Adopt a Resolution of the City Council of the City of Hemet, California, Approving a Subdivision Improvement Agreement (SIA), Improvement Security, and Final Tract Map No. 35392, Generally Located West of Cawston Ave., East of Warren Rd., North of Thornton Ave., and South of Stetson Ave. (Pulte Home Company LLC)
BACKGROUND:
The property defined by Tract Map No. 35392 is located west of Cawston Ave., east of Warren Rd., north of Thornton Ave., and south of Stetson Ave. The subdivision consists of 150 single-family residential lots, 13 lettered lots for street and public utility purposes, 9 lettered lots to be dedicated in fee to the City for open space, water quality, storm drain, parkway, and emergency vehicle access purposes, 6 lettered lots to be retained by the Owner for open space, recreation, and drainage purposes.
Tentative Tract Map No. 35392 was conditionally approved by City Council on March 10, 2009. The tentative map has received time extensions to March 10, 2027.
The street names included in this Tract Map were reviewed and approved by the Infrastructure Commission on October 10, 2022, January 30, 2023, and July 17, 2023 in accordance with the Hemet Municipal Code.
ANALYSIS:
15.O
The public infrastructure improvements associated with the approval of Tract Map No. 35392 include streets (Amaryllis Street, Birchwood Avenue, Buckskin Court, La Quinta Avenue, Cedarwood Street, Stirrup Court, Kingfisher Street, Goldfinch Street, Stratton Court, Paint Court, Brodig Court, Pintail Court, Roan Avenue, Thornton Avenue, Fisher Street, and Walden Weaver Road) along with all related infrastructure appurtenances, including curbs and gutter, AC pavement, traffic controls, sidewalks, parkway landscaping, streetlights, storm drains, sanitary sewer and water system improvements all as shown on plans approved by the City Engineer and Eastern Municipal Water District (EMWD).
The developer has entered into an improvement agreement with the City for these improvements in consideration of the City Council's approval of the map and has posted adequate security to assure the completion of the required public improvements.
The project owner has formed a Community Facilities District (CFD) to fund the operation and maintenance of street lighting, parkway landscaping, irrigation, detention basin maintenance, stormwater best management practices (BMPs), and graffiti removal. A dormancy agreement will be recommended for approval to include the area within the CFD designated as special tax B that is to be primarily maintained by a home owners association (HOA). An easement is provided to the City over these retained HOA maintained lots allowing the City to take over maintenance and levy for the cost if ever deemed necessary. The dormancy agreement will be brought to the Council in the near future.
All applicable conditions of tentative map approval have been met. With the City Council’s approval of the Tract Map, the map, along with the Covenants, Conditions, and Restrictions (CC&Rs) and the SIA, will be recorded with the Riverside County Recorder.
DISCUSSION:
The City Engineer has reviewed Tract Map No. 35392 and finds that it is technically correct and in substantial conformance with the approved Tentative Map. The City Attorney has reviewed and approved, as to form, the Subdivision Improvement Agreement and the Public Improvement Surety Bond Forms.

City Council Meeting
STAFF REPORT
Meeting: City Council Meeting - Aug 08 2023
Department: Administration
Submitted by: Mark Prestwich, City Manager
Eddie Pust, Police Chief, Veronica Allen, Management Analyst; ☐ Receive and File ☒ Consent Calendar ☐ Business Item ☐ Public Hearing TITLE:
A Resolution of the City Council of the City of Hemet, California, Approving the Three Year Agreement for Services between the City of Hemet and the National Institute for Criminal Justice Reform for Technical Assistance on the California Violence Intervention and Prevention (CalVIP) Grant in the amount of $254,320.00 and Authorizing the City Manager to Approve all documents related to the Agreement
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
It is respectfully recommended that the City Council:
Adopt a Resolution of the City Council of the City of Hemet, California, Approving the Three Year Agreement for Services between the City of Hemet and the National Institute for Criminal Justice Reform for Technical Assistance on the California Violence Intervention and Prevention (CalVIP) Grant in the Amount of $254,320.00 and Authorizing the City Manager to Approve All Documents Related to the Agreement.
BACKGROUND:
The California Gang Reduction, Intervention, and Prevention (CalGRIP) grant program was a state funded grant designed to reduce gang violence through prevention, intervention and suppression strategies. From 2008 to 2016, the Budget Act annually appropriated $9,215,000 from the State Restitution Fund for CalGRIP.
The State Legislature established the California Violence Intervention and Prevention (CalVIP) Grant Program in Fiscal Year (FY) 2017-18 to replace the CalGRIP grant program, which began in FY 2007-
08. CalVIP provides funding for cities with the goal of reducing violence in the city and adjacent areas.
The Budget Act of 2017 appropriated $9,215,000 in funding, and the Budget Act of 2018 (Senate Bill 840, Chapter 29, Statues of 2018) included an additional $9,000,000 in funding for the CalVIP Grant Program.
15.P
On October 11, 2019, Governor Newsom signed Assembly Bill 1603 (Chapter 735, Statutes of 2019)– also known as the Break the Cycle of Violence Act – which adds Section 14130 to the California Penal Code, codifying the establishment of the CalVIP Grant and the authority and duties of BSCC in administering the program, including selection criteria for grants and reporting requirements to the Legislature.
The Break the Cycle of Violence Act specifies that the purpose of CalVIP is to “improve public health and safety by supporting effective violence reduction initiatives in communities that are disproportionately impacted by violence, particularly group-member involved homicides, shootings, and aggravated assaults.” CalVIP grants shall be used to support, expand and replicate evidence-based violence reduction initiatives, including but not limited to: hospital-based violence intervention programs, evidence-based street outreach programs, and focused deterrence strategies.
These initiatives should seek to interrupt cycles of violence and retaliation in order to reduce the incidence of homicides, shootings, and aggravated assaults. Further, these initiatives shall be primarily focused on providing violence intervention services to the small segment of the population that is identified as having the highest risk of perpetrating or being victimized by violence in the near future.
ANALYSIS:
The California Violence and Intervention Prevention Funds have previously awarded grant funding to cities like Stockton, Bakersfield, and Oakland, California. In the most recent Cohort 4 round in which the City of Hemet received an award, the City competed against other cities that also received CalVIP grant funding, including Fresno, Vallejo, Antioch, and Chula Vista, California (receiving larger grant funding allocations).
DISCUSSION:
The City of Hemet issued a Request for Proposal (Attachment 1) which closed on June 30, 2023. Only one organization, the National Institute for Criminal Justice Reform (NICJR), out of 222 notified vendors, submitted a bid (Attachment 2). The NICJR was recommended by Stewart Wakeling, the contractor who worked with the City to complete the CalVIP grant application. Initially, Mr. Wakeling was going to be the technical assistance contractor for the grant program but backed out due to health issues.
The NICJR works with an array of government agencies, nonprofit organizations, and philanthropic foundations to provide technical assistance, consulting, research, organizational development, and advocacy in the fields of violence reduction, juvenile and criminal justice, and youth development.
The NICJR possesses extensive experience supporting violence reduction initiatives throughout the U.S., including currently providing training and technical assistance (TTA) for the design, implementation, and refinement of gun violence reduction strategies (GVRS) in 14 jurisdictions. The NICJR currently supports the City of Bakersfield in implementing a CalVIP-funded focus deterrence initiative with a cognitive behavioral therapy component. Other cities the NICJR has worked with or is currently working with include Indianapolis, Indiana; Portland, Oregon; Oakland and Bakersfield, California.
Adoption of the proposed Resolution (Attachment 3) is recommended to authorize a contract with the National Institute for Criminal Justice Reform to provide technical assistance on the CalVIP grant project.
15.P
PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION:
On July 12, 2022, this item was presented to the Hemet City Council to approve the resolution to accept the CalVIP grant award in the amount of $963,573.
On February 8, 2022, this item was presented to the Hemet City Council to approve the resolution to approve the grant application for the California Violence Intervention and Prevention Funds and authorize the City Manager to execute all documents.
STRATEGIC PLAN INTEGRATION:
GOAL FOUR: PARTNERSHIP & COLLABORATION
To pursue partnerships that will increase the opportunities available to the community, including our businesses, unemployed, and youth populations.
The proposed action aligns with Council's adopted objective:
Objective 2: Develop concepts and programs to enhance the quality of life services.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Additional discretionary funding is not required from the General Fund. Resources required to fund the Technical Assistance contract are provided by the CalVIP grant. The budget for grant expenditures was established in July 2022 in account 232-3121-2710.
ALTERNATIVE(S):
The Council can choose to reject the agreement for CalVIP Technical Assistance Services between the City of Hemet and the National Institute for Criminal Justice Reform. This will result in the CalVIP program being unable to move forward.

NICJR works with an array of government agencies, nonprofit organizations, and philanthropic foundations to provide technical assistance, consulting, research, organizational development, and advocacy in the fields of violence reduction, juvenile and criminal justice, and youth development.
NICJR possesses extensive experience supporting violence reduction initiatives throughout the US, including currently providing training and technical assistance (TTA) for the design, implementation, and refinement of gun violence reduction strategies (GVRS) in 14 jurisdictions. NICJR’s work in several of these jurisdictions is highlighted below, along with our experience supporting a CalVIP-funded initiative in the City of Bakersfield, CA and planning and leading the National Offices of Violence Prevention Network.
Indianapolis, IN: After local faith and community leaders advocated to the Mayor and City/County Council to implement an effective strategy to reduce violence, the City of Indianapolis entered into a partnership with NICJR in 2019 to conduct a series of analyses and implement a GVRS.
NICJR first developed a landscape assessment of local violence prevention programs and initiatives that also offered a series of recommendations to the City. The first recommendation was to conduct a detailed analysis of shootings and homicides in Indianapolis (a Gun Violence Problem Analysis). The City contracted with NICJR to conduct that analysis, which examined every homicide and non-fatal shooting in the city over a two-year period. That analysis was used to determine the focus of the new GVRS.
NICJR currently provides ongoing TTA to the Indianapolis Office of Public Health and Safety, which manages 70 violence intervention workers and supervisors. NICJR has also worked with the Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department to implement a weekly review of shootings in the city, to identify incidents that are likely to have retaliation and individuals in need of immediate intervention. NICJR has also supported the City in creating a management process for those very-high-risk individuals to be identified, referred to violence intervention services, and intensely engaged.
The work of the City of Indianapolis and NICJR has already shown significant success. A recent press conference with the Mayor and NICJR announced a sustained reduction of homicides and injury shootings in the city of nearly 20%, more than the city has ever experienced.
Portland, Oregon: NICJR has provided comprehensive support to the Portland Office of Violence Prevention (OVP) in developing, implementing, and refining a GVRS since 2019. Our foundational work
15.P
3 with Portland included activities such as developing a Gun Violence Problem Analysis report, assessing the OVP’s processes and tools for risk assessment and coordination with law enforcement and other partners; developing performance indicators, along with the tools and processes to assess progress relative to those indicators; developing and implementing a Life Coaching program policies and procedures manual with position descriptions, forms, and detailed guidance for staff; conducting a Cost of Violence study; and assessing funding needs to provide recommendations for long-term financial sustainability.
After the first few years of technical assistance, the City was not able to fully implement the GVRS as proposed by NICJR due to the COVID-19 pandemic and significant staff turnover. NICJR has recently reengaged with Portland, however, as the City has re-committed to the strategy. Subsequent activities have included developing a comprehensive Community-based Violence Reduction Strategy report; providing Intensive Life Coaching, Street Outreach, and Professional Development trainings; providing a train-the-trainer course with follow-up coaching for NICJR’s cognitive behavioral therapy program, Healthy Wealthy and Wise; and providing ongoing on-site and virtual TA to the OVP Director and other key staff as they implement the City’s GVRS. We have also supported the City in improving its Shooting Reviews and Coordination Meetings, among other activities.
Oakland, CA: NICJR has provided technical assistance to Oakland Ceasefire, the City’s GVRS, since our organization was founded in 2017. Additionally, NICJR Executive Director David Muhammad has played a key role in Oakland Ceasefire since the strategy launched in 2012. This initiative was credited with being the primary cause of a 50% reduction in injury shootings and homicides in Oakland over the course of six years—an outcome that was verified through a rigorous external academic evaluation. In the years since Oakland Ceasefire was founded, our team has played a key role in conducting the initial Problem Analysis that informed Oakland Ceasefire’s design; supporting the establishment and refinement of tools and protocols for weekly shooting reviews, call-ins and individual notifications, and life coaching; and training city staff and community-based organizations. NICJR is also providing subgrants to several local community-based organizations in Oakland to further the City’s GVRS.
Bakersfield CalVIP TTA: NICJR has extensive experience developing, implementing, and providing training in innovative approaches to youth and young adult development. This includes the Positive Youth Development (PYD) framework, a strength-based and youth-involved development process designed to guide young people in reaching their full potential; the NICJR Healthy, Wealthy & Wise program, which features a culturally relevant, trauma-informed cognitive behavioral therapy curriculum developed to reach at-risk and very high-risk youth and young adults and change the mentality that gives rise to destructive behaviors; and the Intensive Life Coaching/Credible Messenger training for community-based organizations and government agencies seeking to provide intensive and effective intervention to at-risk and high-risk youth and young adults. NICJR has provided these trainings, along with follow-up coaching and TA, to government employees and community-based organizations in jurisdictions throughout the US.
For example, as part of its CalVIP-funded focused deterrence initiative, the City of Bakersfield, CA has contracted NICJR to support the development of a client needs assessment; provide TA to communitybased organizations responsible for assessing clients; conduct a Cost of Violence analysis; and support the development, implementation, and refinement of initiative operational components such as analysis, communication, intervention, and procedurally just local evaluation strategies. As a part of this work, NICJR is providing the Healthy, Wealthy & Wise curriculum, along with train-the-trainer training.
15.P
4 National Offices of Violence Prevention Network (NOVPN): Beginning in 2019, NICJR collaborated with the Center for American Progress and a group of OVP directors to organize, plan, and coordinate the creation of the NOVPN, which was launched in 2021 with a membership of 21 established OVPs. With numerous cities and counties currently advancing existing OVPs or creating new OVPs, the NOVPN has expanded to include to more than 37 agencies, with no sign of growth slowing. This first-of-its-kind network serves as a learning community with the goal of significantly increasing the expertise and effectiveness of participating agencies. The NOVPN hosts virtual convenings; provides trainings on effective violence reduction practices; coordinates cross-OVP learning exchanges and site visits; offers leadership and management development; and supports OVPs in growing their capacity for data collection and reporting, fund development, and media relations. The NOVPN also supports the creation of new OVPs in jurisdictions interested in developing such agencies and leads communications efforts to advocate for their creation with city leaders, policymakers, and other stakeholders. NICJR hosted the first annual in-person NOVPN gathering in Washington, DC in November 2022, which was attended by more than 100 staff from OVPs across the nation. Notably, the jurisdictions we directly support in developing and implementing GVRS also benefit from NOVPN membership, as it connects them to a larger community of practitioners and ensures they have continued access to light-touch TA beyond the life of our direct service contract.

STAFF REPORT
Meeting: City Council Meeting - Aug 08 2023
Department: Administration
Submitted by: Mark Prestwich, City Manager
Mark Prestwich, City Manager;
☐ Receive and File ☐ Consent Calendar ☒ Business Item ☐ Public Hearing TITLE:
Discussion and Consideration of Options to Enhance Security at the City of Hemet Skate Plaza in Gibbel Park
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
It is respectfully recommended that the City Council:
Review and Discuss City of Hemet Skate Plaza Security Enhancement Options and Provide Direction to the City Manager.
BACKGROUND:
At the City Council's June 27, 2023, Regular Council meeting, the City Council approved a three-year agreement with 9th Shield in the amount of $267,960 to provide security and inspection services for the City of Hemet's parks, Corporation Yard, and Library. During the discussion on the 9th Shield agreement, the City Council expressed interest in enhancing security measures for the Hemet Skate Plaza at Gibbel Park when it opens later this year. Direction was provided to the City Manager to research and present potential enhanced security options at the City Council meeting on August 8, 2023.
ANALYSIS:
City staff has identified several options to enhance security at the future Hemet Skate Plaza. The Council may desire to utilize multiple strategies among the alternatives and their costs presented below, which include lighting, fencing, security services, and webcam/streaming options.
16.A
DISCUSSION:
Lighting
In August 2019, the City received the attached Skate Park Feasibility Study from Stantec and Newline Skateparks which included recommendation for lighting (see page 44 of the Study). The estimated cost to install the recommended lighting (adjusted for inflation) is estimated at $115,000. A revised lighting design was done to match the final project design in October 2022 and is attached for reference. The updated plan increased the number of fixtures from nine to twelve to match the final facility design.
While updated pricing was not included, it is expected to increase costs by approximately 25 percent.
To ensure maximum community access to the City's new amenity, it is recommended the City invest in lighting to augment the available useful hours of the facility which also enhances security. Controls can be incorporated into the design to allow lights to turn off at a prescribed operating hour. The City has pursued a grant from the California Department of Parks and Recreation to fund 50 percent of the lighting installation. Additional funding is available via American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) funds or General Fund surplus to support the lighting investment.
It is possible that the sports lighting could be programmed for use as security lighting after facility operating hours.
Fencing
Should the Council desire construction of a fence, it is recommended that the material consist of highquality wrought iron to ensure longevity and security. Visibility of the Skate Plaza through the fence is critical to ensure ease of monitoring the area.
Staff received a quote of approximately $50,000 (attached for reference) for a curved-top, 7 feet tall, wrought iron fence for the skate plaza.
Security Services
The City has the ability to amend its contract with 9th Shield to provide armed, uniformed security patrols to enhance the protection of the Skate Plaza. Three-month and one-year cost options are presented and attached to this report. The three-month options range from $30,240 to $104,640, and the one-year options range from $118,400 to $412,000.
Webcam/Streaming Camera
City staff is recommending the installation of a 24/7 webcam for the community to view, along with signs posted at the Skate Plaza informing users of the live feed. The proposed webcam would include a high-quality HD camera (1080p at 30 frames per second) and video recording in case video history was needed. The estimated cost of purchase and installation is $10,000, with estimated annual recurring costs of approximately $5,000 to operate, including monthly internet connectivity and streaming services. The recommended camera solution is identical to the solution used at the City of Lake Forest's Etnies Skatepark.

6 City of Hemet
1.0 Background
Over the last decade a number of requests have been made to the City of Hemet City Council and executive staff to consider bringing a skate boarding facility to the City to provide youth in the valley with additional recreation opportunities. As the median age of the population of the City has decreased to under 40, the need for recreation facilities to support all types of activities, for all ages and capabilities, has increased. Recognizing the positive benefits of a skate park to provide an area for safe recreation and to promote both physical and mental health, the City Council gave direction to staff to begin discussions about what an outdoor skate facility would look like and how it would best serve the community.
On June 9, 2016, we met with Mayor Bonnie Wright and key City staff to discuss the potential for future City projects. In May 2018, Stantec was hired by the City of Hemet to study the feasibility of installing a skate park. The purpose of this study is to look at the pros and cons of having a skate park at different locations to see if it is feasible to have a skate park within the City of Hemet.
There are currently no skate parks within the City of Hemet. There are some residents advocating for a skate park to provide a place for their kids to recreate safely with their skateboards. There is also a concern about finding a location that has minimal impact to an existing site and to nearby residents to minimize conflicts.
In this study we were tasked to identifying the most appropriate location for the proposed facility, and we completed in-depth site selection process that included two community input meetings on the preferred locations.
This study highlights the process followed to determine the pros and cons of having a skate park at each site, gives an overview of the public consultation that took place, examines the top three potential sites, and outlines the rationale for the ultimate conclusion and subsequent recommendation for the final skate park location. The exact location, size and shape of the skate park on the recommended site will be determined from the design phase of the process.
