Whereas, on Tuesday, September 11, 2001, the United States of America experienced an unprecedented act of terror that claimed the lives of 2,976 innocent people, forever altering the course of our nation's history; and
Whereas, the country watched as Flight 11 struck the North Tower of the World Trade Center in New York City, Flight 175 struck the South Tower, Flight 77 crashed into the Pentagon in Arlington, Virginia, and Flight 93, due to the heroic efforts of passengers and crew, crashed into a field near Shanksville, Pennsylvania, preventing further destruction at a major U.S. site in Washington, D.C.; and
Whereas, though more than two decades have passed, many individuals and families continue to feel the lasting effects of that tragic day, and we, as a community, extend our deepest support, compassion, and solidarity to all those still grieving or impacted; and Whereas, each year on this solemn day, Americans unite to honor the lives lost, including innocent civilians, courageous first responders, and dedicated military personnel, whose memory lives on in the hearts of a grateful nation; and
Whereas, in the days following the attacks, the American people stood together with profound resilience, compassion, and a renewed sense of national unity; and Whereas, we continue to pay tribute to the bravery, selflessness, and sacrifice of the firefighters, police officers, EMTs, and citizens who risked and gave their lives in acts of unimaginable courage to save others.
Now, therefore, I, Jackie Peterson, Mayor of the City of Hemet, along with the Hemet City Council, do hereby proclaim September 11, 2025, as:
PATRIOT DAY, A NATIONAL DAY OF REMEMBRANCE AND SERVICE
And calls upon all residents to mark this day with ceremonies of remembrance, acts of service, and moments of reflection, to honor the victims, pay tribute to the heroes, support those still affected, and reaffirm our shared commitment to unity, resilience, and hope. May we never forget.

STAFF REPORT
Meeting: City Council Meeting - Sep 09 2025
Department: Community Development
Submitted by: Mark Prestwich, City Manager
Monique Alaniz-Flejter, Community Development Director; ☐ Receive and File ☐ Consent Calendar ☐ Business Item ☒ Public Hearing TITLE:
Adoption of an Ordinance 2058 of the City Council of the City of Hemet, California, Amending Portions of the Hemet Municipal Code, Chapter 90 Article XXXVI "Signs," to Permit Reduction and Relocation of Existing Static Outdoor Advertising Displays Under Limited Circumstances, and to Further Amend Sections of the Hemet Municipal Code to Harmonize Current Sections with such Reduction and Relocation Language
Environmental: The City has analyzed this proposed project and has determined that it is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) under section 15061(b)(3) of the CEQA Guidelines, which provides that CEQA only applies to projects that have the potential for causing a significant effect on the environment.
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
It is respectfully recommended that the City Council:
1. Receive a brief report update with attached documentation related to the proposed Zoning Ordinance Amendment No. 2025-001; and
2. Adopt City Council Ordinance No. 2058 of the City Council of the City of Hemet, California, adopting Zoning Ordinance Amendment No. 25-001 to amend Chapter 90 Article XXXVI "Signs", to Permit Reduction and Relocation of Existing Static Outdoor Advertising Displays Under Limited Circumstances, and to Further Amend Sections of Hemet Municipal Code to Harmonize Current Sections with such Reduction and Relocation Language; and
3. Find that the Project is Categorically Exempt from CEQA in accordance with CEQA Guidelines Section 15061(b)(3), the “common sense exemption,” as it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the proposed Ordinance may have a significant effect on the environment.
BACKGROUND:
On August 13, 2024, the City Council adopted the Hemet RISES Economic Strategy, which included the replacement of Traditional Billboards with revenue-producing Digital Outdoor Display Billboards.
16.A.
On December 17, 2024, staff provided a presentation to the Planning Commission on the proposed zoning code update for Digital Outdoor Advertising Display Signs, and associated Relocation and Net Reduction Agreement. At that meeting, the Planning Commission provided input on the zoning code update draft ordinance, proposed design concepts, and evaluated recommended potential locations for two future digital display boards on Highway 74/Florida Avenue and one located on Domenigoni Parkway and Sanderson Avenue.
A second public hearing was held before the Planning Commission on April 15, 2025, to present a revised draft of the proposed ordinance, responding to comments made at the December 17, 2024, public hearing. A recap of the final recommendations from the Planning Commission are included in the Discussion Section of this staff report, below.
At a duly noticed public hearing held on May 13, 2025, a first reading of the Ordinance Bill No. 2058 was considered by the City Council. At that meeting, the Council made a motion to create an Ad-Hoc committee to include Mayor Peterson and Council Member Howard-Clark to consider recommendations from the Planning Commission and provide a recommendation to the City Council.
On July 3, 2025, the City re-noticed the public hearing for the July 14, 2025, City Council meeting by advertising in the Press Enterprise newspaper prior to the holding of a public hearing at which the project would be considered by the City Council. At that meeting, the City Council voted to continue the item to the September 9, 2025, City Council meeting.
DISCUSSION:
The City Council Ad-Hoc was appointed to review and consider the recommendations from the Planning Commission that were included in the First Reading of the Ordinance presented to the City Council on May 13, 2025.
The Council Ad-Hoc recommends the following.
Compensation to property owners who currently receive lease payments for static billboards located on their property and will lose this source of revenue once their static billboard is removed, and that they should be allowed to participate in a profit-sharing agreement.
Ad Hoc Recommendation: This provision has been eliminated from the draft ordinance. A pre-determined ratio for the number of Digital Outdoor Advertising Display Signs that will replace the static billboards (e.g. 1:3 or 1:4)
Ad-Hoc Recommendation: A minimum 3:1 Ratio
Vendor Request: As confirmed by the Regional Real Estate Director, a 2:1 Ratio was approved by the Lamar Corporate Digital Committee.
Alternative: The Council may wish to approve the Ordinance at a 3:1 Ratio, with a provision that the Ordinance shall become null and void if the vendor fails to exercise the benefits of this Ordinance within 18 months through a Net Reduction and Relocation Agreement.
16.A.
A minimum vertical clearance height below the sign of at least ten (10) feet, and a maximum overall signage height not to exceed thirty (30) feet.
Ad-Hoc Recommendation: No concerns noted. As written, the Ordinance reflects this provision.
Digital Outdoor Advertising Display Signs should be limited to locations on the Highway 74/Florida Avenue corridor only.
Ad-Hoc Recommendation: Digital Outdoor Advertising Display may be located on Highway 74/Florida Avenue and Domenigoni Parkway, and Sanderson Avenue in conjunction with a minimum 3:1 Ratio.
At a future date, when all of the static billboards have been removed and replaced with Digital Outdoor Advertising Display Signs, the ordinance shall become null and void as it will no longer be applicable.
Ad-Hoc Recommendation: Amortization language to read as follows: Digital Outdoor Advertising Displays may only be constructed in conjunction with a Net Reduction and Relocation Agreement pursuant to Section 90-1285, and the provisions of this ordinance shall expire when all nonconforming Outdoor Advertising Display signs have been removed. Advertisement Content to be included with the Net Reduction and Relocation Agreement, and Revenue Sharing Agreement, subject to City Council approval.
Ad-Hoc Recommendation: The Ad-Hoc recommended restricting advertisement content that includes Adult Entertainment Uses, Cigarettes and Vaping, and Massage Parlors. Retail Cannabis would be okay with 3:1 Ratio.
Ad-Hoc Recommendation: The Ad-Hoc recommended that advertisement include public service announcements, including Amber Alerts, Silver Alerts, and Feather Alerts.
Notice of the City Council public hearing should be sent to all Property Owners who currently have a static billboard on their property. A notice was mailed out on July 1, 2025, for the scheduled July 15, 2025. Additionally, a courtesy notice with a continued hearing date was mailed out to the Property Owners who currently have a static billboard on their property for this hearing.
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.
Enhance the visual appearance of the community to make it attractive and reduce blight.
GOAL TWO: ECONOMIC OPPORTUNITY
To ensure that Hemet is a hub, with access to quality jobs, shopping options, and a varied and sustained tax base.
Provide resources for new businesses to enhance the customer service experience.
16.A.
On August 13 2024, the City Council adopted the Hemet Rises Economic Strategy, which included Replacement of Traditional Billboards with Revenue Producing Digital Display Billboards.
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.
Increase the community's pride within the City.
GOAL FOUR: PARTNERSHIP & COLLABORATION
To pursue partnerships that will increase the opportunities available to the community, including our businesses, unemployed, and youth populations.
Develop programs to offer support to the community's businesses GOAL FIVE: ORGANIZATIONAL EFFECTIVENESS
To identify the work needed inside the City organization to effectively provide services to the community and ensure financial stability.
Operate in a financially sustainable manner.
Evaluate existing practices to ensure continuity with industry best practices.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Costs are nominal and include staff time and City Attorney time to prepare the draft Ordinance, and public noticing advertising costs for three public hearings. Future revenues can be expected from demolition permits for static billboard sign removal; planning entitlement application fees, building permit and plan check fees for new Digital Outdoor Advertising Display Signs; and revenue sharing agreements. Future revenue potential remains unknown until such time that an agreement can be negotiated between City and Applicant/Owner of the Digital Outdoor Advertising Display Signs.
ALTERNATIVE(S):
Alternative Recommendations:
1. The City Council may adopt the draft Ordinance as proposed;
2. The City Council may recommend additional modifications to the proposed Zoning Ordinance Amendment;
3. The City Council may disapprove the draft Ordinance.

(a) Generally. In order to limit the number and extent of legal nonconforming signs created by the adoption of this article, it is the intent to permit nonconformities to continue until they are removed, but not to encourage their survival. Therefore, a sign existing before the effective date of the original ordinance codified in this article (August 28, 1984), or existing on the date of any amendment to this article or a zone change or annexation to the city, may be used in accordance with other provisions of this article, provided that no such legal nonconforming sign may be enlarged, expanded, extended, altered, moved, reestablished after abandonment, or restored after destruction, except that the text or sign face of a legal nonconforming sign may be changed as long as there is no change in area or sign structure.
(b) Special circumstances. In accordance with California Business and Profession Code Section 5499, no legal nonconforming sign will be required to be removed on the sole basis of its height or size if special topographic circumstances would result in a material impairment of visibility of the sign or the owner's or user's ability to adequately and effectively continue to communicate to the public through the use of the sign. The owner or user may maintain the sign at the premises and at a location necessary for continued public visibility at the height or size at which the sign was previously lawfully erected pursuant to all applicable codes, regulations and permits. Any such sign will be deemed to be in conformance with this article. (c) Legal nonconforming general outdoor advertising signs.

City Council Meeting
STAFF REPORT
Meeting: City Council Meeting - May 13 2025
Department: Community Development
Submitted by: Mark Prestwich, City Manager
Monique Alaniz-Flejter, Community Development Director; ☐ Receive and File ☐ Consent Calendar ☐ Business Item ☒ Public Hearing TITLE:
An Ordinance of the City Council of the City of Hemet, California, Amending Portions of the Hemet Municipal Code, Chapter 90 Article XXXVI "Signs," to Permit Reduction and Relocation of Existing Static Outdoor Advertising Displays Under Limited Circumstances, and to Further Amend Sections of the Hemet Municipal Code to Harmonize Current Sections with such Reduction and Relocation Language.
Environmental: The City has analyzed this proposed project and has determined that it is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) under section 15061(b)(3) of the CEQA Guidelines, which provides that CEQA only applies to projects that have the potential for causing a significant effect on the environment.
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
It is respectfully recommended that the City Council:
1. Receive and consider the staff report and attached documentation related to the proposed Zoning Ordinance Amendment No. 2025-001; and
2. Adopt City Council Ordinance Bill No. xxx adopting Zoning Ordinance Amendment No. 25-001 to amend Chapter 90 Article XXXVI "Signs", to Permit Reduction and Relocation of Existing Static Outdoor Advertising Displays Under Limited Circumstances, and to Further Amend Sections of Hemet Municipal Code to Harmonize Current Sections with such Reduction and Relocation Language.
3. Find that the Project is Categorically Exempt from CEQA in accordance with CEQA Guidelines Section 15061(b)(3), the “common sense exemption,” as it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the proposed Ordinance may have a significant effect on the environment.
Alternative Recommendation:
1. The City Council may recommend additional modifications to the proposed Zoning Ordinance Amendment
16.A.
BACKGROUND:
The City of Hemet currently prohibits the construction of new Outdoor Advertising Displays (commonly known as billboards) in all zones in the City. There are currently eleven (11) static outdoor advertising displays located along the Florida Avenue corridor that are legal nonconforming.
The City has received inquiries from billboard companies encouraging the City to upgrade the existing static billboards to digital displays, while reducing the number of static billboards. The purpose of the proposed ordinance is to codify the process which leads to a reduction of the overall number of outdoor advertising displays within the City, and upgrade them to digital displays through a Relocation and Net Reduction Agreement. Key benefits of the proposed zoning ordinance amendment are to reduce visual clutter; eliminate non-conforming signage; facilitate the relocation and redistribution of general outdoor advertising signs to more appropriate locations within the City to better serve the advertising needs of the local business community; allow for incorporation of modern digital displays; and eliminate the possibility of the City paying for removal of existing general outdoor advertising displays to accommodate public projects.
The proposed ordinance would require any billboard owner who desires to convert a static billboard to a Digital Outdoor Advertising Display sign to enter into a Relocation and Net Reduction Agreement.
Such an agreement would be negotiated by the City and the billboard entity and incorporate several terms and conditions to: 1) require a reduction in static displays, 2) ensure proper site location, and 3) ensure adherence to development standards. Furthermore, the proposed Ordinance would allow new Digital Outdoor Advertising Display signs on City-owned or controlled property, wherein the City would lease such property to a billboard company. In this scenario, the City would generate revenue from such an arrangement, subject to the terms and conditions of a lease or other agreement. The City is currently working with Lamar Billboards (who owns 10 of the 11 billboards) to effectuate opportunities within the City.
ANALYSIS:
On August 13, 2024, the City Council adopted the Hemet RISES Economic Strategy, which included replacement of Traditional Billboards with Revenue producing Digital Outdoor Display Billboards.
On December 17, 2024 staff provided a presentation to the Planning Commission on the proposed zoning code update for Digital Outdoor Advertising Display Signs, and associated Relocation and Net Reduction Agreement. At that meeting, the Planning Commission provided input on the zoning code update draft ordinance, proposed design concepts, and evaluated recommended potential locations for two (2) future digital display boards on Highway 74/Florida Avenue and one located on Domenigoni Parkway and Sanderson Avenue. A copy of the meeting minutes have been attached for reference.
A second public hearing was held before the Planning Commission on April 15, 2025, to present a revised draft of the proposed ordinance, responding to comments made at the December 18, 2024, public hearing. A recap of the final recommendations from the Planning Commission are included in the Discussion Section of this staff report, below.
Please note, the attached April 15, 2025 Planning Commission Meeting Minutes and Planning Commission Resolution are in Draft form due to the timing of posting of the Council Agenda, which
16.A.
was prior to the May 6, 2025 Planning Commission meeting in which the PC minutes and Resolution are scheduled to be considered for approval and signature.
DISCUSSION:
Community Development staff in concert with the City Attorney prepared revisions to the draft Zoning Ordinance Amendment 2025-001 based on the feedback received by the Planning Commission at it's December 18, 2024 meeting, and a revised draft was presented to the Planning Commission on April 15, 2025.
During the April 15, 2025 public hearing, the Planning Commission expressed several concerns and recommended that the draft Ordinance be amended to include provisions for:
Compensation to property owners who currently receive lease payments for static billboards located on their property and will lose this source of revenue once their static billboard is removed, and that they should be allowed to participate in a profit-sharing agreement. A pre-determined ratio for the number of Digital Outdoor Advertising Display Signs that will replace the static billboards (e.g. 1:3 or 1:4).
A minimum vertical clearance height below the sign of at least ten (10) feet, and a maximum overall signage height not to exceed thirty (30) feet.
Digital Outdoor Advertising Display Signs should be limited to locations on Highway 74/Florida Avenue corridor only.
At a future date when all of the static billboards have been removed and replaced with Digital Outdoor Advertising Display Signs, that the ordinance shall become null and void as it will no longer be applicable.
Notice of the City Council public hearing should be sent to all Property Owners who currently have a static billboard on their property. A notice was mailed out on May 1, 2025.
The PC recommended revisions are highlighted in yellow as provided in Attachment No. 1 of the Ordinance Bill.
On May 1, 2025 the City gave public notice of the May 13, 2025 public hearing on this item by advertising in the Press Enterprise newspaper prior to the holding of a public hearing at which the project would be considered by the City Council. To date, staff has received correspondence from three Native American Tribes stating they are not affected by the proposed ZOA and have no comment, and one letter from Riverside County Airport Land Use Commission (ALUC) finding the Project to be in compliance with the Airport Land Use Plan. No other comments were received either in favor of or in opposition to the request.
PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION:
None. This public hearing would be the introduction and the first reading of the Ordinance. If approved by the City Council, a second reading of the Ordinance would appear on the Consent Calendar for the Regular City Council Meeting to be held on May 27, 2025.
STRATEGIC PLAN INTEGRATION:

Future revenue potential remains unknown until such time that an agreement can be negotiated between City and Applicant/Owner of the Digital Outdoor Advertising Display Signs.
ALTERNATIVE(S):
Alternative Recommendations:
1. The City Council may adopt the draft Ordinance as proposed;
2. The City Council may recommend additional modifications to the proposed Zoning Ordinance Amendment;
3. The City Council may remand the draft Ordinance for further vetting back to the Planning Commission;
4. The City Council may disapprove the draft Ordinance.

Sec. 90-1281. Legal nonconforming signs.
(a) Generally. In order to limit the number and extent of legal nonconforming signs created by the adoption of this article, it is the intent to permit nonconformities to continue until they are removed, but not to encourage their survival. Therefore, a sign existing before the effective date of the original ordinance codified in this article (August 28, 1984), or existing on the date of any amendment to this article or a zone change or annexation to the city, may be used in accordance with other provisions of this article, provided that no such legal nonconforming sign may be enlarged, expanded, extended, altered, moved, reestablished after abandonment, or restored after destruction, except that the text or sign face of a legal nonconforming sign may be changed as long as there is no change in area or sign structure.
(b) Special circumstances. In accordance with California Business and Profession Code Section 5499, no legal nonconforming sign will be required to be removed on the sole basis of its height or size if special topographic circumstances would result in a material impairment of visibility of the sign or the owner's or user's ability to adequately and effectively continue to communicate to the public through the use of the sign. The owner or user may maintain the sign at the premises and at a location necessary for continued public visibility at the height or size at which the sign was previously lawfully erected pursuant to all applicable codes, regulations and permits. Any such sign will be deemed to be in conformance with this article.

Digital Display Design Concept 2 (Planning Commission Preferred) Dec 17 2024 - PC Minutes
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
It is respectfully recommended that the Planning Commission:
1. Receive and consider the staff report and attached documentation related to the proposed Zoning Ordinance Amendment No. 2025-001; and
2. Adopt Planning Commission Resolution recommending that the City Council adopt Zoning Ordinance Amendment No. 25-001 to amend Chapter 90 Article XXXVI "Signs", to Permit Reduction and Relocation Existing Static Outdoor Advertising Displays Under Limited Circumstances, and to Further Amend Sections of Hemet Municipal Code to Harmonize Current Sections with such Reduction and Relocation Language.
3. Find that the Project is Categorically Exempt from CEQA in accordance with CEQA Guidelines Section 15061(b)(3) the “common sense exemption” as it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the proposed Ordinance may have a significant effect on the environment.
16.A.
Alternative Recommendation:
1. The Planning Commission may recommend additional modifications to the proposed Zoning Ordinance Amendment.
REPORT SUMMARY:
The City of Hemet currently prohibits the construction of new Outdoor Advertising Displays (commonly known as billboards) in all zones in the City. There are currently eleven (11) static outdoor advertising displays located along the Florida Avenue corridor that are legal nonconforming.
The City has received inquiries from billboard companies to encourage the City to entertain possibly upgrading current static billboard to digital, while reducing the number of static billboards. The purpose of this ordinance is to just that - reduce the overall number of outdoor advertising displays within the City, while upgrading to digital through a Relocation and Net Reduction Agreement. Such implementation will reduce visual clutter; eliminate non-conforming signage; facilitate the relocation and redistribution of general outdoor advertising signs to more appropriate locations within the City to better serve the advertising needs of the local business community; to allow for incorporation of modern digital displays, and to eliminate the need for the City to pay compensation for removal of existing general outdoor advertising displays to accommodate a public project.
The proposed ordinance would require any billboard owner who desires to convert a static board to digital display to also enter into a Relocation and Net Reduction Agreement. Such agreement would be negotiated by the City and the billboard entity and incorporate several terms and conditions to; 1) require a reduction in static displays, 2) ensure proper site location, and 3) ensure adherence to development standards. Furthermore, the proposed Ordinance would potentially allow billboards on City-owned or controlled property, wherein the City would lease such property to a billboard company.
In this scenario, the City could possibly generate revenue from such arrangement, subject to terms and conditions of a lease or other agreement. The City is currently working with Lamar Billboards (who owns 10 of the 11 billboards) to effectuate opportunities within the City.
On August 13, 2024, the City Council adopted the Hemet RISES Economic Strategy, which included replacement of Traditional Billboards with Revenue producing Digital Display Billboards.
On December 18, 2024 staff provided a presentation to the Planning Commission on zoning code update for Digital Outdoor Advertising Display Signs, and associated Relocation and Net Reduction Agreement. At that meeting, the Planning Commission provided input on the zoning code update draft ordinance, proposed design concepts, and evaluated potential locations for future digital display boards. A copy of the meeting minutes have been attached for reference. Since then, adjustments to the language of the draft text have been made to to reflect a more cohesive and internally consistent draft ordinance.
PUBLIC COMMUNICATIONS RECEIVED:
16.A.
On March 25, 2025 the City gave public notice by advertising in the Press Enterprise prior to the holding of a public hearing at which the project would be considered by the Planning Commission. To date, staff has received correspondence from three Native American Tribes stating they are not affected by the proposed ZOA and have no comment, and one letter from Riverside County ALUC finding the Project to be in compliance with the Airport Land Use Plan. No other comments were received either in favor of or in opposition to the request.

Created: 2025-09-09 14:19:15 [EST]
(Supp. No. 67, Update 2)
existing before the effective date of the original ordinance codified in this article (August 28, 1984), or existing on the date of any amendment to this article or a zone change or annexation to the city, may be used in accordance with other provisions of this article, provided that no such legal nonconforming sign may be enlarged, expanded, extended, altered, moved, reestablished after abandonment, or restored after destruction, except that the text or sign face of a legal nonconforming sign may be changed as long as there is no change in area or sign structure. (b) Special circumstances. In accordance with California Business and Profession Code Section 5499, no legal nonconforming sign will be required to be removed on the sole basis of its height or size if special topographic circumstances would result in a material impairment of visibility of the sign or the owner's or user's ability to adequately and effectively continue to communicate to the public through the use of the sign. The owner or user may maintain the sign at the premises and at a location necessary for continued public visibility at the height or size at which the sign was previously lawfully erected pursuant to all applicable codes, regulations and permits.

6.A. Presentation on Potential Zoning Code Update for Digital Outdoor Advertising Display Signs with Relocation and Net Reduction Agreement.
Director Alaniz-Flejter gave a PowerPoint presentation and answered questions from the Commission.
Commissioner Wuerth inquired on the city’s purpose for the zoning code update and expressed concern for the current property owners who will no longer receive revenue from existing billboards.
Director Alaniz-Flejter confirmed the intent of the code update is to eliminate legal nonconforming signs.
Attorney Mizrahi advised negotiations will be done between the billboard owner and property owners in accordance with their individual lease terms.
Economic Development Manager Sandoval provided comment advising the Commission Lamar Company currently holds month-to-month leases with 10 of the 11 existing billboards; the City intends on holding a meeting with property owners to advise them of the zoning code update; the process will include Lamar issuing lease termination notification to property owners; and the City will be given time slots on the new billboards for civic messages at no cost.
Commissioner Clark requested clarity on the definition of legal non-conforming and expressed concern with the loss of revenue for the current property owners. City Attorney Mizrahi provided the definition of legal non-conforming and advised of the requirement for cities to allow ample time for a use to continue after becoming legal non-conforming which has been done. In addition, she advised Lamar Company requested for the City to amend their code to allow updates to the current boards as to become legal.
Commissioner Hill provided comment advising his preference is with style no. 2; recommended a stipulation requiring distance requirements between signs; restricting sign locations to Florida Avenue corridor; and requested a revenue comparison between static and digital signs.
Vice Chair Papp provided disclosure he has worked directly with Lamar at his city of employment and provided the following comments: Caltrans has criteria for any roadway considered a “primary highway” which pertains to Florida Avenue; city to consider allowance of billboards on Highways 74 and 79; in favor of style no. 2; vast depth required for footings may interfere with public utilities; advised state law does allow for billboards on private property and inquired if City is allowed to be more restrictive; Section 90-1285.1 a and b discuss a reduction of existing billboards but does not clarify the total number of billboards to be allowed; subsection 4.d.i may be inconsistent with state law regarding construction in public right-ofway; subsection 4.d.ii may also be inconsistent, as there must be 1,000 foot of separation; inconsistency with height restrictions in subsections 4.d., iv and v; and expressed concern with subsection 4.d.x. being legally enforceable.
16.A.
Planning Commission Meeting
December 17, 2024
City Attorney Mizrahi confirmed the following: Business & Professions Code and Caltrans provide minimum distance requirements and the City may choose to increase that distance; currently a billboard company has the right to enter into an agreement with a private owner; new ordinance will only allow billboards on city owned property; language will be added to ordinance clarifying intent of ordinance and stating allowable sign area of new signs cannot exceed sign area of existing signs.
Director Alaniz-Flejter advised staff will review subsections 4.d. iv and v for consistency and will add language to provide clarity on height restrictions from the underside of sign and allowing flexibility for variances due to road grade levels.
Chair Beamesderfer provided comment inquiring if any billboard signs are city owned; expressed concern with the proposed sign location near Four Seasons; two signs may not be sufficient; agrees to billboard separation requirements; expressed concern with property owner off Gilmore Street who has been wanting to upgrade their sign; requested clarity of definition on pages 41-42 regarding offsite advertising criteria; in favor of proposed billboard style no. 2; expressed concern with the possibility of Caltrans easement issues; and inquired on billboard maintenance responsibilities.
Manager Sandoval confirmed there are no signs currently on city property.
Director Alaniz-Flejter clarified one of the proposed locations is city owned and confirmed definitions on pages 41-42 will define outdoor advertising displays.
City Attorney Mizrahi advised lease agreement language will require lessor, or the billboard company, be responsible for billboard maintenance and may also include surrounding landscape requirements.
Commissioner Clark inquired if the City has forwarded the proposed ordinance to Caltrans for their review.
Attorney Mizrahi advised the City has not forwarded the proposed ordinance to Caltrans and confirmed Caltrans approval is not required.
Director Alaniz-Flejter confirmed the plan of action is to not have any billboards constructed on Caltrans right of way.
Commissioner Wuerth provided comment requesting the city reach out to current property owners to fully explain the new ordinance and process; advised he is favor of style no. 2.
Commissioner Hill requested information be provided to the Commission to include a revenue analysis and list of current property owners.
Vice Chair Papp inquired if city has any intention of converting Highway 74 (Florida Avenue) into a scenic highway and advised he is a proponent of creating a revenue sharing program.

June 23, 2025 - July 6, 2025 in the amount of $1,148,368.42 July 7, 2025 - July 20, 2025 in the amount of $1,168,557.31 July 21, 2025 - August 3, 2025 in the amount of $1,125,986.93 DISCUSSION:
On July 1, 2025, the City of Hemet implemented a new financial software that took approximately one year to configure. The registers within this report are the first of their kind for the City and appear different from prior reports, but still have all of the same important information to provide transparency.
The process in which checks are issued has proven to be much more automated, eliminating much of the paper-pushing processes and wait time to vendors for receipt of payment. With this facilitation, a process improvement was made to issue checks on a weekly basis, versus every two weeks. This allows workflows to remain fluid across all departments and provides improved service to all City vendors. With this change, warrant registers have increased in frequency.
STRATEGIC PLAN INTEGRATION:
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.
Objective 2: Increase transparency for the public.
FISCAL IMPACT:
All funds dispersed have been appropriated in the City's fiscal year budget.
