5. Acceptable insurers. All insurance policies shall be issued by an insurance company currently authorized by the Insurance Commissioner to transact business of insurance or is on the List of Approved Surplus Line Insurers in the State of California, with an assigned policyholders’ Rating of A- (or higher) and Financial Size Category Class VII (or larger) in accordance with the latest edition of Best’s Key Rating Guide, unless otherwise approved by the CITY’s risk manager.

6. Waiver of subrogation. All insurance coverage maintained or procured pursuant to this agreement shall be endorsed to waive subrogation against CITY, its elected or appointed officers, agents, officials, employees and volunteers or shall specifically allow CONTRACTOR or others providing insurance evidence in compliance with these specifications to waive their right of recovery prior to a loss. CONTRACTOR hereby waives its own right of recovery against CITY, and shall require similar written express waivers and insurance clauses from each of its subconsultants.

7. Enforcement of contract provisions (non estoppel). CONTRACTOR acknowledges and agrees that any actual or alleged failure on the part of the CITY to inform CONTRACTOR of non-compliance with any requirement imposes no additional obligations on the CITY nor does it waive any rights hereunder.

8. Requirements not limiting. Requirements of specific coverage features or limits contained in this Section are not intended as a limitation on coverage, limits or other requirements, or a waiver of any coverage normally provided by any insurance. Specific reference to a given coverage feature is for purposes of clarification only as it pertains to a given issue and is not intended by any party or insured to be all inclusive, or to the exclusion of other coverage, or a waiver of any type. If the CONTRACTOR maintains higher limits than the minimums shown above, the CITY requires and shall be entitled to coverage for the higher limits maintained by the CONTRACTOR. Any available insurance proceeds in excess of the specified minimum limits of insurance and coverage shall be available to the CITY.

9. Notice of cancellation. CONTRACTOR agrees to oblige its insurance agent or broker and insurers to provide to CITY with a thirty (30) day notice of cancellation (except for nonpayment for which a ten (10) day notice is required) or nonrenewal of coverage for each required coverage.

10. Additional insured status. General liability policies shall provide or be endorsed to provide that CITY and its officers, officials, employees, agents, and volunteers shall be additional insureds under such policies. This provision shall also apply to any excess/umbrella liability policies.

11. Prohibition of undisclosed coverage limitations. None of the coverages required herein will be in compliance with these requirements if they include any limiting endorsement of any kind that has not been first submitted to CITY and approved of in writing.

12. Separation of insureds. A severability of interests provision must apply for all additional insureds ensuring that CONTRACTOR’s insurance shall apply separately to each insured against whom claim is made or suit is brought, except with respect to the insurer’s limits of liability. The policy(ies) shall not contain any cross-liability exclusions.

13. Pass through clause. CONTRACTOR agrees to ensure that its subconsultants, subcontractors, and any other party involved with the project who is brought onto or involved in the project by CONTRACTOR, provide the same minimum insurance coverage and endorsements required of CONTRACTOR.

CONTRACTOR agrees to monitor and review all such coverage and assumes all responsibility for ensuring that such coverage is provided in conformity with the requirements of this section. CONTRACTOR agrees that upon request, all agreements with consultants, subcontractors, and others engaged in the project will be submitted to CITY for review.

14. CITY’s right to revise requirements. The CITY reserves the right at any time during the term of the contract to change the amounts and types of insurance required by giving the CONTRACTOR a ninety (90) day advance written notice of such change. If such change results in substantial additional cost to the CONTRACTOR, the CITY and CONTRACTOR may renegotiate CONTRACTOR’s compensation.

15. Self-insured retentions. Any self-insured retentions must be declared to and approved by CITY. CITY reserves the right to require that self-insured retentions be eliminated, lowered, or replaced by a deductible. Self-insurance will not be considered to comply with these specifications unless approved by CITY.

16. Timely notice of claims. CONTRACTOR shall give CITY prompt and timely notice of claims made or suits instituted that arise out of or result from CONTRACTOR’s performance under this Agreement, and that involve or may involve coverage under any of the required liability policies.

17. Additional insurance. CONTRACTOR shall also procure and maintain, at its own cost and expense, any additional kinds of insurance, which in its own judgment may be necessary for its proper protection and prosecution of the Work.

XI. CONTRACTOR’S LICENSE

Staff Report

TO: City Council
FROM: Elizabeth Gibbs, Interim City Manager
DATE May 17, 2022
SUBJECT: Establishing 2 x 2 Committee Meetings for Recycled Water

Background and Analysis:

At the City Council meeting of May 3, 2022, a presentation was given by Albert A. Webb Associates on the Recycled Water Project at the Wastewater Treatment Plant. The discussion included confirmation that the City will in fact be producing recycled water b y the end of 2022.

Because the City is not a permitted distributor of recycled water, the next steps in this project will likely need to include the Beaumont Cherry Valley Water District and/or the San Gorgonio Pass Water Agency. Both agencies had representatives from their respective boards at the meeting and several of those representatives spoke during the item’s public comments. The consensus of the public and City Council was moving forward with a cooperative effort of all stakeholders involved in providing recycled water, as required by the Santa Ana Regional Water Quality Control Board.

To that end, direct and frequent communication must take place between the elected officials from each agency. To that achieve that goal, 2 x 2 committee meetings ar e suggested until such time as the agencies have an agreed upon plan. City Council recently appointed Mayor White and Mayor Pro Tem Martinez to a recycled water subcommittee to represent the City on all matters related to recycled water. Staff recommends City Council reaffirm those appointments and direct staff to schedule meetings with each agency, individually.

Fiscal Impact:

None.

209
Item 16.

Recommended Action:

Staff recommends City Council reaffirm Mayor White and Mayor Pro Tem Martinez to a 2 x 2 committee on recycled water and direct staff to schedule individual meetings with two elected officials from, Beaumont Cherry Valley Water District and San Gorgonio Pass Water Agency.

“Good Neighbor” Policy for Logistics and
Warehouse/Distribution Uses”
F – 3 1 of 10

Purpose:

The logistics industry is a well-established sector of the Riverside County economy that has contributed to local job growth, fueled by societal growth trends in e-commerce and coupled with our strategic location along a major trade corridor that connects to the Ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach. It is expected that Riverside County will continue to see strong demand for growth in the logistics industry. However, it is also recognized that the construction and operations of logistics and warehouse projects in close proximity to residences or other sensitive land uses (“sensitive receptors”) may negatively affect the quality of life of those existing communities. Sensitive receptors generally include residences, schools, parks, playgrounds, community centers, assisted living, day care centers, nursing homes, hospitals, and similar uses.

This policy provides a framework through which large-scale logistics and warehouse projects can be designed and operated in a way that lessens their impact on surrounding communities and the environment. It is meant to apply Best Management Practices to help minimize potential impacts to sensitive receptors and is intended to be used in conjunction with the County’s Land Use Ordinance, which provides development requirements for said projects, and the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA).

This policy does not replace the need for preparation of the appropriate project-specific environmental review and application of any necessary measures that may arise out of that review. This policy provides a series of development and operational criteria that can be implemented to supplement project-level mitigation measures, in order to further reduce impacts related to logistics and warehousing development and operations.

The application of this policy is intended to be included in the conditions of approval as part of individual development projects. This will provide a mechanism by which applicants and the public are made aware of how these guidelines are specifically implemented on a project by project basis, and will provide an opportunity for County staff to monitor the individual conditions of approval. The following policies are organized into specific categories, to address these potential quality of life issues from the initial design process, to construction, and through operations.

The policy guidelines apply to new projects submitted after the policy approval date, and will be implemented during the land use review process on a district by district basis. [1] Applicability
This policy applies to logistics and warehouse projects that include any building larger than 250,000 square feet in size with more than 20 loading bays. It is intended to provide 254

a general guidance that will be appropriate for most industrial and warehouse projects larger than 250,000 square feet in size with more than 20 loading bays. Project-level review under CEQA would continue to apply to any projects, regardless of their square footage and size, and which may include technical reports including, but not limited, noise, air quality, and traffic related impact evaluations. The Planning Department shall use this policy to review industrial projects and in instances where a project does not conform to the policy shall document findings to be considered by the Planning Commission and Board of Supervisors. The hearing body (Planning Commission or Board of Supervisors) has the discretion and authority to approve projects that deviate from the guidance provided in this policy, subject to site-specific conditions (such as the specifics of site topography, proximity of adjacent sensitive receptors, and other relevant factors), appropriate environmental review, and other factors that the Board may consider.

Studies / Analysis:

1.1 An “Air Quality” study shall be prepared in accordance with the Air Quality Management District (AQMD) guidelines which includes both project specific and cumulative impact analysis.

1.2 A “Health Risk Assessment” shall be prepared when a proposed warehouse/distribution facility is located within 1,000 feet of a sensitive receptor, in accordance with AQMD guidelines.

1.3 A “Noise Impact Analysis” shall be prepared for use during the land use entitlement review process to evaluate potential impacts to the neighboring properties. The analysis shall include construction and operations-related noise impacts, including stationary and off-site increases to ambient noise levels.

1.4 A “Construction Traffic Control Plan” shall be prepared prior to grading, which details the locations of equipment staging areas, material stockpiles, proposed road closures, and hours of construction operations. This is in addition to a Traffic Impact Study as may be required for the environmental review process.

Construction Phase:

2.1 During construction of the warehouse/distribution facility, all heavy duty haul trucks accessing the site shall have CARB-Compliant 2010 engines or newer approved CARB engine standards.

2.2 All diesel fueled off-road construction equipment greater than 50 horsepower, including but not limited to excavators, graders, rubber-tired dozers, and similar “off-road” construction equipment shall be equipped with CARB Tier 4 Compliant engines. If the operator lacks Tier 4 equipment, and it is not available for lease or short-term rental within 50 miles of the project site, Tier 3 or cleaner off-road construction equipment may be utilized subject to County approval.

2.3 The maximum daily disturbance area (actively graded area) shall not exceed 10 acres per day. Non-Grading construction activity in areas greater than 10 acres is allowed.

2.4 Construction contractors shall utilize construction equipment, with properly operating and maintained mufflers, consistent with manufacturers’ standards.

2.5 Construction contractors shall locate or park all stationary construction equipment so that the emitted noise is directed away from sensitive receptors nearest the project site, to the extent practicable.

2.6 The surrounding streets shall be swept on a regular basis to remove any construction related debris and dirt.

2.7 Appropriate dust control measures that meet the SCAQMD standards shall be implemented for grading and construction activity.

2.8 Construction equipment maintenance records and data sheets, which includes equipment design specifications and equipment emission control tier classifications, as well as any other records necessary to verify compliance with items 2.1-2.7 above, shall be kept onsite and furnished to the County upon request.

2.9 Construction Contractors shall prohibit truck drivers from idling more than five (5) minutes and require operators to turn off engines when not in use, in compliance with the California Air Resources Board regulations.

2.10 During construction, the Transportation & Land Management Agency representative shall conduct an on-site inspection with a facility representative to verify compliance with these policies, and to identify other opportunities to reduce construction impacts.

Siting and Design:

3.1 Warehouse/distribution facilities should be generally designed so that truck bays and loading docks are a minimum of 300 feet, measured from the property line of the sensitive receptor to the nearest dock door using a direct straight-line method.

This distance may be reduced if the site design include berms or other similar features to appropriately shield and buffer the sensitive receptors from the active truck operations areas. Other setbacks appropriate to the site’s zoning classification shall be incorporated in the design.

3.2 Warehouse/distribution facilities shall be designed to provide adequate on-site parking for commercial trucks and passenger vehicles and on-site queuing for trucks that is away from sensitive receptors. The general queuing and spill-over of trucks onto surrounding public streets shall be prevented. Commercial trucks shall not be parked in the public road right-of-way or nearby residential areas.

3.3 Truck driveways shall generally be placed, on streets that do not have fronting sensitive receptors.

3.4 Sites shall clearly mark entry and exit points for trucks and service vehicles.

3.5 Sites shall be densely screened with landscaping along all bordering streets and adjacent sensitive receptors, with trees spaced no further apart than 25 feet on center. Fifty percent of the landscape screening shall include a minimum of 36- inch box trees. Facility operators will be responsible to establish a long-term maintenance mechanism to assure that the landscaping remains in place and functional in accordance with the approved landscaping plan. 257

3.6 On-site speed bumps shall not be allowed except at security/entry gates. Truck loading bays and drive aisles shall be designed to minimize truck noise.

3.7 Dock doors shall be located where they are not readily visible from sensitive receptors or major roads. If it is necessary to site dock doors where they may be visible, a method to screen the dock doors shall be implemented. A combination of landscaping, berms, walls, and similar features shall be considered.

3.8 An additional “wing-wall” shall be installed perpendicular to the loading dock areas to further attenuate noise related to truck activities and also address aesthetics by screening the loading area when adjacent to sensitive receptors.

3.9 To the extent possible, establish separate entry and exit points within a warehouse/distribution facility for trucks and vehicles to minimize vehicle/truck conflicts.

3.10 All lighting used in conjunction with a warehouse/distribution facility operations, shall be directed down into the interior of the site and not spill over onto adjacent properties.

3.11 Warehouse/distribution facilities shall install electrical panels and conduit to facilitate future electrical connections, to eliminate idling of main and auxiliary engines during the loading and unloading process. At all cold storage facilities electrical connections shall be provided to each dock.

3.12 Facility construction shall comply with the hours of operation and exterior noise decibel levels as required by Riverside County Ordinance No. 847 (“Noise Ordinance”)

Operations:

4.1 Facility operators shall maintain records of their facility owned and operated fleet equipment and ensure that all diesel-fueled Medium-Heavy Duty Trucks (“MHDT”) and Heavy-Heavy Duty (“HHD”) trucks with a gross vehicle weight rating greater than 19,500 pounds accessing the site use year CARB compliant 2010 or newer 258

Community Benefits:

6.1 Applicants for proposed warehouse/distribution facilities shall engage in a community outreach effort to engage the existing community in determining issues of concern that can be addressed through site design and other means during the project land use entitlement process. Suggested outreach efforts include but are not limited to, hosting community meetings, making presentations at Municipal Advisory Councils and Community Councils, and hosting job fairs.

6.2 Additionally project applicants shall post on-site notice in accordance with Planning Department requirements during the Notice of Preparation stage of the EIR, in order to provide opportunity for early public comment. Said on-site notice shall include a link to a project website provided by the applicant and the Planning Department’s Notice of Preparation link. Website should include information such as a complete and accurate project description, maps and drawings of the project design, and directions for how communities can provide input. The website should be in a format that is easy to navigate and understand.

6.3 Applicants for proposed new facilities should look beyond their immediate development footprint and look for opportunities to enhance the surrounding community through upgrades such as street paving, walls, landscaping, or other types of infrastructure improvements. On-site and off-site upgrades and improvements which offset potential air quality impacts, based on a showing of substantial evidence by means of a technical report as determined by the County, shall reduce the supplemental funding contribution policy listed in Section 6.4.

On-site and off-site upgrades and improvements which could offset potential air quality impacts, include, not are not limited to:

• Project design features that directly offset NOx reductions above and beyond what is required by existing air quality regulations;
• Project design features that generally improve air quality such as paving of dirt roads, installation of additional trees, landscaping, and air filters for sensitive receptors;
• Provision of additional buffers between the new facility and sensitive receptors, in addition to those setbacks required pursuant to Section 3.1 herein; and 261

• Project design features that lead to reduced emissions by promoting alternate forms of transportation such as bicycle lanes, new sidewalks, bus turnouts, or other transit-related uses.

6.4 Given the potential for community impacts related to the construction and operation of logistics and warehouse facilities, the applicant for any new facility may be required to provide a supplemental funding contribution, which would be applied to further off-set potential air quality impacts to the community and provide a community benefit above and beyond any CEQA related mitigation measures.

Said financial contribution would generally be determined by the Transportation and Land Management Agency based on the level of nitrogen oxides (NOx) emissions generated by the project that exceeds the regional NOx significance thresholds established by the appropriate AQMD. Said supplemental funding contribution will be collected on a one-time basis. Funds collected under said supplemental funding program will be subject to designation for use by the Board of Supervisors, and will generally be used for projects that directly benefit the impacted community wherein the project is located. The types of projects that the Board of Supervisors may designate for use of these funds include, but are not limited to:

• Projects that directly offset NOx reductions above and beyond what is required by existing air quality regulations;
• Projects that generally improve air quality such as paving of dirt roads, installation of additional trees , landscaping, and air filters for sensitive receptors;
• Provision of additional buffers between the new facility and sensitive receptors, in addition to those setbacks required pursuant to Section 3.1 herein; and
• Projects that lead to reduced emissions by promoting alternate forms of transportation such as bicycle lanes, new sidewalks, bus turnouts, or other transit-related uses.

6.5 The County recognizes that the South Coast Air Quality Management District is studying and considering the implementation of a mitigation fee program that would apply to logistics and warehouse uses. Should South Coast AQMD adopt a mitigation fee program that covers similar uses to achieve additional air quality 262
