SAN BERNARDINO COUNTY SOLID WASTE ADVISORY TASK FORCE
Council Representative: Christopher Flores | Staff Report By: Xo chitl Huerta Meeting Date: October 15, 2025
The Solid Waste Advisory Task Force (SWAT) convened on October 15, 2025.

SB 54 (2022) – the Plastic Pollution Prevention and Packaging Producer Responsibility Act - The meeting featured a presentation by Melissa Sparks-Kranz, Legislative Advocate with the League of California Cities, who provided an overview of the Plastic Pollution Prevention and Packaging Producer Responsibility Act.

Her presentation outlined the early steps in SB 54's im plementation and emphasized that the law aims to reduce plastic pollution and promote a circular economy through shared responsibility among producers, recyclers, and local governments.

Key discussion points included:
 Objectives and Goals of SB 54: Establishing measurable targets to reduce single -use plastics and increase recycling and composting of packaging materials.  Materials Covered by the Law: Packaging types such as plastic films, foams, and other single -use products.
 Circular Economy Initiatives: Transitioning from conventional packaging (e.g., bubble wrap and foam) to sustainable alternatives (e.g., Geami and Padpak systems).  Producer Responsibility Organization (PRO): Introduction of the Circular Action Alliance, the approved PRO responsible for implementing producer compliance and funding programs.  Implications for Local Governments: Producer funding will offset new local costs associated with implementation, emphasizing collaboration between jurisdictions and producers.  Advocacy and Engagement: Updates on the SB 54 advisory board and opportunities for local governments to remain involved in regulatory development.

Relevance to Chino: The presentation underscored the important role of local jurisdictions in supporting statewide recycling and waste-reduction goals. The City of Chino will continue monitoring SB 54 rulemaking as they take effect.

Legislative Update – Organic Waste & Food Recovery Bills (October 2025) The Governor signed the following bills in October 2025 affecting California’s organic waste diversion and food recovery framework.
 AB 411 – On-Farm Livestock Composting - Authorizes agricultural operations to compost routine livestock mortalities onsite under specific conditions. Impact on Chino: Minimal direct impact; relevant to Chino’s agricultural areas where small livestock operations may utilize on -farm composting instead 13 MONTHLY AGENCY REPORTS – DECEMBER 16, 2025 (Covering Meetings from 10/1/25 – 10/31/25) PAGE 7

of traditional disposal methods.
 AB 1046 – Exemption for Agricultural Crop Preparation Services- Exempts certain agricultural processing facilities from SB 1383 edible food recovery requirements if they can demonstrate they have not disposed of organic waste in landfills. Impact on Chino: Limited applicability; the City should remain aware of this exemption when assessing c ompliance and conducting outreach to local agricultural businesses.
 SB 279 – Composting Capacity Expansion - Expands small -to-medium-scale composting capacity statewide by modifying requirements for composting agricultural materials onsite. The bill allows certain composting operations to accept up to 10% of food material by volume for up to five years before needing a full solid waste facility permit, provided specific conditions are met. It also increases the amount of finished compost that these operations may give away or sell annually, from 1,000 cubic yards to 5,000 cubic yards. Impact on Chino: May support local or regional composting initiatives by expanding capacity options and easing pressure on existing waste infrastructure.

Overall Relevance: These new laws enhance flexibility for agricultural and small -scale composting operations while supporting the broader goals of SB 1383. Continued awareness ensures the City of Chino remains compliant and responsive to evolving state organics regulations.

Council Member Lucio noted the City will now have the ability to require developers to make improvements along Euclid Avenue and collaborate with the County on improvements along the Chino Airport.

Mayor Pro Tem Burton emphasized the need for more resources to address the significant repairs on Euclid Avenue, the lack of support from the State of California, and noted that the City will need to pursue grants to obtain additional funding. He expressed that the County needs to address repairs on their portion of Euclid Avenue in front of the Chino Airport.

Council Member Comstock commented that the project represents one part of transportation challenges on the south side of the City, including the Pine Avenue connector and bridging Chino Creek.

Mayor Ulloa inquired about the funding expected in May 2026 as part of the reliquishment and 26 CHINO CITY COUNCIL

Stubbie Barr, spoke regarding the City of Chino Hills' commitment, since about 65 percent of the construction falls within the City of Chino Hills.

Council Member Comstock commented this project has been discussed extensively in the Infrastructure / Streets Committee, acknowledged the issues with the previous plan, and emphasized that adopting a new plan was in the City's best interest. She explained the revised design has stronger regional support, improved features, and greater cooperation from the Army Corps of Engineers, who are now more receptive to working with the City.

Mayor Pro Tem Burton inquired about how the new design will benefit the City of Chino. Ms.

Lee explained the previous design faced significant challenges, and it would have required importing approximately 350,000 cubic yards of dirt. The new design is supported by the Army Corps of Engineers and the City of Chino Hills. The Environmental Impact Report (EIR) process will ensure that community concerns are addressed. 27 CHINO CITY COUNCIL
DECEMBER 2, 2025 8
The City Council Members commented on the level of support and financial contributions offered by the City of Chino Hills and our partnership with them on this project.

Ms. Lee explained staff presented the project to the City of Chino Hills in October 2025, where they provided unanimous support, and identified safety traffic concerns, which will be addressed, including extending a traffic impact analysis to Carbon Canyon Road.

Ms. Lee shared that the cost sharing details are to be determined, noting the expectation is federal grants will hopefully cover approximately 80 percent of the project, with the remaining amount to be determined.

Mayor Pro Tem Burton spoke regarding the benefits to connect both cities. Ms. Lee shared how this project will offer a fire evacuation route option for the City of Chino Hills should they experience a wildfire at Chino Hills State Park.

City Manager Reich explained that in the initial discussions with elected officials, the main question was whether the City of Chino Hills supported the project. Now that consensus has been reached, it will be easier to secure federal and state funding.

Mayor Ulloa encouraged the City Council and staff to advocate for funding from Chino Hills since the majority of this project lies within their community and will benefit them.

Motion by Council Member Comstock, seconded by Council Member Lucio, to 1) Award a professional services agreement to Biggs Cardosa Associates in the amount of $6,964,986.99 for Environmental and Design Services for the Pine Avenue Connector/Bridge Project (ST261); 2) appropriate $2,086,590.28 from the Citywide Development Impact Fee (Fund 220 ), establish a new grant project G7261 and appropriate $3,505,806.71 to the Transportation Fund (Fund 320) for utilizing SAFETEA-LU grant funds and appropriate $1,372,590.00 to Measure I Arterial (Fund 328) (backfill from Fund 220) for a total project appropriation amount of $6,964,986.99 and a revised total project budget for Project ST261 and G7261, in the amount of $7,014,986.99; and 3) authorize the City Manager to execute all necessary documents on behalf of the City.

Staff Report By: Sylvia Ramos, Contracts & DIF Administrator and Jesus Plasencia, Assistant City Engineer
28 CHINO CITY COUNCIL
DECEMBER 2, 2025 9
RECOMMENDATION: 1) Approve a budget amendment, as shown in the Fiscal Impact section of this report, reallocating and updating project funding sources for Project R2501 (Merrill Avenue Widening, Interconnect, and Euclid Avenue Median Improvements) to reflect approved change order work and updated cost allocations among appropriate funding sources, and increase the total project budget by $1,983,767, for a revised total project budget not to exceed $17,692,868; 2) appropriate $2,322,542 to the Transportation Fund 320 with a back fill from the Citywide Circulation Development Impact Fee Fund 220 to support the revised project budget and reduce the Preserve Fund 260 budget by ($338,775); 3) approve an amendment to the Construction Reimbursement Agreement between the City of Chino and Euclid Land Venture, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, increasing the reimbursement amount by $1,983,767 for a total not-to-exceed amount of $17,692,868; and 4) authorize the City Manager to execute all the necessary documents on behalf of the City.

Jesus Plasencia, Assistant City Engineer and Sylvia Ramos, Contracts & DIF Administration provided a presentation on the item.

Ms. Ramos provided a handout to the City Council detailing the cost summary, noting the information was too detailed to provide on the presentation slide. The handout was saved to the meeting record.

Mr. Plasencia explained that the City joined the City of Ontario to perform improvements on the west side of Euclid Avenue. Mayor Pro Tem Burton asked why we would take on the repairs when Euclid Avenue has not yet been relinquished to the City.

Council Member Lucio and Council Member Comstock answered the question by stating that the City chose to complete the improvements due to the cost effectiveness of already having a contractor onsite. The project would not have been completed by Caltrans, and if the City completed the project at a later date, the cost would have increased.

Ms. Lee confirmed the City collected some in lieu of fees and Development Impact Fee (DIF) funds to help with the costs.

Mayor Ulloa commented it would be helpful for Council Committees, such as the Infrastructure/Streets Committee to provide report updates to the entire City Council.

Council Member Lucio shared this item was previously brought before the entire City Council for discussion.

Stubbie Barr, provided a public comment regarding the project and deferred maintenance by Caltrans.

Motion by Council Member Flores, seconded by Council Member Comstock, to 1) Approve a budget amendment, as shown in the Fiscal Impact section of this report, reallocating and updating project funding sources for Project R2501 (Merrill Avenue Widening, Interconnect, and Euclid Avenue Median Improvements) to reflect approved change order work and updated cost allocations among appropriate funding sources, and increase the total project budget by $1,983,767, for a revised total project budget not to exceed $17,692,868; 2) appropriate $2,322,542 to the Transportation Fund 320 with a back fill from the Citywide Circulation Development Impact Fee Fund 220 to support the revised project budget and reduce the Preserve Fund 260 budget by ($338,775); 3) approve an amendment to the Construction Reimbursement Agreement between the City of Chino and Euclid Land Venture, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, increasing the reimbursement amount by $1,983,767 for a total not -to-exceed amount of 29 CHINO CITY COUNCIL

Mayor Ulloa inquired about how many cities have joined so far. City Attorney Galante reported three of their clients have joined so far, and suspects a fairly large number California cities will join.

Council Member Comstock commented this case is important to so many cities and explained why it is prudent for the City to join.

Mayor Ulloa inquired about costs associated with joining. City Attorney Galante explained the cost to join would not be more than a couple thousand dollars.

There is no fiscal impact.

37 CITY COUNCIL MEETING DATE: DECEMBER 16, 2025
TITLE: GOVERNMENT RELATIONS UPDATE FOR DECEMBER 16, 2025.

PAGE: 2

BACKGROUND
On April 2, 2024, the City Council adopted the Citywide Legislative Policy , which outlines guiding principles organized by legislative, policy, and regulatory matters. It supplements the Citywide Strategic Plan to build an effective and flexible legislative advocacy strategy.

The Policy authorizes Staff to formulate and approve official City responses for those legislative items with potentially significant impact on the City or that create an issue of timeliness for an official response, with the qualification that the position is determined to be consistent with the City’s legislative policy.

Per the Policy, t he Committee or Staff is to report to the City Council on any u pdates, recommendations, or actions taken by the Committee or Staff.

ISSUES/ANALYSIS
The Government Relations Update provides a review of major legislative and government relations issues of note to the City (Attachment 1).

There are no State Update and Tracked State Legislation reports this month as the first year of the state legislative session has concluded and the legislature is in recess until January 5, 2026.

City of Chino
GOVERNMENT RELATIONS UPDATE (Attachment 1)
As of December 10, 2025 (December 16, 2025 City Council Agenda)

FEDERAL UPDATE
Federal Budget
Shortly after the publication of the Government Relations Update on November 12, 2025, a compromise continuing resolution (CR) funding the government through January 30, 2025, was signed into law. With the CR expiration and Christmas break looming , ongoing discussions and potential threats of future shutdowns remain due to unresolved FY 2026 appropriations issues.

Leadership continues to work on the remaining nine appropriations measures . House Appropriations Chair Tom Cole (R -OK) and his Senate coun terpart, Chairwoman Susan Collins (R -ME), reached consensus on topline numbers for five FY26 bills, excluding the two largest measures, Defense and Labor-HHS-Education. This agreement opens the path for the Senate to prepare these measures for floor consideration.

Congress continues to try to pass the measures it can. There are r umors that whatever cannot be passed by January 30 may be rolled into a minibus or omnibus spending package for the remainder of the year. How congressionally funded projects included in those bills will be impacted is unknown.

Schedule for Congress
The House will be in session until December 17. Members are scheduled to leave D.C. on December 18 and return on January 6, 2026.

Affordable Care Act Expiration
The discussions surrounding the Affordable Care Act (ACA) subsidies are currently at a standstill, with no clear plan to extend them before they expire on December 31. Democrat s propose extending the subsidies for three years, while Republicans propose sending money directly to patients , reducing government involvement, and implementing reforms and cost reductions . Leaders in both chambers continue to work on their preferred partisan health care legislation ahead of floor votes . It appears unlikely that a resolution will be reached by December 31.

Texas Redistricting Case
In a 6-3 decision, the Supreme Court ruled Texas's new congressional map will stand for the upcoming midterms. A decision had to be made as Texas’s filing deadline was December 8.

STATE UPDATE AND TRACKED STATE LEGISLATION REPORTS
There are no reports this month as the first year of the state legislative session has concluded and the legislature is in recess until January 5, 2026.

POSITION LETTERS & MAJOR ISSUES
No letters on legislation or regulatory issues have been submitted since the October 15, 2025, report on the City Council agenda.

43 CITY COUNCIL MEETING DATE: DECEMBER 16, 2025
TITLE: SALARY SCHEDULE CORRECTION FOR UNREPRESENTED MANAGEMENT EMPLOYEES.

PAGE: 2

BACKGROUND
On November 18, 2025, the City Council approved the salary schedule for Unrepresented Management employees, effective November 24, 2025. Upon subsequent review, staff identified a clerical error in the salary range listed for the classification of Environmental Compliance Supervisor. The approved salary schedule incorrectly listed the base salary as $9,992.00 annually, $832.67 monthly, and $4.80 hourly, whereas the correct base salary should be $99,992.00 annually, $8,332.67 monthly, and $48.07 hourly.

ISSUES/ANALYSIS
In accordance with Title 2, Section 570.5, of the California Code of Regulation s, the California Public Employees’ Retirement System (CALPERS) requires that salary schedules be duly adopted and approved by the City Council. While no employees have been adversely affected in terms of pay, the published salary schedule must be corrected to ensure compliance with CalPERS guidelines.

The salary schedule included in the current Compensation and Benefit Plan for Unrepresented Management employees must also be updated to reflect this correction.

This correction does not result in any budgetary impact, as the correct salary range has been used operationally for payroll purposes.

Attachment: Resolution No. 2025 -091 Salary Schedule and Compensation and Benefit Plan for Unrepresented Management

44 RESOLUTION NO. 2025-091

A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF CHINO,

Effective the beginning of the pay period including July 1, 2026, the Classification Plan and Compensation Schedule for Unrepresented Management Employees shall reflect a three percent (3%) COLA as reflected in the Classification Plan and Compensation Schedule set forth at the end of this Compensation and Benefit Plan.

RETENTION PAY:

All Unrepresented Management Employees still employed by the City as of November 24, 2025 shall receive a one-time, lump sum retention payment in the amount of 0.90% of their base pay, as Off-Salary-Schedule Pay per section 571(a) of Title 2 of the California Code of Regulations, to be issued through Payroll and subject to applicable taxes and withholdings, and shall not be considered earnable or pensionable compensation under the California Public Employees’ Retirement System.

DIRECT DEPOSIT:

All Employees will have funds directly deposited into an account they established for deposit of their payroll checks.

LONGEVITY PAY:

Employees are eligible for longevity pay as a one-time lump sum payout as follows:
 10 years of service - $500 paid in a lump sum at time of anniversary.  15 years of service - $1,000 paid in a lump sum at time of anniversary.  20 years of service - $1,500 paid in a lump sum at time of anniversary.  25 years of service - $2,000 paid in a lump sum at time of anniversary.  30 years of service - $2,500 paid in a lump sum at time of anniversary.  35 years of service - $3,000 paid in a lump sum at time of anniversary.  40 years of service - $3,500 paid in a lump sum at time of anniversary.  45 years of service - $4,000 paid in a lump sum at time of anniversary.

DEFERRED COMPENSATION PLAN:

A deferred compensation plan, 457(b), is available to all Employees, providing tax-deferred savings to serve as a retirement supplement. An Employee may contribute to the City’s designated deferred compensation plan up to the maximum annual amount allowed by federal and state law through a payroll deduction program.

City Contribution
The City-paid contribution to deferred compensation is two hundred and fifty dollars ($250) per month. The contribution will be placed in a deferred compensation account, 401(a), selected by the City. Loans are permitted.

Page 3 ends

Leave conversion contributions for the “457 Catch-up” shall normally be distributed over an Employee's last three (3) years prior to their planned retirement date. However, based on the total amount of “457 catch-up” contributions available to the Employee, accumulated Sick Leave hours, and the Employee's designated retirement date, “457 Catch-up” contributions may occur over a shorter period of time prior to retirement. To be eligible to participate, the Employee must be within three (3) years of their planned retirement date, have “457 catch-up” privileges available to them, be enrolled in the City- sponsored 457 Deferred Compensation Plan.

“Catch-up” – Sick Leave
Employees are not entitled to 100% cash-out of Sick Leave until completion of five (5) years of service with the City as the final employer and either a qualified service or disability retirement. The City will advance Employees 47 years of age or older a cash-out of their accrued Sick Leave up to the indexed amount if they choose to utilize the “Catch Up” provision provided through the City’s 457 plan.

In the event an Employee separates for any reason other than service or disability retirement from the City prior to being eligible to receive 100% Sick Leave pay, said Employee will be required to reimburse the excess amount of Sick Leave previously paid out. The reimbursement will be deducted by the City from any or all earned funds available to the Employee on separation, without it being necessary for the City to seek a civil judgment for the monies.

In order to participate, the Employee will select the amount of Sick Leave they want transferred into deferred compensation at the beginning of each of the three (3) years. The amount can be a selected number of hours or a percentage of Sick Leave remaining at the end of the year. The Employee’s Sick Leave balance would then decrease commensurately with the amount of funds withdrawn.

The Employee will continue to accrue Sick Leave hours at the normal rate while participating in this program.

“Catch-up” hours advanced will be counted towards the Employee’s Sick Leave bank for the Sick Leave Program calculation.

“Catch-up”– Vacation Leave
To participate, the Employee will select the amount of Vacation Leave they want transferred into deferred compensation at the beginning of each of the three (3) years. The amount can be a selected number of hours or a percentage of Vacation Leave remaining at the end of the year. The Employee’s Vacation Leave balance would then decrease commensurately with the amount of funds withdrawn.
57

The Employee maintaining their Vacation Leave maximum would still be eligible for Vacation Leave incentives, such as Vacation Leave Conversion. The Employee will continue to accrue Vacation Leave hours at the normal rate while participating in this program.

“Catch-up”– Other Leave Banks
In order to participate, the Employee will select the amount of other leave (this may be Sick Leave Conversion, Management, Floating Holiday, Compensatory Time and/or Holiday Leave) to be transferred into deferred compensation at the beginning of each of the three (3) years. The amount must be a selected number of hours of leave. The Employee’s leave balance would then decrease commensurately with the amount of funds withdrawn.

“Age 50+ Catch-up”
In the calendar year an Employee reaches age 50 (or older), they may contribute an additional amount over the normal maximum contribution limit (per the IRS limit). The “Age 50 Catch-up” and “Pre-Retirement Catch-up” provisions may not both be used in the same calendar year. Employees may use accrued Sick, Vacation, Management, Floating Holiday, Compensatory Time leave hours to contribute this additional amount.

Defined Contribution Plan - 401(A):

This plan, offered in addition to the existing 457 Deferred Compensation Plan, allows Employees to defer additional income (beyond what is allowed in the 457 Plan) as a means of accumulating greater savings for retirement. Participation is voluntary. Employees who elect to enroll in the 401(a) Plan contribute pre-tax contributions in one of the established amounts: 1% - 20% inclusive, 25%, or 100%. The City contributes $1 per pay period per participating Employee. An Employee’s election to enroll in the 401(a) Plan is irrevocable.

Loans are permitted.

Contributions to the deferred compensation plan will be discontinued while an Employee is receiving Workers’ Compensation payments.

ACTING PAY:

The City will grant Acting after an Employee has worked in a higher classification for twenty (20) consecutive work days or twenty (20) non-consecutive work days in a ninety (90) calendar day period. To receive Acting Pay, an Employee must be formally assigned the duties of the higher classification. This assignment must be confirmed by the processing of a Personnel Action Form (PAF). Acting Pay will be five percent (5%) above the Employee’s current base salary rate or Step “A” of the Acting position Classification, whichever is greater, or otherwise, as determined by the City Manager

Subject to the conditions noted above, qualifying Employees will receive Acting Pay for all days worked in an Acting position, i.e., after twenty (20) consecutive work days or twenty (20) non- consecutive work days in a ninety (90) calendar day period. The Employee will receive Acting Pay retroactive to the first day of serving in the acting capacity.

ADDITIONAL DUTY PAY:

Afforded to an Employee who takes on a significant number of extra assignments in an area different than their regularly assigned responsibilities. An Employee performing this type of work 58

Page 5 ends

for a period of time greater than two (2) weeks may be afforded a percentage increase in salary to compensate for performing dual functions at the discretion of the Department Director.

BILINGUAL PAY:

Employees are eligible to receive one hundred and sixty dollars ($160) per month (except for eligible Police Records & Evidence Supervisor and Public Safety Dispatch Supervisor who receive two hundred and forty dollars ($240) per month) (paid over 24 pay periods) for verbal fluency in any language, other than English, that the Department Director deems necessary, including sign language, under the following conditions:

a. Certification: A competency examination will be administered by the Human Resources/Risk Management Department to determine Employees’ proficiency. Testing and its frequency are at the discretion of the City. An Employee must pass the City’s competency examination to be eligible for Bilingual Pay. b. Department Director Approval: To be eligible to take the City’s competency examination, an Employee must be recommended by the Department Director.

If one or more City holidays fall within an annual Vacation Leave, the holidays will not be charged as Vacation Leave; however, extension of the Vacation Leave for the period of such holiday(s) is subject to approval of the City Manager.

A temporary increase in the total Vacation hours accrued (in excess of 400 hours) may be approved by the Department Director and notification to the Finance Department to affect this temporary exception.

VACATION LEAVE BUY BACK:

At separation or retirement, 100% of accrued Vacation Leave, to a maximum of four hundred (400) hours, will be paid at the Employee’s existing base rate of pay. New Employees with less than six (6) months of service are ineligible to receive Vacation Leave Buy Back. The percentages may be adjusted in accordance with the Retirement Health Savings Plan elections and provisions for affected individuals, per IRS regulations.

VACATION LEAVE CONVERSION:

Employees who have accumulated a minimum of one hundred and twenty (120) vacation hours may convert a maximum of eighty (80) hours of vacation leave to pay per fiscal year. Employees may convert leave to pay in April and/or November of each year, calculated at the Employee’s hourly base rate of pay at the time of conversion. Six (6) months prior to date of conversion, half* the number of accrued leave hours requested, excluding Sick Leave, must have been taken as time off.

*This usage requirement is waived for “active” military personnel.

WORK BOOTS/WORK SHOES:

Supervising Building Inspector and Supervising Code Compliance Inspector – Will receive a three hundred dollar ($300) allowance in their first paycheck in January. These funds will be used by the Employee for the purchase of safety-rated work boots or work shoes. Employees are required to wear and maintain work boots/work shoes in conformance with OSHA regulations and City appearance standards.

WORKERS’ COMPENSATION PROGRAM:

Page 18 ends

Vacation, Floating Holiday, Management and/or Compensatory Leave Time for full salary continuance.

Commencing the fourth day of the injury, the City will continue the Employee’s salary at a rate of 66-2/3% of the current monthly salary, less any applicable deductions (i.e., credit union, health insurance coverage), for a period not to exceed twelve (12) months. If the disability extends for a period beyond fourteen (14) calendar days the City will credit the Employee for the first three (3) days of Sick Leave used. If hospitalization is required the first, second, and third days salary is paid by the City through the Workers’ Compensation program.

WORKERS’ COMPENSATION PREMIUM PAYMENT:

In the event of a work-related illness or injury, which results in a permanent disability settlement, the City will provide a 10% premium benefit payment provided the following occurs:
 That the Workers’ Compensation Appeals Board approves the total settlement, including the 10% premium benefit.
 That neither a “Notice of Claim” nor “Application for Adjudication of claim” will have been filed or served against the City of Chino.
 That the injured Employee has diligently sought medical attention as prescribed by the treating physician(s) approved by the City.
 That the injured Employee and the City have employed the guidance of the State Department of Industrial Relations Office of Information and Assistance to resolve any outstanding issues or misunderstandings.

Representation is a legal right recognized by statutory law. Nothing precludes an Employee from retaining legal counsel or representation; however, the premium benefit offered is only available in cases handled without the involvement of legal counsel. This is done in recognition of the cost savings that result in non-litigated cases that can be passed on to the ill or injured worker.

SAVINGS CLAUSE:

Should any clause in this Compensation and Benefit Plan be held invalid by law and/or by a court of competent jurisdiction, then only that clause will be stricken and the remainder of the Compensation and Benefit Plan will remain in full force and effect.

IMPLEMENTATION:

These benefits are subject to consideration and approval by the City Manager of the City of Chino and will only be implemented upon adoption by the City Council.

85 CITY COUNCIL MEETING DATE: DECEMBER 16, 2025
TITLE: UPDATED COMPENSATION AND BENEFIT PLAN FOR UNREPRESENTED SWORN MANAGEMENT.

PAGE: 2

BACKGROUND
The Compensation and Benefit Plan for Unrepresented Sworn Management includes a provision that ensures salary alignment between Unrepresented Sworn Management and the Chino Police Managers Association (CPMA) classifications. The existing language provides that any general salary increase, cost -of-living adjustment (COLA), or other across -the-board base salary increase granted to CPMA -represented employees shall be applied concurrently to the Unrepresented Sworn Management employees.

ISSUES/ANALYSIS
To ensure continued consistency and fairness in total compensation, staff recommends updating the language in the Compensation and Benefit Plan for Unrepresented Sworn Management to reflect a broader range of compensation -related adjustments. The proposed revision expands the scope beyond base salary and COLAs to include other monetary benefits such as increases to deferred compensation contributions, uniform allowances, specialty pays, and similar forms of compensation.

The revised language also clarifies that while the Captain and Deputy Chief of Police will receive the same $510 per month City contribution to deferred compensation as CPMA - represented employees, the Chief of Police will continue to receive a fixed $700 per month City contribution to their deferred compensation.

This update ensures continued alignment between the compensation of Unrepresented Sworn Management and CPMA-represented employees, while also providing clarity and consistency in the application of compensation adjustments.

DEFERRED COMPENSATION PLAN:

A deferred compensation plan, 457(b), is available to all Employees, providing tax-deferred savings to serve as a retirement supplement. An Employee may contribute to the City's designated deferred compensation plan up to the maximum annual amount allowed by federal and state law through a payroll deduction program.

City Contribution
Chief of Police – A contribution of seven hundred dollars ($700) per month is made into the City’s selected plan, 401(a), for the Employee. Loans are permitted.

Deputy Chief of Police and Captain – A contribution of five hundred and ten dollars ($510) per month is made into the City’s selected plan, 401(a), for each Employee. Loans are permitted.

“Catch-up” Provision
Pursuant to federal and state law, Employees attaining the minimum age of 47, who are within three (3) years of their planned retirement date, may take advantage of the 457 Deferred Compensation Plan "Catch-up" provisions and allowances as defined in federal and state law. To the extent allowed by federal and state law and the City's deferred compensation plan administrator, the City will allow, during the three (3) years prior to an Employee’s planned retirement date, the conversion of accrued Sick, Vacation, Management, Floating Holiday, Sick Leave Conversion, and Holiday Leave hours to cash contribution at the Employee’s base rate of pay in effect at the time of conversion. Leave conversion contributions for the “457 Catch-up” shall normally be distributed over an Employee’s last three (3) years prior to their planned retirement date. However, based on the total amount of “457 Catch-up” contributions available to the Employee, accumulated sick leave hours, and the Employee’s designated retirement date, "457 Catch-up" contributions may occur over a shorter period of time prior to retirement. To be eligible to participate, the Employee must be within three (3) years of his/her planned retirement date, have “457 Catch-up” privileges available to them, be enrolled in the City-sponsored 457 Deferred Compensation Plan.

“Catch-up”– Vacation Leave
In order to participate, the Employee will select the amount of Vacation Leave he/she wants transferred into deferred compensation at the beginning of each of the three (3) years. The amount can be a selected number of hours or a percentage of Vacation Leave remaining at the end of the year. The Employee’s Vacation Leave balance would then decrease commensurately with the amount of funds withdrawn.

“Catch-up”– Other Leave Banks
In order to participate, the Employee will select the amount of other leave (this may be Floating Holiday, Sick Leave Conversion and/or Management Leave) to be transferred into deferred compensation at the beginning of each of the three (3) years. The amount must be a selected number of hours of leave. The Employee’s leave balance would then decrease commensurately with the amount of funds withdrawn.

“Age 50+ Catch-up”
In the calendar year an Employee reaches age 50 (or older), they may contribute an additional amount over the normal maximum contribution limit (per the IRS limit). The “Age 50 Catch-up” and “Pre-Retirement Catch-up” provisions may not both be used in the same calendar year. Employees may use accrued Sick, Vacation, Management, Floating Holiday, Sick Leave Conversion, and Holiday Leave hours to contribute this additional amount.

Defined Contribution Plan - 401(A):

Contributions to the deferred compensation plan will be discontinued while an Employee is receiving Workers’ Compensation payments.

SUPPLEMENTAL CONTRIBUTION FOR RETIREES:

Employees separating from City employment as a result of a non-disputed disability or service retirement after completion in either case of fifteen (15) years of continuous, uninterrupted, full- time sworn City service shall receive a monthly supplemental contribution equal to fifteen dollars ($15) per month multiplied by the number of years of service from time of retirement and shall continue until death of the retiree. (For example, an Employee retiring after 15 years of required continuous service shall receive a City-funded supplemental contribution in the amount of $225 per month.) However, if the retiree dies after receipt of this benefit for less than fifteen (15) years, then the benefit will continue to be paid to the eligible spouse, if any, until the duration of benefits payments totals a complete fifteen (15) years from the date that the payments commenced. For example, if the eligible retiree should die after receiving ten (10) years of the supplemental contribution as described herein, and the now deceased eligible retiree has a legal spouse, said spouse shall continue to receive the benefit for a remaining 5 years. No benefit shall be provided to any other beneficiary with the exception of what is noted here after the member’s death. A 105

Page 17 ends

disputed disability retirement is defined as one in which the City has not certified the retirement as being valid for disability status. This benefit in its entirety shall apply only to Employees employed as of June 30, 1998. Thereafter, no future Employees in this position classification shall qualify for this benefit at any level whatsoever. Future hires will be provided with no supplemental contribution for retirees.

TUITION ADVANCE PROGRAM:

The non-probationary status requirement does not pertain to those Employees who are considered to hold probationary status due to a promotion into a new position in the City. Affected Employees are required to complete one year of service with the City from the date of completion of course work to be eligible for this benefit. Individuals voluntarily separating from the City prior to completion of one year of service with the City from date of completion of course work will be required to reimburse the City for funds advanced to them under this program. Said reimbursement shall be deducted from any separation check to be distributed to the Employee, no matter what the nature of the funds, without the necessity of a judgement being mandated on behalf of the City.

Employees agree that upon accepting a tuition advance from the City, the Employee is responsible to provide the City with verification of completion of class(es), grade(s) and receipts for expenses within sixty (60) calendar days from the date of final course work (as indicated on the request for tuition advance form submitted by the Employee). In the event that the educational institution attended does not provide the Employee with verification of completion or grades or receipts within this sixty (60) calendar days timeframe, the Employee is responsible to notify the Director of Human Resources/Risk Management, in writing, of such and an additional sixty (60) calendar days extension will be granted. In the event that an Employee does not provide verification of completion of class(es), grade(s) and receipts for expenses at the end of either the initial sixty (60) calendar days or at the end of the extension of an additional sixty (60) calendar days (to 120 calendar days total), the City will have the right to automatically make a payroll deduction from 106

Page 18 ends

the Employee’s next regular payroll check in an amount equal to the amount of tuition funds advanced.

TUITION REIMBURSEMENT – ENHANCED PROGRAM:

Employees who have incurred otherwise reimbursable tuition cost in an amount greater than the maximum amount available shall be eligible to receive additional reimbursement to the extent that tuition reimbursement funds are available at the end of each fiscal year. No such distribution will be made until the conclusion of the fiscal year in order to verify the number of Employees making an application for the enhanced benefit. Employees must submit a tuition reimbursement invoice to the Human Resources/Risk Management Department no later than May 1st of each year in order to participate in this Enhanced Program.

It shall remain the individual Employee’s responsibility to apply for and receive written authorization to participate in a tuition reimbursable course prior to any such enrollment.

UNIFORM CLOTHING/CLEANING ALLOWANCE:

The City shall provide to affected Employees a clothing/cleaning allowance of one thousand two hundred dollars ($1,200) per year. Affected Employees shall receive payment for their total clothing/cleaning allowance one time per year. This payment shall be in a check separate from the Employee’s regular paycheck and shall be provided at the time of distribution on the second payroll check in August of each year. Upon appointment/promotion to a non-eligible position classification or separation from employment prior to the end of a fiscal year, the Employee shall be responsible to reimburse to the City on a pro-rated basis such amount which he/she is no longer eligible to receive.

VACATION LEAVE:

Maximum accrual of Vacation is four hundred (400) hours. Upon termination of employment, accrued Vacation will be paid at the Employee’s then existing hourly rate of pay. New Employees with less than six (6) months of City service are ineligible to receive Vacation Leave buy back. It is the responsibility of Employees to schedule Vacation time off for rest and recuperation in order that earned Vacation time in excess of four hundred (400) hours will not be removed from the records.

Vacation Leave will be taken at a time approved by the Chief of Police with due regard for the wishes of the Employee and particular regard for the needs of the City. Unless otherwise provided by Department rules, Employees must submit vacation requests to their supervisor at least seven 107

Page 19 ends

(7) calendar days prior to the intended start of vacation. No person will be permitted to work for compensation for the City during his/her vacation except with prior approval of the Chief of Police.

In the event that one or more City holidays fall within an annual Vacation Leave, the holidays will not be charged as Vacation Leave; however, extension of the Vacation Leave for the period of such holiday(s) is subject to approval of the City Manager.

A temporary increase in the total vacation hours accrued (in excess of 400 hours) may be approved by the Chief of Police and notification to the Finance Department to affect this temporary exception.

VACATION LEAVE BUY BACK:

At separation or retirement, 100% of accrued Vacation leave, to a maximum of four hundred (400) hours, will be paid at the Employee’s existing base rate of pay. New Employees with less than six (6) months of service are ineligible to receive Vacation Leave Buy Back. The percentages may be adjusted in accordance with the Retirement Health Savings Plan elections and provisions for affected individuals, per IRS regulations.

VACATION LEAVE CONVERSION:

Chief of Police – May convert a maximum of one hundred and twenty (120) hours of Vacation Leave to pay per fiscal year. Employees may convert leave to pay in April and/or November of each year, calculated at the Employee’s hourly base rate of pay at the time of conversion. Six (6) months prior to date of conversion, half* the number of accrued leave hours requested, excluding Sick Leave, must have been taken as time off.

Deputy Chief of Police and Captain – Employees who have accumulated a minimum of one hundred and twenty (120) vacation hours may convert a maximum of eighty (80) hours of Vacation Leave to pay per fiscal year. Employees may convert leave to pay in April and/or November of each year, calculated at the Employee’s hourly base rate of pay at the time of conversion. Six (6) months prior to date of conversion, half* the number of accrued leave hours requested, excluding Sick Leave, must have been taken as time off.

*This usage requirement is waived for “active” military personnel.

CITY COUNCIL MEETING DATE: DECEMBER 16, 2025
TITLE: TENTATIVE AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE CITY OF CHINO AND TEAMSTERS LOCAL 1932 PROFESSIONAL, TECHNICAL AND CLERICAL UNIT REGARDING UNIFORM ALLOWANCE.

PAGE: 2

BACKGROUND
The City was contacted by the California Public Employees’ Retirement System (CalPERS) to verify pay rates and special compensation for a retired City employee, specifically related to the Uniform Allowance benefit. As part of the verification process, CalPERS requested a copy of the Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) between the City and Teamsters Local 1932 Professional, Technical and Clerical Unit (Teamsters PTC Unit) that was in effect during Fis cal Year 2023–2024.

Upon review, it was discovered that language related to CalPERS uniform reporting guidelines had been inadvertently omitted from the MOU covering the period of July 1, 2023, through June 30, 2025. Despite the omission, the City confirme d that the practice of reporting the monetary value associated with providing and maintaining required employee uniforms to CalPERS has remained consistent and unchanged.

ISSUES/ANALYSIS
To ensure compliance with CalPERS reporting requirements and alig n with the City’s established compensation reporting practices, the City and representatives from the Teamsters PTC Unit met and reached a Tentative Agreement that reinstates the uniform reporting language retroactively to July 1, 2023.

The Tentative Agre ement has been ratified by both parties. However, in accordance with CalPERS guidelines, formal approval by the City Council is required. The uniform reporting language has also been included in the Teamsters PTC Unit’s successor MOU, covering the period o f July 1, 2025, through June 30, 2027, and was approved by the City Council on September 16, 2025.

There is no fiscal impact associated with this Tentative Agreement, as it reflects an existing and ongoing practice rather than a new or expanded benefit.

CITY COUNCIL MEETING DATE: DECEMBER 16, 2025
TITLE: FINAL ACCEPTANCE OF PUBLIC IMPROVEMENTS FOR TRACT MAP NO. 20170 RICHLAND HOMES OF MARYLAND, INC.

PAGE: 2

BACKGROUND
On August 5, 2019, the Planning Commission approved Chino Preserve Development Corporation’s applications for PL18 -0010 (Master Site Approval) and PL18 -0011 (Tentative Tract Map No. 20161), an “A” level subdivision for conveyance purposes and the master plan authorizing up to 494 residential units (the Van Vliet Project). An “A” level subdivision functions as the master -level map for a project, establishing the overall planning areas, circulation network, and development framework, and allowing future “B” level tentative tract maps to be processed consistent with the approved master plan. The Van Vliet Project is generally located south of Bickmore Avenue, north of Pine Avenue, west of Rincon Meadows, and east of future Mayhew Avenue (Exhibit A).

Tract Map No. 20161 created ten numbered lots and eight lettered lots to establish the planning areas and support seven future “B” level tentative tract maps. As part of the Van Vliet approvals, Tentative Tract Maps 20169, 20170, 20171, 20172, and 20270 were subsequently approved to allow development by guest homebuilders.

Richmond American Homes of Maryland, Inc. purchased Tract No. 20170, a “B” level map authorizing development of 80 detached condominium units on approximately 7.10 adjusted gross acres.

The Engineering Conditions of Approval (“COA”) for Tract Map No. 20170 required the developer to design and construct certain public improvements on Meridian St , between Meadowhouse Ave and Osprey St and Paddock Ave, between Botany St and Meridian St, including, but not limited to, sidewalk, curb ramps, asphalt concrete over lay, streetlights, parkway landscaping, signing and striping, sewer and domestic water improvements. To secure these obligations, the developer executed a Subdivision Improvement Agreement and posted the required securities, which the City Council approved on December 15, 2020 (Exhibit B). All costs associated with the design and construction of the required improvements were fully borne by the applicant; therefore, there is no direct fiscal impact to the City.

Tract Map No. 20170 is included in the Settlem ent Agreement approved by the City Council on November 15, 2022. This tract falls under Category C, which applies to parcels approved on or after January 1, 2017. Under Category C, the developer must comply with the City’s ADA Policy on Pedestrian Faciliti es (adopted December 3, 2019 ) per the settlement agreement and the ADA Policy at that time . When all improvements are properly constructed and meet ADA requirements, the City Council will accept them as complete.

The public improvements for this project were completed in accordance with the approved plans and to the satisfaction of Public Works staff. The project reached substantial completion in September 2024. Between October 2024 and October 2025, the contractor and project manager coordinated wit h the City’s project engineer to address various administrative items included in the final punch list to close out the project file, including as -built drawings, grading certificate, compaction report, CAD/GIS files, and backflow certification. All outsta nding punch list items have since been completed to the City’s satisfaction.

ISSUES/ANALYSIS
The public improvements being accepted by the City of Chino, as described above, are included as shown on Exhibit C. The public improvements completed have been constructed in compliance with the City’s standards/specifications, including accessibility requirements, and to the satisfaction of the Public Works Inspector. All public improvements that were part of the COA for this project were fully funded by the developer. 117

Under the warranty bond obligation, the developer will correct any defects found within one year of the City Council’s acceptance of the Project.

On February 19, 2021, the Development Services Department administratively approved an application submitted by Dunbar Holdings Chino, LLC for the property located at 3415 Chino Avenue. The approval authorized the construction of a 2,907 -square-foot expansion to the existing veterinary hospital (Exhibit A).

The Engineering Conditions of Approval (“COA”) for PL18-0106 required the developer to design and construct certain public improvements along the property frontage on Chino Avenue including, but not limited to, sidewalk, curb and gutter , asphalt concrete overlay, a streetlight, parkway landscaping, and driveway approaches. The public improvements completed by the developer necessitated the execution of a Public Improvement Agreement and posting securities that the City Council approved on December 6, 2022 (Exhibit B). It should be noted that the costs associated with the design and construction of the required public improvements are completely offset by the applicant. There is no direct fiscal impact on the City

The conditions of approval required the owner to annex the property to the City’s Landscape and Lighting District No. 2002 -1 (Annexation/Zone No. 89) for public streetlight maintenance along the project’s frontage, within the right-of-way.

On December 6, 2022, the City Council approved Resolution 2022 -080, which declared the City’s intention to annex the property into Landscape and Lighting District (LLD) No. 2002 -1 (Annexation/Zone No. 89) and approved the Engineer’s Report, which estimates the annual assessment to be levied from the property for streetlight maintenance. By way of ballots mailed to the property owner(s), the property owner(s) are requested to register their support or protest for the annexation to Landscape and Lighting District No. 2002 -1 (Annexation/Zone No. 89). On February 7, 2023 , the City Council held a public hearing and approved Resolution 2023-007 ordering the annexation into Landscape and Lighting District No. 2002 -1 (Annexation/Zone No. 89).

The public improvements for this project were completed in accordance with the approved plans and to the satisfaction of Public Works staff. The project reached substantial completion in April 2025. The applicant/property owner requested for a Bond Rider a nd the City issued a letter on June 12, 2025. Between June and November 2025 , the contractor and project manager coordinated with the City’s project engineer to address various administrative items included in the final punch list to close out the project file, including as -built drawings, grading certificate, compaction report, CAD/GIS files, and backflow certification. All outstanding punch list items have since been completed to the City’s satisfaction.

Security for a one -year warranty period has been submitted to the City. Under the war ranty bond obligation, the developer will correct any defects found within one year of the City Council’s acceptance of the Project. Also, upon completion and final acceptance, the public improvements shall become the sole exclusive property of the City to operate and maintain. The 185

CITY COUNCIL MEETING DATE: DECEMBER 16, 2025
TITLE: PROFESSIONAL SERVICES AGREEMENT - YUNEX, LLC, RIVERSIDE, CA FOR MAINTENANCE SERVICES FOR CITYWIDE STREET LIGHTING.

BACKGROUND
The City currently has approximately 8,700 streetlights within its jurisdiction. These streetlights are owned and maintained by a combination of entities: the City of Chino (approximately 3,250 lights), Southern California Edison (SCE) (approximately 2,700 lights), and Homeowners Associations (HOAs) (approximately 2,300 lights).

Streetlight maintenance services for all City -owned streetlights, parking lot lighting, and facility walkway lighting is current ly performed under an existing Public Works contract. The scope of services includes routine preventative maintenance, emergency and unanticipated repairs (such as streetlight pole knockdowns and associated electrical repairs), and installation of replacement poles and related infrastructure.

As part of the City's ongoing commitment to energy efficiency and infrastructure modernization, the updated scope of work includes provisions to support the continued transition from High - Pressure Sodium Vapor (HPSV) fixtures to Light Emitting Diode (LED) technology. Some of the benefits for transitioning to LED include energy efficiency as LED fixtures consume significantly less energy compared to traditional HPSV lights, cost savings with reduced energy usage results in lower operational costs, extended service life as HPSV fixtures typically last 24,000 operating hours while LED fixtures range from 50,000 hours to 100,000 hours life span, and improved reliability since LEDs require less frequent replacement and provi de more consistent illumination, enhancing public safety and service reliability.

The new agreement allows for LED upgrades to be completed as part of the repair process, supporting a gradual and cost-effective transition.

Included in the scope of work is a comprehensive, Citywide streetlight inventory and condition assessment. The goal of the assessment is to formalize and consolidate streetlight asset information into a standardized and consistent dataset for City use. The inventory and assessment will do cument and verify streetlight locations, confirm ownership responsibility where applicable, and capture key asset attributes for each pole, including pole height, light wattage, arm length, and related characteristics. The work will also align existing rec ords with current field conditions to ensure consistency across all datasets.

Upon completion, the contractor will provide the verified streetlight data to the City for integration into the City’s GIS database. This enhanced inventory will support ongoing maintenance activities, allow for tracking of lighting and pole replacements, strengthen asset management practices, and improve operational efficiency, while building upon the City’s existing streetlight records and processes.

ISSUES/ANALYSIS
On Octob er 2, 2025, the City released a Request for Proposals (RFP No. 2025 -0024) “Maintenance Services for Citywide Street Lighting” via PlanetBids, in accordance with the City’s procurement policies. The City received three (3) proposals by the closing date of October 30, 2025. A review committee, consisting of City staff, evaluated proposals separately to maintain confidentiality & fairness. Staff then scored these proposals using the following weighted criteria:
 Experience/qualifications: 20%
 Past performance/references: 25%
 Plan methodology/project approach: 20%

 Quality of responsiveness of proposal: 15%
 Competitive pricing: 20%

As part of the RFP, proposers were asked to provide pricing for:
 Monthly routine preventative maintenance
 Emergency and unanticipated repairs (e.g. repairs due to traffic collisions)  LED upgrade efforts

Emergency and unanticipated repairs are a significant portion of the services agreement. The average replacement cost of a concrete knocked -down streetlight is approximately $8,000. The City typically experiences 10 to 15 knockdowns per year, resulting in an estimated annual cost of $120,000. Staff makes every effort to recover costs when a responsible party can be identified. Additionally, an additional $200,000 has been projected to complete the Citywide LED Conversions Initiative by the end of Fiscal Year 2025-26.

Following the evaluation of the proposals, Yunex, LLC received the highest average score and is recommended for contract award.

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 shall 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 shall, 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.

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 are 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 269
01225.0001/863604.2 17
to be the basis for a claim of lien, City may withhold from 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 exclusive 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 pursuant 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.

Since the determination of actual damages for any delay in performance of this Agreement would be extremely difficult or impractical to determine in the event of a breach of this Agreement, the Consultant and its sureties shall be liable for and shall pay to the City the sum of Zero ($0) as liquidated damages for each working day of delay in the performance of any service required hereunder. The City may withhold from any monies payable on account of services performed by the Consultant any accrued liquidated damages.

7.8 Termination Prior to Expiration of Term.

This Section shall govern any termination of this Contract except as specifically provided in the following Section for termination for cause. The City reserves the right to terminate this 270

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 addition to any other relief which may be granted, whether legal or equitable, shall be entitled to reasonable attorney ’s fees.

CITY COUNCIL MEETING DATE: DECEMBER 16, 2025
TITLE: AWARD OF CONTRACT - SHADY GROVE PARK IMPROVEMENTS PROJECT (PK262).

PAGE: 2

BACKGROUND
In March 2024, Chino voters approved Measure V, a one -cent sales tax increase to fund essential City services , such as park improvements. During the same year, the Community Services, Parks & Recreation Department’s Parks and Facilities Division completed a citywide assessment of playground equipment and safety surfacing at all City -owned and maintained parks. The resulting condition data informed a replacement schedule based on age, safety/compliance, and lifecycle status. Shady Grove Park was built in 2005, encompasses approximately seven acres of open space, and includes a picnic pavilion, playground, restroom building, and walking path. The playground and p avilion were identified for early -phase replacement due to condition and utilization.

The improvement project is also based on the Shady Grove Park accessibility survey completed in May 2019, which identified necessary accessibility improvements througho ut the park , such as accessible paths of travel, compliant picnic tables, and replacement and relocation of existing restroom fixtures. The project will also include LED lighting upgrades, parking lot redesign to increase capacity, and related utility work to meet current codes and standards.

Architerra Design Group was selected from the City’s list of pre -qualified on -call consultants.

Architerra is a well-established firm and has previously worked with the City of Chino on multiple projects. Their familiarity with City standards and processes positions them to efficiently deliver this project. At staff’s request, Architerra submitted a detailed proposal to prepare plans, specifications, and construction documents in the amount of $212,240, inclusive of subconsultants for geotechnical, surveying/building scan, civil, architectural, electrical, and stormwater/hydrology services.

ISSUES/ANALYSIS
Staff is recommending that City Council authorize a Professional Services Agreement in the amount of $212,240 with Architerra Design Group, Rancho Cucamonga, CA for the design of the Shady Grove Park Improvements Project. In addition to the contract amount, staff is requesting to spend up to $21,224 on contingencies for unanticipated work, bringing the total potential contract to $233,464. This request requires appropriation of $133,464 to the Park Fund 340 with a backfill from the General Fund reserves for a revised project budget of $233,464.

SHADY GROVE PARK IMPROVEMENTS

CITY OF CHINO
The City of Chino is requesting proposals for design improvements at Shady Grove Park, located at 6776 Chino Avenue. The project’s scope involves several key enhancements to increase accessibility and improve park amenities for the community. Planned upgrades include ADA improvements in accordance with the City’s ADA transition plan, ADA improvements to the existing restroom building, replacement of the current picnic pavilion and playground with a new, accessible playground, and an upgrade of the park’s lighting to LED. Additionally, the existing parking lot will be expanded and a new trash enclosure will be added to better serve park visitors. The goal of these improvements is to increase accessibility for the public, provide a new playground with recreational amenities, and revitalize the existing park while preserving elements that are loved by the community.

Some specific features of the project include improvements to hardscape and restrooms to meet ADA standards, the installation of an accessible nature/grove/tree-themed playground, with rubber tile play surfacing, a new shade structure, updated site lighting and an expanded parking lot.

Additionally, it is our understanding that the City is looking to fast track this project with the goal to get plans in for first plan check/city review by the end of March of 2026, with the project going out to bid by June of 2026.

Project Approach:

ADG brings proven experience designing award-winning parks and partnering successfully with cities across Southern California. We understand how to deliver creative, functional designs that respond to site conditions and stay within budget. Our team is prepared to work closely with the City of Chino to bring your vision to life, on time and with purpose.

Upon notice to proceed, ADG will meet and coordinate with the City to review the proposed scope, budget, project details, and confirm a project start date and key milestones A preliminary project schedule has been provided in this proposal. Based on the agreed-upon start date and milestones, we will update our project schedule accordingly. Following this discussion, our team will prepare a site plan base from the topographic survey and perform a comprehensive site analysis in conjunction with the ADA accessibility assessment report (provided by the City of Chino) to document existing conditions, utilities, and ADA conflicts.

The findings from this site analysis will help identify the opportunities and constraints existing on site for the overall redesign and ADA retrofit criteria. These insights will be integrated into the stated objectives discussed during the initial kick-off meeting with the City along with desired park amenities and will provide a launching point for the two conceptual park design alternatives for City review and selection, one “minimum” approach with standard improvements and amenities and the other being a “Wow Factor” design with higher end amenities.

ADG will facilitate two design review meetings with the City following the initial kick off; the first to present two conceptual design alternatives, taking note of the City’s preferred design and any feedback for revisions. The second meeting will be to review the final design concept and supporting exhibits, incorporating all the feedback from the previous meeting. At this time the City can provide any further minor comments for finalizing the design. Additionally, we have included time for a preliminary cost estimate based off the final design.

If no further input is required and the concept is approved, ADG will proceed into the Construction Document Phase. This phase will include the development of the following:

• Geotechnical Report (Geotek)
• Demolition Plans
• Construction plans (Layout and Hardscape)
• Irrigation Plans
• Planting Plans
• Construction, Irrigation, and Planting detailing and specifications • Lighting and Electric Plan (JCA)
• Grading and Drainage Plans (LD King)
• Restroom Retrofit Plans (SVA)
• Structural Engineering (LSI, Skyways, ICON, and RGSE) 323
10221-A Trademark St., Rancho Cucamonga, CA 909-484-2800

SHADY GROVE PARK IMPROVEMENTS

CITY OF CHINO

Project Assumptions:
• The Parking Lot Expansion is a priority for the City and as such ADG has included all the optional fees from LD King and JCA to account for the possibility of additional work required. We’ve also included a fee from RGSE for the structural engineering of the trash enclosure that will be designed by ADG.
• The City has indicated that once the contract is approved, the project will have a tight turn around schedule, with roughly 1 month for the conceptual design phase and two months for the construction document phase. ADG has included a Gantt chart schedule for City review. • The structural engineering fees for the prefabricated structures are estimates based off the manufacturers representatives. These fees may change as the project moves forward and ADG cannot guarantee that they remain as shown in the project scope. If at a later date the estimated structural fees for the prefabricated play and shade structures changes, ADG will notify the City of the change, and provide a change order to cover the extra costs for the structural engineering. • The City specifically requested that there will be no deferred submittals regarding amenities requiring structural engineering, which is why ADG provided estimated fees to front load the price of engineering for City Council review.
• 3D renderings of the playground will be provided by LSI, ADG will work with LSI to get the two proposed playgrounds designed for the initial concept reviews, and LSI will provide those initial renderings. When the City has selected their preferred design alternative LSI will provide finalized renderings of the play area.
• 3D renderings will only show the play area and will not include a 3D rendering of the whole site. If the City would like a 3D rendering of more than just the play area, ADG can request a quote from our 3D Modeling Consultant.
• The ADA Site Survey provided by the City will be used as a guideline by ADG for addressing the ADA issues where they occur on site. ADG will work with our subconsultant, LD King , to address corrections needed to the hardscape, parking and picnic seating areas Our Scope of Services are further detailed below and are listed in order of anticipated completion. 325

Planning
The City of Redondo Beach hired ADG to create a conceptual landscape master plan and construction documents for the Dominguez Park playground renovation. The project’s goal was to revitalize the park’s 1.25-acre playground area, which is part of the larger 24-acre park. The plan called for several key improvements, including replacing outdated equipment with new, themed playground structures and installing new rubberized surfacing for enhanced safety. The project also focused on improving accessibility by creating new ADA-compliant pathways and developing a new, improved trail system within the playground area.

ADG successfully delivered both the conceptual master plan and the final construction documents, providing the City of Redondo Beach with a comprehensive plan to bring the redesigned playground to life. The project is now complete, and the community can enjoy a modern, safe, and accessible play area.

Planning
The goal of this project was to transform the park into a safer, more community-friendly environment. Our scope of work included the design of the planting, irrigation, and hardscape for the park’s interior.

A key element of our design was a meandering, ADA-accessible concrete path that encircles the park. This path was carefully planned in collaboration with L.D. King Civil Engineering to maximize its walking benefits while preserving the park’s existing mature trees. Our design also included a new playground addition, while ensuring the existing playground equipment in the northern section would remain. The planting plan specifically featured drought-tolerant trees and shrubs to align with sustainable landscape practices. This completed project has successfully provided the community with an updated, functional, and beautiful public space.

Proposal No. P-1000925-CR
Architerra Design Group

Rancho Cucamonga, California 91730

Attention: Mr. Andrew Krumwiede

Subject: Proposal for a Limited Geotechnical and Infiltration Evaluation City of Chino Shady Grove Park Improvement Project
6776 Chino Avenue
Chino, San Bernardino County, California

Dear Mr. Krumwiede:

As requested, GeoTek, Inc. (GeoTek) is pleased to submit this proposal to prepare a Limited Geotechnical and Infiltration Evaluation for the City of Chino Shady Grove Park renovation project located at 6776 Chino Avenue, in the City of Chino, San Bernardino County, California.

This proposal has been prepared based on the information provided and GeoTek’s experience with these types of projects.

Site and Project Description

The project consists of renovation of the existing park improvements , which is understood to consist of, but not necessarily limited to, Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) improvements, replacement of the existing picnic pavilion and playground , lighting upgrades and redesign of the existing parking lot . Minimal cuts and fills are anticipated to be required during construction.

Based upon information provided, the proposed improvements are to be supported by shallow foundation systems. On-site stormwater management is also anticipated for the project.

Based on review of published geologic maps , the project area is underlain by alluvium. Some surficial fill is most likely to be present due to the existing site improvements.

No active or potentially active fault s are known to exist at the project site , nor is the project site situated within an “ Alquist-Priolo” Earthquake Fault Zone. The project site is located within an area identified by the State of California as having a potential for liquefaction.

Architerra Design Group Proposal No. P-1000925-CR
Proposal for a Limited Geotechnical and Infiltration Evaluation October 6, 2025 Chino, San Bernardino County, California Page 2

Proposed Scope of Work

In order to characterize the subsurface soil conditions at the site, GeoTek will perform a reconnaissance of the site. Permission/approval to enter the project site area and coordination to excavate and collect soil samples on the propert y will need to be provided by Architerra Design Group.

GeoTek will excavate a minimum of four (4) exploratory hand auger borings in currently accessible areas of the park . The borings will be excavated within the area of the proposed renovations. All of the borings will be excavated to a maximum depth of approximately five (5) feet, or refusal, whichever occurs first. Bulk and in -situ soil samples will be obtained from the excavations.

Additionally, two (2) infiltration borings will be excavated to a depth of approximately five (5) feet each below existing grades and will subsequently be utilized for infiltration testing. The infiltration testing will be completed in general conformance with County of San Bernardino guidelines.

Once the excavating and sampling operations are completed, the boreholes will be backfilled with the soil cuttings and capped with native soil.

Prior to performing the field investigation, a representative of GeoTek will stake or spray paint the proposed exploration locations. Please be advised that GeoTek will not commence the field investigation until a representative of the project has reviewed the proposed exploration locations and has verified that those locations are clear of buried utility lines. Prior to conducting the field explorations, GeoTek will contact Underground Service Alert (USA) to identify buried utilities that may be in the vicinity of the proposed exploration locations. This service does not mark locations of privately owned utilities. The fee for a private utility locator has not been included in the costs of this proposal to identify possible private utilities within the proposed area s of work which would not be marked by the public utility locator. Regardless of the use of a private utility locator, GeoTek will not be responsible for damage to unmarked subsurface structures or appurtenances as a result of the field activities.

Soil samples obtained from the explorations will be reviewed for subsequent laboratory testing.

Laboratory testing will likely include in -situ moisture content, maximum density/optimum moisture content, direct sh ear, expansion index and corrosion testing. Subsequent to the completion of the field work and laboratory testing, a Limited Geotechnical and Infiltration Evaluation report will be prepared. The report will include but not necessarily be limited to overall feasibility of the proposed improvements from a geotechnical standpoint; exploration 342

logs including descriptions of materials encountered; an exploration location map; geologic setting; site seismic criteria; depth to groundwater if encountered; geotechnical hazards; soil corrosivity and soluble sulfate test results; foundation design recommendations; preliminary parking lot design sections; infiltration test results; and geotechnical recommendations for grading and construction.

The cost for the Limited Geotechnical and Infiltration Evaluation is $7,370. A more detailed breakdown of the costs is included in the fee estimate table attached to this proposal.

A final report can be submitted within approximately 10 working days following completion of the site exploration. It is estimated that work can commence as soon as written authorization is received. Assuming there are no delays due to availability of exploration equipment, site accessibility and inclement weather, it is anticipated that the field phase of the study will commence promptly once authorized by the client.

CLOSURE

The fees covered by the above estimate are limited to the stated scope and do not include any response to jurisdictional review questions, construction -related services, additional meetings or consultations that may be requested. Services beyond those outlined in this proposal and requested/authorized will be invoiced at the prevailing hourly rates, as indicated on the attached Work Authorization and Agreement.

Please sign and return a copy of the enclosed "Work Authorization and Agreement" form to this office.

If GeoTek receives a request to proceed (whether verbal, in writing or in the form of a Work Order or Purchase Order) with any or all of the services described in this proposal prior to receiving a signed copy of the attached Work Authorization and Agreement, and GeoTek provides any or all of the services, GeoTek and Architerra Design Group expressly agree that the terms of this proposal, the attached fee schedule and the terms and conditions set forth in the attached Work Authorization and Agreement form shall govern all the services performed.
