FROM:

Development Services
SUBJECT:

Purchase and Sale Agreement-16641 & 16643 Orange Way
RECOMMENDATION:

1. Approve a Purchase & Sale Agreement for the purchase of buildings and associated land located at 16641 & 16643 Orange Fontana, CA 92335 specifically described as APN 0191-251-21 & 0191-251-06 in the amount of $7,500,000 plus escrow costs and related acquisition fees.

2. Authorize the purchase of that certain Real Property with APN 0191-251-21 & 0191-251-06 comprised of approximately 34,000 sq. ft. on two parcels of land totaling approx. 67,691 sq. ft (“Property”) from Landexcorp, LLC, A California Limited Liability Company.

3. Authorize the City Manager to enter into the Purchase and Sale Agreement and/or any other documents necessary or appropriate to facilitate said purchase on behalf of the City of Fontana.

COUNCIL GOALS:
· Promote economic development by pursuing business attraction, retention, and expansion. · Practice sound fiscal management by living within our means while investing in the future. · Invest in the City’s infrastructure (streets, sewers, parks, etc.) by maintaining and improving the city's existing infrastructure.
· Invest in the City’s infrastructure (streets, sewers, parks, etc.) by providing for the development of new infrastructure.

DISCUSSION:

The City of Fontana continues to experience significant population growth and is now the most populous city in San Bernardino County. This growth has led to a corresponding increase in public infrastructure and demands on public services. To illustrate the scale of current maintenance responsibilities, Public Works staff currently manage over 220 traffic signals, 52 public parks, 470 miles of sewer lines, 640 centerline miles of roadway, and more than 28 public buildings-including the recently completed downtown parking structure.

The existing Public Works Yard, located at 16489 Orange Way, consists of two office buildings and service bays supporting multiple divisions: Utilities and Streets, Parks and Landscape, Fleet and Facilities, Inspection, Traffic Operations, and Environmental Compliance. In addition, Public Works operates an adjacent outdoor lot for employee and departmental equipment parking, an equipment City of Fontana Page 1 of 2 Printed on 10/9/2025

File #: 25-0585 Agenda Date: 10/14/2025
Agenda #: P. Category: Consent Calendar
storage yard, and the Fontana Household Hazardous Waste Facility at 16454 Orange Way.

In response to the increasing scope of City infrastructure and rising service demands along with new state and federal regulatory requirements, the City has added staffing and equipment in recent years.

As a result, staff is facing growing challenges with onsite parking and constrained workspaces. The Yard is inadequate for the service demands being placed on it, already operating beyond its intended capacity, lacking room to accommodate further growth or additional demands for facilities based on state regulations.

The City and the Seller have negotiated a Purchase Agreement with the following proposed dealpoints:
· The City of Fontana would acquire the property for the price of $7,500,000. · The City of Fontana and Seller, Landexcorp, LLC, will equally split any/all escrow fees as appropriate.
· The City will have 90 days from the opening of escrow to complete its due diligence on the subject property to confirm the suitability and condition of the property for the city’s intended use.
· The City will have a ninety-day financing period to complete all wire-transfers and documents necessary for the close of escrow after approval of the feasibility review.

Approval of the Purchase Agreement and acquisition of the subject property is a crucial step in the City’s efforts to expand Public Works facilities.

FISCAL IMPACT:

The fiscal impact associated with the approval of this item is estimated to be $11,000,000 (including escrow costs, acquisition fees, and tenant improvements). The necessary budget adjustments will be included in the FY 25-26 First Quarter Budget Report in Fund 632.

MOTION:

Approve staff recommendation.

DISCLOSURE REGARDING REAL ESTATE AGENCY RELATIONSHIP
(Asrequired by the Civil Code)

To the Buyer and the Seller:
(a) Diligent exercise of reasonable skill and care in performance of the agent's duƟes. (b) A duty of honest and fair dealing and good faith.
(c) A duty to disclose all facts known to the agent materially affecƟng the value or desirability of the property that are not known to, or within the diligent aƩenƟon and observaƟon of, the parƟes.

An agent is not obligated to reveal to either party any confidenƟal informaƟon obtained from the other party that does not involve the affirmaƟve duƟesset forth above.

BUYER'S AGENT
A Buyer's agent can, with a Buyer's consent, agree to act as agent for the Buyer only. In these situaƟons, the agent is not the Seller's agent, even if by agreement the agent may receive compensaƟon forservices rendered, either in full or in part from the Seller. An agent acƟng only for a Buyer has the following affirmaƟve obligaƟons:

To the Buyer: A fiduciary duty of utmost care, integrity, honesty and loyalty in dealings with the Buyer.

To the Buyer and the Seller:
(a) Diligent exercise of reasonable skill and care in performance of the agent's duƟes. (b) A duty of honest and fair dealing and good faith.
(c) A duty to disclose all facts known to the agent materially affecƟng the value or desirability of the property that are not known to, or within the diligent aƩenƟon and observaƟon of, the parƟes.

An agent is not obligated to reveal to either party any confidenƟal informaƟon obtained from the other party that does not involve the affirmaƟve duƟesset forth above.

AGENT REPRESENTING BOTH SELLER AND BUYER
A real estate agent, either acƟng directly or through one or more salesperson and broker associates, can legally be the agent of both the Seller and the Buyer in a transacƟon, but only with the knowledge and consent of both the Seller and the Buyer.

In a dual agency situaƟon, the agent hasthe following affirmaƟve obligaƟonsto both the Seller and the Buyer:
(a) A fiduciary duty of utmost care, integrity, honesty and loyalty in the dealings with either the Seller or the Buyer. (b) Other duƟes to the Seller and the Buyer as stated above in their respecƟve secƟons.

In represenƟng both Seller and Buyer, a dual agent may not, without the express permission of the respecƟve party, disclose to the other party confidenƟal informaƟon, including, but not limited to, facts relaƟng to either the Buyer's or Seller's financial posiƟon, moƟvaƟons, bargaining posiƟon, or other personal informaƟon that may impact price, including the Seller's willingness to accept a price less than the lisƟng price or the Buyer's willingness to pay a price greater than the price offered.

SELLER AND BUYER RESPONSIBILITIES
Either the purchase agreement or a separate document will contain a confirmaƟon of which agent is represenƟng you and whether that agent isrepresenƟng you exclusively in the transacƟon or acƟng as a dual agent. Please pay aƩenƟon to that confirmaƟon to make sure it accurately reflects your understanding of your agent’s role. The above duƟes of the agent in a real estate transacƟon do not relieve a Seller or Buyer from the responsibility to protect his or her own interests. You should carefully read all agreements to assure that they adequately express your understanding of the transacƟon. A real estate agent is a person qualified to advise about real estate. If legal or tax advice is desired, consult a competent professional. If you are a Buyer, you have the duty to exercise reasonable care to protect yourself, including as to those facts about the property which are known to you or within your diligent aƩenƟon and observaƟon.

A lisƟng agent and a selling agent may agree to share any compensaƟon or commission paid, or any right to any compensaƟon or commission for which an obligaƟon arises as the result of a real estate transacƟon, and the terms of any such agreement shall not necessarily be determinaƟve of a parƟcular relaƟonship.
2079.20 Nothing in this arƟcle prevents an agent from selecƟng, as a condiƟon of the agent’s employment, a specific form of agency relaƟonship not specifically prohibited by this arƟcle if the requirements of SecƟon 2079.14 and SecƟon 2079.17 are complied with. 2079.21 (a) A dual agent may not, without the express permission of the seller, disclose to the buyer any confidenƟal informaƟon obtained from the seller.

Any clause, provision, covenant, or agreement purporƟng to impose an obligaƟon to defend or indemnify a lender or an aucƟon company in violaƟon of thissubdivision is against public policy, void, and unenforceable. 2079.24 Nothing in this arƟcle shall be construed to either diminish the duty of disclosure owed buyers and sellers by agents and their associate licensees,subagents, and employees or to relieve agents and their associate licensees, subagents, and employeesfrom liability for their conduct in connecƟon with acts governed by this arƟcle or for any breach of a fiduciary duty or a duty of disclosure.

Resolution of the City Council of the City Of Fontana, California Approving a Second Amendment to the First Amended and Restated Billboard Relocation Agreement Between the City Of Fontana and Lamar Central Outdoor LLC to Update Certain Relocated Sign Locations RECOMMENDATION:

City Council adopt Resolution No. 2025-099, approving the Second Amendment to the First Amended and Restated Billboard Relocation Agreement with Lamar Central Outdoor, LLC, to update the locations for Location 2 and Location 4, and authorizing the City Manager to execute all necessary documents to effectuate this amendment
COUNCIL GOALS:
· Promote economic development by establishing a quick, consistent development process. · Promote economic development by being business friendly at all levels and striving to constantly improve the city's competitiveness.

DISCUSSION:

At its meeting on June 10, 2025, the Council considered proposed new locations for two digital billboards to be erected by Lamar Central Outdoor. This item memorializes the new locations.

The City of Fontana (“City”) and Lamar Central Outdoor, LLC (“Lamar”) are parties to a long-standing agreement governing, amongst other things, the relocation of billboard signs within the City. The initial agreement, the Billboard Relocation Agreement, was entered into on March 26, 2013. This was subsequently superseded in its entirety by the First Amended and Restated Billboard Relocation Agreement dated September 24, 2013 (the " Restated Agreement"). One of the purposes of the Restated Agreement was to facilitate the permanent removal of certain billboards in exchange for the construction of a limited number of relocated signs at approved locations. The Restated Agreement was previously amended by Resolution No. 2020-121 (the "Agreement").

Lamar has requested a second amendment to the Agreement (the "Amendment") to revise two of the previously approved billboard relocation sites contained in Exhibit B. This Amendment involves a straight substitution of sites only. The Amendment specifically addresses approved Location No. 2 and approved Location No. 4. Location 2 is being revised from its former site at Summit Avenue and Lytle Creek Road to a new location at Cherry Avenue and South Highland Avenue. Location 4 is being revised from its former location at Citrus Avenue, north of the 210 freeway, to a new location at Citrus Avenue and South Highland Avenue.

Agenda #: Q. Category: Consent Calendar
The new locations, including revised descriptions and depictions, are more specifically set forth in Exhibit B-1 to the Amendment.

CEQA:

Approval of the Amendment only authorizes Lamar to pursue development of the relocated billboards as described herein and does not constitute a lease of real property with respect to the establishment of the relocated billboards or development or building permits of any kind. Therefore, approval of the Amendment does not constitute approval by the City of any development of real property or of other activity that would have a direct or reasonably foreseeable indirect environmental impact pursuant to CEQA. (See 14 C.C.R §§ 15060(c); 15378(b)). Further, pursuant to Section 15060(c) of the CEQA Guidelines (i.e., California Code of Regulations, Title 14, Division 6, Chapter 3 §§ 15000-15387), approval of this Resolution is exempt from CEQA because the actions described herein will not result in a direct or reasonable foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment and the actions described herein are not a “Project,” as defined within Section 15378 of the CEQA Guidelines. City Council directs staff to promptly file a Notice of Exemption with respect to the Amendment.

FISCAL IMPACT:

There is no fiscal impact.

Master Case No. 25-0047 and Municipal Code Amendment No. 25-0008: Fontana Municipal Code amendments to Chapter 30 to modify multiple sections of the Zoning and Development Code, including modifications to the definition of and operating standards for restaurants, allowance for certain temporary buildings during commercial reconstruction or remodeling, development standards for the Multi-Family Medium/High Density Residential (R-4) zone, administrative procedures pertaining to administrative site plan and design review entitlements; modification to Chapter 26 pertaining to time extensions for tentative maps; and modification to Chapter 33 to provide additional delivery standards for cannabis retail storefront businesses, pursuant to a categorical exemption in accordance with CEQA Guidelines Sections 15060(C), 15061(B)(3) and Section 15378.

The corner angle of the intersecting building may encroach into the setback of the other building by up to five feet provided there is an equal or greater setback at the other end of the intersecting building. Such encroachment shall also be averaged so that for each building that is allowed to encroach into the setback, another building will offset such encroachment by an equal number of feet. (Where two buildings meet at corner angles, the side-to-front setback criteria shall be used.)
(10) Balconies, patios (uncovered and covered), patio fences/walls, porches, and similar like structures (as determined by the Director of Community Development) may project into the setback area up to a maximum of six feet, 539
Ordinance No. 1970

Page 25 of 28 ends

providing, however, that such structures shall never be separated by less than 15 feet (horizontal).
(11) The "rear" of a building is defined as the point or area farthest from the front.

Where a building is identified to have two fronts the building may be considered not to have a rear facing.
(12) Setback from underdeveloped property in the R-2 zone shall be determined at the R-1 single-family zones development standard of 25 feet. (13) Where a new building is to be constructed on a corner lot or intersection, a wraparound building design with an angled corner shall be utilized in order to maximize and encourage pedestrian activity.
(14) Parking setback may be decreased to zero for subterranean parking structures.
(15) The minimum building setback to the R-1 zoning district may be reduced to 10 feet for development within the R-4 overlay for projects developed consistent with the density requirements of the R-4 overlay and where the adjacent parcel is vacant and undeveloped.

AMENDMENT TO FONTANA MUNICIPAL CODE CHAPTER 30
(*Additions shown in underline, deletions shown in strikeout) Chapter 26 – SUBDIVISIONS
DIVISION 2. – TENTATIVE TRACT MAP REQUIREMENTS
Sec. 26-58. Expiration of approval.
(a) An approved tentative tract map shall expire 24 months after its approval, unless this time period is otherwise extended pursuant to this section or pursuant to any provision of the Subdivision Map Act as enacted or subsequently amended, but in no event shall an approved tentative tract map be valid beyond 15 years from the date it was first approved.
(b) In addition to the time period set forth in subsection (a) of this section and upon application of the subdivider filed prior to expiration of the approved tentative tract map, an additional period of time, not to exceed five years, may be granted by the planning commission Director of Planning. When an application is filed pursuant to this subsection, the map shall automatically be extended for 60 days or until the planning commission Director of Planning approves, conditionally approves, or denies the application for the extension.
(c) The period of time specified in subsections (a) and (b) of this section shall not include any period of time during which a development moratorium, imposed after approval of the tentative tract map, is in existence; provided, however, that the length of the moratorium does not exceed five years. Once a moratorium is terminated, the map shall be valid for the same period of time as was left to run on the map at the time the moratorium was imposed. However, if the remaining time is less than 120 calendar days, the map shall be valid for 120 calendar days following the termination of the moratorium. For purposes of this section, a development moratorium shall include a water or sewer moratorium, as well as other actions of public agencies which regulate land use, development or the provision of services to the land, including those of school and fire districts. (d) The period of time specified in subsections (a) and (b) of this section shall not include any period of time during which a lawsuit involving the approval of the tentative tract map is or was pending in a court of competent jurisdiction if, upon application of the subdivider and upon conclusive proof of the existence of such lawsuit, the planning commission agrees, in accordance with California Government Code § 66452.6(c), to stay such time period. Within 40 days after receiving the application, the city shall either stay the time period for up to five years or deny the requested stay. The planning commission shall determine whether the conditions of approval imposed at the time the tentative tract map 5529
was first approved are sufficient to protect the health, safety and welfare of the general public. The planning commission has the right to amend, modify or delete such conditions of approval as a condition of the requested stay. (e) If the subdivider is required to expend $125,000.00 or more to construct, improve, or finance the construction or improvement of public improvements outside the property boundaries of the tentative map, excluding improvements of public rights-of-way which abut the boundary of the property to be subdivided and which are reasonably related to the development of that property, upon the filing of a final map, the expiration of the tentative tract map shall be extended by 36 months from the date of its expiration or the date of the previously filed final map, whichever is later. This subsection shall apply only to situations wherein multiple final maps are filed with the city. The extension provided in this subsection shall not extend the tentative map more than ten years from its date of approval.

Nothing in this subsection limits the authority of the planning commission to impose reasonable conditions to the filing of multiple final maps. (f) In addition to any other extension of time provided by this section or provided by the Subdivision Map Act, the expiration date of any tentative tract map that did not expire before September 13, 1993, shall be extended by 24 months. (g) In addition to any other extension of time provided by this section or provided by the Subdivision Map Act the expiration date of any tentative tract map that did not expire before May 15, 1996, shall be extended by 12 months. (h) In addition to any other extension of time provided by this section or provided by the Subdivision Map Act any tentative tract map that would have expired on or after March 3, 2020 and before December 31, 2020, shall be extended by 12 months.
(i) Subject to the 15 year time limit set forth in subsection (a) of this section, a tentative tract map on property subject to a development agreement authorized by Article 2.5 (commencing with Section 65864) of Chapter 4 of Division 1 of the California Government Code may be extended for the period of time provided for in the agreement, but not beyond the duration of the agreement. Such extension occurs upon the filing of each final map authorized by Government Code § 66456.1.

SUBJECT:

Quarterly Lien Action for Delinquent Sewer, Solid Waste and Weed Abatement Accounts RECOMMENDATION:

1. Authorize staff to complete and record lien against real property for those sewer accounts sixty days or more delinquent, solid waste accounts more than ninety days delinquent, and for properties with delinquent weed abatement charges outstanding as described in attached resolutions and written reports and to direct staff to file for the recording of liens for such properties.

2. Adopt Resolution No. 2025-100, of the City Council of the City of Fontana authorizing the collection of certain annual wastewater and solid waste service charges, including delinquent charges for each service, on the County property tax rolls and determining and record liens against current delinquent parcels.

3. Adopt Resolution No. 2025-101 of the City Council of the City of Fontana adopting the statement of unpaid expenses for weed abatement and imposing a lien against real property for payment thereof. ..End
COUNCIL GOALS:
· To operate in a businesslike manner by becoming more service oriented. · To practice sound fiscal management by developing long-term funding and debt management plans.
· To improve public safety by increasing operational efficiency, visibility, and availability.

DISCUSSION:

Public Hearings on proposed liens are scheduled quarterly to allow for timely collections and recording of indebtedness. The lien process protects revenues due to the City which would have otherwise been subject to loss through skipped accounts or property transfers.

The proposed written reports (one each for sewer, solid waste and weed abatement) are on file with the City Clerk. Each property owner has had notification provided as required by state law regarding the public hearing and intent to record the lien amount, as well as regular billing notification and legal advertisement as required by City Code. Further, with respect to Weed Abatement, all property owners had the opportunity to protest weed abatement citations through an administrative hearing City of Fontana Page 1 of 2 Printed on 10/9/2025

process.

The lists recommended for adoption contain the following; Type of Account Number of Properties Current Lien Amount Receivables Protected to Date
Sewer 217 $66,805.65 $4,521,656.73
Solid Waste* 86 $35,509.94 $9,636,503.12
Weed Abatement 30 $10,831.10 $4,301,003.15
*Collections are payable to Burrtec Waste and should be made directly to them.

Numbers subject to change if payments are collected
An administrative fee will be included to offset the City's costs to record the lien, as well as the County fee associated with release of the lien to ensure that property titles are cleared once payment has been made. All properties with unpaid liens as of July 1st will be subject to having the remaining amounts placed on the property tax rolls for collection through separate City Council action.

FISCAL IMPACT:

The approval of this item will result in liens totaling approximately $113,146.69 being recorded with the San Bernardino County Recorder’s Office and other applicable County offices. These recorded liens will remain in effect until paid and, if still unpaid, will be included in the City’s next annual process to place delinquent charges on the County property tax roll for collection. This action will help prevent increases in customer charges due to uncollectible accounts. The Sewer lien list receivable amount has been included as revenue in the Sewer Operations Maintenance Fund for current and prior budget periods. Recording the solid waste liens strengthens Fontana solid waste’s ability to collect, thereby increasing the amount generated by the 12 % franchise fee remitted to the City MOTION:

Section 1. Recitals. The City Council hereby finds and determines that the above recitals are true and correct and are incorporated herein by this reference.

Section 7. CEQA.

The City, acting as the lead agency, determined that the resolution is not subject to CEQA pursuant to Sections 15060(c)(2), 15060(c)(3), and 15061(b)(3) of the State CEQA Guidelines, because it will not result in a direct or reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change to the environment as there is no possibility that the action would result in a significant environmental impact, and because it does not constitute a “project” as defined in Section 15378 of the State CEQA Guidelines, California Code of Regulations, Title 14, Chapter 3.

THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF FONTANA DOES ORDAIN AS
FOLLOWS:

Section 1. The above recitals are true, correct and incorporated herein by this reference.

Section 2. The City Council of the City of Fontana (“City") is informed and finds that it is reasonably necessary to amend certain portions of the 2025 Edition of The California Building Standards Code, known as the California Code of Regulations, Title 24, to meet the particular climatic, geological, and topographical conditions existing in the City. The City Council further finds that some changes and modifications are of an administrative or procedural nature or concern themselves with subjects not covered by the Code or are reasonably necessary to safeguard life and property within the City. The City Council hereby adopts the following (climatic, geological, and topographical, where applicable) findings to support the proposed amendments to the 2025 California Building Standards Code made herein in this Ordinance:
(a) The City is subject to relatively low amounts of precipitation, very low 606
humidity levels, and extremely high temperatures. These climatic conditions are conducive to the spread of fire. For example, during July, August, and September, temperatures often exceed 100 degrees Fahrenheit. During the same months, humidity is usually less than 40%, and humidity measurements less than 10% are not uncommon. These conditions contribute to an increased likelihood of fire. Moreover, minor fires have a greater tendency of spreading rapidly due to such conditions. (Finding applicable to Amendments to California Building Code Sections903.2 and 1505.5; and California Residential Code Section R309.)
(b) The City is subject to extremely strong winds, commonly referred to as "Santa Ana Winds," which reach speeds in excess of 90 miles per hour. Extensive damage often occurs during such winds, including fallen trees; blown sand and debris; downed utility poles, utility circuits, and utility service lines; and structural damage to buildings.

These adverse conditions can cause: (1) fires; (2) impairment of emergency apparatus access; (3) delays in response times of emergency apparatus; and (4) the depletion of apparatus readily available for fire suppression activities. These windstorms commonly last from three to seven days.
(Finding applicable to Amendments to California Building Code Sections 502.1, 903.2, 1609.3, 1609.4.3, Table 1504.8, Table 1507.2.7.1(1), Table 1507.2.7.1(2) and I105.2; and California Electric Code Section 225.1; and California Residential Code Sections R301.2.1.4, R30.81, R309, Table R301.2, and BF105.2.)
(c) The City's neighboring foothills create a unique fire hazard. This is because fire service is provided to the City by the San Bernardino County Fire Department and fire units from the City are often sent to assist in the extinguishment of fast moving, wind-assisted fires in the neighboring foothills which destroy or damage many structures, and as such, these units are then unavailable for fire suppression in the City.
(Finding applicable to Amendments to California Building Code Sections 502.1, 903.2, and 1505.5; and California Residential Code Sections R308.1 and R309)
(d) Development has occurred in the City and continues to occur in the City and such development has resulted in severe traffic congestion during peak business hours, weekends, and holidays, thus 607
decreasing response time, particularly on the following streets and highways: Sierra Avenue, Valley Boulevard, Cherry Avenue, Foothill Boulevard, Base Line Road, Highland Avenue, Citrus Avenue, Slover Avenue, Jurupa Avenue, Arrow Route, San Bernardino Avenue, the I-15 Freeway and the I-10 Freeway. Such traffic and circulation congestion is an artificially created, obstructive topographical condition creating a situation which places fire department response time to fire occurrences at risk, and makes it necessary to provide automatic on- site fire-extinguishing systems and other protection measures to protect occupants and property from fire hazards. Automatic fire protection systems are the single greatest means of reducing the severity of structural fires; fire loss in un-sprinklered buildings is four times greater than fire loss in sprinklered buildings. Numerous fires have occurred within the City in residential structures (houses, apartments, hotels, and motels) over the past several years that have automatic fire protection systems, and in all of these fires, the automatic fire protection systems have successfully controlled and/or suppressed the fire before the emergency response personnel have been able to arrive at the structure.
(Finding applicable to Amendments to California Building Code Sections 502.1 and 903.2; and California Residential Code Sections R308.1 and R309.)
(e) An extreme and unusual fire hazard exists in the hillsides and other areas of the City south of Jurupa Avenue and north of the I-15 Freeway due to the presence of highly flammable vegetation, the region's dry climate, and frequent hot, dry Santa Ana winds.
(Finding applicable to Amendments to California Building Code Sections 903.2 and 1505.5; and California Residential Code Section R309.)
(f) The City is located in Southern California, in an extremely active seismic region, with high levels of historic earthquake shaking in the recent past (earthquakes measuring larger than a magnitude 5 on the Richter Scale) and can be expected to experience significant strong ground shaking within
the foreseeable future; and
The seismotectonic setting of the City is dominated by the Sierra Madre-Cucamonga fault, which traverses the Northern portion of the City, and the City's close proximity to the San Andreas fault--7 miles 608
to the East, San Jacinto fault--3 miles to the East and WhittierElsinore Fault--19 miles to the Southwest; and In the event of a severe earthquake, these faults present the potential for catastrophic damage, including fire, damage to roadways and other impairments of emergency apparatus. (This information is according to maps used by Cal Tech, Pasadena and provided by the U.S. Geological Survey). Existing and planned developments are at risk from structural damage from earthquake faults. Improved standards are necessary to ensure that maximum safety is provided to persons and property.
(Finding applicable to Amendments to California Building Code Sections 502.1; and California Electric Code Section 225.1; and California Residential Code Sections R308.1 and Table R301.2.)
(g) Aluminum expands and shrinks at a much greater rate than other metals. This property becomes critical for smaller wires of aluminum conductors, which may break down at a termination point in a seismic event, causing a fire. As discussed above, the City is located in an extreme active seismic region.
(Finding applicable to Amendment to California Electric Code Section 110.5.)
(h) Additional amendments and deletions to the California Building Standards Code, known as the California Code of Regulations, Title 24; the International Building Code; and the International Residential Code; are administrative or procedural in nature and reasonable and necessary to safeguard life and property within the City. (Finding applicable to Amendments to the California Building Code Sections 1.8.8, 202, 502.1, 3109.2, J103.2, and J104.1; and California Residential Code Sections 1.8.8, R306.1, Table R301.2, and Appendix CI(1).)
(i) The topography of the City is mostly rocky with large boulders and stones below grade in much of the northern part of the City, which is rapidly being developed; and
Given the topography of the City, it is impractical and unreasonable to remove all rocks 12 inches or more in diameter from certain development areas or place these rocks at more than 10 feet below grade; and
609
Geotechnical, civil, and/or soil engineers have opined that due to the rocky topography of the City, the use of rocks with a maximum dimension larger than 12 inches and up to 24 inches as fill material at three feet or more below grade and rocks with a maximum dimension greater than 24 inches as fill material at ten feet or more below grade is safe and prudent.
(Finding applicable to Amendment to California Building Code Section J107.4.)
