| 1 | 14.1 | Referendum Petition Against Ord. No 4072 | CC- Report | REPORT - REFERENDUM PETITION CHALLENGING ORDINANCE NO. 4072
BACKGROUND: On September 26, 2016, the Petition was filed with the City Clerk. The Petition challenges all provisions of the Ordinance except for one: The Petition does not challenge the provision of the Ordinance that repealed both the 90-day moratorium on rent increases which took effect on July 7, 2016, and the Just Cause Eviction Ordinance which took effect on September 16, 2016.
Currently, the Sonoma County Registrar of Voters (“Registrar”) is in the process of reviewing the Petition to determine whether it contains a sufficient number of signatures of qualified voters.
• If the Registrar determines that the petition is insufficient, the challenged portions of the Ordinance will then take effect at the next City Council meeting once the City Clerk reports the Registrar’s determination.
• If the Registrar determines that the petition is sufficient, the City Council must decide whether to (1) repeal the challenged portions of the Ordinance or (2) submit the issue to the voters at the November 2018 general e | | |

| 1 | 14.2 | Expanded Year-Round Community Homeless Assistance Program (CHAP) | CC- Report | REPORT - EXPANDED YEAR-ROUND COMMUNITY HOMELESS ASSISTANCE PROGRAM (CHAP)
BACKGROUND: On July 19, 2016, Council received a report from staff regarding the potential for an expanded year-round Community Homeless Assistance Program (CHAP). Staff sought direction as to the scope of activities to be permitted under such program, potentially to include safe parking, the placement and maintenance of portable toilets, provision of temporary overnight shelter, a safe camping program, and other measures such as increasing availability of bathroom facilities, or storage for personal belongings. Council, by motion, directed staff to work with the Homeless Policy Subcommittee to prepare appropriate ordinance amendments for an expanded CHAP. On August 9, 2016, Council declared a local homeless emergency which gives the Council additional flexibility to address local homelessness. The declaration could allow Council, by resolution, to direct the immediate implementation of CHAP on an interim basis until the City is able to complete the necessary ordinance amendments for a more permanent sol | | |

| 1 | 14.6 | Prop 52 | CC- Report | REPORT - PROPOSITION 52 - THE INITIATIVE'S BALLOT TITLE IS: STATE FEES ON HOSPITALS. FEDERAL MEDI-CAL MATCHING FUNDS. INITIATIVE STATUTORY AND CONSTITUTIONAL AMENDMENT.
BACKGROUND: The federal government's Medicaid program helps pay for health care services provided to low-income patients. In California, this program is called Medi-Cal. For a state to receive federal Medicaid funds, the state has to contribute a matching amount of its own money. In 2009, a new program was created such that California hospitals were required to pay a fee to help California obtain the available federal Medicaid funds. This program has resulted in California hospitals receiving roughly $2 billion a year in additional federal money to Medi-Cal. However, California has diverted some of the funds from the hospital fee program to the state's general fund.
If the initiative is approved by the state's voters, it will add language to the California Constitution to require voter approval of changes to the hospital fee program to make it harder for the legislature to divert these funds from the origina | | |
