3.2.10.4 Other Provisions; Endorsements Preferred.

c. Award Notice Inviting Bids 25-039AT to Venture Construction & Management, the lowest responsive, responsible bidder, for the total bid amount of $488,635, and waive all minor irregularities in the bidding document as submitted by the said bidder.

Authorize the City Manager, or his designee, to execute the Construction Contract with Venture Construction & Management in the amount of $488,635, including any non-substantive extensions, change orders, purchase orders, and amendments up to the amount authorized by Corona Municipal Code Section

3.08.050(H) which is equivalent to 10% or $48,863.
e. Authorize an appropriation in the amount of $122,414 from Measure X Fund 120 to the City Hall Veterans Memorial Improvements Project, No. FC-2023-06.

BACKGROUND & HISTORY:

The current City of Corona Veterans Memorial is located at the south side of City Hall.

On November 10, 2021, the Committee of the Whole (COTW) directed City staff to proceed with an enhancement project including granite monuments, taller flag poles, lighting, signage, landscaping, and seating. After a request for proposals process, the City executed an agreement and purchase order with IDS Group, Inc. in accordance with Corona Municipal Code (CMC) Section 3.08.070.

Three design concepts were developed and presented to the City Council for consideration at the July 19, 2023, meeting. Staff received direction to obtain feedback from the Corona veterans community and released online and printed surveys to collect input. The survey results were presented to the City Council on December 6, 2023, along with a recommendation to proceed with the Option B “Honor and Glory” design with a few modifications, including removing the free-standing archways adjacent to the memorial.

The Project was first advertised for bids on September 30, 2024, pursuant to CMC section

3.08.090, Public projects - formal bidding procedure, and the City’s purchasing policy through the City’s PlanetBids bidding portal. On November 7, 2024, four (4) bids were received through the PlanetBids bidding service. The lowest responsive, responsible bidder was determined to be David Ollis Landscape Development, Inc., and a contract was awarded at the City Council meeting on December 4, 2024.

City staff proceeded to send a Notice of Award to obtain the various required documents, including bonds and insurance, from David Ollis Landscape Development. However, after several attempts, David Ollis Landscape Development was not able to provide all of the insurance policies as required by the bid and contract documents. As a result, staff requests that the City Council find that David Ollis Landscape Development, Inc. failed to provide these documents and deem the contractor non-responsive. Unfortunately, staff

Page 324 of 492 ends

also discovered issues with the bid documents, and thus, all other bids received needed to be rejected, and the project needed to be re-bid.

ANALYSIS:

The Project was re-advertised for bids on February 7, 2025, in the Sentinel Weekly, and the project was posted on the City’s PlanetBids website on January 30, 2025, pursuant to CMC section 3.08.090, Public projects - formal bidding procedure, and the City’s purchasing policy. A total of 380 registered vendors with the City of Corona were notified of the project, 30 prime contractors registered as prospective bidders, and six potential bidders attended a non-mandatory pre-bid job walk on February 11, 2025. On March 13, 2025, four (4) bids were received through the PlanetBids bidding service.

No. Contractor Location Bid Total
1 Venture Construction & Management Corona, CA $488,635 2 Elegant Construction Inc. Irvine, CA $699,550
3 US Builders and Consultants Irvine, CA $945,400
4 RG General Engineering Inc. Norco, CA $1,015,459
Staff has reviewed all bids and recommends awarding the contract to Venture Construction & Management as the lowest responsive, responsible bidder based on the Bid Schedule for a total contract amount of $488,635. City staff has reviewed and verified all licenses and documents for Venture Construction & Management, and all other documentation is in order.

FINANCIAL IMPACT:

This project is currently funded by Measure X Fund 120, with a balance of $507,976.

Upon City Council approval of the appropriation, funding to complete the construction and inspection of the City Hall Veterans Memorial Improvement Project will be available in the Capital Improvement Project No. FC-2023-06.

The estimated construction costs for the project are outlined as follows:

ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS:

The City Hall Veterans Memorial Improvement project action is categorically exempt pursuant to Section 15301 of the Guidelines for the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), which states that the operation, repair, maintenance, permitting, leasing, licensing, or minor alteration of existing public or private structures, facilities, mechanical equipment, or topographical features, involving negligible or no expansion of use beyond that existing at the time of the CEQA determination and is therefore exempt from CEQA.

Therefore, no environmental analysis is required and staff has filed a Notice of Exemption with the County of Riverside.

REQUEST FOR CITY COUNCIL AND

CORONA UTILITY AUTHORITY ACTION
SUBJECT:

UPDATE ON CONTRACTED EMERGENCY TRANSMISSION WATER MAIN AND PARKING LOT REPAIRS AT 515 SOUTH PROMENADE AVENUE PURSUANT TO CORONA MUNICIPAL CODE SECTION 3.08.130(A)
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:

This staff report provides the City Council with an update, pursuant to Corona Municipal Code Section 3.08.130(A), on the contracted emergency repairs related to the transmission water main line break that occurred at 515 South Promenade Avenue on March 6, 2025.

RECOMMENDED ACTION:

That the City Council receive and file the update to contracted emergency transmission water main line and parking lot repairs at 515 South Promenade Avenue.

That the Corona Utility Authority review, ratify, and to the extent necessary, direct the City Council to take the above actions.

Page 332 of 492 ends

BACKGROUND & HISTORY:

On March 6, 2025, at approximately 4:00 p.m., the City of Corona Utilities Department responded to a water main break. A thirty-inch diameter transmission water main line at South Promenade Avenue, south of Sampson Avenue, experienced a significant failure.

The thirty-inch cross-town transmission water main provides water to the Home Gardens and Zone 2 service areas.

On March 19, 2025, the City Council was formally notified of the contracted emergency repairs related to the transmission water main line break on South Promenade Avenue, pursuant to Corona Municipal Code (CMC) Section 3.08.130(A).

ANALYSIS:

The water main line break caused significant damage to the parking lot at 515 South Promenade. The Utilities Department (UD) solicited informal bidding from four qualified contractors experienced in asphalt and concrete repairs and received three bids, as shown below.

CT&T Concrete Paving, Inc., is tentatively scheduled to begin the parking lot restoration to minimize the adverse impact on the business.

Staff will request the ratification of the Maintenance/General Services Agreement with CT&T Concrete Paving, Inc. for $95,243.54 at a future City Council meeting with the related cost incurred for the repair of the watermain, remediation and restoration which will include detailed cost information for labor, materials, and equipment.

BASIS FOR EXCEPTION TO COMPETITIVE BIDDING:

Staff believes that an exception to competitive bidding was warranted for this action pursuant to Corona Municipal Code Section 3.08.130(A), which states as follows:
(A) Emergencies. In situations determined by the City Manager to constitute an emergency for a public project pursuant to § 22035 of the Act and Cal. Public Contract Code § 22050. The City Council hereby delegates to the City Manager the power to declare a public emergency and take any directly related and immediate action required by the emergency, up to a total of $175,000, pursuant to § 22035 of the Act and Cal. Public Contract Code § 22050. Emergency expenditures of more than $175,000 shall first be approved by the City Council. Work shall be performed without the benefit of competitive bidding, either formal or informal, only so long as necessary under those sections.

Vendor City Bid Amount
CT&T Concrete Paving, Inc. Diamond Bar, CA $95,243.54
A&Y Asphalt Contractors, Inc. Norco, CA $123,077
TSR Construction Rancho Cucamonga, CA $123,508
Hardy and Harper, Inc Lake Forest, CA No bid received

Page 333 of 492 ends

For projects of more than $45,000, a report on the emergency and work performed shall be provided at the next regular meeting of the City Council, and then at every meeting thereafter required by § 22050. At such meetings, the City Council shall determine, by a four-fifths vote, that there is a need to continue the action without the benefit of informal or formal competitive bidding in accordance with § 22035 of the Act and Cal. Public Contract Code § 22050. The City Council shall terminate the emergency action at the earliest possible date that conditions warrant, so that the remainder of the emergency action may be completed pursuant to a formal bidding procedure.

Staff believes the restoration of the parking lot meets the definition of an emergency, as the immediate repair of the asphalt and concrete at 515 South Promenade Avenue is essential to limit the impact on the business.

FINANCIAL IMPACT:

Funding for the recommended action is available in the Waterline Infrastructure Operating and Maintenance Project No. 71930 within the Water Utility Fund 570.

ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS:

This action is categorically exempt pursuant to Section 15302 (c) of the Guidelines for the California Environmental Quality Action (CEQA), which states that “operation, repair, maintenance, permitting, leasing, licensing, or minor alteration of existing public or private structures, facilities, mechanical equipment, or topographical features, involving negligible or no expansion of use beyond that existing at the time of the CEQA determination” and is therefore exempt from CEQA. This action involves repairs to existing infrastructure to maintain public health and safety. Therefore, is exempt from the requirements of CEQA, and no environmental analysis is required.

16.35.040(C), the City shall establish a dwelling unit occupancy factor according to the latest U.S. Census in determining the amount of parkland to be dedicated for each residential subdivision. The latest dwelling unit occupancy factor shall be established by resolution, which is the reason for this request.

RECOMMENDED ACTION:

Page 335 of 492 ends

That the City Council approve Resolution 2025-017 establishing the dwelling unit occupancy factor based upon the 2020 U.S. Census data for determining the amount of parkland to be dedicated pursuant to Chapter 16.35 of the Corona Municipal Code.

BACKGROUND & HISTORY:

CMC Chapter 16.35 implements the Quimby Act for residential subdivisions. To determine the amount of parkland to be dedicated, the City uses the formula described in CMC Section 16.35.040(D), which is the number of housing units in the subdivision by the occupancy factor for each housing type by the number of acres of park area per 1,000 residents. The City requires three acres of park area per 1,000 residents according to CMC Section 16.35.040(B). Therefore, the formula is represented as follows:
(# of dwelling units) x (occupancy factor) x (.003) = park area to be dedicated The occupancy factor is based on the latest U.S. Census. The latest U.S. Census was done in 2020. Since that time, the City has not adopted an occupancy factor based on the latest census data. According to the 2020 U.S. Census, Corona’s average person per household for a housing unit, which consists of a house, apartment and mobile home, is 3.28 persons.

ANALYSIS:

Resolution 2025-017 will establish the dwelling unit occupancy factor of 3.28 persons per household for determining the amount of land that is to be dedicated for parkland. The dwelling unit occupancy factor will be used for residential subdivisions that are physically providing parkland as part of the development. The latest occupancy factor does not affect the fee in lieu of parkland dedication according to the City’s adopted Development Impact Fee schedule, which is $12,708 per residential dwelling unit within a residential subdivision.

FINANCIAL IMPACT:

The adoption of this resolution does not have a financial impact on the city.

ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS:

This action is exempt pursuant to Section 15061(b)(3) of the Guidelines for the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), which states that a project is exempt from the CEQA if the activity is covered by the commonsense exemption that CEQA applies only to projects that have the potential for causing a significant effect on the environment. Where it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the activity in question may have a significant effect on the environment, the activity is not subject to CEQA. The approval of this resolution establishing the dwelling unit occupancy factor according to the latest U.S. Census will not have a significant effect on the environment. Therefore, no environmental analysis is required.

REQUEST FOR CITY COUNCIL ACTION
SUBJECT:

FIRST AMENDMENT TO THE MAINTENANCE/GENERAL SERVICES AGREEMENT WITH NATIONAL CONSRUCTION RENTALS, INC. TO INCREASE THE COMPENSATION BY $75,000 FOR A TOTAL COMPENSATION OF $175,000 FOR FISCAL YEAR ENDING JUNE 30, 2025
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:

This staff report asks the City Council to approve the First Amendment to the Maintenance/General Service Agreement with National Construction Rentals, Inc., which would increase compensation by $75,000 to $175,000 for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2025.

RECOMMENDED ACTION:

That the City Council:
a. Approve the First Amendment to the Maintenance/General Services Agreement with National Construction Rentals, Inc. to increase the compensation by $75,000 for total compensation of $175,000 for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2025.
b. Authorize the City Manager, or his designee, to execute the First Amendment to the Maintenance/General Services Agreement with National Construction

Page 341 of 492 ends

Rentals, Inc. for total compensation of $175,000 for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2025.
c. Authorize the City Manager, or his designee, to issue a change order to Purchase Order B250278 to National Construction Rentals, Inc. in the amount of $75,000 for a total purchase order amount of $175,000.

BACKGROUND & HISTORY:

The City of Corona utilizes professional contractual services for on-call temporary fencing and portable potty services throughout its city facilities and parks. These contractual services supply the equipment and materials needed to conduct this work safely and effectively. National Construction Rentals, Inc. currently supplies the city with these services for special events, including the Fourth of July, Summer Concerts, and Holiday Lighting, as well as maintenance-related activities such as annual field renovations.

The City operates parks and facilities throughout Corona. The Community Services Department, in conjunction with the Purchasing Division, is preparing the necessary documents to competitively bid for these services for Fiscal Year (FY) 2026 and enter into a multi-year agreement. The need for these services continues to grow with the expansion of special events throughout the year, enhanced field maintenance services, and closing of fields for rest times.

ANALYSIS:

A purchase order for National Construction Rentals, Inc. was initially issued with an Exception to Bid Memo (ETB) in the amount of $45,000 and was later increased by $55,000 for a total of $100,000 for FY 2025. Due to additional services related to securing properties at the South Mall, field renovations, and other city projects, the Community Services Department is requesting to increase the purchase order to $175,000 for FY 2025.

FINANCIAL IMPACT:

Funding for the recommended actions is available in the Community Services Department’s operating budget.

ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS:

This action is exempt pursuant to Section 15061(b)(3) of the Guidelines for the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), which states that a project is exempt from CEQA if the activity is covered by the commonsense exemption that CEQA applies only to projects that have the potential for causing a significant effect on the environment. Where it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the activity in question may have a significant effect on the environment, the activity is not subject to CEQA. This action is to approve a Maintenance and General Services Agreement for temporary fencing and portable potty services, and there is no possibility that approving this agreement will have a significant effect on the environment. Therefore, no environmental analysis is required.

REQUEST FOR CITY COUNCIL ACTION

SUBJECT

PUBLIC HEARING FOR CITY COUNCIL CONSIDERATION AND APPROVAL OF AMENDMENT NO. 1 TO THE 2024-2025 AND 2022-2023 ACTION PLANS OF THE

DEPARTMENT OF HOUSING AND URBAN DEVELOPMENT (HUD) CONSOLIDATED PLAN
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:

The staff report asks the City Council to approve a substantial amendment to the 2024- 2025 and 2022-2023 Action Plans of the HUD Consolidated Plan to cancel an activity (Program Year 2024 Victoria Park Community Center Park Improvements Project Phase III) and transfer the funds to an existing project (Program Year 2022 Victoria Park Improvements Phase I—Splash Pad).

RECOMMENDED ACTION:

That the City Council:
a. Conduct a public hearing to receive comments concerning Amendment No. 1 to Program Year 2024-2025 HUD and Program Year 2022-2023 Action Plans of the HUD Consolidated Plan.
b. Approve Amendment No. 1 to the Program Years 2024-2025 and 2022-2023 Action Plans of the HUD Consolidate Plan to cancel an activity (Program Year

Page 348 of 492 ends

2024 Victoria Park Community Center Park Improvements Project Phase III) and to transfer the funds to an existing project (Program Year 2022 Victoria Park Improvements Phase I - Splash Pad) in excess of 50% of the project’s original budget.
c. Authorize the City Manager, or his designee, to prepare and process all necessary budgetary transactions to effectuate the changes in Amendment No. 1 for the Program Years 2024-2025 and 2022-2023 Action Plans.
d. Authorize the City Manager, or his designee, to negotiate, execute, and amend contracts with sub-recipients, developers, or professional service providers as necessary to implement CDBG funds under the approved projects identified in Amendment No. 1 to the Program Years 2024-2025 and 2022-2023. e. Authorize the City Manager, or his designee, to execute, amend, and submit all plans and documents necessary to administer the CDBG projects identified in Amendment No. 1 to the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development.

BACKGROUND & HISTORY:

The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development requires all entitlement communities receiving Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds, such as the City of Corona, to prepare and submit a HUD Consolidated Plan (Consolidated Plan) every five years to establish a unified, strategic vision for community development, housing and economic development actions. The Consolidated Plan encompasses the analysis of local community needs and coordinates appropriate responses to those needs and priorities. The Corona City Council adopted its Five-Year Consolidated Plan for 2020- 2024 on June 17, 2020.

The Consolidated Plan is carried out through Annual Action Plans (Action Plan), which provide a concise summary of the actions, activities, and specific federal and non-federal resources that will be used each year to address the priority needs and specific goals identified by the Consolidated Plan. The Corona City Council adopted the 2024-2025 Action Plan on June 5, 2024.

The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) requires all entitlement communities receiving Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds, such as the City of Corona, to prepare and submit a substantial amendment to the Action Plans, to provide residents with the opportunity to review proposed substantial changes to previously approved Action Plan(s), and to offer comments on those changes should there be substantial changes to the use of CDBG or HOME funds. Pursuant to the City of Corona Citizen Participation Plan adopted on June 3, 2020, a substantial amendment to an Annual Action Plan is required when a “substantial” change is proposed, which includes:

Page 349 of 492 ends

 Addition of a new project not previously identified in the Action Plan, without regard to funding source;
 The cancelation of an existing project identified in the Action Plan, without regard to funding source; or
• Changes in the use of CDBG funds from one eligible activity to another eligible activity meeting the following thresholds:
 A net increase or decrease greater than 50% of the activity allocation if the allocation is $50,000 or more as listed in a published Action Plan, or as amended;
 A net increase or decrease greater than 100% of the activity allocation if the allocation is less than $50,000 as listed in a published Action Plan or amended; or
 A net increase or decrease in an activity allocation greater than $300,000.

ANALYSIS:

After collaborating with the City’s Public Works and Community Services Departments, who are overseeing the construction of the Victoria Park Splashpad Park project, and reviewing project activity expenditures, it was determined that additional funding was needed for year one of the park plan projects to be completed. In support of the City’s 3- year park plan, staff have identified unused CDBG capital improvement funds from the program year 2024-2025 set aside for the Victoria Park Community Center Phase III improvements, which could be used to fill a gap for the additional funding needed in Phase I Victoria Park Splashpad.

The transfer of these funds will support the following objectives: 1) the completion of the Victoria Park Splashpad project without any additional allocation of City funds, 2) support timely expenditure of CDBG grant funds as required by HUD, and 3) cancel an activity.

The transfer of funds is more than 50% of the project’s original budget; therefore, the proposed Substantial Amendment also involves amending the 2022-2023 Action Plan.

To provide additional context for the proposed amendment, it is important to note that the City of Corona receives regular formula-based entitlement grants of CDBG funds through the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) each year.

On May 4, 2022, the Corona City Council approved the Program Year 2022-2023 Action Plan to specify the eligible CDBG activities and projects to be undertaken to address the community's needs through the use of the CDBG entitlement allocation. Specifically, the 2022-2023 Action Plan identified Phase I of the Park Projects Plan “Community Facilities and Infrastructure” project, with an allocated budget of $703,775.

On June 5, 2024, the Corona City Council approved the Program Year 2024-2025 Action Plan to specify the eligible CDBG activities and projects to be undertaken to address the community's needs through use of the CDBG entitlement allocation. Specifically, the 2024-2025 Action Plan identified Phase III of the Parks Projects Plan “Community Facilities and Infrastructure” project, with an allocated budget of $613,249. Due to

Page 350 of 492 ends

extenuating circumstances related to the Phase III Victoria Park Community Center project, this activity is no longer feasible.

Action Plan Amendment No. 1 to the Program Years 2024-2025 and 2022-2023 Action Plans reallocates funds between approved Community Development Block Grant projects. The City proposes to delete an activity (PY 2024 Park Improvements Project Phase III) and transfer the funds to an existing project (PY 2022 Victoria Park Improvements Phase I - Splash Pad) over 50% of the project’s original budget. This substantial amendment also involves amending the budgets for these two activities as identified in the table below:

$613,249 $0 (-$613,249)
PY 2022 Victoria Park
Improvements Phase I $703,775 $1,317,024 (+$613,249)
The proposed Amendment No. 1 also addresses a high-priority need and national objective as set out in the City’s 2020-2024 Consolidated Plan and HUD’s National Objectives. Subject to the program regulations set forth by HUD, CDBG funds will be used for the activities outlined below:

Program Year 2022 Victoria Park Improvements Phase I (Splash Pad Project):

CDBG funds support personnel (review of key project documentation and publication elements) and capital improvement costs (proofs of publication, construction costs, materials, and installation by an approved contractor). The installation will also include purchasing an ADA-compliant splash pad with several water features and designated play areas with multiple sprayers at Victoria Park. Funds will also cover the costs of materials and installation for multiple seating areas around the splash pad and accent lighting surrounding the splash pad. The splash pad will be in an open area within the park that is currently an open and unutilized grass area.

CITIZEN PARTICIPATION:

Notice of the availability of the draft Amendment No. 1 to the Program Year 2022-2023 Action Plan and Program Year 2024-2025 Action Plan was disseminated on the City website at www.CoronaCA.gov/CDBG and via other electronic means. Amendment No. 1 to the 2024-2025 Action Plan and 2022-2023 Action Plans were made available for public review online at www.CoronaCA.gov/CDBG from January 6, 2025, to April 2, 2025.

The public was advised of the public hearing and encouraged to submit comments via email to [email protected]

Page 351 of 492 ends

COMMITTEE ACTION:

On May 4, 2022, and June 5, 2024, the Corona City Council approved the Program Year 2022-2023 and 2024-2025 Action Plans to specify the eligible CDBG activities and projects to be undertaken to address the community's needs through the use of the CDBG entitlement allocation.

FINANCIAL IMPACT:

The planned projects identified in Amendment No. 1 will not impact the general fund.

Amendment No. 1 to the 2024-2025 and 2022-2023 Action Plans recommend canceling and reallocating CDBG funds between approved Community Development Block Grant projects.

ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS:

The development of required plans and the allocation of CDBG funds is an administrative activity exempt under 24 CFR Part 58, Section 58.34 of the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 (“NEPA”), as amended. Additionally, these activities are not considered to be a “project” under the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”). Individual construction activities will be assessed under NEPA and CEQA.

A. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) requires all entitlement communities receiving Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds, such as the City of Corona, to prepare and submit a Consolidated Plan every five years to establish a unified, strategic vision for community development, housing and economic development actions. The Consolidated Plan encompasses the analysis of local community needs and coordinates appropriate responses to those needs and priorities.

The Corona City Council adopted its Five-Year Consolidated Plan for 2020-2024 on June 17, 2020.

The Consolidated Plan is carried out through Annual Action Plans, which provide a concise summary of the actions, activities, and the specific federal and non-federal resources that will be used each year to address the priority needs and specific goals identified by the Consolidated Plan. The Corona City Council adopted the most recent 2024-2025 Action Plan on June 5, 2024.

The purpose of a Substantial Amendment to the Action Plan is to provide residents with the opportunity to review proposed substantial changes to previously Approved Action Plan(s) and to offer comments on those changes.

Pursuant to the City of Corona Citizen Participation Plan adopted on June 3, 2020, a Substantial Amendment to an Annual Action Plan is required when a “substantial” change is proposed, which includes:
 Addition of a new project not previously identified in the Action Plan, without regard to funding source;
 The cancelation of an existing project identified in the Action Plan, without regard to funding source; or
 Changes in the use of CDBG funds from one eligible activity to another eligible activity meeting the following thresholds:
• A net increase or decrease greater than 50% of the activity allocation if the allocation is $50,000 or more as listed in a published Action Plan, or as amended; • A net increase or decrease greater than 100% of the activity allocation if the allocation is less than $50,000 as listed in a published Action Plan or amended; or • A net increase or decrease in an activity allocation greater than $300,000.

The Substantial Amendment No. 1 to the 2024-2025 Action Plan is necessary because the City is proposing to cancel an activity (Program Year 2024 Park Improvements Project Phase III) and transfer the funds to an already existing project (Program Year 2022 Victoria Park Improvements Phase I - Splash Pad) in excess of 50% of the project’s original budget (funding budgets and reprogramming described in Section C of this amendment). This Substantial Amendment also involves amending the 2022-2023 Action Plan.

B. CITIZEN PARTICIPATION
A Notice of Public Hearing and the commencement of the 30-day public review period was published in the Weekly Sentinel on January 3, 2025, informing the public of the proposed Substantial Amendment and inviting comments at the public hearing. A secondary Notice to reschedule the Public Hearing and

Page 354 of 492 ends

the culmination of the public review period was published in the Weekly Sentinel on March 21, 2025.

The public review period began on January 6, 2025 and ran through April 2, 2025. Citizens were able to review copies of the Substantial Amendment at the Corona Public Library, City Hall (City Clerk’s Office and the Community Services Department) and on the City’s website at Community Development Block Grant | City of Corona. On April 2, 2025, the Corona City Council will hear public comments regarding the Substantial Amendment.

REQUEST FOR CITY COUNCIL ACTION
SUBJECT:

REQUEST BY COUNCIL MEMBER SPEAKE ASKING THE CITY COUNCIL TO CONSIDER AN UPDATE TO THE CITY’S HERITAGE INVENTORY TO INCLUDE

CERTAIN COMMERCIAL STRUCTURES
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:

This staff report asks the City Council to provide direction to city staff on updating the City’s Heritage Inventory to include certain commercial structures not currently listed.

Structures placed on the Heritage Inventory are considered properties that should be preserved because of the era it was constructed and its association with a historic event.

Properties listed on the Heritage Inventory are eligible to be nominated as a local historic landmark on the City’s Register of Historic Resources.

RECOMMENDED ACTION:

That the City Council provide direction to City staff based on one of the options presented in the staff report.

BACKGROUND & HISTORY:

The Planning Commission adopted Resolution 2040 on April 21, 2003, establishing the City’s Heritage Inventory. The Heritage Inventory lists 544 properties. The properties on the Heritage Inventory are identified by age, architecture, and type (residential or commercial). Each property is also ranked as high, medium, and low for potentially being listed on the Corona Register as a local landmark.

Page 358 of 492 ends

The initial survey of historic properties was done in 1983 by City librarian Gloria Freel which contained approximately 400 properties. In 1986, the City hired a consultant to continue the survey of historic buildings. The consultant added 286 properties to the survey done by Ms. Freel, bringing the total to approximately 700 properties.

In 2002, the properties on the survey were reevaluated by City staff, a community volunteer, and seven consecutive interns over a period of 19 months. In the end, the City recommended that 459 properties be listed on the Corona Heritage Inventory and notified the affected property owners of the city’s recommendation. Eventually, 452 properties were added to the inventory adopted by the Planning Commission on April 21, 2003.

Over time additional properties have been added to the Heritage Inventory, totaling 544 properties.

Properties listed on the Heritage Inventory are:
 Eligible to be listed on the Corona Register as a local landmark.  Subject to a demolition delay of 30 days.
 Demolition requests are decided by the Historic Preservation Board.  Demolition requests are based on meeting one of the findings listed in Corona Municipal Code Section 17.63.120(E)(4).

Section 17.63.100 of the CMC outlines the process to list or expand the listing of the Heritage Inventory. An application “may be initiated by the City Council, the Planning Commission, City officials, local entities or a member of the public” at any time (CMC

17.63.100 (A)). The application for each property must include “an official survey describing the features, merits and quality of the site, improvement or natural feature” and a justification of how it meets the criteria listed in CMC 17.63.090.

The following summarizes the process involved in expanding the listing of the Heritage Inventory.

1. Property is identified and surveyed according to CMC Section 17.63.090.

2. Copies of the property survey are distributed for review and comment to the Heritage Librarian, the Corona Historic Preservation Society, and any other agency affected by the expanded listing according to CMC Section 17.63.100(F)(1).

3. Any property owner directly affected by the listing is notified according to CMC Section 17.63.100(F)(2).

4. The public comment and review period shall be no less than 30 days according to CMC Section 17.63.100(F)(4).

5. The public hearing notice on the expanded listing of the Heritage Inventory before the Historic Preservation Board shall be no less than 10 days according to CMC Section 17.63.100(G).

6. The Historic Preservation Board adopts a resolution expanding the listing of the Heritage Inventory according to CMC Section 17.63.100(I).

Page 359 of 492 ends

ANALYSIS:

Expanding the listing of the Corona Heritage Inventory would require each added property to be surveyed according to Section 17.63.090 of the CMC. For a site, historic artifact, improvement, or natural feature to be listed on the Heritage Inventory, it must demonstrate that it should be preserved because of its age, and either its context in the neighborhood, its association with a historic event or period, or its significance to the architectural, engineering, scientific, economic, agricultural, educational, cultural, social, artistic, political or military history of Corona.

In current practice, properties that are eligible for listing as a local landmark need to have been in existence prior to 1950. The City would use the same criteria for properties to be listed on the Heritage Inventory since the properties on the inventory are eligible for listing as a local landmark on the Corona Register.

Expanding the Heritage Inventory is not limited to initiation by City staff. Any member of the public can request that certain property be added to the Heritage Inventory by following the process described in CMC Section 17.63.100.

Options for the City Council to Consider
The following are options for the City Council to consider regarding expanding the Heritage Inventory.

1. Current practice - Proceed with current practice, expanding the Heritage Inventory as interested parties submit applications as described in CMC Section 17.63.100.

Staff time would be limited to processing applications as they are submitted.

2. Public awareness - Conduct a public awareness campaign notifying property owners about the Heritage Inventory and the process of listing a property. Staff would create informational and social media posts to educate residents about the Heritage inventory that could also be shared by CHPS or other interested parties.

Applications would be processed per the current practice.

3. Proactive update - Direct staff to proactively update the Heritage Inventory according to a specific scope of work identified by the City Council (e.g. certain types of properties of a certain age within an identified geographical area). If the council were to direct staff to conduct a survey of potentially eligible properties and screen them for eligibility, it would take considerable effort. It is unknown at this time how many properties would be evaluated and considered for inclusion in the Heritage Inventory. Like the initial surveys, staff would also rely on help from volunteers experienced in historic preservation to identify which properties should be added to the Heritage Inventory and retain a qualified consultant in helping to identify additional properties based on the characteristics listed in CMC Section

17.63.090. Applications for each property would need to be individually prepared but a bulk submission for review may reduce the overall staff time required for processing.

FINANCIAL IMPACT:

REQUEST FOR CITY COUNCIL ACTION
SUBJECT:

REQUEST FROM COUNCIL MEMBER SPEAKE FOR PROPOSED IMPROVEMENTS

TO THE MAGNOLIA AVENUE AND EL SOBRANTE ROAD INTERSECTION EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:

This report asks the City Council to provide staff directions to explore treatments to reconfigure the intersection of Magnolia at El Sobrante, quantifying the impacts and benefits of the proposed reconfigurations.

RECOMMENDED ACTION:

That the City Council:
a. Approve staff’s recommendation to implement the short-term plan of crosswalk removal at El Sobrante Road in the interest of removing disruptions to the corridors signal coordination.
b. Provide feedback and direction on the proposed long-term treatments, perform detailed traffic studies to quantify the impacts of these proposed treatments, and prepare a future presentation to discuss conceptual alternatives and study results for the proposed long-term reconfigurations of the intersection of Magnolia at El Sobrante.

Page 372 of 492 ends

BACKGROUND & HISTORY:

Council Member Speake submitted a Future Agenda Item Request Form, requesting available options to improve traffic operations along the Magnolia Avenue corridor, specifically at the intersection of Magnolia Avenue and El Sobrante Road. The Magnolia Avenue Corridor’s operations are complicated by the sheer volume of traffic on Magnolia, Caltrans jurisdiction control of I-15 ramp signals, and the proximity of adjacent intersections to each other. This corridor has been a delicate balance of traffic flow between the I-15 freeway and Magnolia Avenue, a major arterial, since its inception.

The Traffic Engineering Division is responsible for operating and maintaining the traffic flows through the City of Corona. Staff is currently conducting a traffic signal synchronization project at this location, and several proposed improvement suggestions arose out of this engineering effort. As a result, staff proposes both short-term and longterm options, including near-term removal of the delay-inducing crosswalk across Magnolia at El Sobrante Road, reconfiguring the intersection to limit access (right in/right out) with the removal of the traffic signal, and a full reconfiguration of El Sobrante Road terminating short of Magnolia Avenue with the removal of the traffic signal.

ANALYSIS:

Currently, a project to retime or synchronize the traffic signals along the Magnolia Avenue Corridor from Rimpau Avenue to Sixth Street is underway. This effort has shown the constraints that are inhibiting optimal traffic flow on Magnolia Avenue. The corridor comprises of traffic signals owned and operated by the City of Corona, with two Interstate 15 ramp signals in the center of the corridor operated by the State of California Transportation Department (Caltrans). These entities have competing objectives for the use of signal timing on this corridor; Caltrans endeavors to serve the ramps so as not to queue back onto the freeway mainline, and the City of Corona strives to move traffic as efficiently as possible on Magnolia Avenue. These competing objectives are further hampered by the close proximity of El Sobrante Road with the Interstate 15 Southbound Offramp.

Short-Term Improvements
While analyzing the corridor for signal timing change, it was noted that the crosswalk crossing Magnolia Avenue at El Sobrante Road required a substantially high pedestrian timing interval far exceeding the timing required for vehicles to cross. This results in significant delays and causes this intersection to ‘transition’ out of synchronization with its adjacent traffic signals. Each pedestrian activation could cause several minutes out of synch, sending delays up and down the corridor. Removing this crosswalk would enable optimized signal timing and reduce the risk of transition delays. An available crosswalk is located at Rimpau Avenue, just three hundred sixty feet west of El Sobrante.

Potential Long-term Improvements – Option A
A long-term option to optimize the corridor would be to reconfigure the intersection of El Sobrante Road and Magnolia Avenue to a limited access configuration. This would convert the intersection into a permissive “right in/right out” access for both El Sobrante Road and the shopping center driveway and include removing the traffic signal at this

Page 373 of 492 ends

location. With the movements restricted to right in/right out, this enables the former intersection space to be utilized for additional vehicle storage for Rimpau and Freeway turn movements.

Long-term Improvements – Option B
The other option is to permanently remove access from El Sobrante Road to Magnolia Avenue. This would require the “knuckling” of El Sobrante Road, where it meets the driveway of the small shopping center North of Magnolia and West of El Sobrante. This option further benefits reduced conflict points by restricting access, while giving the same benefits of the traffic signal removal. Both restricted access options would require the rerouting or detouring of traffic to other adjacent roadways like the already congested Rimpau Avenue or further to the El Camino Avenue corridor.

Potential Benefits:
 Less traffic signal delay
 Additional vehicle throughput on Magnolia Avenue
 Increased turn movement storage
 Less roadway conflict points, resulting in a safer roadway  Blank canvas for beautification
Potential Challenges:
 Pedestrian delays
 Emergency access
 Diverted traffic
 Reduced access to businesses and shopping center
Staff recommends proceeding with the short-term improvements and is seeking direction from the City Council on studying the long-term options. Studying the long-term options could cost approximately $30,000 and may require additional funding approval from the City Council.

FINANCIAL IMPACT:

The financial impact of the short-term recommendation for crosswalk removal at El Sobrante Road has been determined to be less than $9,500. This would include the use of staff time for the required traffic signal modifications, staff time to prepare public notices and conduct a public meeting to satisfy the requirements of the California Vehicle Code, and the City’s striping contractor to modify the intersection striping. This effort would be covered under the Traffic Engineering Division’s existing budget for signal and striping work.

The financial impact of a long-term potential plan with associated projects reconfigurations has yet to be determined. Researching and preparing studies and conceptual options for the council to consider will require approximately 30 hours of staff time and $30,000 of consultant costs. The Traffic Engineering division can utilize existing on-call contracts with firms qualified to complete this scope of work, but this effort is not budgeted.

Page 374 of 492 ends

ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS:

This action is exempt pursuant to Section 15061(b)(3) of the Guidelines for the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), which states that a project is exempt from CEQA if the activity is covered by the general rule that CEQA applies only to projects that have the potential for causing a significant effect on the environment. Where it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the activity in question may have a significant effect on the environment, the activity is not subject to CEQA. This action provides direction to the Public Works Traffic Engineering staff to explore treatments to reconfigure the intersection of Magnolia at El Sobrante, quantifying the impacts and benefits of the proposed reconfigurations. Since there is no possibility that this action will have a significant effect on the environment, no environmental analysis is required. Individual projects will be reviewed for environmental compliance accordingly in the future.

El Sobrante Rd at Magnolia Ave
This option maintains full access to and from El Sobrante Avenue, while removing the westerly Magnolia Ave crosswalk.

Removal of this crosswalk facilitates better signal timing coordination for the Magnolia Corridor.

This option would remove the signalized intersection at El Sobrante Rd and Magnolia Ave. and would allow right turn movements in/out of the shopping center as well as El Sobrante Rd. By eliminating the left turns and through movements at this location, additional vehicle storage and more efficient signal timing could be realized.

This option would completely close the El Sobrante Road before intersecting Magnolia Avenue, convert the shopping center to limited access. This option would eliminate the signal at El Sobrante leading to additional vehicle storage, more efficient signal timing, and less conflicting movements.

Page 379 of 492 ends

Short Term
This option is a near term improvement that
would result in operational improvements for
the Magnolia Corridor.
• Delay Improvements - Vehicle timing
substantially shorter than the pedestrian
crosswalk timing required
• Each pedestrian actuation delays up to
30 seconds, and can put the intersection
in transition for up to 6 minutes
• Pedestrian delay to use Rimpau Ave
crosswalk

Page 380 of 492 ends

Long Term – Option A
• Signal Coordination improvements with
signal at El Sobrante removed
• Additional vehicle storage for more
efficient movements
• Less delays, more corridor throughput
• Reduced Access to El Sobrante and
shopping center
• Detoured Traffic – Route traffic to
Rimpau or El Camino
This option would remove the signalized intersection
at El Sobrante Rd and Magnolia Ave and restrict left

Long Term – Option B
This option would remove the signalized intersection
at El Sobrante Rd and Magnolia Ave and allow right
turn movements in and out of the shopping center
with access to El Sobrante Rd closed off.
• Signal coordination improved with signal
removed
• Less conflict points (Safer)
• Additional vehicle queuing storage for more
efficient movements
• Even less delays, more corridor throughput
• Opportunity to beautify “dead space”
• Reduced access to El Sobrante and Shopping

REQUEST FOR CITY COUNCIL ACTION
SUBJECT:

APPROVAL OF RESOLUTION 2025-020, A RESOLUTION OF THE MAYOR AND CITY

COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF CORONA ESTABLISHING ITS INTENTION TO AMEND

ITS AGREEMENT WITH CALPERS
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:

This staff report asks the City Council to adopt the resolution stating the City’s intention to amend its contract between the City and the California Public Employees’ Retirement System (CalPERS) to provide Fourth Level 1959 Survivor Benefits for its sworn Police employees, with employees paying for the entire additional cost, and to conduct first reading of Ordinance 3414, amending the City’s CalPERS contract to provide the Fourth Level Survivor Benefit.

RECOMMENDED ACTION:

That the City Council:
a. Adopt Resolution No. 2025-020, the intention to approve an amendment to the contract between the Board of Administration California Public Employees’ Retirement System and the City Council of the City of Corona. b. Introduce, by title only, and waive full reading of consideration of Ordinance No. 3414, first reading of an ordinance authorizing an amendment to the contract

Page 426 of 492 ends

between the City Council of the City of Corona, and the Board of Administration of the California Public Employees’ Retirement System.

BACKGROUND & HISTORY:

The CalPERS 1959 Survivor Benefit Program allows eligible survivors to receive a monthly allowance when CalPERS members who are not covered by Social Security pass away before retirement. There are five (5) levels to the benefit program, each varying in the dollar amount of monthly payments to survivors eligible for the benefit. Benefits are lowest for survivors at Level 1 and highest at Level 5. Currently, the City of Corona provides sworn Police employees with Level 3 survivor’s benefit. Attachment 1 is a CalPERS publication summarizing the 1959 Survivor program.

ANALYSIS:

As part of the new Memoranda of Understanding (MOUs) approved with the Corona Police Employees Association (CPEA) and Corona Police Supervisors Association (CPSA) in December 2024, the City agreed to amend its contract to provide the Fourth Level Survivor benefit. CPEA and CPSA agreed to pay the full additional benefit cost through payroll deductions so that there is no new cost to the City. Shifting from the Third Level to the Fourth Level in the Survivor Benefit program will increase the monthly payments survivors will receive if a covered CalPERS member passes away before retirement.

Provision of this benefit enhancement requires an amendment to the City’s CalPERS contract. The first steps in the contract amendment process are as follows:
 The public agency must adopt a Resolution of Intention to amend its CalPERS contract to include the Fourth Level Survivor Benefit. Government Code Section 7507 requires that the future annual costs or benefit change of the proposed contract amendment be made public at a public meeting at least two weeks before the adoption of the final Ordinance amending the CalPERS contract.  The public agency must adopt an Ordinance approving the contract amendment after a waiting period of at least 20 days between the adoption of the Resolution of Intention and the adoption of the Final Ordinance.

The proposed actions on this agenda are the first steps in this process. It is recommended that the City Council adopt the Resolution of Intention and conduct the first reading of the Ordinance, amending the CalPERS contract to add the Fourth Level Survivor Benefit for CPEA and CPSA.

Next steps and timeline:
 May 5, 2025: Second Reading and Adoption of Final Ordinance  June 6, 2025: Effective Date of Ordinance
 June 15, 2025: Effective Date of CalPERS Contract Amendment

Page 427 of 492 ends

FINANCIAL IMPACT:

The cost of this contract amendment for Fourth Level of 1959 Survivor Benefits is as follows, as identified in the actuarial variation for this plan amendment, which is attached (Attachment 4). The City’s first-year payment is zero, as noted below:

1. First-Year Employer Normal Cost $ 10,762

2. Five-Year Amortization of Unfunded Liability/Excess
Asset Payment (fixed for 5 years) ($50,643)

3. First-Year Total Employer Cost $ 0
Costs for this benefit are pooled among the participating public agencies. As the actuarial report notes, at this time, both the Third Level pool and the Fourth Level pool have surplus funded ratios, at 472.4% funded and 103.3% funded, respectively. Going forward, the report states that “the pool’s net cost will vary from year to year, depending on actual experience at the rate at which the existing surplus is amortized to offset ongoing employer normal costs”.

While costs will vary over time going forward, there is no anticipated financial impact to the City’s budget associated with this action because those costs will be funded by employee contributions in accordance with the CPEA and CPSA 2025-2027 Memoranda of Understanding. As long as the provisions in these MOU remain unchanged, costs to the City for this benefit will remain at zero as employees in these groups will fund those costs through payroll deduction.

1959 Survivor Benefit Program
The 1959 Survivor Benefit provides a monthly allowance to eligible survivors of members who were covered for this benefit program and died before retirement. This benefit coverage is available by contract amendment for those members who are not covered by federal Social Security with their employer. Covered members are required to pay a monthly fee that is deducted from their salary specifically to fund the 1959 Survivor Benefit Program.

The 1959 Survivor Benefit allowance is payable in addition to any other pre-retirement death benefit paid by CalPERS, with the possible exception of the Special Death Benefit. If the 1959 Survivor Benefit is greater than the Special Death Benefit, then the difference is paid as the 1959 Survivor Benefit. Please refer to your CalPERS Member Benefit Booklet for information on the Special Death Benefit and other pre-retirement death benefits.

Upon a member’s pre-retirement death, the respective employer and surviving spouse, registered domestic partner, or dependent children are encouraged to immediately contact CalPERS for assistance.

Monthly Benefit Levels
Currently, there are six different benefit levels. The applicable level depends on the contract the employer has with CalPERS.

County schools members and State members are covered by Level 5.

Local members (city, county, or special district) may be covered by any of the first four levels or by the “Indexed” level, depending on their employer’s contract with CalPERS.

Please refer to the following chart to determine the amounts payable under each level depending on the number of eligible survivors:

Benefit Payments
Benefit Level One Survivor Two Survivors Three or More Survivors Level 1* $180 $360 $430
Level 2* $225 $450 $538
Level 3* $350 $700 $840
Level 4 $950 $1,900 $2,280
Level 5 $750 $1,500 $1,800
Indexed Level $500** $1,000** $1,500**
* These levels are closed for new agencies or for contract amendments ** These benefit amounts increase by 2 percent each January, beginning in January 2001.

Page 439 of 492 ends

Eligible Survivors
Spouse or registered dometic partner: A surviving spouse or registered domestic partner is a person who was legally married, or in a registered domestic partnership, with the member either one year prior to the member’s death, or before the occurrence of the injury or onset of illness that resulted in the member’s death. A surviving spouse or registered domestic partner is entitled to the 1959 Survivor Benefit as long as they have care of an eligible child, OR are at least age 62 (age 60 at Level 4, 5, and under the Indexed Level). A surviving spouse may remarry and continue to receive their allowance.

Children: An unmarried biological or adopted child of the member or an unmarried stepchild (if the child was living with the member in a parent-child relationship) is eligible for benefits while under age 22. An unmarried child incapacitated because of a disability which began before attaining age 22 may be entitled to the benefit until the disability ends. If a child is in the care of the guardian, or is living on their own, the child’s portion of the benefit is payable to the guardian or to the child directly, rather than to the surviving spouse or registered domestic partner.

Parents: A parent may be eligible if there is no surviving spouse, registered domestic partner or eligible children, and the parent(s) was dependent on the member for at least half of their financial support at the time of the member’s death.

Taxability Of The Benefit
The 1959 Survivor Benefit is a taxable allowance and will be reported by CalPERS to the tax authorities each year on a Form 1099R.

Some surviving spouses and registered domestic partners are subject to a mandatory 20 percent federal withholding on all or a portion of their 1959 Survivor Benefit allowance.

If the 20 percent federal withholding applies, a spouse or registered domestic partner may avoid the withholding if they elect to have the allowancedirectly rolled over into an individual retirement account (IRA). A form to elect a rollover will be provided at the time benefits are payable if the payee is subject to the mandatory 20 percent withholding.

All or a portion of the allowance may be rolled over into an IRA, or else be subject to 20 percent withholding, under the following circumstances:
• The entire allowance is subject to 20 percent withholding, or may be rolled over to an IRA, if the payee is a surviving spouse, or registered domestic partner, who has care of children who will all turn age 22 in less than 10 years from the effective date of the allowance.
• A portion of the allowance is subject to 20 percent withholding, or may be rolled over to an IRA, if; 1) the payee is a surviving spouse, or registered domestic partner, who has care of at least two children, and: 2) the payee will have care of only one eligible child in less than 10 years from the effective date of the allowance.

Page 440 of 492 ends

The 20 percent withholding does not apply when a spouse, or registered domestic partner, receives the allowance at age 60 or 62.

In any case, the surviving spouse, or registered domestic partner, is encouraged to call CalPERS for answers regarding their specific tax questions.

City of Corona (CalPERS ID: 1307714161), Safety - Police Amendment Actuarial Valuation Report as of June 30, 2023 Section 21574 - Fourth Level of 1959 Survivor Benefit Program for Local Members The table on the following page shows the change in the liabilities and costs for adopting an increase in the 1959 Survivor Benefit from the Third Level to the Fourth Level for the member category indicated above. The costs are determined using the Term Insurance Funding Method. Under this method, the accrued liability is equal to the present value of benefits to survivors currently receiving payments and deferred benefits payable to a spouse of a deceased member when the spouse attains age

60. The normal cost is equal to the present value of benefits for expected deaths during the upcoming year.

The assets and liabilities for public agencies in the program are pooled for each Level. When a member group contracts for Fourth Level benefits from the Third Level, the employer’s unfunded liability is based on the Third Level funded ratio as of the most recently completed valuation, adjusted for the higher benefit amounts for Fourth Level survivors. The cost to the agency is the adjusted unfunded liability plus the Fourth Level normal cost for five years. The five-year normal cost requirement is necessary to prevent inequitable depletion of the pool’s current surplus by agencies who have not contributed to the surplus.

For the Fourth Level 1959 Survivor Benefit, the CalPERS Board of Administration approved a fiscal year 2024-25 employer normal cost of $5.90 per covered active member, per month. The assets used to determine the unfunded liability are allocated in accordance with a formula based on various factors, including the member category’s accrued liability and length of time in the current level pool, and the current level pool’s total assets and liabilities. Agencies will be allowed to amortize this unfunded liability over a period of five years. If there are excess assets rather than an unfunded liability, the excess will be used to offset the normal cost payments to the extent possible. Your agency’s first-year payment (normal cost plus amortization of unfunded liability/excess assets) is $0. Payments for years two through five will be recalculated each year and will vary according to the number of covered active members and the pool’s revised normal cost.

At the end of five years, the group(s) become part of the pool and the employer’s cost will be the pool’s net cost. Currently the Third Level pool has an employer cost of $0.00 due to the large surplus (472.4% funded ratio). The Fourth Level pool has a modest surplus (103.3% funded ratio), and the pool’s employer net cost after amortization of the surplus is $5.80 per member, per month. Please note, however, that the pool’s net cost will vary from year to year, depending on actual experience and the rate at which the existing surplus is amortized to offset ongoing employer normal costs.

Fiscal Year
Employer Premiums
Third Level Fourth Level
2023-24 $0.00 $5.20
2024-25 $0.00 $5.80
Should your agency elect to proceed with this contract amendment and payments are due, annual payments will be in level dollar amounts and will not be expressed as a percentage of your covered payroll. If payments are due, your agency will be set up on a five-year amortization payment schedule. The first invoice will be sent in June, and your first payment is due within 30 days.

The valuation has been performed in accordance with standards of practice prescribed by the Actuarial Standards Board, and the assumptions and methods are internally consistent and reasonable for this plan, as prescribed by the CalPERS Board of Administration according to provisions set forth in the California Public Employees’ Retirement Law. The valuation has been prepared in accordance with generally accepted actuarial practice.

REQUEST FOR CITY COUNCIL ACTION
SUBJECT:

CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT 2023-0015 FOR THE ESTABLISHMENT OF A RELIGIOUS FACILITY (MOSQUE) WITHIN AN EXISTING 4,330 SQUARE-FOOT RESIDENTIAL DWELLING, ON 1.37 ACRES LOCATED AT 2460 SOUTH MAIN STREET IN THE R-1-8.4, SINGLE FAMILY RESIDENTIAL, ZONE (APPLICANT: ALI

RAZA RIZVI, SAJJADIA ISLAMIC SOCIETY)
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:

This staff report asks the City Council to affirm the decision by the Planning and Housing Commission in granting Conditional Use Permit 2023-0015 (CUP2023-0015) for the establishment of a religious facility on 1.37 acres within an existing residential dwelling.

The dwelling is 4,330 square feet and the interior of the structure will be converted to support prayer services, religious teachings, and an administrative office. The exterior of the property will be improved with a parking lot and landscaping. The R-1-8.4 zone is intended for single family residential, but allows religious facilities by a conditional use permit, which is the reason for CUP2023-0015.

RECOMMENDED ACTION:

That the City Council:
a. Take no action, thereby affirming the Planning and Housing Commission’s action granting CUP2023-0015, based on the finding contained in the staff report and conditions of approval.

Page 445 of 492 ends

OR
b. Set the item for review at a subsequent meeting.

BACKGROUND & HISTORY:

The applicant and current owner of the property is the Sajjadia Islamic Society, an organization that provides religious learning programs and a prayer hall for the Shia Islamic community. The Society is currently operating within the Corona North Mall at 425 Corona Mall. The applicant purchased the property at 2460 S. Main Street with the intent of relocating, establishing and operating a mosque. As with other various religious organizations in the City, the Sajjadia Islamic Society would operate the new facility and learning center with its own specific prayer times.

ANALYSIS:

Site Plan
The property is bordered by single family residential dwellings to the north and west, a church to the south, Nanner’s Way (street) to the northwest, and Main Street to the east.

The existing dwelling and an attached two-car garage are centrally located on the property. Two driveways are located at the property’s east perimeter which provides vehicular access from Main Street. A third driveway is located at the northwest perimeter which provides access from Nanners Way.

No expansion is proposed to the existing building. However, new paved parking spaces with associated drive aisles and landscaping are proposed around the building. The perimeter of the property will be fenced and the new parking lot will be gated.

To facilitate the capture and infiltration of surface runoff, a landscaped bioretention basin is proposed on the northeastern corner of the project site. Minimal grading is proposed and will be limited to leveling the site for the parking lot and providing proper onsite drainage patterns.

Pursuant to the R-1-8.4 zone, the project site requires a 25-foot front-yard building setback, a side yard setback of five feet on one side and 10 feet on the other side, and when adjacent to a street, a 15-foot rear-yard building setback. Per the CMC, when a lot abuts more than one street, the lot’s front yard is considered the narrowest portion abutting the street. As the narrowest portion of the project site fronts Nanners Way, this area is considered the front yard for the purpose of determining the front yard setback area, which makes the portion of the property that abuts Main Street the rear setback area. The existing structure meets the setback requirement of the R-1-8.4 zone.

Elevations

Page 446 of 492 ends

The conversion of the existing single story residential dwelling to its new use as a mosque will include minimal exterior alterations. At the building’s east elevation, one existing window will be demolished, and a new door will be added, coupled with the removal of gates (located forward of the building’s entryway). The building’s existing stucco surfacing, earthtone-colored concrete roof tiles, and general form (gabled roofs, singlestory, etc.) will be unchanged.

Operation
The interior of the new mosque will include two prayer halls totaling 1,675 SF, two reading rooms totaling 495 SF, a breakroom totaling 232 SF, and three restrooms totaling 443 SF. The remaining area consists of a two-car garage (for use by staff), various hallways and storage. New ramps are proposed on the west and east sides of the building that provide pedestrian access from the exterior to the prayer halls. The overall building footprint will be unchanged.

Prayers will be conducted inside the building five times daily, from sunrise to sunset.

While the timing of prayer sessions will vary by time of the year/season (primarily occurring daily at sunrise and sunset), the applicant has provided the current prayer times, shown in Table 1.

Table 1: Prayer Times
Day of the Week Prayer Time
Morning Prayer 5:07 AM
Noon Prayer 12:02 PM
Afternoon Prayer 3:20 PM
Sunset Prayer 5:49 PM
Evening Prayer 6:57 PM
From Saturday through Thursday, the applicant anticipates approximately zero to 10 people in attendance during specified prayer times, with larger gatherings on Friday afternoons and Sunday mornings where the average occupancy inside the building is expected to be between 50 to 75 individuals. Approximately 75 percent of the individuals will be adults, aged 18 and above; 20 percent will be children, aged 12 to 17; and the remaining five percent will be young children under the age of 5 years.

Access And On-Site Circulation
Patrons of the mosque will use the property’s two existing driveways from Main Street.

Driveways will be modified to meet current city standards but maintained in their current locations. The northerly driveway is proposed as the site’s primary entrance and will allow for vehicles traveling southbound on Main Street to make right turns into the site.

Northbound vehicles on Main Street are restricted from making left turns into the site due to an existing raised concrete center median located on Main Street. The southerly driveway is proposed as an exit-only driveway, and vehicles are limited to right turns onto Main Street due to the existing center median on Main Street.

Nanners Way is a local street and the driveway from this street is currently closed off by existing gates. The driveway from Nanners Way will remain gated during all hours of use

Page 447 of 492 ends

on the project site, and only available for use as secondary access for emergency vehicles. As such, the mosque meets the city’s siting criteria for religious facilities as the project site will have primary access from a major arterial street and will not have daily access from streets used by residential neighborhoods.

The parking lot entrance will be gated by an electric automatic gate that is offset from the site’s northerly driveway. As shown on the site plan, this driveway can accommodate the queueing of up to three vehicles from the onsite gate. The gates will remain open when the mosque has prayer services or other religious gatherings. When there are no events, the gates will remain closed. The applicant has agreed, and as required as a condition of approval added by the Planning and Housing Commission, to provide through-access from the on-site drive lane extending from the northerly driveway to the project site’s back drive aisle to allow left turns. This is to allow vehicles to circulate further into the site should any potential stacking occur from the northerly driveway.

No public improvements are required within the right-of-way, as the segments of Main Street and Nanners Way adjacent to the project site are fully developed according to the ultimate right-of-way widths for both streets, including curb and gutter, sidewalk and parkway.

Traffic Trip Generation
Because the mosque will spread out its prayer five times throughout the day, the use is not expected to exceed 50 trips during peak hours. The largest occupancy is expected on Friday afternoon, when approximately between 50 to 75 individuals (including children) would be in attendance. The City’s Traffic Division evaluated the number of p.m. peak hour trips expected on Friday and concluded that the project would result in 18 peak hour trips within one hour between 4:00 p.m. and 6:00 p.m. Also, the use of the mosque on Sunday would be outside of peak traffic times. As such, the proposed mosque is not expected to create traffic impacts on Main Street or other surrounding roadways.

Parking
Per CMC Section 17.76.030, a religious facility is required to have at least one parking space for every 25 square feet of assembly area for the prayer hall. Like other religious facilities, the required parking is based on the floor area used for prayer services, which is the most conservative parking ratio at any given time. Since other uses within the building are during opposite times of the prayer services, the parking spaces normally used for the prayer services are shared with the other uses in the structure.

The mosque requires 67 parking spaces, with 68 parking spaces proposed. The project’s parking compliance is summarized below in Table 2.

Walls and Fences
A total of 258 linear feet of new wrought-iron fencing and two metal gates, standing a maximum of six feet in height, are proposed along the easterly perimeter of the property.

An existing block wall along the north property line, chain-link fencing on the south property line, and a block wall along the west property lines would remain.

FINANCIAL IMPACT:

The applicant paid the application processing fees of $3,874 to cover the cost of the Conditional Use Permit.

ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS:

Per Section 15301 (Class 1 – Existing Facilities) of the State Guidelines for Implementing the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and Section 3.21 of the City’s Local CEQA Guidelines, a Notice of Exemption has been prepared for the project because the project qualifies as a Class 1 (Existing Facilities) categorical exemption. The project involves minor exterior alterations on a site that is 1.37 acres and interior improvements to the inside of an existing building.

PLANNING AND HOUSING COMMISSION ACTION:

At its meeting on March 10, 2025, the Planning and Housing Commission considered the subject matter and took the following action:

Motion was made, seconded (Vernon/Alexander) and carried, with Commissioner Siqueland absent, that the Planning and Housing Commission find the project exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15301 (Class 1 – Existing Facilities), adopt Resolution No. 2661 granting CUP2023-0015, based on the findings contained in the staff report, the conditions of approval and the added conditions of approval. The minutes of the Planning and Housing Commission meeting are included as Exhibit 4.

CUP2023-0015: Conditional Use Permit for the establishment of a religious facility (mosque) within an existing 4,330 square-foot residential dwelling, on a 1.37-acre property located at 2460 South Main Street. (Applicant: Ali Raza Rizvi representing the Sajjadia Islamic Society Inc., 8685 Orchard Park Drive, Riverside, CA 92508) RECOMMENDED ACTION:

That the Planning and Housing Commission find the project categorically exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15301, and adopt Resolution No. 2661 GRANTING CUP2023-0015, based on the findings contained in the staff report and conditions of approval.

Page 453 of 492 ends

BACKGROUND
Conditional Use Permit CUP2023-0015 is a request to allow for the establishment of a new mosque (religious facility) within an existing, vacant single-family dwelling. The dwelling would be remodeled to accommodate the proposed use, and the broader property will be improved with a new surface parking lot and landscaping. The project site is located at 2460 South Main Street and zoned R-1-8.4 (Single-Family Residential Zone). Pursuant to Section

17.92.040 of the Corona Municipal Code (CMC), religious facilities (including churches, mosques and the like) are a permitted use within all residentially zoned parcels with approval of a Conditional Use Permit (CUP).

The applicant and current owner of the property is the Sajjadia Islamic Society, an organization that provides religious learning programs and a prayer hall for the Shia Islamic community. The Society is currently operating within the Corona North Mall at 425 Corona Mall and is seeking to relocate after the property was recently acquired by the City of Corona for redevelopment. The applicant purchased the project site with the intent of relocating, establishing and operating a mosque. As with other various religious organizations in the city, the Sajjadia Islamic Society would operate the new facility with its own specific prayer times and learning center.

The project was initially reviewed by city staff at the Development Plan Review (DPR) Committee meeting held on October 14, 2021. The applicant formally submitted the CUP application on May 15, 2023, and the application was reviewed by staff at the Project and Environmental Review Committee (PRC) meeting held on June 8, 2023. In response to staff’s comments, the applicant revised the plans, with the application ultimately deemed complete on February 4, 2025 and scheduled for the March 10, 2025 Planning and Housing Commission.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION
CUP2023-0015 is a request to establish a mosque within an existing 4,330 square-foot (SF) residential dwelling, to be remodeled to accommodate the new use. The repurposing of the existing structure would also include the construction of a new surface parking lot, trash facilities, landscaping, property-line fencing and gates. The following sections discuss the project’s site plan, hours of operation, access, onsite circulation and other features.

Site Plan
The property is bordered by single family residential dwellings to the north and west, a church to the south, Nanner’s Way (street) to the northwest, and Main Street to the east. The existing buildings and an attached two-car garage are centrally located on the property. Two driveways are located at the property’s east perimeter which provides vehicular access from Main Street. A third driveway is located at the northwest perimeter which provides access from Nanners Way. No expansion is proposed to the existing building. However, new paved parking spaces with associated drive aisles and landscaping are proposed around the building. The perimeter of the property will be fenced and the new parking lot will be gated.

Page 454 of 492 ends

A new trash enclosure is proposed to the southeast of the building and is conditioned to comply with the City’s trash enclosure standards, including surface materials and coloring to match that of the new mosque.

To facilitate the capture and infiltration of surface runoff, a landscaped bioretention basin is proposed on the northeastern corner of the project site; and, minimal grading is proposed and will be limited to leveling out the site for the parking lot and providing proper onsite drainage patterns (Exhibit 3 – Project Plans).

Pursuant to the property’s R-1-8.4 Zoning, the project site requires a 25-foot front-yard building setback, a side yard setback of five feet on one side and 10 feet on the other side, and when adjacent to a street, a 15-foot rear-yard building setback. Per the CMC, when a lot abuts more than one street, the lot’s front yard is considered the narrowest portion abutting the street. As the narrowest portion of the project site fronts Nanners Way, this area is considered the front yard for the purpose of determining the front yard setback area, which makes the portion of the property that abuts Main Street the rear setback area. As shown on the site plan, the mosque meets the setback requirements which are summarized in Table 1 below.

Yes
Floor Plan and Operations
The interior of the new mosque includes two prayer halls totaling 1,675 SF, two reading rooms totaling 495 SF, and three restrooms totaling 443 SF. The remaining area consists of a two-car garage (for use by mosque staff), a break room, various hallways and storage. New ramps are proposed on the west and east sides of the building that provide pedestrian access from the exterior to the prayer halls. As stated, while the interior of the building will be completely remodeled to accommodate the proposed use, the overall footprint will be unchanged.

Prayers will be conducted inside the building five times daily, from sunrise to sunset. While the timing of prayer sessions will vary by time of the year/season (primarily occurring daily at sunrise and sunset), the applicant has provided staff their current prayer times, shown in Table 2.

Page 455 of 492 ends

Day of the Week Prayer Time
Morning Prayer 5:07 AM
Noon Prayer 12:02 PM
Afternoon Prayer 3:20 PM
Sunset Prayer 5:49 PM
Evening Prayer 6:57 PM
From Saturday through Thursday, the applicant anticipates approximately zero to 10 people in attendance during specified prayer times, with larger gatherings on Friday afternoons and Sunday mornings where the average occupancy inside the building is expected to be between 50 to 75 individuals. Approximately 75 percent of the individuals will be adults, aged 18 and above; 20 percent will be children, aged 12 to 17; and the remaining five percent will be young children under the age of 5 years.

Elevations
The conversion of the existing residential dwelling to its new use as a mosque will include minimal exterior alterations. At the building’s east elevation, one existing window will be demolished and relocated for placement of a new door, coupled with removal of gates (located forward of the building’s entryway); and at the north elevation, existing garage doors will be replaced. The building’s existing stucco surfacing, earthtone-colored concrete roof tiles, and general form (gabled roofs, single-story, etc.) will be unchanged. Overall height is proposed as 17 feet, six inches, less than the 25-foot building limit prescribed by the property’s zoning. Elevations for the proposed religious facility are attached as Exhibit 3.

Access And On-Site Circulation
Patrons of the mosque will use the property’s two existing driveways from Main Street.

According to Section 17.92.040(B), religious facilities may be permitted by CUP only if the use is located on a site with primary access and at least one frontage on a major, secondary or fully improved collector street. Main Street is a four-lane, Major Arterial. Driveways will be modified to meet current city standards but maintained in their current locations. The northerly driveway is proposed as the site’s primary entrance and will allow for vehicles traveling southbound on Main Street to make right turns into the site. Northbound vehicles on Main Street are restricted from making left turns into the site due to an existing raised concrete center median located on Main Street. The southerly driveway is proposed as an exit-only driveway, and vehicles are limited to right turns onto Main Street due to the existing center median on Main Street.

Page 456 of 492 ends

mosque has prayer services or other religious gatherings. When there are no events, the gates will remain closed.

Nanners Way is a local street and the driveway from this street is currently closed off by existing gates. The driveway from Nanners Way will remain gated during all hours of use on the project site, only available for use as secondary access for emergency vehicles.

Onsite circulation is comprised of one-way and two-way drive aisles which provide vehicular access from the project entrance to the parking spaces. The onsite circulation has been reviewed by city departments, including the Fire Department, for compliance with the applicable codes and requirements.

Traffic Trip Generation
Because the mosque will spread out its prayer five times throughout the day, the use is not expected to exceed 50 trips during peak hours. The largest occupancy is expected on Friday afternoon, when approximately between 50 to 75 individuals (including children) would be in attendance. The city’s Traffic Division evaluated the number of p.m. peak hour trips expected on Friday and concluded that the project would result in 18 peak hour trips within one hour between 4:00 p.m. and 6:00 p.m. Also, the use of the mosque on Sunday would be outside of peak traffic times. As such, the proposed mosque is not expected to create traffic impacts on Main Street or other surrounding roadways.

Parking
Per CMC Section 17.76.030, a religious facility is required to have at least one parking space for every 25 SF of assembly area. Based on the total size of the mosque’ assembly areas (i.e., prayer halls), the mosque requires 67 parking spaces, with 68 parking spaces proposed. The project’s parking compliance is summarized below in Table 3.

Walls and Fences
A total of 258 linear feet of new wrought-iron fencing and two metal gates, standing a maximum of six feet in height, are proposed along the easterly perimeter of the property. An existing block wall along the north property line, chain-link fencing on the south property line, and a block wall along the west property lines would remain.

Landscaping
Landscaping will be provided throughout the site, including around the perimeter, throughout the parking lot, and within a bioretention basin proposed at the lot’s northerly extent. In total, the site will have approximately 19,000 SF of landscaping, including 9,076 SF within the bioretention basin. While the applicant’s letter (attached as Exhibit 5) states that grass, various shrubs, and mulch will be installed, CMC Chapter 17.70 prohibits the use of live turf (grass) except in areas dedicated for recreational or functional needs such as the bioretention basin, and accordingly a condition of approval has been added to require the applicant to install other acceptable landscape materials such as groundcover or shrubs in lieu of live turf.

The CMC also requires parking rows to have half-diamond-shaped landscape planters spaced every six parking spaces (to allow for the planting of shade trees) and sized a minimum of five feet in width. The project has been conditioned to include the half-diamond planters as well as new shrubs at the easterly (rear) property line along the west perimeter (the latter to shield traffic traveling on South Main Street from the adjacent parking lot headlights).

The applicant has paid the applicable application processing fees for the project.

PUBLIC NOTICE AND COMMENTS
A 10-day public notice was mailed to all property owners within a 500-foot radius of the project site, advertised in the Sentinel Weekly News and posted at the project site.

As of the writing of this report, one item of correspondence has been received from the public and is included herein as Exhibit 8.

Page 458 of 492 ends

STAFF ANALYSIS
Conditional Use Permit CUP2023-0015 is a request to allow for the conversion of an existing single-family dwelling into a new religious facility (mosque), a permitted use within all residential zones with approval of a conditional use permit. In compliance with development standards enumerated within the R1-8.4 Zone, the project site can accommodate a new parking lot, trash enclosure, bioretention basin, interior remodel, and exterior façade enhancements. The operation of the mosque will be entirely contained inside the remodeled building and traffic is expected to be minimal during most prayer service times and spread throughout the day. No vehicular access will occur from Nanners Way, and Main Street is capable of supporting the traffic from the mosque, even during highest occupancy on Friday evenings and Sunday mornings.

The mosque meets the city’s siting criteria for religious facilities as the project site will have primary access from a major arterial street and will not have daily access from streets used by residential neighborhoods. Following the remodel of the residential dwelling, the architecture would still represent the appearance and scale of the existing building, and the religious facility would support Corona’s growing Muslim community. Based on the analysis herein, the Planning and Development Department accordingly recommends that the Planning and Housing Commission approve CUP2023-0015, based on the findings below and the recommended conditions of approval attached as Exhibit 6.

FINDINGS OF APPROVAL FOR CUP2023-0015

1. A preliminary environmental assessment has been conducted by the City of Corona and determined that the project does not require further environmental assessment as it qualifies for a Class 1 Categorical Exemption per Section 15301 of the State Guidelines for Implementing the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and Section 3.28 of the City’s Local CEQA Guidelines. According to the State Guidelines, Class 1 categorical exemptions consist of the operation, repair, maintenance, permitting, leasing, licensing, or minor alteration of existing public or private structures, facilities, mechanical equipment, or topographical features involving negligible or no expansion of existing or former use. The project consists of interior alterations, minor exterior changes to an existing structure, and the use will be contained entirely inside the building. Therefore, there is no possibility that the project will have a significant effect on the environment.

Way. Furthermore, the proposed scope of work has been reviewed by the Fire, Public Works, Police and Planning and Development Department, including therein, the Planning, Development Services and Building Divisions, and found to be in compliance with applicable development standards in the Corona Municipal Code.
b. CUP2023-0015 will not be detrimental to other existing and permitted uses in the area because the proposed use complies with the siting criteria in Section

17.92.040(B) of the CMC for religious facilities and the site plan demonstrates that parking, landscaping, water quality facilities, and trash facilities can be provided on the project site.
c. The project is subject to the Conditions of Approval enumerated in Exhibit 6, which are necessary and desirable for the purpose of protecting public health, safety, convenience, and general welfare of the public, in accordance with the intent and purpose of the City’s zoning regulations.

3. The proposal is consistent with the General Plan for the following reasons:
a. CUP2023-0015 is consistent with Land Use Element Goal LU-8: Assure the integrity, quality, and livability of Corona’s existing residential neighborhoods, preserving those elements that give them character, cohesion, and quality of life. CUP2023-0015 furthers this goal by allowing for the development of a religious facility that is compatible with the surrounding land uses to assure the quality and livability of Corona’s existing neighborhoods within the City. b. CUP2023-0015 is consistent with Land Use Element Policy LU-8.5: Promote development and enhancement of places that serve as the focal point of identity and activity in neighborhoods through the integration and, where feasible, consolidation of parks, schools, community facilities, religious facilities, and similar uses. CUP2023-0015 is consistent with this policy because it allows for the development of a religious facility that will serve as a focal point of identity and activity to the surrounding neighborhood and community.

CUP2023-0015 is consistent with this policy because it allows for the development of a religious facility that will serve as a focal point of identity and activity to the surrounding neighborhood and community.
