The supporting document can be completed by any authorized person within the Agency (e.g., administrative assistant, the Authorized Agent, secretary to the Director). It does not require the Governing Body’s signature.

2. Names and Titles: If the Governing Body so chooses, the names and titles of the Authorized Agents would be listed. A new Cal OES Form 130 will be required if any of the Authorized Agents are replaced, leave the position listed on the document, or their title changes.

Professional Services Agreement Amendment with Renne Public Law Group, LLP-DBA Renne Public Policy Group (RPPG) for for State Lobbyist Services
Prepared By:

Stephanie Vasquez, Management Analyst
Recommended Action(s)
Staff recommends that the City Council: Approve Professional Services Agreement Amendment with Renne Public Law Group, LLP-DBA Renne Public Policy Group (RPPG) for an addi*onal three months; and Authorize the City Manager to execute all necessary documents.

Summary
City Council approved a contract with Renne Public Law Group, LLP-DBA Renne Public Policy Group (RPPG), for State of California lobbyist services on March 24, 2021. The current contract expires on March 23, 2023. Staff would like to extend the contract through the end of the fiscal year, June 2023, to con*nue RPPG's legisla*ve lobbying services. During the budget process for Fiscal Year 2023-24, staff will bring this item back for further considera*on, discussion, and possible further extension.

Background
In March 2021 the City Council approved a service agreement for a new state lobbyist. RPPG was selected to serve in that capacity to further the City’s legisla*ve, budgetary, and administra*ve objec*ves within the State Legislature, Office of the Governor, and Execu*ve Branch Agencies. A state lobbyist helps to monitor state proposals, legisla*on, administra*ve regula*ons, and other developments of municipal interest, advising the City when policy or program objec*ves may be affected. The agreement was for two years with a total contract amount of $132,000. Staff would 12363 Limonite Avenue | Suite 910 | Eastvale, CA 91752 951.361.0900 |
eastvaleca.gov
30 like to extend the agreement by an addi*onal three months in order to con*nue to evaluate the current service provision and bring back the item for considera*on during the 2023-24 Fiscal Year budgetary discussions.

Staff recommends that an Amendment to the Professional Service Agreement be approved with RPPG for state lobbying services for an addi*onal three months. RPPG is a newer firm, but as a newer firm, the City is considered one of its anchor clients. This means that the City’s priori*es will not come into conflict with opposing views of other clients represented by the firm. In some cases where a lobbying firm represents a large number of clients, there is a chance that the values of represented communi*es can conflict with each other. This can create conflicts for the lobbying firm as it finds a need to advocate for and against itself at the state level. Working with a newer firm that views the City as one of its anchor clients creates a solid founda*on for the city’s advocacy efforts to succeed at the state level. While the firm itself is newer, the staff at RPPG have considerable experience in advoca*ng at the state level for municipal government needs. They not only understand how to connect with the state, but they also have a keen understanding of the unique needs of cities.

If approved by the City Council, RPPG will con*nue to assist the City by monitoring and repor*ng on state legisla*on, assist with annually upda*ng the City’s legisla*ve plaHorm, advocate for the City within Sacramento on issues of interest to Eastvale, engage key officials and stakeholders in support of the City’s legisla*ve goals, assist and facilitate any advocacy mee*ngs and City Council trips with State officials, present updates before the City Council as needed, and conduct an educa*on tour at the Capital to drive awareness of the issues that matter to the City of Eastvale.

Environmental
State lobbying services are not considered a Project as defined by the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and no environmental review is required.

Strategic Plan Action - Priority Level: N/A
| Target #: N/A
| Goal #: N/A
Not applicable.

Fiscal Impact
The amendment to the professional services agreement amends the terms of the agreement and adds three addi*onal months to the term. The contract amount has not changed, and the remaining General Fund budget for the project was authorized with the 2022-23 fiscal year budget adop*on, and as a result, this contract amendment does not cause any new fiscal impact.

Prior City Council/Commission Action
This contract was originally approved by Council on March 24, 2021 with an annual amount not to exceed $66,000 for state lobbyist services.

PLN22-20078 – City-ini+ated Municipal Code Amendment (Second Reading)
Prepared By:

Gustavo N. Gonzalez, Planning Manager
Recommended Action(s)
Staff recommends that the City Council:

1 .

Determine that the proposed ordinances are not subject to the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) pursuant to Sec*ons 15060(c)(2) and 15060(c)(3) of the State of California Guidelines for Implementation of CEQA; and
2 .

Adopt the ordinances making technical and/or clarifying changes to the Municipal Code (PLN22-20078)

Background
Since its adop*on in 2012, amendments to the Zoning Code have been made on an as-needed basis as the result of periodic review of the Code by staff and changes in State law.

A summary of the proposed amendments is provided as AFachment 1 to this report and includes the description and purpose of each amendment.

Environmental
The proposed amendments are not subject to the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) pursuant to Sec*ons 15060(c)(2) and 15060(c)(3) of the State of California Guidelines for Implementa*on of CEQA (commencing with Sec*on 15000 of Title 14 of the California Code of Regula*ons; herein referred to as the “State CEQA Guidelines”) because it will not result in a direct or reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment and is not a “project,” as defined in Section 15378 of the CEQA Guidelines.

Providing non-substantive changes to current municipal code, including position title clarifications:

Replaces “Director of Building and Safety” in Sections 8.32.040 and 8.32.050, with “City Engineer” as the City Engineer is the enforcement authority within the public right-of-way.

Updates all references to “wireless communication facilities” in Section 120.04.140 with “communication facilities” to encompass all communication facilities.

Replaces “Director of Transportation” in Section 130.24.020 with “City Engineer” as the City Engineer is the processing authority for improvement plans.
3 12.08.350 (Enforcement)

Strengthens the enforcement of work in the public right-of-way to better protect City’s public right-of-way as well as providing a penalty fee for not obtaining a permit prior to work.

14.12.090 (Discharge in violation of permit)

14.12.100 (Right to inspect)
Updating the municipal code to ensure that the allowable discharges meet the Municipal separate storm sewer systems (MS4) requirements. 5 110.92 (Grading Operations) Adds a new chapter to the Municipal Code to clarifying grading operations within the City that will require a grading permit.
6 120.04.160 (Short-term Rentals)
The Eastvale Municipal Code prohibits short-term rental throughout the city.

This amendment expands the definitions of “short-term rental” and “transient” to clarify that these definitions apply to the property and its use on which a short-term rental is located, in addition to the dwelling unit. 7 120.05.010 (Dimensional Requirements)
The current Municipal Code was adopted in 2012 shortly after the city was incorporated. The adopted Code is largely based on the County of Riverside’s Municipal Code and certain sections of the Code reference zoning districts that were part of the County’s zoning map but did not get adopted in the Eastvale 57 Attachment 1
zoning map. This amendment updates and corrects an erroneously referenced zone that was not adopted by the city.
8 120.05.080 (Neighborhood Preservation)
As mentioned above, the adopted Code is largely based on the County of Riverside’s Municipal Code and certain sections of the Code reference zoning districts that were part of the County’s zoning map but did not get adopted in the Eastvale zoning map. This amendment updates and corrects an erroneously referenced zone that was not adopted by the city. This amendment also addresses the requirement to prevent more than 50 percent of the required front and side yards of residential properties from being cemented and used for parking. It requires that at least 50 percent of the front and side yards provide decorative landscaping. Finally, this amendment clarifies that areas not maintained by maintenance districts and/or homeowners’ associations are subject to the general yard maintenance requirements.
9 120.06.010 (Glossary of terms)
This amendment corrects an inconsistency related to the definition of “building setback line”. A building setback should be defined by the setback established by the underlying zone and not the distance between a given building’s footprint and the property lines.
10 Eastvale Municipal Code
This amendment replaces “Planning Director” with “Community Development Director”, as this title and position has changed since the Municipal Code was adopted.

In the event Contractor fails to obtain such indemnity obligations from others as required herein, Contractor agrees to be fully responsible according to the terms of this section. Failure of City to monitor compliance with these requirements imposes no additional obligations on City and will in no way act as a waiver of any rights hereunder.

(d) City’s Negligence. The provisions of this section do not apply to claims occurring as a result of City’s sole negligence.

SECTION 18. ASSIGNMENT.

The expertise and experience of Contractor are material considerations for this Agreement. City has an interest in the qualifications and capability of the persons and entities who will fulfill the duties and obligations imposed upon Contractor under this Agreement. In recognition of that interest, Contractor shall not assign or transfer this Agreement or any portion of this Agreement or the performance of any of Contractor’s duties or obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the City.

Any attempted assignment shall be ineffective, null and void, and shall constitute a material breach of this Agreement entitling City to any and all remedies at law or in equity, including termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 20 “Termination of Agreement.” City acknowledges, however, that Contractor, in the performance of its duties pursuant to this Agreement, may utilize subcontractors.

SECTION 19. CONTINUITY OF PERSONNEL.

This final invoice shall be reviewed and paid in the same manner as set forth in Section 4 “Compensation and Method of Payment” of this Agreement.

SECTION 21. DEFAULT.

In the event that Contractor is in default under the terms of this Agreement, the City shall not have any obligation or duty to continue compensating Contractor for any 99 - 9 -
work performed after the date of default. Instead, the City may give notice to Contractor of the default and the reasons for the default. The notice shall include the timeframe in which Contractor may cure the default. This timeframe is presumptively thirty (30) days, but may be extended, though not reduced, if circumstances warrant. During the period of time that Contractor is in default, the City shall hold all invoices and shall, when the default is cured, proceed with payment on the invoices. In the alternative, the City may, in its sole discretion, elect to pay some or all of the outstanding invoices during the period of default. If Contractor does not cure the default, the City may take necessary steps to terminate this Agreement under Section 20 “Termination of Agreement.” Any failure on the part of the City to give notice of the Contractor’s default shall not be deemed to result in a waiver of the City’s legal rights or any rights arising out of any provision of this Agreement.

SECTION 22. EXCUSABLE DELAYS.

SCOPE OF SERVICES
Phase 1: Planning
The initial phase of the project is the planning phase. During this phase, the Kearns & West team will work with the City of Eastvale staff to develop a city specific community engagement plan, an advisory committee, identify stakeholders to develop a community engagement plan, and build out a social media communications and branding strategy.

Kickoff Meeting, Site Tour, and Regular Team Meetings
To begin the process, the Kearns & West team will attend the kickoff meeting and periodic team meetings as needed for planning purposes. As a first step, the Kearns & West team will lead a kickoff meeting with City staff to review and confirm the project scope and schedule, identify stakeholder groups, and outline project priorities. The kickoff meeting will also include a tour of the site.

At the project kickoff meeting, Kearns & West will conduct an outreach assessment, which will involve a discussion of the benefits and drawbacks of various outreach strategies and digital tools, along with a staff and steering committee discussion of past community engagement efforts, successes, and lessons learned. The assessment will also address any communication needs that are unique to Eastvale. Based on the input received, Kearns & West will develop the Community Engagement Plan.

Following the kickoff meeting, Kearns & West will also hold bi-weekly team meetings with the City. These can be in person or virtual as determined by the City and project team.

The Plan will include the objectives, issue assessment, descriptions of outreach activities, methods for publicizing outreach and involvement opportunities, and a timeline showing synchronization of activities with the planning process. Part of the engagement plan will be identifying stakeholders in the community and building out a targeted stakeholder 104
A-2
engagement strategy. The Plan will also incorporate an assessment and mapping of "hard to reach" populations within Eastvale to identify specialized outreach needs.

In addition to an engagement plan, Kearns & West will identify and establish a Community Advisory Committee for the Civic Core engagement process. This committee will provide insight, feedback, and recommendations on the engagement process and for the development of the new Civic Core.

Along with developing a visual identity, the team will work with the City to identify messaging to communicate what is different about this process than others. The design team will also prepare a naming package that prepares multiple naming options for the civic center and commercial core. These naming options will be further refined through engagement activities in which community members and stakeholders will be able to provide comments and feedback on the naming options.

The project team will then work with City staff to identify the preferred naming options that can be presented to City Council and other committees. 105

City of Eastvale:

Civic Core Community Engagement
Proposed Approach

Developed for the City of Eastvale
by Kearns & West
Monday, January 23, 2023

1 Austin TX Charleston SC Davis CA Denver CO Los Angeles CA Portland OR Riverside CA Sacramento CA San Diego CA San Francisco CA San Juan Capistrano CA Seattle WA Washington DC

PROPOSED APPROACH
Public engagement is at the heart of any planning process, where those who will directly experience the benefits and potential impacts have a role in the planning process. The development of a new downtown and civic core offers community members and stakeholders the opportunity to shape the future of the City while also honoring the history of Eastvale. As the second youngest City in the state, Eastvale has grown from its agricultural roots to a thriving and desirable place to live. In the past 12 years, Eastvale has become home to 70,000+ people, new restaurants and retail, and is now part of the newly established assembly district 63. The young City's character is not only reflected in its development but also in its residents and their vision for what the City can be. This vision and energy are what the consultant team hopes to capture and channel into the development of a new downtown.

Kearns & West recognizes that the dynamic potential of creating a civic and public space to serve as a newly developed downtown. This project's complexity creates the opportunity for the community and stakeholders to help define, create, and shape what can be expected to be a historic community project.

With any significant project – especially when mixing commercial and housing development - there is the potential for differing perspectives and interests. Kearns & West brings experience facilitating complex projects and creating processes that engage people from diverse backgrounds and opinions to help shape a process.

Our team recognizes that good community outreach meets people where they are and provides flexibility in both timing and the avenues through which input is gathered, in addition to being based directly on the needs of the Eastvale community. It is our job to make the outreach as accessible and relevant as possible and encourage participation from all community members, including those who do not traditionally participate in public processes.

A prototypical process for a project like the Eastvale Civic Core could be conducted over four engagement phases: Planning, Visioning, Alternatives, and Implementation. Through these four phases, the project could be built around community engagement milestones in which community members can participate in meaningful, interactive, and responsive activities. Highlights of the approach are conducting listening session sessions with key stakeholders and establishing a community advisory committee to support engagement efforts throughout the project. Another important component is a community engagement and outreach strategy plan to Establish overall strategy and guide specific implementation activities. It would likely include workshops, and digital engagement strategies and activities. This example approach is intended to meet the City's engagement and outreach goals of engaging community members and stakeholders in a historic planning process for the Eastvale.

PROPOSED SCOPE
Phase 1: Planning
The initial phase of the project is the planning phase. During this phase, the Kearns & West team will work with the City of Eastvale staff to develop a city specific community engagement plan, an advisory committee, identify stakeholders to develop a community engagement plan, and build out a social media communications and branding strategy.

Kickoff Meeting, Site Tour, and Regular Team Meetings
To begin the process, the Kearns & West team will attend the kickoff meeting and periodic team meetings as needed for planning purposes. As a first step, the Kearns & West team will lead a kickoff meeting with City staff to review and confirm the project scope and schedule, identify stakeholder groups, and outline project priorities. The kickoff meeting will also include a tour of the site.

At the project kickoff meeting, Kearns & West will conduct an outreach assessment, which will involve a discussion of the benefits and drawbacks of various outreach strategies and digital tools, along with a staff and steering committee discussion of past community engagement efforts, successes, and lessons learned.

The assessment will also address any communication needs that are unique to Eastvale. Based on the input received, Kearns & West will develop the Community Engagement Plan.

Following the kickoff meeting, Kearns & West will also hold bi-weekly team meetings with the City. These can be in person or virtual as determined by the City and project team.

Deliverables:
• Develop agenda and attend Kickoff Meeting
• Provide summary of the Kickoff Meeting
• Outreach assessment facilitation
• Attend tri-weekly project team meetings (24) & preparation of meeting agendas Kearns & West Scope:
• Attendance at kickoff meeting and site tour
• Outreach assessment facilitation
• Attend Tri-weekly project team meetings
• Conduct monthly updates to management tool
Community Engagement Plan
Following the project kickoff meeting, the team will prepare a Community Engagement Plan (Plan) to serve as the guide to the public engagement process. The Plan will include the objectives, issue assessment, descriptions of outreach activities, methods for publicizing outreach and involvement opportunities, and a timeline showing synchronization of activities with the planning process. Part of the engagement plan will be identifying stakeholders in the community and building out a targeted stakeholder engagement strategy. The Plan will also incorporate an assessment and mapping of "hard to reach" populations within Eastvale to identify specialized outreach needs.

In addition to an engagement plan, Kearns & West will identify and establish a Community Advisory Committee for the Civic Core engagement process. This committee will provide insight, feedback, and recommendations on the engagement process and for the development of the new Civic Core.

Along with developing a visual identity, the team will work with the City to identify messaging to communicate what is different about this process than others. The design team will also prepare a naming package that prepares multiple naming options for the civic center and commercial core. These naming options will be further refined through engagement activities in which community members and stakeholders will be able to provide comments and feedback on the naming options. The project team will then work with City staff to identify the preferred naming options that can be presented to City Council and other committees.

Eastvale 2040 General Plan Progress Update
Prepared By:

Gustavo N. Gonzalez, Planning Manager
Recommended Action(s)
Staff recommends that the City Council receive and file an update on the Eastvale 2040 General Plan.

Summary
On February 12, 2020, the city kicked-off the Eastvale 2040 General Plan update with the goal of crea+ng Eastvale's first community-driven General Plan. A.er gathering significant community input, including forma+on of small working groups called “advisory circles”, holding workshops with the Planning Commission and City Council on the preferred land use plan, and hos+ng a community- wide open house and Environmental Impact Report (EIR) scoping mee+ng in August 2022, staff kicked off the dra.ing of the General Plan document and
dra. EIR. Staff has made significant
progress on this phase of the project and would like to share an update.

Background
The General Plan is an implementa+on tool and represents the needs of the City moving forward. To be successful, the General Plan must capture the community’s values. Eastvale’s first General Plan was adopted by the City Council on June 13, 2012. Since its adop+on, the City has changed and evolved. Now that the City has passed its 10th year of service, and it is more financially stable with a popula+on of nearly 75,000 residents, the +me has come to reexamine and update the community's long-term vision and values to ensure that they are in alignment with our residents, businesses, Strategic Plan, new State laws and rapidly changing economic needs in the region.

On February 12, 2020, the city kicked-off the Eastvale 2040 General Plan update with the goal of 12363 Limonite Avenue | Suite 910 | Eastvale, CA 91752 951.361.0900 |
eastvaleca.gov
125
incorporating the following core values into each element:

Crafting a Community Vision and Guiding Policies
Creating a “Blueprint” that integrates Land Use, Circulation, Open Space and Housing Establishing Environmental/Quality of Life health and safety thresholds for Noise, Safety, Conservation and Air Quality
Implementa+on, Financing and Work Plan for Economic Development, Investment Opportuni+es, Capital Improvement, New Development, Hazardous, Strategic and Specific Plans in conjunction with the Development Code

Staff conducted public outreach ac+vi+es beginning in February 2020. Below is a summary of public participation opportunities:

Project website that serves as the information portal to the Eastvale 2040 project Several informational videos explaining the General Plan update process Youth ac+vi+es to receive input from our younger residents Several workshops with the Planning Commission and City Council
Stakeholder Interviews with 18 "Community Champions"
"Clear Vision Speaker Series" comprised of recorded presenta+ons and discussions with six respected experts covering planning topics such as mobility, community design, diversity and inclusion, housing, economic development, and creative placemaking visioning workshop Explore Eastvale! walk audit that allowed residents to provide input on mobility on our streets

In addi+on to the outreach opportuni+es above, in May 2022 staff launched another outreach effort to reengage with residents, community stakeholders, the Planning Commission and City Council, with a focus on arriving on a preferred land use plan, which is the first step to launching the Dra.

Environmental Impact Report (DEIR). To work through some of the more technical aspects of the project, small working groups called “advisory circles” were formed and comprised of community members including residents, business owners, local advocates, and community champions. The advisory circle mee+ngs were limited to groups of 4-8 stakeholders and worked to bring recommenda+ons to the Planning Commission and City Council related to land use, circula+on, the Chandler area, and open space.

In June 2022, the City Council provided staff with direc+on on the preferred land use plan and, in August 2022, staff hosted a large community open house and EIR scoping mee+ng to present the preferred land use plan. Subsequently, staff began work on the dra. General Plan document and EIR.

To date, staff has worked with the consul+ng team to evaluate the exis+ng goals and policies in the General Plan and is refining them to align with the input received during the public outreach phase.

The consul+ng team has dra.ed several elements of the General Plan and are under review by staff.

The dra. General Plan document is an+cipated to be available for public review in March 2023.

While the general plan is under review, the consul+ng team will be finalizing the dra. EIR. The dra.

EIR is an+cipated to be ready for public review by early summer 2023, with considera+on of the entire project by late summer.

Environmental
No final ac+on on a project subject to review under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) is proposed at this +me. A Program Environmental Impact Report (PEIR) will be prepared for the Eastvale 2040 General Plan Update in accordance with CEQA to be considered by the City Council at a future hearing for this project.

Strategic Plan Action - Priority Level: 2
| Target #: 2
| Goal #: 7
Develop branding and identity for Eastvale.

Fiscal Impact
The General Plan is a policy document that does not have a direct fiscal impact. Fiscal impacts associated with any future development are evaluated as a part of the en+tlement process prior to considera+on by the Planning Commission and/or the City Council. Costs related to consultant services for the General Plan were included in the Capital Improvement Plan and allocated during the fiscal year 2023-24 budget process.

Prior City Council/Commission Action
On June 13, 2012, the City Council adopted the exis+ng General Plan. On June 22, 2022, the City Council provided staff with direction on the preferred land use plan.
