SUBJECT: Introduction (First Reading) of An Ordinance Authorizing Lease of Real Property
Located at 3 Rocca Drive, Petaluma, CA (APN: 006-423-033) to the Veteran's
Resource Centers of America and Authorizing the City Manager to Execute the
Lease and Related Documents
RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Council Introduce the attached Ordinance Authorizing Lease of
Real Property Located at 3 Rocca Drive, Petaluma, CA (APN 006-423-033) to the Veteran's
Resource Centers of America and Authorizing the City Manager to Execute the Lease and
Related Documents.
BACKGROUND
The City of Petaluma has historically acted in partnership with local nonprofits to address the
Council's goal of providing safe, decent, affordable housing for the community's low-income
people. The Veteran's Resource Centers of America (formerly the Vietnam Veterans of
California) provides essential social and human services to the veterans in our community. The
property at 3 Rocca Drive, which is owned by the City of Petaluma, was purchased as part of the
Flood Control project in 1996 to be used as a construction office.
After the completion of the flood control project, the City Council directed staff to lease the
house to the Vietnam Veterans of California, which has changed their name to Veteran's
Resource Centers of America, for use as a transitional house for previously homeless veterans.
The property needed rehabilitation which was completed in the Fall of 2003. A lease was
entered into between the City of Petaluma and the Veteran's Resource Centers of America in
September 1, 2003.
DISCUSSION
The current lease expired on September 1, 2014. The house at 3 Rocca Drive is an 8 -bed
residential transitional housing facility for homeless veterans. The Veterans Resource Centers of
America desires to extend the lease and are seelcing five additional years. Many of the veterans
served in the program have substance abuse issues, along with physical and mental health
problems. This program provides supportive services geared to the acquisition of independent
living skills and permanent housing through, either sustainable wage employment or subsidized
housing for veterans who are permanently disabled.
Pursuant to the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), Title 14,
Chapter 3 of the California Code of Regulations (CEQA Guidelines), sections 15061, 15301, the
action qualifies for a categorical exemption because it involves operation, repair, maintenance,
permitting, leasing, licensing and minor alteration of an existing facility involving negligible or
no expansion of use beyond that existing at the time of the City's determination.
FINANCIAL IMPACTS
In consideration that Veteran's Resource Centers of America is providing a valuable community
service by assisting this community's veterans, the rent on the leased space is proposed to be
$10.00 per year.

AND AUTHORIZING THE CITY MANAGER TO EXECUTE ALL DOCUMENTS NECESSARY TO
COMPLETE THE LEASE TRANSACTION
WHEREAS, Section 46 of the Charter of the City of Petaluma requires that specified
actions for the acquisition, sale, or lease of real property be taken by Ordinance; and,
WHEREAS, Landlord owns in fee simple real property located at 3 Rocca Drive,

and the Landlord desires to provide a location at which the Tenant may offer such services,
subject to the terms and conditions of the lease attached to and made a part of this ordinance

WHEREAS, the City Council finds this action qualifies for categorical exemption under the
California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to Title 14, Chapter 3 of the California

operation, repair, maintenance, permitting, leasing, licensing and minor alteration of an existing
facility involving negligible or no expansion of use beyond that existing at the time of the City's
determination, in that leasing to Veteran's Resource Centers of America the City owned
property at 3 Rocca Drive for transitional housing pursuant to the lease will not result in significant
