PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 2025-
A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF
BEAUMONT RECOMMENDING THAT THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE
CITY OF BEAUMONT ADOPT AN ORDINANCE FOR THE
COMPREHENSIVE UPDATE OF TITLE 17 "ZONING," OF THE
BEAUMONT MUNICIPAL CODE.
WHEREAS, the last comprehensive zoning code update was adopted in 2007; and WHEREAS, on December 1, 2020, the Beaumont City Council adopted the 2040 General Plan and Implementation, which included implementation measures for a comprehensive zoning code update; and
WHEREAS, on November 21, 2023, the Beaumont City Council awarded Lisa Wise Consulting a contract to begin a comprehensive zoning code update; and WHEREAS, on July 16, 2024, the Beaumont City Council and Planning Commission held a joint workshop to review the administrative draft of the Background and Recommendations Report for the comprehensive zoning code update; and
WHEREAS, comments provided were incorporated into the Public Review Draft; and WHEREAS, on February 13, 2025, the Beaumont Planning Commission held a workshop to review the Public Review Draft of the comprehensive code update and provide comments and recommendations; and
WHEREAS, on March 13, 2025, the Beaumont City Council held a workshop to review the Public Review Draft of the comprehensive code update and provide comments and recommendations; and
WHEREAS, Planning staff received comments from internal City staff; and WHEREAS, comments provided at the workshops and by City Staff were incorporated into the Public Hearing Draft; and
WHEREAS, in accordance with Section 17.02.080 of the Beaumont Municipal Code, the Planning Commission must hold a noticed public hearing for the comprehensive zoning code
update and forward a recommendation to the City Council by resolution (Resolution 2025- ) to approve, approve with modifications, or deny the proposed application; and WHEREAS, on October 22, 2025, the Beaumont Planning Commission held a public hearing regarding the comprehensive zoning code update, and public comments were received concerning Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) regulations regarding setbacks, height limitations, and owner -occupancy provisions as part of the administrative record. Due to the comments received, staff requested that the public hearing be continued to the November 19, 2025, Special Planning Commission Meeting.
WHEREAS, on November 19, 2025, after duly conducting the hearing, the Planning Commission adopted Resolution 2025- recommending that the City Council adopt an ordinance for the comprehensive zoning code update; and WHEREAS, in accordance with Section 17.02.080.G., upon receipt of the Planning Commission resolution recommending approval of the comprehensive code update, the City Council must hold a public hearing to review the Planning Commission's recommendation; and NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, by the Planning Commission, does hereby recommends that the City Council approve the comprehensive zoning code update, in the form presented at this meeting, based upon the following facts and findings:
SECTION 1. Recitals. The above recitals are hereby incorporated herein by this reference.
SECTION 2. Administrative Record. The Planning Commission has considered all of the evidence submitted into the administrative record for the recommendations listed in this resolution, including, but not limited to, the following:
1. Beaumont, California — Code of Ordinances and Beaumont General Plan;
2. Staff Report;
3. Public Hearing Draft and Zoning Map;
4. CEQA Memorandum;
5. Testimony and/or comments from interested parties submitted to the City in both written and oral form at, or prior to, the public hearing conducted at the Planning Commission meeting;
6. All other documents in the possession of the City and relevant to this Resolution.
SECTION 3. Environmental Findings. Further, the approval of an ordinance adopting the comprehensive zoning code update is consistent with the provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15168 (c)(2). The proposed amendments in the Comprehensive Zoning Code and Zoning Map Update implement the General Plan as described in the attached CEQA Memorandum. As such, none of the conditions that require a subsequent EIR (described above by Public Resources Code Section 21166 and CEQA Guidelines Section 15162) apply to the Comprehensive Zoning Code and Zoning Map Update, as:
• The proposed amendments do not entail substantial changes that would require significant revisions to the General Plan Program EIR, and
• There is no new information that was not considered in the General Plan Program EIR that indicates potentially significant effects, increased severity of previously described significant effects, or that previously rejected mitigation measures or alternatives are feasible or would substantially reduce significant effects on the environment.
Therefore, the project satisfies the criteria described in CEQA Guidelines Section 15168, as the Comprehensive Zoning Code and Zoning Map Update is within the scope of the project (i.e., General Plan) covered by the Program EIR.
Further, no minor technical changes or additions to the General Plan Program E1R are necessary to reflect the proposed amendments. As such, an DR addendum is not required (CEQA Guidelines Section 15164).
SECTION 4. Recommendation. The Planning Commission recommends that the City Council adopt an ordinance to comprehensively update Title 17 "Zoning" to clarify regulations and improve the overall effectiveness of the zoning code in supporting the implementation of the City of Beaumont General Plan.
SECTION 5. Severability. That if any provision, section, paragraph, sentence, or word of this Resolution be rendered or declared invalid by any final court action in a court of competent jurisdiction, or by reason of any preemptive legislation, the remaining provisions, sections, paragraphs, sentences, or words of this Resolution as hereby adopted shall remain in full force and effect.
PASSED, APPROVED, AND ADOPTED at the regular meeting of the Planning Commission of the City of Beaumont, California, held on the 19th day of November 2025, by the following roll call vote:

Staff Report
TO: City Council
FROM: Katie Jenson, Assistant Planner
Aron Liang, Planner Manager
Steven D. Jones, Community Development Director
DATE: December 2, 2025
SUBJECT: Hold a Public Hearing to Consider an Ordinance Amending Food Truck, Peddler, and Sidewalk Vending Regulations
Description: Introduction of an ordinance expanding provisions to streamline, improve efficiency of the food truck review and approval process, and align with contemporary mobile food truck, peddler, and sidewalk vending trends.
Background and Analysis:
On April 5, 2022, the City Council adopted Ordinance No. 1147 to revise food truck permit provisions within the Beaumont Municipal Code (BMC), aligning local regulations with applicable state law, with the intent to promote public health, safety, and welfare while supporting a diverse range of innovative and nontraditional business activities.
Prior to its adoption, the City Council requested a follow-up report to evaluate the ordinance's effectiveness post -implementation.
On September 2, 2025, the City Council held a discussion on food truck permit activity and directed staff to prepare amendments to the ordinance governing food trucks and similar mobile vendors.
On November 19, 2025, staff presented the proposed ordinance to the Planning Commission, requesting a recommendation of approval be forwarded to the City Council. The Planning Commission voted unanimously 3-0 in favor with 2 members being absent, recommending the approval of the ordinance to the City Council.
Key Provisions of Proposed Ordinance
Key issues identified during the discussion that are addressed in the draft ordinance include:
1. Frequency and consistency of inspections;
2. Establishment of designated vending zones and timing allowances for single - location operations;
3. Lack of clarity in the permitting process and the need for concise, streamlined guidelines for business license renewals and event coordination on city property or at city -sponsored events; and
4. Potential impacts on existing brick -and -mortar businesses.
Stakeholders emphasized the need for a more predictable and business -friendly regulatory framework. In response, the draft ordinance proposes updates to inspection schedules, business license renewal frequency, and clearer, more efficient permit processing procedures. It also introduces revised approaches for managing vendor participation in events held on City property and those sponsored by the City.
Frequency of inspections
Regulations previously required quarterly inspections while other business licenses are only subject to annual renewals. An annual inspection frequency is proposed except for food trucks that have been shown to be out of compliance with regulatory provisions or have been reported to be the source of food -borne illnesses by Riverside County that would still need additional inspections.
Designated vending areas and single location timing allowance Timing and location provisions on public property are proposed to be clarified to assist entrepreneurs to know where locations are accessible, safe, and developed with infrastructure to accommodate use of the public right-of-way. In addition to codified expounding provisions, the City website would be updated with clarifying material including a GIS layer to depict the clearer language and a reporting system to identify appropriate operational locations in accordance with established standards. This system would offer the dual benefits of allowing operators to advertise their current locations to the public in real time, while also enabling staff to monitor compliance with approved operating zones and designated time limits.
If approved, food trucks would be better able to serve remote business areas during the times commercial or industrial facilities are in operation. A private property food truck permit would be required with requisite fees, review, analysis, and approval if food trucks propose to operate on private property for more than four (4) hours within any 24 - hour period. Provisions would also authorize the Director of Community Services to approve food truck presence with certain activities, including sports leagues events and city -sponsored events with clear guidelines and policies for their use in addition to approved special events through a park rental application. Park rental applications for reserved food truck areas in city parks shall be submitted to the Community Services department for review.
Concise guidelines and streamlined permit processing
The responsibilities for activities within the public right-of-way are proposed to be clarified to be those of the City Engineer to promote and secure orderly and efficient public right-of-way maintenance. This will ensure the public health, welfare and safety of the City. The business license issuance process would continue to be administered by the City's customer service representatives of the Administrative Services Department.
Reduction of Impacts on brick -and -mortar businesses
Provisions are proposed that would enable restaurants owners who have brick -and - mortar businesses to use their own food trucks at their own restaurant locations as an exception to the rule of maintaining the clarified one (1) -block buffer.
Environmental Determination:
The actions contemplated by the proposed ordinance are exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). No review is required pursuant to Section 15061(b)(3), because there is no possibility that the implementation of ordinance provisions may have a significant effect upon the environment. The proposed text amendments constitute a minor alteration in a land use limitation under CEQA Guidelines Section 15305, and such a land use limitation is a permissible exercise of the City's zoning powers.
Fiscal Impact:
The cost to prepare and advertise this item was approximately $500.
If approved and adopted, implementation, administration, and enforcement of the proposed ordinance amendments regulating sidewalk vending, peddlers, and food truck permits would continue to be accommodated within the City's existing fee schedule framework. Existing permit and inspection fees are anticipated to offset staff time associated with application processing, field verification, and compliance monitoring. No additional General Fund appropriation would be required, and ongoing program costs are expected to be recovered through established user fees and administrative processes.
Recommended Action:
Hold a public hearing; and
Waive the first full reading and approve with the intent to adopt by title only, "An Ordinance of the City Council of the City of Beaumont, California, Regulating Business Activity Within the Public Right -of -Way and Public Property Amending Portions of Title 5 `Business Taxes Licenses, and Regulations', Chapter 6.54 `Peddlers,' Chapter 5.66 `Sidewalk Vending,' and Chapter 5.72 'Food Trucks' of the Beaumont Municipal Code".

Staff Report
TO: City Council
FROM: Aron Liang, Planning Manager
Steven D. Jones, Community Development Director
DATE: December 2, 2025
SUBJECT: Public Hearing to Introduce and hold First Reading of an Ordinance Amending Chapter 8.54 of the Beaumont Municipal Code to Expand Registration and Maintenance Requirement for Vacant and Abandoned Properties
Description: Consideration of introduction and first reading of an ordinance expanding provisions for the vacant and abandoned property registry to include commercial, industrial, and other non-residential properties.
Background and Analysis:
On October 21, 2025, City Council provided direction to staff for the expansion of registration of abandoned and foreclosed residential properties to streamline violation abatement and access control, increase owner accountability and contact responsiveness, and discourage long-term vacancy and blight citywide.
On November 19, 2025, the Beaumont Planning Commission was presented with draft regulations to recommend to the City Council approval with modifications, the proposed ordinance.
Beaumont Municipal Code (BMC) Chapter 8.50 "Regulation of Abandoned Residential Properties" was adopted on September 16, 2008, to regulate abandoned or foreclosed residential properties. The Planning Commission directed staff to incorporate language on responsible property ownership, including the need for contact information in the intent and purpose section, revise the proration provision, and forward a recommendation for the City Council to consider alternative registration fees based on property type.
Draft Ordinance
Key Provisions:
The Planning Commission's recommendation included clarifying that the purpose of collecting property information is to promote ownership accountability and stewardship.
Maintaining an up-to-date registry supports real-time information sharing, enabling property owners to address violations more quickly, eliminate conditions that attract nuisances, and secure hazardous or open structures and areas. These revisions emphasize the importance of well -maintained properties, contributing to a safer and more attractive Beaumont for both residents and businesses.
The Commission also requested clearer definitions of the types of properties required for registration and the timing of registration. The attached draft ordinance clarifies the distinction between abandoned and vacant properties. Properties that are observed to be in a distressed condition for up to 90 days would be subject to daily inspection fees, in addition to any fines assessed for BMC violations of the BMC.
Although the City Council has already adopted a fee study that includes both a registry fee and a property inspection fee, the Planning Commission has asked the Council to consider implementing tiered registration fees based on property size and/or type.
Currently, the adopted fee is tied to the collection of information rather than the property's physical characteristics or zoning, no fee adjustments were incorporated into the current draft ordinance.
Consistency with Adopted Goals, Plans and Programs:
General Plan Consistency
The proposed recommendation is in conformance with Beaumont General Plan Economic Development + Fiscal Implementation Program EDF24 Reinvestment Opportunities to facilitate and/or pursue reinvestment opportunities to assist in adaptive reuse of vacant or underutilized properties. If approved, the ordinance would turn a reactive property neglect issue into a strategic tool for economic development.
Meets General Plan goals by:
• Preserving property value and marketability,
• Reducing uncertainty for reinvestment, and
• Creating conditions conducive to adaptive reuse, infill development, and long-term economic sustainability.
Public Communications Received:
A 10 -day public notice was placed in the Press Enterprise on November 22, 2025. At the time of report preparation, no comment letters from the public in favor or opposition to the project were received.
Environmental Determination:
The Planning Commission recommended actions contemplated by the proposed ordinance are exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to 15061(b)(3), no CEQA review is required because there is no possibility that the draft ordinance may have a significant effect upon the environment, the proposed text amendments constitute a minor alteration in a land use limitation under CEQA Guidelines Section 15305, and such a land use limitation is a permissible exercise of the City's zoning powers.
Fiscal Impact:
If approved, registration and maintenance requirements update implementation would be supported by existing staff resources. Future vacant and abandoned property ordinance administration and enforcement would continue under the City's adopted fee schedule for code enforcement/community enhancement and property inspection services.
The estimated cost to prepare this report is $250.
Recommended Action:
Hold a public hearing; and,
Waive the first full reading and approve with the intent to adopt by title only, "An Ordinance of the City Council of the City of Beaumont, California, To Expand Registration and Maintenance Requirements for Vacant and Abandoned Properties Citywide." Attachments:

Staff Report
TO: City Council
FROM: Brittany Navas, Grants Analyst
Aron Liang, Planning Manager
Steven D. Jones, Community Development Director
DATE: December 2, 2025
SUBJECT: Consideration of the Beaumont 2026-2027 Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Program
Description: Consideration of City Council approval of the Beaumont 2026-2027 CDBG Program Supplemental Agreement, funding the Pedestrian Sidewalk Safety Improvement Project Phase II and activities by local nonprofit organizations.
Background and Analysis:
During its meeting on December 5, 2023, the City Council identified priority activities in the City of Beaumont Strategic Plan 2025-27. The proposed applications for funding use detail the allocation of the City's proposed CDBG entitlement funds, totaling $147,680, with $127,680 to be allocated to the Pedestrian Sidewalk Safety Improvement Project Phase II and $20,000 proposed administered by the County for the nonprofit activities conducted by the Boys and Girls Clubs of San Gorgonio Pass and Voices for Children.
These projects were selected to address critical community needs and align with the City's goals for improving infrastructure and supporting local services for summer camps and a school break program, and foster children advocacy through the Court Appointed Special Advocate (CASA) program. If approved, an agreement with Riverside County would specifies the City's obligations for compliance, project implementation, and reporting under the CDBG program, ensuring alignment with federal guidelines.
Fiscal Impact:
There is no impact to the City's General Fund, as all activities are fully supported through CDBG allocations.
The City has been allocated an estimated $147,680 in CDBG entitlement funds for the 2026-2027 program year, with $127,680 earmarked for City -administered activities. If approved, the remaining $17,000 and $3,000 for countywide programs, including the Boys and Girls Club and Voices for Children, would be available from Riverside County.
The estimated cost to prepare this report is $250.
Recommended Action:
Approve the 2026-2027 CDBG Program; and
Authorize the City Manager to execute the agreement and return required documentation to the County of Riverside.

DATE: September 29, 2025
RE: Notice of Funding Availability (NOFA) for the County of Riverside's 2026- 2027 Urban County Community Development Block Grant Program Attached please find a copy of the Notice of Funding Availability (NOFA) for the County of Riverside's 2026-2027 Urban County CDBG program for Cooperating Cities. The County opened the 2026-2027 CDBG application cycle starting September 29, 2025.
2026-2027 Action Plan/Funding Cycle
Applications will be accepted from cooperating cities for both internal (city -administered projects) as well as applications from the cities' subrecipients including non-profit organizations, special districts, or other entities. All applications are due no later than December 18, 2025.
We ask that cities please submit applications to HWS staff for pre-screening prior to consideration by the City Council to ensure that the proposed applications comply with all the CDBG program requirements.
Applications are evaluated for several factors, including priority needs and local objectives outlined in the City's Five -Year Consolidated Plan, community feedback gathered through the public participation process, the cost-effectiveness of the proposed project (including the leveraging of CDBG funds with other resources), and the applicant's past grant performance, if applicable.
The County will only accept hard -copy, paper applications from the cooperating cities for the 2026-2027 cycle. A copy of the approved 2026-2027 CDBG Application has been attached to this NOFA. A fillable pdf version of the CDBG application is available upon request. An original and one copy of each proposal must be submitted to the County together with a resolution or minute order from your Council approving the projects and authorizing the submittal of the applications.
Your city's 2026-2027 CDBG allocation is estimated to be $147,680; this allocation is based upon updated information from HUD and is subject to change.
Each cooperating city is responsible for planning, designing, and carrying out its own CDBG application process that best meets the needs of its city. The cities can decide to fund only internal city - administered projects, external subrecipient projects, or a combination of the two. The city council will make the final funding decisions based on the city's priority community development needs. 3403 Tenth Street, Suite 300 I Riverside, CP 13IEF®f<1(1)52 374-3098 I Phone: (951) 955-1161
The County has established several minimum thresholds concerning the cooperating cities' CDBG application process:
1. The process must be open and fair;
2. The city must publically notice (newspapers, city website, social media) the opening of the city's 2026-2027 CDBG application cycle;
3. The notice should reference the County's Notice of Funding Availability (NOFA) for the County of Riverside's 2026-2027 Urban County CDBG program for Cooperating Cities;
4. The notice should be published in both English and Spanish if a significant portion of the city's residents speak Spanish — if there is a significant number of residents that predominantly speak another language, the city should publish their notice in that language as well;
5. The notice must provide direction as to where applications can be obtained, when the applications are due, and other application submittal instructions;
6. The notice will identify any funding priorities established by the city (e.g., senior programs, street improvements, youth programs, etc.);
7. The city must allow at least 30 days for the application process;
8. The public notice must provide information on the application review and approval process (e.g., staff review/council approval; staff review/committee review/ council approval, etc.);
9. The public notice must identify a contact person for questions and assistance; and
10. The notice must contain the date, time, and location where the city council will make the final 2026-2027 CDBG funding determinations.
Your city can only submit proposals for activities that have been identified in the 2024-2029 Five Year Consolidated Plan as a priority activity for CDBG funding.
Please take time to review the Timeliness and Drawdown section of the NOFA, particularly as it relates to project readiness and timely completion. Currently, your city has one (1) open capital funded projects. As a result, the City cannot apply for 26/27 CDBG funding if those projects are not expected to be completed by April 1, 2026. The City is not at risk of losing 26/27 CDBG funding. It will roll over and be available for the City to apply for the following year. If the City anticipates completing the active projects by April 1, 2026, you may disregard this notice and submit a funding application as instructed in this letter.
We encourage you to carefully review your current opened projects and provide a timeline and drawdown plan. Our team is available to assist you in planning for timely project implementation and successful outcomes.
HWS requests that any capital projects under consideration be shovel -ready and capable of being completed within 12 months of receiving funds. This timeline is important to help the program remain in compliance with HUD requirements and to ensure that awarded funds are used quickly and effectively.
For additional information regarding the 2026-2027 CDBG application cycle, please contact the CDBG Program Manager assigned to your city or:

IV. PROJECT NARRATIVE
A. Provide a detailed Project Description. The description should only address or discuss the specific activities, services, or project that is to be assisted with CDBG funds. If CDBG funds will assist the entire program or activity, then provide a description of the entire program or activity.
The Boys & Girls Clubs of the San Gorgonio Pass (BGCSGP) has offered Camp Kids, a dynamic summer camp and school break program in Beaumont, for over ten years. These full -day camps, held at Sundance and Brookside Elementary Schools,operate Monday through Friday, from 6:30 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. The camps are designed to provide at -risk youth with a safe, supportive, and enriching environment where they can learn and thrive. While parents are at work, they can have peace of mind knowing their children are in a secure, educational, and fun setting.
In addition to supporting working families, our Camp Kids program enhances public safety by offering youth a constructive place to go during out -of -school hours. Currently, about 10.9% of youth in Beaumont live in poverty (shaperivco.orgj.
Numerous studies indicate that low-income students typically lose approximately two months of math and reading skills over the summer, while their wealthier peers often make slight gains.
For socio-economically disadvantaged youth,out-of-school time can lead to significant academic setbacks. BGCSGP helps bridge these gaps; children who attend the Club during summer and school breaks continue to learn and minimize their academic learning loss. Through programs like Summer Brain Gain and Healthy Habits, youth engage in interactive activities to enhance their knowledge. Exciting guest speakers provide informational presentations to enhance their learning.
Grant funding from CDBG would enable us to continue to deliver impactful programming for at -risk youth and support working families who need care for their children.
B. Provide a detailed description of the proposed use of the CDBG funds only (e.g. construction design, purchase of specific equipment, rent, supplies, utilities, salaries, etc.):
BGCSGP is dedicated to addressing the many challenges faced by the low to moderate -income youth we serve. CDBG funds will be primarily allocated to threekey areas: staffing support. program supplies and guest speakers. Through our partnership with the Beaumont Unified School District, we receive funding that allows us to provide substantial scholarships to families in need, enabling their children to attend out -of -school time camps at little to no cost. We are committed to ensuring that no child is excluded from camp due to financial constraints. A significant strength of our program is its focus on inclusivity and serving children of all abilities, which includes a large number of children with special needs. Our camps typically operate with a staff -to -youth ratio of one staff member for every 20 youth. However, due to the high number of children with special needs, we often adjust our ratios to better meet their requirements, operating at a 1:5 or even a 1:1 ratio. While we take pride in our success In serving children from diverse backgrounds, we do incur significant staffing expenses to provide these services. CDBG funds will help cover the salaries of our highly trained staff, allowing us to maintain high -quality programming that meets the needs of all youth.
As the cost of program supplies continues to increase, CDBG funds will be used to offset the expense for STEM items, craft and art supplies and educational kits and games.
Lastly, an essential aspect of our program is providing youth with guest speakers who offer enriching experiences designed to broaden their horizons and foster a deeper understanding of the world. These include the Reptile Hunter,who delivers presentations about reptiles, and UC Riverside's Little Einsteins program, which introduces elementary school students to Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM). A portion of the grant funds will be allocated to cover the costs associated with these guest speakers.
C. What are the goals and objectives of the project, service, or activity? How will you measure and evaluate the success of the project to meet these goals and objectives (measures should be qualitative)?
The goal of the Camp Kids project is to provide enriching and educational programming for 90 Beaumont youth aged 5-12 during the summer and other school breaks.
Program objectives include: • Providing full -day summer and out -of -school time camps • Recruiting and enrolling a minimum of 90 participants in the Camp Kids program • Ensuring 90% of all youth participate in Summer Brain Gain and Healthy Habits programming • Ensuring 90% of all youth participate in guest speaker sessions Program success will be measured through: Number of youth participating, daily attendance records, percentage of youth participating in Summer Brain Gain and Healthy Habits programming, number of youth attending guest speaker presentations, staff observation, and the National Youth Outcomes Survey, an annual assessment of youth behaviors, knowledge, perception of social support, community involvement, and views on the Club.
3
D. Please identify the project milestones using an Estimated Timeline for Project Implementation:
4/1/26 - Begin marketing and recruitment for summer camp program 6/30/26 to 7/30/26: Recruit and enroll 90 at -risk youth to participate in the program 7/1/26 to 6/30/27: Offer at -risk youth summer camp, as well as camps for Thanksgiving, winter break, Presidents' Week, and spring break camps. 7/01/26 to 6/30/27: Collect and track CDBG data on all new and renewing participants 7/1/26 to 6/30/27: Implement Summer Brain Gain and Healthy Habits programming with youth participants 7/1/26 to 6/30/27: Provide a minimum of five educationally enriching guest speaker presentations through the Camp Kids program V. PROJECT BENEFIT
A. Indicate the number of people or households that will directly benefit from your proposal using CDBG funds: Note: This is based on the expected number of clients to be served if the County funds your project for the requested amount.
The Kids Camp program will serve 50 at -risk youth with CDBG funding during the grant year, covering summer and other school breaks.
B. Indicate the number of unduplicated clients that will be served (An unduplicated client is counted only once, no matter how many direct services the client receives during a funding year):
The Kids Camp program will serve a total of 50 unduplicate youth using CDBG funds. A total of 90 youth will be served through all funding methods.
4
C. Length of proposed CDBG-funded activities or service (weeks, months, year):
The project will run for one year, from 7/1/26 to 6/30/27, during out -of -school time, including summer and school holiday breaks.
D. Service will be provided to (check one or more):
n Men n Seniors

❑■ Children (Range of children's ages : 5-12 ) n Migrant Farm Workers ❑ Homeless (Number of beds at facility : ) n Families
E. What methods will be used for community involvement to assure that all who might benefit from the project are provided an opportunity to participate?
BGCSGP serves over 2,500 youth annually an will effectively market the program through a variety of channels. We have a strong presence on social media including 1,300 Facebook followers and 203 followers on Instagram.
Additionally, our Constant Contact email list includes close to 3,000 contacts. We will also use word of mouth, program flyers, brochures and our website to reach low -to -moderate (LMI) families. In addition, the Club will leverage its network of partners, including local community organizations, businesses, and the Beaumont Unified School District, (BUSD) to specifically target LMI youth. BUSD is an involved partner, supportive of the Club, and understands the tremendous impact the Camp Kids program has on Beaumont youth.
We will also reach at -risk youth through our established relationships with Beaumont schools, specificallyBrookside and Sundance Elementary Schools, where are camps are located.
We will also recruit youth through parents, the Pass Collaborative, the Youth Accountability Team, staff referrals, and open houses.
The Camp Kids program is highly regarded throughout the community and continues to have high participation numbers year after year.
F. What evidence is there of a long-term commitment to the proposal? Describe how you plan to continue the work (project) after the CDBG funds are expended?
BGCSGP is committed to serving Beaumont youth through our Camp Kids program, and we will continue to do so once CDBG funds are expended.
We have offered the program for over 10 years and we will utilize funds raised through agency events, including our Chances & Cheeses soiree, our Horses & Hattitudes fundraiser to provide additional support. We will also seek funding from individual donors and continue pursuing other grants to ensure the sustainability of this critical program for our youth. 5

IV. PROJECT NARRATIVE
A. Provide a detailed Project Description. The description should only address or discuss the specific activities, services, or project that is to be assisted with CDBG funds. If CDBG funds will assist the entire program or activity, then provide a description of the entire program or activity.
The mission of VFC is to transform the lives of abused, abandoned, or neglected children by providing them with trained, volunteer Court Appointed Special Advocates (CASAs). The CASA model emerged in Seattle in 1977, in which trained and supervised community volunteers called CASAs are matched with individual children in foster care to advocate for their best interests. The CASA model has been effectively used nationwide for nearly five decades.
The National CASA Association reports that children with CASA volunteers have significantly fewer placement changes; are more likely to find safe, permanent homes; and are half as likely to reenter the child welfare system as children without CASA volunteers. Children with CASA volunteers also receive more services, perform better in school, both academically and behaviorally, and report higher levels of hope.Ll Continue on separate attachment.
B. Provide a detailed description of the proposed use of the CDBG funds only (e.g. construction design, purchase of specific equipment, rent, supplies, utilities, salaries, etc.):
A $10,000 grant from the City of Beaumont CDBG program will enable VFC to provide five youth with life -changing CASA advocacy. Specifically, the funds will support a portion of the salaries and beneifts for two Advocacy Supervisors.
These staff members play a critical role in supporting CASA volunteers by reviewing court reports, attending meetings alongside or on behalf of CASAs, and answering complex questions that arise in each child's case.
Each Advocacy Supervisor guides and supports 40-45 CASA volunteers. Advocacy Supervisors are available to CASA volunteers 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, via emergency phone line. Through this dedicated support, VFC ensures that each child in foster care receives consistent, high -quality advocacy.
In addition, VFC is requesting support in indirect cost at a 10% de minimis rate, which will be used to fund administrative staff salaries associated with the program.
C. What are the goals and objectives of the project, service, or activity? How will you measure and evaluate the success of the project to meet these goals and objectives (measures should be qualitative)?
Continue on separate attachment.

D. Please identify the project milestones using an Estimated Timeline for Project Implementation:
VFC's CASA program takes place on an ongoing basis throughout the fiscal year. To monitor the progress of this grant and the objectives, VFC will use the following benchmarks:
Continue on separate attachment.
V. PROJECT BENEFIT
A. Indicate the number of people or households that will directly benefit from your proposal using CDBG funds: Note: This is based on the expected number of clients to be served if the County funds your project for the requested amount.
During FY 2026-27, funding from the City of Beaumont CDBG program will support CASA advocacy for five City of Beaumont children in foster care.
B. Indicate the number of unduplicated clients that will be served (An unduplicated client is counted only once, no matter how many direct services the client receives during a funding year):
During FY 2026-27, VFC will provide CASA advocacy to 750 unduplicated children in Riverside County.
Of these, approximately 20 will be City of Beaumont children, with five directly supported through this CDBG grant. 4
C. Length of proposed CDBG-funded activities or service (weeks, months, year):
The proposed CDBG-funded services will provide one year of CASA advocacy for each of the five grant -funded children. CASA volunteers undergo a rigorous screening and training process before being matched with children in foster care. VFC's 35 -hour trauma -informed training program equips volunteers with the knowledge and skills to understand and respond to the impact of trauma on a child's development and behavior. CASA volunteers commit to serving for at least one year and dedicate a minimum of 10 hours per month to their assigned cases.
Continue on separate attachment.
D. Service will be provided to (check one or more):
❑ Men n Seniors
n Women ❑ Severely Disabled Adults
❑■ Children (Range of children's ages : birth - 21 ) n Migrant Farm Workers ❑ Homeless (Number of beds at facility : ) n Families
E. What methods will be used for community involvement to assure that all who might benefit from the project are provided an opportunity to participate?
VFC is the only organization designated by the Superior Court of Riverside County to provide CASA services to Riverside County children in foster care. Referrals for CASA advocacy are received from Juvenile Court judges, social workers, and children's attorneys. Once a child is referred, VFC matches the child or sibling group with a trained CASA volunteer. VFC's program team meets regularly with Juvenile Court judges, attorneys, and the Department of Public Social Services to share information about the CASA program so they continue to refer children in need of advocacy to VFC.
F. What evidence is there of a long-term commitment to the proposal? Describe how you plan to continue the work (project) after the CDBG funds are expended?
VFC has proudly served as the designated CASA provider for Riverside County since 2015. Our program has consistently grown to meet the growing number of children in foster care in Riverside County. VFC is deeply committed to the long-term sustainability of the CASA program. We maintain a diverse revenue stream that includes foundation and corporate support (24%), government grants (53%), and individual philanthropy (18%).
We actively pursue funding through grant proposals, major gift solicitations, and direct mail campaigns to ensure continued service delivery beyond the CDBG grant period. 5

County of Riverside
Community Development Block Grant Program - City of Beaumont Narrative Attachment
Section: Project Activity
Question H: If the service is not new, will the existing service activity level be substantially increased or improved?
Continued Answer:
This grant will enable VFC to expand its efforts within Riverside County, with a specific focus on foster youth residing in the City of Beaumont. Through the Riverside County CASA program, VFC will provide these youth with dedicated, trained CASA volunteers who offer consistent, individualized advocacy.
Section: Project Narrative
Question A: Provide a detailed description - description should only address or discuss the specific activities, service, or project that is to be assisted with CDBG funds. If CDBG funds assist the entire project, then provide a description of the entire program.
Continued Answer:
Since the inception of our Riverside County CASA program in 2015, VFC has continually expanded its reach to meet the growing number of children involved in the child welfare system. During the fiscal year (FY) 2024-25, VFC provided ongoing and comprehensive CASA advocacy to 695 children in Riverside County, including 18 youth from the City of Beaumont. We consistently evaluate and refine our program to ensure youth receive the support and resources they need to heal from past trauma, overcome obstacles, and pursue brighter futures.
In 2025, 6,000 children in Riverside County will spend time in the child welfare system.
Riverside County's foster care population is increasing rapidly, as is its overall population.
Each child in foster care has experienced multiple traumatic experiences in the form of
child abuse and neglect at the hands of a caregiver or parent. Once in the system, they face additional stressors of separation from family and community, frequent school and home changes, and a lack of consistent, caring adults. Systemic challenges such as high caseloads and turnover among child welfare professionals can compound trauma and hinder individualized care.
The cumulative effects of trauma and instability in foster care can lead to long-term adverse outcomes, including mental and physical health issues, barriers to healthcare, limited educational attainment, underemployment, homelessness, and involvement with the justice system. Research shows that children in foster care are twice as likely as their peers to experience developmental delays, asthma, obesity, and vision problems (Turney and Wildeman, Pediatrics, Nov. 2016). They are five times more likely to experience anxiety, six times more likely to face behavioral challenges, and seven times more likely to suffer from depression.
These outcomes, however, can be mitigated. The Center for the Study of Social Policy emphasizes that social support and equitable access to essential services strengthen children and families affected by the child welfare system. Youth.gov further notes that permanent relationships with positive adults are a powerful protective factor against negative outcomes and provide support during the transition to adulthood. CASA volunteers serve as these positive adults, promoting resilience and improving access to mental and behavioral health services and other vital resources.
Given the proven effectiveness of the CASA model, VFC is committed to expanding our Riverside County CASA program to reach more children in foster care. This CDBG grant will fund a portion of the salaries of VFC program staff responsible for recruiting, screening, training, and supporting CASA volunteers serving youth in the City of Beaumont. With an estimated cost of $2,000 per child for one year of CASA advocacy, a $10,000 grant will enable VFC to immediately provide CASA volunteers to five youth in Beaumont.
Question C: What are the goals and objectives of the project, service, or activity? How will you measure and evaluate the success of the project to meet these goals and objectives (measures should be qualitative)?
Continued Answer:
During FY 2026-27, VFC will accomplish the following objectives:
Objective 1: Provide CASA advocacy to 750 children in foster care in Riverside County, including five City of Beaumont youth.
Activities: Each CASA volunteer will communicate monthly with their assigned Advocacy Supervisor to discuss the child's case, current needs, and strategies to address those needs. These conversations ensure that CASA volunteers maintain regular contact with caregivers, therapists, teachers, and other individuals involved in the child's life. This collaboration allows CASA volunteers to gather detailed information about the child's well- being, including therapeutic services, family connections, housing placements, school performance, and extracurricular involvement. Together, CASA volunteers and Advocacy Supervisors develop action plans to ensure each child receives necessary resources and support. Advocacy Supervisors record case notes in CASA Manager, VFC's secure case management database. These notes, along with other communications, inform the comprehensive reports that CASA volunteers submit to the Juvenile Court every six months.
Measurement: By June 30, 2027, CASA volunteers will submit detailed court reports on behalf of the five Beaumont youth served through this CDBG grant, outlining each child's status, progress, and needs.
Objective 2: Recruit, screen, and train 100 new CASA volunteers for Riverside County.
Activities: VFC will identify and engage 100 prospective CASA volunteers. Each candidate will attend an initial information session, followed by an interview, 35 hours of trauma - informed training, and two follow-up interviews. Volunteers will also complete multiple background checks, including fingerprinting. Once fully trained, they will be sworn in by the Juvenile Court and matched with a child in foster care. Training topics include dependency on law, child development, court report writing, and the impact of trauma and abuse.
Measurement: By June 30, 2027, VFC will have sworn in 100 new CASA volunteers, ready to be matched with foster youth.

Section: Project Benefit
Question C: Length of proposed CDBG-funded activities or service (weeks, months, year):
Continued Answer:
Volunteers spend time with children during one-on-one visits and maintain regular communication with caregivers, family members, therapists, teachers, and child welfare professionals. When unmet needs are identified, CASA volunteers advocate on the child's behalf in court, healthcare settings, schools, and the broader community to ensure access to necessary resources. Every six months, CASA volunteers attend court hearings and submit comprehensive written reports detailing the child's status, including educational progress, therapeutic services, and any use of psychotropic medications. These reports help judges make informed decisions about the child's well-being and future.
Section: Financial Information
Question C: What type of long-term financial commitment is there to the proposal? Describe how you plan to continue the work (project) after the CDBG funds are expended?
Continued Answer:
VFC has served Riverside County since 2015 and San Diego County since 1980. We are confident in our ability to continue delivering on our mission to transform the lives of children in foster care for years to come. VFC receives consistent and generous support from foundations, corporations, and individual donors. Our sustainability is further strengthened by 45 years of organizational experience, strong partnerships with the Riverside County court system, Department of Public Social Services (DPSS), and other community organizations, as well as our dedicated staff and volunteers.
Question E: Identify sources and indicate outcome:
Continued Answer:
For FY26-27, VFC plans to submit applications to the County of Riverside CDBG program and the CDBG programs of the cities of Banning, Corona, Hemet, Lake Elsinore, Menifee, Moreno Valley, Murrieta, Perris, Riverside, San Jacinto, Temecula. We are in the beginning phase of these applications. We have applied for CID funds from the County of Riverside Districts 1-5.
Question F: Is this activity a continuation of a previous project funded by CDBG? Continued Answer:
VFC is requesting $10,000 in CDBG funding from Beaumont to provide CASA advocacy to five additional unduplicated City of Beaumont children in foster care.
Section: Management Capacity
