height on 19.39-acre site located in the M -2 (Heavy Industrial) Zone. (City Council File Index No. DAP24-0018)

BACKGROUND

At the request of the Planning Commission, staff ha s been reviewing Ecology Recycling / AIM existing operations, building permit approvals, and compliance with past City approvals dating back to September 19, 1986, because of complaints received by Planning Commission Members.

Staff made several presentations to the Planning Commission between July 25 to September 12, 2023, providing the Commission with a detail of the operations, conditions of approval, and permit status.

The Chair and Commission members requested more information regarding the status of compliance with previous approvals and code enforcement actions in order to respond to questions from the public and to address any ongoing non -compliance issues. The specific Zoning Code section that provides the authority for the Commission to review the zoning entitlements is in Title 18 (Zoning Code), Section 18.58.060 (CUPs) which states the following:

“The Planning Commission may periodically review any Conditional Use Permit or Minor Conditional Use Permit to ensure that it is being operated in a manner consistent with conditions of approval or in a manner which is not detrimental to the public health, safety or welfare, or materially injurious to properties in the vicinity. If, after review, the Commission deems that there is sufficient evidence to warrant a full examination, then a Public Hearing date shall be set.”

On September 12, 2023, the Planning Commission held their last zoning entitlement review of the existing metal shredding and recycling use at 785 East M Street. Concerns were heard from both the Planning Commission and residents of the adjacent residential neighborhood. The main concerns included:
• Hours of Operation from 5:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., Monday – Sunday, were the cause of complaints.
• Complaints related to Noise and Vibration were voiced in the dropping of steel plates when placed in rail cars at early hours of the day.
• Complaints about odors and more noise complaints taking place at 5:00 a.m. • Complaints about pile heights not conforming with maximum 16 -feet condition of approval.
• Complaints about noncompliance with Water Resources Board and other agency inspection requirements.
• Concerns that the project was not in compliance with previous Commission approvals.

The Planning Commission directed staff to set a public hearing for review and possible Modification and/or Revocation of the zoning entitlements based on several concerns voiced by the Commission and heard from the public as related to the operation of the business, compliance with City approved conditions of approval, and compliance with County, State and Federal inspections of the metal shredding and recycling facility. The Commission w as also in favor of holding a neighborhood meeting with the residents prior to the public hearing.

On October 4, 2023, Staff held a neighborhood meeting at San Salvador Church to discuss the Ecology Recycling Services/AIM Project. Attendees expressed several concerns similar to what was expressed during the Planning Commission review s that took place from July through September 2023.

After holding three public hearing meetings on the review of the metal shredding and recycling services, on March 26, 2024 the City of Colton Planning Commission approved Modification of Zoning Entitlements (Case No. DAP23 -0010) for Ecology Recycling Services / AIM (American Iron and Metal) C onditional Use Permit and Architectural and Site Plan Review pertaining to the existing metal shredding / recycling use and Variance to allow an 18 -feet high perimeter fence along the east side of the property on property measuring approximately 19.39 acres of land within the M-2 (Heavy Industrial) Zone.

The Commission made a motion and a second to approve Planning Commission Resolutions Nos. R -02-24 and R -04-24, at which time the Commission voted 4 -0-1 (Commissioner Escarcega was on an excused absence) approving the project. Attachment 1 includes Planning Commission adopted Minutes of the March 26, 2024, Planning Commission Meeting (Attachment 1). The representatives from Ecology Recycling Services agreed with all the new and modified conditions of approval, except for condition #11 relating to the storage of pile heights. The request from Ecology Recycling Services was to increase the pile height from 16 - feet to 35-feet. Attachment 2 includes the approved Resolutions for the project – Resolution No.

R-04-24 includes Condition of Approval No. 11 and Resolution R-02-24 approved the Variance for the fence height on the eastern boundary of the property.

On April 4, 2024, the applicant submitted an Appeal of Planning Commission’s denial only for changing Condition #11 from 16 -feet to 35 -feet. The appellants appeal letter is attached with their reason to increase the pile height (Attachment 3).

A summary of past City Council and Planning Commission actions is provided in Attachment 4.

ISSUES/ANALYSIS

The appeal relates to two conditions of approval of the metal shredding and recycling use at 785 East “M” Street and both of these areas were originally approved in 2006 . The amount of material processed per day was modified in 2013. The first area relates to Condition of Approval No. 11 related to restricting the volume of material to be processed on the project site to be 680 tons per day and then modified in 2013 to allow increase from 680 tons per day to allow an

1.1 Packet Pg. 10
Staff Report to the Mayor and City Council
Appeal of Modification of Zoning Entitlement - Ecology Recycling Services June 4, 2024

Page 4 ends

increase of the volume of materials to be processed to 1600 tons per day. T he second condition relates to Condition of Approval No. 12 addressing the maximum pile heights of 16 -feet for all materials processed or stored on the project site approved in 2006. However, the storage height was not changed in 2013 when the volume of materials processed on the project site was increased.

Staff has included each of the conditions of approval mentioned above as major basis for the appeal and for the City Council review.

2006 Conditions of Approval related to restrictions on material process in tons per day and restriction on stacking height – City Council Resolution No. R-85-06:
“11. The volume of material to be processed shall not exceed 680 tons per day (TPD).” “12. All materials to be processed or stored on the project site shall not exceed a stacking height of 16 feet.”
2013 Condition s of Approval related to increase in volume of material to be processed – Planning Commission Resolution No. R-09-13:
“4. This approval is for the increase of metal shredding operational capacity from 680 tons per day/17,680 tons per month to processed 1,600 tons per day./41,600 tons per month without increasing the volume of railroad transloading (transfer of goods from rail car to truck distribution).”
“10. All materials to be processed or stored on the project site shall not exceed a stacking height of 16-feet.”
2024 Condition of Approval condition related to stacking height. “11. Maximum Outside Storage Height. All Materials to be processed or stored at specific designated storage areas on the project site shall not exceed a stacking height of 16 feet.

Material storage piles shall not encroach into the Fire Access Roadways as required by Condition 16. (Originally under Miscellaneous, Condition #12 of R -85-06/D-55-01; under Planning Division Condition #10 of R-09-13/DAP-001-083).”

The appellant’s argument specifically references the relationship behind the original approval and the reason why the increase of the material storage height is necessary for business operations today.

The main reason for the appeal to increase the height from 16 -feet to 35-feet relates to the April 23, 2013 Planning Commission approval of Resolution R-09-13 to allow the volume of materials to be processed to be increased from 680 tons per day to 1,600 tons per day. However, the Planning Commission did not increase the restricted stacking height of 16-feet.

1.1 Packet Pg. 11

The Planning Commission considered the various documents, presentations, and analysis provided by Ecology Recycling Services. However, the Commission felt that the 16 -feet restriction should not be increased. The Commission members stated that i ncreasing the heights was aesthetically unattractive, and unnecessary because piles of material are continuously being shredded or moved daily by train or truck. The Commission felt that the daily materials removal from the site should not be increased and to keep the materials storage height at 16-feet.

The Appellant’s letter of appeal refers to the 2013 Planning Commission approval of the increase tons per day from 680 to 1,600 “ without a commensurate increase in the pile height, which should have increased to at least 37 -feet and 6-inches.” However, the request is to increase the pile height to 35-feet. Their letter of appeal provides visuals to further justify their reason for the appeal showing that the 35 -feet pile height storage increase would not be visible from various angles along east “M” Street. Staff has also attached copies of information provided to the Commission as related to the applicant’s February 13, 2024 plans/exhibits presented to the Planning Commission to increase the height of all the storage of materials processed by the metal shredding and recycling use (Attachment 5).

On May 7, 2024, the applicant requested a continuance of their appeal to address maximum pile height requirements from the Fire Code. The 2022 Fire Code Section 315.4.2 (Height) maximum height for outside storage is 20 -feet and pursuant to Section 315.4 (Outside Storage) piles must also be at least 10-feet from property lines. The current pile height is permitted at 16 feet subject to original City Conditions of Approval for the metal shredding use, which complies with the above-mentioned Fire Code.

If the City Council wishes to approve above 20 -feet, then the Fire Code (FC Section 104.10, Alternative Materials, Design and Methods of Construction and Equipment) allows the Fire Department staff to consider alternatives pursuant to a standard Fire Code Plan Review submission that will contain the specific details as to materials stored, area located, and height proposed, subject to review and approval by the Fire Marshal or designee. While there is a current condition of approval that addresses compliance with all City codes, staff suggests an additional condition of approval that specifically addresses the material pile height situation at the metal shredding site (Pursuant to FC Section 315.4.2):

“Combustible or noncombustible pile heights over 20 -feet in height shall require a Fire Plan Check Review for compliance with the recently adopted Fire Codes, subject to review and approval by the Fire Marshal or designee.”

If the City Council approves above 20 -feet pile height , as outlined in FC 315.4.2, the applicant will need to submit plans of the location of each pile proposed to be 35 -feet in height. The Fire staff or designee will then be reviewing the specific materials proposed in each pile storage, storage location, storage area, engineering analysis (seismic areas of review), and other requirements as part of a Fire Plan Check review for compliance with applicable Fire Code(s).

SECTION 1. Based on the entire record before the City Council and all written and oral evidence presented, and the findings made for the Modification of Conditional Use Permit in this Resolution, the City Council upholding the Planning Commission’s decision also hereby finds that:

1. That the proposed use is in accord with the General Plan, the objectives of this title, and the purposes of the zone in which the site is located; The proposed recycling facility project is consistent with the following General Plan Update Goals and Objective Policies:

A. General Plan Update Policy LU-3-2: “Retain industrial land for businesses that provide jobs for manufacturing and processing of goods, and that create local revenue sources.” The expanded facility has created approximately 100 jobs, of which 13 employees reside in the City of Colton. The proposed modifications to former zoning entitlements are found necessary to also create a safe, clean, and project reflective of past Planning Commission approvals, requiring immediate action pertaining to unpermitted construction areas on the site and immediate action to other operational improvements as conditioned herein.

B. General Plan Update Policy LU -11.3: “Increase and diversify local employment opportunities and retain and accommodate industrial development that is compatible with City Objectives for safety, environmental and visual quality, and employment and revenue generation.” The existing metal shredding use has improved the street frontage with new landscaping and a decorative block wall on top of a two feet high landscaped berm certainly improve the overall aesthetics of the East M Street frontage. However, the project remains to be incomplete with certain property improvements that will need to be completed to fully be compatible with the surrounding neighborhood. Therefore, the proposed Modifications to Conditional Use Permit approvals (C -5-86. D -55-01, DAP-000-794, DAP-000-999, DAP-0001-083, and DAP-001-227) are warranted and to be in accord with the General Plan.

2. That the proposed Use will not be detrimental to the public health, safety or welfare, or materially injurious to properties or improvements in the vicinity; The past expansion approvals of an existing recycling facility use will not be detrimental to the public health, safety or welfare or materially injurious to properties or improvements in the vicinity for the following reasons:

A. The proposed use hours of operation for the proposed business are being updated based on concerns of hours of operation by the residential neighborhood to the west of the subject site. This will improve keeping the adjacent neighborhood peace and quiet prior to 6:00 a.m. every morning and eliminating any work on Sunday as stipulated in Condition #12.

B. The proposed business is located in an area of the City that consists of a significant amount of industrial and open space resources resulting in the completion of perimeter landscaping and installation of perimeter walls and

fences with the objective in beautifying the area as originally approved in 2006.

C. Conditions have been updated and placed on the proposed use which will mitigate any potential impacts created by the use (i.e., Hours of operation, placement of buildings, screening/landscaping of site and prohibiting the use of certain high powered cutting tools ) and will ensure that the use does not negatively affect the surrounding residential neighborhood to the west and north side of the freeway with noise, odors and dust clouds created by the metal shredding operations as conditioned herein.

D. Staff have obtained a monthly tonnage report for the past two years to ensure the recycling facility does not exceed the monthly amount of tonnage to be processed. Currently the facility was approved with a maximum amount of 41,600 tons per month. The monthly tonnage reports from January 2023 to October of 2023 show 2,352 tons to 29,814 tons per month was recorded during this time period. Therefore, in compliance with the 41,600 tons per month approved in 2013.

E. All exterior lighting continues to remain in conformance with the lighting standards of the City (i.e., non-flashing and directed away so as to eliminate objectionable glare) in conformance with Chapters 18.40 and 18.42 of the Colton Municipal Code.

3. That the proposed use complies with each of the applicable provisions of this title; The applicants will be required to take immediate action pertaining to completion of previously zoning entitlement approvals, completion of permitting, and operate the business with new hours of operation and new reporting system in addressing concerns and complaints received in writing from the City or from the public.

SECTION 2. Based on the entire record before the City Council and all written and oral evidence presented, and the findings made for the Architectural and Site Plan Review this Resolutions upholding the Planning Commission’s decision, the City Council hereby finds that:

1. The provisions for vehicular parking and for vehicular and pedestrian circulation on the site, and onto adjacent public Right-of-Way will not create safety hazards; The Modification of the Architectural and Site Plan Reviews is warranted as the metal shredding and recycling facility remains incomplete and require Planning approval and Building Permits related to vehicular parking. All the conditions of approval herein require immediate attention to providing planning and building with plans to complete project development improvements as approved by the Planning Commission. A final report back to the Commission is also required of the status of project implementation as conditioned herein one year from the date of this approval.

3. 5. The exterior design of the buildings and structures will not be injurious or detrimental to the environmental or historic features of the immediate neighborhood in which the proposed development is located and will not cause irreparable damage to property in the neighborhood, to the City and to its citizens; the site is located in a Heavy Industrial Zone and the buildings/structures are appropriate for the approved use, subject to obtaining all approvals, permits, inspections for project full compliance with City approvals. There are no immediate historical features in the immediate location that will be impacted by the metal shredding and recycling use so long as all of the conditions of approval are met as stipulated herein.

STAFF REPORT

DATE: JUNE 4, 2024
TO: HONORABLE MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL MEMBERS
FROM: BILL SMITH, CITY MANAGER
PREPARED BY: HEIDI DURON, DEVELOPMENT SERVICES DIRECTOR SUBJECT: TIME AND PLACE FIXED TO CONSIDER PUBLIC HEARING TO

APPROVE AMENDMENT OF APPROVED BILLBOARD PUBLIC
BENEFIT AGREEMENT (FILE INDEX #DAP-001-425) FOR

OPERATION OF A PROPOSED OFF-PREMISES ADVERTISING

ELECTRONIC CHANGEABLE COPY (BILLBOARD) DOUBLE-

DRIVE (FILE INDEX #DAP24-0020) RESOLUTION NO. R-47-24.

RECOMMENDED ACTION

Staff recommends that the City Council take the following action:

A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF COLTON
APPROVING AN AMENDED (FILE INDEX #DAP-001-425) AND RESTATED PUBLIC

BENEFIT, DIGITAL BILLBOARD AND EXPIRED LAND USE SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT FOR PROPERTY LOCATED AT 2680 S. LA CADENA DRIVE (ASSESSOR PARCEL NO. 1167-111-19) (FILE INDEX #DAP24-0020)

BACKGROUND

The subject property is located at 2680 S. La Cadena Drive, at the northwest corner of Interstate 215 and Iowa Avenue. The site has been used as an adult nightclub for many years (Club 215).

In 1998, it was the subject of a lawsuit and consent decree that required the Owner to transition the adult use to another use on or before January 31, 2009. The consent decree permitted Club 215, which was at the time a non -conforming use, to operate on the subject property pursuant to an adult use development permi t through the expiration of the Consent Decree. When the

1.2 Packet Pg. 67

June 4, 2024

Page 2 ends

deadline for amortization of the adult use expired, the City did not exercise its right to terminate the adult use because it was in the process of revising its adult business regulations and zoning location standards. The City ultimately adopted amendments to the Colton Municipal Code adult business regulations in February of 2016. However, the City did not pursue enforcement of the Consent Decree until sometime in 2018.

At that time, the City negotiated an agreement with the Applicant that avoided additional litigation and allowed the Applicant to delay the removal of the adult use while they pursued redevelopment of the subject property. The agreement, termed a “PUBLIC BENEFIT, DIGITAL BILLBOARD AND EXPIRED LAND USE SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT” (“Billboard Agreement”) also required the Owner to:

1. Convert the adult club (Club 215) into a service station/mini mart; and

2. Remove the existing pole sign and construct a digital billboard sign on the subject property.

Upon issuance of construction permits, the Owners would shut down the adult club and begin constructing both the service station/mini -mart and the digital billboard. The Billboard Agreement also provided that upon completion of the billboard, the Owners would pay the City an annual fee of $100,000 (to be increased by CPI after each 5 -year anniversary) from the advertising revenues of the digital billboard.

COVID Pandemic
In March of 2020, a nationwide COVID pandemic was declared. The pandemic caused significant supply chain delays that affected compliance with the terms of the Billboard Agreement. Although the Billboard Agreement contained a timeline for completion of certain milestones, the timeline was disrupted due to the pandemic.

As the national pandemic began to ease in 2022 and 2023, the Council directed that staff and the City Attorney contact the Owners to amend the Billboard Agreement to update the timeline of actions to move up the closure of the adult night club. As part of those discussions, the Owner also requested certain amendments to the Billboard Agreement. While the amendments were being negotiated with the Owner, they moved forward to close the adult night club. That closure was verified by City staff last month and the language for the amendments has been finalized.

At a public hearing held on May 14, 2024, the Planning Commission of the City of Colton, by a 3-0-2 vote approved Resolution No. R -7-24 (Case Index Nos. DAP23 -0020) recommending to the City Council approval of Amended (File Index No. DAP -001-425) and Restated Public Benefit Digital Billboard and Expired Land Use Entitlement Agreement. (Attachment 1)

ISSUES/ANALYSIS

1.2 Packet Pg. 68
Staff Report to the Mayor and City Council
Club 215 Billboard Agreement - DAP24-0020
June 4, 2024

Page 3 ends

The Amended Agreement contains the following significant amendments:

1. Provisions to allow Owner to evaluate the billboard market conditions for a two - year period before he must construct the billboard.

2. Authority to transfer the rights to the billboard construction to a third party (currently the Billboard Agreement authorizes transfer to a family member only).

3. Provisions that acknowledge that the adult club has been closed and can no longer re-open.

4. Provisions that do not require construction of the mini mart /service station to construct the billboard.

5. A revised timeline that grants the Owner/Applicant 24 months to evaluate market conditions and construct the Digital Billboard.

As directed by the Planning Commission, staff and the City Attorney’s office evaluated and researched several options for mitigating excessive lighting/brightness issues from the Digital Billboard. Here is what we found:

1. Foot candles are the industry standard for measuring brightness.

2. Brightness measurements are conducted by placing sensors a certain distance away from the Digital Billboard and comparing the overall brightness to ambient lighting conditions.

3. The industry standard adopted by the Outdoor Advertising Association of America (and accepted by the California Department of Transportation) is 0.3 Foot Candles above ambient light conditions.

4. Excessive brightness/lighting issues occur when a Digital Billboard does not vary brightness in accordance with current ambient light conditions. In other words, the Digital Billboard maintains the same brightness levels whether it is daytime or nighttime.

Given these factors, and the difficulty the City may have in conducting its own measurements to determine compliance with brightness standards, the recommended condition simply requires the Owner to incorporate technology that automatically dims the lighting intensity according to ambient conditions. New Section 4.3 of the Amended Agreement provides:

Digital Billboard Lighting/Brightness . It is acknowledged that manufacturers have developed sophisticated software control systems for displays. These systems provide diagnostics that typically include monitoring electrical supply, status of the sign, automatic calibration of pixels, automatic dimming of light intensity, and temperature control. Automatic dimming systems detect ambient light levels and optimize the light

intensity to reduce brightness at night and increase the life of the displays. The Digital Billboard shall be provided with an ambient light sensor that automatically adjusts the brightness levels of the Digital Billboard based on ambient light conditions. Such sensor shall remain operational during the life of the Digital Billboard.

It is expected that incorporation of an ambient light sensor will adjust brightness levels at night so that they are reduced (in comparison with daytime brightness levels). In addition, such a sensor will reduce the amount of electricity required by the Digital Billboard. The Owner has agreed to incorporate this technology on this Digital Billboard. The final Amended Agreement is attached to the City Council Resolution. (Attachment 2)

FISCAL IMPACTS

The owner will be required to pay an annual mitigation fee reflecting the gross revenue generated by the Digital Billboard.

Section 1. The Planning Commission hereby recommends to the City Council approval of the Billboard Agreement attached hereto as Exhibit A.

Section 2. Based on the entire record before the Planning Commission and all written and oral evidence presented, the Planning Commission finds th e Billboard Agreement promotes the public health, safety and w elfare of the c ommunity since the Billboard Agreement provides the City with several significant benefits including, but not limited to, additional general fund revenues in the form of revenue sharing with the Billboard owner, removal of a nonconforming adult use and redevelopment of an existing older building and site.

Section 3 . B ased on the entire record before the Planning Commission, including all written and oral evidence presented, the Planning Commission hereby find s that the Billboard Agreement is consistent with the General Plan and general plan policies of the City of Colton , as described below:

A. General Plan Goal LU -3: "Ensure a strong and diversified economic base to provide for fiscal stability and sustainability." The proposed Billboard Agreement and sign will provide an attractive entry sign for the City of Colton and information to motorists about the services and retail opportunities available in Colton, with the intent of attracting new customers for local businesses.

B. General Plan Policy LU -9.8: "Diversify the types of commercial uses available in Colton to ensure the City's fiscal well -being. Create a balanced mix of restaurants and retail stores that offer a varied selection of dining and shopping opportunities." The proposed Billboard Agreement and Gateway Sign will promote the types of commercial uses which contribute to the City's fiscal wellbeing, and over time, result in the desired mix of restaurants and shopping opportunities.

Section 4. Based on the entire record before the Planning Commission , and all written and oral evidence presented, the Planning Commission finds that as part of the original approvals, the Planning Commission/City Council adopted a Negative Declaration pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and the CEQA Guidelines. Since the amendments to the Billboard Agreement do not propose any physical changes to the Billboard (sign), the prior Negative Declaration is still effective.

Section 5.. The Secretary shall certify the adoption of this Resolution.

PASSED, APPROVED AND ADOPTED this 14 day of May, 2024.

2 AMENDED AND RESTATED PUBLIC BENEFIT, DIGITAL BILLBOARD AND

EXPIRED LAND USE SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT

THIS AMENDED AND RESTATED PUBLIC BENEFIT, DIGITAL BILLBOARD AND EXPIRED LAND USE SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT (“Amended Agreement”) is entered into as of this ____ day of _________ , 2024 (the “Effective Date”), by and between the CITY OF COLTON, a California municipal corporation (the “City”), and TODD GIBBONEY (“Owner”). City and Owner are sometimes referred to in this Amended Agreement separately as a “Party” or collectively as the “Parties.”

RECITALS
A. Owner is the Owner of certain real property located at 2680 South La Cadena Drive in the City of Colton (“Site”). A legal description of the Site is attached hereto as Exhibit “A” and is incorporated herein by reference.

B. In March 1998, the City and the Owners entered into a consent decree in order to settle claims brought by Club 215 and its owners, Albert and Todd Gibboney (“Consent Decree”).

The consent decree permitted Club 215, which was at the time a non -conforming use, to operate on the Site pursuant to an adult use development permit through the expiration of the Consent Decree, on January 31, 2009. Club 215 also operated a non-conforming on premise sign shown on Exhibit “B” of this Amended Agreement.

C. When deadline for amortization of the adult use on the Site described in in the Consent Decree expired, the City did not exercise its right to terminate the adult use because it was in the process of revising its adult business regulations and zoning locat ion standards. The City ultimately adopted an amended and restated version of the portion of the Colton Municipal Code relating to adult business regulations in February of 2016.

D. On or about November 7, 2017, the City Council of the City of Colton adopted Ordinance No. O -08-17, which amended various portions of the Colton Municipal Code to establish regulations and provide for review and approval of off -premises signs (billboards), including gateway signs.

E. On or about November 28, 2017, Owner filed an applications for the following Development Approvals:

1. Billboard Public Benefit Agreement for operation of a proposed off-premise advertising electronic changeable copy (billboard) double -faced freestanding sign as a "gateway sign" for the south entry to the City on the Interstate 215 Freeway; (2) Conditional Use Permit for the establishment of the proposed "Gateway" sign with an overall height up to 55 feet, as measured from the street level right -of-way, and sign face areas up to 14 feet by 48 feet (672 square feet) each for a total cumulative sign area of up to 1,344 square feet; (3) Variance for deviation from sign standards which limit gateway signs to a maximum cumulative sign area of 1,200 square feet on the Site (collectively “Project” and/or “Development Approvals”) the location and design of the servic e station, convenience market and Digital Billboard is shown on Exhibit “C” and is incorporated herein by reference.

3 F. Pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), an initial study was prepared by the City to assess the environmental impacts of the Project. The initial study determined that the project would not create any significant adverse environmental impacts and a Negative Declaration was prepared
G. On May 28, 2019, the Colton Planning Commission conducted a duly noticed public hearing regarding the Project in accordance with the Development Code and adopted Resolution No. R -05-19 recommending that the City Council approve the Digital Billboard Agreement, based on current development standards, the location of the proposed Digital Billboard, and that the proposed Digital Billboard meet the findings contained in Section

18.50.120(A)(8) of the Development Code (“Original Agreement”).

H. On October 1, 2019, following a duly noticed public hearing, City's City Council adopted Resolution No. R -67-19 approving the Original Agreement dated January 9, 2020 after making the findings required in Section 18.50.120(A)(8), and authorizing City’s City Manager to execute the Original Agreement on behalf of the City.

I. On January 9, 2020, the City and Owner entered into the Original Agreement. The Original Agreement required the Owner to convert Club 215 into a service station/mini -mart and to remove the existing pole sign and construct a Digital Billboard on the site. Upon issuance of construction permits, the Owner would shut down the adult club and begin constructing both the service station/mini-mart and the Digital Billboard. The Original Agreement also provided that upon completion of the billboard, the Owner woul d pay the City an annual mitigation fee of $100,000 (to be increased by CPI after each 5-year anniversary) from the advertising revenues of the Digital Billboard.

J. Since January 9, 2020, the Original Agreement has been extended twice to accommodate the Owner to comply with the original timeline. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the timeline to complete certain milestones of the Original Agreement was delayed. These milestones included, among other things, (1) the issuance of the building permit for the conversion of the site to the proposed service s tation/mini-mart and the concurrent closure of Club 215; (2) the removal of the non -conforming signage and the commencemen t of installation and construction of the Digital Billboard upon the site; (3) the issuance of the certificate of occupancy for conversion of the site to the proposed service station/mini -mart; and (4) the completion and installation of the Digital Billboard following final inspection approval from the City Building Division (the “Milestones”).

K. On or around November 6, 2020, the Owner completed removal of the non - conforming sign.

L. Around 2022, the City contacted the Owner to amend the Original Agreement to update the Milestones timeline for the Project. The City was then informed that the Owner was willing to revise the Milestones timeline but was undergoing a dispute with the proposed developer of the service station/mini-mart.

M. In June 2022, the City sent a notice of breach and demand for cure on the Original Agreement to the Owner. The Parties were unfortunately unable to revise an updated Milestones

4 timeline. In response, the City, on its own volition, prepared an updated Milestones timeline in December 2022. However, since December 2022, the Parties have not been able to amend an updated Milestones timeline to allow for the timely commencement of the Project that fits the City’s criteria.

N. In 2023, the City was informed that th e Owner terminated his agreement with the proposed developer of the service station/mini-mart. However, it was unclear whether the Owner had sought a new proposed developer.

O. In August 2023, the City sent a notice to the Owner to perform on the Original Agreement. The Owner re sponded in October 2023 with a revised Milestones Timeline. As a result of the further discussions with the Owner, the Parties have decided to amend the Original Agreement once more to accommodate for the revised Milestones timeline demonstrated in the Owner’s October 2023 written corre spondence, delete references to construction of a mini -mart use on the property, and to confirm Owner’s assurances that the nonconforming adult use club on the property will cease to operate.

P. City Council has found this Amended Agreement provides the City with certain public benefits that are in the best public interest of City and its residents, entry into this Amended Agreement constitutes a present exercise of City’s police power, and this Amended Agreement is consistent with City’s General Plan and Development Code. The City Council has made the following findings:

1. The Amended Agreement is consistent with the goals, objectives, purposes and provisions of the City’s General Plan and Development Code.

2. The Digital Billboard is compatible with the uses and structures on the Site and in the surrounding area;

3. The Digital Billboard will not create a traffic or safety problem, including problems associated with on-site access, circulation, or visibility;

4. The Digital Billboard will not otherwise result in a threat to the general health, safety and welfare of City residents; and

5. The Digital Billboard, in addition to its aesthetic treatment, provides public benefits that would not otherwise accrue to the public in the absence of its installation. As an additional material consideration for City's approval of this Amended Agreement, Owner has agreed to provide certain public benefits, as set forth in this Amended Agreement, and to pay the Processing Fees and Annual Mitigation Fee (each as hereinafter defined), as set forth in Section 7 of this Amended Agreement.

Q. City and Owner desire to enter into this Amended Agreement to memorialize the terms and conditions upon which Owner may undertake the Billboard portion of the Project.

ANNUAL MITIGATION FEE
Owner and City agree that an annual fee paid by Owner to City would help mitigate the aesthetic, visual, cultural, economic, and other impacts of the Project on City and the surrounding community, because that fee will provide City resources to fund the provision and maintenance of other aesthetic improvements, cultural events and other public benefits in the City. The Parties therefore agree that Commencing 90 days after completion of Construction of the Digital Billboard, Owner shall pay City an Annual Mitigation Fee (Fee Commencement Date). The Annual Mitigation Fee shall commence at a rate of one hundred thousand dollars ($100 ,000) or thirty percent (30%) of gross revenue, whichever is greater and, except for the first year, shall be paid on each anniversary of the Fee Commencement Date throughout the term of this Agreement and any subsequent extensions. The amount of the Annual Mitigation Fee shall be increased yearly by a percentage equal to the percentage increase in the Consumer Price Index for all Urban Consumers (All Items) in the Los Angeles Area as de termined by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics over the preceding year and shall subject to the renegotiation provisions of Section 7.3.

For purposes of this section, “gross revenue” means all gross advertising revenue amounts actually received by Owner from the sale of media placed or displayed upon the Digital Billboard during the Term, without exclusions or set off.

The owner shall be required to file a Federal Income Tax (Schedule C) solely for the Digital Billboard and provide a copy to the city concurrently with payment of the annual mitigation fee reflecting the gross revenue generated by the Digital Billboard.

The Annual Mitigation Fee will be evenly distributed between each Digital Face of the Digital Billboard (north and south).

DATE: JUNE 4, 2024
TO: HONORABLE MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL MEMBERS
FROM: BILL SMITH, CITY MANAGER
PREPARED BY: BRIAN DICKINSON, PUBLIC WORKS DIRECTOR
SUBJECT: AWARD A CONTRACT TO DM CONTRACTING, INC. FOR THE FIRE STATION 212 DRIVEWAY REPLACEMENT PROJECT.

RECOMMENDED ACTION

Staff recommends that the City Council take the following action:

1. Approve a contract with DM Contracting, Inc. for the Fire Station 212 Driveway Replacement Project for $64,500.00; and,

2. Authorize the City Manager to execute the contract with DM Contracting, Inc.

BACKGROUND

Fire Station 212 was built in 1957. The existing driveway was constructed with the original building. The Fire Station driveway has experienced standard wear and tear over the years in addition to sustained increased fire truck apparatus weights over time. The driveway is currently cracked, chipped, and broken, which requires removal and replacement.

ISSUES/ANALYSIS

In accordance with Colton Municipal Code (CMC) Section 3.08.120, the City Public Works Building Maintenance Supervisor distributed a notice inviting informal bids from multiple known local vendors for the Fire Station 212 Driveway Replacement Project. All bids received came in over $50,000 and are listed from lowest dollar amount to highest dollar amount as follows:

Although Norfolk’s bid appeared to come in as the lowest amount compared to the other bids, after review of the bid tabulation, mathematical errors were found in their calculation which did not ultimately place them as the lowest responsible bidder. As such, the Building Maintenance Supervisor recommends moving forward to award a maintenance services contract to the actual lowest responsible bidder, DM Contracting, Inc.

FISCAL IMPACTS

The total contract amount is $64,500.00. Sufficient appropriations for the Fire Station 212 Driveway Replacement Project are included in the adopted FY2023 -24 budget in the following Accounts:

RECOMMENDED ACTION

Staff recommends that the City Council take the following action:

2. Authorize the City Manager to execute the agreement.

BACKGROUND

Montecito Reservoir is a 3-million-gallon welded steel tank . The Reservoir is located approximately ¼ mile east of Reche Canyon Rd and serves the Reche Canyon 1 and 2 Pressure Zones. The water reservoir was originally constructed in 1985.

The rehabilitation of the Montecito Reservoir is recommended pursuant to the City of Colton ’s 2016 Water Master Plan to meet a portion of the City’s anticipated water requirements on Reche Canyon I pressure zone over the next ten to twenty years. Based on the inspection report that was prepared by Blue Locker Diving, the tank has major damage and corrosion on the interior structure and the exterior walls paint due to age. The rehabilitation of this reservoir is an essential component to maintain the required level of service to the City’s existing and future developments and residents.

STAFF REPORT

DATE: JUNE 4, 2024
TO: HONORABLE MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL MEMBERS
FROM: BILL SMITH, CITY MANAGER
PREPARED BY: BRIAN DICKINSON, PUBLIC WORKS DIRECTOR
SUBJECT: APPROVE RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING THE ANNUAL

ANTICIPATED DBE PARTICIPATION LEVEL (AADPL) FOR
FEDERAL FISCAL YEAR 2024/2025, RESOLUTION R-44-24.

RECOMMENDED ACTION

Staff recommends that the City Council take the following action:

Approve Resolution No. R -44-24 (Exhibit A) authorizing the Federal Fiscal Year 2024/2025 Annual Anticipated Disadvantaged Business Enterprise (DBE) Participation Level (AADPL) of

15.0 % and the methodology that is presented herein, and authorize the City Manager or his Designee to execute the DBE Annual Submittal Forms.

BACKGROUND

In 1984, City Council first adopted the Disadvantaged Business Enterprise (DBE) Program as required by 49 CFR Part 26. The program defines disadvantaged businesses and percentage goals for federally funded or assisted public works contracts to be awarded each year. The California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) has been entrusted with local agency oversight responsibility for DBE implementation since 1999, and as such, has the responsibility of overseeing Colton’s DBE Program. The DBE Program is intended to remedy past and current discrimination against DBEs, ensure a level playing field, and foster equal opportunity in federal-aid contracts.

On June 29, 2012, California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) announced that the U.S.

Department of Transportation (US DOT) has informed Caltrans that the Disadvantaged Business Enterprise (DBE) program waiver granted on August 7, 2008, has been rescinded. That waiver allowed race-conscious (RC) contract goals to be limited to African Americans, Asian Pacific Americans, Native Americans, and Women. With rescission of the waiver, contract goals for 9 Packet Pg. 318
Staff Report to the Mayor and City Council
DBE Participation Level - Federal Fiscal Year 2024/2025 June 4, 2024

Page 2 ends

federally funded projects authorized on and after July 1, 2012, must include all DBE groups (African Americans, Asian Pacific American, Native American, Women, Hispanic American, and Subcontinent Asian American and any other groups whose members are certified as socially and economically disadvantaged). This is referred to as the New RC DBE Program.

ISSUES/ANALYSIS

On May 19, 2009, the City Council approved the Race-Conscious Implementation agreement with Caltrans. The agreement requires annual submittal of AADPL calculation and methodology to Caltrans. The DBE methodology and calculation utilized to determine the AADPL together with the DBE implementation agreement, and the American with Disabilities Act (ADA) annual certification form are attached as exhibit to Resolution No. R-44-24.

Public Works staff identified three (3) federally-funded transportation projects that are expected to be awarded for construction phase during the 2024/2025 Federal Fiscal Year (October 1, 2024 to September 30, 2025). These projects with the estimated construction phase cost are as follows:

1. La Cadena Drive (over Santa Ana River) Bridge Replacement Project - $27,218,200

2. Mt. Vernon Ave. over UPRR Bridge Widening Project - $22,954,000

3. Barton Road Bridge Removal Project - $2,444,700

To calculate the New RC DBE, the total number of DBEs within each project’s market area from the Caltrans DBE database is compared to the total number of businesses (DBE and non-DBE) performing the same services based on information from the US Census Bureau database (2021 County Business Patterns). The market areas vary by project and were selected by determining the location of the bidders for similar projects within the past several years. Using the projects’ race-conscious percentage, a weighted average was calculated to determine the City of Colton’s AADPL for Federal Fiscal Year 2024/2025. The results of the calculations are as follows:

AADPL = New Race-Conscious DBEs = 15.0 %

After the City Council approval, the Fiscal Year 2024/2025 AADPL and methodology will be submitted to Caltrans. The City will use every opportunity to implement good faith effort to meet the New RC DBE goal of 15.0% for projects with federal funding.

FISCAL IMPACTS

There is no fiscal impact associated with this recommendation. However if the DBE goal is not approved, the City may become ineligible for federal grants obtained to date and any future federal grant funding application. An approved DBE goal is also necessary for project authorization and reimbursement of any projects with federal funding.

CALIFORNIA DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION (CALTRANS)

DISADVANTAGED BUSINESS ENTERPRISE (DBE) IMPLEMENTATION AGREEMENT For the City of ____Colton___________________, hereinafter referred to as “SUB-RECIPIENT.” I. Definition of Terms
The terms used in this agreement have the meanings defined in 49 CFR 26.5.

I
I. Objective/Policy Statement (49 CFR 26.1 and 26.23)
SUB-RECIPIENT intends to receive federal financial assistance from the U. S. Department of Transportation (DOT) through the California Department of Transportation (Caltrans), and as a
c
ondition of receiving this assistance, SUB-RECIPIENT will sign the California Department of Transportation Disadvantaged Business Enterprise Implementation Agreement (hereinafter referred to as Agreement). SUB-RECIPIENT agrees to implement the State of California, Department of Transportation Disadvantaged Business Enterprise (DBE) Program Plan (hereinafter referred to as the DBE Program Plan) as it pertains to Local Agencies. The DBE Program Plan is based on U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT), 49 CFR 26 requirements.

It is the policy of SUB-RECIPIENT to ensure that DBEs, as defined in 49 CFR 26, have an equal opportunity to receive and participate in DOT-assisted contracts. It is also SUB- RECIPIENT’s policy:
• To ensure nondiscrimination in the award and administration of DOT-assisted contracts. • To create a level playing field on which DBE’s can compete fairly for DOT-assist ed
c
ontracts.
• To ensure that the DBE participation percentage is narrowly tailored, in accordance with appl
icable law.
• To ensure that only firms that fully meet 49 CFR 26 eligibility standards are permitted to participate as DBEs.
• To help remove barriers to the participation of DBEs in Federal-aid contracts. • To assist the development of firms that can compete successfully in the market plac e
out
side the DBE Program.

II
I. Nondiscrimination (49 CFR 26.7)
SUB-RECIPIENT will never exclude any person from participation in, deny any person the benefits of, or otherwise discriminate against anyone in connection with the award and per
formance of any contract covered by 49 CFR 26 on the basis of race, color, sex, or national origin. In administering the Local Agency components of the DBE Program Plan, SUB- RECIPIENT will not, directly, or through contractual or other arrangements, use criteria or methods of administration that have the effect of defeating or substantially impairing accomplishment of the objectives of the DBE Program Plan with respect to individuals of a particular race, color, sex, or national origin.

V. Annual DBE Submittal Form (49 CFR 26.21)
SUB-RECIPIENT will provide to the Caltrans District Local Assistance Engineer (DLAE) a completed Local Agency DBE Annual Submittal Form (Exhibit 9-B), by June 30 of each year for the following Federal Fiscal Year (FFY). This form must include the name, phone number, email address of the designated Disadvantaged Business Enterprise Liaison Officer (DBELO), and the c
hoice of Prompt Pay Provision to be used by SUB-RECIPIENT for the following FFY.

V. R
ace-Neutral Means of Meeting Caltrans Overall Statewide Annual DBE Goal (49 CFR

26.51(a))
Caltrans expects SUB-RECIPIENT to meet the maximum feasible portion of Caltrans Overall Statewide Annual DBE Goal through race-neutral means of facilitating DBE participation. Race- neutral DBE participation includes when a DBE wins a prime contract through customary competitive procurement procedures, is awarded a subcontract on a prime contract that does not carry a DBE goal, or even if there is a DBE goal, wins a subcontract from a prime contractor that did not consider its DBE status in making the award (e.g., a prime contractor that uses a
s
trict low-bid system to award subcontracts). Race-neutral means include, but are not limited to, the following:

1. Arranging solicitations, times for the presentation of bids, quantities, specifications, and delivery schedules in ways that facilitate the participation of DBE and other small businesses (e.g., unbundling large contracts to make them more accessible to small businesses, requiring or encouraging prime contractors to subcontract portions of work that they might otherwise perform with their own forces);

2. Providing assistance in overcoming limitations such as inability to obtain bonding or financing (e.g., by such means as simplifying the bonding process, reducing bondi ng
r
equirements, eliminating the impact of surety costs from bids, and providing services to help DBEs and other small businesses obtain bonding and financing);

3. Providing technical assistance and other services;

4. Carrying out information and communication programs on contracting procedures and specific contract opportunities (e.g., ensuring the inclusion of DBEs and other small businesses on SUB-RECIPIENT mailing lists of bidders; ensuring the dissemination t o
bi
dders on prime contracts of lists of potential subcontractors; provision of information in languages other than English, where appropriate);

5. Implementing a supportive services program to develop and improve immediate and l
ong-term business management, record keeping, and financial and accounting c
apability for DBEs and other small businesses;

6. Providing services to help DBEs and other small businesses improve long-term dev
elopment, increase opportunities to participate in a variety of types of work, handle i
ncreasingly significant projects, and achieve eventual self-sufficiency;

7. Establishing a program to assist new, start-up firms, particularly in fields in which DBE participation has historically been low;

8. Ensuring distribution of your DBE directory through print and electronic means to the widest feasible universe of potential prime contractors; and

This information will be updated annually and included on the DBE Annual Submittal Form.

The DBELO

Attachment: Exhibit A - Resolution FY 24-25 DBE (4533 : DBE Participation Level - Federal Fiscal Year 2024/2025) Methodology
The process for establishing the Annual Anticipated DBE Participation Level (AADPL) was derived from data gathered from the U.S. Census Bureau - 2021 County Business Patterns (NAICS) and California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) Civil Rights Program. The data was gathered based upon four counties in which City of Colton lies and neighbors. These four counties include Los Angeles, Orange, Riverside, and San Bernardino, in the State of California.

The U.S. Census Bureau's Economic Census and the County Business Patterns contain all business and minority business data which are to be compiled as of the latest published version. For the purpose of calculating the City's overall D BE goal, we used these neighboring counties as the market area. Those jurisdictions and municipalities most closely reflect the same jurisdictions where businesses are located that typically participate in the bid process for DBE projects awarded by the City of Colton. Also, in researching the most reliable sources of data available to complete our calculations, it was discovered that the best data could be obtained for the jurisdictions and municipalities contained in these areas.

In order to establish the City of Colton's base figure reflecting the relative availability of DBEs in relation to all comparable firms available to participate in the City's DOT assisted and other federally funded contracts. T he City elected to use the Di rectory of Certified Firms with Census Bureau Data methodology. The strategy used to determine DBE availability involved a multi-step process. First, we identified the major work types (North American Industrial Classification System - NAICS) for the contr acts anticipated for award in the upcoming fiscal year. Second, using the United States Census Bureau's 2021 County' Business Patterns data, we identified the businesses located in the counties noted for which data was available and recorded the number of businesses found for each work type. This particular database was used because it contained the most recent information available for counting the number of businesses located in the jurisdiction for each work type. Then, using Caltrans' database of DBE firms, we queried DBE f irms for the appropriate NAICS codes and license type. Using that list, we identified the DBE firms ready, willing and able to perform services in our mar ket area. Projected DOT and Federally assisted contracts by work type and NAICS Code For FY 2024/2025 we took the dollar value of work related to each work type (from the chart of federal DB E projects anticipated for award for the fiscal year) and calculated the percentage of federal funds applicable to each work type. Then, using Caltrans' Directory of Certified firms, we determined the availability of DBE firms for each work type by dividing the number of DBEs in the directory by the number of firms found in the census bureau data for each work type. Using the same Caltrans directory, Disadvantage Business Enterprise ( DBE) Male firms (African Americans, Asian Pacific American, Native American , Hispanic American, and Subcontinent Asian American and any other groups whose members are certified as socially and economically disadvantaged ), and women owned firm were further set aside to calculate for the Race Neutral DBE. AADPL calculations for New Race Neutral DBEs are shown on the succeeding page.
