AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
SANTA ANA AMENDING SECTION 10-153 OF THE SANTA
ANA MUNICIPAL CODE RELATING TO LOUD AND
RAUCOUS NOISES TO CLARIFY PERSONS SUBJECT TO
ENFORCEMENT AND ESTABLISH PROCEDURES FOR
ISSUANCE OF FINES
THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SANTA ANA DOES ORDAIN AS
FOLLOWS:
Section 1. The City Council of the City of Santa Ana hereby finds, determines and
declares as follows:
A. On February 1, 1993, City Council approved Ordinance No. NS -2184 adding
Section 10-153 to Chapter 10 of the Santa Ana Municipal Code to regulate
electronically amplified loud and raucous noise within the City of Santa Ana.
B. Currently, when the Police Department receives a report of electronically
amplified loud and raucous noise, police officers respond to the location to
enforce the provisions of Section 10-153. As presently written, however,
enforcement has been difficult because Section 10-153 does not expressly
define those persons who may be held responsible for the amplified noise.
C. Noise disturbance complaints tend to be one of the highest calls for service to
the Police Department. The proposed Santa Ana Municipal Code revisions will
give the Police Department the ability to respond effectively to those complaints
and, thereby, address community needs and concerns, by identifying those
persons who may be cited for violating Section 10-153. The proposed
ordinance also sets forth the schedule of fines for each violation of Section 10-
153. enforcement against the property owner, thus eliminating the need to
identify the individual(s) on scene responsible for the disturbance.
Section 2. Section 10-153 of the Santa Ana Municipal Code is hereby amended such
that it reads as follows:
ARTICLE I. IN GENERAL
Sec. 10-153. - Loud and raucous noise from sound -making or amplifying

conflict with any penalty or provision under State law, or prohibit any
conduct authorized by the State or Federal constitutions.

competent jurisdiction, such decision shall not affect the validity of the remaining portions of
this ordinance. The City Council of the City of Santa Ana hereby declares that it would have

The City Water Enterprise provides potable drinking water for all of the City's residents and
businesses, delivering an average of 30 million gallons a day. In order to accomplish this, the City
owns and operates a water system that consists of 480 miles of pipe, 22 groundwater wells, 4
pressure control stations, 7 import water connections, 7 water booster stations, 8 reservoirs, and
45,000 service connections.
The City supplies water to meet its demand from three sources. About 75% of the water supply
comes from the local wells from the Lower Santa Ana River Groundwater Basin, also known as
the Orange County Groundwater Basin. About 24% is imported surface water from the Colorado
River and San Joaquin Delta purchased from the Metropolitan Water District, and approximately
1 % comes from recycled water sources.
The City of Santa Ana receives recycled water from the Orange County Water District (OCWD)
recycled water system called the Green Acres Project (GAP). GAP is a water reuse effort that
provides recycled water for landscape irrigation at parks, schools, and golf courses; industrial
uses, such as carpet dyeing; toilet flushing; and cooling for power generation. Currently, recycled
water use in Santa Ana is limited, but includes the irrigation of some City parks, schools, street
medians, green belts, and commercial -industrial uses. Only about 1% of the City's total water
demand (350 acre-feet) is supplied by recycled water. Using recycled water directly supplants
potable water use which, in turn, reduces the demand on the groundwater basin and preserves
potable supplies for other uses.
The existing recycled water distribution system exists in only a small portion of the City and is
wholly owned and operated by OCWD. In order for the availability and use of recycled water to
19C-1
Recycled Water Master Plan

expand in the community, the City would need to build and operate its own recycled water
system. There are many environmental and economic benefits of expanding recycled water use
throughout the community, including a source of lower-cost water, saving local resources, and
the ability to irrigate landscapes in times of drought.
A recycled water master plan is utilized by municipalities and water agencies as a systematic
means to identify and assess the best and most efficient means of developing a recycled water
system that meets the demands and expectations of the community. The 2019 City of Santa
Ana Recycled Water Master Plan (Plan) includes the development of a computerized hydraulic
model, identification of recycled water demand in the community, identification of recycled water
sources, and establishes an ordered list of capital improvement projects and costs. The Plan will
serve as the basis of future decisions regarding the potential expansion of recycled water in the
City, and assist the City in obtaining available grant funding for the identified projects.
The Plan establishes a Capital Improvement Program schedule and budget for the proposed
expansion of the system. The Plan provides focus to the areas of most immediate need and
where benefits may be achieved, and includes required infrastructure assets necessary to deliver
recycled water to new users. Highlights from the Plan include the following:
• Establishes four phases of recycled water system expansion
• Identifies a total of 448 potential recycled water customers consuming about 3,032 acre-
feet of recycled water annually
• Identifies an initial investment of $6.22 million to deliver an additional 1,185 acre-feet of
recycled water annually to 141 potential users
• Plans for expansion of the system to reach all major areas of the City
• Uses a format consistent with requirements of regulatory and grant funding agencies.
The City of Santa Ana Water Resources staff will utilize the Plan to pursue grant funding
opportunities and prepare future operations and capital improvements schedules with
corresponding budgets. Staff will coordinate the Plan's findings along with the current and future
water rate studies to provide a more environmentally responsible water system for the Santa Ana
community.

amount not to exceed $40,800, for a one-time payment of purchase order for VMWare maintenance
support, subject to non -substantive changes approved by the City Manager and City Attorney.
Funds have been accounted for in the Information Technology Data Center account.
DISCUSSION
The City Hall and Police Department data centers house approximately thirty (30) physical
computer servers and more than two hundred eighty (280) virtual servers. These servers host a
number of enterprise and department applications such as the financial management system,
payroll system, utility billing system, business tax system, information technology service
management system, content management system, the City website, and email system. These
systems and services are critical to the operations of the City. In 2008, as part of the strategic plan,
the Information Technology Department took advantage of virtualization technology which enables
one physical server to run multiple virtual computer servers. This is accomplished by utilizing
specialized software, through a company named VMWare, to simulate physical computers. The
use of virtualization technology is an innovative strategy, and a best practice, that continues to
reduce hardware cost, power consumption costs, and provide a more flexible and reliable computer
hosting environment.
Ongoing licensing and support by an authorized VMWare reseller is required in order to continue
using this software, as well as to maintain the stringent service levels required for the data centers
at City Hall and Police Department. VMware software support contract will provide manufacturer
software maintenance and support services, on-call technical support, 24 hours per day / seven
days a week telephone support, and software upgrades at no additional cost.

Authorization to increase aggregate amount with HCI Systems, Inc. by $25,000 for an annual
amount not to exceed $50,000, for a one-time payment of purchase order for fire alarm testing and
inspection at the Jail, subject to non -substantive changes approved by the City Manager and City
Attorney. Funds have been accounted for in the Police Department's Building & Facility account.
DISCUSSION
The Santa Ana Police Department and Jail's five -level high rise facility contains a Fire and Life
safety system. The system requires routine inspections and testing exercises to ensure optimum
readiness since the facilities are a 24/7 operation and house detainees, in accordance with Orange
County Fire Authority and NFPA standards. The inspections and testing exercises are conducted
semi-annually. The equipment inspected consists of a fire pump, fire hydrants, fire connections
points, post indicator valves (PIV), pull stations, tamper alarms, main alarm panels, smoke
detectors, duct detectors, fire risers, fire hoses, fire sprinklers, fire phones, fire doors, audible and
visual devices and water flows. Each visit is quite complex, typically involving five to six inspectors
over a three- day period.
Informal quotes were solicited by the Police Department and the lowest quote was selected as a
reliable vendor. Each inspection is approximately $9,000 and performed twice a year, therefore
$18,000 is needed to complete the purchase. It is also recommended that an additional $7,000 be
available for deficiencies corrections that are needed as a result of the inspections and for
emergency repairs. A purchase order for $25,000 with HCI is being requested to cover these
expenses. Prior purchases combined with this purchase order exceeds the $25,000 aggregate limit
and therefore requires Council approval.

The SA -5 vault is one of seven connections between the City and Metropolitan Water District
(MWD). The connection safeguards access to MWD water and ensures reliability of drinking
water for residents and businesses, especially should there be an emergency or if the water
system is interrupted. To keep this important facility operational, City crews are required to
routinely access the vault to maintain the valve and connection.
The existing SA -5 vault is located under the northbound traffic lanes on Bristol Street, just north
of Alton Avenue (Exhibit 1). Currently, the City crews must block a lane on Bristol Street. By
relocating the vault, traffic impacts during routine maintenance will be minimized. The work will
also allow the existing piping, valves, and equipment to be replaced, and it includes modernizing
site electrical and instrumentation.
A Notice Inviting Bids was advertised on February 8 and 9, 2019, and bids were opened on
February 21, 2019. The following is a summary of the bid invitations made and the bids received:

Authorize the City Manager and Clerk of the Council to execute a legal services agreement with
the law firm of Talley & Talley, APC ("Attorneys") related to the provision of administrative and
litigation expertise concerning general liability, personnel and police matters. The term of the
agreement shall commence on July 1, 2019 and continue for a one-year term through June 30,
2020, in an amount not to exceed $250,000, subject to non -substantive changes approved by the

DISCUSSION
The City Attorney's Office ("CAO") handles and manages a variety of transactional and litigation
matters, several requiring special expertise for a limited or extended duration of time depending on
the project or litigation. In the fall of 2018, the City engaged the law firm of Talley & Talley, APC,
to provide such expertise and the relationship has been positive, resulting in efficiencies handling
litigation matters collaboratively with in-house staff. The Talley agreement was funded with money
from the budgeted, but unfilled, position of Chief Assistant City Attorney. The agreement provided
for a monthly retainer.
The CAO now seeks to continue the agreement with Talley, but proposes to do so on an hourly
basis, rather than the monthly retainer, to assist and supplement in-house services for the City, on
an as needed basis
Approval of this item supports the City's efforts to meet Goal No. 1 Community Safety, Goal No. 3
Economic Development, Goal No. 4. Government Financial Stability, and Goal No. 5 Community
Health, Livability, Engagement and Sustainability.

DISCUSSION
Legislative Platform
The Legislative Platform (Exhibit 1) is a tool to protect and promote the City's interests on priority
programs and projects, legislative proposals, and regulatory matters that may impact the City.
The Legislative Platform includes guiding principles and policy statements that allow City staff and
legislative advocates to address legislative and regulatory issues by providing a framework that
summarizes the City's position on policy issues and priorities, without precluding the
consideration of additional legislative and budget issues that may arise during the year.
The development of the 2019 State and Federal Legislative Platform included meetings with each
department to compile departmental goals that may be supplemented by legislation for the 2019
calendar year. The 2019 State and Federal Legislative Platform proposes the new year's guiding
principles that focus legislative advocacy efforts on: 1) preserving local control; 2) promoting fiscal
stability; 3) supporting funding opportunities; and 4) maximizing regional collaboration and
cooperation.
State lobbyist Townsend Public Affairs, Inc. and Federal lobbyist Holland & Knight, LLP provided
recommendations in collaboration with Executive Management staff to set City priorities in the 2019
Legislative Platform, which include, but are not limited to: Affordable Housing, Cannabis,
Homelessness and Economic Development, Housing Densities, Opportunity Zone Designation,
Park Bonds, Park Development, Recycled WaterMater Tax, and SB 2 Funding.

Legislative Scorecard
The 2018 State and Federal Legislative Scorecard (Exhibit 2) summarizes many accomplishments
and the progress achieved throughout the 2018 calendar year. Each department outlined the
completion of projects, grant funds acquired, and/or development attained. Further, our state and
federal lobbyists provided updates on pertinent legislation that occurred in 2018, as it relates to the
Legislative Scorecard.

Guidelines for Legislative Positions
The Legislative Platform provides a streamlined process through which the City Council,
City Manager, City staff and the City's legislative advocates can act in a timely manner in
response to legislative proposals. The Legislative Platform is adopted annually and
serves as an opportunity to identify specific priority areas of interest for the city and the
region, that benefit the community. The Legislative Platform is developed and
maintained using legislative positions taken by the City Council, input from the City
Council and City staff, research of current law and pending legislation, and discussions
with local legislative staff in consultation with the city's legislative advocates.
Once state and federal legislation is identified, staff will compose letters outlining the
city's position. These letters will include one of the following positions: support, support
if amended, oppose, oppose unless amended, neutral, or watch.
Legislation that is consistent with the Legislative Platform will be reviewed, approved
and signed by the Mayor, Mayor Pro Tem, or City Manager. In addition, legislative
positions that are deemed time -sensitive and are consistent with the Legislative Platform
may be signed and approved by the City Manager. Once approved, the position letter will
be sent to the bill's author, the City's legislative advocate, and other stakeholders as
deemed appropriate by staff, and a copy of the letter(s) will be distributed to the City
Council.
Legislation that is inconsistent with or silent in the City's Legislative Platform may be
placed on an agenda for consideration by the City Council. The City Manager may also
provide a letter of concern or interest without taking a formal position on a piece of
legislation, upon concurrence of the Legislative Affairs, Ethics, Transparency, and
Communications Council Committee for the City of Santa Ana.
