Atascadero City Council
Staff Report – City Manager’s Office
Public Relations and Marketing Services
For Tourism Business Improvement District (TBID)
RECOMMENDATION:
The Atascadero Tourism Business Improvement District (TBID) Advisory Board
recommends:
Council authorize the City Manager to execute a contract with Verdin for TBID Public
Relations and Marketing Services with a not to exceed cap of $75,000.
DISCUSSION:
In 2013, the lodging businesses in Atascadero requested the establishment of the
“Atascadero Tourism Business Improvement District” (ATBID) in order to levy annual
assessments under the Parking and Business Improvement Area Law of 1989. The
activities to be funded by the proposed levy of assessments against Lodging
Businesses within the ATBID were tourism promotions and marketing programs to
promote the City as a tourism destination. The ATBID assessment would be equal to
two percent (2%) of the rent charged by the Business per occupied room or space per
night for all transient occupancies in lodging businesses. The City Council agreed, and
adopted Ordinance No. 568, establishing the Atascadero TBID. The new assessments
began June 1, 2013.
The 2% additional assessment is placed in the TBID fund, created by the Council for
this purpose. These funds are to be used by the TBID Advisory Board for :
“…tourism promotions and marketing programs to promote the City as a tourism
destination and such other tourism related projects, programs, and activities that
are directed at increasing transient stays at Lodging Businesses in the ATBID
and for such other tourism, branding and marketing purposes as the City and the
ATBID Advisory Board may determine.”
ITEM NUMBER: A-6
DATE: 03/10/15
A budget for the TBID fund is developed and approved by the TBID Advisory board and
then is included as part of the City budget for Council approval.
In 2014, the TBID Advisory Board directed City Staff to distribute a Request for
Proposals (RFP) for Public Relations and Marketing Services. Four Marketing firms
responded. The Board directed City staff to create an interview panel for the proposal
responses. City staff created a five-member panel who, on September 10, 2014,
interviewed the four firms that had responded to the RFP. The panel assessed each
firm using a rating sheet that listed the five evaluation criteria from the RFP:
1. Understanding of the nature of services by Atascadero’s TBID Advisory Board.
2. Strategic depth and overall creativity of proposal.
3. Responsiveness to all elements outlined in the request for proposal.
4. Outline of proposed fees for services and expenses within stated budget.
5. Experience and results in performing the services desired by Atascadero’s TBID
Advisory Board.
Each panelist could give a score under each category of no more than 20 points, with
the possibility of a perfect score being 100 points across the five categories. W ith five
panel members rating the presentations, a possible perfect score would be 500. There
were two firms that scored very high and close to each other, at 461 and 464. The
other firms were in the 300’s and 200’s.
Staff felt that since the two firms rated very high, the TBID Board should have the
opportunity to see their presentations and ask the firms questions before deciding which
firm to recommend to the City Council. The TBID Board met with the two firms twice in
October of 2014; and at their October 22, 2014 meeting, the TBID Advisory Board
selected Mental Marketing as their choice to recommend to the City Council for TBID
Public Relations & Marketing Services.
City staff brought the TBID Board’s recommendation to the City Council at their January
13, 2015 meeting. The City Council referred the item back to the TBID Board, asked
them to attend the Council’s Strategic Planning Session in February 2015, and re -
evaluate their Marketing needs. The City Council and the TBID Board held a Special
Joint Meeting on February 6, 2015 , where they discussed their responsibilities and
roles. There was Council and TBID Board consensus on the following:
1. TBID Mission Statement, with the removal of the word “Brand.”
2. TBID Board to come back to the City Council on March 10th regarding the TBID
Marketing contract.
The TBID Board discussed their Marketing needs at their meeting on February 25,
2015. The TBID Board decided to recommend that the City Council authorize the
execution of a contract with Verdin for TBID Public Relations and Marketing Services.
Verdin would provide marketing, advertising, and public relations services as directed
by the TBID. The contract is initially for a one year period, but may be renewed for four
additional one year periods with mutual approval of Verdin and the TBID board. In
ITEM NUMBER: A-6
DATE: 03/10/15
accordance with the purchasing policy, the contract would be placed back out for
RFP/RFQ no later than completion of the fifth year of the contract.
FISCAL IMPACT:
$75,000.00 from the TBID budget for Public Relations and Marketing Services.
ALTERNATIVES:
1. The City Council may choose to not hire Verdin and to refer this issue back to the
TBID Board with direction.

DISCUSSION:
Background: The 2015 CDBG award process began in the fall of 2014. The first of two
workshops was held throughout the County to solicit public comment on community
needs. The County published a request for CDBG proposals and the City received 5
applications. Total 2015 final funding amounts have been determined by Department of
Housing and Community Development (HUD) resulting in the City of Atascadero
receiving $154,125.
ITEM NUMBER: B-1
DATE: 03/10/15
CDBG funds are available for community development activities, which meet at least
one of the three national objectives:
1. A benefit to low and moderate-income persons;
2. Aid in the prevention or elimination of blight;
3. Address urgent needs that pose a serious and im mediate threat to the health or
welfare of the community.
In order for a program to qualify under the low and moderate income objective, at least
51% of the persons benefiting from the project or program must earn no more than 80%
of the area median. Additionally, at least 70% of the CDBG funds must be spent toward
this objective.
Beginning this year for the 2015 Grant Year Funding, there are two important chang es
to the CDBG grant that will likely affect the programming of funds:
1. Required County Program Administration
HUD now recommends that the County provide monitoring and oversight
for all CDBG grants. The County will receive 13% ($20,036) of the total
grant funds for this administration. The maximum budget for
administration is 20% of the 2015 Allocation. Since 13% will now be
directed to the County, the City’s maximum administrative reimbursement
cannot exceed 7% ($10,789) of the 2015 Allocation.
2. Minimum Funding Threshold of $8,000 for Public Service Activities, Countywide
Due to recent changes in program oversight, HUD is requiring a higher
level of monitoring of all grant activities. These new regulations will
require significantly more administrative staff time for each awarded
activity than previously required. Due to the stringent monitoring and
oversight requirements mandated by HUD, CDBG awards must now meet
a minimum threshold of $8,000 for public service activities on a County-
wide cumulative basis.
This threshold minimum means that the City of Atascadero can only program less than
$8,000 for a particular public service activity if another agency in the County commits to
programming the remainder to equal a Countywide cumulative total of at least $8,000.
It is anticipated that the City of Paso Robles will award funding to ECHO at the March 3,
2015 Paso Robles City Council meeting.
On December 9, 2014, after reviewing the applications, Council approved the draft
funding recommendations for the 2015 cycle. The recommendations were then
published for the required minimum of 30 days during which the second of the two
Workshops was held. At that Workshop County and City staff were available to discuss
the recommendations and answer any questions regarding the CDBG program.
Recently, the final 2015 CDBG allocations have been determined resulting in an
increase for the City of Atascadero of $22,411 over the original estimated CDBG
allocation of $131,714. This increased funding provides an additional $3,362 in funding
that can be used for Public Services. The City of Atascadero Youth Activity Scholarship
ITEM NUMBER: B-1
DATE: 03/10/15
Program and the Atascadero Loaves and Fishes Program received a recommendation
of full funding of their application amoun ts, $8,000 each. Staff is therefore
recommending that the additional public service funds of be allocated to ECHO.
Upon approval, the funding recommendations will be forwarded to the County for
submittal to and approval by the County Board of Supervisors and inclusion in the
countywide Consolidated Plan.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The 2015 allocation is estimated to be $154,125.
ALTERNATIVES:
Council may modify the grant recommendations prior to approval. However, awards
must meet program requirements; a minimum award of $8,000 for public service

Staff Report – Community Development
Zoo Master Plan Amendment – Thelma Vetter Red Panda Exhibit
RECOMMENDATIONS:
The Parks and Recreation Commission recommends:
1. Council approve Draft Resolution A, a proposed amendment to the Charles
Paddock Zoo (Zoo Park) Master Plan to allow for construction of a new Red
Panda Exhibit; and,
2. Council authorize the City Manager to enter into a Memorandum of
Understanding (MOU) with the trustee of the estate of the late Thelma Vetter for
the construction of the Thelma Vetter Red Panda Exhibit.
DISCUSSION:
Background: The City Council approved the Zoo Master Plan in 2004. This Master
Plan provides direction and guidance for plans to transform the Zoo into a key
destination point for residents and visitors. The Master Plan, similar to the City’s
General Plan or Downtown Vision Plan, is to be completed in various phases as funding
becomes available, versus completion all at once. Initial Master Plan projects included
the following:
Completion of a revamped Zoo entry;
A permanent, ADA compliant restroom facility;
A new gift-shop area / food service area
City Council updated their goals as part of Strategic Planning for the 2013-2015 Fiscal
Year, and re-affirmed those goals for the 2015-2017 Fiscal Year. Their goals include to
promote the Atascadero Lake Park, Pavilion, Veteran’s Memorial and Zoo as an event
center. As part of achieving this goal, the City has pursued upgrades and
enhancements to the Zoo in order to maintain its accreditation including projects such
as:
Zoo electrical upgrade project – In progress, and is necessary for the Red Panda
Exhibit
New Flamingo Exhibit – Completed
ITEM NUMBER: C-1
DATE: 03/10/15
New Roof on Lemur Holding Area – Completed
Madagascar Radiated Tortoise Exhibit – In progress
Major rehabilitation of Aviary – In progress
New Toucan Exhibit – In progress
Additionally, many maintenance projects were completed this past year:
Repair of Lemur exhibit
Installation of new fencing
Removal of old stone bench & installation of new planter
Removal of old, diseased trees, removal of alligator pond
Installation of permanent electrical systems
Installation of DG surfaces
Installation of pond pumps
Repair of several pavement areas
Removal of old plants & irrigation
Construction of a new Burrowing Owl exhibit
Repair & replacement of flooring in the Turtle building
These upgrades were necessary to help keep the Zoo accreditation through 2015, as
well as upgrade the facility to be more inviting for visitors. City Staff and Zoo supporters
understand the need for upgrading facilities for existing and future animals at the Zoo.
One of the Zoo’s many supporters, the late Thelma Vetter , graciously donated funds for
the design and construction of a new Red Panda exhibit.
Red Pandas are raccoon-sized animals native to the southern foothills of the Himalayan
Mountains. While red pandas are not related to the giant panda, which are members of
the bear family, they do have several things in common such as an appetite for bamboo
and small thumb-like digits on their front paws that allow them to hold bamboo shoots
while they eat.
This new Red Panda exhibit would create the following:
1. A new exhibit for the Red Pandas that is larger than the current one.
2. A habitat area that re-creates the animal’s natural habitat.
3. A multi-species exhibit that allows the Zoo to display several different species
from the same geographic area in one comprehensive exhibit.
4. Three (3) new viewing areas designed to increase visitor understanding and to
educate visitors on the animals and their habitat.
5. A high quality exhibit that further strengthens the goals of creating an “event
center” at the Zoo, consistent with the City Co uncil’s 2013-2015 & 2015-2017
strategic planning goals.
The trustee of the donor’s estate has contracted with a local architecture firm to create a
preliminary design of the proposed exhibit. The trustee met with City Staff and
presented the preliminary design concept. Staff discussed issues such as timing of
construction document preparation, construction coordination, and entering into a
ITEM NUMBER: C-1
DATE: 03/10/15
memorandum of understanding (MOU) to construct the proposed new exhibit. On
February 5, 2015, the Parks and Recreation Commission held a public hearing
regarding this item and voted 7-0 to recommend proposed modifications to the Zoo
Master Plan and that the City Council enter into an MOU with the estate of the late
Thelma Vetter for construction of the proposed exhibit.
Analysis:
Zoo Master Plan Revisions
Currently the Red Pandas are located near the middle of the zoo. The approved zoo
master plan shows a slightly different location for the Red Pandas as compared to
where they are shown in the current zoo layout.

The proposed new exhibit would be located at the current Picnic Area. This area will be
relocated just outside of the current flamingo exhibit in the existing volleyball area. This
volleyball area will be transitioned into an event area to host birthday parties, after-hour
social events, education classes and seminars, and other zoo functions which will
further promote Council’s goal to create the Zoo as an event center .
The former home of the Red Panda exhibit, adjacent to the bat-eared fox exhibit, will be
reconfigured to accommodate additional animals once the new exhibit is completed.
The proposed Red-Panda Exhibit is in the location of the “Indo-Burma” area as shown
in the Zoo Master Plan. The proposed exhibit is consistent with the “hot-spot” thematic
layout that the Zoo Master Plan envisions for the Zoo. The proposed exhibit anticipates
a future connection to a new tiger exhibit that is shown in the Master Plan. This future
connection is shown in the proposed Red Panda Exhibit drawings. Staff is
recommending that the Master Plan be amended to reflect the change of the Red
Panda exhibit, as well as modifications that accommodated the new gift shop , entry,
and flamingo exhibits.
Red Panda Exhibit Concept
The focal point of the exhibit is a 900 +/- square foot (sf) habitat area. This habitat area
would mimic the Red Panda’s natural foraging area including trees such as bamboo,
shrubs, and other native plants from the Himalayan Mountains. To enhance the sounds
of the Panda’s natural habitat area, and provide an additional exhibit that matches the
theme of the new area, a proposed Asian Bird Aviary would also be constructed
between the ramps. The Bird Aviary would provide an additional exhibit that would draw
in and enhance the overall visitor experience. Three viewing platform s are proposed to
be constructed, with all ramps being ADA accessible.
ITEM NUMBER: C-1
DATE: 03/10/15
A new 910sf enclosure would also be constructed. This enclosure would provide
additional shelter for the Pandas and other species, as well as serve as an area for
treatment, care, and feeding of the animals. This enclosure is substantially larger than
its current enclosure and provides the animals with much needed space. The enclosure
also contains a low impact development (LID) feature to reduce storm water runoff in
the form of a green roof. This LID feature harnesses rainwater to provide a “green”
scene on the roof, while assisting in keeping the enclosure cool during the summer.
An entry feature consisting of a wood trellis structure would identify the exhibit to Zoo
patrons. The entry would include the name “Thelma Vetter Red Panda Exhibit” as
tribute to the late Thelma Vetter. The entry may also include a plaque that honors or
describes the donor’s gift and will provide a description of her association with the Zoo.
A signage package will be submitted for Staff approval at a later date.

View of Exhibit Entry Feature
Viewing Areas
Visitors will have the opportunity to observe the Pandas through three (3) viewing areas.
Each viewing platform is envisioned to provide a different experience when visiting the
Red Pandas. The Low Viewing Platform is not necessarily a “low” vantage point. This
Low Viewing Platform is proposed to be accessed from either an ADA ramp or a set of
stairs. The low viewing platform includes the following:
Consists of decorative wood decking;
Provides views of the habitat area, the green-roof of the proposed enclosure and
the Asian Bird Aviary;
Provides a connection to the high viewing platform.
The High Viewing Platform is raised in elevation when compared to the lower viewing
platform. This platform provides sweeping views of the exhibit . Features of the high
viewing platform include:
“Birds eye” view of the entire habitat area and the Panda enclosure ;
Decorative wood decking and shade structure;
Design schemes similar to structures found in the Himalayan region of East Asia,
consistent with the overall theme of the proposed exhibit, as well as the lower
viewing platform;
Provide a future bridge connection to the proposed future tiger exhibit as shown
in the Zoo Master Plan and Zoo Master Plan update.
The third viewing area is the viewing window. The viewing wind ow is accessed from a
landscaped concrete path that is separate from the high and low viewing platforms. The
viewing window provides the following:
ITEM NUMBER: C-1
DATE: 03/10/15
“On-the-ground” view of the habitat area through viewing “windows” that provide
a more intimate experience with the animals when they are in the habitat area;
ADA accessibility through the use of the concrete ramp;
Landscaped pathway leading to the viewing area.
Construction Time Frame and Funding
The trustee has already donated funds for the initial design scheme of the proposed
exhibit. The trustee anticipates that construction documents will be completed and
construction will begin upon execution of a memorandum of understanding (MOU) with
the City of Atascadero. The estate of Thelma Vetter will also take responsibility fo r
construction of the exhibit and anticipates construction to commence in spring after
building permit review and approval by City Staff. While a timetable has not been set for
the length of construction, Staff estimates approximately three (3) to six (6) months to
complete the project.
Summary: The proposed Red Panda Exhibit is generally consistent with Master Plan
and aligns with Council goals. The proposed exhibit will enhance the experience for
visitors of the Zoo. The exhibit not only provides the red pandas a new home, but will
provide a quality educational experience through multiple viewing areas. This new
exhibit is funded by the estate of the late Thelma Vetter, with no City funds to be utilize d
for the design and construction of the exhibit. The Parks and Recreation Commission
recommends that the City Council approve the Zoo Master Plan amendments and that
ITEM NUMBER: C-1
DATE: 03/10/15
City Council authorize the City Manager to enter into a MOU to allow for construction of
the proposed new exhibit.
FISCAL IMPACT:
It is expected that the exhibit will bring in additional visitors, revenues and future
donations to the Zoo. Like all exhibits, the exhibit will need ongoing maintenance and
repairs over time; however the exhibit is designed to maximize staff efficiency and
reduce long-term maintenance costs. Staff time will also be incurred during
construction for building permit review and inspections. The City will incur no costs for
drafting of preliminary design schematic, construction documents, and construction of
the exhibit. Funding for these portions of the exhibit is provided by the Estate of Thelma
Vetter.
ALTERNATIVES:
1. Council may include modifications to the project.
2. Council may determine that more information is needed on some aspect of the
project and may refer the item back to staff to develop the additional information.
The Council should clearly state the type of information that is required and move
to continue the item to a future date.
3. Council may deny implementation of the project.

Staff Report - Public Works Department
2014 Pavement Assessment Study
RECOMMENDATIONS:
Council:
1. Endorse the “Critical Point Management” methodology for the City’s
Pavement Management System and corresponding PCI break points for
arterial and collector/residential street classifications; and,
2. Authorize the Administrative Service Director to appropriate $20,300 of
General Fund Reserves to develop a Five-Year Capital Improvement Plan for
the City’s street system.
DISCUSSION:
Background: PEI has completed their scope of work for evaluating and updating the
City’s pavement management software system for the 139 miles of municipal ly
maintained roadways. The primary goals of this update were as follows:
1. Provide an accurate and complete inventory of the City’s pavements and their
condition;
2. Identify and quantify maintenance and rehabilitation needs and costs; and
3. Provide on-going training and assistance.
PEI’s work included visual inspection of all roadways, including measuring distress
types and random testing, which was entered into the City’s pavement management
software system (StreetSaver®). Field inspections were completed in June 2014 and
scenarios finalized in January 2015.
Analysis – Current Conditions
The overall weighted Pavement Condition Index (PCI) is 47 on a 100 point scale, which
corresponds to “poor” to “fair” existing pavement conditions. Earlier last year, the
estimated weighted PCI was reported as 55. This 8-point difference is likely due to the
level of inspection performed rather than a sharp drop in actual pavement degradation.
PEI’s inspections were detailed and consistent with industry standards. It is important
ITEM NUMBER: C-2
DATE: 03/10/15
to keep in mind that PCI numbers are relevant to one another and used as a planning
tool for prioritizing where monies are best spent.
The breakdown by functional road classification is summarized in the following table:
Street Classification
Centerline
Miles
Area
(Square Feet)
Percent of
System
Average
PCI
Arterial 31.97 5,864,600 31.5% 58
Collector 21.62 2,793,731 15.0% 46
Residential 85.57 9,968,764 53.5% 41
Total 139.16 18,627,095 100.0% 47
The following chart and table shows the PCI distribution in the street system:
Condition PCI Range Percent of System
Excellent – Very Good 100 - 90 7.89%
Good 79 - 70 9.47%
Fair 69 - 50 28.24%
Poor 49 - 25 38.76%
Failed 25 – 0 15.65%
ITEM NUMBER: C-2
DATE: 03/10/15
Analysis – Prioritizing Projects
The following illustration identifies where the City’s current PCI is on the typical
pavement life curve.
There are three common strategies in pavement management and project prioritization:
1. “Best First” – focuses on keeping best conditioned streets in good condition;
2. “Worst First” – focuses on improving the worst conditioned street; and
3. “Critical Point” – focuses on preventing streets from dropping into PCI ranges
that trigger more expensive maintenance and improvements.
There are economical, safety, and social/political considerations in each of the
strategies. The first two strategies are short-sighted and will allow roadways to degrade
and slip into a more costly PCI range for needed improvements. T he critical point
strategy in a long-range methodology that maintains and improves roadways before
they slip into a more costly PCI range. Roadways are then treated with a corresponding
maintenance or rehabilitation treatment before degrading into a more expensive
treatment.
A key provision in critical point management is to define the PCI values that separate
the categories used to select the type of maintenance and rehabilitation. A separate set
of break points were used for arterial and local (collector/residential) classifications
based upon traffic volumes, truck loading, and disruptions to the most properties and
public. The following table summarizes the break points developed into the pavement
management system:
ITEM NUMBER: C-2
DATE: 03/10/15
Class Treatment
Treatment
Cost (Area)
Break Points (PCI)
Arterial Collector/Residential
I Light Maintenance $ 100 - 70 100 - 70
II Heavy Maintenance $ x 4 70 - 50 (non-load)* 70 - 30 (non-load)*
III Light Rehabilitation $ x 8 70 - 50 (load)* 70 - 30 (load)*
IV Heavy Rehabilitation $ x 16 50 - 25 30 - 10
V Reconstruction $ x 32 25 – 0 10 – 0
*distress type due to a load or non-load sources
Next Steps
The next step in the Pavement Management Program is to develop a list of projects
based upon the budget scenarios and management strategies in the StreetSaver®
program. The list will maximize the use of available funds to keep the overall roadway
system at the highest PCI possible. PEI will assist staff in analyzing the roadway
system and determining a more specific treatment to be employed. A proposed list and
anticipated funding will be will be incorporated into the upcoming Capital Improvement
Program and funds programmed into the next budget cycle.
Roadways are categorized as arterial, collector, and residential. In accordance with the
polling results, local roads including collector and residential roads are identified as
priority candidates for funding from the new sales tax revenue. While allowed, arterials
would be considered a secondary use of the sales tax proceeds at this time.
The pavement management strategies developed will provide the lowest life cycle costs
for the roadway system – which has a current replacement value of $263 million.
Applying the right treatment to the right pavement at the right time using the right
materials will maximize the system PCI rating while providing the lowest life cycle costs.
Further discussion and dialog will occur during the presentation by PEI at the meeting,
including current pavement conditions, management strategies, and the process to
implement the program.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The fiscal impact to develop a five year capital improvement program will be the
expenditure of $20,300 in general funds. Selection of the critical point management
methodology will provide for the lowest life cycle cost over time, saving the City funds in
the long run.

Atascadero City Council
Staff Report – Police Department
Concealed Carry Weapons Licensing
RECOMMENDATION:
Council receive and file information related to the Atascadero Police Department
Concealed Carry Weapons (CCW) licensing process.
DISCUSSION:
Background: The Atascadero Police Department currently does not issue CCW
licenses. California State Law allows for local municipal police agencies to enter into
agreements with the Sheriff of the county in which the agency is located to process
applications for CCW licenses and renewals. For over 15 years the San Luis Obispo
Sheriff’s Department has processed CCW license applications on behalf of the
Atascadero Police Department. Currently there are 54 residents of Atascadero who
have been issued CCW licenses by the San Luis Sheriff’s Department.
Recently the Federal Ninth Circuit Court issued a ruling on CCW licenses that resulted
in an influx of CCW applications to the San Luis Obispo Sheriff’s Department. As a
result of this increased workload, the Sheriff’s Department has decided to terminate the
prior agreement with the Atascadero Police Department to process CCW license
applications on the City’s behalf as of February 15, 2015. The Atascadero Police
Department will now be responsible for the processing of these applications.
Summary: Current state law and Atascadero Police Department Policy regulate the
issuance of CCW licenses, including the fees associated with their issuance. At a
minimum, applicants must:
Be of good moral character
Be a resident of the City of Atascadero
Show just cause
Complete a course of training (Firearms Course)
The firearm must be registered in California in the name of the CCW applicant
ITEM NUMBER: C-3
DATE: 03/10/15
In addition to these requirements, the applicant may also be required to undergo a
psychological screening. This requirement is optional, but is currently utilized by the
Paso Robles Police Department as part of their application process. The Atascadero
Police Department will also require this screening.
There are fees associated with the processing of CCW applications. These fees are
mandated and set by state law or current City of Atascadero Policy. The fees
associated with the processing of a standard two year CCW application are as follows:
$93 - Department of Justice Application Fee (Paid to DOJ through the
Atascadero Police Department)
$32 - Fingerprint Processing Fee (Current fee amount from City of Atascadero
Fee Schedule)
$100 - City of Atascadero Administrative Fee (20% due at the time of application
per Penal Code 26190)
$150 - Psychological Testing Fee (Paid directly to the appointed psychologist)
$100-400 – Training Course Fee (Paid directly to provider)
$25 – Renewal Fee
$10 – License Amendment Fee
The Atascadero Police Department has prepared an applicatio n packet for CCW
licenses which includes the Department of Justice Application form. Applicants will be
provided this instructional packet upon request. Applications will be reviewed by staff
and final recommendations made through the office of the Chief of Police. The Chief of
Police will have the final authorization on each license application.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The overall fiscal impact will depend on the number of applications received. The City of
Atascadero will receive a $100 administrative fee per issued license to help offset the
staff costs. There will also be unrecovered manpower costs associated with the
processing of application paperwork.
ALTERNATIVES:
1. Council may give direction to the Chief of Police to not require psychological
screening as part of the Concealed Carry Weapons permitting process for the
City of Atascadero.

FOR LICENSE TO CARRY A CONCEALED WEAPON
Authority
California Penal Code sections 26150 and 26155 provide that a sheriff of a county or the chief or other head of a municipal
police department of any city or city and county may issue a license to carry a pistol, revolver, or other firearm capable of
being concealed upon the person (CCW license). Penal Code section 26175 requires the Attorney General to prescribe a
statewide standard application form for a CCW license.
Who May be Issued a License
The licensing authority specified in Penal Code sections 26150 and 26155 (a sheriff or the chief or other head of a municipal
police department) may issue a license to persons who are of good moral character, who have completed a course of
training, and where good cause exists for issuance of the CCW license. All applicants for a CCW license will be fingerprinted
and state and federal records will be checked to determine if they are eligible to possess firearms. The attachment to this
application list all categories that would prohibit a person from possessing firearms and being granted a CCW license. These
attachments are updated annually to reflect new legislation and other changes in the law.
Format of CCW License
A CCW license may be issued in either of the following formats:
1. A license to carry concealed a pistol, revolver, or other firearm capable of being concealed upon the person.
2. Where the population of the county is less than 200,000 persons according to the most recent federal decennial
census, a license to carry loaded and exposed in the county a pistol, revolver, or other firearm capable of being
concealed upon the person.
Training Required
Penal Code sections 26150 and 26155 specify that new license applicants must complete a course of training. The training
may consist of any course acceptable to the licensing authority. The licensing authority may require either a course not to
exceed 16 hours which includes instruction on at least firearms safety and the law regarding the permissible use of a firearm,
or a community college course not to exceed 24 hours certified by the Commission on Peace Officer Standards and Training.
If the licensing authority requires the community college course, it must be uniformly required for all CCW license applicants.
The licensing authority may also require annual qualification on the weapon(s) during the term for which the CCW license is
granted.
For license renewal applicants, the course of training may be any course acceptable to the licensing authority, shall be no
less than four hours in length, and shall include instruction on firearm safety and the law regarding permissible use of a
firearm.
Psychological Testing
In addition to licensing requirements as specified by the licensing authority, jurisdictions may require psychological testing on
the initial application. If required, the applicant shall be referred to a licensed psychologist used by the licensing authority for
the psychological testing of its own employees. Any fees charged will be the responsibility of the applicant and such fees
shall not exceed $150.00 for an initial test. Additional psychological testing of an applicant seeking license renewal shall be
required only if there is compelling evidence to indicate that a test is necessary. (Pen. Code, § 26190, subd. (f).)

Section 4 - CCW License Conditions and Restrictions
The licensee is responsible for all liability for, injury to, or death of any person, or damage to any property which may result
through any act or omission of either the licensee or the agency that issued the license. In the event any claim, suit, or action
is brought against the agency that issued the license, its chief officer or any of its employees, by reason of, or in connection
with any such act or omission, the licensee shall defend, indemnify, and hold harmless the agency that issued the license, its
chief officer or any of its employees from such claim, suit, or action.
The licensee authorizes the licensing agency to investigate, as they deem necessary, the licensee's record and character to
ascertain any and all information which may concern his/her qualifications and justification to be issued a license to carry a
concealed weapon and release said agency of any and all liability arising out of such investigation.
While exercising the privileges granted to the licensee under the terms of this license, the licensee shall not, when carrying a
concealed weapon:
• Consume any alcoholic beverage.
• Be in a place having a primary purpose of dispensing alcoholic beverages for on-site consumption.
• Be under the influence of any medication or drug, whether prescribed or not.
• Refuse to show the license or surrender the concealed weapon to any peace officer upon demand.
• Impede any peace officer in the performance of his/her duties.
• Present himself/herself as a peace officer to any person unless he/she is, in fact, a peace officer as defined by
California law.
• Unjustifiably display a concealed weapon.
• Carry a concealed weapon not listed on the permit.
• Carry a concealed weapon at times or circumstances other than those specified in the permit.
Title 49, section 46505 of the United States Code states that a license to carry a concealed weapon does not authorize a
person to carry a firearm, tear gas, or any dangerous weapon aboard commercial airlines. Further, a person must declare
that he/she is carrying such firearm, tear gas, or any dangerous weapon BEFORE entering the boarding area of an air
terminal where the security checks are made. Such violation can result in arrest by law enforcement.
Any violation of these restrictions or conditions may invalidate the CCW license and may void any further use of the license
until reinstated by the licensing authority. Any arrest for a felony or serious misdemeanor, including driving under the
influence of alcohol and/or drugs, is cause for invalidating the license.

Section 5 - Applicable California Penal Code Sections
The following Penal Code sections are of special importance to the holder of a CCW license regarding the use,
carrying, and storage of firearms:
Penal Code section 26180 - False Statement on Application Form
(a) Any person who files an application required by Section 26175 knowing that statements contained therein are false is
guilty of a misdemeanor.
(b) Any person who knowingly makes a false statement on the application regarding any of the following is guilty of a felony.
(1) The denial or revocation of a license, or the denial of an amendment to a license, issued pursuant to this article.
(2) A criminal conviction.
(3) A finding of not guilty by reason of insanity.
(4) The use of a controlled substance.
(5) A dishonorable discharge from military service.
(6) A commitment to a mental institution.
(7) A renunciation of United States citizenship.
Penal Code section 192 - Manslaughter
Manslaughter is the unlawful killing of a human being without malice.
(a) Voluntary - upon a sudden quarrel or heat of passion.
(b) Involuntary - in the commission of an unlawful act, not amounting to a felony; or in the commission of a lawful act which
might produce death, in an unlawful manner, or without due caution and circumspection. This subdivision shall not apply
to acts committed in the driving of a vehicle.
Penal Code section 197 - Justifiable Homicide; Any Person
Homicide is also justifiable when committed by any person in any of the following cases:
1. When resisting any attempt to murder any person, or to commit a felony, or to do some great bodily injury upon any
person; or,
2. When committed in defense of habitation, property, or person, against one who manifestly intends or endeavors, by
violence or surprise, to commit a felony, or against one who manifestly intends and endeavors, in a violent, riotous or
tumultuous manner, to enter the habitation of another for the purpose of offering violence to any person therein; or
3. When committed in the lawful defense of such person, or of a wife or husband, parent, child, master, mistress or
servant of such person, when there is reasonable ground to apprehend a design to commit a felony or to do some
great bodily injury, and imminent danger of such design being accomplished; but such person, or the person in
whose behalf the defense was made, if he was the assailant or engaged in mutual combat, must really and in good
faith have endeavored to decline any further struggle before the homicide was committed; or
4. When necessarily committed in attempting, by lawful ways and means, to apprehend any person for any felony
committed, or in lawfully suppressing any riot, or in lawfully keeping and preserving the peace.
Penal Code section 198 - Justifiable Homicide; Sufficiency of Fear
A bare fear of the commission of any of the offenses mentioned in subdivisions 2 and 3 of Section 197, to prevent which
homicide may be lawfully committed, is not sufficient to justify it. But the circumstances must be sufficient to excite the fears
of a reasonable person, and the party killing must have acted under the influence of such fears alone.
Penal Code section 199 - Justifiable and Excusable Homicide; Discharge of Defendant
The homicide appearing to be justifiable or excusable, the person indicted must, upon his trial, be fully acquitted and
discharged.
Penal Code section 25100 - Criminal Storage of Firearm
(a) Except as provided in Section 25105, a person commits the crime of "criminal storage of a firearm of the first degree" if
all of the following conditions are satisfied.
(1) The person keeps any loaded firearm within any premises that are under the person's custody or control.
(2) The person knows or reasonably should know that a child is likely to gain access to the firearm without the
