City Council Meeting
Agenda Report
Agenda Item No. 6
SUBJECT: ASPHALT MAINTENANCE TRAILER 3-TON
MEETING DATE: October 21, 2024
PREPARED BY: Kyle Coney, Maintenance Superintendent
RECOMMENDATION: That the City Council approve the purchase of a 3-ton asphalt maintenance trailer from Haaker Equipment Company for $56,345.71 and adopt Resolution No. 2024-57, a Resolution of the City Council of the City of Calimesa, California amending the FY 2024-25 budget to include an adjustment in the gas tax fund for the purchase of a falcon asphalt trailer.

BACKGROUND: City staff is proposing to upgrade its equipment to enhance performance, improve efficiency, and better manage road repair demands. The new equipment will offer increased reliability, minimize downtime, and help us meet rising demands while improving safety and compliance standards. Additionally, it will allow us to maintain a competitive edge, reduce long-term maintenance costs, and ensure we are utilizing the most current and effective tools available.

Back on June 5, 2023, the City Council approved the purchase of the Concord Road equipment asphalt Maintenance Trailer. Currently, staff are facing challenges with our existing supplier, Concord Road Equipment. They have been unresponsive in providing shipping cost details for the asphalt trailer and have failed to supply necessary information or return our inquiries in a timely manner. Furthermore, they do not have a local sales representative available to provide training on proper equipment use. In comparison, the Falcon asphalt trailer staff is proposing offers superior capabilities and would better meet our operational needs.

Currently, the City of Calimesa Public Works Department services close to 43 miles of city streets.

Staff has purchased various types of cold mix from multiple manufacturers to use for asphalt patching. These manufacturers claim cold patching is a permanent fix, but staff is not seeing that result.

Larger patching projects are typically completed using hot asphalt mix, which is purchased from a supplier in Fontana, CA. To secure the material, staff must place an order for pickup at least one day in advance, and the asphalt must be used promptly before it cools. Given the current resource constraints within the Public Works Department, this process presents significant challenges.

Depending on weather conditions, staff has approximately two hours from pickup to apply the asphalt. After this time, the material begins to harden and is no longer workable unless reheated.

Currently, the City lacks the necessary equipment to maintain the asphalt at the required operating temperature, further complicating the task.

Page 27 of 56 ends

Between July 2022 and March 2023, the City spent approximately $7,500.00 on cold mix material to meet the high demand for street repairs. The cost of cold mix averages $1,263.00 per 1.5 tons, whereas hot mix is priced at approximately $65.00 per ton. In addition, staff must purchase liquid asphalt to facilitate bonding between the existing street surface and the new material. Currently, this liquid bonding agent is only available in 5-gallon buckets, as the City lacks the necessary equipment to dispense larger quantities from bulk. On average, the cost of this bonding agent is $106.00 per 5 gallons.

Acquiring the appropriate asphalt trailer will result in significant annual cost savings for the City while enhancing staff efficiency. This unit can be pre-loaded with material the night before, allowing for multiple repairs to be conducted the following morning. Additionally, when performing repairs across the city, the trailer will maintain the asphalt at the correct temperature for application throughout the day, as long as the unit remains operational. The trailer is also equipped with a 30-gallon heated tack tank, enabling staff to apply the liquid asphalt bonding agent via a spray wand, streamlining the repair process.

DISCUSSION:

Concord Road Equipment Falcon Asphalt Trailer
• 2.5 Ton Hotbox with single layer
blanket style insulation. (Hot to
touch on outside, Safety issue).
• Heating system requires diesel to
heat overnight burning through
fuel constantly. (Will cost more
money in fuel over time).
• 35 Gallon non heated tack tank
(not having tack at the correct
temp will cause shortened life of
patch).
• Does not come with hoses/
sprayer for tack application.
• For Warranty work we would have
to ship the trailer back to Ohio
which will cost us additional
shipping costs which can add up
quickly.
• They have no sales reps to give
us training on proper use &
maintenance of the trailer which
means we will not have proper
safety procedures shown to us.
• No mechanic available
• Almost 1 year and no trailer
• 3 Ton Hotbox with 3 Layer
insulation which makes outside cool
to the touch even if it’s used all day
long. (Safest choice).
• Heating system uses diesel while
on road to heat asphalt but,
overnight heating uses electric
heater to keep asphalt to adequate
temperature. (Feature allows you to
set what time to have asphalted
heated by for application.)
• Heated 30 Gallon Tack Tank (Temp
controlled to have tack at the
perfect temp for application).
• Comes with hoses, sprayer, and
reels for uniform application of tack
to increase adhesion.
• Haaker is local and will come to us
for repair work or pick up the trailer
if it needs to be fixed at a shop.
• Haaker gives free training for the
life of the trailer & will go out to our
first project to guide us through the
proper use of the trailer.
• Trailer has Lifetime warranty
• Equipment has 2-year warranty
• Repairs are always available
• Delivery in 4 to 6 weeks

Staff obtained three quotes for the equipment, with Haaker Equipment Company offering the lowest price to go along with superior service. The three quotes are attached to this staff report. Staff is recommending that the City Council approve the purchase of the 3-ton asphalt maintenance trailer from Haaker in the amount of $56,345.17. This will require an additional appropriation of $17,099 and staff recommends the funding source be from the Gas Tax Fund.

FISCAL IMPACT: The approved FY 2024-25 Public Works Department Budget and LLMD Fund have sufficient balance of $39,901 available. Fund 24 (Gas Tax) has sufficient funds for the additional $17,099 for Falcon trailer purchase if approved.

RECOMMENDATION: That the City Council receive and file the City of Calimesa Property Tax Newsletter Tax Year 2024/25.

BACKGROUND: The City of Calimesa has a professional services contract with Hinderliter, de Llamas & Associates (hereinafter referred to as HDL) to provide compiled property tax data and analysis relating to property tax revenues within the City of Calimesa. The City Manager and Finance Director meet annually with the HDL professionals to review data provided in compiled reports to discuss data analytics in relation to assessed values, property transfers, sales price history, and trends with prior years. The attached report, appropriate for public consumption, is provided to the City Council for review and includes the top 10 property owners with primary use category, total value and percentage of all value.

It should be noted the attached report does not include an annual distribution of property tax increment funds from the Riverside County RPTTF (Redevelopment Property Tax Trust Fund). The RPTTF Funds were established 2012 with the state’s mandate to dissolve redevelopment agency funds. Due to a large portion of undeveloped residential land in Calimesa at the time of dissolution, the RFTTF distributions are significant as a proportional ratio of property tax collections for the City of Calimesa. Listed below are projections of RPTTF Revenue:

City Council Meeting
Agenda Report
Agenda Item No. 9
SUBJECT: RESOLUTION IN SUPPORT OF PROPOSITION 36, THE

HOMELESSNESS, DRUG ADDICTION, AND THEFT REDUCTION
ACT
MEETING DATE: October 21, 2024
PREPARED BY: Will Kolbow, City Manager
RECOMMENDATION: That the City Council adopt Resolution 2024-59, A Resolution of the City Council of the City of Calimesa, California in Support of Proposition 36, the Homelessness, Drug Addiction, and Theft Reduction Act.

BACKGROUND: After the passage of Proposition 47 in 2014, the use of drug courts was severely diminished since repeat drug offenders had little incentive to complete treatment. This is due to the change in law that whether you were arrested 50 times or three times for drug possession, the charge could at most be a simple misdemeanor. Misdemeanors are nearly always just citations and result in very little, if any, jail time, which created a disincentive to participate in drug treatment that could last for up to 12 or more months. Addressing drug addiction is critical for helping the individual and improving public safety. An in-depth data analysis of crime statistics sampling from four counties showed that the rate of chronic drug offenders who committed three or more drug offenses more than doubled after Prop 47 passed and that approximately 60% of drug offenders also committed theft offenses.

DISCUSSION: Proposition 36 focuses on two primary areas of focused reform to Proposition 47.

First is in the area of Organized and Serial Retail Theft. Rampant retail theft is harming businesses and residents in California because those who commit these crimes know they’ll get away with it, even if they are caught. Prop 36 will hold repeat offenders accountable for the safety of our communities, rather than putting them back on the streets. Prop 36 will make the following changes:
• Classifies repeated theft as a felony for individuals who steal less than $950 if they have two or more prior theft-related convictions.
• Allows stolen property values from multiple thefts to be combined so repeat offenders can be charged with a felony if the total exceeds $950, countering tactics by career criminals to avoid harsher penalties.
• Authorizes judges to impose an enhanced penalty when an offender steals, damages, or destroys property by participating in organized theft with two or more offenders or by causing losses of $50,000 or more.

Page 41 of 56 ends

Second, Prop 36 provides reform to empower judges in sentencing to hold traffickers accountable and encourage drug treatment. The fentanyl crisis has reached alarming levels and is now responsible for 20 percent of youth deaths in California. Specifically Prop 36 will do the following:
• Enables stricter penalties for dealers whose trafficking causes death or serious injury and warns traffickers of potential murder charges if continued drug trafficking results in fatalities. • Restores drug courts and ensures there is accountability to complete treatment. • Defines fentanyl as a hard drug, holds individuals convicted of trafficking fentanyl accountable, and grants judges’ greater discretion in sentencing drug traffickers. • Creates a “treatment-mandated felony” if a person possesses a hard drug (meth, fentanyl, heroin, cocaine or PCP) and has two prior convictions for drug-related offenses. • People with two or more prior convictions for drug-related offenses have the option of utilizing a drug court and participating in and completing drug and mental health treatment instead of county jail. A drug addiction expert will conduct a substance abuse and mental health evaluation before treatment begins. Those who successfully complete drug and mental health treatment can have the charge fully expunged.
• A treatment program may also include job training and other conditions that a judge finds appropriate for a successful outcome. Research from the Office of National Drug Control Policy under the Obama Administration showed every $1 spent on drug courts yields $2 in savings in the criminal justice system, and 84% of drug court graduates were not re‐arrested and charged with a serious crime in the first year after graduation. A UC San Francisco study completed before Prop 47 showed drug court participants who graduated their programs had reduced re-arrest rates of up to 54%.

Staff recommends adoption of the Resolution supporting Proposition 36 on the November 5, 2024 ballot.

FISCAL IMPACT: None.

RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF CALIMESA, CALIFORNIA IN SUPPORT OF PROPOSITION 36, THE HOMELESSNESS,

DRUG ADDICTION, AND THEFT REDUCTION ACT
WHEREAS, while Proposition 47 achieved notable success in making California’s criminal justice system more equitable, Prop 47 has also led to unintended consequences over the past decade; and
WHEREAS, Prop 47 has contributed to increases in repeat and often organized retail theft, the shuttering of local businesses, and difficulty convincing people to seek drug and mental health treatment; and
WHEREAS, these unintended consequences can only be corrected by the voters at the ballot box with modest amendments to Prop 47; and WHEREAS, Proposition 36, the Homelessness, Drug Addiction, and Theft Reduction Act is a bi-partisan measure that provides common sense, targeted reforms to Prop 47 that, with the recently adopted legislative Retail Theft Package, provide more tools to increase safety in our communities; and
WHEREAS, spikes in retail theft, violent smash-and-grab robberies, fentanyl deaths and illicit drug use, as well as strained social services, are creating challenges beyond the capacity of local governments; and
WHEREAS, cities are partnering with the state to advance solutions that help reduce crime and provide more support to residents struggling with substance abuse, while avoiding a return to the days of mass incarceration; and WHEREAS, Prop 36, the Homelessness, Drug Addiction, and Theft Reduction Act will define fentanyl as a hard drug, hold individuals convicted of trafficking fentanyl accountable, and grant judges greater discretion in sentencing drug traffickers; and WHEREAS, breaking the cycle of repeat offenders means addressing the many root causes of retail theft; and
WHEREAS, Prop 36, the Homelessness, Drug Addiction, and Theft Reduction Act allows critical behavioral health services, drug treatment, and job training within our justice system for people who are homeless and suffering from mental illness or struggling with substance abuse; and
WHEREAS, it is time for meaningful and tailored reforms to our justice system to ensure the safety of our communities.

City Council Meeting
Agenda Report
Agenda Item No. 10
SUBJECT: FAIR SHARE AGREEMENT AND MEMORANDUM OF

UNDERSTANDING WITH THE CITY OF YUCAIPA
MEETING DATE: October 21, 2024
PREPARED BY: Will Kolbow, City Manager
RECOMMENDATION: That the City Council:

1. Approve the Fair Share Agreement and Memorandum of Understanding for the County Line Road/Interstate 10 Freeway Interchange Interim Traffic Signal Project between the City of Calimesa and the City of Yucaipa.

2. Authorize the Mayor to execute the Agreement on behalf of the City of Calimesa.

BACKGROUND: In October 2020, the City of Calimesa approved the RV Fueling Project (DPR 19- 04/CUP19-05/CUP 19-06) at 7th Place and County Line Road. The RV Fueling Project involves two phases. The first phase is complete and operational, with a convenience store and RV fuel canopy, and the second phase is a one drive-through retail pad that is to be developed and constructed in the future. Condition of Approval 7.04 for the RV Fueling Project required the design and construction of interim traffic signals at the eastbound and westbound on/off ramps of Interstate 10 and County Line Road prior to the second phase of the RV Fueling Project, with the possibility of fair share reimbursements from other projects that have an impact on the interchange.

In July 2022, the Yucaipa Planning Commission approved a Conditional Use Permit for an approximately 363,000 square foot warehouse (Case No. 21-138 CUP/ARC). A warehouse is an allowed use under Yucaipa’s Freeway Corridor Specific Plan approved in 2008. The Warehouse Project Conditional of Approval No. 122 requires the Warehouse Project to construct interim signals at the eastbound and westbound on/off ramps of Interstate 10 and County Line Road, prior to the issuance of a certificate of occupancy, since the Warehouse Project will use the County Line Road interchange to access Interstate 10.

Since the Warehouse Project will be completed and ready for occupancy before Phase 2 of the RV Fueling Project, the warehouse developer will construct the interim signal. The Warehouse Project Condition of Approval No. 122 also provides that the RV Fueling Project will contribute up to 25% of the cost of the signal, with Phase 1 paying 13% of the cost and Phase 2, if it is constructed, contributing 12% of the cost. Calimesa has the 13% cost share held in deposit, based on an estimated total cost of $1,200,000.

Page 48 of 56 ends

DISCUSSION: Since projects from each city will be contributing to the traffic signals, the cities have been negotiating a Fair Share Agreement and Memorandum of Understanding outlining the expectations of each city and their respective projects. This Agreement not only outlines the expectations for the approved project, but also the expected conditions for future projects that will impact the interchange.

An important aspect of the Agreement is that the Calimesa shall not be obligated to contribute any funds to the costs incurred in connection with the interim signals. Both cities agree that they shall inform the other of any development applications that will impact the I-10/County Line Road interchange, and that said development will be required to contribute a fair share of costs toward the Interim Signal Project as a condition of approval. Neither city can issue a certificate of occupancy to any impacting project until the interim signals are complete and operational.

The Interim Signal Project plans have been submitted to Caltrans for review and approval by the Warehouse Project developer and approval is currently pending. Initially, the developer submitted plans for temporary signals that hang from wires. However, Caltrans does not allow these types of signals beyond a 12-month period. The City of Calimesa also did not agree with the usage of such signals. Since there will be additional time needed to design and order a traditional signal configuration, which includes steel mast arms and underground electrical conduit, and the developer was not aware of the Caltrans requirements previously, Caltrans agreed that temporary signals can be utilized once plans for the permanent signals are approved. Additionally, the developer is required to post performance bonds for the permanent signals to ensure they are constructed in a timely manner.

The traffic signals are an interim solution, similar to the Cherry Valley Blvd. interchange, as we intend to improve the interchange to an ultimate configuration. A future agreement between the cities of Calimesa and Yucaipa will address how the costs for the ultimate improvements will be shared among the cities and future developments.

Staff is recommending that the City Council approve the Fair Share Agreement and Memorandum of Understanding between the cities of Calimesa and Yucaipa. If the City Council approves this Agreement, Yucaipa will follow suit in short order.

FISCAL IMPACT: None.

EXHIBIT A
RV Fueling Project Condition of Approval 7.04 (PC Resolution 2020-02) (Calimesa):

MM TIA-1: The proposed project shall implement the following intersection improvements prior to issuance of certificate of occupancy for Phase 2 development:
• I‐10 Southbound Ramps (NS) at County Line Road (EW) – #6 - Install a traffic signal • I‐10 Northbound Ramps (NS) at County Line Avenue (EW) – #7 - Install a traffic signal The City of Calimesa and California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) plan to install roundabouts at both of these ramp intersection locations. The anticipated installation of these roundabouts is Year 2023. Roundabouts at this freeway interchange were analyzed for all future traffic scenarios. Traffic signal installation would be a temporary measure until the roundabouts are constructed, with feasibility and necessity to be determined by the City of Calimesa and Caltrans.

Traffic signal installation as an interim mitigation measure would be required to mitigate project impacts. The project may be eligible for a reimbursement agreement for construction of these improvements. The reimbursement agreement shall take in account the project’s fair share contribution and payment of other fees for the impacted intersections.

EXHIBIT B
Warehouse Project (Case No. 21-138 CUP/ARC) Condition of Approval No. 122 (Yucaipa):

If the ultimate I-10 interchange improvement project has not been completed, Project shall be responsible for the design, permitting, and installation of interim traffic signals at the intersections of I-10 SB Ramps/County Line Road and I-10 NB Ramps/County Line Road (Interim Signal Project) in collaboration with the 7th Street & County Line Road RV Fueling & Retail Project (RV Fueling Project) in the City of Calimesa. If the RV Fueling Project installs the Interim Signal Project, the Project will provide a maximum “up-front” fair share contribution of 75% to the Interim Signal Project. If the Project installs the Interim Signal Project, the RV Fueling Project will pay a maximum of 25% of the “up-front” cost of the Interim Signal Project, which is estimated to be $1,200,000 based on the RV Fueling Project traffic impact analysis. However, the ultimate fair share amounts will be based on both cities requiring a fair share reimbursement to the development project (Project or RV Fueling Project) constructing the Interim Signal Project from those other development projects using the County Line/I-10 Interchange as their primary or secondary access to the I-10 Freeway prior to the completion of the ultimate interchange improvements. The fair share reimbursement for those other development projects will be incorporated in a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) between the City of Calimesa and the City of Yucaipa and will require the fair share reimbursement be paid prior to the issuance of a building permit. The City of Calimesa and the City of Yucaipa will prepare the MOU that provides the schedule, cost of the Interim Signal Project, and fair share contribution of each development project to the Interim Signal Project or another Caltrans approved intersection improvement that provides equivalent enhancement to the intersections’ levels of service. The Interim Signal Project plans must be completed and submitted to Caltrans prior to issuance of building permits. The Interim Signal Project must be operational prior to certificate of occupancy. To ensure efficient access from the Project and the RV Fueling Project to the I-10 Interchange, should a multi-way stop, traffic signal or other circulation improvements be necessary and warranted at the County Line Road and County Line Lane intersection to support any substantive changes in traffic volumes, based on a traffic analysis reviewed and approved by the City of Yucaipa, the Transwestern project would be responsible for 100% of the cost of such improvements.
