non-profit agencies
wishing to receive funding. On February 4, 2019 City Council adopted CDBG priorities.
On March 4, 2019 City Council adopted HTF priorities, and on April 15, 2 019 CNRC
recommended CDBG and HTF funding allocations for non-profit provided low income
public services and a housing rehabilitation grant program.
On March 20, 2019, the CNRC conducted interviews of each applicant. Then on March
27, 2019 the Committee rated and ranked each applicant and determined
recommended funding amounts for each of the eight non-profit applicants. The CNRC’s
funding recommendations were forwarded to the City Council for draft approval of the
first of a two-year funding cycle at its April 15, 2019 Public Hearing meeting. All
meetings of the CNRC were properly noticed and opened to the public. Further, the
Committee met again on April 24, 2019 and finalized its recommendations to City
Council for CDBG and HTF funding allocations.
All public hearings were published in the Gilroy Dispatch, the local newspaper. The draft
Action Plan was made available on April 5, 2019 for public comment on the City’s
website as were public notices in English and Spanish. A hard copy of the draft Action
Plan and notices were made available at the Community Development/Planning
Counter of the City of Gilroy and at the Gilroy Public Library. The notices were also
posted at City Hall in a location reserved for public notices. The public hearings were
broadcast on Public TV Channel 17. Notices of public comment opportunities were
emailed to the following group lists: South County Collaborative, Housing Advisory
Committee, South County Homeless Task Force, and the CNRC as well as to the
applicants for funding.
The draft AAP will include all comments that are received. A public hearing with the City
Council to adopt the Action Plan will occur on May 6, 2019. Based on HUD’s
notification to the City of its FY 2019-2020 CDBG allocation, the adopted AAP may be
modified to reflect actual CDBG funding levels for FY2019-2020 based on the
contingency plan to revise funding allocations for all CDBG funded projects, programs
and public service activities on an across-the-board percentage basis.
NOTE: As of April 5, 2019, Congress and the President have not approved federal
budget for FY19, including the HUD funding for the CDBG program. Therefore, upon
HUD’s official notice to the City of Gilroy if its FY19-20 CDBG grant amount, the City
staff will revise the allocation amounts in the adopted AAP and forward that document
for HUD’s review and approval, pursuant to HUD’s instructions.

1. Introduction
The FY 19-20 AAP represents the fourth year of the five-year Consolidated Plan.
Development of the Action Plan utilized the consultative process used for the 2015 -
2020 Consolidated Plan (Consolidated Plan). The Consolidated Plan was done in
collaboration with eight entitlement jurisdictions. These jurisdictions were:
City of Cupertino
City of Gilroy
City of Mountain View
City of Palo Alto
City of Sunnyvale
City of San José
City of Santa Clara
Santa Clara Urban County
Public participation played a central role in the development of the Consolidated Plan.
The participating jurisdictions within the County launched an in -depth, collaborative
regional effort to consult with community stakeholders, elected offices, City and County
departments, and beneficiaries of entitlement programs to inform and develop the
priorities and strategies contained within the five-year plan.
The participating jurisdictions, in partnership with LeSar Development Consultants
(LDC) and MIG, Inc. (MIG), facilitated a comprehensive outreach process to enhance
coordination and discuss new approaches to working with public and assisted housing
providers, legal advocates, private and governmental health agencies, mental health
service providers, and other stakeholders that utilize funding for eligible activities,
projects, and programs.
A Regional Needs Survey was conducted to solicit input from residents and workers in
the region. Respondents were informed that participating jurisdictions were updating
their respective Consolidated Plans for federal funds that primarily serve low - and
moderate-income (LMI) residents and areas. The Regional Needs Survey polled
respondents about the level of need in their respective neighborhoods for various types
of improvements that could be addressed by entitlement funds.

A total of 1,472 survey responses were obtained from September 19, 2014 to
November 15, 2014, including 1,078 surveys collected electronically and 394 collected
via print surveys.
Provide a concise summary of the jurisdiction’s activities to enhance
coordination between public and assisted housing providers and private and
governmental health, mental health and service agencies (91.215(l))
Regional Forums
The participating jurisdictions held three regional public forums to identify housing and
community development needs and priorities for the next five years. The public forums
were conducted as part of a collaborative regional approach to help the participating
jurisdictions make data-driven, place-based investment decisions for federal funds.
Seventy-six (76) people attended the regional forums, including community members,
service providers, nonprofit representatives, and interested stakeholders.
Community Forums in Local Jurisdictions
In addition to the regional forums, several participating jurisdictions conducted public
outreach independent of the regional collaborative. The cities of San Jose and Mountain
View, and the Santa Clara Urban County, each held multiple community forums to
solicit public input on local issues, needs and priorities. The community forums were
held in tandem with the regional public forums to expand the outreach process and
gather specific place-based input. One hundred and thirty-three (133) individuals
attended the community forums, including residents, service providers, nonprofit
representatives, and interested stakeholders.
Outreach
Approximately 4,847 entities, organizations, agencies, and persons were directly
engaged via outreach efforts and asked to share materials with their beneficiaries,
partners, and contacts. These stakeholders were also encouraged to promote
attendance at the public forums and to solicit responses to the Regional Needs Survey.
Stakeholder engagement included phone calls, targeted emails, newsletter
announcements, social media posts, and personalized requests from staff of the
Entitlement Jurisdictions. Each participating jurisdiction also promoted the regional
forums and regional survey links on their respective websites and announ ced the
Consolidated Plan process through electronic mailing lists. Outreach materials and the

survey links (including materials in Spanish) were emailed to over 4,000 entities,
organizations, and persons.
Approximately 1,225 printed flyers providing public notice about the regional forums
were distributed throughout the County at libraries, recreation centers, community
meeting locations, and organizations benefiting LMI residents and areas. These flyers
were available in English and Spanish.
Print newspaper display ads also were posted in the Gilroy Dispatch (English),
Mountain View Voice (English), El Observador (Spanish), La Oferta (Spanish), Thoi Bao
(Vietnamese), Philippine News (Tagalog), World Journal (Chinese) and San Jose
Mercury News (English). In addition, an online display ad was placed in the San Jose
Mercury News to reach readers electronically.
Describe coordination with the Continuum of Care and efforts to address the
needs of homeless persons (particularly chronically homeless individuals and
families, families with children, veterans, and unaccompanied youth) and persons
at risk of homelessness.
The Santa Clara County Continuum of Care (CoC) is a multi-sector group of
stakeholders dedicated to ending and preventing homelessness in the County of Santa
Clara (County). The CoC’s primary responsibilities are to coordinate large -scale
implementation of efforts to prevent and end homelessness in the County.
In winter 2015, the CoC partnered with Destination: Home, a public-private partnership
committed to collective impact strategies to end chronic homelessness and released a
Community Plan to End Homelessness in Santa Clara County (the Plan), which outlines
a roadmap for community-wide efforts to end homelessness in the County by 2020. The
strategies and action steps included in the Plan were informed by members who
participated in a series of community summits designed to address the needs of
homeless populations from April to August 2014. The Plan identifies strategies to
address the needs of homeless persons in the County, including chronically homeless
individuals and families, families with children, veterans, and unaccompanied youth.
Additionally, it also intended to address the needs of persons at risk of homelessness.
The Plan aims to implement the following strategies: [1]
1. Disrupt systems: Develop disruptive strategies and innovative prototypes that
transform the systems related to housing homeless people.
2. Build the solution: Secure the right amount of funding needed to pr ovide housing
and services to those who are homeless and those at risk of homelessness.

3. Serve the person: Adopt an approach that recognizes the need for client -
centered strategies with different responses for different levels of need and
different groups, targeting resources to the specific individual or household.
Over the next five years, the Plan seeks to identify approximately 6,000 new housing
opportunities for the homeless, intending to house 2,518 homeless individuals, 718
homeless veterans, and more than 2,333 children, unaccompanied youth, and
homeless individuals living in families.
Members of the CoC meet on a monthly basis in various work groups to ensure successful
implementation components of the Plan’s action steps. A Community Plan Implementation
Team, which includes members of the CoC and other community stakeholders, meets quarterly
to evaluate progress toward the Plan’s goals, identify gaps in homeless services, establish
funding priorities, and pursue an overall systematic approach to address homelessness.[2]

Summary of citizen participation process/Efforts made to broaden citizen
participation
Summarize citizen participation process and how it impacted goal-setting
A comprehensive summary of the citizen participation process utilized in the
development of the five-year Consolidated Plan and this FY 19-20 AAP and
commensurate needs identified through the process is found in Appendix A: Citizen
Participation Summary. Below is a summary of the outreach efforts:
1. Regional and Community Forums: A total of 11 regional and community forums
took place to include a forum in the city of Gilroy. In total, the forums were
attended by 209 individuals representing a cross-sector of the community. This
effort included the distribution of 1,225 hardcopy surveys and eight multi-lingual
display ads in the local media. Regional Needs Survey: 4,847 entities were
directly engaged via email and survey links were posted on the entitlement
jurisdiction’s websites. Outreach was also made via Facebook and Twitter.
These efforts resulted in the return of 1,472 survey responses.
2. In addition, City staff presented a series of priorities for both public service and
community development activities identified through the citizen participation
process to the Gilroy City Council on February 4, 2019 for CDBG priorities and
March 4, 2019 for HTF priorities. The public was invited to offer comments at
those meetings which were noticed in the Gilroy Dispatch as Public Hearings. At
the March 4, 2019 Council hearing one member of the public addressed the
Council representing Gilroy Compassion Center and spoke to the need to
address sheltering for persons who are homeless considering that winter shelters
had closed for the season on that date.
The City utilized these outreach efforts to formulate the goals it wishes to achieve over
the 5-year Consolidated Plan period to include in this FY 19-20 AAP.

Introduction
The City expects to receive resources from both the federally funded CDBG (CDBG) program as well as the locally
funded Housing Trust Fund. Below is a summary of the expected resources in FY 19-20. If HUD makes any adjustments
to its allocation after this AAP is adopted, the City will revise the funding amounts for each program, project and public
service activity on an across-the-board contingency percentage basis upon formal notice from HUD of the approved FY
19-20 CDBG grant amount. As such all amounts shown in this draft AAP must be identified as estimated amounts subject
to revision.
Any adjustments will occur after funding for administrative activities (i.e., 20% of the CDBG allocation plus estimated
program income) has been set aside.

Explain how federal funds will leverage those additional resources (private, state and local funds), including a
description of how matching requirements will be satisfied
The use of local Housing Trust Fund dollars will assist the City in meeting many of the goals noted in its five -year strategic
plan. Funds will go primarily toward housing related public service programs and to assist in the administration of both
funds.
If appropriate, describe publicly owned land or property located within the jurisdiction that may be used to
address the needs identified in the plan
The city currently owns a multi-family apartment complex within the downtown area known as the Cherry Blossom
Apartments. The property includes 7 residential units (five one-bedroom units and two two-bedroom units). The City is
currently partnering with the County of Santa Clara and a local nonprofit to house two individuals in the complex. This pilot
project currently provides rental subsidies from the County and intensive case management and other support services
from the local nonprofit in order to assist the individuals in improving their health and increasing their stability. The
program will serve homeless individuals who have been involved in the criminal justice system and require the supportive
services necessary to become productive citizens of the community. The City and County will explore the potential of
expanding the program to house more individuals to include the provision of supportive services.

Describe the reasons for allocation priorities and any obstacles to addressing
underserved needs
Funding of most public services programs was based on a competitive process that
involved a Request for Proposals. Interested applicants submitting funding requests
based on the targeted priorities developed by the Cit y. Proposals were then reviewed by
the City's Community and Neighborhood Revitalization Committee (CNRC), interviews
took place of each applicant and based on both the interview and application, the CNRC
scored each applicant. Funds were distributed based on the applicants meeting the
stated priorities and funding availability. The main obstacle to this process was the
limited federal and local funding. However, the City, with the assistance of the CNRC,
made strategic investments and funded projects that could make the greatest impact t o
the ongoing needs of the community utilizing available CDBG and HTF revenue.

the boundaries of its Neighborhood Revitalization Strategy Area (NRSA) as approved
by HUD. The NRSA is an area of both low-income and minority concentration, and in
need of a higher-level investments to meet the needs of the community.

OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 07/31/2015)
Rationale for the priorities for allocating investments geographically
Based on the Choice Neighborhoods 2013 Mapping Tool provided by HUD, 30.77% of
households within the NRSA are in poverty or have extremely low incomes (30% of
county median income). The vacancy rate for this area is 7.02 % as compared to the
surrounding county rate of 4.6%. Further research showed that HUD has identified the
three combined tracts as "Qualified Census Tracts" (QCTs) for Low Income Housing
Tax Credits. To meet this designation a tract must have either a poverty rate of at least
25% or 50% or more of its householders must ha ve incomes below 60% of the county
median income. The same area is currently considered by the Small Business
Administration to be a "Historically Underutilized Business Zone" (HUB Zone). Small
businesses in such a zone have certain preferences in obtain ing federal contracts.
Further, a considerable number of homeless persons are found in the NRSA and
most of Gilroy’s providers of homeless services are located within the boundaries.
Also, the NSRA census tract has recently been identified as a potential Opportunity
Zone private investment incentive program. This program is expected to be adopted in
the new federal budget for FY 19-20 and associated federal tax reform legislation
passed by Congress and signed by the President by September 30, 2019. The
program will be administered by U.S. Treasury Department with program rules projected
to become available in 2019. The program will allow private companies to invest in
community and job creation activities within the Gilroy Opportunity Zone and in
exchange receive a federal tax credit.

Introduction
The need for affordable housing is a major issue facing the city of Gilroy. While the City
has limited to no capacity to provide direct financial support of affordable housing, there
does exist opportunities to both advocate and support efforts in acquiring affordable
housing financing. Also, the City will continue to support the rehabilitation of housing for
low income residents. These improvements will include, but not be limited to,
accessibility improvements, roof repairs, and kitchen remodels. All the improvements
will strive to insure safe and sanitary housing for individuals who are otherwise unable
to make such improvements. The City will explore the possibility of utilizing CDBG
funding to rehabilitate the city-owned Cherry Blossom apartments and convert to a
permanent supportive housing site for critically homeless individuals.

AP -65 Homeless and Other Special Needs Activities – 91.220(i)
Introduction
The city will continue to invest in services that meet the needs of homeless individuals.
With one of the highest per-capita population of homeless individuals in the County,
homelessness represents one of the top social issues that impact the community. The
city will participate in countywide efforts to address homelessness and play an active
role in the "Community Plan to End Homelessness".
Describe the jurisdictions one-year goals and actions for reducing and ending
homelessness including
Reaching out to homeless persons (especially unsheltered persons) and
assessing their individual needs
In South County, outreach is currently limited to law enforcement, volunteers and the
existing safety net agencies. This proposal would increase the effectiveness of the
countywide coordinated entry system (which is required by HUD). Having dedicated
outreach teams would increase the number of individuals who are assessed and would
increase the speed at which individuals and families are referred to and enrolled in
supportive housing programs. Moreover, through a partnership with the Santa Clara
County Behavioral Health Services Department (BHSD) this program will help ensure
that: 1) the County is addressing some of the unmet mental health needs of homeless
persons; and, 2) will establish a more holistic and humane response to meeting the
needs of unsheltered homeless persons. These teams would work closely with the
County's outreach team and other contracted outreach teams. Further, two formerly
homeless individuals sit on the Continuum of Care board.
Addressing the emergency shelter and transitional housing needs of homeless
persons
There does not exist an emergency shelter within the City of Gilroy. The City will
continue to fund day services that will meet the basic needs of homeless individuals. It
will also fund efforts to support victims of domestic violence who are often left homeless
when a victim leaves their abuser. The City will make efforts to identify long-term
housing for these clients by the agency that provides such services.
Helping homeless persons (especially chronically homeless individuals and
families, families with children, veterans and their families, and unaccompanied
youth) make the transition to permanent housing and independent living,
including shortening the period of time that individuals and families experience

homelessness, facilitating access for homeless individuals and families to
affordable housing units, and preventing individuals and families who were
recently homeless from becoming homeless again.
The City does not have the financial resources to directly fund such activities. Agencies
that provide services to the homeless will continue to explore housing options with other
funds that are leveraged with City resources.
Helping low-income individuals and families avoid becoming homeless,
especially extremely low -income individuals and families and those who are:
being discharged from publicly funded institutions and systems of care (such as
health care facilities, mental health facilities, foster care and other youth facilities,
and corrections programs and institutions); or, receiving assistance from public
or private agencies that address housing, health, social services, employment,
education, or youth needs.
The City will fund homeless prevention efforts designed to prevent an individual(s) from
becoming homeless. The services provided will help families threatened with eviction, or
help homeless, unhoused families secure permanent housing with emergency rental
assistance. The funds will serve as a bridge to solving a crisis situation.

AP -75 Barriers to affordable housing – 91.220(j)
Introduction
There exist multiple barriers to affordable housing that are common throughout the Bay
Area. These barriers include the lack of developable land which increases housing
development costs and local opposition that is often based on misconceptions, such as
a foreseen increase in crime; erosion of property values; increase in parking and traffic
congestion. [1] However, to ensure a healthy economy the region must focus on
strategies and investment that provide housing for much of the region’s workforce
whose incomes may significantly limit their housing choices. [2]
The City identified several potential constraints to the development, maintenance, and
improvement of housing and affordable housing, in its 2015 -2023 Housing Element
update: [3]
The General Plan constitutes the highest-level policy document for the City. As
such, a City’s General Plan contains several items that can affect the
development and distribution of housing, such as land -use classifications, and
density and intensity standards.
The City’s residential zoning designations control both the use and development
standards of each residential parcel, thereby influencing the development of
housing. The City has found that the maximum development limits established by
the Zoning Ordinance do not pose a constraint to the development of housing,
although these regulations do have an obvious effect on the cost and
development of housing.
Parking requirements do not constrain the development of housing directly, but
may reduce the amount of available lot area for residential development.

Actions it planned to remove or ameliorate the negative effects of public policies
that serve as barriers to affordable housing such as land use controls, tax
policies affecting land, zoning ordinances, building codes, fees and charges,
growth limitations, and policies affecting the return on residential investment

There are no specific actions proposed to ameliorate the negative effects of public
policies that serve as barriers to affordable housing. The City will continue to enforce
the Residential Development Ordinance (RDO) Affordable Housing Exemption
Procedure (Procedure). The intent of the Procedure is to set forth specific criteria and
guidelines for the affordable housing exemptions included in the City of Gilroy Zoning
Ordinance. The goal of the Procedure is to meet the current and future needs of all
segments of the community specifically both for-sale and rental housing to low income
individuals. The City, through the implementation of its Housing Element, will continue
to identify opportunities to promote the development of affordable housing where
possible.

AP -85 Other Actions – 91.220(k)
Introduction
The AAP has highlighted many of the specific actions the city plans to take in FY 19-20.
Below is further information on other actions it plans to undertake during the same
timeframe.
Actions planned to address obstacles to meeting underserved needs
As noted prior, the most significant obstacle in meeting underserved needs is the limited
availability of funding. The City will continue to research potential opportunities for
additional sources of funding to address the needs it is unable to address with the funds
available. When funds become available, the City will research the potential uses of
those funds and make a determination as to whether or not it can be used to address
underserved needs. Such efforts will be addressed when the City reports out its
accomplishments through the CAPER.
Actions planned to foster and maintain affordable housing
The City will continue to support and provide technical assistance to developers of
affordable for-sale and rental housing. It will continue to research and evaluate options
that could provide additional financial support the development of affordable housing.
Actions planned to reduce lead-based paint hazards
The City will continue to educate the community regarding the hazards of lead
poisoning, particularly about lead-based paint hazards. It will maintain information on
the dangers of lead-based paint at the Community Development counter. It will provide
handouts to rehabilitation program clients and test for lead-based paint as required.
Actions planned to reduce the number of poverty-level families
The City expects that through the community services funding both through the CDBG
and Housing Trust Fund programs will reduce the number of poverty -level families.
Actions planned to develop institutional structure
City staff and staff from the other CDBG entitlement cities in the County of Santa Clara
and the County of Santa Clara as well as the Housing Authority of Santa Clara County
participate in quarterly CDBG Coordinators meetings. These meetings discuss data
resources and strive to coordinate requests for information to both public and private

countywide agencies. These meetings help City staff to better understand the County
and non-profit social service structure. Additionally, HUD staff meets with this group to
clarify issues and assist in providing ongoing programmatic technical information. Th e
email list serve for this group enables members to share information and to provide
technical assistance to one another. The quarterly meetings promote and create an
environment of cooperation and understanding of differing needs, concer ns, and issues
among the group. This expansion of knowledge of regional issues and sharing of
information benefits each of the individual jurisdictions represented in the group.
Also, City staff participates in the South County Collaborative that consists of providers
of services to low income and special needs residents of Gilroy, San Martin and Morgan
Hill. The Collaborative is a nonprofit organization , which is able to apply for funding that
benefits the communities it serves. Collaborative members share information through an
active list serve and receive notices of public comment periods on the AAPs and
CAPERs.
Lastly, the City's Police Department hosts a monthly meeting that includes
representatives from County Mental Health, staff from various nonprofit agencies, health
workers, the Santa Clara Valley Water District, faith-based organizations, as well as
individual volunteers. The focus is on identifying resources and on sharing information
on homeless individuals that have been identified by the police and outreach workers as
being ready to get off the streets or who are in particularly dire need. The sharing of
information and resources also has as a goal of conserving resources such as police
time spent in re-arresting the same homeless person multiple times. The group is also
considering viable alternatives to illegal encampments in Gilroy.
Actions planned to enhance coordination between public and private housing
and social service agencies
As noted in the "Actions planned to develop institutional structure" the City actively
participates in various groups and collaborative designed to share information, bring
awareness to the needs and services of the community and organized to design
solutions to the many needs in the community. The City will continue to part icipate in
such efforts with the goal of bringing forth additional resources to City residents.

STAFF REPORT
Agenda Item Title: Approval to Enter into an Exclusivity Agreement with Sharks Sports
& Entertainment, LLC to Fully Assess the Potential of Having the
Sharks Organization Operate a New Indoor Recreational Facility

Strategic Plan Goals
☐ Fiscal Stability
☐ Downtown

☐ Customer Service ☐ Enhanced Public
Safety
RECOMMENDATION
Approve an exclusivity agreement with the Sharks Sports & Entertainment, LLC, and
authorize the City Administrator to execute the agreement.
DISCUSSION
The City of Gilroy has an opportunity to enter into an exclusivity agreement for the
possibility of a future partnership with a private firm , Sharks Sports & Entertainment,
LLC. At this time, before the City can proceed in business discussions, it is necessary to
enter into a temporary exclusivity agreement.
Exclusivity is the condition in which each party grants the other party sole rights with
regard to a particular business function or product sale and/or purchase. Put another
way, exclusivity is an arrangement between two parties wherein neither will explore
entering into a similar deal with other parties for a certain time period.
10.A
Packet Pg. 147
The considered exclusivity agreement would give both parties the opportunity to
conduct due diligence and proceed in talks without losing a potential deal right away.
During this time staff would take a close look at the details of the proposal and
determine if it is advantageous for the community, or not, and how best to proceed.
After conducting due diligence we would hope to get a viable framework of deal points.
The proposed framework would then be used to draft an agreement that is mutually
beneficial. The City Council would then have the opportunity to review any potential
future agreement, as a result of these exclusive talks, before execution.
While project details are still under discussion, the facility would likely include
opportunities for a variety of sporting programs and events to include ice hockey and
would be located off Monterey Road, as part of the Gilroy Sports Park. Neither the San
Jose Sharks nor the San Jose Barracuda teams would re-locate to Gilroy as part of this
project.
Having the proposed facility operated by a national brand with a proven track record of
operating recreational ice facilities would be a great opportunity for economic
development and has the potential to heighten our position in the region as a
destination location and increase travel and tourism to Gilroy.
Discussions during this preliminary period are non-binding and provide the opportunity
to fully assess the potential of the proposed facility in Gilroy.
ALTERNATIVES
1. Enter into an exclusivity agreement. This is the recommended action because
it allows the City to fully assess the revenue potential and potential community
benefits.
2. Do not enter into an exclusivity agreement. This is not recommended because it
would necessarily stop any further business discussions.
FISCAL IMPACT/FUNDING SOURCE
None. If a future agreement, created as a result of the deal points drafted during this
potential period of exclusivity, had a financial impact, then it would be presented along
with the staff report to approve the future agreement.
NEXT STEPS
After conducting due diligence we would hope to get a viable framework of deal points.
In the event a future project is viable the appropriate additional studies and reports will
need to be conducted. Any future agreement would be subject to both parties’
respective governing bodies or executive representatives will need to approve any
future agreement. The proposed framework would be used to draft an agreement that
is mutually beneficial.

STAFF REPORT
Agenda Item Title: Report on the Status of Existing Broadcasting Capabilities at City
Hall and Proposal for Upgrading Services and City-Owned
Equipment
Meeting Date: May 6, 2019
From: Gabriel Gonzalez, City Administrator
Department: Administration
Submitted By: Gabriel Gonzalez
Prepared By: Gabriel Gonzalez
Rachelle Bedell
Strategic Plan Goals
Fiscal Stability
☐ Downtown
Revitalization
☐ Economic
Development
Customer Service ☐ Enhanced Public
Safety
RECOMMENDATION
Receive report and provide direction to staff.
BACKGROUND
City-owned recording and broadcasting equipment is in need of upgrades or
replacement, with some pieces of equipment being over 28 years old. Funds for
upgrades to City broadcasting equipment and services are available in accordance with
the Digital Infrastructure and Video Competition Act (DIVCA) but under the current
agreement, approximately half of the funding available is not going towards City needs,
instead funding Community Media Access Partnership (CMAP) services. We are
proposing an alternative which would provide funding to the City to undertake these
improvement projects; staff is proposing to discontinue the contract with CMAP to
provide a fiscally responsible option for needed upgrades.
11.A
Packet Pg. 149
In accordance with DIVCA, local cable providers are required to provide funding to
assist with the cost of operating public access channels in the form of (1) PEG Fees and
(2) Franchise Fees.
In 2001 the cities of Gilroy, Hollister, and San Juan Bautista sought support for
providing government access channels and entered into an agreement with CMAP,
establishing CMAP as the non-profit organization to provide Public, Education, and
Government (PEG) facilities, services and programming for the cities. PEG Fees and a
portion of the Franchise Fees are passed from each of the cities to CMAP for these
services.
Under the City of Gilroy’s agreement with CMAP, approximately half of the revenues
received from the cable companies are provided to CMAP. Consider the below chart.
Fees Sent to CMAP Annually for ‘Public Access Channel Services’
(1) PEG Fees 100% to CMAP Approximately
$180,000
Specified Use for
Capital Improvements
(2) Franchise
Fees 20% to CMAP Approximately
$60,000
Available for Capital
Improvements or
Operating Expenses
Total: $240,000
Current Services Provided to the City by CMAP
With this funding, CMAP currently provides cable channel access to Charter for the City
of Gilroy. In addition, they provide programming for Channels 18,19, and 20 with the
City of Gilroy providing staffing for recording of and programming for Channel 17.
CMAP is able to provide staffing for recording of City of Gilroy government meetings at
a cost of $50 per hour.
ALTERNATIVES
1. Move Broadcast Service In-House: Through transitioning away from CMAP and
bringing the PEG and Franchise Fees back to the City, upgrades to services and
equipment can be provided without additional cost to the City.
Moving broadcast services in-house is understood to be a fairly simple process
and is anticipated to have very little ongoing impact on staff time. The transition
would require the acquisition of approximately two additional pieces of equipment
not currently owned by the City and a re-routing of signal cable at an
11.A
Packet Pg. 150
approximate cost of $16,000 which could be paid for through recuperated PEG
Fees. Channel 17, the current government public access channel, would
continue to be programmed by city staff.
Once broadcast services are moved in-house, upgrades to equipment can be
purchased with the $180,000 annual PEG Fees which would increase reliability
of the equipment and allow for the exploration of options for increasing quality
and accessibility of government meetings such as high definition streaming and
automatic live streaming to City social media accounts. Currently, any necessary
equipment upgrades are paid for out of the General Fund.
In addition, the cost of re-classification of the Community Engagement
Coordinator position would be fully covered by the recuperated Franchise Fees.
Discontinuance of the contract with CMAP would most likely result in a lack of
programming for cable channels 18, 19, and 20, the public access channels
designate for health and wellness, education, and community access. Staff
recommends this option.
2. Extend Contract with CMAP: CMAP would continue to operate our public access
channels. Funding for possible equipment upgrades would continue to come
from the General Fund. This option is not recommended
CONCLUSION
Based upon staff research and findings, by moving broadcast services in-house and
discontinuing our contract with CMAP, improvements to broadcasting infrastructure and
services could be provided at no cost to the City and provides a fiscally responsible
option for needed upgrades.
