Steven Graham, City Attorney;
☐ Receive and File ☐ Consent Calendar ☒ Business Item ☐ Public Hearing
TITLE:
An Ordinance of the City Council of the City of Hemet, California, Amending the Hemet Municipal Code to Authorize Storefront Commercial Cannabis Businesses
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
It is respectfully recommended that the City Council:
Waive the full reading and introduce the Ordinance of the City Council of the City of Hemet, California, Amending the Hemet Municipal Code to Authorize Storefront Commercial Cannabis Businesses and direct the City Clerk to set a second reading and adoption at the next regular meeting on the consent calendar.
BACKGROUND:
The City Council directed the City Attorney to draft revisions to the Hemet Municipal Code to authorize the operation of storefront retail cannabis businesses.
The proposed revisions are shown with additional text underlined and removed text being struck through.
1. Section 18-508 of the Hemet Municipal Code is proposed to be amended to read as follows:
Sec. 18-508. Maximum number and type of authorized commercial cannabis businesses permitted.
The number of each type of commercial cannabis business that shall be permitted to operate in the city shall be established by resolution by the city council.
(a) Section 18-508 is only intended to create a maximum number of commercial cannabis businesses that may be issued permits to operate in the city under each category. Nothing in this article creates a mandate that the city must issue any or all of the commercial cannabis business permits if it is
24.A
determined that the applicants do not meet the standards which are established in the application requirements or further amendments to the application process or that the city council upon further deliberation determines that the issuance of any or all commercial cannabis business permits will impact the public safety, welfare or other policy concerns which may be detrimental in the issuance of these permits.
(b) At any time in the city council's discretion the city council may reassess the number of commercial cannabis business permits which are authorized for issuance.
(c) Notwithstanding the provisions of subsections (a) and (b) above, for storefront retail cannabis businesses, the maximum number of such businesses authorized to do business in the city shall not exceed one business per seventeen thousand five hundred (17,500) residents of the city.
2. Section 18-525 of the Hemet Municipal Code is proposed to be amended to read as follows:
Sec. 18-525. Location and design of cannabis businesses.
Cannabis businesses permitted to engage in cultivation, distribution, manufacturing, retail, and testing lab for cannabis and cannabis products are subject to the following zoning and locational requirements:
(a) Cultivation, distribution, manufacturing, microbusiness, and testing labs must be zoned in the following: (general manufacturing), (limited M-2 manufacturing), (commercial C-M M-1 manufacturing), and must meet all of the requirements for development in these zones. The cannabis businesses must also meet all of the following distance requirements:
(1) It shall be no closer than 1,000 feet from any zoned parcel in the city designated by state law as a sensitive use, and pursuant to subsection 18-525(a)(3). The distance measured shall be the horizontal distance measured in a straight line from the property line of those parcels in subsection 18-525(a)(3) to the closest property line of the lot on which the cannabis business is located.
(2) It shall be no closer than 1,000 feet of any residentially zoned parcel, or any non-residentially zoned parcel containing a legal non-conforming residential use, as of the date the cannabis business permit is issued. The distance between the cannabis business and the residential parcel shall be measured from the outer boundaries of the residential parcel to the first structure on the property seeking the commercial cannabis permit.
(3) It shall be no closer than 1,000 feet from any parcel containing any of the following:
a. A school providing instruction in kindergarten or any grades 1 through 12, (whether public, private, or charter, including pre-school, transitional kindergarten, and K—12); or
b. A commercial daycare center licensed by the state, county, or city or that is in existence at the time the license is issued, unless the state licensing authority or the city specifies a different radius; or
c. A youth center that is in existence at the time the license is issued unless the state licensing authority or the city specifies a different radius.
24.A
(b) Storefront retail businesses must be located in the C-2 (Commercial General) zone of the city and must meet all of the requirements for development in these zones. The retail business must also (1) be no closer than 1,000 feet from any other cannabis retail business and (2) be no closer than 500 feet to any of the uses described in subsection (a)(3) above. For the purposes of this subsection (b) distances shall be measured along the shortest path of travel between the entrance to the retail business and the structure containing the use described in subsections (b)(1) and (b)(2) above.
Retail activity may only be conducted as an ancillary part of a microbusiness that meets the requirements of subsection (a) above.
(c) Each proposed cannabis business project shall:
(1) Conform with the city's general plan, any applicable specific plans, master plans, and design requirements.
(2) Comply with all applicable: Zoning and related development standards, including but not limited to, parking.
(3) Be constructed in a manner that minimizes odors to surrounding uses, and promotes quality design and construction, and consistency with the surrounding properties.
(4) Be adequate in size and shape to accommodate the yards, walls, fences, parking and loading facilities, landscaping, and all items required for the development.
(5) Be served by highways adequate in width and improved as necessary to carry the kind and quantity of traffic such use will generate.
ANALYSIS:
According to the California Department of Finance Population Estimate for January 1, 2024, Hemet is estimated to have a Total Population of 89,663. The amendment to Hemet Municipal Code Section 18-508 would authorize up to five (5) storefront cannabis retail locations within the City of Hemet based on the population formula used at one retail location per 17,500 residents. The number of available permits for storefront retail cannabis would not increase until the City of Hemet's population reaches 105,000.
The amendments to Section 18-525 would allow storefront retail cannabis businesses to operate in the C-2 Commercial Zone subject to several sensitive use buffers, including a minimum distance from other cannabis businesses (to avoid concentration).

TITLE:
A Resolution of the City Council of the City of Hemet, California, Awarding the Purchase of a Commander Tractor Drawn Aerial Apparatus (TDA) from Rosenbauer in the Amount of $2,154,876, and Authorizing the Administrative Services Director to Record a Supplemental Appropriation in the Amount of $1,174,210 to Fund 332 and $980,666 to Fund 380 for the Purchase, and Authorizing the City Manager to Execute All Documents Regarding the Purchase Order
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 a Commander Tractor Drawn Aerial Apparatus (TDA) from Rosenbauer in the Amount of $2,154,876, and Authorizing the Administrative Services Director to Record a Supplemental Appropriation in the Amount of $1,174,210 to Fund 332 and $980,666 to Fund 380 for the Purchase, and Authorizing the City Manager to Execute All Documents Regarding the Purchase Order.
BACKGROUND:
The Hemet Fire Department has one tractor drawn aerial truck company, currently assigned as Truck 4, housed at Fire Station 4. Truck 4 is considered "front line" which means it is able to respond 24/7/365. This truck is currently crossed-staffed which means the crew needs to remove gear from the adjacent engine vehicle and move it to the truck prior to response. This is done because the existing truck does not have a pump, a tank, or water. The crews primarily respond on the fire engine, but when a call is received that would require the specialized equipment contained on the TDA, the crew will take the Engine out-of-service and move to the Truck for response.
Truck 4 is a 2007 Kovatch Tiller with approximately 43,000 miles. This 17 year-old piece of equipment has served the City well; however, the City has seen a drastic increase in required repairs, with difficulty in obtaining parts. Since 2020, Truck 4 has incurred $38,199.88 in repair costs. The National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) standard 1900 suggests that an apparatus should provide 15 years of frontline service and then be turned over for reserve status. A Fire apparatus that is older than 15 years should be evaluated for rebuilding in accordance with NFPA 1912: Standard for Fire
24.C
Apparatus Refurbishing. NFPA 1901’s Annex D further recommends that an apparatus more than 25 years old should be retired from the vehicle fleet.
ANALYSIS:
A tractor drawn aerial (TDA) is the most maneuverable type of fire apparatus because of its unique design consisting of three distinct parts: a tractor, a trailer and a tillerman's cab. Tractor drawn aerials can be traced back to the late 1800s when the trailers, pulled by horses, were given rear steering.
Today, tractor-drawn aerials are known for their maneuverability and ability to carry many ground ladders and equipment. A tractor drawn aerial is designed to have two operators. The main driver sits in the front cab and steers the front axle and the other sits in the rear tiller cab and steers the rear axle. When required for maintenance, the rear axle can be locked and the front operator can drive the truck like a tractor trailer. The sheer size of a tractor drawn aerial means that it offers ample storage.
In fact, the compartment volume for the apparatus can be as much as 650 cubic feet. That is a significant increase when comparing it to a straight-frame aerial with typically less than 200 cubic feet.
Moreover, a tiller can typically manage 4000 lbs. or more of equipment.
Tractor drawn aerials provide fire departments with superior capacity and flexibility in storing tools and equipment. With the increased storage capabilities, tractor drawn aerials can accommodate more ground ladders than straight-frame aerials. This is due to a significantly larger rear storage area from the added length of a trailer and the absence of a torque box and pedestal typically found on straight frame aerials. In addition, even more ground ladders can be stored on the outside of the trailer.
The TDA being offered by Rosenbauer contains all the storage and ground ladders of a traditional tractor drawn aerial; however, this apparatus also contains a pump, a water tank, and a compliment of hose. These five elements (pump, tank, hose, aerial ladder, and ground ladders) comprise the definition of a quintuple combination pumper, or “Quint”. This gives this apparatus both the attributes of a ladder truck and of a fire engine.
Operationally, this piece of equipment will allow HFD to utilize the truck in a “first-out” capacity as it has the fire suppression capabilities of an engine, and the ventilation, auto extrication, and rescue capabilities of a truck. This will allow HFD to place this unit into service when received, without the delay of additional recruitment for additional positions.
Currently the crews at Fire Station 4 respond primarily on a 2002 Type -1 fire engine. If they are dispatched to a call that requires the TDA such as a structure fire, a vehicle collision where extrication is indicated, a rescue, or other specialized response, the crew will move their personal protective gear to the truck and respond creating a delay in response time. Having the new TDA will eliminate the need to transfer gear and reduce the time it takes for the older apparatus to start up. This leads to an overall reduction in time until the truck arrives on scene of the incident.
DISCUSSION:
During the COVID pandemic, many fire apparatus manufacturers struggled financially causing them to shut down factories, lay off workers and merge with other companies through buyouts. This has caused supply and demand issues and, with inflation, has dramatically increased the cost of fire apparatus across the board. The Hemet Fire Department has historically purchased trucks from KME.
Currently, KME has an estimated build time of nearly four years. Additionally, the price of trucks manufactured by KME, as well as other manufacturers, have experienced significant price increases so Hemet Fire decided to obtain a quote for the purchase of a truck from a third manufacturer,
24.C
Rosenbauer. This manufacturer has gained popularity throughout the industry with many agencies switching to the company due to shorter build times. Agencies such as Los Angeles County Fire, Ventura County Fire, Rancho Cucamonga Fire, and Chino Valley Fire District have made the transition to Rosenbauer to build their trucks.
When Rosenbauer was contacted they advised of a brand-new, nearly completed, unit that is being built to a closely related specification, and is available in a matter of 8-9 months versus four years.
The unit has been mostly constructed with the cab, chassis, and trailer nearly completed. The manufacturer has agreed to make the minor modifications necessary to meet the City's needs, and to paint the truck to coincide with the new HFD paint scheme.
On March 27, 2024, representatives from the HFD Apparatus Committee toured the facility where the apparatus is kept and spent time evaluating the truck and its capabilities. The response from the Committee was favorable, and this unit would serve the needs of the community well.
High-Rise and Mid-Rise
This apparatus is critical for use in high or mid-rise buildings. A mid-rise building is categorized as a building up to four stories, and a high-rise is considered four or more stories. The aerial ladder on this truck is 100’ in length and is used as a waterway to extinguish fire, or as a means of rescue where ground ladders are not sufficient. This would be the case in a fire in the upper stories of Hemet Valley Hospital. Ground ladders would not reach above the second story, and depending on the offset from the building, ground ladders may not be useful at all. Additionally, the City is poised to see an influx in wide-rise buildings that are commonly used as distribution centers. When these buildings ignite, even if they are sprinklered, the primary strategy requires an extreme gallonage of water. An example of this potential occurred on June 5, 2020 in the City of Redlands where a large Amazon distribution building ignited and required the use of several aerial ladders to reach the fire at the center of the wide-rise building. This particular TDA has its own pump, which means it would be able to secure a hydrant and flow water directly to the fire.
The existing Truck 4 does not have a pump and requires an engine to secure the hydrant and flow water using the truck to carry the hose to the tip of the ladder. The new TDA would free up the additional engine to be used elsewhere on the incident.
Availability of Trucks in the Region
One of the unique threats to the community of Hemet is the limitation of available resources to respond to assist in a timely manner. Currently HFD Truck 4 is one of two trucks that serve this valley with a reasonable response time. The other truck is Soboba Fire Department Truck 1. Given the high (and increasing) number of fires, traffic collisions, and rescues in the “Valley” it is not uncommon for Truck 4 to be requested, as part of the Master Mutual Agreement, to assist surrounding jurisdictions.
When the current 17-year old piece of equipment is out of service for mechanical reasons, it is not available to fulfill this obligation. There is also a delay associated with the transfer of equipment from Engine 4 to the Truck prior to departing the station. If Engine 4 is not in quarters at the time of the request, there is a further delay in responding back to the station and then preparing to respond.
Fires and Specialized Operations
Historically, the City has seen an increase in calls for service on an annual basis, including last year, which saw the highest number of calls experienced by the HFD at 18,719 calls. This represents an
24.C
increase of nearly 300 calls from 2022. This trend is not expected to change, and is likely to increase with the influx of new homes, commercial, and industrial occupancies coming to Hemet. This growth is beneficial for the local economy but does pose an increased burden on the 911 system. The chart below describes the number of calls associated with Truck 4 and Engine 4. Last year, Station 4 ran 2,523 calls, and this number is predicted to increase approximately 10-15%. This increased workload will create a corresponding increase in wear and tear, repairs, and down time associated with supply chain disruptions delaying the shipment of repair parts.

Further, there has been an increase in calls for “specialized operations” such as Urban Search and Rescue (USAR), aircraft firefighting, traffic collisions requiring extrication of trapped victims, etc. The influx of wide-spread construction brings with it an increased likelihood of industrial-related accidents requiring the use of specialized equipment to conduct the rescue. This piece of apparatus is outfitted with the tools to begin rescue operations until a USAR unit can arrive on scene with additional specialized equipment. The new Truck 4 will carry a full complement of auto extrication equipment (such as the “Jaws-of-Life”), making Truck 4 the most capable unit in the City to conduct prolonged, and complex, extrication of vehicle wreck victims.
In conclusion, the purchase of this apparatus will drastically improve the response times and capabilities of the HFD. It will serve the residents of Hemet well for the next 20 years, while allowing HFD to utilize the existing apparatus as a reserve unit.

RESOLUTION NO. 2024-xxx
A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY
OF HEMET, CALIFORNIA, AWARDING THE PURCHASE
OF A COMMANDER TRACTOR DRAWN AERIAL
APPARATUS (TDA) FROM ROSENBAUER IN THE
AMOUNT OF $2,154,876, AND AUTHORIZING THE
ADMINISTRATIVE SERVICES DIRECTOR TO RECORD A
SUPPLEMENTAL APPROPRIATION IN THE AMOUNT OF
$1,174,210 TO FUND 332 AND $980,666 TO FUND 380
FOR THE PURCHASE, AND AUTHORIZING THE CITY
MANAGER TO EXECUTE ALL DOCUMENTS
REGARDING THE PURCHASE ORDER.
The City Council of the City of Hemet, California (hereafter referred to as the “City Council”) does resolve as follows:
WHEREAS, the Hemet Fire Department has one tractor drawn aerial truck company, currently assigned as Truck 4, housed at Fire Station 4. Truck 4 is considered "front line” which means it is able to respond 24/7/365. This truck is currently crossed staffed which means the crew needs to remove gear from the engine and move it to the truck prior to response. This is done because the existing truck does not have a pump,
a tank, or water. The crews primarily respond on the fire engine, but when a call is received that would require the specialized equipment contained on the TDA, the crew will take the Engine out-of-service and move to the Truck for response; and
24.C
CITY OF HEMET RESOLUTION NO. 2024-XXX 1
WHEREAS, truck 4 is a 2007 Kovatch Tiller with approximately 43,000 miles.
This 17 year-old piece of equipment has served the City well, however we have seen a drastic increase in required repairs, with difficulty in obtaining parts. Since 2020 Truck 4 has incurred $38,199.88 in repair costs. The National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) standard 1900 suggests that apparatus should provide 15 years of frontline service and then be turned over for reserve status. Fire apparatus that are older than 15 years should be evaluated for rebuilding in accordance with NFPA 1912: Standard for Fire Apparatus Refurbishing. NFPA 1901’s Annex D further recommends that apparatus that are more than 25 years old be retired from the vehicle fleet; and WHEREAS, a tractor drawn aerial (TDA) is the most maneuverable type of fire apparatus because of its unique design consisting of three distinct parts: a tractor, a trailer and a tillerman's cab. Tractor drawn aerials can be traced back to the late 1800s when the trailers, pulled by horses, were given rear steering. Today, tractor-drawn aerials are known for their maneuverability and ability to carry many ground ladders and equipment. A tractor drawn aerial is designed to have two operators. The main driver sits in the front cab and steers the front axle and the other sits in the rear tiller cab and steers the rear axle. When required for maintenance, the rear axle can be locked and the front operator can drive the truck like a tractor trailer. The sheer size of a tractor drawn aerial means that it offers ample storage. In fact, the compartment volume for the apparatus can be as much as 650 cubic feet. That’s a significant increase when comparing it to a straight frame aerial with typically less than 200 cubic feet. Moreover, a tiller can typically manage 4000 lbs. or more of equipment; and
24.C
CITY OF HEMET RESOLUTION NO. 2024-XXX 1
WHEREAS, tractor drawn aerials provide fire departments with superior capacity and flexibility in storing tools and equipment. With the increased storage capabilities, tractor drawn aerials can accommodate more ground ladders than straight-frame aerials. This is due to a significantly larger rear storage area from the added length of a trailer, and the absence of a torque box and pedestal typically found on straight frame aerials. In addition, even more ground ladders can be stored on the outside of the trailer; and
WHEREAS, the TDA being offered by Rosenbauer contains all the storage and ground ladders of a traditional tractor drawn aerial, however this apparatus also contains a pump, a water tank, and a compliment of hose. These five elements (pump, tank, hose, aerial ladder, and ground ladders) comprise the definition of a quintuple combination pumper, or “Quint”. This gives this apparatus both the attributes of a ladder truck and of a fire engine; and
WHEREAS, operationally, this piece of equipment will allow HFD to utilize the truck in a “first-out” capacity as it has the fire suppression capabilities of an engine, and the ventilation, the auto extrication, and rescue capabilities of a truck. This will allow HFD to place this unit into service when received, without the delay of recruitment for additional positions; and
WHEREAS, currently the crews at Fire Station 4 respond primarily on a 2002 Type-1 fire engine. If they are dispatched to a call that requires the TDA such as a structure fire, a vehicle collision where extrication is indicated, a rescue, or other specialized response, the crew will move their personal protective gear to the truck and
24.C
CITY OF HEMET RESOLUTION NO. 2024-XXX 1
respond creating a delay in response time. Having the new TDA will eliminate the need to transfer gear and reduce the time it takes for the older apparatus to start up. This leads to an overall reduction in time until the truck arrives on scene of the incident; and WHEREAS, during the COVID pandemic, many fire apparatus manufacturers struggled financially causing them to shut down factories, lay off workers and merge with other companies through buyouts. This has caused supply and demand issues and with inflation, has dramatically increased the cost of fire apparatus across the board.
The Hemet Fire Department has historically purchased trucks from KME. Currently, KME has an estimated build time of nearly 4 years. Additionally, the price of trucks manufactured by KME, as well as other manufacturers, have experienced significant price increases so Hemet Fire decided to obtain a quote for the purchase of a truck from a third manufacturer, Rosenbauer. This manufacture has gained popularity throughout the industry with many agencies switching to the company due to shorter build times.
Agencies such as Los Angeles County Fire, Ventura County Fire, Rancho Cucamonga Fire, and Chino Valley Fire District have made the transition to Rosenbauer to build their trucks; and
WHEREAS, when Rosenbauer was contacted they advised of a brand-new, nearly completed, unit that is being built to a closely related specification, and is available in a matter of 8-9 months versus 4 years. The unit has been mostly constructed with the cab, chassis, and trailer nearly completed. The manufacturer has agreed to make the minor modifications necessary to meet our needs, and to paint the truck to coincide with the new HFD paint scheme; and
24.C
CITY OF HEMET RESOLUTION NO. 2024-XXX 1
WHEREAS, on 3/27/2024 representatives from the HFD Apparatus Committee toured the facility where the apparatus is kept, and spent time evaluating the truck and its capabilities. The response from the Committee was favorable and this unit would serve the needs of the community well; and
WHEREAS, this apparatus is critical for use in high, or mid-rise, buildings. A midrise building is categorized as a building up to 4 stories, and a high-rise is considered 4 or more stories. The aerial ladder on this truck is 100’ in length and is used as a waterway to extinguish fire, or as a means of rescue where ground ladders are not sufficient. This would be the case in a fire in the upper stories of Hemet Valley Hospital. Ground ladders would not reach above the second story, and depending on the offset from the building, we may not be able to use ground ladders at all.
Additionally, the City is poised to see an influx in wide-rise buildings that are commonly used as distribution centers. When these buildings ignite, even if they are sprinklered, the primary strategy requires an extreme gallonage of water. An example of this potential occurred on 6/5/2020 in the city of Redlands where a large Amazon distribution building ignited and required the use of several aerial ladders to reach the fire at the center of the wide-rise building. This particular TDA has its own pump, which means it would be able to secure a hydrant and flow water directly to the fire; and WHEREAS, the existing Truck 4 does not have a pump, and requires an engine to secure the hydrant and flow water using the truck to carry the hose to the tip of the ladder. The new TDA would free up the additional engine to be used elsewhere on the incident; and
24.C
CITY OF HEMET RESOLUTION NO. 2024-XXX 1
WHEREAS, one of the unique threats to the community of Hemet is the limitation of available resources to respond to assist in a timely manner. Currently HFD Truck 4 is one of two trucks that serve this valley with a reasonable response time. The other truck is Soboba Fire Department Truck 1. Given the high (an increasing) number of fires, traffic collisions, and rescues in the “Valley” it is not uncommon for Truck 4 to be requested, as part of the Master Mutual Agreement, to assist surrounding jurisdictions.
When the current 17-year old piece of equipment is out of service for mechanical reasons, it is not available to fulfill this obligation. There is also a delay associated with the transfer of equipment from Engine 4 to Truck prior to departing the station. If Engine 4 is not in quarters at the time of the request, there is a further delay in responding back to the station and then preparing to respond; and
