NOW, THEREFORE BE IT PROCLAIMED, that the City Council of the City of Beaumont hereby proclaims the Month of October 2023 as Breast Cancer Awareness Month to raise public awareness in recognition of the illness and its effects. Encouraging women, esp ecially, to be conscious of the benefits of early detection, diagnosis, and treatment of breast cancer.

BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that the City Council in a powerful display of support calls upon all City of Beaumont employees to don in pink attire throughout October to raise awareness for breast cancer and show solidarity with those affected by this disease. In support of this effort city employees will wear pink every Wednesday and the Beaumont Police Department will display the Breast Cancer Awareness Pink Patch on their uniforms.

Staff Report

TO: City Council
FROM: Christina Taylor, Deputy City Manager
DATE September 19, 2023
SUBJECT: Second Reading of an Ordinance Temporarily Suspending Off -Street Parking Requirements for Existing Non-residential Structures in the Downtown District a as identified in the Downtown Districts Map

Description A request by the Planning and Economic Development Departments to establish an ordinance temporarily suspending off-street parking requirements for existing, non-residential structures in the Downtown District as defined by the Downtown District’s map boundaries. The proposed ordinance would be in effect for a period not to exceed eighteen (18) months.

Background and Analysis:

Over the past several years, staff has been making incremental progress on assessing the needs of downtown businesses. In 2018, the City adopted an Economic Development Strategic Plan. In 2020, the City received a grant for a Parking Management Master Plan. In 2021, the General Plan Update was adopted. In 2022, at the direction of City Council, the City’s Economic Development Department began the process of developing the Downtown Beaumont Revitalization Plan (DBRP) and in 2023, City Council engaged in developing a Strategic Plan. Each of these have contributed to the evaluation of and adjustments to how City staff approaches various processes and programs.

One of the main programs staff is currently running through the Economic Development Department are the Downtown Incentives. These provide an array of financial and staff assistance to current and future businesses. As staff conducts site visits and reviews proposals, various issues have been identified as barriers to opening a business.

Programs are currently in place to assist with many of these issues such as pre- inspections and pre-application fee waivers, grease interceptor cost sharing and façade improvements. In addition to these, a program for helping with fire sprinkler installation and/or retrofit is being proposed this evening as part of tonight’s agenda.

With programs in place to address the bulk of the structural issues, on -site parking requirements remain a barrier to many businesses. A majority of the lots and buildings in the Downtown District (Attachment B) were created and constructed decades ago.

Current parking standards were adopted in 2007 and are applied City wide. These standards do not take into consideration the site constraints of downtown properties and are not conducive to facilitating revitalization in downtown.

The City Council has adopted a number of documents which contain goals or action items to implement throughout the City. The following are a few goals or actions related to Downtown:

Economic Development Strategic Plan (2018)

ENTREPRENEURIAL DEVELOPMENT
D. Incorporate real estate development / revitalization programs into entrepreneurial development programs, as appropriate to the extent that entrepreneurs’ space -using options are currently constrained.

REAL ESTATE DEVELOPMENT AND REVITALIZATION/REDEVELOPMENT A. Continually monitor coordination efforts between the General Plan and other research work and economic development objectives and actions. For example:
• Explicitly relate planned commercial/industrial areas to industry targets and the City’s overall economic development approach.
• Show how areas designated for revitalization relate to economic development targets and programs.
• Show how the repurposing of certain structures/areas can support startup companies.

The intent of this ongoing monitoring effort would be to ensure that the City’s various development-related policies remain in sync and, when appropriate, to make future policy adjustments to maximize the alignment of these closely related programs.

C. Create and market incentives for redevelopment / revitalization of older properties (potentially including non-financial incentives such as expedited entitlements and permit processing)
E. As appropriate, contact the owners of commercial properties that might benefit from revitalization efforts to assess interest and potential partnerships or other forms of public support to achieve revitalization / redevelopment goals.

PLACEMAKING
B. Identify and promote actions to encourage the placemaking potential of the Downtown area within the framework of the Downtown Specific Plan.

General Plan (2021)
Goal 5.1: A dynamic local economy that attracts diverse business and investment.

5.1.5 Maintain a regulatory environment that is business friendly, easy to navigate, flexible and encourages growth consistent with the General Plan.

5.1.7 Support a variety of revitalization and improvement programs focused on placemaking and beautification, such as façade improvements, public gathering places, public art, and community events. (Also see Land Use and Community Design Element).

Goal 5.4: A community that supports the growth and prosperity of local businesses.

5.4.3 Encourage investment and focus revitalization efforts in Downtown and along Beaumont Avenue and Second Street corridors to have the most positive impact on existing businesses and to capitalize on the potential of a walkable mixed -use commercial center in the community.

Goal 5.5: A community with vibrant shopping areas.

5.5.7 Create development regulations that facilitate adaptive reuse of older buildings.

Parking Management Master Plan (2021)
Short-Term Recommendations (1-2 years)
3) Lower parking requirements for the downtown area
The Parking Management Master Plan identified a parking surplus of 828 spaces on - street and off-street, in the Downtown Core Subarea which aligns with the Downtown District shown in Attachment B.

City Council Strategic Plan (2023)
Priority Level 3 Goals:
 Develop a pedestrian style downtown with shopping, restaurants, and parking (Target #3, Goal #2)
 Recruit and attract businesses, including an anchor tenant, downtown hotel, and medical providers (Target #3, Goal #4)
 Revisit the City’s Municipal Codes and Zoning (Target #3, Goal #6) Through the revitalization efforts and incentive program applications, staff has encountered instances where a property has no parking or very minimal parking on -site.

This means in many cases a business cannot occupy a property or cannot expand their existing business to add space, due to the parking requirements. This is a particular issue in the heart of downtown.

As the DBRP nears completion, the Planning Department is beginning the process of updating the City’s zoning code. As part of both of these processes, utilizing previous

and current data, downtown parking standards (among other things) will be assessed, and revisions recommended.

In the interim, to assist with continuing progress on meeting Council’s goals and to facilitate continued interest in the downtown, staff is proposing temporary relief (not exceeding 18 months), from parking standards, specific to existing, non -residential structures in the Downtown District while the DBRP and Zoning Code Update are completed.

Planning Commission
At a public hearing held on August 23, 2023, this item was presented to the City’s Planning Commission. There were no public comments on this item. Planning Commission concurred with staff and forwarded a recommendation of approval to City Council.

Environmental Determination
In accordance with California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines, Section 15304(e), adoption of this ordinance is categorically exempt from CEQA, because it results in a minor, temporary alteration in the use of land which will have no permanent effect on the environment. Fiscal Impact: The cost to prepare this staff report and ordinance is approximately $1,000.

At the September 5, 2023, City Council meeting, the Council by a vote of 5 -0 waived the first full reading and approved the ordinance.

Fiscal Impact:

The cost to prepare this staff report and ordinance is approximately $1,000.

Recommended Action:

Waive the second full reading and approve by title only “An Ordinance of the City Council of the City of Beaumont Temporarily Suspending Parking Requirements for Existing, Non-residential Structures in the Downtown District for a Period not to Exceed Eighteen (18) Months.”

DISTRICTS MAP FOR A PERIOD OF EIGHTEEN
(18) MONTHS

WHEREAS, there are vacant buildings in downtown Beaumont built in decades past which cannot be utilized for their intended uses due to lacking the number of parking spaces required by the City’s current parking requirements; and WHEREAS, Vacant buildings are a threat to public peace, health, safety and welfare as they contribute to blight, are a drain on City resources and fail to generate much needed business activity in downtown Beaumont.

WHEREAS, The City of Beaumont is in the process of preparing a Downtown Revitalization Plan and updating the zoning code, both of which envision a City structure that enhances the quality of life of the residents, enhances the health safety and welfare of the community, meets the community’s vision for the future, and connects new growth areas together with established Beaumont neighborhoods; and WHEREAS, Current parking requirements do not support the City’s goals of achieving revitalization in the Downtown and promoting a vibrant, walkable environment and promoting the aesthetic and fiscal health of the community.

WHEREAS, a duly noticed public hearing was conducted on this ordinance as required by law by the Planning Commission on August 23, 2023; and WHEREAS, the City Council of the City of Beaumont has reviewed the reasons for the recommendation of approval by the Planning Commission as described above;

THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF BEAUMONT DOES HEREBY ORDAIN AS FOLLOWS:

Staff Report

TO: City Council
FROM: Carole Kendrick, Planning Manager
DATE September 19, 2023
SUBJECT: Second Reading of an Ordinance Amending the Beaumont Municipal Chapter 17.08 “Nonconforming Uses”

Description Second reading for amendments to Nonconforming Uses Chapter 17.08 of the Beaumont Municipal Code.

Background and Analysis:

Planning staff is proposing updates to the Nonconforming Uses section of the Beaumont Municipal Code to address issues that have been identified recently with several properties, in addition to reducing the period of time in which a nonconforming use or structure can be considered legal nonconforming.

Nonconforming is described in Beaumont Municipal Code Chapter 17.14.060 and generally describes nonconforming uses as previously approved uses that are no longer allowed in the zone. Nonconforming structures are previously permitted structures that may no longer be allowed in the zone and/or do not comply with current development standards.

There have been several instances where a nonconforming use has failed to keep a current business license for a year or longer, but due to the language in the current Nonconforming Uses section of the Municipal Code, staff has been unable to deny renewals for nonconforming uses. The proposed addition of “legal” use and “fails to keep a current business license” will provide staff with the ability to enforce the current zoning code and encourage business owners to keep their business licenses valid.

The loss of nonconforming status is recommended to go from one (1) year to six (months) consistent with most jurisdictions including the surrounding cities of Calimesa, Banning, San Jacinto and Hemet.

Clarifying language has been added to Section 17.08.030.A.1 to include accessory structures and/or improvements that continue the nonconformity. The recommended language will address concerns raised during the building permit plan review process.

Section 17.08.030.B.1 has been updated to reflect the following changes:

Additions to Structures that are 25 percent or Less of the Total Floor Area Excluding Garages. An enlargement, extension, reconstruction or structural alteration of a structure that is nonconforming and does not exceed 25 percent of the existing total floor area, excluding garages, may be allowed if the additions or improvements conform to all other applicable provisions of the development code, and the exterior limits of the new construction do not exceed the applicable height limit or encroach any further into the setbacks than the comparable portions of the existing building. If the nonconforming structure is in a residential zone, the applicant shall provide a certified notification letter to any applicable homeowner association and all adjacent property owners 14 days in advance of approval of a zoning clearance. This provision can only be used once e very five years. Any additional changes to structure which exceed s a total of 25 percent within five years from the issuance of a building permit may be allowed with subject to approval of a conditional use permit approval.

The proposed modifications to the Nonconforming Uses section of the Beaumont Municipal Code will further advance the vision for the Downtown and the 2040 General Plan and discourage the long-term continuance of nonconformities.

CEQA:

The City has analyzed this proposed project and has determined that is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) under section 15061(b)(3) of the CEQA Guidelines, which provides that CEQA only applies to projects that have the potential for causing a significant effect on the environment. The proposed ordinance in itself does not relate to any physical project and will not result in any physical change to the environment and does not affect the land use or density limitations of the General Plan. Therefore, it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that this ordinance may have a significant adverse effect on the environment, and therefore, the adoption of this Ordinance is exempt from CEQA pursuant to Section 15061(b)(3) of the CEQA Guidelines.

Public Communications Received:

A 10-day public notice was placed in the Press Enterprise on August 11, 2023. At the time of report preparation, the Planning Department has not received any letters of comment from the public in favor or opposition to the project. Any comments received prior to the time of the scheduled City Council meeting will be provided to the Council at the time of the public hearing. Proof of publication is included as Attachment C to this staff report.

Planning Commission:

The Beaumont Municipal Code Section 17.02.080.E authorizes the Planning Commission to recommend to the City Council approval, approval with modifications, or denial of the proposed application. The amended nonconforming language was presented to the Planning Commission during a public hearing on August 23, 2023. The Planning Commission by a vote of 3-0 is recommending approval of the amendments to Nonconforming Uses Chapter 17.08 of the Beaumont Municipal Code.

City Council Authority:

The Beaumont Municipal Code Section 17.02.080.G states that upon receipt of a Planning Commission resolution recommendation for approval of a change of zone or zoning ordinance amendment, or denial of a zoning ordinance text amendm ent, the City Clerk shall set the matter for hearing before the City. At the hearing, the City Council shall review the Commission's recommendation and receive evidence as to how or why the proposed change of zone or zoning ordinance text amendment is cons istent with the objectives of this Zoning Ordinance, the City of Beaumont General Plan, and development policies of the City. The City Council shall act to approve or deny the application by resolution.

At the September 5, 2023, City Council meeting, th e Council by a vote of 5-0 waived the first full reading and approved the proposed amendment.

Findings:

The Beaumont Municipal Code Section 17.02.080.I requires the City Council to make the following findings of fact before approving a change of zone or zoning ordinance text amendment:

1. That the proposed change of zone or zoning ordinance text amendment is consistent with the goals, policies, and objectives of the General Plan.

The proposed modification to the ordinance is consistent with the goals, policies, and objectives of the General Plan. The proposed amendment will further assist the City in realizing the vision for the Downtown that is included in the 2040 General Plan as Chapter 11.

2. That the proposed change of zone or zoning ordinance text am endment will not adversely affect surrounding properties.

The proposed zoning ordinance text amendment will not adversely affect surrounding properties as it will discourage the use of nonconforming uses and structures.

3. That the proposed change of zone or zoning ordinance text amendment promotes public health, safety, and general welfare and serves the goals and purposes of this Zoning Ordinance.

The proposed zoning ordinance text amendment promotes public health, safety, and general welfare and serves the goals and purposes of the Zoning Ordinance.

The reduction in the time that a nonconforming use or structure can retain the pre-existing status will further assist the City in implementing the 2040 General Plan.

Fiscal Impact:

The cost to prepare this staff report is approximately $300.00.

Recommended Action:

Waive the second reading and adopt by title only “An Ordinance of the City Council of the City of Beaumont Amending the Beaumont Municipal Code Chapter 17.08 ‘Nonconforming Uses’.”

FROM: Robert Vestal, Interim Public Works Director
DATE September 19, 2023
SUBJECT: First Amendment to the Professional Services Agreement with SGH Architects for the City Hall Renovations Project, in an Amount Not to Exceed $48,875 – Capital Improvement Project (CIP) CF-104

Description Approve an amendment to the professional services agreement with SGH Architects for the City Hall Renovations Project, in an amount not to exceed $48,875.

Background and Analysis:

The City Hall Renovations Project will provide various improvements to City Hall.

These improvements include renovations to existing restrooms; the addition of a new restroom and mother’s room; new office and cubicle spaces; new customer service counters; new roofing; and upgrades to HVAC, plumbing, electrical, fire sprinklers, and fire alarm systems.

On August 3, 2021, the City approved a Professional Services Agreement with SGH Architects for the design of the City Hall Renovations project. The design portion of the agreement was completed in January of 2023. The design scope also included construction administration services, including RFI and submittal review, preparation of revised drawings, change order review, and record drawings.

In March of 2023 the construction contract was awarded to Dalke Construction.

Throughout construction, SGH Architects has continued to provide construction administration services. Additional items have come up during construction that have extended the scope of the construction services. These include the design of extensive ADA ramp improvements; and preparation of construction bulletins and revised drawings for fire rated walls, additional HVAC ducting, additional plumbing and electrical changes, and changes to office wall framing. Additional construction support services and RFI reviews have also been necessary due to unforeseen conditions during construction.

SGH Architects has provided a scope and fee for these additional construction administration services. An amendment to the professional services agreement is recommended to cover these costs.

Project Status Update:

SGH Architects is continuing to review RFI’s, approve construction submittals, and provide construction bulletins and revised drawings for construction changes. They recently provided revised drawings for changes to wall framing and HVAC and are currently finalizing design changes to the ADA ramps. Construction is anticipated to be substantially complete by the end of the year.

Fiscal Impact:

The following table provides an overview of the current project funding, project budget, and remaining budget.

Staff Report

TO: City Council
FROM: Carole Kendrick, Planning Manager
DATE September 19, 2023
SUBJECT: Code Amendment to Several Sections within Chapter 17 of the Beaumont Municipal Code to Establish Objective Design Standards

Description Presentation of the Public Hearing Draft of the Objective Design Standards and Ordinance Amendment to modify amend Chapter 17.03.060 “Residential, Single-Family Zone”, Chapter 17.06.065 “Residential, Traditional Neighborhood”, Chapter 17.09.040 “Downtown Mixed-Use Zone”, Chapter 17.19.060 “Sixth Street Mixed-Use Zone”, and Chapter 17.19.070 “Sixth Street Mixed-Use Residential Zone” to establish Objective Design Standards in the Beaumont Municipal Code
Background and Analysis:

In Fall 2021, the preparation of the administrative draft of objective design standards began during the period of the preparation of the 6 th Cycle Housing Element Update.

Due to anticipated changes to the Objective Design Standards in relation to the adoption of the 6th Cycle Housing Element, the process was paused until the certification of the Housing Element.

On December 12, 2022, the State of California, Department of Housing and Community Development adopted the City of Beaumont 6th Cycle Housing Element. The City’s 6th Cycle Housing Element Program 19 identifies that the Planning Department shall facilitate the adoption of Objective Design Standards for residential and mixed -use projects. The purpose of these standards is to expedite the approval process for such projects and support the City in meeting its housing goals.

The draft Objective Design Standards were developed utilizing the following sources:

 The City’s existing development and design standards;  Design guidance as expressed in the City’s various area plans (e.g., Fairway Canyon, Sundance, Heartland “Olivewood”;
 Images and observations of existing context/built environment;

 The August 2022 Draft Western Riverside Council of Governments Objective Design Standards Toolkit; and
 Best practice recommendations.

The changes are proposed primarily in single family residential and mixed-use zones that include:

 Residential Single Family (RSF)
 Residential Traditional Neighborhood (RTN)
 Downtown Mixed-Use (DMU)
 Sixth Street Mixed-Use (SSMU)
 Sixth Street Mixed-Use Residential (SSMUR)

The recommended standards include façade articulation, compatibility with adjacent buildings, entries, materials, and parking design/access. The design standards will not alter basic development standards (e.g., density, setbacks, overall building height, lot coverage, parking ratios, etc.) or include standards for architectural style, window placement and design, privacy, roof design, building colors, or other standards not listed above.

The proposed Administrative Draft complies with requirements in applicable law, including SB 35 and SB 330.

On May 10, 2023, the Planning Commission conducted a work study to review the administrative hearing draft of the Objective Design Standards. The City Council also conducted a work study on May 16, 2023. The consultant has made modifications to the proposed Objective Design Standards based on the feedback that was provided at both work study meetings. The hearing draft, as shown in Attachment B, is the updated clean copy of the Objective Design Standards and a redlined version is provided as Attachment C to the staff report.

The Planning Commission conducted a public hearing to review the public hearing draft of the Objective Design Standards at their August 23, 2023, meeting. At the public hearing, the Planning Commissioners briefly discussed the item after the consultant’s presentation and by a vote of 3-0 forwarded a recommendation of approval to the City Council.

On September 5, 2023, the City Council opened the public hearing, received a brief staff report and continued the item with no discussion to the September 19, 2023, City Council meeting.

CEQA:

The City has analyzed this proposed project and has determined that i t is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) under section 15061(b)(3) of the CEQA Guidelines, which provides that CEQA only applies to projects that have the potential for causing a significant effect on the environment. The proposed ordinance in itself does not relate to any physical project and will not result in any physical change to the environment and does not affect the land use or density limitations of the General Plan. Therefore, it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that this ordinance may have a significant adverse effect on the environment, and therefore, the adoption of this Ordinance is exempt from CEQA pursuant to Section 15061(b)(3) of the CEQA Guidelines.

Public Communications Received:

A combined Planning Commission and City Council 10-day public notice was placed in the Press Enterprise on August 11, 2023. At the time of report preparation, the Planning Department has not received any letters of comment from the public in favor or opposition to the project. Any comments received prior to the time of the scheduled City Council meeting will be provided to the Council at the time of the public hearing. Proof of publication is included as Attachment D to this staff report.

Planning Commission Authority:

The Beaumont Municipal Code Section 17.02.080.E authorizes the Planning Commission to recommend to the City Council approval, approval with modifications, or denial of the proposed application. The Commission’s recommendation shall be transmitted to the City Clerk for scheduling the matter for consideration by the City Council.

Fiscal Impact:

The cost to prepare this staff report is approximately $500.00.

Recommended Action:

Hold the continued Public Hearing; and
Waive the first full readings and approve by title only “An Ordinance of the City Council of the City of Beaumont, California to Amend Chapter 17.03.060 ‘Residential, Single- Family Zone’, Chapter 17.06.065 ‘Residential, Traditional Neighborhood’, Chapter

Staff Report

TO: City Council
FROM: Elizabeth Gibbs, City Manager
DATE September 19, 2023
SUBJECT: Consider Adopting a Resolution Waiving the Special Event Permit Application Fee and Police Department Charges for Service for the 33rd Annual Oktoberfest Event at Noble Creek Regional Park

Description Fee waiver request from the Beaumont Cherry Valley Recreation and Park District.

Background and Analysis:

Beaumont Cherry Valley Recreation and Park District (BCVRPD) has submitted a request for consideration of waiving the special event permit application fee and police services fees for their 33rd annual Oktoberfest event held on September 15th – 17th at Noble Creek Regional Park.

The special event permit application fee is deposit-based set at $5,000. Applicants deposit $5,000 with the City at the time of application submittal and then any staff time spent reviewing the application and drafting required conditions of approval are then charged against the deposit. Any remaining balance once the process is completed and the permit issued would then be refunded to the applicant. Staff costs for BCVRPD’s application for the Oktoberfest event are $1,345.81.

Historically, BCVRPD is invoiced for any police services provide d for this event. Those costs generally range from $2,500 to $3,000 and are based on actual time paid to employees to cover the event. This year’s estimated charge for police services is approximately $3,500. Actual costs will be calculated once the event concludes.

BCVRPD is requesting a waiver of both the special event permit application fee and police services fees for the 2023 Oktoberfest.

Fiscal Impact:

The total amount of fees requested to be waived for the 33 rd Annual Oktoberfest is approximately $4,845.81. City staff estimate the cost to prepare this report is $154.

Recommended Action:

Staff recommends City Council consider waiving the special event permit application fees ONLY, and
Waive the full reading and adopt by title only, “A Resolution of the City of Beaumont Authorizing the Waiver of a One-Time Special Event Permit Application Fee for the 33 rd Annual Oktoberfest Event at Noble Creek Regional Park.”

DATE September 19, 2023
SUBJECT: Approve a Five-Year Software and Services Agreement with Sun Ridge Systems, Inc. for the Replacement of the Police Department’s CAD/RMS System for a Total of $968,596

Description Request to approve the purchase of a replacement Computer Aided Dispatch and Records Management System (CAD/RMS) for the Police Department.

Background and Analysis:

In June 2019, the Beaumont Police Department contracted with Mark43 for Computer Aided Dispatching (CAD) and Records Management Software (RMS). At the time, Mark43 was a new CAD/RMS service in California that showed potential in its promised capabilities. Since transitioning to Mark43, the service has failed to meet the needs of the Beaumont Police Department. There have been extensive and ongoing efforts by the Department to work with Mark43 to correct deficiencies, but their system continues to underperform. The five-year contract with Mark43 expires June 30, 2024.

The Beaumont Police Department desires to replace an underperforming system with an updated system that better meets the needs of the Beaumont community in terms of access, reporting, and analysis and more effectively enables the Department to comply with new and emerging data collection and reporting requirements.

The CAD/RMS system is one of the most critical software systems used by any law enforcement agency. Accurate records and data retrieval are essential for effective police duties and management. Reporting accurate crime data is a fundamental expectation of the community, and the Beaumont Police Department wants to continue meeting that expectation with the most effective available technology.

The Department is seeking an integrated CAD/RMS solution that offers the capability to comply with existing and upcoming mandates, capture ongoing statistical data, accurately measure performance, better equip first responders with relevant information, reduce report writing time, and thus free up resources, enhance internal

cross-training, and be technologically progressive. A key to this procurement is obtaining one fully integrated solution from a single vendor.

Sun Ridge Systems is a California-based company that has been providing CAD/RMS service to law enforcement agencies throughout the state for over 38 years under the product name RIMS. RIMS has a proven track record for being an efficient and effective system, and every agency contacted that uses RIMS provided positive reviews. The Beaumont Police Department has evaluated RIMS and has determined that its product meets all current and future needs of the Department. Unlike Mark43, which provides a subscription service, RIMS is licensed software that will be owned by the City.

Sun Ridge Systems has presented a contract that breaks down the purchase into five annual payments of $127,243 for a total purchase cost of $636,215. The annual support costs will be $66,450. The annual cost will be $193,824 for year one and $193,693 for years two through five, then $66,450 for all remaining years.

The City of Emeryville has conducted an extensive evaluation and competitive bid process in determining Sun Ridge Systems RIMS was the best option for CAD/RMS services. The implementation of a new CAD/RMS system is expected to take nine to eleven months, and the current contract with Mark43 expires on June 30, 2024. Using Emeryville’s formal bid process report, Beaumont Municipal Code 3.01.110 authorizes the City to determine that the competitive bidding requirements have been completed.

Currently, the department budgets $93,000 annually for the current CAD/RMS system support.

Fiscal Impact:

The total cost of the software, equipment, accessories, programming, and training is $636,215 (five annual payments of $127,243), with an additional Annual support payment of $66,450 for a total five-year cost of $968,596.00.

During the five-year purchase payment plan, all expenses in excess of the pre-budgeted $93,000 will be paid using the Supplemental Law Enforcement Services Account (SLESA) funds. The final CADS/RMS payment has been paid in the FY24 budget, and a future budget amendment will be brought back to Council for the $93,000 General Fund cost of the new contract and the remaining $100,693 of the SLESA cost.

The estimated cost to prepare this report is $1,000.

Recommended Action:

Approve the five-year Software and Services Agreement with Sun Ridge Systems, Inc. for the purchase of a replacement CAD/RMS system in the total amount of $968,596.

However, for instances where the Licensee’s system is completely inoperable due to a Sun Ridge software problem (“critical problems”) preventing basic system operation, service will be available 24 hours, 7 days a week, common holidays included. Examples of critical problems include:
- RIMS is down/not responding on multiple workstations - Cannot create a call for service (CAD Incident)
- Cannot issue a case number
- Unable to access NCIC
- Other issues that will not allow the user to complete critical tasks Licensee will have taken reasonable measures prior to contacting Sun Ridge’s support during non-service hours including:
- Verified that the issue is not related to just 1 workstation - Restarted the workstation in question
- Contacted in-house IT support if the issue is related to network or server errors - Verified the issue is critical enough that it cannot wait until normal support hours

2. Sun Ridge’s Response to reported problems. Sun Ridge agrees to provide service and assistance as expeditiously as possible as follows:
a. Most problems will be resolved with the initial phone call or email. b. For problems that cannot be immediately resolved, Sun Ridge will work to resolve the problem based on the severity of the problem and the urgency reported by Licensee.

Sun Ridge Systems, Inc. – City of Beaumont v3 Page 17

● For critical problems, Sun Ridge personnel will work with Licensee until the situation is resolved.
● For problems that are not critical problems that have a lesser though continuing impact on operations of Licensee, Sun Ridge will endeavor to provide a solution or workaround within 72 hours of the problem being reported to Sun Ridge by the Licensee. ● For other problems Sun Ridge may, at its discretion, either issue a near term "fix release" of the product or include the fix in the next scheduled product update.

3. Licensee equipment and software responsibilities. Licensee agrees to allow Sun Ridge to remotely connect to Licensee’s system when a problem is reported. Sun Ridge uses BeyondTrust remote access software for secure installation and follow-on support services. BeyondTrust software provides superior security and does so over an ordinary internet connection via a Sun Ridge server that hosts a BeyondTrust security hardware device.

If Licensee does not allow unattended access, the Sun Ridge response to a service request may be delayed until a responsible party of the Licensee allows access. Once remote access is obtained, Sun Ridge will examine data files, investigate reported problems, and provide updates and corrections as necessary.

4. Provision of software updates. Sun Ridge will provide all new enhanced and updated versions of software licensed to Licensee at no additional cost. This software will be provided with detailed installation instructions for installation by Licensee. If desired, Licensee may retain Sun Ridge to perform any installation at additional cost to be determined on a per case basis. Updates are distributed via download from the Sun Ridge’s ftp web site. Sun Ridge will not be obligated to provide service for release versions that are more than two annual release versions older than the current release.

5. Term. The term of support services shall be one year shall be annually renewed for another year upon payment of invoice. Payment for the year is due in advance the day the services begin. Non- payment of the support invoice within 60 days shall be cause for terminating or suspending the support services at the discretion of Sun Ridge.

6. Termination. Licensee may terminate support services with or without cause upon ninety (90) days written notice to Sun Ridge. If terminated, Licensee is entitled to a prorated refund for the service days not consumed beginning on the last day of the month the written notice is received by Sun Ridge to the end of the remaining term of the Agreement.

7. Limitations. Sun Ridge agrees to provide support only for public safety application software provided by Sun Ridge. Other software used by Licensee (word processing, spreadsheet, etc.) is not included in this Agreement. PC and network operating system software and Microsoft SQL Server database system software is similarly not included, although Sun Ridge may assist Licensee in isolating problems to this software. (Sun Ridgereserves the right to charge for diagnostic services in the event it is determined that the reported issue is not attributable to RIMS.) Also

Sun Ridge Systems, Inc. – City of Beaumont v3 Page 18
specifically excluded is responsibility for administration, support, or maintenance of Licensee’ server, computer network, operating systems, or database (Microsoft SQL Server).

Licensee may request that Sun Ridge provide support services outside the limitations of this Support Services Agreement. If Sun Ridge agrees to provide any requested additional support services, such support services will be provided at Sun Ridge’s current rate and under terms and conditions that Sun Ridge may require.

This Agreement does not include equipment maintenance or assistance in diagnosing hardware problems including but not limited to PCs, printers, network, scanners, and other computer peripheral devices with the exception that Sun Ridge will assist Licensee in determining whether a problem is RIMS application software in nature.

DATE September 19, 2023
SUBJECT: Discussion to Consider an Ordinance Prohibiting the Unlawful Possession of a Catalytic Converter

Description Review proposed ordinance and provide direction to staff.

Background and Analysis:

The City of Beaumont is considering an ordinance to prohibit the unlawful possession of catalytic converters. This ordinance is being proposed in response to the recent increase in catalytic converter thefts in the City.

A catalytic converter is an emissions control device that converts harmful pollutants in exhaust gas into less harmful pollutants. Catalytic converters are made of precious metals, such as platinum, palladium, and rhodium, which are valuable and can be easily stolen.

Catalytic converter thefts have been on the rise nationwide, and California has the dubious honor of leading the country in the number of converters stolen.

The proposed ordinance would make it unlawful for any person to possess a catalytic converter that is not attached to a motor vehicle. The ordinance would also require any person who is in possession of a catalytic converter to provide immediate proof of lawful possession to law enforcement upon request. Such proof may include a bill of sale from the original owner with photographs, documentation from an auto-body shop proving the owner relinquished the catalytic converter to the auto-body shop, or other manner of proof as defined in the ordinance.

The ordinance would be enforced by the Police Department. Violators of the ordinance would be guilty of a misdemeanor and could be punished by a fine of up to $1,000 or imprisonment for up to six months, or both.

Fiscal Impact:

There is no negative impact to the general fund. The cost to prepare this staff report is estimated at $500.00.

Recommended Action:

Discuss and provide direction to staff to advertise a notice of public hearing at the next available City Council meeting.

AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
BEAUMONT, CALIFORNIA, ADDING SECTION ______ OF THE

BEAUMONT MUNICIPAL CODE ESTABLISHING REGULATIONS

PROHIBITING THE UNLAWFUL POSSESSION OF CATALYTIC

CONVERTERS IN THE CITY

WHEREAS, the citizens of the City of Beaumont have been plagued with a significant increase of catalytic converter thefts from automobiles over the past several years; and WHEREAS , catalytic converter thefts increased 1,215% from 2019 and 2022, nationwide; and WHEREAS, there is currently no City, State, or Federal legislation applicable within the City of Beaumont to define and punish catalytic converter thefts absent an identifiable victim; and WHEREAS, there is currently no City, State, or Federal legislation applicable within the City of Beaumont to prosecute the recycling or sale of unlawfully obtained catalyti c converters, thus incentivizing criminal enterprise of catalytic converter thefts without a known victim; and WHEREAS, there are currently no City, State, or Federal legislation applicable within the City of Beaumont requiring individuals to provide proof to law enforcement as to how they obtained catalytic converters, thus limiting law enforcement's ability to protect the public by preventing catalytic converter thefts and preventing law enforcement from seizing suspected stolen catalytic converters when no victim present; and
WHEREAS, catalytic converter thefts are on the rise because individuals are incentivized to commit catalytic converter thefts for multiple reasons including, but not limited to: (1) the ease and undetectable nature of committing the thefts in a matter of seconds using common tools such as a reciprocating saw, (2) the ability to recycle catalytic converters at scrap metal yards for high dollar returns ranging from $200 to $1,200 per catalytic converter, and (3) loopholes in legislation protecting criminals from prosecution unless a victim can be identified; and WHEREAS, finding a suspect of these crimes is nearly impossible due to the undetectable nature of the catalytic converter thefts and catalytic converters being untraceable to link back to a victim (no identifying markers on the catalytic converters); and WHEREAS, due to lack of legislation defining and prosecuting these thefts, many of the catalytic converter theft cases in the City of Beaumont have gone unsolved, which is fundamentally unacceptable for the citizens of the City of Beaumont; and WHEREAS, the citizens of Beaumont and the Beaumont Police Department are in need of legislation for multiple reasons including, but not limited to: (1) deterrence by establishing zero- tolerance for catalytic converter thefts, (2) sanctions for possessing stolen catalytic converters, (3) preventing criminals from profiting from the sale and recycling of stolen catalytic converters, (4) providing indirect justice to the victims of catalytic converters whose cases will go unsolved, (5) reducing Part I crime statistics which have been substantially negatively impacted by catalytic converter thefts, and (6) minimizing the fiscal and personnel impact on the City of Beaumont invested in deterring and investigating catalytic converter thefts; and

WHEREAS, individuals who are in possession of stolen catalytic converters recycle them for substantial profit while victims of these thefts suffer tremendous consequences of paying thousands of dollars in repairs, the inconvenience of repairing their vehicles, and feeling unsafe in the community; and
WHEREAS, this Ordinance is necessary to provide the City of Beaumont Police Department clearly established legal authority to protect the public and deter this criminal activity.

NOW, THEREFORE, the City Council of the City of Beaumont DOES HEREBY ORDAIN as follows:

SECTION 1. The above recitals are true and correct and incorporated herein.

SECTION 2. Section _________ of the Beaumont Municipal Code is hereby added to read in its entirety as follows:

Section ___________

UNLAWFUL POSSESSION OF A CATALYTIC CONVERTER
Sec. __________- Unlawful Possession of a Catalytic Converter.

A. It shall be unlawful to possess any catalytic converter that is not attached to a vehicle unless the possessor has valid documentation or other proof to verify they are in lawful possession of the catalytic converter.

B. For purposes of this section, "lawful possession" includes being the lawful owner of the catalytic converter or in possession of the catalytic converter with the lawful owner's written consent. It is not required to prove the catalytic converter was stolen to establish the possession is not a "lawful possession."
C. For purposes of this section, "documentation or other proof' means written document(s) that clearly identify the vehicle from which the catalytic converter originated and includes but is not limited to the following document types: bill of sale from the original owner with photographs, documentation from an auto-body shop proving the owner relinquished the catalytic converter to the auto -body shop , verifiable electronic communication from the previous owner to the possessor relinquishing ownership of the catalytic converter, photographs of the vehicle from which the catalytic converter originated, vehicle registration associated with the catalytic converter containing an etched associated license plate number or vehicle identification number. The validity of "documentation or other proof' is based on the totality of the circumstances.

D. Each and every violation of this section shall constitute a separate violation and shall be subject to all remedies and enforcement measures authorized by the Beaumont Municipal Code. Each and every catalytic converter unlawfully possessed is a separate violation of this section.

E. Each and every violation of this section may in the discretion of the District Attorney be prosecuted as a misdemeanor and upon conviction be subject to a fine not to exceed

$1,000 or imprisonment in the county jail for a period of not more than 12 months, or by both such fine and imprisonment.

F. The remedies provided herein are not to be construed as exclusive remedies. The City is authorized to pursue any proceedings or remedies provided by law.

SECTION 3. This Ordinance is exempt from the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act ("CEQA") pursuant to State CEQA Guidelines because there is no possibility that this Ordinance or its implementation would have a significant negative effect on the environment. (14 Cal.

Code Regs. § 15061(b)(3).) City staff shall cause a Notice of Exemption to be filed as authorized by CEQA and the State CEQA Guidelines.

SECTION 4. If any section, subsection, subdivision, sentence, clause, phrase, or portion of this Ordinance is for any reason held to be invalid or unconstitutional by the decision of any court of competent jurisdiction, such decision shall not affect the validity of the remaining portions of the Ordinance.

SUBJECT: Re-Appropriation of FY23 Unexpended Expenditures, Budget Overages, and Project Funding Rollovers

Description Re-Appropriation and budget adjustment.

Background and Analysis:

FY23 Unexpended Expenditures
Per the City of Beaumont Financial Management Policy, unexpended appropriations cannot be used in subsequent fiscal years unless re-appropriated by the City Council.

Unexpended expenditures result in an increase in fund balance when actual revenues exceed expenditures at the end of the FY. In the case of planned use of reserves, the reserves are left within the fund balance and are available for allocation. Re- appropriation of these funds will allow for the budgetary authorization of the requests below that were budgeted in FY23 and for various reasons could not be spent and need to be re-appropriated into the FY24 budget.

General Fund

In FY23, the City Council approved various one-time purchases within the FY23 budget.

Due to supply chain issues, shipping delays and unanticipated service delays, the items or services were not completed within FY23. Attachment A provides a detailed listing of requested carryover items for re-appropriation from the FY23 budget. The need for these items or contractual obligations should be recognized within the FY24 spending authority provided by the City Council. Below is the department needs for re - appropriation in the amount of $2,458,456. All department requests are within the FY23 original appropriated amount.

Department Amount
City Clerk $107,000
Administration $1,018,215
IT $14,314

Economic Development $709,500
Police $27,092
Building and Safety $36,275
Street Maintenance $57,133
Building Maintenance $44,077
Community Services $6,545
Parks and Grounds $196,767
TOTAL $2,216,918
Wastewater

Wastewater operations experienced similar delays and are requesting reappropriation of FY23 funds to cover receipt of items within FY24.These items are also provided in detail in Attachment A.

Department Amount
Wastewater $122,982

Internal Service Fund

The FY23 Internal Service Fund budget had appropriated vehicles within the City’s fleet as identified as needing replacement. With the lack of supply these vehicles have been difficult to obtain, however, the vehicles’ replacement need remains. City staff are requesting the Council to re-appropriate the remaining vehicles and leftover outfitting costs within the FY23 budget that were not able to be purchased nor outfitting services performed before year end. This will authorize staff to obtain these vehicles and supplemental costs when and if they become available withi n FY24. Details of the request is provided within Attachment A.

Fund Amount
Internal Service Fund - IT $3,959
Internal Service Fund – Vehicles $94,597
TOTAL $98,556

Other Special Revenue Fund

The FY23 Other Special Revenue Fund budget had miscellaneous appropriated items such as Program Costs for the Opioid Settlement as well as SB1383 Costs for the Recycling Program. Training is continuing for Opioid Abuse and the Compost Recycling video is still in the creation stage. City staff is requesting Council to re-appropriate these funds within the FY23 budget that were not able to be spent. Details of the request are provided within Attachment A.

Fund Amount
PD – Program Costs Opioid Settlement $8,000
Recycling Program – SB 1383 Costs $12,000
TOTAL $20,000

Grand Total of All Re-Appropriations = $2,458,456

Budget Overages
Per the City of Beaumont Financial Management Policy, the City Manager will have the authority to amend budgets within a departmental appropriation. When all appropriation categories have gone overbudget within a department, City Council will need to approve a budget adjustment to make the department budget whole. Attachment B is a budget adjustment form with the listing of three departments that went over budget in all categories. The total overage is $10,970.80 collectively. The funds will come from a portion of the remaining balance of the Admin Department Contingency line item in the FY23 budget. For transparency purposes, Attachment C was created to show how all departments including Transit and Wastewater faired by year end. Green highlighted departments needed amending within a departmental appropriation (City Manager approval level per policy) and the yellow highlighted departments correspond with Attachment B and are department overages that require City Council approval.

Project Funding Rollovers
Capital Improvement Projects are budgeted in the first year of programming in the Capital Improvement Plan. These funds are not always spent in the year of appropriation. Many projects span over multiple years and require reappropriation to keep within spending authority of the funds providing the funding source. Attachment D shows the detail needed to reappropriate for capital improvement projects within the CIP in the amount of $65,988,892.

Fiscal Impact:

The impact of General Fund adjustments is to increase expenditure authority by $2,216,913 and will reduce the fund balance in the General Fund by the same amount.

The impact of Wastewater adjustments is to increase expenditure authority by $122,982 and will reduce the fund balance by the same amount.

The impact of Internal Service Fund adjustment is to increase expenditure authority by $98,555 and will decrease the fund balance by the same amount.

The impact of Other Special Revenue Fund adjustment is to increase expenditure authority by $20,000 and will decrease the fund balance by the same amount.

The impact to the General Fund reserves through funds available in the FY23 Admin Budget contingency line item is $10,971

The impact of the Capital Improvement Projects is to increase expenditure authority by $65,988,892 and will reduce the fund balance by the same amount.

Recommended Action:

Approve the proposed Re-appropriation of General Fund expenditures in the amount of $2,216,913, and
Approve the re-appropriation of Wastewater expenditures in the amount of $122,982, and
Approve the proposed re-appropriation of Internal Service Fund expenditures in the amount of $98,555, and
Approve the proposed re-appropriation of Other Special Revenue Fund expenditures in the amount of $20,000, and
Approve the budget adjustment of $10,971, and
Approve the re-appropriation of Capital Improvement Projects of $65,988,892.
