BACKGROUND: In December, 2007 the City of Salina experienced a severe ice storm that resulted in more than 15,600 tons of tree and limb debris throughout the City along the ROW and within our park system. V 12 y 42•' In December, 2021 the City of Salina experienced a severe wind storm that resulted in significant infrastructure damage including additional tree and limb damage. i 4 n, 3 IA CITY OF SALINA REQUEST FOR CITY COMMISSION ACTION DATE TIME 10/10/2022 4:00 P.M. AGENDA SECTION ORIGINATING DEPARTMENT: FISCAL APPROVAL: NO: BY: ITEM PUBLIC WORKS FINAL APPROVAL: NO: Page 2 BY: Jim Teutsch BY: And most recently, on September 17, 2022, 60-80 mph wind gusts caused tree and limb damage throughout the Community. Public Works and Parks staff completed a tree and limb pick-up from September 26-30, 2022, and combined with citizen drop-offs at the landfill, damage is estimated at about 400-415 tons. Additionally, in 2021 the City of Salina automated its refuse collection system with the purchase of six (6) new automated side -load (ASL) packer trucks and approximately 20,000 new automated sanitation carts. The new ASL trucks are approximately 13' tall. These trucks, as well as other large public and private sector trucks (tractor -trailers, fire department apparatuses, moving trucks, package delivery trucks, and other large vehicles) frequently contact the ROW tree canopy causing damage to trees and increasing the risks associated with large limbs breaking off or potentially making contact with cars, trucks, or other motor vehicles, and pedestrians. Further, regular contact by vehicles can weaken the trees, making them more susceptible to damage during winds, ice storms, or other inclement weather conditions. Currently, City staff responds on a case-by-case basis. i These circumstances have prompted staff from the City Manager's Office and the Public Works and Parks and Recreation Departments to investigate developing a strategic tree pruning mitigation plan to help reduce the financial and operational expenses for City departments and the residents of the City of Salina resulting from severe storms that cause significant damage to the ROW and Parks tree canopy throughout the City. In order to complete the necessary pruning of the entire ROW and Parks tree canopy and develop an ongoing strategic program to help mitigate storm damage risks, staff proposes submission of an application for cost-sharing for the purchase of a one -ton lift truck, a chipper/chip box, a complete arborist tools and equipment package described in this application, and (at City expense) the commitment of four (4) full-time employees to prune all public trees in accordance with the International Society of Arboriculture (ISA) best management practices and ANSI A300 Pruning Standards (2017 or later) using the natural pruning system. It should be noted that the Hazard Mitigation Grant Program — Letter of Interest (LOI) addresses five (5) Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) Community Lifelines as described below. A lifeline enables the continuous operation of critical government and business functions and is essential to human health and safety or economic security. Lifelines are the most fundamental services in the community that, when stabilized, enable all other aspects of society to function.

AGENDA SECTION ORIGINATING DEPARTMENT: FISCAL APPROVAL: NO: BY: PUBLIC WORKS ITEM FINAL APPROVAL: NO: Page 3 BY: Jim Teutsch BY: Safety and Security - Law Enforcement/Security, Fire Service, Search and Rescue, Government Service, Community Safety • Specifically, this program seeks to maximize the communication and coordination efforts with emergency response agencies to ensure our streets and alleys remain accessible for first responders performing life-saving operations during disasters and other times of crisis. Health and Medical - Medical Care, Public Health, Patient Movement, Medical Supply Chain, Fatality Management The importance of maintaining a healthy tree canopy that is capable of withstanding severe weather events is highlighted as emergency responders need to have open access to all routes throughout the community to ensure appropriate medical care and patient movement to clinics and the Salina Regional Health Center (hospital) is possible. Energy - Power Grid, Fuel © • As severe weather events such as ice and windstorms impact a community, tree and limb damage knocking down power lines and damaging the power grid can cause additional EM�av frustrations and in extreme cases directly harm the health and safety of motorists and residents. �ar.•q Communications - Infrastructure, Responder Communications, Alerts Warnings and Messages, Finance, 911 and Dispatch Fallen trees and limbs can directly damage public infrastructure and private property. It can R► require undue attention of dispatchers, emergency responders and various support agencies who may otherwise be able to focus greater attention on other pressing community needs, rather than concerns of maintaining safe and open lanes of travel. Tree and limb damage can be expensive for public and private organizations as well as individuals and families. Transportation - Highway/Roadway/Motor Vehicle, Mass Transit, Railway, U'� Aviation, Maritime This lifeline is most directly impacted by Salina's City-wide Right-of-way (ROW) and Parks Tree T9^�^^^ Pruning — Storm Damage Mitigation Proposal as fallen ROW and Parks trees and branches may block vital traffic throughout the community. This plan supports the City of Salina's strategic goals of Infrastructure, quality of life, municipal organization, economic development and finances. Further this provides numerous public benefits, including improved community aesthetics, decreased risk of negative environmental impacts, reduced times to enable passable roadways following severe weather, reduced risk of personal injuries, reduced risk of vehicle accidents, reduced risk of emergency response delays due to fallen trees and limbs, reduced risk of damage to public infrastructure and private property, reduced time and effort spent by dispatchers and emergency response workers and agencies. CITY OF SALINA REQUEST FOR CITY COMMISSION ACTION DATE TIME 10!10/2022 4:00 P.M. AGENDA SECTION ORIGINATING DEPARTMENT: FISCAL APPROVAL: NO: BY: ITEM PUBLIC WORKS FINAL APPROVAL: NO: Page 4 BY: Jim Teutsch BY: The Hazard Mitigation Grant Program — Letter of Interest (LOI) requests grant funds in the amount of a 75% Federal Cost Share of $165,373.35 with a 25% Local Cost Share of $55,124.45 in support of the capital purchase to perform the ongoing pruning of the City of Salina's ROW and Parks tree canopy as described in this application. This recommended joint department tree pruning endeavor was first presented to City Commissioners on November 22, 2021. While this plan was conceptually discussed, the equipment purchase and method of staffing has not yet been accounted for within the budget. The staffing recommendation anticipates the use of two existing positions within the Parks Department and the reclassification and transfer of two existing positions in the Department of Public Works to the Parks Department. If the grant application is approved by the KDEM, City staff will return to the City Commission for recommended action with the appropriate staffing table adjustments. The following slides represent the updated version of that presentation to reflect the program as outlined in the Mitigation Grant Program LOI. Operational Needs for the SWM Plan • Tree pruning for safe and efficient refuse collection • Sanitation truck and equipment storage The City-wide tree pruning endeavor is a very important part of the 2022 Saline County Solid Waste Management Plan five year review. City-wide tree pruning is discussed in Chapter Six (6) of the plan as one of twelve topics staff developed during its functional needs analysis and expanded for the Mitigation LOI to include trees within the City's park system* as follows: Collection Issue 4: City-wide ROW and *Parks Tree Pruning Discussion: In the next ten (10) year planning cycle, it is anticipated that the City-wide right-of-way (ROW) tree canopy will require significant pruning to permit sanitation and other large commercial trucks to safely access all streets and alleys. *Additionally, trees within the City's park system will require pruning to ensure the health of the canopy and the continued safety of all parks' visitors. Recommendation: Supplement two existing Park Technicians with two new Park Technician positions to be funded from Public Works (One full time employee will be transferred from an existing vacant Worker/Driver position and one full time employee will be transferred from an existing vacant Streets Laborer position). Purchase a new-boom/bucket truck, a new chipper/chipper box and additional tools, equipment and supplies from the Solid Waste Fund balance to safely and efficiently prune all public trees City-wide on a five-year basis.

ORIGINATING DEPARTMENT PUBLIC WORKS BY: Jim Teutsch FISCAL APPROVAL: BY: FINAL APPROVAL: BY: This four -person crew would respond to inclement weather emergencies and split its duties between Public Works Sanitation/ROW and Parks & Forestry on a 60% - 40% basis respectively. During periods of winter weather when ice removal and snow plowing operations are required, the two Public Works -funded employees would report to Public Works for assignment and the two Parks - funded employees would report to Parks and Forestry for assignment. The four -person tree pruning crew configuration provides the necessary staff to properly mitigate the risks associated with tree and limb damage during severe weather events. The additional capital expenses within the Mitigation Grant Program LOI provide the necessary tools and equipment to ensure the joint arborist crew can manage the City's tree canopy in a safe and effective manner while striving to reduce the negative effects of storm damage throughout the community and thereby increasing public safety. The Parks and Recreation Department would be responsible for ongoing operational expenses related to the care and maintenance of the vehicle, tools and equipment, including the cost of fuel and replacement parts in future budget years. The four -person crew is needed to safely and effectively prune all City of Salina ROW and Parks trees in keeping with industry best practices: In example, a given tree - pruning crew configuration may consist of: • 1 lift truck bucket operator and in -tree limb cutter. • 2 workers cutting and moving branches. 1 worker loading branches into the chipper or performing other site tasks. Additionally, crew members must deploy traffic safety warning signs and cones, clean-up the site, load equipment, and move to the next location. implement City-wide Tree Pruning Provide 4 -person Arborist crew and equipment • 2 crew members funded via Parks & Forestry • 2 crew members funded via Public Works • Provides 4 -person crew under City Forester/ (Parks and Recreation Deputy Director) Purchase lift truck. $147,311.00 • Purchase Chipper/Chip Box: $58,186.80 • Purchase arborist tools and equipment: $15,0001 Implement City-wide Tree Pruning Zone mrip i5 year (ycle) Work ROW three days/week on ,ones ] S Work two days/week in ❑ y parks - share ne urres benween both departmrnn Rezpond to rmergencV nve/Ilmb removal ope,ations forsn cr, and hif.h.wlnd events on an az needed bas, City-wide benefit for all streeb, alleyn and parks C'ty wide bene(, for all rez d, nit and (ny wide low bang bg 1— add rese 1"sit tntly ! 10 - 3,300, l i l AGENDA SECTION NO: ITEM NO: Page 6 CITY OF SALINA REQUEST FOR CITY COMMISSION ACTION DATE TIME 10/10/2022 4:00 P.M. ORIGINATING DEPARTMENT: I FISCAL APPROVAL: BY: PUBLIC WORKS FINAL APPROVAL: BY: Jim Teutsch I BY: The City is divided into five sections. While the crew will work in all sections throughout the year on an as -needed basis, each section will be the priority or primary focus during a one-year period, thus enabling them to complete the City's entire tree canopy every five years. • Zone 1: Northwest Salina • Zone 2: Southwest Salina • Zone 3: North Salina • Zone 4: East Salina • Zone 5: South Salina In order to maintain the ROW tree canopy at a height that meets the minimum code requirements of 13 feet above street level, the crew will prune trees to a height of 15 feet, thus enabling two feet of tree growth before the crew would need to return to a previously pruned location. This will help the crew provide and maintain adequate canopy height to prevent unnecessary contact with ROW trees by trucks and other large vehicles. FISCAL NOTE: This Hazard Mitigation Grant Program — Letter of Interest (LOI) requests grant funds in the amount of a 75 percent cost share of $165,373.35 with a 25 percent local cost share of $55,124.45 (totaling $220,497.80) in support of the capital purchase to perform the ongoing pruning of the City of Salina's ROW and Parks tree canopy as described in the application.

It provided funds when the City offered Venture Grants totaling $448,284.30 from 1998-2008 until that program was suspended from 2009 to present due to: 1) a lack of innovative grant applications that targeted high-volume categories of waste as outlined in the Solid Waste Management Plan, 2) ongoing economic difficulties within the City, and 3) the recognition that the City would require significant funds for major projects in the future, such as a community -wide recycling, landfill gas -to -energy, landfill capital equipment replacement, closure/post-closure activities, the Recycling Feasibility Study and Business Plan, and other activities. The 25 percent local cost share would be paid from the $1 per ton set-aside from the Solid Waste Fund, which currently has a balance of $1,166,880.43 (as of 6/30/2022) as shown below: AGENDA SECTION NO: ITEM NO: Page 7 CITY OF SALINA REQUEST FOR CITY COMMISSION ACTION Year Actual Tonnage'i Expended Balance Forward Revenue i_ 2010 $ 1996 $ 93,333.00 $ 19,617.99 $ 73,715.01 1997, $ 84,969.00 $ 16,842.49 $ 141,841.52 1998 $ 82,770.00 $ 54,587.83 �', $ 170,023.69 1 1999 $ 80,731.00 I $163,679.10 $ 87,075.59 2000. $ 72,775.00 $173,083.71 $ (13,233.12). 20011 $ 76,416.62 $ 38,904.90 $ 24,278.60 20021 $ 82,788.84 $ 19,353.07 $ 87,714.38 2003. $ 88,392.77 $134,411.08 $ 41,696.07 2004 $ 90,069.27; $ 28,512.07 $ 103,253.27 2005 $ 88,097.00 $ 25,560.41 $ 165,789.86 2006 $ 99,835.15 $ 83,785.51 $ 181,839.50 2007 $ 100,626.20 $ 46,622.87 $ 235,842.83 2008 $ 109,567.05 I $ 40,450.66 $ 304,959.22 ORIGINATING DEPARTMENT: PUBLIC WORKS BY: Jim Teutsch DATE TIME 10/10/2022 4:00 P.M.

This set-aside also funds the costs of the Solid Waste Management Committee (printing, name plates, public outreach, etc.). Staff has continued to avoid spending from the set-aside funds as much as possible in order to increase the balance sufficiently to help fund several of the twelve newest recommendations found in the updated Chapter six (6) of the Solid Waste Management Plan that are specific to the diversion of waste from the landfill (items 3, 4, 9, and 11 underlined below). These items were approved by the City Commission on September 26, 2022 as an integral part of the five-year review of the Solid Waste Management Plan, which sets 10 -year goals for solid waste management activities. In cooperation with the Zero Waste Initiative, City Staff sought to combine private sector and public sector diversion activities within the Solid Waste Management Plan to provide a comprehensive approach to solid waste management planning for Saline County into the future. The other items in this list would be paid from fund balances in Sanitation and Solid Waste (items 1-2, 5-8, and 10). 1. Planning for landfill cell closure and post -closure expenses. 2. Continuing the old city dump remediation program as required by KDHE. 3. Implementing an organized recycling collection program in City and County offices. 4. Implementing a City-wide tree pruning operation to permit sanitation and other large commercial trucks to safely access all streets and alleys. 5. Constructing a new sanitation equipment and storage building for the new fully -automated side - load packer trucks. 6. Continuing to monitor landfill gas production at the Salina Municipal Solid Waste Landfill and financially preparing for a landfill gas collection system as necessary.

The Parks and Recreation Department intend to fill their two positions from existing vacancies, so there is no increase in personnel costs. The Department of Public Works also proposes to fund the two additional positions by reclassifying one existing position in the Sanitation work group and one position in the Streets work group, so this results in a savings of about $2,600/year for Sanitation and no additional personnel costs for Streets (see table below). It is recommended these positions be identified as wage grade 104 on the new pay scale at $17.71/hour (base pay) to $18.60/hour (+5% with experience) per hour. If the grant application is approved by the KDEM. City staff will return to the City Commission for recommended action with the appropriate staffing table adjustments to specify the necessary personnel transfers. In order to better understand the proposed four -person crew as described in this request, the following staffing table is provided. The two existing Parks Technician positions are already classified as grade 104. The Streets Laborer position would need to be reclassified as a Parks Technician position, but is also already a grade 104. The Sanitation Worker/Driver (grade 105) position would need to be reclassified as a Parks Technician (104). Staff is working on options to enable the City to formally codify the $1 per ton set-aside to be established as a separate fund and designed for use in financing public sector solid waste diversion activities as outlined in the Solid Waste Management Plan.

In December, 2021 the City of Salina experienced a severe wind storm that resulted in significant infrastructure damage including additional tree and limb damage. [City-wide Right-of-way (ROW) and Parks Tree Pruning—Storm Damage Mitigation Proposal] [10/10/22) And most recently, on September 17, 2022, 60-80 mph wind gusts caused tree and limb damage throughout the Community. Public Works and Parks staff completed a tree and limb pick-up from September 26-30, 2022, and combined with citizen drop-offs at the landfill, damage is estimated at about 400-415 tons. Additionally, in 2021 the City of Salina automated its refuse collection system with the purchase of six (6) new automated side -load (ASL) packer trucks and approximately 20,000 new automated sanitation carts. The new ASL trucks are approximately 13' tall. These trucks, as well as other large public and private sector trucks (tractor -trailers, fire department apparatuses, moving trucks, package delivery trucks, and other large vehicles) frequently contact the ROW tree canopy causing damage to trees and increasing the risks associated with large limbs breaking off and potentially making contact with cars, trucks, or other motor vehicles, and pedestrians. Further, regular contact by vehicles can weaken the trees, making them more susceptible to damage during winds, ice storms or other inclement weather conditions. Currently, staff responds on a case-by-case basis. • e •� ; i These circumstances have prompted staff from the City Manager's Office and the Public Works and Parks and Recreation Departments to investigate developing a strategic tree pruning mitigation plan to help reduce the financial and operational expenses for City departments and the residents of the City of Salina resulting from severe storms that cause significant damage to the ROW and Parks tree canopy throughout the City. In order to complete the necessary pruning of the entire ROW and Parks tree canopy and develop an ongoing strategic program to help mitigate storm damage risks, staff proposes a cost -share for the purchase of a one -ton lift truck, a chlpperlchip box, a complete arborist tools and equipment package, and (at City expense) the hiring and deployment of four (4) employees to prune all trees on an continua[ basis in accordance with the International Society of Arboriculture (ISA) best management practices and ANSI A300 Pruning Standards (2017 or later) using the natural pruning system.

In what way? The City of Salina has four (4) Low -to -Moderate Income (LMI) census tracts (tracts f, 2, 3 and 5) in which at least 50 percent of households have an income less than 60 percent of the Area Median Gross Income (AMGI), or has a poverty rate of at least 25 percent. [City-wide Right-of-way (ROW) and Parks Tree Pruning -Storm Damage Mitigation Proposal) [10/10122) 3. Does the project Incorporate nature -based solutions? Yes, the City of Salina intends to use the natural pruning method to prune all City ROW and Parks trees, which makes use of the branch collar to identify the proper location to remove a branch and removes branches in order to preserve the bark tissue and branch collar. Additionally, City arborists will: • Only prune ROW trees within residential areas on public streets and alleys (front yards and side yards of corner or irregularly shaped lots of private residences). No pruning shall occur on private streets. • Prune all ROW trees to a height of fifteen feet (15) on the vehicular side of any tree as measured directly above the base of the curb (at the gutter or street level) and extending over the roadway. • Ensure all ROW and Parks trees are pruned, as appropriate, to maintain a smooth and aesthetically pleasing shape to avoid an abrupt or notched appearance. • Contact the City Manager's designee when crown thinning or crown raising may be required on a given tree, or section of trees, in order to maintain appropriate structure and form typical of the species of tree being pruned. No heading or shearing cuts shall be made and no more than one-fourth (1/4) of the foliage shall be removed from an individual tree without authorization from the City Manager's designee. • Remove all dead, dying, diseased, interfering, objectionable and weak branches of one inch (1') diameter at the branch collar or larger, extending over the roadway and within our Parks system. • Clean up and remove all tree limbs and other debris generated from pruning activities to leave work areas clean, safe and unobstructed at the completion of each day's work. • Perform all work by any industry accepted method, including the use of bucket trucks, climbers, chippers and grounds persons. Climbers shall not use spurs or gaffs in any tree to be pruned. • Be responsible for any and all damage to public or private property as the result of the pruning operations, and inform the City Manager's designee of any damage caused by the Contractor's operations on the day such damage occurs. • Comply with applicable safety standards in accordance with ANSI Z133 and coordinate directly with Evergy, as required, for all matters related to tree pruning near high-voltage transmission or distribution lines. • Complete all work to the satisfaction of and direct any questions or concerns as to the proper procedures for quality of workmanship to the City Manager's designee. • Maintain all tree canopies within the City of Salina Parks system using the methods described in this LOi. 4. Does the jurisdiction where the project will behave current Building Codes? If so, what year? Yes, the City of Salina has the following codes in effect: a 2012 international Building Code (iBC) (/CC) a 2012 international Fire Code (iFC) (ICC) • 2012 International Energy Conservation Code (iECC) (ICC) • 2012 Uniform Plumbing Code (UPC) (IAPMO) 2012 Uniform Mechanical Code (UMC) (iAPMO) • 2011 National Electric Code (NEC) (NFPA 70) 2010 ADA Standards for Accessible Design [City-wide Right-of-way (ROW) and Parks Tree Pruning -.Storm Damage Mitigation Proposal] [10/10/22} 5. toes the project include a new priority to enhance climate resilience and adaptation? Yes, in addition to the value of trees in enhancing the aesthetics of our roadways and our community, a healthy tree canopy directly enhances the landscape resilience to climate change. Trees play an important role in Improving water quality and quantity, reducing soil erosion, and creating micro -climatic conditions. Trees add shade, protect homes from the elements, and add value in many ways. They uplift individual and community spirit and provide aesthetic beauty. They can generate a sense of community pride. They can add historical value, especially as trees age and survive turbulent times. They also have environmental value, helping everything from reducing air and noise pollution to modifying the local climate. The City of Salina wishes to transition from a maintenance program to a sustainable management of ROW and Parks trees that also promotes an active, healthy, and strengthened social resilience in our citizenry. Rather than relying on emergency services to reestablish critical road networks for emergency responders and citizens due to ROW or Parks tree damage following severe weather, City of Salina staff proposes a full-time arborist program in accordance with the International Society of Arboriculture (ISA) best management practices and ANSI A300 Pruning Standards (2017 or later) using the natural pruning system to manage our ROW and Parks trees. 6. Have there been any studies or technical assistance done in advance of the proposed mitigation project? Yes, this recommended joint department tree pruning endeavor was first presented to City Commissioners on November 22, 2021. Additionally, the City-wide tree pruning endeavor is a very important part of the 2022 Saline County Solid Waste Management Plan five year review. City-wide tree pruning is discussed in Chapter Six of the plan as one of twelve topics (in the form of Issue -Discussion - Recommendation) staff developed during its functional needs analysis as follows: Collection - Issue 4: City-wide ROW Tree Pruning Discussion: In the next ten (10) year planning cycle, it is anticipated that the City-wide right-of- way (ROW) tree canopy will require significant pruning to permit sanitation and other large commercial trucks to safely access all streets and alleys. Recommendation: Supplement two existing Park Technicians with two new Park Technician positions to be funded from Public Works (One full time employee will be transferred from an existing vacant Worker/Driver position and one full time employee will be transferred from an existing vacant Streets Laborer position). Purchase a new-boom1bucket truck, a new chipper/chipper box and additional tools, equipment and supplies from the Solid Waste Fund balance to safely and efficiently prune a0 trees City-wide on a five-year basis. This four -person crew would respond to inclement weather emergencies and split its duties between Public Works Sanitation/ROW and Parks & Forestry on a 60% - 40•A basis respectively. Public Works and Parks and Forestry staff members have spent a significant amount of time inspecting and removing tree and limb debris after severe storms that cause significant damage to the ROW and Parks tree canopy throughout the City. [City-wide Right-of-way (ROW) and Parks Tree Pruning—Storm Damage Mitigation Proposall poito/22) Further, both Departments have employees perform tree canopy maintenance to address dead or dying bees, damaged limbs overhanging streets or alleys and in our Parks system, and overgrown trees with sight triangles of roadways as time and personnel staffing permit. However, neither department is sufficiently staffed or equipped to enable a full-time arborist program as described in this LOI. It is the goal of this program to have a highly trained arborist staff, managed by the Deputy Parks and Recreation Director, a certified and ISA board-certified Master Arborist, to focus year-round on a priorities -based, mitigation program within five designated zones to property manage the City's tree canopy at appropriate heights for trucks, heavy equipment, and other large motor vehicles. Further, this program is expected to improve the aesthetics, public safety, and climate and social resilience of the Community by nurturing and preserving a vibrant, healthy bee canopy throughout the City of Salina. The Public Works and Parks and Forestry staff members also regulanl y assist the Police and Fire Departments to help ensure the roadways are cleared as quickly as possible for first responders when tree and limb damage occurs following severe weather events. Finally, City staff work closely with the Saline County Emergency Management Office and many other organizations and agencies as required to properly coordinate efforts during emergency response scenarios throughout the community. 7. What FEMA Community lifelines does the proposed project address? (Community Lifelines I FEMA.gov https.11www.fema.aov/emeryencv-mana-gerslpractitionerslilfelines ) Yes, the City-wide ROW and Parks Tree Pruning — Storm Mitigation Plan addresses the following FEMA Community Lifelines: Safety and Security - Law Enforcement/Security, Fire Service, Search and Rescue, Government Service, Community Safety e Specifically, this program seeks to maximize the communication and coordination m efforts with emergency response agencies to ensure our streets and alleys remain accessible for first responders performing life-saving operations during disasters and other times of crisis. Health and Medical - Medical Care, Public Health, Patient Movement, Medical Supply Chain, Fatality Management e The importance of maintaining a healthy tree canopy that is capable of withstanding severe weather events is highlighted as emergency responders need to have open access to all routes throughout the community to ensure appropriate medical care and patient movement to clinics and the Salina Regional Health Center (hospital) is possible. Energy - Power Grid, Fuel ®Qi1 a As severe weather events such as ice and windstorms impact a community, tree and limb damage knocking down power lines and damaging the power grid can a�a cause additional frustrations and in extreme cases directly harm the health and safety of motorists and residents. 10 [City-wide Right-of-way (ROW) and Parks Tree Pruning—Stone Damage Mitigation Proposal] [1Oil 0122) Communications - Infrastructure, Responder Communications, Alerts Wamings and Messages, Finance, 911 and Dispatch . Fallen trees and limbs can directly damage public infrastructure and private R property. It can require undue attention of dispatchers, emergency responders and various support agencies who may otherwise be able to focus greater attention on other pressing community needs, rather than concerns of maintaining safe and open lanes of travel. Tree and limb damage can be expensive for public and private organizations as well as Individuals and families. ✓ Transportation - Highway/RoadwaylMotor Vehicle, Mass Transit, Railway, UX Aviation, Maritime This lifeline is most directly impacted by Salina's City-wide Right-of-way (ROW and Parks Tree Pruning — Storm Damage Mitigation Proposal as fallen ROW and Parks frees and branches may block vital traffic throughout the community. a. How does the project provide mitigation? This plan helps reduce the risks for loss of life and property by minimizing the impact of fallen frees and limb debris during severe weather and natural disasters. It begins with the City of Salina's identification of natural disaster risks and vulnerabilities that are common in central Kansas. After identifying these risks, the plan seeks to implement long-term strategies for protecting Salina's citizens and property from similar events. This tree pruning and storm damage mitigation plan is key to breaking the cycle of recurring disaster damage and reconstruction resulting from excessive fallen trees and limbs during severe weather events. What hazard does the project address? This plan seeks to address dead, dying, diseased, interfering, objectionable and weak branches of one inch (I' diameter at the branch collar or larger, extending over the roadway and throughout the City of Salina's Park system. Falling trees, limbs and branches or those that have already fell can create numerous hazards: Reduced community aesthetics Increased negative environmental impacts impassible roadways Personal injuries Automobile and other vehicle accidents Delayed emergency response Damage to public infrastructure and private property Excessive time%ffort spent by dispatchers and emergency response workers and agencies a. Is it preparedness or maintenance? While the current tree and limb management processes within the City are maintenance -focused and often limited to emergency response, this plan seeks to develop an active, year-round program to proactively manage the community's tree canopy and mitigate the risks associated with dead, dying, diseased, interfering, objectionable and weak trees and branches. This plan is expected to provide increased preparedness during inclement weather events, storms and natural disasters. 11 [City-wide Right-of-way (ROW) and Parks Tree Pruning—Storm Damage Mitigation Proposall [10110122) 9. Has the proposal been developed using FEMA program eligibility guidance? (Hazard Midgadon Assistance Unified Guidance - https.lAvww.rema.aov/granis/mitioation/hazard-mitioation- assistance-guidance ) At a minimum, this proposal indirectly supports stabilization and restoration (trees acting as wind breaks/buffers and soil stabilizers) as well as utilityAnfrastructure protection (reduced damage to powerfines, traffic signals, and other critical public infrastructure and private property). 10. is the proposed project consistent with the mitigation objectives of the approved local plan? Yes, the City-wide ROW and Parks Tree Pruning — Storm Damage Mitigation Proposal directly supports the City of Salina's Parks and Recreation, Sanitation, Solid Waste, Streets, and Traffic Control operational plans and procedures, the Saline County Emergency Management office, and the City of Salina's Comprehensive Plan. Additionally, the proposal is consistent with the City of Salina's strategic goals for our community, which are: • Goal #1: Infrastructure —Salina has an ongoing commitment to maintain the community's physical assets through evaluating, planning, budgeting, and maintaining existing and new infrastructure. • Goal #2: Quality of Life —Salina is a community that provides cultural and recreational opportunities that enrich the lives of all. Goal #3: Municipal Organization —Salina ensures high-quality services are provided in the most efficient and effective manner, while taking into consideration the goals and priorities of the governing body. • Goal #4: Economic Development —Salina has an economic development program that relies on partnerships that results in a community with a diversified economy. • Goal #5: Finances —Salina has short and long-term financial plans, based upon well-informed financial priorities, consistent with our strategic planning and governing body direction and provides financial stability and resiliency. 12 [City-wide Right-of-way (ROW) and Parks Tree Pruning—Storm Damage Mitigation Proposal] [10/10/22) c The Future Concept Map represents a defined vision with regard to the future physical growth and development. 11. What are the Project specifics, for example, If the project Is: a. An excavation or drainage ditch — how deep is it? b. An elevation — how high is it? c.

However, upon recommendation of the City's Forester, it is recommended that we trim all trees within a zone to a minimum height of 15 feet; given typical tree regrowth rates and the five-year timeframe anticipated for completing all five zones in order of priority while still addressing emergency occurrences expected throughout the community in non-active zones throughout the year. street Public Safety and Private Improvements In the Public Right -of -Way and Vision Triangle at Intersections Salina City Code currently stipulates individual property owners are responsible for maintaining trees abutting public streets. Once implemented, this proposal would eliminate the financial and physical burdens for individual residential property owners of pruning street trees (street side) by providing City staff with the necessary tools and equipment to maintain the trees with regard to the overhang of the tree canopy above public streets with the goal of providing an ongoing risk mitigation program. Property owners would remain responsible for all other aspects of tree maintenance (i.e. above sidewalks on private properly). It should be noted; however, property owners may further benefit from this proposal, as City staff would be required to ensure all ROW trees are pruned, as appropriate, to maintain a smooth and aesthetically pleasing shape to avoid an abrupt or notched appearance in accordance with the standards outlined in this proposal. 27 [City-wide Right-of-way (ROW) and Parks Tree Pruning—Storm Damage Mitigation Proposall pono/22} 12. Does the project involve environmental issues such as site remediation, hazardous materials, etc.? Have the appropriate agencies been consulted? There are no environmental issues that would impact the tree pruning operation aside from City staff incorporating the following site procedures: • Clean up and remove all tree limbs and other debris generated from pruning activities to leave work areas clean, safe and unobstructed at the completion of each day's work. • Comply with applicable safety standards in accordance with ANSI Z133 and coordinate directly with Evergy, as required, for all matters related to tree pruning near high-voltage transmission or distribution lines. 13.Are there any historic site concerns connected with the project? No, there are no historic site concerns. 14. If the project involves "private property", how is the public served and what are the public benefits? As previously mentioned, this proposal would provide numerous benefits, including: • improved community aesthetics • Decreased risk of negative environmental impacts • Reduced times to enable passable roadways following severe weather • Reduced risk of personal injuries • Reduced risk of automobile and other vehicle accidents • Reduced risk of emergency response delays due to fallen trees and limbs • Reduced risk of damage to public infrastructure and private property • Reduced time%ffort spent by dispatchers and emergency response workers and agencies 15. Regarding funding: a. How will the 25% cost share of the project be paid for? The City of Salina will adhere to its purchasing policy, acquire competitive bids and pay the full cost of the capital purchases using available funds and request 75 percent reimbursement after providing the appropriate cost information to the Kansas Division of Emergency Management for all vehicles, tools and equipment purchased outlined in this proposal. It should be noted the soonest the truck is likely to be provided will be 2024 according to the manufacturer. b. Have other sources of funding been identified? No c. Was application made for funding from another source? No d. What is the status of any pending request? WA e. Has a benefit to cost analysis been completed? The Parks Department previously calculated cost estimates for private contractors to complete tree pruning for the entire City RO W at approximately $500, 000 to $750, 000 for a single pass using the same standards as described in this proposal. The total cost for the capital purchase of a vehicle, tools, and equipment to perform the tasks outlined in this proposal is expected to be $220,497.00. This vehicle and equipment is expected to have a life expectancy of ten years (or more).

Is applicant a participant in National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP)? Yes b. Is the applicant participating in Community Ration System (CRS)? No c. Does the project involve Severe Repetitive Loss (SRL) properties? No How many? N/A d. Does the project involve Repetitive Loss properties? No If So, How many? WA 17. Regarding maintenance: a. Could the problem have been resolved through maintenance? No, the Public Works and Parks Departments currently perform routine maintenance of the tree canopy maintenance throughout the community. As previously mentioned, Public Works and Packs and Forestry staff members have spent a significant amount of time inspecting and removing tree and limb debris after severe storms that cause significant damage to the ROW and Parks tree canopy throughout the City. Additionally both Departments have employees perform tree canopy maintenance to address dead or dying trees, damaged limbs overhanging streets or alleys and in our Parks system, and overgrown trees with sight triangles of roadways as time and personnel staffing permit. However, neither department is sufficiently staffed or equipped to enable a full-time arbor/st program as described in this LOL b. Was the project maintained and is now in Working order and if so, then how will risks be reduced with the proposed project? It is the goal of this program to have a highly trained arborist staff, managed by the Deputy Parks and Recreation Director, a certified and ISA board-certified Master Arborist, to focus year-round on a priorities -based, mitigation program within five designated zones to properly manage the City's tree canopy at appropriate heights for trucks, heavy equipment and other large motor vehicles. Further, this program is expected to improve the aesthetics, public safety, and climate and social resilience of the Community by nurturing and preserving a vibrant, healthy tree canopy throughout the City of Salina. 18. How is the project unique? Describe what makes it stand out from others. This program seeks to provide greater inter -agency collaboration during storms and natural disasters by providing an ongoing, year-round mitigation program that will enable key staff members from Parks and Public Works to reduce hazards that frequently dominate relief efforts in this community. This proposal affects all citizens of the community and would provide improved public infrastructure and private property by reducing storm damage to the City's tree canopy. 19.What Is the proposed total cost of the project? a.
