Adams, City Clerk of the City of Rancho Cucamonga, hereby certify that a true, accurate copy of the foregoing agenda was posted on February 28, 2008, per Government Code 54954.2 at 10500 Civic Center Drive, Rancho Cucamonga, California. STAFF REPORT Crn~:~L~~.~cLx's OrFICF Date March 5, 2008 To Mayor and Members of the City Council Jack Lam, AICP, City Manager From Pamela Easter, Assistant City Manager Kevin McArdle, Commundy Services Director By Fabian A Villenas, Principal Management Analyst Erika Lewis-Huntley, Management Analyst II Subtect Discussion of Healthy Cities Program rn Rancho Cucamonga ~- RANCxo cUCAMONGA Introduction At its recent Goal Setting Workshop, the City Council identified the development of a Healthy Cities Program as one of its goals for 2008 in response to City Council's direction, staff began compiling information regarding Healthy Cities, conducted an internal audit of Healthy Cities-related programs and amenities currently offered by the City, interviewed other cities with Healthy Cities Programs, met with County of San Bernardino Healthy Communities Program staff, and began discussing this concept with Hogle-Ireland, the City's General Plan consultant The culmination of these efforts was a multi-departmental staff workshop held on February 12~h to gather input regarding the Healthy Cities concept The information gathered from this workshop, as well as a recommendation to implement a Healthy Cities Program in Rancho Cucamonga, will be presented to the City Council at the March 5`h Cdy Councl Study Session Background In response to growing concerns over rising obesity rates as well as rising type 2 diabetes and cancer rates, especially in children, and the decline in physical activity, cities have become increasingly conscious of promoting polices that engage their citizens in more activities that are healthy, and consider community design that makes more parks available and streets that encourage walking rather than relying on cars This increased awareness has led to collective efforts to promote a Healthy Cities concept where communities serve as healthy places to live, work, and play This concept includes access to recreational amenities such as parks, trails, community centers, and sports facilities, access to healthy foods, programs and classes that encourage fitness, information and education on fitness, nutrition, and health, opportunities for personal growth, cultural diversity, and mental health, cultural and literacy-related programs, safe and walkable neighborhoods, and plans and policies that support healthy Irving Part of the Healthy Cities concept includes understanding the relationship between health-related factors, land use policies, and community planning as well as understanding the long-term community benefits to be gained by encouraging healthy lifestyles An unhealthy community will have less productive school and work lives, higher medical expenses, and a decreased quality of life DISCCSSiON OI HF'nI'1IIY CITIES PROCI2AM IiV IUINCHO CUCAMONGA PAGE 3 MARCI [ 5, 2008 At the State level, the California Healthy Cities and Communities (CHCC) network was created for groups interested in the principles and practices of healthy cities and communities Rancho Cucamonga recently joined this network which promotes a clean and safe place to live, work and play, a strong economy with diverse and well paying fobs for everyone, good schools and opportunities for life-long learning, accessible and affordable housing, among other initiatives The League of California Cities has also recognized the importance of the Healthy Cities concept by adopting a resolution that, among other things, resolved that the League encourage cities to "embrace policies that faclitate activities that promote healthier lifestyles, including healthy diet and nutrition, and adopt aty design and planning princples that enable citizens to undertake exercise with the goal of achieving a more active and healthy community "The County of San Bernardino Department of Public Health has also established a Healthy Communities Division to encourage and support the development of Healthy Cities Programs within the County A representative from the County Division will be attending the March 51h City Council Study Session Healthy Cities m Other Communities Staff conducted informal interviews with surrounding cities to explore the details of each Healthy Cities Program The cities of Chino, Fontana, Ontario, San Bernardino and Rialto have all either implemented programs or are currently in the process of developing programs Staff was interested in program development, program focus, types of programs and services provided, community and stakeholder involvement, staffing, and funding A detailed sample of a few aties is attached for your review A brief overview of the cities of Chino and Fontana are detailed below Healthy Chino was originated from an existing community group, the Healthy Chino Coalition The Healthy Chino Program was adopted in December 2004 when City Council passed a resolution endorsing the Healthy Cities concept and formal participation in the California Healthy Cities and Communities network Healthy Chino has evolved into awhole-person approach to health by identifying the following five key focus areas Fitness, Health and Human Services, Nutrition, Public Education, Safe and Walkable Neighborhoods Some of the programs and services provided include various walking clubs, Health & Fitness Expo, healthy snacks, community garden, Farmers Market, mental health services for residents, various recreation classes, Employee Wellness Program (recreation classes, walking, weight loss reward program), Stairwell Employee Art Program, Family Fitness Challenge, Healthy Chino website, Healthy Chino newsletter, and incorporation of healthy components in the General Plan Update The City initially hired a consultant to facilitate the development of the program Healthy Chino currently has one Part-time Coordinator (35hrs/wk) and one Part-time Specialist (25hrs/wk) funded through the General Fund As a result of continuous program expansion, they are considering hiring one additional Part-time Leader (20hrs/wk) Healthy Fontana was originally a protect that evolved into an official City program, spearheaded by Counalwoman Acquanetta Warren The Healthy Fontana campaign was offiaally launched in January 2004 Healthy Fontana was created to inform, educate and change the way people eat, exercise and live It promotes programs that enrich the quality of life for residents by focusing on Nutntion -Smart Choices, Active Living -Exercise, Smart Growth - Building a Livable Community, Community Partnerships -Working Together Fontana offers the following programs and services healthy cooking classes, walking clubs, exercise bootcamps, exercise classes, sporting activities, community gardening, health-a-thons, website with healthy tips and recipes, wellness program for local businesses, and "The Health of it" Newsletter The City initially hired a consultant to facilitate the development of the program Healthy Fontana currently has one Full-time Coordinator and one DItiCL'SSIO\ OP I-IPALIIIT CITIES PROC.IL\M IN RANCFIO CUCAMONGA nti~2C~ 1 5, ?008 PAGE 3 Part-time Coordinator (30-35hrs/wk) funded through the General Fund Fontana indicated that they regularly use other recreation staff on an as needed basis and will likely hire additional staff as the program continues to expand While each city's approach was unique, the following key elements were integral to their efforts commitment of local leadership, staffing, and resources, involvement of volunteers and community partners, public awareness of the benefits of the program, and availability of skill-bwlding opportunities for participants Given the opportunities and challenges inherent in this work, long- term investments-policymaking, funding, staffing, and acgwring in-kind resources-are needed to support planning, implementation, and evaluation Community visioning and strategic planning processes are additional opportunities to integrate this work Healthy Rancho Cucamonga One of the initial steps of our efforts to look at Healthy Cities has been to identify existing City programs, projects, activities, and amenities that are consistent with the Healthy Cities concept This internal audit demonstrated that Rancho Cucamonga provides a number of Healthy Cities types of programs to the community and does a significant amount to encourage healthy lifestyles Our system of parks, trails, and other recreational and cultural amenities provided by the Community Services and Library promote healthy lifestyle choices Police and Fire offer a variety of health and safety programs to the community Bwlding and Safety enforces a variety of ordinances that promote public health, the recently adopted "Styrofoam" Ban and Smoking Ban ordinances will further this effort as well In addition to all of the programs offered to the community, Administrative Services offers employee wellness programs and activities A detailed summary list of these efforts is attached for your review Based on Council feedback from the Goal Setting Workshop, staff is also in the process of developing new Healthy Cities-related programs including a fitness program at the Pacific Electric Trail, walking program at Victoria Gardens, health series of speakers at the libraries, among others From the extensive inventory of existing Healthy Cities-related programs, it is evident that a Healthy Cities Program can address a wide range of areas and regwres input from many sectors of local government, private sector, and community While the City of Rancho Cucamonga provides a substantial amount of programs and amenities, and continues to add new ones, we have not branded these as "healthy" and therefore not identified by the community as part of a formal Healthy Cities Program The Healthy Cities Program was discussed by the City staff at a recent brainstorming workshop that included representation from each department Representatives from the County of San Bernardino Healthy Communities Program, as well as representatives from Hogle-Ireland, the City's General Plan Consultant, joined the discussion to serve as a resource Staff examined the mayor components that contribute to a Healthy City and considered how this concept can be achieved Staff was encouraged to think creatively and with no reservations while partiapating in the discussions The goal of this initial stage was to create as many ideas as possible An inventory of existing programs, projects and partners was generated and opportunities for program enhancement were developed The group also discussed long-term goals and potential projects that could be implemented in a phased approach The results from this brainstorming session have been summarized and will be presented at the March 5~h City Councl Study Session DISCUbSION Ul Hl iU 71IY CI1 I1 S PROGRAM In RANC[IO CUCAMONGA PACE 4 M~ll2CI i 5, ?008 Staff will be presenting to the City Council a suggested approach for developing a Healthy Cities Program for Rancho Cucamonga This includes both short and longer-term actions that the City can take to enhance the well being of the community Staff recommends that the initial step be comprised of a two-year action plan which would include branding and marketing the many existing Healthy Cities-related programs and efforts previously identified under a Healthy Cities brand, analyzing existing health data indicators related to Rancho Cucamonga, establishing expectations and guiding principles for the program, utilizing technical assistance of various Healthy Cities- related organizations, developing a community-wide clearinghouse, staffing to assist in the development and management of the program, expanding partnerships and pursuing grant funding, and establishing a policy framework for Healthy Cities in the General Plan At the culmination of the 2-year plan, staff would seek further Council direction for future action which would include developing a 5-year Strategic Plan, providing a road map for the Healthy Cities Program to improve the overall health of Rancho Cucamonga's population The plan would include establishing along-term Healthy Cities strategy, conducting a community health needs assessment, developing measurable goals, developing a comprehensive marketing strategy, establishing and expanding additional partnerships in the community, and seeking mayor funding sponsorships and grants At the end of the five years, Council and staff would re-evaluate the program and determine future direction of the Healthy Cities Program Another City Council Study Session is scheduled for April 2nd to discuss the City's sustainability "green" efforts, and possibly linking it to the Healthy Cues efforts In summary, the efforts thus far have provided a foundation for operationalizing the City of Rancho Cucamonga Healthy Cities Program By introducing a visible, cohesive Healthy Cities Program, the City can encourage its residents to lead an active lifestyle and further contribute to making Rancho Cucamonga a healthy place to live, work, and play Attachments - Overview of Current City of Rancho Cucamonga Healthy
