REQUEST FOR CITY COUNCIL ACTION
SUBJECT:

CONTRACT WITH FLOCK SAFETY TO PROVIDE HARDWARE, SOFTWARE,

TRAINING, AND REGULATORY SERVICES FOR DRONE AS A FIRST RESPONDER

PROGRAM
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:

This staff report asks the City Council to authorize the City Manager to enter into a contract with Flock Safety to provide services for a second-generation Drone as a First Responder program (DFR 2.0). This program will improve the Police Department’s emergency response times and provide officers with critical situational awareness through unmanned aircraft systems. The contract includes hardware, software, services, and training necessary to implement and maintain the DFR 2.0 program over a 36-month term. The contract also includes an operating system for the Real-Time Information Center (RTIC) that allows multiple technologies already in use by the police department to be accessed and controlled through a single computer program.

Additionally, this request includes funding for necessary infrastructure improvements at three (3) drone deployment sites and one (1) radar site within the city.

RECOMMENDED ACTION:
a. Authorize the City Manager, or his designee, to execute an agreement with Flock Safety for a 36-month contract through June 30, 2028, to provide Drone as a First

Responder hardware, software, training, and regulatory services the amount of $1,528,662.
b. Make a determination under Corona Municipal Code 3.08.140(E) that competitive bidding has been otherwise accomplished as provided for in the “Basis for Determination of Competitive Bidding” section of this agenda report. c. Authorize the City Manager, or his designee, to issue purchase orders to Flock Safety: in the amounts of $341,258 for FY 2026 and $593,702 for FY 2027 and FY 2028.
d. Authorize the City Manager, or his designee, to negotiate and execute any nonsubstantive extensions, amendments, and change orders up to $152,866 or 10% of the original purchase order amount as provided by the Corona Municipal Code (CMC) Section 3.08.060(j).
e. Authorize the elimination of three (3) part-time vacant Public Safety Dispatcher II Flex positions and two (2) full-time vacant Public Safety Dispatch Call Taker positions.
f. Authorize the creation of a new Capital Improvement Project (CIP) titled, “DFR Infrastructure Upgrades.”
g. Authorize a budgetary transfer in the amount of $100,000 from the salaries/benefits category in the Police Department’s operating budget to the newly created DFR Infrastructure Upgrades Capital Improvement Project within the General Fund 110 due to the elimination of vacant positions for required infrastructure upgrades to unmanned aerial vehicle launch sites and a radar deployment site.

BACKGROUND & HISTORY:

On April 13, 2023, the City Council directed the Police Department to move forward with a Drone as a First Responder (DFR) program to enhance police response capabilities through real-time video intelligence. The existing “DFR 1.0” system consists of a drone deployed from the rooftop of the police station that can rapidly respond to incident locations within a 2.5-mile radius. This model requires a rooftop visual observer to scan the airspace for hazards and conduct battery swapping on the drones. A pilot is positioned inside the police department and is responsible for flying the drone and communicating with police officers on the ground. The program has been filled on an overtime basis since May 2024. Between May and December 2024, the DFR program was in service for a total of 374 hours. Drones responded to 540 calls for service and were first on-scene 68 percent of the time. The drone team handled 109 calls for service without the need for ground units.

DFR 1.0 systems are challenging to scale to multiple drone locations as each requires a visual observer, increasing personnel costs. The single-location deployment method

limits the ability to reach most of the city and is often cited as a frustration for drone operators. The proposed upgrade to “DFR 2.0” represents a significant technological advancement that allows a single pilot to operate multiple pre-positioned drones without requiring visual observers at individual launch sites. This next-generation system features:
 Enhanced autonomous capabilities with automated flight paths  Advanced airspace mitigation management through radar and Automatic Dependent Surveillance-Broadcast (ADS-B) technology
 Automated battery replacement systems
 Direct integration with the department’s Computer-Aided Dispatch (CAD) infrastructure
 Increased flight range for each drone
The DFR 2.0 platform enables expanded drone coverage to the entire city while substantially reducing personnel requirements and associated costs.

Several California municipalities have already implemented DFR 2.0 systems with impressive results. The City of Elk Grove’s program utilized DFR 2.0 to respond to 149 calls for service in the first two months of 2025. The drone was first on scene 67% of the time, reducing response time by 75% on average. The Corona Police Department seeks to become Riverside County’s pioneer in adopting this innovative public safety technology.

ANALYSIS:

The Police Department seeks to develop a DFR program that seamlessly integrates with the agency's current technology. A DFR 2.0 program will provide improved technology while saving on personnel costs.

Flock Safety offers a DFR 2.0 program that bundles drones, docking stations, software, regulatory services, training, and warranties. The products offered in Flock’s program integrate seamlessly with one another and offer significant benefits that will allow for enhanced safety and efficiency in Corona when used in conjunction with technologies currently being used by the police department. Flock’s program includes the following:
• Drones and batteries
• Docking stations with automated battery swapping requiring only a two-minute downtime
• Software for the Real Time Information Center (RTIC) that allows piloting of the drones and ingests multiple technologies already in use by the police department such as Automatic License Plate Readers (ALPRs) and city cameras • Flight logging and analytics providing comprehensive records • Air traffic awareness module to ensure safe flights
• Training in remote drone operation and safe flights
• Advanced detect and avoid radar to avoid in-air collisions • Assistance with obtaining required FAA waivers to eliminate the need for visual observers

• Visual observers at two launch locations for 40 hours per week until waivers from the FAA are obtained
• Flock Real-Time computer operating system, allowing the coordination of multiple technologies in a single source
The Police Department is prepared to staff the program full-time with existing personnel and will repurpose existing funding to make it viable.

Basis for Determination of Competitive Bidding
Corona Municipal Code (CMC) Section 3.08.140 states that when the purchasing agent and the authorized contracting party, with the approval of the City Manager, determine that it is in the best interest of the city and its administrative operations to dispense with public bidding for non-public projects, any alternative procedure, including no bidding may be used.

Corona Police staff researched and tested DFR platforms provided by the following companies: DroneSense by Axon, BRINC, SkyDio, and Flock Safety. Staff found Flock Safety’s DFR system to be of superior quality and performance. Flock covers more miles per drone than its competitors at a lower cost per mile. Flock is also the only platform that offers automated battery swapping, significantly reducing downtime and saving on personnel costs. Additional benefits identified by staff with the Flock platform are the drones’ ability to fly at night, requiring only three locations for 100-percent city coverage, best-in-class camera systems, and leased equipment in a rapidly evolving area of law enforcement.

Based on the extensive research conducted, it is the opinion of staff that a formal Request For Proposal process is not in the best interest of the City, as it will not result in additional vendors able to provide the City with the desired capabilities of the products and services included in the Flock Safety package. The expenditure of time and money will not result in an outcome that is more advantageous to the City. Staff recommends that the City Council dispense with the formal request for proposal procedure and authorize the City Manager, or his designee, to execute an agreement with Flock Safety.

A new capital improvement project, DFR Infrastructure Upgrades, will be created to track the costs for infrastructure improvements to fully implement the DFR program. The appropriation request is $100,000 and will include funding for fiber internet installations, electrical and ethernet conduit, and a Civil Engineer review and installation of a radar deployment site.

TOTAL $100,000 $341,258 $593,702 $593,702
FINANCIAL IMPACT:

Funding for initial costs of the Drone as a First Responder (DFR) program is available through the cost savings from eliminating three (3) part-time Public Safety Dispatcher II Flex and two (2) full-time Public Safety Dispatch Call Taker positions. Approval of the recommended actions will result in a budgetary transfer in the amount of $100,000 from the salaries/benefits category in the Police Department’s operating budget to the newly created DFR Infrastructure Upgrades Capital Improvement Project within the General Fund 110 for required infrastructure upgrades to unmanned aerial vehicle launch sites and a radar deployment site.

The Police Department is taking a strategic approach to offset the costs of the Flock agreement over the 36-month term by eliminating vacant budgeted positions and reducing budget in other areas (e.g. Overtime and Air Support Program) to enhance organizational effectiveness.

The table below provides a comparative analysis of the costs associated with the agreement and the corresponding reductions made to the recurring items budget. This comparison highlights the financial adjustments implemented to accommodate the agreement's expenditures within the broader budget framework. Over the 36-month term, the Department is estimating cost savings of $14,000.

Funding in the amount of $341,258 for FY 2026 will be included in the FY 2026 Proposed Operating Budget within the General Fund 110. Funding for FY 2027 and FY 2028 will be recommended through the annual budget process.

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 of direct enforcement is minimal and there is no possibility this will have a significant effect on the environment. Therefore, no environmental analysis is required.

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).

On April 2, 2025, the City Council was formally notified of the bids solicited for the asphalt and concrete repairs on the parking lot related to the transmission water main line break.

ANALYSIS:

Due to the emergency nature of the situation, staff contacted multiple contractors with experience in water main repairs and the adequate equipment to respond to a water-main failure of this magnitude. The Utilities Department (UD) contacted the City’s on-call contractors, but they did not have the proper equipment. Merlin Johnson Construction, Inc. was selected based on their immediate availability and proper equipment such as an excavator capable of reaching the broken transmission water main 25-30 feet deep underground to perform the repairs.

Merlin Johnson Construction, Inc. successfully completed the emergency repairs between March 6, 2025, and March 12, 2025, and provided the following costs to the City following the completion of the work:

Item Scope of Work Cost
1 3/6/2025–3/7/2025 - 30” CML&C water main leak. Mobilize, excavate and repair, backfill, compaction and clean up
$63,626.07

2 3/8/2025 - Continue backfill, compaction and clean up $24,045.16 3 3/10/2025 - Completed backfill and clean up. Re-installed City material – 18” & 6” Storm Drain
$17,316.61
4 3/11/2025 - Unload Material, buckets, etc. @ MJC yard $432.19 5 3/12/2025 - Demobilize all equipment $1,899.85
6 3/3/28/2025 – Payment Bond and Licensing $3,589.35
Total Repair Cost $110,909.23
The water main line break caused significant damage to the parking lot at 515 South Promenade. The Utilities Department (UD) solicited an informal bidding to four qualified contractors experienced in asphalt and concrete repairs and moved forward with CT&T Concrete Paving, Inc. as they were the lowest responsive bidder with the following quote:

Item Scope of Work Unit Quantity Cost Subtotal
1 Mobilization/Demobilization LS 1 $5,665 $5,665
2 Concrete Slab Installation CY 107 $516.74 $55,291.18

CT&T Concrete Paving, Inc. completed the parking lot restoration to minimize the adverse impact to the business at 515 South Promenade Avenue.

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.

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 emergency repair of the 30-inch transmission water main line and the restoration of the parking lot meets the definition of emergency as the immediate repair of the water main and parking lot asphalt and concrete at 515 South Promenade Avenue was essential to limit the impact on the business.

Staff requests that City Council terminate the emergency action for contracted emergency transmission main line and parking lot repairs as the work has been completed.

FINANCIAL IMPACT:

Funding for the recommended actions 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.

3.3.5 Prevailing Wages. Contractor is aware of the requirements of Chapter 1 (beginning at Section 1720 et seq.) of Part 7 of Division 2 of the California Labor Code, as well as Title 8, Section 16000 et seq. of the California Code of Regulations (“Prevailing Wage Laws”), which require the payment of prevailing wage rates and the performance of other requirements on “public works” and “maintenance” projects. If the Services are being performed as part of an applicable “public works” or “maintenance” project, as defined by the Prevailing Wage Laws, and if the Total Compensation is $1,000 or more, Contractor and its subcontractors shall fully comply with the Prevailing Wage Laws for their employees and any others to whom such laws are applicable. Contractor and its subcontractors shall also be responsible for any and all violations and fines imposed on them pursuant to the Prevailing Wage Laws. Pursuant to SB 854, which amended the Prevailing Wage Laws, this Agreement would also be subject to compliance monitoring and enforcement by the California Department of Industrial Relations (“DIR”). Beginning April 1, 2015, no contractor or subcontractor may be awarded this Agreement unless registered with the DIR pursuant to Labor Code Section 1725.5. The City will report all necessary agreements to the DIR as required by the Prevailing Wage Laws. Contractor shall make copies of the prevailing rates of per diem wages for each craft, classification or type of worker needed to execute the Services available to interested parties upon request and shall post copies at the Contractor’s principal place of business and at the Project site. It is most efficient for the Contractor to obtain a copy of the prevailing wages in effect at the commencement of this Agreement from the website of the Division of Labor Statistics and Research of the DIR located at www.dir.ca.gov/dlsr/. In the alternative, Contractor may obtain a copy of the prevailing wages from the City’s Representative. Contractor shall defend, indemnify and hold the City, its elected officials, officers, employees and agents free and harmless from any claim or liability arising out of any failure or alleged failure to comply with the Prevailing Wage Laws.

3.3.6 Apprenticeable Crafts. If the work is being performed as part of an applicable “public works” or “maintenance” project, as defined by the Prevailing Wage Laws, Contractor shall comply with the provisions of Section 1777.5 of the California Labor Code with respect to the employment of properly registered apprentices upon public works when Contractor employs workmen in an apprenticeable craft or trade. The primary responsibility for compliance with said section for all apprenticeable occupations shall be with Contractor.

3.4 Termination of Agreement.

3.4.1 Grounds for Termination. City may, by written notice to Contractor, terminate the whole or any part of this Agreement at any time and without cause by giving written notice to Contractor of such termination, and specifying the effective date thereof, at least seven (7) days before the effective date of such termination. Upon termination, Contractor shall be compensated only for those Services which have been adequately rendered to City, as well as any authorized reimbursable expenses, and Contractor shall be entitled to no further compensation.

REQUEST FOR CITY COUNCIL ACTION
SUBJECT:

RESOLUTION INITIATING PROCEEDINGS TO LEVY AND COLLECT ASSESSMENTS FOR FISCAL YEAR 2026 FOR LANDSCAPE MAINTENANCE DISTRICT NO. 84-2, ZONE 14, APPOINTING ENGINEER OF RECORD, AND ORDERING THE PREPARATION OF THE ENGINEER’S REPORT
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:

This staff report asks the City Council to consider staff’s recommendation to appoint Spicer Consulting Group, LLC to prepare the Engineer's Report necessary to levy and collect special assessments for Fiscal Year (FY) 2026 for Landscape Maintenance District No. 84-2, Zone 14. Landscape Maintenance District No. 84-2 was established in 1983 in accordance with the provisions of the Landscaping and Lighting Act of 1972 to provide maintenance, servicing, and operation of public landscaping and appurtenant facilities within the district boundaries. The State of California Street and Highways Code Section 22500 requires an annual review of the assessments levied by the special districts formed under the Landscape and Lighting Act of 1972.

RECOMMENDED ACTION:

That the City Council adopt Resolution No. 2025-024, initiating proceedings to levy and collect assessments for FY 2026 for Landscape Maintenance District No. 84-2, Zone 14 pursuant to the Landscaping and Lighting Act of 1972, appointing Engineer of Record, and ordering preparation of an Engineer’s Report.

BACKGROUND & HISTORY:

Landscape Maintenance District No. 84-2 (LMD 84-2) was established in 1983 in accordance with the provisions of the Landscape and Lighting Act of 1972 (the 1972 Act).

The purpose of this district was to provide the maintenance, servicing, and operation of public landscaping and appurtenant facilities within the district boundaries.

LMD 84-2 consists of 12 benefit zones. Each zone imposes a different assessment levy based on the benefit areas associated with that zone. Exhibit 1 illustrates the area boundaries of LMD 84-2, Zone 14.

The State of California Street and Highways Code Section 22500 requires an annual review of the assessments levied by the special districts formed under the 1972 Act. An engineer's report must be prepared to levy and collect special assessments within the districts. The Report provides details on the improvements maintained and the estimated budgets for each district.

ANALYSIS:

Staff recommends that the City Council appoint Spicer Consulting Group, LLC to prepare the Engineer's Reports necessary to levy and collect special assessments for FY 2026 for the above district. The consultant has extensive experience in assessment district financing and administration and was selected as the City’s special tax consulting service provider through a competitive process in January 2023.

The attached resolution initiates proceedings pursuant to the 1972 Act to levy and collect annual assessments within the district for the maintenance, servicing, and operation of public landscaping and appurtenant facilities within the district’s boundaries. The resolution also appoints Spicer Consulting Group, LLC, as Engineer of Record to prepare the Engineer's Report for the district in FY 2026.

FINANCIAL IMPACT:

The proposed annual fees of $3,181.72 for LMD 84-2, Zone 14 from Spicer Consulting Group, LLC are for the preparation of the Fiscal Year 2026 Engineer's Report, calculation of special assessments, submission of the annual levy, as well as other administrative tasks. The special assessment collected within the district will pay the cost and is included in the district's current 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 common sense 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 merely sets the special taxes to be levied and collected within the District for Fiscal Year 2026, and there is no possibility that adopting the resolution will have a significant effect on the environment. Therefore, no environmental analysis is required.

REQUEST FOR CITY COUNCIL ACTION
SUBJECT:

RESOLUTION INITIATING PROCEEDINGS TO LEVY AND COLLECT ASSESSMENTS FOR FISCAL YEAR 2026 FOR LANDSCAPE MAINTENANCE DISTRICT NO. 84-2, ZONE 20, APPOINTING ENGINEER OF RECORD, AND ORDERING THE PREPARATION OF THE ENGINEER’S REPORT
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:

This staff report asks the City Council to consider staff’s recommendation to appoint Spicer Consulting Group, LLC to prepare the Engineer's Report necessary to levy and collect special assessments for Fiscal Year (FY) 2026 for Landscape Maintenance District No. 84-2, Zone 20. Landscape Maintenance District No. 84-2 was established in 1983 in accordance with the provisions of the Landscaping and Lighting Act of 1972 to provide maintenance, servicing, and operation of public landscaping and appurtenant facilities within the district boundaries. The State of California Street and Highways Code Section 22500 requires an annual review of the assessments levied by the special districts formed under the Landscape and Lighting Act of 1972.

RECOMMENDED ACTION:

That the City Council adopt Resolution No. 2025-025, initiating proceedings to levy and collect assessments for FY 2026 for Landscape Maintenance District No. 84-2, Zone 20 pursuant to the Landscaping and Lighting Act of 1972, appointing Engineer of Record, and ordering preparation of an Engineer’s Report.

BACKGROUND & HISTORY:

Landscape Maintenance District 84-2 (LMD 84-2) was established in 1983 in accordance with the provisions of the Landscape and Lighting Act of 1972 (the 1972 Act). The district's purpose was to provide the maintenance, servicing, and operation of public landscaping and appurtenant facilities within the district boundaries.

LMD 84-2 consists of 12 benefit zones. Each zone imposes a different assessment levy based on the benefit areas associated with that zone. Exhibit 1 illustrates the area boundaries of LMD 84-2, Zone 20.

The State of California Street and Highways Code Section 22500 requires an annual review of the assessments levied by the special districts formed under the 1972 Act. To levy and collect special assessments within the districts, an Engineer's Report must be prepared, which provides details on the maintained improvements and the estimated budgets for each district.

ANALYSIS:

Staff recommends that the City Council appoint Spicer Consulting Group, LLC to prepare the Engineer's Reports necessary to levy and collect special assessments for FY 2026 for the above district. The consultant has extensive experience in assessment district financing and administration and was selected as the City’s special tax consulting service provider through a competitive process in January 2023.

The attached resolution initiates proceedings pursuant to the 1972 Act to levy and collect annual assessments within the district for the maintenance, servicing, and operation of public landscaping and appurtenant facilities within the district’s boundaries. The resolution also appoints Spicer Consulting Group, LLC as Engineer of Record to prepare the Engineer's Report for the district in FY 2026.

FINANCIAL IMPACT:

The proposed annual fees of $5,782.60 for LMD 84-2, Zone 20 from Spicer Consulting Group, LLC are for the preparation of the FY 2026 Engineer's Report, calculation of special assessments, submission of the annual levy, as well as other administrative tasks.

The special assessment collected within the district will pay the cost and is included in the district's current 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 common sense 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 merely sets the special taxes to be levied and collected within the District for Fiscal Year 2026, and there is no possibility that adopting the resolution will have a significant effect on the environment. Therefore, no environmental analysis is required.

REQUEST FOR CITY COUNCIL ACTION
SUBJECT:

RESOLUTION ADOPTING THE CITY OF CORONA UTILITIES DEPARTMENT 10- YEAR ENERGY EFFICIENCY TARGETS PURSUANT TO PUBLIC UTILITIES CODE § 9505
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:

This staff report asks the City Council to adopt a resolution approving the 10-Year Energy Efficiency Savings Targets, which identify all potentially achievable, cost-effective, reliable, and feasible energy efficiency savings opportunities per Public Utilities Code § 9505.

RECOMMENDED ACTION:

That the City Council:
a. Adopt Resolution 2025-019, approving the 10-Year Energy Efficiency Savings Targets for the Utilities Department.
b. Authorize the Utilities Director, or his designee, to approve all future updates to the 10-Year Energy Efficiency Savings Targets.

BACKGROUND & HISTORY:

Assembly Bill 2021 of 2006 was established to ensure that prudent investments in energy efficiency continue to produce cost-effective energy savings, reduce customer demand, reduce overall system costs, increase reliability, and increase public health and environmental benefits. The Legislature intended for electric utility providers to identify all cost-effective energy efficiency measures so the State can meet its goal of reducing total forecasted electrical consumption. Accordingly, the 10-year targets required by Public Utilities Code (PUC) § 9505 reflect a percentage of the Utilities Department's (UD) forecasted energy sales and the associated amount of energy. The City Council approved UD’s previous 10-year targets on May 5, 2021. To comply, UD and other California Municipal Utilities Association members worked with GDS Associates, Inc. to develop the energy efficiency savings targets for California’s publicly-owned utilities.

UD collects a State-mandated public benefits charge from bundled Greenfield customers, which funds various customer energy efficiency savings programs, income-qualified customer rate discounts, and UD’s battery energy storage power purchase costs. The energy efficiency savings program includes rebates on items such as smart thermostats, energy-efficient appliances, induction stoves, heat pumps, and air conditioners.

Greenfield customers who receive bundled electric services from the City can take advantage of these programs. Direct Access customers receive similar benefits from Southern California Edison. These programs help customers reduce their electricity costs and assist the utility in achieving their energy efficiency savings targets and related regulatory requirements.

ANALYSIS:

The 10-Year Energy Efficiency Savings Targets (2026-2035) are as follows:

GDS Associates, Inc. developed targets based on the energy efficiency programs UD currently has in place. The results also account for the unique characteristics of UD’s service area, customer base, climate zone, and economic conditions. The forecast model creates targets that are consistent with those of other publicly owned utilities of similar size and market base. The comparison-to-retail sales reflect the size of the publiclyowned utility.

UD's projected energy efficiency savings over the next 10-year period is 177-megawatt hours or an average of 18-megawatt hours annually, representing .02% percent of UD’s forecasted energy sales. All facilities in the City’s bundled customer base meet the California Energy Code Title 24 energy compliance requirements under the California Code of Regulations. As a result, these newer facilities provide fewer energy efficiency upgrade opportunities than older facilities.

PUC § 9505 does not expressly require that the governing board of a publicly-owned electric utility review or approve the 10-Year Energy Efficiency Savings Targets. In fact, it appears that most publicly-owned utilities approve the 10-Year Energy Efficiency Savings Targets administratively. Staff is recommending that in the future, the Utilities Director be authorized to approve any amendments or updates to the 10-Year Energy Efficiency Savings Targets pursuant to the requirements of PUC § 9505.

UD recommends that the City Council approve the 10-Year Energy Efficiency Savings Targets, as developed by the California Municipal Utilities Association Energy Efficiency Potential Forecasting study, and authorize the Utilities Director, or his designee, to approve all future updates to them.

FINANCIAL IMPACT:

Funds for energy efficiency projects are made available yearly in the electric operating budget through the annual budget preparation process.

ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS:

State CEQA Guidelines Section 15061(b)(3) 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 update the 10-Year Energy Efficiency Savings Targets, and there is no possibility that approving these changes will have a significant effect on the environment.

Therefore, no environmental analysis is required.

RESOLUTIONS INITIATING PROCEEDINGS TO LEVY AND COLLECT
ASSESSMENTS FOR FISCAL YEAR 2026 FOR LIGHTING MAINTENANCE DISTRICTS NO. 84-1 AND 2003-1, APPOINTING ENGINEER OF RECORD, AND ORDERING THE PREPARATION OF ENGINEER’S REPORTS
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:

This staff report asks the City Council to consider staff’s recommendation to appoint Spicer Consulting Group, LLC to prepare the Engineer's Report necessary to levy and collect special assessments for Fiscal Year (FY) 2026 for Lighting Maintenance Districts No. 84-1 and 2003-1. Lighting Maintenance Districts No. 84-1 and 2003-1 were established in 1983 and 2003 respectively, in accordance with the provisions of the Landscaping and Lighting Act of 1972 to provide lighting maintenance and operating services for the public street lighting, traffic signals, and appurtenant facilities within the districts’ boundaries. The State of California Street and Highways Code Section 22500 requires an annual review of the assessments levied by the special districts formed under the Landscape and Lighting Act of 1972.

RECOMMENDED ACTION:

That the City Council:
a. Adopt Resolution No. 2025-021, initiating proceedings to levy and collect assessments for Fiscal Year 2026 for Lighting Maintenance District No. 84-1

pursuant to the Landscaping and Lighting Act of 1972, appointing Engineer of Record, and ordering preparation of an Engineer’s Report. b. Adopt Resolution No. 2025-022, initiating proceedings to levy and collect assessments for Fiscal Year 2026 for Lighting Maintenance District No. 2003-1 pursuant to the Landscaping and Lighting Act of 1972, appointing Engineer of Record, and ordering preparation of an Engineer’s Report.

BACKGROUND & HISTORY:

Lighting Maintenance Districts Nos. 84-1 (LMD 84-1) and 2003-1 (LMD 2003-1) were established in 1983 and 2003, respectively, in accordance with the provisions of the Landscape and Lighting Act of 1972 (the 1972 Act). These districts provide lighting maintenance and operating services for the public street lighting, traffic signals, and appurtenant facilities within the district’s boundaries.

The benefit area of LMD 84-1 covers all of the original City boundaries in 1983 and annexation areas northwest of the City, as shown on Exhibit 1. The original boundary of LMD 2003-1 included the Corona Crossings and Dos Lagos developments. Since its formation, five developments have been annexed into LMD 2003-1. The current boundary of LMD 2003-1 is shown in Exhibit 2.

The State of California Street and Highways Code Section 22500 requires an annual review of the assessments levied by the special districts formed under the 1972 Act. An Engineer's Report must be prepared to levy and collect special assessments within the districts, which provides details on the maintained improvements and the estimated budgets for each district.

ANALYSIS:

Staff recommends that the City retain the services of Spicer Consulting Group, LLC to prepare the Engineer's Reports necessary to levy and collect special assessments for FY 2026 for the above districts. The consultant has extensive experience in assessment district financing and administration and was selected as the City’s special tax consulting service provider through a competitive process in January 2023.

The attached resolutions initiate the proceedings pursuant to the 1972 Act to levy and collect annual assessments within each district for the maintenance, servicing, and operation of public streetlights, traffic signals, and other improvements within each district's boundaries. The resolutions also appoint Spicer Consulting Group, LLC as Engineer of Record to prepare the Engineer's Reports for each district for FY 2026.

FINANCIAL IMPACT:

The proposed annual fees of $27,529 for LMD 84-1 and $4,495 for LMD 2003-1 from Spicer Consulting Group, LLC, are for preparing the Fiscal Year 2026 Engineer's Reports, calculating special assessments, submitting the annual levy, and other administrative

tasks. The special assessment collected within each district will pay the cost and is included in the district's current 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 common sense 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 merely sets the special taxes to be levied and collected within the Districts for Fiscal Year 2026, and there is no possibility that adopting the resolution will have a significant effect on the environment. Therefore, no environmental analysis is required.

RESOLUTION INITIATING PROCEEDINGS TO LEVY AND COLLECT
ASSSESSMENTS FOR FISCAL YEAR 2026 FOR LANDSCAPE MAINTENANCE DISTRICT NO. 84-2, ZONES 1, 2, 4, 6, 7, 10, 15, 17, 18, AND 19, APPOINTING ENGINEER OF RECORD, AND ORDERING THE PREPARATION OF ENGINEER’S REP
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:

This staff report asks the City Council to consider staff’s recommendation to appoint Spicer Consulting Group, LLC to prepare the Engineer’s Report necessary to levy and collect special assessments for Fiscal Year (FY) 2026 for Landscape Maintenance District No. 84-2, Zones 1, 2, 4, 6, 7, 10, 15, 17, 18, and 19. Landscape Maintenance District No. 84-2 was established in 1983 in accordance with the provisions of the Landscaping and Lighting Act of 1972 to provide the maintenance, servicing, and operation of public landscaping and appurtenant facilities within the district boundaries. The State of California Street and Highways Code Section 22500 requires an annual review of the assessments levied by the special districts formed under the 1972 Act.

RECOMMENDED ACTION:

That the City Council adopt Resolution No. 2025-023, initiating proceedings to levy and collect assessments for FY 2026 for landscape Maintenance District No. 84-2, Zones 1,

2, 4, 6, 7, 10, 15, 17, 18, and 19 pursuant to the Landscaping and Lighting Act of 1972, appointing Engineer of Record, and ordering the preparation of an Engineer’s Report.

BACKGROUND & HISTORY:

Landscape Maintenance District No. 84-2 (LMD 84-2) was established in 1983 in accordance with the provisions of the Landscaping and Lighting Act of 1972 (the 1972 Act). The district's purpose was to provide the maintenance, servicing, and operation of public landscaping and appurtenant facilities within the district boundaries.

LMD 84-2 consists of 12 benefit zones. Each zone imposes a different assessment levy based on the benefit areas associated with that zone. Exhibit 1 illustrates the area boundaries of LMD 84-2, Zones 1, 2, 4, 6, 7, 10, 15, 17, 18, and 19.

The State of California Street and Highways Code Section 22500 requires an annual review of the assessments levied by the special districts formed under the 1972 Act. An engineer's report must be prepared to levy and collect special assessments within the districts. The Report provides details on the improvements maintained and the estimated budgets for each district.

ANALYSIS:

Staff recommends that the City Council appoint Spicer Consulting Group, LLC to prepare the Engineer's Reports necessary to levy and collect special assessments for FY 2025 for the above district. The consultant has extensive experience in assessment district financing and administration and was selected as the City’s special tax consulting service provider through a competitive process in January 2023.

The attached resolution initiates proceedings pursuant to the 1972 Act to levy and collect annual assessments within the district for the maintenance, servicing, and operation of public landscaping and appurtenant facilities within the district’s boundaries. The resolution also appoints Spicer Consulting Group, LLC as Engineer of Record to prepare the Engineer's Report for the district in FY 2026.

FINANCIAL IMPACT:

The proposed annual fees of $17,441.04 for LMD 84-2, Zones 1, 2, 4, 6, 7, 10, 15, 17, 18, and 19 from Spicer Consulting Group, LLC are for the preparation of the FY 2026 Engineer's Report, calculation of special assessments, submission of annual levy, as well as other administrative tasks. The special assessment collected within the district will pay the cost and is included in the district's current 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 common sense 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 merely sets the special taxes to be levied and collected within the District for Fiscal Year 2026, and there is no possibility that adopting the resolution will have a significant effect on the environment. Therefore, no environmental analysis is required.
