SUBJECT:Consideration to Adopt the 2025 Legislative Platform. (CITY)
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends the City Council adopt the attached 2025 Legislative Platform.
BACKGROUND:
Each year, there are a multitude of bills introduced in the State Legislature and U.S. Congress
that directly impact the operations of municipal government. Often, the City needs to take a
position on a particular piece of legislation that will have an impact on the City or local government
in general. City staff carefully monitors pending state and federal legislation and once a position
is adopted, staff works closely with the City Council to advocate on behalf of the City to members
of the State Legislature, the Governor’s office, members of Congress or various state and federal
agencies.
The 2025 Legislative Platform serves as an outline and reference guide for legislative positions
and objectives that shape the actions of both City Council and staff. It is the foundation of a
focused advocacy strategy with the primary objective of adopting official City positions on clearly
stated legislative issues at the start of the legislative session. It encourages collaboration with Cal
Cities and other local agencies in supporting the City’s diverse legislative interests. The City of
Rancho Cucamonga does not typically address matters that are not pertinent to local government
services or duties, such as socially divisive, partisan, or international affairs.
The Legislative Platform is adopted on an annual basis and directs the City’s Legislative Program
through the incorporation of key strategic actions that include the communication of legislative
positions on proposed Federal, State, and County legislation, measures, initiatives, and
governmental regulations, as well as the pursuit of Federal, State, and County funding for City
projects, services, and programs. The attached 2025 Legislative Platform builds upon this
foundation and has been updated to reflect issues that are anticipated to continue or emerge
throughout the upcoming legislative session. Issues that have been resolved or are no longer
relevant are typically removed.
The Legislative Platform is continually reviewed using the goals and objectives of the City Council,
a review of legislative priorities from Cal Cities and other regional agencies, research of current
law and pending legislation, as well as input from City departments, local legislative staff, and the
City’s legislative advocates.

ANALYSIS:
For the 2025 Legislative Platform, staff undertook a comprehensive update, carefully analyzing
positions for redundancy and relevance. Several positions were updated to streamline the
Platform while ensuring alignment with the City’s priorities. Additionally, new positions have been
included to reflect the City’s interests related to economic development, housing and land use,
public employment, and the protection of state and federal funding. Lastly, staff updated the list
of legislative representatives to reflect the new delegation representing the City at both the state
and federal levels.
FISCAL IMPACT:
None.
COUNCIL MISSION / VISION / VALUE(S) ADDRESSED:
The Legislative Advocacy Program addresses the core values of providing and nurturing a high
quality of life for all, promoting and enhancing a safe and healthy community for all, intentionally
embracing and anticipating our future, and the relentless pursuit of improvement, by advocating
for the City’s interests at the Federal and State level.

SUBJECT:Consideration to Receive and File the AB 1600 Development Impact Fee
Report for the Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 2024. (CITY)
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends the City Council receive and file the AB 1600 Development Impact Fee Report
for the Fiscal Year ended June 30, 2024
BACKGROUND:
California Government Code Sections 66000-66025 (the “Mitigation Fee Act”) sets forth the legal
requirements for enactment of a development impact fee program, the bulk of which was adopted
as 1987’s Assembly Bill (AB) 1600 and commonly referred to as “AB 1600 requirements”.
The AB 1600 requirements stipulate that fees imposed on new development have the proper
nexus to any project on which they are imposed. In addition, AB 1600 requires any local agency
that imposes development impact fees to prepare an annual report providing specific information
about those fees as defined in Government Code Sections 66006(b) and 66001(d). Each year,
the City prepares the Development Impact Fee Report to meet these requirements.
ANALYSIS:
California Government Code Section 66006(b) requires that, for each separate account or fund,
the City will report the following information for the fiscal year:
1. A brief description of the type of fee in the fund
2. The amount of the fee
3. The beginning and ending balance of the account or fund
4. The amount of the fees collected and interest earned
5. An identification of each public improvement on which fees were expended and the
amount of expenditures on each improvement.
6. Identification of an approximate date by which the construction of the public improvement
will commence if sufficient funds have been collected.
7. A description of each interfund transfer or loan made from the account or fund.
8. The amount of refunds made, or due to be made, from surplus fees. Or the amount of
refunds made from surplus fees.
The City Council should receive this report per AB 1600 requirements. After Council approval,
this report will be available for public review on the City’s website per Section 66006(b).

LEGAL REQUIREMENTS FOR DEVELOPMENT IMPACT FEE REPORTING
On June 4, 1980, the City Council approved the collection of fees for park and recreational expansion in
the City of Rancho Cucamonga to mitigate the impacts of future development (formerly RCMC 3.24). In
the following years, the City Council approved additional development impact fees for Transportation
(RCMC Chapter 3.28), Drainage Systems (RCMC Chapters 13.08 and 13.09), Community and Recreation
Center (RCMC Chapter 3.52), Library (RCMC Chapter 3.56), Animal Center (RCMC Chapter 3.60), Police
(RCMC Chapter 3.64), and Park In-Lieu/Park Impact (RCMC Chapter 3.68). Nexus procedures were
developed to establish the relationship between the proposed development and its impact on the City.
Pursuant to the Municipal Code, impact fees have been periodically updated since considering the initial
Development Impact Fee Resolutions by the City Council.
A. California Government Code Sections 66006(b) and 66001(d)
California Government Code Section 66006(b) defines the specific reporting requirements for local
agencies that impose AB 1600 DIFs on new development. Annually, for each separate fund established for
the collection and expenditure of DIFs, the local agency shall make available to the public the information
shown below for the most recent fiscal year.
1. A brief description of the type of fee in the fund
2. The amount of the fee
3. The beginning and ending balance of the account or fund
4. The amount of the fees collected and interest earned
5. An identification of each public improvement on which fees were expended and the amount of
expenditures on each improvement. (Development Impact Fee Capital Project Expenditure
Schedule located at end of report)
6. Identification of an approximate date by which the construction of the public improvement will
commence if sufficient funds have been collected
7. A description of each interfund transfer or loan made from the account or fund
8. The amount of refunds made due to made from surplus fees
C. ADDITIONAL NOTES
The State of California Government Code Section 66002 states that local agencies that have developed a
fee program may adopt a capital improvement plan indicating the approximate location, size, and timing
of projects, plus an estimate for the cost of all facilities or improvements to be financed by fees. The City's
Fiscal Year 2024/2025 Major Projects Program can be found on the City's website (www.cityofrc.us).

DESCRIPTION OF DEVELOPMENT IMPACT FEES
Fund 111 – Park Land Acquisition:
This fee intends to provide funding for the development and acquisition of parks. Due to the provisions of
the Quimby Act applying only to land acquisition and only in residential subdivisions, separate park impact
fees for park Land acquisition in non-subdivision projects and park improvements are necessary. The park
fees are calculated for a single service area encompassing the entire City.
Impact fees for this fund are calculated in accordance with Resolution No. 14-128 using the per capita
costs and average population per dwelling unit. The impact fee per dwelling unit varies depending on the
development type.

Fund 112 – Drainage Facilities:
The City of Rancho Cucamonga is affected by surface and storm waters. The continual subdivision and
development of property within the City has demanded existing facilities that handle surface and storm
waters. To provide an equitable manner for the apportionment of the cost of the development of such
facilities, the City Council determined that a drainage plan must be adopted and a drainage fee established
to provide funds to be used for the construction of the facilities described in the drainage plan.
Impact fees for this fund are calculated in accordance with Resolution No. 02-061 at a rate based on the
net acreage of the development as it relates to the benefit and impact area with the specific public
improvements to be financed.

Fund 113 – Community and Recreation Centers:

building construction/expansion, interior building improvements, furniture, fixtures and exercise
equipment, sports and play equipment, special needs equipment, technical centers, and aquatic facilities.
Impact fees for this fund are calculated in accordance with Resolution No. 14-128 using the per capita
costs for replacement costs and the existing population. The City's community and recreation centers
serve the entire City, so the Community and Recreation Center Impact Fees are calculated for a single
service area encompassing the whole City.

Fund 123 – Library:
The City has two existing libraries, the Archibald Library and the Paul A. Biane Library, part of the Victoria
Gardens Cultural Center. The Paul A. Biane Library includes space for future expansion, and the City will
assess the need for the Joint Use Facility at The Resort. To provide funds for library facilities and materials
needed to serve future development, the City Council determined that a development impact fee is
necessary for land acquisition and site improvements; building construction or expansion; interior building
improvements; furniture, fixtures, and equipment; library materials; theatre facilities; special needs
equipment and facilities; technical centers; and special activities facilities.
Impact fees for this fund are calculated in accordance with Resolution No. 14-128 using the per capita
costs for library facilities and materials and the average population per dwelling unit. The impact fee per
dwelling unit varies depending on the development type.

by new development and meet the circulation element's goals and objectives. The City Council has
determined that a development impact fee is needed to finance these public improvements and pay for
the development's fair share of the costs of these improvements.
Impact fees are calculated based on the equivalent dwelling unit based on the land use type adopted in
Resolution No. 20-005. The impact fee per equivalent dwelling unit varies depending on the development
type.

Fund 125 – Animal Center:
The City's existing Animal Center is at capacity, and additional space will be needed for the growing
demand imposed by future development. To meet that demand, the City Council has determined that a
development impact fee is necessary for land acquisition and site improvements; building construction
and expansion; interior building improvements; furniture, fixtures, and equipment; special needs
equipment and facilities; veterinarian equipment and facilities; transportation facilities; kennel facilities;
transportation facilities; and outdoor dog runs and play areas.
Impact fees for this fund are calculated in accordance with Resolution No. 14-128 using the per capita
costs for existing facilities and the average population per dwelling unit. The impact fee per dwelling unit

To implement the goals and objectives of the Public Health and Safety Element of the City of Rancho
Cucamonga's General Plan and mitigate the drainage impacts in the Lower Etiwanda Local Drainage Area
caused by new development, certain public drainage improvements must be or have to be constructed.
The City Council determined that a development impact fee is needed to finance these public
improvements and assess such fee for a development's share of the construction costs of these
improvements.

Fund 127 – Police:
The City's existing police facility is at capacity, and additional space is needed to serve the growing demand
imposed by future development. The impact fee for police facilities is based on the relationship between
the Police Department calls for service per year generated by existing development and the department's
facilities' replacement cost. The funds will provide land acquisition and improvements; building
construction; furniture, fixtures, equipment; technical centers, and transportation facilities for the City's
Police Department.
Impact fees for this fund are calculated in accordance with Resolution No. 14-128 using the average cost
per call for service and the calls per unit. The impact fee per dwelling unit varies depending on the

SUBJECT:Consideration of Amendment No. 05 to the Professional Services
Agreement (Contract No. 2020-028) with Granicus, LLC for Subscription
Services for an Agenda Meeting Management System and Live and On
Demand Video Streaming Services for an Additional Two (2) Years
Ending March 31, 2027, Increasing the Total Contract Amount by
$53,003.43. (CITY)
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended the City Council approve Amendment No. 05 to the Professional Services
Agreement (Contract No. 2020-028) with Granicus, LLC for Subscription Services for an Agenda
Meeting Management System and Live and On Demand Video Streaming Services for an
additional two (2) years ending March 31, 2027, increasing the total contract amount by
$53,003.43; and authorize the City Manager or their designee to execute contract amendments.
BACKGROUND:
In 2020, after a Request for Proposal process, the City entered into a three-year Professional
Services Agreement, Contract No. 2020-028, with PrimeGOV Solutions, LLC (now Granicus,
LLC) for Subscription Services for an Agenda Meeting Management System with the option to
renew in one-year increments to a total of two (2) years, for a total contract amount not to exceed
$110,000. The City amended the contract to continue services with Granicus, LLC for two (2)
additional one-year terms as well as expanding services to include Live and On Demand Video
Streaming Services in June 2022. The City’s contract with Granicus, LLC has been effective for
five years, and staff would like to continue services by renewing the current agreement for an
additional two (2) years ending March 31, 2027. The original contract is on file in the City Clerk
Services Department.
ANALYSIS:
Granicus, LLC continues to meet the service needs of the City as it offers OneMeeting (formerly
PrimeGov), a meeting management software solution for government organizations providing
comprehensive agenda management services including several automated features increasing
efficiencies in agenda and meeting preparation. OneMeeting provides consistent staff reports,
agendas, minutes templates, streamlines staff report workflows and approval process, and
provides staff and citizens immediate access to all City Council agendas, videos and related
documents. Renewing the current agreement for an additional two (2) years with Granicus, LLC
will allow the City stability to continue providing agenda management services.

budgets. Account number: F001|CC209|SC2107.
COUNCIL MISSION / VISION / VALUE(S) ADDRESSED:
This item supports the City Council’s Core Values of intentionally embracing and anticipating the
future by using an agenda management system to streamline functions in the City Clerk Services
Department; and the City Council’s Core Values of equitable prosperity for all as the agenda
management system allows City Council meeting information to be readily and equitably
accessible to the public.

FROM:John R. Gillison, City Manager
INITIATED BY:Michael Parmer, Engagement and Special Programs Director
SUBJECT:Consideration to Approve a Cooperative Agreement Between the City of
Rancho Cucamonga and the Los Angeles Department of Water and
Power for the Approved Wildfire Early Detection System Project; and
Authorization to Appropriate $661,232 for the FIREBird Wildfire
Detection Device System. (CITY)
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends the City Council approve a cooperative agreement between the City of Rancho
Cucamonga and the Los Angeles Department of Water and Power for the approved wildfire early
detection system project; and appropriate $661,232 for the FIREBird wildfire detection device
system.
BACKGROUND:
The northern boundary of the City consists of a wildland-urban interface between the residential
Alta Loma and Etiwanda neighborhoods and the foothills of the San Gabriel mountains, all located
in a Very High Fire Hazard Severity Zone. This area is particularly vulnerable to the risks of wildfire
due to the rugged terrain and high wind events caused by gusting Santa Ana winds, which can
cause wildfires to spread rapidly. In 2003, the Grand Prix Fire, part of the Grand Prix incident –
Padua – Old Wildfire complex, caused an estimated $1.3 billion in damages. The area also
experienced the 2014 Etiwanda Fire, the Thorpe Fire in 2020 that ignited a small fire near Almond
and Mai Streets, and, most recently the Bridge Fire which came perilously close to the City’s
western boundary.
In June 2022, Assemblymember Chris Holden (District 41) secured $1,900,000 in pass through
grant funding that was included in the adopted budget trailer bill – Senate Bill (SB) 178 (SEC.
19.56. (AO) (19)). The funds, administered through CalOES, are to be used to implement a wildlife
early detection system.
The proposed early wildfire detection system, FIREBird, is produced by Lindsey FireSense LLC,
of Azusa, CA. The FIREBird system is designed specifically to detect and report wildfires as small
as 5 x 5 feet, up to a detectable distance of 900 feet, typically in less than two minutes. Rapid
detection results in faster fire response and smaller fires to contain. The goal of the system is to
save significant resources, money, and most importantly, lives. The funding will install the
FIREBird camera units along the City’s northern border and provides funds for ongoing training,
maintenance, and implementation.

ANALYSIS:
Once funding was secured, the City approached Los Angeles Department of Water and Power
(LADWP) to collaborate on installing the FIREBird system devices at their electrical transmission
towers along the City’s northern boundary (the Victorville Century Line 2 (VIC-CEN L2)). The City
will purchase 20 devices from Lindsey FireSense and LADWP will install the devices on their
towers. This strategic placement of the wildfire early detection system aims to enhance fire safety,
improve emergency response times, and optimize resource management for effective wildfire
response and prevention for the benefit of City residents.
The Cooperative Agreement (Exhibit 1) includes the following key terms:
Term and Termination: Either party may terminate the Agreement for cause. Either party
may terminate the Agreement with a one year written notification. The term of the
agreement is for three years.
The City is the lead agency and will provide all FIREBird equipment.
LADWP will bear sole responsibility for the physical installation of the equipment on its
electrical towers.
The City will provide LADWP with access to the imagery and data collected from the
Devices.
California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Determination
It has been determined that approval of the Cooperative Agreement is categorically exempt from
CEQA pursuant to the Class 3 categorical exemption set forth in State CEQA Guidelines Section
15303 (New Construction or Conversion of Small Structures). The Class 3 categorical exemption
applies to (1) the construction and location of limited numbers of new, small facilities or structures
(including structures up to 2,500 square feet), and (2) the installation of small new equipment and
facilities in small structures.
FISCAL IMPACT:
In addition to the consideration of approval by Council of the Cooperative Agreement, staff
requests the City Council authorize the appropriation of $661,232 into account number F274
CC208 SC7000 (Grant: GR-000056 Wildfire Early Detection System) for the purchase of twenty
(20) FIREBird wildfire early detection camera systems, a 10% contingency, mounting brackets, a
6-year subscription to the Lindsey’s FIRESense web portal, 6-years of cellular data service, and
field and office engineering services and training.
COUNCIL MISSION / VISION / VALUE(S) ADDRESSED:
This item brings together portions of the Council’s vision and core value by providing a sustainable
City and promoting a safe and healthy community for all.

SUBJECT:Consideration of the Cooperative Purchase of One (1) John Deere
ProGator 2030A Diesel Utility Vehicle, One (1) John Deere TE Gator, and
One (1) Smithco Diesel Bunker Rake via the Sourcewell Contract Number
0112624-DAC from Stotz Equipment in the Amount of $102,847.84.
(CITY)
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends City Council approve the cooperative purchase of one (1) John Deere
ProGator 20230A Diesel Utility Vehicle, one (1) John Deere TE Gator, and one (1) Smithco Diesel
Bunker Rake via the Sourcewell Contract Number 0112624-DAC from Stotz Equipment for
$102,847.84 to be funded from the equipment/vehicle replacement fund.
BACKGROUND:
The Public Works Services Department (PWSD) Parks and Landscape Division maintains the
quality and conditions of the city’s landscapes, parks, and stadium. Ground maintenance
equipment is essential for maintaining efficient quality work throughout the city. After a
comprehensive review by PWSD staff, the selected John Deere ProGator 20230A Diesel Utility
Vehicle, John Deere TE Gator, and Smithco Diesel Bunker Rake are being recommended for
purchase. Funding for these three grounds maintenance equipment vehicles was included in the
Adopted FY 2024/25 Budget.
During equipment research, staff identified a Sourcewell contract with Stotz Equipment for the
procurement of grounds maintenance equipment. Sourcewell is a purchasing platform for public
agencies that pre-screens vendors and gives the member organizations a cooperative purchase
advantage. By procuring this equipment through an already competitively bid and awarded
Sourcewell contract, the City will reduce staff time to bid the purchase, resulting in higher
efficiency and cost savings.
ANALYSIS:
Sourcewell offers a cooperative purchasing model that streamlines the procurement process for
cities by eliminating the requirement for individual bidding and negotiation. Such collaboration
guarantees cities receive quality products through competitively bid Sourcewell contracts, which
not only saves time but also guarantees a discount for each unit.

If approved, PWSD will procure one (1) John Deere ProGator 20230A Diesel Utility Vehicle, one
(1) John Deere TE Gator, and One (1) Smithco Diesel Bunker Rake through Stotz Equipment to
enhance the grounds maintenance fleet for the Parks and Landscape Division.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The Adopted FY 2024/25 Budget included the replacement of grounds maintenance equipment
in the equipment/vehicle replacement fund, F712 CC001 7000 SC7002.

RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends City Council:
1. Approve the specifications for the Victoria Park Lane DG Renovation Project FY 24-25.
2. Accept the bid received for the Project.
3. Award and authorize the execution of a contract for the Victoria Park Lane DG Renovation
Project FY 24-25 to the lowest responsive bidder, Gentry General Engineering, Inc. of
Colton, California, in the amount of $207,882 (Base Bid).
4. Authorize an expenditure of a contingency of 5% in an amount of $10,394.10

the contingency amount of $10,394.10 for a total of $218,276.10.
BACKGROUND:
The Victoria Park Lane DG Renovation Project FY 24-25 will repair uneven and/or rutted
decomposed granite (DG) trail surfaces and concrete header curbs with lifts and/or gaps in the
public right-of-way and in City maintained landscapes. The locations requiring repair have been
identified by the City’s Trails Coordinator and/or citizen requests. Once Public Works Services
staff identifies a trail issue they will be addressed on a priority basis. A crew will backfill and mark
roots on trail surfaces with orange marking paint for repair. These locations are then scheduled
for permanent repairs as funds become available. In many cases, the damage to the trail and
header curbs was caused by tree roots. It is the City’s intention to protect and preserve the urban
forest whenever possible while still facilitating the necessary trail repairs.
This project includes, DG trail removal and grading, DG trail installation with fine grading and
compaction, concrete header curb removal, concrete header curb installation, surface
adjustments including but not limited to rock removal and root pruning or shaving.

RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends that the City Council award a three-year contract to Convergint for the
purchase of PSVN software renewal not to exceed the total amount of $82,720, including a 10%
contingency.
BACKGROUND:
There are currently 400+ cameras throughout the city, strategically placed at intersections, city
facilities, and critical infrastructure. These cameras are key assets used in partnership with the
Police Department in the interest of Public Safety. The Genetec Video Management System is
used to manage each camera, deploy updates, access recorded data, manage live feeds, and
manage authorized personnel access.
The Genetec software is at the core of the Real Time Information Center (RTIC) which is in
operation at the Police Department. The software is responsible for giving Crime Analyst live and
archived video coverage for incidents throughout the City of Rancho Cucamonga’s public
landscape.
ANALYSIS:
In February 2025, Request for Bid (RFB) #24/25-111 for software renewal for Genetec Advantage
was posted. There were six hundred eighty-nine (689) notified vendors, thirty-three (33)
prospective bidders, and five (5) bid responsive responses received. Convergint was the lowest
most responsive bidder and has complied with city requirements.
Genetec was chosen for the PSVN for its security, scalability, and integration. It unifies video
surveillance, access control, and analytics, ensuring situational awareness. Its open architecture
supports interoperability, reducing vendor lock-in and maximizing investment. Strong
cybersecurity safeguards data integrity and availability. Genetec delivers a reliable, efficient
solution for public safety. Based on an analysis of our current investment in PSVN and integration
with the RTIC staff recommends an approval with Genetec not to exceed $82,720.

Council on July 16, 2018, to ensure construction of the required public improvements.
ANALYSIS:
All public improvements required of this development have been completed to the satisfaction of
the City Engineer.
Prior to construction of the public improvements the developer, RC1, LLC, submitted the following
cash securities to ensure satisfactory completion of the improvements:
Faithful Performance Bond $ 81,600 Cash Deposit
Labor and Material Bond $ 81,600 Cash Deposit
City staff conducted a final inspection of the public improvements and confirmed all work was
completed to City standards. Typically, a separate maintenance bond in the amount of 10% of
the Faithful Performance Bond would be retained once work is completed, however in this case

the developer did not provide a maintenance bond to the City; therefore, staff recommends the
maintenance bond requirement be waived since the Faithful Performance Bond was retained for
the satisfactory period (one year from the final inspection). City staff has confirmed the
improvements have remained in good workmanship and free of defects.
FISCAL IMPACT:
None.
COUNCIL MISSION / VISION / VALUE(S) ADDRESSED:
This item addresses the City Council’s vision for the City by ensuring the maintenance of high-

TO:Mayor and Members of the City Council
FROM:John R. Gillison, City Manager
INITIATED BY:Erika Lewis-Huntley, Management Analyst III
SUBJECT:Consideration of First Reading of Ordinance No. 1037, to be Read by
Title Only and Waive Further Reading, Adding Chapter 9.38 to Title 9 of
the Rancho Cucamonga Municipal Code Concerning the Prohibition
Against Camping or Interference with the Use of Public Property
Including Public Access. (ORDINANCE NO. 1037) (CITY)
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends the City Council conduct first reading of Ordinance No. 1037 to be read by title
only and waive further reading, adding Chapter 9.38 to Title 9 of the Rancho Cucamonga
Municipal Code Concerning the Prohibition Against Camping or Interference with the Use of
Public Property Including Public Access.
BACKGROUND:
Addressing homelessness remains a complex challenge at the local, regional, and statewide
levels. In recent months, city residents and business owners have raised concerns about the use
of public and private spaces for the storage of personal belongings, camping, and the
establishment of encampments. These activities can create access issues, impact the shared use
of public spaces, and pose potential health and safety risks. The presence of encampments has
also been associated with an increase in certain public safety concerns, including property-related
offenses and environmental hazards. In response to these challenges, the City is exploring
strategies that balance the needs of the entire community while recognizing the broader systemic
factors contributing to homelessness. The attached proposed ordinance represents the City’s
efforts to address the use of public property by all, and seeks to balance the ability of the City to
lawfully manage public property under existing law with the fair treatment of individuals
experiencing homelessness.
ANALYSIS:
The proposed ordinance modifies the Rancho Cucamonga Municipal Code by adding Chapter
9.38 “Prohibition Against Camping or Interference with the Use of Public Property Including Public
Access,” which prohibits the following:
The storage of unattended personal property on public property.
A person from setting up a tent on public property.
A person from lodging in a public restroom.
Page 166
Page 2

A person from sleeping or laying down on a public bench, bus stop/shelter or adjacent
landscape planter.
A person from remaining upon a public plaza between the hours of 10 p.m. and 6 a.m. the
following morning (except that it would not be illegal to traverse the public plaza, without
stopping, during this time period).
A person from sleeping, lying, sitting or storing personal property in a manner that limits
access to automatic teller machines, electric vehicle charging stations, driveways, building
entrances, and public paths/trails.
A person from using public fountains or restroom sinks for activities such as washing
dishes, clothing, or conducting personal hygiene beyond basic handwashing.
The proposed ordinance also sets forth specific criteria for what constitutes camping to ensure
that the Municipal Code is consistent with the recent United States Supreme Court ruling in City
of Grants Pass, Oregon v. Johnson et al. (2024), which determined that the enforcement of
generally applicable laws regulating public camping does not constitute "cruel and unusual
punishment" under the Eighth Amendment. This decision overturned previous rulings from the
Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals, including Martin v. City of Boise (2018) and Johnson v. City of
Grants Pass (2023), reaffirming the City’s ability to regulate the use of public spaces within legal
parameters. Additionally, the ordinance aligns with Governor Newsom’s Executive Order issued
in July 2024, which provides guidance for local jurisdictions on addressing homeless
encampments and ensuring compliance with state and federal legal standards. By establishing
clear guidelines for the use of public property, the ordinance provides a regulatory framework and
additional enforcement mechanisms that the City can implement to ensure that public spaces
remain accessible and safe for all.
The City remains committed to addressing homelessness through a multifaceted and
compassionate approach. While the proposed ordinance is an important tool in ensuring the
safety and accessibility of shared spaces, it is only one aspect of the City’s broader efforts. The
City continues to invest in housing and supportive services and works closely with community
partners to pursue both interim and long-term solutions. Multiple City departments play a role in
supporting people experiencing homelessness, either directly or through partnerships with direct
service providers. The Rancho Cucamonga Police Department’s Solutions-Oriented Policing
(SOP) Team will continue conducting street outreach to assist individuals experiencing
homelessness by connecting them with available services and housing resources. Additionally,
the Community Outreach and Support Team (COAST), a multidisciplinary crisis response team
composed of the Rancho Cucamonga Fire District, Police Department, and San Bernardino
County Department of Behavioral Health, will begin to provide specialized support for individuals
experiencing homelessness and mental health challenges, ensuring they receive appropriate
care and intervention. Overall, the proposed ordinance seeks to balance public safety with the
fair and equitable treatment of all residents, reinforcing the City’s goal of enhancing the overall
quality of life for the entire community.

Kelly Guerra, Special Districts Analyst
SUBJECT:Conduct a Public Hearing to Consider Adoption of Resolutions Making
Determinations Regarding the Proposed Annexation of Territory
(Annexation 25-1) into an Existing Community Facilities District, Adoption
of Resolution Calling a Special Election, and Adoption of Resolution
Declaring Results of a Special Election in Community Facilities District
No. 85-1. (RESOLUTION NO. FD 2025-003 AND FD 2025-004) (FIRE)
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends that the Fire Board of the Rancho Cucamonga Fire Protection District:
1. Conduct a public hearing to receive protests, comments, and questions from the public on
Annexation 25-1.
2. Adopt the Resolution Calling for a Special Election and authorizing the submittal of the
levy of special taxes to the qualified electors.
3. Adopt the Resolution Declaring the Results of the election in Community Facilities District
85-1, Annexation 25-1 and ordering the annexation of such property into the CFD 85-1.
BACKGROUND:
Highland 22, LLC, property owner of APN 0227-051-03-0-000 (6527 Etiwanda Avenue)
(“Annexation Area”), have submitted an application for a single-family home subdivision. The
property owner is conditioned by the Fire Protection District to annex such property into the
existing CFD No. 85-1 to satisfy fire protection service mitigation impacts.
In January 2025, the Property Owners signed an Acknowledgement of Community Facilities
District Annexation and an Annexation Application Form to initiate the annexation of territory
identified as Annexation 25-1 (the “Territory”).
On February 4, 2025, the Board initiated formal annexation proceedings pursuant to the
provisions of the Mello-Roos Community Facilities Act of 1982 (the “Mello-Roos Act”) by adopting
Resolution FD 2025-001 approving the annexation map proposed to be annexed in CFD 85-1
and Resolution No. FD 2025-002 approving the intention to annex the Territory in the existing
CFD 85-1. These Resolutions, among other things, declared the intention of the Board of
Directors to levy a special tax within the Territory to finance fire protection and suppression
services and set a public hearing regarding the proposed annexation to be held on March 19,
2025.
Page 176
Page 2

7
ANALYSIS:
In order to finalize the formal annexation proceedings, the Fire Board is being asked to adopt the
following resolutions.
Resolution Calling a Special Election (Attachment 1) will adopt the calling of a special election
and authorize the submittal of the levy of special taxes to the qualified electors of such territory.
Exhibit “A” of the Resolution illustrates the Territory proposed to be annexed. Exhibit “B” of the
Resolution provides a description of the services and facilities which will, in part, be financed
through the levy of the special tax on the Territory if annexed. Exhibit “C” of the Resolution sets
forth the rate and method of apportionment of the special tax proposed to be levied within the
Territory which is consistent with the special tax levied upon all territories currently within CFD
85-1.
The annexation of the Territory into CFD 85-1 will satisfy the conditions of development relating
to mitigating impacts upon fire protection services. The Property Owner is in full support of the
annexation of the property being annexed. Pursuant to the Mello-Roos Act, whenever there have
been less than 12 persons registered to vote within the Territory for each of the 90 days preceding
the public hearing pertaining to such annexation, the vote shall be by the property owners within
the Territory. Therefore, in the current circumstances, the election will be the Property Owner’s
vote. The Property Owner will have one vote per acre or portion thereof of land within the
Territory.
The Property Owner within the Territory desires that the special election be held on March 19,
2025 and has executed a “Consent and Waiver” that allows for shortened time frames relating to
the election.
The Public Notice regarding the Public Hearing was advertised in the Inland Valley Daily Bulletin
on March 4, 2025.
Resolution Declaring the Results of Election (Attachment 2) will declare the results of a special
election in Community Facilities District No. 85-1, Annexation 25-1, and order the annexation of
such property.
At the special election to be held on March 19, 2025, the Property Owner(s) will be entitled to cast
their ballot. The Board Secretary will then canvas the ballot and complete the statement of votes
cast. A copy of the Certificate of Election Official and Statement of Votes Cast is shown in Exhibit
“A”. If 2/3 of the votes are cast in favor of the levy of the special tax, the Board may declare the
property to be annexed.
Adoption of this Resolution constitutes the formal action of the Board declaring the results of the
election and the annexation of the Territory to Community Facilities District No. 85-1 and directs
the recordation of an amendment to the existing Notice of Special Tax Lien. By recordation of this
amendment, prospective purchasers of the property within the Territory will have notice of the
special tax obligations effecting such properties.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The special tax revenues that are collected from CFD No. 85-1 are used to pay for public facilities
and services in the District area. Costs related to the administering of the District are the
responsibility of the property owners within the District. Annexation of the Territory will ensure
the Property Owner covers the cost of increased demand for fire services resulting from new
development within the Territory.

improvement, or rehabilitation of certain types of fire facilities (the “Facilities”) that are in addition to those
currently provided to serve the Territory and are necessary to meet the increased demand for such fire
services resulting from new development within the Territory and will not be replacing facilities already
available to serve the Territory. A general description of the types of the Facilities to be financed is as
follows:
Fire protection and suppression facilities and equipment, rescue equipment, with a useful
life of five (5) years or more, including collection and accumulation of funds to pay for
anticipated facilities cost shortfalls and reserves for repair and replacement to the extent
that such facilities are necessary to meet the increased demand for such facilities
resulting from new development within the Territory.

Questions?
DATE:March 19, 2025
TO:Mayor and Members of the City Council
FROM:John R. Gillison, City Manager
INITIATED BY:Jennifer Nakamura, CNU-A, Planning Director
Aracely Estrada, Management Analyst I
SUBJECT:Consideration to Receive and File the General Plan Annual Progress
Report and the Housing Element Annual Progress Report for 2024.
(CITY)
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends the City Council receive and file the General Plan Annual Progress Report and
the Housing Element Annual Progress Report for 2024; authorize the City Manager to make any
necessary non-substantive changes to the report; and direct staff to forward it to the California
Governor’s Office of Land Use and Climate Innovation and the California Department of Housing
and Community Development.
BACKGROUND:
A General Plan is a city’s blueprint or constitution, for future development. It documents the city’s
long-range vision and establishes clear goals, objectives, and actions to guide the community
through the next 10 to 20 years of change. A city must update its general plan periodically to keep
up with changing needs and conditions of the city and region. It should also be updated to reflect
new local, state and federal laws. State law requires each city and county to adopt a General Plan
that address several topics, typically referred to as “elements.” This includes the adoption of a
Housing Element.
The Housing Element is an important planning policy document that is used to identify the City’s
projected housing needs and establish policies that support development of all housing types,
including affordable housing. The Housing Element is subject to detailed statutory requirements
and mandatory review by the California Department of Housing and Community Development
(HCD). The Housing Element is currently in its 6th Cycle, which covers an 8-year planning period
from October 2021 through October 2029. The 6th Cycle Housing Element was adopted by the
City Council in October 2021 and certified by HCD in August 2022.
California Government Code Section 65400 requires that each city and county prepare an Annual
Progress Report (APR) to report on the status and progress of the General Plan’s implementation
and separately, the Housing Element. Copies of both the General Plan and the Housing Element
APRs must be provided to the California Governor’s Office of Land Use and Climate Innovation
(LCI), formally Governor’s Office of Planning and Research (OPR), and HCD by April 1 of each
year. Section 65400 of the Government Code also requires that the annual report be considered
at a public meeting before the legislative body allowing for public comment, but not necessarily
held as a public hearing.

The General Plan APR is separate from the Housing Element APR in that the General Plan APR
provides local legislative bodies and the public an update on the progress of implementing the
General Plan for their city or county, while the Housing Element APR demonstrates the city’s
progress in meeting its projected housing needs. Unlike the Housing Element APR, the General
Plan APR does not have a standardized format and the guidance provided by LCI allows for
flexibility, which may need to vary based on a jurisdiction’s individual circumstances.
ANALYSIS:
The City Council adopted its current General Plan on December 15, 2021. The updated General
Plan, also referred to as Plan RC, lays out a series of strategies to chart a path towards a 21st
century world-class community that is grounded in the foundational core values identified by the
Rancho Cucamonga community: Health, Equity and Stewardship. The vision of Plan RC is to
create a city for people – a city of great neighborhoods, natural open spaces and parks, thriving
commercial and industrial areas, and walkable and active centers and districts, all connected by
safe and comfortable streets.
The attached General Plan APR summarizes a variety of measures and activities undertaken by
the City in 2024 that advance the goals and policies of the General Plan. Embracing the
opportunity for flexibility in the APR’s format, Rancho Cucamonga’s report has been developed
in an easy-to-read format that allows it to also serve as a report card to the residents of Rancho
Cucamonga on the City’s progress in implementing Plan RC. Highlights of the APR include
measures taken to implement the General Plan and the corresponding General Plan policies it
supports as well as highlights of development projects that were active in 2024.
The General Plan APR also includes data from the Housing Element APR such as the number of
applications submitted and the number of housing units entitled, permitted, and constructed.
While the Housing Element APR is submitted to LCI and HCD in a large excel file that includes
detailed data as required by HCD, the General Plan APR summarizes key points of the Housing
Element APR.
The General Plan APR and Housing Element APR data was received and filed by the members
of the Planning Commission during their March 12, 2024, meeting. Upon acceptance of the 2024
APRs by the City Council, staff will submit the report to LCI and HCD by the April 1st deadline in
compliance with California Government Code Section 65400.
FISCAL IMPACT:
None.
COUNCIL MISSION / VISION / VALUE(S) ADDRESSED:
As part of the implementation of the General Plan, this item supports the City Council’s Vision of
creating an equitable, sustainable, and vibrant city, rich in opportunity for all to thrive by building
on our foundation and success as a world class community.
