AGENDA REPORT
MEETING DATE: May 12, 2026
TITLE: Approve Additional Appropriations for Legal Services with Fennemore LLP in Connection with The Anthony Petta and Angeline Petta Family Trust Litigation
PRESENTED BY: Christine Clayton, Finance Director
RECOMMENDATION: APPROVE ADDITIONAL APPROPRIATIONS OF $25,000.00 FOR LEGAL
SERVICES WITH FENNEMORE LLP IN CONNECTION WITH THE
ANTHONY PETTA AND ANGELINE PETTA FAMILY TRUST LITIGATION. 2030 VISION STATEMENT:
This staff report supports our Mission to preserve and protect our community, City Council Goal #1, “Ensure Our Fiscal Viability.”
BACKGROUND:
City resident, Ms. Angeline Petta, passed away in January 2025. Prior to her passing, she had recorded a trust along with her husband in 2021, known as the Petta Family Trust. The Petta Family Trust was amended in December 2024, a month prior to Ms. Petta’s passing.
There is now a dispute within the Petta family as to who the proper trustees are to administer the trust. Specifically, as part of the 2024 Amendment, Ms. Petta’s nieces were named co-trustees of the Petta Family Trust. They allege that the original trustees, John Petta and Angie Hisler, were too “elderly and physically and/or cognitively incapable of serving” as trustees. As a result, Ms. Petta’s nieces have initiated a lawsuit to effectively have the December 2024 amendment declared valid and confirm their appointment as the trustees. Moreover, they seek to get the original trustees to be declared incapable of serving as trustees. The lawsuit is entitled The Anthony Petta and Angeline Petta Family Trust, dated May 10, 2012 as amended December 2, 2024, in the Probate Department of the San Bernardino County Superior Court as Case No. TRUVA2500084 (the “Action”).
Per the trust document, The Petta Family Trust named the following beneficiaries:
• Susan Petta Park
• Grand Terrace Library
• San Bernardino Valley College
• Grand Terrace Senior Center
• Grand Terrace Fire Station
As written, the City of Grand Terrace is a beneficiary of the trust with the expectation and hope to receive the intended trust proceeds. While the City is not a party in the litigation, the City has an interest in ensuring that the trust is administered appropriately and that the City receives any intended trust proceeds.
On October 14, 2025, City Council approved an agreement with Fennemore LLP to provide legal services in connection with the Anthony Petta and Angeline Petta Family Trust case.
DISCUSSION:
City staff recommends approval for additional appropriations of $25,000.00 for FY2025-26 for Fennemore LLP, which specializes in this area of law, to monitor this case and ensure the City’s interests are protected.
David Werner, of Fennemore LLP, was chosen to provide these legal services based on his expertise and experience in this specialized field. Mr. Wener has more than 25 years of civil litigation experience and specializes in trust litigation. As a probate, estate, and trust litigator, he has a unique understanding of the various and complex facets of probate and trust law, as well as other related areas of the law. Mr. Werner has briefed and argued cases before the California Court of Appeal for Districts Two, Four, and Five. He also briefed and successfully argued a case that was accepted for review by the California Supreme Court. Additionally, Mr. Werner is a resident of adjacent Loma Linda. As such, he is familiar with the City of Grand Terrace.
Mr. Werner charges $590 per hour. If additional attorneys are required, their hourly rates range from $330 to $815. Paraprofessionals are billed at hourly rates ranging from $210 to $350. The firm invoices monthly for services rendered, with payment due within 30 days of the invoice date.
Additionally, a $1,000 fee deposit will be held in trust to cover related costs. The firm possesses extensive experience and demonstrated expertise in trusts and estates litigation, including contested probate proceedings, and is well-qualified to represent the City's interests in this matter.
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT:
None.

The firm's lead attorney charges $590 per hour, with additional attorneys billed at rates ranging from $330 to $815 per hour, and paraprofessionals billed at rates ranging from $210 to $350 per hour.

Re: Engagement of Legal Services
Client: City of Grand Terrace
Matter: The Anthony Petta and Angeline Petta Family Trust Dear Mr. Bolowich:
I am writing to confirm the terms under which Fennemore LLP ("Fennemore" or "the Firm") will represent the City of Grand Terrace ("Client") in connection with the lawsuit captioned as The Anthony Petta and Angeline Petta Family Trust, dated May 10, 2012 as amended December 2, 2024, which is filed in the Probate Department of the San Bernardino County Superior Court as Case No. TRUVA2500084 (the "Action"). We appreciate the opportunity to work with you.
Our representation is limited to the Client identified above and our engagement will consist of protecting Client's interest as a beneficiary of The Anthony Petta and Angeline Petta Family Trust, dated May 10, 2012 by providing Client with representation in the Action. Our work is limited to these services, including any services rendered at your request on this matter prior to the date of this letter. If you subsequently ask us to provide legal services on additional matters, we will be happy to do so provided we agree in writing to perform that additional work and all other formalities required by Client to allow for the additional scope of representation are followed and completed.
My current hourly rate is $590.00. Other attorneys, if needed, will be billed at hourly rates which currently range from $330-$815, depending on levels of experience. Certain tasks may be assigned to paraprofessionals at hourly rates that currently range from $210-$350. Our rates may change periodically. Billings for services will be based on the factors described in the enclosed Terms of Engagement.
Our office generally requires a fee deposit from new clients to begin work on a matter. In this instance, we request a fee deposit of $1,000, to be held in trust, and to be available to pay for

TERMS OF ENGAGEMENT
TO OUR CLIENTS:
Fennemore's standard terms of engagement for providing legal services as described in the attached letter are summarized below. These terms (the "Terms of Engagement") are an integral part of our agreement to provide you with legal services. These Terms of Engagement, together with the engagement letter to which these Terms of Engagement are attached, may be referred to as the "Engagement Agreement." Please contact us promptly after reading these terms if you have any questions.
1. Who is Our Client? Except as otherwise expressly agreed in writing, we represent only the person(s) or entity(ies) identified in our engagement letter (referred to herein as "you" or "Client"). Unless specifically stated in that letter, our representation of you does not extend to any of your affiliates, employees, officers, shareholders, or any entities in which you own an interest.
If you are a partnership or limited liability company, our representation does not extend to the individual partners or members of that entity. If you are a trade association, our representation does not extend to members of the trade association. If you are an individual, our representation does not include your spouse, siblings, other family members, or any entity in which you hold an ownership interest. In addition, the advice and communications which we render on your behalf are not intended to be disseminated to or relied upon by anyone else without our written consent.
If Client is an entity, we will look to the managers, partners or officers, as appropriate, of the entity for our instructions regarding the legal services to be performed, as well as for the resolution of any issues that may arise in the course of the services. California Rule of Professional Conduct Rule 1.13 ("Rule 1.13") addresses legal representation of an entity or organization and certain of its owners and employees. A copy of Rule 1.13 is available here for your reference:
Matters.
https://www.calbar.ca.gov/Portals/0/documents/rules/Rule_1.13-Exec_Summary-Redline.pdf
2. Conflicts and Consent Relating to Future Adverse Representation in Unrelated (a) To assist in avoiding representing parties with conflicts of interests, we maintain a computerized conflict of interest index. The Firm will not represent any party with an interest that may be adverse to that of a person or entity included in the index without an examination to determine whether a conflict of interest would actually be created. To allow us to perform a conflict check, you represent that you have identified for us all persons or entities that are or may become involved in this matter, including all persons and entities that are affiliated with you and the other involved or potentially involved parties (such as parent corporations, subsidiaries and other affiliates, officers, directors and principals). Nonetheless, unless this Engagement Agreement states otherwise, the Firm's only Client is the individual or entity identified as such in the engagement letter. You also agree that you will promptly notify us if you become aware of any other person or entities that are or may become involved in this matter.
City of Grand Terrace
October 14, 2025
(b) Our firm provides a wide array of legal services, including administrative, legislative, litigation, and transactional services, to many other companies and individuals. It is possible that one or more of our present or future clients will have disputes or transactions with you during the course of our representation of you or that one or more of them will ask us to advocate a change in law or policy that might have a direct or indirect adverse impact upon your interests. You agree that we may represent any existing or new clients in any matter that is unrelated to our representation of you, including matters that are directly adverse to you or in which a policy we advocate might have a direct or indirect adverse impact upon your interests.
We agree, however, that your prospective consent to conflicting representation set forth in the preceding sentence shall not apply in any instance where, as a result of our representation of you, we have obtained confidential information that, if known to our other client, could be used in the matter adverse to you and to your material disadvantage and we have not taken steps to screen such information from the lawyers representing the other client in the matter adverse to you prior to such lawyers learning any such information or where we are otherwise precluded from undertaking the representation under applicable ethical rules that govern lawyers. You hereby consent to the Firm taking any reasonable measures it deems appropriate to protect your confidential information from such disclosure or use, including the creation of a formal "ethical screen" in accordance with the Firm's internal procedures for implementing such measures. Your alternative to giving this consent to our future representation of other clients is to retain any other counsel of your choosing to represent you in this matter, and you acknowledge that the Firm would not agree to represent you with respect to the matter covered by this Engagement Agreement without your consent and agreement as described in this paragraph. (c) In similar engagement letters with many of our other clients, we may ask for similar agreements to preserve our ability to represent you. You agree that we may disclose the fact of our representation of you, without disclosing the nature of such representation, to other current or future clients that may be adverse to you for the purpose of obtaining such other clients' consent to any conflict of interest that may be presented by our representation of you and such other client. We will not disclose to the other client any confidential information pertaining to our representation of you.
(d) If we have indicated in the engagement letter above that we currently represent one or more other parties in unrelated matters adverse to your interests or if in an unrelated matter we currently represent one or more other parties whose interests are adverse to yours in this matter, and you have decided you want us to represent you, knowing we represent such other client(s) adverse to you in other matters, we have required you to sign the attached "Conflicts of Interest/Consent and Waiver," which is incorporated herein as though fully set forth. (e) If we have actual knowledge or reasonably should know that in this matter (1) another party's lawyer is a spouse, parent, child, sibling, living with, or has an intimate personal relationship with your lawyer, or (2) another party's lawyer is a client of your lawyer or any other Firm lawyer, then we have disclosed that relationship to you in writing in the above engagement letter as required by California Rule of Professional Conduct 1.7(c). Your lawyer believes you
City of Grand Terrace
October 14, 2025
will receive competent and diligent representation in this matter. If you are aware that any relationship described above exists, please advise us. Otherwise, you agree that we may represent or be represented by lawyers or law firms representing clients whose interests are adverse to yours in unrelated matters.
3. Fees. We encourage you to discuss with us at any time any questions you might have concerning our billing procedures. We charge fees that are reasonable based on criteria for reasonableness set forth in the applicable Rules of Professional Conduct, which include the time, effort and skill required to perform the services properly, the novelty and complexity ofthe issues, time constraints imposed by the Client or by the nature of the matter, the degree of risk imposed on the lawyer, the amount involved and the results achieved. As a result, fees based on our hourly rates are subject to adjustment to reflect what we believe to be a reasonable charge for tasks performed on your behalf. Standard hourly rates may change periodically, and any changes will be reflected in our monthly billing statements.
4. Billing and Costs.
(a) We ordinarily bill monthly. We request that you review any billing statements promptly upon receipt to determine if you have any questions or comments. Our billing statements are due and payable upon receipt. We ask and expect payment of our statements on a current basis, as delayed payment adds to our overall costs of providing services. Interest at the rate of 10 percent per annum will be assessed on all amounts not paid within 30 days of the date of the statement. In no event will the interest exceed the maximum rate allowable by law on delinquent payments. We bill for all costs advanced for items such as filing fees, expert witness fees, if needed, and travel expenses. Bills will also include charges for other costs, such voluminous document reproduction costs ($.20 per page), service fees, and messenger charges.
While our charges for these services are measured by use, they do not always reflect our actual out-of-pocket costs. Some expense charges include an approximation of applicable overhead incurred by the Firm as itemized to the particular expense. For many of these items, the true cost of providing the service is difficult to establish, and in some instances, the amounts charged are estimates which may exceed the actual cost to the Firm. We would be pleased to discuss the specific schedule of charges with you and to answer any questions you may have. Any changes in these routine charges will be reflected in our monthly billing statements. to
(b) We make every effort to include disbursements in the statement for the month in which the disbursements are incurred. Some disbursements, however, are not available us until sometime after the month in which the service related to the charge was performed, in which case either the charge will be billed in a subsequent month, a supplemental statement will be prepared, or an estimated amount will be included in the initial billing and an adjustment made when the actual disbursement information is available.
(c) We may require and you agree to pay certain large disbursements, such as expert witness fees, if such is required, directly to the third party provider.

(d) We look to the Client for payment regardless of whether the Client is insured to cover any particular risk. From time to time, we may agree to assist clients in pursuing third parties for recovery of attorneys' fees and other charges resulting from our services. These situations include payment of fees under contracts, statutes or insurance policies. It remains the Client's obligation to pay all amounts due to us upon receiving our statement. (e) It is the Firm's policy that, if an invoice remains unpaid for more than 90 days, then, absent extraordinary circumstances and subject to legal ethics constraints, we reserve the right to terminate representation, and you hereby authorize us to withdraw from all representation of you. Any unapplied deposits will be applied to outstanding balances. Generally, the Firm will not recommence its representation or accept new work from you until your account is brought current and a new deposit for fees and costs, in an amount that the Firm determines, is paid to us.
5. Funds Deposited with Fennemore.
(a) Retainers and Fee Deposits. We frequently obtain an advance retainer or fee deposit from new clients, and from existing clients under certain circumstances, to secure the payment of our fees and recoverable expenses. The amount and terms of the retainer arrangement are determined after consultation with the billing attorney. It occasionally may be appropriate to require an additional retainer after the commencement of the engagement, depending on payment history or on the scope of the work. The retainer will be held in a general Firm trust account in California, with interest payable to the California IOLTA as required by California Rule of Professional Conduct 1.15(a). Although we will typically hold the retainer in trust and apply it to our final invoice, we reserve the right to apply the retainer to our fees and expenses as we earn or incur them from time to time over the course of the engagement, in which case we may ask you to replenish the advance retainer at the amount of the initial retainer or some other amount. Retainer disbursements will be detailed on our billing statements sent to you. You will be invoiced for replenishment of the amount withdrawn. Non-replenishment of the amount requested within 30 days plus amounts then due may be deemed a breach of this Engagement Agreement. Any portion of the retainer unused after full payment of all amounts due to us will be returned to you promptly upon completion of our services. Any amounts due to us in excess of the retainer will be billed to you.
(b) Other Funds. Occasionally, funds due to the Client will be deposited with Fennemore for the benefit of the Client. Absent other agreement with the Client, such funds will be deposited in a general Firm trust account as described in paragraph 5(a) above.
6. Estimates. Any estimates of anticipated fees that we provide, for budgeting purposes or otherwise, are, due to the uncertainties involved, necessarily only an approximation of potential fees. Such estimates are not a maximum or minimum fee quotation.

7. Opinions. During the course of our representation of you, we may express opinions or beliefs concerning the matter on which we are working or various courses of action and the results that might be anticipated. Any such statement is intended to be an expression of opinion only, and should not be construed by you as a promise or guarantee.
8. Client Responsibilities. Recognizing that we cannot effectively represent you without your cooperation and assistance, you agree to cooperate with us and to provide promptly all information known or available to you that is relevant to the subject matter of our representation or otherwise requested by us, including but not limited to full and timely access to any documents or information that we consider to be necessary or important and any changes in the name, address, telephone number, contact person, e-mail address, state of domicile or other relevant changes regarding you or your business. Failure to provide requested information could reduce the effectiveness of our representation and could lead to our withdrawal from our representation of you.
It is essential that we be able to reach you when needed. You agree to promptly notify us of any changes in your contact information.
If you affiliate with, acquire, or are acquired by or merge with another company or otherwise become aware of information that may evidence the existence of a conflict of interest that was not disclosed by you at the beginning of the engagement, you agree to provide us with sufficient advance notice to permit us to determine whether such affiliation, acquisition or merger creates a conflict of interest between any of our clients and the other party to such affiliation, acquisition or merger.
9. Representation of Lawyers.
(a) If you are not a Lawyer. We sometimes represent lawyers and law firms, and we are sometimes represented by other lawyers and law firms, in matters unrelated to our representation of you. Because we do not believe these representations will materially limit our responsibilities to you or will otherwise adversely affect our representation of you, we do not believe these representations present conflicts of interest, including where any such firm also represents a client whose interests are opposed to yours in either a litigation or transactional setting.
You consent to our representation of you despite this Firm's representation of or by other lawyers or firms. See paragraph 2(e) above.
(b) If you are a Lawyer. Our work on your behalf will be limited to the work described in the above engagement letter. Because we may represent clients in business and litigation matters where you or your firm represents a party with interests adverse to those of our other clients, the potential exists that actions taken by Fennemore on behalf of its clients could directly or indirectly impact you and your firm. Examples are claims of conflict of interest, requests for discovery sanctions, and objections to fee applications. Accordingly, our representation of you and your firm
City of Grand Terrace
October 14, 2025
is with the understanding that you consent to any conflict of interest with respect to our representation of other clients with respect to such matters.
10. Credit Checks. Depending on the nature of our representation of you, we may from time to time request information from credit reporting agencies for the purpose of verifying or considering your credit status. Your engagement of Fennemore will constitute your authorization to perform such credit checks.
11. Renewals, Updates, and Other Filings. Unless otherwise specifically agreed upon in advance in writing, we do not undertake to complete or file any initial, annual, or other periodic report required by any governmental agency. Such reports include, without limitation, beneficial owner information reports required under federal law and annual information reports required under applicable state law. In addition we do not undertake to renew or maintain any water right or claim filings, well ownership filings, assured water supply approvals, mining claim filings, trademarks, trade names, patents, UCC financing statements, judgments or other filings unless (i) otherwise specifically agreed upon in writing, and (ii) we are currently representing you at the time such renewal is required. As a matter of courtesy only, we may from time to time voluntarily provide you with notices of future events or activity affecting your rights related to such filings or other documentation we have prepared, but any such notices shall not be regarded as evidence of an obligation to provide them to you or any assurance that such notices will be provided in the future.
12. Termination. Either of us may terminate the engagement at any time for any reason by written notice, subject on our part to applicable rules of professional conduct and our obligation to give you reasonable notice to arrange for alternate representation. The engagement shall also terminate on the completion of our services hereunder. If we have been engaged in multiple matters, our relationship will also be considered terminated if no matters are pending and there have been no communications between us for three months or more, unless otherwise agreed to in writing. You will remain obligated to pay for fees and costs incurred prior to termination.
13. Post-Engagement Matters. Unless our engagement is by its nature a continuing one (as when we are initially engaged to handle one of a series of separate matters that will be referred to us in connection with an ongoing project) or unless the engagement letter specifically reflects that our engagement is intended to continue beyond the current matter, our engagement will cease upon completion of the matter for which you have engaged us. Upon conclusion of the tasks we have been asked to perform in connection with this engagement, we will have no duty to inform you of future developments or changes in the law affecting any of your interests including your interests in the matter subject to this engagement. To the extent that we voluntarily provide you with newsletters, documents or information concerning such matters following the conclusion of this engagement, such provision shall be considered a matter of courtesy only and shall not be considered the fulfillment or basis of any duty or the re-establishment of any attorney-client relationship.
City of Grand Terrace
October 14, 2025
14. Retention and Destruction of Documents. Following the conclusion of this engagement, any otherwise nonpublic information you have supplied to us which is retained by us will be kept confidential in accordance with applicable rules of professional conduct. At your request, your original papers and property will be returned to you promptly. Our own files pertaining to the matter, which include, for example, Firm administrative records, time and expense reports, personnel and staffing materials, credit and accounting records, and internal lawyers' work reports, prepared by or for the internal use of lawyers, will be retained by the Firm.
We may retain copies of any file papers returned to you. If you do not request the return of your records, your file and records may be destroyed following the period of time specified by our document retention/destruction policy. This period may vary depending on the nature of the engagement involved. In any event, all files may be destroyed seven years following the conclusion of the engagement.
15. Fee Arbitration. In the unlikely event of any dispute regarding the amount or payment of fees, we have the right to terminate our legal representation in this matter, subject to our obligation to give you reasonable notice to arrange for alternate representation. If such a dispute arises that cannot be resolved, you may elect to use any State Bar mandatory dispute resolution procedures that may apply.
If mandatory dispute resolution procedures regarding our fees or costs have been waived or exhausted, you and the Firm agree to submit the dispute to binding arbitration. In the unlikely event a dispute is submitted to binding arbitration, there is no right to a trial by jury, and the arbitration's legal and factual determinations are generally not subject to appellate review. Such disputes shall be decided by a single neutral arbitrator who shall be a retired judge mutually acceptable to Client and the Firm or appointed by JAMS or other agreeable private dispute resolution service. Any other dispute arising out of or related to this agreement or our professional services will also be finally decided by a single neutral arbitrator who is an attorney or retired judge, mutually acceptable to the Parties or appointed by JAMS or other agreeable private dispute resolution service. The Arbitration Rules of JAMS or other agreeable private dispute resolution service will apply to any dispute for which the arbitrator is appointed by JAMS or other agreeable private dispute resolution service. Arbitration shall be in accordance with the laws of the State of California, and any arbitral proceedings hereunder shall take place in California. By signing this Engagement Agreement, you are giving up your right to a trial by jury of the dispute.
We recommend that you discuss the advisability of arbitration with independent counsel or any of your other advisors and to ask any questions which you may have prior to signing this Engagement Agreement.
16. Mediation. As to any claim or dispute arising out of or connected with our services, other than a fee dispute covered by the preceding paragraph, we mutually agree to attempt in good faith to settle the dispute by non-binding mediation before commencing any legal action or other dispute resolution procedure.

Although a member of one or more such organizations, Fennemore is completely independent and does not have common operations, share fees or collaborate on a pre-arranged basis with other member firms. If collaboration with other independent members of organizations is appropriate to serve your needs, Fennemore will discuss the specific engagement with you.
18. Confidentiality. We will maintain all information regarding your representation confidential in accordance with applicable law and Rules of Professional Conduct. From time to time we may have discussions with other lawyers for the purpose of considering their employment by Fennemore, or law firms for the purpose of considering a potential combination with such law firms.

We have implemented reasonable measures to safeguard against these risks and our lawyers maintain oversight of GenAI-generated outputs. Accordingly, we believe and you agree that the benefits of using this technology outweigh the related risks, and you consent to use of this technology.

If there are certain documents or information with respect to which you desire to maintain absolute confidentiality, you must instruct the Firm in writing not to transmit or store such documents or information using standard modes of Electronic Communication so that the Firm can take appropriate actions to comply with your request. In the absence of such instructions, you acknowledge that the Firm will use Electronic Communication in its efforts to provide efficient and effective representation, and you authorize the Firm to use Electronic Communication in connection with the Firm's representation of Client.

AGENDA REPORT
MEETING DATE: May 12, 2026
TITLE: Amendment No. 1 to the Regional Partnership Agreement for Animal Shelter Services with the City of San Bernardino
PRESENTED BY: Konrad Bolowich, City Manager
RECOMMENDATION: THAT THE CITY COUNCIL ADOPT A RESOLUTION APPROVING AMENDMENT NO. 1 TO THE REGIONAL PARTNERSHIP AGREEMENT
FOR ANIMAL SHELTER SERVICES WITH THE CITY OF SAN
BERNARDINO, AUTHORIZING THE CITY MANAGER TO EXECUTE THE
AMENDED AGREEMENT, WHICH UPDATES THE COST OF SERVICE
ALLOCATION
2030 VISION STATEMENT:
This staff report supports Goal #1: Ensure our Fiscal Viability by aligning service costs with actual utilization and maintaining a sustainable regional service model.
BACKGROUND:
On April 24, 2018, the City Council directed staff to contract with the County of Riverside for animal sheltering services at the Jurupa Valley Shelter. At that time, the City of San Bernardino was evaluating whether to outsource shelter operations or continue operating its own facility.
From 2018 through 2023, Riverside County provided reliable sheltering services to the City. However, the Jurupa Valley Shelter is located approximately thirty minutes from Grand Terrace. This distance created operational inefficiencies, as each impound removed an officer from the City for approximately one and one-half to two hours. Additionally, residents were required to travel the same distance to reclaim or surrender animals, creating an inconvenience to the public.
In contrast, the City of San Bernardino shelter is located less than five miles from Grand Terrace.
During this time, San Bernardino made significant investments in refurbishing its shelter, expanding capacity, and improving overall program operations.
On December 6, 2023, the City of Grand Terrace entered into a Regional Partnership Agreement with the City of San Bernardino and several neighboring jurisdictions for animal sheltering services. The agreement established a three-year term beginning July 1, 2024, and ending June 30, 2027.
The original agreement utilized an incremental cost model that primarily captured the cost of additional staffing required to support the regional partnership. With one full year of operational data now available, San Bernardino Animal Services has conducted a comprehensive evaluation of actual costs associated with providing shelter services.
Based on this analysis, San Bernardino is proposing an amendment to transition to a full-cost recovery model.
DISCUSSION:
The proposed amendment revises the cost allocation methodology to more accurately reflect the total cost of providing animal shelter services.
Under the amended structure, costs will include:
• Salaries and benefits for all shelter personnel involved in operations, not just incremental staff • Veterinary services and animal care costs
• Shared operational costs associated with maintaining the shelter facility • Indirect administrative costs, including support from Human Resources, Finance, Payroll, and Facilities
This approach reflects the reality that the shelter operates as an integrated system, where all personnel contribute to intake, care, treatment, and placement of animals regardless of their originating jurisdiction.
The amendment also includes a 3% annual Consumer Price Index (CPI) adjustment, applied during the year-end reconciliation process to account for inflationary increases in operational costs.
Capital improvement costs previously incurred for shelter construction and upgrades are not affected by this amendment and will continue to be repaid as originally structured through the term of the agreement.
With respect to utilization, the City of San Bernardino budgets approximately $65,000 annually for Grand Terrace’s participation in the program. However, Grand Terrace has historically utilized approximately $40,000 in services, reflecting lower-than-anticipated intake levels.
This reduced utilization is the result of proactive operational practices, including efforts by contract officers to repatriate animals directly to their owners prior to impoundment whenever possible. In addition, the City’s microchipping requirement as part of the licensing program has significantly improved the ability to identify and return animals quickly, further reducing the need for shelter intake.
Importantly, this amendment does not modify service levels, service delivery, or the City’s participation in the regional program. The change is limited to how costs are calculated and allocated among participating agencies.
The proposed amendment updates the cost allocation methodology to reflect actual operational costs associated with providing regional animal shelter services. While this results in a modest increase in cost, the City’s proactive enforcement practices and effective microchipping program continue to reduce overall utilization and associated costs.
Staff recommends approval of the amendment.
ATTACHMENTS:
• Amendment No. 1 to Regional Partnership Agreement
• Original Regional Partnership Agreement
• Proposed Resolution
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT:
This action does not meet the threshold of a project under CEQA and is exempt.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Approval of the amendment will result in an increase in the City’s cost of animal shelter services, as the revised model reflects full operational cost recovery rather than incremental costs. The total estimated increase, including CPI adjustments, is approximately $6,000 annually.
Actual costs will vary based on:
• The number of animals originating from Grand Terrace
• Overall operational costs of the shelter
• Annual CPI adjustments
These costs will continue to be incorporated into the City’s annual budget and coded to account 10- 185-255-000-000.

TITLE: 2025 Annual Progress Report for the City’s 2021–2029 Housing Element PRESENTED BY: Gabriel Arguelles, Associate Planner
RECOMMENDATION: RECEIVE AND FILE THE CITY OF GRAND TERRACE 2025 ANNUAL PROGRESS REPORT FOR THE 2021–2029 HOUSING ELEMENT; AND
AUTHORIZE STAFF TO SUBMIT THE ANNUAL PROGRESS REPORT TO
THE CALIFORNIA DEPARTMENT OF HOUSING AND COMMUNITY
DEVELOPMENT (HCD) AND THE GOVERNOR’S OFFICE OF LAND USE
AND CLIMATE INNOVATION
2030 VISION STATEMENT:
This action supports the City’s 2030 Vision, specifically Goal 3 – Promote Economic Development and Goal 5 – Engage in Proactive Communication, by documenting housing activity, maintaining compliance with State housing requirements, and transparently reporting the City’s progress toward implementation of its adopted Housing Element.
BACKGROUND:
State law requires cities and counties to submit an Annual Progress Report each year outlining housing activity from the previous calendar year and progress made toward implementation of their adopted Housing Element. The report includes information on residential development applications, approvals, building permit activity, housing production, and implementation of Housing Element programs.
During calendar year 2025, the City of Grand Terrace continued making progress on several Housing Element programs, including advancement of the City’s housing element rezoning effort, adoption of zoning code amendments related to employee housing and ministerial single-family residential development, continued processing of accessory dwelling units, and updates to development review procedures and application materials.
The attached 2025 Annual Progress Report summarizes the City’s housing activity and implementation efforts for the 2025 reporting year and will be submitted to the California Department of Housing and Community Development and the Governor’s Office of Land Use and Climate Innovation in accordance with State law.
DISCUSSION:
The 2025 Annual Progress Report provides an overview of the City’s housing activity and the progress made on implementation of the City’s Housing Element during the 2025 calendar year.
Over the past year, the City continued moving several important housing-related efforts forward. This
included advancing the Housing Element rezoning program, adopting zoning code amendments related to employee housing and ministerial single-family residential development, continuing the review and approval of accessory dwelling units, and updating development applications and internal procedures to create a clearer and more efficient development review process.
The report also tracks residential development activity, including applications, approvals, building permits, and housing production, and provides an update on the City’s progress toward meeting its Regional Housing Needs Allocation (RHNA). Submission of the Annual Progress Report helps ensure the City remains in compliance with State housing requirements while continuing to move the goals and programs of the Housing Element forward.
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT:
This action is not a project subject to the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15378(b)(5), as it involves organizational or administrative activities of government that will not result in a direct or reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment.
FISCAL IMPACT:
There is no fiscal impact associated with receiving and filing the Annual Progress Report. Preparation and submittal of the report is included within the Planning Division’s adopted operating budget.

Optional: This runs a macro which checks to ensure all required fields are filled out. The macro will create two files saved in the same directory this APR file is saved in. One file will be a copy of the APR with highlighted cells which require information. The other file will be list of the problematic cells, along with a description of the nature of the error.
Optional: Save before running. This copies data on Table A2, and creates another workbook with the table split across 4 tabs, each of which can fit onto a single page for easier printing.
Running this macro will remove the comments on the column headers, which contain the instructions. Do not save the APR file after running in order to preserve comments once it is reopened.
Optional: This macro identifies dates entered that occurred outside of the reporting year.
RHNA credit is only given for building permits issued during the reporting year.

2030 VISION STATEMENT:
This staff report supports the City of Grand Terrace 2030 Vision Implementation Plan:
Goal #1: Ensure Our Fiscal Viability by reviewing and updating the City’s development impact fee structure to ensure appropriate cost recovery and long-term financial sustainability; and Goal #3: Promote Economic Development by ensuring the City's fees are structured in a way that supports responsible growth and infrastructure development without placing undue burdens on new or existing businesses.
BACKGROUND:
On June 25, 2024, the City entered into an agreement with Revenue & Cost Specialists (RCS) in the amount of $39,600 to prepare a Comprehensive Development Impact Fee (DIF) Study. The purpose of the study was to review and update the City’s development impact fee program, support long-term fiscal sustainability, and ensure compliance with the Mitigation Fee Act and Assembly Bill 602 (AB
602). The original scope included data collection, nexus analysis, infrastructure cost evaluation, and preparation of updated fee recommendations.
On October 14, 2025, the City Council approved Amendment No. 1 to the agreement, which extended the contract term and added scope to support completion of the study, including a fiscal impact analysis, development feasibility analysis, and preparation of materials for City Council consideration. Amendment No. 1 increased the contract amount by $3,000, for a revised total of $42,600.
Since that time, the City completed and adopted the 2026–27 Development Impact Fee Nexus Study and updated Development Impact Fee schedule, modernizing the City’s fee program and establishing updated fees supported by current nexus findings and AB 602-compliant methodologies. The updated program provides an important tool to help ensure new development contributes its fair share toward growth-related infrastructure and facilities.
With the fee study now adopted, additional follow-up work has been identified to support implementation of the program, including preparation of a Storm Drainage Fee Nexus Study, targeted refinements to the fee program, and staff training related to development impact fee administration and compliance.
Amendment No. 2 is intended to support this next phase of work by extending the agreement term and authorizing additional consultant services needed to implement and administer the City’s updated fee program.
DISCUSSION:
The proposed Amendment No. 2 extends the agreement term through August 31, 2026 and expands the scope of work to include additional consultant services needed to support implementation of the City’s recently adopted Development Impact Fee program.
The expanded scope of work includes the following tasks:
• Preparation of a Storm Drainage Fee Nexus Study to establish a defensible fee methodology for storm drainage facilities and support the City’s broader infrastructure financing efforts • Development Impact Fee Program Revisions, including targeted updates to the adopted fee program, such as adding a commercial lodging land use category and revisions to the community center fee component.
• Development Impact Fee Administration Workshop for City staff, focused on implementation of the Mitigation Fee Act (Government Code Section 66000 et seq.), AB 1600 annual reporting requirements, fund administration, eligible fee expenditures, and related best practices.
This amendment builds on the work already completed through the City’s adopted Development Impact Fee update and shifts the focus from developing the fee program to implementing and administering it.
The additional storm drainage analysis will help the City continue evaluating infrastructure funding needs associated with growth, while the fee program refinements will help ensure the adopted fee schedule remains practical and responsive as implementation moves forward.
The staff training component is also intended to support consistent administration of the fee program
and provide guidance on ongoing compliance requirements under the Mitigation Fee Act.
From a broader fiscal perspective, this work supports the City’s efforts to strengthen infrastructure financing tools and ensure growth contributes its fair share toward public facility needs. It also helps reduce reliance on the General Fund for growth-related improvements and supports the City’s longterm fiscal sustainability goals.
Approval of Amendment No. 2 will allow the City to move forward with these next implementation steps and continue building on the Development Impact Fee program recently adopted by the City Council.
CONCLUSION:
Amendment No. 2 represents the next step in implementing the City’s recently adopted Development Impact Fee program. The additional work proposed through this amendment including the Storm Drainage Fee Nexus Study, targeted fee program refinements, and staff training. This will help support ongoing administration of the program and strengthen the City’s broader infrastructure and financing efforts.
This work will help ensure the City’s fee programs remain practical, legally defensible, and responsive to future growth and infrastructure needs, while supporting long-term fiscal sustainability.
The additional funding will allow the City to complete these implementation tasks and continue building on the work already completed through the Development Impact Fee update. For these reasons, staff recommends the City Council approve Amendment No. 2, authorize the City Manager to execute the amendment, and approve the requested appropriation.
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT:
The proposed action is categorically exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15306 (Class 6 – Information Collection), which applies to basic data collection, research, and resource evaluation activities that do not result in a physical change to the environment.
The proposed amendment involves professional consulting services related to a storm drainage fee nexus study, development impact fee program refinements, and staff training regarding fee administration and implementation. These activities are administrative and analytical in nature and do not authorize, approve, or result in any physical development or other environmental impacts.
Therefore, no further environmental review is required.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The original agreement with Revenue & Cost Specialists (RCS) was approved on June 25, 2024, in the amount of $39,600. Amendment No. 1 added $3,000, increasing the contract amount to $42,600.
The proposed Amendment No. 2 adds $8,000 for additional consultant services related to the Storm Drainage Fee Nexus Study, Development Impact Fee Program Revisions, and the Development Impact Fee Administration Workshop, for a revised not-to-exceed contract amount of $50,600.
An appropriation in the amount of $8,000 is requested from the General Fund to fund the additional consultant services associated with this amendment. The expenditure will be coded to account 10- 172-250-000-000.
In the long term, this work is intended to support implementation of the City’s adopted fee program, strengthen infrastructure financing tools, and help reduce reliance on General Fund resources to support growth-related capital improvements.

LANDSCAPING AND LIGHTING ASSESSMENT DISTRICT NO. 89-1, AND
TO LEVY AND COLLECT ANNUAL ASSESSMENTS RELATED THERETO
FOR FISCAL YEAR 2026-27
2030 VISION STATEMENT:
This staff report supports Goal #1 to “Ensure our Fiscal Viability by ensuring appropriate cost recovery for services."
BACKGROUND:
In 1989, the City Council established Assessment District 89-1 to maintain landscaping and lighting for Tract 13364 (Zone 1), as required by the development’s conditions of approval. Since then, the District has expanded through a series of annexations, resulting in a total of seven zones, each corresponding to a specific tract:
• Zone 1: Tract 13364 (Original District)
• Zone 2: Tract 14264 - Canal St.
• Zone 3: Tract 14471 - Oriole St.
• Zone 4: Tract 17766 – Greenbriar on Mt. Vernon
• Zone 5: Tract 18793 – Pico St.
• Zone 6: Tract 18071 – Jaden Ct.
• Zone 7: Tract 18604 – Van Buren on Tesoro Ct.
Together, these seven zones make up the current Assessment District 89-1, with each zone assessed independently based on the landscaping and lighting improvements within its boundaries.
DISCUSSION:
Each year, an Engineer’s Report is prepared and reviewed by the City Council to determine annual assessment amounts for the City's Landscaping and Lighting Assessment District, in accordance with the Landscaping and Lighting Act of 1972. The report evaluates prior year expenditures and projects maintenance and operational costs for the upcoming fiscal year, with those costs allocated to benefiting properties through property tax bills.
For Fiscal Year 2026-27, staff has reviewed expenditures and, based on the Engineer’s estimate, determined that overall maintenance costs will decrease. As a result, assessment amounts for the District will also be reduced compared to the previous year.
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT:
The proposed assessments have no significant environmental impact and are exempt from CEQA pursuant to Section 15301 of the CEQA Guidelines, as they involve the continued maintenance of existing landscaping and lighting facilities.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The amount to be assessed for the Assessment District for FY 2026–27 is $28,571.55, which will be fully reimbursed through property tax collections administered by San Bernardino County.

INTRODUCTION
The City Council of the City of Grand Terrace (the “City”) adopted its General Plan with various elements to provide guidelines for orderly development within the community.
The City Council further adopted ordinances and regulations governing the development of land providing for the installation and construction of certain landscaping, lighting and appurtenant facilities to enhance the quality of life and to benefit the value of property.
The requirement for the construction and installation of landscaping, lighting and appurtenant facilities is a condition of approval for development and is a requirement of issuance of a permit for the construction of any residential, commercial, industrial and planned unit development. The installation of landscaping and lighting systems and the construction of the necessary appurtenant facilities is the responsibility of the property owner/applicant, as conditions of approval of a development application. The City may cause the installation by property owners directly or accept financial arrangements for installation of these facilities. The cost of servicing, operation, maintenance, repair and replacement of the landscaping, lighting and appurtenant facilities in turn becomes the responsibility of the benefiting properties.
The owners/applicants petitioned for formation of the Landscaping Lighting Assessment District and/or annexation. These have been completed and will increase the City’s obligation for maintenance and servicing.
The City is administering a lighting system for the benefit of all parcels of land within the City. The lighting benefit is directly related to public safety and property protection. These benefits have been studied widely, locally, regionally and nationally.
The City formed Landscaping and Lighting Assessment District 89-1 (the “District”) in 1989 and subsequently annexed other parcels as Annexation No. 1, Annexation No. 2 Annexation No. 3, Annexation No. 4, and Annexation No. 5 to said District to ensure a fair and equitable levying of the necessary costs of servicing and maintenance of the respective facilities, which in turn will enhance the value of each parcel in the District directly and collectively.
The boundaries of the District, which include Annexations 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 are the boundaries of Zone 1 - Tract 13364 filed in Map Book 203, Pages 89 through 92, Records of San Bernardino County (the “County”). The boundaries of Zone 2 - Tract 14264 and Zone 3 – Tract 14471 filed in Map Book 242, Pages 17 and 18, Zone 4 – Tract 17766 filed in Map Book 237, Pages 41 and 42, and Zone 5 – Tract 18793 filed in Map Book 115, Pages 81-82. The boundaries of Zone 6 – Tract 18071 and Zone 7 –18604 filed in Map Book 1178 Page 18 and Map Book 1167 Page 34, respectively, of the County.
Servicing and administration of the City’s landscape maintenance program shall be according to the provisions of the Landscaping and Lighting Act of 1972, Part 2, Division 15 of the Streets and Highways Code of the State of California (the “1972 Act”).
Payment for the assessment for each parcel will be made in the same manner and at the
2026/2027 City of Grand Terrace L&L AD No. 89-1 Page 2
same time as payments are made for property taxes for each property.
The proceedings will be conducted under the 1972 Act Sections 22500 through 22679.
This Engineer’s Report (the “Report”) is presented for the purpose of levy of annual assessment to the above-described properties for the purpose of maintaining the lighting and landscaping during the Fiscal Year 2026/2027.
This Report contains the necessary data required to conduct the proceedings and is submitted to the Clerk of the City for filing.
The word “parcel,” for the purposes of this Report, refers to an individual property assigned its own Assessor’s Parcel Number (“APN”) by the San Bernardino County (the “County”) Assessor’s Office. The County Auditor/Controller uses Assessor’s Parcel Numbers and a dedicated fund number established for the District to identify properties to be assessed on the tax roll and the allocation of the funds collected.
This Report consists of the following sections:

A. ZONES OF BENEFIT
In an effort to ensure an appropriate allocation of the estimated annual cost to provide the District improvements based on proportional special benefits, this District is established with benefit zones (“Zones”) as authorized pursuant to Chapter 1 Article 4, Section 22574 of the 1972 Act:
“The diagram and assessment may classify various areas within an assessment district into different zones where, by reason of variations in the nature, location, and extent of the improvements, the various areas will receive differing degrees of benefit from the improvements. A zone shall consist of all territory which will receive substantially the same degree of benefit from the improvements.” The parcels, lots, subdivisions and developments within the District are identified and grouped into one of seven (7) Zones. Each Zone reflects the landscape improvements associated with the development of properties in that Zone, to fairly and equitably apportion the net cost of providing those improvements to the properties that receive special benefits from the service and activities associated with those improvements. All of the parcels in the District are identified as single-family residential properties within three residential developments. These residential developments have been grouped into seven different Zones that reflect each specific budget and improvements for that particular Zone. By establishing and utilizing a Zone structure, similar properties with similar types of improvements will be assessed a proportional amount for the services and activities provided by the District within each respective Zone.
The improvements are the operation, maintenance and servicing of landscaping, lighting and appurtenant facilities described as follows:
Zone 1 - Tract 13364

Section II. METHOD OF APPORTIONMENT
The 1972 Act permits the establishment of assessment districts by agencies for the purpose of providing certain public improvements, including the acquisition, construction, installation, and servicing of street lighting improvements and related facilities. The 1972 Act requires that the cost of these improvements be levied according to benefit rather than assessed value:
“The net amount to be assessed upon lands within an assessment district may be apportioned by any formula or method which fairly distributes the net amount among all assessable lots or parcels in proportion to the estimated benefits to be received by each such lot or parcel from the improvements.”
The formulas used for calculating assessments reflect the composition of parcels within the District (which are all residential properties) and the improvements and activities to be provided and have been designed to fairly apportion costs based on a determination of the proportional special benefits to each parcel within each Zone, consistent with the requirements of the 1972 Act and the provisions of Proposition 218 and Article XIII D of the California Constitution (“Article XIID”). For each Zone within the District, each parcel represents one (1) Equivalent Benefit Unit (“EBU”).
2026/2027 City of Grand Terrace L&L AD No. 89-1 Page 9
The following formula is used to arrive at the levy amount for each parcel within each Zone:
Levy per EBU (rate) x Parcel’s EBU = Parcel Levy Amount Proposition 218 Benefit Analysis
The costs of the proposed improvements for Fiscal Year 2026/2027 have been identified and allocated to properties within the District based on special benefit. The improvements provided by this District and for which properties are assessed are public street lighting and landscaping improvements. These improvements generally were installed in connection with the development of the properties within the District. Article XIIID Section 2(d) defines District as follows:
“District means an area determined by an agency to contain all parcels which will receive a special benefit from a proposed public improvement or property-related service”; Article XIIID Section 2(i) defines Special benefit as follows:
“Special benefit” means a particular and distinct benefit over, and above general benefits conferred on real property located in the district or to the public at large. General enhancement of property value does not constitute “special benefit.” Article XIIID Section 4(a) defines proportional special benefit assessments as follows:
“An agency which proposes to levy an assessment shall identify all parcels which will have a special benefit conferred upon them and upon which an assessment will be imposed. The proportionate special benefit derived by each identified parcel shall be determined in relationship to the entirety of the capital cost of a public improvement, the maintenance and operation expenses of a public improvement, or the cost of the property related service being provided. No assessment shall be imposed on any parcel which exceeds the reasonable cost of the proportional special benefit conferred on that parcel.” Benefit Analysis
Special Benefit
The special benefits properties within the District will receive from the proposed improvements include, but are not limited to:
Improved aesthetic appeal of nearby properties providing a positive representation of the area and properties.
Enhanced adaptation of adequate green space, trees, and amenities within the urban environment.
Total Balance to Levy = Levy per EBU
Total EBU
2026/2027 City of Grand Terrace L&L AD No. 89-1 Page 10 Increased sense of pride in ownership of properties within the District resulting from their association with well-maintained improvements. Enhanced quality of life and working environment within the area that is promoted by well-maintained landscaped areas and amenities. Reduced criminal activity and property-related crimes (especially vandalism) against properties in the District through well-maintained surroundings and amenities within public areas.
Increased social opportunities and leisure activities for customer’s residents and families, provided by a well-maintained neighborhood destination place for relaxation, socializing, and entertainment that is within easy walking distance.
Enhanced environmental quality of the parcels by moderating temperatures, providing oxygenation and attenuating noise.
The preceding special benefits contribute to the overall aesthetic value and desirability of each of the assessed parcels within the District and thereby provide a special enhancement to these properties. Furthermore, it has been determined that the lack of funding to properly service and maintain the improvements would ultimately result in the deterioration of the improvements and facilities, which in turn could negatively impact the properties within the District. As such, the annual costs of ensuring the ongoing maintenance and operation of these improvements are considered a distinct and special benefit to the properties within the District and are therefore considered the financial obligation of those properties. The cost of any improvement or portion thereof that is considered to be of general benefit shall not be included as part of the special benefit assessments allocated to properties within the District.
General Benefit
In the absence of a special funding District, the City would typically provide only weed abatement and erosion control services for landscaped areas. The cost to provide this baseline level of service is approximately $0.01 per square foot for landscape areas that require maintenance. Zone 1 – Tract 13364 has approximately 29,100 square feet of landscape space, Zone 2 – Tract 14264 has no landscaping area that the City maintains and Zone 3 – Tract 14471 has approximately 9,045 square feet of landscape space, Zone 4 – Tract 17766 has approximately 3,856 square feet of landscaped space, Zone 5 – Tract 18793 has approximately 4,668 square feet of landscaped space, Zone 6 – Tract 18071 has approximately 61,750 square feet of landscaped space, Zone 7 – Tract 18604 has approximately 3,239 square feet of landscaped space. The proposed budgets for Fiscal Year 2026/2027 show the general benefit amount which will be deducted from the cost of maintenance to arrive at a net special benefit assessment rate.
2026/2027 City of Grand Terrace L&L AD No. 89-1 Page 11 Assessment Methodology
This District was formed to establish and provide for the improvements that enhance the presentation of the surrounding properties and developments. These improvements will directly benefit the parcels to be assessed within the District. The assessments and method of apportionment is based on the premise that the assessments will be used to construct and install landscape and lighting improvements within the existing District as well as provide for the annual maintenance of those improvements, and the assessment revenues generated by District will be used solely for such purposes.
The costs of the proposed improvements have been identified and allocated to properties within the District based on special benefit. The improvements to be provided by this District and for which properties will be assessed have been identified as an essential component and local amenity that provides a direct reflection and extension of the properties within the District which the property owners and residents have expressed a high level of support.
The method of apportionment (method of assessment) set forth in the Report is based on the premise that each assessed property receives special benefits from the landscape and lighting improvements within the District, and the assessment obligation for each parcel reflects that parcel’s proportional special benefits as compared to other properties that receive special benefits.
To identify and determine the proportional special benefit to each parcel within the District, it is necessary to consider the entire scope of the improvements provided as well as the properties that benefit from those improvements. The improvements and the associated costs described in this Report, have been carefully reviewed and have been identified and allocated based on a benefit rationale and calculations that proportionally allocate the net cost of only those improvements determined to be of special benefit to properties within the District.
Assessment Range Formula
Any new or increased assessment requires certain noticing and meeting requirements by law. Prior to the passage of Proposition 218 (California Constitution Articles XIIIC and XIIID), legislative changes in the Brown Act defined a "new or increased assessment" to exclude certain conditions. These conditions included "any assessment that does not exceed an assessment formula or range of assessments previously adopted by the agency or approved by the voters in the area where the assessment is imposed." This definition and conditions were later confirmed through Senate Bill 919 (the Proposition 218 implementing legislation).
The purpose of establishing an assessment range formula is to provide for reasonable increases and inflationary adjustment to annual assessments without requiring costly noticing and mailing procedures, which could add to the District costs and assessments.
As part of the District formation, balloting of property owners is required pursuant to the Article XIIID Section 4. The property owner ballots include an Assessment to be
2026/2027 City of Grand Terrace L&L AD No. 89-1 Page 12 approved, as well as the approval of an assessment range formula.
The assessment range formula for District assessments may be applied to future assessments within the District commencing with Fiscal Year 2018/2019 for Zone 4 – Tract 17766 and Zone 5 – Tract 18793, Fiscal Year 2019/2020 for Zone 6 – Tract 18071 and Fiscal Year 2020/2021 for Zone 7. Zone 1 – Tract 13364, Zone 2 – Tract 14264 and Zone 3 – Tract 14471 do not have an increase in assessments. The following describes the assessment range formula:
The Maximum Assessment is equal to the initial Assessment approved by property owners adjusted annually by the percentage increase of the Local Consumer Price Index (“CPI”) plus two percent (2%). As of January 2018, the Bureau of Labor Statistics (the “BLS”) split the Los Angeles-Riverside-Orange County Area for all Urban Consumers to Los Angeles-Long Beach-Anaheim area and Riverside-San Bernardino-Ontario Area.
Each fiscal year, the Maximum Assessment will be recalculated, and a new Maximum Assessment established. Currently, the District uses the Annual Riverside-San Bernardino-Ontario CPI index to compute the CPI difference each year. For Fiscal Year 2026/2027, the percentage difference is 3.281%. Therefore, the Maximum Assessment will increase by 5.281%.
The Maximum Assessment is adjusted annually and is calculated independent of the annual budgets and proposed assessments established for each Zone of the District. Any proposed annual assessment (rate per EBU) less than or equal to this Maximum Assessment (for each Zone) is not considered an increased assessment, even if the proposed assessment is much greater than the assessment applied in the prior fiscal year.
2026/2027 City of Grand Terrace L&L AD No. 89-1 Page 13 Section III. ESTIMATE OF IMPROVEMENT COSTS
In accordance with Streets and Highways Code Section 22660(a), the City Council has determined that the estimated cost of certain proposed improvements, described in Section 22525, subdivisions (a) through (d), are greater than can conveniently be raised from a single assessment, and, as a result, shall be collected in installments and held in a reserve account. In particular, Zone 1, Zone 3, Zone 4, Zone 5, Zone 6, and Zone 7 require trimming and pruning landscaping services that are proposed to be performed every five years. The proposed assessment includes a budgeted amount for trimming and pruning to collect for these services.
The following outlines the budget to fund the District improvements based on the improvements to be maintained and the associated incidental expenses for Fiscal Year 2026/2027, resulting in the proportional assessments calculated for each parcel that will be applied to the County Tax Rolls for Fiscal Year 2026/2027. The cost of maintaining improvements for Fiscal Year 2026/2027 are summarized as follows:

SECTION 1. That the above recitals are all true and correct.
PUBLIC INTEREST

AGENDA REPORT
MEETING DATE: May 12, 2026
TITLE: Award LED Sports Field Lighting Retrofit to F.E.C. Electric Inc. for $202,106 PRESENTED BY: Natalie Oros, Department Secretary
RECOMMENDATION: APPROVE A CONTRACT WITH F.E.C. ELECTRIC INC. IN THE AMOUNT OF $183,733 FOR THE BALLFIELD LIGHTING RETROFIT PROJECT AND APPROVE A 10% CONTINGENCY OF $18,373 FOR UNFORESEEN
COSTS, FOR A TOTAL PROJECT AMOUNT OF $202,106; AND
AUTHORIZE THE CITY MANAGER TO EXECUTE THE AGREEMENT
SUBJECT TO CITY ATTORNEY APPROVAL AS TO FORM
2030 VISION STATEMENT:
This staff report supports Goal #2: Maintain Public Safety – Invest in Critical Improvements to Infrastructure.
BACKGROUND:
The ballfield lights are used by Grand Terrace Little League. Over the past two years, several light bulbs have failed and required replacement. Despite recent repairs, including work completed in February, additional lights are already not working. The current lighting system no longer meets operational standards. Continued failures indicate the system is reaching the end of its useful life.
This project is also part of the City’s partnership with the Inland Regional Energy Network (I-REN), which supports energy efficiency improvements; the City may be eligible for a financial incentive or reimbursement to help offset project costs.
DISCUSSION:
Approximately nine light bulbs are currently not functioning, resulting in poor field lighting. This has reduced the City’s ability to charge full lighting fees, causing a loss of revenue. To address the issue, the City released a bid on March 17, 2026, and received seven bids. The lowest responsive bid was submitted by F.E.C Electric Inc. in the amount of $202,106. This retrofit project will upgrade the existing lighting system to improve visibility, safety, and reliability. The new system is expected to reduce ongoing maintenance needs and energy use.
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT:
This project is categorically exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) under Section 15301 (Existing Facilities), as it involves minor alterations to existing public facilities with no expansion of use.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The base contract amount is $183,733, with an additional 10% contingency of $18,373, for a total project cost of $202,106. The project will be funded through the Park Additions and Improvements Account (Account No. 10-450-710-000-000) as part of the additional appropriations at midyear. The
City may also receive an energy efficiency incentive through I-REN to offset a portion of the cost.

(iii) Daily Reporting: If the cost of the extra work cannot be agreed upon, the Contractor must provide a daily report that includes all invoices for labor, materials and equipment costs for the work under the Change Order.

In the event any charges or expenses are disputed by City, the original invoice shall be returned by City to Contractor, not later than seven (7) days after receipt by the City, for correction and resubmission. Returned invoices shall be accompanied by a document setting forth in writing the reasons why the payment request was rejected. Review and payment by the City of any invoice provided by the Contractor shall not constitute a waiver of any rights or remedies provided herein or any applicable law.
