1. FOOTHILL/SIERRA CORRIDOR
Deputy City Manager Phillip Burum introduced the item.
Senior Planner R ina Leung provided the staff report and provided background information on the Foothill/Sierra Corridor and entertainment overlay district.
Senior Planner Leung also discussed the three Entertainment Center nodes at key 42
intersections, along with the established and the permitted uses for each.
Beautification requirements for the Entertainment Center were discussed and examples of monument signage and public art themes were provided.
Mayor Pro Tem Garcia inquired about the reasoning behind the node locations being set up outside of the downtown corridor.
Deputy City Manager Burum explained that the nodes were designed to focus on key areas along Foothill Boulevard and Sierra Avenue, aiming to encourage expansive entertainment and food-related uses and establish destination points.
Council Member Cothran asked why the focus was solely on the Entertainment Center nodes and not Foothill Boulevard as a whole.
Deputy City Manager Burum stated that the Senate Bill 2 grant the City received addressed areas south of Foothill Boulevard and Sierra Avenue, which guided the focus.
Council Member Roberts expressed concern about restrictions on automotive uses at Sierra Avenue and Marygold Avenue, emphasizing the need to ensure the viability of existing auto-related businesses.
Mayor Warren agreed that further discussion on automotive uses was necessary.
Council Member Sandoval voiced concerns about the potential impact of the changes on small businesses.
Commissioner Ricardo Quintana asked how prohibited uses for each node were determined, specifically for Entertainment Node 3 at Foothill Boulevard and Cherry Avenue.
Senior Planner Leung explained the rationale behind the designated uses for each node, adding that adjustments could be made if needed.
Deputy City Manager Burum noted that the Foothill Boulevard and C herry Avenue node lacks the same traffic counts as other nodes.
Chair Fort raised concerns about restrictions on medical uses in one of the nodes.
Deputy City Manager Burum explained that the area already includes over 11,000 medical uses, primarily due to the presence of the Kaiser Permanente Medical Center.
Planning Commission Chair Fort inquired about Alcohol Beverage Control (ABC) permitting for restaurants.

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 providing for the development of new infrastructure.
DISCUSSION:
In 2011, the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) ordered all natural gas transmission operators in the State of California to develop an Implementation Plan to achieve the goal of orderly and cost-effectively testing or replacing all natural gas transmission pipelines in their system that have not been pressure-tested. As a result, the Pipeline Safety Enhancement Plan (PSEP) was established to promote the continued safety and integrity of natural gas transmission pipelines.
As part of implementing the PSEP, Southern California Gas Company (SCGC) identified an existing valve and blowdown assembly located in Merrill Avenue between Mango Avenue and Palmetto Avenue to be upgraded. The proposed upgrade will provide Automatic Shut-Off Valve/Remote Control Valve capabilities through the installation of a new actuator encompassed by a new vault and related facilities. Furthermore, two blowdown assemblies will be installed. Two new vaults will be installed to gain access to the blowdown assemblies.
The existing valves and blowdown assembly located in Merrill Avenue will be removed and the new automated valves and blowdown assemblies will be constructed within Veterans Memorial Park in the location shown on Exhibit “B2” of the agreement. The new facility will be enclosed by a retaining wall and wrought iron fence.
The agreement describes the type, use, and location of easements and construction license City of Fontana Printed on 12/5/2024Page 1 of 2

Agenda #: D. Category: Consent Calendar
FROM:
Human Resources
SUBJECT:
Adopt the Updated Salary Table for the Non-Classified, Part-time Classifications and City Hall Bargaining Unit Due to Minimum Wage Increases.
RECOMMENDATION:
Adopt Resolution No. 2024-127 a resolution of the City Council of the City of Fontana adopting the non-classified, part-time and City Hall Bargaining Unit salary tables to comply with minimum wage increases, effective January 1, 2025.
COUNCIL GOALS:
· Operate in a businesslike manner by ensuring that the public debate is based on accurate information.
· Operate in a businesslike manner by correcting problems immediately. · Practice sound fiscal management by producing timely and accurate financial information.
DISCUSSION:
In an effort to continually provide living wages to all workers, the California Legislature has enacted a state mandate raising minimum wage from its current level of $16.00 per hour to $16.50 per hour across all industries, effective January 1, 2025.
In order to adhere to the state mandate, the City of Fontana has reassessed current part-time salaries to remain competitive in the marketplace while consistently attracting quality candidates. The City of Fontana also reviewed other salary tables for other classifications that are below $16.50 per hour. There are three classifications in the City Hall Bargaining Unit identified and updated to $16.50 per hour: Cashier, Clerical Aide, and Environmental Control Trainee.
Staff is recommending the formal adoption by City Council of the attached Salary Tables. Formal adoption of all City Salary Tables is in accordance with the guidelines provided by the California Public Employee Retirement System (CalPERS).
FISCAL IMPACT:
Annual fiscal impact related to the 2025 Minimum Wage increase is estimated at $368,780 citywide.
Total for the Community Services Departments is estimated at $358,460 annually, $186,720 in the General Fund and the difference of $171,740 in the After School Program. No additional funding is needed as the current part-time budget in Community Services is able to cover costs associated with the minimum wage increase.

SUBJECT:
Award a Construction Contract for the Pacific Electric Trail Canopy (Outdoor Fitness Zone Equipment) PW-24-251-CC
RECOMMENDATION:
Award bid and authorize the City Manager to execute a construction contract with A&R Tarpaulins, Inc. for the construction of the Pacific Electric Trail - Canopy (Outdoor Exercise Equipment) in the amount of $162,194.11 and authorize a 10% contingency in the amount of $16,219.41 (Bid No. PW- 24-251-CC).
COUNCIL GOALS:
· Enhance the local environment for future generations and create a healthy economic and environmental future by encouraging healthy eating, regular physical activity, and responsible individual choices.
· Invest in the City’s infrastructure (streets, sewers, parks, etc.) by creating and promoting community through people, parks, and programs.
DISCUSSION:
The Pacific Electric Trail as it currently exists is an 18-mile long multi-use pedestrian and bicycle path that follows the old Pacific Electric Railway from Claremont to Rialto. The trail has transformed active transportation opportunities for the City of Fontana, enhancing old railways into new trails for the community. The Pacific Electric Trail is multiuse for bicyclists, runners, and pedestrians along with connection to the larger regional non-motorized, multi-use commuter and recreational trail system.
The trail supports the City’s‘HealthyFontana’goals, providing local historical enrichment alongside a sustainable and nurturing destination. This project will provide a canopy shade for the new outdoor Fitness Zone exercise equipment that will be installed along the trail east of Interstate 15 Freeway and west of North Heritage Circle.
On November 7, 2024, at 2:00pm, the bid for this contract was opened. A total of twenty-six (26) vendors were notified and eighteen (18) bidders downloaded the bid documents. The city only received one (1) bid from A&R Tarpaulins, Inc. of Fontana, California. After reviewing the proposed bid documents, Purchasing has determined A&R Tarpaulins, Inc. to be responsible and responsible bidder.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The fiscal impact associated with the approval of this item is $162,194.11 plus a 10% contingency in the amount of $16,219.41 and is included in the 2024-25 Current Budget for the Pacific Electric Trail City of Fontana Printed on 12/5/2024Page 1 of 2
