MLLE—ST
For a through highway and speed zone on Jasper Street from 19th Street north to
Banyon Street, in the vicinity of Rancho Cucamonga.
DATA
Satisfaction of the volume guideline (3) and any other two of the following
criteria constitutes adequate guidelines for speed zoning.
1. The subject road must be classified as a primary road in the
County Road System.
2. The subject road must be, in effect or by resolution, a through
highway.
3. (a) To increase a prima facie 25 MPH speed limit, the subject
road must have a traffic volume of 1,000 vehicles per day.
(b) To decrease the 55 MPH maximum speed limit, the subject
road must have a traffic volume of 2,000 vehicles per day.
4. The subject road must be a road where traffic accident records
and a traffic engineering investigation show that there is a
demonstrated problem susceptible to correction by speed zoning.
Because the STOP sign causes a substantial inconvenience to motorists, it should
be used only where warranted. A STOP sign way be warranted at an intersection where
one or more of the following conditions exist.
1. Intersection of a less important road with a main road where
application of the normal right -of -way rule is unduly hazardous.
2. Street entering a through highway or street.
3. Unsignalized intersection in a signalized area.

Traffic Volumes:
• Pag04
Other intersections where a combination of high speed, restricted
view and serious accident record indicates a need for control
by the STOP sign.
Jasper Street north of Orange 361 vehicles per day.
Jasper Street north of Leman 284 vehicles per day.
The section south of Orange Street is currently under construction.
A traffic engineering investigation including special traffic counts shown above,
an evaluation of past records of vehicle conflict and a field review of the road section
was made. The results of this investigation indicate that the minimum criteria for
establishing two -way stop controls (through highway) or a speed zone are not met on this
road section at this time.
RECOMMENDATIONS
After review of these data and photographs taken along the road section, it is the
opinion of the Committee that sufficient justification does not exist to recommend the
installation of the requested traffic controls at this time. Therefore the Committee
recommends that this request be denied.
Based on the construction activities in the area, the Committee does recommend
that this road section be kept under observation to determine traffic control needs as the
development of the area progresses.

REQUEST
To establish Su ®it Avenue and Duncan Canyon Road as a through highway from
Etiwanda Avenue easterly to Citrus Avenue, in the vicinity of Rancho Cucamonga.
DATA
Since the construction of State Highway 15, the Summit Avenue - Duncan Canyon
Road route has become a local collector providing access to major north /south
roadways and the Highland Avenue interchange on Highway 15. The resultant change
in traffic patterns now justifies stop controls against several of the roadways
entering the Summit Avenl - Duncan Canyon Road route.
RECOMMENDATIONS
Based on these data and the service the roadway provides, the Committee
recommends that the Summit Avenue - Duncan Canyon Road route be established as a
through highway from Etiwanda Avenue easterly to Citrus Avenue, in the vicinity
of Rancho Cucamonga.
CITY COUNCIL ACTION NECESSARY UPON APPROVAL
To establish Suamit Avenue as a through highway from Etiwanda Avenue east to
Duncan Canyon Road and to establish Duncan Canyon Road as a through highway from

Memo: March 10, 1978
From: Lauren Wasserman
To: City Council
Subject: Deferred Compensation Retirement Plan
The staff has contacted the International City Management Association
to obtain specific details concerning the organization's Deferred Compen-
sation Retirement Plan for employees of state and local government. The
Deferred Compensation Retirement Plan recommended for Council adoption is
the International City Management Association Retirement Corporation.
The ICMA program is a non - profit, tax - exempt plan which was specifically
designed as a supplementary retirement benefit for public employees in
state and local government who are considered to be mobile administrative
or professional management personnel. In the City of Rancho Cucamonga,
the adoption of the special fringe benefit will be extremely useful in
the future for reinforcing "management identity" as well as for recognizing
exceptional managerial performance.
We should note first of all, there is no maximum or minimum contribution
required of either the City or the employee. Employee contributions are
made by reducing current salary; i.e. deferring its payment until retirement.
The City's contributions, if any, are made by increasing current salary,
again deferring payment until retirement. The amount to be deferred may
be totally derived either from the employee's reduction of current salary
or from the increase of salary by the employer, or from any combination
of the two. In addition, the plan offers the advantage of being portable;
that is, it may be transferred if an employee moves from one community
to the other in much the same fashion as the Public Employee Retirement
System. A further advantage, of course, is that contrary to PERS, an
employee may move from one state to another while maintaining his mem-
bership in the deferred compensation plan.
Income Tax Benefits
The salary amounts which are deferred are not subject to income taxes
until they are actually received, usually at a time when the employee is
in a lower tax bracket.
Earnings on Investment
The Retirement Corporation opens an account for each employer and sub -
accounts to identify the funds set aside for each participating employee.
The funds deposited by the employer are invested and each sub - account is
credited with its proportionate share of the earnings. All earnings, as
well as all deposits, accrue to the ultimate benefit of the employee. From
March 1, 1974 through February 1, 1975 the earnings paid on investments
was 9.73 %.
Memo: March 10, 1918• •
Page 2
From: Lauren Wasserman
To: City Council
Investments in California General Law cities are restricted to the
investment of a maximum of 25% of assets in common stocks. Therefore,
a maximum of 25% of the deferred compensation may be invested in the
Variable Fund which includes equity securities such as common stocks,
corporate bonds, real estate, U.S. Treasury Bills and other securities
of the government. Participants in the program also have a choice of
investing a portion of their deferred compensation in the Fixed Income
Fund (corporate bonds and notes, real estate, and securities of the U.S.
Government). This fund offers security of the value of each dollar,
while providing for stable annual growth. Specific details concerning
the various investment policies and procedures are contained in the
materials attached to this report.
Investment Fees
The Retirement Corporation has only two modest fees. The first, an
administrative fee of 3% is charged against all funds when they are
received. The second fee is that paid to the Retirement Corporation's
investment agent. These fees are the lowest of any plan available in
the public sector on a national basis.
Eligibility For Participation
Initially, it would be our suggestion that eligibility to participate
in the deferred compensation program be extended to all designated
management personnel.
Adoption of the Program
In order to implement the plan, the City Council must pass a resolution
adopting the ICMA plan and authorizing the signing of documents by the
appropriate City officials. In addition, an agreement must be signed
between the employer and the employee which specifies amounts to be set
aside and invested for the employee's retirement or disability, or for
his beneficiary in the event of death. The employer also enters into a
separate agreement with the Retirement Corporation providing for it to
serve as an agent in carrying out the plan and to serve as a trustee for
all accumulated funds.
The deferred retirement concept is certainly not new to the West End.
The cities of Ontario, Chino and Montclair joined the ICMA Deferred
Compensation Program in order to provide additional benefits to designated
management personnel. We think it would be to the long -range benefit
of the City as well as its management employees to join the program at
this time. The additional benefit will, in our view, help to not only
retain competent management personnel, but also to attract top caliber
management staff in the future.
If you have questions or would like additional information concerning
our proposal, please contact me or Ken.

SUBJECT: Purchase of Dictating Equipment
Authorization is requested for the City Manager to purchase two portable
dictation units and two transcribers to be used by the City Manager to
improve the staff's efficiency in preparing agendas and reports for the
Planning Commission and City Council.
While it is probable that additional dictation equipment will he needed as
now employees are hired, it is recommended that the Council authorize the
purchase of only two transcriber units at $332.00 each and two portable
dictation units at $143.00 each at this time. The total cost for the
equipment will be approximately $],050.
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the staff he authorized to purchase two portable

T0: City Council of Rancho Cucamonga
SUBJECT: Request Authorization to Recruit /'
and Mire Permanent City Employees cl __
In order to begin dealing immediately with the critical problems which face
the City of Rancho Cucamonga, it is recommended that the City Council
approve the filling of the following full -time positions as soon as
possible.
A. Director of Community Development, salary $2,000 - $2,431 monthly.
It is anticipated that the Director of Community Development will be re-
sponsible for not only the planning activities of the City, but also, the
supervision of the building inspection activitcs beginning in July. The
proposed starting salary for the position is comparable to the amount
f currently paid by neighboring communities. The salary should he adequate
�j to attract extremely competent personnel.
4
8, Planning Assistant, salary $1,300 - $1,581 monthly. It is proposed
that the Planning Assistant be employed to work under the direction of the
Director of Community Development to collect and tabulate data and to assist
in the preparation of reports relating to land -use and other planning
activities. The Planning Assistant will report to the Director of Community
Development. This position requires a minimum of one year's e.tperience with
a Planning Department.
C. Assistant to the City Manager, salary $1,450 - $1,763 monthly.
It is proposed that the City Council authorize the filling of this position as
soon as possible, it is anticipated that the Assistant to the City Manager
wilt be involved in much of the day -to -Jay activity of the City. Among the
typical duties will be to assist the manager in the preparation of reports
for the City Council, handling personnel and employer - employee relations
matters -- including recruitment and hiring of permanent employees in the
preparation for the new fiscal year. in addition, the new employee will
assist the City Manager in coordinating the various intergovernmental activities
and programs which involve the City.

City Council of Rancho Cucamonga

While it would be highly desirable to prepare job specifications prior to
filling each of the above positions, the City is in immediate need of
professional staff assistance. We do anticipate that job specifications
will be prepared for each of the above positions as time permits. Because
of the complex issues facing our community, it is recommended that the
City attempt to recruit the highest caliber personnel. While the proposed
salaries certainly are attractive, they are comparable to cities of similar
geographical area and size. All positions will be advertised in the
appropriate professional publications in order to attract highly quzlified
employees.
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Manager be authorized to recruit immediately
for the position of Director of Community Development, Planning Assistant
and Assistant to the City Manager. Because of the time delay involved in
recruiting, it is anticipated that the new employees will probably not be
reporting for work until mid -May of this year.

Chairman, Herman Rempe I, and Vice Chairman, Jorge Garcia, will present the
recommendation for a Planning Consultant to complete the General Plan to a
point where the City of Rancho Cucamonga can take over planning and community
development functions not later than July 1, 1978. They have several proposals
from six consultants, and have talked to four consultants. Attached to this
report is a brief summary of the two consultants that they considered could
do the job.
The proposed agreement with John Blayney Associates is the unanimous choice
of the Planning Commission after many, many hours of study and investigation.
I have conferred with your City Manager, Lauren Wasserman, and he concurs.
The contract price of $37,500 is maximum fee for the first phase. However,
it is contemplated that the same consultant would be employed to work with
the Community Development Director and Planning Assistant to finish the job.
Hopefully, this second phase could be financed with Community Development
Block Grant funds from the Federal Government.

Dear Ken:
Nov, that I've had a chance to meet with Ken Topping, Dianne Guzman, and
Ann Finen of Me San Bernardino County Planning Deprrtment and to ree,ie'.s•
most of the work they have completed, I'm nble to sugecst a v;ork scope and
to estimate the cost if our firm were selected to assist the City with its plan-
ning program.
We understand that the County Planning Department has a remaining commit-
ment of one -half person -year assistance to the Geeeral Plan program. Ken
Topping assures me that the individual ass'gned could be a person with exper-
ionce comparable to Ann Finan, although Ann is tint mailable. Our view is
that it would be most efficient for the City to use this type of nssistance, rot
graphics production time, even if more graphics time were made available.
Because "improving traffic flow" is a prio•ity concern as indicated by the'Pri-
Community Questionnaire, and the future of the Foothill Freeway is io doubt
we believe Ceneral Plan circulation propo,-.niv roust be bused on a strong traffic
analysis. Derisions on streot cross - sections and alignments in the next several
years will determine the "ultimate'$ treffimvnys system in many portions of
the City. Our understnndirg from the 'Traffic Section of tile, Comity Public
Works Agnecy is that they will provide. current traffic counts wind that n traffic
model capable of testing future land use and traffic ways alternatives is being
developed.
We recommend that De Leuw, Cather & Company, Engineers, be retained as
a subcontractor to us or directly by the City for nssimance in preparnt ion of

OUTLINE PROGRAM AND SCHEDULE
The following proposal is consistent with your objective of having a General
Plan rendy for hearings by June 30, at which time you expect the City Plan-
ning Director to start work. County work completed to ente consists of it rea-
sonably complete data base (with the exception of traffic data) but does not
include any plan design or analysis of alternatives.
General Plan
We propose that in the five months available effort should focus on preparation
of a General Plan that is not detailed or specific on all points, but one that
reflects the policies of the City Council and Planning Commission and carefully
prepared so that residents, landowners. and developers will not be misled. Em-
phnsis should be placed on the three existing urbanizing communities adjoining
lands likely to have urban services available soon. We assume thnt amendments
will he needed soon as the Public Facility flan and other elements are added,
but these should be refinements, not basic changes in direction.
To prepare the General Plan in five months we suggest that our policy ginidance
come directly from the City Council and Planning Commission. A Citizens'
Advisory Committee could be used, but if it is to operate other than on a tv,o
or three all- day - Saturdny Community Forum basis, we doubt that the time sched-
ule can be met.
The General Plan would include the following items:
a. Land use
b. Traffieways (circulation)
c. Public Facilities (general locutions and standards for parks, open space,
schools, fire stations, City administrative center)
d. Design principles (drawing on Find ndding to work completed by the
County Planing Department)
e. Environmental Impnet Report (EIR)i required prior to adoption
f. Principles fn, phasing of development (to he prepared as specific policy
for adoption oftvr General Pbm adoption)
g. Evaluation of work needed end time schedule for preparation end
adoption of ether Stnte nnndntrd elements (Ilnusing, (Inn,o'valion,
Open Spare, Svismic Safely, Noiza, Scenic Ilighwoys, Safety). In
many inslncces the existing San hormvdino County Plan elements
my be suitable as is or with minor changes.

Zoning Ordinance
The zoning ordinpnee could be started us soon the the General Plnn is readv
for heerings. The amount of work can very greatly depending on the amount
of change from ourrent regulations desired, possible variations in development
policies in Alta Loma, @tivmndn, and Cucamonga. on(! the level of detail or
regulation contemplated by the City administration and the residents.
During the Inst two years we have spent 1,400 horns completing n now zoning
ordinance for Polo Alto. We estimate that a Itnncho Cucamor —it ordinance
could be prepared in 750 to 1,000 hours. At no nverago rate of $33 per hour
plus direct costs, the cost would be $30,000- $40,000. Since most zoning changes
are likely to be in connection with subdivision approval, wo believe the zoning,
suhdivisicn review, and environmental review pi oorsses should be closely ro-
lr.led.

Mr. Ken Hunter • -4- • January 26, 1978
recent experience in other southern California communities facing similar
problems (both those that wish to restriet growth and those that do not) sug-
gests the following content of a Public Facilities Plan:
— Projection of annual development rate that can be aeeomodated.
— Allocation of growth to communities within Rancho Cucamonga, based
on price and type of housing likely to be built to conformity with the
General Plan. The need to maintain a competitive housing market
will be a major cons;deration.
— Preparation of a phasing policy (which may or may not be mapped).
The recommended policy will seek to minimize public costs through
a compact development or to transfer premium costs to developments
seekirg approval in hard to serve locations.
— Establishment of a mechanism for evaluating development proposals.
County Ordinance No. 2179 (Interim Development Review Procedures)
would he a starting point. Our work for Simi Valley follows a similar
concept.
— General Plan proposals for schools, parks, open space, fire stations,
and other public buildings would be refined and related to the pro-
posed development phasing. Such questions as size, cost, means of
financing, and timing would be addressed.
Our preliminary estimate of the cost of the Public Facilities Plan is $25,000-
$40,000 (550 -1,200 hours at $32 per hour, plus direct costs). if the City bas
professionnl staff time available in nddition to review time, the consultant
cost could be reduced.
WORKING ARRANGEMENTS
We would work on an hourly basis, plus direct costs. Travel time is not charged
and secretarial services ore included in the hourly rates for professional time.

QUALIFICATIONS
My letter of January 13 listed similar ene recent assignments. Currently we
are working on the Redlonds Growth Management Study with CSRI (Environ-
mental Systems Research Institute) of Redlands. (Reference: Robert Mitchell,
City Manager, (714) 793 -2641) We note that the County's land use data for
Rancho Cucamonga is based on P.SRI data. If additional mapping of land use
or environmental data becomes necessary, we recommend using RSRI rather
than our own staff because of their expertise in environmental sciences and
their cost - saving computerized mapping capability.
We are preparing a Public Facilities Plan for Oceanside, following a series
of working papers dealing with the question of phasing growth. (Reference:
Lou Lightfoot, Planning Director (714) 433 -000)
The Simi Valley Cost - Benefit Study, t976, was designed to measure and balance
fiscal, economic, social, and phvsical consequences of development decisions
in P. city that is somewhat similar to Rancho Cucnmonga, bet now is 70 percent
developed. This project was judged by an AIP/IChLI ey:duntion panel vs one
of the four outstamlin, ex, moles of innovative planning and manosgpment tech-
niques among 400 federally filameed 11701" projects. (Reference: Ernie Glover,

H.K. Hunter, City Manager
City of Rancho Cucamonga
P. 0. Box 793
Rancho Cucamonga, CA 91730
Dear Mr. Hunter:
We are pleased to respond to your letter of January 9, 1978. From the
letter and our subsequent discussion, we understand that the new City
of Rancho Cucamonga desires consultant services to prepare a General
Plan for the City. We understand that much basic work and research
has already been completed by the County planning staff, and that full
advantage should be taken of this work. At the same time, it is clear
that Rancho Cucamonga desires its awn plan, reflecting the needs and
desires of its citizens, and not merely a carbon copy of the County's
plan.
Qualification of the Firm
We feel that Williams, Platzek and Mocine is uniquely qualified to
perform this work for you. In the seventeen years that the firm has
been in existence we have completed more than thirty -five general
plans for cities, counties and metropolitan regions in western United
States. Among these have been several new communities. Perhaps the
most relevant example is Fremont, where Mr. Williams prepared the
original General Plan while a member of Pacific Planning and Research,
and where our firm was recalled some years later for important updating
and new work, including an urban design and subdivision study which is
enclosed. Fremont is of interest because of the similarity between its
situation in the mid 1950's and that of Rancho Cucamonga today. Fremont
was created, as you know, around the five southern Alameda County
villages of Irvington, Centerville, Miles, Warm Springs and Mission San
Jose. The people's motivation for the formation of the new community
was to gain control over their own destiny, particularly through taking
over their own city planning function. r4 fundamental objective of
Fremont's planning policy was to forge the five shall towns into one
new city, and not simply a confederation of towns. That objective has
been fully accomplished in the succeeding years, thanks in no small
part to the decisions made in that first General Plan which Mr, Williams
prepared. Williams, Platzek and Mocine has also had extensive experience

in growth management which we understand is an important issue for
Rancho Cucamonga. Our pioneering growth management system for Petaluma,
as you know, was finally upheld through action of the U,S. Supreme
Court. For your interest, I am including copies of a recent study we
completed for the City of Vacaville and also an evaluation and update
just finished for the City of Petaluma.
Approach to the Preparation of the City__of Rancho Cucamonga General Plan
In general our approach to the Rancho Cucamonga work would be as follows:
1. Reconnaissance. In this phase we would familiarize ourselves
rapidly with the existing situation. This would include:
a. Field study of the area for its physical characteristics
including topographic character, land use, traffic systems,
open space system, etc.
b. Review of available research data and plans including
material prepared by San Bernardino County, SCAG and the
State.
c. Discussions with key officials of Rancho Cucamonga and
San Bernardino County, citizen leaders, and group
representatives.
2. Determination of Goals and Identification of Critical Issues. On the
basis of the understanding developed through the reconnaissance, a
report would be prepared for limited circulation and review, setting
forth the community's goals, and defining the principal planning
problems which the General Plan should address. Goals and related
policies should be rooted in the citizens' needs and desires, and
respond to the critical problems of the community. The goals and
policies of today's General Plan must be explicit and meaningful in
order to be of real value in governmental decision making. The pious
platitudes which stood for goals in the plans of a decade or two ago
are no longer acceptable to either public officials or citizens.
One way to make goals more significant is to link them rather directly
to the principal issues which face the city.
3. Preparation of the General Plan Document Consisting of Text, Diagrams,
and Maps. It appears that the document should have at least two
important functions:
a. To serve as the mandated land use and circulation elements
of the City of Rancho Cucamonga General Plan.
b. To provide a frame of reference for incorporating the relevant
sections of other mandatory elements such as housing, safety,
seismic safety, open space, etc. which have been prepared by
the County. This process will permit the evaluation of each
County - prepared element to determine its responsiveness to the
City of Rancho Cucamonga's goals and policies and its compati-
bility with the City's land use and circulation elements. Some
modification of County - prepared elements may be required.
H.K.Hunter
18 January 1978
page 3
The General Plan should be structured in such a way as to facilitate
the addition of new elements - such as an urban design element,
for example - and to encourage the regular maintenance and updating
of the entire body of goals, policies, elements, and special plans.
The General Plan must also serve as the organizing tool for all
these parts, providing for their cross referencing and correlation,
and insuring their internal consistency.
A second important characteristic of today's general plan is that
it is much more programmatic than earlier plans used to be. The
plan does not rest with providing a long -range vision of the city's
development, but concerns itself with the timing and strategies
necessary to move at an efficient and steady pace toward the
long -term goals. Thus, economic base studies, capital improvement
programming and growth management systems become parts of the general
plan.
We have been working on these concepts for several years and incor-
porating them in the plans we've prepared. We call this approach
the General Plan System because the phrase suggests the idea of a
set of different but interconnected parts all working together to
guide and control the city's development.
Working Arrangements
Should we he selected for this work, I would be in principal charge,
with backup and assistance from Mr. Williams. We are able to begin
immediately upon being selected and believe that the essential work
could be completed by June 30th. The basis of employment could be
a per diem as suggested in your letter, or if we are selected, we
would be pleased to explore with you the possibility of a fixed
price contract in order to see which arrangement would be mutually
more beneficial. Until we have actually seen the community, and
evaluated the data which the County has prepared, it is difficult
to be very precise about costs, but on the basis of our experience
with similar work, we believe that the general framework including
goals and policies, the land use and transportation elements and
the referencing system for the other mandatory elements could be
completed for about $35,000.00. If a per diem basis is preferred,
we would bill for our actual time and for necessary travel. I am
enclosing our billing rates for your information. The preparation
of additional required elements as well as the preparation of
zoning and perhaps other ordinances could be scheduled after the
initial General Plan is completed, thus spreading the expense over
more than one fiscal year, and providing the citizens and officials
a better opportunity to study and assimilate the work.

destiny. We hope to hear from you soon.

THE LEAGUE Of CALIFORNIA
Municipal institutions constitute the
strength of free nations. A nation may estab-
lish a system of free government but
without Municipal Institutions it cannot
have the spirit of liberty.
ALFXIS DE TOCQUEVILLE
There is no magic by which you can estmct
a brilliant, honest and aggressive govern-
ment out of possibilities that are
inherently incapable. One may take two
hypotheses. Either the cities are hopeless
and will drag down Democmcy, or you can
take another, that the cities are the
pioneers in social living, that cities will
blaze the trail, that cities will show the
way and instead of destroying Democracy,
cities will vitalize and assure its
progress.

LEGISLATIVE REPRESENTATION
`Sec last page fur flowchart
One of the most important services of the
League is to present the facts about the cities'
needs to the State Legislature At each session
of the Legislature about a thousand bills are
introduced that affect city government. The
League staff follows each of these measures
on a day-to -day basis and regularly reports
developments through "Legislative Bulletins' .
■ h Y ieaoue LEGISLATIVE
G Q G POLICY
The position
Leais�ati�e which the League
will take on a par-
ticular measure is
SePV�CeS determined by
the Board of Directors
of the League and by
the General Assembly
ofdol,gatevat the Annual League Conference.
A city �fficial need only call attention to a
Iegisln!n problem and machinery will be put
into operalion to determine whether the
problem is one which .should he considered as
a part of the League's legislative program.
LEGISLATIVE ACCOMPLISHMENTS
Many outstandingaeromphshments have been
achieved through cities working together in
Sacramento. Your local budget reflects dra-
matically how important League legislative ac-
complishments are to your city in the area of
local revenue - raising authority and state.
collected locally -shared revenue. In recent
years the League worked to pass legislation
which established hotel room taxes, property
transfer taxes, gasoline taxes, automobile
license fees, liquor license fees. cigarette taxes
and special appropriations for flood or earth-
quake damage, civil defense, park and recrea-
tion facilities, planning, sewerage construc-
tion, water facilities and grade crossings.
These measures were won only by all cities
fighting for them and they can be lost it any
session of the Legislature if cities do not con-
tinue to work together.
In addition to revenue legislation, your
League has been responsible for many
measures which enable cities to cope with
growth, improve efficiency and attract compe-
tent personnel. A few of the varied subjects of
League - sponsored legislation include pro-
visions for State collection of local sales and
use taxes, Issuance of revenue bonds, com-
munity redevelopment, mutual aid, off- street
parking facilities, participation m the Public
Employees Retirement System, labor rela.
lions, codification of ordinances, community
recreation, presumption of illegal parking,
special census and intergovernmental con-
tacts.
Space will not permit a recitation of all
League- sponsored legislation passed over the
years as a result of the cities working together
in Sacramento. Nor is it possible to recite the
hundreds of defeated hills which would have
,seriously limited the right and ability of cities
to govern themselves.
The highdight of the year for the Leapt is the
Annual Conference, whi�b is held in Sep.
tember or October, and which alternates an-
nually between Northern and Southern Claim

special statewide conferences have been ar.
ranged to consider specific areas of interest,
such as municipal taxation and regional
government. The Mayors' and Councilmen's
Department of the League holds an institute
in the spring of oven - numbered years for
newly elected mayors and councilmen, and a
legislative institute in odd- numbered years for
all mayors and councilmen. City attorneys,
city clerks, public works officers and planning
officials regularly hold institutes. The city
managers t ondurt a mid- winter statewide
meeting, and in the summer, northern and
southern regional one -day sessions. A state-
wide Lather Relations Institute is conducted
annually for <'ity officials with an interest in
this field. Other groups within the League or-
ganization meet on special call as the need
arises. Proceedings of many of these institutes
are published for distribution to cities,

Nome Rule is the foundation of local govern.
ment and the guiding principle of the League
of California Cities, California cities have long
enjoyed a strong Home Rule tradition which
has generally permitted them to decide local
affairs without interference, by higher levels of
government.
A basic ingredient of Home Rule, self reii-
once, implies that cities will aggressively con-
front their own social, physical, or economic
problems at the local level. Certain problems
transcend local boundaries, however, and re-
quire intergnvemmental cooperation for ef-

ties, was the third State League organized in
the United States. The League has expanded
from a small group of cities whose officials
gathered only in yearly conventions to an ag-
gressive and effective organization of more
than 400 cities.
Perhaps the most significant question affect.
ing cities in the immediate future, however,
concerns the appropriate service responsibili-
ties of cities, counties, states and the federal
government. The traditional ideas about ser.
vice responsibilities of rities are disappearing
but no solid consensus has appeared to replace
them. Because the allocation of service re-
spansibilities between levels of government is
usually related to the allocation of revenue
sources between levels of government, a great
deal of change can he expected in the coming
years in this area,
higher levels of government, is vital to main.
taining a self- reliant biome Rule tradition.
Home Rule in California is rooted in the state
constitution, strengthened in statutes, and
interpreted by judicial decisions. The unremit-
ting attention of city officials is required to
assure that Home Rule is maintained and ad.
vanced.
The League n devoted to preserving and pro.
tecting municipal Home Rule primarily be-
cause it permits the most effective anti re-
sponsive kind of local government. The
League recognizes that it has, in turn, parallel
responsibility to encourage the highest pos.
sible caliber of local political and administra.
tive leadership in order to meet the challenges
of local problems in the years ahead.

EDA GRANTS - NEW GROUP

"The new Commission with three appointed members
from each Supervisorial District has broader responsi-
bilities," the Supervisors state. "We will be looking
at public expenditures in many areas, such as water and
sewer developments, roads and flood control projects,
and the planning of any similar County expenditures.
"If we can demonstrate that such projects coincide
with our overall development plan for the County, there
is a greater chance that EDA funds will be made available."
The new group, called the Economic Development
Commission, serves in an advisory capacity both to the
Board of Supervisors and to the County's staffing body,
the Economic Development Department.

SUBJECT CUCA)tONCA CREEK CORPS OF ENGINEERS IMPROVEMENT PROJECT
This is for your presentation to the City Council.
File: H06861
The San Bernardino County Flood Control District is initiating design or.
Phases V and VI of the Cucamonga Channel project. These Phases include
the entire reach of the Cucamonga Channel and Demens Channel within the
City. Current plans are for construction to begin an phase V for Cuca-
nonga Channel between the Airport and Ninth Street in the summer of 1978
and on phase VI for Cucamonga Channel from Ninth Street to the Cucamonga
Debris Basin and Demers Channel from Cucamonga Channel to Demens Debris
Basin in the summer of 1979.
The Cucamonga Channel project will require that bridges be constructed
at the public road crossings except at Base Line where the bridge con-
structed by the County in 1972 was built to ultimate standards for both
the traffic needs and the channel. The Foothill Boulevard and Nineteenth
Street crossings will require replacement bridges to accommodate the
Channel, but t :'eso are under Stcte jurisdiction. The street crossings
of Cucamonga Channel under the jurisdiction of Rancho Cucamonga that are
to be bridged are:
PHASE V
PHASE VI
Fourth Street (south side is in City of Ontario)
Hellman Avenue
Sixth Street
Eighth Street
Vineyard Avenue
Ninth Street
Arrow Route
Red !till Country Club Drive
Replacement of the crossings Wilh bridges, to the osh`nt necessary to
rel lace the e;:i nt ins; (ccilit�_, will be paid for from State Flood Control
Subvention Program funds administered by the State Department of Water
Resources (DWR). If wider bridges are desired by the City, the additional
widths are considered betterments and the added costs must be borne by
the City.

Demers Channel crossings at the intersections of Sapphire Street and Banyan
Street, Carnelian Street and Wilson Avenue, and Beryl Street and Hillside
Road will probably be provided by large reinforced concrete box culverts.
An evaluation of betterment costs for these crossings will be made in the
future. For budgeting purposes, a $50,000 contingency item is included
in the Phase VI Estimate and should be sufficient to cover any desired
betterments on Demens Channel.
In order to proceed with the design of the bridges, the Flood Control
District has requested that a determination of the extent of betterments
desired at the above listed crossings be made as soon as possible. Although
bridge construction is very expensive, we feel that sound planning and
safety considerations, and the difficulties and costs that would be involved
in future bridge widening, make it prudent for the city to fund sufficient
additional widths at this time to provide for the projected vehicular and
pedestrian needs for at least a 20 year period.
The attached table sets forth information about each of the crossings and
our recommendations for the design standards to be used. Also shown under
the table is the proposed road closure staging as developed by the Traffic
Engineer to minimize disruption to traffic during the construction of the
bridges. Please refer to the columns which indicate allowable replacement
width (determined by the State as the width to be funded from State funds),
the Master Plan width, and the proposed width which indicates our recommen-
dation based upon traffic projections for a 20 year period. Although, con-
struction to the full Master Plan widths would be the ideal, the costs to
the city would be very high. To construct all of the bridges to the Master
Plan width would require a contribution of almost $1.1 million by the city.
Therefore, our recommendations indicate the widths that we feel are appro-
priate in view of traffic needs and funding constraints. We are also re-
commending that 5 foot sidewalks be provided on both sides of all bridges
for pedestrian safety in this urbanizing area.
In general, we feel that four traffic lanes should be provided at locations
where the 20 year traffic projection exceeds 10,000 vehicles per day(Fourth
Street, Vineyard Avenue and Arrow Route) and that Initial construction of
two traffic lanes at the other locations is appropriate. In the case of
Master Planned four ],one roads where only two lanes of initial construction
are proposed (Ile ll man Avenue, Sixth Street and Eighth Street) we. would re-
commend that the design of the initial bridge include provisions to seem -
modate future widening to four lanes.
Ken Hunter
City Manager
February 16, 1978

lie recommend a 58 foot w+,dth between curbs nn the four lane bridges to
provide four 12 foot lanes, a 2 foot striped median and 4 foot shoulders.
A 32 foot width between curbs is recommended for the two lane bridges to
provide two 12 foot lanes and 4 foot shoulders. The 58 foot width re-
commendation for the Fourth Street bridge is the same as proposed by the
City of Ontario which has jurisdiction over the south side of the bridge.
The bridge widths recommended include betterments which would cost the
City an estimated $323,000 for Phase V and $176,000 for Phase VI,
Since Phase V is scheduled for constriction beginning this summer, the
City's 1978 -79 fiscal year budget would have to include the betterment
funds for this Phase. Phase VI is scheduled for const nrcrc tion beginning
in the summer of 1979 so the betterment funds for this Phase should be
included in the 1979 -80 fiscal year budget.
We recommend the City earmark the portions of its Local Transportation
Funds (SB 325) allocations that are not required to fund transit services
for use in paying the costs of the bridge betterments. We currently
expect that such funds will become available to the City in July 1978 and
will provide about $30,000 per month for road improvement purposes. Since
this would not allow for the advance payment of betterment funds as nor-
mally required by the Flood Control District, a funding arrangement would
have to be negotiated with the District and approved by the City Council
and the Board of Supervisors. Funding betterment costs under this arrange-
ment would take most of the City's SB 325 revenue for the fiscal years
1978 -79 and 1979 -80 that is not used for Omnitrans services.
City Council approval of the recommended bridge widths, and detour staging
is requested to allow the District to proceed with plan development and
preparation of the required cooperative agreements between the District
and the City.
City Council approval of the concept under which SB 325 funds would be
used to the maximum extent available to finance the betterment share of
the project is also requested so we can proceed with budget preparation
and submittal of documents required to have the project included in the
Regional Transportation Improvement Program.

the issues may be resolved; however, he would be bringing forth
questions that a Task Force study may be needed as the issue
may take longer than 3t� months to resolve.
General concensus was that Mr. Blayney could count on this
coming up in the future, probably through the Planning
Commission.
