☐ Receive and File ☐ Consent Calendar ☐ Business Item ☒ Public Hearing
TITLE:

RECOMMENDED ACTION:
It is respectfully recommended that the City Council:
1. Open the public hearing and take testimony, if any; and,
2. Adopt a Resolution entitled, a Resolution of the City Council of the City of Hemet, California, authorizing the annexation of territory to Community Facilities District No. 2005-1 (Public Safety Services) as Annexation No. 21 and authorizing the submittal of the levy of Special Taxes to the qualified electors of such Community Facilities District; and,
3. Adopt a Resolution entitled, a Resolution of the City Council of the City of Hemet, California, calling a Special Election and submitting to the qualified electors of City of Hemet Community Facilities District No. 2005-1 (Public Safety Services) propositions regarding the establishment of an appropriations limit and the annual levy of a Special Tax within the Community Facilities District; and,
4. Adopt a Resolution entitled, a Resolution of the City Council of the City of Hemet, California, making certain findings, certifying the results of an election, and adding property to Community Facilities District No. 2005-1 (Public Safety Services).
BACKGROUND:
The State Legislature enacted the Mello -Roos Act of 1982 (t he “Act”) to assist public agencies in financing certain public services. On September 27, 2005, the City Council passed Resolution No. 3949
14.A
to form CFD 2005 -1 (Public Safety Services) (“CFD”). On April 25, 2006, the City Council passed Resolution No. 4022, Resolution No. 4023, and June 27, 2006, Resolution No. 4053 to authorize and designate the boundary for future annexations of territory to the CFD. This is Annexation No. 21 to the CFD. The developer, Lennar Homes of California, Inc., and owner, KL LHB3 AIV LLC, a Delaware Limited Liability Company, requested that the City assist them in annexing territory into the existing CFD in order to cover the costs associated with public safety within the proposed annexation area in the form of police and fire prot ection services. Annexation No. 21 is currently composed of 1 parcel.
The territory to be annexed is to be known as Community Facilities District No. 2005 -1 (Public Safety Services) – Annexation No. 21 (“Annexation No. 21”), which consists of Tract 35393 which will be composed of 145 single-family residences and 2 parks at buildout.
ANALYSIS:
Approval of the attached Resolution is required under the Act to levy a special tax and fund certain services. The attached Resolution declares the City Council’s intention to annex Tract 35393 into Community Facilities District No. 2005-1 (Public Safety Services) as Annexation No. 21 and to authorize the levy of a special tax in accordance with an attached Rate and Method of Apportionment of Special Tax. The attached Resolution is the final step in forming Annexation No. 21 pursuant to the procedures prescribed by the Act, which include holding a public hearing and submitting the formation of the proposed Annexation No. 21 to the landowners at a special election to be conducted by mailed ballot.
The proposed annexation will have a Maximum Special Tax in t he amount of $494.14 (FY 2022 -23 rate) per taxable unit per year for single -family residential units, a Maximum Special Tax of $398.62 (FY 2022-23 rate) per Multi-family residential unit. These rates will increase by the percentage increase in the Consumer Price Index or three percent (3%), whichever is greater, of the Maximum Special Tax in effect in the previous fiscal year. The owners have filed a petition representing their willingness to move forward. If approved by the property owners and City Council, the first year of levying the special tax will be FY 2023-24.
The City Council will hear any testimony concerning the Annexation and take action to adopt the three resolutions.
DISCUSSION:
The Mello-Roos Community Facilities Act of 1982 (the “Act”) provides clear authority for the annexation into community facilities districts upon either the City finding public convenience and necessity that the territory be added to the existing CFD or receipt by the City of a petition requesting institution of proceedings by voters residing within or landowners of land proposed to be included within the annexation. The City has received the signed petitions from all landowners.
PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION:
STRATEGIC PLAN INTEGRATION:
GOAL ONE: QUALITY OF LIFE:
To ensure that Hemet is safe, clean, attractive and comfortable for all who live, work, and visit.
14.A
The implementation of this CFD will enhance the visual appearance of the community to make it attractive and reduce blight, as well as maintain public safety services as the community grows.
GOAL THREE: COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT
To connect and participate in a constant dialogue between members of the community, City staff, and elected officials to promote togetherness and positivity.
Through the implementation of this CFD, maintenance of public infrastructure is ensured, which can increase the community's pride within the City.
FISCAL IMPACT:
There is no impact to the General Fund with this action. The individual property owners are responsible for the annual payments of special taxes. The City will work with the County concerning filing the annual special tax to the County Auditor-Controller.
The property owners have posted a deposit with their application to form Annexation No. 21, in order to cover City costs incurred in connection with the annexation. Approval of this resolution does not in any way commit the City to any financial contrib ution or liability by Annexation No. 21. The City’s cost to administer Annexation No. 21 annually will be reimbursed through the special taxes charged to property owners.
ALTERNATIVE(S):
1. Do not adopt the resolutions or authorize the levy of a special tax
2. Provide alternative direction to staff

If the territory is included and the Special Tax is approved, as described below, Owner’s Property will be subject to the levy of the Special Tax for Annexation No. 21.
14.A
2 C. As a prerequisite to annexation of territory to CFD 2005-1, that the City Council adopt a resolution of intention and fix the time and place for a public hearing on the establishment of an annexation (the “Public Hearing") which shall be not less than thirty (30) nor more than sixty (60) days after the adoption of the Resolution of Intention. The Act requires that notice of such a public hearing be published at least seven (7) days prior to the date of such public hearing.
The original formation of CFD 2005-1 began with the Resolution of Intention, Resolution 3945, adopted August 23, 2005 and Resolution of Formation, Resolution No. 3949, adopted September 27, 2005.
April 25, 2006, the City passed, approved and adopted Resolution No. 4022, “A Resolution of the City of Hemet Declaring Its Intention to Authorize the Future Annexation of Territory to Community Facilities District No. 2005-1 (Public Safety Services)” stating its intention to annex territory to CFD No. 2015-1 and setting June 13, 2006 at the City Council Chambers for the public hearing, pursuant to the Mello-Roos Community Facilities Act of 1982, as amended (the “Act”).

D. The Act requires, as a prerequisite to the levy of the Special Tax, that Annexation No. 21 must submit the question of whether or not to levy the Special Tax to the qualified electors of Annexation No. 21 at a special election. The Act further provides that two-thirds (2/3) of the votes cast must be in favor of the levy of the Special Tax if it is to be authorized.
The Act provides that the qualified electors shall be the voters registered to vote within the territory proposed to be included in Annexation No. 21 if at least twelve (12) persons, who need not necessarily be the same twelve (12) persons, have been registered to vote within such territory for each of the ninety (90) days preceding the close of the Public Hearing. Otherwise, the Act provides that the vote shall be by the landowners of the territory proposed to be included in Annexation No. 21 which will be subject to the levy of the Special Tax, with each such landowner who is the owner of record at the close of the Public Hearing, or the authorized representative thereof, having one
14.A
3 vote for each acre or portion of an acre of land that such landowner owns within the territory proposed to be included in Annexation No. 21.
E. The provisions of the Act require that such special election be held at least ninety (90) but not more than one hundred eighty (180) days following the date of the adoption of the resolution forming Annexation No. 21 and an appropriations limit therefore, authorizing the levy of a special tax therein and submitting the establishment of an appropriations limit and the levy of a special tax to the qualified electors thereof (the "Resolution of Annexation").

The Act provides, however, that any such special election time limit specified by the Act or requirement pertaining to the conduct of such a special election may be waived with the unanimous consent of the qualified electors and the concurrence of the official conducting the election. As is stated below, it is proposed that such special election (the "Special Election") will be held on October 25, 2022, a date that will be less than ninety (90) days from the date of the Public Hearing and not on a date specified in Elections Code.
3. Owner desires and requests that the Special Election be expedited and held on October 25, 2022, or on a later date as the City deems necessary, which date may be less than ninety (90) days from the date of the adoption of the Resolution of Formation.

5. Owner expressly waives:
A. any right which Owner may have to conduct the Special Election within the time periods specified in Government Code Section 53326; B. any right which Owner may have to conduct the Special Election on a date specified in the Elections Code;
C. any protest, complaint or legal action of any nature whatsoever pertaining to the shortening of all time periods pertaining to (a) the Public Hearing and notice thereof and (b) the Special Election, including but not limited to, the time for holding the Special Election and the necessity and requirement for any newspaper publication of the notice of the Special Election and other formalities;
14.A
4 D. any requirement for the mailing of the ballot in the event ballots are distributed by personal service;
E. any requirement for the personal service of the ballots; and F. any requirement for the preparation of ballot arguments, rebuttal arguments and/or an impartial analysis as to the ballot propositions set forth in Exhibit D, which is attached hereto and incorporated herein by this reference.
6. The Owner warrants to the City that the presentation of this Consent and Waiver, any waivers contained herein, casting of ballots at the property owner election and other actions mandated by the City for the establishment of Annexation No. 21 and the levy of the Special Taxes shall not constitute or be construed as events of default or delinquencies under any existing or proposed financing documents entered into or to be entered into by the Owner for the Owner’s Property, including any “due-on-encumbrance” clauses under any existing security instruments secured by the Property. If requested by the City, the Owner agrees, at its expense, to timely supply to the City, current title evidence so that the City may supply any notice and ballot required under the Act for the formation of Annexation No. 21.
7. The Owner agrees to cooperate with the City, its attorneys and consultants and provide all information and disclosures required by the City or the Act about the Special Taxes to purchasers of the Owner’s Property or any part of it.

BACKGROUND:
14.B
On September 13, 2022, the City Council took the first step in the process of forming CFD 2022 -02 (Saddle Point II) (“CFD No. 2022-02”). At that time the City Council approved a Resolution of Intention, Resolution No. 2022-165, to form CFD No. 2022-02 and to authorize the levy of a special tax. At that meeting the City Council set October 25, 2022, as the date for this public hearing.
The State Legislature enacted the Mello -Roos Act of 1982 (the “Act”) to assist public agencies in financing certain public services. The developer, Lennar Homes of California, Inc. ("Lennar"), and owner KL LHB3 AIV, LLC, a Delaware Limited Liability Compan y ("Owner") requested that the City assist them in forming a district in order to cover the costs associated with the maintenance of public improvements within the proposed project area which is projected to include 145 single -family units, two (2) park parcels, and drainage channel/basin at buildout. The CFD was formed for:
• Street lights maintenance including energy charges, operation, maintenance and administrative costs of streetlights and pedestrian lights within the boundaries of the CFD;
• Conduct t he maintenance of park landscaping, including streetscape, slopes, medians and monuments specifically identified within the CFD;
• Conduct the maintenance, administration and inspections of stormwater facilities and BMPs including water quality basins, channel and any other NPDES/WQMP/BMP related devices; • Conduct litter and graffiti removal on soundwalls and other amenities, plus norm al painting as required, within the CFD;
• All other services necessary or useful for, or in connection with, the authorized services listed above, including building a reserve fund for replacement; and • Levy and collect the special tax to fund these services.
The proposed district shall be composed of Special Tax A and Special Tax B. Special Tax A provides funding for maintenance and operation of authorized facilities that are not funded by Special Tax B, including streetlights, landscaping in the City right -of-way, monuments, graffiti abatement and stormwater facilities. Special Tax B provides funding for maintenance of the (i) landscaping and stormwater facilities of Lot JJ and Lot KK drainage basins and earthen flood control channel (as shown on the mainten ance exhibit), (ii) perimeter landscape, and (iii) two HOA parks. Maintenance of the Special Tax B improvements shall be the responsibility of the Property Owner’s Association pursuant to a Dormancy Agreement with the City. The Dormancy Agreement states that Special Tax B shall not be levied in any year, unless and until, the City determines that the Special Tax B improvements have not been maintained by the Property Owner’s Association to a standard acceptable to the City.
ANALYSIS:
Special Tax A will have a Maximum Special Tax equal to $556.00 for Special Tax A and $868.00 for Special Tax B, per taxable unit per year for Single Family Residential Property, $389.00 for Special Tax A and $608.00 for Special Tax B, per taxable unit per year for Condominium Residential Property and $4,045.00 for Special Tax A and $6,318.00 for Special Tax B, per acre per year for Multifamily Residential, Non -Residential Property and Undeveloped. The Maximum Special Tax rates shall increase annually based on the percentage increase in the Consumer Price Index each March, with a maximum annual increase of 6% and a minimum annual increase of 2%.
PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION:
14.B
• On August 23, 2005, the City Council considered and approved goals and policies concern ing Community Facility Districts.
• On September 13, 2022, the City Council adopted Resolution 2022-165, Resolution of Intention (ROI) to establish City of Hemet Community Facilities District No. 2022-02 (Saddle Point II)
STRATEGIC PLAN INTEGRATION:
GOAL ONE: QUALITY OF LIFE:
To ensure that Hemet is safe, clean, attractive and comfortable for all who live, work, and visit.
The implementation of this CFD will enhance the visual appearance of the community to make it attractive and reduce blight.
GOAL THREE: COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT
To connect and participate in a constant dialogue between members of the community, City staff, and elected officials to promote togetherness and positivity.
Through the implementation of this CFD, maintenance of public infrastructure is ensured, which can increase the community's pride within the City.
FISCAL IMPACT:
There is no impact to the General Fund with this action. The individual property owners are responsible for the annual payments of special taxes. The Ci ty will work with the County concerning the filing of the annual special tax to the County Auditor-Controller.
The property owners have filed a petition representing their willingness to move forward and have submitted a deposit to pay for City costs incurred in connection with the formation of the District. After the district is formed, a special tax lien will be recorded on the property within the District and the individual property owners shall be responsible for the annual payments of special taxes. The City will file the annual special tax to be collected with the County Auditor -Controller for placement on the property tax bills. The City’s cost to administer CFD No. 2022 -02 annually will be reimbursed through the special taxes charged to property owners. The revenue from the annual special tax will be deposited into a fund for CFD No. 2022 -02 and will be used to pay said administrative expenses and for the maintenance services listed above. Both the revenue and expenses will be part of the City’s FY 2023- 2024 Adopted Budget.
ALTERNATIVE(S):
1. Do not adopt the Resolution of Formation (ROF) or other resolutions associated with this Public Hearing for City of Hemet Community Facilities District No. 2022-02.
2. Provide alternate directions to staff.

Facilities District No. 2022-02 (Saddle Point II) and to authorize the Levy of a Special Tax within City of
Hemet Community Facilities District No. 2022-02
(Saddle Point II)” (the “Resolution of Intention”), stating its intention to form Community Facilities District No. 2022-02 (Saddle Point II) (the “CFD”), of the City
pursuant to Chapter 2.5 of Part 1 of Division 2 of Title 5, commencing with Section 53311, of the California
Government Code (the “Act”) to finance certain services to serve the CFD (the “Services”);
WHEREAS, the Resolution of Intention, setting
forth a description of the proposed boundaries of the
CFD, Services to be financed by the CFD, including
incidental expenses, and the rate and method of
apportionment (the “Rate and Method”) of the special
tax (the “Special Tax”) to be levied within the CFD to
pay for the Services, is on file with the City Clerk and
14.B
CITY COUNCIL RESOLUTION NO. 2022-xxx
the provisions thereof are incorporated herein by this
reference as if fully set forth herein;
WHEREAS, the Resolution of Intention set
October 25, 2022 at 7:00 p.m., or as soon thereafter as practical, as the date for a public hearing on the
establishment of the CFD, the extent of the CFD, the
furnishing of the Services within the CFD, and the
proposed Rate and Method;
WHEREAS, on this date, this Council held a
noticed public hearing as required by the Act and the
Resolution of Intention relative to the proposed
formation of the CFD;
WHEREAS, at the hearing all interested persons
desiring to be heard for or against the establishment of the CFD, the extent of the CFD, the furnishing of the
Services and the Rate and Method were heard and a
full and fair hearing was held;
WHEREAS, at the hearing evidence was
presented to this Council on such matters before it,
including a special report (the “CFD Report”) as to the Services to be provided through the CFD and the costs
thereof, a copy of which is on file with the City Clerk, and this Council, at the conclusion of said hearing, is fully advised in the premises;
WHEREAS, written protests with respect to the
formation of the CFD, the furnishing of specified types of services and the Rate and Method have not been
filed with the City Clerk by fifty percent (50%) or more of the registered voters residing within the territory of the CFD or property owners of one-half (1/2) or more of the area of land within the CFD and not exempt from the
proposed special taxes; and
WHEREAS, the Special Tax proposed to be
levied in the CFD to pay for the proposed services has
not been eliminated by protest by fifty percent (50%) or more of the registered voters residing within the territory of the CFD or the owners of one-half (1/2) or more of
14.B
CITY COUNCIL RESOLUTION NO. 2022-xxx
the area of land within the CFD and not exempt from
the special taxes.
WHEREAS, City Staff reviewed the proposed
CFD formation and determined that forming the CFD
and financing the Services, as described in Section 7 of this Resolution, does not constitute a project for
purposes of the California Environmental Quality Act,
commencing with Section 21000 of the California Public
Resources Code and the California Environmental
Quality Act Guidelines, Article 5 of Chapter 3 of Division 6 of Title 14 of the California Code of Regulations,
(collectively “CEQA”). CEQA Guidelines Section 15378
specifically state that the term “project” for CEQA
purposes does not include “continuing administrative or maintenance activities” or “the creation of government
funding mechanisms or other government fiscal
activities which do not involve any commitment to any
specific project which may result in a potentially
significant physical impact on the environment.” (CEQA
Guidelines §§ 15378 (b)(2) and (b)(4).)
WHEREAS, the CFD is intended to fund
streetlights, landscaping, stormwater and water quality basin maintenance services, and litter and graffiti
removal on sound walls and other amenities, plus
normal painting as required within the District, all other services necessary or useful for, or in connection with, the foregoing services, including building a reserve fund for replacement, which constitute administrative and
maintenance functions of the City. Further,
establishment of a revenue stream to fund ongoing
services does not involve commitment to any specific
project that would have a potentially significant impact on the environment because the funds would not be
used to construct new or expand existing facilities.
WHEREAS, in addition to the foregoing,
because the project is a financing mechanism to fund
ongoing administrative and maintenance operations, it
can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the activity in question may have a significant effect
14.B
CITY COUNCIL RESOLUTION NO. 2022-xxx
on the environment, and therefore is exempt from
CEQA’s provisions. (CEQA Guidelines §15061(b)(3).)

7 D. Rate and Method of Apportionment of Special Tax
1. The Rate and Method of Apportionment of the special tax is attached hereto as Appendix A (Rate and Method). The special tax will be collected in the same manner and at the same time as ad valorem property taxes and subject to the same penalties and provisions; however, the special tax may be collected at a different time or in a different manner , if necessary, for CFD No. 2022-02 (S addle Point II) to meet its financial obligations as permitted by the Act.
2. Maintenance of the Special Tax B Improvements shall be the responsibility of the Property Owner’s Association as long as the Special Tax B Improvements are being maintai ned to a standard acceptable to the City. Special Tax B shall not be levied in any year the City determines that the Special Tax B Improvements have been maintained to a standard acceptable to the City. Special Tax B shall begin to be levied in the first year in which the City determines that the Special Tax B Improvements, have not been maintained to a standard acceptable to the City of Hemet. The City shall not levy Special Tax B without first giving notice to the Property Owner’s Association specifying t he maintenance deficiency related to the Special Tax B Improvements and allowing a sufficient period for curing such deficiency.
2. All the property located within CFD No. 2022-02 (Saddle Point II), unless exempt by law or by the Rate and Method of Apport ionment of the special tax proposed for CFD No. 2022-02 (Saddle Point II), shall be taxed for the purpose of providing necessary services to the CFD. Pursuant to Section 53325.3 of the Act, the tax imposed “is a special tax and not a special assessment, and there is no requirement that the tax be apportioned on the basis of benefit to any property ”. The special t ax may be based on benefit received by property, the cost of maintaining facilities or authorized services avail able or other reasonable basis as determined by the Council, although the special t ax may not be apportioned on an ad valorem basis pursuant to Article XIII A of the California Constitution.
3. In order to establish the special tax for the CFD, Harris & A ssociates has relied upon information including, but not limited to: building square footage, net taxable acreage, land use type, types of services, square footage of service areas, street light parameters, groundcover, shrubs, and trees, and plant material expected to be included within the CFD, and estimated costs to maintain which were provided to Harris & Associates by developers, City of Hemet, County of Riverside, and others. Harris & Associates has not independently verified such data and dis claims responsibility for the impact of inaccurate data provided by others, if any, on the Rate and Method of Apportionment for CFD No. 2022-02 (Saddle Point II), including the inability to meet the financial obligations of the CFD.
14.B
8 It is my opinion that the spe cial tax rate and method of apportionment, as above set forth, is fair and reasonable.
Dated this 25th of October 2022.

City Council Meeting
STAFF REPORT
Meeting: City Council Meeting - Oct 25 2022
Department: Fire Department
Submitted by: Eddie Pust, Interim City Manager
Kevin Kuhlman, Fire Battalion Chief;
☐ Receive and File ☒ Consent Calendar ☐ Business Item ☐ Public Hearing
TITLE:
A Resolution of the City Council of the City of Hemet, California, Awarding the purchase of One (1) 2023 Diesel Ford F - 550, 4x4, Crew Cab XLT for use as Type 6 Medic Patrol to Boise Mobile Equipment, Authorizing the Finance Director to Record a Supplemental Appropriation in the Amount of $312,024.91, and Authorizing the City Manager to Execute All Documents Related to this Contract
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
It is respectfully recommended that the City Council:
Adopt a Resolution of the City Council of the City of Hemet, California, Awarding the purchase of One (1) 2023 Diesel Ford F - 550, 4x4, Cr ew Cab XLT for use as Type 6 Medic Patrol to Boise Mobile Equipment, Authorizing the Finance Director to Record a Supplemental Appropriation in the amount of $312,024.91, and Authorizing the City Manager to execute all documents related to this contract.
BACKGROUND:
The California Office of Emergency Services (CALOES) purchased (81) Type VI wildland brush fire engines in 2020. Prior to the purchase, California Fire departments that were interested submitted applications to take delivery of these unit s. This is part of the statewide mutual aid program and one that the Hemet Fire department has participated in for decades. This new type of engine is built on a standard 2 ton pickup chassis, is more maneuverable and adds to the flexibility when fighting a wildland fire. The HFD was awarded one of these units and took delivery in spring of 2021. Part of the agreement when an organization takes delivery of an CALOES engine, is that if and when that piece of apparatus is out of service for any reason, the en tity that was awarded the CALOES unit will send a unit of "like type" in its place. The HFD currently cannot follow through on this portion of the contractual obligation.
Additional reasons to add this type of fire engine to our fleet is the need for a Type VI engine here within the City of Hemet. This engine is smaller, more maneuverable and can gain access to areas that our larger Type I apparatus cannot. This allows this apparatus to become a quick response unit that can attack grass fires in the early stages, and fight ones that occur in small vacant lots within the city limits.
It is also more maneuverable and can negotiate the narrow roads and hills in the mountains that surround the area.
15.A
ANALYSIS:
The HFD apparatus committee was tasked with researching options that would work for the department and allow the department to remain fiscally responsible by adding this new unit to the fleet. Local area departments were contacted and units in area cities such as Riverside, Corona, and Murrieta were used as examples of like units recently purchased for the same purpose.
After some R&D, apparatus committee members worked with the City's Procurement Administrator to create an apparatus specification and pr epare the specification to go public through an Invitation for Bid (IFB) process. After further work on the project, a Cooperative Purchasing program (HGACBuy) was found that allows products/services to be purchased by any of more than 7,000 member local governments, districts, and agencies across 49 states. This purchasing coop allows organizations to locate the best possible price for the exact apparatus desired.
After the bid process and search through HGAC, the sole respondent was Boise Mobile Equipm ent company. The model that was presented and accepted is the "Ponderosa" model and will mirror the Medic Patrol units that are in service for the Murrieta Fire Department.
DISCUSSION:
The addition of Squad 1 to the response fleet operating out of Fire Station 1 has proven to be a great addition to the Fire Department's medical response and fire response. Squad 1 is staffed with one Engineer and one Firefighter and primarily responds to EMS incidents. It also is dispatched to structure and wildland fire incidents. Being able to add this additional unit to structure fire response aids in compliance with NFPA 1710 by deploying two additional personnel for safety, division of work, and improved service to the Citizens of Hemet.
With the approval of this apparatus purchase, the operational plan will be to replace the current Medic Squad which operates off a Ford F250 pickup, with that of the new Medic Patrol Type VI. This addition will add more flexibility to what type of calls the current Squad responds t o and allow this unit to play an important role when responding to wildland incidents in and around the City of Hemet.
STRATEGIC PLAN INTEGRATION:
GOAL ONE: QUALITY OF LIFE:
To ensure that Hemet is safe, clean, attractive and comfortable for all who live, work, and visit.
Objective 3: Increase Public Safety visibility and response.
GOAL FIVE: ORGANIZATIONAL EFFECTIVENESS
To identify the work needed inside the City organization to effectively provide services to the community and ensure financial stability.
Objective 1: Operate in a financially sustainable manner.
FISCAL IMPACT:
This project will be funded by Measure U fund balance.
