STAFF REPORT
DATE: June 21, 2022
TO: Mayor and Council Members
Chair and Board Members, Hesperia Water District
FROM: Nils Bentsen, City Manager SECOND READING AND ADOPTION BY: Casey Brooksher, Director of Administrative Services Heather Beardsley, Administrative Analyst
SUBJECT: Amendments to Title 14 of Hesperia Municipal Code related to billing and collection procedures for water service
RECOMMENDED ACTION
It is recommended that the City Council and Board of Directors of the Hesperia Water District introduce and place on first reading Ordinance No. 2022-07 amending Title 14 of the Hesperia Municipal Code related to billing and collection procedures for water service.
BACKGROUND
Section 14.02.080 of the Hesperia Municipal Code (HMC) establishes the guidelines and procedures for billing and collection methods . Section 14.02.080(O) establishes the procedure for the placement of liens on real properties for delinquent fees, fines, and charges accrued for delinquent water services. In addition to establish ing liens on properties, unpaid liens are pursuant to subsequent collection via the San Bernardino County property tax rolls.
Hesperia Municipal Code (HMC) Section 14.02.080(O) authorizes the use of the special assessment to collect on liens placed on properties which remain unpaid by the end of the fiscal year. Property liens are only assessed after the property owner, or responsible person, has failed to pay their water bill by its due date and failed to comply with a Past Due Notice.
On July 5 th, 20 11, the City Council approved Ordinance 2011-06 adopting new policies and procedures for the Hesperia Water District. Ordinance 2011-06 outlined an administrative fee schedule for the Hesperia Water District and specified procedures to collect unpaid fines or fees as a result of water service provided by the District.
ISSUES/ANALYSIS
Currently, Section 14.02.080 of the Hesperia Municipal Code requires the District to notify the parties liable for payment of the delinquent charges, the intent to establish a lien against all real property in San Bernardino County and/or in any other county in the state of California by mail. If the charges remain unpaid for ten days or more after the notice has been deposited in the mail, the general manager shall prepare a certificate of charges to present to the Board bef ore the recordation of the lien.
However, Section 1.12.370 of the Hesperia Municipal Code , also related to establishing liens, does not require the City to present to the Board prior to recordation of a property lien. The amendment to Title 14, Chapter 1 4.02.080 will modify the procedure of establishing liens to be

similar to the procedure found in Chapter 1.12, Section 1.12.370 by removing the step of presenting each lien to the Board before recordation. A public hearing and Board approval are not required for the District to record a lien for delinquent water charges. This change will allow the procedure of the recordation of liens to be simplified and better serve the District as an alternative to disconnections for non-payment.
FISCAL IMPACT
There is no fiscal impact associated with this item.

TO: Mayor and Council Members
FROM: Nils Bentsen, City Manager SECOND READING AND ADOPTION BY: Rachel Molina, Assistant City Manager
Ryan Leonard, Senior Planner
SUBJECT: Development Code Amendment DCA 22-00002 and Specific Plan Amendment SPLA22-00001; Applicant: City of Hesperia; Area affected: City-wide
RECOMMENDED ACTION
The Planning Commission recommends that the City Council introduce and place on second reading Ordinance No. 2022-10 approving Development Code Amendment DCA22-00002 and Specific Plan Amendment SPLA22-00001, modifying development standards associated with truck storage yards and truck terminals within the industrial zoning classifications.
BACKGROUND
At the June 21, 2022, City Council meeting, the Council voted 5-0 to approve Ordinance No. 2022- 10 subject to the certain modifications. Ordinance No. 2022-10 has been modified to allow for the storage of shipping containers as a primary use, subject to approval of a CUP; to allow for the stacking of shipping containers, up to two containers high; and to restrict the approval of any CUP for shipping container storage to only those business es that have , or that will have, a valid business license in the City to sell portable storage containers. Furthermore, all shipping container storage yards will be subject to the same development standards that were originally presented for truck storage yards and truck terminals in Ordinance No. 2022-10.
ISSUES/ANALYSIS
Currently, the municipal code does not contain specific development standards for truck storage yards. For example, outdoor storage uses are currently addressed in Section 16.16.360 of the Development Code, however the requirements are oriented towards all types of outdoor storage, including storage of merchandise. The proposed regulations would clarify that truck storage yards and sites that are used for shipping container storage as a primary use are a type of outdoor storage and would include specific provisions for them. In addition, the proposed regulations would require that all future truck storage yards and shipping cont ainer storage yards obtain approval of a Conditional Use Permit.
The municipal code currently allows truck terminals within the General Commercial (C2), Limited Manufacturing (I1) and General Manufacturing (I2) zones with approval of a CUP. Staff is proposing to clarify that term “truck terminal” shall also include a truck storage yard. In addition, staff is removing a truck terminal as being an allowed use within the General Commercial (C2) zone. Truck terminals/truck storage yards would continue to be a llowed in the I1 and I2 zones with approval of a CUP. Shipping container storage yards subject to certain regulations would also be allowed in the I1 and I2 zones with approval of a CUP.
Staff Report to the City Council
DCA22-00002 & SPLA22-00001
July 19, 2022
Within the Main Street and Freeway Corridor Specific Plan (Specif ic Plan), truck terminals are allowed in the General Industrial (GI) zone as a permitted use. Staff is proposing to change the current requirement to require a CUP for a truck terminal/truck storage yard and shipping container storage yard within the General Industrial (GI) zone. Within the Commercial Industrial Business Park (CIBP) zone of the Specific Plan, a truck terminal is not listed as a permitted or conditionally permitted use. However, other trucking related uses such as warehouse facilities or major vehicle repair facilities (including semi -truck repair) are currently allowed to have truck parking and truck storage as an ancillary use. Staff is proposing to add truck terminals/truck storage yards and shipping container storage yards as a conditionally permitted use within the CIBP zone.
Staff is also proposing to create specific development standards that would apply to all future truck terminals/truck storage yards and shipping container storage yards . The development standards would require that the any site that is proposed for a truck terminal/truck storage yard be fully developed with a permanent building that complies with the City’s Architectural Design Guidelines. As previously mentioned, because the development code does not currently contain specific development standards for truck terminals/truck storage yards, the code is silent on whether a building is required at all. This has been problematic for staff in the past.
The proposed development standards would also require that the entire site is fully paved so that trucks and containers are not parked or stored on any vacant portion of the site. In addition, the storage areas would have to be completely screened from public view by a combinat ion of buildings and/or a minimum 8 -foot high decorative solid screen wall. The screen wall would be required to include anti-graffiti coating. Lastly, an operations and truck route plan will be required to be submitted for review and approval as a part of the CUP application. The plan would describe the operational characteristics of the proposed use, including but not limited to, hours of operation, number of employees, number of trucks to be stored, and the proposed truck routing to and from the facility to designated truck routes. Taken together these requirements will ensure that all new facilities are developed in an orderly and quality manner.
On May 12, 2022, the Planning Commission voted 5-0 to forward this item to the City Council with a recommendation for approval. The Development Code Amendment complies with the General Plan. Ensuring that truck terminals/truck storage yards are subject to a conditional use permit and adding clear development regulations will ensure that future sites are developed in an orderly and quality manner.

BY: Ryan Leonard, Senior Planner
SUBJECT: Development Code Amendment DCA 22-00002 and Specific Plan Amendment SPLA22-00001; Applicant: City of Hesperia; Area affected: City-wide
RECOMMENDED ACTION
It is recommended that the Planning Commission adopt Resolution No. PC -2022-07 recommending that the City Council introduce and place on first reading an ordinance approving DCA22-00002 and SPLA 22-00001, modifying development standards associated with truck storage yards and truck terminals within the industrial zoning classifications.
BACKGROUND
Over the past few years industrial developments related to trucking and distribution have accelerated due to the increase in e -commerce. To that end, s taff has seen an increase in the number of inquiries from customers who wish to develop generally smaller sites exclusively for truck parking and truck storage. Currently, the municipal code does not contain specific development standards for truck storage yards. For example, outdoor storage uses are currently addressed i n Section 16.16.360 of the Development Code, however the requirements are oriented towards all types of outdoor storage, including storage of merchandise. The proposed regulations would clarify that truck storage yards are a type of outdoor storage and would include specific provisions for them. In addition, the proposed regulations would require that all future truck storage yards obtain approval of a Conditional Use Permit.

The municipal code currently allows truck terminals within the General Commercial (C2), Limited Manufacturing (I1) and General Manufacturing (I2) zones with approval of a CUP. Staff is proposing to clarify that term “truck terminal” shall also include a truck storage yard . In addition, staff is removing a truck terminal as being an allowed use within the General Commercial (C2) zone. Truck terminals/truck storage yards would continue to be allowed in the I1 and I2 zones with approval of a CUP.
Within the Main Street and Freeway Corridor Specific Plan (Specific Plan), truck terminals are allowed in the General Industrial (GI) zone as a permitted use. As such, a truck terminal does not currently require a CUP within the General Industrial (GI) zone. Staff is proposing to change the current requirement t o require a CUP for a truck terminal/truck storage yard with the General Industrial (GI) zone.

Within the Commercial Industrial Business Park (CIBP) zone of the Specific Plan, a truck terminal is not listed as a permitted or conditionally permitted use. However, other trucking related uses such as warehouse facilit ies or major vehicle repair facilit ies (including semi -truck repair) are currently allowed to have truck parking and truck storage as an ancillary use. Staff is proposing to add truck terminals/truck storage yards as a conditionally permitted use within the CIBP zone.
Staff is also proposing to create specific development standards that would apply to all future truck terminals/truck storage yards. The development standards would require that the any site that is proposed for a truck terminal/truck storage yard be fully developed with a permanent building that complies with the City’s Architectural Design Guidelines. As previously mentioned, because the development code does not currently contain specific development standards for truck terminals/truck storage yards, the code is silent on whether a building is required at all. This has been problematic for staff in the past.
The proposed development standards would also require that the entire site is fully paved so that trucks are precluded from parking on any vacant portion of the site. In addition, the truck storage areas would have to be completely screened from public view by a combination of buildings and/or a minimum 8-foot high decorative solid screen wall. The screen wall would be required to include anti-graffiti coating. Lastly, an operations and truck route plan will be required to be submitted for review and approval as a part of the CUP application. Th e plan would describe the operational characteristics of the proposed use, including but not limited to, hours of operation, number of employees, number of trucks to be stored, and the proposed truck routing to and from the facility to designated truck routes.
Taken together these requirements will ensure that all new facilities are developed in an orderly and quality manner.
Environmental: Approval of the Development Code Amendment is exempt from the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act per Section 15061(b)(3), where it can be seen with certainty that there is no significant effect on the environment. The proposed Development Code Amendment is also exempt from the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act by Section 16.12.415(B)(10) of the City’s CEQA Guidelines, as the Development Code Amendment does not propose to increase the density or intensity allowed in the General Plan.
Conclusion: The Development Code Amendment complies with the General Plan. Ensuring that truck terminals/truck storage yards are subject to a conditional use permit and adding clear development regulations will ensure that future sites are developed in an orderly and quality manner

SUBJECT: Joint Resolution Amending the City-Wide Fee Schedule
RECOMMENDED ACTION
It is recommended that the City Council and respective Boards adopt Joint Resolution No. 2022- 28, Resolution No. HWD 20 22-03, Resolution No. HHA 20 22-01, and Resolution No. CDC 2022-01, amending the City -Wide fee schedule related to third -party haulers, towing services, animal control services, fire services, and engineering services.
BACKGROUND
On October 4, 2016, the City Council approved amendments to the City -Wide Fee Schedule related to several Senate Bills (SB 1473, SB 1186) and DUI Emergency Cost Recovery.
On December 6, 2016, the City Council approved ame ndments to the City-Wide Fee Schedule.
These amendments included an attachment related to the fees charged for Fire Services, commonly known to the fee schedule as Appendix “B”.
On October 3, 2017, the City Council approved amendments to the City -Wide Fe e Schedule.
These fees included changes to Engineering fees, water meter costs, Planning and Building and Safety fees, and new hourly rates for costs reasonably borne.
On January 16, 2018, the City Council approved an amendment to the City -Wide Fee Schedule related to plan review for on-site grading for Engineering.

Staff Report to the City Council
Adopt Joint Resolution Amending the City-Wide Fee Schedule July 19, 2022
On March 17, 2020, the City Council approved an amendment to the City -Wide Fee Schedule related to Stormwater fees, Planning Fees, Engineering Fees and Supplemental Water Charges.
On January 5, 2021, the City Council approved an amendment to the City -Wide Fee Schedule related to the commercial parking permit fees and business license fees for residential rental properties.
On August 17, 2021, the City Council approved an amendment to the City -Wide Fee Schedule related to the fees for the Commercial Truck Parking program and amending fees for services provided by the Development Services Department.
On October 19, 2021, the City Council approved an amendment to the City -Wide Fee Schedule related to the fees for the Deemed Approved Program and the Tobacco Retailer License Program.
ISSUES/ANALYSIS
Staff reviews the City Fee Schedule on an annual basis and as needed during each Fiscal Year to ensure that cost recovery is being achieved and the fees are still appropriate for the services provided. The following fee schedule revisions are recommended:
Third Party-Hauler Fees
As City Council adopted a Third-Party Hauler permit fee in the amount of $100 to track organic waste disposal activities to comply with CalRecycle reporting requirements , staff recommends implementing an annual renewal fee in the amount of $100.00 as there is currently no fee to recover costs for annual administration of the permit renewal process and compliance monitoring.
Tow Fee
On July 7, 1994, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 94-79 establishing a reimbursement policy for certain special Public Safety related services. Included in the resolution is a $50 Stored Vehicle Release Fee (aka Tow Fee). Staff determined the actual time spent on a tow to be $166.77 (10 minutes for a Se rgeant for oversight; 1 hour for Deputy call and report; 1 hour for Office Assistant to prepare paperwork, process, and release), and recommends increasing the fee to $150.
Animal Control Service Fees
Staff recommends updating Animal Control’s Return to Owner fees for X-rays, Bloodwork and Intravenous fluids (that may be applicable to health compromised animals) to align with Hesperia Veterinary Service fees. The City provides full compensation for services provided by the consultant. As these fees are the responsibility of the owner, it is necessary to increase the fees to fully recover costs for services rendered. Staff recommends updating fees for X-rays from $50 to $110, Bloodwork from $50 to $70, and adding a new fee for Intravenous fluids for $40. If the fee increase is not adopted, the City will continue to fund the gap between the current fee being charged and the fee charged by the Veterinary services contracted by the City.
Staff Report to the City Council
Adopt Joint Resolution Amending the City-Wide Fee Schedule July 19, 2022
Fire Services
Fire Service Connection charges are applicable to all new construction where fire service is to be installed. Fire service connection fees are buy -in fees used to recover the cost of existing reservoir storage and water system capacity for private fire systems. Due to the growth of industrial commerce with in the City, the need for a 12-inch fire service has become more applicable. Staff recommends implementing a fire service facilities fee in the amount of $28,104 for a 12-inch fire service installation.
Engineering Fees
The Engineering Department is responsible for the review of all plans for new industrial projects.
Due to the growth of industrial commerce within the City, staff has seen an influx of large industrial projects that will have the need to design and build large quantities of utilities onsi te.
These utilities are plan checked with the civil improvement plans separate from the offsite improvements. Staff recommends implementing a fee for Industrial Onsite Utility Plans in the amount of $1,732 per sheet to recover costs related to these types of plan reviews.
FISCAL IMPACT
Adoption of this resolution will allow the City to continue to collect fees that adequately recover costs based on services provided.

STAFF REPORT
DATE: July 19, 2022
TO: Mayor and Council Members
FROM: Nils Bentsen, City Manager
BY: Rachel Molina, Assistant City Manager
Jamie Carone, Management Analyst
Jennifer Colby, Community Relations Specialist
SUBJECT: Emergency Service Roles
RECOMMENDED ACTION
It is recommended that the City Council hold a public hearing for, and place on first reading, Ordinance No. 2022-11 amending Hesperia Municipal Code Chapter 2.20 regarding the line of succession in the direction of emergency services.
BACKGROUND
Emergency management is an essential priority of local government. The City is the first line of defense against emergencies and is responsible for leading public preparedness, response, recovery, and mitigation efforts. Members of a community look to local government for reassurance, direction, and connection to vital resources and recovery efforts throughout the phases of an emergency.
The City executes emergency management through procedures outlined in the Hesperia Municipal Code, Emergency Operations Plan, and Hazard Mitigation Plan. Each plan addresses certain components of emergency management but are all structured to complement one another for an efficient and cohesive response to various emergency situations.
The Emergency Operations Plan (EOP) addresses the City’s planned response to extraordinary situations and natural, human caused or technological disasters. The EOP guides the activation of the City’s Emergency Operations Center which provides citywide priorities, communications, and logistical support through all phases of an emergency. The Hazard Mitigation Plan (HMP) demonstrates long-term strategies to reduce the loss of life and property due to disasters. The HMP process encourages communities to develop goals and projects that will reduc e risk and build a more disaster-resilient community by identifying potential local hazards.
The EOP and HMP are updated every four (4) years to ensure compliance with state and federal regulations. Their standards are modified to reflect the most current structure of City staff and resources available to the community. As a component of emergency management, the procedures stated in the Hesperia Municipal Code must be updated to complement language, regulations, and protocol provided in the EOP, HMP, and state and federal regulations.
Staff Report to the Mayor and Council Members
Emergency Service Roles
July 19, 2022
Title 2, Chapter 2.20, Emergency Services, of the Hesperia Municipal Code declares the preparation and implementation of plans within Hesperia during an emergency, the direction of the Emergency Operations Center, and the coordination of emergency functions by City personnel and partners. Among personnel addressed in this section are the Director of Emergency Services, Assistant Director of Emergency Services, and Emergency services Coordinator. Additionally, this chapter establishes and defines membership of the Hesperia Disaster Council, which acts to develop emergency and mutual aid plans and agreements.
ISSUES/ANALYSIS
Multiple sections in Title 2, Chapter 2.20 establish procedures in Emergency Services that are outdated and do not comply with the current structure of City staff or other emergency plans. The proposed amendments resolve these discrepancies including repre sentation on the Hesperia Disaster Council, roles of internal staff in emergency operations, and other protocol as pertinent.
These changes are necessary for the municipal code to reflect current emergency response standards. Furthermore, as the City is in the final stages of producing the 2022 Emergency Operations Plan, these amendments allow the EOP to emphasize the responsibilities of internal staff.
Section 2.20.030 defines the members of the Hesperia Disaster Council as follows: Mayor, who shall be chairman; City Manager, who is the Director of Emergency Services; Fire Chief, who is the Assistant Director of Emergency Services; Police Chief; and Superintendent of the Hesperia School District. It is recommended to maintain the seats of the Mayor and Ci ty Manager and to add a seat for the Assistant City Manager, who will act as the Assistant Director of Emergency services. The Fire Chief and Police Chief will be included as chiefs of emergency services, and the Superintendent of the Hesperia Unified School District will be replaced with such language to include representatives of other organizations as appointed by the Director of Emergency Services. Amending the membership of the Hesperia Disaster Council establishes representation from significant commu nity leaders and ensures that input is provided by those with an official emergency responsibility.
Section 2.20.050 establishes the roles of the Director of Emergency services, Assistant Director of Emergency Services, and the Emergency Services Coordinator. Presently, these roles are defined as follows: The City Manager is the Director of Emergency Services; the Fire Chief is the Assistant Director of Emergency Services; the Emergency Services Coordinator is appointed by the Assistant Director of Emergency Services. It is recommended that the Assistant City Manager replace the Fire Chief as the Assistant Director of Emergency services. This amendment is necessary to assign leadership to internal staff and reflects the role of the Assistant City Manager in other established emergency plans.
Section 2.20.060 outlines the specific powers and duties of the Director of Emergency Services.
The City Manager is assigned as the Director of Emergency Services, who leads emergency organization efforts for the City and may request the proclamation of a local emergency. Within this section, the Director of Emergency Services is authorized to designate an order of succession to that office when unavailable to perform duties during an emergency. Currently, the ord er of succession places responsibility in the order of Fire Chief; Police Chief; second in command of the fire department; and second in command of the police department. This order of succession does not reflect the current structure of City staff or emer gency response procedures. The proposed amendments will instead place responsibility on internal, senior management staff. If amended, the succession will be written as follows: Assistant City Manager; Director of

Emergency Service Roles
July 19, 2022
Government Services/City Clerk; Director o f Administrative Services; and Director of Public Works. These updates reflect the roles proposed in the 2022 Emergency Operations Plan as well as the current staff structure, which no longer includes the fire department or police department.
2.20.110 addresses the safety assessment program (SAP) which is implemented to evaluate the safety of built structures after a disaster. The City Building Official is named the SAP coordinator and is permitted to use the office of the Building Official for SAP activi ties. If this office is not habitable after a disaster, then the facilities at 11011 Santa Fe Avenue are offered as an alternate site. Presently, this facility houses the Hesperia Animal Shelter. Therefore, it is recommended to designate the Mojave Corporation Yard located at 17828 Mojave Street as the alternate site.

Melinda Sayre, Director of Government Services/ City Clerk Jacquelyn Castillo, Administrative Analyst
SUBJECT: Discussion on Mulitple Response Fees
RECOMMENDED ACTION
It is recommended that the City Council discuss current Multiple Response Fees and provide direction to staff.
BACKGROUND
At the June 21, 2022 City Council Meeting, Mayor Bennington requested that staff bring an item forward to discuss Multiple Response Fees.
ISSUES/ANALYSIS
The City’s Multiple Response Program is governed by Hesperia Municipal Code Section 1.12.130 Special Enforcement Procedures, where large or tumultuous parties, domestic disturbances, gatherings, boisterous activities, or music, or any combination thereof, which interfe re with the neighbors' reasonable enjoyment of their property, constitute a threat to public peace, morals, and safety, and elicit numerous calls to the police department.
In addition to disturbances and boisterous activities, the occurrence of multiple false alarms requiring police department response and multiple 911 calls where reasonable circumstances are not established have the effect of reducing manpower availability and therefore, threatening public safety. For the purposes of this section, multiple false alarms and/or multiple unreasonable 911 calls are considered a disturbance and subject to police multiple response fees. For the first incident, the responsible party will be issued a written warning (no fee) and the property will be placed on a probation period for three years from the date of the initial response. Any additional responses that occur during the three-year probation period will cause the property to be subject to the fee schedule below.
Furthermore, the possession and usage of fireworks requires police and city department response and reduces manpower availability, in addition to creating an unsafe situation and threatening public safety and so shall be considered a disturbance and subject to police multiple response fees. And are subject to a separate fine schedule, and fees are issued upon the first occurrence.
