Le'er of Support for Jurupa Community Services District's Etiwanda Pipeline Phase 1 Project
Prepared By:

Stephanie Vasquez, Assistant to the City Manager
Recommended Action(s)
Staff recommends that the City Council approve a Le
er of Support for Jurupa Community Service's
District's E$wanda Pipeline Phase 1 Project - 2024 Drought Response Program: Drought Resiliency Projects NOFO No. R24AS00007
Summary
Jurupa Community Services District (JCSD) provides water and sewer services to residents and businesses in the City of Eastvale and Jurupa Valley. The City of Eastvale con$nues to collaborate with JCSD to provide services to our community. JCSD has requested support from the City of Eastvale for a grant applica$on they are pursuing. The grant would help with funding for the Ewanda Pipeline Project Phase 1
through the USBR’s Drought Resiliency WaterSMART grant
program.

Background
The E$wanda Pipeline Phase 1 Project is of importance to the Chino Basin and the en$re Santa Ana Watershed region, and it will significantly enhance water supply resilience, drought response capabilities, and overall quality of life.

The primary goal of the Project is to construct a pipeline that will connect Jurupa Community Services District's (JCSD) reservoirs in the northern por$on of its service area with the domes$c water system of the Cucamonga Valley Water District (CVWD). This pipeline will establish a cri$cal 12363 Limonite Avenue | Suite 910 | Eastvale, CA 91752 951.361.0900 |
eastvaleca.gov
291
link between the two agencies, facilita$ng the sharing of water resources. Specifically, it will serve as the backbone for conveying groundwater from the upper por$on of the Chino Basin, which is an adjudicated groundwater basin managed by the Chino Basin Watermaster, to JCSD in the southern end of the Chino Basin. The Project has an es$mated design capacity of 10,491 acre-feet per year.

This connec$on is par$cularly vital, as JCSD has been grappling with water quality issues resul$ng from groundwater extraction in a section of their existing well field within the Chino Basin.

The significance of this Project goes beyond addressing water quality concerns. It will strengthen regional water supply reliability, ensuring that our communi$es are be er equipped to confront the
challenges posed by drought, wildfires, earthquakes, and other catastrophic events within the Santa Ana Watershed region. By enhancing the interconnec$on between our water systems, the Project will bolster our collective capacity to respond effectively to these challenges.

Sustained financial support from local, state, and federal funding agencies is pivotal to the successful comple$on of the Project. Such support will benefit JCSD and its customers, including all the City’s residents, by enhancing water supply reliability and quality throughout our region.

Subject: Letter of Support for the Etiwanda Pipeline Phase 1 Project 2024 Drought Response Program: Drought Resiliency Projects NOFO No. R24AS00007

To Whom it May Concern,

I am writing on behalf of the C ity of Eastvale (City) to offer our support for t he Jurupa Community Services District's (JCSD) Etiwanda Intervalley Water Transmission Pipeline Phase 1A Project (Project). We firmly believe that this project is of paramount importance to the Chino Basin and the entire Santa Ana Watershed region, and it will significantly enhance water supply resilience, drought response capabilities, and overall quality of life.

The primary goal of the Project is to construct a pipeline that will connect JCSD's reservoirs in the northern portion of its service area with the domestic water system of the Cucamonga Valley Water District (CVWD). This pipeline will establish a critical link between the two agencies, facilitating the sharing of water resources. Specifically, it will serve as the backbone for conveying groundwater from the upper portion of the Chino Basin, which is an adjudicated groundwater basin managed by the Chino Basin Watermaster, to JCSD in the southern end of the Chino Basin. The Project has an estimated design capacity of 10,491 acre-feet per year. This connection is particularly vital, as JCSD has been grappling with water quality issues resulting from groundwater extraction in a section of their existing well field within the Chino Basin.

The significance of this Project goes beyond addressing water q uality concerns. It will strengthen regional water supply reliability, ensuring that our communities are better equipped to confront the challenges posed by drought, wildfires, earthquakes, and other catastrophic events within the Santa Ana Watershed region. By enhancing the interconnection between our water systems, the Project will bolster our collective capacity to respond effectively to these challenges.

Sustained financial support from local, state, and federal funding agencies is pivotal to the successful completion of the Project. Such support will benefit JCSD and its customers, including all the City’s residents, by enhancing water supply reliability and quality throughout our region.

293

The City stands firmly behind the Project, and we urge the Department of Interior and the Bureau of Reclamation to consider the Project favorably and provide the necessary support to ensure its successful implementation. Your assistance in advancing this critical initiative will be instrumental in safeguarding the water supply and resilience of our community.

Sincerely,

Todd Rigby
Mayor

Agenda Item No. 13.1
October 11, 2023
Shared Civic Center and Retail Public Parking Structure and Civic Center Value Engineering
Prepared By:

Jimmy Chung, Public Works Director/City Engineer
Recommended Action(s)
Staff recommends that the City Council:
1 .

Receive update on City Hall atrium cooling analysis and Civic Center public parking needs; and 2 .

Provide direc'on to staff regarding deferring construc'on of the Shared Civic Center and Retail Parking Structure; and
3 .

Provide direction to staff regarding Civic Center Design Value Engineering Items.

Summary
Staff seeks direc'on on two topics, the shared Civic Center and retail parking structure, and value engineering for the overall Civic Center project. Staff recommends deferring the shared public parking structure un'l a master developer is procured for the retail development. Addi'onally, staff recommends accep'ng several value engineering items in order to bring the es'mated project cost in line with the approved $191.0 million budget.

Background
Parking Structure
At the September 13, 2023 mee'ng under item 13.2, City Council discussed parking op'ons at the Civic Center, specifically the loca'on of secured police parking and the number of spaces included within the city's parking structure. The ini'al site plan provided approximately 1,015 parking spaces throughout the en're Phase 1 (City Hall, Police Sta'on, Library, Civic Park, and Civic Plaza) and Phase 2 (Retail and Commercial) combined. A preliminary parking study indicated the Civic Center 12363 Limonite Avenue | Suite 910 | Eastvale, CA 91752 951.361.0900 |
eastvaleca.gov
295
and preliminary retail design requires more than 1,400 spaces. Throughout the design of the project, the 'meliness and security of police parking has been a priority and led to the priori'za'on of the shared parking structure. The City Council voted on staff's recommenda'on to underground police parking below the police sta'on and build a standalone public parking structure with approximately 300 spaces; and defer the addi'onal spaces to make up the approximately 400 deficient spaces to a later phase to be constructed in coordination with a master developer.

However, a@er City Council's approval of underground police parking, an op'on to delay the final design and construc'on of the parking structure became a viable op'on. While coordina'ng the next steps of the project with Gensler, the Architect of Record, and Griffin Structures, Owner's Rep/Construc'on Manager, City staff concluded that securing an op'mal parking structure design that meets the city's and developer's needs requires full collabora'on between the city and developer. Construc'ng the parking structure now only secures the city's current interests and may not fully meet the interests and requirements of a downtown retail development. Furthermore, City construc'on of a parking structure to meet the parking needs of future retail development has poten'al prevailing wage implica'ons on the future retail development. City staff and consultants working on the project do not have adequate retail development knowledge and insight to ensure the desires of a yet unknown private developer are met.

Defer Public Parking Structure with Retail (Building 7) Defer Building 7 (shared parking structure) to later phase and build in collabora'on with master developer
$22,000,000* immediate budget savings, however this cost to the city will likely be deferred to master developer phase to incen
ve develop in accordance with the vision
for downtown
Additional approximate $1.7 million debt service savings Approximate $750k to $1.5 million cost to construct temporary surface lots Allows master developer to provide input on the parking needs and structure

Loca'on of temporary surface lots is proposed to be along "B" Street that intersects with Limonite Ave and Cloverdale Marketplace, but it will be assessed more carefully.

Value Engineering
The design of the Civic Center currently is projected to exceed the city's project budget. As a result, the city's architect, Gensler, prepared a list of value engineering op'ons in order to reduce construc'on costs and keep the total project within the City Council approved budget of $191 million. Several of the items impact the vision and look of the buildings, par'cularly changing the City Hall atrium roof from glass to solid, elimina'ng the second story bridge from the City Hall to the Library, and various op'ons for the Building 7 parking structure. Staff seeks City Council direc'on on the acceptance of these value engineering items.

Value Engineering Options, City Hall:

Eliminate glass atrium roof at City Hall and replace with solid roof $1,309,570 savings*
Solid roof also provides heating and cooling mitigation Eliminate pedestrian bridge connecting second floor of City Hall to Library roof $602,800 savings*
12363 Limonite Avenue | Suite 910 | Eastvale, CA 91752

296

Value Engineering Options, Building 7 Parking (if desired, these decisions can also be deferred):

Replace building 7 (parking structure) steel structure with concrete structure $530,925 savings*
Steel construc
on allows for more versa
le tenant improvements for retail
configuration, however retail is still possible with a concrete structure Eliminate retail at building 7 (parking structure)
$1,546,531 savings*
Standalone parking structure

*Figures based upon August 14, 2023 cost es'mate, does not include escala'on factors related to market and construction costs.

Environmental
The Civic Center and retail project are considered a Project as defined by the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA); however the ac'on to reduce costs as recommended has no additional environmental
impacts.

Strategic Plan Action - Priority Level: 1
| Target #: E
| Goal #: A
Construc'on of the Civic Center (City Hall, Library, Police Sta'on and Fire Sta'on) was iden'fied as a Priority Level 1 infrastructure goal on the 2023 updated Strategic Plan.

Fiscal Impact
City Council has approved a $191.0 million project budget and staff's recommenda'ons on parking structure deferral and value engineering are required to stay within the project budget. Direc'on to staff on this item will impact the total project budget; however, decisions made will not contractually oblige the city to any financial commitments. Design work will con'nue based on City Council direction, and construction bids will be approved by the City Council at a future date.

Prior City Council/Commission Action
The City Council Council approved a contract with Griffin Structures for construc'on management services in November of 2021. On October 12, 2022, the City Council approved a contract with Gensler for architectural services and amended the contract with Griffin Structures. The civic center loca'on was approved as a part of the en'tlement for the Leal Master Plan Amendment (Downtown Eastvale) at the May 11, 2022 City Council mee'ng. On September 13, 2023 City Council provided direc'on on undergrounding police parking and deferring 600 spaces to a second parking structure.

On September 29, 2023 the Business and Development Ad Hoc discussed the items within this report and recommended the full City Council provide direction to staff.

Agenda Item No. 13.2
October 11, 2023
Naming of Downtown Eastvale Backbone Streets
Prepared By:

Gustavo N. Gonzalez, Community Development Director
Recommended Action(s)
Staff recommends that the City Council receive a presenta on on naming the Downtown Eastvale
backbone streets and provide input on preferred names.

Summary
Staff seeks input from the City Council on the naming of the "backbone streets" of the Leal Master Plan, currently referred to as "A", "B", and "C" Streets. To help guide the discussion on poten al
names, staff researched the following general topics: prominent figures in Eastvale's history; the agricultural history of Eastvale; the natural environment of Eastvale; and conven onal or tradi
onal
street names. Staff offers several poten
al street naming op
ons for the City Council's
consideration.

Background
On May 11, 2022, the City Council approved an amendment to the Leal Master Plan and entered into a Development Agreement (DA) with The New Home Company (TNHC) to facilitate the development of up to 2,500 residen
al units, 14 acres of parks and open space, 595,000 square feet of commercial development, and the City’s future civic center including a city hall, library and innova
on center, police sta
on, public park, civic plaza, and fire sta
on on approximately 158.6
acres of a former dairy and agricultural site known as the “Leal Property”. The terms of the DA gave the City exclusive rights for 20 years to nego
ate an op
on agreement on approximately 16 acres of
land at the corner of Limonite and Hamner Avenues, which will encompass the downtown core of the project.
12363 Limonite Avenue | Suite 910 | Eastvale, CA 91752
951.361.0900 |
eastvaleca.gov
298
On August 26, 2022, TNHC formerly closed escrow on Phase I of the 158-acre project, which includes up to 758 residen
al units to be constructed by TNHC. Phase I also includes the approximately 16- acre op
on downtown core parcels where the City’s future civic center will be located and up to 495,000 square feet of commercial space. On September 14, 2023, the Business and Development Success Ad-Hoc CommiEee recommended that staff bring a discussion item to the City Council on the naming of the backbone
streets.

Street Naming Process

The process of naming streets is primarily a func
on of the permiFng processing for subdivisions
where new streets are proposed. The project applicant provides recommended street names prior to the issuance of building permits. City staff reviews the recommended names to avoid duplicates and/or confusion with other streets in the city.

The Riverside County Sheriff's Office and Fire
Department also review the recommended names and
provide comments as it
relates to public
safety
. Approved names are then forwarded to the U.S. Post Office and the County of Riverside along with the approved tenta
ve tract map for addressing of new residen
al units and taxa
on
purposes.

In most cases, the selec
on of street names is leL to the project applicant. Staff only provides input as described above. However, given the city's partnership with TNHC on this project through the DA and the significance of the civic center and downtown commercial core, staff seeks input from the City Council on the naming of the "backbone streets", currently referred to as "A", "B", and "C" Streets (
Attachment 1
).

It should be noted that TNHC does not have a preference for "B" and "C" Streets, but has requested that "A" Street be named "
Eastwalk Parkway
" as this street will mainly serve the residen
al tracts
being developed by TNHC. "B" Street will ul
mately provide the address street name for the library
and innova
on center, and "C" Street will provide the address street name for city hall and the police station.

Discussion of Potential Names

To help guide the discussion on potential names, staff researched the following general topics:

prominent figures in Eastvale's history;
the agricultural history of Eastvale;
the natural environment of Eastvale; and
conventional or traditional street names

Fuller Ranch
"A Brief History of Eastvale" by Loren P. Meissner and Kim Jarrell Johnson provides insights to several
prominent figures that established ranches in the Eastvale area long before the city's incorpora
on. Perhaps the most successful and longest-serving ranch in the area was Fuller Ranch, which occupied most of the southern end of present-day Eastvale from Schleisman Road south to the river, between Hellman Avenue and Hamner Avenue (
A3achment 2
). Several family members
operated the ranch at various
mes. The Fuller family dedicated land for the first Eastvale schoolhouse in 1896. Fuller family members served on the Eastvale School District and Grace Fuller was hired as the first school teacher at the elementary school. One poten al naming op
on is 12363 Limonite Avenue | Suite 910 | Eastvale, CA 91752 951.361.0900 |
eastvaleca.gov
299
"
Fuller Drive
"
in recogni
on of Fuller family and their contribu
ons to the area. It should be noted
that there is an exis
ng street call "
Fuller Ranch Road
" that connects to Dairyland Park on the
southwest part of the city.

Premier Ranch
Second in influence only to Fuller Ranch during the first part of the twen eth century was Premier
Ranch, which once occupied the square mile of land that has become the heart of Eastvale, bordered by Limonite Avenue, Hamner Avenue, Schleisman Road, and Sumner Avenue ( Attachment
2 ). Premier Ranch would later come under the ownership of the Harada family. William Eldridge, who purchased the ranch in 1911 and the person most associated with it, was influen al in various
agricultural interest groups of the
me. During the Great Depression, when the dairy industry collapsed, he organized the Independent Milk Producers Associa on and became its president. He
was successful in geFng milk control legisla
on passed to help stabilize the industry. Eastvale exists today as a collec
on of quality, cohesive neighborhoods because developers were able to purchase several acres of former dairy property from one owner and build large planned residen
al
subdivisions with nearby parks. Without the dairy industry and the control of acres of land by several dairy owners, Eastvale may have developed very differently. One poten al naming op
on is
"
Premier Place
"
in recognition of Premier Ranch.

Vale Ranch
One sugges
on for the origins of the city's name
by the authors of "A Brief History of Eastvale" is in
the late 1800s Milton Vale had a ranch near Archibald Avenue and Limonite Avenue referred to as Vale Ranch. Most of the territory of the new Eastvale School District was located East
of the
Vale
Ranch, hence the name
East Vale
. One poten
al naming op
on is "
Vale Street
" in homage to the
city's namesake.

Bootsma Calf Ranch
Ike Bootsma, former Eastvale mayor and city council member, owned and operated a calf ranch on Schleisman Road at the intersec
on with the Cucamonga Creek from the 1970s un
l the early
2000s. At its peak, the calf ranch held 8,500 calves at any one me and employed 32 people. A civic
leader and resident of the area for more than 46 years, Ike Bootsma passed away in 2021. Poten al
naming options are "
Ike Way
" and "
Bootsma
Avenue
" in honor of Ike.

Agricultural History
In addi
on to specific prominent figures, poten
al street naming op
ons could honor the areas
agriculture heritage with names of specific types of crops that grew in Eastvale's fer le soil. These
include "
Olive
", "
Vine
", "
Walnut
", and "
Peach
". Other naming op
ons could be derived from the
area's dairy history such as "
Bovine Boulevard
" or
"
Holstein Road
" in reference to the name for the
black and white cows that are the most popular breed of dairy caEle. Another op on could be
"
Runderen Road
",
which is the Dutch word for caEle, and a nod to the former Dutch dairy owners in the area.

Natural Features
Other street naming op
ons could be derived from the areas natural features such as the San Gabriel Mountains, Santa Ana River, and Cucamonga Creek. Poten al street names include
"
Mountain View Drive
", "
San Antonio Street", "Cucamonga Creek Road",
or "
Rivier Way",
the
Dutch word for river.
12363 Limonite Avenue | Suite 910 | Eastvale, CA 91752
951.361.0900 |
eastvaleca.gov
300

Conventional Names
Many ci
es adopt conven
onal names for the streets surrounding their civic centers and downtowns. These include "
Civic Center Drive
", "
Main Street
", "
Park Avenue
", and "
Market Street
".

Other op
ons include
"City Center Drive" "Community Drive",
or "
Downtown Eastvale Drive
".

Finally, a common street name approach could be taken such as " First Street
" and "
Second Street
".

Environmental
The subject discussion will not result in a direct or reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment and is not a “project,” as defined in Sec on 15378 of the California
Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines; therefore, no further environmental review is required.

Strategic Plan Action - Priority Level: 1
| Target #: B
| Goal #: C
Create “Destination Eastvale”.

Fiscal Impact
