Meeting Date: April 21, 2026

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT
TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
FROM: Daniel Fox, City Manager
SUBJECT: Arbor Day Proclamation.

STRATEGIC GOAL: Open, Engaged and Responsive Government RECOMMENDATION:

Adopt a Proclamation declaring April 25, 2026 as Arbor Day.

FINANCIAL IMPACT:

None.

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.

3. Community Forestry Program with a Budget:

Page 25 of 159 ends

Agenda Item #: 7.3
Meeting Date: April 21, 2026
• Allocate financial resources for a community forestry program.

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.

ANALYSIS:

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 25, 2026 as “Arbor Day”.

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT
TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
FROM: Daniel Fox, City Manager
SUBJECT: Agreement with Willdan Financial Services to prepare a Development Impact Fee Study.

STRATEGIC GOAL: Responsible Stewardship of Public Resources RECOMMENDATION:

FINANCIAL IMPACT:

The not-to-exceed amount of the agreement is $73,500.00. Sufficient funds are included in the Fiscal Year 2025/26 budget to cover the cost of such services.

BACKGROUND:

The City of Diamond Bar is seeking to prepare a comprehensive Development Impact Fee (DIF) study to ensure that new development contributes its fair share toward the cost of public facilities and infrastructure needed to support growth. To date, the City has not implemented development impact fees, relying instead on existing revenues to maintain and expand public facilities. However, as development and redevelopment activity continues within the City, the demand placed on public infrastructure, community amenities, and essential services is increasing. Without a structured fee program, the cost burden to maintain adequate service levels may fall disproportionately on existing residents and businesses.

Recent and anticipated development includes residential infill, commercial improvements, and regional growth pressures that influence traffic circulation, parks and recreation demand, public safety service needs, and general municipal infrastructure. Establishing a legally defensible and equitable DIF program will help the City plan for and finance necessary capital improvements, ensure consistency with the City’s General Plan, and promote long-term fiscal sustainability.

ANALYSIS:

The City issued a Request for Proposals (RFP) on October 31, 2025 through the City's online bidding platform (PlanetBids), with a submission deadline of November 21, 2025. A total of three (3) proposals were received:

Agenda Item #: 7.4
Meeting Date: April 21, 2026
Ranking Vendor Bid
Amount
1 Willdan Financial
Services
$73,500
2 DTA Public Finance $94,560
3 Matrix Consulting
Group
$33,500
All proposals were evaluated through a comprehensive review process. The two highest-ranked firms, Willdan Financial Services and DTA Public Finance Inc., advanced to reference checks.

Willdan Financial Services submitted the highest-ranked proposal, demonstrating a thorough and well-structured approach, strong familiarity with the City's existing fee structure, and highly favorable references. While DTA Public Finance, Inc. also advanced to reference checks, their cost proposal resulted in a lower ranking.

Although Matrix Consulting Group submitted the lowest bid, their proposal covered the scope at a less detailed level, allocating fewer hours overall to the project. As the City has not previously completed a Development Impact Fee Study, establishing a comprehensive and defensible foundation is critical. Matrix's more limited approach resulted in a lower overall ranking.

Based on the evaluation and ranking of proposals, it is recommended that the City award the contract to Willdan Financial Services (Attachment 1).

LEGAL REVIEW:

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

2. ABOUT THE CITY
Diamond Bar is a scenic community located on the eastern edge of Los Angeles County, within minutes of Orange, Riverside, and San Bernardino counties. With its origin as a center for ranching perched among a landscape of rolling hills in the East San Gabriel Valley, Diamond Bar became one of the first master planned communities in Los Angeles County dating back to 1956, and has grown since that time to be known for its friendly country-living atmosphere, abundant open spaces, exceptional public facilities, well-maintained parks and hiking trails, and excellent schools. In 1989, Diamond Bar became the 86th city in Los Angeles County. Today, Diamond Bar covers 14.9 square miles and is home to over 57,000 residents.

Diamond Bar operates under the council-manager form of government.

Residents elect a five-member City Council, which selects a Mayor and Mayor Pro Tem each year to serve for one year. The City Council also appoints a City Manager to supervise the City’s day-to-day operations.

3. PROJECT BACKGROUND
The City of Diamond Bar is seeking to complete a comprehensive Development Impact Fee (DIF) study to ensure that new development contributes its fair share toward the cost of public facilities and infrastructure needed to support growth. To date, the City has not implemented development impact fees, relying instead on existing revenues to maintain and expand public facilities. However, as development and redevelopment activity continues within the City, the demand placed on public infrastructure, community amenities, and essential services is increasing. Without a structured fee program, the cost burden to maintain adequate service levels may fall disproportionately on existing residents and businesses.

4. SCOPE OF WORK AND DELIVERABLES
The purpose of this study is to analyze the impact of new development on public facilities, identify capital improvement needs attributable to growth, and recommend a fee structure that is fair, transparent, compliant with the California Mitigation Fee Act (AB 1600), and aligned with community expectations. The resulting fee program will provide the City with a clear and implementable mechanism to fund growth-related capital improvements while preserving the quality of life and level of service standards valued by Diamond Bar residents.

At minimum, the consultant shall perform the following tasks:

1. Project Initiation & Data Collection
• Meet with City staff to refine project scope and schedule. • Review relevant City planning documents (General Plan, Capital Improvement Program, master plans, and fee ordinances)

2. Needs Assessment & Methodology
• Identify public facilities and infrastructure categories eligible for impact fees (e.g., general government facilities, parks and recreation, public safety, street improvement, etc.).
• Assess existing service levels and anticipated facility needs based on projected growth.
• Recommend appropriate methodologies consistent with the Mitigation Fee Act and case law.

3. Nexus Analysis & Fee Calculation
• Establish the reasonable relationship (“nexus”) between new development and the demand for public facilities.
• Calculate proposed impact fees for residential (single-family, multi-family) and non-residential (retail, office, industrial, other) land uses. • Compare proposed fee levels with those of neighboring jurisdictions.

4. Draft & Final Nexus Study
• Prepare draft report for City staff review.
• Revise and submit final Nexus Study incorporating City feedback.

5. Public & Council Presentations
• Present findings at up to three (3) public meetings (e.g., Commission, City Council).
• Provide supporting materials (slides, handouts) for public outreach.

Re: Proposal to Conduct a Development Impact Fee Study for the City of Diamond Bar Dear Ms. Mansfield:

Willdan Financial Services (“Willdan”) is pleased to present this proposal to the City of San Diamond Bar (“City”) to conduct a comprehensive development impact fee study. Willdan’s project approach helps to ensure the preparation of an impact fee study that will withstand technical challenges and public scrutiny. Given Willdan’s unmatched impact fee experience, we are particularly well positioned to serve the City and help achieve established long-term goals.

Outlined below are the advantages and benefits that Willdan will provide for the City.

Direct Recent and Ongoing Experience with the City of Diamond Bar — Willdan is currently collaborating with the City of Diamond Bar on the Cost Allocation Plan and User Fee Study. We understand the City’s fees, service delivery processes and organizational structure. We will leverage our knowledge of the City, experience with the previous Study, and relationships with key staff to streamline and expedite our work and reduce questions, focusing less time on getting up to speed and data gathering, and more on meaningful analysis, so that City Staff can focus their time on direct City operations.

Unmatched experience implementing and defending fee programs — Willdan’s impact fee staff has assisted more than 100 California government agencies with the creation and/or update of all fee types. Each project has required defensible documentation and thorough coordination of fee program changes for different agency departments and stakeholders within the business community. In many cases, Willdan has been required to negotiate fees with stakeholders and, on occasion, defend them in meetings and public forums.

We are particularly strong in advising our clients on the advantages and disadvantages of different fee schedule structures (citywide versus multiple-fee districts/zones; more versus fewer land-use categories; etc.) and methods of fee calculation that are based on the City’s and stakeholder priorities. Impact fees also need to be developed in compliance with the Mitigation Fee Act (California Government Code Section 66000 et seq., also known as Assembly Bill 1600) so that they are defensible and transparent. We are also current on the changes to fee programs and the adoption of nexus studies resulting from AB 602, which took effect in 2022.

Finally, Willdan has extensive experience with jurisdictions adopting fees for the first time, and we pride ourselves on our ability to explain impact fees and their policy implications to elected officials, staff and stakeholders.

Willdan would also like to affirm our understanding of the recent Sheetz v. County of El Dorado Supreme Court decision and subsequent state court decision. The current status of Sheetz is that the state court has upheld the El Dorado County fee program as compliant with federal takings law. The upshot of Sheetz is an increased focus on nexus and proportionality, which have always been our watchwords.

Innovative Methodologies — As Willdan operates nationally, we possess unique experiences in numerous jurisdictions dealing with multiple challenges. Our ability to produce studies that accommodate various options and viewpoints ensures fair-minded and sensible projects. Our methodology and approach to impact fees has proven to be effective for Cities and Counties, the development community, and the public. Utilizing focus groups, with established guidelines, during the study, fully informs the development community and the public of the justification of the impact fees, and their positive effect on community growth.

Best-in-class impact fee team that can work immediately to prepare an impact fee program — The Willdan team begins a project by evaluating the municipality’s existing infrastructure needs, and current capital planning policies and funding programs.

Not all capital projects are amenable to funding from impact fee programs, and we identify sources that complement fee revenues to fully fund the capital improvement program. The team’s Principal-in-Charge James Edison and Project Manager Carlos Villarreal are well respected by our clients for their skill in proactively organizing a clear, consensusbased project approach.

Successful project completion — Willdan has successfully completed many development impact fee studies, including most recently in the cities of Newport Beach, Irvine, Buena Park, Brea, Irwindale, Claremont, Chino Hills, Pomona, Pismo Beach, Arroyo Grande, Indian Wells, Fontana, Hemet, Murrieta, Eastvale, Yucaipa, Barstow, Apple Valley, Palm Desert, Cudahy, Bell Gardens, and Bell. We are currently working on impact for the cities of Garden Grove, San Gabriel, Azusa, and Temple City.

Our team is excited about this opportunity to serve the City of Diamond Bar once again. To discuss any aspect of our proposal, please contact Mr. James Edison; his contact information is provided in the table below.

City of Irvine, CA
Development Impact Fee Update
In 2024, Willdan was engaged to conduct a Comprehensive Development Impact Fee Study to update fees in compliance with the Mitigation Fee Act. The study also took into consideration the effects of recent legislation, such as AB 516 and AB 602, to ensure that the fees are defensible and transparent.

The City sought to enhance its impact fee program to align with evolving growth projections, project costs, and facility standards. This initiative aimed to ensure that new developments contribute appropriately to funding essential facilities. Willdan took the lead in crafting a robust justification for the proposed fees based on clear and reasonable relationships, adhering to careful review standards. The team developed a schedule of well-defined, maximum-justified fees tailored to various land use categories. Engaging stakeholders, Willdan fostered public support for the impact fee program and provided thorough documentation of all assumptions, methodologies, and outcomes, ensuring transparency and accountability throughout the process.

Development Impact Fee Study
Willdan conducted a comprehensive Development Impact Fee Study for the City of Newport Beach that aimed to establish new impact fees essential for the enhancement and sustainability of key community services, including Recreation, Police, Fire/Life Safety, and Water and Sewer facilities. This in-depth study adhered to the guidelines set forth by the Mitigation Fee Act, as well as recent legislative changes encapsulated in AB 516 and AB 602.

In conducting the study, a detailed evaluation of the City’s current level of service was performed for each facility type, allowing for an understanding of existing capacities and areas in need of improvement. The analysis then transitioned to a proportional allocation of future resource requirements, effectively linking these needs to new developments based on anticipated increases in demand. The findings from the compliant study were compiled and presented to the City Council during a public hearing, where they were adopted unanimously.

Development Impact Fee Study
Willdan assisted the City of Pismo Beach with an second update to their impact fee program. The program included the following facilities: police, fire protection, park and recreation improvements, water system improvements, wastewater, traffic, and general government/administrative facilities. This project was warranted due to the amount of time that had elapsed since the prior update, coupled with the adoption of new and revised public facility master plans that complemented the updated impact fees.

Prior to fee program adoption, Willdan held a stakeholder meeting to inform the public about the project, and to solicit feedback from the development community.

Development Impact Fee Study
Willdan was retained to perform a comprehensive update to the City’s impact fee program in 2023, after updating the program on two prior occasions. Their program included a variety of facility fee categories including arterial streets, traffic signals, interchanges, parks, recreation, fire, police, library, corporation yard, maintenance equipment, and animal shelter facilities. The nexus study justified fees that were significantly higher than the City’s current fees, partially because the fees had not been comprehensively updated in some time. Willdan worked with City staff to recommend a phased approach to implementation, so that the City could increase their fees on a regular schedule providing developers with certainty specific to the fee amounts in the near future.

Development Impact Fee Study 12
City of Diamond Bar, CA
D. Methodology / Project Understanding
This section outlines Willdan Financial Services’ (“Willdan”) understanding of the situation surrounding the City of Diamond Bar’s (“City”) desire to establish a development impact fee study, as well as identify the project objectives and discusses the background regarding public facilities financing in California. Also outlined is an overview of our impact fee project approach.

Project Understanding
As part of the larger financial planning effort for Diamond Bar General Plan and the City’s downtown, the City seeks to enhance the funding of infrastructure in the City. As part of this effort, the City desires to establish impact fees to ensure a fair and reasonable fee structure, while meeting the requirements of the California Mitigation Fee Act (California Government Code 66000 et seq). The resulting fees will fund new development’s share of planned facilities, while not overburdening development. Based on prior discussions with staff, Willdan understands there is interest in updating the traffic mitigation fee and potentially establishing the following fees:
▪ General Government
▪ Parks and Recreation
▪ Public Safety
▪ Transportation
In addition, Willdan understood that the City may want to adopt a few other fee categories, including stormwater, sewer, water, affordable housing in-lieu, parking in-lieu, and library. This proposal assumes a total of six categories for the purposes of pricing. This can be adjusted as needed once the final list of fee categories is determined.

Project Objectives
The objective of this project is to establish development impact fees pursuant to State law. To accomplish this objective, this study will:
▪ Develop a technically defensible fee justification, based on the reasonable relationship and deferential review standards;
▪ Review and facility standards, capital facilities plans and costs, and development and growth assumptions; ▪ Provide a schedule of maximum-justified fees by land use category; and ▪ Provide comprehensive documentation of assumptions, methodologies, and results, including findings required by the Mitigation Fee Act.

Public Facilities Financing in California
The changing fiscal landscape in California during the past 40 years has steadily undercut the financial capacity of local governments to fund infrastructure. Four dominant trends stand out:

1. The passage of a string of tax limitation measures starting with Proposition 13 in 1978 and continuing through the passage of Proposition 218 in 1996;

2. Declining popular support for bond measures to finance infrastructure for the next generation of residents and businesses;

3. Steep reductions in Federal and State assistance; and Permanent shifting by the State of local tax resources to the State General Fund to offset deficit spending brought on by recessions.

Faced with these trends, many cities and counties have had to adopt a policy of "growth pays its own way." This policy shifts the burden of funding infrastructure expansion from existing rate and taxpayers onto new development.

This funding shift has been accomplished primarily through the imposition of assessments, special taxes, and development impact fees, also known as public facilities fees.

Assessments and special taxes require approval of property owners or registered voters and are appropriate when the funded facilities are directly related to the developing property. Development impact fees, on the other hand, are an appropriate funding source for facilities that benefit development jurisdiction-wide. Development fees need only a majority vote of the legislative body for adoption.

Development Impact Fee Study 13
City of Diamond Bar, CA
Summary of Approach
Willdan’s methodology for calculating public facilities fees is both simple and flexible. Simplicity is important so that the development community and the public can easily understand the justification for the fee program. At the same time, we use our expertise to reasonably ensure that the program is technically defensible.

Flexibility is important, so we can tailor our approach to the available data, and the agency’s policy objectives. Our understanding of the technical standards established by statutes and case law suggests that a range of approaches are technically defensible. Consequently, we can address policy objectives related to the fee program, such as economic development and affordable housing. Flexibility also enables us to avoid excessive engineering costs associated with detailed facility planning. We calculate the maximum justifiable impact fee and provide flexibility for the agency to adopt fees up to that amount.

Development impact fees are calculated to fund the cost of facilities required to accommodate growth. The four steps followed in an impact fee study include:
▪ Estimate existing development and future growth: Identify a base year for existing development and a growth forecast that reflects increased demand for public facilities; ▪ Identify facility standards: Determine the facility standards used to plan for new and expanded facilities; ▪ Determine facilities required to serve new development and their costs: Estimate the total amount and cost of planned facilities, and identify the share required to accommodate new development; and ▪ Calculate fee schedule: Allocate facilities costs per unit of new development to calculate the public facilities fee schedule.

We discuss key aspects of our approach to each of these steps in the subsections that follow.

Growth Projections
In most cases, we recommend use of long-range market-based projections of new development. By “long-range” we suggest 20 to 30 years to: capture the total demand often associated with major public facility investments; and support analysis of debt financing, if needed. In contrast to build out projections, market-based projections provide a more realistic estimate of development across all land uses. Build out projections typically overestimate commercial and industrial development because of the oversupply of these land uses relative to residential development.

Facility Standards
The key public policy issue in development impact fee studies is the identification of facility standards (second bullet above). Facility standards document a reasonable relationship between new development and the need for new facilities. Standards ensure that new development does not fund deficiencies associated with existing development.

Our approach recognizes three separate components of facility standards:

1. Demand standards determine the amount of facilities required to accommodate growth. Examples include park acres per thousand residents, square feet of library space per capita, or gallons of water per day. Demand standards may also reflect a level of service such as the vehicles-to-capacity (V/C) ratio used in traffic planning;

2. Design standards determine how a facility should be designed to meet expected demand, for example park improvement requirements and technology infrastructure for office space. Design standards are typically not explicitly evaluated as part of an impact fee analysis but can have a significant impact on the cost of facilities.

Our approach incorporates current facility design standards into the fee program to reflect the increasing construction cost of public facilities; and

3. Cost standards are an alternate method for determining the amount of facilities required to accommodate growth based on facility costs per unit of demand. Cost standards are useful when demand standards were not explicitly developed for the facility planning process.

Cost standards also enable different types of facilities to be analyzed based on a single measure (cost or value), useful when disparate facilities are funded by a single fee program. Examples include facility costs per capita, per vehicle trip, or cost per gallon of water per day.

City of Diamond Bar, CA
Identifying New Development Facility Needs and Costs
We can take several different approaches to identify facility needs and costs to serve new development. Typically, this is a two-step process: 1) identify total facility needs; and 2) allocate to new development its fair share of those needs. Total facility needs are often identified through a master facility planning process that typically takes place concurrent with or prior to conducting the fee study. Engineered facility plans are particularly important in the areas of traffic, water, sewer, and storm drain due to the specialized technical analysis required to identify facility needs.

There are three common methods for determining new development’s fair share of planned facilities costs: 1) the existing inventory method; 2) the planned facilities method; and 3) the system plan method. Often the method selected depends on the degree to which the community has engaged in comprehensive facility master planning to identify facility needs.

The formula used by each approach and the advantages and disadvantages of each method is summarized as follows:

Existing Inventory Method
The existing inventory method allocates costs based on the ratio of existing facilities to demand from existing development as follows:

Current Value of Existing Facilities = $/unit of demand Existing Development Demand Under this method new development funds the expansion of facilities at the same standard currently serving existing development. By definition, the existing inventory method results in no facility deficiencies attributable to existing development. This method is often used when a long-range plan for new facilities is not available. Only the initial facilities to be funded with fees are identified in the fee study. Future facilities to serve growth are identified through an annual Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) and budget process, possibly after completion of a new facility master plan.

Planned Facilities Method
The planned facilities method allocates costs based on the ratio of planned facility costs to demand from new development as follows:

Cost of Planned Facilities = $/unit of demand New Development Demand This method is appropriate when specific planned facilities can be identified that only benefit new development.

Examples include street improvements to avoid deficient levels of service or a sewer trunk line extension to a previously undeveloped area. This method is appropriate when planned facilities would not serve existing development. Under this method new development funds the expansion of facilities at the standards used for the master facility plan.

System Plan Method
This method calculates the fee based on the ratio of the value of existing facilities plus the cost of planned facilities divided by demand from existing plus new development:

Value of Existing Facilities + Cost of Planned Facilities = $/unit of demand Existing + New Development Demand This method is useful when planned facilities need to be analyzed as part of a system that benefits both existing and new development. It is difficult, for example, to allocate a new fire station solely to new development when that station will operate as part of an integrated system of fire stations that work together to achieve the desired level of service.

Police substations, civic centers, and regional parks are examples of similar facilities.

The system plan method ensures that new development does not pay for existing deficiencies. Often, facility standards based on policies such as those found in General Plans are higher than existing facility standards. This method enables the calculation of the existing deficiency required to bring existing development up to the policybased standard.

The local agency must secure non-fee funding for that portion of planned facilities, required to correct the deficiency, to ensure that new development receives the level of service funded by the impact fee.

Development Impact Fee Study 15
City of Diamond Bar, CA
Calculating the Fee Schedule
At its simplest, the fee schedule uses the cost per unit of demand discussed in the last subsection to generate the fee schedule. This unit cost is multiplied by the demand associated with a new development project to calculate the fee for that project. The fee schedule uses different demand measures by land use category to provide a reasonable relationship between the type of development and the amount of the fee. We are familiar with a wide range of methods for identifying appropriate land use categories and demand measures depending on the particular study.

Related Approach Issues
Funding and Financing Strategies
In our experience, one of the most common problems with impact fee programs and with many CIPs is that the program or plan is not financially constrained to anticipated revenues. The result is a “wish list” of projects that generate community expectations that often cannot be fulfilled. Our approach is to integrate the impact fee program into the local agency’s existing CIPs while encouraging those plans to be financially constrained to available resources. We clearly state the cost of correcting existing deficiencies, if any, to document the relationship between the fee program and the need for additional non-fee funding.

We can also address one of the most significant drawbacks of an impact fee program – the inability to support conventional public debt financing, so projects can be built before all fee revenues have been received. In collaboration with financial advisors and underwriters, we have developed specific underwriting criteria so that fees can be used to pay back borrowing if another source of credit exists. Typically, this approach involves the use of Certificates of Participation or revenue bonds that are calibrated so that they can be fully repaid using impact fee revenues.

Economic Development Concerns
The development community often is concerned that fees and other exactions will become too high for development to be financially feasible under current market conditions. Local agencies have several strategies to address this concern, including:
▪ Conducting an analysis of the total burden placed on development, by exactions, to see if feasibility may be compromised by the proposed fees;
▪ Gathering similar data on the total fee burden imposed by neighboring or competing jurisdictions; ▪ Developing a plan for phasing in the fees over several years to enable the real estate market to adjust; ▪ Providing options for developers to finance impact fees through assessments and other types of financing districts; and
▪ Imposing less than the maximum justified fee.

If less than the maximum justified fee is imposed, we will work with staff to identify alternative revenues sources for the CIP. The CIP should remain financially feasible to maintain realistic expectations among developers, policymakers, and the public.

Stakeholder Participation
Stakeholder participation throughout the study supports a successful adoption process. Our approach is to create consensus first around the need for facilities based on agreed upon facility standards. Second, we seek consensus around a feasible funding strategy for these needs, leading to an appropriate role for impact fees.

Gaining consensus among various groups requires a balanced discussion of both economic development and community service objectives. Often, our approach includes formation of an advisory committee to promote outreach to and input from the development community and other stakeholders. We have extensive experience facilitating meetings to explain the program and gain input.

Program Implementation
Fee programs require a certain level of administrative support for successful implementation. Our final report will include recommendations for appropriate procedures, such as:
▪ Regularly updating development forecasts;
▪ Regularly updating fees for capital project cost inflation; ▪ Regularly updating capital facility needs based on changing demands; ▪ Developing procedures for developer credits and reimbursements; and ▪ Including an administrative charge in the fee program.

City of Diamond Bar, CA
Work Plan
Willdan will work with the City to establish its impact fees consistent with the Mitigation Fee Act and other relevant laws. We want to ensure that our scope of services is responsive to the City’s needs and specific local circumstances.

We will work with the City to revise our proposed scope based on input prior to approval of a contract, and as needed during the course of the study.

Task 1: Identify and Consider Fee Categories and Policy Issues Objective: Identify City facilities needs and appropriate fees. Discuss potential policy issues raised by the fees and the required study. Kick-off meeting with staff to review data needs, policy issues, and schedule.

Description: Meet with the City to discuss facilities needs and appropriate fee categories, considering City requirements, stakeholder concerns, and neighboring and comparable jurisdictions. Willdan will assist the City with best practices and provide a list of typical fee categories adopted by similar jurisdictions.

If needed Willdan can attend a council workshop or other public meeting to give an overview of development impact fees and obtain input from the Council and members of the public, as appropriate.

Willdan will review agency documents related to existing capital planning policies and funding programs. Bring policy issues to City staff’s attention, as appropriate, during the project and seek guidance prior to proceeding. Potential policy issues include:
▪ Changes in implementation resulting from AB 602;
▪ Changes in approach and nexus findings necessary to comply with AB 602; ▪ Potential new impact fees for consideration
▪ Availability of existing public facility master plans and CIPs to identify needed facilities; ▪ Types of facilities to be funded by each fee;
▪ Land use categories for imposition of fees;
▪ Nexus approach to determining facility standards;
▪ Nexus approach to allocating cost burden among land uses, including need for separate fee zones;
▪ Potential alternative funding sources, if needed;
▪ Funding existing deficiencies, if identified; and
▪ Implementation concerns and strategies.

Deliverables: (1) Information requests; (2) list of fees for implementation and (3) revised project scope and schedule, (if needed).

Task 2: Identify Existing Development and Future Growth Objective: (1) Identify estimates of existing levels of development; and (2) identify a projection of future growth consistent with current planning policy.

Description: Identify base year for estimating existing levels of development and for calculating facility standards based on existing facility inventories (see Task 3). Include entitled development that would be exempt from fee program.

Consult with City staff to identify growth projections to a defined long-range planning horizon (10 to 30 years). Projections provide a basis for determining the facilities needed to accommodate growth (see Task 4). Consider projections from regional metropolitan planning agencies and other available sources - City staff to provide estimates and projections by zone if needed.

Develop approach for converting land use data to measure of facility demand. For example, identify population and employment density factors to convert population and employment estimates to dwelling units and building square footage.

Development Impact Fee Study 17
City of Diamond Bar, CA
Select appropriate approach for each impact fee based on:
▪ Available local data on facility demand by land use category; ▪ Approaches used by other agencies; and
▪ Support for other agency policy objectives.

Changes to estimates and projections during subsequent tasks could cause unanticipated effort and require an amendment to the scope of services and budget. Obtain approval of estimates and projections from City staff prior to proceeding.

Task 3: Determine Facility Standards
Note: Conduct Tasks 3, 4, and 5 separately for each intended facility and fee type. Conduct tasks concurrently because of the effect of facility standards (Task 3), facility needs (Task 4), and alternative funding (Task 5) on the fee calculation.

Objective: Determine standards to identify facilities required to accommodate growth.

Description: Identify and evaluate possible facility standards depending upon the facility type, current facility inventory data, and available facility planning documents. Consider use of: (1) adopted policy standards (e.g., General Plan, master facility plans); (2) standards derived from existing facility inventories; or (3) standards derived from a list of planned facility projects. City staff to provide policies, inventories, and project lists. Willdan will work with the City to identify additional costs that might be eligible for funding by the DIF.

Task 4: Determine Facilities Needs and Costs
Objective: Identify the type, amount and cost of facilities required to accommodate growth and correct deficiencies, if any.

Description: Quantify total planned facilities based on growth projection from Task 2 and facility standards from Task 3. Express planned facilities in general quantities such as acres of parkland, or as a specific list of capital projects from a master facility plan.

Location of planned facilities may or may not be specified. If only a general description of planned facilities is available through the planning horizon, City staff to provide a list of specific capital projects for use of fee revenues during the short term (e.g., five years).

Distinguish between: (1) facilities needed to serve growth (that can be funded by impact fees); and (2) facilities needed to correct existing deficiencies (that cannot be funded by impact fees). Use one of three cost allocation methods (existing inventory, system plan, or planned facilities).

Gather planning-level data on new facilities costs based on lump sum project cost estimates, or unit costs and project quantities (acres, building square feet, lane miles, etc.). Consider recent City experience, local market data such as land transactions, and consultant team experience from prior projects. Inflate older cost estimates to base year using appropriate cost indices.

The revised facility costs will form the basis of the capital improvement program needed for compliance with AB 602.

This scope of work does not include additional engineering analysis to identify total facility needs, existing deficiencies, or cost estimates. Any such engineering/design work can be provided under a separate contract with Willdan Engineering or a third party. However, Willdan can use rough descriptions and comparable projects to calculate a reasonable cost estimate sufficient for use in the DIF study.

Task 5: Identify Funding and Financing Alternatives
Objective: Determine the extent of alternative (non-fee) funding available for new facilities.

Description: If impact fees are going to only partially fund a capital project, the Mitigation Fee Act requires the agency report on the anticipated source and timing of the additional funding every five years. There are two types of alternative funding sources that we will identify:

1. Funding from non-impact fee sources to correct existing deficiencies; and

2. Funding from new development other than impact fees that must be credited against new development’s impact fee contributions, possibly including taxes paid to finance facilities.

City of Diamond Bar, CA
Identify anticipated alternative funding based on information from City staff or note that funds are still to be identified based on a list of probable funding alternatives. If fees will fund debt service include financing costs in the total cost of facilities.

Assume facilities to be funded predominantly on a pay-as-you-go basis. Scope does not include a cash flow analysis to analyze effect of timing of fee revenues on financing costs.

Task 6: Fee Comparison
Objective: Provide a comparison of the proposed impact fees to those of comparable/surrounding jurisdictions in Los Angeles County and an assessment of the effect of fees on development feasibility.

Description: Willdan will compare a total of four Los Angeles County jurisdictions to be selected by the City.

Willdan will also provide an assessment of the effect of the fees on project feasibility, typically using a ratio calculation to development value compared to industry benchmarks.

Typically, Willdan prepares an analysis of fees charged to a series of prototype developments (such as residential, retail, etc.) to provide an “apples to apples” comparison, but the exact methodology will be determined in consultation with the City. This comparison will be limited to four other jurisdictions.

Task 7: Calculate Fees and Prepare Report
Objective: Provide technically defensible fee report that comprehensively documents project assumptions, methodologies, and results.

Description: Generate fee schedule to apportion facility costs to individual development projects. Use facility costs per unit of demand multiplied by demand by land use category based on data developed in prior tasks.

Prepare draft report tables for City staff to review, that document each step of the analysis, including schedule of maximum justified fees by facility type land use category and all other requirements of the Mitigation Fee Act.

Following one (1) round of comments from City staff on the quantitative analysis and fee schedules, prepare administrative draft report. Following one (1) round of comments on administrative draft, prepare public draft for presentation to interested parties, the public and elected officials. This public review draft will be presented and public stakeholder meetings and at a Council informational session.

Prepare final report, if necessary, based on comments received on the public draft report. If requested, post the report on our website for public access. Note that as of January 2022, the Nexus study is adopted separately from the fees, and with a 30-day notice.

Fees will be calculating residential land uses in compliance with AB 602.

Provide legal counsel with copies of fee resolutions and ordinances used by other jurisdictions.

Deliverables: If necessary, we will provide up to two (2) bound copies of the draft report, one (1) unbound copy, one (1) Microsoft Word copy; and up to two (2) bound copies of the final report.

Task 8: Meetings
Objective: The project manager or other necessary Willdan staff will attend project meetings. A member of the Impact Fee project team will attend up to four (4) in-person meetings throughout the City’s engagement. Phone conferences are not considered meetings for the purposes of this scope.

Optional: Optional stakeholder and Council meetings may be requested by the City.

Staff Support
To complete our tasks, we will need the cooperation of City of Diamond Bar staff. We suggest that the City assign a key individual to represent the City as the project manager who can function as our primary contact. We anticipate that the City’s project manager will: Coordinate responses to requests for information; Coordinate review of work products; and Help resolve policy issues.

Willdan will rely on the validity and accuracy of the City’s data and documentation to complete the analysis. Willdan will rely on the data as being accurate without performing an independent verification of accuracy and will not be responsible for any errors that result from inaccurate data provided by the client or a third party.

Willdan anticipates time is of the essence for the City to begin this engagement. Typically, an impact fee study requires approximately six to seven months from notice to proceed to adoption. The proposed schedule can only be met with the cooperation of City staff. Delays in responding to our requests for data and review will result in corresponding delays to the project schedule. If that is the case, we will notify the City immediately of the possible impact on the schedule.

City Requirements
Sample Data Request
The following is only a sample request. In order to effectively and address the City’s unique needs, the project team will likely need to gather additional comprehensive data concerning the City's impact fees, demographics, stakeholders, and local conditions. The following is the typical data request for the impact fees other than those for affordable housing. In the case of affordable housing most data is from third party sources, apart any information available about existing affordable housing projects in the City.

Re: Development Impact Fee Nexus Study Update – Initial Data Request To complete this study, Willdan Financial Services will require the following information. Please forward this information by email. Additionally, we may set up a Box account for uploading large files to a project folder. Please contact us directly if you have any questions.

Development Estimates
We will use the approach and data sources listed below unless directed otherwise. Let us know if you have preferred local data sources, or sources that may be more consistent with other current planning efforts or impact fee programs. ▪ Existing current population and employment estimates.

We will develop estimates based on the most current California Department of Finance (DOF) and US Census data.
▪ Future projections (such as for 2045) of population and employment.

We will work with you and your staff to determine the most appropriate projections to use ▪ Household and employment density factors.

We will develop household density based on local Census data. We will develop employment density factors based on data from the latest ITE Trip Generation Manual.

Existing Facilities Inventory
Please provide an inventory of existing public safety facilities and parks and recreation facilities. Note that the transportation and utilities (water and sewer) impact fees rely on different data.

For the existing inventory, please include:
▪ Amount of owned land acreage;
▪ Amount of developed and undeveloped parkland acreage; ▪ Amount of building square feet for owned buildings;
▪ Vehicles owned, by type and the estimated valuation of those vehicles; and ▪ A brief description of any equipment or other asset that would add significant value to the current replacement value of existing facilities, such as recent networking and central computer system investments.

Capital Improvement Plans or Recent Master Plans
If available, please provide master facilities plans or other capital improvement plans that have been completed and are still relevant (i.e. not outdated) for any of the facility types to be included in this study. Specifically, be sure to include the following information for all facility categories, if future facility plans have been identified:
▪ Project list / facility plans for all fee categories; ▪ Amount of land acreage for future parcels upon which facilities will be located; ▪ Amount of building square feet for planned buildings; ▪ Number of vehicles; and
▪ Any related capital equipment.

Development Impact Fee Study 22
City of Diamond Bar, CA
Unit Cost Estimates
We also need your best estimate of unit costs for each of the facilities listed in the inventory of existing and planned facilities. In most cases, unit cost estimates should reflect today’s cost of building to current standards or purchasing at current market values the facility or asset that the City would expand to serve growth. In some cases, discounted costs may be more applicable, especially for older buildings and assets and/or those requiring significant repair or reconstruction. We can use unit cost estimates from other recent studies completed for comparable clients if necessary but would prefer local data if available.

Based on the facility list above, we would need unit costs for:
▪ Per acre cost for land acquisition;
▪ Per acre cost of standard park amenities;
▪ Per square foot cost, including all soft costs, for buildings; ▪ Costs per vehicle by type of vehicle;
▪ Lump sum replacement cost for other facilities or equipment included in inventory.

Building Permit Data
Please provide at least one year of historical building permit data for new residential dwelling units, listing the size in square feet of each new unit built.

Agenda Item #: 7.5
Meeting Date: April 21, 2026

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT
TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
FROM: Daniel Fox, City Manager
SUBJECT: Purchase of a F5 BIG-IP VPN Appliance.

STRATEGIC GOAL: Responsible Stewardship of Public Resources RECOMMENDATION:

Approve and authorize the City Manager to issue a purchase order to GovConnection, Inc. for the purchase of a F5 BIG-IP VPN Appliance with Service and Support in the not-to-exceed amount of $21,683.01.

FINANCIAL IMPACT:

Sufficient funds are included in the FY 2025-26 Adopted Budget from the Equipment Maintenance and Replacement Fund (Fund 503) to accommodate the purchase.

BACKGROUND:

The daily operations of the City rely on the use of computers, specialized networks, and associated hardware and software to create, process, and store digital information and communicate with the public. To ensure the City’s essential information systems infrastructure remains in place, it is proposed that a F5 BIG-IP VPN Appliance be purchased.

ANALYSIS:

As required by the purchasing ordinance, the City solicited bids through the Planet Bids website for an F5 BIG-IP VPN Appliance with Service and Support. Six vendors registered to bid. However, only 1 vendor submitted a bid by the posted due date.

Bidder Bid Amount
GovConnection Inc. $21,683.01
Staff has determined that GovConnection, Inc. is the lowest-cost responsible bidder, meeting all technical requirements. While this particular purchase falls under the City Manager’s spending authority, the City has made separate year-to-date purchases with this vendor that cumulatively exceed the $45,000 threshold when combined with the recommendation in this report. Therefore, this purchase must be approved by the City Council.

Agenda Item #: 7.6
Meeting Date: April 21, 2026

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT
TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
FROM: Daniel Fox, City Manager
SUBJECT: Acceptance of a MUSCO Mini-Pitch System Donation at Pantera Park.

STRATEGIC GOAL: Safe, Sustainable and Healthy Community RECOMMENDATION:

A. Approve, and authorize the City Manager to sign, the Memorandum of Understanding with MUSCO Lighting LLC. for improvements at Pantera Park; and
B. Appropriate $17,000 from the Park Development Fund (262) for the procurement and installation of two Bison basketball hoops.

FINANCIAL IMPACT:

The estimated cost of the system is valued at $125,000, all of which is donated by MUSCO Sports Lighting, LLC and the Alex Morgan Foundation. The two additional Bison basketball hoops will cost approximately $17,000 and, if approved, would be appropriated from the Park Development Fund (262).

BACKGROUND:

Designed to help create safer places to play in areas with limited space, Musco’s Mini-Pitch System was developed in collaboration with U.S. Soccer Foundation. This all-in-one modular system offers an ideal solution for communities to maximize court space, creating a fun and active place for local youth and families to come together in the spirit of teamwork, empowerment, and fitness. These systems are multifunctional and can include amenities for soccer, basketball and pickleball play. Each system includes fencing, goals, benches, and lockable storage.

ANALYSIS:

City staff was approached in late 2025 by MUSCO Lighting LLC to gauge interest in a potential donation for one Mini-Pitch System. Although recent systems have been donated in the San Diego area, the Alex Morgan Foundation retains interest in Diamond Bar based on her strong connection to the City, including receiving a key to the City in January 2016. After review and analyzation of all potential locations, City staff and MUSCO representatives recommended Pantera Park as the most suitable location. This park has the current infrastructure to host and maintain such a system without any additional construction costs. These amenities include adequate parking, restrooms, existing court lights, ADA access, and a flat concrete pad large enough to facilitate the donation.

Page 96 of 159 ends

Agenda Item #: 7.6
Meeting Date: April 21, 2026
Based on City Council's feedback and support at the February 3, 2026 Study Session, City staff and MUSCO have worked together to maximize court space by including amenities and court lines to serve soccer, basketball, and pickleball activities. If approved, it is expected the MUCSO Mini-Pitch system will take less than a week to install and should commence in late summer 2026, including a public ribbon cutting event. In the meantime, City staff will work on creating posted hours of play that are sport-specific throughout the week to ensure balanced use of the three sports.

LEGAL REVIEW:

The City Attorney has reviewed and approved the MOU and Purchase Agreement as to form.

OUTDOOR ATHLETIC SURFACES
Outdoor Mini-Pitch Athletic Surfacing
Performance
Specifically engineered to maximize grip and performance while optimizing safety for players of all ages. This patent-pending formulation provides the best wet and dry traction in the industry.

Safety
PickleGrip provides a 13% force reduction for vertical impacts and a much lower skin abrasion than acrylic or concrete. There is also a slight give that allows the tiles to move laterally to reduce repeated stresses on joints.

Ball Play
The surface in engineered with rubber embedded into the polymer for great shoe and ball performance. Whether used for Futsal, Basketball, Pickleball or other sports, PickleGrip is an all-around performer. The patented locking system also keeps the tiles from moving vertically to ensure true ball roll and bounce characteristics.

Aesthetics
All concrete and acrylic crack. PickleGrip covers the unsightly cracks and looks good for the life of your Mini-Pitch. If subsurface cracking needs to be addressed in the future, it is easy to remove a section of the surface, deal with the cracking, and reinstall the section.

Versatility
Your Mini-Pitch is an investment in the future of your community and there are many uses for your pitch. Beyond Futsal, SnapSports surfaces are great for basketball, volleyball, pickleball, roller hockey and many other sports. Additionally, gatherings and events can be held on the surface.

Maintainability/Longevity
Rain naturally drains and follows the slope of the sub-surface. Snow and leaves are easily blown or shoveled. If ever needed the surface can be bleached or pressured washed. SnapSports products are manufactured with the strongest UV stabilizers to ensure minimal fading and maximum performance throughout the 16-year warranty and beyond.

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT
TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
FROM: Daniel Fox, City Manager
SUBJECT: Agreement with the Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority for the Fulfillment of Unprogrammed Federal Surface Transportation Program — Local Funds.

STRATEGIC GOAL: Responsible Stewardship of Public Resources RECOMMENDATION:

A. Determine that approving the fund exchange agreement and allocating the fund to the Project, are exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) under Section 15301(c) of the CEQA Guidelines;
B. Approve, and authorize the City Manager to sign, the Fulfillment Agreement with the Los Angeles County Metropolitan Authority for the STP-L fund of the Diamond Bar Complete Streets Project in a notto-exceed amount of $1,166,000; and C. Approve and authorize changes to the funding for the Project as provided.

FINANCIAL IMPACT:

A combination of grants and special funds currently funds the Project's construction phase (CIP# SI256). After the fulfillment process is complete, the City will use the $162,985 in Proposition C funding received from this STPL fulfillment process to replace the local Proposition C ($150,000) funding currently allocated to the Project. The local Proposition C will be returned to reserve for use in other projects. As a result of this replacement, the project's overall budget will increase by $12,985 to a total amount of $10,589,985.

BACKGROUND:

Surface Transportation Program – Local (STP-L) refers to federal-aid highway funds allocated to states and to local governments for use on eligible projects. These funds, as they were at the time of their allocation to the City, were formula-based and subject to strict federal obligation limits. The City has $162,985 in "unprogrammed" federal STP-L funds that could have been permanently lost due to the program change. To prevent the loss of the funds, the City opted to exercise the one-time fulfillment option provided by the Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority (Metro) and receive the unprogrammed STP-L balances using available non-federal Metro funds. This will enable the City to use the balance towards an eligible project without having to follow federal funding requirements for the fund. The City's Diamond Bar Boulevard Complete Streets Project (Project, CIP# SI256) is identified as the eligible project for this fulfillment process. This is

Page 136 of 159 ends

Agenda Item #: 7.7
Meeting Date: April 21, 2026
in addition to the $1.166 million "programmed" federal STP-L funding approved by the City Council on February 17, 2026, to be exchanged with Proposition C funding to be allocated for the Project.

ANALYSIS:

The City and Metro collaborated on a fulfillment agreement (Attachment 1), under which the City would receive $162,985 in Proposition C funding for the Project to fulfill the City's unprogrammed STP-L funding. After completing the fulfillment process as outlined in the agreement, the City proposes to replace other funding sources of the Project with this Proposition C funding as follows:

1 FULFI LLMENT AGREEMENT FOR UNPROGRAMMED SURFACE

TRANSPORTATION PROGRAM -LOCAL (STP-L)
This Fulfillment Agreement of Proposition C Funds ("AGREEMENT"), is made and entered into as of March 1, 2026, by and between the City of Diamond Bar ("CITY") and the Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority ("LACMTA").

RECITALS:

LACMTA had historically apportioned, on an annual basis, $31 million of Federal Surface Transportation Block Grant (STBG) funds to agencies in Los Angeles County based on population through the STP-L funding program.

WHEREAS, in 2021 and 2022, the federal government issued a Corrective Action to Caltrans and the Southern California Association of Governments (SCAG), respectively, finding that the practice of allocating STP-L by population was out of compliance with STBG requirements; and WHEREAS, on July 1, 2023, the Corrective Action took effect on the Federal Transportation Improvement Program (FTIP) and prevented agencies from programming and accessing their unprogrammed STP-L balance through the FTIP; and
WHEREAS, the LACMTA Board of Directors at its April 24, 2025, meeting approved using Proposition C funds to fulfill $162,985 of unprogrammed STP-L balance for the City of Diamond Bar; and
WHEREAS, eligible project activities must occur on or after the LACMTA Board of Directors April 24, 2025, approval date; and
NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual benefits to be derived by CITY and LACMTA, and of the promises contained herein, it is hereby agreed as follows:

AGREEMENT:

1. LACMTA hereby provides a fulfillment of $162,985
to the City of Diamond Bar for use on eligible project(s), to be determined by LACMTA. This assignment shall be automatically effective upon full execution of this AGREEMENT without the necessity of the execution, delivery or recording of any further instrument whatsoever. Notwithstanding the foregoing, at LACMTA's request, CITY shall execute and deliver such documents and instruments as may be required to evidence such assignment of the Funds.

2. CITY must complete and submit an Automated Clearing House (ACH) form (Attachment A) through LACMTA's website to allow LACMTA to make disbursements electronically. Disbursements via ACH will be made at no cost to CITY. If electronic disbursements are not the preferred method of disbursement, CITY may request an exception

Page 138 of 159 ends

Agreement Number 9200000000FUL14
2 in writing.

3. CITY shall expend the Funds on eligible project(s), consistent with the Statement of Work, Schedule and Budget provided in Attachment B.

4. For the purposes of this AGREEMENT, the term "Eligible Project" shall mean the transportation activities described in the Proposition C Guidelines.

5. CITY must use the LACMTA Funds in the most cost-effective manner. If CITY intends to use a consultant or contractor to implement all or part of the Eligible Project, LACMTA requires that such activities be procured in accordance with CITY's contracting procedures and be consistent with State law as appropriate. CITY will also use the LACMTA Funds in the most cost-effective manner when the LACMTA Funds are used to pay "inhouse" staff time. CITY staff or consultants with project oversight roles may not award work to companies in which they have a financial or personal interest. This effective use of funds provision will be verified by LACMTA through on-going project monitoring and through any LACMTA interim and final audits.

6. CITY shall submit Quarterly Progress and Expenditure Reports (Attachment C) to LACMTA that cover all activities related to the project, including deliverables, milestones, and costs incurred. The reports are due to LACMTA one month after the close of each quarter on October 31, January 31, April 30, and July 31. In cases where there are no activities to report, or problems causing delays, clear explanation, including actions to remedy the situation, must be provided.

7. LACMTA, and/or its designee, shall have the right to conduct audits of CITY's use of the LACMTA Funds, as deemed appropriate, such as financial and compliance audits; interim audits; pre-award audits, performance audits, and final audits. CITY agrees to establish and maintain proper accounting procedures and cash management records and documents in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP). CITY's records shall include, without limitation, any supporting evidence deemed necessary by LACMTA to substantiate CITY's use of LACMTA Funds. These records must be retained by CITY for five years following CITY's last use of the LACMTA Funds. CITY shall reimburse LACMTA for any expenditure not in compliance with the Scope of Work and/or not in com pliance with other terms and conditions of this AGREEMENT. The eligibility of costs for CITY's own expenditures submitted to LACMTA for the Eligible Project shall be in compliance with Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Circular A -87 (relocated to Title 2 in the Code of Federal Regulations, Subtitle A, Chapter II, part 225). The eligibility of costs for CITY's contractors, consultants, and suppliers expenditures submitted to LACMTA through CITY's Quarterly Progress and Expenditure Reports shall be in compliance with OMB Circular A-87 (as relocated) or Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Subpart 31 (whichever is applicable).

Findings of the LACMTA audit are final. When LACMTA audit findings require CITY to return monies to LACMTA, CITY agrees to return the monies within thirty (30) days after the final audit is sent to CITY.

8. The terms of this AGREEMENT shall commence on the date that this AGREEMENT

Page 139 of 159 ends

Agreement Number 9200000000FUL14
3 is fully executed and shall terminate once CITY has expended all the LACMTA Funds and all LACMTA audit and reporting requirements have been satisfied.

9. CITY shall fully indemnify, defend and hold LACMTA and its officers, agents, and employees harmless from and against any liability and expenses, including, without limitation, defend costs, any costs or liability on account of bodily injury, death or perso nal injury of any person, or for damages of any nature whatsoever arising out of (i) a breach of CITY's obligations under this AGREEMENT; or (ii) any act or omission of CITY or its officers, agents, employees, contractors, or subcontractors in the use o f the LACMTA Funds.

10. LACMTA shall fully indemnify, defend and hold CITY and its officers, agents, and employees harmless from and against any liability and expenses, including, without limitation, defend costs, any costs or liability on account of bodily injury, death or personal injury of any person, or for damages to or loss of risk of property, any environmental obligations, any legal fees and any claims for damages of any nature whatsoever arising out of (i) a breach of LACMTA's obligations under this AGREEMENT; or (ii) any act or omission of LACMTA or its officers, agents, employees, contractors, or subcontractors in the use of CITY's Funds.

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT
TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
FROM: Daniel Fox, City Manager
SUBJECT: Amendments to the Diamond Bar City Code Prohibiting Camping on Public Places and Interfering with Public Access.

STRATEGIC GOAL: Safe, Sustainable and Healthy Community RECOMMENDATION:

AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF DIAMOND BAR REPEALING DIAMOND BAR CITY CODE SECTION 10.16.115 AND ADDING CHAPTER 8.28 TO TITLE 8 OF THE DIAMOND BAR CITY CODE TO PROHIBIT CAMPING ON PUBLIC PLACES AND INTERFERING WITH PUBLIC ACCESS.

FINANCIAL IMPACT:

None. The Ordinance may result in the reduction of frequent and repetitive requests for service, cleanup of encampments, and the mitigation of public health risks.

BACKGROUND:

The legal landscape with respect to unsheltered populations has changed dramatically over the past several years, due in large part to the decisions in Martin v. City of Boise 920 F.3d 584 (9th Cir. 2019) and Johnson v. City of Grants Pass 72 F.4th 868 (9th Cir. 2023), which limited cities’ abilities to enforce city-wide anti-camping bans when alternative shelter was not available.

On June 28, 2024, the United States Supreme Court reversed the lower court ruling in Grants Pass, determining that the enforcement of generally applicable laws regulating camping on public property did not constitute cruel and unusual punishment under the Eighth Amendment. On July 25, 2024, the Governor issued an Executive Order directing state agencies to remove homeless encampments on State property.

While not to the degree that many of our surrounding cities have experienced, Diamond Bar has seen an increase in the annual Los Angeles Homeless Services Authority (LAHSA) Point-in-time (PIT) count. Each year the City participates in the annual count within SPA 3 East San Gabriel Valley. For example, the 2018 PIT count identified four (4) unsheltered individuals within the City, with the 2023 PIT count identifying 32 persons. The 2025 City count identified approximately 42 persons in the City, with approximately 81% of those residing in cars, vans, or recreational vehicles.

Page 148 of 159 ends

Agenda Item #: 9.1
Meeting Date: April 21, 2026

The City’s response to the unhoused is with the understanding that it is a nationwide concern, it cannot be solved by any single entity, and that not having a home is not a crime. The City has focused efforts on establishing partnerships with the San Gabriel Valley Council of Governments (SGVCOG) to utilize the Los Angeles Housing Service Authority (LAHSA), Los Angeles Centers for Alcohol and Drug Abuse (LA-CADA) and Los Angeles Sheriff Department’s Mental Health Evaluation team (MHET), to offer outreach and assistance to those experiencing homelessness and mental health concerns.

While the City and SGVCOG partners have sought to provide support and outreach to homeless individuals, including offering shelter and services, unauthorized camping has resulted in public safety concerns, health hazards, and adverse impacts on the general quality of life for residents and businesses. In some cases, individuals encamp on public and private property and refuse to accept resources or rehousing options. This often leads to the continuation of public safety and public health concerns as public and private property is not often designed to shelter the unhoused.

In light of the recent U.S. Supreme Court decision and the Governor’s Executive Order, an Ordinance that prohibits unauthorized camping on public places and public streets has been prepared to provide a more comprehensive and updated set of code provisions to provide clarity and are reflective of the different situations encountered in the field. The proposed Ordinance provides some options to address the ongoing challenges posed by unauthorized camping on public places. By adopting this Ordinance, the City is focused on its dual role of promoting public safety and the continuation of efforts to connect vulnerable individuals with necessary support services.

ANALYSIS:

The proposed Ordinance amends the Diamond Bar City Code to make it unlawful to camp, lodge, or sleep on public streets, sidewalks, parks, open space areas or any city-owned property and on some public places on private property open to the public. The Ordinance aims to address several key concerns:
• Public Safety: Encampments on city streets and public property present safety risks to pedestrians and drivers, obstructing rights-of-way, and potentially endangering public safety personnel during emergencies. Encampments within parks and open space areas present significant risk for wildfires as much of the City is located within Very High Fire Severity Zones (VHFSZ) (Attachment 2). • Public Health: Outdoor living on city property and streets without proper sanitation or waste disposal can lead to unsanitary conditions, increasing the risk of diseases and environmental degradation. • Business and Residential Impacts: Unauthorized camping has led to significant negative impacts on local businesses and residential neighborhoods, including reduced foot traffic in commercial areas and an increase in calls for service related to disturbances and property crime.

The key provisions of the Ordinance include:
• Prohibition of Camping: The ordinance makes it unlawful to camp, lodge, or sleep on public streets, sidewalks, parks, public property and other public places. The ordinance defines "camping" as using public places for living accommodations, including erecting tents or other shelters or vehicles for sleeping, storing personal property, or making open fires. While the Ordinance will provide an additional tool, it is unlikely that it will by itself solve local homelessness issues, nor allow the City to remove persons from the City. As we all know, homelessness is a societal issue that is much bigger than Diamond Bar. It encompasses everything from supportive housing development to substance abuse treatment to mental health services, all of which are limited locally.

Since this section includes a prohibition of using vehicles for sleeping, City Code Section 10.16.115 is proposed to be repealed to avoid redundancy. City Code Section 10.16.115 was adopted by Ordinance 10 (2013) in November 2013 (Attachment 3) which states:
“10.16.115 – Prohibited Parking

Page 149 of 159 ends

Agenda Item #: 9.1
Meeting Date: April 21, 2026
No person shall park or leave standing any vehicle on any public street, any public alley or upon any public property for the purpose of sleeping, unless otherwise authorized by this Code or by the owner of such property.”
• Exemptions for Emergencies and City-Sanctioned Events: The Ordinance includes exemptions for emergency situations, city-sanctioned events, and designated shelter areas established by the City in response to natural disasters or other emergencies.
• Outreach and Support Services: The Ordinance acknowledges that enforcement must be coupled with compassionate outreach efforts. The City does not have any staff that are trained as interventionists, social workers, or law enforcement officers to directly engagement with unsheltered persons. City Staff will continue to coordinate resources and referrals to shelters, transitional housing, and services for individuals with those agency partners that provide such services to the City. Budget resources are currently limited to periodic encampment cleanups. • Enforcement: The Ordinance would become part of the Diamond Bar City Code. Violations of the Diamond Bar City Code are considered to be a Misdemeanor pursuant to City Code Section

1.04.010(a). Issuance of citations would be the responsibility of the Los Angeles County Sheriff Department. Enforcement would be cite and release, and would not guarantee that the individual(s) would vacate the public location, or return again soon thereafter. It is unlikely that repeat offenders/unpaid citations would be prosecuted.

LEGAL REVIEW:

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

10.16.115 AND ADDING CHAPTER 8.28 TO TITLE 8 OF THE

DIAMOND BAR CITY CODE TO PROHIBIT CAMPING ON PUBLIC
PLACES AND INTERFERING WITH PUBLIC ACCESS.

WHEREAS, it is the obligation of the city to keep the public rights-of-way and public places clean and available for public use and to ensure access by the public to all property, both public and private, by the disabled, elderly, families, children, and visitors to the city;
WHEREAS, since 2018, there has been a marked increase in persons erecting encampments, storing personal property on public places, and camping in vehicles on public places within the city;
WHEREAS, in recent years the incidents of camping or encampments on city streets, sidewalks, open space areas and other public places has increased by 1,000% with the Point-In-Time count showing an increase from 4 in 2018 to 42 in 2025, with approximately 81% of those residing in vehicles or recreational vehicles; WHEREAS, these encampments present risk to the life, health, and safety of those using them, as well as to others in the City, pose a risk of damage to certain environmentally sensitive areas, and inhibit the right of others to use the areas as they are intended;
WHEREAS, public places, including streets, alleyways, sidewalks, medians, parkways, driveways, bus benches, bus shelters, parks, open spaces, storm drains, public buildings parking lots, and other rights-of-way are intended for the use and enjoyment of all members of the community and should be maintained in a safe and accessible condition;
WHEREAS, the storage of unattended personal property on public places creates a safety and security risk to the public because, among other things, it can create a tripping hazard, impact a person's line-of-sight, and divert limited public resources to evaluate suspicious packages;
WHEREAS, the city has been experiencing the impacts of the increased unhoused population within its boundaries, including a marked increase in calls for service due to illegal encampments, persons living in parked vehicles, and camping on city property and other public places, resulting in threats to the life, safety, health, and welfare of its residents, damage to natural resources, and pollution of its streets, storm drains and natural waterways;
