14 CITY COUNCIL MEETING DATE: FEBRUARY 6, 2024
TITLE: COLLEGE PARK UPDATE.
PAGE: 2
BACKGROUND
The College Park Specific Plan was approved by the City Council on September 7, 2004. The Specific Plan is 710 acres in size and consists of a variety of land uses that include residential, institutional/school, mixed use, and open space/recreational uses. The community is completely developed with the exception of the build out of the Chaffey College campus, the mixed-use site at Oaks and Eucalyptus Avenues, a 10 -acre public elementary school site near the center of the community at the northeast corner of Mountain Avenue and Satterfield Way, and improvements to Edison Avenue.
The City Council has asked to have a discussion regarding the remaining development within College Park.
ISSUES/ANALYSIS
Chaffey College Campus:
The College is currently constructing a new two story 35,000 square foot instructional building on the Chino campus. The building has a contemporary design and will house a variety of instructional activities, including classrooms, library, resource center , and event space. The building is expected to be completed by the end of summer 2024. A representative from Chaffey College will give a presentation on the status of the project at the City Council meeting.
Mixed Use Site at Eucalyptus and Oaks:
The Campus at College Park development is located on 7.53 acres of land at the southeast corner of Oaks and Notre Dame Avenues. The development was approved by the Planning Commission on June 20, 2022, and consists of three two-story buildings totaling 50,630 square feet of commercial retail, office, and restaurant space, and one single story 27,000 square foot community church building. The project is currently in plan check and construction of the church and main commercial building are expected to begin in March and April 2024, respectively. Completion of the buildings is anticipated to occur by early 2025. The main commercial building will include eight restaurants and two retail spaces on the ground floor.
The second floor will be divided equally into office and restaurant space. To date, the developer has not shared any of the future tenant’s names.
Edison Avenue Improvements:
The College Park Development Agreement requires Lennar to construct Edison Avenue fronting Ayala Park between Central and Oaks. The improvements include widening the roadway, relocating overhead utilities, installing storm drain and recycled water lines, a nd traffic signals modifications as required. Lennar‘s contractor is in the process of installing landscape improvements in the median and parkway. This work is scheduled to be completed by the end of February. The Edison roadway will undergo its final sta ge of pavement rehabilitation this Spring after the City completes necessary sewer repairs at the Central and Edison intersection.
The contractor will then continue installing the remaining segment of Master Planned storm drain along Edison and Oaks after SCE completes the relocation of conflicting dry utilities. Then SCE will complete their relocation work this Spring. After the storm drain installation, the contractor will complete the remaining street improvements at the Edison and Oaks intersection and along Oaks from Edison to Freedom later this year.
Traffic Circle and Crosswalk Improvements:
15 CITY COUNCIL MEETING DATE: FEBRUARY 6, 2024
TITLE: COLLEGE PARK UPDATE.
PAGE: 3
The College Park roundabout has planned improvements which will include, new pedestrian curb ramps and crosswalks with pedestrian activated flashing beacons, new street lighting, landscape improvements, pavement rehabilitation, and signing and striping imp rovements. All improvements are aimed at improving the safe use of the roundabout for all users. This project is currently in the planning stages with the design expected to be completed later this year.
Traffic Signal Installation at Eucalyptus and Fern:
The new traffic signal at Fern and Eucalyptus Avenues is currently out to bid. The award of the construction is expected in March. Procurement of materials will require a 6-months lag. Once the materials are procured, the construction duration is approximately 6-8 weeks. The signal is planned to be completed before the end of 2024. Improvements at the intersection will include crosswalks across all three legs of the intersection providing direct access to Constellation Park.
SCE trail crossing Eucalyptus:
Currently, there is no trail crossing Eucalyptus at the Magnolia Channel within the SCE easement. The curvature of Eucalyptus Avenue combined with the roadway merging from two to four lanes in this area does not provide safe crossing conditions for pedestrians. The nearby Chaffey Avenue traffic signal provides a safe crossing for trail users , which is 400 feet away from the trail. Maintenance access for SCE and San Bernardino County Flood Control currently exists.
10-acre Public School Site:
The College Park Specific Plan is within the Chino Valley Unified School District (CVUSD) boundaries. At the time of approval of the Specific Plan, it was believed that an elementary school would be needed because of the number of residential units expected to be built in the community and the closest existing elementary school at the time was Howard Cattle Elementary School on Cypress Avenue, north of the community (and north of Edison Avenue).
However, it has been determined by CVUSD that a public elementary school will not be necessary in the community. Based on this determination, the master developer, Lennar Homes (Lennar), has been exploring alternative land uses on the site for the last few years, including charter and private schools, or adding additional residential units on the site.
The builder reached out to the community’s homeowners’ association (HOA) on a few occasions to get feedback on different residential proposals starting in 2020. The proposals staff is aware of include two multi-family proposals consisting of 172 units (approximately 17 dwelling units per acre) and 1 63 units (approximately 16 dwelling units per acre), a single-family paseo proposal consisting of 89 units (approximately nine dw elling units per acre) , and a more recent single-family proposal of 38 units (approximately four dwelling units per acre) . Staff was informed by Lennar that the residential proposals were not received well by the residents or the HOA. In addition, staff has been approached separately by individuals interested in establishing both charter and private schools on the site. Ultimately, none of the applicants moved forward with their school proposal.
Currently, the elementary school site has a Co llege Park Specific Plan Institutional (I) land use designation that does not permit residential development. The site is also restricted to elementary, K-6, public school only. To allow for residential development or a private school on the site, approval of an amendment to the College Park Specific Plan and General Plan would be required by the City Council. It is important to note that staff is currently working on a College Park Specific Plan Amendment , to provide more flexibility for development of the 10 -acre 16 CITY COUNCIL MEETING DATE: FEBRUARY 6, 2024
TITLE: COLLEGE PARK UPDATE.
PAGE: 4
elementary school site, staff is proposing to amend the allowed uses in the Institutional land use designation for the site to also allow for private school and park uses. If approved by the City Council, it would allow a private school and/or a park in addition to a public school to be developed on the site. There are no changes proposed by staff at this time that will include the allowances for residential uses on the site.

SECOND AMENDMENT TO DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT
This Second Amendment to Development Agreement (“ Amendment”) is made and entered into as of this day of , 2024, by and between HILLSBOROUGH PHASE III, LLC, a California limited liability company (" Property Owner"), and the CITY OF CHINO, a municipal corporation organized and existing under the laws of the State of California ("City"). Property Owner and City are sometimes individually referred to herein as a "Party" and jointly as the "Parties."
RECITALS
A. Property Owner owns that certain real property consisting of approximately
7.2 acres, located at 11902 and 11930 Central Avenue in City of Chino, California, as legally described in Exhibit A and graphically described on Exhibit B attached to the Development Agreement ("Hillsborough Property").
B. The City and Property Owner entered in to that certain Development Agreement dated November 5, 2019 with respect to the Hillsborough Property which was recorded on June 29, 2020 as Instrument No. 2020 -0215477 in the Official Records of San Bernardino County (“Development Agreement”).
C. Pursuant to the Development Agreement, the Property Owner is required to construct a three story, 62 -unit senior citizen apartment complex on the undeveloped portion of the Hillsborough Property (“ Project”) which was to be completed on or before March 31, 2021 (“Project Complete Date”).
D. Despite Property Owner’s best efforts, processing the plans for the Project in accordance with the Chino Municipal Code and the Development Agreement were materially affected by the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic resulting in unanticipated delays in obtaining applicable approvals and, therefore, the Project was not completed by the Project Completion Date.
E. The Development Agreement incorporated the conditions of approval granted under Site Approval PL16 -0357 for the Project (“ Site Approval”). Condition No. 1.1 provided that the Site Approval would expire on October 7, 2020 if building permits were not obtained by that date (“Site Approval Expiration Date”).

F. On September 20, 2021, following a duly noticed and conducted public hearing, the City’s Planning Commission approved Resolution No. PC2021 031, which recommended approval of modifications to the Development Agreement (“First Amendment No. 1”) so that the Development Plan, as defined therein, would now allow (i) the construction and completion of the Project by March 31, 2024, and (ii) reservation of another two (2) units affordable to low-income households so that a total of eight (8) units shall be made affordable for low-income households.
G. On October 5, 2021, following a duly noticed and conducted public hearing, the City Council approved the introduction of Ordinance No. 2021 011 (“Ordinance”), and on October 19, 2021, adopted after a second reading, adopted the Ordinance approving and authorizing the execution of the First Amendment to modify the Development Agreement as specified above. The Ordinance includes the modifications to the Development Plan as approved herein.
H. As part of its approval of the First Amendment, as stated in the Ordinance, the City Council determined the Project to be exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines pursuant to Section 15332, Infill Development Projects.
J. For the past 18 months, Property Owner’s Director of Construction, Zaven Hanessian, was facing medical issues . Zaven Hanessian has been a foundational part of the Property Owner’s business and, without his guidance, this Project was unable to move forward.
K. However, in showing its commitment to move forward, Property Owner has hired Tony Coppolino as its new Director of Construction, with Zaven Hanessian serving in a consulting role as his health improves, to allow the Project to move forward.
L. Therefore, City and Property Owner wish to enter into this Second Amendment to update the Site Approval Expiration Date and extend the Project construction and completion date.

TITLE: CHINO PRESERVE DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION - SUBDIVISION IMPROVEMENT AGREEMENTS FOR TRACT MAP NOS. 20446 AND 20446-1 (BLOCK 3).
PAGE: 2
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 to 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 to help facilitate needed improvements to the area.
Subsequently, on September 19, 2022, the City’s Planning Commission a pproved Master Site Approval PL21 -0045 and Tentative Tract Map No. 20446 to create 114 numbered lots and 7 lettered lots to accommodate 114 single -family homes (known as “Block 3”). This project is generally located on the north side of Chino Corona Road b etween Main Street and Legacy Park Street as shown in Exhibit A. Tract Map No. 16420 (as amended) will dedicate and require surety for portions of offsite improvements within the Tentative Tract Map No. 20446 area.
Furthermore, Tentative Tract Map No. 2044 6 is intended to be recorded in two phases. Each phase may be recorded independently of the other.
As a result, the City Council approved Chino Preserve Development Corporation’s Final Tract Map No.16420-5 on November 23, 2023, to subdivide 24.91 acres wit hin Block 3 as shown in Exhibit B. The developer is currently requesting that the City approve the Final Maps for Tract Map Nos. 20446 and 20446 -1 to subdivide the previously approved Tract Map No. 16420 -5 for the future development of a 10.78 -acre subdivi sion consisting of 55 single -family residential units (Tract Map No. 20446) and a 10.53 -acre subdivision consisting of 59 single -family residential units (Tract Map No 20446-1). These subdivisions are in the Low-Density Residential land use designation area of The Preserve within Block 3, as shown on Exhibit C and C-1.
The Engineering Conditions of Approval (COA) for Block 3 require public improvements including, but not limited to curb, gutter, sidewalk, streetlights, asphalt concrete pavement, median/parkway landscape, sewer, water, recycled water and drainage improvements. To guarantee the completion of these public improvements, the developer is required to enter into a Subdivision Improvement Agreement and obtain the necessary securities for the improvements.
ISSUES/ANALYSIS
The requirements made at the time of tentative map approval have been met by the execution of the Subdivision Improvement Agreements for Tract Map Nos. 20446 and 20446 -1 and by posting the necessary securities to guarantee the construction of public improvements conditioned for Block 3. The City Attorney reviewed and approved the Subdivision Improvement Agreements and respective securities, which are attached as Exhibit D and D-1. Therefore, staff recommends that City Council approve Final Tract Map Nos. 20446 and 20446-1.

The City Engineer shall evaluate all claims to Force Majeure and make a reasonable determination regarding the length of any extension of time for commencement and/or completion of the Works of Improvement and the City Engineer’s decision shall be final.
2.4. Continuous Work . After commencement of construction of the Works of Improvement (or separate portion thereof), Subdivider shall cause such work to be diligently pursued to completion and shall not abandon the work for a consecutive period or more than thirty (30) days, events of Force Majeure excepted.

TITLE: FINAL ACCEPTANCE OF PUBLIC IMPROVEMENTS FOR TRACT MAP NO. 20231 (LOT 11).
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 ge nerally located 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 Park 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. Subsequently, William Lyon Homes was acquired by Taylor Morrison Communities. In addition, CDC requested approval to develop units on the remaining portion of Lot 11 known as Tract Map No. 20231 (Exhibit A), which was acquired by Lennar Homes of California, Inc. (“Lennar”).
The Conditions of Approval ("COA") for the “A ” level map required CDC to complete the backbone improvements for the “B” level maps. Lennar was conditioned to complete the in -tract improvements which include, but are not limited to private sewers, private streets, and public domestic water facilities. The public improvements necessitated the execution of a Subdivision Improvement Agreement and posting securities that were approved by City Council on October 20, 2020 (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.

The Fiscal Year 2022 -2023 Capital Improvement budget included Measure I funding for the Kimball, El Prado & Central Traffic Improvements Project (ST222) and the Edison Avenue Traffic Signal Modifications Project (TR151). Neither p roject was included in Resolution No. 2022-069 and now needs to be incorporated into the approved projects list so that the City remains compliant with the San Bernardino County Transportation Sales Tax Program requirements. Therefore, the City Council is being asked to adopt an updated Fiscal Year 2022- 2023 Measure I Capital Improvement Plan projects list. Attached is Resolution No. 2024 -003 which includes the revised Measure I Five Year Capital Improvement Plan for Fiscal Years 2023 to 2027.

CITY COUNCIL MEETING DATE: FEBRUARY 6, 2024
TITLE: COOPERATION AND REIMBURSEMENT AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE CITY OF
CHINO AND THE CITY OF CHINO HILLS FOR THE CHINO HILLS PARKWAY STREET REHABILITATION PROJECT (R7231).
PAGE: 2
BACKGROUND
Two segments of Chino Hills Parkway (CHP) require pavement rehabilitation and associated work. One segment consists of CHP between the Chino Hills’ northwest city boundary and the intersection of CHP and Carbon Canyon Road (hereinafter, “Segment 1”). All of Segment 1 lies within the City of Chino Hills boundary. The other segment consists of CHP located between State Route (SR) 71 and Monte Vis ta Avenue (hereinafter, “Segment 2”). The boundary separating the City of Chino and the City of Chino Hills lies roughly along the centerline of CHP between SR71 and Monte Vista Avenue. Accordingly, the northern portion of Segment 2 lies within the boundary of the City of Chino, and the southern portion lies within the boundary of the City of Chino Hills.
The Chino Hills Parkway Pavement Rehabilitation Project (R7231) will generally consist of the following scope of work: within Segment 1 and the portion o f Segment 2 located in the City of Chino Hills; the Project will involve pavement rehabilitation, ADA ramp upgrades to meet current standards, installation of new video detection equipment, and restriping. With the portion of Segment 2 located in the City of Chino, the Project will involve pavement rehabilitation, new ADA-compliant ramps and sidewalks, new video detection equipment installation, and restriping.
The bulk of the Project is located within the City of Chino Hills; therefore, Chino Hills will a ct as the lead agency and will be responsible for all California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) compliance, managing and directing all aspects of the Project, including retaining a qualified engineering consultant to design the Project, retaining a quali fied general contractor through a competitive bidding process per applicable law, managing the construction contract, and overseeing construction of the Project through completion.
ISSUES/ANALYSIS
The City of Chino and Chino Hills wish to divide the P roject costs equitably. Segment 1 is located entirely in Chino Hills. Therefore, all Project costs associated with Segment 1 will be the responsibility of Chino Hills. Segment 2 straddles the city boundaries; therefore, the design consultant will be direct ed to specify the location (Chino or Chino Hills) of each Project component within Segment 2, and the bid documents will require the bidder to assign the costs of each Project component in Segment 2 to the city within which the work will be completed. Per terms of the Agreement, the Cities have agreed to share the costs associated with Project design, Project management, and CEQA documentation. The estimated total construction cost for the City of Chino’s portion is approximately $410,000. The obligation s hares are further defined in the table below:
CITY OF CHINO HILLS SHARE CITY OF CHINO SHARE
Design Cost (~$87,113) 86.5% 13.5% (~$11,760)
CEQA Documentation 86.5% 13.5%
Project Management 86.5% 13.5%
Segment 1 Construction 100% n/a
Segment 2 Construction 100% of the portion within Chino Hills right of way

COOPERATION AND REIMBURSEMENT AGREEMENT
BETWEEN THE CITIES OF CHINO AND CHINO HILLS REGARDING
THE CHINO HILLS PARKWAY PAVEMENT REHABILITATION PROJECT
This Cooperation and Reimbursement Agreement (“Agreement”) is entered into this 6th day of February, 2024 (“Effective Date”) between the City of Chino Hills (“Chino Hills”) and the City of Chino (“Chino”). For purposes of this Agreement, Chino and Chino Hills may be referred to herein individually as a “Party” and collectively as the “Parties.”
RECITALS
A. Two segments of Chino Hills Parkway (“CHP”) are in need of pavement rehabilitation and associated work. One segment consists of that portion of CHP located between Chino Hills’ northwest city boundary and the intersection of CHP and Carbon Canyon Road (hereinafter, “Segment 1”). All of Segment 1 lies within the boundaries of Chino Hills. The other segment consists of that portion of CHP located between SR 71 and Monte Vista Avenue (hereinafter, “Segment 2”). The boundary separating Chino and Chino Hills lies roughly along the centerline of CHP between SR 71 and Monte Vista Drive. Accordingly, the northern portion of Segment 2 lies within the boundaries of Chino and the southern portion lies within the boundaries of Chino Hills.
B. The Chino Hills Parkway Pavement Rehabilitation Project (the “Project”) will consist generally of the following scope of work: Within Segment 1 and the portion of Segment 2 located in Chino Hills, the project will involve pavement rehabilitation, ADA ramp upgrades to meet current standards, installation of new video detection equipment where not currently installed, and restriping.
With the portion of Segment 2 located in Chino, the project will involve pavement rehabilitation, new ADA compliant ramps and sidewalk, installation of new video detection equipment where not currently installed, and restriping.
C. Because the bulk of the Project will be located within Chino Hills, Chino Hills will act as the lead agency and will be responsible for CEQA compliance and managing and directing all aspects of the Project, including (i) retaining a qualified engineering consultant to design the Project, (ii) retaining a qualified general contractor through a competitive bidding process held in accordance with applicable law, and (iii) managing the construction contract, and (iv) overseeing construction of the Project through completion.
D. The Parties wish to divide the Project costs in an equitable fashion. Because Segment 1 is located entirely in Chino Hills, all Project costs associated with Segment 1 will be the responsibility of Chino Hills. Because Segment 2 straddles the cities’ boundaries, the design consultant will be directed to specify the location (Chino or Chino Hills) of each Project component within Segment 2, and the bid documents will require each bidder to assign the costs of each Project component in Segment 2 to the city within which the work will be completed. The Parties have agreed to share the costs associated with Project design and CEQA compliance in the proportion specified herein.
237
E. The Parties endeavor to have the Project design completed by April 2024, to have the CEQA process completed by April 2024, to have the competitive bidding process completed by July 2024, and to have construction commence by Summer 2024.
NOW, THEREFORE, for valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged and accepted, the Parties agree as follows:
1. Purpose. The purpose of this Agreement is to define the relative roles of Chino and Chino Hills with respect to the Project and to establish terms and conditions for the allocation and reimbursement of Project costs.
2. City of Chino Hills’ Responsibilities.
2.1. Chino Hills is responsible for retaining a qualified consulting engineer to design the Project. To this end, Chino Hills has contracted with BKF Engineering, Inc. (“BKF”), an engineering firm that both Parties agree is qualified to provide design services for the Project. In its agreement with BKF, Chino Hills will require BKF to specify the location (Chino or Chino Hills) of each Project component within Segment 2 in a manner that will allow Chino Hills to provide, where appropriate, separate line items in the bid documents to ensure that the costs associated with work completed in each city are distinctly identified and accounted for. In the event the Parties do not agree on an allocation indicated by BKF, the Parties agree to meet and confer in good faith in order to arrive at a mutually agreeable allocation before proceeding. Chino Hills is responsible for paying BKF in full pursuant to the terms of the consulting agreement. Chino will share in the cost of the design consultant as set forth below.
2.2. Chino Hills is solely responsible for obtaining any and all required permits and will serve as lead agency for purposes of the California Environmental Quality Act.
2.3. Chino Hills is responsible for retaining a qualified general contractor through a competitive bidding process held in accordance with applicable law. Chino Hills will prepare the bid documents in a manner that requires separate line-item bids for Project components within Segment 2 that are entirely within, and will become the sole property and responsibility of, the City of Chino (e.g., the new ADA compliant ramps and sidewalk, the new video detection equipment, and restriping within Chino’s public right-of-way). Chino Hills will consult with Chino in the course of preparing the Project specifications and bid package and will not release a Notice Inviting Bids until and unless the Parties have agreed on the form of the Project specifications and bid package. Chino Hills will require the general contractor to name Chino as additional insured on all policies of insurance required to be kept and maintained by the contractor pursuant to its agreement with Chino Hills and will further require that all such policies provide Chino with 30 days’ notice prior to any cancellation of coverage.
