MEETING DATE/TIME: 5/4/2022 ITEM NO: 2022-1600 AGENDA SUMMARY REPORT SUBJECT: Authorize the City Manager to Negotiate and Execute a Contract Between the City of Ukiah and the County of Mendocino to Receive PG&E Disaster Settlement Funds for the Acquisition of a Fire Training Tower; Approve Corresponding Budget Amendments; and Approve the Purchase of the Fire Training Tower Recommended by the Mendocino County Fire Chief's Association. DEPARTMENT: Fire PREPARED BY: Justin Buckingham, Battalion Chief PRESENTER: Justin Buckingham, Battalion Chief ATTACHMENTS: 1. FTS Quote Ukiah Valley Fire, Ukiah CA, Modified Bullhead System (1) Summary: The Mendocino County Board of Supervisors approved the use of one-time PG&E settlement money in the amount of $1,000,000 to purchase Fire Training Towers for local fire agencies. One of the towers is assigned to the Ukiah Valley Fire Authority. Due to purchasing restrictions within the county, the money to purchase the training tower will be given to the Ukiah Valley Fire Authority to purchase the tower directly. This requires the Council to approve the receipt of the funds, approve a corresponding budget amendment, and approve the purchase of the Fire Training Facility recommended by the Mendocino County Fire Chief's Association . Background: In 2017, the County of Mendocino was impacted by a devastating fire that was determined to be caused by PG&E equipment. Through a settlement that included many other counties, Mendocino County received $22,000,000.00 in one-time funds. The County of Mendocino Board of Supervisors debated how to spend the funds, with an emphasis on supporting those affected by the fire. The Board ultimately set aside $1,000,000 of the settlement funds for the purchase of two Fire Training Towers, to be owned and maintained by two agencies within the county. The purpose of the Fire Training Towers was to support local agencies by filling a training void that has existed within the county for many years. The Ukiah Valley Fire Authority is integral in the training of many agencies throughout the county due to our size, cadre of instructors, and geographic location. With this fact in mind, it was determined that one of the facilities would be placed in Ukiah, with the Ukiah Valley Fire Authority taking ownership of the tower and maintaining it while providing training to our partner agencies. Discussion: The number of structure fires in the United States has been steadily declining for many years and while that is a good statistic for the public, it has led to a lack of experience in firefighters nationwide. We are unfortunately in the same position with many of our team members lacking the real-world experience of suppressing many interior structural fires. This leads to inefficiencies, diminished safety due to the lack of training and experience, and an overall lack of professionalism. This has led many fire departments to purchase Fire Training Facilities that allow for live fire training in an effort to fill the chasm. In addition to this, the Insurance Services Office (ISO) bases part of their rating on whether or not an agency has a tower that meets specific requirements for things such as height and a burn room. The Fire Authority has been searching for ways to be able to purchase a Fire Training Tower that allows for the use of live fire for many years, but due to funding constraints, we have been unsuccessful. This innovative opportunity arose and staff seized the opportunity to collaborate with the County, as well as our partner fire Page 27 of 387 Page 2 of 2 agencies, to advance the fire service in all of Mendocino County. This new tower is NFPA and ISO compliant and will allow us to teach and test all the job performance requirements that firefighters are required to have. The tower will serve our community and county for many years and assist in the training of hundreds of firefighters throughout the years. Two vendors were solicited by the Mendocino County Fire Chief's Association to provide bids and the chosen company was over $100,000 dollars less than the other company, and very responsive to our collective needs. The cost of the tower includes all necessary engineering, installation, and training. There will be some additional funds required for site preparation that Fire Authority Staff estimate will be less than $25,000. There is a lead time of approximately 9 months once the order is placed, so those funds will not be required this fiscal year. With the savings that were realized, the County is also trying to do one or more less complex satellite towers, so those savings may not be available for the site work. As such, Fire Authority Staff have programmed money into the FY 22/23 CIP to cover any site work as well as add additional improvements, such as power. The Department is currently evaluating City-owned locations for placing the tower, but given the 9-month lead time, the Department would like to move forward with the order (Attachment #1). Furthermore, the sole source purchase of the Fire Training unit from Fire Training Structures, LLC is based upon the evaluation of cost and needs by the Mendocino County Fire Chief's Association. Recommended Action: Authorize the City Manger to negotiate and execute a contract between the County and the City to receive the PG&E Disaster Settlement Funds for the purchase of a Fire Training Tower; approve corresponding budget amendments; and approve the purchase of the Fire Training Tower recommended by the Mendocino County Fire Chief's Association.

DEPARTMENT:Public Works PREPARED BY:Andrew Stricklin, Associate Engineer PRESENTER:Tim Eriksen, Director of Public Works / City Engineer ATTACHMENTS: 1.RFP Talmage Rehabilitation 2.GHD - Talmage Road Rehabilitation Project 3.GHD - Talmage Road Rehabilitation Project - Fee Proposal Summary: The City Council will consider awarding a professional services agreement to GHD in the amount of $239,393 to prepare the plans, specifications, and estimate for the Talmage Road Rehabilitation Project, and approve a corresponding budget amendment. Background: This project is for the design of the rehabilitation of Talmage Road from Airport Park Blvd. to State Street. Design for this project will include the anticipated paving overlay of the roadway where appropriate on a highly traveled route in disrepair. To improve pedestrian travel along this roadway, as well as provide better access to the Great Redwood Trail, City staff is seeking the design of missing sections of sidewalk on both the north and south side of Talmage Road which will likely require the widening of the existing crossing over Doolin Creek as well as placement of a new pedestrian bridge over the creek near the west end of this project. Design will also include construction of all necessary pedestrian ADA curb ramps within the scope of this project. Discussion: The City issued a request for proposals (Attachment 1) and sent it to local firms. In addition, staff posted the RFP on the City's website through eBidboard on December 16, 2021. In response to the City's RFP, two consulting firms submitted a proposal including GHD Inc. and BKF Engineers. The selection committee consisting of City staff reviewed the proposals and selected GHD as the recommended consultant to design this project. GHD's billing rates are consistent with industry standards and their proposal best fits with the request and scope of this project. GHD's proposal (Attachment 2) and the cost proposal (Attachment 3) are included with this report for reference. GHD's cost for the proposed work is $239,393. Staff recommends award of a professional services agreement to GHD in the amount of $239,393. A subsequent budget amendment is also requested. The funding source for this project will be the Series 2022 Lease Revenue Bonds. Throughout the design process for this project, the Complete Streets Ad Hoc (Rodin, Crane) will continue to be engaged. Recommended Action: Award professional services agreement to GHD Engineers, Inc. in the amount of $239,393 to prepare the plans, specifications, and estimate for the Talmage Road Rehabilitation Project, and approve corresponding budget amendments.

This additional survey work will establish the City ROW and adjacent parcel boundaries along the project corridor. Background GHD is currently under contract with the City to provide design services for the Talmage Road Rehabilitation project. This project includes the resurfacing of approximately 1700 feet of roadway between State Street and Airport Park Boulevard. The project also includes the addition of sidewalk and pedestrian paths to complete gaps in the existing corridor. The original scope of work includes topographic survey only. Scope of Work At the request of the City, GHD will perform ROW survey services to establish the limits of the public ROW and adjacent parcel boundaries. This will be beneficial to confirm that any proposed improvements are located within public ROW and identify any potential areas where ROW acquisition may be needed. This work will include review of existing documents as well as field work. General Assumptions/Exclusions This proposal is based on the following assumptions: 1. Meetings are not required, but can be provided on an additional time-and-materials basis. 2. ROW acquisition will not be required for the road design. 3. Additional preliminary title reports will not be required. This can be provided if necessary for an additional fee. EXHIBIT 1 Page 56 of 387 12571020 | RE: Proposal for Professional Engineering Services: Talmage Road Rehabilitation Project Additional Right-of-Way Confirmation 2 Schedule We anticipate completing this additional survey work within three weeks of approval from the City. Deliverable Our deliverable for this task will be the addition of the ROW linework to the digital survey base file in Autocad Civil3D dwg format as well as a pdf of the survey control drawing in dwg and pdf format. Fee Proposal Our understanding is that the contract mechanism will be through an amendment to the existing Professional Service Agreement with the City for the road rehabilitation project. GHD proposes to complete this additional scope for the time-and-materials fee not to exceed $14,000 without the prior written authorization of the City. Services not included in this proposal can be provided by a negotiated fee at current rates.

MEETING DATE/TIME: 5/4/2022 ITEM NO: 2022-1630 AGENDA SUMMARY REPORT SUBJECT: Approval of Purchase of a Suspended Air Floatation System in the Amount of $298,920 plus tax and shipping from Heron Innovators, as Approved in the Fiscal Year 2021-2022 Capital Budget, and Approval of Corresponding Budget Amendment Using Wastewater Reserve Funds. DEPARTMENT: Public Works PREPARED BY: Seth Strader, Administrative Analyst PRESENTER: Sean White, Director of Water & Sewer ATTACHMENTS: 1. Heron Proposal Summary: Council will consider approving the purchase of a Suspended Air Flotation System from Heron Innovators in the amount of $298,920, as approved in the Fiscal Year 2021-2022 Capital Budget, and possible approval of a corresponding budget amendment using Wastewater Reserve Funds. Background: In preparation for the 21/22 Fiscal Year budget, Staff prepared and presented, which was subsequently approved and adopted in the budget, a proposal for the replacement of a dissolved air flotation (DAF) system, housed at the Wastewater Treatment Plant. Discussion: The DAF is a critical piece of infrastructure at the WWTP. The DAF thickens biosolids before entering the digesters thru the injection of pressurized air. In the summer of 2021 the pressure vessel for the DAF began to fail from internal corrosion. Water Resources Staff compared the cost of a direct replacement to other alternatives. After comparing costs, and several site visits at similar facilities utilizing alternative technologies, Staff is recommending replacing the DAF with a Suspended Air Flotation (SAF) system. The SAF uses a proprietary frothing agent developed at UC Davis instead of air. This will allow the plant to no longer need three air compressors as well as three 40 horsepower motors. This will greatly reduce maintenance and energy costs. In addition the SAF is significantly more effective at thickening. Provided as Attachment 1 is the proposal from Heron Innovators. It is Staff’s recommendation for Council to approve the purchase of a SAF System from Heron Innovators in the amount of $298,920.00 and approve a budget amendment in the amount of $48,920.00 using Wastewater Reserve Funds. The sole source purchase is recommended based upon the unique and specialized operational needs specific of the City's facility and the Department's evaluation of the SAF System from Heron Innovators as compared to other alternatives. Recommended Action: Approve the purchase of a SAF System from Heron Innovators in the amount of $298,920 plus tax and shipping, as approved in the Fiscal Year 2021-2022 Capital Budget, and approve corresponding budget amendment using Wastewater Reserve Funds.

GENERAL DESCRIPTION OF SAF® Benefits of the SAF® Process The process of using SAF® to bind a particle is particularly effective due to a combination of surface tension and charge (by use of a selected cationic/anionic surfactant) so that it has an affinity for the particle. This allows for a significantly higher percentage of the available air to be used for aiding flotation when compared to other traditional approaches, such as Dissolved Air Flotation (DAF) or Induced Air Flotation (IAF). The SAF® Generator uses a surfactant tailored to the prescribed chemical regiment to create a froth that is approximately 40% air by volume. Surfactant is fed at a concentration of .15 – 1ppm depending on the waste stream. Essentially all the surfactant is skimmed away in the flotation cell. Increased rise rates and robustness of the float result in a more effective removal process that has a significantly smaller footprint than competing technologies. In addition, the bubble is manufactured independent of the process stream, which renders it almost impervious to the effects of process stream temperature. Downstream dewatering and SAF® The robustness of the SAF® float provides skimmed solids that have been largely dewatered through drainage. For this reason, downstream dewatering equipment may become more effective or even unnecessary. Solids removed from the float using the SAF® System contain significantly less water than that from competing technologies Page 63 of 387 Heron Innovators, Inc.

MEETING DATE/TIME: 5/4/2022 ITEM NO: 2022-1632 AGENDA SUMMARY REPORT SUBJECT: Consideration of Accepting $143,128.93 from the County of Mendocino in One Time Pacific Gas and Electric Disaster Settlement Funds to Reimburse the Ukiah Valley Fire Authority for the Purchase of Emergency Medical Transport Equipment and Receive Report on those Purchases; Authorized the City Manager to Execute Corresponding Agreement with the County; and Approval of Corresponding Budget Amendments. DEPARTMENT: Fire PREPARED BY: Doug Hutchison, Fire Chief PRESENTER: Doug Hutchison- Fire Chief, Ukiah Valley Fire Authority ATTACHMENTS: 1. Ukiah Fire updated quote (002) 2. Ukiah Valley Fire District $143128.95 21-22 EO BOS 21-223 Summary: Council will consider accepting $143,128.95 from the County of Mendocino from one time PG&E Disaster Settlement funds to reimburse the Ukiah Valley Fire Authority for the purchase of Emergency Medical transport equipment, and receive a report on those purchases. Background: The Mendocino County Board of Supervisors (BOS) opted to disburse funds from their settlement with PG&E for the 2017 fires to various community groups. Discussion: As part of the Coastal Valleys EMS request for funding from the BOS, all of the transport agencies in the county were asked to submit any equipment needed to enhance or improve their EMS transport services for funding. UVFA staff identified items that were necessary to provide and enhance the provision of Pre-Hospital Emergency Medical Services in our area, and were subsequently awarded $143,128.95. Originally, Fire Authority staff were informed that the County would pay invoices presented directly so that there would be no expenditure of Fire Authority funds. Subsequent to that understanding, the items were quoted and ordered (See Attachment 1). When the first invoice was presented for payment, it was discovered that the County could only reimburse the Fire Authority, necessitating Fire Authority staff to bring it to Council for approval and report on the purchases per Council guidelines. Recommended Action: Accept $143,128.95 from the County of Mendocino in one time Pacific Gas and Electric (PG&E) Disaster Settlement funds to reimburse the Ukiah Valley Fire Authority for the purchase of Emergency Medical transport equipment and receive a report on those purchases; Authorize the City Manager to execute corresponding agreement the the County of Mendocino; and approval of corresponding budget amendments.

DEPARTMENT: Community Services PREPARED BY: Jake Burgess, Community Services Supervisor PRESENTER: Jake Burgess, Recreation Supervisor ATTACHMENTS: 1. REOA 2022 Contract Summary: The Community Services Department is requesting authorization to execute a new contract with the Redwood Empire Officials Association for sports officiating. Background: The Recreation Division manages officiating service contracts for a variety of sports leagues. Redwood Empire Officials Association (REOA) has provided officiating services for the adult softball and adult basketball leagues since 2009. REOA is the only local provider for this service and a contract with an out-of-the area group would result in increased costs to the programs. The new contract provides for up to five one-year extensions upon mutual agreement of both the City and REOA (Attachment 1). Discussion: Staff is recommending approval of the contract with REOA, thereby securing their services for the 2022 sports league season. Staff is also requesting authorization to enter into up to five one-year extensions upon mutual agreement of both parties. This contract expense is budgeted in the Adult Softball and Adult Basketball Contractual Services accounts. These costs are offset by program revenues from team sponsor payments and individual player fees. Recommended Action: Authorize new contract with Redwood Empire Officials Association for sports officiating, and authorize future contract extensions.

MEETING DATE/TIME: 5/4/2022 ITEM NO: 2022-1636 AGENDA SUMMARY REPORT SUBJECT: Consideration to Award Contract for the Gobbi Street Underground Communications Rework Project, Specification Number 22-03, to Diamond D Construction, in the Amount of $116,649.00, and Approve Budget Amendment in the Amount of $50,000. DEPARTMENT: Electric Utility PREPARED BY: Cindy Sauers, Electric Utility Director PRESENTER: Cindy Sauers, Electric Utility Director ATTACHMENTS: 1. Bid Results - Spec 22-03 - Gobbi Street Underground Communications Rework 2. Bid - Diamond D Summary: The City Council will consider a Staff request to award a contract for the Gobbi Street Underground Communications Rework Project, Specification No. 22-03, and approve a budget amendment in the amount of $50,000. Background: In 1967, the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) established Electric Tariff Rule 20 in response to local government interest in improving the aesthetics of their communities. The Tariff outlines responsibilities and guidelines to provide an equitable distribution of the project costs to all utilities involved. Additionally, it outlines responsibilities and defines the roles of each utility. The City of Ukiah Electric Utility acts as the Lead Agency for joint trench projects within the city. Responsibilities of the Lead Agency include: incorporating other utilities' design into the project, bidding and awarding the contract, providing oversight as the project is constructed, and delineation of the costs to each project participant. These projects can be very complicated, applying several different utilities' specifications into the design and construction. Historically, other utilities, such as AT&T, have provided inspection services to ensure all their requirements are met; however, due to staffing changes and limitations, this support was eliminated and the burden of inspection fell to City Staff. In November 2020, the Gobbi Street Underground joint trench project was completed. The project installed underground infrastructure for electric, telephone and cable TV on Gobbi Street between State Street and Orchard Avenue. Shortly after the completion of the project, Staff redirected its attention to the State Street Undergrounding project. Due to the back-to-back scheduling of these projects, the installation of the wire and equipment to complete Gobbi Street was delayed. When AT&T began the installation of their wire in March, they discovered a few locations where their specifications were not met. Staff met with AT&T to identify what the issues were and how to resolve them. It was agreed that there was a shared responsibility for the corrections on the Gobbi project. To avoid issues in the future, AT&T has agreed to provide a more detailed design incorporating their standards into the drawings, complete a thorough review of the final drawings prior to signing off on the design, and to be available to perform inspections on their infrastructure. Because completion of the project was more than a year ago and the City, as the Lead Agency, signed off on the completion of the project, the original contractor was not obligated to return to complete the repairs. AT&T agreed to provide the material for the repairs on Gobbi Street and the City agreed to complete the construction. AT&T will also be available to complete any inspections. Page 138 of 387 Page 2 of 2 Discussion: On April 8, 2022, the City distributed the plans and specifications to the required bidders' exchanges, publicly advertised the project in the Ukiah Daily Journal, sent copies of the Notice to Bidders to all licensed class A contractors on the City's 2022 Qualified Contractors List, and posted them to the City's website. Staff conducted a mandatory pre-bid meeting with potential contractors to outline the specifics of the project and answer any questions. Sealed proposals were received and opened by the City Clerk on April 28, 2022. Bids were received from 2 contractors (see Attachment 1 for a copy of the bid tabulation). After reviewing the bid responses, it is Staff's recommendation to award the bid to Diamond D Construction, for the lump sum amount of $116,649.00. A copy of their bid is provided as Attachment 2. If the contract is awarded, construction is scheduled to be completed in June. Recommended Action: Award contract for the Gobbi Street Underground Communications Rework Project, Specification Number 22-03, to Diamond D Construction, in the amount of $116.649.00, and approve budget amendment in the amount of $50,000.

DEPARTMENT: City Clerk PREPARED BY: PRESENTER: Shannon Riley, Deputy City Manager ATTACHMENTS: 1. Resolution - 60-day Waiver Summary: City Council will consider adopting a resolution waiving the 60-day notice from County of Mendocino required by Government Code Section 25351 of its intent to lease real property in the city limits. Background: The County notified the City several months ago that they were seeking a suitable location for Probation – GEO Reentry Services (Day Reporting Center) and Social Services – Family and Children’s Services (Ukiah Family Resource Center), though one had not yet been selected. The Government Code requires the County to give the City 60 days advance notice when it leases real property in the city limits. Discussion: The notification required by Government Code section 25351 must occur at least 60 days prior to use and occupancy of the county building, unless the City Council waives the notification requirement by resolution. The Executive Office of Mendocino County has requested a waiver of the 60-day notification requirement to lease property at 1101 S. Dora Street, Ukiah, for use by Probation – GEO Reentry Services (Day Reporting Center) and Social Services – Family and Children’s Services (Ukiah Family Resource Center). Granting the waiver by adopting this Resolution (Attachment 1) will enable the Probation and Social Services departments to begin occupying this location by approximately July 1, 2022. In the absence of such waiver, the County is at risk of losing the office to another prospective tenant. Recommended Action: Adopt Resolution waiving 60-day notice from County of Mendocino, required by Government Code Section 25351, of its intent to lease real property in the city limits at 1101 S. Dora Street, Ukiah, for use by Probation – GEO Reentry Services (Day Reporting Center) and Social Services – Family and Children’s Services (Ukiah Family Resource Center).

MEETING DATE/TIME: 5/4/2022 ITEM NO: 2022-1615 AGENDA SUMMARY REPORT SUBJECT: Approval of a Budget Amendment to Advance 2022-23 CIP Funds to be Used Immediately to 1) Allow Contracting with Comfort Air/Heating Cooling this Fiscal Year in the Amount of $19,500 to Replace the Heating and Cooling System in the Grace Hudson Sunhouse, and 2) Provide Approximately $4000 to Install an Upgraded Electrical Panel to Support the New System. DEPARTMENT: Community Services PREPARED BY: Neil Davis, Community Services Director PRESENTER: Neil Davis, Community Services Director ATTACHMENTS: 1. Comfort Air - Sunhouse HVAC quote Summary: Council will consider approval of a budget amendment to advance 2022-23 CIP funds to be used immediately to 1) allow contracting with Comfort Air/Heating Cooling this fiscal year in the amount of $19,500 to replace the heating and cooling system in the Grace Hudson Sunhouse, and 2) provide approximately $4000 to install an upgraded electrical panel to support the new system. Background: The historic Grace Hudson Sun House is located at Carpenter Park and serves as an interpretive arm of the Grace Hudson Museum. The Sun House, a 1911 redwood Craftsman bungalow home, is situated immediately in front of the Museum and is available for tours. Grace and John Hudson, its owners, together with architect George Wilcox, set out to build a functional, custom Craftsman-style home scaled to the Hudsons’ needs. Fairly modest in size, it nonetheless accommodated Grace’s prodigious artistic output and John’s sizeable ethnographic collections. Keeping in mind the Arts and Crafts goal of uniting designer and craftsperson, the Hudsons actively collaborated with Wilcox on the design of the house, while adding their own creative touches. These include the pink tulips that Grace stenciled on the bedroom walls, the distinctive hat rack built by John Hudson in the entryway, and the unusual pendant lighting fixtures throughout the home. As was often the case in Craftsman dwellings, the architect became the furniture maker as well, when Wilcox designed and built the beautiful sideboard in the dining room that he presented to the Hudsons as a housewarming present. It is believed they moved into the Sun House around New Year’s Day, 1912. Docent-led tours of the Sunhouse provide an integral part of the Grace Hudson Museum experience. Discussion: The heating and cooling system in the Sunhouse is over forty years old and is located in the basement of the facility. It has been failing for years and now has reached a point where it is no longer serviceable and is nonfunctioning. Temperature control is critically important for the preservation of the historic building and its interpretive contents. Many artifacts and historic pieces have been removed from the Sunhouse and placed in protective temperature-controlled storage. Although docent led tours have continued, the reduced collection and lack of temperature control renders the experience less desirable and poses risk of facility and collection deterioration. Options for heating and cooling systems are limited to those whose presence is aesthetically consistent with the historic and interpretive role of the facility. A wide variety of options were considered to ensure the new system is safe, effective, and maintains the historic integrity. Following approved bidding and purchasing processes, Staff received a bid of $19,500 from Comfort Page 161 of 387 Page 2 of 2 Air/Heating Cooling to install a Bryant 95% Furnace, a Bryant 4 Ton Coil, a Bryant 14 SEER Condenser, and thermostat. Please refer to Attachment 1 for a copy of the quote received. Temperature control for the Sunhouse at Grace Hudson Museum was placed in the CIP budget for fiscal year 2022-23. The demands of the new system require an upgrade to the electric box that services the Sunhouse. The combined cost of these two maintenance and safety upgrades is substantially less than the $45,000 placed in the coming year’s CIP budget. Due to the urgency of providing temperature control to protect the building and its contents, Staff is requesting a transfer of $23,500 from this coming year’s budget to cover this immediate need. Recommended Action: Approve a budget amendment to advance 2022-23 CIP funds to be used immediately to 1) allow contracting with Comfort Air/Heating Cooling this fiscal year in the amount of $19,500 to replace the heating and cooling system in the Grace Hudson Sunhouse, and 2) provide approximately $4000 to install an upgraded electrical panel to support the new system.

Provided by the Applicant Summary: City Council will consider 1) Adoption of an Initial Study and Mitigated Negative Declaration; and 2) authorization to issue a Demolition Permit for two structures located at 101 and 105 South Main Street, as recommended by the Demolition Review Committee. Both structures are over the age of 50 years old, and therefore, according to Ukiah City Code, the City Council must hold a public hearing to review and consider the historical and architectural significance of the structures before authorizing the Building Official to issue the Demolition Permit. Background: The ±0.48-acre Project site (APN 002-231-01) is located at the corner of Perkins Street and South Main Street in downtown Ukiah. The parcel is developed with a parking lot and two buildings with separate street addresses: one ±3,328 sf building at 101 South Main Street; and one ±2,880 sf building at 105 South Main Street. A brief history of the buildings is provided below. 101 South Main Street. The existing building was originally constructed in 1921 as a hay barn. The building was constructed to replace the previous hay barn that was destroyed in the 1917 fire that began at a restaurant (currently occupied by a law firm at 116 South State Street, just south of the Ukiah Brewing Company) two blocks west of the site. The existing building was modified significantly between 1938 and 1963 when it was converted for use as a commercial retail establishment. Modifications made to the building during this time included replacing two open bays with windows, replacing the front doors, replacing and reconfiguring the awning, and installing an additional window. The false brick front that defines the building was also modified in 1938. The building currently houses the Dragon’s Lair retail business. The building is listed on the City of Ukiah’s 1985 ‘Historic Resources Survey” (prepared by Historic Environment Consultants) as well as in the updated 1999 “City of Ukiah Architectural Survey” (prepared by P.S. Preservation Services). These documents (herein referred to as the City’s “local historic inventories”) identify the 101 South Main Street building as being listed on the State Register, and eligible for the National Page 164 of 387 Page 2 of 5 Register of Historic Places based on its architecture and "prominent" location. However, as described in detail throughout the Initial Study, after conducting extensive research on the matter, it has been clarified that this is incorrect. According to the State Historic Preservation Office’s (SHPO’s) most recent classification system and database of historic buildings, also known as the “Built Environment Resource Directory” (updated March 2020), the building status code is “5S2”, meaning that the local government has identified it as individually eligible for local listing. As such, the building is not listed on the State of California’s inventory of historic resources or National Register of Historic Places. In 2020, a prospective buyer of the property hired a consultant (APD Preservation, LLC) to prepare Historic Resources Evaluation to evaluate the building’s significance under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). The Evaluation was later updated in 2022 for this Demolition Permit application after it was discovered that the State had updated their database of historic resources and the listing of the building was clarified. See Discussion Section of this Staff Report for more information. 105 South Main Street. According to the Mendocino County Assessor’s records, the building that houses Tom’s Glass repair shop is a warehouse that dates back to 1947. The building is a rectangular, approximately 2,880 sf one-story building located on the south side of the parcel and comprised of silver corrugated metal. This building is not included in either of the city’s local historic inventories, nor is it listed in the State of California’s inventory of historic resources or National Register of Historic Places. On October 28, 2021, an application for a Demolition Permit to demolish both structures was submitted by the property owner. Application materials, including a location map and photos of the existing buildings, are included in Attachment 1. Demolition of the buildings is expected to take approximately three weeks during daylight hours, Monday through Friday. Although the property owner notes that he believes another commercial building/use is the best use of the site, no development is proposed at this time. A detailed Project Description is included within the ISMND, which is included in Attachment 2 and further discussed in the Discussion Section below. On December 28, 2021, the City’s DRC reviewed the Demolition Permit, in accordance with Ukiah City Code Section 3016, which states that buildings more than 50 years old that are proposed for demolition that do not meet the exemption criteria of being either an immediate safety hazard, or an accessory building that is not listed on the local historic inventory, shall be reviewed by the DRC for their historical and architectural significance. Specifically, the following three criteria regarding the structure proposed for demolition shall be reviewed and the DRC shall make a recommendation to the Ukiah City Council (UCC 3016(e)): 1) Has a special or particular quality such as oldest, best example, largest, or last surviving example of its kind; or 2) Exemplifies or reflects special elements of the city’s cultural, social, economic, political, aesthetic, or architectural history; or 3) Is strongly identified with persons or events significant in local, state, or national history. The DRC found that the buildings did not meet any of the aforementioned criteria and recommended that the City Council authorize issuance of the Demolition Permit for 101 South Main Street (2-1 vote; one member absent) and 105 South Main Street (3-0 vote; one member absent). Minutes of the December 28, 2021, DRC meeting are included as Attachment 3. The meeting recording, Staff Report and associated documents, including department and agency referral comments, the Historic Evaluation prepared for the 101 South Main Street building (2020), and public comments received for the meeting can be found online at: https://ukiahca.civicclerk.com/Web/Player.aspx?id=1323&key=-1&mod=-1&mk=-1&nov=0 , or can be accessed through the City’s meetings webpage at: http://www.cityofukiah.com/meetings/. Discussion: The UCC places the authority for adoption of the Initial Study and Mitigated Negative Declaration (ISMND), as well as authorization to the Building Official to proceed with the issuance of the Demolition Permit, with the City Council. Typically, standard construction activities requiring Building Permits (including Demolition Permits) are considered ministerial actions and do not require additional environmental analysis under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). However, because UCC Section 3016 requires discretionary review of Demolition Permits for buildings over 50 years old and the 101 South Main Street building was listed on the city’s local historic inventories, the Project was determined to require additional Page 165 of 387 Page 3 of 5 CEQA review. As such, regardless of the DRC’s recommendation for the City Council to authorize issuance of the Demolition Permit based on their determination that the buildings do not meet the historic significance criteria listed in UCC 3016(e), additional environmental review was conducted. In accordance with CEQA, the Planning Division of the City of Ukiah Community Development Department prepared an Initial Study and Mitigated Negative Declaration (ISMND) for the Project. The Draft ISMND (State Clearinghouse No. 2022030389) was circulated for public review from March 14, 2022, through April 15, 2022. No public comments were received on the ISMND during the public review period. The Draft ISMND and noticing documents can be found online at: http://www.cityofukiah.com/ceqa-review/. As described throughout the ISMND (Attachment 2), the Project would result in a less than significant impact to Aesthetics, Biological Resources, Energy, Geology and Soils, Greenhouse Gases, Hazards Materials, Land Use, Mineral Resources, Noise and Public Services; the Project would have no impact on Agriculture and Forestry Resources, Hydrology and Water Quality, and Population and Housing. However, the Project would have a potential impact to Air Quality, and Cultural/Tribal Cultural Resources if not properly mitigated. Specifically, activities associated with demolition over the three-week construction period could result in temporary direct significant impacts to Air Quality, but would be reduced to less than significant with the implementation of Mitigation Measures AQ-1 through AQ-3, requiring adherence to Mendocino County Air Quality Management District regulations. Regarding Cultural (historic) Resources, the building located at 105 South Main Street is not located on a local, state, or federal historic register. Therefore, no impact to historic resources per CEQA would occur as a result of its demolition. However, as noted above, the building at 101 South Main Street is listed on the city’s local historic inventories warranting additional analysis of its historic significance. A Historic Resource Evaluation was prepared by APD Preservation, LLC (updated January, 2022; Attachment A of the ISMND in Attachment 2 of this Staff Report) to further research and evaluate the building’s historic significance and the Project’s impacts to historic resources under CEQA. In summary, the evaluation (2022) notes that although the building has some character-defining architectural features (such as the false brick front, metal clad siding, and “clipped” corner entrance), the building’s architecture is not historically unique or significant. It also notes that the building “appears” to be significant for its association with post fire development after the 1917 fire and how the block functioned as a service hub for agricultural commerce in the region. The Draft ISMND incorporates information from the evaluation (specifically in Section V.5, Cultural Resources) and concludes that based on substantial evidence, including its listing in the city’s local historic inventories, the building at 101 South Main Street qualifies as a historic resource under CEQA. The Draft ISMND proposes Mitigation Measure CUL-1, requiring photo documentation of the building to catalogue its existence and Mitigation Measure CUL-2, requiring an educational plaque to be erected on-site to acknowledge its historic significance related to the 1917 fire. Because the Project proposes to demolish the building that is not historically significant for its architecture, and does not propose new development at this time, the Draft ISMND found that these mitigation measures are considered adequate for reducing impacts to less than significant levels. As such, impacts to Cultural (historic) Resources were found to be less than significant with implementation of mitigation. However, to ensure a comprehensive evaluation prior to the review of the City Council, Staff conducted additional specific research into UCC Section 3016 and the city’s local inventory. Through this research, Staff found that the local inventories were never adopted by the City. Public Resource Code 5020.1(k) specifically defines “local register of historical resources” as a list of properties officially designated or recognized as historically significant by a local government pursuant to a local ordinance or resolution. Because the city’s local historic inventories were never adopted by ordinance or resolution, the 101 South Main Street building does not meet the criteria listed in Public Resources Code Section 5020.1(k) to qualify as a significant historic resource under CEQA. To be sure, Staff consulted with the City Attorney regarding this determination, and the City Attorney affirmed this information per a verbal conversation on April 12, 2022 . However, the Community Development Department recognizes the importance of the City’s inventory as it relates to local history, and has a precedent of processing Demolition Permits for buildings listed on the inventory featuring local historic significance. As such, Staff finds the analysis in the Draft ISMND and proposed mitigation measures necessary and adequate for reducing potential impacts to historic resources under CEQA. Staff also found Page 166 of 387 Page 4 of 5 that when UCC Section 3016 was adopted (Ordinance 1014; 1998) it was intended to be an interim measure to protect historic buildings in the City until the City updates the local historic inventory and develops a historic preservation policy in place of UCC Section 3016. However, these actions have not been completed to date. This information has been clarified in the Final Draft ISMND (Attachment 2), but no other changes have been made since publication of the Draft ISMND. Per UCC Section 3016(g), Council shall conduct a public hearing to consider the recommendation of the DRC, and to determine if any of the criteria listed in subsection (e) apply to the buildings proposed for demolition. If the City Council determines that any one of the criteria applies, it shall make a corresponding finding to that effect. If the Council finds that the buildings do not meet the three criteria to establish the buildings as historic, the Council should make a finding to that effect, allowing the Demolition Permit to be issued by the Building Official. However, if the Council finds that any of the criteria in the aforementioned section is met, Council shall make a finding to that effect and also consider market analysis information provided by the applicant to determine if a market exists to pursue other options for acquiring or salvaging the building, while issuance of the Demolition Permit is stayed for 90 days. See UCC Section 3016(g) for more information: https://www.codepublishing.com/CA/Ukiah/#!/html/Ukiah03/Ukiah0301-0300.html. Staff considered the DRC’s determination that the buildings do not qualify for the criteria listed in 3016(e) and their recommendation to issue the Demolition Permit, together with the analysis in the ISMND, as well as the information found during the additional research conducted, and agrees that the buildings do not meet the criteria in 3016(e) for the following reasons. Because the 105 South Main Street building is not listed on the city’s local historic inventories, and was unanimously determined by the DRC to not meet this criteria, the analysis below is specific to the 101 South Main Street building. • Although the building is comprised of a particular type of metal that may no longer be common, construction of metal buildings is not uncommon today, and there are several other buildings with metal siding within the city that have a similar appearance. Similarly, the false brick front of the building may be uncommon; however, the downtown area contains several buildings that are comprised of masonry brick. Lastly, it is noted throughout the Historic Evaluation that with all things considered, the “dilapidated”, “utilitarian” building is not considered historically significant for its architecture. • The building has not been used for agricultural-related uses since 1961, and the building has been significantly altered as it was converted to retail. The building alone does not tell the story of historic agricultural practices and historic changes in land use patterns in and around Ukiah. • Whereas the CEQA criteria that was analyzed within the Historic Evaluation and ISMND use the term “is associated”, the UCC criterion being analyzed uses the term “strongly identified”. As previously noted, the 1917 fire began two blocks west of the building and destroyed several buildings that were rebuilt over the next decade. The building is one of many buildings that was rebuilt over the decade following the fire. The city’s local historic inventories mention the 1917 fire, but do not identify the building as being historically significant for this specific reason. The building has an association with the 1917 fire, but this does not exclusively qualify the building as being “strongly identified” with a significant local event. For the reasons discussed above, Staff finds that the buildings do not meet the criteria for historic or architectural significance outlined in UCC Section 3016. Based on Staff’s analysis, and the DRC’s finding that the two buildings do not meet the criteria, and their recommendation to authorize issuance of the Demolition Permit, in addition to the CEQA analysis provided in the ISMND, and additional research regarding UCC Section 3016 outlined above, Staff recommends the City Council adopt the ISMND and authorize issuance of the Demolition Permit for the two structures located at 101 and 105 South Main Street. Findings to adopt the ISMND and authorize the issuance of the Demolition Permit are included in Attachment 4 and the Draft Resolution to Adopt the ISMND is included in Attachment 5. Public correspondence received for this public hearing as of April 26, 2022, is included in Attachment 6. However, in the event Council determines either of the buildings to be historic per UCC Section 3016, supplemental market analysis has been provided by the Page 167 of 387 Page 5 of 5 applicant as Attachment 7 for consideration. If the Council determines that the buildings do not meet the criteria listed in UCC Section 3016(b), Council need not consider this supplemental information. Recommended Action: 1) Adopt the Initial Study and Mitigated Negative Declaration; and 2) Authorize issuance of the Demolition Permit for two structures over 50 years old, located at 101 and 105 South Main Street, based on the Findings included with the Staff Report as Attachment 1.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION 1. Project Location The ±0.48-acre Project site (APN 002-231-01) is located on the corner of Perkins Street and South Main Street in downtown Ukiah, approximately 0.5-mile west of U.S. Highway 101. Both Main Street and Perkins Street are developed with a mixture of commercial, residential and public uses. The parcel is developed with a parking lot and two buildings with separate street addresses: one ±3,328 sf building that has been occupied by the Dragon’s Lair retail business (101 South Main Street); and one ±2,880 sf building that has been occupied by Tom’s Glass repair service (105 South Main Street). Figure 1 below provides a location map, Figure 2 provides an aerial image of the Project site, and Figures 3 and 4 depict the two existing buildings. Figure 1, Project Location Map Page 181 of 387 5 Demolition Permit for Two Buildings Over 50 Years Old 101 and 105 South Main Street Draft Initial Study and Mitigated Negative Declaration City of Ukiah Figure 2, Project Site Aerial Image 2. Environmental Setting and Background The Project site is situated within the City of Ukiah, within the Ukiah Valley in central Mendocino County. The Ukiah Valley is located approximately 30 miles east and inland from the Pacific Ocean as the crow flies. The Ukiah Valley runs north-south for approximately nine miles, with a maximum width of three miles, and elevations varying from approximately 600-feet above mean sea level to approximately 3,000 feet in the hills surrounding the City. Vegetation communities in the Ukiah Valley include mixed oak, chaparral, and manzanita, with some sparse redwood groves. The Russian River enters the valley at the north end and runs south along the valley floor. This area is characterized by a Mediterranean climate; the winters are cool and wet, and the summers are hot and dry. Annual average temperatures for this region range from about 30 to 100 degrees Fahrenheit. Ukiah is located along the Highway 101 corridor and near the east/west intersection of Highway 20, two hours north of the Golden Gate Bridge. Incorporated in 1876, Ukiah is the county seat and largest city in Mendocino County. As noted above, the Project site is developed with two existing buildings and a paved parking lot. The parcel is accessed via a driveway from South Main Street, as well as a driveway located along Perkins Street. Additionally, there is a shared driveway that shares access with the adjacent parcel immediately to the east (225 East Perkins Street) that is currently occupied by Romi’s Brew and BBQ (see Figures 2 through 4). For several decades, buildings on the parcel have been used for Page 182 of 387 6 Demolition Permit for Two Buildings Over 50 Years Old 101 and 105 South Main Street Draft Initial Study and Mitigated Negative Declaration City of Ukiah commercial uses. Vegetation on the site is limited to the following: two California juniper shrubs, one Chinese pistache tree located against the 101101 South Main Street building (east side); blackberry bushes against the 105105 South Main Street building (east side) and four Valley oak trees approximately 14 to 60 ft away from the building. Additionally, large oak trees line the east side of the parcel but are located within the adjacent parcel (see Figure 3). 101 South Main Street (Dragon’s Lair building). The Dragon’s Lair building is located at the southeast corner of the parcel at the intersection of Perkins Street and South Main Street, fronting on both streets. The building consists of one story with a roughly rectangular footprint, and “chamfered” or “clipped” flat northwest corner to accommodate the primary entrance. It is comprised of red and peach colored pressed tin siding on west and north elevations and corrugated metal siding on the east and south elevations (see Figures 2-4). The existing approximately 3,328 sf building originally dates from 1921 and was included in the City of Ukiah’s 1985 ‘Historic Resources Survey” (prepared by Historic Environment Consultants) and updated in 1999 by the “City of Ukiah Architectural Survey” (prepared by P.S. Preservation Services). According to the 1985 survey, the building was assigned a “5” status code, which includes buildings that are ineligible for the national register, but are identified as having historic importance at the local level. Specifically, the 1985 survey notes that the building is representative of a type of commercial structure common to its era that is a “rather rare survivor of the type in Ukiah, and is located prominently. Its surfacing materials and form create a rather strong image of past lifestyles.” The 1999 survey was completed as an update to the 1985 survey, and reviewed each property’s eligibility for the National Register of Historic Places. The 1999 survey notes that the building is vernacular commercial style and originally constructed in 1921 as a hay barn and feed store. The survey notes that the pressed metal clad building is “an excellent example of its type and the only one left in Ukiah”, and was therefore assigned a “3S” status code, which is defined as appearing to be eligible for the National Register as an individual property through survey information. However, the 1999 survey does not provide additional information regarding the change in status from the 1985 survey. Although the 1999 survey identifies the building as eligible for the National Register, this does not accurately depict the building’s status. In order for a building to be listed on the National Register of Historic Places, a building must first be listed on the State Register. In order to be listed on the State Register the survey form completed by the local jurisdiction must be submitted to State of California’s Office of Historic Preservation (SHPO) for review. SHPO then reviews the survey forms and determines if the building is eligible for listing on the State Register. Once listed on the State Register SHPO must submit a nomination form to the National Park Service for review and consideration. Upon extensive research, it was determined that Dragon’s Lair building is not listed on either the State or Federal Registers. This is further supported by SHPO’s most recent classification system and database of historic buildings, also known as the “Built Environment Resource Directory” (updated March, 2020), which identifies the building status code as “5S2”, meaning that the local government has identified it as individually eligible for local listing. As such, the building is not listed on the State Register, nor is it identified as eligible for the National Register of Historic Places. A Historic Resource Evaluation was prepared by APD Preservation, LLC (January, 2020; revised in January, 2022) to further research and evaluate the building’s historic significance (Attachment A). The evaluation found that the original building was constructed in 1857 was replaced once in 1890 with a new hay barn but was destroyed during the 1917 fire that began at a restaurant (currently occupied by a law firm at 116 South State Street, just south of the Ukiah Brewing Company) two blocks west of the building. A new building was constructed in 1921 but was significantly modified between 1938 and 1963 when it was converted to retail. Modifications made to the building during this time included replacing two open bays with windows, replacing the front doors, replacing and reconfiguring the awning, and installing an additional window. The false front that most defines the building was Page 183 of 387 7 Demolition Permit for Two Buildings Over 50 Years Old 101 and 105 South Main Street Draft Initial Study and Mitigated Negative Declaration City of Ukiah modified in 1938, but retains its basic early twentieth century appearance. During this time, the building was occupied by several feed stores, a cheese and wine store, and office/retail space. The existing Dragon’s Lair retail business has been within the building since 1995. The evaluation (2022) notes that although it has some character-defining architectural features, the building’s architecture is not historically significant. It also notes that the building is considered most significant for its association with post fire development after the 1917 fire and how the block functioned as a service hub for agricultural commerce in the region. The evaluation states, “The building appears to be significant for its association with the post-fire redevelopment of Ukiah. Its period of significance is 1921 (its inferred construction date), and the building retains enough physical integrity to convey its early twentieth century commercial origins, which render it historic. The dilapidated utilitarian building does not appear to be significant for its architectural merit.” See Section V.5, Cultural Resources, for more information. 105 South Main Street (Tom’s Glass building). According to the Mendocino County Assessor’s records, the Tom’s Glass building is a warehouse that dates back to 1947. The building is a rectangular approximately 2,880 sf one-story building located on the south side of the parcel and comprised of silver corrugated metal. There is a firewall between the Tom’s Glass building and the building on the adjacent parcel located at 123 South Main Street (currently occupied by the Little Brown Bear business). However, the firewall was constructed as part of construction for 123 South Main Street (Little Brown Bear) and is not located within the boundaries of the Project site. As such, the firewall is not proposed for demolition. The Tom’s Glass building is not included in either of the City’s 1985 and 1999 historic inventories surveys, nor is it listed in the State of California’s inventory of historic resources or National Register of Historic Places. Because the building is not listed in a local, state or national register, a detailed Historic Resource Evaluation was not prepared. Per Ukiah City Code Section 3016(b), buildings over 50 years old proposed for demolition that do not meet the exemption criteria of being either an immediate safety hazard, or an accessory building that is not listed on the local historic inventory, shall be reviewed for their historic or architectural significance. Specifically, the City’s Demolition Review Committee shall review the proposal and make a recommendation to the Ukiah City Council. Because the buildings do not meet the exemption criteria noted within the code, on December 28, 2021, the City’s Demolition Review Committee reviewed the Project and voted to recommend demolition of both buildings to the City Council. See Section V.11, Land Use and Planning, for more information. This Initial Study is intended to analyze the impacts associated with demolition of the buildings, in accordance with CEQA. The Demolition Permit, together with this Initial Study, will be reviewed by City Council for final consideration.

Standard demolition construction techniques and equipment including a mechanical ram, dump truck, pickup truck, excavator, backhoe, front end loader, bobcat & stinger for concrete demolition would be used. The existing buildings will be disassembled via mechanical means and by hand labor where necessary. Mechanical means will include large track-driven excavators with mechanical arms. On- site concrete pads and foundations will be demolished with mechanical rams. Demolished concrete and rebar will be off-hauled and recycled at a local rock quarry. Other demolished debris will be loaded into dump trucks staged on site. Dump trucks would off-haul debris and deliver to the Ukiah Transfer Station & Recycling Center, where metal materials would be recycled and non-recyclable materials would be disposed. Demolition would take approximately three weeks with a crew of six construction workers. All work would be performed Monday through Friday, during daylight hours (between the hours of 7:00 a.m. and 7:00 p.m., depending on the season). Construction equipment would be staged on-site and all activities will be performed within the site boundaries. It is anticipated that two to three dump truck trips a day (Monday through Friday) would be necessary to transfer demolished materials for disposal and recycling. Construction equipment and trucks would utilize existing driveways and access routes on Main and Perkins Streets. No road closures are anticipated for the Project. The existing Chinese pistache tree located on the south side of the building and the two Juniper shrubs located on the east side of the building would be removed for demolition, as they are located against the building and partially growing into the foundation. In addition, the blackberry would be removed. None of the oak trees on-site would be removed. Dust on the site will be minimized with the use of a Page 185 of 387 9 Demolition Permit for Two Buildings Over 50 Years Old 101 and 105 South Main Street Draft Initial Study and Mitigated Negative Declaration City of Ukiah water truck. Although the property owner has noted that he believes another commercial building/use is the best use of the site, no development is proposed at this time. The application was referred to departments and agencies with jurisdiction or interest in the Project, including the City of Ukiah Community Development Department- Building Official, City of Ukiah Police Department, City of Ukiah Public Works Department, City of Ukiah Electric Utility Department, Ukiah Valley Fire Authority, Mendocino County Air Quality Management District, Mendocino County Environmental Health Department, and the Mendocino County Historic Society. Comments and requirements identified by these entities have been included as Conditions of Approval for the permit and the applicant will obtain all necessary regulatory permits.

ENVIRONMENTAL FACTORS POTENTIALLY AFFECTED Purpose of the Initial Environmental Study: This Initial Study has been prepared consistent with CEQA Guidelines Section 15063, to determine if the Project, as proposed, would have a significant impact upon the environment. The environmental factors checked below would be potentially affected by this Project, involving at least one impact that is a "Potentially Significant Impact" as indicated by the checklist on the following pages. Aesthetics Agriculture & Forestry Air Quality Biological Resources Cultural Resources Energy Geology / Soils Greenhouse Gas Emissions Hazards & Hazardous Materials Hydrology/Water Quality Land Use / Planning Mineral Resources Noise Population / Housing Public Services Recreation Transportation Tribal Cultural Resources Utilities/Service Systems Wildfire Mandatory Findings of Significance Summary of Findings: The Project site is developed with a parking lot and two buildings with separate street addresses: one ±3,328 sf building that has been occupied by the Dragon’s Lair retail business (101 South Main Street); and one ±2,880 sf building that has been occupied by Tom’s Glass repair service (105 South Main Street). Both of the buildings are more than 50 years old and are proposed for demolition; no new development is proposed. The Tom’s Glass building at 105 South Main Street is not located on a local, state or national register for historic places. However, the Dragon’s Lair building at 101 South Main Street is identified in the 1985 “Ukiah Historic Resource Survey” and the 1999 “City of Ukiah Architectural Survey” as a local historic resource, and is included in the State of California’s “Built Environmental Resource Database (BERD)” with a designation of “5S2,” meaning that a local government has recognized the resource as “eligible for local listing or designation.” However, the building is not listed on the State Register or National Register of Historic Places. Per Ukiah City Code Section 3016(b), buildings over 50 years old proposed for demolition that do not meet the exemption criteria of being either an immediate safety hazard, or an accessory building that is not listed on the local historic inventory, shall be reviewed for their historic or architectural significance. Specifically, the City’s Demolition Review Committee shall review the proposal and make a recommendation to the Ukiah City Council. Because the buildings do not meet the exemption criteria noted within the code, on December 28, 2021, the City’s Demolition Review Committee reviewed the Project and voted to recommend demolition of both buildings to the City Council. See Section V.11, Land Use and Planning, for more information. This Initial Study is intended to analyze the impacts associated with demolition of the buildings, in accordance with CEQA. The Demolition Permit, together with this Initial Study, will be reviewed by City Council for final consideration. As described and analyzed throughout the Initial Study, impacts to Air Quality, Cultural and Tribal Cultural Resources could be significant. However, with the implementation of mitigation measures, all impacts would be reduced to less than significant. Specifically, temporary activities associated with Page 187 of 387 11 Demolition Permit for Two Buildings Over 50 Years Old 101 and 105 South Main Street Draft Initial Study and Mitigated Negative Declaration City of Ukiah demolition over the three-week construction period could result in direct significant impacts to Air Quality, but would be reduced to less than significant with the implementation of Mitigation Measures AQ-1 through AQ-3, requiring adherence to Mendocino County Air Quality Management District regulations. The Tom’s Glass building is not located on a local, state, or federal historic register. Therefore, no impact to historic resources would occur as a result of its demolition. However, because the Dragon’s Lair building qualifies as a local historic resource under CEQA that would be demolished, the Project would result in a significant impact to that resource if not properly mitigated. Mitigation Measure CUL-1 would require photo documentation of the building to catalogue its existence and Mitigation Measure CUL-2 requires an educational plaque to be erected on-site to acknowledge its historic significance related to the 1917 fire. Because the Project proposes to demolish the building that is not historically significant for its architecture, and does not propose new development at this time, these mitigation measures are considered adequate for reducing impacts to less than significant levels. As such, impacts to historic resources would be less than significant with implementation of mitigation. The Project would result in either no impact, or less than significant impact to all other resources. See Section V, Evaluation of Environmental Impacts, for more information. The Draft ISMND was circulated for public review from March 14, 2022 through April 15, 2022. No comments were received on the ISMND during the public review period. However, to ensure a comprehensive evaluation prior to the review and consideration of the ISMND by the City Council, City Community Development Department Staff conducted specific research into UCC Section 3016 and the City’s local historic inventories (1985 and 1999). Through this research, Staff found that the local inventories were never adopted by the City. Public Resource Code 5020.1(k) specifically defines “local register of historical resources” as a list of properties officially designated or recognized as historically significant by a local government pursuant to a local ordinance or resolution. Because the City’s local historic inventories were never adopted by ordinance or resolution, the 101 South Main Street building does not meet the criteria listed in Public Resources Code Section 5020.1(k) to qualify as a significant historic resource under CEQA. The City’s Community Development staff consulted with the City Attorney regarding this determination, and the City Attorney affirmed this information per a verbal conversation on April 12, 2022. However, the City recognizes the importance of the local historic inventories as it relates to local history, and has a precedent of processing Demolition Permits for buildings listed on the inventory featuring local historic significance. As such, the Community Development Department finds the analysis and proposed mitigation measures contained within this ISMND necessary and adequate for reducing potential impacts to historic resources.

EVALUATION OF ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS The purpose of this Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration (IS/MND) is to provide an analysis of the potential environmental consequences as a result of the proposed Project. The environmental evaluation relied on the following categories of impacts, noted as column headings in the IS checklist, in accordance with CEQA Guidelines Appendix G. “Potentially Significant Impact” is appropriate if there is substantial evidence that an effect may be significant. If there are one or more “Potentially Significant Impact” entries when the determination is made, an EIR is required. Less Than Significant With Mitigation Incorporated” applies where the incorporation of mitigation measures has reduced an effect from “Potentially Significant Impact” to a “Less Than Significant Impact.” “Less Than Significant Impact” applies where the Project would not result in a significant effect (i.e., the Project impact would be less than significant without the need to incorporate mitigation). “No Impact” applies where the Project would not result in any impact in the category or the category does not apply. This may be because the impact category does not apply to the proposed Project (for instance, the Project Site is not within a surface fault rupture hazard zone), or because of other project- specific factors. 1. Aesthetics AESTHETICS. Would the project: Significant Impact Less Than Significant with Mitigation Less Than Significant Impact No Impact a) Have a substantial adverse effect on a scenic vista? b) Substantially damage scenic resources, including, but not limited to, trees, rock outcroppings, and historic buildings within a state scenic highway? c) In nonurbanized areas, substantially degrade the existing visual character or quality of public views of the site and its surroundings? (Public views are those that are experienced from publicly accessible vantage point). If the project is in an urbanized area, would the project conflict with applicable zoning and other regulations governing scenic quality? d) Create a new source of substantial light or glare which would adversely affect day or nighttime views in the area? Significance Criteria: Aesthetic impacts would be significant if the Project resulted in the obstruction of any scenic vista open to the public, damage to significant scenic resources within a designated Page 190 of 387 14 Demolition Permit for Two Buildings Over 50 Years Old 101 and 105 South Main Street Draft Initial Study and Mitigated Negative Declaration City of Ukiah State scenic highway, substantial degradation to the existing visual character or quality of the site and its surroundings from public views, or generate new sources of light or glare that would adversely affect day or nighttime views in the area, including that which would directly illuminate or reflect upon adjacent property or could be directly seen by motorists or persons residing, working or otherwise situated within sight of the Project. Environmental Setting: Views of expansive hillsides, mostly within the County’s jurisdiction, surround the City. Some hillsides are densely forested with evergreen trees, while others are relatively open in comparison, dominated by mature oak trees set amid scrub and grasslands. Specific to resources within the City limits, one of the most notable scenic resources are the Western Hills, rising above the valley floor on the west side of Ukiah. Views on the Valley floor within the City of Ukiah include those typical of existing residential and commercial development and the majority of the land within the City limits is previously developed. In addition, some views of agricultural land uses within the City limits, or immediately outside of City limits, are available. Generally speaking, scenic vistas are typically described as areas of natural beauty with features such as topography, watercourses, rock outcrops, and natural vegetation that contribute to the landscape’s quality. Noted throughout the City of Ukiah’s 1995 General Plan are views of hillsides, open space areas and agricultural areas as scenic resources within the Ukiah Valley. Water in the form of creeks, streams, and rivers is often a prominent feature in the scenic landscape as well. The General Plan generally identifies U.S. Highway 101 through the entire Ukiah Valley as a local scenic corridor, but does not identify location-specific scenic resources within the City limits. According to the California Department of Transportation’s (Caltrans) State Scenic Highway System Map, there are no designated state scenic highways within the vicinity of the Project. In addition, there are no highways identified as eligible for state designation. From the Project site, partial views Western Hills are available in the background to the west, while commercial and residential development within the downtown area development is visible in the foreground in all directions. Example views are shown in Figures 5 and 6 below. Figure 5, Views Facing West Page 191 of 387 15 Demolition Permit for Two Buildings Over 50 Years Old 101 and 105 South Main Street Draft Initial Study and Mitigated Negative Declaration City of Ukiah Figure 6, Views Facing East Discussion: (a and c) Less than Significant. As noted in the Project Description and shown in Figures 2-6, the Project site consists of a developed parcel with two buildings and a paved parking lot. The Tom’s Glass building (105 South Main Street) is a rectangular one-story building located on the south side of the parcel and made of silver corrugated metal. The Dragon’s Lair building (101 South Main Street) is located at the southeast corner of the parcel and intersection of Perkins Street and South Main Street, fronting on both streets. It is a one-story building with a roughly rectangular footprint, with “chamfered” or “clipped” flat northwest corner to accommodate the primary entrance. It is comprised of red/peach colored pressed tin siding on west and north elevations and corrugated metal siding on the east and south elevations. There is a painted mural of a dragon on the north side of the building and white columns painted on the east side. As noted in the Historic Resources Evaluation (2020; Attachment A), the building has some character defining features including the false front, irregular window placement, flat entrance on the northwest corner, and a gable roof. However, according to the Historic Resources Evaluation, “The dilapidated utilitarian building does not appear to be significant for its architectural merit.” Demolition of the buildings could result in temporary visual impacts from temporary construction equipment on-site and piled materials temporarily waiting for transport to the landfill. However, construction is anticipated to take approximately three weeks and occur during daylight hours, between 7:00 a.m. and 7:00 p.m. Demolition of the buildings would not have a substantial negative effect on available views of the nearest scenic resource, the Western Hills, as no new buildings are proposed that could potentially further restrict views of this resource. Once the buildings are demolished, the site would be cleared and remain vacant until a proposal for development is submitted by a future applicant and approved through the discretionary process. All new development would be subject to the requirements contained within the Downtown Zoning Code, a form-based code with design guidelines related to aesthetics. In addition, all new development would be reviewed by the City’s Design Review Board. For the aforementioned reasons, the Project would not result in a significant impact to scenic vistas and would not degrade the existing visual character of the site or vicinity. Impacts would be less than significant. (c) Less than significant impact. Although the General Plan notes that U.S. Highway 101 provides scenic views throughout the Ukiah Valley, it does not provide specific information regarding these Page 192 of 387 16 Demolition Permit for Two Buildings Over 50 Years Old 101 and 105 South Main Street Draft Initial Study and Mitigated Negative Declaration City of Ukiah views within the City limits. In addition, U.S. Highway 101 is approximately 0.5 mi east of the Project and does not offer clear views of the Project site, nor existing buildings due to the distance and other development in the downtown area. Although three trees located against the Dragon’s Lair building would be removed for demolition, the trees are not listed on the City’s Heritage Trees list, nor are they noted as species that should be preserved within the Downtown Zoning Code (UCC Section 9229). In addition, all of the oak trees, which are identified as species that should be preserved, would remain. As noted above in discussion a and c, the Project would not negatively impact existing views of the Western Hills, which are also available from the highway. Lastly, there are no designated state scenic highways within the vicinity of the Project, which is what is analyzed under this criterion. Therefore, the Project would not substantially damage scenic resources within view of a state scenic highway. For the aforementioned reasons, impacts would be less than significant. (d) Less than significant impact. Existing development with reflective materials such as metal and windows, as well as street signs, and parked and moving vehicles are existing sources of glare during daylight hours. Street lights, vehicle headlights, and lighting associated with business in the vicinity of the Project are existing sources of light at nighttime. Construction would take place between daylight hours and would not occur outside of 7:00 a.m. and 7:00 p.m., depending on the season the work is conducted within. As such, the Project would not result in a new source of substantial light or glare which would adversely affect day or nighttime views. Impacts would be less than significant. Mitigation Measures: None Page 193 of 387 17 Demolition Permit for Two Buildings Over 50 Years Old 101 and 105 South Main Street Draft Initial Study and Mitigated Negative Declaration City of Ukiah 2. Agriculture and Forestry Resources AGRICULTURE AND FORESTRY RESOURCES. Would the project: Significant Impact Less Than Significant with Mitigation Less Than Significant Impact No Impact a) Convert Prime Farmland, Unique Farmland, or Farmland of Statewide Importance (Farmland), as shown on the maps prepared pursuant to the Farmland Mapping and Monitoring Program of the California Resources Agency, to non-agricultural use? b) Conflict with existing zoning for agricultural use, or a Williamson Act contract? c) Conflict with existing zoning for, or cause rezoning of, forest land (as defined in Public Resources Code section 12220(g)), timberland (as defined by Public Resources Code section 4526), or timberland zoned Timberland Production (as defined by Government Code section 51104(g))? d) Result in the loss of forest land or conversion of forest land to non-forest use? e) Involve other changes in the existing environment which, due to their location or nature, could result in conversion of Farmland, to non-agricultural use or conversion of forest land to non-forest use? Significance Criteria: The Proposed Project would have a potentially significant impact on agricultural resources if it would convert prime farmland to a non-agricultural use, conflict with a Williamson Act contract, or disrupt a viable and locally important agricultural use. The Project would have a potentially significant impact on forestry resources if it would result in the loss, rezoning or conversion of forestland to a non-forest use. Environmental Setting: Early agricultural efforts in the Ukiah Valley included the raising of livestock, and the growing of various grains, hay, alfalfa, and hops. When the Northwestern Pacific Railroad was completed in 1889; prunes, potatoes, pears, and hops could be grown and sent to San Francisco and other regional markets. Wine grapes were planted, and irrigation was practiced on a small scale. Through the 1950s, hops, pears, prunes and grapes were the most widely planted crops in the Ukiah Valley. After the railroad was completed, lumber mills sprang up in the Ukiah Valley and became the major industry in Mendocino County as trains took redwood logs and processed boards south to the San Francisco region. Today, much of the active agricultural land is located on the Valley floor and lower elevations along the Russian River system. Only a limited percentage of the Valley’s agricultural lands are currently protected under Williamson Act Agricultural Preserve contracts. According to the County of Mendocino’s Public GIS system, there are no Williamson Act contracts within the Project site or immediate vicinity. Page 194 of 387 18 Demolition Permit for Two Buildings Over 50 Years Old 101 and 105 South Main Street Draft Initial Study and Mitigated Negative Declaration City of Ukiah There are no zoning districts within the City limits for Agriculture or Timber Preserve. While there is an overlay for agriculture in the Zoning Ordinance, it is not applied over any parcel within the City limits. There are a small number of City parcels that have current agricultural uses such as existing vineyards. However, these are ongoing non-conforming uses within non-agricultural zoning districts. According to the California Department of Conservation Farmland Mapping & Monitoring Program, California Important Farmland Finder, the majority of lands within the City of Ukiah are identified as “Urban Built-Up Land”. Discussion: (a-e) No Impact. According to the California Department of Conservation Farmland Mapping & Monitoring Program, California Important Farmland Finder, the Project site is designated as “Urban Built-Up Land” and does not contain Unique Farmland, or Farmland of Statewide Importance. As such, the Project would not convert Farmland, conflict with existing zoning for agriculture or forest land, and would not involve changes to the environment that would result in the conversion of agricultural resources to non-agriculture uses. No impact would occur. Mitigation Measures: None 3. Air Quality AIR QUALITY. Where available, the significance criteria established by the applicable air quality management district or air pollution control district may be relied upon to make the following determinations. Would the project: Potentially Significant Impact Less Than Significant with Mitigation Less Than Significant Impact No Impact a) Conflict with or obstruct implementation of the applicable air quality plan? b) Result in a cumulatively considerable net increase of any criteria pollutant for which the project region is non-attainment under an applicable federal or state ambient air quality standard? c) Expose sensitive receptors to substantial pollutant concentrations? d) Result in other emissions (such as those leading to odors) adversely affecting a substantial number of people? Significance Criteria: The Proposed Project would have a significant impact to air quality if it would conflict with an air quality plan, result in a cumulatively considerable net increase of criteria pollutant which the Mendocino County Air Quality Management District (MCAQMD) has designated as non- attainment, expose sensitive receptors to substantial concentrations of air pollutants, or result in emissions that create objectionable odors or otherwise adversely affect a substantial number of people. Page 195 of 387 19 Demolition Permit for Two Buildings Over 50 Years Old 101 and 105 South Main Street Draft Initial Study and Mitigated Negative Declaration City of Ukiah Environmental Setting: The Project is located within the North Coast Air Basin (NCAB), which includes Del Norte, Humboldt, Trinity, Mendocino, and northern Sonoma Counties, and is under the jurisdiction of the Mendocino County Air Quality Management District (MCAQMD). The area’s climate is considered Mediterranean, with warm, dry summers and cooler, wet winters. Summer high temperatures average in the 90s with high temperatures on very warm days exceeding 105 degrees. Summer low temperatures range between 50-60 degrees. Winter high temperatures generally range in the 50s and 60s. The average annual temperature is 58 degrees. Winter cold-air inversions are common in the Valley from November to February. Prevailing winds are generally from the north. Prevailing strong summer winds come from the northwest; however, winds can come from the south and east under certain short-lived conditions. In early autumn, strong, dry offshore winds may occur for several days in a row, which may cause air pollution created in the Sacramento Valley, Santa Rosa Plain, or even San Francisco Bay Area to move into the Ukiah Valley. The MCAQMD, which includes the City of Ukiah and surrounding areas, is designated as non- attainment for the State Standard for airborne particulate matter less than 10 microns in size (PM10). Particulate matter (PM) has significant documented health effects. The California Clean Air Act requires that any district that does not meet the PM10 standard make continuing progress to attain the standard at the earliest practicable date. The primary sources of PM10 are wood combustion emissions, fugitive dust from construction projects, automobile emissions and industry. Non- attainment of PM10 is most likely to occur during inversions in the winter. Regulation 1 of the MCAQMD contains regulations (known as “Rules”) to regulate particulate matter; these Rules prohibit activities that would result in the injury, detriment, or annoyance of a considerable number of people, or which endanger the health and safety of the public. The MCAQMD also provides the following significance thresholds for construction emissions: 1. 54 pounds per day of ROG (reactive organic gas) 2. 54 pounds per day of NOx (oxides of nitrogen as nitrogen dioxide) 3. 82 pounds per day of PM10 (particulate matter less than 10 microns in size) 4. 54 pounds per day of PM2.5 (airborne particulate matter with a diameter of 2.5 microns or less) 5. Best Management Practices for Fugitive Dust – PM10 and PM2.5 Discussion: (a-d) Less than significant with mitigation. Typically, short-term construction related air quality impacts result from large projects requiring a significant amount of grading, demolition, or new construction that results in increased emission sand dust. Additionally, projects that require a large amount of vehicle trips and use of diesel equipment over an extended period (months) of time can result in air quality impacts. Long-term air quality impacts are typically from land uses that produce a significant amount of emissions, or sources of dust or other airborne irritants. As described in the Project Description, standard demolition construction techniques and equipment including a mechanical ram, dump trucks, excavator, pickup truck, backhoe, front end loader, bobcat & stinger for concrete demolition would be used. The existing buildings will be disassembled via mechanical means and by hand labor where necessary. Mechanical means will include large track driven excavators with mechanical arms. On-site concrete pads and foundations will be demolished with mechanical rams. Demolished concrete and rebar will be off hauled and recycled at a local rock quarry. Other demolished debris will be loaded into dump trucks staged on site. Dump trucks would off-haul debris and deliver to the Ukiah Transfer Station & Recycling Center, where metal materials would be recycled and non-recyclable materials would be disposed of. Demolition would take approximately three weeks with a crew of six construction workers. All work would be performed during Page 196 of 387 20 Demolition Permit for Two Buildings Over 50 Years Old 101 and 105 South Main Street Draft Initial Study and Mitigated Negative Declaration City of Ukiah daylight hours and would not occur outside of 7:00 a.m. and 7:00 p.m., depending on the season the work is conducted within. The Project is anticipated to produce up to five dump truck trips per day to haul materials off-site, in addition to six vehicle trips for construction workers, for a total of 11 trips per day. Demolition activities including the use of diesel engine equipment would be subject MCAQMD regulations intended to address air quality impacts. Specifically, MCAQMD has a set of standard Best Management Practices (BMPs) for projects involving demolition, grading, construction, and the use of diesel engine equipment that could result in emissions or fugitive dust. These regulations have been incorporated into Mitigation Measures AQ-1 and AQ-2. Additionally, demolition of all commercial buildings are subject to the requirements of MCAQMD Regulation 1, Rule 492, National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAPS) for asbestos. As required by Mitigation Measure AQ-3, prior to receiving a demolition permit from the City, the MCAQMD requires the applicant to complete an Asbestos Survey, submit the results to the MCAQMD, and obtain written authorization indicating that all requirements have been met. The nearest “sensitive receptor” (includes schools, libraries, child care facilities, health care facilities, senior facilities, and residences) is the Mendocino County Library (Ukiah Branch), located at 105 North Main Street, approximately 68 ft (0.1 mi) north of the site. Additional sensitive receptors in the area include the following: residences including the Circle Trailer Park, located at 317 North Main Street, approximately 676 ft (0.13 mi) north of the site; a single-family residence located at 412 South Main Street, approximately 763 ft (0.14 mi) south of the site; and Adventist Health Ukiah Valley Hospital, located at 275 Hospital Drive, approximately 1,087 ft (0.21 mi) northeast of site. The nearest school is South Valley High School, located at 429 South Dora Street, approximately 1,880 ft (0.36 mi) southwest of the Project site.1 Demolition activities have the potential to expose sensitive receptors to diesel particulate, fugitive emissions and dust. However, implementation of Mitigation Measures AQ-1 and AQ-3 below, the would reduce impacts to sensitive receptors over the three-week construction period. In addition, the Project would not exceed the construction thresholds established by the MCAQMD, and air quality impacts associated with short-term construction would be less than significant with mitigation. Because the Project does not propose new development, no impact would occur once demolition is complete. The nature of operational air emissions is largely a cumulative impact. As a result, no single project is sufficient in size to, by itself, result in nonattainment of ambient air quality standards. Instead, a project’s individual emissions contribute to existing cumulatively significant adverse air quality impacts. The MCAQMD developed the operational thresholds of significance based on the level above which a project’s individual emissions would result in a cumulatively considerable contribution to the North Coast Air Basin’s existing air quality conditions. Therefore, a project that exceeds the MCAQMD operational thresholds would also be a cumulatively considerable contribution to a significant cumulative impact. However, because the Project does not propose new development that would result in operational emissions, no cumulative impact would occur. Based on the aforementioned, air quality impacts would be less than significant with mitigation. 1 Instilling Goodness Elementary appears on Google Earth as being located near the Mendocino County Superior Court House, located at 100 North State Street. However, it was confirmed that the school is located in Talmage approximately 2.5 miles southeast, and there are no classes at this location.

Biological Resources BIOLOGICAL RESOURCES. Would the project: Significant Impact Less Than Significant with Mitigation Less Than Significant Impact No Impact a) Have a substantial adverse effect, either directly or through habitat modifications, on any species identified as a candidate, sensitive, or special status species in local or regional plans, policies, or regulations, or by the California Department of Fish and Wildlife or U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service? b) Have a substantial adverse effect on any riparian habitat or other sensitive natural community identified in local or regional plans, policies, regulations or by the California Department of Fish and Wildlife or U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service? c) Have a substantial adverse effect on state or federally protected wetlands (including, but not limited to, marsh, vernal pool, coastal, etc.) through direct removal, filling, hydrological interruption, or other means? d) Interfere substantially with the movement of any native resident or migratory fish or wildlife species or with established native resident or migratory wildlife corridors, or impede the use of native wildlife nursery sites? e) Conflict with any local policies or ordinances protecting biological resources, such as a tree preservation policy or ordinance? f) Conflict with the provisions of an adopted Habitat Conservation Plan, Natural Community Conservation Plan, or other approved local, regional, or state habitat conservation plan? Significance Criteria: Project impacts upon biological resources would be significant if any of the following resulted: substantial direct or indirect effect on any species identified as a candidate, sensitive, or special status species in local/regional plans, policies, or regulations, or by the California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW) or U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) or any species protected under provisions of the Migratory Bird treaty Act (e.g. burrowing owls); substantial effect upon riparian habitat or other sensitive natural communities identified in local/regional plans, policies, or regulations or by the agencies listed above; substantial effect (e.g., fill, removal, hydrologic interruption) upon state or federally protected wetlands; substantially interfere with movement of native resident or migratory wildlife species or with established native resident or migratory wildlife corridors; conflict with any local policies/ordinances that protect biological resources or conflict with a habitat conservation plan. Page 199 of 387 23 Demolition Permit for Two Buildings Over 50 Years Old 101 and 105 South Main Street Draft Initial Study and Mitigated Negative Declaration City of Ukiah Environmental Setting: As noted in the Project Description, the Project site is located within the downtown area of Ukiah and surrounded by existing development. The site is developed with two buildings and a paved parking lot. Vegetation on the site is limited to the following: two California juniper shrubs (Juniperus californica), one Chinese pistache tree (Pistacia chinensis) located against the Dragon’s Lair building (east side); Himalayan blackberry (Rubus armeniacus) against the Tom’s Glass building (east side) and four Valley oak trees (Quercus lobata) approximately 14 to 60 ft away from the building. Additionally, large oak trees line the east side of the parcel but are located on the adjacent parcel (see Figure 4). Discussion: (a-d & f) No impact. Databases queried for the presence of biological resources included the California Department of Fish and Wildlife California Natural Diversity Database (CNDDB) and the U.S Fish and Wildlife Service’s (USFWS) Critical Habitat Mapper; these databases showed no biological resources including sensitive species, critical habitat, riparian habitat, sensitive natural communities, wildlife habitat corridors, water resources, or wetlands on the site, nor in the immediate vicinity. As such, the Project would have no impact on sensitive species, riparian habitat or wetlands. Additionally, because the site is fully developed and surrounded by development within the downtown area, there are no wildlife corridors going through the site and the Project would not impede the movement of wildlife. Lastly, there are no adopted Habitat Conservation Plans for the City of Ukiah, nor the larger Ukiah Valley that are applicable to the Project. As such, no impact to the aforementioned biological resources would occur. Discussion: (e) Less than significant impact. The existing Chinese pistache tree and the two Juniper shrubs located on the east side of the Dragon’s Lair building would be removed for demolition, as they are located against the building and partially growing into the foundation. In addition, the blackberry against the Tom’s Glass building would be removed. None of the species that are proposed for removal are listed as sensitive species at the state or federal level. Additionally, they are not identified as Heritage Trees, nor species needing preservation within the City’s Downtown Zoning Code (as identified in Tables 19 and 20 in Section 9229). None of the oak trees, which are listed as species that should be preserved in the Downtown Zoning Code, would be removed. As such, the Project would not conflict with any policy or plan intended to protect trees. No impact would occur. Mitigation Measures: None. 5. Cultural Resources CULTURAL RESOURCES. Would the project: Significant Impact Less Than Significant with Mitigation Less Than Significant Impact No Impact a) Cause a substantial adverse change in the significance of a historical resource as defined in §15064.5? b) Cause a substantial adverse change in the significance of an archaeological resource pursuant to §15064.5? c) Disturb any human remains, including those interred outsides of dedicated cemeteries? Page 200 of 387 24 Demolition Permit for Two Buildings Over 50 Years Old 101 and 105 South Main Street Draft Initial Study and Mitigated Negative Declaration City of Ukiah Significance Criteria: The proposed Project would significantly impact cultural resources if the significance of a historical or archaeological resource were substantially changed, or if human remains were disturbed. Historical resources under CEQA include historic-era architectural resources within the built environment such buildings, structures, and other objects. Archaeological and unique archeological resources can also be considered historical resources, according to CEQA Section 15064.5 and Section 21083.2(g). Section 15064.5 states the term “historical resources” includes the following: 1) A resource listed in, or determined to be eligible by the State Historical Resources Commission, for listing in the California Register of Historical Resources (Pub. Res. Code § 5024.1, Title 14 CCR, Section 4850 et seq.); 2) A resource included in a local register of historical resources, as defined in section 5020.1(k) of the Public Resources Code or identified as significant in an historical resource survey meeting the requirements section 5024.1(g) of the Public Resources Code, shall be presumed to be historically or culturally significant. Public agencies must treat any such resource as significant unless the preponderance of evidence demonstrates that it is not historically or culturally significant; 3) Any object, building, structure, site, area, place, record, or manuscript which a lead agency determines to be historically significant or significant in the architectural, engineering, scientific, economic, agricultural, educational, social, political, military, or cultural annals of California may be considered to be an historical resource, provided the lead agency’s determination is supported by substantial evidence in light of the whole record. Generally, a resource shall be considered by the lead agency to be “historically significant” if the resource meets the criteria for listing on the California Register of Historical Resources (Pub. Res. Code § 5024.1, Title 14 CCR, Section 4852) including the following: a. Is associated with events that have made a significant contribution to the broad patterns of California’s history and cultural heritage; b. Is associated with the lives of persons important in our past; c. Embodies the distinctive characteristics of a type, period, region, or method of construction, or represents the work of an important creative individual, or possesses high artistic values; or d. Has yielded, or may be likely to yield, information important in prehistory or history. Section 21083.2(g) identifies a unique archeological resource as an archaeological artifact, object, or site about which it can be clearly demonstrated that, without merely adding to the current body of knowledge, there is a high probability that it meets any of the following criteria: 1) Contains information needed to answer important scientific research questions and that there is a demonstrable public interest in that information. 2) Has a special and particular quality such as being the oldest of its type or the best available example of its type. 3) Is directly associated with a scientifically recognized important prehistoric or historic event or person. Assembly Bill 52 (effective on July 1, 2015) requires that before a negative declaration, mitigated negative declaration, or environmental impact report for a project is prepared, the lead agency for the project must seek consultation with tribes associated with the location of the project. To receive referrals, each tribe must have previously made a written request to the lead agency in order to be Page 201 of 387 25 Demolition Permit for Two Buildings Over 50 Years Old 101 and 105 South Main Street Draft Initial Study and Mitigated Negative Declaration City of Ukiah consulted on projects occurring in their geographic areas of interest. The Guidiville Rancheria of California is the only tribe that has made such request. As such, an AB 52 notice was sent to them on January 18, 2022. No responses were received. Environmental Setting: The Ukiah Township lies in a valley of the Russian River, bounded on the north by Calpella Township, on the east by Lake County, on the south by Sanel Township, and on the west by Anderson Township. The City of Ukiah was first settled in 1856 by Samuel Lowry. Initially incorporated into Sonoma County, an independent Mendocino County government was established in 1859 with Ukiah as the chosen county seat. Logging, cattle, and agricultural ventures contributed to the early settlement and growth of Ukiah throughout the remainder of the 19th century and early 20th century. 1889 is the date recorded for the first arrival of the train to Ukiah, quickly resulting in increased settlement of the City and its environs. The City of Ukiah is within the territory of the Northern Pomo. Permanent villages were often established in areas with access to staple foods, often times along eco-tones (transitions between varying environments), with access to good water, and generally flat land. The late 19th century saw slow growth in the community, with a slight decline after the turn of the century. The town grew steadily, though it remained a relatively remote outpost in the hinterlands of Northern California for several more decades. The area around the intersection of the current Perkins and Main streets was one of the earliest settlement locations for the town. Absalom Tidwell Perkins built a house for his family near the southwest corner of the current Perkins and Main streets, and built a feed stable on the Project site around 1857. By 1860, Ukiah had approximately 25 dwellings and a budding commercial district. Ukiah’s sparse population and relative remoteness delayed the arrival of the railroad. In 1886 the Cloverdale and Ukiah Railroad was formed to extend north to Ukiah; and the line was completed in 1889, 20 years after it began in Petaluma in 1869. The improved transportation network did open up Mendocino County to greater commercial and industrial growth, though the population did not expand rapidly. A 1906 earthquake damaged a number of Ukiah buildings, particularly in the commercial core, and considerable rebuilding and remodeling activity occurred after that time. Additionally, in June 1917, a fire began at a restaurant (currently occupied by a law firm at 116 South State Street) and strong winds pushed the flames east, encompassing the two blocks between State street to the railroad tracks, including the Project site. The area was rebuilt over the next decade. The City contains a number of Colonial Revival and Craftsman style derivations, popular during this era, that reflect the community’s prosperity. The City of Ukiah’s 1985 “Historic Resources Survey” (prepared by Historic Environmental Consultants) that was updated in 1999 by the “City of Ukiah Architectural Survey” (prepared by P.S. Preservation Services) identified 23 properties with local historic importance within the City limits. Per Ukiah City Code Section 3016(b), buildings over 50 years old proposed for demolition that do not meet the exemption criteria of being either an immediate safety hazard, or an accessory building that is not listed on the local historic inventory, shall be reviewed for their historic or architectural significance. Specifically, the City’s Demolition Review Committee shall review the proposal and make a recommendation to the Ukiah City Council. Per UCC Section 3016(e): In reviewing proposed permits, and formulating recommendations to the city council, the demolition review committee shall consider any information provided during the meeting, and shall use the following criteria. The structure: 1. Has a special or particular quality such as oldest, best example, largest, or last surviving example of its kind; or 2. Exemplifies or reflects special elements of the city’s cultural, social, economic, political, aesthetic, or architectural history; or 3. Is strongly identified with persons or events significant in local, state, or national history. Page 202 of 387 26 Demolition Permit for Two Buildings Over 50 Years Old 101 and 105 South Main Street Draft Initial Study and Mitigated Negative Declaration City of Ukiah Per UCC Section 3016(f), if the Demolition Review Committee finds that any of the criteria listed in subsection (e) apply to the building proposed for demolition, it shall recommend denial of the permit to the City Council. This section of the UCC also describes procedures for review by the City Council.2 As detailed in the below analysis, the buildings do not meet the exemption criteria noted within the City code; and as such, on December 28, 2021, the City’s Demolition Review Committee reviewed the Project and voted to recommend demolition of both buildings to the City Council. This Initial Study is intended to analyze the impacts associated with demolition of the buildings, in accordance with CEQA. The Demolition Permit, together with this Initial Study, will be reviewed by City Council for final consideration. Discussion: (a) Less than significant with mitigation incorporated. Because the Tom’s Glass building at 105 South Main Street is not located on a local, state or national register for historic places, demolition of it would not result in a significant impact to a historic resource. However, the existing Dragon’s Lair building originally dates from 1921, and was included in the City of Ukiah’s 1985 “Historic Resources Survey” (prepared by Historic Environmental Consultants) and updated in 1999 with the “City of Ukiah Architectural Survey” (prepared by P.S. Preservation Services). According to the 1985 survey, the building was assigned a “5” status code, which includes buildings that are identified as historic at the local level. Specifically, the 1985 survey notes that the building is representative of a type of commercial structure common to its era that is a “rather rare survivor of the type in Ukiah, and is located prominently. Its surfacing materials and form create a rather strong image of past lifestyles.” The 1999 survey was completed as an update to the 1985 survey, and reviewed each property’s eligibility for the National Register of Historic Places. The 1999 survey notes that the building is vernacular commercial style and originally constructed in 1921 as a hay barn and feed store. The survey notes that the pressed metal clad building is “an excellent example of its type and the only one left in Ukiah”, and was therefore assigned a “3S” status code, which is defined as appearing to be eligible for the National Register as an individual property through survey information. However, the 1999 survey does not provide additional information regarding the change in status from the 1985 survey. Although the 1999 survey identifies the building as eligible for the National Register, this does not accurately depict the building’s current status. In order for a building to be listed on the National Register of Historic Places, a building must first be listed on the State Register. In order to be listed on the State Register, the survey form completed by the local jurisdiction must be submitted to State of California’s Office of Historic Preservation (SHPO). SHPO then reviews the survey forms and determines if the building is eligible for listing on the State Register. Once listed on the State Register SHPO must submit a nomination form to the National Park Service for review and consideration. Upon extensive research, it was determined that Dragon’s Lair building is not listed on either the State or Federal Registers. This is further supported by SHPO’s most recent classification system and database of historic buildings, also known as the “Built Environment Resource Directory” (updated March, 2020), which identifies the building status code as “5S2”, meaning that the local government has identified it as individually eligible for local listing. As such, the building is not listed on the State Register, nor is it identified as eligible for the National Register of Historic Places. This is further supported by SHPO’s most recent classification system and database of historic buildings, also known as the “Built Environment Resource Directory” (updated March, 2020), which identifies the building status code as “5S2”, meaning that the local government has identified it as individually eligible for 2Ukiah City Code Section 3016 may be found online at: https://www.codepublishing.com/CA/Ukiah/#!/html/Ukiah03/Ukiah0301-0300.html Page 203 of 387 27 Demolition Permit for Two Buildings Over 50 Years Old 101 and 105 South Main Street Draft Initial Study and Mitigated Negative Declaration City of Ukiah local listing. As such, the building is not listed on the State Register, nor is it identified as eligible for the National Register of Historic Places. A Historic Resource Evaluation was prepared by APD Preservation, LLC in January, 2022 (Attachment A), to further research and evaluate the building’s historic significance. Under CEQA (Section 5024.1(c)), historic-era buildings older than 50 years are most commonly evaluated in reference to Criteria 1 (important events), Criteria 2 (important persons) or Criteria 3 (architectural value). To be considered eligible under these criteria the property must retain sufficient integrity to convey its important qualities. Integrity is judged in relation to seven aspects including: location, design, setting, materials, workmanship, feeling, and association. The Historic Resource Evaluation for the Dragon’s Lair building provides an analysis of this criteria to determine if the building is historically or culturally “important” under CEQA. The evaluation (2022) found that the original building was constructed in 1857 and replaced once in 1890 with a new hay barn, but was destroyed during the 1917 fire that began two blocks west of the building. A new building was constructed in 1921 but was significantly modified between 1938 and 1963 when it was converted to retail (uses included several feed stores, a cheese and wine store, and other office/retail businesses). Modifications made to the building during this time included replacing two open bays with windows, replacing the front doors, replacing and reconfiguring the awning, and installing an additional window. The false front that most defines the building was modified in 1938, but retains its basic early twentieth century appearance. Dragon’s Lair retail business has been at the location since 1995. In conclusion, the evaluation determined that “the building appears to be significant for its association with the post-fire redevelopment of Ukiah (criterion 1). Its period of significance is 1921 (its inferred construction date), and the building retains enough physical integrity to convey its early twentieth century commercial origins, which render it historic.” As such, the Dragon’s Lair building qualifies as a local historic resource under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) for its association with the 1917 fire. However, the analysis states that the “dilapidated utilitarian building” is not architecturally distinctive and does not possess high artistic values, and as such, does not appear to be significant for its architectural merit (criterion 3). Because the Dragon’s Lair building qualifies as a local historic resource under CEQA that would be demolished, the Project would result in a significant impact to that resource if not properly mitigated. Under CEQA, feasible Mitigation associated with alteration or demolition of historic buildings is most commonly directly related to efforts for preserving the architecture and/or the building’s appearance. However, because the Project proposes to demolish the building and does not propose new development at this time, mitigation measures related to architectural preservation are not appropriate. Instead, Mitigation Measure CUL-1 would require photo documentation of the building to catalogue its existence and Mitigation Measure CUL-2 requires an educational plaque be erected on-site to acknowledge the building’s historic significance related to the 1917 fire. Because the Project proposes to demolish the building that is not historically significant for its architecture, and does not propose new development at this time, these mitigation measures are considered adequate for reducing impacts to less than significant levels. As such, impacts to historic resources would be less than significant with implementation of mitigation. As described in the Summary of Findings in Section III of the ISMND, although it was discovered that the City’s local historic inventories (1985 and 1999) were not adopted by resolution or ordinance (as defined Public Resources Code Section 5020.1(k) to qualify as a local historic resource), the City recognizes the importance of the City’s inventory as it relates to local history, and has a precedent of processing Demolition Permits for buildings listed on the inventory featuring local historic significance. As such, the analysis and proposed mitigation measures contained herein are necessary and adequate for reducing potential impacts to historic resources. Page 204 of 387 28 Demolition Permit for Two Buildings Over 50 Years Old 101 and 105 South Main Street Draft Initial Study and Mitigated Negative Declaration City of Ukiah Discussion: (b) Less than significant impact. As noted in the City’s General Plan Historic and Archeological Resources Element (1995), the Project site is not identified as an area of high cultural sensitivity- areas that are most typically culturally sensitive include those adjacent to streams, springs, and mid-slope benches above watercourses because Native Americans and settlers favored easy access to potable water. Because the Project site is fully developed with pavement and buildings, and the site does not have a high potential for cultural resources to occur, less than significant impacts would occur as a result of the Project. Additionally, construction of the Project will be required to adhere to CEQA Guidelines Section 15064.5 (e-f) which specifically addresses actions to be taken in the event that human remains or archeological resources are accidentally discovered during ground disturbing activities. As noted above, in accordance with AB 52, a notification proving the opportunity for consultation was sent to the Guidiville Rancheria of California but no response requesting formal consultation was received. Based on the aforementioned, impacts to cultural and archeological resources would be less than significant. Mitigation Measures: CUL-1: Photo Documentation. Prior to issuance of the demolition permit, photo documentation of the Dragon’s Lair building shall be required in order to catalogue its existence. The photo documentation shall be reviewed and approved by the Community Development Director and submitted to the Mendocino County Historic Society. CUL-2: Educational Plaque. Prior to final completion of the demolition permit, an educational plaque shall be erected on-site to acknowledge the Dragon’s Lair building’s historic significance related to rebuild efforts after the 1917 fire. The plaque design and content, as well as the proposed placement, shall be submitted to the Community Development Director for review and approval. The plaque shall remain on-site if and when the site is developed in the future. If the plaque is proposed for relocation, the property owner shall receive written approval from the Community Development Director to do so. 6. Energy ENERGY. Would the project: Significant Impact Less Than Significant with Mitigation Less Than Significant Impact No Impact a) Result in potentially significant environmental impact due to wasteful, inefficient, or unnecessary consumption of energy resources, during project construction or operation? b) Conflict with or obstruct a state or local plan for renewable energy or energy efficiency? Significance Criteria: The Proposed Project would significantly impact energy if construction or operation of the Project would result in wasteful, inefficient or unnecessary consumption of energy resources or if the Project would conflict with a state or local plan for renewable energy or energy efficiency. Page 205 of 387 29 Demolition Permit for Two Buildings Over 50 Years Old 101 and 105 South Main Street Draft Initial Study and Mitigated Negative Declaration City of Ukiah Environmental Setting: Recent legislature has urged the State of California to conserve energy resources and provide renewable and zero-carbon energy resources in place of fossil fuels for generating electricity in the state. Specific to construction projects, the California Air Resources Board (CARB) and the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) contain standards to regulate energy consumption through Green Building Standards to ensure construction and operation does not result in wasteful, inefficient or unnecessary consumption of energy resources. In addition, current building codes require energy efficiency systems to be included in their plans for permit review. These building codes are regularly updated statewide through California Building Energy Efficiency Standards for Residential and Nonresidential Buildings (California Code of Regulations, Title 24, Part 6), commonly referred to as “Title 24” In general, Title 24 requires the design of building shells and building components to conserve energy, with standards to promote better windows, insulation, lighting, ventilation systems, and other features that reduce energy consumption in homes and businesses. The standards are updated periodically to allow consideration and possible incorporation of new energy efficiency technologies and methods. Discussion: (a-b) Less than significant impact. Fossil fuels for construction vehicles and other energy-consuming equipment would be used during demolition. However, fuel energy consumed during demolition would be temporary and would not represent a significant demand on energy resources. Project construction equipment would also be required to comply with the latest CARB and EPA engine emissions standards which require highly efficient combustion systems that maximize fuel efficiency and reduce unnecessary fuel consumption. Because no development is proposed, there would be no operational sources of energy consumed. All future development would be required to comply with the aforementioned regulations related to energy efficiency. With adherence to the aforementioned regulations, impacts from the Proposed Project related to energy consumption would be less than significant. Mitigation Measures: None Page 206 of 387 30 Demolition Permit for Two Buildings Over 50 Years Old 101 and 105 South Main Street Draft Initial Study and Mitigated Negative Declaration City of Ukiah 7. Geology and Soils GEOLOGY AND SOILS. Would the project: Significant Impact Less Than Significant with Mitigation Less Than Significant Impact No Impact a) Directly or indirectly cause potential substantial adverse effects, including the risk of loss, injury, or death involving: i) Rupture of a known earthquake fault, as delineated on the most recent Alquist-Priolo Earthquake Fault Zoning Map issued by the State Geologist for the area or based on other substantial evidence of a known fault? Refer to Division of Mines and Geology Special Publication 42? ii) Strong seismic ground shaking? iii) Seismic-related ground failure, including liquefaction? iv) Landslides? b) Result in substantial soil erosion or the loss of topsoil? c) Be located on a geologic unit or soil that is unstable, or that would become unstable as a result of the project, and potentially result in on- or off-site landslide, lateral spreading, subsidence, liquefaction or collapse? d) Be located on expansive soil, as defined in Table 18-1-B of the Uniform Building Code (1994), creating substantial direct or indirect risks to life or property? e) Have soils incapable of adequately supporting the use of septic tanks or alternative waste water disposal systems where sewers are not available for the disposal of waste water? f) Directly or indirectly destroy a unique paleontological resource or site or unique geologic feature? Significance Criteria: The Proposed Project would result in a significant impact to geological or soil resources if it exposed people or buildings to seismic risk; ruptured a known fault; produced strong seismic ground shaking, ground failure, liquefaction, landslides or substantial soil erosion; is located on expansive soil or unstable ground or create unstable ground; or destroyed a unique paleontological resource or geologic feature. Page 207 of 387 31 Demolition Permit for Two Buildings Over 50 Years Old 101 and 105 South Main Street Draft Initial Study and Mitigated Negative Declaration City of Ukiah Environmental Setting: The Ukiah Valley is part of an active seismic region that contains the Maacama Fault, which traverses the Valley in a generally northwest-southeast direction, approximately 0.8-mi east of the City limits at its closets point. The Ukiah Valley is located within the North Coast Range geologic province, comprised of a geologic feature unique to California, the Franciscan Formation. The Franciscan Formation is comprised of serpentine, sandstone, and other sedimentary rocks. Based on California Geological Survey maps and the Background Report for the County of Mendocino General Plan Update (prepared by P.M.C., 2003), the City of Ukiah is outside of known areas of historic faults, Holocene Fault, Late Quaternary Fault and the Alquist-Priolo Earthquake Fault Zone. Because most of the lands within the City are generally flat, slope instability hazards are not a concern, with the exception of lands within the Western Hills. Discussion: (a-d) No Impact. The Project site sits at approximately 627 feet in elevation and has a slight west to east slope. According to the U.S. Department of Agriculture, Natural Resources Conservation Service’s Web Soil Survey, the soils within the Project site are characterized as “210- Urban Land”, which is described as soils in highly populated areas containing largely built-out environments. In addition, according to the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), the site does not contain expansive or unstable soils and is not susceptible to landslides, nor strong seismic ground shaking. The Project includes demolition of existing buildings, but will not include trenching or significant ground disturbing activities that would result in erosion or loss of topsoil because the existing foundation and paved site would remain. Lastly, no new development is proposed that would require the use of septic tanks or other waste water treatment facilities. For the above reasons, the Project would have no impact to geology and soils. Mitigation Measures: None 8. Greenhouse Gas Emissions GREENHOUSE GAS EMISSIONS. Would the project: Significant Impact Less Than Significant with Mitigation Less Than Significant Impact No Impact a) Generate greenhouse gas emissions, either directly or indirectly, that may have a significant impact on the environment? b) Conflict with an applicable plan, policy or regulation adopted for the purpose of reducing the emissions of greenhouse gases? Significance Criteria: The Project would have a significant effect on greenhouse gas emissions if it would generate greenhouse gas emissions (GHG), either directly or indirectly, that may have a significant impact on the environment; or conflict with an applicable plan, policy, or regulation adopted for the purpose of reducing the emissions of GHGs. Environmental Setting: Climate change is caused by greenhouse gases (GHGs) emitted into the atmosphere around the world from a variety of sources, including the combustion of fuel for energy and transportation, cement manufacturing, and refrigerant emissions. GHGs are those gases that have the ability to trap heat in the atmosphere, a process that is analogous to the way a greenhouse Page 208 of 387 32 Demolition Permit for Two Buildings Over 50 Years Old 101 and 105 South Main Street Draft Initial Study and Mitigated Negative Declaration City of Ukiah traps heat. GHGs may be emitted a result of human activities, as well as through natural processes. Increasing GHG concentrations in the atmosphere are leading to global climate change. The state of California has adopted various administrative initiatives and legislation relating to climate change, much of which set aggressive goals for GHG emissions reductions statewide. Although lead agencies must evaluate climate change and GHG emissions of projects subject to CEQA, the CEQA Guidelines do not require or suggest specific methodologies for performing an assessment or specific thresholds of significance and do not specify GHG reduction mitigation measures. No state agency has developed binding regulations for analyzing GHG emissions, determining their significance, or mitigating significant effects in CEQA documents. Thus, lead agencies exercise their discretion in determining how to analyze GHGs. Because there are no adopted GHG thresholds applicable to the Project, and because the Project is considered “small scale”, meaning that it does not include new large buildings or components requiring significant construction that would result in increased GHGs, the below qualitative analysis is appropriate. Pursuant to AB 32, on December 14, 2017, the California Air Resources Board (CARB) approved the current Climate Change Scoping Plan, California’s, 2017 Climate Change Scoping Plan (2017 Scoping Plan Update). The 2017 Scoping Plan Update outlines the proposed framework of action for achieving the 2030 GHG target of 40 percent reduction in GHG emissions relative to 1990 levels. The Scoping Plan Update incorporates a broad array of regulations, policies, and state plans designed to reduce GHG emissions. These are largely related to operational emissions, which are not applicable to the Project. However, the Scoping Plan does include some regulations intended to reduce the amount of emissions related to construction equipment and vehicle trips applicable to the construction of the proposed Project. Most of these regulations are also incorporated into existing California Building Code regulations and other state laws applicable to operation of vehicles and equipment. Discussion: (a-b) Less than significant impact. As described in Section V.3, Air Quality, demolition activities requiring the use of heavy equipment, tools (mechanical ram, dump truck, excavator, pickup truck, backhoe, front end loader, bobcat & stinger for concrete demolition) and vehicle trips (construction workers, equipment transportation, and dump truck haul trips) could result in direct GHG emissions. Demolition would take approximately three weeks with a crew of six construction workers. Demolition activities including the use of diesel engine equipment would be subject MCAQMD regulations intended to address air quality impacts and GHG emissions. Additionally, the proposed Project would not conflict with the regulations identified in the Scoping Plan Update to reduce energy use and transportation emissions, most of which are also incorporated into California Building Codes and state law. As a result, the proposed Project would not conflict with applicable Climate Change Scoping Plan strategies and regulations to reduce GHG emissions. With the temporary nature of demolition activities and adherence to the aforementioned regulations, impacts related to GHGs would be would be less than significant. Mitigation Measures: None.

Hazards and Hazardous Materials HAZARDS AND HAZARDOUS MATERIALS. Would the project: Significant Impact Less Than Significant with Mitigation Less Than Significant Impact No Impact a) Create a significant hazard to the public or the environment through the routine transport, use, or disposal of hazardous materials? b) Create a significant hazard to the public or the environment through reasonably foreseeable upset and accident conditions involving the release of hazardous materials into the environment? c) Emit hazardous emissions or handle hazardous or acutely hazardous materials, substances, or waste within one-quarter mile of an existing or proposed school? d) Be located on a site which is included on a list of hazardous materials sites compiled pursuant to Government Code Section 65962.5 and, as a result, would it create a significant hazard to the public or the environment? e) For a project located within an airport land use plan or, where such a plan has not been adopted, within two miles of a public airport or public use airport, would the project result in a safety hazard or excessive noise for people residing or working in the project area? f) Impair implementation of or physically interfere with an adopted emergency response plan or emergency evacuation plan? g) Expose people or structures, either directly or indirectly, to a significant risk of loss, injury or death involving wildland fires? Significance Criteria: The Project would result in significant hazards or hazardous materials impacts if it exposed people to hazardous materials or placed them into hazardous situations; if it released hazardous materials or emissions into the environment or within 0.25 miles of a school; if it is located on a listed hazardous materials site; if it would create a hazard due to its proximity to a public airport or private airstrip; if it would create excessive noise for people in the area; if it would interfere with an emergency response or evacuation plan; or if it would expose people or structures to significant risks due to wildland fire. Environmental Setting: Mendocino County has adopted numerous plans related to hazard management and mitigation including, but not limited to: Community Wildfire Protection Plan, Hazardous Waste Management Plan, Operational Area Emergency Plan, etc. The most recent plan, the Mendocino County Multi-Jurisdictional Hazard Mitigation Plan (MJHMP) was adopted by the Page 210 of 387 34 Demolition Permit for Two Buildings Over 50 Years Old 101 and 105 South Main Street Draft Initial Study and Mitigated Negative Declaration City of Ukiah County in December, 2020. The MJHMP provides an explanation of prevalent hazards within the County, identifies risks to vulnerable assets, both people and property, and provides a mitigation strategy to achieve the greatest risk reduction based upon available resources. The four cities within Mendocino County, including the City of Ukiah, participated in preparation of the MJHMP to individually assess hazards, explore hazard vulnerability, develop mitigation strategies, and create their own plan for each respective city (referred to as a “jurisdictional annex” to the MJHMP). The City of Ukiah adopted its jurisdictional annex chapter of the MJHMP on November 18, 2020. Hazards identified for the City if Ukiah include earthquakes, wildfire, dam failure, flood and pandemic. Table 1-13 of the City’s jurisdictional annex lists each hazard and mitigation action for City of Ukiah. The Ukiah Municipal Airport is located within the City of Ukiah jurisdictional limits. The Ukiah Municipal Airport Land Use Compatibility Plan (UKIALUCP) was adopted by the Mendocino County Airport Land Use Commission on May 20, 2021 and adopted by the Ukiah City Council on June 16, 2021. The UKIALUCP identifies areas (known as “compatibility zones”) with potential hazards and impacts to persons using or working within the vicinity of the airport. Under Government Code Section 65962.5, both the State Water Resources Control Board (SWRCB) and the California Department of Toxic Substances Control (DTSC) are required to maintain databases of sites known to have hazardous substances present in the environment. The site does not include any known hazardous waste sites, as mapped by the SWRCB’s GeoTracker or DTSC’s EnviroStor databases. All lands within the City of Ukiah are within the jurisdiction of the Ukiah Valley Fire Authority. None of the lands within the City of Ukiah are located within a California Department of Forestry (CalFire) State Responsibility Area (SRA). However, some parcels within the western boundary of the City limits, are designated as “Very High” fire severity within the Local Responsibility Area (LRA). The Project site is not located within a High or Very High fire severity zone. Discussion: (a-b) Less than significant impact. Demolition activities using heavy equipment and tools would include the routine transport, use, storage, and disposal of small quantities of common hazardous materials, such as gasoline, diesel fuel, hydraulic fluids, and oils. However, the Project would adhere to state and federal regulations related to the transportation, use, and disposal of such materials. The use of these types and quantities of materials over the three-week construction period would not pose a significant risk to the public and/or environment. Impacts would be less than significant. (c) No impact. There are no schools within 0.25 mi of the Project site; the nearest school is South Valley High School, located at 429 South Dora Street, approximately 1,880 ft (0.36 mi) southwest of the Project site. As noted above, the use of all hazardous materials will be in accordance with applicable regulations intended to reduce potential impacts to the environment and people. As such, no impact would occur. (d) No impact. As previously noted, the Project site does not contain any listed hazardous sites. There is one listed cleanup site on the GeoTracker database adjacent to the Project, located at 203 South Main Street (case No. T064500019), but the site has been cleaned and the case has been closed as of 1995. As such, no impact would occur. (e) Less than significant impact. The Project parcel is located approximately 1.1 mi north of the Ukiah Municipal Airport within Airport Compatibility Zone 4 (Outer Approach/Departure Zone) of the UKIALUCP, which has the potential to result in some overheard noise during approach and departure. The UKIALUCP does not contain any policies related to demolition of existing buildings. According to Page 211 of 387 35 Demolition Permit for Two Buildings Over 50 Years Old 101 and 105 South Main Street Draft Initial Study and Mitigated Negative Declaration City of Ukiah Table 3A of the UKIALUCP, many uses such as a variety office, commercial and retail uses are listed as conditionally compatible, subject to density, height, and use development standards. However, no development is proposed at this time. All future development would have to comply with the UKIALUCP. The Project would not result in a safety hazard or excessive noise related to airport operations for people working in the Project area. Impacts would be less than significant. (f) Less than significant impact. There are no components of the Project that would impair or interfere with emergency response or evacuation. Access is available to the site and there are no components of the Project that would impair implementation of, or physically interfere with, the adopted MJHMP or other emergency response plan or evacuation plan. Impacts would be less than significant. (g) Less than significant impact. As previously noted, the Project site is not located within a High or Very High fire severity zone. The Project does not propose new development within a High or Very High severity zone that could expose people or buildings to a significant risk of loss, injury or death involving wildland fires. The use of gasoline-powered equipment will be used in accordance with all existing Building Code and Fire Code regulations intended to reduce fire risk (such as the use of spark arresters, for example). Impacts would be less than significant. Mitigation Measures: None.

Hydrology and Water Quality HYDROLOGY AND WATER QUALITY: Would the project: Significant Impact Less Than Significant with Mitigation Less Than Significant Impact No Impact a) Violate any water quality standards or waste discharge requirements or otherwise substantially degrade surface or ground water quality? b) Substantially decrease groundwater supplies or interfere substantially with groundwater recharge such that the project may impede sustainable groundwater management of the basin? c) Substantially alter the existing drainage pattern of the site or area, including through the alteration of the course of a stream or river or through the addition of impervious surfaces, in a manner which would: i) result in a substantial erosion or siltation on- or off-site; ii) substantially increase the rate or amount of surface runoff in a manner which would result in flooding on- or offsite; iii) create or contribute runoff water which would exceed the capacity of existing or planned stormwater drainage systems or provide substantial additional sources of polluted runoff; or d) In flood hazard, tsunami, or seiche zones, risk release of pollutants due to project inundation? e) Conflict with or obstruct implementation of a water quality control plan or sustainable groundwater management plan? Significance Criteria: The Project would significantly impact hydrology and water quality if it violated water quality standards or waste discharge requirements or substantially degraded surface or groundwater quality; substantially decreased groundwater supplies or impeded sustainable groundwater management; altered drainage patterns in a manner that would cause substantial on- or off-site erosion, polluted runoff or excessive runoff that caused flooding; impeded or redirected flood flows; risked a release of pollutants due to inundation if in a flood hazard, tsunami or seiche zone; or conflicted with a water quality plan or sustainable groundwater management plan. Environmental Setting: Average rainfall in Ukiah is slightly less than 35 inches. Most of the precipitation falls during the winter. Rainfall is often from brief, intense storms, which move in from the northwest. Virtually no rainfall occurs during the summer months. Surface water supplies for the Ukiah Valley include the Eel River, from which water is diverted into the Russian River watershed through the Potter Valley Project, Lake Mendocino, and the Russian River. Groundwater is drawn from the Page 213 of 387 37 Demolition Permit for Two Buildings Over 50 Years Old 101 and 105 South Main Street Draft Initial Study and Mitigated Negative Declaration City of Ukiah Ukiah Valley groundwater basin. The Ukiah Valley groundwater basin is the northernmost basin in the Russian River water system and underlies an area of approximately 60 square miles. Water enters the groundwater system via percolation of surface waters and through the soil. The creeks and streams in the Ukiah Valley provide drainage channels for groundwater recharge, as well as domestic and agricultural water supply. The City of Ukiah 2020 Urban Water Management Plan (UWMP) was adopted by City Council on June 2, 2021. The UWMP considers several growth scenarios including an additional 2,500 and 5,000 new hookup scenarios and determined that there is capacity through the 2045 planning horizon to serve these growth projections. Discussion: (a-e) No impact. No groundwater would be used for demolition. Water used for dust control would be from a water truck. The Project would not require water to be discharged and groundwater would not be impacted by the Project. Additionally, there are no water resources such as creeks or streams on the Project site, nor in the immediate vicinity, that would be impacted or altered as a result of the Project. Lastly, the Project is not located within a tsunami hazard zone, nor a flood zone, as identified by the Federal Emergency Management Agency. As such, no impact to hydrology and water quality would occur. Mitigation Measures: None. 11. Land Use and Planning LAND USE AND PLANNING. Would the project: Significant Impact Less Than Significant with Mitigation Less Than Significant Impact No Impact a) Physically divide an established community? b) Cause a significant environmental impact due to a conflict with any land use plan, policy, or regulation adopted for the purpose of avoiding or mitigating an environmental effect? Significance Criteria: The Project would significantly impact land use if it physically divided an established community or conflicted with a land use plan, policy or regulation intended to avoid or mitigate an environmental impact, such as the general plan or zoning code. Environmental Setting: The City of Ukiah includes approximately 4.72 square miles. It serves as the County Seat of Mendocino County, as well as the county’s commercial hub. Predominant land uses in the City include single-family residential, multi-family residential, and commercial uses ranging from local commercial to service commercial, as well manufacturing, industrial and public facilities. Development and land use patterns within the City of Ukiah are governed by the City’s General Plan, which was originally adopted in 1995, and currently in the process of being updated. Because the 2040 General Plan has not yet been adopted, the 1995 General Plan is the applicable plan relating to land use within the City. More specifically, zoning and land use are governed by the City’s Zoning Ordinance, as outlined in Division 9, Chapter 2 of the Ukiah City Code. The purpose of the Ukiah Zoning Code is to promote the growth of the City in an orderly manner and to promote and protect the public health, safety, peace, comfort and general welfare. Page 214 of 387 38 Demolition Permit for Two Buildings Over 50 Years Old 101 and 105 South Main Street Draft Initial Study and Mitigated Negative Declaration City of Ukiah Discussion: (a) No impact. Physical division of an existing community would typically be associated with construction of a new highway, railroad, park or other linear feature being constructed in a manner that would bifurcate an established neighborhood or community. Because the Project site does not contain existing residences and is immediately surrounded by existing roads and commercial and public uses (as opposed to an existing residential community), the Project would not result in the division of an established community. No impact would occur. (b) Less than significant. The Project site has a General Plan (1995) designation of Commercial (C) and is zoned Urban Center (UC) within Downtown Zoning Code. The Commercial General Plan designation applies to lands appropriate for a variety of commercial uses where commerce and business may occur; uses are further specified within the corresponding zoning districts. The Historic and Architectural Resources element (Chapter V.3) of the 1995 General Plan discusses cultural and historic resources within the City of Ukiah. Specifically, this element discusses both historical residential and commercial buildings. Regarding privately owned commercial buildings it states, “The General Plan needs to provide a balance between the preservation of historic and archeological sites for future study and analysis and the demands for current growth and development. Project design and other features of development flexibility can provide the needed protection while still preserving property rights. The purpose of this element is to establish the criteria for this balance.” Section 3.04.02 provides goals and policies related to preservation of commercial buildings identified as historic on Figure V.3-EE. The buildings proposed for demolition are not identified in this figure. The General Plan also states that “Situations may occur when an historic building, or a building with historic value, may need to be demolished for any number of reasons. With many historic resources, it may be appropriate to "mitigate" removal by photographing and recording as much information as is known about the site.” As noted in Section V.5, Cultural Resources, the Project proposes photo documentation and an educational plaque to be erected on-site to acknowledge its historic significance related to the 1917 fire, consistent with this General Plan statement. One of the main purposes of the Downtown Zoning Code (contained within Article 18 of the City’s Zoning Code) is to create an urban environment that implements and fulfills the objectives and strategies of the General Plan to facilitate the coexistence of a wide range of mixed uses in close proximity within a downtown urban environment. The UC zoning designation allows for higher density residential and mixed-use buildings that may accommodate retail, office, services, local and regional civic uses, and residential uses. The Downtown Zoning Code does not contain regulations pertaining to demolition, with the exception of requiring City Council approval to demolish buildings older than 50 years old, in accordance with Ukiah City Code Section 3016. As noted in Section V.5, Cultural Resources, per Ukiah City Code Section 3016(b), buildings over 50 years old proposed for demolition that do not meet the exemption criteria of being either an immediate safety hazard, or an accessory building that is not listed on the local historic inventory, shall be reviewed for their historic or architectural significance. Because the buildings do not meet the exemption criteria noted within the code, on December 28, 2021, the City’s Demolition Review Committee reviewed the Project and voted to recommend demolition of both buildings to the City Council. This Initial Study is intended to analyze the impacts associated with demolition of the buildings, in accordance with CEQA. The Demolition Permit, together with this Initial Study, will be reviewed by City Council for final consideration. As discussed in Section V.4, Biological Resources, the Downtown Zoning Code contains policies pertaining to the protection of trees. However, none of the species proposed for removal are species identified as needing protection. Lastly, no development is proposed at this time. Once the buildings are demolished, the site would be cleared and remain vacant until a proposal for development is submitted and approved through the discretionary process; all new development would be subject to the development requirements contained within the Downtown Zoning Code. Page 215 of 387 39 Demolition Permit for Two Buildings Over 50 Years Old 101 and 105 South Main Street Draft Initial Study and Mitigated Negative Declaration City of Ukiah For the reasons stated above, the Project would not conflict with existing zoning, the General Plan, or other land use policies intended for reducing environmental impacts. Impacts would be less than significant. Mitigation Measures: None 12. Mineral Resources MINERAL RESOURCES. Would the project: Significant Impact Less Than Significant with Mitigation Less Than Significant Impact No Impact a) Result in the loss of availability of a known mineral resource that would be of value to the region and the residents of the state? b) Result in the loss of availability of a locally important mineral resource recovery site delineated on a local general plan, specific plan or other land use plan? Significance Criteria: Impacts to mineral resources would be considered significant if the proposed Project were to result in the loss of a known mineral resource that has value to the region and state or is otherwise locally important as designated on a local land use plan. Environmental Setting: The most predominant of the minerals found in Mendocino County are aggregate resource minerals, primarily sand and gravel, found along many rivers and streams. The Ford Gravel Bars are located in Ukiah, along the Russian River. Discussion: (a-b) No impact. There are no identified mineral resources within the Project area. No impact would occur. Mitigation Measures: None 13. Noise NOISE. Would the project result in: Potentially Significant Impact Less Than Significant with Mitigation Less Than Significant Impact No Impact a) Generation of a substantial temporary or permanent increase in ambient noise levels in the vicinity of the project in excess of standards established in the local general plan or noise ordinance, or applicable standards of other agencies? Page 216 of 387 40 Demolition Permit for Two Buildings Over 50 Years Old 101 and 105 South Main Street Draft Initial Study and Mitigated Negative Declaration City of Ukiah b) Generation of excessive ground borne vibration or ground borne noise levels? c) For a project located within the vicinity of a private airstrip or an airport land use plan or, where such a plan has not been adopted, within two miles of a public airport or public use airport, would the project expose people residing or working in the project area to excessive noise levels Significance Criteria: The Project would have a significant impact if it temporarily or permanently exceeded local noise standards in the vicinity of the Project, generated excessive ground borne noise or vibration; or would expose people residing or working in the area to excessive noise levels from public airports or private airstrips. Environmental Setting: The Ukiah City Code does not contain thresholds for analyzing noise impacts from construction-related noise, but guidance documents from the Federal Highway Administration and the Federal Highway Administration provide information on maximum noise and vibration levels associated with construction equipment and thresholds of significance for analyzing such impacts. Although the Ukiah City Code does not contain thresholds of significance for analyzing construction- related noise, UCC §6054, Construction of Buildings and Projects, states that it shall be unlawful for any person within a residential zone, or within a radius of five hundred feet (500’) therefrom, to operate equipment or perform any outside construction or repair work on buildings, buildings or projects or to operate any pile driver, power shovel, pneumatic hammer, derrick, power hoist or any other construction type device (between the hours of 7:00 p.m. of one day and 7:00 a.m. of the next day) in such a manner that a reasonable person of normal sensitiveness residing in the area is caused discomfort or annoyance unless beforehand a permit therefor has been duly obtained from the Director of Public works. The UCC’s Noise Ordinance (Division 7, Chapter 1, Article 6) that establishes ambient base noise level standards that apply to specific zoning districts within the City of Ukiah. These are specific to operation (not construction). “Ambient noise” is the all-encompassing noise associated with a given environment, being usually a composite of sounds from many sources near and far. For the purpose of the Noise Ordinance, ambient noise level is the level obtained when the noise level is averaged over a period of fifteen (15) minutes without inclusion of noise from isolated identifiable sources, at the location and time of day near that at which a comparison is to be made. Land uses exceeding these standards for long periods of time are considered to be significant. Discussion: (a) Less than significant impact. Construction activities such as the proposed demolition could result in periodic increases in the ambient noise environment and generally occur when construction activities occur in areas immediately adjoining noise-sensitive land uses, during noise-sensitive times of the day (typically early morning or nighttime), or when construction activity occurs at the same precise location over an extended period of time (e.g., pile driving in one location for 8-10 hours in a day, or over a duration of several successive days). Certain land uses are particularly sensitive to noise, including schools, hospitals, rest homes, long-term medical and mental care facilities. Residential areas are also considered noise sensitive, particularly during the nighttime hours. Page 217 of 387 41 Demolition Permit for Two Buildings Over 50 Years Old 101 and 105 South Main Street Draft Initial Study and Mitigated Negative Declaration City of Ukiah The nearest “sensitive receptor” (includes schools, libraries, child care facilities, health care facilities, senior facilities, and residences) is the Mendocino County Library (Ukiah Branch), located at 105 North Main Street, approximately 68 ft (0.1 mi) north of the site. Additional sensitive receptors in the area include the following: residences including the Circle Trailer Park, located at 317 North Main Street, approximately 676 ft (0.13 mi) north of the site; a single-family residence located at 412 South Main Street, approximately 763 ft (0.14 mi) south of the site; and Adventist Health Ukiah Valley Hospital, located at 275 Hospital Drive, approximately 1,087 ft (0.21 mi) northeast of site. The nearest school is South Valley High School, located at 429 South Dora Street, approximately 1,880 ft (0.36 mi) southwest of the Project site.3 Equipment for demolition would include a mechanical ram, dump truck, pickup truck, excavator, backhoe, front end loader, bobcat & stinger for concrete demolition. According to the Federal Highway Administration’s (FHWA) Default Noise Emission Reference Levels and Usage Factors (2017), maximum noise levels (at a 50-foot distance) for equipment that would be used for the Project are listed below in Table 1. Table 1, Typical Construction Equipment Noise Levels Type of Equipment L max at 50 feet, dBA4 Backhoe 78 Mechanical Ram 90 Dump Truck 76 Excavator 81 Front End Loader 79 Pickup Truck 75 Bobcat 80 Stinger (jack hammer) 88 The main source of existing noise at the Project site is from vehicles driving by, as the Project is located at a fairly busy intersection (Perkins Street and Main Street within downtown Ukiah. For reference, normal conversation is approximately 60 dBA, vehicles passing by are approximately 70- 80 dBA, and a gasoline-powered lawn mower is 90 dBA. There are no quantitative standards for construction noise levels specified by either the Ukiah General Plan or the UCC. However, UCC Section 6054 restricts construction activities within a residential zone, or within a radius of 500 feet therefrom, to the hours of 7:00 a.m. and 7:00 p.m. Although the Project would not be located within a residential zone, it would adhere to these regulations intended to lessen noise impacts to sensitive receptors. 3 Instilling Goodness Elementary appears on Google Earth as being located near the Mendocino County Superior Court House, located at 100 North State Street. However, it was confirmed that the school is located in Talmage approximately 2.5 miles southeast, and there are no classes at this location. 4 Lmax is the maximum sound level measured during a single noise event (at 50 ft in this case). dBA is the measurement of noise in decibels on a weighted scale for judging loudness that corresponds to the hearing threshold specific to the human ear. Page 218 of 387 42 Demolition Permit for Two Buildings Over 50 Years Old 101 and 105 South Main Street Draft Initial Study and Mitigated Negative Declaration City of Ukiah The Federal Transit Administration’s Transit Noise and Vibration Impact Assessment Manual (2018) identifies a daytime noise levels of over 90 dBA for extended periods of time as a noise level where adverse community reaction could occur at residential land uses within 500 ft of the noise. As shown in Table 1, the range of noise associated with equipment used for the Project would be 75 to 90 decibels (dBA) at 50 feet away from the noise source. Maximum noise levels generated by the Project would reach up to 90 dBA at times with the use of a mechanical ram and stinger (jack hammer) for concrete demolition. However, the nearest residence is approximately 676 ft away from the Project, which is beyond the distance identified as resulting in an adverse impact to adjacent residential uses. While the library is approximately 68 ft away from the Project, existing noise levels in the Project area associated with passing vehicles is 70-80 dBA. The Project could result in an increase of up to 10 dBA with the use of the mechanical ram and stinger, but would likely be lower, as it is more than 50 ft away and library users would be located inside the building. Additionally, operation of each piece of equipment over the temporary three-week period would not be constant throughout the day, as equipment would be turned off when not in use. Lastly, Project construction will occur Monday through Friday, during daylight hours, between the hours of 7:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m., in accordance with the City’s Noise Ordinance. As such, noise impacts associated with the Project would be less than significant. (b) Less than significant impact. Project construction can generate varying degrees of ground borne vibration, depending on the construction procedure and the construction equipment used. Operation of construction equipment generates vibrations that spread through the ground and diminish in amplitude with distance from the source. The results from vibration can range from no perceptible effects at the lowest vibration levels, to low rumbling sounds and perceptible vibration at moderate levels, to slight damage at the highest levels. Similar to the discussion in the noise analysis in criteria (a) above, the City does not contain specific standards or thresholds related to groundborne vibration. However, the Federal Transit Administration’s Transit Noise and Vibration Impact Assessment Manual identifies 0.2 inches per second peak particle velocity (in/sec PPV) as the level at which potential damage could result to non-engineered timber and masonry buildings.5 Additionally, Caltrans identifies 0.24 in/sec PPV as the level at which vibration is distinctly perceivable to humans. Based on ground-borne vibration levels for standard types of construction equipment provided by the FTA, of the equipment proposed to be used for Project construction, the use of the stinger jack hammer would be expected to generate the highest vibration levels (typically 0.035 in/sec PPV at a distance of 25 feet). Due to the Project’s proximity to the nearest sensitive receptor (library, approximately 68 ft away) and the fact that the operation of equipment would produce vibration levels below the aforementioned thresholds, the Project would not result in significant groundborne vibration, and impacts would be less than significant. (c) Less than significant impact. The Project parcel is located approximately 1.1 miles north of the Ukiah Municipal Airport within Airport Compatibility Zone 4 (Outer Approach/Departure Zone) of the UKIALUCP, which has the potential to result in some overheard noise during approach and departure. The UKIALUCP does not contain any policies related to demolition of existing buildings. According to Table 3A of the UKIALUCP, many uses such as a variety office, commercial and retail uses are listed as conditionally compatible, subject to density, height, and use development standards. However, no development is proposed at this time. All future development would have to comply with the 5 Peak Particle Velocity is the peak signal value of an oscillating vibration velocity waveform. Usually expressed in inches/second in the United States. Page 219 of 387 43 Demolition Permit for Two Buildings Over 50 Years Old 101 and 105 South Main Street Draft Initial Study and Mitigated Negative Declaration City of Ukiah UKIALUCP. The Project would not result in a safety hazard or excessive noise related to airport operations for people working in the Project area. Impacts would be less than significant. Mitigation Measures: None 14. Population and Housing POPULATION AND HOUSING. Would the project: Significant Impact Less Than Significant with Mitigation Less Than Significant Impact No Impact a) Induce substantial unplanned population growth in an area, either directly (for example, by proposing new homes and businesses) or indirectly (for example, through extension of roads or other infrastructure)? b) Displace substantial numbers of existing people or housing, necessitating the construction of replacement housing elsewhere? Significance Criteria: The proposed Project would result in significant impacts to the local population or housing stock if it directly or indirectly induced substantial unplanned population growth or displaced a substantial number of people or housing such that the construction of replacement housing would be required. Environmental Setting: The City of Ukiah is approximately 4.72 square miles in size and located within Mendocino County. Overall, the City of Ukiah’s population has increased moderately over the past nearly 30 years, with a more accelerated increase in the last four years. Projections from the California State University Chico Center for Economic Development- Mendocino County Economic/Demographic Profile show this trend continuing. As described in the City’s Housing Element (2019) of the General Plan, the City’s annual growth rate between 1990 and 2018 averaged approximately 0.3%. Between 2000 and 2010, the City added 545 residents, or 3.7%, to its population. According to the California Department of Finance, the population in the County of Mendocino was 59,985 in 2018 and 16,226 in the City of Ukiah. The 2020 Census data identifies the City of Ukiah population as 16,607. Discussion: (a-b) No Impact. The Project would not involve the construction of new homes or businesses, or the extension of roads that would induce population growth, nor would the Project displace any people or housing, as no residences are located on-site. No impact. Mitigation Measures: None Page 220 of 387 44 Demolition Permit for Two Buildings Over 50 Years Old 101 and 105 South Main Street Draft Initial Study and Mitigated Negative Declaration City of Ukiah 15. Public Services PUBLIC SERVICES. Would the project: Significant Impact Less Than Significant with Mitigation Less Than Significant Impact No Impact a) Result in substantial adverse physical impacts associated with the provision of new or physically altered governmental facilities, need for new or physically altered governmental facilities, the construction of which could cause significant environmental impacts, in order to maintain acceptable service ratios, response times or other performance objectives for any of the public services: Fire protection? Police protection? Schools? Parks? Other public facilities? Significance Criteria: The Project would result in a significant impact to public services if it resulted in a requirement for increased or expanded public service facilities or staffing, including fire or police protection, schools and parks. Environmental Setting: Police protection services for the entire City limits is provided by the Ukiah Police Department, while the Mendocino County Sherriff’s Department provides police services for areas outside of the City limits. Fire protection services in the City are provided by the Ukiah Valley Fire Authority. Educational facilities in the City are provided by the Ukiah Unified School District (UUSD) and County Office of Education. Additionally, there are several private and charter schools serving residents within the City of Ukiah. As mentioned below in Section 16, Recreation, of this Initial Study, there are 13 City parks, a municipal golf course, and a skate park managed by the City of Ukiah, as well as other recreational facilities in the area. Discussion: (a) Less than significant impact. The City of Ukiah Police Department and Ukiah Valley Fire Authority are responsible for emergency response at the Project site, including during demolition activities. Because the Project does not propose development, the Project will not have a substantial effect on their ability to serve the area, nor would it result in the need for additional resources. Similarly, the Project would not result in an increase in population that would impact schools or parks in the area. As such, the Project would not result in result in substantial adverse physical impacts associated with the provision of new or physically altered governmental facilities, need for new or physically altered governmental facilities, the construction of which could cause significant environmental impacts, in order to maintain acceptable service ratios, response times or other performance objectives for any public services. Impacts would be less than significant. Mitigation Measures: None Page 221 of 387 45 Demolition Permit for Two Buildings Over 50 Years Old 101 and 105 South Main Street Draft Initial Study and Mitigated Negative Declaration City of Ukiah 6. Recreation RECREATION. Significant Impact Less Than Significant with Mitigation Less Than Significant Impact No Impact a) Would the project increase the use of existing neighborhood and regional parks or other recreational facilities such that substantial physical deterioration of the facility would occur or be accelerated? b) Does the project include recreational facilities or require the construction or expansion of recreational facilities which might have an adverse physical effect on the environment? Significance Criteria: Impacts to recreation would be significant if the Project resulted in increased use of existing parks or recreational facilities to the extent that substantial deterioration was accelerated or if the Project involved the development or expansion of recreational facilities that would have an adverse effect on the physical environment. Environmental Setting: The City of Ukiah manages several recreation facilities, including more than 13 City parks. In addition, there are approximately 30 miles of trails located throughout the Ukiah Valley, under County and federal jurisdiction. Discussion: (a-b) No impact. The Project does not include the alteration or addition of recreational facilities. The Project does also does not propose new development that could potentially increase the use of recreational facilities in the area. As such, no Impact would occur.

Transportation TRANSPORTATION. Would the project: Significant Impact Less Than Significant with Mitigation Less Than Significant Impact No Impact a) Conflict with a program, plan, ordinance or policy addressing the circulation system, including transit, roadway, bicycle and pedestrian facilities? b) Conflict or be inconsistent with CEQA Guidelines § 15064.3, subdivision (b), Criteria for Analyzing Traffic Impacts? c) Substantially increase hazards due to a geometric design feature (e.g., sharp curves or dangerous intersections) or incompatible uses (e.g., farm equipment)? d) Result in inadequate emergency access? Significance Criteria: Impacts to transportation and traffic would be significant if the Project conflicted with a local plan, ordinance or policy addressing transit, roadway, bicycle and pedestrian facilities; conflicted with CEQA Guidelines Sec. 15064.3(b), which contains criteria for analyzing transportation impacts; substantially increased hazards due to geometric design features; or resulted in inadequate emergency access. Traditionally, transportation impacts had been evaluated by using Level of Service (LOS) analysis to measure the level of congestion on local roadways. However, on September 27, 2013, Governor Jerry Brown signed Senate Bill (SB) 743 into law, initiating an update to the CEQA Guidelines to change how lead agencies evaluate transportation impacts under CEQA, with the goal to better measure the actual transportation-related environmental impacts of a given project. Starting July 1, 2020, lead agencies are required to analyze the transportation impacts of new projects using vehicle miles traveled (VMT), instead of LOS. VMT measures the amount of additional miles produced by the project. If the project increases car travel onto the roads excessively, the project may cause a significant transportation impact. In 2018, the Office of Planning and Research (OPR) published a Technical Advisory on Evaluating Transportation Impacts in CEQA (2018) which is intended to provide advice and recommendations for evaluating VMT, which agencies and other entities may use at their discretion. As discussed further below, the Technical Advisory offers that screening thresholds may be used to identify when land use projects, such as small-scale residential projects, should be expected to cause a less-than-significant impact without conducting a detailed traffic study. On behalf of the Mendocino Council of Governments (MCOG), Fehr & Peers, prepared a Senate Bill 743 Vehicle Miles Traveled Regional Baseline Study (Baseline Study; May, 2020) to provide an overview of SB 743, summarize VMT data available for Mendocino County, discuss alternatives for and recommend VMT measurement methods and thresholds for lead agencies in Mendocino County, and recommend transportation demand management (TDM) strategies for reducing VMT on projects in Mendocino County. The following local plans have historically addressed transportation within the City of Ukiah: 2017 Page 223 of 387 47 Demolition Permit for Two Buildings Over 50 Years Old 101 and 105 South Main Street Draft Initial Study and Mitigated Negative Declaration City of Ukiah Ukiah Bicycle and Pedestrian Master Plan, City of Ukiah Safe Routes to School Plan (2014), Mendocino County Rail Trail Plan (2012), Ukiah Downtown Streetscape Improvement Plan (2009), and the City of Ukiah General Plan (Circulation and Transportation Element amended in 2004). MCOG’s Regional Transportation Plan (2017) and Section 5, Circulation and Transportation, of the Ukiah Valley Area Plan (2011) addresses transportation within the larger Ukiah Valley. The Baseline Study incorporated applicable goals and policies from each of these documents into the methodology and analysis when formulating its screening tools. A lead agency has discretion to choose the most appropriate methodology to evaluate a project’s vehicle miles traveled. If existing models or methods are not available to estimate the vehicle miles traveled for the particular project being considered, a lead agency may analyze the project’s vehicle miles traveled qualitatively. Environmental Setting: The City of Ukiah generally lies west of U.S. 101 between the U.S. 101/North State Street interchange, and the U.S. 101 / South State Street interchange. Three major interchanges along U.S. 101, Talmage Road, Gobbi Street, and Perkins Street (from south to north), provide access to southern and central Ukiah. The City of Ukiah is developed in a typical grid pattern with streets generally oriented north to south and east to west. Bicycle lanes are located throughout the City and public transit is provided by the Mendocino Transit Authority (MTA). The Project site is currently accessed via both Perkins Street and Main Street, both City-maintained two-lane roads that are developed with sidewalks but no bike lanes in the Project area. The nearest MTA bus stop is located in front of the library, approximately 130 ft north of the Project site at the intersection of North Main and East Stanley Street. Discussion: (a-d) Less than significant impact. No change to the City’s circulation system, transit, bicycle, or pedestrian facilities would be required or is proposed to occur with implementation of the Project. Access, including emergency access, is currently provided through existing driveways and City streets. The Project does not propose any modifications to access or other transit-related facilities on-site or in the immediate vicinity. As such, impacts to this criterion (c and d) would be less than significant. Because the Project does not propose new development, this analysis focuses on temporary impacts to the circulation system that may occur during the construction (demolition) phase. The Project has been reviewed by Staff, as well as the Public Works Department to analyze the Project’s impacts to traffic and circulation. Staff relied upon the Office of Planning and Research’s (OPR) Technical Advisory on Evaluating Transportation Impacts in CEQA (Technical Advisory; 2018) and the Mendocino Council of Governments’ (MCOG) Senate Bill 743 Vehicle Miles Traveled Regional Baseline Study (Baseline Study; 2020) which are intended to provide recommendations and screening thresholds for evaluating traffic impacts by the way of Vehicle Miles Traveled (VMT). One useful tool within these documents for small scale commercial Projects, are the thresholds identified to determine when such projects should be expected to cause a less-than-significant impact without conducting a detailed traffic study. Specifically, as noted in OPR’s Technical Advisory, absent substantial evidence indicating that a project would generate a potentially significant level of VMT, or inconsistency with a general plan or other transportation related document, projects that generate or attract fewer than 110 trips per day generally may be assumed to cause a less-than- significant transportation impact. This is further supported in MCOG’s Baseline Study that identifies construction of up to 50,000 sf of commercial buildings in urban areas as less than significant. VMT analyses are most appropriate for analyzing operational impacts or large-scale construction projects that produce significant traffic trips and/or vehicle miles traveled. However, these screening thresholds have been conservatively used for analyzing impacts associated with the Project. Page 224 of 387 48 Demolition Permit for Two Buildings Over 50 Years Old 101 and 105 South Main Street Draft Initial Study and Mitigated Negative Declaration City of Ukiah Demolition would include a temporary increase in traffic associated with ingress and egress of vehicles and equipment to and from the Project site via South Main and Perkins Streets. As noted in the Project Description, demolition would take approximately three weeks with a crew of six construction workers. All work would be performed Monday through Friday, during daylight hours (between the hours of 7:00 a.m. and p.m., depending on the season). Construction equipment would be staged on-site and all activities will be performed within the site boundaries. It is anticipated that two to three dump truck trips a day would be necessary to transfer demolished materials for disposal and recycling. Construction equipment and trucks would utilize existing driveways and access routes on Main and Perkins Streets and travel to the quarry, transfer Station and recycling center via U.S. Highway 101. No road closures are required or anticipated for the Project. The Project is anticipated to produce up to five dump truck trips per day, in addition to six vehicle trips for construction workers, for a total of 11 trips per day. Because the Project’s daily trips would be less than the 110 trips screening threshold identified by OPR, the Project does not involve new construction, and does not conflict with the City’s General Plan or other local plans intended to address circulation, the Project can be presumed to not result in a significant impact to traffic. As such, a subsequent detailed traffic study is not required and impacts would be less than significant. Mitigation Measures: None 18. Tribal Cultural Resources TRIBAL CULTURAL RESOURCES. Would the project cause a substantial adverse change in the significance of a tribal cultural resource, defined in Public Resources Code section 21074 as either a site, feature, place, cultural landscape that is geographically defined in terms of the size and scope of the landscape, sacred place, or object with cultural value to a California Native American tribe, and that is: Significant Impact Less Than Significant with Mitigation Less Than Significant Impact No Impact a) Listed or eligible for listing in the California Register of Historical Resources, or in a local register of historical resources as defined in Public Resources Code section 5020.1(k), or b) A resource determined by the lead agency, in its discretion and supported by substantial evidence, to be significant pursuant to criteria set forth in subdivision (c) of Public Resources Code Section 5024.1. In applying the criteria set forth in subdivision (c) of Public Resource Code Section 5024.1, the lead agency shall consider the significance of the resource to a California Native American tribe. Significance Criteria: An impact to tribal cultural resources would be significant if the Project were to substantially reduce the significance of a tribal cultural resource, a listed or eligible historic resource, or a resource considered significant by a California Native American tribe. Tribal cultural resources include “sites, features, places, cultural landscapes, sacred places, and objects with cultural value to Page 225 of 387 49 Demolition Permit for Two Buildings Over 50 Years Old 101 and 105 South Main Street Draft Initial Study and Mitigated Negative Declaration City of Ukiah a California Native American Tribe” that are eligible for inclusion in the California Register of Historical Resources (California Register) or included in a local register of historical resources. Lead agencies are required to “begin consultation with a California Native American tribe that is traditionally and culturally affiliated with the geographic area of the Proposed Project.” The consultation process must be completed before a CEQA document can be certified. Environmental Setting: As discussed in Section V.5, Cultural Resources, areas that are most typically culturally sensitive include those adjacent to streams, springs, and mid-slope benches above watercourses because Native Americans and settlers favored easy access to potable water. Tribes known to be present within the Ukiah area include (but are not limited to) the following: • Coyote Valley Band of Pomo Indians • Guidiville Indian Rancheria of Pomo Indians • Hopland Band of Pomo Indians • Pinoleville Pomo Nation • Potter Valley Rancheria • Redwood Valley Little River Band of Pomo Indians • Scotts Valley Band of Pomo Indians • Yokayo Tribe, not federally recognized Discussion: (a) Less than significant with mitigation incorporated. As described in Section V.5, Cultural Resources, because the Dragon’s Lair building qualifies as a local historic resource under CEQA that would be demolished, the Project would result in a significant impact to that resource if not properly mitigated. Under CEQA, feasible Mitigation associated with alteration or demolition of historic buildings is most commonly directly related to efforts for preserving the architecture and/or the building’s appearance. However, because the Project proposes to demolish the buildings and does not propose new development at this time, mitigation measures related to architectural preservation are not appropriate. Mitigation Measure CUL-1 would require photo documentation of the building to catalogue its existence and Mitigation Measure CUL-2 requires an educational plaque to be erected on-site to acknowledge its historic significance related to the 1917 fire. Because the Project proposes to demolish the building that is not historically significant for its architecture, and does not propose new development at this time, these mitigation measures are considered adequate for reducing impacts to less than significant levels. As such, impacts to historic resources would be less than significant with implementation of mitigation. Discussion: (b) Less than significant. As described in Section V.5, Cultural Resources, of this Initial Study, the site is considered to have a “low potential” for cultural and archeological resources. In accordance with AB 52, a notification proving the opportunity for consultation was sent to the Guidiville Rancheria of California but no response requesting formal consultation was received. Regardless, construction of the Project will be required to adhere to CEQA Guidelines Section 15064.5 (e-f) which specifically addresses what to do in the event that human remains or archeological resources are accidentally discovered. Mitigation Measures: Implementation of CUL-1 and CUL-2 Page 226 of 387 50 Demolition Permit for Two Buildings Over 50 Years Old 101 and 105 South Main Street Draft Initial Study and Mitigated Negative Declaration City of Ukiah 19. Utilities and Service Systems UTILITIES AND SERVICE SYSTEMS. Would the project: Significant Impact Less Than Significant with Mitigation Less Than Significant Impact No Impact a) Require or result in the relocation or construction of new or expanded water, wastewater treatment or storm water drainage, electric power, natural gas, or telecommunications facilities, the construction or relocation of which could cause significant environmental effects? b) Have sufficient water supplies available to serve the project and reasonably foreseeable future development during normal, dry and multiple dry years? c) Result in a determination by the wastewater treatment provider, which serves or may serve the project that it has adequate capacity to serve the project’s projected demand in addition to the provider’s existing commitments? d) Generate solid waste in excess of state or local standards, or in excess of the capacity of local infrastructure, or otherwise impair the attainment of solid waste reduction goals? e) Comply with federal, state, and local management and reduction statutes and regulations related to solid waste? Significance Criteria: Impacts to utility and service systems would be significant if the Project resulted in the construction or expansion of utilities that could cause significant environmental effects; have insufficient water supplies available to the Project during normal to extremely dry years; resulted in inadequate capacity of the wastewater treatment plant; generated solid waste exceeding the capacity of local infrastructure or impairing the achievement of solid waste reduction goals; or failed to comply with any management and reduction statutes or regulations related to solid waste. Environmental Setting: The majority of City properties are served by City water, sewer, electricity and trash collection as summarized below. Electric. The City of Ukiah’s Electric Utility Department provides electric services to properties within the City limits, while Pacific Gas & Electric (PG&E) provides services to properties outside of the City. Water. There are five major providers of community water services in the Ukiah Valley. The City of Ukiah serves customers within the City, while Rogina Water Company and Millview, Calpella, and Willow County Water Districts serve the unincorporated areas. The City of Ukiah 2020 Urban Water Management Plan (UWMP) was adopted by City Council on June 2, 2021. The UWMP considers several growth scenarios including an additional 2,500 and 5,000 hookup scenarios and determined that there is capacity through the 2045 planning horizon to serve these growth projections. Page 227 of 387 51 Demolition Permit for Two Buildings Over 50 Years Old 101 and 105 South Main Street Draft Initial Study and Mitigated Negative Declaration City of Ukiah Sewer and Wastewater. The Ukiah Valley Sanitation District (UVSD) and the City of Ukiah provide public sewer services to customers within their boundaries under the purview of the State Water Quality Control Board. The City’s sewage treatment plant and Waste Water Treatment Plant (WWTP), operational since 1958, serves the City of Ukiah and the Ukiah Valley Sanitation District. Solid Waste. The Ukiah landfill, outside City limits on Vichy Springs Road, stopped receiving municipal solid waste in 2001 and the City is working on capping the landfill. Solid waste generated in the Ukiah Valley is exported for disposal to the Potrero Hills Landfill in Solano County. The Valley’s solid waste disposal system consists of a large volume transfer station, Ukiah Transfer Station, which receives waste for export. Discussion: (a-c) No Impact. The Project does not propose new development or alteration of the following: water, wastewater treatment or storm water drainage, electric power, natural gas, or telecommunications facilities. The Project would not use water, with the exception of a water truck to mitigate dust, as needed. As such, there would be no impact to these utilities and services systems. Discussion: (d & e) Less than significant impact. As noted in the Project Description, demolished concrete and rebar will be off hauled and recycled at a local rock quarry. Dump trucks would off-haul debris and deliver to the Ukiah Transfer Station & Recycling Center, where metal materials would be recycled and non-recyclable materials would be disposed of. All waste produced from Project activities would be disposed of at the Ukiah Transfer Station in accordance with all applicable local, state and federal regulations. Impacts related to solid waste would be less than significant. Mitigation Measures: None Page 228 of 387 52 Demolition Permit for Two Buildings Over 50 Years Old 101 and 105 South Main Street Draft Initial Study and Mitigated Negative Declaration City of Ukiah 20. Wildfire WILDFIRE. If located in or near state responsibility areas or lands classified as very high fire hazard severity zones, would the project: Significant Impact Less Than Significant with Mitigation Less Than Significant Impact No Impact a) Substantially impair an adopted emergency response plan or emergency evacuation plan? b) Due to slope, prevailing winds, and other factors, exacerbate wildfire risks, and thereby expose project occupants to pollutant concentrations from a wildfire or the uncontrolled spread of a wildfire? c) Require the installation or maintenance of associated infrastructure (such as roads, fuel breaks, emergency water sources, power lines or other utilities) that may exacerbate fire risk or that may result in temporary or ongoing impacts to the environment? d) Expose people or structures to significant risks, including downslope or downstream flooding or landslides, as a result of runoff, post-fire slope instability, or drainage changes? Significance Criteria: Impacts to wildfire would be significant if the Project were located in or near a State Responsibility Area (SRA) or lands classified as very high fire hazard severity zones and substantially impaired an emergency response plan; exposed Project occupants to wildfire pollutants or uncontrolled spread of wildfire due to site conditions such as slope and prevailing winds; require the installation or maintenance of infrastructure that could exacerbate fire risk; or expose people or structures to significant risks as a result of post-fire runoff, slope instability or drainage changes. Environmental Setting: All lands within the City of Ukiah are within the jurisdiction of the Ukiah Valley Fire Authority. None of the lands within the City of Ukiah are located within a California Department of Forestry (CalFire) State Responsibility Area (SRA). However, some parcels within the western boundary of the City limits are designated as “Very High” fire severity within the Local Responsibility Area (LRA). The Project site is not located in an area identified as having a High or Very High fire severity risk. As discussed in Section 9, Hazards and Hazardous Materials, the County’s EOP plan and MJHMP address emergency operations, natural disasters (including wildfire), as well as mitigation strategies to reduce potential risks. The City of Ukiah adopted its “jurisdictional annex” chapter of the MJHMP on November 18, 2020. Hazards identified for the City of Ukiah include earthquakes, wildfire, dam failure, flood and pandemic. Table 1-13 of the City’s jurisdictional annex lists each hazard and mitigation action for City of Ukiah. Discussion: (a-b) Less than significant impact. The Project site is accessed via existing driveways and roads, and there are no components of the Project that would conflict with, or impair the adopted MJHMP, EOP, or other adopted emergency response plan or emergency evaluation plan. As described in Section 9, Hazards and Hazardous Materials, the Project site is not located within a High or Very High fire severity zone. Because the Project site is developed with pavement, and the Project Page 229 of 387 53 Demolition Permit for Two Buildings Over 50 Years Old 101 and 105 South Main Street Draft Initial Study and Mitigated Negative Declaration City of Ukiah does not propose new development within a High or Very High severity zone, it would not expose people or structures to a significant risk of loss, injury or death involving wildland fires. The use of gasoline-powered equipment will be used in accordance with all existing Building Code and Fire Code regulations intended to reduce fire risk (such as the use of spark arresters, for example). Discussion: (c-d) No impact. The Project would not require the installation or maintenance of infrastructure such as roads, fuel breaks, emergency water sources, power lines or other utilities that would exacerbate fire risk. In addition, the Project would not include earthwork in a sloped, undeveloped area or other components that could result in downslope or downstream flooding or landslides as a result of runoff, post-fire slope instability, or drainage changes. No impact would occur. Mitigation Measures: None. 21. Mandatory Findings of Significance MANDATORY FINDINGS OF SIGNIFICANCE. Significant Impact Less Than Significant with Mitigation Less Than Significant Impact No Impact a) Does the project have the potential to degrade the quality of the environment, substantially reduce the habitat of a fish or wildlife species, cause a fish or wildlife population to drop below self-sustaining levels, threaten to eliminate a plant or animal community, substantially reduce the number or restrict the range of a rare or endangered plant or animal or eliminate important examples of the major periods of California history or prehistory? b) Does the project have impacts that are individually limited, but cumulatively considerable? ("Cumulatively considerable" means that the incremental effects of a project are considerable when viewed in connection with the effects of past projects, the effects of other current projects, and the effects of probable future projects)? c) Does the project have environmental effects which will cause substantial adverse effects on human beings, either directly or indirectly? Discussion: (a) Less than significant impact with mitigation incorporated. As described and analyzed throughout the Initial Study, impacts to Air Quality, Cultural and Tribal Cultural Resources could be significant. However, with the implementation of mitigation measures, all impacts would be reduced to less than significant. Specifically, temporary activities associated with demolition over the three-week construction period could result in direct significant impacts to Air Quality, but would be reduced to less than significant with the implementation of Mitigation Measures AQ-1 through AQ-3, requiring adherence to Mendocino County Air Quality Management District regulations. The Tom’s Glass building is not located on a local, state, or federal historic register. Therefore, no impact to historic resources would occur as a result of its demolition. However, because the Dragon’s Lair building qualifies as a local historic resource under CEQA that would be demolished, the Project would Page 230 of 387 54 Demolition Permit for Two Buildings Over 50 Years Old 101 and 105 South Main Street Draft Initial Study and Mitigated Negative Declaration City of Ukiah result in a significant impact to that resource if not properly mitigated. Mitigation Measure CUL-1 would require photo documentation of the building to catalogue its existence and Mitigation Measure CUL-2 requires an educational plaque to be erected on-site to acknowledge its historic significance related to the 1917 fire. Because the Project proposes to demolish the building that is not historically significant for its architecture, and does not propose new development at this time, these mitigation measures are considered adequate for reducing impacts to less than significant levels. As such, impacts to historic resources would be less than significant with implementation of mitigation. The Project would result in either no impact, or less than significant impact to all other resources. See Section V, Evaluation of Environmental Impacts, for more information. (b) Less than significant impact with mitigation incorporated. Cumulative impacts are generally considered in analyses of Air Quality, Biological Resources, Cultural Resources, Noise, and Traffic. As discussed throughout the Initial Study, the Proposed Project would have less than significant impacts on these resources or less than significant impacts with implementation of mitigation measures described herein. Short-term construction impacts associated with the Project would not significantly contribute to cumulative impacts in the area as there are no known past projects nor current projects within the vicinity of the site. Based on the findings and conclusions contained in the Initial Study, cumulative impacts related to the Proposed Project would be less than significant with mitigation incorporated. (c) Less than significant impact with mitigation incorporated. Based on the findings and conclusions contained in the Initial Study, the Proposed Project would not have environmental effects which will cause substantial adverse effects on human beings, either directly or indirectly. Impacts would be less than significant with mitigation incorporated.

Historic Resource Evaluation – UPDATED Jan 2022 5 Project Overview & Executive Summary Prospective buyers of the property at 101 South Main Street in Ukiah, California, are assessing the historic character of the building as part of the decision making process. They hired Alice P. Duffee, an architectural historian and preservation planner with APD Preservation LLC, to evaluate the historic character of the property and identify what features, if any, render the property historically significant. This report is the result of that evaluation. The parcel was the site of early commercial development in Ukiah, dating to 1857 when Absalom Tidwell Perkins built a livery on this corner of the country crossroads. That original building was replaced by a second livery/hay barn in 1890. Ukiah’s June 1917 fire destroyed that second building, and a third structure was built on the site y bat least by 1921. From 1921 to 1963 the building served as a feed store under four different businesses. With the modernization of Ukiah, the building was converted to retail space in 1963. Modifications made to that building at that time included infilling two open bays with windows, replacing the front doors, replacing and reconfiguring the awning, and installing an additional window. The false front that most defines the building was modified in 1938, but retains its basic early twentieth century appearance. The building has remained in retail use almost continuously since 1963. The building at 101 South Main Street dates from 1921, is included in Ukiah’s 1985 “Historic Resources Survey,” and is included in the State of California’s “Built Environmental Resource Database (BERD)” with a designation of “5S2,” meaning that a local government has recognized the resource as “eligible for local listing or designation.” Where the previous local survey form suggests that the building is eligible for listing on the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP), I defer to the State of California’s more recent determination that the building is significant at the LOCAL level and not the national level. Further evaluation and research of the property confirms that the information in the earlier reconnaissance level survey is correct and that the building appears to be significant for its association with the post-fire redevelopment of Ukiah (criterion 1). Its period of significance is 1921 (its inferred construction date), and the building retains enough physical integrity to convey its early twentieth century commercial origins, which render it historic. The building in its current dilapidated state, however, does not appear to be significant for its architectural merit. Based on extensive research of the development of this parcel, it is my professional opinion that the building qualifies as an historic resource under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). The character defining features of this historic building are as follows: • False front with pronounced box cornice on west elevation • One-story • Rectangular footprint with clipped corner at northwest corner • Entrance on the clipped northwest corner • Gable roof • Pressed tin siding on west and north elevations, corrugated metal siding on east and south • Irregular window placement Methodology On January 7, 2020, Alice P. Duffee undertook a field survey of the property to conduct a visual review and assessment of the building. Records searches were conducted at the following repositories, as well as a variety of online research websites: • Mendocino County Recorder’s office • Mendocino County Historical Society • City of Ukiah Building Department • Northwest Information Center (NWIC) Page 245 of 387 101 S. Main Street, Ukiah, Mendocino County. Historic Resource Evaluation – UPDATED Jan 2022 6 • San Francisco Public Library (SFPL) online research databases • California Digital Newspaper Collection • Online Archive of California and a variety of online research websites Evaluator qualifications Alice P. Duffee of APD Preservation LLC conducted the evaluation of the historic character of the building at 101 South Main Street in Ukiah, California. Ms. Duffee holds a Master of Science degree in Historic Preservation from the University of Pennsylvania and a Bachelor of Arts in Architectural History from the University of Virginia. She has worked in the field of Cultural Resources Management for thirty years, twenty-six of which have been in Northern California. For the past eight years she has focused her attention on projects in the North Bay. Ms. Duffee exceeds the standards for “Architectural Historian” as defined by the Code of Federal Regulations (36 CFR Part 61) and is listed in the California Historical Resources Information System (CHRIS) as a consultant qualified to work in the fields of Architectural History and History. Site Location The building at 101 South Main Street sits on the southeast corner of the intersection of Perkins Street and South Main Street on the east side of the City of Ukiah. Both Perkins and South Main streets have multiple lanes of two-way traffic; South Main Street has limited street parking on the west side. The area is medium density commercial structures from the nineteenth and twentieth centuries interspersed with sparse landscaping. Figure 1: Parcel Map 2-23 Page 246 of 387 101 S. Main Street, Ukiah, Mendocino County. Historic Resource Evaluation – UPDATED Jan 2022 7 Figure 2: Aerial View of Project Area, Google Maps 2020 Description The commercial building on the property is located at the southeast corner of the intersection of Perkins Street and South Main Street, fronting on both streets. It is one-story with a roughly rectangular footprint, with the northwest corner clipped to accommodate the primary entrance. The gable-roofed, wood frame structure is clad in corrugated metal and capped with corrugated metal roofing. The west and north elevations are faced in pressed tin to simulate rusticated, coursed, ashlar stone (see photo 37). The west elevation, fronting South Main street, is dominated by a false front that extends above the gable end of the roof and is capped with a pronounced box cornice. While the street-facing side of the false front is faced with pressed tin, the rear is faced with corrugated metal (see photos 38, 39 and 40). The element is purely decorative. The 1937 marketing video of Ukiah indicates that, originally, this feature wrapped around both street-facing facades of the building. A 1938 aerial, however, shows that the northern section, facing Perkins Street, had been removed (see figures 22 and 23 below). A corrugated metal awning extends the length of the west elevation and wraps around the northwest corner to shelter the primary entrance. A scalloped detail obscures the edge of the awning and adds a modicum of visual interest (see photo 32). The awning appears to be a modern replacement for a previous awning that appears in the 1937 video. This elevation has three windows. The northernmost window appears in the 1937 video and appears to be original to the building. It is a fixed wood sash, single-paned window topped by a 6-paned transom window. The frame is simple board surround with a slightly projecting sill (see photo 33). The middle and southern windows appear to be later additions to the building, most likely when the building was converted from a feed store to a retail shop in 1963. The middle window replaced an open bay, and consists of a 2-paned, fixed sash set in an aluminum frame. A three-part, glass, jalousie transom extends across the width of the window. The surrounding frame is similar to the original window, except that the newer window has no Page 247 of 387 101 S. Main Street, Ukiah, Mendocino County. Historic Resource Evaluation – UPDATED Jan 2022 8 projecting sill. The southern-most window matches the middle window and appears to have been installed in 1963 to provide more light to the interior spaces (see photo 35). The primary entrance is on the clipped northwest corner and consists of a pair of half-glass French doors with raised panels beneath arched glass panes (see photos 30 and 31). The door has a glass, jalousie transom and simple board frame. The doors are not original to the building, as evidenced by images from 1937 and 1948 (see figures 22 and 25 below). The north elevation, fronting Perkins Street, has three original windows at irregular intervals and an infilled bay on the eastern corner. The original windows all have multi-lite, wood transoms. The western-most window is identical to the flanking window on the west elevation. To its east lies a set of three multi-paned windows framed as a single unit. Another single-paned, wood frame window is roughly centered on the elevation (see photos 46 and 48). The bay at the eastern corner has been infilled with corrugated metal and a small, single pane, wood framed window (see photo 47). The building’s concrete foundation is visible on this elevation. The east elevation has no openings and is covered with a mural of ionic columns that was painted in July 1982 by Neil Phillip Anderson and Rita Lowitt, according to the signature at the bottom right of the artwork (see photos 44 and 45). The rear of the building (the south elevation) has a variety of mechanical equipment and a single pedestrian door at the eastern corner. A simple wood porch with four wood steps accesses the paneled rear door (see photos 41, 42 and 43). Historical Context of Ukiah The project area lies within the early “Rancho Yokaya,” which was an 8-square-league (35,541-acre) tract of land granted by Mexican Governor Pio Pico to Cayetano Juárez in 1845 in payment for Juarez’s decade of service to the Mexican government. The grant extended sixteen miles along the Russian River, from the southern end of Ukiah Valley to the northern end of Redwood Valley and ranged from one to two miles wide. It encompassed all of present day Ukiah. The area remained sparsely settled by either Mexican or European settlers through the first half of the nineteenth century, though the Pomo Indians maintained a strong presence in the area. Around 1856 Samuel Lowry built a log cabin near what is now the northeast corner of Perkins and Main Street, and became Ukiah Valley’s first white settler. Lowry was born in Connecticut around 1818 and had come to Placer County with the Gold Rush.1 2 In 1859 Mendocino County was officially carved out of Sonoma County, and Ukiah was selected as the county seat. The town was nestled between the coastal range of mountains and the Russian River, in the heart of the Ukiah Valley. The name Ukiah came from the Indian word “Yo’Kia,” meaning deep valley. Rathburn erected the first courthouse at a cost of $7,000.3 1 1850 U.S. Census and 1852 California Census. (www.ancestry.com) 2 Lyman L.

Historic Resource Evaluation – UPDATED Jan 2022 9 The town grew steadily, though it remained a relatively remote outpost in the hinterlands of Northern California for several more decades. Through the 1860s-1880s, access was restricted to overland routes, with San Francisco being a two-day journey via stagecoach.4 The area around the intersection of the current Perkins and Main streets was one of the earliest settlement locations for the town. Lowry had built his log cabin in this location, and then sold the 160-acre parcel to Absalom Tidwell Perkins in 1857.5 6 Perkins, his wife Elizabeth, and their five children relocated to Ukiah from Yuba County, north of Sacramento.7 Within a year, Perkins built a house for his family near the southwest corner of the current Perkins and Main streets, took over Lowry’s blacksmith shop on the northeast corner of the intersection, built a store to the west on Main Street and built a schoolhouse south of Perkins Street and west of State Street.8 On the southeast corner of Perkins and Main, on the site of the current Project Area, Perkins built a “feed stable for the accommodation of freighting teams.”9 By 1860, Ukiah had approximately 25 dwellings and a budding commercial district. 10 A.T. Perkins was possibly “the most important man of the region in those days.”11 In 1863 he launched a local newspaper, the Constitutional Democrat. Perkins was also a silent partner of “one of the leading mercantile establishments of early days in Ukiah.”12 His blacksmith/wagon shop was considered the largest on the north coast. In 1873 he shut down his blacksmith shop and turned his attention to his dry goods store.13 A.T. Perkins, however, continued to work as a blacksmith, and was mortally kicked by a horse he was shoeing. After a two-week period of paralysis, A.T. Perkins died in Ukiah on August 27, 1879.14 Meanwhile, the town continued on its trajectory of steady growth. Ukiah was officially incorporated in 1872 and a more substantial courthouse replaced the earlier structure. The new building was quite a bit grander, and cost the county $40,000.15 County Court convened in the new hall for the first time in March 1873. At this time the town boasted a variety of stores, four churches, seven saloons, and two livery stable. Ukiah’s streets were surveyed and laid out in 1876. 4 Palmer, page 481. 5 Aurelius O. Carpenter and Percy H. Millberry, History of Mendocino and Lake Counties, California, with Biographical Sketches (Los Angeles, CA: Historic Record Company, 1914), page 71. 6 Palmer, page 475. 7 Palmer states that the family moved from Marysville, CA, (page 476), though a genealogical search indicates that their daughter Emily Saline Perkins was born in Wheatland (Yuba County) in November 1856, not Marysville. Both towns, however, are in Yuba County north of Sacramento. 8 Palmer, page 477. 9 Palmer, page 480. 10 Palmer, page 480. 11 Frank L. Perkins, letter to his nephew, Morgan L.

On August 30, 1869, San Francisco & North Pacific Railroad (SF & NPRR) drove in its first railroad stake in Petaluma; it reached Santa Rosa in 1870 and Cloverdale in 1872. In 1886 the Cloverdale and Ukiah Railroad was formed to extend the SF & NPRR north to Ukiah; the line was completed in 1889, twenty years after it began in Petaluma. The improved transportation network did open up Mendocino County to greater commercial and industrial growth, though the population did not expand rapidly. 18 Figure 6: Ukiah Population, 1880 to 2010 16 www.ancestry.com 17 www.ancestry.com 18 "Census of Population and Housing", Census.gov. Page 250 of 387 101 S. Main Street, Ukiah, Mendocino County. Historic Resource Evaluation – UPDATED Jan 2022 11 On Monday, June 1917, the town of Ukiah changed forever. At 3:00 pm a fire was spotted at a Chinese restaurant on the west side of State Street, between Perkins and Church streets. The flames quickly consumed the modest frame structure and spread to the adjoining Fashion Livery on the north. Strong winds pushed the flames east, forging a two-block wide path of destruction from State street to the railroad tracks. The area was rebuilt over the next decade, showcasing the resilience of the community. Figure 7: Headline of Ukiah Dispatch, June 22, 1917 Figure 8: Post fire photograph of the west side of State Street, between Perkins and Church Streets (courtesy of Ed Bold) Like communities up and down the west coast, growth of Ukiah skyrocketed after World War II as veterans returned home and took advantage of numerous government programs designed to promote home ownership and community stability. Between 1940 and 1950, the population of Ukiah nearly doubled, jumping from 3,731 to 6,120. Today, Ukiah boasts a population over 16,000 people. It has a solid commercial district spiraling out from State and Perkins streets. Figure 9: 1958 USGS Quad, Ukiah, Ca Page 251 of 387 101 S. Main Street, Ukiah, Mendocino County. Historic Resource Evaluation – UPDATED Jan 2022 12 History of 101 South Main Street From its earliest days, the project area has been in the midst of Ukiah’s commercial heart. Beginning in 1856, Samuel Lowry built a blacksmith shop on what today is the northeast corner of Main and Perkins Streets, across from the project area. In 1857, Lowry sold a 160-acre parcel, including the project area, to the pioneering Perkins family who was relocating to the area from Arkansas via Yuba County. A. T. Perkins ran his own blacksmith shop out of the facility on the property, and built a supporting “feed stable for the accommodation of freighting teams” across the road on the site of the current project area.19 In 1878, Perkins sold the parcel to Robert McKindley, who continued to run the livery until 1885, when David Frost purchased the property. The 1885 and 1888 Sanborn Fire Insurance maps show two adjoining, 1-story, wood-frame buildings, one used for hay and one as a wagon shed. I.N. Stapp and W.J. Ellis purchased the property in 1887. Wallace Johnson Ellis was a Civil War Veteran who relocated to Ukiah around 1876, following his marriage to his second wife, Orlena A. Brown Ellis. In 1889, Ellis tore down A.T. Perkins’ original stable on the project area, and in 1890 he bought out his business partner.20 By 1891, the newspaper reported that Ellis was erecting a new, 26’ x 50’ building for Buckle & Keenan on the site. The building was intended to be two stories, but within a week the Dispatch Democrat reported that the building was reduced to one story.21 While the corner building (on the project area) was a blacksmith shop, Ellis operated his “Ellis Feed Barn” on the rest of the property (see Sanborn Fire Insurance Maps below). George Clark took over operation of the “Ellis Feed Barn” in 1903. W. J. Ellis died October 7, 1909, leaving the property to his wife, Orelena. Orlena Ellis continued to rent out the commercial buildings on the property. In June 1917 an epic fire cleared the entire block bounded by Perkins, Main, Church and the railroad, including the project area. In July 1921, following the fire, the Ukiah Republican Press reported that Mrs. W. J. Ellis planned to rebuild the structure, which would measure 30’ x 150’.22 It is not clear if Ellis actually did rebuild the property, though. In October 1920 Orlena Ellis sold the property to William Martin Cox, though the deed does not specify whether there was a structure on it. Cox was born in 1860 in Ukiah, and was a general merchant. Most notably, he operated a hardware store. 19 Palmer, page 481. 20 Dispatch Democrat, June 6, 1889, page 3 column 3.

Historic Resource Evaluation – UPDATED Jan 2022 13 By 1921 the building was standing and was the new home to Holz Feeds. The 1929 Sanborn Fire Insurance Map shows the building on the site, in its existing configuration, including the clipped northwest corner (see figure 16 below). That building still stands on the site at 101 South Main Street and is the project area. Stamped sheet metal had been available since the 1870s, when it was showcased by Kittredge Cornice & Ornament Company at the Philadelphia Centennial Exhibition. The popularity of this cladding material, as well as full metal storefronts, soared as a result of more economical fabrication methods and the expanded distribution channels presented by the transcontinental railroad in the 1880s. Manufacturers blanketed the country with hundreds of thousands of catalogs, promoting their metal storefronts as more durable and fire resistant than traditional wood clapboards, as well an economical means of ornamentation. 1905 George L.

Main Street, Ukiah, Mendocino County. Historic Resource Evaluation – UPDATED Jan 2022 14 Between 1870 and 1930 there were more than forty-five architectural metal manufacturers in ten states. The majority of these firms were located along rail lines near raw materials in states including Ohio, Pennsylvania, Indiana, and New York. By 1905, George L. Mesker & Co. was advertising that his products were in every state of the country. By the second decade of the century, however, the popularity of the metal storefronts was waning. Cox’s metal building on South Main Street was at the tail end of the trend. Cox died from injuries sustained in a car accident on July 6, 1921. His widow, Eugenia, inherited the property, which was eventually sold to W.T. Robuson after her death in 1937. Page 254 of 387 101 S. Main Street, Ukiah, Mendocino County.

Main Street, Ukiah, Mendocino County. Historic Resource Evaluation – UPDATED Jan 2022 16 The building remained in constant use as a feed store from 1921 until 1963, through four different businesses: Holz Feed Co., H & W Feed Co., M. Vonsen Co., and Mercer Feed Co. The building’s proximity to the railroad depot on the east side of the block made it an attractive commercial venture. A 1937 marketing film made to promote and showcase local businesses in Ukiah includes footage of the building as it appeared shortly after its construction (see figure 20 below). The building has been slightly modified since then. The fenestration on the north elevation retains its 1937 appearance, though the west side has changed with the open bay being replaced by two windows. The primary entrance has also been changed from its original 6-paneled doors with multi-paned transom to the current half-glass door with jalousie transom (see photo 31). The awning has been replaced and redesigned to wrap around the northwest corner to shelter the entrance. An aerial photograph from 1938 indicates that the false front across the north elevation was removed between 1937 and 1938 (see figure 21 below).

Main Street, Ukiah, Mendocino County. Historic Resource Evaluation – UPDATED Jan 2022 19 Figure 26: 1957 Aerial of Ukiah (Cartwright Aerial Surveys, CAS-1957) In 1963 the building was transformed into retail space and became the site of “Schuler’s Surplus Sales.” A building permit from July 17, 1962, states that air conditioning was installed in the structure, supporting the hypothesis that the building was repurposed at this time. It is probable that the bay on the west elevation was replaced with two windows at this time to better enclose the space for retail use. The use of jalousie transoms on these two windows also supports this date, given the popularity of jalousie windows in the 1950s and 1960s. The front door appears to have been replaced at this time with the current half-glass French doors with jalousie transom. These replacement doors provided significantly more light to the interior. This change of use was indicative of the changing face of Ukiah at mid-century. The modern town needed general retail space instead of feed stores, wagon sheds and blacksmith shops. The building has remained in consistent use as a commercial facility since 1963, cycling through at least seven tenants, as outlined in the “Table of Tenants” below. The current business, “Dragon’s Lair,” has been in the building since 1995.

Historic Resource Evaluation – UPDATED Jan 2022 21 Determination of Eligibility The California Environmental Quality Act (PRC §21084.1) and its associated guidelines for implementation (CCR Title 14, Chapter 3, sections 15000 et seq.) defines historic resources as any object, building, structure, site, area, place, record or manuscript that, in general, meets at least one of the following four criteria:23 1. listed in the California Register of Historical Resources (PRC §5024.1 Title 14 CCR, Section 4850 et seq); 2. determined eligible for listing the California Register by the State Historic Preservation office; 3. included in a local register of historical resources (as defined in PRC §5024.1(g); OR 4. determined by the lead agency, through the presence of substantial evidence, to be historically significant because of its association with significant events, association with significant persons, architectural distinction, or potential to yield information important in history or prehistory. The building at 101 South Main Street is identified in the 1985 “Ukiah Historic Resource Survey” and the 1999 “City of Ukiah Architectural Survey” as historically significant. It is included in the State of California’s “Built Environmental Resource Database (BERD)” with a designation of “5S2,” meaning that a local government has recognized the resource as “eligible for local listing or designation.” Where the previous local inventory suggests that the building is eligible for listing on the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP), I defer to the State of California’s assessment that the building is significant at the LOCAL level and not the national level. (See Appendix B for copies of local inventory forms.) CRITERIA According to the California Office of Historic Preservation (OHP), a building, structure or object is eligible for listing in the California Register if it meets one or more of the four following criteria:24 Criteria 101 South Main Street 1. Associated with events that have made a significant contribution to the broad patterns of local or regional history or the cultural heritage of California or the United States. This commercial building is directly associated with the post-fire, early twentieth century commercial development of the east side of Ukiah. 2. Associated with the lives of persons important to local, California or national history. While the property was initially developed by one of Ukiah’s founding fathers (A.T. Perkins), the current building was built after that period. It is not directly associated with any persons significant to local, state or national history. 23 https://govt.westlaw.com/calregs/Document/IFFC7DA00D48511DEBC02831C6D6C108E?viewType=Full&transitionType=Default &contextData=(sc.Default) 24 Pub.

Embodies the distinctive characteristics of a type, period, region or method of construction or represents the work of a master or possesses high artistic values. The utilitarian building is not architecturally distinctive and does not possess high artistic values. 4. Has yielded, or has the potential to yield, information important to the prehistory or history of the local area, California or the nation Even though no archeological surveys have been conducted on this site specifically, there remains a possibility that buried archaeological deposits could be present and that accidental discovery could occur. In keeping with the CEQA guidelines, if such archaeological remains are unearthed, work at the place of discovery should be halted immediately until a qualified archaeologist can evaluate the finds. Should archeological resources be discovered, avoidance and preservation in place would be the preferred forms of mitigation. Prehistoric archaeological indicators include: obsidian and chert flakes and chipped stone tools; grinding and mashing implements (e.g., slabs and handstones, and mortars and pestles); bedrock outcrops and boulders with mortar cups; and locally darkened midden soils. Midden soils may contain a combination of any of the previously listed items, with the possible addition of bone and shell remains and fire-affected stones. Historic period site indicates generally include: fragments of glass, ceramic, and metal objects; milled and split lumber; and structure and feature remains, such as building foundations and discrete trash deposits (e.g. wells, privy pits, dumps). INTEGRITY ANALYSIS Integrity is the ability of a property to convey its historic significance. It consists of seven aspects: location, design, setting, materials, workmanship, feeling and association.25 Integrity Element 101 South Main Street Conclusion Location (“place where the property was built”) The building retains its integrity of location as it has not been moved or relocated. INTACT Design (“combination of elements that Changes to the building include removing the false front across the north elevation, replacing the awning in a similar location, infilling a bay at INTACT 25 http://www.nps.gov/nr/publications/bulletins/nrb15/nrb15_8.htm Page 262 of 387 101 S. Main Street, Ukiah, Mendocino County. Historic Resource Evaluation – UPDATED Jan 2022 23 create the form, plan, space, structure, and style” (NPS) the northeast corner of the north elevation, infilling a bay on the west elevation and adding two windows to the west elevation. These changes, however, do not impede the structure’s ability to convey its 1921 origins as a commercial building. At the same time, the building retains its basic utilitarian design. Setting (“physical environment”) The nineteenth and early-twentieth century commercial setting has been gradually converted into a modern commercial intersection. Only two buildings from the early twentieth century (post 1917 fire) remain to tell the story of the commercial history of this block. COMPROMISED Materials The original materials remain predominantly intact on all four elevations, though they have been patched and replaced in-kind over the past century. INTACT Workmanship (“evidence of labor and skill”) The utilitarian building does not display notable workmanship. N/A Feeling (“expression of the aesthetic or historic sense of a particular period of time”) The site itself retains its basic light industrial/commercial feeling, though the surrounding area has been altered. Almost all of the other light industrial buildings in the area have been demolished and replaced with modern commercial buildings, including the mid-century post office across the street and the modern buildings directly east and south of the project area. The block no longer services agricultural functions of the surrounding area. INTACT Association (“direct link between an important historic event or person”) The property directly retains its early commercial associations. The building appears basically as it did when it was built around 1921, with minor changes to the fenestration, roof line and entrances. INTACT CHARACTER DEFINING FEATURES The National Park Service defines character and “character defining features” as: those visual aspects and physical features that comprise the appearance of every historic building. Character-defining elements include the overall shape of the building, its materials, craftsmanship, decorative details, interior spaces and features, as well as the various aspects of its site and environment.26 26 Lee H. Nelson, FAIA, Preservation Brief 17: Architectural Character (Washington, D.C. National Park Service, 1988), p. 1. Page 263 of 387 101 S. Main Street, Ukiah, Mendocino County. Historic Resource Evaluation – UPDATED Jan 2022 24 The following table addresses the standard elements of “character defining features” as applied to 101 South Main Street. Feature 101 South Main Street Shape 1-story. Rectangular footprint. Clipped at NW corner. Roof and roof features Gabled roof with false front on the west elevation fronting South Main Street. Openings Entrance at the clipped NW corner. Irregularly spaced window openings of varying sizes and shapes across the west and north elevations. No windows on the south or east sides. Note: The current front door is a replacement feature in the location of the original doors ,and the southern windows on the west elevation are not original to the building. Both of these modifications date to 1963. Projections Porch at SE corner. Metal awning with corrugated metal roof across the west elevation. Note: The current awning is a replacement awning in roughly the same location as the original feature. Trim & Secondary Features None. Materials (from a distance) Metal. Setting Medium Density Commercial. Materials (at close range) Pressed tin. Corrugated metal. Craft Details None. Conclusion The building at 101 South Main Street dates from 1921, is included in Ukiah’s 1985 “Historic Resources Survey,” and is included in the State of California’s “Built Environmental Resource Database (BERD)” with a designation of “5S2,” meaning that a local government has recognized the resource as “eligible for local listing or designation.” Where the previous local inventory suggests that the building is eligible for listing on the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP), I defer to the State of California’s more recent determination that the building is significant at the LOCAL level and not the national level. Further evaluation and research of the property confirms that the information in the earlier reconnaissance level survey is correct and that the building appears to be significant for its association with the post-fire redevelopment of Ukiah (criterion 1). Its period of significance is 1921 (its inferred construction date), and the building retains enough physical integrity to convey its early twentieth century commercial origins, which render it historic. The dipalidated utilitarian building does not appear to be significant for its architectural merit (criterion 3). Based on extensive research of the development of this parcel, it is my professional opinion that the building qualifies as an historic resource under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA).

It is clad in corrugated metal and capped with corrugated metal roofing. The west and north elevations are faced in pressed tin to simulate rusticated, coursed, ashlar stone. The west elevation, fronting South Main street, is dominated by a false front that extends above the gable end of the roof and is capped with a pronounced boxed cornice. The street-facing side of the false front is faced with pressed tin; the rear is faced with corrugated metal. A corrugated metal awning extends the length of the west elevation and wraps around the northwest corner to shelter the primary entrance. A scalloped detail obscures the edge of the awning and adds visual interest. This elevation has 3 windows. The northernmost window is a fixed sash, single-paned window topped by a 6-paned transom window. The frame is simple board surround with a slightly projecting sill. The middle and south windows have fixed sashes set in aluminum frames. Glass, jalousie transom top the windows. The frames have no projecting sills. The entrance is on the NW corner and consists of a pair of half-glass French doors with raised panels beneath arched glass panes. The door has a glass, jalousie transom and simple board frame.

The original building was replaced with a second livery/hay barn in 1890. Ukiah’s June 1917 fire destroyed the 2nd building, and a 3rd structure was built on the site by at least 1921. From 1921-1963 the building served as a feed store. The building was converted to retail space in 1963. Modifications made at that time included infilling 2 open bays with windows, replacing the front doors, replacing and reconfiguring the awning, and adding an additional window. The false front that most defines the building was modified in 1938, but retains its basic early 20th century feeling. The building has remained in retail use almost continuously since 1963.The building is significant for its association with the post-fire redevelopment of Ukiah. It stands as the only remaining building to tell the story of how this block functioned as a service hub for agricultural commerce in the region. The building retains enough physical integrity to convey its early 20th century commercial origins. . B11.

The City of Ukiah, as the Lead Agency, prepared an Initial Study and Mitigated Negative Declaration (ISMND) for the Project (SCH No. 2022030389) under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). 2. The Lead Agency (City) consulted with all applicable responsible agencies and trustee agencies. 3. The Draft ISMND was circulated for public review from March 14, 2022 through April 15, 2022. No public comments on the ISMND were received during the public review period. 4. The ISMND analyzed areas of potential impacts and based on the conclusions reached within it, the Project would not significantly impact any environmental resources for the following reasons: a. Temporary ground disturbing activities associated with demolition would have an impact on Air Quality and Cultural/Tribal Cultural Resources. However, mitigation measures identified within the Mitigation, Monitoring and Reporting Program (Section VIII of the ISMND) would adequately reduce all impacts to less than significant. b. The Project would result in a less than significant impact to Aesthetics, Biological Resources, Energy, Geology and Soils, Greenhouse Gases, Hazards Materials, Land Use, Mineral Resources, Noise and Public Services. c. The Project would have no impact on Agriculture and Forestry Resources, Hydrology and Water Quality, and Population and Housing. 5. Based on the findings and conclusions contained in the ISMND, the proposed Project would not have environmental effects which would cause substantial adverse effects on humans, either directly or indirectly; and there is no substantial evidence in light of the whole record before the City of Ukiah (including the ISMND and any comments received) that the Project would have a significant effect on the environment. 6. Based upon the analysis, findings, and conclusions contained in the ISMND, the Project will not result in impacts that are individually limited, but cumulative considerable. 7. The Notice of Availability for the public review period, and the Notice of Intent to adopt the ISMND and conduct a public hearing was provided in the following manner, in accordance with the Ukiah City Code and California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines Section 15073: Provided to property owners within 300 feet of the Project parcel, as well as agencies and departments with jurisdiction or interest over the project on March 14, 2022; provided to interested parties who submitted written comments on the Draft ISMND during the public review period on March 14, 2022; posted on the City’s CEQA webpage on March 15, 2022 and March 7, 2022; published in the Ukiah Daily Journal on March 16, 2022; posted on the Page 300 of 387 Findings to Adopt a Mitigated Negative Declaration and Allow Issuance of a Demolition Permit for Two Structures Over the Age of 50 Years Old 101 and 105 South Main Street File No. 21-6155 & 21-6623 2 Project site on March 16, 2022; and posted at the Civic Center (glass case) 72 hours prior to the public hearings. 8. The ISMND and record of proceedings of the decision on the Project are available for public review at the City of Ukiah Community Development Department, Ukiah Civic Center, 300 Seminary Avenue, Ukiah, CA. 9. On December 28, 2021, the City’s Demolition Review Committee (DRC) held a public meeting and reviewed the Demolition Permit, in accordance with Ukiah City Code Section 3016(e). The DRC meeting was properly noticed in accordance with 3016(d). The DRC determined that the two buildigns do not meet the criteria outlined in UCC 3016(e), and as such, recommended that City Council authorize issuance of the Demolition Permit to demolish the two structures. 10. On May 4, 2022, the City Council held a public hearing in accordance with UCC 3016(g) to receive public comment and consider the DRC’s reccomendation, as well as approval of the ISMND for the Project. 11. The City Council determined that the two buildings do not meet the criteria outlined in Section UCC 3016(e), and as such, authorized issuance of the Demolition Permit and adopted the ISMND and via Resolution Number 22-XXXX; this decision reflects the City Council’s independent judgment and analysis.

The Draft ISMND determined that, with the incorporation of mitigation measures, the Project would not have a significant effect on the environment and that a Mitigated Negative Declaration for the Project should be prepared; and 4. Based on the findings and conclusions contained in the ISMND, the proposed Project would not have environmental effects which would cause substantial adverse effects on humans, either directly or indirectly; and there is no substantial evidence in light of the whole record before the City of Ukiah (including the ISMND and any comments received) that the Project would have a significant effect on the environment; and 5. The ISMND reflects the City’s independent judgment and analysis of the potential environmental effects of the Project. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that: 1. The City Council hereby adopts the Mitigated Negative Declaration, which consists of the Initial Study and Draft Mitigated Negative Declaration, Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program, and the findings in support hereof, which have been completed in compliance with CEQA. 2. The Initial Study and Draft Mitigated Negative Declaration, which includes the Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program in Section 7, is set forth in Exhibit 1, and the findings in support hereof are set forth in Exhibit 2, attached hereto and by reference incorporated herein. Page 303 of 387 2 PASSED AND ADOPTED this day of , 2022, by the following roll call vote: AYES: NOES: ABSENT: ABSTAIN: Jim. O. Brown, Mayor ATTEST: Kristine Lawler, City Clerk Page 304 of 387 1 April 26, 2022 Councilmembers, My name is Alyssa Ballard and I’m a professional historian with nine years experience in Mendocino County historical institutions and a lifelong resident of Ukiah. I am writing as a member of the City of Ukiah’s Demolition Permit Review Committee (DPRC), and as a concerned citizen, so I will divide my letter into two portions so as to not intermix my roles. As a member of the DPRC: On December 28, 2021, the DRPC met to review a demolition permit for 101 and 105 S. Main Street in Ukiah. I sit on this committee with Tim Eriksen, Craig Schlatter, Matthew Keizer, and the final seat is vacant. For 105 S. Main Street, the votes were three out of three in attendance to demolish. For 101 S. Main Street, the votes were two for demolition and one vote against demolition. My reason for writing is that I would like to explain my vote against the demolition of 101. S. Main Street in Ukiah. The duty of the DPRC is to research the historical, cultural, and architectural significance of the subject structure; evaluate the feasibility of rehabilitating or relocating the structure if it is deemed historical; in the event that the structure is found to have historic or architectural significance, determine if the salvaging of historic materials is feasible. The committee then offers a recommendation to the City Council regarding whether any of the criteria listed in the Ukiah City Code Section 3016(E) apply to the subject structure, and whether or not the Demolition Permit should be issued, issued with conditions, or denied. Per Ukiah City Code Section 3016(e): In reviewing proposed permits, and formulating recommendations to the city council, the demolition review committee shall consider any information provided during the meeting, and shall use the following criteria. The structure: 1.Has a special or particular quality such as oldest, best example, largest, or last surviving example of its kind; or 2.Exemplifies or reflects special elements of the city’s cultural, social, economic, political, aesthetic, or architectural history; or 3.Is strongly identified with persons or events significant in local, state, or national history. Per UCC Section 3016(f), if the Demolition Review Committee finds that any of the criteria listed in subsection (e) apply to the building proposed for demolition, it shall recommend denial of the permit to the City Council. ATTACHMENT 6 Page 305 of 387 2 When discussing the historic importance of a building, in this case, it is the structure’s historic importance to Ukiah that is in question, and not the structure’s historic importance on the state or national level. I voted “no” because I believe #1 and #2 under UCC Section 3016(e) apply to 101. S. Main Street for the following reasons: 1.The State of California’s Historic Resource Evaluation (1999 Update) states “This pressed metal-clad building is an excellent example of its type and the only one left in Ukiah .” This is not a factor that can change with time. Fulfilling #1 of UCC Section 3016(e) 2.State of California’s Office of Historic Preservation (SHPO) identifies the building status code as “5S2”, meaning that the local government has identified it as individually eligible for local listing. 3.A Historic Resource Evaluation prepared by Alice P. Duffee*, a Historic Preservation Planner for APD Preservation LLC was ordered in January 2020 by a prospective buyer of 101 S. Main Street. The report stated: a.“it is my professional opinion that the building qualifies as an historic resource under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA)”1 b.“It stands as the only remaining building to tell the story of how this block functioned as a service hub for agricultural commerce in the region.” Fulfilling #1 and #2 of UCC Section 3016(e) c.“…the building does appear to be significant for its association with post -fire redevelopment in Ukiah.” Referring to Ukiah’s devastating fire of 1917. Fulfilling #2 of UCC Section 3016(e) *Duffee has an MS in Historic Preservation, has a BA in Architectural History, is a member of the California Historical Consultants, and has 25+ years of experience. I reviewed all the research in the Historic Resource Evaluation, the material produced by the state, and did my own independent research, and came to the conclusion that 101 S. Main Street is historically significant to Ukiah and agree with all the points made above. I feel this 1 Duffee issued an update in November 2021 in the form of a letter (and later a revised HRE that was not provided until the CEQA was released in March 2021), as the State of California updated its guidelines. Duffee stated that it was her professional opinion that the building still fulfilled criterion A (now 1) meaning it is significant to the history of Ukiah’s early commercial development but it no longer fulfilled criterion C (now 3) as listed on the State of California’s Historic Resource Evaluation (1999 Update). The criteria states, the building “embodies the distinctive characteristics of a type, period, region or method of construction or represents the work of a master or possesses high artistic values,” which is the standard of significance for architectural merit. This only means the state no longer views it as officially eligible for historic status on the state or national level. It does not change the assertion that it is the only commercial building of its type left in Ukiah and historically important locally. Vernacular commercial buildings are rarely considered a “work of a master” or as possessing high artistic values”. Page 306 of 387 3 should exclude 101 S. Main Street from demolition based on the criteria set by Ukiah City Code 3016(e) and that is why I voted “no”. Through the City of Ukiah’s current demolition process it is our duty to first determine whether the building is historic (does it fulfill #1, #2, #3, of UCC 3016 e). Only after that determination is made should current condition, use, or any other issues/topics pertaining to the building be discussed. They are not factors in the determination of the building ’s historic status in Ukiah. As a professional historian and a concerned member of the public: Historic buildings are an important part of what gives a city or town its character. They are the physical representations of a town’s cultural history. They help give people a sense of place and connection to the past. Historic buildings add character to an area and give the area more prominence compared to the homogenized landscapes that dominate larger cities and suburbs. A major reason we celebrate and love downtown Ukiah is because of its unique historic buildings. That uniqueness is also what attracts investment and tourism. Most of our loved historic buildings in Ukiah’s downtown would not qualify for official state or national historic registers and are listed in the State of California’s Office of Historic Preservation (SHPO) classification system (updated March 2020) as “5S2” (l ocal government has identified it as individually eligible for local listing) which is the same listing as 101 S. Main Street. Some examples of Ukiah buildings that are listed as “5S2” are the Marks Building (102 S. State Street), the White Building (111 N. State), the Rudee Building (117 N. State), the Eversole Building (304 N. State), the Dowling Building (301 N. State), the Gillespie Building (238 N. State) and countless more. If we do not protect buildings coded as “5S2”, Ukiah’s entire historic downtown, sans a couple of buildings, could be lost. It should also be noted that everything that has been listed for 101 S. Main as potential hurdles (cost-prohibitive to bring up to code, condition, etc.) can be said for almost all of our historic buildings downtown. Many of the issues are not unique to this building; rather they are quite common issues one will run into while owning a historic structure. In my opinion they do not directly point to demolition as the only possible solution. Additionally, 101 S. Main Street is one of three historic commercial structures left of the east side of Main Street. Finally, per proposed mitigation measures in the CEQA, if we deem a building worthy enough of a plaque to commemorate its existence, why not try to preserve the building while we still have it? I ask that you please consider the information I have laid out above when the matter comes before the City Council. Thank you for taking the time to read my statements. Alyssa Ballard M. A. United States History Demolition Permit Review Committee, City of Ukiah Page 307 of 387 4 Addendum: I have attached to this letter a portion of the original Historic Resource Evaluation (HRE) that was prepared for prospective buyer of 101 S. Main Street, Douglass Hilberman, AXIA Architects, Santa Rosa, in January 2020. This evaluation was prepared by Alice Duffee who made a site visit in January 2020 as part of her research. A revised version of the evaluation was released with the CEQA and Notice of Public Hearing in March 2022 (after the Demolition Review Committee had already met). This version states on the cover page “Revised January 2022 for Todd Schapmire”. I noticed that the revised Project Overview & Executive Summary (page 5 in both versions) left out some important conclusions made by Duffee in the original. These were statements regarding factors that have not changed since the original was published and I’m unsure why they were left out of the revised version. I do not know if you will receive the original HRE so I have attached a few pages with highlighted portions directing you to these statements and items I have referred to in my letter. The word “dilapidated” was also not used anywhere in the original HRE but is included in the revised version. I do not believe there have been any significant changes to the condition of the building in two years.

Duffee, Historic Preservation Planner APO Preservation LLC January 2020 Page 309 of 387 101 S. Main Street, Ukiah, Mendocino County. Historic Resource Evaluation Project Overview &Executive Summary Prospective buyers of the property at 101 South Main Street in Ukiah, California, are assessing the historic character of the building as part of the decision making process. They hired Alice P. Duffee, an architectural historian and preservation planner with APO Preservation LLC, to evaluate the historic character of the property and identify what features, if any, render the property historically significant. This report is the result of that evaluation. The parcel was the site of early commercial development in Ukiah, dating to 1857 when Absalom Tidwell Perkins built a livery on this corner of the country crossroads. That original building was replaced by a second livery/hay barn in 1890. Ukiah's June 1917 fire destroyed that second building, and a third structure was built on the site y bat least by 1921. From 1921 to 1963 the building served as a feed store under four different businesses. With the modernization of Ukiah, the building was converted to retail space in 1963. Modifications made to that building at that time included infilling two open bays with windows, replacing the front doors, replacing and reconfiguring the awning, and installing an additional window. The false front that most defines the building was modified in 1938, but retains its basic early twentieth century appearance. The building has remained in retail use almost continuously since 1963. The building at 101 South Main Street dates from 1921, is included in Ukiah's 1985 "Historic Resources Survey'' (updated in 1999) and is included in the State of California's inventory of historic resources with a status code of 3S, meaning that it appears to be eligible for the National Register of Historic Places. Intensive evaluation and research of the property confirms that the information in the earlier reconnaissance level surveys is correct and that the building does appear to be significant for its association with the post- fire redevelopment of Ukiah (criterion 1 ). It stands as the only remaining building to tell the story of how this block functioned as a service hub for agricultural commerce in the region. Its period of significance is 1921 (its inferred construction date), and it retains enough physical integrity to convey the early twentieth century commercial origins that render it historic. Based on extensive research of the development of this parcel, it is my professional opinion that the bulldl ng gyaHf les as an hi storic resouree under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). The character defining features of this historic building are as follows: • False front with pronounced box cornice on west elevation • One-story • Rectangular footprint with clipped corner at northwest corner • Entrance on the clipped northwest corner • Gable roof • Pressed tin siding on west and north elevations, corrugated metal siding on east and south • Irregular window placement Methodology On January 7, 2020, Alice P. Duffee undertook a field survey of the property to conduct a visual review and assessment of the building. Records searches were conducted at the following repositories, as well as a variety of online research websites: • • • • • • • Iii Mendocino County Recorder's office Mendocino County Historical Society City of Ukiah Building Department Northwest Information Center (NWIC) San Francisco Public Library (SFPL) online research databases California Digital Newspaper Collection Online Archive of California and a variety of online research websites 5 Page 310 of 387 101 S .

Briefly describe the present physical dw:ription of the site or structure and describe anv major alterations from iu otlgln1I condition: The small one story coml!!ercial building is rectangular in form, with an angular corner. The main body of the building has a gabled form roof, behind the tall parapeted facade wall of the shop front. A molded tin cornice projects from the top of the wall, and a canopy extends over the ground floor shop windows and angled entry. The north elevation contains a large window and two smaller grouped ones all with multi-paned upper portions. The frame building is sheathed with pressed metal panels, patterned to rese~ble courses of rusticat ed stone. Signs have been added to the facade and the corrugated metal sheathing rear of the store has been painted with stylized Greek columns. Alterations include some modifications to openings on sides and rear of building, minor additions to the south elevation, and some interior remodeling. A tromp l'oeil painting of large clas9ical columns was painted across the rear of the building around 1981-82. 8. Co nstruction date : Estimated-Factual _lglJ_ 9.

In 1878 Robt, McKinley purchased the SE corner of Perkins and Hain from A.T. Perkins, McKinley lived in a house on the site and shared the lot with a feed stables he owned. The McKinley family kept a part interest in the bueiness until 1885. In 1889 the old stablee were torn down and new blacksmith -wagon shop structure was built by the Ellis family who then owned the property, In 1917 the big downtown fire destroyed all the buildinge on the lot. The W,M, Cox Company bought the property from the Ellis' in Oct. 1920. The Cox family had owned generol merchantile and grocery etores in Ukiah for many years. A deed transfer from the Cox Co. to widow in March 1922 implies that the building was on site, In 1925 Eugenia Cox, widow of W.M~ leased the building to W.R. Hildreth and F,M, Wilson (see 216 w. Henry) for 72 moths at $100 a month with permission to let them place a large pair of scales on the premises, For 111any years this building was used to buy and sell produce, hay and clean grain. The structure is representative of a type of co111111ercial structure co11111on to its era. It is a rather rare survivor of the type in Ukiah, and is located prominently. Its surf acing lllaterials and form create a rather strong image of past lifestyles, 20.

I understand that you will be reviewing the request for permission to demolish the building at our location sometime soon; and that, per the hearing conducted by the planning department on Dec 28, the committee reviewing the application was split two to one in favor of granting that permission. With things not looking so good for us, I have been reviewing my options as to where to put my business if you all decide in favor of demolishing. As I’ve been looking around, I’ve noticed a lot of vacant spaces, many in ill repair, and it just struck me like never before… why tear something down that is occupied and working? For a landmark, it is extremely well known and with the addition of my business, would seem to embody the city motto of Far Out Nearby. It brings people in to Ukiah from near to very far away on a regular basis to enjoy that experience. But even if it wasn’t my business in that building, I believe it is still interesting enough to be a really unique part of what makes our city special. I know you are tasked with evaluating the building impartially and on certain criteria, but it appears that even that evaluation is not able to be done completely impartially. So, even though I can understand the position of my landlord – a local guy who I trust has the best interest of the place - downtown Ukiah, into which he has invested so much time and money – at heart, I still think it is not a slam dunk nor should it be. Can it be proven that the end result will not be just another abandoned building, empty lot or modern architectural misfit? Page 314 of 387 I wish that local government could facilitate the collaboration of interested parties in taking care of old buildings such as the one at 101 S Main. The Mendocino County Historical Society thinks of it as worth preserving. I’m not in a position to do it alone, but I would certainly be willing to be a part of a group who wanted to buy it and do what it takes to maintain it. Over the years, my responsibilities to my employees, my customers and things like paying sales taxes, utility bills and all the other operational expenses have always taken priority over building maintenance for me, especially since neither my current nor my past landlord were interested in giving me a lease. I recently had some remedial wiring done on the inside of 101 S Main St and I passed the fire marshal’s inspection, it wasn’t that hard. I can imagine that, with the will to do it, maintenance solutions can be found for the old building, it is definitely not too far gone in my opinion. My current landlord has offered me the option of one of his buildings at 121 N State St. It is still an unfinished shell inside and is also very old with what appears to be a condemned upstairs. It has an earthquake warning for unreinforced brick and the entryway next door to the south on State St appeared to be occupied by a homeless person when I went by yesterday. With minimal parking and not much exposure to the public, you can imagine that it is not my first choice. In fact, on the issues of earthquake safety and general personal safety, our current location feels a whole lot safer to me. Either way, I am a believer in what’s best for everyone, so I’m ready to go with the decision that you will be handing down. Thank you for your time and attention, Sincerely, Edith Lucas Page 315 of 387 Dear City Council Member, Edith Lucas here again with a P.S. Well now I really am in a quandary. I have shared my opinion and point of view with all of you. And I have heard from my landlord that it would be better for me in the long run if you approve his application to demolish because I would probably get to stay there longer since he doesn’t even have any plans or a time frame in place for that action and it would seem that it could be a long time before a prospective developer is ready to buy and develop. He has said that he wouldn’t even sell to someone who’s plans he didn’t like. And I’m sure the city has many guidelines that have to be followed when constructing anything so close to the heart of our precious downtown. I am many things but I do not consider myself to be a visionary (like my landlord) when it comes to creating a city. I want to trust that the best really will take place for everyone involved and I especially do not want to be in an adversarial relationship with my landlord! I don’t envy your position in having to make this decision. Thank you again for your time and attention.

As you know, I am the owner of the subject property and the applicant for the demolition permit, however I am also the top producing commercial real estate agent in Mendocino County. Given that I am the applicant, I feel it necessary to verify my credentials for making an assessment on value to you and the committee. Attached you will find real estate agent production for commercial and investment real estate closed transactions in Mendocino County since January 1, 2020 from BAREIS MLS that clearly show I am qualified to provide this assessment. The subject property consists of two buildings that are approximately 3,200 square feet and 2,800 square feet for a total of approximately 6,000 square feet. Attached is data on commercial sales in central Ukiah since January 1, 2019 which range in sales price per square foot from $37.50 to $213.89. Currently in the downtown area there are two properties on the market, 301 North Main Street has been on the market for 276 days for $161.29 per square foot and 214 East Perkins has been on the market for 637 days at $96.23. Not included in the attached information is the off market sales of 102 South State Street for approximately $140 per square foot on April 30, 2021 and 295 North State for approximately $125 per square foot on June 1, 2021. The attached data clearly shows that dilapidated buildings in Ukiah sell for $100/SF or less and that the high end of the market is about $200/SF. Since we are assuming bringing the building up to current codes and the subject property would be in excellent condition, we can round up and safely say that the absolute best case scenario for improved value of the subject property is $250/SF which is $1,500,000. ATTACHMENT 7 Page 318 of 387 2 | Page I have consulted with two very reputable builders, Cupples & Sons Construction and Western Builders, regarding the cost to update the building which would require bringing it to current codes. Both came up with the same opinion completely independent of one another that it would cost $400 - $500 per square foot to make such improvements. Attached are letters from both companies with their opinions. Therefore it would cost approximately $2,400,000 - $3,000,000 to repair the building and after those repairs the building would be worth $1,500,000 at the absolute best case scenario. If you take into account the $420,000 that I paid for the property and do not even count any appreciation that has occurred, I would lose somewhere between $1,320,000 and $1,920,000. Unfortunately, based on current real estate values and the cost to repair the building, a viable market to repair the building simply does not exist. Please feel free to call or email me anytime with questions.

In order to bring these buildings up to code and safety standards a complete remodel of the buildings would be necessary, including but not limited to, electrical, plumbing, roof structures, roof surfaces, sub-floors, floorings, fire suppression systems, and reconfiguring both the buildings and sites to be ADA compliant. In essence to update these buildings to current code, we would have to build a new building inside the existing shell. It could be done, however, the costs will be exorbitant and you will still end up with some functional obsolescence. To complete a formal bid, I would need to get compensated for my time which I estimate to be approximately $2,000 - $3,000 for this specific Page 325 of 387 project. However, I can tell you with absolute certainty you are looking at a minimum of $400 per square foot and probably more likely $500 per square foot. Based on 6,000 square feet, you are looking at a $2,400,000 to $3,000,000 project. Please feel free to contact with any questions or if you would like to discuss further. Sincerely, Casey Cupples Vice President Casey Cupples Page 326 of 387 WESTERN BUILDERS 1400 N. Dutton Ave., #19 Santa Rosa, CA 95401 (707) 542-3213 (707) 542-6285(Fax) CA 834013 December 3, 2021 Mr. Todd Schapmire W Real Estate toddschapmire@gmail.com RE: 101 S. Main St, Ukiah Dear Todd: We have completed an extensive review of the property and two buildings located at 101 S. Main Street in Ukiah CA. The existing structures on the site are in poor condition and fail to meet current building codes and standards. Upgrading the existing structures to meet current code and market rate standards would require extensive repairs and enhancements. Costs for such upgrades can range in the $400-$500 per square foot to address the buildings and site combined. These values would not include soft costs such as architecture, engineering and permit fees, nor would they include any off-site improvements imposed by the City of Ukiah. This assessment is based upon visits to the site and historical accountings of similar redevelopment projects. Please let us know if you require further analysis at this time. Sincerely, Robert Cantu Robert Cantu - President Page 327 of 387 Page 1 of 2 Agenda Item No: 12.a. MEETING DATE/TIME: 5/4/2022 ITEM NO: 2022-1612 AGENDA SUMMARY REPORT SUBJECT: Consideration of Authorization of City Manager to Execute a Grant Agreement with the Federal Aviation Administration, and Award of Bid for Spec. 21-06 Runway 15-33 Pavement Rehabilitation Phase 2, Contingent on Grant Offer to Complete the Runway 15-33 Width Reduction from 150 Feet to 75 Feet; and Install New Lighting (Construction); and Approval of Corresponding Budget Amendment. DEPARTMENT: Airport PREPARED BY: Greg Owen, Airport Manager, Mary Horger, Financial Services Manager PRESENTER: Greg Owen, Airport Manager ATTACHMENTS: 1. Bid Results - Spec 21-06 - Runway 15.33 Pavement Rehabilitation Phase 2 (2) 2. Royal Electric's Bid Summary: Staff is requesting that the Council authorize the City Manager to execute a grant agreement with the Federal Aviation Administration and award a bid for Specification No. 21-06 - Runway 15-33 Pavement Rehabilitation Phase 2, contingent on Grant Offer to complete the Runway 15-33 width reduction from 150 feet to 75 feet; and install new LED MIRLS (Medium Intensity Runway Lighting System), Runway Threshold Lights (Remove and Install New), a New Runway 15 LED REIL (Runway End Identifier Lights), New Runway 33 LED REIL Installation, and a New LED PAPI (Precision Approach Path Indicator); and approve a corresponding budget amendment. Background: At the December 15, 2021, Council meeting, Council approved Plans and Specifications to complete the Runway15-33 width reduction from 150 feet to 75 feet; and install new LED MIRLS (Medium Intensity Runway Lighting System), Runway Threshold Lights (Remove and Install New), a New Runway 15 LED REIL (Runway End Identifier Lights), New Runway 33 LED REIL Installation, and a New LED PAPI (Precision Approach Path Indicator). Discussion: On March 10, 2022, bids were released for Specification 21-06 Runway 15-33 Pavement Rehabilitation Phase 2, which consisted of sending Bid Notices to Builder’s Exchanges and licensed Class A Contractors on the City’s Qualified Bidder’s list, sending an advertisement for publishing in the Ukiah Daily Journal, and posting the bid documents on the City’s website. Bids were publicly opened on April 14, 2022, receiving one (1) bid. Please refer to Attachment 1 for a copy of the bid results. The lowest responsive and responsible bidder is Royal Electric, with a bid amount of $2,222,222.00. Please refer to Attachment 2 for a copy of Royal Electric Bid. Staff is requesting the Council authorize the City Manager to execute a grant agreement with the Federal Aviation Administration and award of bid for Spec. 21-06 Runway 15-33 Pavement Rehabilitation Phase 2, Contingent on Grant Offer Runway 15-33 width reduction from 150 feet to 75 feet; and install new LED MIRLS (Medium Intensity Runway Lighting System), Runway Threshold Lights (Remove and Install New), a New Runway 15 LED REIL (Runway End Identifier Lights), New Runway 33 LED REIL Installation, and a New LED PAPI (Precision Approach Path Indicator). The Contingent FAA funding is 90% of the project cost, total project cost $2,509,484, Royal Electric $2,222,222, Project Administration and Inspection expense $287,262, Caltrans grant match of 5%, $112,927. Page 328 of 387 Page 2 of 2 The balance of the funds, or $138,022, will be funded from the Airport Fund. Staff is requesting a corresponding budget amendment for both the project costs, as well as the grant funding, and reflects a 10% contingency in the event of change orders. The timing of this project is a concern that Staff has grappled with since the Airport is open every day year- round. However, due to construction requirements and FAA funding for this project, the runway may be closed during fire season, causing Cal Fire to relocate for several weeks. Cal Fire air tankers will be relocated to the next closest bases, Santa Rosa and Chico, which are between 15-25 minutes away by air. Cal Fire supports this project, and Staff has been working with Cal Fire on the projected runway closures. Helicopter access will not be impacted by the project, even during construction. Staff will continue to work with the contractor to limit the impact on Cal Fire and other airport users. Recommended Action: Authorize City Manager to execute Grant Agreement with the Federal Aviation Administration and award of bid for Spec. 21-06 Runway 15-33 Pavement Rehabilitation Phase 2, contingent on Grant Offer to complete the Runway 15-33 width reduction from 150 feet to 75 feet; and install new lighting (Construction); and approve corresponding budget amendment.

DEPARTMENT: City Clerk PREPARED BY: Kristine Lawler, City Clerk PRESENTER: Mayor Brown and Various Councilmembers ATTACHMENTS: 1. 2022 City Council Special Assignments Summary: City Council members will provide reports and updates on their committee and ad hoc assignments. If necessary, the Council may consider modifications. Background: City Council members are assigned to a number of committees and ad hoc activities. These assignments are included as Attachment 1. Discussion: Previously, the City Council discussed having more time allocated to reporting on committee and ad hoc activities. Often, the Council Reports section of the regular agenda is rushed due to impending business (i.e., public hearings), and not enough time is afforded for reports beyond community activities. In an effort to foster regular updates on committee and ad hoc assignments, this item is being placed on the agenda to provide the City Council members an expanded opportunity to report on assignments and modify assignments as necessary. Recommended Action: Receive report(s). The Council will consider modifications to committee and ad hoc assignments along with the creation/elimination ad hoc(s).
