BACKGROUND: Integrated Pest Management (IPM) is a science-based approach to reduce the quantity of harmful pesticides used in landscape management. The key reasons cited for developing IPM policies are to reduce impacts on humans and the environment. The purpose of an IPM policy is to design landscapes that are naturally resistant to pests and utilize non-chemical controls where possible. This includes installing pest-resistant species, controlling weeds with mulch and dense plantings, mechanical removal with powered equipment or grazing animals, and only using chemical controls when all other methods have been determined to not be effective in eliminating the pests to the desired levels. IPM policies typically specify using the least toxic pesticide first before applying more toxic pesticides.

The proposed IPM policy will ensure the greatest protection to city staff and the community when managing pests. The policy provides clear guidance on the management of pests on city-owned landscapes, direction on&lt;br /&gt;Action:  to waive reading of the text and adopt&lt;br /&gt;Result: Pass</description><category>CC- Report</category><pubDate>Sat, 03 May 2025 00:43:28 GMT</pubDate></item><item><title>24-0219</title><link>https://santa-rosa.legistar.com/Gateway.aspx?M=LD&amp;From=RSS&amp;ID=6563871&amp;GUID=B6173232-2BD9-4D14-9409-EE9AE046F8D4</link><guid isPermaLink="false">B6173232-2BD9-4D14-9409-EE9AE046F8D4-2025-05-03-00-43-29</guid><description>File #: 24-0219&lt;br /&gt;Ver.: 1&lt;br /&gt;Agenda #: &lt;br /&gt;Type: CC- Communication&lt;br /&gt;Title: LATE CORRESPONDENCE&lt;br /&gt;Action: received and filed&lt;br /&gt;Result: </description><category>CC- Communication</category><pubDate>Sat, 03 May 2025 00:43:29 GMT</pubDate></item><item><title>24-0118</title><link>https://santa-rosa.legistar.com/Gateway.aspx?M=LD&amp;From=RSS&amp;ID=6558385&amp;GUID=1B9017D2-46C8-4A64-8C49-F5EEEC658735</link><guid isPermaLink="false">1B9017D2-46C8-4A64-8C49-F5EEEC658735-2025-05-03-00-43-28</guid><description>File #: 24-0118&lt;br /&gt;Ver.: 1&lt;br /&gt;Agenda #: 16.1&lt;br /&gt;Type: CC- Public Hearing&lt;br /&gt;Title: PUBLIC HEARING - DEVELOPMENT RELATED COST OF SERVICE FEE UPDATE

BACKGROUND: The Planning and Economic Development Department has contracted with MGT Consulting to perform a cost of service study analyzing the full labor and indirect costs associated with providing development review services such as application processing, plan review, long range planning, and construction inspections. The study is being utilized to set the foundation for a comprehensive update to the Planning and Economic Development Department’s service fee schedule. Staff is recommending that the Council adopt development service fees to reflect the changes in fee descriptions, the removal of obsolete fee categories and the full cost rates identified within the cost of service study, with an effective date of July 1, 2024. In addition, the Planning and Economic Development Department is recommending the adoption of specific general fund supported subsidies to reduce fees on certain application and service types that support City Council development goals.
