Police Department has many things in the works and would arrange for traffic enforcement in the
area around the school and for the issue with delivery trucks on residential streets.
Council Member Nakanishi expressed his support for help on the Eastside. Further, he spoke
about the Groundwater Joint Authority session and reported that the Groundwater Sustainability
plan was not passed by the Department of Water Resources.
In response, Public Works Director Swimley stated that the Plan was deemed "incomplete" which
is not uncommon, and the Authority has 180 days to resubmit the revised Plan; the Department of
Water Resources' comments are still being evaluated with the Authority's consultant.
Council Member Khan asked if lighted crosswalks could be included with the Garfield Street
project, commented on the recent shootings, questioned the use of encrypted scanner calls, and
requested that fewer liquor licenses be issued on the Eastside.
Council Member Kuehne suggested Ms. Pena speak with the principal at Heritage School about
additional crossing guards, and spoke about upcoming events. Further, Council Member Kuehne
stated that business owners are interested in making School Street pedestrian-only from
Walnut Street to Pine Street, and suggested that staff check into the feasibility of the plan and
perhaps have a trial on Fridays and Saturdays once or twice per month.
Mayor Chandler spoke on the recent Point in Time Count.
Mayor Pro Tempore Hothi asked for information on lighted crosswalks, encrypted scanner calls,
and the Downtown street closure.
In response to Council Member comments, City Manager Schwabauer explained that:
1) Single liquor licenses are no longer issued, rather it is now part of the Use Permit. For stores
operating with a liquor license not associated with a Use Permit, the State Department of
Alcoholic Beverage Control has jurisdiction. If the store is operating with a Use Permit, then the
City would have jurisdiction.
2) The Federal government has mandated encryption of scanner calls to protect identifiable
information that is being transmitted.
3) The City no longer installs in-street lighting at crosswalks and that other lighting options cost
between $15,000 and $20,000.
Further, City Manager Schwabauer stated that he would suggest engaging with the Downtown
business owners before moving forward with any plans for School Street.
Public Works Director Swimley added that during the pandemic, Public Works staff spoke with the
business owners about closing School Street from Elm Street to Lodi Avenue to allow outdoor
dining, and business owners were split fairly evenly in being for and against the idea.

G-1 Public Hearing to Consider Adopting Resolution Setting Pre-Approved 2021 Engineering
News Record Adjustment Index for Usage-Based and Flat Water Rates for Residential,
Commercial, and Industrial Customers (PW)

Notice thereof having been published according to law, an affidavit of which publication is on file
in the office of the City Clerk, Mayor Chandler called for the public hearing to consider adopting a
resolution setting pre-approved 2021 Engineering News Record adjustment index for usage-
based and flat water rates for residential, commercial, and industrial customers.
Public Works Director Charlie Swimley provided a PowerPoint presentation regarding water rates.
Specific topics of discussion included water rate setting, Water Meter Program status, seven-year
summary, Water Operating balances, recommended flat rates, recommended metered rates, 2%
increase amounts, local rate comparisons, and recommendation.
In response to Council Members Kuehne and Nakanishi, City Manager Schwabauer confirmed
that there was no rate increase in 2020 and rates decreased in 2021. He further explained that
the rates increased initially to finance the water meter program, which had a State deadline of
2025, but as a matter of accountability, that rate increase was set to sunset in 2021.
In response to Mayor Chandler, Public Works Director Swimley stated that the increase is
projected to be 3% next year, there is a downward trend in revenue, and the fund is still catching
up from the rate sunset in 2021.
In response to Mayor Chandler, City Manager Schwabauer stated that the majority of the cost for
water is operation and maintenance, which remain fairly constant regardless of the volume.
Council Member Kuehne stated that he feels a 2% rate increase is a wise choice.
Council Member Nakanishi stated that he feels the City needs to keep the reserve strong.
Mayor Chandler opened the public hearing for public comment.
There being no public comments, Mayor Chandler closed the public hearing.

Council Member Nakanishi stated that he likes the project but expressed concerns regarding
maintenance expense, homeless encampments along the trail, and whether the City had the
manpower to maintain it.
In response to Council Member Kuehne, Public Works Director Swimley stated that the City
usually receives about $100,000 in Bike/Ped funding from San Joaquin Council of Governments.
City Manager Schwabauer confirmed that City does not have the money to construct or maintain
the project right now, finding funding is part of the process, low bar/no bar housing would fix the
homeless problem, and the study was to check the feasibility of the project and explore options.
Council Member Nakanishi expressed support for studying the feasibility.
Mayor Pro Tempore Hothi concurred, stating that the project would beautify the area and promote
exercise.
Council Member Khan stated that the City would benefit from the project but he felt that the City
has other issues which are higher funding priorities.
In response to Mayor Chandler, City Manager Schwabauer stated that the $80,000 grant was for
Phase I.
