It's only when their programs crash or they can't receive an attachment the complaints start coming in. Tonight felt a bit like that and I don't think it was warranted. applaud you both for your service to this city and having to make tough decisions on the city's behalf especially when the optics can be hard to see for all residents. Honestly when first heard about the Wine Tree eviction I too thought it was a bad idea but when the facts are presented and the fiscal restraints are known I can see the logic in it and see how their are many more dimensions to it then first thought. David I think you handled yourself admirably in what must have been an uncomfortable evening for you and commend your patience with the residents.

PETERS, CITY PLANNER SUBJECT: HOUSING ELEMENT 2024 ANNUAL PROGRESS REPORT RECOMMENDATION Review and accept the Amador City Housing Element Annual Progress Report 2024 for submittal to the California Department ofHousing and Community Development and the Governor's Office of Planning and Research. BACKGROUND Local jurisdictions are required to submit a Housing Element Annual Report (APR) to the Governor's Office of Planning and Research (OPR) and the Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) by April 1 of each year. The report provides information to the State and the public on the implementation ofthe City's General Plan Housing Element and progress towards our Regional Housing Needs Allocation numbers. APR's must be presented to the local legislative body for its review and acceptance, usually as a consent or discussion item on a regular meeting agenda. DISCUSSION The Amador City 6th Cycle Housing Element was adopted by the city in 2023 and certified by HCD in February 2025. As with last year's APR, the 2024 APR is based on the programs in the 6h Cycle Housing Element. The most pertinent section of the APR is the Housing Element Implementation Table (Table D) which summarizes progress made on the programs outlined in the Housing Element. Table D is attached for Council review and consideration. There was progress made with implementation, particularly with the establishment of the Countywide Housing Working Group which held three meetings in 2024 and addressed accessory dwelling units (ADUs), Water Efficiency Landscaping Ordinance and growth projections for Amador Water Agency's Master Plan. As staff availability and budget allow, additional programs will be implemented throughout the Housing Cycle. The City Council should review and consider acceptance of the Annual Progress Report information. Once accepted, staff will submit the APR to the State by the April 1, 2025 deadline.

We put a significant amount of time, money, & physical labor into enhancing the Old City Hall at 14203 Main Street. In April and May we spent countless hours and days cleaning, priming and painting the walls (which was recommended to brighten up the darkness). This entailed over 3 coats of Kilz primer prior to over 5 gallons of paint and an additional 3 coats to cover stains coming through. We covered holes that were covered with metal grates rather than wood. This not only brightened it up significantly but it also helped to remove the stench of old dirty wood. This delayed our opening our doors until June 2024. We invested this time and money as we expected it to be a retail establishment for a considerable amount of time. As we received notice to vacate after being in business only 6 months, we would like to ask the City Council to consider reimbursing us for the lighting and fan fixture we installed. We believe the fixtures are much more appealing and energy efficient than the previous fluorescent light strips that we replaced. We have retained the unappealing fluorescent lighting and will replace it should the council choose not to provide reimbursement. Attached is the invoice for the lighting and fan totaling $583.84, which is what we paid. We would appreciate the City Council's consideration of this request.
