1. Most of Beaumont's new housing growth has occurred in large, attractive master -planned communities that are 7-10 minutes' drive outside of Downtown; and
2. New Beaumont households were perceived by retail/dining businesses as being fueled by modest -income families searching for "affordable" single-family living.
Future demand factors, however, are favorable for Downtown revitalization, based on our competitive research, personal interviews and demand analyses conducted for this study. As of updated July, 2022 U.S. Census figures, the reported median household income of Beaumont households is nearly $100,000 a year ($92,797) —dispelling the perception that Beaumont households are "modest -income." Most households consist of families with children living in single -family -detached homes (average household size of 3.3 persons).
Our in -field interviews with numerous Beaumont home builder representatives revealed that many newer Beaumont households are driving 15 to 45+ minutes to restaurants in Palm Springs/Palm Desert, Yucaipa, and Redlands. The City of Beaumont (including Downtown) is viewed as lacking a critical mass of quality, family, and occasion -oriented dining, in comparison to competing destinations located farther away.
Our competitive dining outlet research supports this view: there are only six Downtown Beaumont dining outlets totaling 13,790 square feet and rated Yelp 4+, at an average size of only 2,298 square feet. And the massive, Freeway -10 and Highland Springs, discount -value shopping node is generally viewed as unappealing to new residents because of the prevalence of low -rated (below Yelp 4 rating), chain restaurants.
Our conservative, estimated projections of future year housing growth reveal that Beaumont will reach about 20,110 occupied households in five years (2028); 22,610 occupied households in ten years (2033); and 31,021 households at build -out (based on General Plan figures). The immediate "sphere of influence" neighborhoods will add another 9,828 households, per the General Plan figures, at build -out, for a total of 40,849 households.
Future housing growth figures for Beaumont (and its sphere of influence) are impressive. A distinct void exists to serve these households with a creative, innovative collection of non -chain dining offerings.
III. SWOT ANALYSIS
Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities And Threats Analysis Is Key To Development Implementation Strategies
The SWOT Analysis chart below summarizes the Downtown Beaumont Economic Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities and Threats. A SWOT Analysis is a useful tool for determining the optimum strategies for Downtown success. Implementation strategies should emphasize Strengths; minimize Weaknesses; and produce action steps that reduce the risk of Threats.

S Orr I1H., eel: vienefrea crlinsuCkplivN{{r T4orn fey* The highest and best economic opportunities for new development, redevelopment, and renovation include using city -owned parcels and buildings to catalyze new construction and/or building renovation to draw contemporary, independent (non -chain) restaurants, bars, and brewery operators to Downtown. The use of city -owned sites for attracting innovative dining operators has the highest probability of near -term success, given Downtown's lack of significantly -sized available sites and buildings, and the prevalence of many, small, fragmented, privately -owned parcels (see Weaknesses).
Upgrading the retail and dining sales of Downtown businesses on a permanent basis, however, will require the improvement of the City's physical weaknesses. Restaurants and quality retailers seek pedestrian -friendly downtowns. Presently, Downtown's major arterials, 6th Street and Beaumont Avenue, experience high-speed traffic flows; insufficient crosswalks and street lighting; and dangerous parking situations due to speed of vehicles along the streets. Unlike competitive cities, such as Downtown Redlands and Yucaipa, Beaumont has not yet invested in traffic -slowing physical improvements; signage and way -finding; lighting; and parking arrangements that set the stage for a safe and attractive pedestrian dining/shopping district.
L. S. Congleton & Associates
Although national "threats," such as high interest rates and high inflation, are short-term, negative, economic conditions, the City may be able to ameliorate these uncontrollable conditions by favorably ground leasing its owned parcels, and providing selective financial assistance to businesses with strong business plans.
Other potential weaknesses and threats that may be ameliorated by City staff policies, encouragement, and actions, include:
1. Providing consistent, city -initiated leadership and financial commitments;
2. Committing to a phased approach to construct, physical improvements for slowing traffic (i.e., round-abouts);
3. Committing to a phased spending and construction plan for new signage; way -finding; crosswalks; street and alley lighting; city -owned parking and directional signage; and attractive alleyway improvements to encourage outdoor dining;
4. Adjust/expand Downtown zoning sections to accommodate a broader and more flexible array of housing and mixed -use products, ranging from single family detached to attached units at 8 to 25+ units per acre, as well as mixed -use, ground floor commercial with upper -level "workforce" or studio apartments.
5. Incorporate "business friendly" economic tools, such as designating a Downtown New Business Liaison; re-evaluating the potential for stream -lining permitting procedures across departments; and establishing a "one -stop," meeting process that professionally explains all governmental requirements "up -front" in order to eliminate future step "surprises."
6. Publicize a five -to -ten year "vision" and "Downtown Strategic Plan" that outlines physical improvements, and key sites for new, innovative creative dining concepts.
IV. SURVEY OF LOCAL AND REGIONAL RETAIL SHOWS AN ARRAY OF BIG
BOX/DISCOUNT VALUE AND GROCERY/CONVENIENCE STORES ARE
SERVING RESIDENT FAMILY NEEDS WELL
We evaluated the shopping centers serving Beaumont residents, as well as reviewing the restaurants, quick foods, and cafes. We have prepared a retail competition exhibit using our field work observations; selected interviews with shopping center leasing representatives; and selected data sources, including Loopnet listings, leasing brochures and CoStar. (See Exhibits 2, 2A, 2B, 3, 3A, 3B in Appendix.)
The primary reasons for evaluating the big box and grocery -store centers serving the local area are:
1. To assess the overall "health" and vibrancy of the Beaumont area retail market; and
2. To evaluate the quality, quantity and environment of the dining and small shop offerings already found in existing centers.
Page443of744
L. S. Congleton & Associates
Big box retailers and traditional, large grocery stores (of 42,000 to over 100,000 square feet) are typically not appropriate uses for revitalizing a small village downtown. These uses do not garner pedestrian activity, nor do these uses enhance the charm of or encourage repeat customers to a downtown setting. In contrast, dining outlets and small shop retailers, frequently independently operated, are more optimal choices for revitalization efforts.

(See Exhibits 2, 2A and 2B in Appendix.) As of late 2022, there were few vacancies in the freeway -oriented, regional, big box centers, and no vacancies in the Beaumont and Calimesa grocery -store anchored centers. The tenant mixes are well -positioned for the high -growth Beaumont residential market, with a focus on family -oriented, discount/value goods and

everyday convenience needs. The Beaumont/Calimesa/Banning survey, at the time surveyed, showed a low vacancy factor of 4.2%, a healthy available space rate.
The highest vacancies, and/or available space to lease, were observed in Marketplace Beaumont and Sun Lakes Village, both on Highland Springs Avenue. As of the in -field evaluation (in late 2022), The Marketplace Beaumont had six available spaces, five of which are small shops. The largest space available was the 25,000 -square -foot Bed Bath & Beyond space, due to the retailer's national financial problems and possible bankruptcy, not because of any local location issues. The Sun Lakes Village center showed a large, 20,000 -square -foot space available, as well as two small shops vacant.
V. SURVEY OF COMPETITIVE AND LOCAL RESTAURANT OFFERINGS SHOWS
DEARTH OF HIGH -QUALITY, CLOSE -BY DINING TO SATISFY BEAUMONT
RESIDENT DESIRES AND FAMILY -ORIENTED OCCASION NEEDS
In today's highly competitive dining environment, social media reviews are instrumental to long- term success —particularly to attract repeat resident customers and out-of-town visitors. Yelp is the most used source, with Google and Tripadvisor also used. During our field work, we evaluated the exterior and interior finishings of the restaurants in the competitive market, and summarized those dining establishments with the top ratings. Many patrons, particularly younger and first-time diners, will not try a dining establishment without a minimum Yelp or Tripadvisor rating of 4.0.
Within the Downtown core area, there are only six dining establishments rated 4.0 or higher on Yelp or Tripadvisor:
1. Cornerstone BBQ-4.5 Yelp: excellent take -away BBQ with sparse outdoor dining area.
2. Cafe Agape -4.5 Yelp: "trailer -like," drive -up, take -away, local coffee outlet with wide variety of coffee and tea selection, high quality. No indoor or outdoor dining area.
3. The Craft Lounge -5.0 Yelp. Local craft beer bar/lounge; owner partners with food vendors; numerous evening entertainment events.
4. Frijoles Mexican Restaurant -4.0 Yelp: Adjacent to City Hall; traditional Mexican menu; indoor and outdoor dining.
5. Tuscanos Pizza & Pasta -4.0 Yelp: Take -away pizza, party trays, small informal interior; owner also has larger restaurants in Yucaipa and La Quinta.
6. Ramona's Restaurant -4.0 Tripadvisor: Free-standing, 5,000 -square -foot, 51 -year -old traditional Mexican restaurant.

About six minutes from the heart of Downtown are three other small highly rated dining offerings:
1. Fuego Cravings -4.0 Yelp: a quick food establishment with modern interior specializing in birria.
2. Domenico's Italian Kitchen -4.0 Yelp: a suburban, small, take -away and sit-down traditional sports bar and family -oriented Italian restaurant, with large outdoor patio in Oak Valley Plaza, anchored by Rite Aid.
3. Two Ladds Bakery -4.5 Yelp: Small, excellent bakery with fresh baked goods, sandwiches, crepes, and drinks in suburban setting on border of Cherry Valley and Beaumont, on Beaumont Avenue.
Surprisingly, there are few highly -rated dining outlets in the big box regional -serving centers off Highland Springs Avenue in Beaumont and Banning. The following are three stand -out offerings, all very small with sparse interiors, all within one center: Sun Lakes Village.
1. Patsy's Country Kitchen -4.0 Yelp: Generous traditional breakfast/lunch offerings in traditional diner setting; open only until 3:00 p.m.
2. Surin Thai Restaurant -4.5 Yelp: Moderate -priced, solidly good Thai food in small outlet with modest interiors.
3. Darumaya-4.5 Yelp: Excellent Japanese food in very small, simple table setting.
It is noteworthy that the large -chain restaurants in the big box centers are generally not highly rated.

The Marketplace at Calimesa, (an eight -minute drive from Downtown), located at Cherry Valley Boulevard and Freeway 10, serves many of the residents living in Beaumont's, golf -course neighborhoods nearby. In this center, is a modest -sized, free-standing, family -oriented outlet with a burger and beer menu:
1. Fire Rock Burgers & Brews -4.0 Yelp: Limited burger/beer menu, with periodic live entertainment; contemporary interior and attractive outdoor seating.
The Fire Rock Burgers & Brews represents the only new, (open 2021) free-standing, full - service restaurant located near Beaumont's newer, master -planned residential neighborhoods.
Built by Lewis Retail Centers, the Marketplace at Calimesa is a new shopping center facing Freeway 10, north of Beaumont, technically in the City of Calimesa but serving both Calimesa and Beaumont/Cherry Valley area residents.
Two notable restaurants on Myrtlewood Drive are located a short drive off the Freeway 10 in Calimesa:
1. The Haus Bistro (Yelp 4.5): An attractive, American/European restaurant/beer bar, full - service restaurant with friendly service; and
2. 21 Sushi House (Yelp 4.0): A sizable full -service Japanese restaurant.
The Haus Bistro specializes in schnitzel, and offers a range of fish, chicken and beef entrees and lunch sandwiches. This restaurant is one of the few nearby dining offerings with an imaginative, creative, contemporary interior, as well as presenting attractive outdoor furniture, within a short drive time from Downtown.
Downtown or "Uptown" Yucaipa, (a 15 -to -20 -minute drive time away), provides numerous creative and newly entrepreneurial dining destinations, including:
1. Hops and Spokes Brewing Company -4.5 Yelp: A newly -opened craft brewery with a creative, contemporary interior; large lounge/bar; recently open since Covid-19 pandemic.
2. Woodhaus-4.5 Yelp: A new, small, wood -fired pizza outlet adjacent to Uptown Wine Merchant.
3. Uptown Wine Merchant -4.5 Yelp: Attractive, new wine bar allowing customers to bring in pizza from adjacent operation.
4. Kluddes Smokehouse & Brews -4.0 Yelp: A new smokehouse/brewery in a former building that was a renovated "bank vault."
Although Yucaipa has about the same population in 2021 as Beaumont (about 55,000 people), that city has more highly -rated restaurants. In addition to the above restaurants, there are at least six other restaurants and quick foods rated 4.0 Yelp and higher, including the large, contemporary Bella & Yang Chinese and Sushi Bar on 5th Street. Other restaurants include the soda -fountain, "Disneyesque Main Street" -like decorated," Grandlund's Restaurants &
Page447of744
L. S. Congleton & Associates
Candies; and Yu Thai Pa, a small, modest Thai restaurant; and Ocean Pho, a small Vietnamese outlet. Other Yucaipa, highly rated take -away outlets include Italia Bella and Damasco Mediterranean Cuisine, both rated 5.0 on Yelp.
The City of Yucaipa benefits from Southern California regional visitors traveling to the Oak Glen area, especially during the apple -picking season, weekends, and holiday periods. It also has a small array of "historic" or interesting, older buildings for businesses to renovate. For example, the 4.5 Yelp -rated Jitters Coffee House in Yucaipa is housed in a tiny, charming old building.
VI. FUTURE -YEAR, CITY, BUILD -OUT DEMAND SUPPORTS ABOUT 22 RESTAURANTS IN DOWNTOWN. SERVING RESIDENTS AND VISITORS We performed restaurant/dining and retail demand analyses to test the near -term and build -out supportable square footage for Downtown Beaumont. Our sales projections are based on many years of experience conducting demand analyses for on -street shopping districts; thriving master - planned communities; neighborhood and specialty centers; restaurant company sites; and visitor - oriented dining/shopping destinations. Our demand models are based on shopping center industry methodologies for proven, successful centers, and on -street shopping districts.
We project that the dominant demand in the early years will be generated by Beaumont's upscale family households. Over the years, as a critical mass of Downtown operators are open and thriving, we expect additional sales support to be derived from the Beaumont's sphere of influence neighborhoods, as well as travelers along the Freeway 10.
Demand models were prepared for 2023, 2028 (five -years), 2033 (ten years) and for build -out per the City's general plan. We estimate 17,610 occupied households in 2023, based on the 2022 updated, U.S. Census demographics and recently reported housing permits. Starting with the 2022 U.S. Census Beamont population figure of 56,349 (see Exhibit 8, City of Beaumont Updated Demographics), and dividing this figure by the average household size of 3.3 persons to arrive at 17,075 households for July 2022, we then added the average number of five-year single family detached permits, or 535 units, to this figure. (See table summarizing five-year average single family detached permits for years 2018-2022, below and Exhibit 6 in the Appendix.) This 2023 household figure of 17,610 is believed to be a reasonable estimate, especially since recent single family detached permit figures have been 404 unis in 2021 and 790 units in 2022. It is a common occurrence that the U.S. Census under -reports the number of occupied households in new, developing residential areas, like Beaumont, that are experiencing exceptionally high annual growth rates.

During our in -field Beaumont work evaluating builder's model homes in newly -constructed communities, we discussed the status of home sales rates with representatives —at a time of increasing mortgage interest rates (5.0% to 7.0%+). At that time, the home sales representatives stated that the home sales rates had not significantly suffered in this higher interest rate environment due to the perceived quality and affordability of homes offered. Over a 30 -year period, 5% to 7% mortgage interest rates represent workable interest rates in comparison to historical highs above 10% to 15%.
Our estimate of future -year, occupied households in Beaumont show that the City reaches about 20,110 occupied households in five years (2028) and 22,610 occupied households in ten years (2033), using conservative average annual increases of 500 homes per year. The City of Beaumont's General plan projects a total of 31,021 households upon total build -out, based on projected densities for lands available for development (Table 3.2b, page 46 of City General Plan). Per the General Plan, the immediate "sphere of influence" neighborhoods will add another 9,828 households, at build -out, for a total of 40,849 households (31,021 households plus 9,828 households, Table 3.2c, page 47 of City General Plan).
Our Downtown retail and dining demand models use realistically achievable, optimum capture rates of Beaumont resident spending, based on our experience with similarly -located Downtown cores (15% to 20% for food service/dining, and 5.0% to 6.5% for retail). Although many Beaumont residents live 7 to 10 minutes' drive away from the core Downtown area, the sheer lack of high -quality dining supply near residents' homes and along the Freeway 10 corridor are positive characteristics for drawing strong, sustained support to Downtown Beaumont. As noted above, many residents are driving 15 to 45 minutes from their homes to dining alternatives in Uptown Yucaipa, Downtown Redlands, or the Palm Springs/Palm Desert area.

The supportable square -foot figures for Downtown Beaumont are contained on the first line, and represent just the demand for Downtown core offerings (not City-wide demand). (See also Exhibit 14 Appendix.) For example, over the next five years (in 2028), total Downtown dining demand is 35,882 square feet. Because planning horizons for new operations often require two to five years, it is useful to initially evaluate the five-year demand. Today there are 13,790 square feet of high -quality dining offerings already thriving in Downtown with excellent Yelp ratings (see below).

Therefore, the net new demand in five years for dining is 35,882 square feet minus 13,790 square feet, or 22,092 square feet of new space, as shown on the table above (the last line for the year 2028). The net new five-year (2028) demand is equivalent to about 5 to 6 new restaurants averaging about 3,700 to 4,400 each. Should the addition of 6 new restaurants occur over the
L. S. Congleton & Associates
next five years, the total number of Downtown dining offerings would double to 12 different operations. Although dining demand clearly exists for new Downtown restaurants over a short, five-year time horizon, the availability of ready -to -go, appropriate City -owned sites, buildings (for renovation) or other private sector parcels/buildings will be the critical factor in determining the timing.
The demand trends are positive for Downtown over a ten-year time frame. As shown on the above table, the net new demand generates 26,553 square feet of food service space (6 to 7 new restaurants averaging about 3,800 to 4,425 square feet). This figure is cumulative, meaning that if six new restaurants are added within five years, only one new restaurant is supportable in the next five years. Therefore, by the end of ten years, 6 to 7 new restaurants are theoretically supportable in Downtown, in addition to the 6 existing restaurants in 13,790 square feet that already exist, for a total 12 to 13 Downtown restaurants. It is believed the Civic Center Site and the Grace Building would satisfy (or perhaps slightly exceed) the Downtown demand over a ten- year period.
In five to ten years, depending upon construction timing, Downtown Beaumont may theoretically support at least a dozen dining outlets —re-creating a new image of itself as a worthy destination for residents —and possibly starting to draw some visitors traveling along Freeway 10 as well.
When the City reaches its build -out figure of 31,021 households, along with a sphere of influence that includes 9,828 additional households, we estimate that total dining demand in Downtown may reach 76,112 square feet, inclusive of additional 10% support from Freeway 10 travelers and other regional (non -Beaumont) customers. At an average size of 3,460 square feet, this demand translates into about 22 food service outlets, representing a strong pedestrian - oriented variety of drinking, dining, and take -away food service outlets.
Unlike restaurants, that require newly -constructed, high -ceiling new buildings for contemporary operators in the Downtown core, Beaumont already has a high quantity of small shop retail space in Downtown that can be upgraded and/or renovated. Many small shops have been in the Downtown for many years, but have suffered from a lack of pedestrian shopping and from a lack of high -quality dining offerings to draw customers to the area. As the area becomes more visited, and as the dining destinations become more popular, existing space retailers should experience increased customer traffic and sales. Some new stores may also be added, as leases expire, and the area matures.
As shown on the table below (and on Exhibits 1 through 1E), there is a total of 62,606 square footage of small shop space in Downtown Beamont—a large figure that may be restored, revitalized, and/or renovated for existing and new stores.

1/Although dining can support an additional 10% at build -out, retail square footage is conservatively not expected to be increased. The rationale for limiting the expansion of small shop retail space is that regional diners (from Freeway 10 & outside Beaumont and its sphere of influence) have limited time after dining in Downtown Beaumont. 2/Downtown Retail Supply Excluding Free -Standing Businesses (See Exhibit 1).
As shown above, there is no net new retail space demand for newly constructed retail space for over ten years, nor is there any net new supportable space at City build -out. The rationale for this is that there is currently 62,606 square feet of small shop retail space that already exists in
L. S. Congleton & Associates
Downtown. Downtown retail demand is projected to be about 44,493 square feet in ten years, and 50,999 square feet at build -out —below the amount of space that already exists of 62,606 square feet. Pedestrian visitation should be boosted by the addition of restaurants, thereby benefiting customer awareness of Downtown retail spaces, spurring new investment, store revitalization, and upgrading of operations in future years.
The above conclusion does not preclude the ability to add a few newly -constructed retail spaces that are unique, contemporary, and compatible with a newly -created dining district —keeping in mind that the City's first -priority should be restoring the sales health and vitality of existing retail spaces, not the addition of newly -constructed space that is not supported by demand factors.
VII. STAKEHOLDER INTERVIEWS REVEALED ENGAGED, INTERESTED
PARTIES WITH A RECEPTIVENESS TO TRAFFIC -SLOWING
IMPROVEMENTS AND BUILDING SMALL LOT SINGLE-FAMILY-
DETATCHED HOUSING IN DOWNTOWN AREA
As part of our work, we conducted 14 City of Beaumont Stakeholder Interviews of Downtown businesses; property owners; and brokers, based on a list provided by City Staff The interviewees were well -engaged, highly interested participants in the process. Selected findings include:
1. Slow Traffic Down: All interviewees recognized the need to slow traffic down on 6th Street and Beaumont Avenue in order to effectively revitalize Downtown Beaumont.
2. Round-Abouts: Interviewees responded favorably to the suggestion of using round-abouts to slow traffic, and embraced the idea of the City installing them. No interviewee spoke negatively about the idea.
3. Physical Improvement Suggestions:
a. More cross -walks to improve the safety of streets for pedestrians; b. Archway signage announcing Downtown like the one in Uptown Yucaipa; c. Creation of "trail pathways" or walking routes that are lighted for pedestrians; d. Way -finding signage indicating parking areas;
e. Making alleys more attractive and useful for outdoor dining; f. Add more lighting to Downtown walkways, alleys and crosswalks to improve evening perception of safety; and
g. Addition of more signs announcing the speed limit along 6th Street.
L. S. Congleton & Associates
4. "Economic Tool" Suggestions:
a. Increasing the City's "business friendly" way of working with new businesses, reducing the "paper bureaucracy" that businesses face;
b. Revise Downtown zoning to allow small (tiny) workforce/studio apai tiiients to be built for young, Beaumont singles on top of commercial/restaurant buildings; c. Allow houses to be converted to commercial uses;
d. Revise Downtown zoning to allow the construction of small single family detached homes (for rent or own) around the 5th Street area; e. Establish improved communication between the City Economic Development Department and the Fire Marshall; and
f. Create a 5 -year to 10 -year implementation plan that is firm and "fail-safe" that would continue to be effective even if future City Councils change.
5. Downtown Development Use Suggestions:
a. Add/expand high -quality dining, targeting independent successful restaurants; b. Encourage, Downtown existing restaurants (in future years) that wish to expand their buildings and/or outdoor dining to do so;
c. Target a food user for the former "Beaumont Dry Cleaners" building in the Grace Avenue Gateway area, such as a coffee/bakery outlet;
d. Bring back the Ramona's food truck for nearby workers, such as those working at PSI;
e. Target a sandwich outlet/quick food cafe near PSI for workers; f. Add a craft brewery or beer tasting room, similar to the one in Yucaipa; g. Encourage restaurants to enhance and add outdoor dining areas; h. Add a wine bar with food; a bratwurst quick food outlet with outdoor dining; a gastro pub; and a baked potato casual dining outlet;
i. Target an independent burger restaurant like Slaters 50-50 in Orange County; J•
Build small lot single family detached rentals, particular in the Downtown area near 5th Street; and
k. Build small workforce/studio apartments for young people on second floor as part of commercial/restaurant mixed -use projects with ground floor commercial or restaurant.

6. Other Downtown Suggestions:
a. Consider buying small vacant parcels to consolidate for new development; and b. Consider national retailers for sites as interim uses (10 to 20 years) until sites with auto/tire uses are viable to be converted to dining and retail operations.
VIII. RECOMMENDED ACTION PLAN

1. Expedite Re -Use and Renovation of City -Owned Grace Building (500 Grace Avenue) for Restaurant with Planned Opening within 3 to 5 Years. This charming, historic Spanish - style, city -owned building would make an excellent destination -oriented restaurant of 4,300 to 5,000 square feet (plus outdoor patio space), to be owned and operated by a proven independent entrepreneur (non -chain restaurant). Downtown currently lacks new, innovative, creative full -service, sit-down restaurants/bars, with the average size today in Downtown of only 2,298 square feet for top -rated (Yelp) cafes/restaurants.
L. S. Congleton & Associates
Securing a committed operator quickly prior to any City expenditures would initiate an efficient process. The new operator would retain an architect to design the renovations; and any financial assistance provided by the City could be in the form of a contribution to the approved renovation plans. We recommend that City Management offer a low/minor lease rate in the early years of operation, based upon a sizable, negotiated, financial commitment by the restaurant operator for fit-out/renovation expenditures.
The building lease term should be long enough not to restrict the ability of the restaurant owner to secure fit -out financing (e.g., 20 to 30 years) from a traditional lender and/or investors. The lease should require monthly or quarterly submittals of total revenue receipts, broken out by food versus alcohol sales, in order to track the financial success of the restaurant. The lease should also give the City an option (but not obligation) to "take back" the lease, including all improvements, should the operator's revenues drop below minimally -acceptable levels over an extended period, such as 6 months to a year (e.g., below $300 per square foot). This important clause allows City Management to stay informed about the restaurant's revenue streams, and to be prepared should the new operator not succeed as planned.
Prior to the City's approval of any lease, the new restaurant operator should submit its business plan that will include a minimum of five-year sales projections, including allocations of food versus alcohol sales.
2. Evaluate Re -Use of City -Owned Fleet Maintenance Site At 550 N. California for Near - Term Dining/Bar or Brewery/Tasting Facility. Re -use of this site is likely to require some demolition/clearing of existing uses, and possible construction of a new structure compatible with "Grace Avenue Gateway" nearby buildings. The City may wish to use a targeted approach to attract a proven, independent operator from Yucaipa or Redlands, the closest competitive locations. A 3,500 to 4,500+ square foot use may be accommodated, depending upon off -site parking allocations and any firm off -site parking commitments. For example, should it be determined that additional, off -site (peak period) parking may be accommodated nearby on 5th Street on a vacant parcel, the amount of buildable area on 550 N. California may be maximized. City financial assistance may be needed to clear the site and assist with renovation/new building costs.
3. Target and Solicit A Potential Food -Oriented Use for Former Beaumont Cleaners Building (6th Street and Grace Avenue). This small, charming "retro-style" brick -tiled building has excellent potential for 6th Street visibility for an independent, proven food operator in about 2,000 square feet. If possible, an outdoor dining space of 500 to 1,000 square feet should be part of the long-term plan for the building. Short-term parking may be accommodated adjacent to building, but shared parking alternatives
L. S. Congleton & Associates
should be explored with the re -use of the Grace Building, such as use of City -owned vacant land on 5th Street (for about 30 parking spaces).
4. Assess Legal, Zoning, Regulation and Financial Feasibility of Partial Closure and Attractive Enhancement of City -Owned Alley Bordered by Ramona's Restaurant, 5th Street, Ramona's Parking Area, 6th Street and PSI Building. Working with the private owners near the alley space, assess the process steps and pragmatic efforts required to enhance the alley with attractive improvements (e.g., re -pavement, pedestrian lighting, signage (including direction signage to parking areas). Determine the useability of the space for expansion of Ramona's outdoor dining patio space, as well as possible use as an outdoor -indoor bar space. Consider City financial assistance for alley improvements and outdoor improvements, including private sector assistance based upon submittal of appropriate historical revenues/sales and future business and financing plans based on the alley improvements.
5. Design, Approve, Fund and Initiate Physical Work for Necessary Street Improvements for Grace Avenue Gateway District. Long-term street improvements are optimally phased over time. The Grace Avenue Gateway District is the optimum location for initiating street improvements, including: (a) one round -about; (b) added street lighting; (c) alley enhancements for outdoor dining; (d) improved parking areas owned by the City; (e) way -finding signage and Downtown entry and/or Grace Avenue Gateway signage. (See conceptual drawing of future recommended streetscape improvements prepared by Jonathan Linkus, Urban Planner, GHD.)

B. CIVIC CENTER SITE
6. Contract with Designer/Architect for Two to Three Preliminary Layouts and Elevation Sketches for Civic -Center Site. In order to secure a successful retail developer for any future Civic Center dining complex site, the optimum strategy is to have an experienced designer/retail architect prepare two to three preliminary layouts and elevation sketches for the estimated 123,141 square feet of land area. The sketches should conservatively assume that the site is self -parked, as well as possibly using shared parking arrangements during peak dining periods (evenings/weekends).

A retail architect's schematic layouts and elevation sketches will be useful tools for achieving all required City Council reviews and approvals. This step provides the City Management team with realistic design drawings for soliciting proven retail developers for the project, and for negotiating a long-term ground lease with the prospective developer.
7. Initiate Search for Proven, Successful Retail Developer with Public -Private Partnership Experience. Once a list of successful, public -private retail developers is compiled, consider transmission of an RFQ soliciting interest by the private sector. Initiate the review and interview process for a potential redevelopment of the site. Top consideration should be given to retail developers with experience in similarly -sized cities to Beaumont; Southern California building and leasing experience; a long-term commitment to retail property management efforts; a track record securing and leasing
L. S. Congleton & Associates
to successful, independent dining entrepreneurs; and the ability to build the Civic Center project in a phased approach (e.g., two separate phases).
8. Assess the Need for Infrastructure and Street Improvement, City Financial Assistance for Civic Center Project. Assess the need for potential financial assistance for improvements for parking spaces; street enhancements along Orange Avenue; construction of a round -about at or near Beaumont Avenue (or other traffic -slowing measures); city signage and way -finding; street lighting; and other, off -site infrastructure costs. Retain a cost engineer to create a budget for the off -site costs and expenditures required to complete the Civic Center development. Assess how the City may be able to financially assist the implementation of the Civic Center project by funding the necessary off -site and public amenity costs.
9. Negotiate A Deal for The Civic Center Site with a Realistic, Up -Front, Pre -Leasing Period, Approved Design Drawings and Phasing Plan. Within the next four to five years, target completion of a Civic Center Development Agreement and private sector firm financial commitment for a two -phased approach to building out the Civic Center project. An optimistic program would include completion of the first phase of development within two to three years of executing the final Development Agreement.
II. "ECONOMIC TOOLS" ACTION PLAN
10. Modify Administrative Procedures In -House, As Necessary, for The City to Be Considered More "Business Friendly". Review current administrative procedures and permitting processes, and prepare draft revisions. Meet with all affected City departments to reach consensus on revised procedures and processes. Obtain City Council approvals, if needed. From an entrepreneur's business perspective, a "business friendly city" is an authentic, cost -saving, economic tool. It may be one of the most powerful "economic tools" a California city can offer: a city that stands out as one that enthusiastically and pragmatically has a positive business environment is likely to draw more new independent entrepreneurs than other cities known for laborious, time - intensive approval processes.
11. Designate An In -House, "One -Stop" Liaison or "Downtown Business Concierge" to Assist New Businesses That Want to Open or Develop in Downtown. Instead of having a Downtown business applicant go through the permitting/procedural administrative process with individual City departments, designate one in-house City staff person to coordinate all the efforts on behalf of the applicant. Ideally, an applicant would attend one "first -step" meeting, spearheaded by the City Liaison, with the City Planning Department and other related departments, to discuss all the various variance requirements; permitting requirements; and other department reviews required. All
L. S. Congleton & Associates
City requirements should be explained in detail, up -front in one meeting, in contrast to a series of separate meetings at different times.
Business owners and developers need to know all the approval/permitting information up -front —not incrementally, or step-by-step. Businesses sustain added costs with incremental meetings, especially when a business finds out about "surprises" along the way, costing the business unplanned time, money and added costs "down the road." Transparency and clear communications, with a single -designated, enthusiastic City Liaison or "Downtown Business Concierge," would significantly improve an applicant's impression of Beaumont as "Business Friendly."
12. Revise and Simplify Downtown Zoning Allowing a Broad Range of Residential and Mixed -Use Densities. A large swath of the Downtown area is occupied by old automotive outlets, auto repair/tire outlet uses and light industrial/warehouse uses, intermixed with single family detached homes, small detached housing units, attached single -level rental units, mobile homes, and other old-style residential properties. This Downtown area is contained north of Freeway 10, along 5th Street, and south or below 6th Street (but not directly on 6th Street), east of Beaumont Avenue and west of Pennsylvania Street. Property owners interviewed in or near this area report strong occupancy of the residential units, many of which are "affordably" priced, small square footage units.
No new development has occurred in this area in recent years. The area south of 6th Street is unsuitable for retail; office; restaurants or other prime commercial uses that generally are desirable in Downtown areas. No market demand exists for these commercial uses in this area. Modern industrial/warehouse buildings are also unsuitable in this area due to the lack of large-scale parcels fronting Freeway 10, and strong competition from nearby, master -planned industrial parks that are more suitable for big users.
The only near -term development product for this area is residential —irrespective of the mixed, industrial/auto use character of the area. In order to promote and encourage residential development, the current zoning needs to be simplified and expanded to allow a broad range of residential densities. For example, a recommended zoning would allow residential densities ranging from 8 units to the acre to 25 or 30 units to the acre —or maximize the allowable density to as high as 50 units to the acre. The point is to allow residential development zoning flexibility, tied to density —but not product type.
Thriving Downtowns across the nation often have a mix of single -family -detached houses; ownership and rental townhomes; and rental apartments within walking distance of the core shopping district. To date, Beaumont's new housing growth has
L. S. Congleton & Associates
been focused on master -planned communities, most of which are about a 5 -to -10 - minute drive outside the Downtown area. In order to boost interest in new commercial, restaurant and retail businesses along Beaumont Avenue and 6th Street, as well as the Grace Avenue Gateway area, residential development of all kinds should be encouraged in the Downtown area.
13. Encourage Growth of Downtown Housing South of 6th Street and In -Fill Development West and East of Beaumont Avenue (Not On Beaumont Avenue). By simplifying the Downtown area zoning to include a range of densities, such as 8 units to the acre to 25+ units to the acre, property owners will have the flexibility to satisfy near -term and long- term demand market forces. Currently, housing demand is focused on detached products. At 8 to 10 units to the acre, creative, small lot, detached housing may be encouraged in the near -term. As acceptance of this higher density, detached product is accepted, both detached and attached, two and three -level "townhomes" may also be market -accepted, built at densities of 12 to 25 units per acre.
We understand that the current area south of 6th Street, in the downtown mixed use and sixth street mixed -use zones, which contain a mixture of automotive and repair uses, does not allow the development of any single -family -detached units —even at higher densities (such as 8 to 10 units/acre). Based on our property owner interviews, if the zoning were revised to allow higher density detached products, as well as attached, higher density residential, property owners would have the incentive to build quickly.
Without revising the zoning, we predict that many property owners will not develop anything for many years to come due to the lack of demand for high density housing today.
Revising residential zoning should also allow new housing without requiring the incorporation of retail/restaurant or other commercial ground uses. As stated above, there is insufficient demand for retail south of 6th Street to the Freeway 10. Moreover, the retail/restaurant demand should be focused within a walkable, concentrated, pedestrian area of a few blocks near and around the 6th Street and Beaumont Avenue area, including the Grace Building Gateway area; the Civic Center; and Beaumont Avenue area from 6th to about 8th Street.
14. Selectively Purchase Sites for Redevelopment. The City should create a plan for possible selective purchasing of key sites for redevelopment. The optimum parcels should be those sites with existing building uses, or vacant parcels with viable, feasible, pre -development programs. Critical key financial assistance is best provided in cases where business users have already been identified for the site, with firm commitments.
The City may provide a pivotal role in situations where there may be purchase price "gaps," or in cases where a proven developer or restaurant owner cannot close a land
L. S. Congleton & Associates
purchase deal without some land price, off -site improvement, or interior fit -out financial assistance, in the form of a grant or loan. In some cases, the City can be an interim owner in cases where acquisition timing may require some short-term assistance.
IX. FINAL COMMENTS
The City of Beaumont has a rare opportunity to use its City -owned parcels to catalyze the revitalization of Downtown. We believe the City staff has the prerequisite vison to encourage, entice, and bring together the required businesses and development partners to effectuate attractive "Showcase" dining projects over the next five- to ten -years.
We have enjoyed conducting this study and preparing this report. Please give us a call if you have any questions.
Very truly yours,

Approximately 10% additional square footage of dining space is estimated to be supported from travelers along Freeway 10, as well as other regional residents living outside of Beaumont and its sphere of influence. This additional support is likely to happen after a critical mass of restaurants (12+ restaurants) has occurred. For conservative purposes, we have estimated that this additional support happens sometime after 10 years. 2/ Current average size of restaurants in Downtown Beaumont (Yelp 4+ Rating) is shown (See Exhibit 38). We estimate that future restaurant average size will be higher due to the void in the market of larger sized, higher quality restaurants.

1/ Although dining can support an additional 10% at build -out, retail square footage is conservatively not expected to be increased. The rationale for limiting the expansion of small shop retail space is that regional diners (from Freeway 10 & outside Beaumont and its sphere of influence) have limited time after dining in Downtown Beaumont.

Strengths Weaknesses
• Affluent households moving into high quality new detached homes • Future family -oriented household growth expected to continue • Higher interest rates not likely to severely dampen home demand • Strong, growing family market drives demand for value priced, casual dining destinations
• Closest competitors are 15-30 min. away (e.g. Redlands, Yucaipa) • Long-term dining "void" demand to serve growing resident market • Easy accessibility from Freeway 10
SWOT
Opportunities Threats
• Several dining outlets interested in expanding long-term • City -owned Grace Bldg. is prime site for major restaurant • A new craft brewery tasting outlet would boost Downtown • Other renovation dining possibilities near Grace Building • Reuse of City -owned Civic Center Site for creative dining complex of 6-7 outlets could be a pivotal Downtown transformation • 8th & Beaumont St. site suitable for tree -shaded dining • Excellent build -out dining demand: 22 restaurants/cafes • Downtown should focus on independent entrepreneurs to distinguish from freeway -oriented competition

REVIEW MEMO
A key strategy for facilitating
Downtown Revitalization is
ensuring the Programmatic
Environmental Report connected
to the General Plan and its
Downtown Area Plan also reflects
proposals in the more detailed
Revitalization Plan. The goal will
be a strategic Downtown action
plan that can tier off existing
CEQA documentation.
OVERVIEW OF RECOMMENDATIONS
The Downtown Beaumont Revitalization Plan (DBRP)
is essentially an implementation plan that provides
additional detail regarding downtown area development
contemplated by the City's 2020 General Plan.
However, the DBRP would be adopted by the City as a
discretionary action and would require some form of
CEQA documentation. We recommend this be in the
form of a CEQA Addendum to the 2020 General Plan EIR,
consistent with Section 15164 of the CEQA Guidelines.

Downtown Beaumont Revitalization Plan — General Plan PEIR Review Dear Ms. Kendrick and Ms. Taylor:
GHD is pleased to share this Existing Site Conditions Memo with the City of Beaumont (City) to summarize the adequacy and sufficiency of the existing 2020 General Plan (General Plan) and Program -level Environmental Impact Report (PEIR) to address potential environmental impacts associated with implementation of the Downtown Beaumont Revitalization Plan (DBRP). Our review includes evaluating potential future development in downtown Beaumont and guidance on how to appropriately review future projects under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) process.
Overview of Development Under the 2020 General Plan and PEIR The 2020 General Plan and PEIR provides a detailed overview of goals, policies, and implementation measures for the City of Beaumont to support future growth. The overarching elements of the PEIR and General Plan consist of the following:
• Land Use + Community Design Element
• Mobility Element
• Economic Development and Fiscal Element
• Health + Environmental Element
• Community Facilities + Infrastructure Element
• Conservation + Open Space Element
• Safety Element
• Noise Element
To facilitate future development in the City, several of the Elements referenced above include land use designations, preservation of existing and development of new neighborhoods with varied housing opportunities, as well as new commercial and mixed -use areas. Specifically, the Land Use Element of the General Plan focuses on goals and policies for neighborhoods and commercial areas. The General Plan aims to improve the City's infrastructure for the benefit of the community while maintaining diverse and extensive open space networks to maintain natural views as well as promote recreation.
Development goals outlined by the City also include emphasis on future development within the City boundaries, specifically the downtown area. The 2020 General Plan includes a Downtown Area Plan (DAP) intended to articulate a vision for downtown, as the City lacks a defined and recognizable downtown area and has great potential for downtown development. The DAP provides development regulations and design 4 The Power of Commitment

guidance for the expansion and growth of Downtown Beaumont's three subareas: Sixth Street Corridor, Sixth Street Corridor Extended, and Beaumont Avenue (Figure 1). `.

Furthermore, City of Beaumont encourages future development to protect views of natural areas in and to the south and west of the City, as well as to incorporate public plazas with seating, public gathering places, and drinking fountains, especially in prominent locations and areas of pedestrian activity. One of the top goals of the 2020 General Plan is to create a vibrant downtown to reduce vacancies and promote mixed use development with ample housing and retail opportunities to invite economic growth. This will be achieved by a human -scale design that includes improved pedestrian experiences (e.g., wide sidewalks), multi -modal streets, and walkable communities.
The DAP lays the groundwork for what the City envisions for the Downtown Core, which is intended to be the "cultural, civic, entertainment, and social heart of the community," and will consist of mixed -use development and prioritize capital spending. The Downtown Core district extends from Egan Avenue on the west to Palm Avenue on the east and is bordered by 8th Street on the north and Interstate 10 (1-10) on the south. The Downtown Core's close proximity to the 1-10 corridor will help draw visitors to the City's new downtown. Furthermore, the DAP identifies quantitative thresholds for development and guidance for land use designations, zoning districts, and residential intensity/density for the DAP districts (Table 1). The DAP promotes densification of downtown and includes guidance on the number of dwelling units per acre (du/ac), which range from 4 du/ac to 22 du/ac, floor area ratios for development square footage, and standards on building heights for a given downtown land use designation. 12592877 1 Downtown Beaumont Revitalization Plan — Existing Conditions Summary Memo 2

12592877 1 Downtown Beaumont Revitalization Plan — Existing Conditions Summary Memo 3
Additionally, the 2020 General Plan explains that new development shall effectively protect sensitive habitats and natural communities, minimize new impervious surface development, reduce light pollution, and emphasize native landscaping. It is also recommended that new development in the City incorporate recycled water infrastructure and renewable energy where feasible. The City of Beaumont's plan for future expansion and revitalization of the downtown area are intended to benefit the local community, elevate the quality of life for residents, and promote economic growth in the region.
New Development Concepts of the DBRP
The proposed development concepts in the DBRP comprise design capacity studies for select areas of the City, which offer the highest redevelopment opportunity for landowners and the downtown community.
These concepts are centered around incremental and investable City improvements to promote economically viable development. The DBRP development scenarios include mixed use, residential, and commercial development, as well as proposed street and parking configurations. Proposed improvements also consist of zoning recommendations, conceptual streetscapes, site plans for redevelopment, architectural guidelines, transportation solutions, increased pedestrian spaces, bicycle -friendly spaces, and upgraded public infrastructure/civic center. Redevelopment in downtown Beaumont is proposed for select opportunity sites and development of select neighborhoods is based on highest and best use of land (Figure 2).

This development scenario illustrates a mix -use approach including residential dwelling units, restaurant space, and parking and focuses on densifying the area. Densifying the area will promote connectivity and incorporate multiple land uses in a concentrated area to benefit the community.
Beaumont downtown streetscape improvements include Beaumont Avenue from Fifth Street to Eleventh Street and Sixth Street from Veile Avenue to Pennsylvania Avenue. Improvements encourage complete streets, safety for all modes, and right -sizing parking needs. These proposed improvements are based on the DAP roadway designs, and any slight differences are a result of analysis informing decisions on safety and parking needs, while aligning with the General Plan and DAP.
The proposed transportation improvements are not expected to conflict with any program, plan, ordinance, or policy, and will be consistent with the General Plan, DAP, and PEIR. Specifically, the General Plan identifies Beaumont Avenue and Sixth Street in the downtown area as part of the Pedestrian and Bicycle Priority Network, and these recommendations will contribute to the network though bump -out intersections for pedestrian safety, widened sidewalk space, and travel speeds suitable for pedestrians. Transportation recommendations of the DBRP align with the DAP's Guiding Principle to create a vibrant downtown though multi -modal street design, and with the Circulation Policies.
Roadway reconfiguration designs of the DBRP were based on the DAP designs, and any slight differences in cross sections continue to largely align with DAP principles and policies and the General Plan's vision to implement complete streets. Beaumont Avenue from Fifth Street to Sixth Street will be reduced from four lanes to two lanes with a landscape median and the addition of a bike lane. Similarly, Beaumont Avenue from Sixth Street to Eighth Street will be reduced from four lanes to two lanes with the addition of parallel parking and bike lanes. While recommendations introduce on -street parking to accommodate the deficit in downtown, the solutions align with the DAP:

Ensure an adequate supply of parking in the Downtown Core district without compromising the vision for a walkable downtown.
Recommended parking management strategies of the DBRP align with those listed in the DAP, including park once and connect to pedestrian and bicycle facilities, permitted parking for employees, shared parking of 6th Street Civic Center with Water District, and Sixth Street fee -in -lieu parking fees.
Potential Environmental Impacts of the DBRP
Implementation of the DRBP will provide community -wide benefits to residents and visitors of the City. As such, the City's proposed new development goals may result in a change to the existing community 12592877 1 Downtown Beaumont Revitalization Plan — Existing Conditions Summary Memo 5
dynamic as well as impacts to the environment. Outlined below are a list of environmental disciplines that may be affected by the DRBP:
• Aesthetics: Redevelopment would result in changes to the community look and feel of the City's downtown area. Development goals include densification of downtown and introduction of mixed - use development, which would result in building up and out from the current downtown footprint. • Air Quality/ Greenhouse Gas Emissions: The DRBP includes expanding parking opportunities in the downtown, which could result in increased vehicle traffic and emissions. • Geology/Soils and Hydrology/Water Quality: Development would result in more ground disturbing activities. Geotechnical or hydrologic studies may be needed depending on the scope and size of a given downtown revitalization project.
• Noise: Increased numbers of restaurants, housing units, vehicles, and people in the downtown would result in greater noise levels. Daytime and nighttime noise ordinances may need to be adjusted to accommodate the increased activity. Noise could also have impacts on nearby wildlife or sensitive receptors.
• Population and Housing: Mixed -use zoning and emphasis on expanding downtown could result in an increased need for housing.
• Recreation: Increased development and visitors downtown could generate a need for recreational facilities and open space.
• Transportation: Increased demand for parking downtown to accommodate more housing, retail, and restaurants would present new challenges for traffic and congestion. There may be a need to adjust street and parking configurations or to introduce more roundabouts to offset potential transportation impacts. Additional parking management recommendations include on -street parking and park one options.
• Utilities and Service Systems: As downtown expands and densifies, there would be an increased need for utility service, maintenance, and capacity to serve the population.
With regards to transportation, Vehicle Miles Travelled (VMT) is anticipated to be reduced through strategic design decisions. The following items align with the OPR SB 743 Technical Advisory and the Caltrans Transportation Analysis under CEQA (TAC) guidance documents and these recommendations are not expected to result in an increase in VMT:
• A reduction in number of through lanes on Beaumont Avenue and Sixth Street. • Installation of two roundabouts along 6th Street.
• Addition of new bike and pedestrian facilities on Beaumont Avenue and Sixth Street. • Adoption of on -street parking along Beaumont Avenue. • Installation of traffic calming devices, including road closures on Sixth Street. • Roadway shoulder enhancements to provide "breakdown space," dedicated space for use only by transit vehicles, to provide bicycle access, or to otherwise improve safety, but which will not be used as automobile vehicle travel lanes; in this project, curb extensions for pedestrian safety. • Safety projects designed to improve bicycle and pedestrian facilities, including high visibility crosswalks, curb extensions, curb ramps, pedestrian refuge island, bike conflict zone markings.
Furthermore, transportation design improvements are anticipated to increase safety along the downtown streets, including widened sidewalks, buffered bicycle lanes, curb extensions, bike conflict zone markings, addition of two roundabouts along Sixth Street, urban cooling through tree -shaded streets, and traffic calming devices. The project designs will comply with all industry standards to ensure safety at intersections for all modes and will not impede emergency access.
CEQA Recommendations
The CEQA checklist, also known as the initial study checklist or CEQA Guidelines Appendix G, is shown below. This checklist is a planning tool that is intended to aid public agencies in determining the level of 12592877 1 Downtown Beaumont Revitalization Plan — Existing Conditions Summary Memo 6

Upon review of the CEQA checklist, there are several areas where future development has the potential to result in impacts to the community and environment. However, development will take place in areas of downtown that are previously disturbed and potential environmental impacts associated with the DRBP are sufficiently covered by the PEIR. The PEIR adequately discusses new and proposed development and the PEIR DAP aligns with the goals and objectives of the DRBP. As such, future development in the City's downtown would likely be able to tier off the PEIR (see definition in CEQA Guidelines Section 15385).
Depending upon the scope and scale, future proposed development could either:
• Rely entirely upon the analysis in the General Plan EIR as sufficient; • Prepare a Categorical Exemption (where applicable under CEQA Section 15300); or • Prepare a Mitigated Negative Declaration (MND; for projects with potentially significant environmental impacts that can be mitigated).
Categorical exemptions are identified by the State Resources Agency for groups or classes of projects as defined in the CEQA Guidelines (Sections 15300-15333) that have been determined not to have a significant effect on the environment and are therefore exempt from the provisions of CEQA. Examples of CEQA exemptions that may apply to the new development in the City may include Class 2 projects (Section 15302: Replacement or Reconstruction), Class 3 projects (Section 15303: New Construction or Conversion of Small Structures), and/or Class 32 projects (Section 15332: In -Fill Development Projects). For example, the Class 32 exemption may apply to projects for infill housing of less than 5 acres within City limits surrounded by urban land uses.
The DBRP is essentially an implementation plan that provides additional detail regarding downtown area development contemplated by the City's 2020 General Plan. However, the DBRP would be adopted by the City as a discretionary action and would require some form of CEQA documentation. We recommend this be in the form of a CEQA Addendum to the 2020 General Plan EIR, consistent with Section 15164 of the CEQA Guidelines.
In summary, the proposed development scenarios of the DBRP, including transportation recommendations, align well with the goals and objectives of the General Plan, DAP, and PEIR. These documents will aid in the CEQA review process and will help guide future development in the City, subject to additional review as described above.

ARCHITECTURE
GUIDELINES
DC -1.1 ARCHITECTURAL
GUIDELINES PURPOSE
These Guidelines aim to enrich
the development of Downtown
Beaumont by focusing on the
key components of architectural
design that contribute to a
visually engaging, legible, and
more consistent public realm that
expresses the history of the City's
oldest neighborhoods.
Responding to context, whether it be the streets and
paseos, buildings, or activities is key to achieving good design outcomes. Each of these sections is designed to
assist the City in reviewing architectural proposals from a functional and historic prespective, not merely from a stylstic or aesthetic perspective, as they pertain to each of several styles relevant to Beaumont's story.
By providing a series of intent statements, objective
outcomes, and style guide for architectural design within Beaumont's Downtown area, these guidelines can be
applied flexibly and adaptively to help City staff guide collaboratively with developers based on an intented
quality of place.
These guidelines will support safe and comfortable
environments for all users, help establish a sense of
place and quality, and will provide detailed information about architectural elements, building massing, material choices, and more.
HOW TO READ THESE GUIDELINES
The Guidelines use illustrations and photos to visually communicate the desired design results. The intent of the graphic format of this document is to make the information clear and accessible to a diverse audience, including the community, designers, planners, and developers.
Diagrams are provided for illustrative purposes, the
architecture design guidelines aim to accommodate a
variety of styles that are compatible with the existing local architectural fabric of Beaumont.
Development projects are generally required to comply with objective outcomes; however, applicants may choose to
forgo one or more objective outcomes and instead meet the spirit of the relevant intent statements.
The Guidelines are broken up into sections:
1. 1. Approach, Applicability & Context provides an
overarching mission and implementation approach to
these Guidelines, and unpacks Downtown's historical
development as context for today's Guidelines.
2. 2. Downtown Styles introduces and details the four
recommended styles for this document that are intrinsic to past and future development for the downtown area.
3. Massing & Form Articulation lends an understanding
of main massing and roofline
4. Corners at Streetfront addresses special guidelines for active facade corners on 6th St. and Beaumont Ave.
5. Awnings & Shades describes important methods of
outdoor space shading with canopies and trellises

DC -1 .2 ARCHITECTURAL
APPROACH & APPLICABILITY
This guide looks at the architectural
and historic context of Downtown
Beaumont, and outlines how we
can use values, principles and
approaches - based on good
design - to addresses matters of
climate, comfort, streetscape, and
human interaction which are specific
to the City. Taken together, these
elements make up the constituent
parts a highly desireable Downtown
for business and lifestyle.
DC -1.2.1 DOWNTOWN
GUIDELINE MISSION
Downtown Beaumont is among the earliest areas to develop in the San Gorgonio Pass. Many historic buildings that serve today gathering places, business settings, and places of worship, are also the original anchors of the district at the heart of the community. Promoting the cultural and structural significance of Downtown through Architectural Guidelines that extend from and reflect on this architectural heritage will ensure future residents and visitors enjoy the same longstanding quality of living Beaumont has always offered.
The City of Beaumont has recently updated its zoning and related development standards. Typically, an architectural guideline serves more subjective approval determinations, where standards offer applicants greater certainty for a more expedient process. Therefore, this guideline supplements and supports the Objective Design Standards and addresses issues not covered by it.
The City Planning department should:
1). Work collaboratively to promote the intent of this
guideline, and without unduly upholding the approval process to achieve one solution where alternatives viably deliver that intent. The City should establish a permit process period goals to promote streamlining that encourages downtown
development.
2.) Provide staff or contract with vendors who have
professional experience in architecture and urban design to support applicants and understand their needs in the review process.
3.) Seek a cohesive, healthy, resilient, and creative Downtown urban environment that is walkable, comfortable, and a
regional visitor and resident touchstone historic district.
DC -1.2.2 DOWNTOWN
GUIDELINE APPROACH
This Architectural Guideline is developed according to four broad style categories which can be observed through the historic development of Downtown Beaumont. Each is
described according to its historic background, its place in a regional narrative, and the intent fulfilled by bringing a project in each style to Downtown. This is followed by a description of the value of style elements to environmental and experiential factors for residents and visitors - lending rationale to the application of each architectural mode.
Lastly, the style is unpacked according to key elements, materials, and colors which must be found in the approved development concept.
Above: contemporary applications of traditional architecture. The City should interpret the intent of Guideline recommendations in a manner which may allow contemporary applications of historic styles and architectural details - as shown in the examples above. Overall, authenticity of materials, build quality, and level of detail are most important.

DC -1.3 ARCHITECTURAL
CONTEXT
This Guideline will ensure that
Downtown Beaumont retains a direct
line to a meaningful story of small
town origins while preparing for
the future as a distinctive, historic,
economically and climatically
resilient, high quality Downtown.
Downtown Beaumont is the "old town" for the City of
Beaumont, and among its earliest notable developments and community anchors were the Queen Anne Victorian McCoy
house (1885), the Hotel Edinburgh (1887), the Beaumont rail depot (1888), Beaumont City Hall (1913), Beaumont Library (a Carnegie Library, 1914). Residential and commercial
development of Downtown Beaumont was continuous
from the turn of the 20th century through the 1950s, and expressed a comprehensive range of architectural styles.
Spanish revival and Mission style were already present in key structures, such as City Hall, and the Triangle Gas Station, the City's first, which still stands at Grace Ave. as the shuttered Beaumont Cleaners. Later examples existed as roadside
hotels and in residential tracts, especially as the bungalow court type.
Craftsman architecture was prominent in early 20th century Downtown Beaumont residential work. Several of these are still found north of E. 6th Street today. The C. B. Eyer house was an early example on E 6th Street near City Hall and recently demolished.
National style, a common late 19th and early 20th century mode of pragmatic architecture, was present in the
Beaumont Depot, as well as the later Beaumont Women's
Club, built in 1909. Many homes, large and small, throughout Downtown, reflect this simple approach to architecture.
Art Moderne and similar Mid -Century Modern architecture of early and mid -20th century roadside commercial
development became the defining face of Beaumont to
travelers along former US -99 / US 60/70, or 6th St. today.
Many examples still line this main community corridor
today, including the former Beaumont Theater (currently the Beaumont Antique Mall, 1940).
Outside of Downtown, modern development of the 1980s
through 2020s primarily carries a Spanish or Mission
architecture - at minimum with application of terra-cotta tyle and beige stucco finish. Ideally, through greater control of architecutre, Downtown will stand as a distinctive district in the architectural context of greater Beaumont.
Page523of744

DC -1.4 NATIONAL
FOLK STYLE
A pragmatic and minimally
elaborated American 19th and 20th
century architecture, and bearing
some qualities in common with
Frontier Style; National Folk is a
broad category encompassing
simple residential structures and
some commercial shopfronts.
The National Folk Style, or National Style is a broad catch- all category for several related styles of common American architecture. The grouping of sub -styles under the label "National Style" is commonly divided into pre- and post - railroad eras. The post -railroad era is more common in the Western US, and is found in many Downtown Beaumont
structures. The style was most prevalent from 1850 to
1900 and best describes the design of Beaumont's Summit rail depot, constructed in the 1880s. Today, the style is a standard for pragmatic and efficient architecture with minimal adornment/elaboration while offering a quality suitable for the heart of Beaumont.
Many examples of National Folk Style are recognized by a gable -front pediment, often covering a front stoop or front porch. This can be observed in the Women's Club building in Downtown along E. 6th Street. Other examples are
residential properties, the largest of which still stands at 545 Euclid Ave, which emphasizes Greek revival details. While exhibiting a purer Greek revival style, Beaumont's current City Hall at 550 E. 6th St bears a relationship to the National Style with a front pediment and window proportions.
Frontier architecture describes a subcategory of this style that emphasizes entry porches, column supported gable -covered balconies. This type of structure also emphasizes timber post and beam framing, especially for exterior facade balconies, roof extensions, and smaller shade elements. Knee bracing is a common element in these structures.
Finish materials in the National Style are similar to Craftsman architecture, commonly emphasizing wood/clapboard, but
may include vertical wood siding types, shingles, brick, and even stucco finishes where relief elements take the place of wood trim. Two story structures, especially mixed use and large commercial projects are encouraged to employ dormers, and broken rooflines covering extensive porches to both add - visual interest and offer opportunities for activity and visual connection at the building street frontage.
DC -1.4.1 WHEN BEST TO USE
A NATIONAL FOLK STYLE
The National style is best suited for residential projects and very small retail development. Developers seeking to employ this style of architecture along 6th St or Beaumont Ave should employ gable -covered porches to address the need for an active street frontage. Clerestory or dormer windows should be required for side -gabled structures that present a large roof surface toward the street frontage - especially for 2 -story structures. A Frontier style approach is highly preferable for mixed -use development applications which commonly
replaces a gable -covered porch with a balcony useful to upper story occupants.
National Folk style is an acceptable alternative to Craftsman architecture for residential projects that undergo significant value engineering. Where the City may desire more
elaboration to represent a truly Craftsman structure and a project applicant needs to significantly reduce cost, the City should discuss the National style as a suitable approach with similar aesthetic and structural qualities.

DC -1.5 AMERCIAN
CRAFTSMAN STYLE
A renowned architetural style
that is both popular and common
in historic neighborhoods of
Southern California built from1900
to the 1930s, Craftsman structures
can be found in Downtown
Beaumont. It is versitile style
easily applicable to residential and
commercial projects.
Craftsman Style originated in Southern California
and was the dominant style for smaller houses built
throughout the country during the period from about
1905 until the 1930s. One story vernacular homes in
this style became the definitive "California bungalow"
style. Most of Downtown Beaumont residential tracts
developed initially during this period.
The Craftsman style's large covered patios and porches
under low pitched roofs and timber trellises go hand -in - hand with wider windows and screened -in porches. All of this was in service of more opportunities to be sheltered while outdoors. This makes a true craftsman project
suitable for the activated outdoor setting anticipated for Downtown Beaumont.
DC -1.5.1 WHEN BEST TO USE
THE CRAFTSMAN STYLE
The Craftsman style today is still most suitable for
residential developments, from individual homes to
attached products (townhomes) or multifamily. This is
due to it's primarly stick -built structure, high degree of transparency and quantity of windows on facades, and
the amount of covered space at corners and under gables and eave extensions. Still, mixed use and retail projects are encouraged to apply the benefits of these elements to their functional spaces.
Gable extensions with long mass -timber spans create
desirable shaded spaces for outdoor dining, small events, and highly active uses such as bar patios. Additional use of these outdoor spaces may include upper floor tenant
balconies, shelter for bicycle parking, and ADA ramps at entries.
Interior roof -wall junctions and high ceilings with exposed rafter and beam framing serve as highly imageble spaces for retail patrons and multi -family residential entries.
Throughout, an emphasis on timber elements and stacked
stone columb piers and landings evoke Beaumont's
elevated relationship to nearby mountains.
Downtown resiliency benefits include:
Small roof shades, dormer, gable extensions over patio
spaces to create shaded spaces that buffer heat in
variable climates such as inland Southern California.
• Prevalent trellises and pergolas as opportunities to
extend activation outdoors and around the building.
• Grouped windows and multi -pane sashes are ideal for
streetlevel visibility into retail establishments
• Especially for mixed -use and retail: key differentiation from other Beaumont commercial district architecture.

DC -1.6 SPANISH
MISSION STYLE
The Mission Revival movement
was most popular between 1890
and 1920, in numerous residential,
commercial and institutional
structures, particularly schools,
churches, and railroad depots. Its
broad unadorned walls and highly
articulated windows and doorways
is suited to a hot, dry environment.
Aligned styles include Spanish
Revival, Spanish Eclectic.
The Mission Revival style was an architectural movement that began in the late 19th century for a colonial style's revivalism and reinterpretation, which drew inspiration from the late 18th and early 19th century Spanish
missions in California. Based on the long tradition and importance of Spanish missions throughout California, it is sometimes termed California Mission Revival.
The missions' style of necessity and security evolved
around an enclosed courtyard, using massive adobe
walls with broad unadorned plaster surfaces, limited
fenestration and door piercing, low-pitched roofs with
projecting wide eaves and non-flammable clay roof tiles, and thick arches springing from piers. Exterior walls were coated with white plaster (stucco), which with wide side eaves shielded the adobe brick walls from rain. Other
features included long exterior arcades, an enfilade of interior rooms and halls, semi-independent bell -gables, and at more prosperous missions curved 'Baroque'
gables on the principal facade with towers.
DC -1.6.1 WHEN BEST TO
USE THE MISSION STYLE
These architectural elements were replicated, in varying degrees, accuracy, and proportions, in the Mission
Revival structures that can be found throughout the
American Southwest and occasionally elsewhere.
Contemporary construction materials and practices,
earthquake codes, and building uses render the
structural and religious architectural components
primarily aesthetic decoration, while the service
elements such as tile roofing, solar shielding of walls and interiors, and outdoor shade arcades and courtyards are still functional.
Typical features include a low-pitched roof with little or no eave overhang, a red -tiled roof, perhaps a prominent and decorated arch over a door, window or porch, a stucco
wall surface, and usually an asymmetrical facade.
The Mission Revival style of architecture, have
historical, narrative —nostalgic, cultural —environmental associations, and climate appropriateness that have
made for a predominant historical regional vernacular
architecture style in the Southwestern United States,
especially in California.
This style is appropriate to any type of building, yet given its historical prevalence in the style in significant hotels throughout California, the provision of generous, shaded arcades, courtyards, and volumetric composition of
building forms may lend this style best for hospitality, community, and dining facilities.

DC -1.7 EARLY 20TH
CENTURY MODERN
The broad category of Modern
architecture prevalent from the
1920s to the 1950s has roots in the
International Style, High Modernism,
and Art Deco. It was commonly
used in government and commercial
structures in the 1920's to 1940s.
Most commercial architecture today is rooted in what was once a revolutionary shift toward a more efficiently designed, sanitary, and affordable architecture from the 1920s through the mid -20th century period. Early 20th Century modern architecture followed two trends in exterior elaboration for small commercial structures in the United States: art deco, and art modern. Art Modern incorporated simpler
streamlined elements, horizontality, and extensive glazing.
Art Deco was elaborated with unique motifs, more vertical elements, and vertically oriented windows.
This Early 20th Century time period aligns with the original frontage development of 6th St through Beaumont (once
US -99), which retains some of the original Art Moderne and Spanish style architecture. Mid-century and later versions of these movements emphasized sweeping rooflines, indoor - outdoor transparency, and more open floorplans.
These styles are the forebears of contemporary modern
commercial structures, and developers approaching the
City may desire this approach for it's efficiency in materials, constructability, and ease of maintenance. In particular, these two sub -categories have a stronger relationship to the development of historic Downtown Beaumont and are
preferable for Downtown over mid and late -20th century modern modes of architecture. This style option is intended as a broad catch-all category that guides the City in accepting modern architecture while ensuring some traditional
elements, materials, and elaborations. Development that reflects Early 20th Century comemrcial, industrial and mixed use modern styles will likely satisfy this category.
DC -1.7.1 WHEN BEST TO USE
EARLY 20TH CENTURY MODERN
The Modern style is characterized by suitability to a
challenging climate when horizontal elements and projections are used strategically for shading over ground floor and glazed elements. This is a versitile style that achieves programmatic efficiency suitable for the densest projects at the heart of Downtown.
Modern architecture is higly preferable for commercial
frontage, public architecture, and mixed use development.
Developers are encouraged to employ the extensive
storefront systems, corner glazing, wide span openings, and horizontal shading elements typical of modern architecture to ensure a high degree of connection from streetscape to indoor activity. Communicating indoor -outdoor connection was an early impetus for the adoption of modern architecture 100 years ago and is a driving reason it will remain relevant along Downtown's shopfronts today.
Modern architecture, and especially Art Moderne,
are associated with government and institutional
facilities - a result of Depression Era public project
style preferences. This is exemplified by the Banning
High School to the East in the heart of historic Banning.
Spanish Revival is also prevalent in the California
public architecture, as in Beaumont's first City Hall.
The City is encouraged to apply these two styles for
new public projects.

the surrounding area through
the consideration of building
scale, massing, and detailing.
Massing should create a
human -scale environment that
is of high aesthetic quality and
accommodates a variety of design
features. Building massing should
include elements that create a
human -scaled experience that
enhances the context of the
site, and is consistent in scale,
mass and character to adjacent
buildings.
OUTCOMES
1. In Downtown, buildings align to the street at ground level, without setback, unless the design response
includes a purposeful set back to provide an open
private or public space which offers a high level of
amenity, including good solar access, comfortable
wind conditions, seating and landscape elements.
2. Building massing should be broken down into a series of street wall elements to reinforce the vertical grain, rhythm, and scale of its surrounding context.
3. Buildings elements should be scaled to respond to
their context by sensitively and positively addressing
the scale and massing of their adjacent neighbors.
4. Where possible orient buildings so that longer side
aligns the E -W axis allowing the winter sun into the
building to warm it and provide light, while minimizing the effects of the hot summer sun.
5. Must avoid long continuous blank walls at street level in the Downtown area, break up long blank walls with
facade elements such as windows where applicable or
by articulating the facade with patterns of protrusions and recesses.
6. Central courtyards, covered patios, and sheltered
outdoor common areas are highly encouraged.
7. Massing and its composition can be visually varied
or mitigated with layering in elevation with timber
pergolas and trellises, tower, chimney or campanile
elements, parapet extensions, and running balconies
or colonades/arcades.

DC -1.9 CORNERS
AT STREETFRONT
INTENT
To create buildings that reinforce
the hierarchy of the street and
create greater engagement with
the public realm. Corners should
be important focal points in the
streetscape to help reinforce the
definition and importance of the
street, and to provide harmonious
transitions between streets and
alleys, leading to more active and
diverse public spaces.
OUTCOMES
1. Buildings on corner lots should be designed to
positively define and frame the public realm of both
streets they front.
2. Buildings on corner lots should be designed to
acknowledge their location. Different frontage types
can be used on each of the two street facing facades,
the same frontage type can be used on each facade,
or a frontage type can wrap around the corner from
one facade to the other.
3. Encourage public entry to be on or near the corner of the building when a building is located on the corner
of two streets or a street and an alley.
4. Options for corner treatment:
Chamfer building edges on street corners to
prevent blind corners and to highlight entrance
Recess corners to shelter entrance and provide
outdoor public space seating area
If not chamfered or recessed, storefront glazing
should wrap around corner, interrupted only by
an abutting structural corner wall or column.

INTENT
Beaumont sits atop a regional
geographic highpoint and
experiences greater high and low
temperatures relative to many other
coastal and basin communities
in Southern California. Awnings,
shade trellises and other extensions
of building architecture to shelter
outdoor spaces are highly
preferred, especially facing 6th St
and Beaumont Ave.
AWNING OUTCOMES
1. The retail frontage should be enriched with canopies or awnings, which may be fixed or retractable to
shelter pedestrians and to shade the shop front glass
from glare.
2. Awnings provide should be a similar height and width to those in the existing context.
3. Awnings are to be broken into rhythmic segments to
respond to the shop front design.
4. Canopies are at least 5' deep and are used along a
minimum of 50% of facades that face south or west.
5. Canopies do not enclose more than one third of the
width of alleys to preserve outlook to the sky.
6. When transom windows are above display windows,
awnings, canopies, and similar weather protection
elements shall be installed between transom and
display windows. These elements should allow for light
to enter the storefront through the transom windows
and allow the weather protection feature to shade the
display window.

SIGNAGE PROGRAM
DC -2.1 SIGNAGE
PROGRAM PURPOSE
Downtown Beaumont is envisioned
as the heart of a community that's
inviting and accessible to all.
Ensuring that requires a welcoming,
navigable, and recognizable setting
This is achieved through consistent
public signage and appropriate
private signage - essential to a
quality downtown experience.
Elevated experience for residents, visitors, and businesses is a primary goal within the long-term vision for the City of Beaumont, and especially its Downtown. Signage is
among the most straightforward means to achieve that
because it will ensure that all users know where to go, what to expect, and how to think about Downtown. This
section organizes and standardizes Downtown signage
through city -maintained public signage, and through
design and quality control of private signage.
The first two sections present the Downtown Public
Wayfinding Strategy, which includes an overall layout
strategy for public signage types, design concepts for
a kit -of -parts downtown signage suite, and a primer on the design approach, applicability and placement of
those sign types. The latter two sections together form a downtown signage program. This includes a non-
conforming signage removal incentives program, and,
following that, a signage guideline for private realm
signage controls in downtown.
Page539of744
HOW TO USE THIS PROGRAM
The public signage portion of this sign program should
serve as a primer to keep City staff informed of the
elements of a complete signage suite for Downtown. The
Strategy Framework diagram should be used to plan for
placement of signs in public realm renovation designs,
and to quantify those signs in capital improvement
budgeting. The Design Concepts should be provided
to any design firm commissioned to revise and finalize
Downtown signage.
The private signage guidelines, and related non-
conforming signs incentive, should be treated as
supplemental to the City of Beaumont's Sign Ordinance.
The Downtown Signage Guidelines may be used to
further raise the quality of the public realm with more detailed placement, design, and quality rules with new
developments and enforcement efforts.
The Guidelines are broken up into sections:
1. Downtown Public Signage Strategy indicates
recommented locations for a suite of city -installed sign types, with strategic rationale for their placement
2. Downtown Signage Design Concepts provides draft
public sign elevations to guide a final design effort
3. Downtown Private Signage Guidelines serves as a
supplemental design code for downtown private signs
4. Non -Conforming Signs Removal Incentive is a
proposed incentives program to assist in compliance
118
DC -2.2 DOWNTOWN PUBLIC
SIGNAGE STRATEGY
Public signage should be applied
consistently across Downtown
Beaumont, rather than a
peacemeal installation approach.
As Downtown revitalization occurs,
these signs can be installed in a
layered manner, to distribute the
capital costs.
VEHICULAR WAYFINDING STRATEGY
Vehicular wayfinding still has an important role in the navigability of small downtowns, despite the prevalence of smartphones with gps/mapping capability. This
is especially true for new or evolving businesses and
districts such as Downtown. Navigation to less notable
public facilities such as public parking, special event parking, and least-impactful routes into and out of the area for visitors will all lend operational benefits to Downtown's success.
Directionals should be placed at entrypoints to the
district and well before turning decision -points.
Trailblazers should be treated as a "trail of breadcrumbs" where key turns are needed mid way along wayfinding
paths. Consistent and and clearly City -branded parking identification ensures visitors understand a facility as safe and City -operated.
PEDESTRIAN WAYFINDING STRATEGY
Pedestrian scale wayfinding ensures that local navigation does not requires that visitors' heads are down at
smartphones; further, they support a sense of welcoming accessibility to a district. Pedestrian directionals and maps shold be located where people are likely to arrive or depart a destination on -foot, rather than at decision points. They should be visible from the largest adjacent right-of-way as well as from gathering spaces in the heart of a pedetrian area.
DOWNTOWN IDENTITY + BRANDING
Downtown identity and branding signage announces
Downtown Beaumont as a special and distinctive place,
and also has a decorative role in the public realm. It
should be built separately from directionals, and placed consistently at entrypoints along major thoroughfares
into Downtown.
The Pedestrian Area Light Standard and Custom Bollard
are recommended public realm installations which
differentiate pedestrian -oriented spaces from other
streetscapes commonly along roadways. They are
recommended as framing elements at the Grace Ave
Gateway and Town Center opportunity sites. Custom
or supplier catalogued bollards may be placed along
streetscapes expected to have a high volume of
pedestrian activity to bolster walking safety and the
constency of Downtown as a special district.

DC -2.3 DOWNTOWN
PRIVATE SIGNAGE
GUIDELINE
DC -2.3.1 PURPOSE & INTENT
Signs in Downtown Beaumont
should advertise a place of
business or provide directions
and information. An effective sign
and graphics system functions
not as a separate entity but
as an integral part of the built
environment. Design standards
are needed to coordinate well -
designed signs. Carefully planned,
signs communicate essential
information, while also ordering
and enhancing the architectural
character of Downtown Beaumont.
DC -2.3.2 APPLICABILITY
This Downtown Private Signage Guideline applies to
properties fronting both sides of Sixth Street between
Veile Avenue and Palm Avenue, and both sides of
Beaumont Ave from Fifth Street to Seventh Street.
This sign guideline area of applicability includes the
Antique Village District Area special commercial area
and replaces it's criteria with those set forth within this section.
DC -2.3.3 OVERALL OBJECTIVES
A sign's use of color, its size, shape placement, and
selection of lettering can attract or detract from its
effectiveness. An effectively designed sign should:
Be compatible with the surrounding physical and visual
character of the area.
• Promote the "individuality" of establishments.
• Identify the business clearly and attractively.
Enhance the building on which it is located.
Reduce the amount of visual clutter caused by
excessive and poorly placed signage
DC -2.3.4 PREFERRED SIGN TYPES
While many sign types are permitted in Downtown
Beaumont, the following sign types are preferred because they support a pedestrian -oriented environment.
Business wall signs in sign board area at upper portion of first story;
Awning signs;
Under Awning or Under Canopy Signs;
Projecting Signs and Blade Signs;
Murals and supergraphics not advertising a business
(painted on a wall surface);
Permanent painted window signs, first floor permitted
only and limited to 30% of the window area;
Building signs containing the name of the business at
rear entrances used by customers; and,
• Signs made of carved or sandblasted wood.
DC -2.3.5 RELATIONSHIPS
TO OTHER SIGNS
Where there is more than one monument sign located
upon a lot, all such signs shall have designs which are well related to each other by the similar treatment or
incorporated of not less than four of the following six design elements:
• Type of construction materials as used in the
several sign components (such as cabinet, sign
copy, supports);
• Letter style of sign copy;
• Illumination;
• Type or method used for supports, uprights or
structure on which sign is supported;
• Sign cabinet or other configuration of sign area;
• Shape of entire sign and its several components.
DC -2.3.6 GENERAL DESIGN &
PLACEMENT REQUIREMENTS
DC -2.3.6.1 Clear Sign Message: The following
standards address the legibility of downtown signage
and help to ensure the clarity and usefulness of the
information they contain:
• Use a brief message. The fewer the words, the
more effective the sign. A sign with a brief, succinct
message is simpler and faster to read, looks
cleaner and is more attractive.
• Avoid hard -to -read, overly intricate typefaces. These typefaces are difficult to read and reduce the sign's
ability to communicate.
• Lettering should be in proportion to the size of
the sign. As a proportionality rule -of -thumb, the
recommended size of letters is between one -
quarter (1/4) to one-half (2) the height of the sign.
• Sign lettering for wall, projecting, monument,
and blade signs should meet the following
recommendations:
For store fronts 0' - 60' wide, a maximum letter
height of 12" is recommended.
For store fronts 60" wide or greater, a
maximum letter height of 16" is recommended.
123 DOWNTOWN BEAUMONT REVITALIZATION PLAN
Page544of744
• Avoid signs with strange shapes. Signs that are
unnecessarily narrow, oddly shaped, or unrelated to
the products or services being provided on site can
restrict the legibility of the message. If an unusual
shape is not symbolic, it is probably confusing.
• Use widely recognized logos rather than print/test
whenever possible.
• Make signs smaller if they are oriented to
pedestrians. The pedestrian -oriented sign is usually
read from a distance of fifteen to twenty feet; the
vehicle -oriented sign is viewed from a much greater
distance. The closer a sign's viewing distance, the
smaller that sign need be.
DC -2.3.6.2 Sign Color: Sign colors should be compatible with the building architecture. Within shopping centers, sign color should complement the color scheme for the
center. This provision does not apply to noncommercial
messages displayed on signs.
• Colors should be selected to contribute to legibility and design integrity of signage. Even the most
carefully thought out sign may be unattractive and a
poor communicator because of poor color selection.
• A substantial contrast should be provided between
the color and material of the background and the
letters or symbols to make the sign easier to read in
both day and night.
• Limit colors to three on a single sign. Color is most effective when used simply. Too many colors,
particularly accent colors, may distract the reader,
reduce legibility, and make the sign less effective.
• Vertical or horizontal wooden signs can be effectively utilized in a variety of different ways on windows,
building surfaces or as accent bands. A wooden wall
sign can be painted or stained and sealed for a more
natural look, depending upon the appearance of
the surrounding structures. Lettering can consist of
metal or raised wood and when placed within a sign
band, will serve to unify the building facade. Carved
or sandblasted wood signs are also appropriate.
• Metal sign panels can utilize raised lettering on
metal bands. Printing and lettering can also be
applied directly to a flat metal sign band with letters consisting of wood, acrylic or metal.
DC -2.3.6.3 Placement: The following rules ensure the
location of signage is coordinated with it's related project and is appropriately situated in view of the public realm for legibility, accessibility, and urban character:
• Wall signs should be placed such that facade
rhythm, scale, and proportion is established. In many
buildings that have a monolithic or plain facade,
signs can establish or continue appropriate design
rhythm, scale, and proportion.
• Align storefront wall mounted signs and nameplate
signs with other signs on nearby buildings; or if on
the same building, align the bottom edges of the
signs.
• Stand-alone and channel lettering may be allowed if
facing the street front and may be mounted atop an
awning at first level or in the same manner as a wall
sign.
• Projecting, Blade, Awning and Under Awning signs
shall be placed at least 8' above the sidewalk right-
of-way. No projecting sign shall extend above the roof
or parapet line of any building.
• Monument signs should be setback from the public
right-of-way a minimum of five (5) feet.
DC -2.3.7 SIGN TYPE DESIGN &
PLACEMENT REQUIREMENTS
DC -2.3.7.1 Wall Signs: Requirements applicable to
downtown instances of wall signs:
• Wall signs should have a maximum width of 60% of
their leased frontage and the maximum sign area
allowed shall be 75 square. Signs should be an
appropriate scale with the building on which they are
placed and should not overwhelm the architecture of
the building and the character of the neighborhood.
• One wall sign is permitted for each wall face of the
establishment provided there are not more than
four wall signs for any one establishment. If used for
commercial messages, the message must qualify as
onsite.
• Painted wall signs are permitted when determined to
be compatible with the architectural character of the
building and area.
• If the sign contains a logo, said logo shall be a
maximum of 36 inches in height.
• A wall sign may not project any of its height above the roof, eave line or parapet of the wall upon which it is mounted.
DC -2.3.7.2 Awning Signs: Requirements applicable to
downtown instances of awning signs:
• The sign on awnings should be placed on the awning
flap. The flap should be at least eight (8) inches in
height so that the letters and symbols can be big
enough to read easily.

each use or occupancy, one maximum four (4) square foot identification under canopy sign per frontage.
DC -2.3.7.4 Projecting Signs: Requirements applicable to downtown instances of projecting signs:
• Projecting signs should be proportional to the
building facade to which it is attached and should
not exceed ten (10) square feet.
Page545of744
124
• A projecting sign should be hung perpendicular to
and should not project more than six (6) feet from
the face of the building.
• To minimize visual clutter, projecting signs should not be located within close proximity to other hanging
signs or projecting signs, preferably at least twenty-
five (25) feet from each other.
• The placement of a projecting sign should not
impede the safe movement of people or vehicles
within a public right-of-way and should be properly
secured to a building in a structurally sound manner.
Identification signs shall be centered on the lease
space.
DC -2.3.7.5 Monument Signs: Requirements applicable to
downtown instances of monument signs:
• Monument signs should be a maximum of six (6) feet
in height, and not exceed thirty (30) square feet in
area.
• One monument sign is permitted per establishment;
only one monument sign is permitted in a
commercial complex which may be permitted to
identify separate establishments or uses in the
comercial complex, or for noncommercial messages.
One additional monument sign may be permitted on
parcels having more than one frontage and the signs
are located at least 200 feet apart.
• Monument signs should be placed perpendicular to
the street and located to ensure that vehicular and
pedestrian sight distances at entry driveways and
sidewalks are not impaired.
• Monument signs should have no more than two sign
faces.
• Monument signs should be constructed of a solid
architectural base and side, of durable, long-lasting
materials. The materials used should match an
architectural element(s) of the development itself.
Monument signs should be
located and constructed to
allow for natural surveillance
on all sides and to prevent
opportunities for hiding
places.
DC -2.3.7.6 Blade Signs:
Requirements applicable to
downtown instances of blade
signs:
Blade signs are a type
of projecting sign, not
exceeding five (5) feet in
width, which projects out
perpendicularly from a building face, which fits within a bounding box with a horizontal dimension which
does not exceed a 50 percent of the overall height of
the sign from its bottom edge, and may or may not
extend above a roof line.
Example of blade sign on historic
building in Bishop, CA with
example bounding box for blade
sign conformance.
Blade sign top may not exceed roof height by more
than the height of the first level (to second level
finish floor) for multi -story buildings, or, it's overall top height may not be more than twice the building
height for single story buildings.
Parapet and structurally integrated building vertical
extensions used
primarly to support a
sign are considered
blade signs by type in
this special area, and
their bounding box shall
be determined by the
Example of parapet extension
on historic building in Beaumont
with bounding box for blade sign
conformance.
width of the signage panel and its height should begin
at the ground level. See example.
DC -2.3.7.7 Pylon Signs: Requirements applicable to
downtown instances of pylon signs:
• Pylon signs not to exceed 75 square feet in sign
area which may be permitted to identify separate
establishments or uses in the commercial complex,
subject to approval of a sign permit by the Planning
Commission.
• In consideration of pylon signs in this area the
Planning Commission shall consider the need for
compatibility and appropriateness of such signage
at the proposed location, but shall not consider the
message content of the proposed sign, other than the
onsite/offsite distinction for commercial messages.
DC -2.3.7.8 Automobile Service Station Signs: Service
station signs shall be permitted subject to the following requirements:
• Identification/price monument sign: For each
service station, one monument, combination price
and identification sign, maximum 30 square feet in
size and maximum six feet in overall height shall be
permitted, and must include all price advertising as
required by State law.
• Special service signs: Each service station may display two special service signs per pump island. Special
service signs shall be limited to such items as self
serve, full serve, air, water, cashier, and shall be non - illuminated. Such signs must be permanently affixed
to the pump island they identify. Each sign may not
exceed four square feet in overall size.
• Wall signs for automobile service stations shall be
permitted subject to the provisions set forth in Section
17.07.110.A.(1) and (16).

DC -2.4 REMOVING
NON -CONFORMING
SIGNS INCENTIVE
DC -2.4.1 PURPOSE & INTENT
In order to enhance the image and
develop a unified theme for the
City, it is desirable to encourage
the removal of nonconforming
signs at a rapid pace. Therefore,
in order to encourage the removal
of nonconforming signs, the City
may offer owners of nonconforming
signs the following incentives to
hasten their removal.
DC -2.4.2 NON-CONFORMANCE
INCENTIVE REQUIREMENTS
All nonconforming signs shall be removed within five (5) years of the date of adoption of this ordinance package update . Upon adoption of the ordinance, the City shall advise all property owners with non -conforming signs of the new requirements and the City's incentive program
for removal. At the conclusion of the five-year period, it shall be a violation of the City's ordinance to have any non -conforming signs on the property, and the City will undertake enforcement measures to have the signs
removed. Property owners may apply for an extension
up to six (6) months at the conclusion of the five-year period by submitting documentation of a replacement
sign to be installed within the extension timeframe.
DC -2.4.3 INCENTIVE PROGRAM
Owners of nonconforming signs may at their discretion
choose to participate in the following sign removal
incentive program. The City will select a number of
applicants each year to participate in the program based on the priority list of signs provided above and the
availability of funds.
In order to qualify for the nonconforming sign removal
incentive, a sign proposed to be removed must have
been a legal conforming sign at the time of its original placement. (In other words, the sign cannot be illegal).
The nonconforming sign removal incentive program is a
four (4) year program commencing on the effective date
of this ordinance. The program is designed to encourage the rapid removal of the least desirable types of signs by providing larger incentives in the early years and tapering off to no incentives in the fifth year.
The incentives which may be provided are as follows:
Year One
•
Free removal of nonconforming sign.
Payment of an incentive bonus of $1,000 for pole
signs, $500 for all others.
Free design service to provide conforming, attractive
sign sketches.*
Year Two
Free removal of nonconforming sign.
Free design service to provide conforming, attractive
sign sketches*
Years Three and Four
• Free removal of nonconforming sign.
*Those participants availing themselves of the free design service must agree to utilize one of the alternative sketches provided and to erect a new sign within three (3) months of receiving the sketch designs. If said new sign is not erected, the participant will be required to reimburse the City for the cost of the sign design service.

Staff Report
TO: City Council
FROM: Joel Belding, Economic Development Manager
DATE September 17, 2024
SUBJECT: Authorization for Access to California Department of Tax and Fee Administration Sales and Use Tax Records
Description Consideration of a Resolution Authorizing Access to California Department of Tax and Fee Administration Data.
Background and Analysis:
The California Department of Tax and Fee Administration (CDTFA) requires the City to adopt a resolution authorizing one or more of its representatives to have access to CDTFA records. When adopting a resolution, the City is to list all positions that will need access to the confidential sales and use tax records. CDTFA recommends the resolution authorize access to position titles rather than individual names, which will accommodate personnel changes without the need to amend the resolution each time.
Given changes to positions and position titles that have occurred since the prior resolution, Resolution No. 2002-39, was adopted in July 2002, there is a need to adopt a new resolution. The proposed resolution will specifically reference only the City Manager but allow for additional positions to become authorized recipients by transmittal of a letter from the City to CDFTA. This approach will eliminate the need for further amendments to this resolution should positions and position titles change over time, unless CDTFA issues new requirements for access.
This resolution will also authorize continued access for Hinderliter, de Llamas & Associates (HdL), the City's current consulting firm, to assist the City with budgeting, fiscal forecasting, and economic development activities.
Adoption of this resolution will rescind Resolution No. 2002-39. Following adoption of this resolution, the City Manager will convey the resolution and a letter designating additional positions, such as the Finance Director, Community Development Director, and the Economic Development Manager, as authorized representatives to CDFTA.

DATE September 17, 2024
SUBJECT: Authorize Changes to the Uniform Compensation Plan and Position Allocation Table
Description The attached compensation plan has been updated to reflect all new classifications approved in the FY 2025 adopted budget, one title change and additional position request.
Background and Analysis:
On June 4, 2024, Council adopted the FY 24/25 budget with 247 full time equivalent employees.

The new position salaries were studied through subscriptions with Neogov and Govinvest Live Compensation Module.

The City Manager's office seeks to add the Community Development Director position back to the City's classification list.
Fiscal Impact:
The new classifications that were fully budgeted in FY 24/25 budget include the approved Lifeguard, Water Safety Instructor, Pool Manager, Principal Management Analyst and Senior Planner. The additional positions are currently vacant, prior to the position being filled staff will bring back a budget adjustment.
Staff estimates the cost to prepare this staff report is $513.
Recommended Action:

DATE: September 17, 2024
SUBJECT: Agreement for the Purchase of Mitigation Bank Credits for Second Street Extension
Description Authorize an agreement in the amount of $200,000 for the purchase of mitigation bank credits for the Second Street Extension (Project).
Background and Analysis:
The proposed Project includes the extension of Second Street from the westerly boundary of Home Depot to the proposed intersection at Pennsylvania Avenue. The Project will include the construction of a new storm drain facility and improvements to existing drainage and culverts, which will impact approximately 0.36 -acres of California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW) 1602 resources, including three ephemeral streams and roadside drainage with potential riparian habitat.
The City entered into a Streambed Alteration Agreement (EPIMS-RIV-33589-R6) with CDFW that identifies the terms, conditions, and measures to protect the fish and wildlife resources. Accordingly, the City must purchase at least 1.00 (acre) credit from a mitigation bank to compensate for the 0.36 acres of permanent impacts to fish and wildlife resources.
Barry Jones Wetland Mitigation Bank (Shunk Hollow) has prepared an agreement for the sale of one (1.00) mitigation credit in the amount of $200,000 (Attachment A).
Fiscal Impact:
The cost to prepare this staff report is estimated to be $350.
Funding for this Project is provided by CIP R-12 Second Street Extension. The following is a summary of the funding and budget for CIP R-12 Second Street Extension:

TO: City Council
FROM: Robert L. Vestal, Director of Public Works
DATE: September 17, 2024
SUBJECT: Third Amendment to Professional Service Agreement with EXP U.S.
Services, Inc
Description Third Amendment to the Professional Services Agreement for EXP U.S.
Services, Inc. for the Beaumont Master Drainage Plan (MDP) Line 2, Stage 1 Project (CIP 2019-019).
Background and Analysis:
On March 17, 2020, City Council amended the FY19/20 Capital Improvement Project (CIP) Budget to include the Beaumont Master Drainage Plan (MDP) Line 2, Stage 1 Project (Stage 1). Stage 1 was incorporated into the CIP in the amount of $5,000,000 with the source of funds being the Riverside County Flood Control and Water Conservation District (District) via a cooperative funding agreement. On September 1, 2020, City Council approved the cooperative agreement and on September 22, 2020, the District fully executed the agreement. On December 15, 2020, City Council awarded a Professional Service Agreement (PSA) to EXP U.S. Services, Inc. (EXP) to perform preliminary and final engineering services.
On November 15, 2022, City Council approved Amendment No. 1 which modified the scope of services to include additional hydraulic analysis and extended the term of agreement to February 16, 2024.
On August 15, 2023, City Council approved Amendment No. 2 which increased the fees of subconsultants due to the inflation and operating costs and extended the term of the agreement to February 16, 2025.
The third amendment to the professional services agreement is proposed to provide additional environmental services and to extend the term of the contract by one (1) year to February 16, 2026. The original environmental scope was based on providing a Categorical Exemption (CE) for CEQA. Due to changes in the design scope, the project now requires an Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration (IS/MND). As a result of the additional environmental work, EXP is requesting a fee adjustment.
Page568of744
The following is a summary of the EXP fee increase for environmental work:
Scope Original Fee (2020) Revised Fee (2024)
Environmental Clearance $81,835.00 $155,189.70
The revised environmental fee represents a rounded increase in cost of $73,355. This results in a revised total contract cost not to exceed $597,420 for the PSA. A summary of the contract amendments to date including the proposed Amendment No. 3 is provided in the following table.

$442,214.00
$61,847.00
$20,003.96
$73,355.00
$597,420.00
Project Background and Update:
The original environmental scope anticipated that the proposed storm drain would connect to the existing 78" storm drain within the street right-of-way, avoiding any construction in the Berkshire Channel where the outlet of the pipe is located. The results of the hydrology/hydraulic study showed that the existing 78" storm drain outlet was not large enough and recommended a new 102" storm drain outlet into Berkshire Channel. This also requires a new headwall in the channel. With work now required within the channel, the environmental document is elevated to an IS/MND. The proposed environmental work includes coordination with regulatory agencies and additional technical studies.
Final environmental clearance is anticipated to be completed by July 2025.
Fiscal Impact:
The cost of preparing the staff report is estimated to be $500.
The funding for this contract amendment will be paid from the Beaumont Master Drainage Plan (MDP) Line 2, Stage 1 Project (CIP2019-019) budget.

Task 3: Technical Studies
Task 3.1: Air Quality and Noise
Task 3.1.1: Construction Air Quality and GHG
CONSULTANT will prepare the Air Quality Impact Analysis to meet County and South Coast Air Quality Management District (SCAQMD) CEQA requirements. Impact analyses will be prepared consistent with the analytical methodology, technical requirements and significance criteria outlined by the SCAQMD in their CEQA Air Quality Handbook (as updated per the SCAQMD website).
The regulatory and environmental setting discussion will include a summary of relevant federal, state, and local laws, rules, and regulations; a summary of local pollutant concentration and climate data; descriptions of the affected resource areas for air quality and climate change; and identification/descriptions of sensitive receptor locations.
The California Emissions Estimator Model (CalEEMod) will be used to quantify short-term construction and long-term operations emissions. Daily emissions will be compared to SCAQMD local and regional significance criteria. Mitigation measures will be developed to address any significant impacts. The potential for odor and health -risk impacts are low; and as such, odor and health -risk impacts will be addressed qualitatively.
It is anticipated that Project -level carbon monoxide (CO) and particulate matter (PM) hot -spot analyses will be addressed qualitatively. And finally, discussions of cumulative impacts and Project consistency with the SCAQMD air quality management plan (AQMP) will be provided.
The GHG Emissions and Climate Change Analysis will be prepared to meet City and SCAQMD CEQA requirements. The regulatory and environmental setting discussion will include a summary of relevant federal, State, and local laws, rules, and regulations; a summary of potential climate change effects; a summary of state and local GHG emissions inventories; and historical climate data.
Ca1EEMod will be used to quantify short-term construction, and long-term operations emissions.
Daily emissions will be compared to SCAQMD preliminary significance criteria. Mitigation measures will be developed to address any significant impacts. Discussions of cumulative impacts, and Project consistency with the Southern California Association of Governments (SCAG) Sustainable Communities Strategy, the Assembly Bill (AB) 32 Scoping Plan, and relevant County policies and/or initiatives will be provided.
Both the air quality and GHG analysis will be documented as a standalone study. The results of the Air Quality and GHG Impact Analysis will be summarized in the CEQA environmental document.
Deliverables: One draft and one final version of the AQ and GHG Impact Analysis submitted electronically for City and/or Project team review. Results to be incorporated into the environmental document.
Task 3.1.2: Construction Noise and Vibration
CONSULTANT will conduct a noise analysis of construction impacts related to the Project. The Project would consist of 5,000 feet of reinforced concrete pipe being placed underground. A desktop review identified that the majority of the Project alignment is not noise sensitive, however a portion of the Project alignment along 1st Street does run parallel to residences.
Along with the residences identified toward the southern section of the alignment, CONSULTANT will identify any other noise sensitive land uses located in the general vicinity of the Project which could be impacted by noise and vibration during construction. Based on the scope of the analysis it is assumed that ambient noise measurements will not be necessary.
A generalized noise and vibration analysis will be developed using construction information provided by the Project Engineer along with published data for construction equipment and established modeling methodology (e.g., the Federal Highway Administration Roadway Construction Noise Model (RCNM) and the Federal Transit Administration Noise and Vibration Manual).
Based on the nature of the Project operational noise would generally be negligible. Therefore, it is assumed that operational noise will be addressed qualitatively.
The City generally exempts construction except for interior levels which could exceed the City's municipal code at residence. Therefore, impacts from construction activities on the nearby noise and vibration sensitive land uses will be characterized relative to the relevant City standards. Where significant impacts are noted, CONSULTANT will propose separate mitigation measures for the sensitive uses along First Street, which could vary based on construction operations and schedules which the noise and vibration would be reduced where practicable. The results of the noise analysis
will be summarized in a standalone technical study and the results summarized in the CEQA environmental document. The Noise and Vibration Impact Analysis will provide a discussion of the Project's physical and regulatory setting, the evaluation methodology and results, and several different mitigation measures which may need to be implemented during Project construction.
Deliverables: One draft and one final version of the Noise and Vibration Analysis submitted electronically for City and/or Project team review. Results to be incorporated into the environmental document.
Task 3.2: Biological Resources
Task 3.2.1: Biological Assessment, Multiple Species Habitat Conservation Plan Analysis, Jurisdictional Delineation and Letter Report
In accordance with the Riverside County Multiple Species Habitat Conservation Plan (MSHCP), CONSULTANT will conduct a biological resources survey and habitat assessment and prepare a consistency analysis to address potential impacts to resources regulated by the MSHCP, including sensitive plant and wildlife species or waterways and riparian corridors. CONSULTANT will use Geographic Information Systems (GIS) software to map the site in relation to MSHCP areas including Criteria Cells; U.S. Department of Agriculture soils data; U.S. Geological Survey data for state and federal waters; conservation areas and wildlife movement corridors and linkages; Criteria Area Species Survey Areas for plant, bird, mammal, and amphibian species; Narrow Endemic Plants Survey Area; and survey requirements for inadequately covered species. The Riverside County Integrated Project (RCIP) Conservation Summary Report will be queried to determine habitat assessment and potential survey requirements for the Project. In addition, CONSULTANT will determine if there are any records of listed and/or sensitive plant and wildlife species and communities occurring on or in the immediate vicinity of the Project site. This task will include a review of the California Natural Diversity Database (CNDDB) and the California Native Plant Society's Electronic Inventory (CNPSEI), and the United States Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS). A survey area map will be created to identify the area to be analyzed in the report.
After conducting the literature search, biologists will conduct a habitat assessment survey of the proposed Project site, CONSULTANT biologists will document the presence of common and sensitive biological resources, both flora and fauna, within the proposed Project boundaries. The field survey will focus primarily on determining the potential presence of federal- and state -listed or otherwise sensitive plant and wildlife species and sensitive habitats, including burrowing owl (Athene cunicularia). If any sensitive species are present, the biologists will determine the appropriate avoidance and minimization measures. Plant communities will be mapped, and the habitat will be assessed for the potential occurrence for sensitive species. Photographs will be taken to document the current conditions of the survey area. Lists of all species of plants and animals observed during the survey will be recorded.
In addition, the field survey determines if any potential waters and wetland habitats are present on the site and will be evaluated using the methodology set forth in the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USAGE) Wetland Delineation Manual (USACE 1987) and will utilize the Arid West Regional Delineation Supplement. Surveyors will walk the Project area identifying and mapping limits of
jurisdiction with the Global Positioning System (GPS). Suspected USACE/ Regional Water Quality Control Board (RWQCB)/California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW) jurisdictional areas will be field checked for the presence of definable channels within the survey area. The surveyor will document the boundary of the Ordinary High -Water Mark (OHWM) and bank to bank features within the survey area. Hydrologic indicators include evidence of inundation, saturation, watermarks, drift lines, and sediment deposits. The boundaries of the hydrological feature will be mapped in a shape file that can be distinguished by respective Agencies' jurisdiction, based on current Agency guidance documents.
After completing the biological survey, CONSULTANT will prepare a biological letter report for the Project. The report will include an introduction, methods used to conduct the survey, results of the survey documenting the existing biological resources MSHCP consistency analysis, a discussion of sensitive plant and wildlife species with the potential to occur on -site, MSHCP analysis, and a discussion of sensitive plant and wildlife species with the potential to occur on -site, and any waters or wetlands on -site. The report will include current photographs and maps documenting existing conditions and the locations of any sensitive or listed species occurring, or potentially occurring onsite. Protection measures for sensitive species that are known to occur on site or in the immediate vicinity of the site will also be included.
The report will include up to 25 pages of text and eight graphics, photographs of the site and appendices. One electronic copy of the draft memo report will be provided for review within 3 weeks of completion of the survey. CONSULTANT will incorporate one round of comments into the final report within 1 week of receiving comments on the draft report. Electronic copies of the final report will be submitted.
Task 3.2.2: Determination of Biological Equivalent or Superior Preservation In accordance with the Riverside County MSHCP, CONSULTANT will prepare a Determination of Biological Equivalent or Superior Preservation (DBESP) to address temporal impacts to resources regulated by Section 6.1.2 of the MSHCP. A DBESP is required when a proposed Project action directly and/or indirectly impacts MSHCP regulated riparian/riverine/vernal pool resources or conflicts with guidelines for specific MSHCP covered floral and faunal species. The DBESP will discuss and demonstrate that implementation of avoidance and/or mitigation measures would result in an alternative that is biologically equivalent or superior to existing conditions. In addition, the DBESP will address compliance with MSHCP requirements and include a MSHCP consistency analysis.
CONSULTANT will deliver one electronic copy of the Draft DBESP Report within 3 weeks following completion of the site visit. CONSULTANT will incorporate one round of comments from the Draft Report into a Final Report.
Assumptions:
• The cost for the field effort for Task 3.2.1 includes two biologists surveying for one full day and associated travel time.
• Task 3.2 does not include protocol -level surveys for listed or otherwise sensitive species. If required, CONSULTANT will be pleased to provide these services under a separate cost and scope of work.
• Additional meetings, agency consultations, permitting and additional sensitive species memos are not included in this scope of work. If required, CONSULTANT will be pleased to provide these services under a separate cost and scope of work. • This scope of work does not include a waters assessment or a formal jurisdictional delineation. Although not anticipated, if a delineation of waters is required, CONSULTANT can provide as a separate cost and scope of work.
Deliverables: One electronic copy of the draft and final report. Results to be incorporated into the environmental document.
Task 3.3: Cultural Resources and Consultation
Task 3.3.1: Records Search Requests & Literature Review CONSULTANT will conduct a literature review, including a review of the findings of a records search through the California Historical Resources Information System (CHRIS) database at the appropriate Information Center (IC). The records search will be conducted by IC staff and review relevant previously recorded cultural resources and previous investigations completed for the half -mile search radius surrounding the Project site. Information to be reviewed will include location maps for all previously recorded cultural resources, previously conducted investigation boundaries, National Archaeological Database (NADB) citations and copies for associated reports, historic maps, and historic addresses. CONSULTANT will also review properties listed on/as the California Points of Historical Interest (CPHI), California Historical Landmarks (CHL), California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) Historic Highway Bridge Inventory, California Historical Resources Inventory, local City and County registries of historic properties, the California Register of Historic Resources (CRHR), and the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP). Additional sources of information that may be reviewed include but are not limited to Certified Local Government annual reports and other data, Historic American Buildings Survey/Historic American Engineering Record (HABS/HAER) records, the National Register Information System, the on-line database for National Register sites, Calisphere Digital Resources, Online Archive of California, General Land Office Plat Maps, Sanborn Fire Insurance Maps, local historical societies and libraries, as well as inventory files and data on -file with other agencies that control property near the area. The task will also include a search for potential prehistoric and/or historic burials (human remains) evident in previous site records and/or historical maps (i.e., Sanborn Fire Insurance Maps, General Land Office Plat Maps). A paleontological records search will also be completed for the half -mile search radius surrounding the Project site by the relevant Natural History Museum.
In addition to the above research, a request that the Native American Heritage Commission (NAHC) will be submitted for a review of their sacred land files (SLF). This search will identify if any resources important to Native Americans have been recorded within the Project site and surrounding vicinity.
The NAHC will provide the results and a list of affiliated tribal representatives to contact for additional information. CONSULTANT will provide the results of the NAHC SLF search and list of tribes in the desktop cultural resources letter report. Note: This research alone does not satisfy the lead agency's
