AMENDMENT TO FONTANA MUNICIPAL CODE CHAPTER 30
(*Additions shown in underline, deletions shown in strikeout) ARTICLE IX. - OVERLAY DISTRICTS
DIVISION 1. - GENERALLY
Sec. 30-621. - Purpose.
The purpose of this article is to create overlay districts that establish additional use regulations and development standards for specific types of use and specific areas of the City requiring special consideration in the development process. The regulations established in this article for the overlay districts shall apply in addition to the regulations established for the underlying zone districts.
Sec. 30-622. - Overlay districts.
(a) Medical center overlay district. A district that may overlay any medical center complex. (b) Utility corridor overlay district. A district that is intended to provide for appropriate development within or near those areas containing easements for public utilities. (c) Hillside overlay district. A district that protects the public health and safety, minimizes environmental impacts, and requires development to conform to the natural topography of hillside areas.
(d) Auto center overlay district. A district that is intended to promote new car and truck sales adjacent to the 1-210 Freeway.
(e) Warehousing distribution/logistics ov erlay district (Sierra Avenue). A district that provides for the limited, well planned and orderly development of warehousing distribution/logistics uses on properties within the light industrial (M -1) zone as provided for in Section 30 -532 et seq. Unlike other overlay districts in this division, this overlay identifies a geographic area where such uses may be allowed subject to a separate zone change request to establish the overlay on one or more parcels eligible to receive it. (f) Valley business park overlay district. The intent of the valley business park overlay is to provide for a well -planned and orderly development of business park and warehousing distribution uses on parcels within the M -1 zone located on designated areas within the adopted overlay that are generally located on the south side of Valley Boulevard. (g) Emergency shelter overlay district. A district that provides for seamless incorporation of emergency, supportive, and transitional housing opportunities on specific properties within the light industrial (M-1) zoning district Light Industrial (I -L) and/ or General Industrial (I -G) general plan land use designations to house individuals at risk of homelessness with such needs for no more than a six -month period , as required by Government Code § 65583(a)(4) and 65583(a)(5).
36 (h)(R-4) overlay district. The intent of the R -4 overlay district is to provide areas for the potential development at the multi -family residential (R -4) density of 24.1 du/ac to 39 du/ac for multi -family development in close proximity to transit routes and convenience uses in recognition of the need for affordable housing.
DIVISION 7. EMERGENCY SHELTER OVERLAY DISTRICT
Sec. 30-651. Emergency shelter overlay district (ESO) regulations. (a) Applicability. The provisions of this division shall apply to light industrial (I-L) land use designations and specific plan industrial land use designations as specified in Figure Figure 1
37 (b) Relation to underlying zoning. The emergency shelter overlay district is a flexible designation that is intended to apply in conjunction with, or as an alternative to the provisions in the underlying zoning. When utilized in conjunction with the underlying zone, if the provisions of this division are in conflict with the provisions of the underlying zoning district, the provisions of this division shall apply. (c) Intent. The intent of the emergency shelter overlay district is to provide for supportive and transitional housing uses on specific properties within the light industrial(M-1) zoning district Light Industrial (I -L) and General Industrial (I -G) gen eral plan use designations. Additionally, the further intent of this overlay district is to allow emergency shelters without a conditional use permit or other discretionary permit in accordance with Government Code § 65583. Recognizing the need for available and affordable sites for establishment of emergency shelters and other transitional housing types outside of the traditional locations in commercial districts, the emergency shelter overlay district provides areas and districts for the developmen t of new emergency and supportive housing to be integrated with commercial and light industrial uses and existing social services throughout the City. The purpose of the designated boundaries (area of applicability) is to maximize the potential for provision of emergency shelter and support services throughout the City of Fontana. (d) Definitions.
Emergency shelters. The California Health and Safety Code (§ 50801(e)) defines "emergency shelter" as housing with minimal supportive services for homeless persons that is limited to occupancy of six months or less by a homeless person. No individual or household may be denied emergency shelter because of an inability to pay.
Single room occupancy. Typically, a single-room occupancy (SRO) unit is a multiple tenant building that houses one or two people in individual rooms (sometimes two rooms, or two rooms with a bathroom or half bathroom), or to the single room dwelling itself. SRO tenants typically share bathrooms and/or kitchens, while some SRO rooms may include kitchenettes, bathrooms, or half-baths. Most SRO units are small, with a gross floor area of less than 400 square feet. Each dwelling unit is restricted to occupancy by no more than two persons and is offered on a monthly rental basis or longer.
1.7 AC
38 Supportive housing. Under the housing element law, supportive housing is defined as housing with no limit on length of stay that is occupied by a target population, and that is linked to onsite or offsite services that assist the supportive housing resident in retaining the housing, improving his or her health status, and maximizing his or her ability to live and, when possible, work in the community (California Health and Safety Code § 50675.14(b)).
Transitional housing. The California Healt h and Safety Code (§ 50675.2) defines "transitional housing" and "transitional housing development" as buildings configured as rental housing developments, but operated under program requirements that call for the termination of assistance and recirculation of the assisted unit to another eligible program recipient at some predetermined future point in time, which shall be no more than six months. This definition of transitional housing does not encompass all transitional housing facilities, particularly those that operate as group quarters or community care facilities that charge fees rather than rents.
Sec. 30-652. Administrative site plan review required.
Any development proposal within the emergency shelter overlay district shall be subject to an administrative site plan review process pursuant to Article II, Division 10 et seq. of this Code.
Sec. 30-653. Emergency shelters.
The following standards shall be required for development or establishment of emergency shelters in the ESO district:

To remove the deed restriction, an owner may make a written request of the director, providing evidence that the ADU or JADU has in fact been eliminated. The director may then determine whether the evidence supports the claim that the ADU or JADU has been eliminated. Appeal may be taken from the director's determination consistent with other provisions of this Code. If the ADU or JADU is not entirely physically removed but is only eliminated by virtue of having a necessary component of an ADU or a JADU removed, the remaining structure and improvements must otherwise comply with applicable provisions of this Code.
e. The deed restriction is enforceable by the dDirector or his or her designee for the benefit of the city. Failure of the property owner to comply with the deed restriction may result in legal action against the property owner, and the city is authorized to obtain any remedy available to it at law or equity, including, but not limited to, obtaining an injunction enjoining the use of the ADU or JADU in violation of the recorded restrictions or abatement of the illegal unit. 60 (9) Reserved.

71 Exhibit A to Amendment Number 1
dated February 3, 2026.
Scope Expansion Understanding
Per conversations with the Client in late October, the scope of the park project has increased to include the addition of an approximate 15,000 SF above ground skatepark (in the red area referenced in Exhibit A below), and a 20,000 SF pump track (the yellow area in Exhibit A below), to the original pickleball court scope (shown in the middle of Exhibit A below). It is assumed that the surface material for the pump track will be asphalt.
In addition to the skate park and pump track, per conversations with the Client in late December, Kimley-Horn should provide a conceptual design for the entire Seville park space. The scope will include the design and placement of a 1,000 SF operation building to serve as an operator’s office, provide storage, include a sport equipment merchandise area, and public restroom. The building will also include an interior restroom for the operator’s private use. The proposed park elements mentioned above are to be fenced, with their only entrance being through a main gate at the operator’s building. The design will include new pathways to connect all proposed programming.
The existing restroom building will be demolished. Existing Park elements including the basketball court, playground, shade structure, and parking lots will be assessed and redesigned as needed to align with the overall park concept.
It is important to note that during demolition of the existing amphitheater, the adjacent maintenance vehicle parking area was demolished. This scope includes the design of a new maintenance vehicle parking area, and it is understood that there is flexibility in the design of this area as the driveway approach will need reconstruction for ADA compliance allowing us to shift it in one direction or the other as needed.
The City requests that Kimley-Horn’s scope expand to include conceptual design of the above mentioned amenities. Full PS&E preparation in the scope will be provided only for the pickleball courts, associated fencing, associated parking, maintenance parking, and ADA compliance needs specific to the pickleball courts (Phase I). Kimley-Horn understands that the pump track, skate park, and other park enhancements will be constructed separately under a Phase II contract.
Total construction budget for the full park design is $6 million dollars.
For ADA compliance concerns, it is understood that tree root removal or tree removal in its entirety can be proposed for these improvements. The Kimley-Horn team will note in the specifications and plans that all proposed tree and/or root removals must be reviewed by the Public Works Maintenance Team for assessment prior to continuing with improvements.
It is also understood that rerouting the sidewalk and introducing retaining curbs or grading will be acceptable given the expanded scope. While cost and budget are still a priority, the expanded scope does permit more flexibility in the design to ensure all future uses are accounted for with the Pickleball Court construction.
This scope does not include public outreach.
Per Exhibit A, it is understood that the park property limit is just north of the pathway in the Pacific Electric Trail. The Pacific Electric Trail is wholly owned by SBCTA and the City wants to stay out of the PE Trail property to alleviate any needs for obtaining permits or license agreements from SBCTA.
72 Exhibit A
Below is an outline of the Additional Services requested to be added to this contract:
Task 1: Expanded Topographic Survey
Our survey team will expand the limits of their field work to include the entire area shown below in Exhibit B.
Exhibit B
Task 2: Expanded Kick-off Meeting, Data Collection, Pre-Design, & Schematic Design The goal of this phase will be to further investigate the project site and develop preliminary concept designs that meet the intent of the project goals and community objectives. We will evaluate the existing site conditions (i.e. topography, access, utilities, etc.), further investigate Client project requirements, identify, and evaluate existing design plans for integration, and refine the desired program elements shared by City stakeholders. We understand that no public outreach will be a part of this project. When complete, this phase will result in an overall conceptual vision for the park, including the following elements; a skatepark, pump track, operator’s building, pickleball courts, maintenance parking and basketball court.
These concept plan deliverables for the park design will be electronic, and include illustrative documents that will guide future improvements. Milestone tasks and deliverables for this phase are as follows:
· Review applicable studies, concepts, existing data sources, and any other work done to 73 date in the interest of this project.
· Existing Park components including the existing parking, playground, and basketball courts will be assessed and discussed with City staff to confirm design direction. · The proposed program elements noted above will be included in the project kick-off meeting with the Design team and City staff (virtual). This meeting’s main objectives will be to discuss opportunities and constraints and review data received by the City from community stakeholders. The goal of the meeting will be to determine the preferred elements and style for the project elements, for all proposed amenities.
As a follow-up to the design coordination/input meeting with the City, the Design Team will evaluate comments and feedback for incorporation into a refined conceptual site plan that includes the desired integrated skatepark, pump track, operator building, pickleball courts, maintenance parking and refined existing park elements as determined during initial coordination meetings with the City stakeholders. The design concept will strive to reflect a functional feel that is both uniquely intriguing in nature and well-integrated into the neighborhood context.
This task includes one (1) meeting to review Schematic Design Plans with city staff (virtual meeting). After this review, a schematic design level cost estimate for the park design will be developed. Up to two (2) rounds of revisions will be provided to these schematic design documents.
Task 3: Expanded Noise Study
In addition to the proposed pickleball courts, Kimley-Horn will expand the noise study to be inclusive of the conceptual skate park, bicycle pump track, and basketball court. Short-term reference noise levels will be collected with a Type I sound level meter for a similar bicycle pump track and skate park facility within South California. Skate park and bicycle pump track noise levels will be incorporated into the pickleball court SoundPLAN 3-dimensional noise model. Total combined noise levels will be addressed and analyzed for potential impacts to the adjacent uses and will be assessed against the City of Fontana Noise Ordinance.
One round of revisions to the noise model will be provided based on feedback to the initial concept design, and the initial noise findings. The final deliverable will reflect predicted noise levels that result from the final concept design layout.
Task 4: Expanded Concept, Design Development, and Construction Document Scope:
Concepts will be prepared to support concepts for the overall park design including; skatepark, pump track, pickleball courts, maintenance parking, fencing, new pathways, and redesign of existing parking lots, basketball court, and amenity areas as determined during initial meetings with City stakeholders. These 30% level plans will include the skate park and pump track layouts as shown in the concepts. The design intent will be to maintain the existing drainage patterns.
The scope will also be expanded to look holistically at the accessibility routes throughout the park, including new accessibility routes connecting all proposed park programming with associated fencing and gates. It is understood that the only accessible route constructed during Phase l will be to connect the proposed pickleball courts with the existing parking lot to the west. Phase l will also include the design of maintenance only parking spaces in a new parking lot directly adjacent to the pickleball facility.
In addition to accessibility, the scope will look at the overall park concept design elements in relation to grading and utilities to determine additional routes for connectivity and grading of the park for a cohesive site. Utility conflicts will be identified and coordinated with the placement of park facilities.
The expanded scope will be broken into three deliverable iterations, and will include rounds of comments and assumptions as noted in the original contract:
74 Task 4.1 Expanded Concept
The concept design will propose accessibility, fencing, grading, and utility design across all proposed amenity concepts and show proposed programming including; skatepark, pump track, operator’s building, pickleball courts, maintenance parking, and refined existing park elements as needed. A concept design level cost estimate for the park design will be developed. Up to two (2) rounds of revisions will be provided to these concept design documents.
Task 4.2 Expanded Design Development
Once the final design concept drawings are approved, the team will move into design development drawings for the items that are a part of this scope, beyond the conceptual phase, as described in the scope expansion understanding above. This will include the development of the accessibility from the existing parking lot to the proposed pickleball facility, and the proposed maintenance parking area.
Task 4.3 Expanded Construction Documents
90% and 100% level construction documents will be prepared for accessibility from the existing parking lot to the proposed pickleball facility and finalize the design of the proposed maintenance parking area.
Fee and billing
Kimley-Horn will perform the services described in the above Scope of Services on a lump sum basis.

DISCUSSION:
The American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) was signed into law on March 11, 2021, providing additional relief to address the continued impact of COVID-19 on the economy, public health, state and local governments, individuals, and businesses. ARPA funding of $1.9 trillion provided for $362 billion in flexible fiscal aid to state and local governments in America under the State & Local Fiscal Recovery Funds (SLFRF). The City of Fontana was allocated $50.3 million in ARPA SLFRF funds. The U.S.
Department of the Treasury issued an Interim Final Rule in May 2021, and the Final Rule in January 2022, to implement the Coronavirus State and Local Fiscal Recovery Funds established under ARPA.
On March 8, 2022, the City Council approved the original ARPA Expenditure Plan (Plan). On September 13, 2022, the City Council subsequently approved a revised Plan which properly categorized existing projects per the Final Rule and eliminated projects that were determined to be ineligible. As all projects were determined eligible in concept for ARPA funding, staff has worked diligently with the City Attorney’s office and HdL ECONSolutions ensuring that all project details met ARPA Final Rule requirements. Currently, all projects have received a final legal determination as to City of Fontana Printed on 2/19/2026Page 1 of 3

their eligibility.
Current Plan
The current Plan reflects expenditures in four primary Federal Eligible Use Categories. and the table below reflects the current budget by category per the Treasury reporting requirements.
There are no proposed plan revisions for the current reporting period. All projects have been fully obligated meaning committed by contract, purchase order, or interagency agreement as required by Treasury Guidelines as of December 31, 2024. The city must expend all SLFRF funds by December 31, 2026.
Leveraged Projects
The original Plan approved by Council included $18.0 million in projects under the Revenue Loss category. However, per the Final Rule, only $10.0 million in funding was available under the standard allowance, leaving $8.0 million in projects unfunded. To address this shortfall, the City identified ARPA-eligible projects that had initially been funded by the General Fund and reprogrammed them to be funded by ARPA instead. This reallocation freed up or leveraged General Fund resources, which were then used to cover the previously unfunded projects. The leveraged projects include a Police Department helicopter ($3.0 million) and various pavement rehabilitation projects ($5.0 million).
Plan Update
As of December 31, 2025, $46.98 million has been expended. Since all projects have been obligated City of Fontana Printed on 2/19/2026Page 2 of 3

Leveraged Project: Accela 3,406,636 3,406,636 Public Health & Economic Response This is a new project and it is recommended that it is funded in the amount of $3.6 million in an effort to leverage funds for projects originally requested in the Revenue Loss category.
Complete Complete 3,406,636 In 2021 the Innovation and Technology Department began efforts to improve business processes in the land management and permitting systems. During the pandemic, it became clear that paper processes were no longer an effective way of serving our residents or business partners. The city wished to replace the existing solution with an improved digital solution to meet the needs of city employees, residents, and businesses. Over the course of a year, city staff reviewed processes and gathered requirements for a new solution.
A new solution was selected in late 2021 to help improve processes in the land management and permitting system space. Throughout 2022 the IT department has continued to lead this project, working alongside almost every city department to ensure the new solution will be tailored to meet the city of Fontana’s needs in this space. This project has been a 3-year effort, and we are now nearing the tail-end of the project. The new, improved solution will seamlessly connect with surrounding systems, assist customers with an easy-to-use interface, ensure city employees process requests in a consistent and efficient manner, and provide dynamic insights to internal operations. The new solution went live July 2023 and has required some improvements/enhancements. This project has been completed.
Leveraged Project: Fontana 311 2,398,355 2,075,880 Public Health & Economic Response This is a new project and it is recommended that it is funded in the amount of $3.2 million in an effort to leverage funds for projects originally requested in the Revenue Loss category.
In Progress 12/1/2026 2,398,355 The City of Fontana developed and implemented the Fontana 311 system to improve communication and streamline services to its Residents and Businesses by bringing all customer interactions to one central location.
The Fontana 311 system will be a one-stop shop for businesses and residents to file complaints, get answers to questions, keep residents informed and overall improve citizen engagement. The Innovation and Technology department led the project to develop this new system and was sponsored by our Communications and Marketing office. Throughout 2022 and 2023, there has been extensive work with almost every city department to ensure all city services are captured within the application.
Residents will be able to call 311, use a website, or our 311 app to make that first request and then see it through to completion. The Fontana 311 system will allow staff to track requests from initiation to completion. Fontana 311 offers digital government services and makes interacting with government a much smoother process for our residents and businesses. The Fontana 311 system went live in February of 2023 and is now entering phase 2 of the project, which will bring an IVR with AI to assist our residents when they call for services. The project is in progress and is expected to be completed by December 2026.

TECHNICAL APPROACH
All employees utilize security badges for access to the building which is also tracked and recorded. Our production imaging servers are air gapped and backed up daily only on an encrypted local drive which is purged in accordance with DoD Standard (DoD 5220.22-M) upon project completion. Our key employees are background verified, HIPPA Trained, CA Live Scanned, and CLETS Certified. (California Law Enforcement). Security, experience, and adherence to procedure is what makes our service offer unique.
We bear sole and complete responsibility for all work we execute.
Below is our procedure for tracking inventory once documents/boxes are picked up from a client’s location.
Record Transfer Preparation – All boxes will have a Tamper Security Seal to ensure privacy immediately upon pickup. All boxes will be inventoried by folder and series within each box, provide a barcode label, and finalize the box count prior to departing.
Document Control and Manifest Creation – We use a specialized application to not only track all records, but we have a very stringent methodology policy we adhere to internally as well making sure all procedures are followed every step of the way. Tracking reports are generated to include all of the information pertaining to the job. The use of tamperproof seals provides an extra layer of security to keep your data safe.
Secure Record Transfer Service – All pickups and deliveries will be performed by at least 2 staff which have gone through a background check as well. In order to keep the chain of custody, delivery and pickup scenarios will not make any extra stops while transit with a client’s data. If any issue arises with transport, a secondary team is on standby to assist right away.
Storage Center when Receiving – Our procedure is to have all boxes coming in to be counted and verified 2 times. Utilizing barcodes and our 2-person process ensures quality as soon as client data arrives. Any damage or discrepancies will be reported immediately and addressed immediately.
Chain of Custody Verification – Once the data is received, another check is done on all seals of the boxes.
Once security seals are removed, we verify contents again. If at any time any security issues happen to arise, clients will be notified immediately.
Audit Tracking & Quality Control Reporting – Every employee is mandated to enter all quality control, monitoring, and progress into our tracking system. Reporting is constantly being done to ensure job is on track.
All scanning is done with an operator standing next to the scanner to make sure all pages are scanned accurately and to check for double feed errors. The scanners are capable of scanning Bi-Tonal Black and White, 255 Gray Scale, Full 24-bit Color. Scanner software can output the image to all major file formats.
Kofax VRS lmage Enhancement Software is utilized to provide the optimal quality image - De-speckling, De- 89

skewing, image rotation, Background suppression, Adaptive threshold, Edge enhancement, and gray tone filtering. Scanner Technicians live monitor the size, resolution and format of each document scanned using the tags/markers placed by the Document Preparation team. The files are always processed together to ensure the documents remain in the same order. Standard documents will be scanned in PDF, bi-tonal (black and White) at 300 dpi, large format documents at 300 dpi, and for documents that have been reduced, 400 dpi. Documents containing color will! Be scanned in color at 200 dpi or 300dpi, using lossless compression .JPG file formatting. Our process of creating PDF images, other file types, and indexing is as follows.
Document Preparation – Scanning sample boxes are an effective way to find out certain details of the specific job. These samples will determine the most accurate and efficient method to prepare the folder to be scanned. All staff will be trained in the job specific details and are assigned one single box at a time.
Items prepared prior to scanning including removing paperclips/staples, unfolding, utilizing copier technology to maximize scan quality, combine small documents and attached images, and anything we are not 100% clear on, we will place on the side and address with the client to ensure accuracy. If required, we are able to reassemble all data just as we picked it up with the exclusion of staples and paper clips.
Quality Assurance Document Preparation Verification – Our data sheets are updated in real time and if any problem is found, the document is sent back for reprocessing. The tracking report is updated once again, and the corrected data moves on to the next stage.
Scanning High Resolution Digital Imaging – Only the best technology available is used to provide the best outcome of a quality image. Scanning staff will be monitoring each image to ensure image is scanned correctly and no pages are double fed. The utilization of Kofax VRS Software allows for additional cleaning to be done such as de-speckle, de-skew, image rotation, background suppression, edge enhancement, gray tone filtering, blank page removal, and much more if need be.
Quality Assurance Image Quality – One of the most important parts of this process is having a human being review documents for accuracy and not solely rely on software and technology. Image quality is checked at multiple levels to ensure all images are acceptable and do not need to be reprocessed.
Indexing Verification – Staff are trained to manually index one image at a time per box to ensure accuracy every step of the way. Protocols and additional software is in place to make sure indexing errors do not occur such as misspelling or double keying entries.
Quality Assurance Indexing – Taking this process to the next level, we will compare the indexed data with the re-keyed data. If any mismatches are found, they are sent back and reprocessed until it is matched.
Data validation is performed utilizing character mix, date ranges, quantity ranges, including database lookups as well.

File Transfer and Upload – Once documents are ready for transfer/upload, data will be transferred to a file server with your encrypted data. From there instant access is available via VPN to search your data to view images and indexes, along with being able to start internal quality control as well. If encrypted hard drive is preferred, this exists as an alternative as well.
Return and Delivery of Completed Job – Once all files have been reviewed and cleared for approval, data will be repacked, and security labels placed once again. Delivery procedures are followed exactly how our pick-up procedure is, which is listed above with the focus on reliability and security.

City of Fontana 2
Description and Approach
CPS understands the importance of selecting a quality firm to manage and execute the process of scanning historic records which may include maps, drawings, and all other media types available for storing information. With CPS being the experts in Laserfiche Document Management, many special cities and government organizations have turned to us to handle their document scanning needs as they have tried to make it by with other vendors who could not perform to the expectations. We understand the attention expected by cities to produce quality images, on demand, 100% open communication and making sure every step of the project is going exactly as planned.
Scanning Conversion Services Process
Secure Document Conversion Facility – Enabled with only the highest security and technology available, you can be assured your data will be safe and secure from the moment your data leaves your location, until we safely return your data after the job has been completed.
Record Transfer Preparation – All boxes will have a Tamper Security Seal to ensure privacy immediately upon pickup. All boxes will be inventoried by folder and series within each box, provide a barcode label, and finalize the box count prior to departing.
Document Control and Manifest Creation – We use a specialized application to not only track all records, but we have a very stringent methodology policy we adhere to internally as well making sure all procedures are followed every step of the way. Tracking reports are generated to 125
City of Fontana 3
include all of the information pertaining to the job. The use of tamperproof seals provides an extra layer of security to keep your data safe.
Secure Record Transfer Service – All pickups and deliveries will be performed by at least 2 staff which have gone through a background check as well. In order to keep the chain of custody, delivery and pickup scenarios will not make any extra stops while transit with a client’s data. If any issue arises with transport, a secondary team is on standby to assist right away.
Storage Center when Receiving – Our procedure is to have all boxes coming in to be counted and verified 2 times. Utilizing barcodes and our 2-person process ensures quality as soon as client data arrives. Any damage or discrepancies will be reported immediately and addressed immediately.
Chain of Custody Verification – Once the data is received, another check is done on all seals of the boxes. Once security seals are removed, we verify contents again. If at any time any security issues happen to arise, clients will be notified immediately.
Audit Tracking & Quality Control Reporting – Every employee is mandated to enter all quality control, monitoring, and progress into our tracking system. Reporting is constantly being done to ensure job is on track.
Document Preparation – Scanning sample boxes are an effective way to find out certain details of the specific job. These samples will determine the most accurate and efficient method to prepare the folder to be scanned. All staff will be trained in the job specifics and details and are assigned one single box at a time. Items prepared prior to scanning including removing paperclips/staples, unfolding, utilizing copier technology to maximize scan quality, combine small documents and attached images, and anything we are not 100% clear on, we will place on the side and address with the client to ensure accuracy. If required, we are able to reassemble all data just as we picked it up with the exclusion of staples and paper clips.
Quality Assurance Document Preparation Verification – Our data sheets are updated in real time and if any problem is found, the document is sent back for reprocessing. The tracking report is updated once again, and the corrected data moves on to the next stage.
Scanning High Resolution Digital Imaging – Only the best technology available is used to provide the best outcome of a quality image. Scanning staff will be monitoring each image to ensure image is scanned correctly and no pages are double fed. The utilization of Kofax VRS Software allows for additional cleanup to be done such as de-speckle, de-skew, image rotation, background suppression, edge enhancement, gray tone filtering, blank page removal, and much more if need be.
Quality Assurance Image Quality – One of the most important parts of this process is having a human being review documents for accuracy and not solely rely on software and technology.
Image quality is checked at multiple levels to ensure all images are acceptable and do not need to be reprocessed.
126
City of Fontana 4
Indexing Verification – Staff are trained to manually index one image at a time per box to ensure accuracy every step of the way. Protocols and additional software is in place to make sure indexing errors do not occur such as misspelling or double keying entries.
Quality Assurance Indexing – Taking this process to the next level, we will compare the indexed data with the re-keyed data. If any mismatches are found, they are sent back and reprocessed until it is matched. Data validation is performed utilizing character mix, date ranges, quantity ranges, including database lookups as well.
File Transfer and Upload – Once documents are ready for transfer/upload, data will be transferred to a file server with your encrypted data. From there instant access is available via VPN to search your data to view images and indexes, along with being able to start internal quality control as well. If encrypted hard drive is preferred, this exists as an alternative as well.
Return and Delivery of Completed Job – Once all files have been reviewed and cleared for approval, data will be repacked, and security labels placed once again. Delivery procedures are followed exactly how our pick-up procedure is, which is listed above with the focus on reliability and security.

Agenda #: G. Category: Consent Calendar
FROM:
Police Department
SUBJECT:
Approve the Sole-Source purchase with Motorola Solutions for the upgrade, installation, and service agreement of the License Plate Camera Project.
RECOMMENDATION:
1. Authorize procurement of the Automated License Plate Reader (ALPR) from Motorola Solutions utilizing Purchasing Policy and Procedure Manual 3.1.5 Non-Competitive Proposal - Single Source/Sole Source.
2. Approve the purchase of the Motorola Solutions upgrade, installation, and service agreement for the ALPR in the amount of $1,052,673.97.
3. Approve and authorize the City Manager to approve the purchase and agreement with Motorola Solutions and any necessary change orders to complete the project not to exceed 10% of the award amount.
COUNCIL GOALS:
· Improve public safety by increasing operational efficiency, visibility and availability. · Operate in a businesslike manner by improving services through the effective use of technology.
· Practice sound fiscal management by living within our means while investing in the future.
DISCUSSION:
In 2017, Vigilant Solutions, now Motorola, was awarded a contract to install Automated License Plate Reader (ALPR) cameras throughout the City of Fontana. The initial deployment was completed in three phases. Several cameras installed during Phases One and Two now require replacement due to damage caused by environmental conditions. Additionally, the Phase One and Two cameras will no longer be supported after March 2026, as the technology has advanced, and replacement parts are becoming increasingly difficult to obtain.
ALPR cameras are a critical investigative tool for the Police Department, providing timely and reliable vehicle information to assist with a wide range of criminal investigations. Due to the existing infrastructure and system design, Vigilant/Motorola cameras are considered a sole-source solution.
These cameras are specifically designed for multi-lane intersections and feature wide-angle capabilities that allow for the capture of multiple lanes of traffic, unlike other camera systems used in different locations throughout the city.
All replacement cameras, wiring, software, and associated components will be installed by MotorolaCity of Fontana Printed on 2/19/2026Page 1 of 2 powered by Legistar™
129
File #: 26-0770 Agenda Date: 2/24/2026
Agenda #: G. Category: Consent Calendar
All replacement cameras, wiring, software, and associated components will be installed by Motorola or its approved vendors. The proposed equipment is fully compatible with the Phase Three ALPR cameras from the original installation, ensuring system continuity and operational consistency.
Motorola has submitted Quote No. 3448566 in the amount of $1,052,673.97. This cost includes camera hardware, extended warranties, licensing fees, and other associated items as detailed in the quote. The Police Department recognizes the ALPR system as a valuable asset and seeks to maintain uninterrupted access to ALPR data while remaining fiscally responsible.
FISCAL IMPACT:
A request in the amount of $1,100,000 from Federal Asset Seizure Funds (fund 223) is included in the 2025/2026 mid-year report. Funds to be appropriated to project number 40100007-223-A-8130.
Should service demands exceed budgeted amounts, additional funding may be requested through the appropriate budget adjustment process.
In fiscal year 2031/2032, the department will be requesting an increase of $48,000.00 recurring funds for Innovation and Technology to cover projected inflationary increases related to camera licensing and software subscriptions. These funds will be incorporated into the budget upon confirmation that the cameras will continue to be utilized.
MOTION:
Approve Staff Recommendations.
