STAFF REPORT
TO: CITY COUNCIL
FROM: Douglas Schulze, City Manager
PREPARED BY: Emery Papp, Senior Planner
Adam Rush, Community Development Director
MEETING DATE: February 13, 2024
SUBJECT: Consideration and Introduction of Ordinance 1600, Amending the High Density Residential (HDR) and Very High Density Residential (VHDR) Zoning Districts by Amending the Definitions in Sections 17.08.010.B.8 and 17.08.010.B.11, Amending Existing Permitted Uses and Adding New Permitted and Conditionally Permitted Uses for the Very High Density Residential Zone in Section 17.08.020, and Adding Residential Development Standards for the Very High Density Residential Zone in Section 17.08.030 (Chapter 17.08, Articles I & Ii); And Amending Commercial Zoning Districts (Chapter 17.12, Articles I & II) by Adding New Permitted and Conditionally Permitted Uses to Table 17.12.020 of the City of Banning Municipal Code (BMC) Allowing Special Needs Housing As Required Pursuant to Programs Contained in the 6th Cycle Housing Element and State Housing Law; And Making a Determination of Exemption From the California Environmental Quality Act RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends that the City Council waive full reading and introduce, as read by title only, Ordinance 1600, An Ordinance of the City of Banning, California, Amending the High Density Residential (HDR) and Very High Density Residential (VHDR) zoning districts by amending the definitions in Sections
17.08.010.B.8 and 17.08.010.B.11 of the Banning Municipal Code (BMC); Adding new Permitted and Conditionally permitted uses for the VHDR zone in Section 17.08.020 BMC; Adding Residential development standards for the VHDR zone in Section 17.08.030 BMC; and Amending Commercial Zoning Districts by Adding new Permitted and Conditionally Permitted Uses to Section 17.12.020 BMC allowing special needs housing as required by Programs contained in the recently adopted 6th Cycle Housing Element; and make a determination that the project is exempt from the California Environmental Act (CEQA) pursuant to Section 15061(b)(3) because it can be seen with certainty there is no possibility these amendments may have a significant effect on the environment, and direct Staff to file a Notice of Exemption for the project.
BACKGROUND:
On January 9, 2024, the Banning City Council adopt the revised 6th Cycle Housing Element Update. In approving the Housing Element, the City Council understood that a Zoning Text Amendment would be required to implement amended and new Housing Element Programs contained within the 6th Cycle Housing Element, and would be brought forward to this approval body in February 2024. The City Council was so advised during staff’s presentation that the following recommended Programs in the 6th Cycle Housing Element will require amendments to Title 17, Zoning, of the Banning Municipal Code:
1603
Program 4:
Amend Density threshold for VHDR from 19-24 to 24-30 du/ac.
Program 5:
Per CGC 65583, allow housing developments by right when a minimum of 20% of units are affordable.
Program 6:
Offer incentives for lot consolidation for affordable housing projects.
Program 8:
Allow supportive housing by right in MF and MU zones.
Permit Group Homes in all residential zones with similar approval authority as for Residential Care Facilities.

Information to be made available on City’s website.
Program 27:
Periodically amend BMC to incorporate/integrate additional and/or new legislation changes to State Housing Laws
JUSTIFICATION:
California law requires each City and County adopt a comprehensive, long-term General Plan to guide development in their jurisdiction and land outside its boundaries that has relation to its city planning (Govt. Code §65300). California Government Code Section 65302 requires the General Plan to consist 1604
of seven State-mandated elements, including Land Use, Circulation, Housing, Conservation, Open Space, Noise, and Safety Elements. The Housing Element is one of the seven State-mandated elements of the General Plan and must be updated every 8 years, unless otherwise mandated by California Government Code Section 65581. The purpose of the Housing Element is to develop comprehensive strategies for providing safe, decent, and affordable housing within the community across all income levels. The 6th Cycle Housing Element Update which spans the time period from 2021 through 2029 was adopted by the City Council on November 9, 2021 and was submitted to the California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) for certification review on November 18, 2021. At the conclusion of a 90-Day Review Period, HCD did not certify the Housing Element and required revisions to be made per a comment letter dated February 21, 2022. A revised 6th Cycle Housing Element Update was reviewed by the Planning Commission on December 6, 2023 and is scheduled for City Council review on January 9, 2024. Upon adoption by the City Council, the 6th Cycle Housing Element will again be transmitted to HCD for Certification review. To be considered for Certification, the proposed Zoning Text Amendments contained in Draft Ordinance 1600 are integral to implementing the Housing Element Programs and must be adopted by the City Council prior to the conclusion of HCD’s 60-day Certification review period. Until the 6th Cycle Housing Element is Certified by HCD, the City is not eligible to compete for federal, state, or local grant money. If deemed by HCD to have a noncompliant Housing Element, the City can lose the ability to receive Community Development Block Grants as well as other negative incentives such as fines and increases to the City’s Regional Housing Needs Assessment.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The costs associated with preparing the Ordinance Amendment is minimal. Future residential or mixeduse development will be paid for through the submittal of developer fees.
If deemed by HCD to have a noncompliant Housing Element, the City can lose the ability to receive Community Development Block Grants as well as other negative incentives such as fines and increases to the City’s Regional Housing Needs Assessment.
ALTERNATIVES:
1. Introduce Ordinance 1600 as recommended.
2. Introduce Ordinance 1600 with modifications.
3. Remand to the Planning Commission for further discussion.
3. Provide alternative direction to staff.

CALIFORNIA ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY ACT
The City Council of the City of Banning does hereby ordain as follows:
SECTION 1. Findings and Purpose.
A. On January 9, 2024, the City of Banning adopted a revised Housing Element update for the 6th Cycle based on comments received from the State of California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) and the public.
B. The City has submitted its revised Housing Element update to HCD for review and certification. HCD has 60 days to act, during which time the City must adopt certain zoning text amendments described in the Housing Element; including: (1) establishing residential density at 30 dwelling units per acre (DU/AC); (2) establishing a zone or zones that authorizes certain MultiFamily Residential (MFR)/High Density Residential) (HDR) housing projects or as a ministerial action (e.g., "by right"); (3) adopting objective residential development standards decreases the barriers to entry as related to Multi-Family Residential and High Density Residential development; and (4) establishing reasonable regulations for Multi-Family Residential and High Density Residential development, is necessary as a means of documenting and preserving these properties. Zoning Text Amendment 23-97503, which would amend Title 17 of the Banning Municipal Code as described in the title of this Ordinance, was prepared for the purpose of fulfilling this obligation.
C. On January 9, 2024, the Planning Commission held a duly noticed public hearing on Zoning Text Amendment 23-97503, during which all interested persons were allowed to comment on the matter. After considering all of the evidence and testimony presented at that hearing, the Planning Commission adopted Resolution 2024-02, recommending that the City Council adopt an ordinance approving Zoning Text Amendment 23-97503.
D. On February 13, 2024, the City Council held a duly noticed public hearing on Zoning Text Amendment 23-97503, during which all interested persons were allowed to comment on the matter.
E. Based on all of the evidence and testimony presented at that hearing, the entirety of the administrative record in this matter, and the Planning Commission’s recommendation regarding the same, the City Council finds as follows:
a. All facts and findings set forth above in this Section 1 of the Ordinance are true and correct.
b. This Ordinance is consistent with the goals and policies of the City's revised Housing Element update and the City’s General Plan as a whole. 1606
Ordinance 1600
c. This Ordinance is internally consistent with the Banning Municipal Code. d. The City Council has independently reviewed and considered the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act ("CEQA"), and has determined that the zoning text amendments contained in this Ordinance are categorically exempt from CEQA pursuant to Section 15061(b)(3) of the CEQA Guidelines because it can be seen with certainty there is no possibility these amendments may have a significant effect on the environment.
F. All legal prerequisites to adoption of this Ordinance have occurred.
SECTION 2. Paragraph B of Section 17.08.010 (Purpose) of Article I (General Provisions) of Chapter 17.08 (Residential Districts) of Division II (Land Use Districts) of Title 17 (Zoning) of the Banning Municipal Code is hereby amended as follows:
(i.) Subparagraph 8 is amended to read as follows:
“High Density Residential (HDR) (11 – 23 DU/AC). Allows condominiums and townhomes, as well as apartments with the provision of common area amenities and open space. The clustering of condominiums and townhomes is appropriate with the provision of common area amenities and open space. Mobile home parks and subdivisions with the provision of common area amenities and open space may also be appropriate, with the approval of a conditional use permit. Home Occupations may be appropriate with approval of a Home Occupation permit.” (ii.) Subparagraph 11 is amended to read as follows:
“Very High-Density Residential (VHDR) (24 – 30 DU/AC). Allows condominiums and townhomes, as well as apartments with the provision of common area amenities and open space. The clustering of condominiums and townhomes is appropriate with the provision of common area amenities and open space.

Summary of Ordinance 1600
This is a summary of the above-entitled Ordinance 1600 of the City of Banning. This summary has been prepared and published in accordance with the requirements of Government Code Section 36933.
On February 13, 2024, City staff will recommend that the City Council of the City of Banning introduce and conduct the first reading of Ordinance 1600. On January 9, 2024, the City Council approved the City of Banning 6th Cycle Housing Element update by adoption of Resolution 2024-12. The Housing Plan within the adopted 6th Cycle Housing Element update identifies the City’s housing goals, policies, and implementation programs. Ordinance 1600 proposes certain Zoning Text Amendments required under the implementation programs within the 6th Cycle Housing Element update, in compliance with recent changes in California housing laws, and in response to comments received by the State of California Department of Housing and Community Development (“HCD”). Specifically, Ordinance 1600 amends:
(1) Banning Municipal Code (“BMC”) Section 17.08.010.B.8. to increase the density threshold for the High Density Residential (“HDR”) zoning district from 11-18 du/acre to 11-24 du/acre consistent with Program 6 within the Housing Element; (2) BMS Section 17/.08.010.B.11 to increase the density threshold for the Very High-Density Residential (“VHDR”) zoning district from 19-24 du/acre to 24-30 du/acre consistent with Program 4 within the Housing Element; (3) Table 17.08.020 of BMC Section
17.08.020 to reduce constraints for special needs housing and identify uses allowed within the VHDR zoning district consistent with Program 5 within the Housing Element/Government Code Section 65583 of the State housing laws; (4) Table 17.08.030 of BMC Section 17.08.030 to add residential development standards for the VHDR zoning district, modify the minimum lot size for multi-family residential units on premises within the Low Density Residential (“LDR”) zoning district, and modify the maximum density for premises within the HDR zoning district, all consistent with Program 4 within the Housing Element/Government Code Section 65583 of the State housing laws; and (5) Table 17.12.020 of BMC Section 17.12.020 to add “Residential care facility, small, licensed” as a permitted use on premises within 1620
99 E. Ramsey Street • P.O. Box 998 • Banning, CA 92220-0998 • (951) 922-3100 the Downtown Commercial (“DC”) and General Commercial (“GC”) zoning districts and as a use subject to a Conditional Use Permit in the Professional Office (“PO”) zoning district to further reduce constraints for special needs housing consistent with Programs 8 and 9 within the Housing Element/Government Code Section 65583 of the State housing laws.
City staff has evaluated the potential environmental impacts of the adoption of the proposed Zoning Text Amendments pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”). City staff has determined that the proposed Zoning Text Amendments contained in proposed Ordinance 1600 are categorically exempt from CEQA pursuant to Section 15061(b)(3) of the CEQA Guidelines because it can be seen with certainty there is no possibility these amendments may have a significant effect on the environment.
On January 10, 2024, the Planning Commission of the City of Banning held a public hearing on the proposed Zoning Text Amendments, at which time all persons interested in the proposed Zoning Text Amendments had an opportunity to and did address the Planning Commission on this matter. Following the receipt of public testimony, the Planning Commission voted 5-0-0 to recommend approval of the proposed Zoning Text Amendments to the City Council by adopting Planning Commission Resolution 2024-02.

STAFF REPORT
TO: CITY COUNCIL
FROM: Douglas Schulze, City Manager
PREPARED BY: Doug Schulze, City Manager
MEETING DATE: February 13, 2024
SUBJECT: Consideration and Introduction of Ordinance 1597, Establishing Regulations Governing the Possession of Catalytic Converters, and Amending Title 9 of the Banning Municipal Code
RECOMMENDATION:
A motion waiving full reading and introducing, as read by title only, Ordinance 1597, establishing regulations governing the possession of catalytic converters, and amending Title 9 of the Banning Municipal Code.
BACKGROUND:
Theft of catalytic converters has been an increasing problem in Riverside County as well as in Banning in recent years. The external location of catalytic converters and the use of valuable precious metals, including rhodium, palladium and platinum, in catalytic converters makes these devices a target for thieves. Individuals in possession of stolen catalytic converters often recycle them for substantial profit, while victims of these thefts suffer the consequences of paying thousands of dollars in repairs, the inconvenience of repairing their vehicles, and feeling unsafe in the community.
The purpose and intent of the proposed Ordinance is to curb the theft of catalytic converters in Banning and to provide the City with reasonable means to address the impact on the community and the victims posed by increasing catalytic converter thefts. Similar ordinances have been adopted by Riverside County and the City of Beaumont.
JUSTIFICATION:
The inability to identify the victims of catalytic converter thefts can inhibit the ability to successfully prosecute individuals for thefts. The proposed Ordinance is necessary to provide the City of Banning a means to protect the public, deter this criminal activity, and promote a more productive use of City resources.
FISCAL IMPACT:
City staff and legal counsel time involved with preparation of ordinance and staff report is minimal.
Adoption of this Ordinance will create efficiencies for law enforcement personnel.
ALTERNATIVES:
1. Waive full reading and introduce, as read by title only, Ordinance 1597, as written.
2. Waive full reading and introduce, as read by title only, Ordinance 1597, with modifications.
3. Do not introduce Ordinance 1597.

ORDINANCE 1597
AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY OF BANNING, CALIFORNIA,
ESTABLISHING REGULATIONS GOVERNING THE POSSESSION OF
CATALYTIC CONVERTERS, AND AMENDING TITLE 9 OF THE
BANNING MUNICIPAL CODE
The City Council of the City of Banning does hereby ordain as follows:
SECTION 1. Findings and Purpose.
A. The City Council finds that theft of catalytic converters has been an increasing problem in Banning in recent years. In the City, dozens of reports of catalytic converter thefts occur annually impacting many victims. The external location of catalytic converters and the use of valuable precious metals, including rhodium, palladium and platinum, in catalytic converters makes these devices a target for thieves. Individuals in possession of stolen catalytic converters often recycle them for substantial profit, while victims of these thefts suffer the consequences of paying thousands of dollars in repairs, the inconvenience of repairing their vehicles, and feeling unsafe in the community.
B. Finding the victim of these crimes is extremely difficult due to the manner in which the catalytic converter thefts occur and lack of identifying markers on catalytic converters to link a stolen catalytic converter to the victim. The inability to identify the victims of catalytic converter thefts can inhibit the ability to successfully prosecute individuals for the thefts. This ordinance is necessary to provide the City a means to protect the public, deter this criminal activity, and promote a more productive use of City of Banning resources.
C. In accordance with the California Constitution, Article XI, Section 7, a city may make and enforce within its limits all local, police, sanitary and other ordinances and regulations not in conflict with general laws.
D. The purpose and intent of this Ordinance is to curb the theft of catalytic converters throughout the City and to provide the City with reasonable means to address the impact on the community and the victims posed by increasing catalytic converter thefts.
SECTION 2. A new Chapter 9.28 is hereby added to Title 9 (Public Peace, Morals, and Welfare) of the Banning Municipal Code, to read, as follows:
“Chapter 9.28 - UNLAWFUL POSSESSION OF CATALYTIC CONVERTERS Sections:
9.28.010 - Definitions.

“Lawful possession” means (1) being the lawful owner of the catalytic converter or (2) being in possession of the catalytic converter with the lawful owner’s verifiable written consent. It is not required to prove the catalytic converter was stolen to establish the possession is not a lawful possession.

vehicle unless the person has a documentation or other proof verifying they are in lawful possession of the catalytic converter.
B. This section does not apply to a detached catalytic converter, otherwise lawfully possessed, that has been verifiably tested, certified, and labeled or otherwise approved for reuse, and is being bought or sold for purposes of reuse in accordance with (i) the federal Clean Air Act (42 U.S.C. § 7401 et seq.) and regulations under the Clean Air Act; or (ii) or applicable regulations of the California Air Resources Board, as they may be amended from time to time.
C. It is unlawful for any person to knowingly falsify or cause to be falsified any information in any documentation or other proof intended to show valid proof of ownership or possession of a catalytic converter.
D. Evidence of unlawful possession may be presumed by the number of detached catalytic converters within one’s possession and/or by the condition of the dismantled catalytic converter(s), including, but not limited to, the manner a catalytic converter has been detached or cut from a vehicle.
9.28.030 - Violations and enforcement.
A. Misdemeanor Penalty. Any person who violates any provision of this chapter is guilty of a misdemeanor, and upon conviction shall be punished by a fine not exceeding one thousand dollars, or by imprisonment in the county jail for a term not exceeding one year, or by both. Upon any second or subsequent conviction of the offense, the person shall be punished by the penalties of a fine of one thousand dollars and by imprisonment in the county jail for one year.
B. State Penalties Apply. Nothing in this chapter shall be intended to limit any of the penalties provided for under California law, including, but not limited to, the Penal Code, with regard to the sale, use, possession, delivery, and/or receipt of catalytic converters.
C. Administrative Civil Penalty. In addition to any other penalties provided by law, whenever an enforcement officer determines a violation of this chapter has occurred, the enforcement officer shall have the authority to issue an administrative citation with an administrative civil penalty to any person responsible for the violation, in accordance with and subject to the provisions of chapter 1.20 of this code.”
SECTION 3. Non-exclusive Remedies and Penalties. All remedies and penalties for violations of the prohibitions in this Ordinance shall be cumulative and not exclusive.

Enforcement remedies may be employed concurrently or consecutively. Conviction and punishment of or enforcement against any person hereunder shall not relieve such person from the responsibility of 1628
Ordinance 1597
correcting, removing, or abating a violation, nor prevent the enforced correction, removal, or abatement thereof.
SECTION 4. Severability. The provisions of this Ordinance are separate and severable.
If any provision of this Ordinance is for any reason held by a court to be unconstitutional or invalid, the City Council declares that it would have passed this Ordinance irrespective of the invalidity of the provision held to be unconstitutional or invalid. Such unconstitutionality or invalidity shall therefore not affect the remaining provisions of this Ordinance, or the validity of its application to other persons or circumstances.
SECTION 5: The City Clerk is directed to certify the passage and adoption of this Ordinance; cause it to be entered into the City of Banning’s book of original ordinances; make a note of the passage and adoption in the records of this meeting; and, within fifteen (15) days after the passage and adoption of this Ordinance, cause it to be published or posted in accordance with California law.

Adam B. Rush, M.A., AICP
MEETING DATE: February 13, 2024
SUBJECT: Consideration and Introduction of Ordinance 1598, Adding a New Chapter 1.32 to Title 1 of the Banning Municipal Code and Amending Other Sections of the Banning Municipal Code to Create and Implement a Comprehensive Cost Recovery Program for All Nuisance Abatement Actions, and Making a Determination of Exemption under CEQA pursuant to CEQA Guidelines 15060(c)(2)(3) and 15061(b)(3) RECOMMENDATION:
Waive full reading and introduce, as read by title only, Ordinance 1598. An Ordinance of the City of Banning, California, Adding a New Chapter 1.32 to Title 1 of the Banning Municipal Code and Amending Other Sections of the Banning Municipal Code to Create and Implement a Comprehensive Cost Recovery Program for All Nuisance Abatement Actions.
BACKGROUND:
Assembly Bill ("AB") 2495 was approved by the Governor on September 5, 2018, and became effective on January 1, 2019. AB 2495 puts limitations on cost recovery by cities, counties, and cities and counties, in criminal code enforcement cases.
AB 2495 added Section 688.5 to the California Penal Code, which prohibits a local agency from charging a defendant for the costs of an investigation, prosecution, or appeal in a criminal case, including a criminal violation of a local ordinance.
Various state laws authorize local governments to declare what is a nuisance, and also to approach Code Enforcement either administratively, civilly or criminally. A local entity may also pursue cost recovery options as long as they have adopted a local ordinance specifically allowing for it. Typically, costs are recovered in connection with civil litigation or administrative enforcement actions. Before the enactment of AB 2495, some cities also sought recoupment of various enforcement costs in connection with criminal cases. AB 2495 was drafted in response. Before this change in the law, the recovery of attorney’s fees in connection with a criminal case was sought by some, but not all local agencies. But numerous local agencies regularly sought recovery of investigation costs and other costs incurred by code enforcement staff. Reimbursement of these enforcement costs was typically transparent — accomplished either by an agreement during the plea bargain process or by a judge’s order judge as restitution.
Under AB 2495, municipalities may still recover costs through administrative processes, but local agencies will no longer be able to seek costs related to the investigation and prosecution of a criminal case.
1631
JUSTIFICATION:
The City Council conducted a workshop on August 22, 2023 that reviewed the functions, resources and staffing associated with the Code Enforcement Division. In addition, the Council regularly receives updates on the Code Enforcement Statistics generated from the previous month. Currently, the Department is fully staffed within the parameters set by the City Council; nevertheless, the amount and complexity of active cases, combined with at least a half-dozen cases referred to the City's Code Enforcement Legal Counsel (Silver & Wright) and regular enforcement of unpermitted sidewalk street vendors, staffing resources are not sufficient to efficiently and effectively manage every element under our charge.
California Assembly Bill 2495 was approved by the Governor in 2018 and placed limitations on cities and counties concerning the recovery of costs in criminal code enforcement cases. Furthermore, this legislation prohibits a local agency from charging a defendant for the costs of an investigation, prosecution or appeal in a criminal case, such as criminal violations of a local ordinance.
Code Enforcement activities rarely result in 100% cost recovery of all labor and equipment costs (both "hard" and "soft" costs) and with the passage of AB 2495, the ability to recover costs associated with investigations and attorney's fees were further eliminated. These investigation services are required in order to ensure and preserve the Due Process Rights (4th and 14th Amendment protections afforded by the U.S. Constitution). As such, if detailed and timely investigations were not conducted, then the violators could have their cases dismissed based upon a "lack of due process protections", which further contributes to the degradation and blight of our community. In effect, the City is prohibited from collecting reimbursement from property owners and businesses that continue to operate illegally and perpetuate a public nuisance and threat to public safety.
However, a local entity may pursue cost recovery options as long as they have adopted a local ordinance specifically allowing for it. Ordinance 1598 has been prepared by the City's Code Enforcement legal counsel - Silver & Wright - and forwarded to City Council, by the Community Development Director, for introduction and first reading. Ordinance 1598 seeks to provide this enabling authority, which is provided under California Government Code Sections 36901, 38771, 38773.1, and 38773.5, as well as Article XI, Section 7 of the California Constitution. These Government Code provisions are rooted in the City’s authority, under Article XI, Section 7 of the California Constitution, which grants a city broad discretionary power to “make and enforce within its limits all local police, sanitary, and other ordinances and regulations not in conflict with general laws.”
In summary, these Government Code provisions allow the City Council to impose fines, penalties, and forfeitures for violations of ordinances. The City may fix the penalty by fine or imprisonment, or both; however, a fine may not exceed $1,000. In addition, Sections 38771, 38771, 38773.1, and 38773.5 allow the City to declare, by ordinance, what constitutes a public nuisance; meaning a use or property presents a clear danger to the safety or welfare of the public. Also, by ordinance, the City may establish a procedure to collect abatement and related administrative costs by nuisance abatement lien.
Subsequently, the City can record a special assessment against the subject parcel for said cost.
City staff has determined that the proposed Ordinance 1598 is not subject to the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) pursuant to Sections 15060(c)(2) of the CEQA Guidelines (the activity will not result in a direct or reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment) and 15060(c)(3) (the activity is not a project as defined in Section 15378) because it has no potential for resulting in physical change to the environment, directly or indirectly. Further, if the activity is deemed a project, the City Council finds that this Ordinance is exempt pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 1632
15061(b)(3). Should the City Council adopt the proposed Ordinance 1598, staff will file the attached draft Notice of Exemption ("NOE") with the County and, pursuant to Senate Bill 69, will also file the NOE with the Office of Planning & Research (OPR).
FISCAL IMPACT:
The City's Code Enforcement Legal Counsel - Silver & Wright works on contingency, based upon the recovery of certain costs received through the Receivership Process that is pursued for properties that qualify as a Public Nuisance and constitute a clear threat to the Public Safety and Welfare. As such, no cost was incurred for Silver & Wright to prepare this Ordinance.
The City Attorney's Office has reviewed the formatting of the draft Ordinance, and provided suggested changes to staff, in their regular course of business operations and contracted services to the City. While a specific dollar amount is not yet tabulated, this review does not constitute more than a couple hours.
The Community Development Director acted as the primary staff contact with the City's Legal Team and prepared the staff report under his normal duties. As such, no additional costs were incurred that are not already allocated for this position.
Approximate Costs are: $2,670.00 in staff time and $750.00 in advertising with the Record Gazette.

1.32.040 - Attorneys’ fees and costs.
1637

If the city elects at the initiation of any nuisance abatement action to seek attorneys’ fees, the prevailing party in such nuisance abatement action shall be entitled to recover its reasonable attorneys’ fees, not to exceed the amount of reasonable attorneys’ fees incurred by the city in the nuisance abatement action. In the event the city prevails, the attorneys’ fees awarded to the city shall be included as abatement costs. Non-prevailing parties shall be jointly and severally liable for all attorneys’ fees and costs owed to the prevailing party. The city shall be deemed the prevailing party in a nuisance abatement action if a nuisance condition is proven to have existed on a nuisance property when the city initiated its nuisance abatement action even if the nuisance condition is cured prior to the conclusion of the nuisance abatement action.
1.32.050 - Collection remedies.
In addition to any other remedy set forth in this code or provided by law, the city is authorized to initiate any administrative or civil action to recover all abatement costs, and to pursue recovery of all abatement costs in any nuisance abatement action to the fullest extent permitted by law.

Payment shall be submitted to the city as specified in the invoice. The invoice shall further indicate that any unpaid amounts may become a lien and special assessment against the nuisance property.
D. Any responsible party or interested party to whom an invoice has been issued may, within fifteen days from the date of the invoice, request a hearing on the amount of abatement costs. A request for hearing must be made in writing to the city clerk and contain the following information:
1. The requesting party’s full legal name.
2. The requesting party’s mailing address for service.
1638
Ordinance 1598
3. The requesting party’s phone number.
4. The amount of abatement costs disputed.
5. The specific legal and factual grounds for all disputes of the invoice and abatement costs.
E. The failure of any responsible party or interested party to properly and timely request a hearing shall constitute a waiver by that party of that party’s right to contest the invoice and the abatement costs, a waiver by that party of that party’s right to a hearing, a failure by that party to exhaust that party’s administrative remedies, a bar to any further challenge to the invoice and abatement costs by that party, and an admission by that party to that party’s liability for the abatement costs as assessed.
1.32.070 - Abatement costs hearing.
A. If a hearing is timely and properly requested, the city manager’s designee shall appoint a neutral and impartial hearing officer to hold and conduct an administrative hearing in accordance with this chapter. A hearing officer shall be a neutral third-party contracted by the city and selected in a manner that avoids the potential for any bias against any parties to the hearing. The hearing officer’s compensation, if any, shall be paid by the city; however, the non-prevailing parties shall be jointly and severally liable to reimburse the city for the costs of the hearing and the hearing officer’s compensation. The hearing officer’s compensation shall not be directly or indirectly conditioned upon the outcome of the hearing.
B. The city shall endeavor to set a hearing within sixty days from the date that a timely and proper hearing request is filed, or upon any other date mutually agreed upon by all parties to the hearing. The city shall provide notice of the date, time, and location of the hearing to all requesting parties at least ten days prior to the hearing. The hearing notice shall specify that failure by a requesting party to appear at the hearing will constitute a waiver of that party’s right to contest the invoice and the abatement costs, a waiver of that party’s right to a hearing, a failure by that party to exhaust their administrative remedies, a bar to any further challenge to the invoice and the abatement costs by that party, and an admission to that party’s liability for the abatement costs as assessed.
Failure by the city to strictly comply with this provision shall not invalidate the invoice, the decision, the hearing notice, the administrative hearing, nor the city’s cost recovery rights. The hearing officer shall hold an informal administrative hearing. Formal rules of evidence shall not apply to this hearing; however, there shall be an opportunity to present testimony, documentary evidence, and other evidence to the hearing officer, and to cross1639 Ordinance 1598
examine witnesses. Only the requesting parties and the city may participate in the hearing.
C. Administrative citations, administrative orders, administrative decisions, criminal convictions, civil judgments, and other similar proceedings, unless being actively and validly contested or appealed, shall be conclusive as establishing the adjudicated matters, such as the identity of the responsible parties and the existence of the nuisances, and those adjudicated matters shall not be subject to dispute at the abatement costs hearing.
D. The hearing officer may continue the hearing and request additional information as is reasonable and necessary.
E. Not later than thirty days after the date on which the administrative hearing concludes, the hearing officer shall issue a written decision approving, denying, or modifying the amount of the abatement costs that the city is entitled to recover. The hearing officer’s decision shall be final. The city shall serve notice of the hearing officer’s decision in accordance with this chapter. Failure by the hearing officer to strictly comply with this provision shall not invalidate the invoice nor the decision.
F. The hearing costs shall be advanced by the city; however, the non-prevailing parties shall be ultimately liable to reimburse the city for the hearing costs. If any cost recovery is upheld, even in part, the city shall be the prevailing party, and the requesting parties shall be liable to the city for the hearing costs in proportion to the amount of abatement costs upheld by the hearing officer. If cost recovery is entirely denied, the requesting parties shall be the prevailing parties and shall not be liable to reimburse the city for the hearing costs.
G. If the city is the prevailing party, the hearing officer’s decision shall order the responsible parties to pay the confirmed amount of abatement costs to the city within thirty days, and shall specify that any confirmed abatement costs not paid within thirty days shall become a lien and special assessment against the nuisance property.

A. Whenever a notice or document is required to be served by this chapter, unless specifically provided otherwise, it may be served by any one of the following methods:
1. Personal service on the party.

For any party registered with the Secretary of State, by certified mail to that party’s agent for service of process at the address registered with the Secretary of State, or as otherwise permitted by law. For any such party required to register with the Secretary of State that has not designated an agent for service of process with the Secretary of State, then a notice may be served on that party by certified mail to the Secretary of State.
5. By email when an email address is provided by that party.
6. In any other manner reasonably calculated to effectuate notice.
B. Service by posting shall be deemed effective at the time of posting. Service by mail shall be deemed effective upon deposit in the mail.
C. The failure of any party to receive any notice or document served in accordance with this chapter shall not affect the validity of the notice or document, the validity of its service, any proceeding conducted pursuant to that notice or document, nor the city’s cost recovery rights.
D. Unless otherwise provided in the invoice, all notices and documents required to be served on the city pursuant to this chapter must be personally served or mailed to the city clerk’s office. The notice or document must be received by the city within the time specified for service.
1.32.090 - Nuisance abatement lien.
A. If the abatement costs are upheld, in full or in part, by the hearing officer, or if the time for requesting a hearing has elapsed and the invoice has not been paid in full within the time designated by this chapter, the city may record a nuisance abatement lien against the nuisance property for any unpaid amount.
B. Prior to recording a nuisance abatement lien, the city shall serve notice of the lien on all persons or entities with a recorded interest in the nuisance property.
In addition, the owners of record shall be served with notice of the lien at the address provided in the last equalized assessment roll or the supplemental roll for the nuisance property, whichever is more current, in the same manner as a summons in a civil action in accordance with Code of Civil Procedure, part 2, title 5, chapter 4, article 3 (commencing with Section 415.10). If the owner of record cannot be found after diligent search, notice of the lien may be served by posting a copy of the notice in a conspicuous place upon the nuisance property for a period of ten days.
1641
Ordinance 1598
C. In the event that the lien is discharged, released, or satisfied, then notice of the discharge, release, or satisfaction shall be recorded on the nuisance property.

Empowering Legislation
Article XI, Section 7, of the California Constitution A county or city may make and enforce within its limits all local, police, sanitary, and other ordinances and regulations not in conflict with general laws. (Sec. 7 added June 2, 1970, by Prop. 2. Res.Ch. 331, 1969.) Penal Code: Chapter 4.2 - Code Enforcement Officers [829.5 - 829.7] Each local jurisdiction that employs code enforcement officers shall develop code enforcement officer safety standards appropriate for the code enforcement officers employed in their jurisdiction. (Added by Stats. 2021, Ch. 637, Sec. 2. (SB 296) Effective January 1, 2022.) 1650
Code Enforcement Definition
CODE ENFORCEMENT DEFINITION:
"Code Enforcement is the prevention, detection, investigation and enforcement of violations of statutes or ordinances regulating public health, safety, and welfare, public works, business activities and consumer protection, building standards, land-use, or municipal affairs."
1651
What is a Code Officer?
CODE ENFORCEMENT OFFICER DEFINITION:
"A Code Enforcement Officer is a sworn or non-sworn inspector, officer or investigator, employed by a city, or county, or city and county, who possesses specialized training in, and whose primary duties are the prevention, detection, investigation, and enforcement of violations of laws regulating public nuisance, public health, safety, and welfare, public works, business activities and consumer protection, building standards, land-use, or municipal affairs." 1652
What is a Code Officer? (cont’d)
Health & Safety Code CHAPTER 20. – Certified Code Enforcement Officers [26205 - 26217] (Chapter 20 added by Stats. 2016, Ch. 246, Sec. 2.) (c) “Certified Code Enforcement Officer” or “CCEO” means a person registered or certified as described in this chapter.
(d) “Code enforcement officer” has the same meaning as defined in Section 829.5 of the Penal Code. (Added by Stats. 2016, Ch. 246, Sec. 2. (AB 2228) Effective January 1, 2017.) 1653
Code Enforcement Definition (Expanded)
"Code enforcement is a function, local governments perform, that citizens consider important for accomplishing community goals, such as protecting property values and the environment. Code Enforcement is a process whereby local governments use various techniques to gain compliance with duly-adopted regulations such as land use and zoning ordinances, health and housing codes, sign standards, and uniform building and fire codes.
In recent years, federal and state regulations governing air and water quality and the transport and storage of hazardous wastes, and requirements for implementing the Americans with Disabilities Act have come into play. Local governments are now obliged to include enforcement of these rules and regulations in the array of responsibilities they assume for protecting the public health and welfare. 1654
Code Enforcement Definition (cont’d):
Local enforcement officials ensure compliance with policies, codes, rules, regulations and permits in a proper, timely fashion within the limits of the law. Officials must be fully acquainted with the adoption process and the thinking behind the regulations they enforce as well as the legal limits placed on them. Conversely, those who write the laws must understand the problems particular to enforcement and administration as the codes and regulations are implemented. The Code Enforcement Official is a unique public servant whose responsibility lies squarely between policy making and the realms of law enforcement and litigation. Enforcement applies laws to specific properties, either by using warnings and notices to persuade voluntary compliance or by filing court actions. Elected and Enforcement Officials are obligated to understand the management of the code enforcement function and the entire complex process. 1655

RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends that the Successor Agency adopt Resolution 2024-01 SA.
BACKGROUND:
Pursuant to Health and Safety Code (the “HSC”) Section 34172(a)(1), the Community Redevelopment Agency of the City of Banning was dissolved on February 1, 2012. Consistent with the provisions of the HSC, the City Council of the City of Banning previously elected to serve in the capacity of the Successor Agency. The Oversight Board has been established pursuant to HSC Section 34179 to assist in the wind-down of the dissolved Redevelopment Agency.
Per HSC Section 34177(o)(1), the Successor Agency is required to prepare a ROPS before each twelvemonth fiscal year period. Pursuant to HSC Section 34180(g), Oversight Board approval is required for the establishment of each ROPS. Pursuant to HSC Section 34177(o)(1), an Oversight Board-approved ROPS 24-25 A and B for the period of July 1, 2024 through June 30, 2025 must be submitted to the State Department of Finance, State Controller’s Office and to the County Auditor-Controller not later than February 1, 2024. The Oversight Board will approve the establishment of ROPS 24-25 A and B.
The Successor Agency staff has prepared the proposed Recognized Obligation Payment Schedule for the period of July 1, 2024, through June 30, 2025 ("ROPS 24-25"), substantially in the form shown in Exhibit "A", attached hereto and incorporated herein by this reference.

FISCAL IMPACT:
Per HSC Section 34177, the Successor Agency is legally required to continue to make payments due for enforceable obligations.

CITY OF BANNING
STAFF REPORT
TO: CITY COUNCIL
FROM: Douglas Schulze, City Manager
PREPARED BY: Doug Schulze, City Manager
MEETING DATE: February 13, 2024
SUBJECT: Consider of Stagecoach Days Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) RECOMMENDATION:
A motion to notify Stagecoach Days Association of the City's intent to extend the current MOU for one year with a termination date of June 21, 2025. A second motion directing the City Manager to work with the Stagecoach Days Association President to negotiate a new MOU that will be effective June 22, 2025, upon City Council approval.
BACKGROUND:
The Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) between the City of Banning and Stagecoach Days Association became effective June 22, 2021. The MOU term is three years from the effective date, with a two-year automatic extension, unless a party gives notice to the other party, not less than sixty (60) days prior to such anniversary date, that the term of the MOU shall not be extended. Therefore, if the City Council desires to not extend the MOU for years 4 and 5, notice must be given no later than April 25, 2024.
During the December 12, 2023 meeting, City Council created an ad hoc committee (Mayor Pro Tem Minjares and Councilmember Wallace) to meet with Stagecoach Days Committee members to discuss concerns. Mayor Pro Tem Minjares has reported positive outcomes from the meeting and recommended extension of the MOU for one year. In addition, it is recommended that during the next year, a new MOU should be drafted to provide more clarity regarding responsibilities and expectations of each party.
JUSTIFICATION:
Stagecoach Days is designated as a signature event in Banning. As the largest and longest running annual community celebration in Banning, continuation of the annual celebration is a priority.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Extension for one year will commit the City to direct financial support of $30,500, event insurance and inkind contributions capped at $10,000.
ALTERNATIVES:
1) Take no action - MOU will automatically extend for two years; 2) Adopt recommended motions - MOU extended for one year and new MOU will be negotiated; 3) Motion to notify Stagecoach Days Association of intent to terminate MOU effective immediately - No commitment from City to support Stagecoach Days with direct or in-kind contributions.

CITY OF BANNING
STAFF REPORT
TO: CITY COUNCIL
FROM: Douglas Schulze, City Manager
PREPARED BY: Doug Schulze, City Manager
MEETING DATE: February 13, 2024
SUBJECT: Consideration of Resolution 2024-25, Creating a Community Revitalization Investment Authority to Operate within the Community, and Making Certain Findings and Taking Certain Actions in Connection Therewith, and Resolution 2024-02 SA, Making Certain Findings Relating to the City of Banning's Creation of a Community Revitalization Investment Authority to Operate within the Community
RECOMMENDATION:
1) That the Successor Agency adopt Resolution 2024-02 SA; and 2) That the City Council adopt Resolution 2024-25.
BACKGROUND:
The Community Revitalization and Investment Authority (CRIA) in California, established by Assembly Bill 2 in 2015, offers several benefits for designated districts. CRIA works by enabling tax increment financing to fund projects within a designated Revitalization Area. As developers and businesses improve properties in the investment area, the higher appraised value results in greater property tax assessment. This increased revenue is then allocated directly to the CRIA for use only within the investment area. The CRIA can be created by a resolution of the governing body of a city or county, and once formed, it can conduct a variety of activities, including funding infrastructure improvements, affordable housing projects, seismic retrofits, property acquisition, tenant improvements, and undertaking brownfield cleanup
The CRIA is intended to provide a source of tax increment funding for infrastructure and housing in disadvantaged communities, and it does not require a public vote for creation or issuance of bonds. The CRIA's sponsoring jurisdiction can provide a loan to the CRIA in the interim period while the revenue is generated. Overall, the CRIA offers a way to revitalize areas without raising taxes, providing a sustainable way to fund much-needed projects.
Some of the key benefits include:
1. Increased Funding for Affordable Housing: CRIAs increase funding for and production of affordable housing in disadvantaged communities, with a mandatory affordable housing set-aside of 25%.
2. Powers of Eminent Domain: CRIA's entail the powers of eminent domain for the first 12 years, which can be used to acquire private property for public use with fair compensation to the property owner.
3. No Public Vote Required: Unlike some other financing districts, CRIAs do not require a public vote for creation or issuance of bonds, although they are subject to a majority protest at adoption.
4. Tax Increment Financing: CRIA's use tax increment funds to finance projects within a designated 1689
Revitalization Area, providing a mechanism for funding community improvements and economic development.
5. Job Creation and Training: The CRIA program can also lead to job creation and training opportunities through community revitalization and cleanup efforts, as evidenced by grants from the EPA's Brownfields Jobs Training Program.
The process for creating a Community Revitalization and Investment Authority (CRIA) in California involves several steps, as outlined by the California Government Code and various local government resources:
1. Feasibility Analysis: Conduct a feasibility analysis to determine if the creation of a CRIA is suitable for the community. This process has been completed.
2 . Community Outreach: Hold public informational meetings and provide notice of informational meetings to property owners and residents, typically at least 10 days prior to the meeting. City Council has previously completed this process. As a result, Council directed the City Manager to discuss creation of a joint City/County District with Riverside County. Meetings were held with Riverside County staff from 5th District Supervisor Gutierrez' office as well as staff from the County Executive's Office. Riverside County staff expected some additional incentive from the City. The conditions required by the County for partnership in the CRIA would render the CRIA financially infeasible for the City.
3. Resolution by Governing Body: A single-member CRIA (City only) may be created by resolution of the governing body. This is the next step required in the process, if Council desires to proceed.
4. Adoption of Revitalization Plan: Once formed, the CRIA board adopts a Revitalization Plan, which outlines the activities the CRIA will undertake, such as funding infrastructure improvements, affordable housing projects, seismic retrofits, property acquisition, tenant improvements, and undertaking brownfield cleanup. CRIA funds could be used for implementation of the recently adopted Downtown Revitalization and Complete Streets Plan.
5. Board Composition: The CRIA is governed by a board, typically made up of at least 3 members of a legislative body and 2 public members.
JUSTIFICATION:
A Community Revitalization Investment Authority (CRIA) will provide tools to achieve City Council goals of cleaning up the Ramsey Street corridor and creating a vibrant downtown.
FISCAL IMPACT:
CRIA funding capacity is estimated in the range of $23 to $46 million in present value terms.
ALTERNATIVES:
1. Approve Resolutions as recommended;

RESOLUTION 2024-25
A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF BANNING, CALIFORNIA,
CREATING A COMMUNITY REVITALIZATION INVESTMENT AUTHORITY TO OPERATE
WITHIN THE COMMUNITY, AND MAKING CERTAIN FINDINGS AND TAKING CERTAIN
ACTIONS IN CONNECTION THEREWITH
WHEREAS, the California Legislature approved Assembly Bill 2 (Stats. 2015, c. 319, as amended), and thereby enacted Part 1 (commencing with Section 62000) of Division 4 of Title 6 of the Government Code (the “CRIA Law”) to create a planning and financing tool for local governments to address areas characterized by unsafe or unhealthy buildings in which persons live or work, conditions that make the viable use of buildings or parcels difficult, high business vacancies and lack of employment opportunities, and inadequate public improvements, water, or sewer utilities; and
WHEREAS, the CRIA Law authorizes cities to create a public body, corporate and politic known as a “Community Revitalization Investment Authority” (“CRIA”) to operate in the community, and to grant the CRIA jurisdiction to carry out a community redevelopment revitalization plan (“Plan”) within a community revitalization investment area (“Plan Area”); and WHEREAS, a CRIA may be created by the adoption of a resolution by the legislative body of a city, and the composition of the CRIA’s governing board is comprised of three (3) appointed members of the legislative body, and two (2) appointed members of the public that live or work within the Plan Area; and,
WHEREAS, a CRIA is an “agency” as described in subdivision (b) of Section 16 of the California Constitution for purposes of receiving tax increment revenues, with the powers and duties set forth in Government Code Section 62002, which include, but are not limited to: providing funding to rehabilitate, repair, upgrade, or construct infrastructure; providing for low- and moderate-income housing in accordance with Part 2 (commencing with Section 62100) of Division 4, Title 6 of the Government Code; remediating or removing a release of hazardous substances pursuant to the Polanco Redevelopment Act; providing for seismic retrofits or existing buildings in accordance with applicable laws and regulations; acquiring and transferring real property; issuing bonds in conformity with Article 4.5 (commencing with Section 53506) and Article 5 (commencing with Section 53510 of Chapter 3 of Part 1 of Division 2 of Title 5 of the Government Code; borrowing money, receiving grants, or accepting financial or other financial assistance from the state or federal governments, or any other public agency or private lending institution; making loans or grants for owners of tenants to improve, rehabilitate, or retrofit buildings or structures within the Plan Area; and providing direct assistance to businesses within the Plan Area in connection with new or existing facilities for industrial or manufacturing uses; and, WHEREAS, following its creation, a CRIA is required to adopt a Plan that includes the elements set forth in Section 62003 of the Government Code, and a CIRA may carry out the adopted Plan within a Plan Area that satisfies the conditions and requirements set forth in subsections (d) or (e) of Section 62001 of the Government Code; WHEREAS, a CRIA’s adoption of a Plan must be considered at three (3) public hearings held at least thirty (30) days apart, and such public hearings must comply with the procedural and substantive requirements set forth in Section 62004 of the Government Code; 1691
Resolution 2024-25
WHEREAS, a CRIA formed by a city that created a redevelopment agency that was dissolved pursuant to Part 1.85 (commencing with Section 34170) of Division 24 of the Health & Safety Code may not become effective until the successor agency of the former redevelopment agency has adopted findings of fact that satisfy the requirements of subsection (b)(3) of Section 62001 of the Government Code; and,
WHEREAS, the City of Banning is a California general law city located in Riverside County; and,
WHEREAS, following the dissolution of the Banning Redevelopment Agency, the City has had difficulty remediating blighted conditions existing throughout the community, encouraging private investment and development in the area, attracting new to and retaining existing businesses in the community, funding vital development and infrastructure improvements, and providing affordable housing opportunities and programs for its residents, among other things; and,
WHEREAS, the City Council of the City of Banning therefore desires to create a CRIA to operate within its jurisdiction boundaries to address these issues, to support the economic revitalization of the community, and to address geographical areas within its boundaries marked by deteriorated buildings, conditions that make the viable use of buildings or parcels difficult, high incidents of business vacancies and unemployment, and inadequacies in public improvements and utilities; and,
WHEREAS, contemporaneously with adoption of this Resolution, the Successor Agency of the Former Banning Redevelopment Agency has adopted a Resolution making the findings required by subsection (b)(3) of Section 62001 of the Government Code; and, WHEREAS, all other legal prerequisites to the adoption of this Resolution have occurred.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of Banning as follows:
SECTION 1. The foregoing recitals are true and correct and incorporated herein this Resolution as substantive findings.
SECTION 2. Pursuant to Part 1 (commencing with Section 62000) of Division 4 of Title 6 of the Government Code, the City Council hereby creates, and authorizes and declares the existence of, a community revitalization investment authority within the City of Banning, to be known as the Banning Community Revitalization Investment Authority, a public body, corporate and politic (the “Authority”).
SECTION 3. The Authority is hereby authorized and directed to prepare and adopt a community revitalization and investment plan that complies with and satisfies the requirements of Section 62003 of the Government Code (“Authority Plan”), and is further authorized and directed to implement and carry out said plan within a community revitalization investment area that complies with and satisfies the requirements of subdivision (d) of Section 62001 of the Government Code (“Authority Plan Area”). The Authority is authorized and directed to take any and all actions necessary and appropriate to identify, prepare, and adopt the Authority Plan and Authority Plan Area.
SECTION 4. The City Council hereby appoints the following three (3) members of the City Council to the Governing Board of the Authority Governing Board (“City Council Members”):

Resolution 2024-25
Member 1:
Member 2:
Member 3:
SECTION 5. The City Council Members shall appoint two (2) public members to the Governing Board of the Authority, and such persons shall either reside in or work within the Authority Plan Area (“Public Members”). City staff is hereby authorized and directed to prepare a draft Authority Plan (“Draft Plan”) for consideration by the Authority, and between publication of the notice for the first public hearing required by subsection (c) of Section 62004, and the date of the first public hearing on the Authority Plan, the City Council Members shall accept nominations for and make appointments of the Public Members to the Governing Board of the Authority. Such nominations and appointments of the Public Members shall be completed in the manner directed by the City Council Members. The Authority may, on its own initiative, or it shall upon the direction of the City Council, adopt rules and regulations governing the manner and method of future appointments to the Governing Board of the Authority, as well as the terms of office of members of the Governing Board of the Authority.
SECTION 6. Following its adoption of a Plan in accordance with Section 62004 of the Government Code, the Authority is hereby authorized and empowered to do all of the actions and activities authorized by the CRIA Law, including but not limited to those set forth in Section 62002 of the Government Code.
SECTION 7. This Resolution is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act pursuant to Section 15061(b)(3) of the CEQA Guidelines, as it can be seen with certainty that the actions authorized by this Resolution will not have an impact on the environment, in that the Authority’s adoption of the Authority Plan and Authority Plan Area are subject to future discretion of the Governing Board of the Authority, and the Authorities contents and scope of the Authority Plan and Authority Plan Area are too speculative at this time to enable environmental review.
SECTION 8. The City Clerk shall certify to the adoption of this resolution and shall cause a certified resolution to be filed in the book of original resolutions.
PASSED, APPROVED AND ADOPTED this 13th day of February 2024.

Executive Summary
Communicating in a Digital World
2 • City of Banning has potential for private sector investment and development across multiple opportunity site areas in the City
• Investments in critical infrastructure and property assemblage, particularly in the Downtown / Ramsey Street area, are needed to support investment and economic revitalization • A public/private financing strategy that includes Tax Increment Financing (TIF) financing in the form of a Community Revitalization and Investment Authority (CRIA) has been evaluated by staff and consulting firm Kosmont to be well-suited to capture value from new development to fund acquisition and infrastructure costs, particularly due to eminent domain authority of CRIA • CRIA funding capacity is estimated in the range of $23 to $46 million in present value terms (25% of funding being set aside for affordable housing uses, or $6 to $11 million) 1700
Executive Summary (Continued)
Communicating in a Digital World
3 • City staff and consultants have had multiple discussions with County of Riverside staff and elected officials, and the conditions required by the County for partnership in the CRIA would render the CRIA financially infeasible for the City
• It is thus suggested that the City proceed with CRIA implementation without the County • Purpose of today’s meeting is to formally create the CRIA entity and appoint City Councilmembers to the CRIA governing board
• Next steps include drafting the guiding CRIA Plan, followed by a set of public meetings and hearings to present and vet the CRIA Plan with the community • Completion of the CRIA formation process is anticipated in the Fall of 2024 1701

18 Potential Cash Flow / Debt Issuance Approaches
• Kosmont Financial Services is in active discussions with public finance underwriters regarding CRIA debt issuances in other jurisdictions
• Underwriters have proposed several approaches for the leverage of CRIA tax increment for accelerated debt issuance (e.g., 2-3 years from CRIA formation), for example:
a) CRIA increment only
b) Overlapping CRIA and CFD (CFD Backstop) – landowners / developers must be willing to pay CFD special taxes in the short term (e.g., 5-10 years) until CRIA increment reaches a level to cover debt service
c) CRIA increment with City or County general fund backstop • There are advantages and disadvantages with each approach (e.g., upfront proceeds available, public agency risk, cost of capital)
• Additional alternatives are available if private sector partners (e.g., landowners / developers are willing to advance infrastructure funding in exchange for reimbursement from CRIA proceeds)

TOTAL FEES: $23,370.00
Furthermore, the Fee Waiver would cover costs incurred by the City's contracted Licensed Surveyor.
However, the request does not cover any Building or Public Works Permit Fees or Inspections, Development Impact Fees (DIF), or other ancillary costs (e.g., miscellaneous permit fees, utility account connections, landscape inspections, etc.). Plan Check and Permit Fees associated with future housing units are also not included in this Fee Waiver estimate.
If granted by the City Council, any fees that exceed the waiver of $20,000.00 would be the responsibility of the Applicant, Habitat-for-Humanity.
JUSTIFICATION:
According to the Public Policy Institute of California, The share of Californians saying, ‘housing or homelessness is the top issue facing the state’, has increased sharply and residents in all major regions express concern about housing affordability and homelessness. Californians spend disproportionate shares of their income on housing and about half say housing costs are a financial strain, which is a much higher share than 15 years ago. Affordability is a greater challenge in coastal areas, where two-thirds of Californians reside and a majority of Los Angeles residents, young adults, and African Americans have considered moving further Inland, due to the rise in housing costs. (Sources: Longitudinal data from PPIC Statewide Surveys, 2001–19).
This "Inland Migration" has been experienced by the City of Banning as seen through development of the Atwell project, which has sold over one-thousand homes since initial construction in March of 2020.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The fee waiver will have an impact (and reduction) to the City's General Fund in the amount of at least $20,000.00, with the total amount realized within Fiscal Year 2023/2024 (by June 30, 2023).
ALTERNATIVES:
1. Adopt Resolution 2024-27, authorizing a waiver of fees in an amount not to exceed $20,000 for Habitat-for-Humanity of the San Gorgonio Pass, associated with the processing of a Tentative Parcel Map (TPM) on three parcels located at the southwest corner of Wilson St and 8th Street in the City of Banning, CA. (APNs: 540-033-045; -046; and -047).
2. Approve the fee waiver request, but in a reduced amount to be determined by the City Council.
3. Do not approve the fee waiver request and provide alternative direction to Habitat-for-Humanity.
4. Continue the item and request that staff to provide additional research or information, as directed by the City Council.

CITY COUNCIL REPORT
TO: CITY COUNCIL
FROM: Douglas Schulze , City Manager
MEETING DATE: January 14, 2020
SUBJECT: Resolution 2020-8, Authorizing Waiver of Fees for Habitat for Humanity to construct a Single -Family Residence ( SFR) located at Lot No. 17 (APN: 541- 042- 010), Wilson St. in the City of Banning, CA
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Staff recommends the City Council adopt Resolution 2020- 8, authorizing waiver of fees for Habitat for Humanity to construct a SFR at Lot No. 17; which is located on Wilson St. in the City of Banning.
BACKGROUND:
Habitat for Humanity is a not for profit organization that specializes in refurbishing and constructing new homes for low income residents in the community. Habitat for Humanity has been engaged in the San Gorgonio Pass Area for the past nineteen years.
This not for profit has completed several homes within the City of Banning and recently engaged on another property; which is referenced herein. During the September 10, 2018 City Council meeting, an affordability covenant was executed to cover the cost of the fee waiver for a previous property; however, this funding source is no longer available to the City.
The requested fee waiver would incorporate the City’s application fees for Plan Check Review, Permits, Inspections, and Development Impact Fees ( DIF). The application of the WRCOG TUMF and WRMSHCP related impact fees are likely not applicable or waived based upon the implementing ordinances, respectively; however, the City does not administer either of these fee programs and the Community Development Department only collects the MSHCP impact fees as a “ pass through” to the Regional Conservation Authority ( RCA).
The total fee estimate is calculated by staff to be approximately $ 20,000; which is inclusive of the fees referenced above. This amount is only an estimate as plans have 2031734
Staff Report: Resolution 2020- 8

yet to be transmitted for plan check, inspections have not been conducted, and construction has not commenced.
JUSTIFICATION:
The Governor has declared a “ Housing Crisis” and signed 18 bills to increase housing production across all income categories in California. The provision of low cost and Affordable Housing is in short supply and the addition of new housing construction to the City’s existing housing stock provides for a wide range of economic benefits.
FISCAL IMPACT :
The fee waiver will have an impact to the City’s General Fund in the amount of approximately $ 20,000 realized within Fiscal Year 19/20.
OPTIONS:
1. Approve as recommended.
2. Do not approve and provide alternative direc tion.

CITY OF BANNING
STAFF REPORT
TO: CITY COUNCIL
FROM: Douglas Schulze, City Manager
PREPARED BY: Caroline Patton, Administrative City Clerk MEETING DATE: February 13, 2024
SUBJECT: Discussion of Policy to Prohibit Use of Personal Cell Phones on Dais During Meetings
RECOMMENDATION:
A motion directing the City Manager to prepare a policy prohibiting the use of personal cell phones on the dais during public meetings.
BACKGROUND:
Council Member Flynn requested a future agenda item to discuss the use of personal cell phones on the dais. Many city councils have debated the issue of personal digital device use on the dais and some have adopted policies ranging from complete bans on use of personal devices to voluntarily turning off devices during meetings. However, it is frequently recognized that use of electronic devices is necessary because a growing number of cities no longer use printed agenda materials. In fact, many inland empire cities have transitioned to electronic agendas only.
While receiving text messages during meetings isn’t illegal, it could create legal problems if a council member receives a message pertaining to a quasi-judicial matter during a hearing if the message is not shared. Generally, city councils have recognized, at a minimum, the value of having personal digital devices for emergency communications with family members and care givers.
JUSTIFICATION:
A City Council policy and amendment to the Manual of Procedures would be appropriate, if the City Council supports a policy prohibiting the use of personal cell phones on the dais during meetings.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Staff time involved with preparation of a policy and resolution is estimated to be less than 10 hours at an average hourly rate of approximately $80 for a total cost of less than $1,000.
ALTERNATIVES:
1. Direct City Manager to prepare a policy and resolution prohibiting use of cell phones on the dais during public meetings.
2. Take no action.

CITY OF BANNING
STAFF REPORT
TO: CITY COUNCIL
FROM: Douglas Schulze, City Manager
PREPARED BY: Art Vela, Public Works Director
MEETING DATE: February 13, 2024
SUBJECT: Discuss Adding a City of Banning Identifier to the San Gorgonio Avenue Overpass
RECOMMENDATION:
Discuss adding a City of Banning identifier to the San Gorgonio Avenue Overpass and provide direction to staff.
BACKGROUND:
Many City’s have begun to add architectural features including their names (“City Identifier”) on overpasses along interstates. These City Identifiers provide an opportunity for city’s to brand, create recognition and provide a positive image for existing and future residents and visitors traveling to and by their city’s, which could aid in additional economic development.
The City of Banning could add a City Identifier to the San Gorgonio overpass an enjoy those same benefits. In the limited research conducted by Public Work staff, it appears that a cost range for such an improvement could range from $500,000 to $1,500,000 depending on the design. The biggest challenge for this project would be funding. Funding sources could include grants (e.g. Clean California, etc.), finance districts (e.g. Infrastructure Finance Districts, etc.) and local funds. As of today the City does not have any funds allocated to this project.
If a majority interests exists, City Council could consider a few options:
Option #1: Do nothing.
Option #2: Direct staff to research grant opportunities and apply for grants as they become available.
Some grants may require a match, which could be funded by local funds or other sources.
Option #3: Direct staff to procure architectural services to develop several architectural renderings to choose from and to develop high level cost estimates. The results of these efforts could assist in bolstering the City’s grant applications.
The three options above are not intended to be an exhaustive list of options, but only those that would not require a large funding commitment at this time.
JUSTIFICATION:
A City Identifier on the San Gorgonio Avenue overpass could provide the City various benefits as described in this report.
1738
FISCAL IMPACT:
The cost for the preparation of a grant application(s) would range from $10,000 to $25,000 depending on the requirements of the grant guidelines and level of effort.
The cost for the preparation of architectural renderings and estimates would range from $20,000 to $30,000.
ALTERNATIVES:
1. Direct to move forward with one of the options listed in this report.
2. Provide alternative direction to staff.
