SUBJECT:
October 7, 1998
Mayor and Members of the City Council
Jack Lam, City Manager
James C. Frost, City Treasurer
Lawrence I. Temple, Administrative Services Director
APPROVAL TO ADOPT ANNUAL STATEMENT OF INVESTMENT
POLICY
RECOMMENDATION
Annually the City Council reviews the Statement of Investment Policy. It is recommended that the
City Council approve and adopt the attached Statement of Investment Policy for the City of Rancho
Cucamonga.
BACKGROUND
The City Council adopted a Statement of Investment Policy in July 1987. California Government
Code, Section 53646, requires the City Treasurer to annually render to the City Council a Statement
of Investment Policy, which shall be considered at a public meeting. Further, the City Council must
also consider any modifications to the investment policy at a public meeting.
Under Treasury Management two significant goals were achieved this year. First, the City engaged
in a Request for Proposals (RFP) for banking and custody services. From time to time, the City
engages in market competition to improve its services. Overall this process enables the City to
obtain increased service levels at a lower cost. In addition, Bank of America has agreed to absorb
the costs associated with custody services. The total benefit derived annually as a result of the RFP
process equates to approximately $27,000. The City will receive the highest Government
Accounting Standards Board (GASB) Statement 3 rating possible by maintaining its assets with a
premier custodian provider. Lastly, the City completed a formal process and established an
authorized list of broker/dealers approved to provide investment services to the City. The City
consults the authorized broker/dealers and places its own investments. Based on these
broker/dealer's credit worthiness and experience, the City is able to analyze and determine which
investments are in its best interests.
The City' s investment policy and practices are governed by State law. The primary goal of the City's
policy is to enhance the economic standards of the City, to protect its pooled assets and to invest
public funds prudently. These funds are accounted for in the Rancho Cucamonga Comprehensive
Annual Financial Report and Council receives a monthly Portfolio Management Summary of
investment earnings (please see attached investment policy for details). The City continues to
maintain an investment strategy even more conservative than required under State law.

STATEMENT OF INVESTMENT POLICY
CITY OF RANCHO CUCAMONGA
INTRODUCTION
The investment policy and practices of the City of Rancho Cucamonga is based upon state law,
prudent money management and the "prudent person" standards. This statement is intended to
provide guidelines for the prudent investment of the City's temporary idle cash, and outline the
policies for maximizing the efficiency of the City' s cash management system. The primary goal of
this policy is to enhance the economic status of the City by protecting its pooled cash and to invest
public funds to:
1. Meet the daily cash flow needs of the City.
2. Comply with all laws of the State of California regarding investment of public funds.
Achieve a reasonable rate of return while minimizing the potential for capital losses
arising from market changes or issuer default.
SCOPE
The investment policy applies to all investment activities of the City of Rancho Cucamonga. These
funds are accounted for in the Rancho Cucamonga Comprehensive Annual Financial Report and
include: General Fund, Special Revenue Funds, Capital Project Funds, Enterprise Funds, Trust and
Agency Funds.
Bond proceeds shall be invested in accordance with the requirements and restrictions outlined in
bond documents as approved by the City Council.
OBJECTIVE
The City of Rancho Cucamonga operates its temporary pooled idle cash investment under the
Prudent Man Rule (Civil Code Section 2261, et. seq.)* This affords the City a broad spectrum of
investment opportunities as long as the investment is deemed prudent and is allowable under current
legislation of the State of California (Government Code Section 53600, et. seq.) and other legal
restrictions as the City may impose from time to time. The objective of the investment portfolio is
to meet the short and long term cash flow demands of the City. To achieve this objective, the
portfolio will be structured to provide Safety of Principal and Liquidity, while then providing a
reasonable return on investments.
Rev: 9/98
Statement of Investment Policy
Page 2
INVESTMENT OBJECTIVES
Security purchases and holdings will be maintained within statutory limits imposed by Government
Code. City policy has been to limit investments more stringently than allowed under state law.
Criteria for selecting investments and the order of priority are:
Safety - The safety and risk associated with an investment refers to the potential loss
of principal, interest, or combination thereof. The City only operates in those
investments that are considered safe. Investments shall be undertaken in a manner
that seeks to ensure that capital losses resulting from institution default, broker/dealer
default, or the erosion of market value are avoided. The City shall seek to preserve
principal by mitigating the two types of risk: credit risk and market risk.
Credit risk, defined as the risk of loss due to failure of the issuer of a security,
shall be mitigated by investing in only high quality securities and by
diversifying the investment portfolio so that the failure of any one issuer
would not unduly harm City cash flow.
Market risk, defined as the risk of market value fluctuations due to overall
changes in the general level of interest rates, shall be mitigated by structuring
the portfolio. It is explicitly recognized, however, that in a diversified
portfolio, occasional measured loses may occur, and must be considered
within the context of overall investment return.
Liquidity - This refers to the ability to "cash in" at any moment in time with minimal
chance of losing some portion of principal or interest. Liquidity is an important
investment quality especially when the need for unexpected funds occasionally
occurs. The City's investment portfolio will remain sufficiently liquid to enable the
City to meet operating requirements which might be reasonably anticipated.
Yield - The City's investment portfolio shall be designed with the objective of
attaining a reasonable market rate of return throughout economic cycles, as long as
it does not diminish the objectives of Safety and Liquidity.

SAFEKEEPING OF SECURITIES
Securities purchased from broker/dealers shall be held by third party bank or other designated third
party trust department acting as agent for the City under the terms of a custody agreement executed
by the bank and City. All securities will be received and delivered using standard delivery-versus-
payment (DVP) procedures. Certificate of Deposit securities are held in the City's vault. No outside
broker/dealer or advisor may have access to City funds, accounts or investments, and any transfer
of funds to or through an outside broker/dealer must be approved by the City Treasurer/Deputy
Treasurer.
The City strives to maintain the level of investment of all funds as near 100% as possible, through
daily and projected cash flow determinations. Idle cash management and investment transactions
are the responsibility of the City Treasurer and/or his appointed designee.
DIVERSIFICATION
The City will diversify its investments by security type, issuers, and maturities. The purpose of
diversifying is to reduce overall portfolio risks while attaining an average market rate of return;
therefore, it needs to be conceptualized in terms of maturity, instrument types and issuer.
REPORTING
Pursuant to Section 53464 (b) of the Government Code, the Treasurer shall render a quarterly report
to the City Council and City Manager, containing detailed information on all securities, investments,
and moneys of the City. The report must be submitted within 30 days following the end of the
quarter covered by the report.
This report shall include the following:
The type of investment, name of the issuer, date of maturity, par and dollar amount invested
in all securities.

Any funds, investments, or programs including loans that are under the management of
contracted parties.

that money is always safe and available when needed.
*The Prudent Man Rule states in essence, that "investing...properry for the benefit of another, a trustee shall exercise

LANDMARK DESIGNATION 98-01 - NORTHTOWN HOUSING DEVELOPMENT
CORPORATION - An application to designate the Guidera Winery House as an
Historic Landmark. The structure was built around 1921 and moved from 12737
Foothill Boulevard to its present site at 9801 Main Street - APN: 0209-062-23.
Related file: Conditional Use Permit 98-18.
RECOMMENDATION
Approval of Landmark Designation 98-01 by adoption of the attached Resolution as unanimously
recommended by the Historic Preservation Commission and staff.
BACKGROUND ANALYSIS
The house is a single story structure of wood construction in the Craftsman style. The Guidera
family resided in this house for many years and owned one of the small wineries in the Etiwanda
area. The Guidera family contributed much to the development of the Etiwanda area and was one
of the founding families of the Sacred Heart Catholic Church in Eftwanda.
The Guidera Winery House certainly qualifies for landmark designation based upon much of the
criteria from the City's Historic Preservation Ordinance, including significant areas such as the
historical, cultural, and architectural setting. Details concerning these areas of significance are
contained in the Facts of Findings section of the attached Histodc Preservation Commission staff
report and Resolution dated September 9, 1998, (see Exhibit "A").

LANDMARK DESIGNATION 98-01 - NORTHTOVVN HOUSING DEVELOPMENT
CORPORATION - An application to designate the Guidera Winery House as an
Histodc Landmark. The structure was built around 1921 and moved from 12737
Foothill Boulevard to its present site at 9801 Main Street - APN: 0209-062-23.
Related file: Conditional Use Permit 98-18.
PROJECT AND SITE DESCRIPTION:
Historic Siqnificance: The subject residence was constructed around 1921. The house is a
single story structure of wood construction in the Craftsman style and was originally located
at 12737 Foothill Boulevard. The Guidera family owned one of the small wineries in the
Etiwanda area and resided in this house for many years. The Guidera family contributed
much to the development of the Etiwanda area and was one of the founding families of the
Sacred Hearth Catholic Church in Etiwanda.
B. Site Characteristics: The Guidera Winery House was originally located on a roughly 4.64 acre
site on Foothill Boulevard. However, in 1992, the house was relocated to 9801 Main Street
because a new commercial center (Walmart) was developed on the original site. In order to
approve the relocation of the house to this property, a new two-car garage was required and
constructed. The current site is approximately 8,923 square feet in size. The house is located
within a residential neighborhood (Northtown). The property is surrounded by a single family
residence to the east, a cluster residential subdivision to the west, and the rail road tracks to
the south. The subject property is separated from these properties by a 5-foot high block wall.
ANALYSIS:
General: The style of architecture used in the Guidera Winery House constitutes an example
of architectural style by which other properties in the general area, as seen by the design of
the new residences (see Exhibit "B"), emulate the historic building.
So
Landmark Designation: The requested landmark designation includes the Guidera Winery
House only (see Exhibit "A"). The subject structure certainly qualifies for landmark
designation based upon much of the criteria from the City's Histodc Preservation Ordinance,
including such significant areas as: historical, cultural, and architectural setting. Details
concerning these areas follow:

Sal Salazar, Associate Planner, presented the staff report and indicated staff had received a letter
of support from an adjoining property owner.
Chairman McNiel opened the public hearing.
Peter Pitassi, AIA, Architect, 8439 White Oak Avenue, Suite 105, Rancho Cucamonga, reported
that Northtown Housing Development Corporation purchased the property approximately eight
months ago intending to renovate it and sell it as part of their affordable housing program. He said
they have since decided this would be a natural place to have their office in order to be able to
better serve the community. He agreed with the conditions in the resolution and said they would
only have to add power and phone outlets in order to accommodate the office use and there
would be no exterior modifications.
Nacho Gracia, Executive Director, Northtown Housing Development Corporation, 9999 Feron
Boulevard, Suite A, Rancho Cucamonga, stated they would like to use the house as an office
because it is in the middle of the area they serve. He observed that some of their clients walk to
their office and said he did not want to move the office out of the area.
Commissioner Tolstoy asked what they intend to do at the end of three years since they had
indicated the house will only be used as an office for approximately two to three years.
Mr. Gracia responded they are looking for some place to build. He said they considered the
community center but it did not work.
Commissioner Tolstoy hoped they will stay in the same area because he felt it is important.
Mr. Gracia agreed.
Hearing no further testimony, Chairman McNiel closed the public hearing.
Commissioner Tolstoy felt the proposal is a win/win situation. He thought Northtown Housing
Development Corporation should have offices as close as possible to the area. He felt the
Craftsman style architecture looks wonderful. He supported the project.
Motion: Moved by Macias, seconded by Tolstoy, to adopt the resolutions recommending approval
of Landmark Designation 98-01 and approving Conditional Use Permit 98-18. Motion carded by
the following vote:
AYES:

BACKGROUND/ANALYSIS
In Spring of 1998, the California State Library offered the opportunity for libraries to apply for funds
under the competitive grant program titled Library Services and Technology Act, funded by the Federal
government. Based on a survey conducted by the Library in 1995 that showed a desire on behalf of the
public for increased services to elementary school aged children as well as providing assistance in
homework, staff chose to design a literacy and learning enhancement program for elementary aged
students.
Called "Back to Basics", the Learning Center will offer one-on-one tutoring assistance for elementary
school students who lack basic skills in reading, writing and math. The Center will also feature four CD
ROM stations, loaded with educational software, available to all students.
FISCAL IMPACT:
$48,290 in grant funds will be made available through this grant. An additional $22,650 in matching
funds are required. The Rancho Cucamonga Public Library Foundation raised over $50,000 during the
1998 Telethon to support children's services and other key library programs and has budgeted $20,000
for this project. The remaining $2,650 will be absorbed by the Library budget or donated by the Friends
of the Library. In kind costs will be absorbed by using existing staff and equipment.

8. Project Summary: complete in space provided.
State Level Goal and Objective: D: Promotion and enhancement of targeted library services to people of diverse
geographic, cultural and socioeconomic backgrounds,' to individuals with disabilities; and to people with limited
functional literacy or information skills. Short Term Objective: By 2002. special LSE4-supported grant programs to
improve the abilities of children to use library services will reach at least 15% of California's children in the chosen
target population age range. (p. 10-11)
Given that today's children are those who will lead us in the 21st Century and that communities must parmer with
schools to provide resources to create literate, informed and responsible leaders for tomorrow, Rancho Cucamonga
Library seeks funding to open a "Back to Basics" Learning Center for elementary school students who lack basic
skills in reading, writing and math. The Center will offer one-on-one tutoring assistance supported by technology.
bln 1997, the Rancho Cucamonga Public Library conducted a survey which was mailed to all 53,000 households in the
city. Over 500 surveys w~re returned and analyzed by staff. The priorities of this family-oriented community were
clear: individual tutoring for school-aged children in reading, writing, spelling and math appeared as the most
important priority for community residents, exceeded only by open hours and new materials. To create a model
program, the Library's Childtens Specialists and Literacy staff members partnered with Title I instructional staff
from the Alta Loma School District (ALSD) and staffof the local housing authority, Southern California Housing, to
discuss elements of a successful tutoring program for multiethnic youngsters. The "Back to Basics" model came
from these early group discussions with librarians, teachers and housing specialists.
The target group for this program are children 7 to 12 years old perceived as "at risk" for dropping out of school
through frustration and low self esteem and need personalized assistance with reading, writing and/or mathematical
skills. Early outreach efforts will concentrate on schools with a high poverty level and youngsters with a low
achievement record. Referrals will be accepted from school personnel or parents. To help develop a library linkage
for the entire family, a parent or guardian will be required to attend an orientation with the student when starting the
program, including a tour of the library emphasizing the full spectrum of services available for the entire family.
The "Back to Basics" Learning Center will be located next to the children's room and the Technology Center. Thr~
study tables with chairs and one two-person study room will be available, surrounding a counter holding four CD
ROMS stations, each mounted with six educational programs. Book materials selected for the Learning Center will
include a broad mixture of controlled vocabulary materials and beginning readers. Basic reference tools will also be
available. Workbooks and reproduc~le tutoring materials on mathematics, spelling and phonics will also be part of
the collection available to tutors. Volunteer tutors will staff the Center on weekdays after school and in the early
evenings, however the resources of the Learning Center and the CD ROM terminals will be available seven days a
week during all library hours, facilitated by project staff and library staff in the Technology Center.
Tutors will be recruited from a variety of sources including Cal Poly Pomona's Teacher Education Department,
Chaffey College Teaching Program, local Senior Centers, and Regional Occupation Program youth through the local
High School. Tutor training will be provided jointly by Literacy Staff and Children's Specialists, with Literacy staff
providing guidance on using one-on-one tutoring techniques while Children's Services staff emphasizes successful
communication skills and !earning styles that work with youngsters.
Bi-monthly family nights will be presented at the library to continue involvement of the parents of children being
tutored at the Learning Center. These evening and weekend programs will encourage participants to develop
parenting skills that will teach them how to help their child achieve in school. Family nights will also be offered off-
site to support outreach in the community. Topics will include demonstrating to parents the importance of reading
aloud, how to help a child develop good study habits, how to help a child learn to use the h'brary, etc.

10. Client needs and project goals.
Over 20,758 youngsters, or 18% of the population, are enrolled in elementary and secondary school in Rancho
Cucamonga. However, the primary target groups for the "Back to Basics" program are children 7 to 12 years old
perceived as "at risk". Defined by "The Goals 2000", Educate America Act of 1994 as a student who, "because of
limited English proficiency, poverty, race, geographic location, or economic disadvantage, faces a greater risk of low
educational achievement or reduced academic expectations", these youngsters are children who need personalized
assistance to succeed in learning the basic cornerstone educational skills such as reading, writing, spelling or math.
For the first year of the program, emphasis in outreach will be placed on the two districts reflecting the highest "at
risk" profile: Central School District and Cucamonga School District. These districts rank in the 50% to 80% overall
poverty rate for families, as measured by free lunch program statistics. While ten schools comprise these two
districts, strongest outreach efforts will focus on the following four schools, selected for low performance scores,
high ethnic mix, high poverty level and close proximity to the library.

14. Public relations plan.
The Terra Vista Children's Task Force, a local organization dedicated to serving youth in the progrant service area,
has committed to support this project by recommending community contacts, posting fliers, distributing brochures
and assisting with word of mouth promotion. The Task Force is comprised of the Principals of each school in the
program service area; the Youth at Risk !iaision from the Rancho Cucamonga Police Department; the Supervisor of
Youth Services from the Community Services Department of the city of Rancho Cucamonga; the Executive Director
of the YMCA; the Director of the Rancho Cucamonga Public Library and Lewis Homes Development Corporation.
In addition, Attachment A shows the many organizations that have expressed support for the program.
An informational brochure will be prepared about the services and distributed at all the facilities described above, as
well as each of the 5 community centers located throughout the city. The library will utilize its current press release
system, which informs 5 area newspapers and 2 cable TV stations of library services and scheduled programs. The
quarterly publication "Grapevine", distributed by the City to 53,000 households will contain a release about the
program in each issue.
The project coordinator will meet with teach staff at each of the schools, visit each of the Parent Teacher Association
groups at their quarterly meetings, and establish an orientation to the program at the three housing developments in
the City managed by Southern California Housing Authority and Lewis Homes Development Corporation.
Finally, the Library's major fundraiser, a Library Telethon conducted each year in March and broadcast over both
cable stations in the community, will feature a special report on the service, highlighting youngsters participating and
the progresses made.
15. Statewide significance.
According to the Carnegie Corporation's 1992 study, d Matter of Time: Risk and Opportunity in the NonSchool
Hours, "young people from poor families are most likely to live in unsafe neighborhoods and to be unsupervised
during the afterschool hours. They are least likely to have access to constructive alternatives. They are at extremely
high risk. They are the youth whose lives hang in the balance."
Futurist Magazine in March of 1997 stated that "up to 15% of 16 to 19 year olds ar~ at risk of never reaching their
potential and simply becoming lost in society. Others would add to this category children of any age if they are at
risk of not becoming self-supporting adults, headed for a life in institutions for delinquiency, crime, mental illness,
addiction, and dependency."
The impact of these youngsters, lost to society, an economic burden in the future, has tremendous impact on the
future of California. Programs such as "Back to Basics" attack the problem at the root: shoring up self esteem,
improving basic skills that are the cornerstone of educational development and nurturing a habit of library use in the
young. All positive influences that help fight the primary antecedents to at-risk behavior described by Father
Flanagan's Boys Horne, in Boys Town, Nebraska: Early age of initiation; poor achievement in school and low
expectation for achievement, low resistance to peer influences and lack of parental support.
Finally of significance to the State, this program can be easily replicated in other communities across the State, since
it emphasizes volunteer support rather than costly staff time and can be overseen by existing professional staff in
established Literacy and Children's Services departments.

16. Evaluation.
For evaluation purposes, number of hours open, number of youth served per hour open, number of tutor/students
matched and number of hours they meet, program attendance will all be logged. Quarterly, during specified 2 week
periods, an evaluation form will be completed by all volunteers, program participants and parents.
To evaluate use of technology, a log will be kept on the number of times the CD Rom terminals are used and an
automatic count of the number of times a software program is launched will be kept.
The skills assessment tool Alta Loma School District agreed to develop for this project will be used both to assess
skills of the student entering the program, then again every 3 months during the program. This assessment will help
evaluate the progress of the student. Students may remain in the program at the discretion of the student and tutor,
unless the program develops a waiting list of youngsters needing assistance. In that event, if the assessment results in
the student raising his ability to "average" or better for his reading level, the student will be asked to leave the-
program._The student may again enter the program in the next school year.
17. Methods of continuation:
A. Local
The oversight of the program in continuing years will be shared by the Literacy Director and the Children's Services
Supervisor. The maintenance and repair of technology will be taken over by the data processing department of the
City of Rancho Cucamonga.
The Board of the Rancho Cucamonga Public Library has declared service to youth as their top priority. ;Fhe
provision of tutoring assistance to youth has been stated as a major need by the public and the Board has expressed
intention to fund the program. The City recently approved a budget that included a line item of $16,830 for the
purchase of children's materials, directly in support of this grant project.
The HUD program coordinator has already been approached and agreed to the viability of the program in qualify for
Block Grant support and the city of Rancho Cucamonga has a policy in place that gives city programs top priority for
funding from these monies.
The Library also has an extremely active and successful annual fund raising program. The Library Telethon, now in
third year of planning, has a track record of success, raising $40,000 in the lust year and $50,000 in the second year.
Foundation Board members have already committed to supporting the program by funding grant staff salaries for the
fourth quarter of the project. They are enthusiastic about funding the project in 1999/2000, if it proves successful
during this trial year.
PTA and School support has been strong for this project. As the major fund-raising project for the 1998 Telethon,
the Learning Center received donations of over $3,000 from PTA's, School Organizations, School Superintendent,
Principals and staff.
Finally, the Rancho Cucamonga Public Library has a strong volunteer base. Administered by a Volunteer
Coordinator, the program features volunteer positions at all levels. From Seniors to High School students, more than
100 volunteers are currently registered.

APPROVAL OF DEVELOPER REAL PROPERTY IMPROVEMENT
AGREEMENT FOR THE DEFERRED INSTALLATION OF MISSING PUBLIC
IMPROVEMENTS FOR TWO (2) YEARS AND IMPROVEMENT SECURITIES
FOR 5625 HELLMAN AVENUE, LOCATED NORTH OF WILSON AVENUE,
SUBMITTED BY JERRY L. STAPP AND SAUNDRA STAPP
RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Council adopt the attached resolution accepting the subject
Developer Real Property Improvement Agreement and Improvement Securities and authorizing the
Mayor and the City Clerk to sign said agreement and causing the same to record.
BACKGROUND/ANALYSIS
The developers, Jerry L. Stapp and Saundra Stapp, of 5625 Hellman Avenue, located north of
Wilson Avenue, requested a building permit for a single family residence. Installation of missing
public improvements are a condition of issuing the building permit. The City Code requires that all
missing public improvements adjacent to a property be completed upon issuance of a building
permit. The developers have submitted a Developer Agreement and proposed for postponement of
installation of said improvement two (2) years from the date of building permit issuance.
Improvement Securities were also submitted to guarantee said installation. The construction costs
to be incurred by the property owners, including design and review of the street improvements, is
approximately $30,000.00. Staff felt it is acceptable to defer said improvements for two (2) years.
Copies of the agreement and securities are available in the City Clerk's office.

PARCEL MAP 9349, LOCATED ON THE SOUTH SDE OF STRANG LANE,
EAST OF CARNELIAN STREET AND RELEASE OF A REAL PROPERTY
IMPROVEMENT CONTRACT AND LIEN AGREEMENT, REQUESTED BY
DANNY W. PAULSON AND EARLINE R. PAULSON
RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Council adopt the attached resolutions summarily ordering the
vacation of portions of Parcels 1 and 2 of Parcel Map 9349, located on the south side of Strang Lane,
east of Camelian Street as described in Exhibit "A" and releasing the Real Property Improvement
Contract and Lien Agreement and authorizing the Mayor to sign said release and the City Clerk to
record same.
BACKGROUND/ANALYSIS
On May 2, 1990, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 90-186 designating Strang Lane as a
private street and exempting the abutting properties from the requirements to dedicate public street
right-of-way. On July 14, 1998, the property owners of Parcels 1 and 2 of the Parcel Map 9349,
Danny W. Paulson and Earline R. Paulson submitted an application for vacation of an existing
irrevocable offer of street dedication fronting their property. With the designation of Strang Lane
as a private street under City Ordinance 58-C, offers of street dedication can be vacated and as a
result of this, the applicants are now requesting that the vacation occur. The vacation of the last
remaining offer of dedication along the street will be processed in the future when requested by the
adjacent property owners.
The subject irrevocable offer of street dedication is located at the easterly terminus of Strang Lane
east of Carnelian Street and sits in front of two parcels as described and shown on Exhibits "A" and
On September 9, 1998, the Planning Commission determined that said vacation would conform to
the General Plan and recommended that the vacation occur.

AUTHORIZATION FOR THE REPLACEMENT LEASE OF ONE (1) FORD
RANGER EV PICKUP FROM FRITTS FORD OF RIVERSIDE,
CALIFORNIA IN THE AMOUNT OF $15,553.71 AND FUNDED FROM 72-
4225-7045
RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Council authorize the replacement lease of one (1) Ford Ranger EV
electric vehicle from Fritts Ford of Riverside, California in the amount of$15,553.71 funded from
account 72-4225-7045.
BACKGROUND/ANALYSIS
The Fiscal Year 1998/1999 budget includes an appropriation of $24,000 for the replacement of Unit
910 (asset 1158). Unit 910 is a 1991 Chevrolet S-10 pickup used in the Public Works Section by
Fleet Maintenance and the Warehouse.
In reviewing possible specifications, staff determined that the replacement for Unit 910 was ideally
suited to be an electric vehicle. Presently, Unit 910 is used for short, stop-and-start, local trips
totaling less than one hundred (100) miles per day. Such "cold start" driving situations are
responsible for more air pollution than a similar car driven non-stop on a 100-mile commute.
Currently the use of altemative fuel vehicles by municipalities is voluntary. Under the Federal
Energy Policy Act of 1990, federal and state fleets are required to convert to alternative fuels.
Municipal governments are exempt until 2003. Beginning in 2003, the federal policy will require
municipalities to incorporate an increasing percentage of alternative fuel vehicles into their fleets.
By anticipating implementation of the Federal Energy Policy Act, the City of Rancho Cucamonga
will provide several societal benefits. The City' s experience with electric vehicles will help increase
public acceptance by:

· Testing technological advances that will ultimately result in vehicles with
driving ranges, increased reliability, and lower life cycle costs.
· Demonstrating the environmental benefits of zero emission vehicles.
greater
Electric vehicle technology is evolving quickly. In fact the 1999 model year vehicles now feature
advanced nickel-metal hydride (NiMH) batteries which provide a longer driving range, faster
charging times, and increased durability. Prior to the 1999 model year electric vehicles used
traditional lead-acid batteries.
Since the technology is new, and the vehicles are essentially experimental, electric vehicle
manufacturers only offer the vehicles through three year closed end leases. The vehicles are also
only available from manufacturer certified dealers. Prices are set by the manufacturer and not
negotiable by the dealers. To encourage leasing, the manufacturers and the Southern California Air
Quality Management District (SCAQMD) offer a $500 lease credit. Ford also offers a free Power
Control Station (retail value of $1,875) as an incentive.
Presently only two manufacturers produce electric versions of their light duty pickup trucks -
Chevrolet (S- 10) and Ford (Ranger). Staff reviewed specifications and lease terms for both pickups
and found them similar except for their warranties and incentives.
Chevrolet offers a 3-year/36,000 mile vehicle and battery pack limited warranty; they also charge
$0.20 per mile for mileage in excess of 36,000 miles. Chevrolet's Power Charging Station (PCS)
is an additional $1,995 for the indoor model and $ 3,285 for the outdoor version (installation is
extra).
Ford's warranty is a 3-year bumper-to-bumper (parts and labor) no mileage limit warranty with the
exception of tires, brakes and body work, Ford covers all maintenance at no cost to the City. Fritts
Ford is the nearest certified dealer. In addition to their superior warranty, Ford will supply the
indoor/outdoor PCS at no cost. The installation of the PCS is extra and provided through an Edison
Central authorized electrical contractor. This installation is estimated at under $500 and will be paid
for through existing Public Works operations and maintenance funds.

Inclusion of the Rancho Cncamon~a Chamber of Commerce's Business
Expo in the City's Founders Day Celebration
RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended that the City Council approve the inclusion of the
Rancho Cucamonga Chamber of Commerce's Business Expo in the City's Founders Day
Celebration.
BACKGROUND/ANALYSIS: The 1998 Founders Day Celebration will be held on Saturday,
November 14 at the Rancho Cucamonga Epicenter and Sports Complex. Currently the City's
Founders Day Celebration includes the parade awards ceremony, a pancake breakfast, an art and
craft fair (includes booth space for artists and crafters, non-profit organizations' display exhibits or
games of chance, in-home businesses such as Tupperware, Mary Kay cosmetics or Princess House
crystal and commercial businesses), a certified farmers market, a car and truck show, games and
rides for children, continuous entertainment and food vendors. Booth space is sold for a nominal
fee which is set by booth size -- $15.00-$30.00 for art and craft vendors, $10.00 or less for non-profit
organizations and $35.00-$50.00 for commercial businesses.
Traditionally, the Rancho Cucamonga Chamber of Commerce has held a Business Expo as one of
their two primary special events each year. The purpose of the Business Expo was twofold; one, to
raise funds for the Chamber; and two, to provide a venue where community residents could learn
about their business community. Last Fall the City was approached by the Rancho Cucamonga
Chamber of Commerce regarding the possibility of including the Chamber's Business Expo as part
of the City's 1997 Founders Day Celebration. After some discussion, the Chamber of Commerce
decided not to change the focus nor the format of their three day event and held their Business Expo
at the Exchange Building on the same weekend as our Founders Day Parade and Celebration.
City staff was approached again this year by the Chamber and was asked to consider including their
Business Expo as a part of our Founders Day Celebration. The Chamber stated that this year they
would like to concentrate on having a one day event which would not be a major fund raiser for their
organization. Rather, the event would provide a community service to residents, allowing them to
be able to find out about their local business community. The Chamber of Commerce has stated that
they were willing to utilize the City's fee structure for booth space, which is substantially lower than
Mayor and Members of the City Council
October 7, 1998
Page 2
the Chamber's previous fees, for participants in the Business Expo should they be allowed to be
included as part of the City's Founders Day Celebration. Should City Council approve this request,
the Chamber of Commerce would focus solely on securing commercial business participation in the
Business Expo while the City would focus on securing participation from art and craft vendors, non-
profit organizations and in-home businesses for the Celebration. The Chamber has requested that
revenues raised by the Chamber through the selling of commercial business booths remain with the
Chamber.
FISCAL IMPACT: Historically, the majority of City booth space sold for the Founders Day
Celebration is sold to art and craft vendors. Total revenue from last years Celebration attributed to
commercial businesses totaled less than $300.00 for 7 booths. Should Council approve this request
it is anticipated that approximately 50 booths could be accommodated on the outfield of
northwestern softball field (currently not being used for the Founders Day Celebration) and could
result in an approximate net revenue to the Chamber of $2,000. The inclusion of the Rancho
Cucamonga Chamber of Commerce's Business Expo as a part of the City's Founders Day
Celebration could provide an enhancement to the City's Celebration. By combining the two events
together into one venue, we could reduce the confusion of having two community special events held
on the same weekend at different locations. This appears to be a good opportunity for a partnership
between the City and the Chamber which will benefit both organizations. In addition, it would allow
for community residents already in attendance at the City's Founders Day Celebration to find out
more about their local business community.

SUBJECT:
CONSIDERATION OF THE PARK AND RECREATION COMMISSION'S
RECOMMENDATION REGARDING AMENDING THE RESIDENCY
REOUIREMENTS FOR YOUTH TRAVELING TEAMS
RECOMMENDATION:
The Sports Advisory Committee and the Park and Recreation Commission unanimously recommend
a revision to the "Athletic Field Allocation Policy" for youth sports travel teams. The proposed new
policy would require youth travel team organizations to have a minimum of seventy (70%) percent
Rancho Cucamonga residents in order to be eligible for field allocations. Each team must possess
a minimum of fifty (50%) percent Rancho Cucamonga residents, as well. In addition, no travel team
organization can be granted field space which traditionally is allocated to other non-travel team
youth sports organizations.
BACKGROUND/ANALYSIS:
Current policy for allocation of fields requires that youth sports groups maintain an eighty (80%)
percent residency requirement in order to qualify for Group 2 status, which pays no fees for field use.
Listed below are the current definitions of user groups and their associated field usage fees:
Group 1: City of Rancho Cucamonga sponsored and co-sponsored events; other
governmental agencies serving Rancho Cucamonga residents.
Group 2: Not-for-profit, civic, athletic, social organizations which are located and based in
the City whose management is not paid and organizations sponsoring a public forum or
candidate' s information night.
Group 3: Not-for-profit, civic, athletic, and social and religious organizations which has paid
management and are located and based in the City.
Group 4: City resident private party activity. City resident employee organizations. City
resident political candidate use for fund raisers; City resident college organizations and
committees; work parties and social events.
Mayor and Members of the City Council
Residency Requirements for Youth Traveling Teams
October 7, 1998

Group 5: City resident commercial, business, profit-making, non-resident not-for-profit, civic
and social organizations, non-resident colleges, their organizations and committees, non-
resident private party activity, non-resident employee associations.
· Group 6: Non-resident commercial, business, and profit-making organizations.
Listed below are applicable fees for user groups:
Softball field and Soccer fields (per field)
Organized Leagues and Toumaments
Group 1-2 Group 3-4 Group 5-6
None $20/2 hr & less $50/2 hr & less
$35/4 hr & less $90/4 hr & less
$65/A11 day $140/All day
While those organizations which conduct recreation level programs within the City have been
successful at maintaining the eighty (80%) percent residency requirement, traveling teams in youth
soccer and softball have had more difficulty meeting this requirement. Travel teams are teams which
are typically a lot more competitive in nature and which compete against teams from outside the
City. A number of months ago the Park and Recreation Commission set out to develop a
recommended new policy governing the allocation of fields to youth sports travel teams. The Park
and Recreation Commission sent the item to the Sports Advisory Committee for review and
recommendation. Over the past few months, the Park and Recreation Commission and the Sports
Advisory Committee have worked together to develop and refine a recommended policy for travel
teams. Initial discussions resulted in complex formulas which promised to be difficult to understand
and enforce. The recent work by the Commission and Committee revolved around streamlining the
recommended policy.
The proposed new residency requirement has many benefits.
It creates a manageable and enforceable residency requirement for youth travel team
organizations. It is pragmatic and encourages the submittal of accurate rosters.
The recommendation does not impact field availability for other youth sports groups.
This recommendation only affects a small minority of teams (50 out of 750 teams).
The overall majority (non-travel teams) will still abide by the eighty (80%) percent
residency requirement.
The proposed policy assists the youth travel team organizations by dealing positively
with the residency challenges that are different than those of non-travel team
organizations.
Mayor and Members of the City Council
Residency Requirements for Youth Traveling Teams
October 7, 1998
Page3
o
°
Travel team organizations are composed mostly of older children. The proposed
policy fits more in line with the City's residency requirement of sixty (60%) percent
for adult organizations.
The policy ensures that organizations which use City fields are still comprised of a
majority of residents. A league residency requirement of seventy (70%) percent for
youth travel teams will only result in approximately one more non-resident player on
each team. By mandating a minimum of fifty (50%) residents per team, the policy
ensures that there will not be teams with a minority of residents using City fields.
The proposal provides a safeguard for all existing non-travel team organizations from
expanded field needs due to travel teams organization expansion or new travel team
organization applicants.
This recommendation is comparable to other cities. Cities which have residency
requirements average fifty (50%) percent residency requirements for all youth sports
organizations.
Staff concurs with the Park and Recreation Commission's recommendation and feels that the
recommended policy will be a positive remedy to a long-standing challenge.

SEVENTY- TWO (72) HOUR TOW NOTIFICATIONS
The issue of the towing of vehicles parked on City-maintained streets in violation
of the City's seventy-two-hour policy ordinance has been questioned by a
member of our community.
L History of City Ordinance
The history of the current 72-hour notice is as follows:
October 1978: City of Rancho Cucamonga passes City Ordinance #39.
This Ordinance allows for the towing of vehicles under County Code
Section 52. O119 ('Removal After 72 Hours).
danuary 16, 1980: Interoffice memorandum from City Engineer Lloyd
Hubbs to the city Council. This correspondence recommends the
amendment of City Ordinance #39 to include City Ordinance Section 12-
12. This amendment was necessary since Article XX of City Ordinance
#39 was in conflict with the enforcement issue of the 72-hour towing issue
(See Attachment '54 ~.
C. February 6, 1980: City Council passes Ordinance #39-A which included
'~ection 12.12 - Use of Streets for Storage of Vehicles Prohibited
(a) No person who owns or has possession, custody, or control of any
vehicle shall park such vehicle upon any street or alley for more than
a consecutive period of seventy-two (72) hours.
(b) In the event a vehicle is parked or left standing upon a street in excess
of a consecutive period of seventy-two (72) hours, the Sheriff or any
member of the Highway Patrol of the State of California may remove
said vehicle from the street in the manner and subject to the
requirements of the Vehicle Code." (See Attachment 'l~ ~

L History of City Ordinance (Continued)
November 18, 1987: City Council adopts Ordinance #330. This
Ordinance creates City Municipal Code Section '70.44.140 -
Iramobilization and/or removal of vehicles from streets, highways, of~
street parking facilities, and handicapped parking spaces. City employees
designated by the city Manager are hereby authorized to remove vehicles
parked on public streets, highways, off-street parking facilities, and
handicapped parking spaces in accordance with the provisions of
California Vehicle Code Sections 22651, 22651.3, and 22652, or their
successor provisions. Said City employees are further hereby authorized
to immobilize certain vehicles parked on public streets and highways in
accordance with California Vehicle Code Section 22651.7, and any
successor provision. (See Attachment
II. Enforcement of Rancho Cucamonga City Municipal Code 10.44.130
The above City Municipal Code is enforced per California Vehicle Code
Section 22651(K) (See Attachment '~) ~. (Also included is California Vehicle
Code Section 360 which defines a 'Highway "to include a street.)
III. Rancho Cucamonga Police Department Procedure for 72-hour Tow
Violations
The Rancho Cucamonga Police Department maintains a very proactive
response to the 72-hour parking enforcement issue. The Department utilizes
three of its Community Service Specialists for basic non-emergency, in-the-
field police calls. These calls for service include calls for reports of non-in
progress property crimes, non-injury traffic accidents, and parking
violations.
The Community Service Specialist position was created to augment our patrol
and traffic operations. These positions have become very effective and
efficient in our City. When a Community Service Specialist locates a vehicle
that has an appearance of being abandoned (unwashed, dirt under vehicle,
Cob webs, etc.). He/she will attach a 'T/ehicle Check/Parking Warning "form
to the vehicle's antenna or windshield (see Attachment '~7 ~.
This Vehicle Check/Parking Warning notifies the owner that their vehicle is in
violation of the 72-hour parking restriction. The tire of the vehicle is marked
and the mileage on the odometer is recorded. The bottom portion of the
warning tag is maintained by the officer.

III.
Rancho Cucamonga Police Department Procedure for 72-hour Tow
Violations
(Continued)
If the owner of the vehicle moves his/her vehicle after being given the 72-
hour notice, the Vehicle Check/Parking Warning is disregarded by the
issuing officer.
Vehicles that are not moved within the 72-hour timeframe could legally
be towed. In an effort to provide quality service to the citizens of Rancho
Cucamonga, the Police Department has implemented a policy that
requires an additional '72-Hour Final Notice " notification form be taped
to the vehicle window (see Attachment '7z ~. Information on vehicles that
remain illegally parked after the second 72-hour period are forwarded to
the Police Department's Traffic Division.
,~ sworn Officer from our Traffic Division will respond to evaluate the
vehicle and tow if necessary.
IV. Tow Hearings
Citizens who are in disagreement with their vehicle being towed have the
ability to request a 'Tow Hearing "with our Traffic Supervisor. Tow
hearings are conducted on Monday through Thursday at the Police
Department.
If a complainant has a justifiable reason or a mistake was made on the
part of the Police Department, storage fees and loss of vehicle use claims
can (and have been) awarded to the complaining party.
Conclusion
The City of Rancho Cucamonga has the legal authority to tow vehicles
under the 72-hour procedure (California Vehicle Code 22651(K), City
Ordinance #330). We have extended the 72-hour notice to 144 hours (six
(6) days) before the vehicle is actually towed. Vehicles are not towed until
evaluated by a sworn Traffic Officer.
The purpose of the 72-hour tow policy is to assist with visual blight in the
City. The Rancho Cucamonga Police Department is committed to keeping
our City as beautiful as possible.
SEVENTY-TWO (72) HOUR TOW NOTIFICATIONS
September 29, 1998

Our current city ordinance and enforcement procedures are consistent
with other California cities and counties throughout the state.
We believe that the 72-hour tow policy is necessary and should remain as
a City ordinance.

Report from the Park and Recreation Commission Ret, ardin~ the Potential
Establishment of a Youth Advisory Board
RECOMMENDATION.' It is recommended that the City Council provide direction to the Park
and Recreation Commission regarding the potential establishment of a youth advisory board or a
community advisory group composed of non-profit, community based organizations.
BACKGROUND/ANALYSIS: At the August 19, 1998, City Council meeting, Council requested
that the Park and Recreation Commission study the issue of establishing a youth advisory board and
provide a recommendation to the City Council conceming whether such a group should be formed.
The Park and Recreation Commission discussed this item at their September 17, 1998, Commission
meeting. Initial response from the Commission regarding the concept of establishing a youth
advisory group was positive. The Commission addressed the idea of establishing such a group to
broaden the awareness of existing programs available to the youth of our community and to provide
a forum for the sharing of ideas to foster a greater atmosphere of cooperation and communication
between the City and youth focused community based organizations. As discussion continued, the
idea of broadening the scope of such a group was addressed. The Commission expressed an interest
in broadening the scope of this proposed group to include all age groups and to address a more
comprehensive scope of services which might include social, educational, recreational and cultural
opportunities available for community members.
The Executive Director from Rancho Cucamonga Family YMCA was in attendance at this meeting
and provided their thoughts to the Commission on the concept of establishing more of a community
advisory group. The YMCA was extremely supportive of the development of such a group. It was
stated that such a group did not have to be City sponsored. Rather the City could be instrumental
in calling a meeting of community based organizations which provide community service, providing
meeting space and participating in the meetings but not required to staff or supervise the group. It
was pointed out that similar groups such as the Adult Protective Services providers through the
County of San Bernardino currently meet through a similarly designed group structure. It was also

mentioned that structuring the group in such a manner, rather than as a subcommittee of the Park and
Recreation Commission or the City itself, would actually reduce the impact to staff time and
resources. This would also create more of an equal representation between of the all groups
involved.
Staff would support the Commission's concept of assisting in the organization of a community group
in lieu of an official City managed committee. This concept appears to encourage stronger
relationships between all agencies involved.
The Commission has requested that staff present to the City Council this concept for a broader focus
of a community advisory group composed of non-profit, community based organizations for
Council's review, comment and direction. If the City Council supports either of the concepts
discussed in this report, the Commission would request the opportunity to further refine a
recommendation on the selected option.
