TITLE: DATE MODIFICATION FOR THE THIRD AMENDMENT TO OPERATING COVENANT
AND RESTRICTIVE COVENANTS AFFECTING INTERESTS IN REAL PROPERTY - CREATIVE BUS SALES, INC.
PAGE: 2
BACKGROUND
On September 5, 2023, the Chino City Council approved Amendment No. 3 extending a sales tax sharing agreement between the City of Chino and Creative Bus, Inc.
The amendment allowed for a possible ten year extension of the agreement with a base amount of $75,000 to be paid first to the City of Chino. The agreement also called for a sales tax sharing of 40% for years 1 and 2; 35% for years 3 and 4; and 30% for years 5 through 10.
The new term will begin upon execution of the agreement and was intended to be completed on September 30, 2028 with options to extend, to September 30, 2032.
All other provisions of the original Agreement and first and second amendments remained unchanged.
ISSUES/ANALYSIS
The approval of Amendment No. 3 on September 5, 2023, included incorrect commencement and termination dates. Approval of this item corrects these errors establishing a termination date for the original 20 year period as September 30, 2022. The correct commencement date for Amendment No. 3 is set at October 1, 2022. The termination date for Amendment No. 3 is set at September 30, 2028 with a potential final ten year termination date of September 30, 2032.

TITLE: CONTRACT AMENDMENT AND VENDOR CAP INCREASE - RTS 85, INC.
PAGE: 2
BACKGROUND
The Community Services, Parks and Recreation (CSPR) Department is hosting the annual Chino Youth Christmas Parade and Fair on December 9, 2023. This event kicks off with a Parade, which incorporates Chino youth groups and community partners traveling down Riverside Drive and Central Avenue. The Parade route ends at the Civic Center where the community can enjoy the Christmas Fair. The Fair consists of food, information and craft vendors, Chino youth entertainment, Santa's Village at the Chino Youth Museum, and carnival rides.
ISSUES/ANALYSIS
Every year, CSPR staff receives quotes for carnival ride services. The scope of work included the operation of at least six carnival rides, generator, staffing, ADA wire covers, and fencing.
Staff received quotes from the following businesses:
There were no additional responses received. Although Carnival Services was the lowest bidder, they were used at the Halloween Spooktacular in 2021, where there were multiple issues with the appearance and operation of the rides, and the ride capacity is minimal for the magnitude of the event attendees. James Event Productions, Inc. also came in as a lower bid, but they do not have enough ADA wire covers for the designated carnival area, requiring the City to rent additional ADA wire covers from a different company. Also, they require a deposit of $13,070.50 with a cancelation policy of 30 days prior to the event for a full refund or December 6, 2023, for the rescheduling of the event within a 12-month window from the date of cancelation. In the case of rain, the Fair portion of the event is canceled, which is determined the morning of the event. Carnival rides cannot operate in the rain. RTS 85 Inc. met the scope of work for the event capacity, can provide ADA covers, and understands the City’s event cancelation process.
RTS 85 Inc. was utilized for the City’s Halloween Spo oktacular event on October 31, 2023, as they were the lowest responsible bidder for carnival services. Once again, RTS 85 Inc. was the most responsive and responsible bidder, and is a preferred Chino business for the Chino Youth Christmas Parade and Fair . If approved, RTS 85 I nc.’s agreement will be amended to include the Chino Youth Christmas Parade and Fair. The current contract amount awarded to RTS 85 Inc. totals $31,500. The requested increase of $27,000 will bring the total contract amount to $58,500. City Council authorization is required as the combined total of purchase orders will exceed $50,000 authorized to one vendor.

TITLE: AWARD OF CONTRACT - POLICE DEPARTMENT GUN RANGE CLEANING SERVICES.
PAGE: 2
BACKGROUND
The Fiscal Year 2023 -24 Building Management Budget provides funding for the Police Department gun range cleaning services. The scope of work includes bi -annual cleaning services for the Police Department’s gun range, including the range master office, armory room, corridor, weapon cleaning room, classroom, shooting station, and restrooms. All work to be performed includes wet wipe surface cleaning, vacuuming with a HEPA vacuum, and lead dust removal and disposal.
Additional work includes annual cleaning of the gun range exhaust system and mezzanine, including disposal of the pre-filters and HEPA filters, the short-range bullet trap, and a one -time cleaning service for the long-range bullet trap, which includes removal and disposal of the bullet fragments and lead dust. All aspects of the work to be performed will meet the current federal and state regulations for occupational exposure to lead and lead bearing compounds.
ISSUES/ANALYSIS
Staff elected to piggyback from a competitive Request for Proposal that was conducted by the City of Santa Ana on March 1, 2022, who selected HCI Environmental & Engineering Service as their provider for range cleaning services. Both the City of Santa Ana and HCI Environmental & Engineering Service are agreeable to HCI Environmental & Engineering Service extending the same pricing and terms to the City of Chino as a piggyback agreement. Staff completed an analysis of the City of Santa Ana/HCI Environmental & Engineering Service agreement and found it to be fair and reasonable. HCI Environmental & Engineering Service currently provides range cleaning services to the City of Anaheim and the City of Ontario.
Staff recommends that City Council award a contract to HCI Environmental & Engineering Service, Corona, CA for the Police Department Gun Range Cleaning Services for the current fiscal year in the amount of $63,930 with two additional one-year options, subject to City Council approval.

7.1 California Law.
This Agreement shall be interpreted, construed and governed both as to validity and to performance of the parties in accordance with the laws of the State of California. Legal actions concerning any dispute, claim or matter arising out of or in relation to this Agreement shall be instituted in the Superior Court of the County of San Bernardino, State of California, or any other appropriate court in such county, and Consultant covenants and agrees to submit to the personal jurisdiction of such court in the event of such action.

7.2 Disputes; Default.
In the event that Consultant is in default under the terms of this Agreement, the City sh all not have any obligation or duty to continue compensating Consultant for any work performed after the date of default. Instead, the City may give notice to Consultant of the default and the reasons for the default. The notice shall include the timeframe in which Consultant may cure the default. This timeframe is presumptively thirty (30) days, but may be extended, though not reduced, if circumstances warrant. During the period of time that Consultant is in default, the City shall hold all invoices and sh all, when the default is cured, proceed with payment on the invoices. In the alternative, the City may, in its sole discretion, elect to pay some or all of the outstanding invoices during the period of default. If Consultant does not cure the default, the City may take necessary steps to terminate this Agreement under this Article. Any failure on the part of the City to give notice of the Consultant’s default shall not be deemed to result in a waiver of the City’s legal rights or any rights arising out of any provision of this Agreement. 71 01225.0001/458446.1 17
7.3 Retention of Funds.
Consultant hereby authorizes City to deduct from any amount payable to Consultant (whether or not arising out of this Agreement) (i) any amounts the payment of which may be in dispute hereunder or which a re necessary to compensate City for any losses, costs, liabilities, or damages suffered by City, and (ii) all amounts for which City may be liable to third parties, by reason of Consultant’s acts or omissions in performing or failing to perform Consultant’s obligation under this Agreement. In the event that any claim is made by a third party, the amount or validity of which is disputed by Consultant, or any indebtedness shall exist which shall appear to be the basis for a claim of lien, City may withhold fr om any payment due, without liability for interest because of such withholding, an amount sufficient to cover such claim. The failure of City to exercise such right to deduct or to withhold shall not, however, affect the obligations of the Consultant to insure, indemnify, and protect City as elsewhere provided herein.
7.4 Waiver.
Waiver by any party to this Agreement of any term, condition, or covenant of this Agreement shall not constitute a waiver of any other term, condition, or covenant. Waiver by any party of any breach of the provisions of this Agreement shall not constitute a waiver of any other provision or a waiver of any subsequent breach or violation of any provision of this Agreement.
Acceptance by City of any work or services by Consultant shall not constitute a waiver of any of the provisions of this Agreement. No delay or omission in the exercise of any right or remedy by a non -defaulting party on any default shall impair such right or remedy or be construed as a waiver. Any waiver by either party of any default must be in writing and shall not be a waiver of any other default concerning the same or any other provision of this Agreement.
7.5 Rights and Remedies are Cumulative.
Except with respect to rights and remedies expressly declared to be exclusiv e in this Agreement, the rights and remedies of the parties are cumulative and the exercise by either party of one or more of such rights or remedies shall not preclude the exercise by it, at the same or different times, of any other rights or remedies for the same default or any other default by the other party.

Notwithstanding any contrary provision herein, Consultant shall file a statutory claim pu rsuant to Government Code Sections 905 et seq. and 910 et seq., in order to pursue a legal action under this Agreement.
7.7 Liquidated Damages.

this Agreement, the Contractor and its sureties shall be liable for and shall pay to the City the sum of Zero Dollars ($0.00) as liquidated damages for each working d ay of delay in the performance of any service required hereunder.

In the event of termination without cause pursuant to this Section, the terminating party need not provide the non -terminating party with the opportunity to cure pursuant to Section 7.2.
7.9 Termination for Default of Consultant.
If termination is due to the failure of the Consultant to fulfill its obligations under this Agreement, City may, after compliance with the provisions of Section 7.2, take over the work and prosecute the same to completion by contract or otherwise, and the Consultant shall be liable to the extent that the total cost for completion of the services required hereunder exceeds the compensation herein stipulated (provided that the City shall use reasonable efforts to mitigate such damages), and City may withhold any payments to the Consultant for the purpose of set-off or partial payment of the amounts owed the City as previously stated.
7.10 Attorneys’ Fees.
If either party to this Agreement is required to initiate or defend or made a party to any action or proceeding in any way connected with this Agreement, the prevailing party in such action or proceeding, in add ition to any other relief which may be granted, whether legal or equitable, shall be entitled to reasonable attorney ’s fees.

PAGE: 3
BACKGROUND
The NeoGov software suite is a web -based product tailored to the public sector; it automates the City’s hiring process from requisition to hire. The Human Resources/Risk Management Department renews a license subscription with GovernmenJobs.com, dba NeoGov, each year .
The subscription allows NoeGov to continue to host the City’s online recruiting and applicant tracking system and provides the City with the necessary support to the City’s recruitment processes. The City currently subscribes to NeoGov software for recruiting , which includes advertising open recruitments, tracking and screening all applications received for minimum qualifications, messaging potential applicants, online pre-interviews of potential candidates, and onboarding new employees. The City has most recently added a compatible module that will further automate the employee job performance evaluation process.
ISSUES/ANALYSIS
Attraction and retention of employees is an ongoing challenge for the City as agencies compete for top-quality candidates. Employers can easily spend thousands of dollars training new ly hired employees, particularly in specialized job classifications. The City of Chino prides itself on the longevity of its workforce and recognizes and rewards employees with ten or more years of service.
When employees feel that their contribution to the organization is acknowledged and valued, they are more likely to want to remain with the same employer . The practice in which the City recognizes employees on a consistent basis, is through the employee job performance evaluation process.
Currently, employee job performance evaluations are tracked and completed by han d. The process is tedious and time -consuming. Last year, staff attended a conference where the NeoGov Employee Performance Evaluation module was demonstrated . As the City already contracted with NeoGov for recruitment and onboarding and remained pleased with its ability to meet our needs, it was a logical move to add the module for employee performance evaluations to our current subscription. The cost, however, now exceeds the City Manager’s authorization for this vendor. Therefore, staff is requesting authorization to pay for this module.
When time is limited and competing priorities are vying for all available working time, the task of preparing job performance evaluations is often delayed. However, the process of providing feedback to employees on a regular and consistent basis is exceptionally important. This module will provide all supervisors with effective technology, allowing the vital task of evaluating employee performance to become more timely, allowing for a quicker workflow from rater to rater, and providing a far more automated process. The addition of this module will also assist in achieving the strategic goals of contributing to a positive City image, providing superior customer service, allowing for long -range planning , and creating public service excellence through internal and external partnerships.
Therefore, staff is requesting that the City Council approve a vendor cap increase for GovernmentJobs.com, dba NeoGov , for a total vendor cap in the amount of $59,000 . City Council authorization is required as the vendor cap will exceed $50,000.

TITLE: MEASURE I 5 -YEAR CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PLAN AND EXPENDITURE
STRATEGY
PAGE: 2
BACKGROUND
In November 1989 , County voters approved Measure I, supporting a half -cent sales tax in the incorporated and unincorporated areas of the County for the 20 -year period between April 1, 1990, and March 31, 2010. Early in the second decade of Measure I, it became apparent tha t continuation of the half -cent sales tax would be critical to maintaining funding for transportation projects in San Bernardino County. Ultimately , the voters of San Bernardino County approved the San Bernardino County Transportation Authority Ordinance 0 4-01 on November 4, 2004, extending the half-cent sales tax for 30 years to March 31, 2040.
ISSUES/ANALYSIS
The Measure I Strategic Plan requires governing bodies receiving Measure I revenue from the Local Street Program to adopt a Five -Year Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) annually. This plan is intended to effectively outline the specific projects upon which Measure I local pass -through funds will be expended. Moreover, the Measure I Five -Year Capital Improvement Program includes a five-year period from Fiscal Year 2023-2024 through Fiscal Year 2027-2028.
The City is obligated to annually adopt by resolution a Five -Year CIP plan and expenditure strategy. Specifically, the CIP acknowledges that the City will maintain the general fund expenditures within the said fiscal year at the required Maintenance of Effort (MOE) base year level for construction and maintenance projects related to transportation. Ther efore, the City of Chino must spend at least $3,206,701 from its General Fund until the year 2040 to receive its share of the Measure I funds.
In addition, agencies shall also adopt an Expenditure Strategy statement detailing the City’s approach to spending the funds and must be included with the Five -Year Capital Improvement Plan.
The projects included in the Measure I Local Street Pass -Through Funds Five -Year Capital Improvement Plan do not reflect the City’s entire Capital Improvement Program. Rather the plan consists of projects that receive partial or full funding from Measure I Local Pass -Through funds and adhere to the Expenditure Strategy statement.

AND EXPENDITURE STRATEGY FOR FISCAL YEAR 2023-2024
THROUGH FISCAL YEAR 2027-2028.
WHEREAS, San Bernardino County voters approved passage of Measure I in November 2004, authorizing San Bernardino C ounty Transportation Authority, to impose a one -half of one percent retail transactions and use tax applicable in the incorporated and unincorporated territory of the County of San Bernardino; and
WHEREAS, revenue from the tax can be used only for transportation improvement and traffic management programs authorized in the Expenditure Plans set forth in Ordinance 04-01 of the Authority; and
WHEREAS, the Strategic Plan requires that each local jurisdiction applying for revenue from the Local Street Program to annually adopt and update a Five -Year Capital Improvement Plan; and
WHEREAS, California Public Utilities Code 190300 and Ordinance No. 04-01 require each local jurisdiction to maintain General Fund expenditures for transportation -related construction and maintenance activities at the required Maintenance of Effort base year level in each fiscal year of the adopted Five -Year Capital Improvement Plan, which for the City of Chino is $3,206,701; and
WHEREAS, Expenditure plans of the Ordinance require each local jurisdiction receiving revenue from the Local Streets Program to expend those funds pursuant to a Five -Year Capital Improvement Plan adopted annually by resolution of the local jurisdiction; and
WHEREAS, SBCTA also requires that each local jurisdiction prepare an Expenditure Strategy.
NOW, THEREFORE, THE CHINO CITY COUNCIL, HEREBY RESOLVES AS FOLLOWS:

BACKGROUND
The State Budget Act of 2010 has provided funds from the Local Safety and Protection Account (LSPA) in the State Transportation Fund to be available for the purposes of the Citizens' Option for Public Safety (COPS) Grant. The COPS Grant funds are collected in accordance with the proportionate share of the State's total population that resides in each county and city. Each city is guaranteed a minimum of $100,000 by Government Code Section 30061 and any additional amounts are contingent on vehicle license fee collections. The City of Chino was allocated the original amount of $142,090 for 2023.
The City of Chino has received an additional allocation of $122,502.02 above the original allocation due to additional LSPA and vehicle license fees collected.

Since 2001, the City Council has approved the continued funding of this grant program.

State of California Office of Traffic SafetyGRANT AGREEMENT Schedule A GRANT NUMBERMC24003 1. PROBLEM STATEMENT The City of Chino is approximately 30 square miles with 261 miles of roadway in the city. We are in the middle of major freeway and highways used for commuting traffic. State Route (SR) 60 runs through the north end of our city and SR 71 borders on the west side of the city. SR 83/Euclid Ave. is a major street that connects Chino with Chino Hills to the south and Ontario and Upland to the north. It also provides direct access to SR 71, SR 60, I-10 and mountain communities. Just to the east of Chino is Eastvale that is bordered by I-15. Chino is a mix of residential and industrial properties with heavily used arterial streets gaining access to the above-mentioned highways. There is a residential population of 92,000 people and an estimated 7,000 people entering the city daily for work. Eastvale and the south end of Ontario, referred to as Ontario Ranch, are developing master planned communities that bring thousands of commuters through Chino on a daily basis. One such roadway, which is used as an arterial route to Euclid Ave. and SR 71, was surveyed in April 2021, when Covid-19 was limiting some commuters. This roadway saw 45,000 commuters on a single day. One of our motorcycle fatalities occurred on this roadway during the commuting hours. Chino has seen an increase in motorcycle traffic in the last two years. It is uncertain if it is because of the fuel prices, traffic congestion or for lower vehicle payments. We have found, with the crash investigations we have conducted, many of the riders we encounter are not properly trained or endorsed for motorcycle riding. Many of the crashes involve riders who recently purchased their motorcycles, or even borrowed a From 2016-2020, there were only four fatal crashes that involved a motorcyclist. That amounted to one in seven. In calendar year 2021 and 2022 the city had a total of eight fatal crashes and five of them were motorcyclists. Three of the five crashes involved a motorcyclist hitting a parked vehicle or fixed object and one additional crash where the rider panicked and laid the bike down to avoid a crash before impacting a very slow-moving vehicle. There were several other motorcycle crashes where the rider suffered severe injuries, but the mechanism of injury or advanced medical care prevented fatalities. Many of these crashes were from inexperienced riders that did not use good judgement or were unable to effectively avoid an avoidable crash. Based on real world statistics in the city of Chino, it is evident that the citizens would benefit from the instruction that can be provided by trained officers. A curriculum that can offer experiences and statistics, coupled with practical riding training to improve not only the abilities of the rider, but their mindset as well. 2. PERFORMANCE MEASURES A. Goals: 1. Reduce the number of persons killed in traffic crashes. 2. Reduce the number of persons injured in traffic crashes. 3. Reduce the number of motorcyclists injured in traffic crashes. 4. Reduce the number of motorcyclists killed in traffic crashes. B. Objectives: Target Number 1. Issue a press release announcing the kick-off of the grant by November 15. The kick-off press releases and media advisories, alerts, and materials must be emailed to the OTS Public Information Officer at [email protected], and copied to your OTS Coordinator, for approval 14 days prior to the issuance date of the release. 1 2. Conduct free to the public motorcycle safety and training courses throughout the grant year. 4 3. Participate in Motorcycle Safety Month in May. 1 4. Participate in traffic safety fairs and/or community events with effort to reach individuals. 2 5. Send law enforcement officers to advanced motorcycle training. 2 6.

State of California Office of Traffic SafetyGRANT AGREEMENT Schedule A GRANT NUMBERPT24042 1. PROBLEM STATEMENT Chino is a city comprised of residential, commercial, industrial, and rural areas that are dissected or bordered by four heavily used state highways; SR 91 to the south, SR 71 on the west side, SR 60 on the north side, and SR 83 on the east. We have over 261 miles of roadway in our city, some of which are used as major thoroughfares from neighboring cities to the state highways during commuting hours. The City of Chino was a dairy and agricultural preserve for decades and was one of the largest dairy regions in the country. This diary preserve was lifted approximately 13 years ago, which created the opportunity for many square miles of rural lands to become available for development. The growth in our city has been continuing ever since. Single-family homes, multi-unit housing, commercial centers, industrial warehousing, and a community college have since been developed where the old dairies previously existed. The city of Chino continues to grow as available land is yet to be developed. Since 2013, housing units and warehouses or distribution centers have been continuously built and occupied in Chino. There is an estimated population of 96,000 residents in the city, with a daily transient population increase of 6800 people coming into the city. With this increase in buildings and dwellings comes a significant increase in the residential population and daily commuters that travel through the city. Two of our neighboring cities, Ontario and Eastvale, were former dairy preserve areas as well. The southwest corner of Ontario, which borders the east side of our city, is building a master-planned community that will eventually bring 47,000 homes along with many commercial and retail properties. The population within the coming years is expected to exceed 160,000 residents. We are already experiencing an increase in traffic through our city as commuters from neighboring cities make their way through Chino to the nearby highways. Eastvale continues to grow at nearly the same rate as Chino. Like the Ontario commuters, Eastvale residents also use our roadways during their commute to avoid traffic congestion on the freeway. This growth has demanded the re-engineering of roadways, and there is more development planned in the future. Many of these improvements have been finished, but with the steady growth comes continuing change. The Traffic Services Unit of the Chino Police Department is dedicated to maintaining a safe environment for drivers, bicyclists, and pedestrians as we deal with roadway congestion and increased traffic. Unfortunately, the steady growth of Chino has increased at a faster rate than the staffing of new officers. Officers are responsible for a constantly increasing amount of residents, more daily traffic, and more crashes. These challenges have spread our police resources thin and have increased the need for additional enforcement. Thankfully, the increase in residents and the increase in daily population has not brought a higher fatal crash count to the city. The last two years have resulted in four and five fatal crashes, respectively as compared to an average of 5.6 in the previous five years. This is no doubt due to the continued support of grant-funded operations. The City of Chino and its Police Department are motivated to reduce the number of crashes in our city, especially injury and fatal crashes, with a yearly goal of zero fatal crashes per year. The city continues to experience a variety of traffic problems and a variety of primary crash factors. Unsafe speed continues to be the overwhelming cause of the majority of our injury crashes. The Police Department continuously receives a large number of citizen complaints about speeding vehicles throughout the city. We regularly deploy traffic data collectors (stealth devices that capture speed, volume, and times of traffic) in response to citizen complaints. We are identifying an ever-increasing amount of speed violations on residential and collector streets that have not seen crash to the degree of other locations. Using the data collected, we can efficiently deploy officers and other resources to the area for awareness and enforcement. To supplement our officers, we have deployed portable message devices (speed display boards), which in most cases, have positively impacted driving habits and reduced speeds. These devices are most effective when left at a location for at least one month or more. These portable message devices help calm speeds while also collecting traffic data. Right-of-way violations and unsafe turning movements are also top causes of injury crashes. We intend to maintain our enforcement efforts in the areas that experience a high frequency of injury crashes by deploying Officers to the areas that statistically experience these crashes. 131

The number of persons killed in crash in 2022 decreased by 16.7% from 6 to 5. The number of persons injured in crash decreased by 5.2% from 365 to 346. The number of persons injured in DUI-related crash increased by 39.3% from 28 to 39. We intend to focus our enforcement efforts in areas where Driving under the influence of alcohol and or drugs were contributing factor.Of the five fatal crash that occurred last year, three of them were related to speeds that were well over the speed limit (30+ mph over). Three of them involved at-fault drivers who were well over the legal limit of alcohol and three involved motorcycles. The Chino Police Department has made it a priority to enforce and prosecute all impaired drivers and continues to ensure our officers are properly trained in DUI enforcement. We have prioritized the 40-hour DUI workshop as a core course. This is a week-long course by Cavanaugh and Associates, where officers learn Standardized Field Sobriety Tests (SFSTs), DUI report writing, and courtroom testimony. This course has included subject matter for Advanced Roadside Impaired Driver Enforcement (ARIDE) and has been approved by POST as an SFST/ARIDE course. This dedication to DUI training has led to the strict and successful prosecution of offenders. Prior grant funding has afforded us the time and staffing to conduct DUI/DL checkpoints. The checkpoints are a great tool we use to enforce DUI-related laws and to educate drivers on the dangers of DUI driving. The Chino Police Department will continue to work towards minimizing DUI crashes in our city and will remain dedicated to the detection and enforcement of DUI drivers. DUI checkpoints have been an excellent public education campaign and tool to identify DUI drivers before a crash occurs. Our community provides overwhelmingly positive feedback to our social media posts announcing the checkpoints and their results. We have successfully filled many vacant Police Officer positions in the last year, allowing us to better staff our checkpoints. In several instances, we have identified the possibility of conducting checkpoints in both directions of a roadway for greater community impact. Our community continues to experience DUI crash that occur on less-traveled roadways and neighborhood streets. Often, the offenders are headed home and involved in crashes while near their residences. We believe that these offenders purposely avoid main thoroughfares and would likely not be identified by a DUI checkpoint, which is why DUI saturation patrols are so beneficial to our city. Our prior STEP grant has allowed us to field two officer operations dedicated to DUI detection and apprehension, and we hope to continue conducting these saturation patrols. The Chino Police Department has filled several vacancies in the last year and is still aggressively recruiting and hiring to continue to provide a high level of service to the community. With the funding provided by the STEP grant, the Traffic Unit can fund overtime for Traffic Officers and for officers outside of the Traffic Unit that have an interest in traffic-related enforcement. We are fortunate to have officers outside of our Traffic Unit that support our mission and have the experience to conduct the specialized enforcement operation. 2. PERFORMANCE MEASURES A. Goals: 1.

TITLE: FINAL ACCEPTANCE OF PUBLIC IMPROVEMENTS - TRACT MAP NO. 20232 (TAYLOR MORRISON COMMUNITIES).
PAGE: 2
BACKGROUND
In 2003, the Planning Commission approved Chino Development Corporation’s (CDC) application for an “A” level Master Site Approval and Tract Map Nos. 16418 and 16419 to subdivide 370 acres of land to establish large parcels and major street systems for future development within the area generally l ocated south of Kimball Avenue between Hellman and Mill Creek Avenues, north of Pine Avenue for what is known as Phases 1 and 2 of The Preserve Specific Plan.
On May 20, 2019, the Planning Commission approved Tentative Tract Map No. 20223 (an “A” level map ) to further master plan and subdivide 10.12 adjusted gross acres of land for two developments (Tract Map Nos. 20231 and 20232) totaling 176 residential dwelling units within Lot 11 of Phase 2, which is located east of West Preserve Loop, south of Garden P ark Street and west of Main Street.
At the same Planning Commission meeting, William Lyon Homes received approval to develop the west portion of Lot 11 known as Tract Map No. 20232 (Exhibit A). Subsequently, William Lyon Homes was acquired by Taylor Morris on Communities. In addition, CDC requested approval to develop units on the remaining portion of Lot 11 known as Tract Map No. 20231, which was acquired by Lennar Homes.
The Conditions of Approval ("COA") for the “A” level map required CDC to complete the backbone improvements for the “B” level maps. Taylor Morrison Communities was conditioned to complete the in-tract improvements which include, but are not limited to private sewer, private streets, and public domestic water facilities. The public improveme nts necessitated the execution of a Subdivision Improvement Agreement and posting securities that were approved by City Council on February 2, 2021 (Exhibit B).
ISSUES/ANALYSIS
The public improvements are complete and have been constructed to the satisfaction of the City Engineer. The public improvements that are being accepted by the City of Chino include 8” in-tract potable water lines. With approval by City Council, the maintenance obligations by the City will commence for the water improvements.
All required development related fees have been paid and security for a one -year warranty period has been submitted. Under the warranty bond obligation, the developer will correct any defects found within one-year of City Council’s acceptance of the project.

BACKGROUND
In 2008, the City’s Planning Commission approved an “A” level Master Site Approval and Tentative Tract Map No. 16420 to subdivide 522 acres of land generally located south of Pine Avenue, west of Hellman Avenue, and north and east of Chino Corona Road for what is known as the South of Pine area in The Preserve. The purpose of the original Master Site Approval was t o establish large parcels, and phase major backbone street systems for both future residential and non-residential development within the master plan area.
On February 23, 2022, the City’s Planning Commission conditionally approved a Development Modification to the Master Site Approval and Tentative Tract Map No. 16420. The modification removed the phased development concept originally approved, divided the larger land area into smaller lots to be reconveyed for development , and established improvement areas for future development. It is important to note that the Developer Modification also incorporated conditions of approval for improvements along Pine Avenue for associated developments within the larger project area, including Block 9, to help facilitate needed improvements to the area.
At the same meeting , the City’s Planning Commission also conditionally approved an “A” level Master Site Approval to allow for the future development of a public K -8 school, community center, library, park, and a 209-unit rental community on 37.96 acres of land in the Community Core 16 and High-Density Residential land use designations located south of Market Street, north of Legacy Park Street, between Main Street and East Preserve Loop in The Preserve .
This project area is referred to as “Block 9” and is one of the neighborhoods within Tract Map No. 16420, which encompasses lots 33 through 37.
Subsequently, the City Council approved Final Tract Map No. 16420-4 for Block 9 to subdivide lots 33 through 36 (Exhibit A). Final Tract Map No. 16420 -4 excluded Lot 37 since it is being developed separately for the public K -8 school by the Chino Valley Unified School District. A public improvement agreement specifically for the school frontage improvements was appr oved by City Council on February 15, 2022. As part of the Engineering Conditions of Approval for Tract Map No. 16420 -4 the developer is required to design and construct public improvements including, but not limited to, residential amenities such as the co mmunity core promenade, storm drain, street, domestic and recycled water, and sewer improvements within and along Main Street, Legacy Park Street and Academy Street. The requirements made at the time of tentative map approval have been met with the executi on of the Subdivision Improvement Agreement and by posting the necessary securities to guarantee the construction of public improvements, which was approved by the City Council on March 21, 2023.
Following Final Tract Map No. 16420 -4 approval, o n March 21, 2022, the Chino Planning Commission conditionally approved Site Approval and Tentative Parcel Map No. 20380 to subdivide and develop the southern portion of the Block 9 area located north of Legacy Park Street, west of East Preserve Loop, south o f Academy Street, and east of Main Street (Exhibit B). The project consists of a 209 -unit rental community on 12.6 adjusted gross acres at a density of 16.59 dwelling units per acre. As stated previously, Tract Map No. 16420 incorporated conditions of appr oval for improvements along Pine Avenue for associated developments within the larger project area, including Block 9, to help facilitate needed improvements to the area. Although the conditions for Block 9 apply to this tract development, no off-site public improvements are being constructed because Lewis bonded for all the off -site improvements required under Block 9 with Tract Map No. 16420-4.
ISSUES/ANALYSIS
The requirements made at the time of tentative map approval have been met by the execution 264
CITY COUNCIL MEETING DATE: NOVEMBER 7, 2023
TITLE: LEWIS - FINAL TRACT MAP NO. 20380.

of the Subdivision Improvement Agreement for Tract Map No. 16420-4 and by posting the necessary securities to guarantee the construction of public improvements conditioned for Block 9. The City Attorney reviewed and approved the Subdivision Improvement Agreement and respective securities, which is attached as Exhibit C. Therefore, it is staff’s recommendation to the City Council to approve Final Tract Map No. 20380.

On October 21 , 20 19, the City’s Planning Commission conditionally approved Special Conditional Use Permit (SCUP) PL17-0081 and Site Approval (SA) PL17-0082, allowing Manifest Destiny Trucking Corporation (developer) to construct a 2,117 -square foot office building and establish a trucking facility on 4.5 acres of land located at 14085 Magnolia Avenue (Exhibit A).
As part of the Engineering Conditions of Approval requirements, the applicant is required to design and construct certain public improvements along the perimeter o f Edison and Magnolia Avenues including, but not limited t o, sidewalk, curb and gutter, landscaping , water and drainage improvements, street pavement, signing and striping, streetlights , and traffic signal modifications.
Along with the streetlight improvements, the Conditions of Approval required that the developer annex the property into the City’s Landscape and Lighting District No. 2002-1 (Annexation/Zone No. 88) for public streetlight maintenance along the project’s frontage, within the right-of-way.
Before the project moved forward with the construction of the streetlight improvements, the City decided to take a closer look at the existing street lighting on Edison Ave and Magnolia Ave by having the design engineer prepare a photometric study. Based on the study, it was determined that the existing streetlights along the project frontage were more than sufficient and met the City’s standards and lighting specifications. No additional streetlights were required; only the existing lights fronting the project must be annexed.
ISSUES/ANALYSIS
The property owner has requested the annexation of Site Approval PL17 -0082 into the City’s Landscape and Lighting District 2002 -1. Staff recommends that the City Council authorize the initiation of the annexation proce edings for the streetlights fronting the project on Edison and Magnolia Avenues as this will help foster a positive City image through the regular maintenance of these facilities.
According to State law, the City Council must, by resolution, order preparat ion of an Engineer’s Report (“Report”) estimating the annual assessment for each parcel for lighting facility maintenance, approve the Report, and by resolution order the initiation of the annexation process as set forth by State law. By way of ballots mai led to the property owners, the property owners are requested to register their support or protest for the annexation to Landscape and Lighting District No. 2002-1 (Annexation/Zone No. 88). The ballots shall be tabulated at a public hearing held no sooner than 45 days after the ballots have been mailed.
It is estimated that the annual assessment for this project will be $ 280.95 for the first year. The actual assessment will be based on actual costs, and the assessment amount is subject to change each year t o account for maintenance and energy cost changes up to the annual Consumer Price Index for the region.
