TITLE: CALIFORNIA ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY ACT VEHICLE MILES TRAVELED SIGNIFICANCE THRESHOLDS UPDATE.

STRATEGIC
GOAL: Safe, Sustainable & Healthy Community
RECOMMENDATION:

Adopt Resolution No. 2024-12 adopting the updates to the CEQA VMT significance thresholds.

FINANCIAL IMPACT:

No financial impact.

SUMMARY:

California Senate Bill 743 (SB 743, 2013) fundamentally altered the way transportation impacts are measured under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). Prior to SB 743, such impacts were measured by the increase in traffic congestion generated by new development projects: the metric used was called “Level of Service,” or LOS. SB 743 established “Vehicle Miles Traveled” (VMT) as the new transportation impact metric, with the aim of encouraging development projects that “are built in a way that allows Californians more options to drive less.”1In essence, SB 743 established that a transportation impact occurs if a project leads to an increase in overall VMT, while any increase in traffic congestion (i.e., a reduction in LOS) is no longer defined as an environmental impact. VMT analyses in CEQA documents were required statewide as of July 1, 2020.

The City, with guidance provided by the San Gabriel Valley Council of Governments (SGVCOG), drafted VMT thresholds for use in Diamond Bar CEQA documents, which were adopted by the City Council in 2020. The current SGVCOG VMT Tool is based on VMT outputs from the Southern California Association of Governments (SCAG) 2016 1 Governor’s Office of Planning and Research: https://opr.ca.gov/ceqa/sb-743/

5.4 Packet Pg. 41
Regional Transportation Plan/Sustainable Communities Strategy (RTP/SCS) trip-based model (TBM) and needs to be updated to be consistent with the 2020 RTP/SCS activitybased model (ABM). The change of both the model simulation platform (trip-based model to activity-based model) and the underlying data, such as traffic counts and socioeconomic data, resulted in changes to the VMT threshold numbers and low VMT areas.

This report describes the changes in VMT, more specifically, the change in the number of low VMT areas that meet the low VMT screening criterion, discusses the SGVCOG recommendations, and includes a draft Resolution to adopt CEQA transportation thresholds that comply with State guidance and align with the City’s policies, goals, and objectives.

BACKGROUND:

In March 2020, the City entered into a Memorandum of Agreement with the SGVCOG to participate in the San Gabriel Valley VMT Analysis Model. The City of Diamond Bar is one of 26 SGVCOG member cities that opted into the SGVCOG SB 743 Implementation process.

On July 21, 2020, the City Council adopted Resolution 2020-30, approving VMT significance thresholds for three different VMT metrics pursuant to guidance provided by the State’s Office of Planning and Research (OPR). Following adoption of VMT thresholds, the SGVCOG VMT Evaluation Tool was developed for the participating cities to use for assessing the potential VMT impacts of proposed projects.

The current SGVCOG VMT Evaluation Tool is based on VMT outputs from the 2016 RTP/SCS trip-based model and needs to be updated to be consistent with the 2020 RTP/SCS activity-based model (ABM). As with every RTP update, the regional travel demand model is updated to reflect the latest population, employment, and traffic count information (socioeconomic data).

The SGVCOG participating cities were aware that the model would be changing from TBM to ABM and had anticipated that the change may prompt them to change the adopted baseline for their VMT significance thresholds. However, the cities did not anticipate that the updated data would result in more significant changes to low VMT areas than the conversion to an activity-based model (refer to Attachment 2, Memorandum to SGVCOG Dated November 27, 2023). The recommendation herein recognizes the following: 1) every four years the SCAG RTP/SCS will be updated, prompting an update to the regional travel demand model; 2) the City’s low VMT areas are based on the SCAG model; 3) low VMT areas under each of the three geographic baselines are likely to change when the SCAG model is updated; and 4) the City intends to use the baselines that maximize the number of “low VMT” screening areas and to set the most achievable bar for reaching a given threshold.

ANALYSIS:

Baseline Data Differences (2016 vs. 2020 RTP/SCS)

5.4 Packet Pg. 42
The SCAG 2016 RTP/SCS is based on traffic counts collected in 2012, the 2012 roadway network, 2012 transit network and ridership information, land use information, and other socio-economic inputs. The 2020 RTP/SCS is based on the same datapoints collected in 2016. This is the first update to the RTP since the SGVCOG participating cities adopted VMT thresholds of significance. The changes in the underlying data significantly altered the low, moderate, and high VMT-generating areas throughout the SGVCOG region for each of the three baseline alternatives (City, Southeast Subarea, and SGVCOG Region). In some cities under their adopted baseline, an area considered a low VMT area using the 2016 RTP model became a high VMT area using the 2020 RTP model. And under different baselines, the reverse occurred. This is important because the selection of baselines for determining VMT significance may impact a city’s ability to approve projects. For example, if a developer selected a location for a housing project based on the city’s low VMT areas for residential uses and compatibility with the city’s general plan, but the SCAG model was updated and the area became a high VMT area for housing before they submitted their application, then the project would likely require the City to certify an environmental impact report (EIR) and adopt a statement of overriding considerations to move forward. Not only would this scenario significantly delay project approval, but it would delay construction of housing in an area designated for housing and result in higher priced housing units.

The City of Diamond Bar is located in the Southeast Subarea of the SGVCOG region.

According to the City of Diamond Bar Transportation Study Guidelines for Vehicle Miles Traveled and Level of Service Assessment (September 2020), the City adopted the City baseline VMT as the benchmark to determine CEQA transportation impacts for all project types (residential, employment, and mixed-use/regional retail).

Pursuant to the OPR Guidance, cities can adopt different baselines based on project types, and states that employment based VMT thresholds should use subregional or regional baselines. For employment generated VMT (VMT/employee), it is recommended that the City adopt the highest of two baselines (Southeast Subarea or SGVCOG) to set the most achievable bar for employment generating uses. The City’s current threshold is appropriate for Total VMT per service population (OD VMT/SP) and for home-based VMT (VMT/capita), but it is recommended that the City adopt the highest of the three baselines (City, Southeast Subarea, or SGVCOG Region) to set the most achievable bar for reaching the given threshold. Adopting this change will allow the City to approve projects that both align with the City’s General Plan and meet CEQA requirements in a timely manner.

Environmental Review:

The CEQA VMT Thresholds Update has been assessed in accordance with the authority and criteria contained in the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and the State CEQA Guidelines. The adoption of local CEQA thresholds of significance for transportation impacts and the adoption of Local Transportation Assessment Guidelines will not have a significant environmental impact and are exempt from the CEQA pursuant to Section 15308 of Title 14 of the California Code of Regulations because the two actions are undertaken by the City for the protection of the environment. The revised CEQA thresholds will be compliant with a State mandate (SB 743) and will be used in a regulatory process (CEQA process) that involves procedures for the

5.4 Packet Pg. 43
protection of the environment. Accordingly, the City Council will consider the recommendation to find the Resolution exempt from the environmental review requirements of CEQA pursuant to Section 15308 of Title 14 of the California Code of Regulations.

Planning Commission Recommendation
On March 12, 2024, the Planning Commission reviewed the updates to the CEQA VMT Significance Thresholds and by a 4-0 vote, the Commission recommended that the City Council adopt the updates. The Planning Commission Resolution is included in Attachment 3.

VMT Baselines and Thresholds of Significance
Consistent with State CEQA guidelines section 15064.3, the City of Diamond Bar has adopted the project baselines and thresholds of significance set forth in Table 1 to guide in determining when a project will have a significant transportation impact.

Table 1
Project Type Thresholds
Land Use Plan 1) Project Impact: A significant impact would occur if the VMT rate for the plan would exceed the applicable baseline VMT rate.
2) Cumulative Project Effect: A significant impact would occur if the project increases total regional VMT compared to cumulative no project conditions.

Land Use Project 1) Project Impact: A significant impact would occur if the VMT rate for the project would exceed the applicable baseline VMT rate.
2) Cumulative Project Effect:

A significant impact would occur if the project increases total regional VMT compared to cumulative no project
conditions.

Retail Project (over 50,000
square feet)
1) Project Impact: A significant impact would occur if the VMT rate for the project would exceed the applicable baseline VMT.
2) Cumulative Project Effect: A significant impact would occur if the project increases total VMT in the study area
compared to baseline conditions.

Transportation Project A significant impact would occur if the project causes a net increase in total regional VMT compared to baseline conditions, opening year no project conditions, or cumulative no project conditions.

All land use and
transportation projects
A significant impact would occur if the project is inconsistent with the RTP/SCS.

VMT thresholds for each VMT type shall be based on the currently available SCAG RTP/SCS model.

The thresholds for each VMT type are 15 percent below the baseline VMT that sets the most achievable VMT target. The VMT per employee threshold for employment-generating projects shall be based on 15 percent below either the SGVCOG Southeast Subarea or SGVCOG Region, whichever results in the largest numerical value. The VMT per capita thresholds for residential projects may be based on the City, SGVCOG Southeast Subarea, or SGVCOG Region, whichever results in the largest numerical value. The VMT per service population thresholds for mixed-use projects may be based on the City, SGVCOG Southeast Subarea, or SGVCOG Region, whichever results in the largest numerical value.

From: Katy Cole, Jolene Hayes, and Biling Liu
Subject: City of Diamond Bar
Analysis of the City’s VMT Thresholds (Deliverable 2.3) OC20- 0715.02
This technical memorandum summarizes the vehicle miles traveled (VMT) differences between the SCAG 2016 and 2020 Regional Transportation Plan/Sustainable Communities (RTP/SCS) models and how these differences may affect the thresholds for vehicle miles of travel (VMT) impact analyses in the City of Diamond Bar (the City). The current SGVCOG VMT Tool is based on VMT outputs from the 2016 Regional Transportation Plan/Sustainable Communities Strategy (RTP/SCS) trip-based model (TBM) and needs to be updated to be consistent with the 2020 RTP/SCS activity-based model (ABM). The change of both the model simulation platform (trip-based model to activity-based model) and the underlying data, such as traffic counts and socioeconomic data, results in changes to the VMT threshold numbers and low VMT areas. The following memorandum describes the changes in VMT, and more specifically, the change in the number of low VMT areas that meet the low VMT screening criterion.

VMT Calculations
For the purpose of updating the SGVCOG VMT Evaluation Tool, we first considered how the change in model platforms (trip-based to activity-based) would change the low VMT areas in the City. In addition to the model platform, the change in the underlying inputs to the model (e.g., population, employment, traffic counts, etc.) also resulted in changes to the low VMT areas as illustrated by the differences between the 2016 and 2020 Total VMT per total population and employment (OD VMT/SP). This calculation is the same for both model versions, therefore, the change in low VMT areas shown in Table 1 for OD VMT/SP reflects the effect of the new data inputs only, whereas the changes to home-based VMT per capita and work-based VMT per

5.4.b
Packet Pg. 50

November 27, 2023

employee are combinations of data updates and the change in model methodologies (trips versus tours).

Model Methodology Comparisons
The SCAG 2016 RTP/SCS trip-based model (TBM) VMT methodology includes all trips within the SCAG model for each of the following variable formats:

1. Origin-Destination (OD) VMT per Service Population (all vehicles and all trip purposes): The total VMT to and from all traffic analysis zones (TAZ) in the geographic area are divided by the total service population to calculate the efficiency metric of VMT per service population. Service population is defined as all residents and employees of the zones being evaluated. The image shows a visual representation of OD VMT per Service Population for a single project. To calculate it for a set geography, an analyst determines the total VMT produced to or from the geography divided by the total population plus employment of that same geography.

2. Home-based VMT per capita (automobile only): All home-based trips are traced back to the residence of the trip-maker. Trips without an origin or destination from home are excluded. For example, if you leave home and stop for coffee, then for gas, and then at the store before returning home, the trip from coffee to the gas station and from the gas station to the store would be deemed an “other to other” trip and omitted from HB VMT. The image shows a visual
representation of Home-Based VMT per capita for a single home.

3. Home-based work VMT per employee: Captures only the segment of the trip to work that directly connects home to work. All stops along the way to or from work are defined as work to/from other and are not part of the HBW VMT calculation. The image shows a visual representation of Home-Based work VMT per employee for a single home.

SGVCOG VMT Tool Update
November 27, 2023

The SCAG 2020/RTP/SCS model, an activity-based model (ABM), is quite different than the TBM because it considers the entire linked trip, or tour, that a person makes when leaving home or commuting to work. Whereas the calculation for total VMT per service population is the same under both models, the home-based and home-based work calculations are different.

1. OD VMT per Service Population (all vehicles and all trip purposes): The total VMT to and from all zones in the geographic area are divided by the total service population to calculate the efficiency metric of VMT per service population. This metric is the same as described above for the TBM.

2. VMT per capita (automobile only): Considers VMT for all tours embarked upon by residents, encompassing both Single Occupancy Vehicle (SOV) and High-Occupancy Vehicle (HOV) drivers (drivers only). The VMT is divided by the population within the geographic area. This method includes all trips made by the population of the geographic area, including those that do not directly start or end at home. For example, if you leave home and stop for coffee, then for gas, and then at the store before returning home, all of these legs of the trip together would be a “tour” and they are all included in the calculation. The image shows a visual representation of tour-based VMT per capita for a single home.

3. VMT per employee: Encompasses VMT for all work-related tours, encompassing both work and work-related business. The VMT is divided by the employees within the geographic area. For example, if a person commutes to work, then has a lunch meeting and runs a work errand mid-day, and then commutes home from work stopping at the gym on the way, all of these legs are summed together as work-related tours and are included in the calculation.

Baseline Data Differences (2016 vs. 2020 SCAG RTP/SCS)
The SCAG 2016 RTP/SCS was calibrated and validated based on traffic counts collected in 2012, the 2012 roadway network, 2012 transit network and ridership information, land use information, and other socio-economic inputs. The 2020 RTP/SCS was calibrated and validated based on the datapoints collected in 2016. The changes in the underlying data affected the low VMT areas within the SGVCOG region. To conduct comparative VMT results, the VMT from the SCAG 2016 RTP/SCS and 2020 RTP/SCS were both interpolated to 2023 baseline in the next VMT Comparison section.

VMT Comparison
Diamond Bar is located in the Southeast Subarea of the SGVCOG region. According to the City of Diamond Bar Transportation Study Guidelines for Vehicle Miles Traveled and Level of Service Assessment (August 2020), the City adopted the City of Diamond Bar (City) baseline VMT as the benchmark to determine CEQA transportation impacts for all project types (residential, employment, and mixed-use/regional retail). A comparison of the number of low VMT areas under the 2016 versus the 2020 RTP using the City’s adopted threshold (15% below the City’s baseline) is shown in Table 1.

Table 1: Comparison of Low VMT Areas Using Diamond Bar’s Adopted VMT Baseline (2016 vs. 2020 RTP/SCS) Pursuant to the OPR Guidance, cities can adopt different baselines based on project types and states that employmentbased VMT thresholds should use subregional or regional baselines. The City’s current threshold (City) is appropriate for Total and home-based VMT types, but the City should consider using the Southeast as the baseline for employment-based VMT (VMT/Employee) consistent with OPR’s guidance. The threshold for Total VMT, since it is a mix of both residential and employment, can use any baseline.

Table 2 shows the comparison of the thresholds for the different baseline options (SGVCOG, Southeast Subarea, and City) using the 2020 RTP model. The higher thresholds result in the ability to screen out more projects, whereby more transportation analysis zones (TAZs) generate less miles of travel per person than the baseline. For example, for Total VMT per service population (OD VMT/SP), a project that generates 31.7 miles of travel per person would exceed the thresholds for the SGVCOG and the Southeast Subarea of 28.93 and 31.67 miles per person, respectively but would fall below the City threshold (31.85 miles). The numbers in bold in Table 2 are the basis for the comparisons in Table 3 and serve as the thresholds that would achieve the lowest VMT thresholds and that are consistent with OPR’s guidelines. As previously stated, the OPR Guidelines recommend a subregional 2023

or regional VMT threshold for analyzing employment-generating projects. The City currently uses the City of Diamond Bar’s employment VMT rate as the threshold. Changing the threshold from City to Southeast Subarea would result in the conversion of three low and four moderate VMT zones to seven high VMT zones.

Table 2: Baseline VMT Rates
In Table 3 below, based on the 2020 RTP, the Adopted Threshold (City) is compared to an alternative threshold. The City threshold continues to maximize low VMT areas for all project types, however, the OPR Guidance recommends a regional baseline for employment based VMT. The table below reflects the Southeast rather than the City threshold for employment generating projects, which results in seven more red areas, three fewer blue areas, and four fewer yellow areas as reflected in Table 3 and in the maps.

The 2023 baseline VMT maps reflecting the City’s adopted VMT baseline under both the 2016 and 2020 RPT, as well as the alternative thresholds for consideration are shown in Attachments A-C.

Conclusion
This analysis compares the VMT metric options for CEQA VMT analysis purposes between the 2016 RTP/SCS and 2020 RTP/SCS SCAG regional travel demand model. The following provides takeaways based on this analysis:
• The SCAG regional model changed formats from a “trip-based” model to a “tour-based” activity-based model. This change, along with changes in traffic volumes, transportation behavior and socioeconomic conditions between the 2016 and 2020 RTP/SCS planning documents, resulted in changes to the way average VMT metrics are calculated and the actual VMT results throughout the region.
• A thorough comparison of VMT metrics and changes in the VMT was conducted to understand the implications for CEQA VMT analysis.
• Retaining the City’s current thresholds of significance maximizes the number of “low VMT” screening areas; however, it is recommended that the City consider the use of Southeast for screening employment-based VMT consistent with OPR’s guidance.

Next Steps
The findings for each participating SGVCOG city will be evaluated by each city to determine if the thresholds should be changed. Changing the thresholds will require City Council approval.

Meeting Date: April 16, 2024
TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
FROM: Daniel Fox, City Manager
TITLE: CONTINUED PARTICIPATION IN THE LOS ANGELES URBAN COUNTY PERMANENT LOCAL HOUSING ALLOCATION ("PLHA")
PROGRAM.

STRATEGIC
GOAL: Responsible Stewardship of Public Resources
RECOMMENDATION:

A. Adopt Resolution No. 2024-13 approving the City's participation in Year 4 of the Los Angeles Urban County PLHA Program; identifying proposed activities for the expenditure of $145,682 in PLHA funding; and authorizing the City Manager to sign a reimbursable contract with the Los Angeles County Development Authority ("LACDA"); and
B. Determine that the proposed action does not constitute a project and is therefore exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”).

FISCAL IMPACT:

The PLHA Program is a SB 2 funded program that provides an ongoing annual source of funding through State Property Transfer Fees. The City has been allocated $145,682 in funding for Year 4 (January 1, 2026 through December 31, 2026) PLHA Program based on the State’s allocation formula. No additional funding is required to participate in the program. If the City does NOT request the funds and identify a purpose for them, the funds will be returned to the State.

BACKGROUND
The PLHA Program was approved by the State legislature in 2017. It is designed to provide an ongoing annual source of funding for the construction of affordable housing, programs to assist persons who are experiencing or are at risk of homelessness, or other housing-related assistance programs for low-to-moderate income households.

Like the City’s Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) program allocations, the

5.5 Packet Pg. 71
PLHA funding is first allocated to the Los Angeles County Development Authority (LACDA). The funding is then distributed to individual participating cities according to an allocation formula. The City was allocated a combined total of $649,080 for PLHA Program Years 1 through 3 (i.e., calendar years 2023 through 2025) On June 20, 2023, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 2023-25 approving the City’s participation in the PLHA Program to expand the Home Improvement Program by increasing the maximum loan amount from $20,000 to $30,000, and extending the program to income-eligible condominium owners, and authorizing the City Manager to enter into a reimbursable contract with LACDA.

On April 1, 2024, LACDA issued a bulletin (Attachment 2) listing the Year 4 PLHA funding allocations for each participating city. Diamond Bar is listed as eligible to receive $145,682 in Year 4 PLHA funding. To begin receiving these funds, the City is required to adopt and submit a City Council resolution to LACDA by May 31, 2024, listing the program activities that will be funded.

Pursuant to the rules set forth by LACDA, Year 4 funds must be fully expended by December 31, 2026.

DISCUSSION
The SB 2 legislation relating to PLHA funds specifies what eligible activities these funds can be used to finance. Activities can be broadly categorized as follows:

1. Activities related to the construction or preservation of affordable housing or supportive housing;

2. Matching funds to regional housing trusts;

3. Homelessness services and prevention programs;

4. Accessibility modifications for lower-income, owner-occupied housing;

5. Acquisition and rehabilitation of foreclosed or vacant homes; and

6. Programs that expand homeownership opportunities including but not limited to down-payment assistance programs.

Of the eligible activities listed above, it is recommended that the City allocate its Year 4 PLHA allocation to continue funding the Home Improvement Program and Condominium Home Improvement Program. The proposed programming of these funds is summarized below:
• Home Improvement Program (HIP) – $56,545
The HIP offers deferred loans to eligible low- and moderate-income homeowners of single-family detached housing for necessary home improvements, as well as repairs to mitigate building and safety code deficiencies and/or violations. The City’s

5.5 Packet Pg. 72
HIP policies currently provide interest-free, deferred loans of up to $30,000 to eligible households. Loans become payable when the homes are sold or refinanced.

The minimum and maximum loan amounts under this program are $5,000 and $30,000, respectively. The City proposes to allocate a portion of its PLHA award to fund at least two HIP loans. CDBG funds are available to accommodate additional participation in the program.
• Condominium Home Improvement Program (CHIP) – $60,000 The CHIP offers deferred loans to eligible low- and moderate-income homeowners of residential condominiums and townhomes. The program is administered essentially the same manner as the HIP, but the loan amount is capped at $20,000 because costlier improvements, such as roof maintenance and exterior repairs, are the responsibility of the respective condominium homeowners associations. The proposed allocation of $60,000 would fund at least three loans through the end of 2026. Unlike the HIP, CDBG funds cannot be used for CHIP loans, so excess demand would have to be accommodated in the subsequent program year.

Alternatively, the City may make adjustments to the PLHA funding allocations between the two programs, if appropriate. For example, If the demand for CHIP loans is higher than anticipated, the City could reallocate funds from the HIP allocation.
• Administration of the HIP and CHIP - $29,136
The use of PLHA funds to cover administrative costs is capped at 20%.

Therefore, $29,136 of the PLHA award is proposed to be set aside to pay consultant costs to administer these programs.

ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS:

The proposed action does not constitute a project under the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”). As such, this matter is exempt under CEQA.

LEGAL REVIEW:

The City Attorney has reviewed and approved the Resolution as to form.

TO: PARTICIPATING CITIES
The purpose of this bulletin is to provide our Participating Cities (Cities) an update on the Permanent Local Housing Allocation Program (PLHA) funding for Year 4.

The State of California Department of Housing and Community Development released the NOFA for Year 4 in December 2023 and announced that the County of Los Angeles (County) will receive an allocation of $9,451,755.00. Funding has experienced a significant change from previous years due to the real estate transactions in 2022. Cities who have a State-approved Housing Element are invited to follow the instructions below to program their PLHA Year 4 allocation to implement eligible affordable housing programs. Cities can continue to fund existing projects using funding from multiple years.

Attachment A provides the new PLHA Year 4 allocation amounts available to Cities that qualify and wish to utilize these funds for current or new eligible activities. To receive PLHA Year 4 funding, Cities with a State-approved Housing Element who wish to use their available allocation for PLHA Eligible Activities, must submit a Letter of Intent and proposed Exhibit A form to opt-in and receive funding. If applicable, the Letter of Intent must include concise details of the proposed Activity and Sub-Activity and describe how the City will spend the funds by December 31, 2026.

Please consider the complexity of the project being proposed, available resources, and whether the funding amount can be expended by the expenditure deadline. Because the shared allocation limits the amount of funding available to each jurisdiction, PLHA may not be the best funding source for all eligible activities. If you intend to make a change to an existing project that will reallocate funding by 10% or more, LACDA cannot guarantee a timely reimbursement and you may experience a delay in funding. If a city does not submit a Letter of Intent, the available allocation will be retained by the County and reallocated to Countywide program(s).

TITLE: ARBOR DAY PROCLAMATION

STRATEGIC
GOAL: Safe, Sustainable & Healthy Community
RECOMMENDATION:

Adopt a Proclamation declaring April 26, 2024 as Arbor Day.

BACKGROUND:

The Arbor Day Foundation, a nonprofit organization dedicated to promoting tree planting and environmental stewardship, issues a proclamation annually to celebrate Arbor Day. This proclamation serves as a rallying call for individuals, communities, and organizations to come together and recognize the importance of trees in sustaining life on Earth. Through this initiative, the Arbor Day Foundation seeks to inspire people to take action, whether by planting trees, participating in community greening projects, or simply appreciating the vital role that trees play in maintaining a healthy and balanced ecosystem. The proclamation serves as a reminder that each tree planted contributes to a greener, more sustainable future for generations to come.

The Tree City USA program, sponsored by the Arbor Day Foundation in partnership with the U.S. Forest Service and the National Association of State Foresters, encourages communities to manage and care for their public trees. To achieve the Tree City USA designation, a city must meet four core standards:

1. Tree Board or Department:
• Establish a city tree board or department responsible for the care and management of public trees.

2. Public Tree Care Ordinance:
• Adopt and maintain a community tree ordinance.

5.6 Packet Pg. 81

3. Community Forestry Program with a Budget:
• Allocate financial resources for a community forestry program.

4. Arbor Day Observance and Proclamation:
• Celebrate Arbor Day by holding an official observance and proclamation.

The event should involve the community and demonstrate a commitment to tree planting and care.

Cities that meet these standards annually receive the Tree City USA designation, acknowledging their dedication to effective urban forest management. The program aims to promote the numerous benefits of trees, such as improved air and water quality, reduced energy consumption, and enhanced quality of life for residents.

The City of Diamond Bar is once more pursuing re-certification as a Tree City USA. This prestigious award is bestowed upon cities that demonstrate a sincere and dynamic commitment to fostering the preservation of our natural habitat and trees. Since 2001, the City has consistently earned this recognition annually, underscoring its enduring dedication to environmental stewardship and tree care.

Attached is a proclamation naming April 26, 2024 as “Arbor Day”.

PROCLAMAT ION
“ARBOR DAY”
WHEREAS, in 1872, J. Sterling Morton proposed to the Nebraska Board of Agriculture that a special day be set aside for the planting of trees; and WHEREAS, this holiday, called Arbor Day, was first observed with the planting of more than a million trees in Nebraska; and
WHEREAS, Arbor Day is now observed throughout the nation and the world; and WHEREAS, trees can reduce the erosion of our precious topsoil by wind and water, cut heating and cooling costs, moderate the temperature, clean the air, produce oxygen and provide habitat for wildlife; and
WHEREAS, trees are a renewable resource, giving us paper, wood for our homes, fuel for our fires and countless other wood products; and WHEREAS, trees in our city increase property values, enhance the economic vitality of business areas, and beautify our community; and WHEREAS, since the year 2001, the City of Diamond Bar has annually received the distinction of being named as a Tree City USA; and
WHEREAS, the City of Diamond Bar will observe Arbor Day on April 17, 2024 with a Tree Planting Ceremony at 9am and on April 20, 2024 with an Earth Day Celebration at the South Coast Air Quality Management District 9 a.m.

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that the City Council of the City of Diamond Bar does hereby proclaim April 26, 2024 as “ARBOR DAY” in the City of Diamond Bar and urges all residents to plant trees to promote the well-being of this and future generations.

BACKGROUND:

On October 3, 2023, the City Council approved a consulting services agreement with Black O'Dowd and Associates, Inc. (Consultant) to prepare final design and construction drawings for the Heritage Park and Community Center Renovation Project Phases 1 and 2 (CIP# FP24502).

In a City Council Study Session on February 20, 2024, Council Members reviewed the design concepts for the Project. It was the consensus of the City Council to proceed with Option B for the Community Center building and Option B for the shade structures.

Community Center Option B is intended to elevate the facility beyond its current level providing a greater value to the community and includes the following features:
• Adds approximately 1,200 square feet of new floor area and reconfigures approximately 1,200 square feet of existing floor area representing an approximate 55% increase in the existing building size. • Adds a new entrance space.
• Expand the catering kitchen, along with a new separate kitchen storage area. • Adds a new second office (in addition to the existing office) that can be used for activities, one-on-one meetings with parents and other administrative purposes. • Adds new ADA-compliant indoor restrooms and janitorial closet. • Converts the existing restrooms to additional storage space. • Removes the existing outdoor detached restroom building replacing it with a new ADA-compliant attached outdoor restroom.
• Expands the existing activity room by removing the existing toddler restroom and relocating it to the new attached outdoor restroom building (with exclusive interior access).

Shade Structure Option B includes the following features:
• Architectural design inspired by the City’s windmill theme. • Adds approximately 1,000 square feet of new shaded area highlighting the entrance to the Community Building.
• Adds approximately 2,150 to 2,300 square feet of new shaded patio area on the rear and side of the existing community room.

7.1 Packet Pg. 85
Comments received at the Study Session included:
• Explore options to expand and add more indoor/outdoor access to the community room in the Community Center building.
• Consider blending Site Plan Options A and B to provide a more usable picnic area and realign the basketball court to better take advantage of existing site conditions.
• Provide additional design concepts for the playground theme and equipment for further consideration.

ANALYSIS:

Based on the comments received from the City Council at the February 20th Study Session, the following has been developed, as provided in Attachment 1.

Building Floor Plan
The project team reassessed the feasibility of expanding the community room using the Option B floor plan selected by the City Council. The assessment concluded that due to the foundation, structural, and roofing systems of the existing building, such expansion would be infeasible and cost-prohibitive without significant demolition and reconstruction of the building. Therefore, no further expansion of the community room footprint is proposed.

However, new pedestrian doors and windows have been added to the west wall of the community room to further enhance indoor/outdoor accessibility and connection between the room and the back patio, which will be covered by the new shade structure in the back (south and west) of the building.

Further improvements have also been proposed for the catering kitchen expansion and its associated storage room.

Site Plan Layout
The picnic and barbecue area has been redesigned to include a more functional picnic area that is less linear and the basketball court has been realigned to better take advantage of existing site conditions, drainage and providing for additional perimeter landscaping.

Playground Equipment
Two new design concepts have been developed for the playground.

Concept #3 offers a modernized approach to the City's equestrian ranch history by having cutouts of the historic windmill and the distinctive view of Diamond Bar's rolling hills. This design boosts the user's play experience by increasing the play opportunities and focusing on the interactive features. Playground users have two options to access the playground: a ramp from the sidewalk or access from the woodchips into the play

equipment. The playground is intended to have playground wood chips for the entire play experience. The playground features bucket swings, a rotating play feature, and an interactive touch panel. The playground also features ranch-style play structure canopies, and the overall theme's colors resemble a soothing lagoon in the countryside.

These interactive touch panels could feature ranch atmospheric sounds, such as a cattle bell. Perimeter play features also include a modern playhouse and wood-themed stepper elements.

Concept #4 plays directly into the architectural theme and the City's Arabian horse ranch history. This equestrian beginning marks the start of this City's origin, and the design follows the city's transition into the modernized city it is now. The windmill stands as the City's remaining historic monument and this design plays homage to Diamond Bar's history by incorporating a distinctive windmill play piece at the top of the 5-12 play structure. Playground users have two options to access the playground: a ramp from the sidewalk or access from the woodchips into the play equipment. The playground is intended to have playground wood chips for the entire play experience. The playground also features a climbable tractor, a rocky terrain, a horse stable, ranch-style play structure canopies, a modernized wooden net course, and play panels to enhance the user's experience. These play panels offer a fun opportunity for children of all ages, and the tractor is a unique climbing feature for simulated play. Perimeter play features include horse corral themes and wood-themed stepper elements.

Probable Costs
The (preliminary) probable cost estimate for the construction of this Project is $15M.

This estimate is expected to change as the design work progresses and again after the Project goes through the construction bidding process.

Furthermore, prior to construction, funding options need to be developed for consideration by the City Council as the Project moves forward through the final design process.

Agreement Amendment
The design work in the original agreement is focused on Phases 1 and 2 of the renovation work as defined in the original concept plans prepared and approved by the City Council in 2019. That concept did not include an addition to the Community Center building floor plan and a shade structure in front of the building, among other additions.

Due to the additional work stemming from enhancing and improving the functionality of the building (e.g., new activity room, new storage and support room, new and upgraded kitchen area, new entry area, and shade structures), the Consultant proposed additional scope of work to what was included in the original agreement. A First Amendment is proposed for the Consultant’s agreement as provided in Attachment 2.

Re: Extra Fee for Additional Architectural-Engineering Services for Bigger Building & Structure Diamond Bar Heritage Park Renovation
Now that the Schematic Design has been submitted and mostly accepted by the City Council, we wish to reconcile our Scope of Work with our Fee. We are requesting an Extra Fee for the additional Scope of Work that shown on Option B for the Community Center building. The additional scope is that the building grew bigger by an additional 1200sf, and a front entry shade structure was added. As you may recall, the original scope was that the building addition on the East side would only include a renovated kitchen, storage and new interior restrooms. Now, the building addition will include a brand new and bigger kitchen with greater functionality, kitchen storage, and restrooms, along with new park offices, janitor room, and community room storage.

The original scope included only a simple shade structure in the back of the Community Center (facing the park). We now include a large shade structure in front of the building with a tall iconic entry tower, symbolic of the City’s historic windmill. The new shade structure in the back of the building is designed to appear compatible and complimentary, with similar heavy timber framing as the front. The shade structure in the front will be ideal to serve the many kids who wait at the front of the Community Center to be picked up by their parents. And in the back, the new expansive shade structure will expand the use of the large community room from the indoor to the shaded outdoor. Additionally, it will provide shaded picnicking and encourage other large outdoor gatherings.

We want to also include 3 additional fees. One for added survey work needed by our Surveyor/Civil Engineer, DMS, Surrender Dewan. This fee is $2500 for DMS + 15% markup = $2900. The City provided land survey was not completely adequate and DMS had to do additional surveyor work to allow the landscape architect to design their site plan overlay. Secondly, the City provided past soils reports for the Heritage Park site, but were not adequate for structural engineering, and percolation needs. We will need to procure additional test boring under the building expansion and additional test pits under the future bio-swale locations. See attached geotechnical fee proposal from ASE. We had previously indicated in the original fee proposal that this additional geotechnical fee would be $10,000.

Thirdly, because the original Community Center drawings could not be found, we will need to do destructive testing (scanning, coring, digging) to verify the composition of the existing CMU walls and foundations. This will enable our structural engineer to justify new roof loading onto the existing CMU walls and foundations. The fee is $15,385 for DeepScan + 15% markup = $17,700. See attached destructive testing fee proposal from DeepScan.

This extra fee is based on amount of time we estimate that it will take to refine and to complete the added scope, and secondly, a percentage of the construction cost. For the time we estimate will take to complete the added scope, we have attached a spreadsheet showing the amount of time and cost to complete each task. See attached spreadsheet.

We are requesting an Extra Fee of $117,700 for the additional scope stated above. If approved, the overall project design fee will now be $362,300 Original Fee + $117,700 Extra Fee = $480,000 total overall fee. However, we wish to reconcile the Scope of Work with our Fee before we get too far into the Construction Document phase of design. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me personally at (310) 480-7730 cell.

a. Performance of site reconnaissance to identify site features that might impact the proposed geotechnical investigation, and to mark four (4) suitable locations for the ensuing exploratory drilling, followed by 72-hour notification to the Underground Service Alert (USA). b. Review of publicly available geotechnical, geological and seismological data and literature relevant to the Site, in particular References 1 and 2. The preliminary review of CGS’s seismic hazard map pertinent to the Site indicates that the Site is located within liquefaction hazard zone. c. Excavation, sampling and logging of two (2) exploratory hand auger boring extending to maximum depths of up to 15 feet below the existing ground surface to determine general subsurface conditions and to delineate any other soil and geologic parameters that may affect the proposed development. Existing slabs or pavements will be patched with cold patch asphalt or rapid set concrete where applicable.
d. Excavation of two (2) shallow test boring to five (5) feet deep for percolation testing. If the Project Civil Consultant prefers specific areas on-site for future stormwater LID system installation, ASE will locate the percolation test holes in those specific areas once such information is available to ASE prior to our field investigation. ASE proposes to advance the percolation test holes with hand auger on the same day when performing geotechnical field investigation aforementioned under Item c above, followed by performing field percolation tests in the test holes utilizing water from a ASEtransported water tank, in accordance with the Los Angeles County procedures modified to test the cross sectional zone of typical soils within the level of anticipated storm water infiltration (e.g. approximately 1 foot to 5 feet below existing grade). The results of field percolation testing will be based upon for the calculation of the allowable design infiltration rates. e. Performance of geotechnical laboratory testing for the determination of soil’s classification, gradation, in-situ density/moisture, maximum dry density/optimum moisture content of soil materials encountered during site investigation to provide basis for subsequent engineering analyses.
f. Performance of geotechnical evaluations and analyses based on field findings and laboratory test data, followed by assembly of recommendations for pertinent design parameters and construction criteria for remedial grading, foundations, slabs, ancillary improvements, pavements, and utilities, in compliance with pertinent 2022 CBC and Couty of Riverside requirements. g. Preparation of a Report of Geotechnical Investigation (the Soils Report) presenting our findings, conclusions and recommendations, which includes, but not limited to, site subsurface soils conditions and stratification, groundwater depth, geologic and seismic hazard assessment and mitigation, data and results obtained from field investigation and laboratory testing, remedial grading criteria, design and construction parameters of temporary excavation and shoring, building foundation, slab-on-grade, pavements, and utility trenches. The Soils Report will also address the
