Police
Department 2015 March 2017 None
In November 2016, the City Council gave staff
direction to bring back options for their consideration
in order to address the growing public safety concerns
as the event's popularity continues to grow. Staff is
working closely with the City Attorney's Office to
explore the possibilities of restricting either pedestrian
or vehicular traffic in the Thoroughbred loop to reduce
vehicle-pedestrian interaction. Recommendations will
be brough to the Council in February 2017.
The Police Department has hosted 2-community
meetings with residents on Thoroughbred and the
nearby neighborhoods. The goal of the meetings is to
engage the residents in discussing their concerns, the
City's concerns, and possible solutions to help all in
improving public safety, reducing neighborhood
impacts in order for all to enjoy the holiday season.
To date, the meetings have been beneficial, giving
interested residents the chance to share their
thoughts not just with us, but with neighbors they
otherwise wouldn't talk to face-to-face. We have also
achieved the goal of working together to enhance
safety for all and explained we are not working to shut
down the holiday light display. We are preparing an
assessment of car counts and timing of cars traveling
through before our next meeting which is planned for
September 2016. We expect to have our final
recommendations prepared by January 2017. Interim
adjustments for 2016 are being made.

and a report has been provided with a series of
recommendations to mitigate safety and security
issues. Next steps are to evaluate the information
and develop an implementation plan.
The Lewis Family Playhouse is completing a safety
plan specific to that venue. A multi-department team
has met and developed an action plan to address
safety plans at other City facilities. The two public
libraries will be the next buildings evaluated, followed
by Central Park. Facilities will be evaluated based in
individual plans of service to the public.

The Finance Director and Finance Manager had a
consultation with Tom Johnson, Fieldman Rolapp &
Associates, to discuss the strengths and offsetting
factors that should be considered for a future credit
rating review. A primary focus of the consultation was
the development of specific policies and procedures
that will improve the credit-worthiness of the City and
indicate sound financial practices. The Finance
Manager, in conjunction with the Finance Director’s
oversight and input, has begun drafting a series of
financial policies that will provide standards and
guidelines for the financial transactions of the City.
The Finance Manager has drafted a debt
management policy to comply with the requirements
of SB 1029 and it is being reviewed internally.
The new Finance Manager continues to assist the
Finance Director in furthering the progress of this
project with the City's financial consultant. Work is in
progress to develop new policies and procedures for
the City which will strengthen the City's financial
management component of its credit rating.
Additionally, the Finance Department will be working
in conjunction with DoIT on the City's PCI DSS
(Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard)
compliance. PCI DSS is a set of requirements
designed to ensure that ALL companies that process,
store or transmit credit card information maintain a
secure environment. The process to become PCI
compliant will ultimately result in some new City
policies that are anticipated to have a positive effect
on the City's efforts to maximize its credit rating.

Staff has been working on evaluating the changes in
Land Use and business needs along Foothill Blvd.
and within the Industrial Commercial Overlay Districts.
Many minor changes to the Development Code have
already been incorporated to help guide development
and allow additional uses into these districts.
Additional changes are being evaluated to determine
if rezoining is the best approach or if more flexible
standards and new uses could be considered in these
existing districts. Staff anticipates that a draft of the
development standards would be complete in late 2 or
early 3 quarter of 2017 so that both the Mixed Use
and Industrial development code amendments could
more forward to Planning Commission and City
Council together.
Staff has been working to identify parcels along
Foothill Blvd. and within the Industrial Commercial
Overlay Districts (ICOD). The goal is to continue to
evaluate and map the locations that are appropriate
for potential rezoning or to evaluate the Development
Code language to determine if the goal could be
accomplished by allowing additional uses within the
existing zoning districts with specific conditions. Final
recommendations on possible rezoning will be
completed in March 2017.

Staff Time and
some consultant
support which
will be proposed
as part of the
13/14 budget
process.
Several meetings were hald with SBCFCD, USFW,
CDFW and the City and its consultants in the Fall of
2017. These meetings included a much greater
detailed and refined plan for development of the 6,000
acres, development of an economic model, and
discussion with the wildlife agencies about the
prospects for habitat restoration versus preservation
and the value of restored habitat from a conservation
perspective to the economic feasibility of the larger
development. The plan was submitted with fees for
preliminary review and feedback is expected in
January 2017 which will determine if the project
moves forward or is dropped.
The past 6 months staff, the consultant team, and
San Bernardino County Flood Control District
(SBCFCD) have devoted significant time and study to
addressing U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and the
California Department of Fish and Wildlife habitat
concerns regarding the potential presence of
protected species, primarily the SB Kangaroo Rat.
Substantial SB Kangaroo Rat trappings have been
conducted and this additional work has found no
presence of the species on site. USFWS has
concurred that the SBKR is absent from the site and
staff is working with CDFW to reach the same
conclusion. During the time the trappings were taking
place, the consultant team also studied the area for
the quality of the Riversidian Alluvial Fan Sage Scrub
(RAFSS) presence. The biologist determined that the
RAFSS is degraded due to the lack of sand and water
that is on the site as a result of the two damns (Day
Creek and Deer Creek) and the levy that have been
constructed. CDFW has acknowledged the existing
RAFSS habitat is declining and will continue to
degrade. In response, staff and the consultant team
are working on a restoration plan that will restore
water and import sand to the site. The consultant
team is working with SBCFCD to discuss project
design considerations that will be used to refine the
initial development concepts for the project site and
development of the North Eastern Sphere Annexation
Specific Plan.

Staff has been working on the last major phase of
creating final mixed use development standards and
identifying the boundaries of the Mixed Use village
districts as well as the areas of NO Change. Staff is
focused on drafting standards that create vibrant
urban areas along Foothill Boulevard while protecting
the existing residence and businesses around these
areas. Staff has started mapping the villages and has
begun work with Smarter Better Cities who will
perform some of the modeling for the mixed use
areas. We continue to research Development
Standards from other cities, taking in person and
virtual filed trips to view new constructed projects, and
will be working with a traffic consultant to create
appropriate parking standards for Mixed Use
developments. Staffs goal is to have draft standards
to Planning Commission to review in late 2 or early 3
quarter 2017.
Staff has been working to identify parcels along
Foothill Blvd. that would be appropriate for Mixed
Use/TOD/Higher Density development. After the
parcels were identified staff initiated a General Plan
Amendment which was approved by City Council on
June 15, 2016 to amend the Land Use of the
identified parcels to Mixed Use. Land Use
amendments will still need to be approved with each
project on a case by case basis. Additionally, staff has
held a kick off meeting to evaluate appropriate
boundaries for the overlays districts or Villages based
on character defining features along each section of
Foothill Blvd. Development Code changes to address
these districts, appropriate parking standards, and
corrections to the Development Code language will be
drafted and forwarded to the City Council for review
and action. Next steps include mapping the district
boundaries, creating graphics and images of the high
profile intersections and gateways to the districts, and
drafting the Development Code language.
