Minutes of the Regular Meeting of the Winters City Council held via Zoom on November 2, 2021 ____________________________________________________________________________ City of Winters Mayor Pro Tem Biasi shared that the evening before the County Advisory Committee narrowed down the proposed maps to maps 2, 4A, and the El Concilio, which were forwarded to the Board of Supervisors. Mayor Cowan decided each redistricting jurisdiction would be discussed separately. Related to the Yolo County Board of Supervisors, the Council discussed different perspectives related to remaining within District 2 and with Davis, or a preference for returning to the larger, rural and agricultural area more closely associated with District 5.  Kate Laddish thanked council for the discussion and identified the need to keep Winters and its outlying areas whole.  Corrine Martinez agreed that Winters’ interests align with district 5 and encouraged the City Council to support that outcome. The Council majority identified map 2 as the preferred outcome. Councilmember Loren cautioned about the tone of the letter. Related to the proposed State Senate boundaries, the Council agreed that the proposed map is comparable to the current boundaries and the Council supported the current proposed boundaries. Related to the proposed State Assembly boundaries for the Winters area, Councilmembers expressed concern that Winters was being grouped with unlike communities and should be remain with its Yolo County communities and other adjacent rural counties.  Chris Turkovich commented that Winters belongs with communities of interest on all levels.  Kate Laddish appreciated the conversation and noted the proposed State Senate and Congressional maps were improvements, the result of many voices advocating that Yolo County remain whole, and Yolo County and Solano County should be grouped together. She requested that council not mention in any letter that Yolo have nothing in common with Solano County.  Corrine Martinez commented that carving Winters out of Yolo County should be corrected and that Yolo County better aligns with Napa and Lake Counties rather than Solano County, similar to the State Senate proposed boundaries. Regarding the proposed Congressional map, Councilmembers noted that Winters was included in a district that reached south into central Contra Costa County and the Bay 7

The Councilmembers concurred with the desire to be closer to Solano, Yolo, Lake, and Napa Counties.  Chris Turkovich commented that this map needed to be improved upon and Winters needed to be included with communities of interest, and identified economic and cultural alignment with Yolo and Solano counties.  Kate Laddish noted the interactive features of the map function on the CRC website. She noted the proposed boundaries are much improved compared to the previous maps, and identified the need to keep Yolo County whole which the current map does.

CITY COUNCIL STAFF REPORT TO: Honorable Mayor and Councilmembers DATE: November 16, 2021 FROM: Kathleen Salguero Trepa, City Manager SUBJECT: Resolution No. 2021-78 Renewing Authorization and Making Findings and Determinations Under AB 361 for Continued Virtual Meetings. RECOMMENDATION: Adopt Resolution No. 2021-78 Renewing Authorization and Making Findings and Determinations Under AB 361 for Continued Virtual Meetings. BACKGROUND: AB 361 allows the City Council and all commissions, committees and other legislative bodies of the City of Winters to meet virtually or telephonically without meeting certain Brown Act posting requirements, identifying each teleconference location, requiring each teleconference location to be publicly accessible, or requiring a quorum of the legislative body to be physically present within the City. Virtual public meetings still require standard meeting agendas and notices and the ability for the public to provide public comment. At its October 5, 2021 meeting, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 2021-65 making findings and determinations under AB 361 for continued virtual meetings. To continue virtual meetings, the Council must make findings every 30 days that 1) it has reconsidered the circumstances of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic state of emergency and 2) either the state of emergency continues to directly impact the ability of the public to meet safely in person, or state or local officials continue to impose or recommend measures to promote social distancing. 10

2 DISCUSSION: AB 361 into law, which allows virtual public meetings to continue through January 1, 2024, provided that: 1. The Council holds a meeting during a proclaimed state of emergency, and state or local officials have imposed or recommended measures to promote social distancing; or 2. The Council holds a meeting during a proclaimed state of emergency and determines or has determined by majority vote that as a result of the emergency, meeting in person would present imminent risks to the health or safety of attendees. At its October 5, 2021 City Council meeting, Council adopted Resolution No. 2021-65 making the initial findings and determinations under AB 361 for continued virtual meetings under AB 361. The City Council has reconsidered the circumstances of the state emergency and finds that state of local officials continue to impose or recommend measures to promote social distancing. The approval of Resolution No. 2021-71 and its renewal would apply to the City Council and all commissions, committees, and other legislative bodies of the City of Winters. This item will be placed on the agenda as a recurring consent item for every future City Council meeting as long as a state emergency exists and the City Council desires to hold a teleconference meeting (including hybrid meetings). This is because AB 361 requires the Council to renew its every 30 days after teleconferencing for the first time under AB 361. The City Council regularly meets on the first and third Tuesdays of the month. The number of days between one first Tuesday of the month to the next, or one third Tuesday of the month to the next, could be more than 30 days for some intervals. Placing the item on the agenda as a recurring consent item ensures that there will not be a lapse in satisfying the renewal requirements under AB 361. AB 361 does not require in-person meetings if the City Council decides to continue with remote or Zoom meetings during the state emergency. AB 361 also does not require the City Council to hold remote or Zoom meetings during the state emergency. However, any in-person attendance would still need to comply with health orders related to masking or social distancing, as applicable. Council provided staff direction at the October 5, 2021, meeting to implement a hybrid system that allows for both in-person and remote access to public meetings for either councilmembers, staff or the public. Two people are required to manage a hybrid system: one to manage the Zoom platform and the other to manage the Granicus system. Staff is 11

3 currently in the process of making modifications to finish implementing the hybrid system. Once implemented, a hybrid meeting would also be an option for the City Council. A copy of AB 361 is available at https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billTextClient.xhtml?bill_id=202120220AB361. FISCAL IMPACT: There is no fiscal impact. ATTACHMENTS: 1. Resolution 2021-78 2. Yolo County Health Officer’s Memo Regarding Remote Public Meetings 12

RESOLUTION NO. 2021-78 A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF WINTERS RENEWING AUTHORIZATION AND MAKING FINDINGS AND DETERMINATIONS UNDER AB 361 FOR CONTINUED VIRTUAL MEETINGS WHEREAS, the Ralph M. Brown Act (Gov. Code § 54950 et seq.) generally requires local agencies meeting via teleconference, including through other virtual or electronic means, to provide public access at each location in which members of the legislative body are teleconferencing; and WHEREAS, the Legislature recently enacted Assembly Bill 361, Chapter 165, Statutes of 2021 (“AB 361”), which amended Government Code section 54953 to allow local agencies to meet fully virtually during a proclaimed state of emergency if state or local officials have imposed or recommended measures to promote social distancing; and WHEREAS, the Governor issued a proclamation declaring a state of emergency on March 4, 2020, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, pursuant to section 8625 of the California Emergency Services Act, and this proclaimed state of emergency currently remains in effect; and WHEREAS, the City Council of the City of Winters has reconsidered the circumstances of the state of emergency; and WHEREAS, state or local officials continue to recommend measures to promote social distancing; and WHEREAS, according to the Yolo County Health Officer, the grounds for the social distancing recommendation include the unique characteristics of public governmental meetings, including the increased mixing associated with bringing together people from across the community, the need to enable those who are immunocompromised or unvaccinated to be able to safely continue to fully participate in public governmental meetings, and the challenges of ensuring compliance with safety requirements and recommendations at such meetings; and WHEREAS, the continuation of virtual meetings will allow for full participation by members of the public until social distancing recommendations are lifted; and WHEREAS, the City Council of the City of Winters desires to continue to hold virtual meetings pursuant to AB 361 and Government Code section 54953(e). NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED, by the City Council of the City of Winters as follows: 1.
