Presentation on youth homelessness, mental health, and mental illness by Dr. Adela Cruz, Anaheim Union High School District. Council Member Moreno introduced Dr. Adela Cruz, Anaheim Union High School District, and her work with students who have unstable housing environments. Dr. Cruz began her presentation and noted the most vulnerable children and youth are those in foster care, juvenile hall, homeless/unaccompanied youth, and LGBTQ youth. She also reported that risk factors include poverty, poor health, socio-cultural factors, violence, and political and economic factors. Dr. Cruz clarified the difference between mental health and mental illness. She provided national statistics on mental illness and noted that it has been seen in the elementary school age. She noted that the McKinney-Vento Act defines homelessness as lacking a regular, fixed, and adequate nighttime residence. She also noted that this includes children who are doubled up, such as renting a garage or a room. She provided examples of how homelessness affects physical health, mental health, and creates additional issues. Dr. Cruz stressed the urgency of this crisis because psychosocial problems affect earning which leads to school failure and exacerbates their symptoms. She also noted the opportunity of an education is important because of the lack of a high school diploma or General Equivalency Diploma (GED) is the number one correlate for elevated risk of youth homelessness. Dr. Cruz reported that not addressing mental illness or homelessness could lead to less productive lives, poor quality of life, a 10-25 year life expectancy reduction in patients with severe mental illness, and stigma and discrimination. Dr. Cruz reported the Investment Rationale invests in youth social development, mental health, and physical health, which will increase a strong hope, a sense of belonging, significance, and security. She added that this would lead to an increase in education and/or career, economic growth stability, healthy and strong families and relationships and lastly, being a contributing member of society. DISCUSSION: In response to Council Member Moreno's inquiry, Dr. Cruz advised that mental health care professional's within the school district work directly with staff to identify students who are struggling and they collaborate with agencies to provide services. She also advised there are funding resources that are coming to school districts through the Mental Health Services Act. She also noted it is very important to have a mental health expert to identify the children in need and connecting them to services. City Council Minutes of December 3, 2019 Page 12 of 20 In response to Council Member Moreno's inquiry, Dr. Cruz advised that parents should be on the lookout for behaviors that may show signs of mental illness. In response to Council Member Barnes' inquiry, Dr. Cruz advised they provide parenting workshops to build parenting skills and they are well attended. Mayor Sidhu thanked Dr. Cruz for her presentation. No action taken. AGR- 7. Approve the Community Workforce Agreement (CWA) that provides opportunities for local 11782 hires on city construction projects for a five year term with the Los Angeles/Orange Counties Building Trades Council, and the signatory Craft Councils and Local Unions; authorize the Director of Public Works, or designee, to execute the agreement, periodically update CWA attachments, and take necessary actions to implement and administer the CWA; authorize de minimis changes that do not substantially change the terms and conditions of the CWA, as determined by the City Attorney's Office; and determine that certain construction and rehabilitation projects to be performed under the CWA shall be categorically exempt under the California Environmental Quality Act, Sections 15301, 15302, 15303, and/or 15304 of Title 14 of the California Code of Regulations. DISCUSSION: Council Member O'Neil thanked all the stakeholders for speaking to City Council. He addressed the goals for a CWA and expressed concern that Community Workforce Agreement (CWA), as presented, imposes unnecessary burdens for non-union contractors. He noted that non- union contractors employ local workers and the CWA was counterproductive to the goal of hiring locally. He noted that all contractors working on municipal projects are required to pay a prevailing wage and benefits and AB 1701 makes general contractors responsible for compliance of any subcontractors. He wants the CWA to work for all workers. MOTION: Council Member O'Neil moved to approve with additional language to allow non-union contractors to use their own workforce who otherwise meet defined hiring targets, allow the use of apprentices from any state-approved apprenticeship program, and for payments of health and fringe benefits as required under prevailing wage laws to follow the non-union worker and be paid into their already-enrolled plans, seconded by Mayor Pro Tern Kring. SUBSIDIARY MOTION: Council Member Brandman moved to amend the motion to approve as recommended by staff, seconded by Council Member Moreno. DISCUSSION: Council Member Moreno thanked staff for their work on the item over the past year. He advised there was an ad hoc committee in this regard and asked if they reviewed the amendments presented by Council Member O'Neil. Mayor Sidhu thanked staff for their work on the item and reported the ad hoc team did speak to ABC Apprenticeship representatives and worked through negotiations with the trades. He would be supporting the CWA as presented, as he felt it was best for the City. In response to Council Member Faessel's inquiry, Public Utilities General Manager Dukku Lee advised that in speaking with the Los Angeles/Orange Counties Building and Construction Trades Council, they indicated they had other jurisdictions where they have non-union contractors bid successfully on a good number of projects. Council Member Faessel requested that Mr. Miller speak to that point. Ron Miller, Executive Secretary, Los Angeles/Orange Counties Building City Council Minutes of December 3, 2019 Page 13 of 20 and Construction Trades Council, advised that non-union contractors could, in fact, bid on the projects. He gave examples of projects that are working under a similar CWA. Mayor Pro Tem Kring expressed her support for non-union and union contractors. She would like to see City Council support the concept that "the money follows the person" and have the agreement help all workers. In response to Council Member Brandman's inquiry, Mr. Lee reported that all the points that were brought forward on March 19, 2019 were discussed and were presented to the Los Angeles/Orange Counties Building and Construction Trades Council and ultimately led to the agreement. Council Member Brandman thanked Mayor Sidhu for his leadership on this item. Council Member Moreno addressed the goals of the agreement and thanked staff for their work on the item. He expressed his support for the item and felt that it was fair. Council Member O'Neil felt that his proposal creates an even playing field and meets the goals of the CWA. He questioned what the goals really are, emphasizing local hire provisions and a qualified workforce. Council Member O'Neil wanted to move to amend the amendment to revert back to his original motion. City Attorney Robert Fabela opined that, procedurally, Council Member Brandman's motion should be voted upon, and then another amended motion could be introduced. In response to Council Member Barnes' inquiry, Mr. Lee advised this item was City Council-driven which asked staff to negotiate with the Los Angeles/Orange Counties Building and Construction Trades Council, which happens to be a union. Council Member Barnes expressed her interest in supporting Council Member O'Neil's motion. In response to Council Member Moreno's inquiry, Mayor Sidhu confirmed the ad-hoc committee worked with staff and negotiated based on their recommendations. SUBSIDIARY MOTION: Council Member Brandman moved to amend the original motion to approve as presented, seconded by Council Member Moreno. ROLL CALL VOTE: AYES —4 (Mayor Sidhu and Council Members Brandman, Moreno, and Faessel); NOES — 3 (Mayor Pro Tem Kring and Council Members Barnes and O'Neil). Motion carried; original motion amended. SUBSIDIARY MOTION: Council Member O'Neil moved to amend the motion to approve with a reduced term of two years, seconded by Mayor Pro Tern Kring. ROLL CALL VOTE: AYES — 3 (Mayor Pro Tern Kring and Council Members Barnes and O'Neil); NOES —4 (Mayor Sidhu and Council Members Brandman, Moreno, and Faessel). Motion failed. AMENDED MOTION: Council Member O'Neil moved to approve the Community Workforce Agreement (CWA) that provides opportunities for local hires on city construction projects for a five year term with the Los Angeles/Orange Counties Building Trades Council, and the signatory Craft Councils and Local Unions; authorize the Director of Public Works, or designee, to execute the agreement, periodically update CWA attachments, and take necessary actions to implement and administer the CWA; authorize de minimis changes that do not substantially change the terms and conditions of the CWA, as determined by the City Attorney's Office; and determine that certain construction and rehabilitation projects to be performed under the CWA shall be categorically exempt under the California Environmental Quality Act, Sections 15301, 15302, 15303, and/or 15304 of Title 14 of the California Code of Regulations, seconded by Mayor Pro Tern Kring. ROLL CALL VOTE: City Council Minutes of December 3, 2019 Page 14 of 20 AYES — 6 (Mayor Sidhu and Council Members Kring, Barnes, Brandman, Moreno, and Faessel); NOES — 1 (Council Member O'Neil).

City Council Minutes of December 3, 2019 Page 15 of 20 RESOLUTION NO. 2019-143 A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF ANAHEIM approving and adopting proposed Conditional Use Permit No. 2018-05975 (DEV2018-00081) (100-394 West Cerritos Avenue). RESOLUTION NO. 2019-144 A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF ANAHEIM approving Tentative Tract Map No. 18182 (DEV2018-00081) (100-394 West Cerritos Avenue). ORDINANCE NO. 6474 (INTRODUCTION) AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY OF ANAHEIM amending the zoning map referred to in Title 18 of the Anaheim Municipal Code relating to zoning (Reclassification No. 2018-00315) (DEV2018-00081). Planning and Building Director Ted White presented the staff report. He reported the item is to construct a 292-unit, attached, single-family residential project with 10% of those units identified as affordable housing units for moderate-income buyers. He advised that on October 28, 2019, the Planning Commission recommended City Council approval of the project by a 5-2 vote. He noted that surrounding uses include a mobile home community to the north, the 1-5 Freeway to the west, a hotel and parking structure that is currently under construction to the south, and commercial/industrial uses to the east, across Anaheim Boulevard. Mr. White advised the 11.87-acre property is located in the "C-G" General Commercial zone and is currently developed with a business park that consists of eight one- and two-story buildings with office and commercial uses. He advised the project requires City Council approval of an amendment to the General Plan to change the land use designation from General Commercial to Mid Density Residential. He advised the project also needs to be rezoned to the Multiple-Family Residential "RM- 3.5" zone. Mr. White advised the units would be in 38, three- and four-story buildings, consisting of three different product types. He reported the project complies with all development standards of the RM- 3.5 zone except certain setback requirements, which are requested to be modified with the Conditional Use Permit (CUP). He presented renderings of the project and listed site amenities. Mr. White advised the project includes 10%, or 30, units designated as affordable units to moderate- income households. He reviewed the State Density Bonus Law and cited a City Council policy that emphasizes the importance of affordable housing. He advised the project is also eligible to receive a Tier 1 Density Bonus incentive, which includes a guaranteed reduction of building-to-building setbacks. He also noted the project would exceed the minimum parking requirements of the city's Density Bonus Ordinance by 65 spaces. Mr. White reported the applicant requested a variance for reduced garage dimensions from 20' x 20' to 19'1" x 19'-7", which the Planning Commission found to be negligible and recommended approval. The request also includes a Tentative Tract Map and includes the abandoned Cerritos Avenue. Mr. White reported the applicant hosted a community meeting at the Golden Skies Mobile Home Park on June 6, 2019, which was attended by 17 residents and responses from the community were generally favorable. He noted the City received one letter in opposition to the project from a current tenant of the existing business center. For the record, he identified an error on Attachment 1, which was an incorrect reference to the property in the second paragraph of the resolution which should be deleted entirely. Lastly, he noted staff recommends approval of the project. City Council Minutes of December 3, 2019 Page 16 of 20 Mayor Sidhu, Mayor Pro Tern Kring, and Council Members Brandman, Faessel, O'Neil, Barnes, and Moreno reported ex-parte discussions with the applicant. Mayor Sidhu opened the public hearing. Rob Mitchell, applicant, thanked City Council for their time and effort and staff for their work on the item. He shared this was the second phase of improvements along Anaheim Blvd., following the hotel development. He expressed his support for the item. William Fitzgerald, Home Owners Maintaining Our Environment, expressed his concern with the project and felt it served the City Council instead of Anaheim residents. Yolanda Delgado expressed her concern regarding the project and cited overcrowding in the area. Rob Mitchell, applicant, provided the history of the project and thanked staff for their hard work on the project. Mayor Sidhu closed the public hearing. DISCUSSION: Council Member Barnes thanked Ms. Delgado for voicing her concerns. In response to Council Member Barnes' inquiry, Mr. Mitchell advised a 12-foot freeway sound wall would be built. Mr. White responded that, based on the recommendations from a Health Risk Assessment, a filtration system would be installed in every unit. Cecilia So, First Carbon Solutions, reported her firm prepared the environmental report for the project and, in response to the South Coast Air Quality Management letter received, they are preparing an Operational Health Risk Assessment, which is in process. She advised that advanced air filtration units would be required in units that are closest to the freeway and requires disclosure to the residents. Mr. White advised that the completion of a Health Risk Assessment was a condition of approval prior to issuance of the building permits. Council Member Barnes felt the area is overcrowded. Alan Toffoli, DeNova Homes, advised all the garages meet the minimum clearance from a vehicle standpoint and will allow space for bike storage. Mr. White advised the parking spaces are deeper and wider than commercial parking spaces. In response to Council Member Faessel's inquiry, Mr. Mitchell reported they assisted 98% of building tenants relocate. He advised the Moose Lodge is in the process of moving. In response to Council Member Moreno's inquiry, Mr. White advised the only variance being requested is the minimum size of the garage. He advised the other modifications being requested are being requested under the State Density Bonus Ordinance. Associate Planner Nick Taylor advised there is a setback modification for the interior setback along the north property line, a setback modification for the street setback from Anaheim Boulevard, and a Tier 1 incentive for the building-to- building setbacks on the property. Mr. White believed the project provides a high quality and safe standard for the units. He felt the project could provide a high-level of housing. In response to Council Member Moreno's inquiry, Mr. White advised that setbacks comply with the building code and it is a safe project. He advised there are many reasons and design preferences for City Council Minutes of December 3, 2019 Page 17 of 20 not having large yard areas. In response to Council Moreno's inquiry, Principal Planner David See advised the Domain Condominiums adjacent to the Packing House have similar setbacks. In response to Council Member Moreno's inquiry, Mr. White advised the City is forced to make compromises when trying to provide affordable housing. Council Member Moreno expressed concern that housing was being developed close to the freeway. In response to Council Member Moreno's inquiry, Mr. Mitchell advised that he was willing to discuss incentives for Anaheim residents purchasing these units. Council Member Moreno expressed concern that Housing Authority monies were being used to provide affordable housing but once the unit was sold, it would return to a market-rate unit. Director of Community and Economic Development John Woodhead advised there was an equity share in this project, which goes back to the Housing Authority, which can then be lent out for other projects. He also advised there is a state law that allows for an affordability cycle and, if the seller wants to sell to a non-qualifying buyer, there is an equity share that has to be paid to the local jurisdiction to provide additional affordable housing. In response to Council Member Moreno's inquiry, Mr. Woodhead advised there could be a resale restriction that can be made locally. He did advise that it can be problematic and there is no perfect solution to this problem. He noted the State Density Bonus Law precludes the City from mandating the money from the project stays within the project. Council Member Moreno expressed concerns that the mobile home park located near the project will increase rents once the project is completed, as it would become a more desirable location. Mr. Woodhead noted that mobile home parks eventually turn over to other uses and will be discussed when reviewing the General Plan. Mr. White advised there are protections for current tenants if, and when, a mobile home park turns over under the Mobile Home Park Overlay Zone. Mr. See advised that a Conversion Impact Report is required to be presented to City Council, noting relocation benefits should a developer turn over the mobile home park property. Council Member Moreno expressed concern that there were no rent protections for the residents at the mobile home park. In response to Council Member Moreno's inquiry, Mr. Toffoli advised the open space is interior to the development and the center of the community is 450 feet from the freeway. In response to Council Member Barnes's inquiry, Mr. White advised this project would count against the Regional Housing Needs Allocation (RHNA) numbers and, if the units were lost, would need to be re-couped through affordable housing in the future. Mr. Woodhead advised this was not a new issue in Anaheim. City Attorney Robert Fabela advised removal of the second paragraph "WHEREAS, the Property is approximately 1.57 acres in size and is currently developed with RV storage lot" of the first resolution would need to be included in the reading. In response to Council Member O'Neil's inquiry, Mr. Woodhead advised that when the unit turns over the Housing Authority is made whole on the money it loaned in addition to earning interest along with an equity share, which then builds funds that could be used for more affordable projects. MOTION: Mayor Pro Tem Kring moved to approve the project as presented with a clerical correction to the first resolution (Resolution No. 2019-142) to remove the second paragraph "WHEREAS, the City Council Minutes of December 3, 2019 Page 18 of 20 Property is approximately 1.57 acres in size and is currently developed with RV storage lot. The Land Use Element of the Anaheim General Plan designates the Property for Low Density Residential land uses. The Property is located in the "I" Industrial Zone. The development standards and regulations of Chapter 18.06 (Multiple-Family Residential Zones) of the Anaheim Municipal Code (the "Code") shall apply", seconded by Council Member O'Neil. ROLL CALL VOTE: AYES — 7 (Mayor Sidhu and Council Members Kring, Barnes, Brandman, Moreno, Faessel, and O'Neil); NOES — 0. Motion carried; ordinance introduced. P110 20. This is a public hearing to consider the proposed partial vacation/abandonment of a portion of Westside Drive; proposed summary vacation of Market Street, Park Street, Meridian Street P124 and Union Street as irrevocably offered for dedication per Tract No. 17703; and acceptance of City Deed Nos. 12337 and 12338. RESOLUTION NO. 2019-145 A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF ANAHEIM vacating excess street right of way for a portion of Westside Drive generally located south of Katella Avenue and north of Gene Autry Drive (Abandonment No. ABA 2019- 00398). RESOLUTION NO. 2019-146 A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF ANAHEIM vacating portions of irrevocable offer of dedication of easement for street, public utility and other public purposes pursuant to California Streets and Highway Code Section 8330, et seq. — Summary Vacation (ABA 2019-00398). RESOLUTION NO. 2019-147 A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF ANAHEIM accepting certain deeds conveying to the City of Anaheim certain real properties or interests therein (City Deed Nos. 12337 and 12338). Public Works Director Rudy Emami advised the abandonment has been requested by the applicants/owners, PT Metro LLC, and LMV ATOWN Holdings, LLC, in order to provide private assigned parking spaces along Westside Drive. Mr. Emami reported that on May 29, 2019, the Anaheim Planning Commission approved, via Resolutions PC2019-026 and PC2019-028, the Site Plan for these development areas, subject to the vacation/abandonment of public streets and approval of a Parking Management Plan. He advised the City previously accepted easement deeds for Westside Drive in order to serve the newly constructed Core Apartments located along the west side of Westside Drive. He noted that if vacated, the City would reserve a public utility easement over the entirety of the portion of Westside Drive to be vacated. Mr. Emami advised the streets under consideration for summary vacation were irrevocably offered for dedication as an easement per Tract Map No. 17703. He noted the summary vacation of the irrevocable offer of dedication of easement is for Market Street, Park Street, Meridian Street, and Union Street. Mr. Emami advised that in order to comply with the intent of the Platinum Triangle Mixed Use Overlay Zone and the approved Site Plan for Lennar A-Town development areas "G" and "H," City staff is requiring that applicants provide an easement for public vehicular and pedestrian access. Mayor Sidhu opened the public hearing. City Council Minutes of December 3, 2019 Page 19 of 20 William Fitzgerald, Home Owners Maintaining Our Environment, expressed his concern with the project and felt it served the City Council instead of Anaheim residents. Mayor Sidhu closed the public hearing. DISCUSSION: Council Member Faessel reported ex parte communication with the developer. In response to Council Member Moreno's inquiry, Mr. Emami advised this was not a land swap and noted that under the original tract map they were intended to be public roadways. He advised it allows the roads to become private while allowing an easement for public utilities and access. He noted this was not a sale agreement and the developer will maintain assignment of parking spaces. MOTION: Mayor Pro Tern Kring moved to approve the proposed partial vacation/abandonment of a portion of Westside Drive; proposed summary vacation of Market Street, Park Street, Meridian Street and Union Street as irrevocably offered for dedication per Tract No. 17703; and acceptance of City Deed Nos. 12337 and 12338, seconded by Council Member O'Neil.

He stated he would host community forums to review any potential deals with the Angels. Council Member Faessel thanked the Public Works Department for cleaning up the remnants of a homeless encampment on the Union Pacific Railroad right-of-way near Lewis Street. He also thanked Republic Services for finalizing the donation of a garbage truck to Guanajuato, Mexico. He reported his attendance and participation at a Creative Identify luncheon, the Patriots and Paws grocery giveaway to veterans, the annual tree lighting at the White House Restaurant, and the We Give Thanks event at the Honda Center. He announced the following upcoming events: Polar Express pajama party on December 17 at the Muzeo, the Anaheim Historical Society holiday potluck on December 10 at Zion Lutheran Church, and the Creative Identify winter concert on December 14 at the Anaheim First Christian Church.
