COUNCIL GOALS:
· Provide street sweeping services.
· Ensure the City’s Household Hazardous Waste facility is appropriately staffed.

DISCUSSION:

The City of Fontana (“City”) has an exclusive franchise agreement with Burrtec Waste Industries, Inc. (“Burrtec”) to provide municipal solid waste collection services within the City. The current Integrated Solid Waste Agreement (“Agreement”) between the City of Fontana and Burrtec Waste Industries, Inc. was entered into on January 1, 1997, and amended on December 28, 2022, to include new organic waste collection services required by state law.

The City and Burrtec have negotiated street sweeping services to be provided by Burrtec at select locations throughout the City.

The proposed Second Amendment would update the Agreement to:
· Require Burrtec to provide routine street sweeping services at specified streets/surfaces, designated curbed arterial (major/minor), collector, commercial, residential, industrial, parking lots, and sidewalks and in accordance with the Second Amendment and newly added Exhibits B-D.
· Require Burrtec to staff qualified personnel to operate and maintain the City’s Household Hazardous Waste (HHW) facility located at 16454 Orange Way in accordance with the newly added Exhibit E.
· Provide additional payment to Burrtec in exchange for the additional services. · Allow the City to place residential solid waste service charges on the property tax roll; Burrtec will deduct the cost savings it realizes from switching from direct billing of residential customers to placement of the charges on the tax roll, from the monthly street sweeping service charges City pays to Burrtec.
· Revises the cap for annual inflationary adjustments from 4% to 6%, based on the annual City of Fontana Page 1 of 2 Printed on 2/21/2024

Street sweeping services shall be billed to the City on a monthly basis and Contractor shall pay disposal costs. Contractor shall provide street sweeping services effective March 18, 2024 at the rate of $35,601.10 for the balance of March 2024 and $71,202.21 per month for the period of April 1, 2024 through June 30, 2024.

Effective July 1, 2024, the rate shall be increased to $28.65 per curb mile.

For each year the City places solid waste charges on the property tax roll, Contractor shall first deduct the amount of savings it realizes from the City placing solid waste charges on the property tax roll from the monthly street sweeping charges. Contractor shall furnish proof of savings realized to the City (including, but not limited to, printing, postage, administrative and collection costs). For the purposes of determining Contractor’s costs, the 2023 calendar year shall serve as the baseline year to measure Contractor’s costs, with the costs for each subsequent calendar year adjusted by CPI for all items. Prior to May of each year, City and Contractor shall meet and agree on how the savings will be determined over the course of the year following the placement of solid waste charges on the tax roll, and how to offset savings on a monthly basis against street sweeping charges. After Contractor first deducts the amount of savings it realizes from 26 -4-

In addition, there will be 10% added to the gross rate for Contractor’s administrative services.  Normal working hours (Monday – Friday from 6 a.m. to 6 p.m.) - $155/hour, adjusted annually by CPI.
 After regular business hours (“after-hours”), weekends, or holidays - $295/hour, adjusted annually by CPI.

For clarity, the above rates do not apply to street sweeping services that are regularly performed after-hours or to work that is performed on a weekend date due to a holiday falling on a weekday.
5) Changes in Services. The City may elect to increase or decrease the frequency or number of miles or parking stalls of street sweeping services. This includes the City’s right to not use any, or to terminate, street sweeping services. All increases or decreases shall be submitted to the Contractor in writing by the City (letter may be submitted by email) and shall become effective at the beginning of the following month. Changes in Services may result in cost adjustments. 6) Hours of Operations. Sweeping operations shall be conducted between the hours of 7:00 a.m. and 5:30 p.m. in residential and commercial areas and between 12:00 a.m. -6:00 a.m. in industrial areas.

 The sweepers’ path of travel superimposed on a map.
 Generating an email alert whenever sweeper speeds exceed 6 mph or sweepers do not move for periods longer than one hour.  Generating daily reports of sweeper activity.
 Maintaining the data for a period of 90 days, after which data will be downloaded to the City for storage.
 GPS system must be up and running within 30 days of Effective Date.
9) Equipment Safety Requirements. All equipment must be provided in accordance with State Laws, including hazard lights visible from the rear that operate independently of the brake lights. Sweeper equipment shall have additional hazard lighting (i.e., strobe lights or beacon) which adequately warns motor vehicle drivers in the vicinity of the sweeper. 10) Minimum Sweeping Width Required. Sweeper equipment must be capable of sweeping a minimum of eight feet (8’) wide as measured with all brooms in the sweeping position. Equipment without the ability to perform this function is unacceptable.

SUBJECT:

Approve Amendment No. 1 to Task Order with Albert Webb and Associates for Inspection Services for the Sierra Avenue Widening Project between Foothill Boulevard and Baseline Avenue RECOMMENDATION:

1. Approve and authorize the City Manager to execute Amendment No.1 to Task Order with Albert Webb and Associates for Inspection Services for the Sierra Avenue Widening Project between Foothill Boulevard and Baseline Avenue (SQ-87-DE-19-30) in the amount of $121,800.00 for a total contract amount of $425,800.00.

2. Approve and authorize the City Manager to execute future individual Task Order Amendments not exceeding $100,000.00 for the Sierra Avenue Widening Project between Foothill Boulevard and Baseline Avenue.

COUNCIL GOALS:
· To invest in the City’s infrastructure (streets, sewers, parks, etc.) by maintaining and improving the city's existing infrastructure.
· To invest in the City’s infrastructure (streets, sewers, parks, etc.) by focusing on relief of traffic congestion.
· To invest in the City’s infrastructure (streets, sewers, parks, etc.) by utilizing Measure-I Funds wisely.

DISCUSSION:

The City of Fontana’s approved Capital Improvement Program Budget includes the Sierra Avenue from Foothill Boulevard to Baseline Avenue Street Improvement Project (“Project”). The proposed improvements include widening Sierra Avenue to six (6) lanes with curb, gutter, sidewalks, raised landscaped median, decorative streetlights, and a new traffic signal at Sierra Avenue and Reed Street intersection. The construction began in July 2022 and is expected to be substantially completed in April 2024.

On June 28, 2022, the City Council approved a Task Order for Albert Webb and Associates to provide inspection services for the Project. This amendment to the Task Order is necessary as the construction has experienced unexpected delays due to utility coordination and weather. This Amendment accounts for all anticipated inspection services until construction completion barring any unforeseen construction conditions.

RE: Construction Inspection Amendment Request
Sierra Avenue Widening Project
Dear Mr. Kim:

Webb has exhausted our original proposal of 2,000 hours of full-time inspection which covered the project through October 2023. Per the City’s email dated January 18, 2024, we understand that this project is now anticipated to be substantially complete by the end of February and only part time effort will be required thereafter.

We anticipate an additional 840 inspection hours thru project completion.

Construction Inspector 840 hours @ $145/hour = $121,800.00 Total not to be exceeded without prior authorization from the City of Fontana = $121,800
If you require any additional information or have any questions, please feel free to contact our office.

Sincerely,

· To invest in the City’s infrastructure (streets, sewers, parks, etc.) by providing for the development of new infrastructure.

DISCUSSION:

The purpose of the City’s Parks, Recreation & Trails Master Plan is to provide the framework for the orderly development of new facilities, and improvements to existing facilities. This 2023 Master Plan update is the product of an analysis of existing conditions, a review of Chapter 7 of the City’s current General Plan, execution of a resident survey conducted in April 2019, and discussions with City officials and staff.

The City’s Parks, Recreation & Trails Master Plan was last updated in 2008. Accomplishments highlighted by this new 2023 Master Plan update include the addition of seventeen (17) new parks totaling forty-four (44) acres throughout the city, with Central City Park and South Fontana Park being two of the most notable additions since 2008.

This new 2023 Master Plan update includes recommendations for over $23 million dollars of citywide park improvements, along with recreational facility improvements totaling $48 million dollars.

The details of these improvements were shared with the City Council during a workshop presentation on September 26, 2023, followed by a presentation to the Parks, Community and Human Services Commission on October 26, 2023.

At their last regular meeting on January 25, 2024, the Parks, Community and Human Services Commission approved the recommendation by staff to forward the 2023 Parks, Recreation & Trails Master Plan to the City Council for their final approval and adoption.

City of Fontana Parks, Recreation & Trails Master Plan: 2023 Update 1-1
Section 1: Introduction

1.1 Overview
The City of Fontana, situated at the heart of the San Bernardino Valley, has unique and beautiful parks and open space resources ranging from small neighborhood tot lots to a large regional park. During the past four decades the rapid growth to the north of the City, along the 210 Foothill Freeway corridor and to the south along the Jurupa Hills has primarily been residential. This development has occurred through the specific plan process, as a means of assuring the construction of the infrastructure required to support these new modern residential communities. Development in the traditional city core has been primarily in-fill housing, condominiums, and apartments on smaller scale parcels.

This study reviews the park and recreation facilities and programs to determine their foreseeable future needs, and examines the existing circulation and development plans to update the trails master plan.

The goal is to maintain Fontana's quality of life and environment, and provide a guide for the development of future park sites and programs.

In addition to improving the overall quality of life for residents, excellent park and recreation programs are important for the well being of a city's business community. Not only do they make the community more attractive to higher income residents (providing a stronger market base for local businesses), they can directly influence a city's ability to enhance its fiscal base by attracting commercial and industrial businesses. "Quality of Life" issues consistently rank high in the list of reasons a firm decides to locate in a particular community. Entrepreneurs often want to locate their businesses in a community where they would like to live and where they expect their employees may like to live.

Attractive parks and open space areas enhance residential property values, and create a sense of community. A city that has parks where employees can spend their lunch hour, community centers that provide a forum for seniors and youth to share experiences, and a trail system that offers not only weekend recreation opportunities, but also weekday transportation alternatives, will attract new businesses and their employees.

Recreation programs for young people provide constructive alternatives to loitering, vandalism, and even more serious crimes. By providing safe, affordable, family-oriented services and programs for all ages the City has an effective crime prevention tool and a constructive means of developing a strong sense of community.

1.2 Scope and Content
The scope of the Master Plan includes both the incorporated city land and the unincorporated Sphere of Influence (See Exhibit 1-1 for city boundaries and the unincorporated county areas). Recreation demand is based upon current and projected City population. The Master Plan will provide a framework for orderly development of new facilities and the improvements to existing facilities. 116

West Fontana Area: Residential neighborhood in the Sphere of Influence bounded by the Metrolink right-of-way and the I-10 Freeway, and by Cherry and Citrus Avenues.

Review of the Trails Master Plan
The existing Fontana Trails Master Plan was reviewed in the context of regional connections as well as the new specific plan development that has occurred. The City has many opportunities for the expansion of its trail system and pursuant to the Goals and Policies of the General Plan should pursue opportunities for connectivity and integration with the surrounding communities.

Survey of the Residents
True North Research designed and conducted two mixed method surveys in April of 2019 to identify areas of most importance to residents. The surveys focused on facilities and programming. Results indicates that Fontana residents are generally pleased with the current parks, open space, and recreational facilities inventory. The opportunities for the greatest improvement are in the areas of increased safety, adding recreational equipment, beautification, lighting, restrooms, and additional facilities.

2.3 Recommendations & Action Plan
The recommended elements for consideration are identified as follows:

1. Improvements to Existing Parks and Recreation Centers It is recommended that improvements be made to the following parks:

Almeria
Cambria Park
Catawba Park
Chaparral Park
Condor Park
Coyote Canyon Park
Fiesta Park
Fontana Park
Dr. Charles Koehler Park
Heritage Circle Park

Southridge Park and Don Day Community Center

VOH Pool Facility

2. New Park Development
There is an identified need for new park development in the City and its Sphere of Influence (county unincorporated areas). The addition of new parks would provide the needed facilities and accessibility within a reasonable service radius. The following new parks are proposed to be built (See Exhibit 3-7):
• Arboretum Specific Plan
• Downtown Linear Park on the PE Trail
• Sierra Lakes Sports Park
• Westgate Specific Plan

3. Provide Service in Under Served Areas
New parks to service existing and future populations within the existing city boundaries and Sphere of Influence are recommended for two areas (See Exhibit 3-6):
• Foothill South Area: One community park and various neighborhood parks • West Fontana Area: One community park and various neighborhood parks

4. Trails
The following improvements are recommended for the City's trail system:
• Recreation Trail Improvements
• Bicycle Lane Improvements
• Over/Underpass Improvements
• Recreation Trail Amenities
• Bicycle Lane Amenities

5. Improvements to Recreation Centers
Because these are large facilities, they will provide a variety of services which will meet the needs of the larger segments of the community. Smaller neighborhood centers which provide program specific activities/programming for teens, seniors and other age specific facilities will be defined by population demand and located accordingly. It is recommended that the following improvements be considered to the City’s Recreation Centers:

Renovate Don Day Community Center
120
City of Fontana Parks, Recreation & Trails Master Plan: 2023 Update 2-4

6. Improvements to Recreational Trails
The proposed recreation trail system primarily follows the utility and flood control corridors throughout the City of Fontana, while the Active Transportation Plan provides for a system of safe bicycle routes using the city street network. The approved Active Transportation Plan also seeks to take advantage of new development opportunities to provide a continuous trail system for recreation and transportation.

Many sections of the City have been built out; therefore, the recommendations focus on adapting the existing street system and utility corridors for bicycle travel. Where new development is occurring, the Master Plan recommends accepted design standards to ensure new streets are bicycle-friendly, and logical connections are made to the existing infrastructure. Particular attention should be made to routes to schools, parks and other recreation facilities, and commercial areas.

The Active Transportation Plan will ensure linkages to regional open space to the north and south and to adjacent cities. The trails also provide linkages within the City to key commercial, cultural, and recreational destinations.

7. City and School Districts Use Agreements
The partnering of the City and school districts in joint use/exclusive use agreements is an essential element in providing for the existing and future park and recreational needs. Joint-use and development of facilities is a tried and proven way of utilizing school and City facilities to provide for the recreational needs of the community.

It is recommended that the City:
• Continue to pursue joint-use opportunities with the school districts, especially for the use and maintenance of existing and future gymnasiums and athletic fields. • Continue working with the school districts to implement the school-park development concept and pursue joint development when beneficial to both the City and the school districts.

Specific consideration should be given to older neighborhoods and those surrounding the downtown in order to provide neighborhood park facilities. • Encourage the School District to set up an annual planning session with all organized sports group to establish an annual calendar.
• Add additional joint use and exclusive use agreements with other schools.

2.4 Implementation Plan
The recommended implementation plan involves four major categories of park and recreation improvements:

1. Expansion of existing parks and recreation centers

2. Improvements to existing City parks/joint use facilities to address facility deficiencies

3. Development of new parks in the City and its Sphere of Influence to accommodate the additional future demand for park facilities resulting from anticipated population growth 121
City of Fontana Parks, Recreation & Trails Master Plan: 2023 Update 2-5

4. Development of recreational trails and associated amenities Given the large capital investment needed to implement the recommended improvements, the proposed plan will need to be phased, in order to spread the costs over a reasonable period of time. The prioritization of improvements within the phasing program was generated after careful consideration of the following information:
• Immediate needs for new facilities within existing parks based on demand, replacement of aging equipment, citizen feedback through a survey of residents, and input from City Council, Parks, Community and Human Services Commission, and City staff. • New parks and community centers to be developed over the longer-term, should be phased based on future facility needs suggested by anticipated population growth and the geographic locations and expected timing of known residential plans in the City. 122
City of Fontana Parks, Recreation & Trails Master Plan: 2023 Update 3-1
Section 3: Update Process

3.1 Regional Context
The City of Fontana is situated between the Jurupa Hills to the south and the San Gabriel and the San Bernardino Mountains to the north. These geological formations provide the City of Fontana with an abundance of open space and wilderness recreation.

Much of the San Gabriel and San Bernardino mountains are within the contiguous jurisdictions of the Angeles and San Bernardino National Forests. Trailheads throughout the foothills and along Lytle Creek connect the City inland to the Pacific Crest Trail that eventually reaches as far as the Canadian and Mexican borders. Southwest of the City, Martin Tudor Jurupa Hills Regional Park is part of a county trail system that connects southward to the Santa Ana River.

3.2 Parks & Recreation
Review of the City General Plan
The Conservation, Open Space, Parks, and Trails Element of the General Plan (2015-2035) was reviewed. The following goals and policies related to the parks and recreation component are outlined.

Goal 1: Fontana continues to preserve sensitive natural open space in the foothills of the San Gabriel Mountains and Jurupa Hills.

Consider permanent protection for sensitive foothill lands through potential partnerships with conservation organizations or acquisition and deed restrictions.

Goal 2: Large city parks and open spaces include plantings and natural areas attractive to birds and other wildlife.

Inform the public about the natural ecological character of Fontana.

Use public open space to support wildlife habitat where appropriate.

Goal 3: Fontana has a healthy, drought-resistant urban forest.

Support tree conservation and planting that enhances shade and drought resistance.

Expand Fontana’s tree canopy.

Goal 4: The city of Fontana has a no-net-loss policy for public parkland.

Establish legal requirements for replacement, when any city-owned park land listed in the California Protected Lands database is transferred to other uses, with land of equivalent environmental, recreational, or aesthetic value.

Goal 5: All Fontana residents live within walking or biking distance of a public park, and there are sufficient public parks to serve all areas of the city. 123
City of Fontana Parks, Recreation & Trails Master Plan: 2023 Update 3-2
Establish park access by walking and biking as a criterion for locating parks and for design of active transportation networks.

Continue to use a minimum standard of 5 acres of public parkland per 1,000 persons.

Service Area Analysis
There are currently 18 community parks or groupings of parks. Community parks are defined by the General Plan to have a service area of a mile and a half.

The incorporated city has good access to the existing community parks as shown in Exhibit 3-3. The need for more community parks will be increased by the annexation of the unincorporated area of West Fontana and the future development of the unbuilt portions of North Fontana. These areas will both need a new community park.

A neighborhood park has a service area of one-half mile, a comfortable walking distance. Exhibit 3-4 illustrates the service areas of all existing and planned neighborhood parks. There are no neighborhood parks in the unincorporated area of West Fontana. The areas of the City and its Sphere of Influence not served directly by existing parks are served by the recreation facilities located at schools.

Exhibit 3-5 illustrates the service areas of all community and neighborhood parks combined.

Underserved Areas
There are currently no parks or recreational facilities located in the following areas (Exhibit 3-6):

Foothill South Area: Residential neighborhood located partially in the Sphere of Influence bounded by 134
City of Fontana Parks, Recreation & Trails Master Plan: 2023 Update 3-13
Foothill Avenue and the Metrolink right-of-way and by East and Citrus Avenues.

West Fontana Area: Residential neighborhood in the Sphere of Influence bounded by the Metrolink right-of-way and the I-10 Freeway and by Cherry and Citrus Avenues.

Pursuant to the goals in the General Plan, City park standards shall also apply to newly annexed areas of the city.

Planned Future Parks
The City will be reviewing future park and trail facilities, some through specific plans. The following master planned recreation facilities will also help satisfy the requirements for additional recreation facilities.

The locations of new park facilities are indicated on Exhibit 3-7. The new community center is shown on Exhibit 3-9.

The Arboretum Specific Plan is proposed to be located to the east of Citrus Avenue between Interstate 15 and Summit Avenue and will include 13 acres of public park.

Downtown Linear Park on the PE Trail is a proposed extension of the Civic Center park improvements such as the Library and Miller Amphitheater extending to the west to Juniper Avenue.

Sierra Lakes Sports Park is a 29.8-acre proposed park to be located in north Fontana on Sierra Lakes Parkway between Knox Avenue and Catawba Avenue.

Westgate Specific Plan is proposed to be located adjacent to Fontana Park on the western side of the City and includes 19.04 acres of parkland.

Planned Future Schools
Fontana Unified School District is currently planning one new school site as illustrated on Exhibit 3-8.

This planned future school is a 7-12 academy located at Citrus Avenue and Casa Grande Avenue. 135

3.3 Recreation Centers
Exhibit 3-9 provides a map of all the existing and proposed Community Centers in the City.

Because community centers are large facilities, they will provide a variety of services which will meet the needs of the larger segments of the community. Smaller neighborhood centers which provide program specific activities/programming for teens, seniors and other age specific facilities will be defined by population demand and located accordingly. These recreation facilities are described as follows:

Community Center: A center that has facilities large enough to offer a wide variety of programs and services such as team and individual competitive sports, year-round aquatics, computer labs, large meeting and banquet opportunities, fitness centers, etc. Generally, centers of this type service a 5 to 10-mile radius.

Neighborhood Center: A site dedicated to providing specific and targeted programming to an identified geographic service area. Programming includes concepts such as after school teen program, Tiny Tot Program and various recreation classes such as dance, martial arts and music. It should be noted that a neighborhood center is not necessarily a structure built by the City. It could be a strategically located excess school facility or a store front in a neighborhood shopping center. What the Neighborhood Center represents is a central location where program planning, sign-ups and office work for the specific neighborhood/community takes place. The programs could be implemented at any one of a multitude of other locations within the service radius.

Specialty Center: A center that is dedicated to a specific use, such as age specific (teen, senior, etc.) or program specific (fitness, nature, etc.) facilities.

3.4 Trails & Bikeways
Trail Types: The City's off-street recreational trail system combines hiking, equestrian, and bike trails.

Such trails are primarily used for recreation, but can also be used for commuting or to provide access to community facilities, such as the Metro Link Station or schools. Dedicated bike lanes, or Class 2 bikeways, consist of a dedicated lane along the pavement edge of streets and provide an alternative to the automobile throughout the City. Pedestrian access and recreation is provided through the City’s sidewalks and hiking trails. Exhibit 3-10 shows existing and proposed trails.

Bikeway Types: The State of California categorizes bicycle facilities into four classifications according to the degree of exclusiveness with which the paths are preserved for bicycle use. The designation of bikeways as Class I, II, III, and IV should not be construed as a hierarchy of bikeways. Each class of bikeway has its appropriate application. Exhibit 3-11 provides a map of the City’s bikeway system. Exhibit 3-12 provides details on each bikeway type.

Proposed Improvements to Trails
The following proposed improvements to the trail system will link and improve existing trails and provide amenities for trail users. This list includes recommendations from the Active Transportation Plan. See Table 4.1 for cost estimates.

3.5 Parks & Facilities Standards Analysis
Parks Standards Analysis
Section 66477 of the Government Code known as the “Quimby Act” requires developers to provide land and/or fees for new parks based on a standard of 3-5 acres of neighborhood and community park land per 1,000 residents. The 2015-2035 General Plan calls for a park acreage standard of 5 acres per 1,000 residents: 2 acres for community parks and 3 acres for neighborhood parks.

After a thorough analysis of the park system in its entirety and information gathered from a recent survey of the residents, a needs analysis was generated and broken into four separate categories:

1. Expansion of existing parks and recreation centers

2. Improvements to existing City Parks and joint use facilities

3. Development of new parks in the City and its Sphere of Influence

4. Development of recreational trails and open space
The Parks, Recreation, & Trails Master Plan 2023 Update needs analysis suggests the building of one (1) additional community center in the Southern third of the City; several upgrades to existing parks; and the construction of approximately 62 acres of trail.

In order to meet the needs, it is recommended that Policy 2.1 of the General Plan be amended to allocate 3 acres of developed parkland and 2 acres of open space per 1,000 population. This will provide the city with a well-balanced park system that will meet the needs of the community well into the future and keep pace with the rapidly growing diverse community. It is estimated that with the inclusion of a 25% credit for Joint/Exclusive Use facilities shared with school district for existing school property and the desire to partner with the districts to help fulfill the need for amenities in the underserved areas, along with a 25% credit for private parks within gated communities, the City will exceed the Quimby goal of 5 acres per 1,000 population adopted by City Council in the 2015-2035 General Plan.

For the purposes of this document, Open Space shall mean: Outdoor recreation areas, including areas of scenic, historic and cultural value; land currently used for/or particularly suited for parks and recreation; linkages between important recreational areas. Utility easements that can be deeded to the public in perpetuity may be included as open space subject to the review and approval of the City Council. Any property subject to the hillside ordinance may be given partial credit subject to the review and approval of the City Council. Open space shall not include areas of land that have a primary purpose for another use such as landscape and building setbacks, any property within public right of way, or public utility easements.

Facility Standards Analysis
With regard to types of facilities within parks, the 2015-2035 General Plan states that no single set of accepted standards exist, partly due to the diverse needs of different communities. The facilities from other regional cities were reviewed in January 8, 2019 to gain regional insight into park and recreation demand (Table 3.3). Among these cities were Corona, Ontario, Rancho Cucamonga and Rialto. These cities were chosen because of their geographic proximity to Fontana and demographic profile.

The following is an outline of the main factual findings from the survey. For the reader’s convenience, we have organized the findings according to the section titles used in the body of this report. Thus, to learn more about a particular finding and how it may compare to findings from prior surveys (where applicable), simply turn to the appropriate report section in Appendix B of this document.

Quality of Life
A clear majority of respondents shared favorable opinions of the quality of life in Fontana, with 13% reporting it is ‘excellent’ and 51% stating it is ‘good’. Approximately three-in-ten residents (31%) indicated that the quality of life in the City is ‘fair’, and just 7% of residents used ‘poor’ or ‘very poor’ to describe the quality of life in Fontana.

When asked what local government could do to improve the quality of life in Fontana now and in the future the most common specific responses to this question were improving streets, roads, and sidewalks and cleaning up/beautifying the City and landscaping (11% each), followed by improving public safety and reducing crime and drugs (9%), addressing homeless issues (7%), and adding/improving parks and recreation facilities (7%).

Parks and Open Space Areas
Eighty-two percent (82%) of respondents reported that at least one member of their household had visited a city park in the 12 months prior to the interview.

The frequency of visits to parks and open space areas was also high. Close to three-in-ten residents (29%) reported that their household visits a park or open space area in Fontana at least once per week, and an additional 19% stated that they visit a park two to three times per month.

Among those who could recall the names of the parks and open space areas they visit most often, Fontana Park was mentioned most frequently (23%), followed by Jack Bulik Park (14%), Veterans Park (13%), Almeria Park (12%), Jurupa Hills Regional Park (10%), and Hunter’s Ridge Park (10%). Other parks and open space areas cited by at least 7% of residents included Coyote Canyon Park (9%), Miller Park (9%), Ralph Lewis Sports Complex (9%), Bill Martin Park (8%), Southridge Park (8%), and Heritage Park (7%).

Recreation and Community Facilities
Forty-four percent (44%) of respondents reported that at least one member of their house-hold had visited a community center or recreation facility in the 12 months prior to the inter-view.

Over a quarter of visitors (26%) utilized a community center or recreation facility at least once per month and 18% visited less frequently than once per month.

Jessie Turner Community Center was the facility visited most frequently (44%), followed by Fontana Park Aquatic Center (30%), Don Day Community Center (14%), Fontana Community Senior Center (11%), Mary Vagle Nature Center (8%), and Jack Bulik Neighborhood Center (7%).

Over one-quarter of respondents indicated that they did not have an opinion or were unwilling to comment on the overall quality, safety, and/or appearance of Fontana’s community centers and recreation facilities. Among those with an opinion, however, the assessments were decidedly positive. The proportion of respondents who provided a rating of excellent or good was highest for the appearance of the facilities (58%), followed by the overall quality (55%) and safety (55%). 154
City of Fontana Parks, Recreation & Trails Master Plan: 2023 Update 3-33
Perceived Needs
When asked to rate how well the existing parks and recreation facilities in Fontana perform in meeting their household’s recreation needs, 14% provided a rating of excellent and 44% provided a rating of good. An additional 26% indicated that the parks and recreation facilities do a fair job of meeting their household’s recreation needs. Overall, just 7% used poor or very poor to describe how well their needs are being met by the existing inventory, and 10% were unsure or unwilling to state their opinion.

Sixty percent (60%) of all respondents indicated that there were improvements they would like made to parks and open space areas in Fontana.

New Trail Improvements/Amenities $20.2 million
New Park Development $56.5 million
New Bike Lanes (per the ATP) $63.4 million
Total $213.2 million
Given the large capital investment needed to implement the recommended improvements, it is clear that the proposed facility development would need to be phased, in order to spread the costs over a reasonable period of time. Prioritization of improvements was established after careful consideration of the following information:

1. New parks, to be developed over the longer-term, should be phased based on the future facility needs suggested by anticipated population growth and the geographic locations and expected timing of known residential plans in the City. 156

SUBJECT:

Approve Agreement with City of San Bernardino for Animal Shelter Services RECOMMENDATION:

1. Approve an Agreement with the City of San Bernardino and the City of Fontana to provide animal sheltering services and collective shelter improvement funding.

2. Authorize the City Manager or his assigned designee to sign the Agreement for Animal Services Between the City of San Bernardino and the City of Fontana.

3. Approve an appropriation from Fund 101 to 10140221 to allow the City to pay for shelter services and improvements per the agreement with the City of San Bernardino.

COUNCIL GOALS:
· Improve public safety by increasing operational efficiency, visibility and availability. · Operate in a businesslike manner by correcting problems immediately. · Concentrate on Inter-governmental relations by working cooperatively with neighboring jurisdictions.

DISCUSSION:

The City of Fontana Police Department’s contract for animal sheltering services with the County of Riverside will expire June 30, 2024. The current shelter will no longer provide services and an alternative facility was sought. All Fontana animals at the current shelter must be moved prior to the expiration of the current contract. Several shelters were contacted and unable to accommodate the City of Fontana’s volume of services needed. The City of San Bernardino proposed a plan for sheltering services. Due to our volume of services required, their current site will require significant infrastructure and shelter site improvements to properly serve our City.

The Agreement with the City of San Bernardino will commence on June 1, 2024, to avoid any lapse in service and to allow for the relocation of the currently housed animals. The City of Fontana’s share of the costs for the Shelter Improvements will be paid in twelve (12) quarterly payments in the amount of $72,821.00 (for a total of $873,851.00) beginning July 1, 2024. In addition, Animal Sheltering Services will be billed quarterly for services including shelter service, intake examinations/assessments, daily care for all animals, veterinary treatment, spay/neuter, adoptions, transfers, return to owners, euthanasia, and routine deceased animal disposal consistent with legal City of Fontana Page 1 of 2 Printed on 2/22/2024

requirements.

The City of San Bernardino will bill additional costs for specialty services including large animal housing (Livestock, domestic cattle and equine), emergency veterinary visits, extra deceased animal disposal requests and additional supplies as needed.

The proposed agreement is attached and defines the terms, conditions, requirements, shelter services, and improvements in detail. Staff recommends approving this agreement to utilize the City of San Bernardino for animal sheltering services for a period of three (3) years June 1, 2024 - June 30, 2027, with the option to extend for up to two additional one (1) year terms. This is a temporary solution to our long-term sheltering needs. Staff will continue to explore long-term options for animal sheltering services and the exploration of any agreement to enter such long-term contracts will be separate from this interim solution.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Funding for the animal sheltering services is included in the Fiscal Year 2024/2025 Proposed Operating Budget in the General Fund 101 (10140221) Budget. Funding for the first quarterly payment, for the shelter improvements in the amount of $72,821, is being requested with the MidYear Budget Report and future quarterly payments will be requested with the supplemental budget.

MOTION:

Approve staff recommendation.

1 AGREEMENT FOR ANIMAL SHELTER SERVICES

BETWEEN THE CITY OF SAN BERNARDINO AND THE CITY OF FONTANA This Agreement for Animal Shelter Services (“Agreement”), is made and entered into as of June 1, 2024 (“Effective Date”) by and between the City of San Bernardino, a charter city and municipal corporation (“City”), and the City of Fontana, a municipal corporation (“Shelter Partner”), collectively referred to as the “Parties” and individually as a “Party”.

RECITALS
WHEREAS, City owns, and through its Animal Services Department, operates, an animal care shelter facility located at 333 Chandler Place, San Bernardino, California (the "Shelter"); WHEREAS, recognizing the need for cost-effective and humane animal care services, Shelter Partner and the cities of Colton, Fontana, Grand Terrace, Loma Linda and Rialto (individually, a “Participant” and collectively, the "Participants") desire to contract with City for the provision of animal shelter services for the purpose of safeguarding the health and safety of the Participants’ population and health and safety of their domestic animals (“Services”); WHEREAS, Participants acknowledge the mutual benefits of pooling resources for the provision of Services at the Shelter, aiming to safeguard the health and safety of both the human population and domestic animals within their respective jurisdictions; WHEREAS, City is willing to provide these Services to the Participantssubject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement;
WHEREAS, the increased utilization of the Shelter by the Participants will necessitate certain essential improvements to accommodate their usage needs (“Improvements”) and increase the Shelter’s current operational expenses;
WHEREAS, each Participant agrees that these Improvements are beneficial and necessary to meet the social and animal welfare needs of their citizens and, therefore, have agreed to share the costs of such Improvements and added operational expenses in proportion to their usage of the Services; and
WHEREAS, City, Shelter Partner, and the remaining Participants desire to formalize this arrangement through this Agreement, setting forth terms governing the Improvements to the Shelter, additional operational expenses, and the allocation and payment of costs associated with the Services and Improvements resulting from the Participants’ usage of the Shelter.

NOW, THEREFORE, for and in consideration of the mutual covenants, conditions and advantages herein stated, the Parties hereto agree as follows:

SECTION I. OBLIGATIONS OF PARTIES
A. Recitals:

The aforementioned Recitals are true and correct and incorporated herein by this reference. 392
2 B. City Obligations:

1. Services. City shall provide the Services for animals delivered to the City’s Shelter from the jurisdictional boundaries of Shelter Partner as outlined and specified in Exhibit A, Scope of Animal Shelter Services, attached hereto and by incorporated herein by this reference.

2. Improvements. City shall be responsible for the design, preparation of all studies, analyses, and documents necessary to deliver the necessary Improvements to the Shelter to accommodate Shelter Partner and the Participants, including any CEQA environmental documentation, obtaining all permits, administration, and construction of the Shelter Improvements.

3. Construction Contract. The City has or shall retain the services of a licensed contractor ("Contractor") to perform further design and all engineering, planning, preparation of plans and specifications, and complete construction of the Shelter Improvements, including construction management and post-construction activities, pursuant to a written agreement between the City and Contractor, as the same may be amended from time to time (the "Construction Contract").

C. Shelter Partner Obligations:

1. Reimbursement. Shelter Partner shall reimburse City for the Services performed, operational expenses of the Shelter, and Shelter Improvements pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

2. Amendments to Rules and Policies. Shelter Partner shall amend its rules and policies, including its Municipal Code, as necessary to comport to City’s shelter operating standards and fee schedule. Shelter Partner and City will work collaboratively to identify which, if any, rules and policies require amendment and which fees must be adopted. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Shelter Partner retains all legislative authority pertaining to the regulation of animals within its jurisdiction.

3. Animal Drop Off. Shelter Partner shall comply with all requirements for animal drop off identified in Exhibit A.

4. Appropriations. During the term of this Agreement, for each fiscal year, Shelter Partner and each Participant shall make every effort to adopt all necessary budgets and make all necessary appropriations for all payments due hereunder. The covenant contained in this Section shall be deemed to be, and shall be construed to be, contingent upon the continuing offer by City to provide Services and use of Shelters to each individual Participant. To the extent City offers the provision of Services and use of any Shelters to any Participant, the continued responsibility of such Participant to make all payments required hereunder shall be a duty imposed by law and it shall be the duty of each and every public official of each Participant to take such actions and do such things as are required by law in performance of the official duty of such officials to enable the Participant to carry out and perform the covenants contained in this Section. Shelter 393
3 Partner acknowledges that the construction, maintenance and availability of Shelters for the provision of services to all participating cities and the division of the costs of constructing and maintaining such Shelters among the Participants allows for costs efficiencies and significant savings to each party and that each party has entered into this Agreement in reliance on such shared costs and resulting savings. Each Party, to provide assurance of such cost efficiencies to each remaining Party, hereby expresses its commitment to fulfill its stated obligations under this Agreement regardless of the term of the Agreement overlapping more than one fiscal year and acknowledges the financial burden that any breach of the terms of this Agreement will have on all other Parties.

D. Construction Costs Allocation:

1. Scope of Costs. Total cost of the Shelter Improvements shall include: a) all design development costs; b) all costs incurred by the City pursuant to the Construction Contract; c) all site preparation costs; d) all costs of fixtures; and e) any and all other costs incurred by the City for any construction or construction related activity on the Site incurred in connection with the Shelter Improvements (the "Actual Construction Costs"). The maximum amount to be paid hereunder as Actual Construction Costs is set forth on Exhibit B, attached hereto and incorporated herein by reference (the "Maximum Construction Costs"). Upon completion of the Shelter Improvements, the City shall provide Participants with a full accounting of the application of all funds spent on Actual Construction Costs.

2. City’s Contribution. The City shall contribute toward the construction of Improvements with Four Million dollars ($4,000,000.00) to be applied toward Maximum Construction Costs. Any City funds paid by the City toward Actual Construction Costs on or after the execution of this Agreement shall count toward the $4,000,000.00 to be contributed by the City and will be applied toward costs of construction as necessary to cover any discrepancy between available Participant payment funds and Actual Construction Costs as they become due and payable.

3. Participants' Contribution. The remainder of Maximum Construction Costs beyond the Four Million dollars ($4,000,000.00) paid by the City ("Participants’ Share of Maximum Construction Costs") will be divided among Shelter Partner and the remaining Participants based on the formula set forth in Exhibit B, attached hereto.

Each Participant's respective percentage share of Participants’ Share of Maximum Construction Costs, as determined by said formula, is also set forth on Exhibit B. Five (5) years after the full execution of this Agreement, each Participant's respective percentage share of Participants’ Share of Maximum Construction Costs shall be recalculated based on the same formula as set forth in Exhibit B but using then current statistical data. If any Participant's respective percentage share of Participants’ Share of Maximum Construction Costs is altered by the recalculation by more than five percentage points, then each Participant's total share of Participants’ Share of Maximum Construction Costs shall be recalculated so that the originally calculated 394
4 percentage shall be applied to one half of Participants’ Share of Maximum Construction Costs and the recalculated percentage shall be applied to the second half of Participants’ Share of Maximum Construction Costs. All future payments owed by each Participant shall be adjusted based on the results of the recalculation of each such Participant's total share of Participants’ Share of Maximum Construction Costs.

If said adjustment results in a reduction in the amount owning by any Participant that, as of that time, has already fully paid its share of the Maximum Construction Costs, such reduction shall be credited as an offset against future charges, if any, under such Participant’s Services Agreement. If said adjustment results in an increase in the amount owning by any Participant that, as of that time, has already fully paid its previously calculated share of the Maximum Construction Costs, the amount of such increase shall be due and payable pursuant to the same payment schedule as those Participants that have not elected to prepay their share of Maximum Construction Costs, subject to the same prepayment option. The City shall, upon request, provide the requesting Participant with copies of the data and documents used to calculate each Participant's percentage share of Participants’ Share of Maximum Construction Costs.

4. Payment Schedule. Shelter Partner along with each Participant shall pay its full share of each Participants’ respective Share of Maximum Construction Costs, in addition to costs to be paid in accordance with this Services Agreement, in consideration of each such Participant's continuing right to use the Shelter and the Improvements pursuant to the terms of this Services Agreement. Each Participant's annual obligation to make the payments required hereunder is contingent on the City making available to such Participant, for the respective year, the use of Shelter pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. At the election of each individual Participant, payment of the amounts owing hereunder may be made in advance of use or may be made over the Five Years (5) year term of the Services Agreements in accordance with the Payment Schedule, attached hereto as Exhibit C and incorporated herein by reference (the "Payment Schedule"). For Participants electing not to pay in advance of the scheduled payment, the annual amount each such Participant shall owe hereunder shall be increased by the formula shown on the Payment Schedule as the "Additional Funding Cost." The higher payment amount to be paid by Participants not electing to pay in advance represents the cost to the City of the lost value over time of the money paid by the City toward Actual Construction Costs beyond the $4,000,000.00 provided for above.

The amounts indicated on the Payment Schedule further include costs to be incurred by the relevant Participant for each thirty (30) day period that any payment is overdue. Each Participant acknowledges that the construction and availability of Shelters for use by each Participant over the term of such Participant's Services Agreement is a substantial benefit to such Participant. In the event any Participant refuses to receive Services from the City in violation of the terms of such Participant’s Services Agreement despite being offered such Services by the City, or in the case of a default or failure to pay its cost share in accordance with this 395
5 Agreement, each Participant remains obligated to pay to the City its outstanding payments hereunder as they become due and payable and the City may take any legal action as appropriate to obtain such payment. Further, the Parties acknowledge that the payments owing hereunder do not reduce or offset amounts owing in relation to the Services.

5. Participation of New Cities After Commencement of Construction. After full execution of this Agreement, no city will be added to this Services program for a period of three (3) years from the date first set forth above, to allow for appropriate sizing and establishment of operational protocols for the Shelter Improvements. If a new city elects to participate in the City’s Services program after the three (3) year period indicated above, and City elects to provide Services to such city, such city will be required to pay a pro rata portion of the Maximum Construction Costs based on the formula set forth in Exhibit B. Any new participating cities' contributions pursuant to this section will be applied first toward any necessary Shelter Improvements and the remainder will be deposited into a shelter maintenance and repair fund (the "Shelter Maintenance Fund"). City shall establish a separate project fund account for all funds allocable to the Shelter Maintenance Fund and shall not commingle any other funds in said account. It is the intention of the Parties that any funds contained in the Shelter Maintenance Fund be exhausted prior to any additional contributions by the Parties toward post-construction shelter upgrades or capital improvements. Prior to contracting to provide Services to a new city, City shall consult with those Participants then currently contracting with City to receive Services pursuant to a Services agreement. City shall in good faith consider the input of those cities in making City's determination as to whether to provide Services to the proposed new city. Nevertheless, City is not bound to follow the recommendations of those cities and the ultimate determination as to whether to provide Services to the proposed city rests entirely with City.

6. Shelter Improvements Account; Deposit of Funds. Upon the execution of this Agreement, the City shall establish a separate capital project fund account for all funds of the Participants which are to be applied toward Actual Construction Costs for the Shelter Improvements (the "Shelter Improvements Account") and shall not commingle any other funds in said account. Funds payable by any Participant as an additional cost imposed due to late payment, or that are allocable to City to reimburse City for any City funds spent on Actual Construction Costs beyond the $4,000,000.00 provided for above, or that are to reimburse City for the lost value over time of the money paid by City toward Actual Construction Costs beyond the $4,000,000.00 provided for above, shall not be paid into the Shelter Improvements Account but shall be paid directly to City for City's sole use.

7. Allocation of Excess Funds. Upon final completion of the Shelter Improvements, payment of all Actual Construction Costs, and payment of all amounts due pursuant 396
6 to this Agreement, any unused funds remaining in the Shelter Improvements Account, but not exceeding an amount equal to the difference between total Actual Construction Costs incurred and Maximum Construction Costs, shall be credited to those Participants then obtaining Services from the City against future charges under each such Participant's Services agreement based on the same percentages that each such Participant paid of the Participants’ Share of Maximum Construction Costs. Any funds not distributed in accordance with the previous sentence shall be deposited into the Shelter Maintenance Fund.

E. Operational Expenses:

1. Allocation of Operational Expenses. The operational cost for Services owing pursuant to this Agreements, calculated with respect to Shelter Partner, each remaining Participant, and the City, shall include all annual costs of operation of the Shelters, including salaries and benefits for staff that are expected to be necessary to operate the Shelters. An estimated amount for staff salaries and benefits are depicted in Exhibit D attached hereto and incorporated herein by reference. This estimate is subject to reasonable modification to reflect factors including, but not limited to, the number of cities that elect to procure Services from the City and such cities’ usage needs. Shelter Partner acknowledges that the division of all operational costs among the Participants allows for costs efficiencies and operational savings to each Participant and that each Participant has entered into their respective Services Agreements in reliance on such shared costs and resulting savings. Each Participant, to provide assurance of such continued cost efficiencies to each remaining Party, hereby expresses its commitment to procure Services from the City for a period of Three (3) years with an opportunity to extend the agreement for an additional two (2) one (1) year periods and acknowledges the financial burden that any breach of this commitment would have on all other Parties. To that end this Services Agreement shall each provide for a Three (3) year term of service in accordance with Section II of this Agreement.
i. Shelter Partner acknowledges that it would be impractical or extremely difficult to fix the actual damages to actual damages to the City in the event of its breach of this Three-year commitment. The Parties agree that a reasonable estimate of such damages is an amount equal to $50,000.00 and in the event of such breach, such amount will be deemed fully agreed liquidated damages.

The Parties further acknowledge that nothing herein shall be construed as the City's exclusive remedy for the remediation of breach by a Shelter Partner or Participants, and the City reserves the right to pursue any and all available rights and remedies at law or in equity.

SECTION II. TERM
397
7 The term of this Agreement shall run from the Effective Date and continue until June 30, 2027(“Term”). This Agreement may be extended via written notice as provided by Section XIII of this Agreement by the City Manager or his or her designee for a maximum of two (2) additional years, Option Year One, if exercised, shall be effective July 1, 2027 through June 30, 2028. Option Year Two, if exercised, shall be effective July 1, 2028 through June 30, 2029.

SECTION III. COMPENSATION FOR SERVICESS
Shelter Partner shall reimburse City for the services performed and the expenses incurred in accordance with Exhibit E, Compensation, attached hereto and incorporated herein by reference.

City shall invoice Shelter Partner on a quarterly basis for such Services. Payment shall be due and payable by Shelter Partner within 30 days following its receipt of the City’s invoice. Shelter Partner acknowledges that payments for Services does not reduce or offset amounts owing towards the Improvements.

SECTION IV. HOLD HARMLESS/INDEMNIFICATION
A. Shelter Partner Indemnification: Shelter Partner shall hold harmless, indemnify, and defend City, its officers, employees, authorized volunteers, and agents from and against any and all claims, demands, causes of action, suits, actions, proceedings, costs, expenses, liability, judgments, awards, decrees, settlements, loss, damage or injury of any kind, in law or equity, to property or persons, including wrongful death, (collectively, “Claims”) of every kind brought for or on account of injuries to or death of any person or damage to any property of any kind whatsoever and to whomsoever belonging which arise out of Shelter Partner’s failure to fulfill any obligations arising pursuant to this Agreement or in connection with operation of the Shelter in relation to Shelter Partner’s operations. Shelter Partner’s obligation to indemnify shall not be restricted to insurance proceeds, if any, received by the City, its elected and appointed officials, employees, authorized volunteers, or agents.

B. City Indemnification: City shall hold harmless, indemnify, and defend each Participant, its officers, employees, authorized agents, and agents from and against any and all claims, suits, or actions of every kind brought for or on account of injuries to or death of any person or damage to any property of any kind whatsoever and to whomsoever belonging which arise out of the performance or nonperformance of City's covenants and obligations under this Agreement and which result from the actively negligent or wrongful acts of City or its officers, employees, authorized agents, or agents. This provision requiring City to hold harmless, indemnify, and defend Shelter Partner shall expressly not apply to claims, losses, liabilities, or damages arising from actions or omissions, negligent or otherwise, of any independent contractor providing services pursuant to a contract with the City. City’s obligation to indemnify shall not be restricted to insurance proceeds, if any, received by the Shelter Partner, its elected and appointed officials, employees, authorized volunteers, or agents.

C. Comparative Negligence: In the event of concurrent negligence of the City, its officers, authorized volunteers, or employees, and Shelter Partner, its officers, authorized volunteers, or employees, then the liability for any and all claims for injuries or damages to persons and/or property or any other loss or cost which arises out of the terms, conditions, covenants or 398
8 responsibilities of this Agreement shall be apportioned in any dispute or litigation according to the California theory of comparative negligence.

SECTION V. INSURANCE
City and Shelter Partner agree to maintain adequate insurance to cover their obligations under this Agreement and as required by law.

SECTION VI. TERMINATION
In the event Shelter Partner fails to pay, for any reason, any amount to be paid by Shelter Partner under this Agreement, such failure shall constitute a default under this Services Agreement and the City shall have the right to immediately terminate such Services Agreement, at its discretion.

SECTION VII. FORCE MAJEURE
If either Party is unable to comply with any provision of this Agreement due to causes beyond its reasonable control, and which could not have been reasonably anticipated, such as acts of God, acts of war, civil disorders, or other similar acts, such Party shall not be held liable for such failure to comply.

SECTION VIII. AMENDMENTS AND ENTIRE AGREEMENT
Any amendments, including but not limited to alterations, variations, or supplements, to the terms of this Agreement shall be in writing and signed by the Parties hereto. This Agreement, including any exhibits, constitutes the entire Agreement of the Parties with respect to its subject matter and supersedes all prior and contemporaneous representations, proposals, discussions and communications, whether oral or in writing.

SECTION IX. SEVERABILITY
Each paragraph or provision of this Agreement is severable from each other provision, and if any provision or part thereof is declared invalid, the remaining provisions shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated thereby to the extent such provisions are not rendered impractical to perform taking into consideration the purposes of this Agreement.

SECTION X. NO THIRD PARTY BENEFICIARIES
This Agreement between the Parties is intended for the mutual benefit of the two signing Parties only. No rights are created under this Agreement in favor of any third party or any party who is not a direct signatory to this Agreement.

SECTION XI. DISPUTE RESOLUTION
A. Defaults and Remedies.

1. Defaults. The failure by any Party to perform any of its obligations set forth in this Agreement shall constitute a default of this Agreement. Except as required to protect 399
9 against further damages, the nondefaulting Party may not institute legal proceedings against the Party in default until the nondefaulting Party has provided the defaulting Party notice of the default and the following applicable cure period has expired: (i) the cure period for any monetary default shall be fifteen (15) calendar days after the defaulting Party's receipt of written notice from the nondefaulting Party that such obligation was not performed; and (ii) the cure period for any other default shall be thirty (30) days after the defaulting Party's receipt of written notice from the nondefaulting Party that such obligation was not performed.

2. Remedies Upon Default. Upon the occurrence of any default and after the defaulting Party has received written notice of default and the time period to cure the default has expired, the nondefaulting Party may at its option pursue damages or specific performance or other legal and equitable remedies the injured Party may have against the defaulting Party in accordance with applicable law. Should Shelter Partner or any Participant fail to pay any payment due by Shelter Partner or that Participant hereunder, the City may take any action as is appropriate to obtain such payment. Nothing herein shall be construed as the City's exclusive remedy for the remediation of default by Shelter Partner or other Participants, and the City reserves the right to pursue any and all available rights and remedies at law or in equity.

3. Non-refund of Contributions. The payments made by all Parties pursuant to this Agreement shall be used for completion and maintenance of the Shelter Improvements in the manner described herein and all Parties acknowledge and agree that the completion and maintenance of the Shelter Improvements, as well as the completion of each phase of construction activity and each construction milestone under the Construction Contract, provides an immediate benefit to each Party and that no payments made pursuant to this Agreement shall be refunded for any reason other than pursuant to the last sentence of Section XI(B)(1)(i).

B. Results of Nonpayment.

1. Adjustment of Payments Upon Nonpayment.
i. The Parties acknowledge that the failure of any Participant to pay any amount hereunder will result in an increase in the operational costs of sheltering Services to be divided among all other Participants. To that end, in the event any Participant fails to pay, for any other reason, any amount to be paid by that Participant under this Agreement, within fifteen (15) days of when such payment is due, the amount of such nonpayment will be apportioned among the remaining Participants such that the remaining Participants' will be responsible to pay such unpaid amount. The amounts paid by the remaining Participants pursuant to this section will be applied in the following order: first to replenish any the City funds spent on Actual Construction Costs that would have been paid by funds owed by the nonpaying Participant, second to pay any other amounts due to the City by the nonpaying Participant pursuant to this Agreement, and the remainder to pay Actual Construction Costs as they come due. Should the non-paying Participant pay any portion of the amount owing, 400
10 the increased cost paid pursuant to this subsection by the remaining Participants will be reimbursed to the extent of the amount of such repayment. This section shall apply to each payment obligation owed and not paid by any Participant as it becomes due and payable and shall not result in any acceleration of the full amount payable by the nonpaying Participant over the term of this Agreement.

In the event any Participant should default in its obligations under this Agreement and no longer obtain sheltering Services from the City, City shall consult with all Participants then obtaining Services from the City to discuss methods of cost reduction that may be made available as a result of such reduction in sheltering Services usage.
ii. It is the intention of all Parties that no funds provided by any Participant under this Agreement shall be reimbursed for any other reason than that set forth in the last sentence of Section XI(B)(1)(i). If, pursuant to judicial action or threat thereof, any funds are reimbursed under this Agreement to any Participant, other than pursuant to the last sentence of the foregoing Section XI(B)(1)(i), the remaining Participants' will be responsible to pay to the City the reimbursed amount.
iii. Each Participant's proportional share of any amounts required to be paid by Participants pursuant to this section shall be determined based on the formula set forth on Exhibit B. Each Participant's resulting incremental increase in contribution will be due within thirty (30) days of notification by the City to the participating Participants of the increased amount owing.

2. Determine the adoption of the annual report is categorically exempt from CEQA pursuant to Section 15061(B)(3).

COUNCIL GOALS:
· Operate in a businesslike manner by ensuring that the public debate is based on accurate information.
· Increase citizen involvement by seeking community input. · Create and maintain a dynamic team by promoting stability and predictability by providing consistent policy direction.
· Create and maintain a dynamic team by communicating Goals and Objectives to all commissions and employees.

DISCUSSION:

Assembly Bill 481 (“AB 481”), codified at Government Code sections 7070 through 7075, requires the Fontana Police Department (“Department”) to obtain annual approval from City Council of its military equipment use policy (“Policy”) in order to continue the use of previously acquired military equipment.

The term “military equipment,” as used in AB 481, does not necessarily indicate equipment used by the military. Items deemed to be “military equipment” include, but are not limited to, unmanned aerial or ground vehicles, armored vehicles, command and control vehicles, pepper balls, less lethal shotguns, less lethal 40mm projectile launchers, long range acoustic devices, and flashbangs. The list of items considered “military equipment” by AB 481 are employed by many law enforcement agencies across the country as best practices to enhance citizen and officer safety. Provided as an attachment to this staff report is the updated inventory list of military equipment that the department maintains, in accordance with Government Code section 7072. The use of the military equipment identified on the inventory list is vital to the Department’s mission and will continue to be strictly regulated through internal processes and oversight.

On May 10, 2022 the City Council adopted Ordinance No. 1892 adopting a Military Equipment Use Policy, in accordance with AB 481. A copy of the Policy is included as an attachment to this staff report. In order for the Department to continue using the equipment authorized under the Policy, the Department must submit an Annual Report to City Council, that includes the following: 1) A summary of how the military equipment was used and purpose of its use. 2) A summary of any complaints or City of Fontana Page 1 of 2 Printed on 2/22/2024
powered by Legistar™411
File #: 21-2826 Agenda Date: 2/27/2024
Agenda #: M. Category: Consent Calendar
of how the military equipment was used and purpose of its use. 2) A summary of any complaints or concerns received concerning the military equipment. 3) The results of any internal audits, any information about violations of the military equipment use policy, and any actions taken in response. 4) The total actual cost for each type of military equipment, including acquisition, personnel, training, transportation, maintenance, storage, upgrade, and the other ongoing costs, and from what source funds will be provided for the military equipment in the calendar year submission of the annual military equipment report. 5) The quantity possessed for each type of military equipment. 6) If the law enforcement agency intends to acquire additional military equipment in the next year, the quantity sought for each type of military equipment.

Ordinance No. 1892 and the adopted Policy provide for safeguards to the public’s safety, welfare, and civil rights and ensures transparency, oversight, and accountability measures are in place. As examples, the Department will be required to conduct annual audits of the equipment to ensure compliance with the policy, annually report to the City Council the use of this equipment and seek approval prior to acquiring any additional military equipment.

The Department is committed to utilizing equipment that helps to safeguard the community and reduce the risk of escalating volatile situations that might rise to the level of a lethal encounter.

The Fontana Police Department webpage will be utilized for distribution of any updates to the above materials as well as for this Annual Report.

RECOMMENDATION:

Approve Translation Services Policy
COUNCIL GOALS:
· Improve public safety by increasing operational efficiency, visibility and availability. · Operate in a businesslike manner by creating a memorable customer experience with every interaction.
· Increase citizen involvement by informing the public about issues, program, and accomplishments.

DISCUSSION:

The City of Fontana recognizes its diverse population, including residents who may not be proficient in English. To ensure equitable access to critical city services and information for all residents, its recommended that the City Council consider implementing a Non-English Translation Services Policy. This policy aims to establish guidelines and procedures for providing translation services in languages other than English for the priority areas of public safety, due process, property owner rights, compliance, and essential city services.

Identification of the language(s) to prioritize translation services will be based on US Census Data and the American Community Survey data. The 2020 Census Data and the 2021 American Community Survey (ACS) indicate that 15.1% of Fontana households have a Limited English Proficiency, with the primary language spoken in the home being Spanish. All other non-English primary languages were below 2% of the population in these data.

The implementation of this policy may require additional funding to procure translation services, train bilingual staff, and conduct outreach efforts.

It is recommended that the City Council approve the proposed Translation Services Policy to demonstrate the City's continued commitment to inclusivity, accessibility, and equitable service delivery for all residents.

FISCAL IMPACT:

The city anticipates an annual increase in costs related to translations services to be approximately $6000 per year. The budget for these services will be included in future budget requests as these City of Fontana Page 1 of 2 Printed on 2/22/2024

Approve Resolution Opposing Initiative #21-0042A1, a November 2024 Statewide Ballot Proposition.

RECOMMENDATION:

Approve Resolution No. 2024-009, Opposing Initiative #21-0042A1, a November 2024 statewide ballot proposition.

COUNCIL GOALS:
· Operate in a businesslike manner by ensuring that the public debate is based on accurate information.
· Practice sound fiscal management by developing long-term funding and debt management plans.
· Concentrate on Inter-governmental relations by establishing partnerships and positive working relationships with other public agencies providing services to residents and local businesses.

DISCUSSION:

Initiative #21-0042A1 is a November 2024 statewide ballot proposition. The measure is a significant threat to local control and voters’ rights that could jeopardize funding for vital services.

This measure creates new constitutional loopholes that allow corporations to pay far less than their fair share for the impacts they have on our communities, which could force residents and taxpayers to pay more to maintain services.

The measure puts billions of dollars currently dedicated to local services at risk, and could force cuts to fire and emergency response, law enforcement, services to support parks, and much more.

The measure is also an attack on voters’ rights, containing undemocratic provisions that would make it more difficult for local voters to pass measures to fund local services, provisions that retroactively cancel measures recently passed by voters, and provisions that prevent voters from passing advisory measures that provide direction on how they want their local tax dollars spent.

Furthermore, the measure contains intentionally vague and restrictive language that will encourage hundreds of frivolous lawsuits against cities and local governments - costing taxpayers millions and blocking investments, development and long-term planning.

WHEREAS, the measure contains intentionally restrictive language that will encourage hundreds of frivolous lawsuits against cities and local governments – costing taxpayers many millions and stopping investments in vital local services; and WHEREAS, the measure would make it much more difficult for state and local regulators to issue fines and levies on corporations that violate laws intended to protect our environment, public health and safety, and our neighborhoods; and WHEREAS, the measure is opposed by hundreds of local governments, teachers, firefighters, working families and local elected officials.
