Notes:
1) Building shall mean a structure containing dwelling units. For purpose of this table, building setback standards shall be for any building exceeding a single -story.
Setback standards may be modified by other lettered notes herein. 2) Subtract ten feet for a single -story dwelling unit or a multi -story dwelling unit having a single -story element with a depth of at least ten feet. 3) All primary ground -floor common entries and individual dwelling unit entries fronting Foothill Blvd, Orange Way, Cypress Avenue or Valencia Avenue shall be oriented to the street, not the interior of the development or parking lot. 4) On a case by case basis, the Community Development Director may require up to ten feet of additional building setback from all property lines to accommodate entrance stops, porches, patios and other architecture features, as well as landscaping areas.
5) For the purpose of this table, accessory structure means a subordinate structure which is incidental to and is detached from the main building but is on the same lot and supports the primary use on -site. If an accessory structure is attached to the building by way of a continuation of the building roof, the accessory structure shall be considered an addition to the building.
6) " Front" is defined as that face of the building or unit with a major glass area and/ or major private recreation area and may include access to that private recreation area. This access may or may not relate to the primary entrance to the building that faces the public right- of-way or private drive aisle; therefore, some buildings may have more than one " front" under this definition.
7) For the purpose of this table, zoning districts are not considered adjacent if separated by a dedicated public right- of-way or utility easement of more than 50 feet in width.
8) Setback measured from building to property line.
9) " Oblique alignment" is defined as the intersection of the parallel face of one building by the corner angle of a second building where said angle is greater than 25 percent. 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,
Ordinance No. 1970
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.

WHEREAS, the City of Fontana, California ( the " City") is a municipal corporation, duly organized under the constitution and laws of the State of California; and WHEREAS, in December 2024 and February 2025, the State Building Standards Commission reviewed and approved the 2025 edition of the California Building Standards Code ( Title 24 of the California Code of Regulations); and WHEREAS, Health and Safety Code Sections 18938 and 17958 make the California Building Standards Code (" Code") applicable to all cities and counties throughout California, including the City of Fontana, 180 days after publication by the State Building Standards Commission or upon a later date established by the Building Standards Commission, which here is January 1, 2026, and WHEREAS, Health and Safety Code Section 18941. 5 provides that a City may establish more restrictive building standards if they are reasonably necessary due to local climatic, geological, or topographical conditions; and
WHEREAS, Health and Safety Code Section 17958. 5 permits cities to make modifications to the requirements contained in the California Building Standards Code if such modifications are found to be reasonably necessary because of local climatic, geographic, or topographic conditions, and
64 Ordinance No. 1975
WHEREAS, Health and Safety Code Section 17958. 7 requires that the City Council, before making modifications to such requirements, make an express finding that such modifications are reasonably necessary because of local climatic, geographic, or topographic conditions; and
WHEREAS, the City Council of the City of Fontana (" City Council") hereby 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; and
WHEREAS, 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; and
WHEREAS, on, the City Council conducted a duly noticed public hearing to consider and review the California Building Standards Codes and local amendments, at which time hearing testimony and evidence was presented to and considered by the City Council.
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 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.
C:P,
Ordinance No. 1975
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 1105. 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 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 1-15 Freeway and the 1-10 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 C'1;:
Ordinance No. 1975
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 ofthe 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 to the East, San Jacinto fault-- 3 miles to the East and Whittier - Elsinore 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 Ordinance No. 1975
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, J 103. 2, and J 104. 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
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.

Innovation & Technology
SUBJECT:
Video Management System Replacement
RECOMMENDATION:
1. Authorize the Purchasing Division to " Piggy -Back" from the Omnia Partners contract R250206) for the purchase and implementation of the Verkada Video Management System VMS) per Purchasing Policies and Procedure Manual 3. 1.5 (Cooperative Purchasing Agreement) to replace the City' s existing Hexagon Ocularis system, which has reached end of life and end of support.
2. Approve the purchase from VectorUSA of Rancho Cucamonga, CA in the amount of 735, 807. 81.
COUNCIL GOALS:
Improve public safety by utilizing other City programs to help reduce crime.
Operate in a businesslike manner by improving services through the effective use of technology.
Invest in the City' s infrastructure ( streets, sewers, parks, etc.) by maintaining and improving the City' s existing infrastructure.
DISCUSSION:
The City currently utilizes Hexagon' s Ocularis Video Management System ( VMS) to manage security camera footage across multiple facilities. Ocularis has reached end of life and end of support as of October 2025, meaning the software will no longer receive updates, patches, or manufacturer assistance. Continued reliance on unsupported software introduces operational and cybersecurity risks while limiting compatibility with newer camera technology. Additionally, the system relies on on - premise servers and storage that require ongoing maintenance and periodic replacement, adding to overall support costs.
To address these challenges, staff evaluated modern video management platforms and identified Verkada as the preferred replacement solution. Verkada provides a cloud - managed system that eliminates the need for on -premise video servers and storage, reducing hardware, power, and cooling costs as well as the IT resources required to maintain them. The cloud -based architecture also allows the City to add new cameras without expanding its server or storage footprint -an inherent limitation of the current system. Verkada' s centralized management console simplifies administration, while built- in redundancy and automatic software updates enhance reliability, cybersecurity, and system uptime.

Agenda #: D. Category: Consent Calendar
Verkada cameras also include an industry -leading ten- year warranty, significantly exceeding the coverage offered by most camera manufacturers. This extended warranty allows for more accurate long- term cost planning and reduces the need for replacement hardware and support contracts over the life of the system. Combined with the lower infrastructure overhead of a cloud - based platform, this results in substantial lifecycle savings compared to traditional on -premise solutions.
The transition to Verkada will also deliver major functional improvements, including high -resolution video, advanced analytics, motion and object - based search, and secure remote access from both desktop and mobile devices. These capabilities enhance situational awareness, improve investigative efficiency, and strengthen the City' s ability to safeguard its facilities and the public.
Staff recommend replacing approximately half of the City' s existing cameras during the current fiscal year to distribute costs over multiple years. Priority has been given to areas that would most benefit from Verkada' s analytics capabilities and to locations where existing cameras have degraded due to age, resulting in poor image quality. Replacements include:
Site No. of Cameras
Civic Center Campus 2
Fontana Park Aquatics Center 9
Fontana Community Senior Center 43
Metrolink Station 10
Police Department 95
Traffic Intersections 102
Procurement of the Verkada system will be completed through the Omnia Partners cooperative purchasing contract (# R250206) from their authorized partner. Utilizing this contract ensures competitive pricing, expedites acquisition, and allows the City to implement the new system without delay.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The fiscal impact associated with the approval of this item is $ 735, 807. 81 and is included in the 2025 26 adopted budget in the Hardware Replacement Program project 02621003- 102- B-8315. The recurring licensing and subscription costs associated with the Verkada VMS will be funded through the IT Department' s operation budget from account number 10226206 and no additional General Fund support will be required.
MOTION:
Approve staff recommendation.

COUNCIL GOALS:
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, supplies, equipment, and materials. 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 Public Works North Yard, located at 16440 Orange Way, serves as the city' s hazardous waste intake as well as equipment and material storage supply for public works operations. In addition to storage contained in the north yard, various city departments rent space from various storage facilities located throughout the city. To facilitate prompt repairs and service the demands of the businesses and residents of the city, additional storage capacity is needed.

Agenda #: J. Category: Consent Calendar
The North Yard is not capable of supporting the storage needs of the city and it is economically inefficient to expand the city' s use of privately owned storage facilities. Staff proposes acquisition of this property to resolve the ongoing growing demands of the city. Increased storage capacity will allow for more economic acquisitions of items needed for routine and specialized maintenance, including traffic signal poles, utility cabinets, park benches, light poles and other essential materials required for the daily upkeep of city assets.
The City and the Seller have negotiated a Purchase Agreement with the following proposed deal - points:
The City of Fontana would acquire the property for the price of $2,800, 000.
The City of Fontana and Seller Fontana Orange, LLC will equally split any/ all escrow fees as appropriate.
The City will have 60 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 sixty- 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 efficiently maintain the city' s growing list of assets and facilities.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The fiscal impact associated with the approval of this item is estimated to be $ 3,500, 000 ( including escrow costs, acquisition fees, and site improvements). The necessary budget adjustments will be included in the FY 25- 26 First Quarter Budget Report Fund 601 and 632.
MOTION:
Approve staff recommendation.
