TARGETED

UNDERGROUNDING

Temporarily shutting off power during
dangerous weather to prevent wildfires
▪ Reduces risk of wind and debris damaging power lines
and equipment
▪ Guided by science — fire scientists & meteorologists
forecast conditions
▪ Real-time field data from crews on the ground
Key triggers: Strong winds • Dry vegetation • Low humidity 4 PUBLIC SAFETY POWER

SHUTOFFS (PSPS)

• This year, PSPS could happen earlier, occur more
frequently, last longer and affect more customers.
• More than one-quarter of SCE’s service area is in
high fire risk areas.
• More of these customers could be in scope for
PSPS this year.
• More customers may experience a shutoff,
including some with limited or no prior PSPS
experience.
• When customers are notified about a potential
PSPS event, they are more likely to experience a
shutoff.
• SCE continues to evolve PSPS to improve safety and
reduce the risk of fires.

Actual weather behavior and wind patterns in 2026
will drive the decision to call for a PSPS.

WHAT’S NEW IN 2026?

SCE.com Check Outage Status Improvements
What are we doing
We’re updating the Check Outage Status page on SCE.com with a mobile-first, user-friendly design to make it easier for customers to access timely outage information—especially on mobile devices.

Why it matters
These enhancements are a direct result of customer feedback we received from the January 2025 wildfires and PSPS events. These improvements support our goals to improve digital self-service, reduce call center volume, and build trust by delivering a better experience during critical outage situations.

FIRE

POTENTIAL

INDEX (FPI)
Formula estimates the
potential of fire ignition
and spread

WINDSPEED

THRESHOLD FOR

ACTIVATION
Wind speeds at which our
system is vulnerable to
flying debris or that pose a
risk to our infrastructure
Bare wire circuits: The lower of the National Weather Service’s Wind Advisory level of sustained wind speeds of 31 mph or gusts of 46 mph or when speeds reach levels unusual for the localized area.

Fully covered conductor circuits: National Weather Service’s High Wind Warning of sustained windspeeds of 40 mph or gusts of 58 mph.

Baseline FPI for SCE’s 11 Fire Climate Zones is based on risk analysis of historical fire data. Baseline FPI thresholds:
• Most zones set at 13
• One zone set at 12 and another at 11
Thresholds represent FPI levels that coincide with large fire activity.

To prevent rapid escalation and surpassing criteria, we may de-energize early if real-time trends indicate thresholds are likely to be met.

Decision-making fact sheet available at sce.com/psps
14 THRESHOLDS FOR DISTRIBUTION CIRCUITS
The baseline wind speed threshold is adjusted based on circuit, environment and event specific factors to determine actual circuit specific de-energization values for each event.

When event or location specific conditions suggest more risk, the baseline FPI thresholds will be reduced to help protect community safety.

• Updating some fast
curve settings in high
fire risk areas to more
sensitively detect
faults and turn off
power even more
quickly.
• Align with settings
used by other
California utilities.
• SCE is working to
increase its use of
drones during PSPS
patrols to support
efficient inspections
and power
restoration.

PSPS DRONE

PATROLS
• When forecasts
indicate that high-risk
circuits will be
subjected to unusually
high wind speeds, we
may turn off power at
lower wind speed
thresholds, earlier in
the event.

MODIFICATIONS FOR

HIGH-RISK CIRCUITS
• FPI is an enhanced
wildfire risk index that
includes a refined
analysis of weather
and vegetation
conditions.
• SCE’s approach to FPI
will impact PSPS
scope, frequency and
conditions for
deenergization.

REQUEST FOR CITY COUNCIL ACTION
SUBJECT:

ZONE TEXT AMENDMENT 2026-0002 ALLOWING RELIGIOUS FACILITIES UP TO 10,000 SQUARE FEET OF TOTAL FLOOR AREA AS A CONDITIONALLY PERMITTED USE IN THE M‑4 INDUSTRIAL PARK ZONE, AND REVISING TITLE 17 TO REPLACE THE TERM CHURCH WITH

RELIGIOUS FACILITIES
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:

This staff report asks the City Council to approve Zone Text Amendment 2026-0002 to revise Corona Municipal Code Section 17.44.030 to allow religious facilities not exceeding a combined floor area of 10,000 square feet as a conditionally permitted use within the M-4 (Industrial Park) Zone. Additionally, the text amendment updates various sections of Title 17 (Zoning) by replacing the term “church” with “religious facilities”, a more inclusive terminology for all faith-based uses. The Planning and Housing Commission has reviewed and recommended approval of the amendments to the City Council.

RECOMMENDED ACTION:

That the City Council:
a. Approve Zone Text Amendment 2026-0002, as recommended by the Planning and Housing Commission.

b. Introduce, by title only, and waive full reading of consideration of Ordinance No. 3428, first reading of an ordinance amending Section 17.44.030 of Title 17 (Zoning) of the Corona Municipal Code to allow religious facilities not exceeding 10,000 square feet as a conditionally permitted use within the M-4 (Industrial Park) Zone, and amending various other sections in Title 17 to replace the term “Churches” with “Religious Facilities” (ZTA2026-0002).

BACKGROUND
The subject zone text amendment is a request by Bruce Rouman from the Congregation Beth Shalom to amend Chapter 17.44 (Industrial Zones) under Title 17 (Zoning Ordinance) of the Corona Municipal Code (CMC) to allow religious facilities with an overall combined floor area not exceeding 10,000 square feet as a conditionally permitted use in the M-4 (Industrial Park) zone.

The Congregation Beth Shalom is pursuing the purchase of an existing 4,853-square-foot office building located at 536 Queensland Circle, with the goal of relocating their congregation from 500 Harington Street to the new site. This new building site is within an industrial park that is zoned M-4.

ANALYSIS:

ZTA2026-0002 would amend Section 17.44.030 of Chapter 17.44 as provided below.

Section 17.44.030 Permitted uses, conditional uses, prohibited uses Table 1 PERMITTED LAND USES
Use categories:
“AUPP” - Adult use planning permit.
“P” - Permitted uses.
“CUP” - Permitted with a conditional use permit issued pursuant to Chapter 17.92. “MCUP” - Permitted with a minor conditional use permit pursuant to Chapter 17.92. “BZA” - Permitted with approval by the Board of Zoning Adjustment pursuant to Chapter 17.98. “NP” - Not permitted.
“A” - Permitted as Ancillary Use to a Permitted Use.
“CCP” - Permitted with a commercial cannabis permit issued pursuant to Chapter 5.36.

MCUP NP NP NP MCUP
A church is currently allowed in the M-1 zone with approval of a Minor Conditional Use Permit (MCUP). Both the M-1 and M-4 zones support similar industrial uses that typically result in minimal environmental impacts related to noise, vibration, smoke, odors, or hazardous materials, and are therefore generally suitable for sites near residential and

commercial areas. Smaller religious facilities share operational characteristics that are generally compatible with both zonings in that they typically operate during the day with limited outdoor activity, and group services typically occur outside of typical business hours, resulting in a lower parking demand for the business park.

An application for a MCUP for a religious facility in the M-4 zone would be subject to discretionary review by the City through the MCUP process to address any site-specific issues such as traffic, parking, vehicular circulation, building and fire code compliance, and hours of operation, to minimize impacts to surrounding industrial and other uses.

The City recognizes and accommodates all religious communities, including but not limited to, synagogues, mosques, temples, and other faith-based organizations. Replacing the existing term “church” with “religious facilities” would provide a more neutral description for places of worship, acknowledging that religious gatherings and institutions serve a wide array of religions beyond those typically associated with the term “church.” FINANCIAL IMPACT:

The applicant paid the application processing fees of $3,561.78 to cover the cost of the Zone Text Amendment.

ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS:

Per Section 15061(b)(3) of the State Guidelines for Implementing the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and Section 3.06 of the City’s Local CEQA Guidelines, a Notice of Exemption has been prepared as a project shall be exempted 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. The proposed amendment involves text revisions to the Industrial Zones Land Use Table and various other sections within Chapter 17 of the Corona Municipal Code that, in and of themselves, will not result in any significant effects to the environment.

PLANNING AND HOUSING COMMISSION ACTION:

At its meeting of May 27, 2026, the Planning and Housing Commission considered the subject matter and took the following action:

Motion was made, seconded (Woody/Siqueland) and carried with Commissioner Longwell voting “No”, that the Planning and Housing Commission recommend approval of ZTA2026- 0002 to the City Council, based on the findings and conditions contained in the staff report.

The minutes of the Planning and Housing Commission meeting are included as Exhibit 5.

ORDINANCE NO. 3428

AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY OF CORONA,
CALIFORNIA, AMENDING SECTION 17.44.030 OF TITLE
17 (ZONING) OF THE CORONA MUNICIPAL CODE TO

ALLOW RELIGIOUS FACILITIES NOT EXCEEDING
10,000 SQUARE FEET AS A CONDITIONALLY
PERMITTED USE WITHIN THE M-4 (INDUSTRIAL PARK)

ZONE, AND AMENDING VARIOUS OTHER SECTIONS IN
TITLE 17 TO REPLACE THE TERM “CHURCHES” WITH
“RELIGIOUS FACILITIES” (ZTA2026-0002).

WHEREAS, Article XI, § 7 of the California Constitution authorizes cities to make and enforce within their jurisdictional limits ordinances and regulations not in conflict with general laws to protect and promote the public health, safety, and welfare of its citizens; and WHEREAS, Chapter 17.44 of the Corona Municipal Code (“CMC”) sets forth the general standards and regulations for industrial zones within the City; and WHEREAS, on May 27, 2026, the Planning and Housing Commission of the City of Corona (“Planning Commission”) conducted a duly noticed public hearing and recommended that the City Council amend: (a) Section 17.44.030 (Permitted uses; conditional uses; prohibited uses) of Chapter 17.74 (Industrial Zones) of Title 17 (Zoning) of the CMC to allow religious facilities not exceeding 10,000 square feet in floor area as a conditionally permitted use within the M-4 (Industrial Park) zone; and (b) any other sections of Title 17 (Zoning) of the CMC that refer to the term “churches” to replace the term “churches” with “religious facilities” (ZTA 2026-0002) (“Zone Text Amendment”); and
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission based its recommendation to adopt the Zone Text Amendment on the findings set forth below; and WHEREAS, on September 3, 2025, the City Council held a duly noticed public hearing at which all persons wishing to testify in connection with this Zone Text Amendment were heard and this Zone Text Amendment was comprehensively reviewed.

NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF CORONA DOES ORDAIN AS FOLLOWS:

SECTION 1. CEQA Findings. As the decision-making body for this Zone Text Amendment, the City Council finds that 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

2 question may have a significant effect on the environment, the activity is not subject to CEQA. This action involves minor changes to the text of the Zoning Code to permit religious facilities that do not exceed 10,000 square feet in size within the M-4 (Industrial Park) zone. This action involves no physical impacts and does not modify density or capacity. As such, there is no possibility that adopting this Ordinance will have a significant effect on the environment.

Therefore, no environmental analysis is required.

SECTION 2. Zoning Findings. Based on the entire record before the City Council and all written and oral evidence presented to the City Council, the City Council hereby makes and adopts the following findings:

A. The proposed Zone Text Amendment is consistent with the General Plan and applicable specific plans for the following reason:
(i) ZTA2026-0002 is consistent with the following General Plan Land Use Element Policies 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, provide opportunities for the diverse needs of Corona’s residents for social and spiritual activity, and facilitates a self-sustaining community that will minimize needs for travel to surrounding communities.
(a) 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.
(b) LU-1.1: Accommodate uses that support the diverse needs of Corona’s residents, including opportunities for living, commerce, employment, recreation, education, culture, entertainment, civic engagement, and social and spiritual activity that are in balance with natural open spaces.
(c) LU-1.2: Emphasize the development of uses that sustain Corona as a cohesive, distinct, and self-sustaining community and minimize the need for residents to travel to surrounding communities for retail goods, services, and employment.

B. The proposed Zone Text Amendment is consistent with Title 17 of the Corona Municipal Code for the following reason:
(i) Title 17 is intended to promote orderly land use patterns, protect the public health, safety, and welfare, and ensure compatibility among land uses. ZTA2026-0002 is consistent with these purposes because it would allow religious facilities only through discretionary review, thereby ensuring that each proposed use is evaluated on a case-by-case basis for compatibility with surrounding industrial uses and compliance with applicable development

3 and operational standards. In addition, the Zone Text Amendment recognizes that certain religious facilities, particularly smaller facilities with limited occupancy and primarily indoor activities, may operate compatibility within industrial and business park areas during off-peak business hours when parking demand is reduced. As such, the proposed amendment is consistent with the overall intent of Title 17 of the CMC.

C. The proposed Zone Text Amendment will provide for the public health, safety and welfare for the following reason:
(i) ZTA2026-0002 would permit religious facilities within the M-4 zone. Permitted land uses in the M-1 and M-4 zones share notable similarities, with both allowing uses with minimal environmental impact, such as offices, studios, showrooms with restricted retail activity, and sports training facilities, all of which are generally well-suited for adjacent residential and commercial areas, as they typically occur indoors and generate minimal impacts related to traffic, circulation, noise, vibration, smoke, odors, or hazardous materials. Additionally, a religious facility will require the discretionary approval of a Minor Conditional Use Permit (MCUP) by the City’s Board of Zoning Adjustment. As part of the MCUP process, the establishment of a religious facility in the M-4 zone would be subject to conditions of approval which would serve to protect public health, safety, convenience, and general welfare of the public, in accordance with the intent and purpose of the City’s zoning regulations.

SECTION 3. Zoning Text Amendment. ZTA2026-0002 is hereby approved.

SECTION 4. Amendment to Section 17.04.114. Section 17.04.114 (Church) of Chapter 17.04 (Definitions) of Title 17 (Zoning) of the CMC is hereby deleted.

SECTION 5. Addition of Section 17.04.506. Section 17.04.114 (Church) of Chapter 17.04 (Definitions) of Title 17 (Zoning) of the CMC is hereby deleted. “17.04.506 Religious facility.
"Religious facility" means a permanently located building or tenant space within a permanently located building commonly used for religious worship, fully enclosed with walls (including windows and doors), having a roof (canvas or fabric excluded) and conforming to applicable legal requirements affecting design and construction.”
SECTION 6. Amendment to Section 17.33.030. Table 1-17.33 in Section

17.33.030 (Permitted uses; conditional uses; prohibited uses) of Chapter 17.33 (Commercial & Office Zones) of Title 17 (Zoning) of the CMC is hereby amended to change references to “church” to “religious facilities” as set forth below:

SECTION 7. Amendment to Section 17.35.010. Section 17.35.010 (Purpose) of Chapter 17.35 (Quasi-Public Zones) of Title 17 (Zoning) of the CMC is hereby amended in its entirety to read as follows:
“17.35.010 Purpose.

The purpose of the Quasi-Public (QP) District is to establish a location for government or other public-serving uses that are necessary to serve the dayto-day needs of the city’s residents. These uses often involve moderate traffic and thus may require better access than would be afforded by a local residential street. These include uses such as fire stations, post offices, libraries, government centers, child care facilities, religious facilities and professional offices.”
SECTION 8. Amendment to Section 17.35.020. Subsection (B) of Section

17.35.020 (Permitted uses and structures) of Chapter 17.35 (Quasi-Public Zones) of Title 17 (Zoning) of the CMC is hereby amended in its entirety to read as follows:
“(B) Public and quasi-public facilities and service uses, including, but not limited to, the following:
(1) Fire stations;

5 (2) Post offices;
(3) Libraries;
(4) Government centers;
(5) Day care facilities;
(6) Religious facilities or other places of religious assembly; (7) Recreation centers;
(8) Health clubs.”
SECTION 9. Amendment to Section 17.41.010. Subsections (E) and (G) of Section 17.41.010 (Findings) of Chapter 17.41 (Adult Use Zoning Regulations) of Title 17 (Zoning) of the CMC are hereby amended in their entirety to read as follows:
“(E) The special regulation of adult businesses is necessary to ensure that their adverse secondary effects will not contribute to an increase in the crime rates or the blighting or downgrading of the areas in which they are located or surrounding areas. The need for the special regulation is based on the recognition that adult businesses have serious objectionable operational characteristics, particularly when several of them are concentrated under certain circumstances or located in direct proximity with sensitive uses such as residential zones and uses, parks, schools, religious facilities or day care centers, thereby having a deleterious effect upon the adjacent areas.”
“(G) The protection and preservation of the public health, safety, and welfare require that certain distances be maintained between adult businesses and residential uses and zones, religious facilities, schools, day care centers, parks, and other adult businesses.”
SECTION 10. Amendment to Section 17.41.040. Subsection (A) of Section

Subsections (B) and (D) of Section 17.84.040 (Noise) of Chapter 17.84 (Performance Standards) of Title 17 (Zoning) of the CMC is hereby amended in their entirety to read as follows:
“(B) Definitions. Terms found in this chapter shall be defined as follows.

Additional definitions are found in the noise element of the General Plan. (1) “A-weighted sound level.” The sound pressure level in decibels as measured on a sound level meter using the A-weighted filter network. The A-weighted filter network is designed to simulate the response of the human ear. The A-weighted sound level is expressed by the symbol dBA. (2) “Ambient noise.” The composite of noise from all existing sources near and far. The ambient noise level constitutes the normal or existing level of environmental noise at a given location, excluding any alleged offensive noise.
(3) “Cumulative period.” An additive period of time composed of individual time segments which may be continuous or interrupted. (4) “Community noise equivalent level (CNEL).” The average equivalent A-weighted sound level during a 24 hour day, obtained after addition of five decibels to sound levels between 7:00 p.m. and 10:00 p.m. and the addition of ten decibels to sound levels between 10:00 p.m. and 7:00 a.m.
(5) “Decibel (dB).” A unit for measuring the amplitude of a sound, equal to 20 times the logarithm to the base 10 of the ratio of the pressure of the sound measured to the reference pressure, which is 20 micropascals. (6) “Impulsive noise.” A noise of short duration, usually less than one second, and of high intensity, with an abrupt onset and rapid decay.

9 (7) “Noise study.” An acoustical analysis performed by a qualified noise engineer which determines the potential noise impacts of a roadway, land use or operation of equipment. The noise study will generate noise contours and recommend mitigation for noise impacts which exceed the city’s noise standards.
(8) “Sensitive land uses.” Those specific land uses which have associated human activities that may be subject to stress or significant interference from noise. Sensitive land uses include single family residential, multiple family residential, religious facilities, hospitals and similar health care institutions, convalescent homes, libraries and school classroom areas.
(9) “Simple tone noise.” A noise characterized by a predominant frequency or frequencies so that other frequencies cannot be readily distinguished. When measured, a simple tone noise shall exist if the onethird octave band sound pressure levels in the band with the tone exceeds the arithmetic average of the sound pressure levels of the two continuous one-third octave bands as follows: 5 dB for frequencies of 500 hertz or above or by 15 dB for frequencies less than or equal to 125 hertz. (10) “Sound attenuation device.” An enclosure, blanket, vault, box, wall, fence, panel, baffle, coating, material, silencer, or other appurtenance, mechanism, or device intended to reduce the noise level of mechanical equipment.”
“(D) Special provisions.
(1) Mechanical equipment in residential zones. Upon application for a building permit to install mechanical equipment, such as air conditioner and pool equipment, in a residential zone, the equipment shall be setback at least ten feet from an adjoining property line except where a five foot high block sound wall is maintained extending a distance of two feet on each side of such equipment and situated either between such equipment and the property line or on said property line. Exception: Mechanical equipment in residential zones shall be permitted closer than ten feet from an adjoining property line without a five foot high block sound wall when sound attenuation devices approved by the Building Official are installed. The noise level with sound attenuation devices installed shall comply with the limits and conditions specified in § 17.84.040(C)(2) when measured from any adjoining property. The approved sound attenuation devices shall be maintained and any approvals shall not be construed to permit violations of this code.
(2) Construction noise. Construction noise is prohibited between the hours of 8:00 p.m. to 7:00 a.m., Monday through Saturday and 6:00 p.m. to 10:00 a.m. on Sundays and federal holidays. Construction noise is defined as noise which is disturbing, excessive or offensive and constitutes a nuisance involving discomfort or annoyance to persons of normal

10 sensitivity residing in the area, which is generated by the use of any tools, machinery or equipment used in connection with construction operations. (3) Noise devices. In accordance with Chapter 9.24, no loudspeaker, bells, gongs, buzzers, mechanical equipment or other sounds, attentionattracting or communication device associated with any use adjacent to residential or sensitive land uses shall be discernible beyond the boundary line of the parcel, except fire protection devices, burglar alarms and religious facility bells. Noise generated by these sources shall be enforced by the Police Department.
(4) Noisy animals. Noise generated by animals shall be regulated by the Police Department in accordance with Chapter 6.11.” SECTION 16. Amendment to Section 17.92.040. The Table in subsection (A) of Section 17.92.040 (Conditionally permitted uses – Agricultural and residential zones) of Chapter

REQUEST FOR CITY COUNCIL ACTION
SUBJECT:

ORDINANCE AMENDING CHAPTERS 10.48 AND 12.24 OF THE CORONA

MUNICIPAL CODE TO UPDATE REGULATIONS REGARDING THE OPERATION OF

BICYCLES AND ELECTRIC BICYCLES
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:

This staff report asks the City Council to approve first reading of an ordinance amending Corona Municipal Code (CMC) Chapter 10.48 (Bicycles) and Chapter 12.24 (Parks and Recreation Areas) to incorporate electric bicycles (e-bikes) into the City’s bicycle regulations, add sidewalk and trail safety requirements, address bicycle and e-bike use in City parks, provide an education-based enforcement alternative for first-time juvenile violators, and repeal obsolete provisions of Chapter 10.48. The proposed amendments reflect the direction provided by the City Council at its April 15, 2026 meeting and are intended to improve safety for riders, pedestrians, and motorists.

RECOMMENDED ACTION:

That the City Council introduce, by title only, and waive full reading of Ordinance No. 3430 amending Chapters 10.48 and 12.24 of the Corona Municipal Code to update regulations regarding the operation of bicycles and electric bicycles.

BACKGROUND & HISTORY:

Corona Municipal Code (CMC) Chapter 10.48 regulates bicycles within the City but does not currently address electric bicycles (e-bikes), which are now defined by California Vehicle Code (CVC) Section 312.5 in three classes based on speed and operation.

Chapter 10.48 also contains an extensive bicycle registration and licensing scheme dating from 1978 that the City no longer administers, and its existing provision addressing juvenile violations allows only for impoundment of a minor’s bicycle for up to 30 days. The chapter does not include sidewalk-specific safety requirements aimed at protecting pedestrians, and neither Chapter 10.48 nor Chapter 12.24 (Parks and Recreation Areas) clearly addresses e-bike use in City parks.

E-bike collisions in Corona have risen from zero in 2020 to 25 in 2025, with increasing juvenile involvement, while traditional bicycle collisions have remained steady over the same period. On April 15, 2026, the Police Department presented to the City Council a proposed approach for amending Chapter 10.48 to address e-bikes through three primary changes: (1) updating the bicycle definition and related requirements to include e-bikes; (2) updating the prohibited-behavior language; and (3) adding sidewalk riding safety requirements. The City Council received the presentation, heard public comment, and directed staff to return with proposed ordinance language incorporating Council’s input.

In preparing the proposed ordinance, staff incorporated the direction provided by Council and also took the opportunity to modernize Chapter 10.48 as a whole, repeal obsolete provisions, and make conforming amendments to Chapter 12.24 so that bicycle and ebike use in City parks is addressed directly. This staff report and the attached ordinance reflect that work.

ANALYSIS:

At the April 15, 2026 meeting, the City Council and members of the public discussed the Police Department’s proposed approach and provided direction on several aspects of the proposed amendments. Staff has incorporated that direction into the proposed ordinance attached as Exhibit 1. The key elements of the proposed amendments, and how to the amendments implement the direction provided by Council, are summarized below.

Application to Electric Bicycles and Updated Definitions (Section 10.48.010) The definitions in Section 10.48.010 have been revised so that the term “bicycle” has the same meaning as set forth in California Vehicle Code Section 231, which includes electric bicycles, and so that “electric bicycle” (or “e-bike”) has the same meaning as California Vehicle Code Section 312.5, thereby incorporating the State’s three-class system.

Because e-bikes now fall within the defined term “bicycle,” all of the operating, safety, and enforcement provisions of Chapter 10.48 apply equally to electric bicycles and traditional bicycles without the need to restate each requirement separately.

Repeal of Obsolete Provisions and Reorganization of the Chapter Chapter 10.48 contains a bicycle registration and licensing program dating from 1978, including mandatory registration, license tabs, ownership-transfer filings, change-ofPage 65 of 3613 address notices, dealer recordkeeping, and related provisions. The City no longer administers the bicycle registration program. The proposed ordinance repeals these obsolete sections and renumbers the remaining provisions for clarity. The provisions requiring the maintenance of a bicycle’s serial number have been retained so that it remains unlawful to operate a bicycle when its serial number has been removed, altered, or mutilated, in order to preserve a tool for investigating bicycle theft. The separate equipment section has been deleted because equivalent lamp and reflector requirements for operation during darkness are already established statewide by California Vehicle Code Section 21201 and continue to apply in Corona without a duplicative local provision.

Modernized Operating Procedures (Section 10.48.050)
The operating procedures section, renumbered as Section 10.48.050, has been updated with descriptive subsection headings. Substantive updates include clarifying that a passenger must ride on a seat designed for the number of persons on the bicycle—which accommodates, for example, a parent riding with a young child on a properly designed seat, and consolidating the turning and roadway-crossing provisions. Consistent with Council’s direction to preserve officer discretion rather than enumerate a list of specific maneuvers, the general prohibition on trick riding that is dangerous to the rider or others is retained without change.

Sidewalk Riding in Business Districts (Section 10.48.050(P)) Council asked staff to consider whether the existing prohibition on sidewalk riding in business districts should be retained. Staff recommends retaining it, and the proposed ordinance clarifies the prohibition by tying the term “business district” to the definition in California Vehicle Code Section 2351.

California Vehicle Code Section 21206, authorizes cities to adopt ordinances regulating the parking and operation of bicycles on pedestrian facilities provided such regulations do not conflict with the Vehicle Code. A regulation that prohibits riding a bicycle on sidewalks in a business district is the most common way California cities exercise that authority. Staff recommends that this prohibition be retained based on the following safety considerations:

1. Driveway and intersection conflicts. Business districts have the highest concentration of driveways, alleys, and parking-lot entrances. Drivers entering, exiting, and turning at these points scan the roadway for traffic and do not anticipate a faster-moving bicycle approaching along the sidewalk, particularly one traveling opposite the adjacent flow of traffic. This sidewalk-to-driveway conflict is the most common cause of bicycle collisions in the City’s business corridors.

2. High and unpredictable pedestrian volumes. Business-district sidewalks carry the densest pedestrian traffic, including patrons entering and exiting storefronts,

1 Vehicle Code Section 235 defines a “business district” as that portion of a highway and the property contiguous thereto (a) upon one side of which highway, for a distance of 600 feet, 50 percent or more of the contiguous property fronting thereon is occupied by buildings in use for business, or (b) upon both sides of which highway, collectively, for a distance of 300 feet, 50 percent or more of the contiguous property fronting thereon is so occupied.

outdoor diners, and pedestrians who may not be able to react quickly, creating direct collision exposure.

3. Fixed obstructions and obstructed sight lines. Storefront doors, outdoor dining, signage, and parked vehicles create fixed and moving obstacles and block the lines of sight between riders, pedestrians, and turning drivers, so each may appear to the other without warning.

4. E-bikes magnify each of these risks. E-bikes are heavier and can sustain higher speeds than the walking-pace movement expected on a sidewalk, which lengthens stopping distances, shortens reaction time, and increases injury severity in a collision. In the densest pedestrian environment in the City, a flat prohibition provides clearer protection than a speed limit alone.

5. Clarity and regional consistency. A bright-line prohibition is easier to understand, post, and enforce than a discretionary standard; it channels riders onto the roadway and bikeways where drivers expect them; and it keeps Corona consistent with neighboring jurisdictions and Riverside County.

Numerous jurisdictions in the Inland Empire and Orange County maintain comparable prohibitions on sidewalk riding in business districts, or broader sidewalk prohibitions that necessarily include them. In the Inland Empire, Riverside County Ordinance 995 (2025) prohibits Class 2 electric bicycles on sidewalks within any business district and prohibits Class 3 electric bicycles from all sidewalks and trails unless signage specifically allows it, based on an express finding that unregulated e-bike use on sidewalks and trails presents a health and safety hazard to pedestrians. The City of Riverside prohibits sidewalk bicycle riding altogether except where signs permit it. In Orange County, the City of Huntington Beach prohibits bicycle riding on any sidewalk within a business district (and adjacent to schools, churches, recreation centers, and playgrounds, and on crosswalks and pedestrian overcrossings); the City of Santa Ana prohibits sidewalk riding within its business district and civic-center area; the City of Irvine prohibits sidewalk riding within its business district and civic center; and the City of Newport Beach prohibits bicycle riding on any sidewalk citywide.

Additional Sidewalk and Trail Safety Requirements (Section 10.48.050(I), (Q), and (R))
Where sidewalk riding is permitted (outside business districts), the proposed ordinance adds the following safety requirements responsive to Council’s direction:
 Subsection (I) provides that a rider shall not operate faster than is reasonably safe and proper and in no event faster than 10 miles per hour on any sidewalk or trail unless otherwise posted.
 Subsection (Q) requires riders to travel in the same direction as the flow of traffic on the adjacent roadway whenever practicable.
 Subsection (R) requires riders, when on sidewalks or trails, to yield to pedestrians and to provide an audible warning when passing pedestrians or other bicycles.

Although a lower sidewalk speed was discussed, staff recommends the 10 mph standard to remain consistent with the limit contemplated in pending state legislation that would establish a 10 mph sidewalk speed limit statewide. Aligning

with the anticipated state standard would avoid the need to re-sign City sidewalks if that legislation is enacted.

Bicycle and E-Bike Use in City Parks (Section 10.48.050(J) and Chapter 12.24) Council asked staff to address bicycle and e-bike use in City parks. The proposed ordinance does so in two ways. First, new Section 10.48.050(J) prohibits riding on playgrounds, open fields, sports fields, and turf or landscaped areas within any public park. Second, the ordinance makes conforming amendments to Chapter 12.24 (Parks and Recreation Areas): it defines “bicycle” in that chapter by reference to Section

10.48.010 so that e-bikes are included, expressly lists bicycles among the devices that may not be operated recklessly in a park, and revises Section 12.24.030(BB) to provide that bicycles, skateboards, roller skates, in-line skates, and non-motorized scooters may be operated within a park only on designated walkways and sidewalks and only in compliance with Chapter 10.48, while motorized scooters, go-carts, and similar devices remain prohibited. Because Chapter 12.24 already provides for ejection from a park as an enforcement tool, that authority is retained.

Violations, Penalties, and Education Alternative (Sections 10.48.060 and 12.24.040) The enforcement provisions of both chapters are restructured for clarity and consistency.

A general provision establishes that violations may be enforced under Chapter 1.08 of the Code. Responsive to Council’s emphasis on prioritizing education over punitive enforcement for juvenile riders, the ordinance provides that, for a minor’s first violation, the enforcement officer may allow the minor to complete a bicycle safety educational course approved by the Chief of Police in lieu of citation; the violation is still counted as a first violation for purposes of escalating penalties on any subsequent violation. The ordinance also provides that the parent or legal guardian of an unemancipated minor is jointly and severally liable for any fine imposed on the minor, and that the listed remedies are cumulative.

Repeal of Impoundment Provision and Limitations on Seizure of E-Bikes The existing Section 10.48.140 authorizes the Chief of Police to prohibit operation of a juvenile violator’s bicycle for up to 30 days by impounding the bicycle and holding the owner’s registration certificate. Staff recommends repealing this provision. At the April 15, 2026 meeting, Council also asked staff to consider whether the City could seize e-bikes from riders who repeatedly violate the regulations. The City Attorney’s office has advised that the City lacks the legal authority to impound e-bikes on that basis, and staff therefore does not recommend retaining the existing impoundment provision or adding a general seizure provision. The analysis supporting this conclusion is summarized below.

1. California Vehicle Code Section 22651.08 authorizes removal of a Class 3 electric bicycle (capable of speeds up to 28 mph) only when the operator is under 16 years of age. It does not authorize removal of Class 1 or Class 2 electric bicycles (both limited to 20 mph), and no other statutory or case law authority was identified that would permit impoundment of an e-bike for other violations.

2. California Vehicle Code Section 21 preempts local agencies from enacting ordinances on matters addressed by the Vehicle Code unless the local regulation is expressly authorized by the Vehicle Code. Because the Vehicle Code specifies

the limited circumstances in which an e-bike may be impounded and does not otherwise authorize impoundment by local ordinance, Section 21 would likely prohibit the City from adopting an ordinance allowing impoundment of e-bikes for general violations of the CMC.

3. Although Vehicle Code Section 21206 allows local agencies to regulate the registration, parking, and operation of bicycles, the City Attorney’s office has advised that the section does not expressly authorize impoundment; it addresses operational and parking requirements only.

Repealing the existing impoundment provision therefore removes authority that the City cannot lawfully exercise. Importantly, this does not eliminate every impoundment tool: the City retains its authority under Vehicle Code Section 22651.08 to impound a Class 3 ebike operated by a person under 16, and the Police Department retains the ability to seize an e-bike as evidence in connection with a crime or a collision. For these reasons, the proposed ordinance relies on the first-violation education option, the escalating administrative penalty structure, and parental responsibility for fines, rather than impoundment, as the City’s principal enforcement tools for juvenile riders.

Modifications to E-Bikes and Parental Responsibility
Council asked staff to consider addressing modifications to e-bikes and parental responsibility. California Vehicle Code Section 312.5(d) already prohibits modifying an electric bicycle to exceed 20 miles per hour on motor power alone, to exceed 750 watts of power, or to remove its operable pedals, and provides that any vehicle so modified is no longer an electric bicycle under State law. Staff believes this statute is sufficient for PD to address any issues with e-bikes being modified.

Off-Highway Electric Motorcycles and Towing
Public comment at the April 15, 2026 meeting raised concerns about towing fees associated with certain e-bike-style vehicles. As clarified at that meeting, the City’s tow fees apply to illegal off-highway electric motorcycles operated unlawfully on City streets, sidewalks, or bike paths in violation of California Vehicle Code Section 436.1, and do not apply to lawful electric bicycles as defined by State Law. The proposed amendments do not change the City’s authority to tow with respect to off-highway electric motorcycles.

Penalty Structure and Parental Liability
Council asked staff to consider an escalating penalty structure for repeat violators.

Violations of Title 10 are infractions under CMC Section 10.64.010, and CMC Section

1.08.025 already establishes escalating penalties of $100 for a first offense, $200 for a second offense within one year, and $500 for each additional offense within a year. This structure is consistent with the penalties established by Riverside County Ordinance 995 and will apply to violations of the chapters 10.48 and 12.24 as amended.

California Civil Code Section 1714.1 establishes parental civil liability for any act of willful misconduct of a minor that results in injury or death to another person or injury to the

property of another. Additionally, the proposed ordinance makes a parent or guardian jointly and severally liable for fines and penalties imposed upon a minor for violation of any provision of chapters 10.48 and 12.24.

Pending State Legislation
Several bills addressing electric bicycles are currently pending in the State Legislature, including measures that would set sidewalk speed limits, impose age- and speed-based restrictions, require safety courses, and address registration of certain e-bike classes.

Staff has drafted the proposed amendments to be consistent with these anticipated standards where possible—most notably the 10 mph sidewalk speed limit—so that the City’s regulations would require minimal revision if the legislation is enacted.

Education and Outreach Efforts
In addition to the proposed ordinance, the Police Department continues to pursue an education-focused approach consistent with Council’s direction. Department efforts include an e-bike safety class for parents and children, distribution of informational materials through the City’s water-bill mailings, public-service messaging through the City’s social-media channels, and ongoing coordination with the Corona-Norco Unified School District and School Resource Officers on outreach to students and families.

FINANCIAL IMPACT:

There is no financial impact associated with approval of the recommended action.

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.

TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council Members
FROM: Housing and Homeless Solutions, City Manager’s Office 2026-231

REQUEST FOR CITY COUNCIL ACTION
SUBJECT:

MERCY HOUSE SECOND AMENDMENT TO THE FIRST AMENDED AND RESTATED

AGREEMENT
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:

The staff report asks City Council to approve the Second Amendment to the First Amended and Restated Services Agreement with Mercy House, to support the Harrison Hope Center Shelter/Navigation Center, Make It Cozy Home Furnishing Program, Respite Care Program, HOME Tenant-Based Rental Assistance Program, and the Permanent Supportive Housing Program.

RECOMMENDED ACTION:

That the City Council:
a. Approve the Second Amendment to the First Amended and Restated Professional Services Agreement with Mercy House for Corona’s Homeless System of Services, effective July 1, 2026 to June 30, 2027, in the total maximum compensation amount of $4,209,038.
b. Authorize the City Manager, or his designee, to execute the Second Amendment to the First Amended and Restated Professional Services Agreement with Mercy House.

c. Authorize the City Manager, or his designee, to approve non-substantive amendments to the Second Amendment to the First Amended and Restated Professional Services Agreement with Mercy House, including periodic updates to the HOME TBRA Guidelines and the Shelter Operations Plan, which are part of the original agreement and more operational and procedural in nature, as well as term extensions and budget line-item adjustments, so long as any such amendments will not cause the City to exceed the approved total maximum compensation of $4,209,038.

BACKGROUND & HISTORY:

On December 7, 2022, the City Council approved the Mercy House Homeless System of Services Agreement (Mercy House Agreement) totaling $3,988,491 for a 7-month period through June 30, 2023.

On June 21, 2023, the City Council adopted the City of Corona Budget for Fiscal Year (FY) 2024, which included $4,699,255 in funding to support the Mercy House Agreement for a 12-month period beginning July 1, 2023. The City Council approved a First Amendment to the Mercy House Agreement and extended the term to June 30, 2024, eliminated the $218,202 contingency, and reduced the not-to-exceed obligation of the Mercy House Agreement to $3,770,283.

On April 3, 2024, the City Council approved a Second Amendment to the Mercy House Agreement, which added $4,699,255 of FY 2024 funding, bringing the not-to-exceed obligation to $8,469,544. The Mercy House Agreement term did not change.

On August 21, 2024, the City Council approved a Third Amendment to the Mercy House Agreement to extend the term to December 31, 2024. The not-to-exceed obligation of the Mercy House Agreement did not change.

On November 20, 2024, the City Council approved the First Amended and Restated Mercy House Agreement retroactive from July 1, 2024, to June 30, 2025, for a not-toexceed obligation of $8,279,868 for FY 2025. City Council’s approval of this agreement facilitated the incorporation of multiple federal and state grants. Accordingly, the agreement was retroactive back to July 1, 2024, to meet grant deadlines, maximize use of grant funds, and leverage the limited City of Corona Measure X funding.

On August 6, 2025, the City Council approved the First Amendment to the First Amended and Restated Mercy House Agreement for the term of July 1, 2025, to June 30, 2026, in the amount of $5,547,735.

ANALYSIS:

On May 6, 2026, the City Council approved the FY 2026-27 Annual Action Plan for the Community Development Block Grant and HOME Investment Partnership Programs. As

part of this approval, $660,317 was allocated to Mercy House to support the HOME Tenant-Based Rental Assistance Program (TBRA), which supports Homeless Strategic Plan goals to permanently house the homeless and prevent homelessness for at-risk households.

Due to the high cost of housing, residents regularly call the City to request rental assistance. Unfortunately, the Mercy House TBRA Program has been at capacity for the past few months. The $660,317 allocation to the HOME TBRA program continues to support permanent housing placements for shelter graduates, and homeless prevention rental assistance to prevent additional residents from falling into homelessness.

Additionally, the proposed FY 2027 agreement with Mercy House includes estimated rent subsidy revenue from project-based vouchers, as allocated by the Riverside County Housing Authority. Although the rent subsidies are paid by the County to Mercy House, they are included in the agreement budget given the 5th Street Housing units are connected to the City’s services contract with Mercy House. The estimated project-based voucher revenue will not only reduce City costs, but also increase contract resources for permanent housing placements.

The City’s system of services approach integrates multiple strategies using Federal, State, County, and City funds. As a result, allocated City funds have been maximized to prevent homelessness and address homelessness for many Corona residents. Exhibit 3 of this staff report provides a high-level overview of the number of people served, and related outcomes of success since the Mercy House Agreement was approved by City Council in December of 2022.

HOMELESS STRATEGIC PLAN:

The recommended actions support multiple goals and strategies in the City’s Homeless Strategic Plan, including:

Goal 1: Develop a Systems-Oriented Approach to
Address Homelessness
Goal 2: Develop a Low-Barrier Emergency
Shelter/Navigation Center
Goal 3: Develop Permanent Supportive and
Affordable Housing Solutions
Goal 8: Develop a Homeless Prevention Initiative
Goal 10: Expand Data Tracking Systems to
Measure System Performance
FINANCIAL IMPACT:

Funding for the Second Amendment to the First Amended and Restated Mercy House Agreement was included in the Adopted FY 2027 Budget approved by the City Council on June 3, 2026. California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD)

has not yet released the formula Notice of Funding Availability; therefore, the amount of Permanent Local Housing Allocation (PLHA) funds budgeted for this agreement in FY 2027 is an estimate. Staff will return to the City Council with a supplemental budget appropriation request if necessary. In addition, the State now requires 20% of all formula PLHA funds to be used for homeownership programs. To prepare for potential budget shortfalls impacting the operation of the Harrison Hope Center, staff will be requesting the carryover of $300,000 in FY 2026 Measure X funds in the Quarter 4 Budget Update on August 5, 2026. Finally, the Project-Based Voucher Revenue referenced in the contract budget is paid directly by the County to Mercy House but is included in the system-ofservices contract budget to display reductions in City costs and increases in permanent housing placements.

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 involves the approval of a Second Amendment to the First Amended and Restated Mercy House Homeless System of Services Agreement. Approval of this agreement and provision of the related homeless services will not have a significant effect on the environment. Therefore, no environmental analysis is required.

 Provide 12 months of case management, post housing placement, for all rental subsidy clients assisted through the Tenant Based Rental Assistance Program who remain enrolled in the program for that duration.

PERMANENT SUPPORTIVE HOUSING PROGRAM – 5th STREET HOUSING UNITS Project Based Voucher Application Requirements:
 Consultant and City collaborated to submit an application to the County of Riverside Housing Authority for Project-Based Vouchers (PBVs).  Consultant acted as the lead fiscal agent for the PBV application since the 5th Street Housing Units are leased and operated by Consultant.
 The application requested the County to authorize an assignment of Housing Assistance Payments (HAP) Agreement with language that states the HAP would automatically transfer to the City as owner should the City no longer work with Consultant.
 The City reserves the right to review and approve the final HAP and Assignment of Agreement with the County before Consultant executes the contract.  Consultant will work with the City and the County of Riverside Housing Authority to finalize the HAP for the PBVs to support operational cash flow and provide affordable rents to extremely low-income tenants who will live at the 5th Street Permanent Supportive Housing (PSH) units.
 Consultant will operate a PSH Program at the 12 housing units located at 926- 932 West 5th Street, Corona CA (“5th Street Housing Units”) and manage, operate and lease the 5th Street Housing Units to PBV qualified homeless individuals and families.
 Consultant will use one unit for an onsite property manager and 11 units for eligible chronically homeless clients and/or other eligible homeless populations as may be approved in negotiations between the City and the County for the HAP Agreement for PBVs.
 The County of Riverside PBV HAP Agreement will provide rental assistance subsidies to eligible tenants approved by the County’s Housing Authority. The term of the HAP PBV agreement between the County and Consultant will be 20 years with an option to renew for another 20-year term.
 The HAP PBVs will be assigned to the 5th Street units to ensure that eligible tenants pay no more than 30% of their income towards rent. The value of the 20-year HAP agreement is estimated to be $5,140,560 over the initial 20-year term.  The County calculates the estimate based on payment standard restrictions (rent limits) and income restrictions (extremely low-income tenants earning 30% and below the area median). Consultant will comply with the payment standards and income limits for each tenant household approved by the County.

 Consultant estimates FY 2027 operational costs for the PSH units at approximately $186,084.06 without PBVs for tenants. If the County approves and subsequently executes the HAP in the early part of FY 2027, Consultant estimates the annual PBV subsidy, less vacancy loss, at $251,413.20. The estimated PBV revenue is estimated to fully offset the City’s PSH operational costs and reduce system costs by approximately $65,329.14. Due to the high demand for housing placements in the City’s homeless system, once the PBVs are in place, Consultant may redirect the costs savings to the Whatever It Takes housing placement budget line item to support more housing placements from the Harrison Hope Center to other permanent housing unit opportunities with landlords in the region.  Consultant will prioritize placement of homeless individuals and families with documentable ties to the City of Corona.
 Consultant will collaborate with City Net and the City’s Housing and Homeless Solutions staff to coordinate housing placements and logistics associated with getting Corona homeless clients document ready in accordance with County PBV requirements.
 Once HAP PBV Agreement is approved by the City and County, Consultant will coordinate with City Net, City Housing and Homeless Solutions, County HomeConnect Coordinated Entry System staff, and the County Housing Authority staff to process Corona referrals and establish a Corona client waiting list, as required by HUD for PBVs.
 Consultant will collaborate with City Net to assist clients through the County’s PBV income eligibility and application completion process.

Supportive Services
Consultant shall:
 In addition to providing supportive services through Consultant Case Management Staff, collaborate with Centro Medico Community Clinic, County of Riverside RUHS-Behavioral Health, or other community partners to provide supportive services to residents to maintain housing retention and stability.  If needed, coordinate transportation services for clients who need to access supportive services offsite.

Permanent Supportive Housing Target Goals
Contingent upon County approval and execution of HAP, Consultant shall complete by June 30, 2027:
 Collaborate with the City to initiate lease-up planning meetings and HQS Inspections with theCounty.
 Collaborate with the City of Corona Housing and Homeless Solutions Team and City Net to establish a list of eligible Corona tenants for “reverse referral” to the County’s HomeConnect Coordinated Entry System.

a referral coming directly from City Net on behalf of aCorona homeless household directly to the 5th Street Permanent Supportive Housing Project.  Collaborate with City Net to ensure that client referrals are document ready with disability verifications and homeless certification letters.  Collaborate with City Net to assist client referrals with completion of PBV applications.
 Collaborate with the City to host a Celebration of Resident Success Ceremony once HAP agreement lease up has been completed.
 Collaborate with Centro Medico Community Clinic to ensure that 5th Street residents have transportation and access to the Harrison Hope Center clinic to receive necessary supportive services, including medical, behavioral health, or oral care services.

STORIES OF IMPACT
Housing Stability During Terminal Illness Age 68
A Corona resident undergoing chemotherapy for terminal cancer was facing eviction while caring for his teenage daughter on a fixed SSI income — with nowhere else to turn.

The Whatever It Takes program stepped in with eviction prevention assistance, allowing him to keep his home throughout treatment. His daughter, 16, has remained in the Corona school she knows, surrounded by the community she belongs to.

The Whatever It Takes program delivered housing stability for a family navigating a health crisis — because no family should lose their home in the middle of one.

From Eviction Record to Stably Housed Age 60
A Corona resident was evicted due to a few months' worth of unpaid rent and late fees. The eviction record alone disqualified him from every apartment he applied to — trapping him in a cycle with no clear way out. The Whatever It Takes program paid off the debt in full. Within weeks, he qualified for an apartment. He is now stably housed.

One targeted investment removed a barrier he could not have overcome on his own. Without it, he would likely still be homeless today.

BACKGROUND & HISTORY:

On November 2, 2022, the City Council approved a Professional Services Agreement with RSG Inc. (RSG) in the amount of $98,016 to study the legal findings required to enact a mobilehome rent stabilization ordinance. At that time, the City Council determined that there was no competitive market for this service under the Corona Municipal Code (CMC) Section 3.08.140(B) and determined that competitive bidding for this service had been satisfied.

Accordingly, RSG assisted staff in obtaining, documenting, and analyzing market data; conducting public outreach meetings with mobilehome park owners and residents; and providing other support services. RSG’s analysis found that a legitimate government interest exists to enact a mobilehome rent stabilization ordinance.

On October 12, 2023, staff presented the results of the RSG analysis at the City Council Fall Policy Workshop. At that time, the City Council directed staff to proceed with creating a Rent Stabilization Ordinance (RSO) and program, and to accept RSG’s alternative bid for planning, developing, and implementing a rent stabilization program.

On February 21, 2024, the City Council approved a Professional Services Agreement with RSG in the amount of $269,265 to create and enact a mobilehome rent stabilization ordinance and program. In the 2nd Quarter Budget Report on February 4, 2026, the City Council approved a $13,500 amendment, increasing the RSG agreement total to $282,765, providing enough funds for RSO implementation through June 30, 2026.

In August 2024, RSG completed a Phase II Study, which detailed various options for structuring a mobilehome rent stabilization program and best practices for the City Council’s consideration. In September 2024, RSG presented findings from the Phase II Study, and the City Council directed staff to move forward with a mobilehome RSO and explore an in-lieu agreement with park owners. In November 2024, the City Council created an Ad Hoc Committee to further analyze the in-lieu agreement concept and gather community input.

In March and April 2025, the Ad Hoc Committee worked with RSG and staff to convene two park-owner workshops and two homeowner workshops to gather feedback on the inlieu agreement concept. In June 2025, the City Council directed staff to exclude an in-lieu agreement option for the RSO and for the Ad Hoc Committee to finalize its recommendations on key RSO provisions. In July 2025, the Ad Hoc Committee worked with RSG and staff to convene one park owner workshop and one homeowner workshop to collect feedback on key RSO provisions. From August through November 2025, RSG worked with staff to finalize the RSO provisions recommended by the Ad Hoc Committee.

This team collaboration also included working with Willdan Financial Services to conduct an RSO fee study report.

On November 19, 2025, the City Council approved the first reading of Ordinance No. 3422 adding Chapter 5.47 to Title 8 of the Corona Municipal Code establishing Mobilehome Park Rent Stabilization provisions, adopted Resolution No. 2025-110 to establish fees for administration of the Ordinance, and adopted Resolution No. 2025-111 to declare the City Council’s intent not to adopt rent stabilization provisions for anything other than mobilehome parks. On December 3, 2025, the City Council approved the second reading of Ordinance No. 3422, adding Chapter 5.47 to Title 8 of the Corona Municipal Code, establishing Mobilehome Park Rent Stabilization provisions with an effective date of January 2, 2026. On February 4, 2026, and February 18, 2026, the City Council approved the first and second reading of Ordinance No. 3426, making minor clarifying amendments to the Mobilehome Park Rent Stabilization provisions of the Corona Municipal Code (CMC) Chapter 5.47.

ANALYSIS:

The RSO took effect on January 2, 2026. RSG support to City staff has been critical to ensuring a timely program launch and compliance with the RSO elements. The following is an overview of RSG and staff efforts for RSO launch and implementation through June 2026:
 Processed Initial Park Owner Submittals from all 10 mobilehome parks in January and February. These documents included information on each park, each park owner, services included in base rent, and rent rolls with park maps.  Received and processed Notice of Maximum Rent upon Vacancy for the February 2026 to January 2027 period for all 10 parks. All 10 notices are posted on the RSO webpage.

 Notified parks in mid-February of the FY 26-27 maximum allowable CPI Rent Increase of 3.00%; notice is posted on the RSO webpage.  Notified all 10 parks in February and March of the FY 26-27 maximum allowable CPI Rent Increase by space in each park; all 10 notices are posted on the RSO webpage. Processed 4 park owner requests to increase rents within those allowable limits.
 Conducted a homeowner workshop on 3/9/26 to provide an overview of the program and answer questions.
 Collaborated with IT to create an online portal for payment of RSO administrative fees and petition fees, and in April, notified all 10 parks of their RSO administrative fee amount due by 7/1/26. To date, the Finance Department has received payments from six parks.
 Added capital improvement and homeowner petition forms to the RSO webpage so the City could start accepting those as of 5/1/26.
 In response to homeowner/resident feedback, updated the RSO webpage to include a map of all parks subject to the RSO and a summary of maximum rents upon vacancy by park.
 Processed 29 requests for certification of Vacancy Rent Increases; all notices of certification are posted on the RSO webpage.

The RSG consultant/City staff model has supported the successful development and launch of the RSO. To support ongoing management and implementation of the RSO, staff requests approval of the recommended actions.

Basis for Determination of Competitive Bidding
When initially soliciting these services in 2022, staff found it difficult to identify firms specializing in rent stabilization for mobile home parks. Several firms in the region, such as RSG Inc., have experience in housing and economic development services. However, apart from RSG Inc., none of those firms provides this specialized rent stabilization service. Therefore, due to its specific expertise, as stated above, the Council previously determined that competitive bidding has been satisfied under CMC 3.08.140(B) No Competitive Market for this service. Given that the proposed agreement is an extension of the prior services, for which the Council previously determined there is no competitive market, staff recommend that the Council continue to find that competitive bidding has been satisfied pursuant to CMC 3.08.140(B), No Competitive Market.

COMMITTEE ACTION:

The proposed actions are consistent with the City Council Ad Hoc Committee recommendations that framed the development and approval of the City’s Mobilehome Park Rent Stabilization Rent Ordinance.

FINANCIAL IMPACT:

Approval of the recommended actions will result in an appropriation in the amount of $67,850 to the City Manager’s Office Housing & Property Management Division operating budget within the General Fund (FD_1110). To support the RSG Professional Services agreement, $103,505 was included in the adopted Fiscal Year 2026-27 Budget, which was approved by the City Council on June 3, 2026; therefore, the remaining $67,850 is requested to fully fund the RSG agreement of $171,355. Estimated RSO fees should be sufficient to cover the costs of the RSG agreement.

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 involves the approval of a Professional Services Agreement with RSG, Inc. for implementation and management of the Mobilehome Park Rent Stabilization Ordinance Project. Approval of this agreement and provision of the related services will not have a significant effect on the environment. Therefore, no environmental analysis is required.
