SUBJECT: SECOND READING AND ADOPTION OF ORDINANCE NO. 2087 AMENDING THE GLENDORA MUNICIPAL CODE TITLE 1 CUSTODY AND USE OF THE OFFICIAL SEAL AND OTHER INSIGNIA, SECTION 12.020 OFFICIAL SEAL AND CITY LOGO
RECOMMENDATION
That the City Council:
1. Adopt on second reading Ordinance No. 2087 entitled, “AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL AMENDING THE GLENDORA MUNICIPAL CODE TITLE 1 CUSTODY AND USE OF THE OFFICIAL SEAL AND OTHER INSIGNIAS, SECTION 12.020 OFFICIAL SEAL AND CITY LOGO.”
STRATEGIC FOCUS AREAS
Goal 4: Enhance and Modernize the Organization (EMO)
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The Glendora Municipal Code 1.12 establishes the regulations that ensure that the City seal, logos and other insignias are used on official City documents and for official City business and not for private or commercial uses.
As part of the 2023-2025 Two-Year Strategic Plan adopted on April 11, 2023, several of the strategic objectives focused on the development and enhancement of the City brand, one of which was to develop a City of Glendora logo.
On March 12, 2024, a new City of Glendora wordmark and insignias were presented and approved by the City Council by a 4-1 vote. With this approval, an amendment to the Glendora Municipal Code to include the new brand wordmark, and insignias is required. For this reason, and in order to ensure that these new City of Glendora wordmarks and insignias are utilized for proper purposes, and that unauthorized, deceptive, or fraudulent use be made unlawful, staff recommends that the City Council adopt the proposed ordinance (Attachment A) on second reading.
LEGISLATIVE HISTORY / PREVIOUS ACTIONS
In 2019, the Glendora City Council by a 4-0 vote adopted Ordinance No. 2037 which created Glendora Municipal Code section 1.12 Custody and use of official seal and other insignia to remove potential ambiguity regarding the use of existing City seal and insignias by third-parties.
On March 12, 2024, the Glendora City Council by a 4-1 vote, approved a new brand wordmark and insignias.
On May 28, 2024, the Glendora City Council by a unanimous vote conducted the introduction and first reading of Ordinance No. 2087.

DISCUSSION
Analysis
With the adoption of the 2023-2025 Two-Year Strategic Plan on April 11, 2023 and several of the adopted strategic objectives focused on the development and enhancement of the City brand. In order to facilitate conversations on these objectives, proposals to develop a new brand for the City of Glendora were requested and on September 12, 2023, the City Council awarded a contract to JPW Communications, a southern California based firm specializing in government communications and branding, to conduct a Brand Assessment, Design, and Rollout. JPW Communications is comprised of marketing, design, and communication professionals, all with prior government experience themselves, has worked with over 60 local government agencies in California on developing branding and messaging strategies since 2015 and provides comprehensive research, assessment, and development processes that help identify key decision markers.
This partnership allowed for a collaborative approach with a goal to balance the city’s rich history with its future aspirations, attract new businesses, and enhance quality of life for the residents and businesses that call Glendora home. It incorporated comprehensive research, assessments, and development processes, stakeholder input and helped identify key decision markers. JPW utilized a 5-phase approach for the branding process since community branding work takes a unique mix of discovery, strategic thinking, design excellence, project management skills and political acumen to create an authentic brand that reflects the community.
Approach
Phase 1 – Conduct Research
JPW conducted thorough research of the agency, the community, and its stakeholders to establish a holistic understanding of Glendora. During this phase, JPW sought input to uncover the perceptions, realities and aspirations for Glendora in order to define its true brand DNA.
During this phase, JPW utilized a mix of qualitative and quantitative research methods that included:
Community familiarization tour
Brand material audit/environmental scan
Competitive analysis
Demographic research
SWOT analysis with key city project team
1:1 Interviews with key stakeholders (12 interviews)
Community survey
Phase 2 – Develop Strategy
Once the research was complete, JPW drafted a research findings and insight report that made sense of all the research pieces. This became the backbone for the development of a fresh brand narrative for the city as well as a creative brief that would be used to guide the design of a new community mark.
Phase 3 – Design Identity
One consensus was achieved on the research insights, brand narrative, creative brief and design concept, JPW began working on a one-of-a-kind hand lettered wordmark that would be as unique as the community itself. This treatment harkened back to Glendora’s founding in an inviting manner that welcomes all to return, rethink or reimagine Glendora’s future.
The City wordmark(s), logo(s), and other insignia(s) are set forth below:
City of Glendora Wordmark City of Glendora Insignias
Item #10. Page 2
Meeting Date: 6/11/2024 / Packet Page #: 494
Staff Report Page 3 of 4
The City seal, logos and other insignias are used on official City documents and for official City business.
They can also be found on publications for City-sponsored events, as well as events that the City cosponsors with outside organizations. The City endorses many programs and events throughout Glendora, and adopting regulations for the use of the City seal and logos will eliminate the appearance of a City endorsement for programs or events the City does not wish to be affiliated with.
As there is no intent for the City seal or logos to be used for private or commercial uses, adopting these regulations will eliminate uncertainty as to how the City seal and logos are to be used. For that reason, and in order to ensure that the City seal and logos are utilized for proper purposes and that unauthorized, deceptive, or fraudulent use be made unlawful, staff recommends the following:
1. Adopt on second reading Ordinance No. 2087 entitled, “AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY
COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF GLENDORA, CALIFORNIA, AMENDING SECTION
1.12.020(B) OF THE GLENDORA MUNICIPAL CODE RELATING TO THE CUSTODY AND USE OF OFFICIAL CITY LOGO AND OTHER INSIGNIAS.”
FISCAL IMPACT
The proposed amendment to the Glendora Municipal Code is not anticipated to have any fiscal impact.

ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION
In accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), amending the Glendora Municipal Code to add a section relating to the custody and use of official seal and other insignia is not subject to environmental review under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). Under Section 15378(b)(2) and (b)(5), continued administrative activities and organization activities that will not result in a direct or indirect physical change in the environment are not CEQA projects.

FROM: COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT DISTRICT(S): 5
SUBJECT: CONSIDERATION OF A LICENSE AGREEMENT TO EXTEND THE USE OF AN EXISTING WIRELESS COMMUNICATION FACILITY ON CITY OWNED PROPERTY AT 1245 SAGA
STREET, GLENDORA
RECOMMENDATION
That the City Council:
1. Authorize the City Manager to Execute a License Agreement with STC One LLC, registered in California as Tower Company One LLC, to extend the operation of an existing Wireless Communication Facility on City Owned Property at 1245 Saga Street (8636-025-908).
STRATEGIC FOCUS AREAS
Goal 1: Implement Strategic Economic Development (ISED) Goal 2: Maintain Financial Stability and Sustainability (MFSS)
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Telecommunication facilities (often referred to as “cell sites”) are permitted on City-owned property with approval of a Conditional Use Permit (CUP), as prescribed in §21.03.100(D) of the Glendora Municipal Code (GMC), and with approval from the City Council of a License Agreement for use of City-owned land.
A cell site currently exists and operates on City-owned land at 1245 Saga Street. The cell site is located at the eastern end of Saga Street behind two city owned water reservoirs (Attachment A). The original agreement (Attachment B) was executed in 2001 and expired in 2022. The cell site has continued to operate as permitted under the original agreement on a month-to-month basis. After negotiating terms, a new license agreement has been prepared for City Council’s consideration (Attachment C). The initial term of the Agreement is for a period of five years, with options for four, five-year extensions for a total license period of twenty-five years. The initial license fee is Thirty-Three Thousand, Six Hundred Dollars ($33,600) per year, with an annual increase fixed at 3.5% per year.
LEGISLATIVE HISTORY / PREVIOUS ACTIONS
The Planning Commission adopted a Negative Declaration for this project pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act as recommended by the Zoning Review Board at their meeting of November 9, 2001.
Under the approval of Minor Conditional Use Permit (“MCUP”) 01-16 and Variance 01-19 granted by the City in December of 2001, the Original Agreement was effective January 2, 2002 through January 1, 2022 and continues to be applicable on a month-to-month basis pursuant to Section 2.03(d) of the Original Agreement.
DISCUSSION
The City of Glendora maintains eleven separate agreements authorizing the use of City-owned property for cellular telecommunication facilities. The locations include public parks, water, and maintenance facilities throughout the community. These agreements are important as they provide cell phone service to Item #11. Page 1
Meeting Date: 6/11/2024 / Packet Page #: 500
Staff Report Page 2 of 2
the community and generate revenue for the City in the form of rental payments. In total, nearly Four Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($450,000) in revenue is generated annually benefiting the City’s General Fund.
The proposed Agreement is for an existing cell site. The subject site is referred to as the Hidden Springs Reservoir site and located at 1245 Saga Street (Attachment A). The ground area utilized by the wireless facility is approximately four hundred forty square feet (440 sq. ft.). To minimize the visibility of the tower it includes pine branch treatment as a camouflage tactic, in addition there are two water reservoirs at the location which further screen the cell site from public view.
The Original Agreement (Attachment B) expired in January 1, 2022. Section 2.03(d) of the Original Agreement provides that use of the site may continue on a month-to-month basis. The cell tower owner would like to continue the operation long term and desires to enter into a renewed Agreement. Terms of the proposed License Agreement (Attachment C) are as follows:
Parties to the License Agreement: City of Glendora and STC One LLC; Initial term of five years;
Four, five-year renewal options, for a total (including initial term) of 25 possible years; Initial License Fee of $2,800 per month or ($33,600/year); Annual increase to license fee of 3.5% as compared to previous year; If an additional carrier co-locates on the tower, City approval will be required and rent will increase by 50%, also subject to the 3.5% annual increase;
A one-time administration fee of $5,500 is due from STC One LLC within 45 days of executed Agreement to cover staff and legal costs associated with negotiation of the Agreement.
FISCAL IMPACT
License Agreement will generate $33,600 in the first 12 months. Thereafter, annual revenue will increase by 3.5%.
ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION
The Planning Commission adopted a Negative Declaration for construction and operation of the cell site pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act as recommended by the Zoning Review Board at their meeting of November 9, 2001.

Following City approval of Minor Conditional Use Permit (“MCUP”) 01-16 and Variance 01-19 granted by the City in December 2001, City and Cox PCS Assets, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, the original predecessor-in-interest to Licensee, entered into that certain Cellular Antenna Space Lease and Provisions for Access dated January 2, 2002 (the “Original Agreement”), whereby City leased portions of the Property (the “Premises,” as defined therein) to Licensee for the purpose of constructing, operating and maintaining a cellular site (as defined therein). The term of the Original Agreement (inclusive of the extension periods provided for therein) expired on January 1, 2022, at which point the Original Agreement continued in effect on a month-to-month holdover tenancy basis pursuant to Section 2.03(d) of the Original Agreement until such holdover tenancy was terminated by the City effective as of the Effective Date herein.
The Parties acknowledge and agree that their entering into this Agreement shall be deemed to constitute City’s termination of such holdover tenancy and that Licensee waives any right to notice of termination of such holdover tenancy from City.
C. The Parties now desire to enter into a new agreement, on the terms and conditions set forth herein, to authorize Licensee to license a portion of the Property (the “Licensed Premises,” as defined herein) for purposes of continuing to operate and maintain its Wireless Telecommunications Facility (as defined herein) on the Property, subject to the terms hereof and ongoing compliance with applicable conditions of approval of MCUP 01-16 and Variance 01-19.
AGREEMENT
NOW THEREFORE, this Agreement is entered by and between the City and Licensee effective as of the Effective Date listed above.

Licensee shall obtain and maintain any and all applicable approvals or permissions required by the Los Angeles County Flood Control District, as well as any and all approvals or permissions required by any other holder of an interest in the Premises. Failure to do so shall constitute a default of Licensee for purposes of Section 21 of this Agreement. City agrees to reasonably cooperate, at no expense to City, with Licensee in City’s capacity as a real property owner, in obtaining all such approvals or permissions, provided that City’s cooperation shall be limited to signing applications, letters of authorization or related consents for approvals and permits that require a signature from the owner of the Property, and provided that notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement, the City reserves all its authority and discretion to consider, approve, conditionally approve or deny any and all Governmental Approvals for which the City is the approval authority.

3. MONTHLY RENT
3.1 Initial Year. Licensee shall pay to City a license fee in advance as “Monthly Rent,” without deduction, setoff, prior notice or demand, the sum of Two Thousand Eight Hundred and 00/100 ($2,800.00) per month on or before the first (1st) day of each calendar month, commencing on the Effective Date, provided, however, City and Licensee acknowledge and agree that the initial Monthly Rent payments for the first two (2) calendar months of the Initial Term shall be paid by Licensee to City within sixty (60) days following the Effective Date. Monthly Rent for any partial month shall be prorated at the rate of 1/30th of the Monthly Rent per day. Monthly Rent is subject to adjustment as provided in Section 3.2 below.
3.2 Annual Adjustment. Beginning on the first day of the month in which the first anniversary of the Effective Date occurs and on the first day of the month of each subsequent anniversary of the Effective Date during the Agreement Term (each, an “Adjustment Date”), the Monthly Rent shall be increased based on the following formula: Increased Monthly Rent = Current Monthly Rent x 103.5%.
3.3 Administrative Fee. For purposes of offsetting costs to City in negotiating and administering this Agreement, and not as additional rent, within sixty (60) days after the Effective Date, Licensee shall pay City a one-time administrative fee in the amount of Five Thousand Five Hundred Dollars ($5,500.00) (“Administrative Fee”). The Administrative Fee does not include fees assessed by City for Governmental Approvals (defined herein). Licensee shall pay all applicable fees and taxes related to any Governmental Approvals. In the event this Agreement is terminated prior to the expiration of the Initial Term or any Extended Term, Licensee shall not be entitled to a refund or credit of any portion of the Administrative Fee.
3.4 Payment. Licensee shall make all payments due under this Agreement payable to the City by mail to City of Glendora, Attn: Department of Finance, 116 E. Foothill Blvd., Glendora CA 91741 or at such other address or to such other persons as City may from time to time designate in writing at least thirty (30) days prior to any Monthly Rent payment date.
3.5 Late Payment. Liquidated damages of five percent (5%) of any Monthly Rent or any other required payment to City shall be paid by Licensee if such payment is not paid to City on or before the tenth (10th) day after the date on which it is due. The Parties hereby agree that such late charge represents a fair and reasonable estimate of the costs City will incur by reason of late payment by Licensee. In no event shall the late charge exceed the maximum allowable by Law (as defined in Section 29.12 below). Acceptance of the late charge by City shall not constitute a waiver of Licensee’s default with respect to any other default except the overdue amount, nor prevent City from exercising any of the other rights and remedies available to City for any other default.

4. USE; APPROVALS; REQUIRED IMPROVEMENTS; TERMINATION.
4.1 The Licensed Premises may be used by Licensee for Licensee’s Wireless Telecommunications Facility (as defined below). The Conduit Easement Areas may be used by Licensee for underground utility connections to the Licensed Premises. Subject to City’s reasonable rules promulgated by City in writing from time to time, which rules shall be provided to Licensee in advance in writing, the Access Easement Areas may be used by Licensee for reasonable physical access to the Licensed Premises by Licensee’s personnel, vehicles and equipment, and Licensee’s personnel may temporarily park its motor vehicles, including half-ton or less trucks, on City’s Property in the parking lot adjacent to the Licensed Premises to the extent such vehicles are used in conjunction with constructing and maintaining Licensee’s Wireless Telecommunications Facility, and as necessary and consistent with the authorized use of the Premises. Licensee shall use the Premises as set forth in this Section 4.1 and only for the purpose of maintaining, modifying, and operating Licensee’s Wireless Telecommunications Facility, and for no other use (“Permitted Use”).
4.1.1 “Wireless Telecommunications Facility” means those certain existing permitted equipment and structures on the Premises (or as modified in accordance with this Agreement), such as antennas and microwave dishes, air conditioned equipment shelters and base station equipment, cable, wiring, power sources (including emergency back-up batteries), related equipment and structures, walls and fencing, and an antenna support structure, to the extent such equipment and structures are described and depicted in the attached Exhibits.
4.1.2 Licensee shall not deviate from any Exhibits in any manner without City’s prior, written consent, which consent may be withheld in City’s sole and absolute discretion and which shall require a duly approved and executed written amendment to this Agreement, except as otherwise provided in Paragraph 6 below.
4.1.3 Licensee shall install and/or maintain the improvements described in the Exhibits at Licensee’s sole cost and expense.
4.1.4 Above ground or overhead utility wires, cables, conduits or pipes shall not be used to connect utilities across the Property to the Premises.

Any approved design shall include use of material colorings providing not less than twenty (20) years of natural color fast quality. To ensure compliance with this requirement and in addition to the maintenance requirements set forth in Section 9 below, not more than once every five (5) years, City may Item #11. Page 32
Meeting Date: 6/11/2024 / Packet Page #: 531
01240.0002/737848.6 6
require Licensee to repaint or otherwise re-color the antennas, supporting structure and any portions of the Wireless Telecommunications Facility visible from any public place, so as to match the original color(s), and to replace or repair any stealthing or camouflaged material that is missing, discolored, or otherwise in poor maintenance to its original quantity and quality. City in its proprietary capacity hereby approves the design of the Licensed Premises described and depicted in the Exhibits attached hereto.
4.1.6 Subject to this Agreement, City retains the absolute right to grant the right to use or occupy any portion of the Property, excluding the Licensed Premises, to any other person or entity.
4.2 Prior to using the Premises for any Permitted Use, Licensee shall obtain and maintain all governmental licenses, permits, approvals or other relief required of Licensee by any Law or deemed necessary or appropriate by Licensee for its use of the Premises, including, without limitation, applications for zoning variances, zoning ordinances, amendments, conditional use permits, special use permits, and construction permits (collectively, “Governmental Approvals”), including, without limitation, all Governmental Approvals from City in its governmental capacity required by Law. Licensee agrees that this Agreement does not exempt it from compliance with any Law. City shall bear no responsibility or liability under this Agreement for Licensee ’s inability to make use of the Premises for failure to obtain or maintain any required Governmental Approval; provided however, that City shall reasonably cooperate, at no expense to City, with Licensee in City’s capacity as a real property owner, in obtaining and maintaining the Governmental Approvals, provided that City’s cooperation shall be limited to signing applications, letters of authorization or related consents for approvals and permits that require a signature from the owner of the Property for Governmental Approvals that require a signature from the owner of the Property. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the City reserves all its authority and discretion to consider, approve, conditionally approve or deny any and all Governmental Approvals for which the City is the approval authority. In the event that (i) any of such applications for such Governmental Approvals should be finally rejected; (ii) any Governmental Approval issued to Licensee is canceled, expires, lapses, or is otherwise withdrawn or terminated by the applicable governmental authority; (iii) Licensee determines that such Governmental Approvals may not be obtained in a timely manner; (iv) Licensee determines that any soil boring tests are unsatisfactory; (v) Licensee determines that the Premises is no longer technically compatible for its use, or (vi) Licensee, in its sole discretion, determines that the use of the Premises is obsolete or unnecessary, Licensee shall have the right to terminate this Agreement. Notice of Licensee’s exercise of its right to terminate shall be given to City in writing in accordance with Section 25 below, and shall be effective as set forth in Section 25, or upon such later date as designated by Licensee. All rents paid to said termination date shall be retained by City.
4.3 Except as otherwise stated in this Agreement, including Section 4.1.2, Section 6, and Section 11 hereof, Licensee shall not, without the prior written consent of City, Item #11. Page 33

Licensee acknowledges that City may withhold consent in its reasonable discretion for any such activities which will materially and adversely impact the Property or the use thereof by City and/or other Licensees, and shall require payment of reasonable additional rent as stated in Section 11.6 as a condition of any consent to sublet or otherwise allow a third party to use the Wireless Telecommunications Facility as provided herein.

5.1 Performance and Removal Bond Required. Within sixty (60) days of full execution of this License, or by the date of commencement of any construction or due diligence activities on the Premises, whichever is earlier, Licensee shall pay for and provide City with a Bond, in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit C, and naming City as obligee in an amount equal to Seventy Five Thousand and 00/100 Dollars ($75,000.00) to guarantee and assure Licensee’s faithful performance of Licensee’s obligations under this Agreement, including without limitation, removal obligations and payment of the Monthly Rent (the “Bond”).
5.1.1 The amount of the Bond shall be increased by three (3) percent on the anniversary of the Effective Date, and on each anniversary thereafter.
5.1.2 The Bond shall be solely for the protection of Licensor, conditioned upon the faithful performance of the required construction, maintenance and removal work. Bonds shall be executed by an “admitted surety insurer,” as defined in Code of Civil Procedure Section 995.120, authorized to do business in the State of California and reasonably acceptable to Licensor.
5.1.3 The Bond is conditioned upon the performance by Licensee of all the terms and conditions of this Agreement and upon the further condition that if Licensee fails to comply with any terms or conditions governing this Agreement, there shall be recoverable jointly and severally from the principal and surety of the Bond any damage or loss suffered by Licensor as a result, including the full amount of any compensation, or costs of removal or abandonment of Licensee’s property, plus costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees up to the full amount of the Bond.

5.2 City’s Right to Draw on Bond. After Licensor provides written notice and a reasonable opportunity to cure, City shall have the right to draw on the Bond in the event of a default or breach by Licensee or in the event Licensee fails to meet and fully perform any of its obligations under this Agreement. If the Bond is drawn upon, all of Licensor’s reasonable costs of collection and enforcement of the provisions relating to the Bond that are specified in this Section, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs, may be recovered from the Bond.

Failure to restore the Bond to its full amount within thirty (30) days will constitute a breach of a material condition of this Agreement.
5.4 Required Endorsement. The Bond is subject to the reasonable approval of Licensor’s risk management and must contain the following endorsement:
“This bond may not be canceled until sixty (60) days after receipt by City of Glendora, by registered mail, return receipt requested, of a written notice of intent to cancel or not to renew.”
5.5 Reservation of Rights. The rights reserved by Licensor with respect to the performance Bond are in addition to all other rights and remedies Licensor may have under this Agreement or any other law.
6. ALTERATIONS AND IMPROVEMENTS. No alterations, replacements, modifications, additions or changes shall be made to the Wireless Telecommunication Facility or the Premises unless and until Licensee first obtains City’s written approval of such, which approval may be withheld by City in City’s sole and absolute discretion, and which shall require a duly approved and executed written amendment to this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing: (i) “eligible facilities requests,” as defined in Glendora Municipal Code (“GMC”) Section 21.03.100, shall require City’s prior written administrative approval in accordance with GMC Chapter
21.03.100, and shall require a written amendment to this Agreement if they will operate to increase the overall height or width of the Wireless Telecommunications Facility; and (ii) City’s consent and a written amendment to this Agreement shall not be required for maintenance or equipment repairs that do not result in any deviation from the Exhibits or other terms of this Agreement, nor for “like kind” replacements of equipment (i.e., substantially the same, including with respect to weight, size, appearance, and dimensions, and involving no increase to any overall dimension of the Wireless Telecommunications Facility nor any additional cabinets, antennas or other additions or expansions). In the case of replacement(s), Licensee shall deliver to City at least five (5) days’ prior written notice with confirmation of receipt of such replacement(s) together with a written explanation as to how the replacements are “like kind”. When Licensee must conduct work on an Emergency basis, the Licensee shall notify the City as soon as reasonably practicable. The foregoing provisions of this Section shall not affect the obligation of Licensee to obtain (i) City approval of the alterations, replacements, modifications, additions or changes in accordance with GMC Section 21.03.100, and (ii) any other Governmental Approvals required under applicable Laws from City in its governmental capacity.

Licensee shall not do or permit anything to be done in or about the Premises, nor bring or keep anything therein, which will in any way increase the existing rate of or affect any fire or other insurance upon the Property, or cause a cancellation of any insurance policy covering the Property or any part of the Property or any of its contents. Licensee shall not cause, maintain or permit any nuisance in, on or about the Property. Licensee shall not commit or allow to be committed any waste in or upon the Premises.
10.2 Licensee’s Wireless Telecommunications Facility existing as of the Effective Date of this Agreement shall not cause interference which is measurable in accordance with existing industry standards, to any equipment of other licensees or users of the Property, which existed on the Property prior to the effective date of the Original Agreement or to any equipment of City regardless of location; provided the equipment of other licensees or users of the Property operates within Federal Communications Commission regulations. Licensee shall not install on the Premises new equipment of the type and frequency which will cause interference which is measurable in accordance with then existing industry standards to any equipment of other licensees or users of the Property which existed on the Property prior to the effective date of this Agreement or to any equipment of City regardless Item #11. Page 38
Meeting Date: 6/11/2024 / Packet Page #: 537
01240.0002/737848.6 12
of location; provided such equipment operates within Federal Communications Commission regulations. In the event Licensee desires to add additional equipment to the Premises, after obtaining City’s written approval pursuant to Section 6, such additional equipment shall not cause interference with equipment of other licensees or users of the Property existing as of the date of such installation, or any equipment of City regardless of location.
10.3 Licensee shall resolve any radio interference caused by Licensee’s Wireless Telecommunications Facility to equipment of any other Licensee’s or users of Property existing as of the effective date of the Original Agreement, or to equipment of City, and shall work in good faith to correct radio interference problems experienced by subsequent Licensees or users of Property.
10.4 In the event any modification of Licensee’s Wireless Telecommunications Facility occurring after the initial installation causes such interference, and after City has notified Licensee in writing of such interference, Licensee will promptly take all steps necessary to correct and eliminate the interference, including, without limitation, at Licensee’s option, powering down such equipment and later powering up such equipment for intermittent testing. In no event will City be entitled to terminate this Agreement or relocate the equipment as long as Licensee is making a good faith effort to remedy the interference issue.
10.5 The Parties acknowledge that there will not be an adequate remedy at law for noncompliance with the provisions of this Section 10 and therefore, either Party shall have the right to equitable remedies, such as, without limitation, injunctive relief and specific performance.
11. ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING
11.1 Licensee shall not, either voluntarily or by operation of law, assign, transfer, mortgage, pledge, hypothecate or encumber this Agreement or any interest herein, or any right or privilege to this Agreement, or sublet all or any portion of the Premises (in accordance with Section 11.6 below), or allow any other person (the employees, agents, servants and contractors of Licensee excepted) to occupy or use the Premises, or any portion thereof, without first obtaining the consent of City, which consent may not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, and complying with the provisions of this Section 11.
11.2 Notwithstanding the foregoing, City consent shall not be required if all of the following conditions are satisfied:
(a) Licensee delivers to City prior written notice of the applicable transaction together with written evidence to the reasonable satisfaction of the City that the transaction complies with the following clause (i) such that City’s consent is not required.
(i) The proposed assignee is (i) a corporation or partnership (a “Parent”) having, directly or indirectly, a majority (51% or greater) Item #11. Page 39

ownership interest in Licensee, (ii) a corporation or other entity with which Licensee and/or any Parent may merge or consolidate, (iii) a purchaser of substantially all of the outstanding ownership units or assets of Licensee and/or any Parent, and/or (iv) any transferee of Licensee’s Federal Communications Commission cellular license in the market defined by the FCC in which the Property is located.
11.3 City’s consent to one assignment, subletting, occupation or use by any other person shall not be deemed to be a consent to any subsequent assignment, subletting, occupation or use by another person. Neither the City’s consent to any subletting or assignment, nor any subletting or assignment not requiring consent, shall relieve Licensee from liability under this Agreement, unless otherwise mutually agreed to by the Parties in writing with respect to an assignment or transfer (no such mutual agreement may occur for any sublicense). Any assignment, sublicense or transfer shall be subject to all of the terms, covenants and conditions of this Agreement and Licensee shall require the assignee or transferee to expressly assume for the benefit of City the obligations of Licensee under this Agreement.
11.4 Any assignment or subletting in violation of this Section 11 shall be void, and shall, at the option of City, constitute a default under this Agreement.
11.5 If City consents to Licensee subletting a portion of the Premises in accordance with this Section 11, Licensee may only sublet space in the Licensed Premises.
11.6 If City approves Licensee’s request to sublicense or grant a similar right of use or occupancy or colocation in the Premises or a portion thereof to a third party (each, a “Future Sublicensee”), the Monthly Rent shall be increased by a factor of one hundred fifty percent (150%) for each additional Future Sublicensee and subject to annual increases provided in Section 3.2 (“Additional Rent”). The first (1st) payment of the Additional Rent shall be due on the first (1st) day of the month following the commencement date of the Future Sublicensee, and each subsequent payment shall be due on the first (1st) day of each month thereafter. If and when any Future Sublicensee expires or terminates for any reason and all of the equipment of such Future Sublicensee has been removed from the Premises, Licensee shall no longer be obligated to pay the Additional Rent for such Future Sublicensee. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 11.6 to the contrary, the Parties agree and acknowledge that revenue derived from subtenants or sublicensees and any successors and/or assignees of such subtenants or sublicensees who commenced use and/or sublease or sublicense of the Premises prior to execution of the Agreement shall be expressly excluded from the Additional Rent and City shall have no right to receive any portion of such revenue, including the anchor tenant Sprint. Licensee acknowledges and agrees that each Future Sublicensee, by the terms of its sublicense and this Agreement, is/shall be subject to all applicable terms, covenants and conditions of this Agreement.

13.2 If Hazardous Substances are used, stored, generated or disposed of on or in the Premises (including as described in the last paragraph of this Section 13), or if the Property becomes contaminated in any manner for which Licensee is legally liable, Licensee shall indemnify and hold harmless the City Indemnitees from any and all Claims Against City (including, without limitation, a decrease in value of the Property, damages caused by loss or restriction of rentable or usable space, or any damages caused by adverse impact on marketing of the space, and any and all sums paid for settlement of claims, reasonable attorneys’, consultant, and expert fees) arising during or after the term of this Agreement and to the extent arising as a result of that contamination, except to the extent caused by City or City’s agents, employees or contractors. This indemnification includes, without limitation, any and all reasonable costs incurred because of any investigation of the site or any cleanup, removal or restoration mandated by a federal, state or local agency or political subdivision. Without limitation of the foregoing, if Licensee causes or permits the presence of any Hazardous Substance on the Property which results in contamination, Licensee shall promptly, at Licensee’s sole cost and expense, take any and all necessary actions to return the applicable Property to the condition existing prior to the presence of any such Hazardous Substance on the Property or as close as reasonably possible to such prior condition and in any event, to a condition which complies with Law and requires no further action or remediation.
Licensee shall first obtain City’s approval for any such remedial action, which City agrees not to unreasonably withhold, condition or delay. The provisions of this Section 13 shall be in addition to, and does not limit, the obligations set forth in Section 14 of this Agreement, or other obligations and liabilities Licensee may have to City at law or equity and shall survive the expiration or the termination of this Agreement.

(a) General liability insurance. Licensee shall maintain commercial general liability insurance with coverage at least as broad as Insurance Services Office form CG 00 01, in an amount not less than $2,000,000 per occurrence, $4,000,000 general aggregate, for bodily injury, personal injury, and property damage.

01240.0002/737848.6 16
(b) Duration of coverage. Licensee shall procure and maintain for the duration of this Agreement insurance against claims for injuries to persons or damages to property, which may arise from or in connection with the performance of the Services hereunder by Licensee, its agents, representatives, employees or subconsultants.
(c) Primary/noncontributing. Coverage provided by Licensee shall be primary and any insurance or self-insurance procured or maintained by City shall not be required to contribute with it. The limits of insurance required herein may be satisfied by a combination of primary and umbrella or excess insurance. Any umbrella or excess insurance shall contain or be endorsed to contain a provision that such coverage shall also apply on a primary and non-contributory basis for the benefit of City before the City’s own insurance or self-insurance shall be called upon to protect it as a named insured.
(d) City’s rights of enforcement. In the event any policy of insurance required under this Agreement does not comply with these specifications or is canceled and not replaced, City has the right but not the duty to obtain the insurance it deems necessary and any premium paid by City will be promptly reimbursed by Licensee or City will withhold amounts sufficient to pay premium from Licensee payments. In the alternative, City may cancel this Agreement.
(e) Acceptable insurers. All insurance policies shall be issued by an insurance company currently authorized by the Insurance Commissioner to transact business of insurance or that is on the List of Approved Surplus Line Insurers in the State of California, with an assigned policyholders’ Rating of A- (or higher) and Financial Size Category Class VI (or larger) in accordance with the latest edition of Best’s Key Rating Guide, unless otherwise approved by the City’s Risk Manager.
(f) Waiver of subrogation. All insurance coverage maintained or procured pursuant to this agreement shall be endorsed to waive subrogation against City, its elected or appointed officers, agents, officials, employees and volunteers or shall specifically allow Licensee or others providing insurance evidence in compliance with these specifications to waive their right of recovery prior to a loss. Licensee hereby waives its own right of recovery against City, and shall require similar written express waivers and insurance clauses from each of its subconsultants.
(g) Enforcement of contract provisions (non-estoppel). Licensee acknowledges and agrees that any actual or alleged failure on the part of the City to inform Licensee of non-compliance with any requirement imposes no additional obligations on the City nor does it waive any rights hereunder.
Item #11. Page 43
Meeting Date: 6/11/2024 / Packet Page #: 542
01240.0002/737848.6 17
(h) Requirements not limiting. Requirements of specific coverage features or limits contained in this Section are not intended as a limitation on coverage, limits or other requirements, or a waiver of any coverage normally provided by any insurance. Specific reference to a given coverage feature is for purposes of clarification only as it pertains to a given issue and is not intended by any party or insured to be all inclusive, or to the exclusion of other coverage, or a waiver of any type. If the Licensee maintains higher limits than the minimums shown above, the City requires and shall be entitled to coverage for the higher limits maintained by the Licensee. Any available insurance proceeds in excess of the specified minimum limits of insurance and coverage shall be available to the City.
(i) Notice of cancellation. Licensee agrees to oblige its insurance agent or broker and insurers to provide to City with a thirty (30) day notice of cancellation (except for nonpayment for which a ten (10) day notice is required) or nonrenewal of coverage for each required coverage. (j) Additional insured status. General liability policies shall provide or be endorsed to provide that City and its officers, officials, employees, and agents, and volunteers shall be additional insureds under such policies. This provision shall also apply to any excess/umbrella liability policies. (k) [Reserved].
(l) Separation of insureds. A severability of interests provision must apply for all additional insureds ensuring that Consultant’s insurance shall apply separately to each insured against whom claim is made or suit is brought, except with respect to the insurer’s limits of liability. The policy(ies) shall not contain any cross-liability exclusions that would exclude coverage to the additional insured.
(m) Agency’s right to revise specifications. The City reserves the right at any time during the term of the contract to request reasonable changes in the amounts and types of insurance required by giving the Licensee ninety (90) days advance written notice of such change. If such change results in substantial additional cost to the Licensee, the City and Licensee may renegotiate Consultant’s compensation.
(n) Self-insured retentions. Any self-insured retentions must be declared to and approved by City.. Self-insurance will not be considered to comply with these specifications unless approved by City.
(o) Timely notice of claims. Licensee shall give City prompt and timely notice of claims made or suits instituted that arise out of or result from Consultant’s performance under this Agreement, and that involve or may involve coverage under any of the required liability policies.

01240.0002/737848.6 18
(p) Additional insurance. Licensee shall also procure and maintain, at its own cost and expense, any additional kinds of insurance, which in its own judgment may be necessary for its proper protection and prosecution of the work.
14.3 Indemnification. To the full extent permitted by law, Licensee agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless the City, its elected and appointed officials, officers, employees, volunteers and agents (“Indemnified Parties”) against, and will hold and save them and each of them harmless from, any and all actions, either judicial, administrative, arbitration or regulatory claims, damages to persons or property, losses, costs, penalties, obligations, errors, omissions or liabilities whether actual or threatened (herein “claims or liabilities”) that may be asserted or claimed by any person, firm or entity arising out of or in connection with the negligent performance of or failure to perform the work, operations or activities provided herein of Licensee, its officers, employees, agents, subcontractors, sublicensees, invitees, or any individual or entity for which Licensee is legally liable (“indemnitors”), or arising from Licensee’s or indemnitors’ reckless or willful misconduct, or arising from Licensee’s or indemnitors’ negligent performance of or failure to perform any term, provision, covenant or condition of this Agreement, except claims or liabilities occurring as a result of City’s sole negligence or willful acts or omissions.
The indemnity obligation shall be binding on successors and assigns of Licensee and shall survive termination or expiration of this Agreement.
15. RESERVATIONS. City reserves (and may grant) such easements through the Property (including the Conduit Easement Areas and the Access Easement Areas) that City deems necessary or desirable, including, without limitation, the right to construct, improve, use, maintain and repair utilities, services, pipes and conduits, so long as such easements do not unreasonably interfere with the use of the Premises by Licensee (except that, in the case of an Emergency, City will be entitled to interfere with Licensee’s use of the Premises to the extent necessary, in City’s good faith discretion, to properly address the Emergency).
16. RIGHT OF ACCESS
16.1 City and City’s officers, employees, consultants, and agents shall, upon not less than seventy-two (72) hours prior written notice to Licensee, except in the event of Emergency in which case no prior notice shall be required (but City shall notify Licensee of such access as soon as possible thereafter), have at all reasonable times the right to enter the Premises, in the presence of a Licensee representative, for the purpose of inspecting the same, posting notices of non-responsibility or any other notices required by Law for the protection of City, doing any work that City is permitted or required to perform under this Agreement, and making any reasonable maintenance or repairs to the Premises that City determines may be required. Any inspection of the Premises shall be performed while in the presence of a Licensee representative provided Licensee makes a Licensee representative available for that purpose. Licensee shall provide City with keys allowing access to any locked portions of the Premises; provided, however, that City shall not be permitted to use such keys to access the Premises except after giving the notice required by this Item #11. Page 45
Meeting Date: 6/11/2024 / Packet Page #: 544
01240.0002/737848.6 19

In conducting its activities on the Premises as allowed in this Section 16, City shall use good faith efforts to attempt to minimize the inconvenience, annoyance or disturbance to Licensee, provided that the City shall not be liable therefor. Licensee shall not be entitled to an abatement or reduction of Monthly Rent if City exercises any rights reserved in this Section 16.
16.2 Licensee shall provide to City, and maintain current, an Emergency telephone number at which a live person is available twenty-four (24) hours per day, seven (7) days per week who is capable of causing an immediate response by Licensee in the case of an Emergency. The initial Emergency contact telephone number is 800- 788-7011 (alternate 866-482-8890), which may be changed by Licensee upon written notice to City.
17. TAXES AND ASSESSMENTS
17.1 Licensee shall pay or cause to be paid, before delinquency, any and all taxes, assessments or charges levied and assessed against its interest in the Premises, upon all of Licensee’s improvements, equipment, furniture, fixtures, and any other personal property located in or on the Premises, or which may become a lien against the Licensee’s interest in the Premises. Licensee shall reasonably cooperate with the Los Angeles County Assessor in providing any information necessary for the Assessor to make a property tax determination.
17.2 If for any reason Licensee’s Wireless Telecommunications Facility is assessed for tax purposes as part of the Property, Licensee shall reimburse City for any increase in City’s taxes attributable to the value or cost of Licensee’s Wireless Telecommunications Facility. Reimbursement shall be due thirty (30) days following Licensee’s receipt of a written request and reasonable evidence of the increase.
18. LICENSEE’S DEFAULT. The occurrence of any one or more of the following events shall constitute a default and breach of this Agreement by Licensee:
18.1 The vacating or abandonment of the Premises by Licensee, provided that City hereby acknowledges that the Wireless Telecommunications Facility is an unmanned facility;
18.2 The failure by Licensee to make any payment of Monthly Rent or any other payment required to be made by Licensee hereunder, as and when due, where such failure shall continue for a period of five (5) business days after written notice thereof is given to Licensee by City;
18.3 The failure by Licensee to observe or perform any of the covenants, conditions or provisions of this Agreement to be observed or performed by Licensee, other than described in Section 18.2 above, where such failure shall continue for a period of thirty (30) days after City gives written notice of such failure to Licensee; provided, however, that if the nature of Licensee’s default is such that more than thirty (30) Item #11. Page 46
Meeting Date: 6/11/2024 / Packet Page #: 545
01240.0002/737848.6 20
days are reasonably required for its cure, then Licensee shall not be deemed to be in default if Licensee commences such cure within such thirty (30) day period and thereafter diligently prosecutes such cure to completion; or
18.4 The making by Licensee of any general assignment or general arrangement for the benefit of creditors; or unless prohibited by Bankruptcy Law or other paramount Law, the filing by or against Licensee of a petition to have Licensee adjudged a bankrupt, or a petition or reorganization or arrangement under any Law relating to bankruptcy (unless, in the case of a petition filed against Licensee, the same is dismissed within sixty (60) days); or the appointment of a trustee or a receiver to take possession of substantially all of Licensee’s assets located at the Premises or of Licensee’s interest in this Agreement, where possession is not restored to Licensee within thirty (30) days; or the attachment, execution or other judicial seizure of substantially all of Licensee’s assets located at the Premises or of Licensee’s interest in this Agreement, where such seizure is not discharged within thirty (30) days; or
18.5 In the event of any violation of Section 11 (e.g., a transfer or subletting by Licensee without required consent from City), City shall have the right to declare a default and, if Licensee does not timely cure the default in accordance with Section 18.3 (including without limitation by causing the removal of the unauthorized party and all its equipment and personal property from the Property), to terminate this Agreement in addition to recovering liquidated damages at the rate set forth below from the time the violation occurred until the time of termination of this Agreement, without limitation as to any other remedies City may have. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Licensee demonstrates to the satisfaction of the City during the cure period that the unauthorized transfer/subletting (i) would warrant City approval under Section 11 had it been timely sought and (ii) otherwise complies with the applicable provisions of this Agreement, then City may approve the unauthorized transfer/subletting and thereby authorize it retroactively in lieu of terminating this Agreement provided: (i) Additional Rent is paid as applicable under Section 11.6 for the retroactive approval period and moving forward thereafter; and (ii) Licensee pays City, in a lump sum at the time of such retroactive approval, liquidated damages in an amount equal to seventy-five percent (75%) percent of the Additional Rent for each month or partial month of the retroactive approval period, in the event of an unauthorized subletting within the scope of Section 11.6,, or $3,000 for each month or partial month of the retroactive approval period, in the event of an unauthorized transfer/assignment not within the scope of Section 11.6.
With respect to the liquidated damages provided for herein, the Parties acknowledge and agree that: (i) it is impracticable or extremely difficult to determine what the actual damages to City would be for the subject violations by Licensee, and how those damages might be calculated; (ii) they have made a reasonable endeavor to estimate fair compensation for such violations; and (iii) upon doing so, they have concluded that the stated amounts represent a fair and reasonable estimate of such damages.

01240.0002/737848.6 21
19. DEFAULT BY CITY. City shall not be in default unless City fails to perform obligations required of City within thirty (30) days after Licensee gives City written notice specifying wherein City has failed to perform such obligation; provided, however, that if the nature of City’s obligation is such that more than thirty (30) days are required for performance then City shall not be in default if City commences performance within such thirty (30) day period and thereafter prosecutes the same to completion in good faith.
21. REMEDIES ON DEFAULT
21.1 Upon a default, and after receipt of written notice of such default by the defaulting Party, and expiration of the defaulting Party's cure period as provided in this Agreement, the non-defaulting Party may at its option (but without obligation to do so), perform the defaulting Party's duty or obligation on the defaulting Party's behalf, including but not limited to obtaining required insurance policies. The reasonable costs and expenses of any such performance by the non-defaulting Party shall be due and payable by the defaulting Party upon receipt of an invoice from the non-defaulting Party that describes the costs and expenses with particularity.
The defaulting Party shall pay to the non-defaulting Party upon demand, the full invoiced amount thereof with interest thereon from the date of payment at the statutory interest rate permitted by California Civil Code Section 3289(b).
Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Agreement will be deemed to permit Licensee to withhold or offset rent or any other amounts owed to Licensor.
21.2 In the event of an uncured default by either Party with respect to a material provision of this Agreement which remains uncured beyond all applicable cure periods, the non-defaulting Party may, in addition to any other remedies which may be available hereunder and all rights described in California Civil Code Section 1951.4, terminate this Agreement and/or pursue any remedy now or hereafter available to the non-defaulting Party under the Laws or judicial decisions of the state in which the Premises are located; provided, however, that the non-defaulting Party shall use reasonable efforts to mitigate its damages in connection with a default by the defaulting Party.
22. LIMITATION OF CITY’S LIABILITY. In no event shall either Party be liable to the other Party or any of the other Party’s officers, partners, affiliates, subsidiaries, customers, lessees, licensees, sublessees, sublicensees, assignees, agents, representatives, contractors, servants, or employees for any lost revenue, lost profits, anticipated profits, penalties of any kind or description, loss of technology, rights or services, incidental, punitive, indirect, special or consequential damages, or monetary damages of any kind, loss of data, or interruption or loss of use of service, even if advised of the possibility of such damages, whether under theory of contract, tort (including negligence), strict liability or otherwise.
23. RECONSTRUCTION AND/OR RELOCATION.
23.1 In the event Licensee’s improvements on the Premises, or the Premises, are damaged by fire or other perils covered by extended coverage insurance, Licensee agrees to repair the damage, and this Agreement shall remain in full force and Item #11. Page 48
Meeting Date: 6/11/2024 / Packet Page #: 547
01240.0002/737848.6 22
effect. In the event the improvements are damaged as a result of any cause other than the perils covered by fire and extended coverage insurance, either Party shall have the option to give notice to the other Party at any time within sixty (60) days after such damage, terminating this Agreement as of the date specified in such notice (which date shall be no more than thirty (30) days after the giving of such notice). In the event of giving such notice, this Agreement shall expire and all interest of Licensee in the Premises shall terminate on the date so specified in such notice and the rent, reduced by a proportionate reduction, based upon the extent, if any, to which such damage interfered with the business carried on by Licensee in the Premises, shall be paid up to date of such termination.
23.2 It is understood and agreed that during the Agreement Term, City may need to redevelop the Property. In the event City redevelops the Property, Licensee agrees that City may, only after the expiration of the Initial Term, require Licensee to relocate the Premises one time to another location on the Property, such location to be mutually agreed upon by the Parties (the “Replacement Premises”); provided, however, the Replacement Premises shall be similar to the current Premises in size and compatible for Licensee’s Wireless Telecommunications Facility. Licensee also agrees that it shall cause such relocation to be accomplished within eighteen (18) months after determination of the Replacement Premises location, including obtaining all Governmental Approvals required for the relocation. Licensee further agrees that any and all costs attributable to such relocation shall be borne and paid for by Licensee; provided, however, in lieu of relocating, Licensee shall have the option of terminating this Agreement by providing City with written notice of its election to do so and removing all component parts of the Licensee’s Wireless Telecommunications Facility from the Premises prior to the date City required Licensee to complete the relocation. Licensee shall be permitted to operate a temporary facility at the Property (e.g. cell on wheels) in a location reasonably approved by City during any such relocation; provided that Licensee has obtained all required Governmental Approvals. Licensee hereby WAIVES ALL

TERMINATION.
24. EMINENT DOMAIN. If City receives notice of a proposed taking by eminent domain of any part of the parcel of land upon which the Premises is situated, City will notify Licensee of the proposed taking within fifteen (15) days of receiving said notice. If all or any part of the Premises shall be taken or appropriated by any authority under the power of eminent domain, either Party shall have the right, at its option, within sixty (60) days after such taking, to terminate this Agreement upon thirty (30) days’ notice. If neither Party elects to terminate as herein provided, the rent thereafter to be paid shall be equitably reduced. In the event of any taking or appropriation whatsoever, City shall be entitled to any and all awards and/or settlements that may be given (other than awards given to Licensee allowed by law against the condemning authority, including for the taking of Licensee’s personal property and/or trade fixtures), and Licensee shall have no claim against City for the value of any unexpired term of this Agreement.

STAFF REPORT
TO: MAYOR AND COUNCIL MEMBERS DATE: JUNE 11, 2024
FROM: COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT DISTRICT(S): CITYWIDE
SUBJECT: ZERO EMISSION VEHICLE CALL FOR PROJECTS PROPOSITION C FUNDING
AGREEMENT
RECOMMENDATION
That the City Council:
1. Authorize the City Manager to execute the Zero Emission Vehicle Call for Projects Proposition C Funding Agreement between the City of Glendora and the Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority (LACMTA).
STRATEGIC FOCUS AREAS
Goal 2: Maintain Financial Stability and Sustainability (MFSS) Goal 5: Improve and Maintain the City’s Infrastructure and Facilities (IMCIF)
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The Innovative Clean Transit Regulation (ICT) was adopted in December 2018 and requires all public transit agencies to gradually transition to a 100 percent zero‑emission bus (ZEB) fleet. On September 13, 2022, the City Council adopted the City of Glendora Zero Emission Rollout Plan which identified fleet, facility, and capital planning for the transition to zero-emission transit technology. Subsequently, LACMTA made available funds for transit agencies in LA County who are not otherwise eligible for Federal Transit Administration grants for zero-emission and bus facility grants. The City of Glendora applied for and was awarded $1,000,000 towards the purchase of zero-emission buses and facility improvements to support their deployment.
LEGISLATIVE HISTORY / PREVIOUS ACTIONS
Staff and the City Council began work on the Rollout Plan starting in August 2021. The City Council, Community Services Commission, and Planning Commission received and reviewed the draft Rollout Plan. On June 28, 2022, the City Council also reviewed the Rollout Plan, approved two zero-emission bus purchases, EV chargers, the ChargeReady Transport Agreement, and accepted the award of the Carl Moyer grant for the EV chargers. On September 13, 2022, the City Council adopted the final City of Glendora Zero Emission Rollout Plan. The California Air Resources Board (CARB) certified the City’s Rollout Plan as compliant on October 26, 2022.
DISCUSSION
Background
The California Air Resources Board (CARB) created the ICT to require transit agencies to move towards zero-emission technology. Under the ICT, the City of Glendora is considered a small operator. CARB requires 25% of eligible new bus purchases to be zero-emission starting in 2026 and grow to 100% by 2029.
To be compliant with the ICT and maintain eligibility for state clean vehicle vouchers (HVIP), the City Item #12. Page 1
Meeting Date: 6/11/2024 / Packet Page #: 576
Staff Report Page 2 of 3
prepared its Rollout Plan which CARB certified in October of 2022. The City took delivery of two zeroemission buses in October 2023 and Southern California Edison started installing charging infrastructure at the new Transit Yard in May 2024.
Funding Agreement
With respect to transit funding allocations in LA County, the City of Glendora is considered a non-included operator (by contrast Arcadia, Claremont, Montebello, and Foothill Transit are considered included operators) and as such is excluded from directly receiving federal and state capital and operating funds.
LACMTA recognizing this disparity, and with advocacy from agencies like the City of Glendora, made available funds to reflect higher federal transit funding allocation due to the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act in 2021.
The City of Glendora applied for and was awarded $1,000,000 towards the purchase of zero-emission buses and facility improvements to support their deployment at the new Transit Yard.
FISCAL IMPACT
Sufficient budget is available in Proposition A (209) and the Grants Fund (207) in the proposed FY2024/FY2025 Two-Year – Year 2 Budget Mid-Cycle Update.
The Transit Yard Modernization CIP has a total local funding amount of $360,000. Use of the local funding amount is detailed below:
Expenditures to Date Amount
Four DC fast chargers $247,104
Site Preparation 704
Planned Expenditures
Electrician Services for Charger Installation 44,651
Total $292,459
Remaining Local Funding $67,541
It is anticipated the LACMTA grant will cover portions of the next two zero-emission bus acquisitions and facility upgrades such as repaving and ADA/Building Code requirements at the new Transit Yard.

Prop C Funds
Attachment D and the most recently adopted LACMTA Proposition C Guidelines for the type of Proposition C funds granted by LACMTA hereunder (the "Guidelines").
3.2 GRANTEE shall not use the Funds to substitute for any other funds or projects not specified in this Agreement. Further, GRANTEE shall not use the Funds for any expenses or activities beyond the approved Project Application (Attachment B). *3.3 GRANTEE must use the Funds in the most cost-effective manner. If GRANTEE intends to use a consultant or contractor to implement all or part of the Project, LACMTA requires that such activities be procured in accordance with GRANTEE’S contracting procedures and consistent with State law. GRANTEE will also use the Funds in the most cost-effective manner when the Funds are used to pay “in-house” staff time. This effective use of funds provision will be verified by LACMTA through on-going Project monitoring and through any LACMTA interim and final audits. *3.4 GRANTEE’S employee, officers, councilmembers, board member, agents, or consultants (a “GRANTEE Party”) are prohibited from participating in the selection, award, or administration of a third-party contract or sub-agreement supported by the Funds if a real or apparent conflict of interest would be involved. A conflict of interest would include, without limitation, an organizational conflict of interest or when any of the following parties has a financial or other interest in any entity selected for award: (a) a GRANTEE Party (b) any member of a GRANTEE Party’s immediate family, (c) a partner of a GRANTEE Party; (d) any organization that employs or intends to employ any of the above. This conflict of interest provision will be verified by LACMTA through on-going Project monitoring and through any LACMTA interim and final audits.
3.5 GRANTEE is obligated to continue using the Project consistent with the public transportation purposes for which the Project was approved. The Project right-of-way and real property purchased to implement the Project shall remain dedicated to public transportation use. The obligations set forth in this section shall survive termination of this Agreement.
3.6 If GRANTEE desires to use the Funds to purchase or lease equipment including, without limitation, vehicles, office equipment, computer hardware or software, or other personal property (“Equipment”) necessary to perform or provide the services set forth in the Project Application, GRANTEE must obtain LACMTA’s written consent prior to purchasing or leasing any Equipment. Equipment purchased or leased without such prior written consent shall be deemed an unallowable expenditure of the Funds. Equipment acquired as part of the Project shall be dedicated to that Project use for their full economic life cycle, including any extensions of that life cycle achieved by reconstruction, rehabilitation, or enhancements.
3.7 If an Equipment ceases to be used for the proper use as originally stated in the Project Application, GRANTEE will be required to return to LACMTA the Funds used to purchase or lease such Equipment in proportion to the useful life remaining and in equal proportion of the Funds to GRANTEE Funding Commitment ratio. The obligations set forth in this section shall survive termination of this Agreement.

Prop C Funds
3.8 If any Project facilities or any real property purchased to implement the Project is no longer used or is no longer needed for the Project, including construction easements or excess property, GRANTEE will be required to return to LACMTA the Funds used to design, construct or acquire such Project facilities or real property in equal proportion of the grant to GRANTEE Funding Commitment ratio. The obligations set forth in this section shall survive termination of this Agreement.
3.9 If GRANTEE desires to use any Project facility or any real property purchased to implement the Project to generate revenue, GRANTEE shall first obtain LACMTA’s written consent prior to entering into any such revenue generating arrangement.
GRANTEE shall provide LACMTA with the applicable information regarding the transaction, including without limitation, the property at issue, the proposed use of the property, the amount of revenue, any impact to the Project and the proposed use of the revenue. LACMTA consent may be conditioned on whether bond funds were used, and how GRANTEE plans to use the revenue, including, without limitation, sharing any net revenues with LACMTA. If GRANTEE fails to obtain LACMTA’s prior written consent, GRANTEE shall be considered in default and LACMTA shall have all rights and remedies available at law or in equity, including, without limitation the return of the Funds to cover the cost of the property in question. The obligations set forth in this section shall survive termination of this Agreement.
3.10 GRANTEE understands that this Agreement does not provide any rights for GRANTEE to use LACMTA real property needed for the Project. If the Project requires use of LACMTA Property, GRANTEE will need to enter into a separate agreement with LACMTA in accordance with LACMTA real property policies and procedures. Nothing in this Agreement obligates LACMTA to provide GRANTEE with any real estate right.
4. DISBURSEMENT OF FUNDS:
4.1 Disbursements shall be made on a reimbursement basis in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement. GRANTEE shall submit proof of purchase along with their invoice prior to funds being distributed. Should supporting documentation not be provided with invoices then disbursement of funds will be delayed until such documentation is received by LACMTA.
4.2 LACMTA will make all disbursements electronically unless an exception is requested in writing. Disbursements via Automated Clearing House (ACH) will be made at no cost to GRANTEE. GRANTEE must register in LACMTA’s iSupplier portal and submit an application before grant payments can be made. The link to the portal can be found at http://media.metro.net/uploads/EBB/Vendor Portal Registration.pdf.
4.3 GRANTEE shall demonstrate that the GRANTEE has expended its own funding identified in application to fully fund Project.
4.4 Expenses that are not invoiced within 60 days after the lapsing date specified in Part II, Section 8.1 below are not eligible for reimbursement.

5. AUDIT REQUIREMENTS/PAYMENT ADJUSTMENTS:
*5.1 LACMTA, and/or its designee, shall have the right to conduct audits of the Project, as deemed appropriate, such as financial and compliance audits; interim audits; pre-award audits, performance audits and final audits. LACMTA will commence a final audit within twelve months of receipt of an acceptable final invoice, provided the Project is ready for final audit (meaning all costs and charges have been paid by GRANTEE and invoiced to LACMTA, and such costs, charges and invoices are properly documented and summarized in the accounting records to enable an audit without further explanation or summarization including actual indirect rates for the period under review). GRANTEE agrees to establish and maintain proper accounting procedures and cash management records and documents in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP). GRANTEE shall reimburse LACMTA for any expenditure not in compliance with this Agreement and the Guidelines. GRANTEE’S eligible expenditures submitted to LACMTA for this Project shall be in compliance with the Project Application (Attachment B). Any use of the Funds which is expressly prohibited under this Agreement shall be an ineligible use of the Funds and may be disallowed by LACMTA audit. Findings of the LACMTA audit are final. When LACMTA audit findings require GRANTEE to return monies to LACMTA, GRANTEE shall return such monies within thirty (30) days after the final audit is sent to GRANTEE. *5.2 GRANTEE’S records shall include, without limitation, accounting records, written policies and procedures, contract files, original estimates, correspondence, change order files (including documentation covering negotiated settlements), invoices, and any other supporting evidence deemed necessary by LACMTA to substantiate charges related to the Project (all collectively referred to as “records”) shall be open to inspection and subject to audit and reproduction by LACMTA auditors or authorized representatives to the extent deemed necessary by LACMTA to adequately permit evaluation of expended costs. Such records subject to audit shall also include, without limitation, those records deemed necessary by LACMTA to evaluate and verify, direct and indirect costs, (including overhead allocations) as they may apply to costs associated with the Project. These records must be retained by GRANTEE for three years following final payment under this Agreement.
Payment of retention amounts shall not occur until after the LACMTA’s final audit is completed.
*5.3 GRANTEE shall cause all contractors to comply with the requirements of Part II, Sections 5.1 and 5.2 above. GRANTEE shall cause all contractors to cooperate fully in furnishing or in making available to LACMTA all records deemed necessary by LACMTA auditors or authorized representatives related to the Project.

*5.7 When business travel associated with the Project requires use of a vehicle, the mileage incurred shall be reimbursed at the mileage rates set by the Internal Revenue Service, as indicated in the United States General Services Administration Federal Travel Regulation, Privately Owned Vehicle Reimbursement Rates.
5.8 Whenever possible, in exercising its audit rights under this Agreement, LACMTA shall rely on GRANTEE’S own records and audit work to minimize direct audit of contractors, consultants, and suppliers.
6. ONE TIME GRANT: This is a one time only grant subject to the terms and conditions agreed to herein. This grant does not imply nor obligate any future funding commitment on the part of LACMTA.
7. SOURCES AND DISPOSITION OF FUNDS:
7.1 The obligation for LACMTA to grant the Funds for the Project is subject to sufficient Funds being made available for the Project by the LACMTA Board of Directors. If such Funds are not made available for the Project, LACMTA shall have no obligation to provide the Funds for the Project, unless otherwise agreed to in writing by LACMTA.
7.2 GRANTEE shall fully fund and contribute the GRANTEE Funding Commitment, as identified in the Project application (Attachment B), towards the cost of the Project. If the Funds identified in Attachment B are insufficient to complete the Project, GRANTEE agrees to secure and provide such additional non-LACMTA programmed funds necessary to complete the Project.

LACMTA shall have the right to use any cost savings associated with the Funds at its sole discretion, including, without limitation, programming the unused Funds to another project or to another GRANTEE. If, at the time of final voucher, it is determined that GRANTEE has received Funds in excess of what GRANTEE should have received for the Project, GRANTEE shall return such overage to LACMTA within 30 days from final voucher.
8. TIMELY USE OF FUNDS / REPROGRAMMING OF FUNDS:
8.1 GRANTEE must demonstrate timely use of the Funds by:

8.3 If GRANTEE fails to meet any of the conditions in paragraph 8.1 above, the Project shall be considered lapsed and will be submitted to the LACMTA Board for deobligation. Expenses that are not invoiced within 60 days after the lapsing date are not eligible for reimbursement.

2 Project Description and Justification
AGENCY NAME: City of Glendora
PROJECT SHORT TITLE: Glendora Transit Fleet Electrification PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
The City of Glendora is embarking on the transition from conventional fossil-fueled transit buses to zeroemission battery electric buses. The City completed the required California Air Resources Board Zero Emission Bus Rollout Plan on October 26, 2022. This proposal requests funding to implement the City’s Rollout Plan with the purchase of four GreenPower EV250 32-foot battery electric buses (or equivalent), four DC fast chargers from ChargePoint, and related facility improvements. The total project cost is $2,735,536 of which the City of Glendora will contribute $1,735,536 and is requesting $1,000,000 under this grant. The City expects to be fully operational by early 2024.
PROJECT JUSTIFICATION
The City of Glendora operates both fixed-route and ADA-paratransit service. With the arrival of the Metro L (Gold) Line by 2026, the City needs to be in a position to offer first/last mile fixed-route service to the station and continue to provide high-quality midday circulation service. The EV250s will allow Glendora to run higher capacity buses to support additional transit connectivity and potentially to save operating dollars which can be reinvested in expanded service hours.
The adopted Rollout Plan targets the transition to zero-emission starting in FY2022 and ending in FY2025 for the required vehicles. This grant would allow the City of Glendora to fully implement the Rollout Plan and would mark the first agency in Los Angeles County to fully implement its approved Rollout Plan. The implementation would also support job training opportunities for Citrus College which has a zero-emission vehicle mechanic program.
The Federal Transit Administration (FTA) defines the useful life of cutaway bus as 10 years. Under the plan, the four cutaways targeted for replacement with the EV250 range in age from 12 years to eight years.
The youngest vehicle is currently out-of-service due to engine failure. The other 2015 vehicle will be at the end of its useful life in 2025 which would align with the delivery window for second batch of the EV250.
This replacement schedule aligns with the Transit Asset Management Plan (TAM), of which the City of Glendora participates with under Metro’s Group TAM Plan.

3 As part of the transition to zero emission, the Transit Yard will have to be relocated to the existing Parks Yard due to electrical capacity constraints. The City has executed the agreement with Southern California Edison under the ChargeReady Transport Program to perform the design and installation of a new transformer, switchgear, meters, and conduit for the charging equipment. Currently SoCal Edison has prepared final plans and the City is facilitating the permit process. Construction is expected to commence Spring 2023 and be complete by Summer 2023. The plans are attached in the Rollout Plan.
The City has identified four ChargePoint CPE250 (62.5kW) fast chargers. The funds requested under this grant will over $25,000 per charger. The City will be procuring an electrician for the installation. Additional facility improvements including repaving and striping the yard and any necessary ADA upgrades for passengers and drivers. Figures 1 and 2 show existing conditions.

PROJECT READINESS
The City prepared, submitted, and received approval from CARB for the City’s Rollout Plan on October 26, 2022. Since the City has an approved Rollout Plan, there is no risk of not receiving state vouchers (HVIP) due to non-compliance. Additionally, the City Council approved the Rollout Plan and funding will be programmed into the upcoming two-year budget cycle for the City.
The City of Glendora purchased the first two EV250s in July 2022 and expected delivery is Summer 2023.
The second round of purchase is expected to occur upon completion of the funding agreement for this grant.
Vehicle assembly takes approximately eight to nine months.
The City of Glendora completed the purchase of the ChargePoint CPE250 (62.5kW) fast chargers in July 2022. The chargers and related equipment were delivered to the City in January 2023.
The City of Glendora executed the Program Agreement with SoCal Edison for the ChargeReady Transport Program in July 2022. This allowed SoCal Edison to proceed with design and permitting. Currently, SoCal Edison has submitted final plans to the City which are now under review. Permitting will occur once final plans are accepted. Additionally, the City will grant SoCal Edison an easement for the conduits.
Construction is expected to commence in April 2023 and complete by the end of May 2023.

6 BENEFIT TO TRANSIT USERS
The four buses funded by this application will be deployed on our fixed-route service. Presently, the City operates two commuter routes in the morning and afternoon and three midday routes. The commuter shuttles serve the existing Metro L (Gold) Line APU/Citrus College Station and the Midday Shuttles offer circulation within Glendora serving public schools, library, Glendora Village, and the Teen and Family Center.
With the arrival of the Metro L (Gold) Line Glendora Station, the City is anticipating higher travel demand for first/last mile transit service. During the Gold Line planning process, the Foothill Gold Line Construction Authority reduced the number of parking spaces at the Glendora Station by 118 spaces.
Simultaneously, the Supplemental Environmental Impact Report noted that the Glendora Station is forecast to have 1,700 daily boardings. Of those boardings, approximately 15%, or 255, will be from bus connections. The major employers in the city including Emanate Health Foothill Presbyterian Hospital, Glendora Unified School District, City of Glendora, and the Glendora Village. The City will be reevaluating routes staring in Summer 2023 to plan for the new connections.

Section D. Current Bus Fleet Composition and Future Purchase Existing Bus Fleet
The City of Glendora operates three shuttle services: Midday Shuttle, Gold Line Commuter Shuttle, and a Metrolink Commuter Shuttle. The Midday Shuttle has a total of three routes (Orange, Green, and Tripper).
Major stops for the Midday Shuttle include middle schools, high schools, Glendora Village, Glendora Library, Crowther Teen & Family Center, and Glen Oaks Golf Course. The Midday Shuttle operates from Monday through Friday during the school year.
The Gold Line Shuttle provides AM and PM service to and from the APU/Citrus and Downtown Azusa stations on the Metro Gold Line light rail. The shuttles run from these two station locations to terminals in Glendora with stops along the way.
The Metrolink Commuter Shuttle has both AM and PM shuttle service. The shuttle departs from Glendora Transit Parking Plaza and connects to the Covina Metrolink Station. The Gold Line Shuttle operates with two routes (North and South) which provide services from two park-and-ride lots to the Metro L (Gold) Line APU/Citrus College Station. The City is considering rerouting this service to connect with the newly completed Covina Transit Center.
The City of Glendora currently has a total of six (6) vans and four (4) cutaways. The vans are not required for inclusion in the rollout plan but are described for context. Three of the four cutaway vehicles are fueled by CNG, and one is fueled by gasoline. The model years for the four cutaways range from 2011 to 2015 as seen in Table 1: Individual Bus Information of Current Bus Fleet.

Performance Analysis
To determine whether the available battery size for the GreenPower EV250 would be sufficient to operate Glendora’s existing shuttle service, we estimated the vehicle’s range using its advertised battery consumption rate per mile as well as a battery consumption rate per mile was estimated to reflect real world conditions. The table below, Table 5: Estimated Battery Consumption Rates, summarizes expected battery consumption rates for a new vehicle without battery degradation compared to an older one with degradation. The battery consumption rates in this analysis were informed by operational data for other similar battery-electric models in relation to their advertised performance. Performance data specific to the GreenPower EV250 was not available.

While the total mileage per day per vehicle exceeds the estimated mileage available on a full charge for a GreenPower EV250 bus in some cases, the addition of midday charging at the bus facility during layovers is expected to be sufficient to operate all three schedules, even with battery degradation over time.
Section E. Facilities and Infrastructure Modifications
The City of Glendora currently has one Transit Facility which houses the City’s six (6) vans and four (4) cutaways. The current facility is located at 410 E Dalton Avenue. However, due to electrical capacity constraints at the current site, the City is planning to relocate the Transit Facility to 1636 Compromise Line Road.
The Conceptual Plan for installation of the four plug-in chargers (Figure 1) shows where chargers would be installed in cutaway bus storage spaces. These charges can be used over both overnight and midday layover charging. Planned facility are detailed in Table 7: Facilities Information and Construction Timeline. The City plans to install 4 ChargePoint Express 250 Stations (62.5 kW) with Carl Moyer grant funding as well as with participation from Southern California Edison under the ChargeReady Transport Program. There are no anticipated impacts to parking capacity and there is sufficient capacity to add an additional two BEBs in the future if needed. In addition, there is sufficient capacity for the City to contemplate shared charging with Pomona Valley Transportation Authority (PVTA) at this location.

Potential Additional Funding Sources
Federal Funding
Note: In LA County, small cities are generally not eligible to be direct recipients of federal funds but can receive funds as a sub-recipient through LA Metro.
Low or No Emission (Low-No) Grant Program
The Low or No Emission competitive Federal Transit Authority (FTA) grant program supports funding to state and local governments for the purchase or lease of zero-emission and low-emission transit buses.
Eligible projects include: (1) purchasing or leasing low- or no-emission buses; (2) acquiring low- or noemission buses with a leased power source; (3) constructing or leasing facilities and related equipment (including intelligent technology and software) for low- or no-emission buses; (4) constructing new public transportation facilities to accommodate low- or no-emission buses, and/or (5) rehabilitating or improving existing public transportation facilities to accommodate low- or no-emission buses.4 In June 2021, the FTA allocated approximately $192 million in funding for the next program year. In 2020 the program funded 41 projects with a total of approximately $129 million. Of the 41 projects, the average funding amount was approximately $3.1 million. The lowest amount awarded was approximately $300,00 and the largest amount awarded was approximately $7 million.
Grants for Buses and Bus Facilities Program
The Grants for Buses and Bus Facilities Program is administered by the FTA to replace, rehabilitate, and purchase buses and related equipment to construct bus facilities. Previous project selections include the City of Hazleton, PA which received $10 million for constructing a new bus maintenance and storage facility. SEPTA was also a past recipient of the program, receiving $2 million to fund and construct new bus stations to extend its Roosevelt Boulevard Direct Bus Service from Frankford Transportation Center to Wissahickon Transportation Center.
Targeted Airshed Grants Program
The Targeted Airshed Grants program, administered by the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), assists local, state, and tribal air pollution control agencies with developing plans and conducting projects to reduce air pollution in non-attainment areas that EPA determines are the top five most polluted areas for ozone and PM 2.5 National Ambient Air Quality Standards. The program has approximately $59 million for the 2021 Fiscal Year. In 2020, the Allegheny County Health Department in Pennsylvania received approximately $5.6 million in funding to replace public transit buses with zero-emission alternatives. The California Air Resources Board in Nevada County also received approximately $2.4 million in 2020 to replace public transit buses with zero-emission buses.
Clean Fuels Grant Program
The Clean Fuels Grant Program is administered by the FTA to assist in maintaining National Ambient Air Quality Standards for ozone and carbon monoxide, as well as support emerging clean fuel technologies for transit buses. This includes the purchase or lease of clean fuel buses; construction or leasing of bus fueling or charging facilities and equipment; projects related to clean fuel, biodiesel, hybrid-electric, or zero-emissions technology; and buses that have lower emissions than existing clean fuel or hybrid electric technologies. Funds for a project are available over a three-year period. 4 USDOT FTA. Source URL: https://www.transit.dot.gov/lowno Item #12. Page 36

Energy Efficiency and Conservation Block Grant (EECBG)
The EECBG program is administered by the US Department of Energy (DOE) to support and manage projects that improve energy efficiency and decrease energy use and fossil fuel emissions. This program received one-time funding under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) of 2009. The EECBG program will receive $550 million through the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act for a new round of grants to state and local governments for clean energy investment projects, loan programs, and energy saving performance contracting programs (i.e., budget-neutral approaches to make improvements that reduce energy use and pay for them through future energy savings usage).5 6 In the 2009 round of funding, the City of Boston received approximately $6.5 million toward reducing fossil fuel emissions, reducing total energy use, and improving energy efficiency in the building sector.7 The Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act – Carbon Reduction Program The newly passed federal Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act has over $1 trillion in federal infrastructure investment. The legislation establishes guaranteed funding levels through Fiscal Year 2022- 2026 and is not a one-time stimulus. Its focus is to provide a foundation for a long-term surface transportation reauthorization bill. The legislation also includes investments in aviation, EV charging infrastructure, resiliency, and more.
Within the legislation is a Carbon Reduction Program that will distribute approximately $6.4 billion over five years to states for investment in projects that will help reduce transportation emissions. Eligible projects include transportation electrification, EV charging, public transportation, infrastructure for bicycling and walking, infrastructure that would support congestion pricing, diesel engine retrofits, port electrification and intelligent transportation systems (ITS) improvements. Approximately 65% of this funding would be allocated by population to projects in local communities.8 The Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act – Grants for Charging and Fueling Infrastructure This grant was established behalf of the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act. Approximately $2.5 billion over five-years start in 2022 to support the deployment of publicly accessible alternative fuel charging infrastructure. This includes EV charging infrastructure, hydrogen fueling, propane fueling, and natural gas fueling infrastructure through 2026.
State Funding
California Energy Commission Clean Transportation Program Formerly known as the Alternative and Renewable Fuel and Vehicle Technology Program, this program invests up to $100 million annually in projects that support adoption of cleaner transportation powered by alternative and renewable fuels. Funding areas include electric vehicles and charging infrastructure, including for public transit buses.

Transit and Intercity Rail Capital Program (TIRCP)
The Transit and Intercity Rail Capital Program (TIRCP) was created to provide grants from the Greenhouse Gas Reduction Fund (GGRF) to help fund capital improvements to modernize California’s intercity rail, bus, ferry, and rail transit systems. The program is focused on the following policy objectives: (1) reduce emissions of greenhouse gases, (2) expand and improve transit service to increased ridership, (3) integrate the rail service of the state’s various rail operations, including integration with the heigh-speed rail system, and (4) improve transit safety.
California Air Resources Board (CARB)
The CARB has several grant opportunities that are focused on protecting public health and combatting air pollution. The Community Air Protection Program provides a community air grant which includes provisions for technical assistance to community-based organizations to support their efforts towards improving air quality and climate efforts.
California Climate Investments (CCI)
CCI is a statewide initiative that supports reducing greenhouse gas emissions, strengthening the economy, improving public health, and improving environmental conditions, with a focus on disadvantaged communities. This program uses greenhouse gas cap-and-trade proceeds to invest in projects that will reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
Clean Mobility Options Voucher Pilot Program
The Clean Mobility Options Voucher Pilot Program (CMO) awards voucher-based funding for zeroemission mobility programs that provide service in California’s historically underserved communities. CMO is funded by California Climate Investments and is administered by a collaboration between CALSTART, the Shared Use Mobility Center, GRID Alternatives, and Local Government Commission. CMO has made a concerted effort to center equity in its awardee process.
Under this grant program, the City of Richmond which was awarded $1 million to implement the City’s first citywide, on-demand shuttle program. Other examples in Northern California include the Oakland Department of Transportation $1 million grant for an Oakland E-bike Library. Oakland also received approximately $500,000 for an on-demand Oakland Unified Student Transportation program.
Low Carbon Transit Program (LCTOP)
The LCTOP was created to support operating and capital assistance for transit agencies to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and enhance mobility. This program gives priority to serving disadvantaged communities. Eligible projects selected by LCTOP will support new or expanded bus or rail services, expand intermodal transit facilities, and may include equipment acquisition, fueling, maintenance and other costs to operate those services or facilities, with each project reducing greenhouse gas emissions.9 9 Low Carbon Transit Program (LCTOP).

Section I. Start-Up and Scale-Up Challenges
Resiliency Considerations
The City of Glendora will also need to consider resiliency as it deploys BEBs. Because BEBs are reliant on electric charging, a power outage at the depot may mean that it would not be possible to provide scheduled service for those who depend on it. In addition, in recent years, there have also been an increasing number of power shut-offs due to wildfire risk from high winds during the dry season and excess energy usage during heat waves. If these trends continue into the future, as expected, this will only exacerbate the need for the City to have a strategy to charge buses during power outages. The City of Glendora will be exploring opportunities to install on-site solar photovoltaic panels to generate on-site power, as well as battery solutions for on-site energy storage. Grant opportunities cited in the above section could potentially be used to fund such installations to augment the resiliency of Glendora transit operations.
Cost Considerations
While BEBs have a higher purchase price than CNG or gasoline-powered vehicles, maintenance and fuel costs tend to be lower. However, due to the nascent nature of the technology this, lower maintenance and fuel costs may not materialize as expected. Maintenance cost uncertainty may be somewhat mitigated because of the contract nature of Glendora’s shuttle service. However, this remains an area of uncertainty that may present challenges during the transition period. Additionally, there are limited sources of funding for new capital expenditure. Much of the existing funding is programmed to capital, operations, and maintenance. One avenue of opportunity would be partnership or group application for small operators to seek additional funding.
Technological Maturity and Uncertainty
Cutaway BEBs are relatively newly available on the market, and their market may not be entirely mature in terms of product development. Their performance is also somewhat unproven. This may be mitigated with contract warranties and a planned spare ratio of 25%. However, performance issues could potentially lead to challenges with providing scheduled service.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The Glendora People Movement Project seeks to construct over 10 miles of active transportation improvements throughout Glendora. Urban Trails are a key piece of the People Movement Project. The three trails generally follow the Los Angeles County flood control channels that run through the City. The San Dimas Wash Urban Trail, Phase 2 and 3, is a 1.5-mile extension of the existing Urban Trail and will cover Sunflower Avenue/Gladstone Street to Arrow Highway and Grand Avenue. The project features a bicycle and walking path, native landscaping, signage and wayfinding, and other recreational amenities.
As part of this project, the City needs to acquire sections of property along the San Dimas Wash. This report seeks authorization to acquire the parcel identified as APN 8643-016-087 which is located West of Bonnie Cove.
Staff is recommending approval of the Resolution included as Attachment A for the acquisition of the property per terms of the Purchase and Sale Agreement (Agreement) included as Attachment B. Funding for the acquisition is included in the People Movement Capital Improvement Project.
LEGISLATIVE HISTORY / PREVIOUS ACTIONS
The People Movement Project initially consisted of two distinct elements: urban trails and first/last mile improvements related to the Metro A Line Glendora Station. Development of the Urban Trails System started in 2011 and has seen one mile completed in 2018 along the San Dimas Wash. The remaining Urban Trails are along the Big and Little Dalton Washes. The City is currently in the permitting and rightof-way phase to complete the San Dimas Wash Urban Trail.

Staff Report Page 2 of 2
In 2018, the City in partnership with the Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority (Metro), began planning for access improvements to the Metro A Line Glendora Station. Over the past four years, staff has engaged with residents, stakeholders, and our local partners to refine concepts and implement demonstration projects.
In March 2021, staff presented the Project to the City Council for approval to apply for a federal transportation earmark. In November 2021, staff presented an update to the City Council on the Project and the funding status.
On March 22, 2022, the City Council directed staff to proceed with final design and construction of Phase 1 improvements of the People Movement Project. Phase 1 includes first/last mile improvements along Glendora Avenue, and completion of the San Dimas and Little Dalton Urban Trails. The Congressional Member-Designated funding allows additional first/last mile improvements on Foothill Boulevard to be accelerated for inclusion in Phase 1. Phase 2 will include completion of the Big Dalton Urban Trail. Phase 3 consists of first/last mile improvements along Ada and Vermont Avenues, as well as a new walkway running between the intersections of Foothill/Grand and Carrol/Washington.
DISCUSSION
The subject property is located West of Bonnie Cove Avenue with the APN 8643-016-087 and a total square footage of 15,682. The property will be used for construction and operation of the Urban Trail project.
FISCAL IMPACT
Sufficient budget is available for the acquisition price of $20,000 plus closing costs in the People Movement Capital Improvement Project 4322101 project budget across Transit Development Act (230), Proposition C (232), Measure R (233), Measure M (234), Grants (280) and Proposition 68 (260) Funds.
The total cost of the San Dimas Urban Trail Phase 2 and 3 is estimated to be $3.2 million which includes right-of-way and construction.
ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION
City Council approved a Categorical Exemption for the San Dimas Urban Trail Project on September 17, 2015. The City will revalidate the environmental documents before construction.
The acquisition of APN 8643-016-087 is covered by the commonsense exemption under Section 15061(b)(3) of the California Environmental Quality Act. Acquisition of the property does not change use of the land or cause a significant effect on the environment.

13 Exhibit B
Escrow Instructions
1. Escrow
City and Seller agree to open escrow in accordance with Section 2 of this Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the joint escrow instructions of City and Seller, and Escrow Agent to whom these escrow instructions are delivered is hereby empowered to act under this Agreement. The parties hereto agree to do all acts necessary to close this escrow in the shortest possible time.
As soon as possible after open of escrow, Seller will execute the respective Grant Deed attached to this Agreement as the “Grant Deed” and deposit the executed deed with Escrow Agent on City’s behalf. City agrees to deposit the purchase price upon demand of Escrow Agent. City and Seller agree to deposit with Escrow Agent any additional instruments as may be necessary to complete this transaction.
Insurance policies for fire or casualty are not to be transferred, and Seller will cancel Seller’s own policies after close of escrow.
All funds received in this escrow shall be deposited with other escrow funds in a general escrow account(s) and may be transferred to any other such escrow trust account in any State or National Bank doing business in the State of California. All disbursements shall be made by check from such account.
2. Escrow Agent is Authorized and is Instructed to Comply with the Following Tax Adjustment Procedure:
A. Pay and charge Seller for any unpaid delinquent taxes and/or penalties and interest thereon, and for any delinquent or non-delinquent assessments or bonds against the Property.
B. In the event this escrow closes six months subsequent to execution of this agreement, and the current tax information is not available from title insurer, Escrow Agent is instructed to withhold from Seller’s proceeds an amount equal to 100% of the prorated amount due based upon the previous fiscal year’s second half tax bill. At such time that the tax information is available, Escrow Agent shall make a check payable to the County Tax Collector for Seller’s prorated portion of taxes. In the event the amount requested is not sufficient to pay Seller’s prorated portion of taxes due, the Seller herein agrees to immediately pay the difference.
In the event said tax information is available, Sellers’s taxes shall be prorated in accordance with paragraph “C” below.

D. Any taxes which have been paid by Seller, prior to opening of this escrow, shall not be prorated between City and Seller, but Seller shall have the sole right, after close of escrow, to apply to the County Tax Collector of said county for refund. This refund would apply to the period after City’s acquisition, pursuant to Revenue and Taxation Code Section 5096.7.
3. Escrow Agent is Authorized to and Shall:

6. Loss or Damage to Improvements

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
At the June 8, 2021 City Council Meeting, the City of Glendora entered into an agreement with Inland Valley Humane Society & S.P.C.A. to provide animal sheltering and control services to the City of Glendora. Inland Valley Humane & S.P.C.A. provides full time animal sheltering and animal control services to the Glendora community, including pet licensing, animal care and control services, including sheltering and veterinary care of lost animals, as well as investigation of abuse and nuisance complaints.
Inland Valley Humane Society & S.P.C.A. has provided these services for the City of Glendora for 13 years. The current Agreement expires June 30, 2025.
The purpose of the Amendment is to provide the City with continued animal sheltering and control services through the Fiscal Year 2024-25, with a change to the revenue structure.
LEGISLATIVE HISTORY / PREVIOUS ACTIONS
At the June 8, 2021 City Council Meeting, staff presented the Animal Sheltering and Animal Control Services Agreement.

DISCUSSION
The current Animal Sheltering and Control Services Agreement expires June 30, 2025, and Inland Valley Humane Society & S.P.C.A have notified the City of the Amendment for the continued services through the remainder of the Agreement.

Staff Report Page 2 of 2
For the past 11 years, Inland Valley Humane Society & S.P.C.A. has provided full animal care, response, and sheltering services for the City of Glendora. The City’s contractual relationship with Inland Valley Human Society & S.P.C.A. dates back to 2013 for various animal control services, including sheltering.
During this time, Inland Valley Humane Society & S.P.C.A. has partnered with the City and worked with the Police Department to provide animal care and control services, including assisting the City with a comprehensive Coyote Management Plan adopted by the City Council in October 2020.
Additionally, Inland Valley Humane Society & S.P.C.A. is working with all member agencies to continue efforts on two unified items: a fee schedule and an animal control ordinance. If adopted by all member agencies, a unified fee schedule and ordinance adopted would further streamline processes and unify information for animal control officers, licensing staff and community members within the contract cities.
The City of Glendora has reviewed and commented on the first draft ordinance, and another draft ordinance incorporating cities’ comments is expected to be circulated in the next few months. A future item is anticipated to be brought before the City Council in Fiscal Year 2024-25 for consideration.
The City will be billed for the Inland Valley Humane Society & S.P.C.A.’s cost of Animal Sheltering and Animal Control Services, minus revenue credits.
Inland Valley Humane Society & S.P.C.A. will receive and retain all payments collected for dog and cat licenses and related late fees, impound fees, kennel care fees, and court fines collected on behalf on behalf of the City of Glendora as a result of the City’s Animal Control Service Fees. Any fees collected by Inland Valley Humane Society & S.P.C.A in connection with the City’s Animal Control Service Fees will be automatically remitted to Inland Valley Humane Society & S.P.C.A. All Service Fees will be credited to the City to offset the Inland Valley Humane Society & S.P.C.A.’s Annual Fee.
The Animal Care and Control Service Agreement Amendment provides for a Consumer Price Index (CPI) annual adjustment. As an example, the increase in the Consumer Price Index from December 2022 to December 2023 was 3.5%, consistent with the United States Bureau of Labor Statistics Consumer Price Index for Los Angeles County within the same timeframe.
FISCAL IMPACT
Sufficient budget is available in the General Fund (101) for the amended Agreement. The total cost for Animal Care and Control for the Fiscal Year 2024-25 will be $450,644, effective July 1, 2024. The estimated revenue is $175,000, and the net cost to the City would be approximately $275,644 for the year.
Different from previous years, this revenue is not guaranteed and is subject to actual revenue collected by Inland Valley Humane Society & S.P.C.A. Furthermore, the guaranteed revenue in past years was $210,000, thus increasing the approximate net cost of the contract by $35,000.

TO: MAYOR AND COUNCIL MEMBERS DATE: JUNE 11, 2024
FROM: PUBLIC WORKS DISTRICT(S): CITYWIDE
SUBJECT: FY 2023-24 CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM UPDATE
RECOMMENDATION
That the City Council:
1. Receive the FY 2023-24 Capital Improvement Program Update.
STRATEGIC FOCUS AREAS
Goal 2: Maintain Financial Stability and Sustainability (MFSS) Goal 4: Enhance and Modernize the Organization (EMO)
Goal 5: Improve and Maintain the City’s Infrastructure and Facilities (IMCIF)
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
This is an update on the Fiscal Year (FY) 2023-24 and FY 2024-25 Capital Improvement Program (CIP), outlining the status of the active projects. This update also includes projects that are carried over from FY 2021-22 and FY 2022-23. Following the previous update, Public Works has completed 17 CIP Projects, carried out five assessment studies, 14 projects are in different phases of construction, 10 projects are in different phases of design and 17 projects/assessment studies are in proposal or pre-design phase.
LEGISLATIVE HISTORY / PREVIOUS ACTIONS
On June 27, 2023, the City Council approved the Fiscal Year (FY) 2023-24 and 2024-25 Two-Year Budget, which included the 5-Year CIP. Funding was approved for the first year and programmed for the second year, and subsequent years will be subject to future budget allocations. In addition, ongoing projects approved by the City Council in previous years have been carried over to FY 2023-24.
DISCUSSION
The Engineering Division has faced challenges arising from supply chain issues and unforeseen vacancies in critical positions over the past eighteen months. Taken together, the vacancies and supply chain issues have negatively affected project delivery and slowed the CIP project reporting to the City Council.
On February 27, 2024, the City Council awarded a Municipal Engineering Services contract to Transtech Engineers. Since April 2024, Transtech Engineers have been providing staff augmentation services and preparing Request for Proposals (RFPs) to carry out different assessment studies and the design of water and street improvement projects. Transtech support is allowing the Engineering Division Team to refocus their efforts on CIP project delivery.
Some of the major projects included in Year 1 (FY 2024) of the program include: Facilities: Citywide Roof Replacement and Council Upgrades/Expansion; Parks: Shade structure for Louie Pompei Park; Streets:
Antique Street Lights and Traffic Signal Modification Design; and Water: North Glendora Reservoir Design and design of water main replacement projects.
Item #15. Page 1
Meeting Date: 6/11/2024 / Packet Page #: 687
Staff Report Page 2 of 7
Some of the major projects included in Year 2 (FY 2025) of the program include: Facilities: City Corporate Yard Improvements; Parks: South Hills Bike Park; Streets: Glendora Avenue Street and Water Improvements and Traffic Signal Modification Projects; and Water: North Glendora Reservoir Construction, Watermain replacement projects and Reservoir upgrades.
Since the previous Public Works Department CIP update on September 27,2022, staff has focused on completing the construction of water, street, parks and traffic projects, conducting assessment studies, pursuing grant funding opportunities, and preparing requests for proposals for the design of CIP projects.
The Active CIP Project list, with lists of the FY 2023-24 and FY 2024-25 projects from the 5-Year CIP and projects from previous years, is included with this report as Attachment A and is available on the City’s website under the Public Works Department – Engineering Division:
https://www.cityofglendora.org/departments-services/public-works/engineering/capital-projects.
Staff continually reviews and evaluates project priorities, available funding, and makes necessary adjustments based on the resources available. The plan is dynamic and is adjusted, as is needed, to meet critical needs, unforeseen events, concerns that involve public safety and health, or changes in funding.
The summary below provides an update of recent activities – 17 projects have been completed, 14 are currently in construction, ten are in the design phase, and 17 projects are in the pre-design phase, which include citywide assessments and master plans.
Completed Projects
The 17 projects completed include six street projects, four water projects, three park projects, three facilities projects and one traffic signal upgrade project. The total cost of completed projects is $13,332,907.
Out of six street projects, two projects enhanced pedestrian crossings near six different elementary schools. Four street projects repaved the streets. A total of 341,000 square feet of pavement was ground to 2-inch to 3.5-inch with local full-depth reconstruction and repaved with rubberized asphalt. The citywide slurry seal project capped 425,292 square feet of pavement with Type-II slurry emulsion. The newly paved streets increase the Pavement Condition Index (PCI) to 100, extending the useful life by five to 15 years.

STAFF REPORT
TO: MAYOR AND COUNCIL MEMBERS DATE: JUNE 11, 2024
FROM: ADMINISTRATIVE SERVICES DISTRICT(S): CITYWIDE
SUBJECT: ANNUAL COMPREHENSIVE FINANCIAL REPORT FOR FISCAL YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 2023
RECOMMENDATION
That the City Council:
1. Receive and file the Annual Comprehensive Financial Report for fiscal year ending June 30, 2023.
STRATEGIC FOCUS AREAS
Goal 2: Maintain Financial Stability and Sustainability (MFSS)
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The Annual Comprehensive Financial Report (ACFR) is an extensive report summarizing the financial activities of the City for the fiscal year from July 1, 2022 to June 30, 2023. Badawi & Associates has completed an independent audit and issued an unmodified (“clean”) opinion on the financial statements.
This is the best opinion the City can receive from its auditors. Specifically, an unmodified opinion means as a result of their examination, testing and audit procedures, Badawi & Associates concluded the financial statements fairly present the financial position of the City.
LEGISLATIVE HISTORY / PREVIOUS ACTIONS
Glendora Municipal Code 2.20.030, stipulates that Finance shall prepare and present to the City Council an annual statement or report in sufficient detail to show the financial condition of the City.
DISCUSSION
The ACFR is prepared in compliance with the Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) standards. Pursuant to GASB guidelines, the City’s ACFR is divided into three sections: Introductory, Financial and Statistical.
The Introductory Section provides a brief overview of the City, economic outlook, operational controls and major initiatives. It also includes the GFOA Certificate of Achievement for Excellence in Financial Reporting for fiscal year ended June 30, 2023. The City has consistently received this certificate. The ACFR for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023, will be submitted to GFOA this month, June 2024 with approved extensions due to extenuating circumstances, such as implementing a new financial system and staff vacancies. However, there is an expectation of receiving the award again.
The Financial Section which will be the primary point of discussion in this report, includes the independent auditors’ opinion letter, Management’s Discussion and Analysis (MD&A), and the Basic Financial Statements. The Management’s Discussion and Analysis (MD&A) provides a narrative of how the financial report is presented and key highlights of some of the changes in our financial position. The MD&A provides tables showing comparative information from fiscal year ended June 30, 2022 to the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023.
Item #16. Page 1
Meeting Date: 6/11/2024 / Packet Page #: 717
Staff Report Page 2 of 3
The Financial Section includes multiple financial statement formats, starting with the Government-Wide Financial Statements, Fund Financial Statements and Combining & Individual Fund Statements. The Government-Wide Financial Statements are intended to communicate the financial condition of the City in a manner similar to private sector reporting. The Fund Financial Statements and the Combining & Individual Fund Statements relate more closely to the budget document and the day-to-day management of the City’s resources. Below are highlights from the financial reports.
Government-Wide Financial Statement Highlights
In 2022, the Net Position was $217.3 million and at the end of FY 2023 the Net Position is $214 million.
This is a decrease in Net Position of $3.3 million. The change in Net Position based on the 2023 activity is a decrease of $6.8 million for Governmental Activities and an increase of $3.5 million for Business-Type Activities. For both Governmental and Business-Type Activities the change is primarily represented by the City’s Net Pension Asset reclassifying as a Net Pension Liability. This is primarily due to the CalPERS actuarial evaluation measured for FY 2023. CalPERS investments did not perform favorably during the measurement year creating a pension liability and pension expense for FY 2023.
Governmental Fund Highlights
Governmental Funds include the General Fund, Special Revenue Funds, Capital Project Funds, and Debt Service Funds. The Net Change in Fund Balances for the General Fund for the fiscal year was an increase of $2,856,550 after applying the reserve policy transfers, which maintained a contingency reserve balance of $15.6 million.
General fund revenues came in better than budgeted in all revenue sources except Use of Money and Property. This is due to the recording of a loss on a fair market value calculation of the City’s cash and investments due to GASB 31 requirements. Taxes performed well due to the Sales and Measure E transaction and use tax. Property tax revenues increased slightly relating to the steady rising home values within the City. License and Permits exceeded budget by $0.8 million due to an increase in building and plan checks issued. Charges for Services exceeded budgets by $0.5 million due to increased revenue in contract classes and activities. Other revenues were generally in-line with the budgeted amounts.
The transfers out from the General Fund were done in accordance with the reserve policy that was adopted in June 2020. The committed fund balance: emergency contingency reserve was established at a maximum of 45% of prior year operating General Fund expenditures and the amounts in excess of 45% at yearend were transferred per the policy to the Capital Projects Fund ($2.4 million), Pension Stabilization Fund ($1.4 million), any deficit internal service fund and towards the City’s Other Post-Employment Benefit Section 115 Trust (OPEB Trust). In this case, $0.5 million was transferred to the General Liability Fund and to the OPEB Trust. The Pension Stabilization Fund is combined with the General Fund for financial statement presentation purposes. At the June 30, 2023, the General Fund Committed Contingencies Reserve is $15.6 million. This reserve is critical for emergencies and is relied upon for cash flow needs during the year, in particular during the first six months of the fiscal year before property tax revenues are received.
Business Type Activities/Proprietary Funds Highlights
Proprietary Funds include the Water funds, and the Internal Service Funds. The major fund is the Water Funds, both operations and capital.
The change in net position represents revenues that exceed expenditures. Per the rate study, these funds are designated for capital projects in the new budget year and to maintain reserves per the Water reserve policy. The net investment in capital assets is the value of the assets net of the outstanding debt. Net investment in capital assets increased by $5.6 million during this fiscal year primarily due to the City starting the Louie Pompei Turf replacement project as well as multiple water main replacement projects.
These funds are not spendable. Of the Internal Service Funds, the Worker’s Compensation ended the year with a deficit net position. For the Worker’s Compensation Fund the deficit is comprised of the actuarially estimated liability of open claims and judgments both reported and those incurred but not reported (IBNR). By its nature the IBNR calculation fluctuates from year to year. It is important to note the current cash balance of $2.4 million is sufficient for the annual operating cash flow needs, which is in Item #16. Page 2

addition to the monthly charges for services to the respective departments. Per the General Fund reserve policy, this year, the General Liability Fund received a transfer of $0.5 million. Although the General Liability Fund did not end the year with a deficit net position, the transfer was to mitigate ending the year in a deficit and to cover the FY24 operating budget.
Fiduciary Funds Highlights
Fiduciary Funds include Successor Agency Funds. The Successor Agency Funds are used primarily for debt service.
