REGULAR MEETING PAGE 3
Councilmember Burrola stated his preference that the pole matches the finish of the water fountain.

Mayor Ortiz expressed his preference for approving design 2, though he liked the landscaping shown in design 1, and agreed that the digital sign finish and the fountain finish should match.

Mayor Ortiz also expressed his concern over the fountain’s colors fading over time, to which Director Chan advised that staff would work with the designer to ensure that proper chemicals are used in the fountain to minimize algae growth and that maintenance staff will be responsible for the upkeep of the fountain.

Mayor Pro Tem Ambriz spoke on his preference of avoiding native landscaping since he prefers flowery plants.

Councilmember Burrola concurred with approving design 2 and asked whether the fountain area would be reduced to make room for increased Library parking, to which Director Chan advised that the size of the area for the new fountain will remain the same as the existing fountain.

Mayor Pro Tem Ambriz suggested placing signs warning that the fountain water contains chemicals to discourage individuals from climbing into it.

Director Rodriguez advised that the new fountain would be maintained just like the existing fountain in the park plaza area. She noted that this existing fountain has signs warning individuals from entering the water.

A motion was made by Mayor Pro Tem Ambriz, seconded by Councilmember Burrola, to select design concept 2 with flowers / landscaping in the rear of the fountain. The motion was unanimously approved; Councilmembers Breceda and Garcia absent.

At 7:09 p.m., Councilmember Garcia and City Manager Miranda returned to the Council Chambers.

CITY MANAGER’S REPORT
City Manager Miranda presented the following report:
1) The 2026 Mayor’s State of the City address has been scheduled for April 16. 2) A Founding Mothers Mural Ad Hoc Workshop has been scheduled for April 17. 3) A Spring Bulky Item Pickup has been scheduled for May 8. 4) He also provided information regarding collection events for household hazardous waste and e-waste, scheduled for May 2 and 16.
5) Police Department and Code Enforcement staff visited a site on Meridian which is closed due to slope failure and did not spot any transients during their inspection.

6) Code Enforcement staff have visited Alpha Street businesses and issued numerous code violations.
7) He then provided details on upcoming Aquatics, Library, and Senior Center events.

presented to the Council, to which City Attorney Guerra cautioned against discussing open Code Enforcement cases in open session.

In response to a question from City Manager Miranda, Director Simpson advised that a report could be presented regarding the issues at Alpha Street, though it would not contain many details, if any, since staff may not discuss open Code Enforcement cases.

REQUESTS FOR AGENDA ITEMS BY CITY COUNCIL
Councilmember Burrola stated that he has received complaints regarding dust near Arrow Highway and Calle Barbosa, by United Rock Pit #2, and requested that this be placed on an agenda to discuss mitigation measures.

Mayor Ortiz noted that some residents are experiencing financial hardships due to the weak economy and proposed assistance from the Irwindale Community Foundation in providing them with a one-time incentive, such as a $100 gift card for groceries and another $100 gift card for gasoline.

Councilmember Ambriz concurred and stated that the Foundation might be able to hold a special meeting to discuss the request before its next regularly scheduled meeting.

City Attorney Guerra noted that the request could be forwarded to the Foundation, after which the Council could determine whether it needs to be discussed further at the Council level.

There being no further business to conduct, the meeting was adjourned at 7:25 p.m. ________________________________

Background and Analysis:

The City Treasurer is required by the State of California Government Code section 53646, to present to the City Council the City’s Investment Policy on an annual basis or when any change is proposed to be made to the policy.

The City of Irwindale’s Investment Policy was last reviewed and approved on June 11, 2025. The City Treasurer has reviewed the current Investment Policy and is recommending appropriate and necessary changes to the overall policy as shown in the legislative format of the attached Exhibit A, Draft City of Irwindale Investment Policy. The updated Investment Policy would be adopted via the proposed resolutions of the City Council, Housing Authority, Reclamation Authority, and Successor Agency.

Additionally, the proposed resolutions would renew the delegation of authority to invest or reinvest funds, or sell or exchange securities, to the City Treasurer for a one-year period pursuant to the State of California Government Code section 53607.

The Investment Policy continues to adhere to the City’s objectives of safety, liquidity and yield, and continues delegating investment authority to the City Treasurer.

The Investment Policy requires that an Investment Report be presented to the City Council/Boardmembers on a quarterly basis, which shall present the status of the City’s current investment portfolio. In accordance with this requirement, an Investment Report is presented to the City Council/Boardmembers on a quarterly basis.

The next Investment Report will be presented to the City Council/Boardmembers at their regularly scheduled meeting on July 22, 2026, and it will list the combined investment portfolio for the City of Irwindale, Successor Agency, Housing Authority, and Reclamation Authority as of the quarter ending June 30, 2026.

POLICY

The investment of the funds of the City of Irwindale (“City) is directed toward the goals of safety, liquidity and yield. The State of California authority governing investments for municipal governments is set forth in the California Government Code, Sections 53601 through 53659.

The primary objective of the investment policy (“Policy”) of the City is SAFETY OF PRINCIPAL. Investments shall be placed in securities as outlined in the authorized investments and maturity sections of this document. Effective cash flow management and resulting cash investment practices are recognized as essential to good fiscal management and control. The City monitors cash flow on a daily basis and reports results to City Council quarterly to help ensure that liquidity is never threatened. The City's portfolio should be designed and managed in a manner responsive to public trust and consistent with state and local law. Portfolio management requires continual analysis and as a result the balance between the various investments and maturities may change in order to give the City the optimum combination of necessary liquidity and yield based on cash flow projections.

SCOPE
The investment policy applies to all financial assets of the City as accounted for the Annual Comprehensive Financial Report (ACFR). Policy statements outlined in this document focus on the City’s pooled funds but will also apply to all other funds under the City Treasurer’s span of control unless specifically exempted by resolution. This includes funds of the City of Irwindale, as well as the Irwindale Successor Agency, Irwindale Housing Authority, and the Irwindale Reclamation Authority. Retirement, Pension and Deferred Compensation Funds are excluded from this Policy. Funds held by a fiscal agent or trustee and pledged to payment for, or security of bonds or other obligations of the City may be invested pursuant to the provisions governing the issuance of the bonds, debt or obligation of the City.

CITY OF IRWINDALE

INVESTMENT POLICY
JUNE 2026

EXHIBIT A

Page 30 of 217 ends
Page 2 of 9 ends

PRUDENCE
The standard to be used by investment officials shall be that of a “prudent investor” and shall be applied in the context of managing all aspects of the overall portfolio.

The “prudent investor” standard is defined as: When investing, reinvesting, purchasing, acquiring, exchanging, selling, or managing public funds, a trustee shall act with care, skill, prudence, and diligence under the circumstances then prevailing, including, but not limited to, the general economic conditions and the anticipated needs of the agency, that a prudent person acting in a like capacity and familiarity with those matters would use in the conduct of funds of a like character and with like aims, to safeguard the principal and maintain the liquidity needs of the agency. Within the limitations of this section and considering individual investments as part of an overall strategy, investments may be acquired as authorized by law.

The City Treasurer and other individuals assigned to manage the investment portfolio, acting within the intent and scope of the investment policy and other written procedures and exercising due diligence, shall be relieved of personal responsibility and liability for an individual security's credit risk or market price changes, provided deviations from expectations are reported in a timely manner and appropriate action is taken to control adverse developments.

OBJECTIVES
Safety
Safety of principal is the foremost objective of the City. Each investment transaction shall seek to ensure that capital losses are avoided, whether from securities default, broker-dealer default or erosion of market value. The City shall seek to preserve principal by mitigating the two types of risk, credit risk and market risk, defined below:

Credit risk, defined as the risk of loss due to failure of the issuer of a security, shall be mitigated by investing in investment grade securities and by diversifying the investment portfolio.

Market risk, defined as market value fluctuations due to overall changes in the general level of interest rates, shall be mitigated by limiting the average maturity of the City's investment portfolio to three years, the maximum maturity of any one security to five years, structuring the portfolio based on historic and current cash flow analysis, thereby eliminating the need to sell securities prior to maturity and avoiding the purchase of long term securities for the sole purpose of short term speculation.

Page 31 of 217 ends
Page 3 of 9 ends

Liquidity
The City’s investment portfolio will remain sufficiently liquid to meet all operating requirements that may be reasonably anticipated. This is accomplished by structuring the portfolio so that securities mature concurrent with cash needs to meet anticipated demands (static liquidity). A portion of the portfolio may be placed in money market mutual funds or local government investment pools that offer same day liquidity for short-term funds. Furthermore, since all possible cash demands cannot be anticipated, the portfolio should consist largely of securities with active secondary or resale markets (dynamic liquidity).

Rate of Return
The City’s investment portfolio shall be designed with the objective of attaining a market rate of return through budgetary and economic cycles, commensurate with the City’s investment risk constraints and the cash flow characteristics of the portfolio. Return on investment is of least importance compared to the safety and liquidity objectives described above.

SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY
Investments in corporate securities and depository institutions (including purchases of investments authorized by this policy and relationships for depository, custodial, brokerage and other financial services per this policy or otherwise) shall be made in furtherance of socially responsible goals to the extent that such investments achieve substantially equivalent safety, liquidity and yield compared to other similar investments permitted by state law. Investments are to be made that will bear in mind the responsibility of city government to its citizens. Investments that support community well-being; promote equality of rights regardless of sex, race, age, disability or sexual orientation; promote community economic development; provide a positive impact on the environment, fair workplace practices, robust corporate governance, high product integrity, and positive community involvement will be considered.

INVESTMENT MATURITY
To the extent possible, the City will attempt to match its investments with anticipated cash flow requirements. Unless matched to a specific cash flow, the City will not directly invest in securities maturing more than 5 years from the date of purchase. At no point in time, shall more than one third of the investment portfolio have a maturity date in excess of three years into the future.

Reserve funds may be invested in securities exceeding five years if the maturity of such investments is made to coincide as nearly as practicable with the expected use of the funds.

AUTHORIZED BANKS AND SECURITY DEALERS

In selecting financial institutions for the deposit or investment of City funds, the Treasurer shall consider the creditworthiness of institutions and utilize only those depositories that are qualified public depositories as established by state law. In addition, only broker-dealers that are authorized in the state of California will be utilized. The Treasurer shall continue to monitor financial institutions' credit characteristics and financial history throughout the period in which City funds are deposited or invested.

All broker-dealers who desire to become qualified bidders for investment transactions must supply the Treasurer with the following items: audited financial statements; National Association of Securities Dealers (NASD) certification; proof of state registration; and certification of awareness of, and familiarity with Irwindale’s investment policy. A competitive bid process will be used when practical to select broker dealers.

AUTHORIZED INVESTMENTS
Purchase of investments will be made with surplus funds available. Investments will be paid for, in full, as soon as practical after the time of trade. Purchases will not be made using leverage, margin accounts, reverse repurchase agreement, or other unfunded mechanisms. No investments shall conflict with Government Code section 53601.

Eligible vehicles for the investment of funds shall be limited to:
a) The State of California Local Agency Investment Fund (LAIF). b) Bonds issued by the City of Irwindale, including bonds payable solely out of the revenues from a revenue-producing property owned, controlled, or operated by the City or by a department board, agency, or authority of the City.
c) Bonds, notes, and similar securities issued by the United States Treasury.

There will be no options or like instruments purchased. d) Bonds, notes and similar securities issued by United States government agencies.
e) Registered state warrants or treasury notes or bonds issued by the State of California.

Page 33 of 217 ends
Page 5 of 9 ends

f) Bonds, notes, warrants or other evidence of debt issued by a local agency within the State of California, including pooled investment accounts sponsored by the State of California, County Treasurers, other local agencies or Joint Powers Agencies.
g) Medium-term notes (maximum maturity of 5 years or less) of corporations organized and operating within the United States rated “A” or better by nationally recognized rating agency. Purchases may not exceed 30% of the portfolio. h) Negotiable certificates of deposit which are fully insured by the Federal Deposit of Insurance Corporation (FDIC).
i) Collateralized bank deposits with a perfected security interest in accordance with the Uniform Commercial Code (UCC) or applicable federal security regulations.
j) Repurchase/Reverse Repurchase Agreements of any securities authorized by this Section. Investment in Repurchase Agreements may not exceed a term of one year and the market value of the securities that underlay a Repurchase Agreement shall be no less than 102% of the funds borrowed against those securities because Repurchase Agreement limitations are set forth in California Government Code 53601(j).
k) Other investment instruments whose principle is guaranteed by the US government through programs such as the Temporary Liquidity Guarantee Program. Thus, corporate bonds are allowable investments if they are insured by the federal government or FDIC (TLGP).
l) Loans between the City of Irwindale funds and other City Agency funds, which include the Housing Authority, Successor Agency, and the Reclamation Authority. Any loans made shall be approved by resolution which shall describe the purpose of the inter-agency fund loan and include a Promissory Note that stipulates all terms of the loan. The Interest for any inter-agency fund loan shall be in line with the customary interest rate of investments for similar terms as exhibited in the latest City Treasurer’s Quarterly Report of Investments.
m) Commercial Paper: Short-term instruments with a maximum maturity of 270 days or less, an “A1/P1” (prime) rating or better, with fixed coupons, fixed maturity and no call provisions and meeting all of the additional conditions in either paragraph (A) or (B) below.
(A) The issuer is a general corporation organized and operating

Page 34 of 217 ends
Page 6 of 9 ends

within the United States, has total assets in excess of five hundred million dollars, and has debt other than commercial paper, if any, that is rated in a rating category of “A” or its equivalent or higher by a nationally recognized rating agency.
(B) The issuer is organized within the United States as a special purpose corporation, trust, or limited liability company; has program wide credit enhancements including, but not limited to, overcollateralization, letters of credit, or a surety bond, and has commercial paper that is rated “A1/P1” (prime) or better by a nationally recognized rating agency.

Purchases may not exceed 25% of the portfolio and no more than 10% of any single issuer.
n) Money Market Funds registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 which (1) are “no-load” (meaning no commission or fee shall be charged on purchases or sales of shares); (2) have a constant daily net asset value per share of $1.00; (3) invest only in the securities and obligations authorized in this investment policy and (4) have a rating of at least two of the following: AAAm by S&P Global Ratings, Aaa by Moody’s or AAA/V1+ by Fitch. The aggregate investment in money market funds shall not exceed 20% of the City’s total portfolio. o) Supranational Organizations Securities, Limited to United States dollar denominated senior unsecured unsubordinated obligations issued or unconditionally guaranteed by: International Bank for Reconstruction and Development (IBRD), International Finance Corporation (IFC), and Inter-American Development Bank (IADB). The stated final maturity of such security shall not exceed five (5) years from the date of purchase. Rated in the rating category of “AA” or better by a nationally recognized rating agency. Purchases may not exceed 30% of the portfolio.

INVESTMENTS HELD SEPARATELY
Investments of bond proceeds will be held separately when required by the bond indentures or when necessary to meet arbitrage regulations. If allowed by the bond indentures, or if the arbitrage regulations do not apply, investments of bond proceeds will be held as part of the pooled investments. The City’s Policy does not apply to funds held in trust in the City’s name in pension and other-postretirement benefit programs.

DERIVATIVE INVESTMENTS
Derivatives are investments whose value is "derived" from a benchmark or index.

That benchmark can be almost any financial measure from interest rates to

Page 35 of 217 ends
Page 7 of 9 ends

commodity and stock prices. The City’s investment policy shall be in compliance with the California State Government Code, which, effective January 1996, prohibits the purchase of inverse floaters, range notes, interest only strips or securities that could result in zero interest accrual at any point in the life of the security.

Future purchases of securities classified as derivative securities must be issued by an agency or entity authorized by this investment policy and must receive prior approval from the Governing Body.

COLLATERAL REQUIREMENTS
Collateral is required for investments in certificates of deposits; repurchase agreements and reverse repurchase agreements. In order to reduce market risk, the collateral level will be at least 102% of market value principal and accrued interest.

The only securities acceptable as collateral shall be direct obligations of, or fully guaranteed as to principal and interest by, the United States or any agency of the United States.

SAFEKEEPING OF SECURITIES
To protect against fraud or embezzlement, or losses caused by collapse of an individual securities dealer, all securities owned by the City shall be held in safekeeping by a third-party bank trust department, acting as agent for the City under the terms of a custody agreement or Public Securities Association agreement (repurchase agreement collateral). All trades executed by a dealer will settle delivery vs. payment (DVP) through the City's safekeeping agent.

Securities held in custody for the City shall be independently audited on an annual basis to verify investment holdings.

All exceptions to this safekeeping policy must be approved by the City Treasurer in written form and included in monthly reporting to City Council.

PERFORMANCE EVALUATION
The investment portfolio shall be designed with the objective of obtaining a rate of return throughout budgetary and economic cycles, commensurate with the investment risk constraints and the cash flow needs.

Page 36 of 217 ends
Page 8 of 9 ends

The City’s investment strategy is passive. Passive investment portfolio management generally indicates that the Treasurer will purchase an instrument and hold it through to call or maturity and then reinvest the monies. Although the City’s investment strategy is passive, this will not restrict the Treasurer from evaluating when swaps are appropriate or if the sale of an instrument is prudent prior to final maturity. Given this strategy, the basis used by the Treasurer to determine whether market yields are being achieved will be the Local Agency Investment Funds (LAIF).

DELEGATION OF AUTHORITY
The Charter of the City assigns the custody of all City funds to the City Treasurer.

Pursuant to the Government Code, the City Council may delegate to the Treasurer for a one-year period the authority to invest or to reinvest all funds of the City. So long as the City Council’s annual delegation of investment authority pursuant to California Government Code Section 53607 to the City Treasurer is effective, no person may engage in investment transactions unless directed by the City Treasurer, or in the absence of such effective delegation, unless directed by the City Council. In the execution of this delegated authority, the City Treasurer may establish accounts with well qualified, financially sound financial institutions and/or brokers/dealers for the purpose of completing investment transactions in accordance with this policy. The City Treasurer shall establish procedures for the operation consistent with this investment policy.

ETHICS AND CONFLICTS OF INTEREST
Officers and employees involved in the investment process shall refrain from personal business activity that conflicts with proper execution of the investment program or impairs their ability to make impartial investment decisions.

Additionally, the City Treasurer is required to annually file applicable financial disclosures as required by the Fair Political Practices Commission.

INTERNAL CONTROL
The Treasurer shall establish an annual process of independent review by an external auditor. This review will provide internal control by assuring compliance with the City’s Investment Policy and for establishing internal controls that are designed to prevent losses due to fraud, negligence, and third-party misrepresentation. Accordingly, the City Treasurer shall establish procedures for the operation of the City’s investment program that are consistent with the provisions of this Investment Policy.

Internal controls deemed most important shall include (but not limited to):
avoidance of collusion; separation of duties and administrative controls; separating

Page 37 of 217 ends
Page 9 of 9 ends

transaction authority from accounting and record keeping; custodial safekeeping; clear delegation of authority; management approval and review of investment transactions; specific limitations regarding securities losses and remedial action; written confirmation of telephone transactions; documentation of investment transactions and strategies; and monitoring of results.

REPORTING
The City Treasurer shall provide the City Council/Boardmembers quarterly investment reports which provide a clear picture of the status of the current investment portfolio. The treasurer’s report shall include the type of investments, the issuers, maturity dates, par values, and the current market values of each component of the portfolio, including funds managed for the City by third party safekeeping custodians. The report will also include the source of the portfolio valuation. The report must also include a certification that the City will meet its expenditure obligations for the next six months as required by California Government Code Section 53646(b)(3). The City Treasurer shall maintain a complete and timely record of all investment transactions.

LEGISLATIVE CHANGES
Any State of California legislative action, that further restricts allowable maturities, investment type or percentage allocations, will be incorporated into the City's Investment Policy and supersede any and all previous applicable language.

POLICY REVIEW
The Statement of Investment Policy shall be updated annually in the month of June by the City Treasurer and submitted to the City Council for review and adoption.

Item #8.D.

Date: June 10, 2026
To: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
From: Julian A. Miranda, City Manager
Issue: Request to Conduct Fireworks Sales – Irwindale Sister City Association and Knights of Columbus Council 5650
City Manager's Recommendation:

Approve the requests of the following non-profit organizations / corporations / associations that meet the criteria established by the Irwindale Municipal Code to conduct fireworks sales, subject to compliance with all City, County and State regulations: Irwindale Sister City Association and the Knights of Columbus Council 5650.

Administrative Action:

Submitted by:

Theresa Olivares, Assistant City Manager
Prepared by:

Laura Nieto, Chief Deputy City Clerk
Approved by:

Julian A. Miranda, City Manager
Background and Analysis:

Fireworks sales are permitted by non-profit organizations, corporations, or associations, (1) organized

Page 42 of 217 ends

primarily for veteran, patriotic, welfare, civic betterment, religious or charitable purposes, (2) with the principal and permanent meeting place, office, or place of worship within the city, (3) established and organized within the City of Irwindale for a minimum period of one year (Chapter 8.16 of the Irwindale Municipal Code). This activity is a primary source of funds for these organizations and allows them to provide assistance to the community throughout the year.

The Irwindale Sister City Association and the Knights of Columbus Council #5650 have submitted applications for fireworks sales. The Irwindale Sister City Association is qualified to sell fireworks because they have been organized for the purpose of enhancing and informing future residents of the cultural and heritage connections with a community in the Republic of Mexico. The Knights of Columbus Council #5650 is qualified to sell fireworks because of their commitment to the exemplification of charity, unity, fraternity, and patriotism. Each organization has (1) been established in the City for a minimum period of one year, continuously, preceding the filing of their application for permit and (2) been conducting their meetings in Irwindale.

The organizations have provided the required documentation and refundable deposit. A copy of the application forms submitted by the Irwindale Sister City Association and Knights of Columbus Council #5650 are attached hereto. Confidential documentation (e.g., sales tax information) is on file in the office of the Chief Deputy City Clerk.

Applications require the exact location of the stand, as proposed. The Irwindale Sister City Association has proposed its stand to be located at 16000-16034 Arrow Highway and the Columbus Club has proposed its stand to be at 16025 Cypress Street.

Pursuant to Section 8.16.070 of the Irwindale Municipal Code, “All applications for fireworks stands shall be referred to the city council for approval, conditional approval or denial. The city council shall deny any fireworks stand permit if it finds that the public interest or safety is, or would be, jeopardized by the issuance thereof. The decision of the council shall, in all cases, be final and conclusive.” Here, based on staff’s review, there are no public interest or safety reasons that have been identified which would warrant denial of the applications. Accordingly, staff recommends approval of the applications for fireworks sales.

Fiscal Impact:

A $50 refundable security deposit is paid by the organizations when the application is filed. Upon final inspection by the Chief of Police, the deposit is refunded to the organization.

Item #8.E.

Date: June 10, 2026
To: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
From: Julian A. Miranda, City Manager
Issue: Proposed End-of-Year Closure of City Facilities for 2026 City Manager's Recommendation:

Approve the closure of some City facilities during the period of Monday, December 21, 2026, through and including Sunday, January 3, 2027, and authorize the City Manager to implement said closure.

Administrative Action:

Submitted / Reviewed by:

Theresa Olivares, Assistant City Manager
Prepared by:

Laura Nieto, Chief Deputy City Clerk
Approved by:

Julian A. Miranda, City Manager
Background and Analysis:

For the past eighteen years, the City Council has authorized end-of-year closures for a period of one and one-half to two weeks. The closures have proven to be very successful. Employees have reacted positively to the extended time off, and because this time of year is historically very slow, the City has not received any complaints from the public as a result of the closure.

Staff is proposing a two-week end-of-year closure from Monday, December 21, 2026 through and including Sunday, January 3, 2027. The affected employees will be given the option to use their leave

Page 60 of 217 ends

accruals or take time off without pay if they do not have sufficient leave accruals.

There are several reasons to favorably consider this closure:
• The time of year during which staff is recommending a City closure is historically a very slow time in most departments (both internally and externally), so the impact to public services is minimal;
• When an entire City department is closed during this slow period, employees do not face the large black-log of work typically experienced when an employee returns after a vacation; • City closures could result in a savings to the City, as employees will take time off during the closures by using accrued leave which reduces the City’s leave liability; • City closures would result in a modest reduction in utilities, expenses, fuel and supplies consumption;
• City closures would enable employees in one-and two-person departments to take time off at the same time as larger departments without impacting service to the public.

It is proposed that all departments close to the public from Monday, December 21, 2026 through and including Sunday, January 3, 2027, with the exception of the Irwindale Police Department (Records and Administrative staff excluded), the Irwindale Recreation Department, and the Irwindale Senior Center (Monday - Wednesday 9 am to 12:30 pm for the Senior Nutrition Program, and passive activities such as the cardio room and pool room use). Staff is proposing that employees be offered the option to use accrued leave (comp time, floating holiday, vacation, or administrative leave) or take the time off with no pay. The holiday schedule for 2026 will require the use of 70 hours of leave during the proposed closure period from Monday, December 21, 2026 through and including Sunday, January 3, 2027. All departments and impacted bargaining units (IMEA and ICEA) have been consulted regarding this potential closure, as the MOU with these bargaining units provides that the City Manager and City Council may authorize the closure after advance notification to all employees, residents, and other stakeholders. The City Manager may authorize, on a case-by-case basis, an employee to work during the closure.

As in previous years, future decisions to close City facilities will be made on a year-to-year basis after consideration on impact to operations and the public, meeting with departments and bargaining units, and at the discretion of the City Manager.

Fiscal Impact:

There would be no additional cost to the City; instead, closure would most likely result in savings to the City as mentioned above relating to utilities, fuel, accrued leave reduction and other operating expenses.

From: Julian A. Miranda, City Manager
Issue: Cancellation of August 12, 2026; November 11, 2026; November 25, 2026; and December 23, 2026 City Council meetings
City Manager's Recommendation:

Adopt Resolution No. 2026-42-3853 entitled, "A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF

IRWINDALE, CALIFORNIA, CANCELING REGULAR MEETINGS OF THE CITY COUNCIL SCHEDULED FOR AUGUST 12, 2026, NOVEMBER 11, 2026, NOVEMBER 25, 2026, AND DECEMBER 23, 2026".

Background and Analysis:

Page 62 of 217 ends

Staff is proposing 1) a summer legislative recess canceling the August 12, 2026, City Council meeting, 2) holding a special City Council meeting on Monday, November 16, 2026, in lieu of the regularly scheduled November 11, 2026 meeting, which falls on the Veterans Day holiday; and 3) canceling the November 25, 2026, and December 23, 2026, City Council meetings due to City Hall closures.

The cancelation of the August 12, 2026, meeting affords additional time for planning and review of current projects and programs, and provides an opportunity for elected officials and staff to better manage their respective workloads. It is not uncommon practice in neighboring cities to cancel one or more meetings a year with proper notice to members of the public.

Because the regularly scheduled first meeting in November falls on the Veterans Day holiday, staff is recommending that the City Council instead hold a special meeting on Monday, November 16, 2026, to maintain the Council's regular business schedule and allow for adequate consideration of City business.

Additionally, because the regularly scheduled second meetings in November and December fall during the holiday season (and City Hall may be closed to the public during the period December 21, 2026, through January 3, 2027), it would be appropriate for the City Council to consider canceling the meetings of November 25, 2026, and December 23, 2026, as has been done in past years.

Fiscal Impact:

A cost-savings is anticipated as no additional staff time will be utilized for staff overtime during the holiday season.

Background and Analysis:

The City of Irwindale is a unique municipality with a distinct civic identity, significant industrial and

Page 66 of 217 ends

commercial presence, and an important role in the regional economy. Despite its incorporation in 1957 and its longstanding status as an independent city, Irwindale does not currently have a ZIP Code that is uniquely assigned to the City. Instead, portions of the City are served by ZIP Codes associated with neighboring communities, primarily 91706, which is shared with the City of Baldwin Park.

The absence of a unique ZIP Code has created ongoing challenges for residents, businesses, property owners, and public agencies. Mail delivery addresses are often associated with neighboring cities rather than Irwindale, leading to confusion about municipal boundaries, business locations, emergency services, demographic data collection, and economic development efforts. The proposed legislation seeks to direct the appropriate federal agencies and the United States Postal Service to evaluate and establish a unique ZIP Code designation for the City of Irwindale. A unique ZIP Code would provide greater recognition of the City's identity and improve the accuracy of governmental, commercial, and public records.

A unique ZIP Code would provide several benefits to the City and its stakeholders, including:
• Strengthening the City's identity and recognition throughout the region and nation; • Improving address accuracy for residents and businesses located within City boundaries; • Reducing confusion associated with neighboring city designations on mailing addresses; • Enhancing economic development and business recruitment efforts by providing a clearly identifiable municipal address;
• Improving data collection, demographic reporting, and geographic analysis used by government agencies and private organizations; and
• Increasing visibility of the City in mapping systems, databases, and postal records.

For many years, city officials, businesses, and residents have expressed concerns regarding the lack of a distinct postal identity for Irwindale. Establishing a unique ZIP Code would help ensure that addresses within the City are properly recognized as part of Irwindale and reinforce the City's presence in Los Angeles County and the State of California. According to information from the U.S. Congressional Research Service, there are two ways for a municipality to request changes to its ZIP code boundaries:

Method 1: USPS ZIP Code Boundary Review Process
Any municipality seeking a ZIP code change can submit a written request to USPS. The USPS will evaluate the request based on cost, impacts on mail delivery, and issues related to community identity.

If the request is granted, the USPS will arrange a meeting with the proponent group to discuss USPS’ proposed accommodation. Once an agreement is reached, the USPS will commission a formal survey of customers who would be affected by the proposed ZIP code change. If a simple majority of the impacted residents approve, the USPS will notify affected customers of the official ZIP code change by mail and provide them with one year to transition their ZIP codes. If a ZIP code boundary request is denied by USPS, proponent groups have 45 days to submit an appeal.

Method 2: Acts of Congress
Congress may introduce legislation that requires the USPS to create a single ZIP code for a specified community. The most recent example of a ZIP code created by statute occurred in 2006 as part of the Postal Accountability and Enhancement Act. This Act granted ZIP code boundary changes for Bradbury, CA; Discovery Bay, CA; Auburn Township, OH; and Hanahan, SC.

Page 67 of 217 ends

Advocacy Work
Recently, the City joined an informal working group, the National Zip Code Advocacy Coalition, established by the City of Eastvale and the City of Castle Pines in Colorado. The Coalition provides a platform for jurisdictions that are experiencing similar ZIP code challenges to share best practices and partner with one another. As of this month, the Coalition includes over 80 municipalities across 30 states. Through this advocacy group, Senator Joni Ernst (R-IA), Senator Alex Padilla (D-CA), Senator John Barrasso (R-WY), and Senator Michael Bennet (D-CO) introduced S. 4505 "To require the United States Postal Service to designate ZIP Codes for certain communities," which includes 75 jurisdictions across the nation. The bill was introduced on May 12, 2026.

To further encourage passage of the proposed bill, support future advocacy, and demonstrate support for the legislation, staff recommends that the city council adopt a resolution and approve a letter of support to be sent to the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee and our respective Senators and Congress members. Staff will track the bill and update the council as needed.

Fiscal Impact:

There is no direct fiscal impact associated with approving the letter of support.

The Honorable Rand H. Paul, MD
Chairman
Committee on Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs United States Senate
Washington, D.C. 20510
RE: SUPPORT FOR ZIP CODE BOUNDARY CORRECTION LEGISLATION (S. 4505) Dear Senator Paul:

On behalf of the City of Irwindale, we express our strong support for S. 4505, legislation that would require the United States Postal Service to designate ZIP Codes for certain communities that currently lack distinct postal identities.

Despite numerous petitions from affected communities, the USPS consistently declined requests for ZIP code boundary adjustments and provided little feedback. It has been nearly two decades since Congress last enacted legislation directing the USPS to correct ZIP code boundaries.

Currently, legislation introduced by Representatives Ernst, Padilla, Barrasso, and Bennet (S. 4505) is pending before the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee and would require the United States Postal Service to designate ZIP Codes for certain communities, including Irwindale. This legislation would address the longstanding need for the United States Postal Service (USPS) to update ZIP code boundaries and designate revised boundaries for communities nationwide facing similar issues.

For many years, residents, businesses, public agencies, and community organizations in Irwindale have faced challenges due to the lack of a unique ZIP Code designation. Mail addressed to Irwindale is often associated with neighboring communities, creating confusion in mailing addresses, emergency services coordination, government records, demographic reporting, business operations, and community identity.

A dedicated ZIP Code for Irwindale would provide several important benefits:
• Improve mail delivery accuracy and efficiency.
• Enhance emergency response and public safety communications. • Ensure more accurate governmental, economic, and demographic data collection. • Strengthening community identity and recognition.
• Support local businesses by providing a clear and consistent geographic designation.

Page 69 of 217 ends

[City Letterhead]
• Reduce confusion for residents, visitors, service providers, and government agencies.

Irwindale is a unique municipality with its own local government, industrial base, businesses, and residents. The community deserves the same recognition afforded to other incorporated cities throughout the nation that maintain distinct ZIP Code designations.

I respectfully urge you and the Committee to advance S. 4505 and support its prompt consideration by the Senate. This legislation represents a practical and meaningful step toward ensuring fair and accurate representation of the postal service for communities such as Irwindale.

Beyond improving quality of life, this corrective legislation will enhance mail delivery efficiency in Irwindale and strengthen USPS service standards. We look forward to collaborating with you and the Committee members to advance this critical legislation.

Thank you for your consideration, and please do not hesitate to reach out to the City’s Assistant to the City Manager, Iris Espino, at [email protected] if you have any questions.

Instead, the City may give notice to Chamber of the default and the reasons for the default. The notice shall include the timeframe in which Chamber may cure the default. This timeframe is presumptively thirty (30) days, but may be extended, if circumstances warrant. During the period of time that Chamber is in default, the City shall hold all invoices and shall, when the default is cured, proceed with payment on the invoices. If Chamber does not cure the default, the City may take necessary steps to terminate this Agreement under this Article.

Page 80 of 217 ends

injunctive relief, or to obtain any other remedy consistent with the purposes of this Agreement.

Notwithstanding any contrary provision herein, Chamber shall file a statutory claim pursuant to Government Code Sections 905 et. seq. and 910 et. seq., in order to pursue any legal action under this Agreement.

Except with respect to rights and remedies expressly declared to be exclusive in this Agreement, the rights and remedies of the parties are cumulative and the exercise by either party of one or more of such rights or remedies shall not preclude the exercise by it, at the same or different times, of any other rights or remedies for the same default or any other default by the other party.

7.4 Termination Prior to Expiration of Term. This Section shall govern any termination of this Contract except as specifically provided in the following Section for termination for cause. The City reserves the right to terminate this Contract at any time, with or without cause, upon thirty (30) days’ written notice to Chamber, except that where termination is due to the fault of the Chamber, the period of notice may be such shorter time as may be determined by the Contract Officer. In addition, the Chamber reserves the right to terminate this Contract at any time, with or without cause, upon sixty (60) days’ written notice to City, except that where termination is due to the fault of the City, the period of notice may be such shorter time as the Chamber may determine.

Item #8.I.

Date: June 10, 2026
To: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
From: Julian A. Miranda, City Manager
Issue: Claim Rejection - Mary Basmajyan v. City of Irwindale City Manager's Recommendation:
(1) Reject the claim of Marie Basmajyan vs. City of Irwindale; and (2) Direct staff to send a letter of rejection.

Administrative Action:

Submitted by:

Theresa Olivares, Assistant City Manager
Prepared by:

Laura Nieto, Chief Deputy City Clerk
Reviewed by:

Adrian R. Guerra, City Attorney
Approved by:

Julian A. Miranda, City Manager
Background and Analysis:

On April 27, 206, the City received a claim for damages from claimant Mary Basmajyan. Claimant Basmajyan alleges that, while driving on the 210 Freeway near the I-605 interchange, a Waste Management truck collided with her vehicle, causing property damage and bodily injuries.

Page 90 of 217 ends

The claim was reviewed by the City’s claims adjuster, Athens Administrators. On May 4, 2026, staff sent a Notice of Insufficiency to the claimant's representative due to the lack of (1) a description of the date, place, and other circumstances of the occurrence or transaction which gave rise to the claim asserted, and (2) a general description of the indebtedness, obligation, injure, damages or loss incurred so far as it may be known at the time of presentation of claim. No further communications were received from the claimant and/or her representative. Subsequently, Athens Administrators has recommended rejection of the claim. The recommendation is made on the basis that the City of Irwindale does neither contract with Waste Management, nor employ any individuals who operate Waste Management trucks.

Accordingly, staff is recommending that the City Council reject the claim and direct staff to send a standard letter of rejection. Alternatively, the City Council may direct the City Manager to negotiate resolution of the claim.

Item #8.J.

Date: June 10, 2026
To: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
From: Julian A. Miranda, City Manager
Issue: Fifth Amendment to the Irwindale Fee Agreement for City Attorney Services with Aleshire & Wynder, LLP for Rate Structure Adjustment
City Manager's Recommendation:

Approve the Fifth Amendment to the Irwindale Fee Agreement for City Attorney Services with Aleshire & Wynder, LLP and Authorize the Mayor to Execute the Amendment.

Administrative Action:

Submitted/Approved by:

Julian A. Miranda, City Manager
Reviewed by:

Theresa Olivares, Assistant City Manager
Kambiz Borhani, Finance Director / City Treasurer
Background and Analysis:

On June 18, 2003, the City and Aleshire & Wynder, LLP (A&W) entered into the Irwindale Fee Agreement for City Attorney Services (“Agreement”), pursuant to which A&W agreed to provide attorney services to the City. The Agreement was amended on July 11, 2007 and again on January 10, 2018, by which the fee arrangement and billing practices were amended.

Adrian R. Guerra from A&W served the City as Assistant City Attorney from 2015 until July 2020. In July 2020, the City Council appointed him as Interim City Attorney. On September 23, 2020, the City Council removed the “interim” title and appointed him the official City Attorney. The Agreement was amended to reflect this appointment.

Page 97 of 217 ends

On July 10, 2024, the City Council approved and entered into fourth amendment to the Agreement to adjust the rate structure for City Attorney Services with Aleshire & Wynder, LLP.

Analysis:

Since 2003, A&W has only received three rate adjustments – in 2007, 2018, and 2024. By this proposed amendment, A&W is requesting its first rate adjustment in nearly 2 years to account for significant cost of living increases and inflation during this period.

The current and proposed rate structures are set forth below:

CURRENT PROPOSED

Reimbursable Reimbursable
Partner - $350/hour Partner - $475/hour

Page 98 of 217 ends

City staff have reviewed agreements for city attorney services from various cities including West Covina, Baldwin Park, and Azusa among several others. City staff found the proposed A&W rates are consistent with, and in many cases below, the rates in these cities.

The Agreement also applies to all boards, commissions and entities of the City including the Housing Authority, the Reclamation Authority, and the Successor Agency.

Associate - $300/hour Associate - $425/hour
Paralegal/Law Clerks -

Paralegal / Law Clerk Paralegal / Law Clerk
$145/hour $175/hour

Fiscal Impact:

While rates for various special services are proposed to increase, the monthly retainer service charge for general services would create an opportunity to reduce the overall amount paid for legal services considering it includes 90 hours of service at a reduced rate of $250 per hour. The City’s Executive Team, in coordination with the City Attorney's office legal team, will do their best to manage the

Page 99 of 217 ends

overall hours dedicated to general services in the hope of keeping the cost to the budgeted amount of $259,200 ($21,600 x 12 mos.) per year for general services included in the proposed FY 2026-2027 budget.

Page 106 of 217 ends

Background and Analysis:

In 2017, Senate Bill 1 (SB1) established a Road Maintenance and Rehabilitation Account (RMRA) to address basic road maintenance and rehabilitation of state highways and local streets and roads. Pursuant to Section 2032 of the Streets and Highways Code, a percentage of the funding from the new Road Maintenance and Rehabilitation Account will be allocated to eligible cities and counties for basic road maintenance, rehabilitation, and critical safety projects on local streets and roads.

Each city or county must submit a project list to the California Transportation Commission (CTC), pursuant to an adopted resolution, on an annual basis. SB1 also establishes annual reporting and audit requirements for RMRA expenditures.

The estimated amount of RMRA funds proposed to be received in FY 2026-27 and allocated pursuant to the City Council’s adoption of the FY 2026-27 budget meeting on June 24, 2026, for our city is $42,340. The eligible uses of SB1 RMRA funds include road maintenance and rehabilitation, safety projects, bicycle and pedestrian improvements, and traffic control devices.

The proposed project to use RMRA funding for FY 2026/2027 will be the Citywide Refreshing Striping & Pavement Markings project also proposed to be approved at the FY 2026-27 budget adoption meeting scheduled for June 24, 2026, which consists of the restriping of Arrow Highway, Live Oak Avenue, Irwindale Avenue, Foothill Boulevard, Rivergrade Road, Los Angeles Street, Avenida Barbosa. The useful life of these improvements is estimated to be 1 to 2 years.

Upon approval by the City Council, the project description and a copy of the adopted Resolution No. 2026-45-3856 will be submitted to the CTC as required to be eligible for receiving SB1 RMRA funding for FY 2026/2027.

Fiscal Impact:

The City of Irwindale will be eligible to receive an estimated amount of $42,340 for the FY 2026-27 Refresh Citywide Arterial/Street Striping & Pavement Marking project with the adoption of the attached resolution. RMRA funds are recorded in the State Gas Tax, account 21-00-000-33360-0000.

Background and Analysis:

During the current fiscal year, the City has completed multiple Capital Improvement Program (CIP) projects under the budget listed herein, resulting in a surplus of existing CIP funds available in the fiscal year 2025-2026 and allowing for the reallocation of funds to additional CIP projects as follows:

New CIP Projects

1. Since the grand opening of the new library will be soon, a new CIP is being proposed for the Repainting of Civic Center Facilities (CIP No. 8252) to ensure adjacent buildings visually complement a cohesive design of each other, creating a unified architectural aesthetic. Staff estimate the costs to be approximately $160,000, of which there is sufficient unused funds available under CIP Project No. 8228, whose Notice of Completion was filed at the September 24, 2025, City Council meeting, which may be transferred to set up this project.

2. As the library moves to its new location, it will create an opportunity for the KidZone TK/Kindergarten and Elementary programs to be relocated to that facility. To ensure the safety, security, and functionality of the program area for participants and staff, several improvements will be needed. Therefore, a new Kidzone Area Improvement Project (CIP No. 8254) for $128,221.30 is being proposed to be established to address the improvements needed when the time comes. Sufficient unused funds are available under CIP Project No. 8228, whose Notice of Completion was filed at the September 24, 2025, City Council meeting, which may be transferred to set up this project.

3. The Dan Diaz Recreation Center requires significant improvements to enhance facility functionality, operational efficiency, accessibility, safety, and programming capacity. To address these needs, the City has petitioned for a matching grant of $850,000 through Representative Gil Cisneros' office. This grant initially requires a $150,000 local contribution committed to secure the grant. Therefore, a new Dan Diaz Recreation Center Improvements Project (CIP No. 8255) for $150,000 is being proposed to be established to meet the matching requirement of this grant. Sufficient unused funds available under CIP Project No. 8228, whose Notice of Completion was filed at the September 24, 2025, City Council meeting, which may be transferred to set up this project.

Appropriation of Funds

1. For the FY 2025-2026 adopted budget, the estimated revenue for Local Return MTA - Proposition C was $32,163. These funds can be used for street pavement and will therefore need to be appropriated to the Pavement Rehabilitation Program Project (CIP No. 8359) whose Notice of Completion was filed at the January 28, 2026, City Council meeting.

2. For the FY 2025-2026 adopted budget, the estimated revenue for TDA Article 3 was $5,000.

These funds will also need to be appropriated to the Pavement Rehabilitation Program Project (CIP No. 8359), whose Notice of Completion was filed at the January 28, 2026, City Council meeting, as sidewalks were also improved during this project which is an allowable expenditure per TDA guidelines.

3. On July 13, 2016, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 2016-41-2855 approving a settlement offer from the California Joint Powers Insurance Authority (CJPIA) Insurance Company to replace the Irwindale Rock House located at 16203 Arrow Highway that was damaged due to fire on November 7, 2013. CJPIA agreement at the time, held back an amount of $174,899.77 allowing it to be claimed within 10 years by the City, if and when the structure was replaced.

On December 8, 2021, the City Council approved to utilize the replacement of the structure as part of the expansion of the Irwindale Public Library Project. CJPIA was presented with the plans, and after review, it recently issued a check to the City. Staff recommends that the City Council accepts CJPIA's final payment and approves its appropriation to the City of Irwindale Public Library Improvement Project Phase II (CIP No. 8251).

Transfers and Removals

1. The Recreation Improvement Project (CIP No. 8228) Notice of Completion was filed on September 24, 2025. The unused funds of $438,221.30 (General Fund) available under this project may be disbursed to establish the above three CIP projects. Upon City Council approval of these transfers, the project may be removed from the FY 2025-2026 adopted budget list.

2. The Swimming Pool Facility & Lift Remodel Project (CIP No. 8229) Notice of Completion was filed on May 14, 2025. The unused funds of $245,424.58 (General Fund) under this project may be transferred to Swimming Pool Improvements Project Phase II (CIP No. 8250). Upon City Council approval of the transfer, this project may be removed from the FY 2025-2026 adopted budget list.

3. The Pavement Rehabilitation Program Project (CIP No. 8359) Notice of Completion was filed on January 28, 2026. The unused funds of $267,944.68 under this project may be transferred to the following Projects: a) $192,220.68 to Arrow Highway Center Median Island #45, #46 & #47 Project (CIP No. 8361); b) $75,724 to Refresh Citywide Arterial/Street Striping & Pavement Marking Project (CIP No. 8362).

Background and Analysis:

The State of California Citizen Option for Public Safety (COPS) Program was enacted pursuant to AB 3229. The COPS Program provide a supplemental funding source for local governments for the purpose of ensuring public safety. There is no guarantee that this will be a continued funding source for the long term. For FY 2025-26, the City of Irwindale Police Department received $201,536.61 which is required to be used for “front-line municipal police services.” These funds must supplement existing services, and cannot be used to supplant any existing funding for law enforcement services. COPS funding for the prior fiscal year FY 2024-25 has earned interest in the amount of $10,874.85 from the City’s pooled investment accounts, which also has to be allocated for “front-line municipal police services.”
California Government Code Sections 30061 through 30065 establishes guidelines for the receipt and expenditure of COPS funding. This Code requires the City Council to certify approval of the COPS expenditure plan separate from the normal City budget process.

The COPS funding received from the state, plus the interest allocated at year-end total $212,411.46.

Fiscal Impact:

There will be no impact to the General Fund.

The Department of Justice (DOJ) Equitable Sharing Program (Asset Forfeiture) was federally enacted in 1984. The primary purpose of this program is to assist law enforcement in the deterrence of crime by depriving criminals of the profits and proceeds of their criminal activities and to weaken criminal enterprises by removing the instrumentalities of crime. An ancillary purpose of this program is to enhance cooperation among federal, state and local law enforcement agencies through the equitable sharing of federal forfeiture proceeds.

The Irwindale Police Department, in cooperation with federal, state, and local agencies, has participated in several investigations over the past four years that have resulted in the seizure of personal property to include automobiles and U.S. currency. Through the Equitable Sharing Program, the police department applied for and received a portion of funds from each related investigation from both federal and state equitable sharing programs. Allocations of funds through these programs are determined by the percentage of time and effort that a participating agency puts toward the case investigation that resulted in seized property.

Federal and state laws dictate permissible and non-permissible purchases that can be made with the received asset forfeiture funds under the asset forfeiture program. Permissible items for purchase with the received funds include law enforcement training in any area that is necessary to perform official law enforcement duties, equipment and operations for investigations and official law enforcement duties, telecommunications equipment, and law enforcement facilities and related items to include government furniture.

Asset forfeiture funds cannot be used for regular salaries of existing police officers, but may be used for the salary of police officers assigned to a specific task force for a specified period of time or under certain other conditions. The permissible appropriation of funds includes:
• Salary and overtime costs associated with asset forfeiture investigations • Law enforcement training
• Hardware, software, wireless connectivity and other required equipment related to the department's reporting and telecommunications infrastructure • Radio Communication Systems / In-car camera system / MDC-Mobile Data • Video surveillance equipment
• Equipment and operations related to investigations
• Executive Conferences - In State/Out of State
Federal Asset Forfeiture funds are received, appropriated, and spent out of Funds 16. These funds are separate from the General Fund.

The police department has received $145,165.68 for fiscal year 2025-26. In addition, funds in this account have earned interest in the amount of $15,190.09, for a total of $160,355.77.

If approved, the attached resolution allows for an appropriation of $160,355.77 in federal asset forfeiture revenue to be distributed to expenditure accounts as follows:

• 16-35-370-41200-1813 – Overtime - Narcotics Investigations $9,000.00 • 16-35-370-42110-0000 – Training $2,500.00

Background and Analysis:

The City of Irwindale adopted its existing business license tax code in 1960, and since that time no material change to the business license fee structure has been made, despite significant shifts in the way business is conducted today. Staff believes that a strategic, comprehensive review and modernization of the City's Business License Tax program is necessary, as it would position the City to equitably and fairly tax existing and emerging businesses. It would also institute improvements that would promote regulatory compliance and economic accuracy by ensuring businesses are correctly classified based on current data. Additionally, this will streamline the process and easing administrative burden on businesses.

As part of this effort, on February 11, 2026, staff engaged HdL Companies (HdL) to assist the City in facilitating a comprehensive business license tax ordinance / fee study analysis. HdL began its studies by: 1) compiling the data from our existing HdL business license tax software; 2) thoroughly reviewing our current municipal code, tax structure, and administrative procedures and processes involved in making recommendations; 3) assisting the City in selecting comparable jurisdictions to use for economic and financial benchmarking metrics; and 4) asses service delivery and performance, impacts on businesses, equity outcomes, and competitiveness.

This study looks at local business activity, compares Irwindale's data to those of comparable cities, and recommends equitable and fair types of tax structure models that could be considered if the City chooses to modernize and standardize its program. The study and presentation are intended to inform discussion and do not recommend adoption of any specific approach.

HdL proposed three tax models for the City to consider:

Model 1: Keeps the current structure while increasing rates by a flat percentage.

Model 2: Moves all business to one gross receipts rate.

Model 3: Divides business into five different categories and multiple tax rates.

NEXT STEPS:

After the workshop, staff will use the Council’s feedback and policy direction to determine whether to:
• Perform additional technical or policy analysis; and
• Refine or expand the concepts discussed in the presentation, including the development of additional model options; and/or
• Return to Council at a future date with more specific recommendations for consideration. If Council directs staff to pursue an amendment to the City’s existing business license tax structure that requires voter approval, staff will return to Council in accordance with the timeline outlined below.

If Council directs staff to pursue an amendment to the City’s existing business license tax structure that

Page 142 of 217 ends

Background and Analysis:

Page 144 of 217 ends

On January 28, 2026, the Irwindale City Council approved Resolution No. 2026-06-3717, approving an agreement with Decorative Elements to paint four (4) murals at the Irwindale Public Library. Staff and Decorative Elements have been working with several artists who were commissioned to design and paint the Founding Mothers, Reference Desk, Children's Area, and Learning Center murals.

An AdHoc Committee was formed to discuss and design the Founding Mothers mural, which will be presented to the City Council upon receiving the recommendation from the committee, which is anticipated to occur in June. The concepts for the remaining three (3) murals were discussed and approved by the City Council on July 24, 2024. On May 27, 2026, the City Council provided direction to staff and approved the designs of the murals to be displayed behind the reference desk and the children's area. As indicated by staff during the May 27th meeting, the Learning Center mural is being presented to the City Council for final approval prior to installation. Upon Council's approval, the artist will begin the installation process.

The Learning Center mural has been designed by Jeanine Hattas of Hattas Studios. As the artist and staff discussed the use of the learning center, it became apparent that this design needed to create an inviting learning environment, allowing the students to focus on their studies in a calming environment. This mural complements the other murals to be displayed in the library, and keeps with the library color scheme, resulting in a geometric-style mural that incorporates an image of the Coast Live Oak leaves. A recurring theme throughout the library is the Coast Live Oak, which also appears in the mural behind the reference desk.

From: Julian A. Miranda, City Manager
Issue: Update on City of Irwindale Heroes Program
City Manager's Recommendation:

That the Irwindale City Council provide direction to staff regarding the Irwindale's Heroes Program.

Administrative Action:

Submitted by:

Prepared by:

Reviewed by:

Adrian R. Guerra, City Attorney
Kambiz Borhani, Finance Director / City Treasurer
Approved by:

Julian A. Miranda, City Manager
Background and Analysis:

The City of Irwindale has a longstanding tradition of honoring the brave men and women who serve our country. To continue demonstrating community pride and appreciation, the council desires to reinstate the Irwindale Heroes Program, which recognizes active City of Irwindale residents currently serving in the United States Armed Forces.

Through this program, personalized banners will be displayed along Irwindale Avenue and Arrow Highway. Each banner would feature the service member's name and branch of service. The banners serve as a proud and visible expression of gratitude from the Irwindale community and reflect the City's ongoing commitment to supporting military families.

Page 148 of 217 ends

On May 27, 2026 the Irwindale City Council directed staff to research 1) the use of the Southern California Edison utility poles, 2) the length of time a banner may be displayed, 3) cost of the banner and brackets, and 4) best practices utilized by surrounding agencies for similar programs. Staff surveyed] the cities of Baldwin Park, Colton, Covina, Duarte, La Cañada Flintridge, Monrovia, Santa Ana, and Torrance.

Southern California Edison Streetlight Poles
Southern California Edison and the City entered into a License Agreement ("License") on October 25, 2007, allowing the City to hang traffic regulating signs, American flags, neighborhood watch signs, and banners on the Southern California Edison Streetlight Poles. The License allows the City to continue to utilize these poles for the Program, so long as the banners do not exceed 18 square feet at any one time. The Southern California Edison Streelight Poles along Irwindale Avenue and Arrow Highway will be used to display the banners.

Length of time for Banner to be Displayed
Staff recommends that the council update the Program policy to include a length of time for the banners to be displayed, as the existing policy states that the banners are to be displayed until the service person is discharged or at the City's discretion. The surrounding cities surveyed indicate various display times, including: displayed until no longer serving; a maximum of two years or until the banner shows signs of deterioration; displayed only during the month of November; until no longer serving or a maximum of two years; no time limit specified.

Staff recommends that the council consider the banners to be displayed until the service person is no longer serving or a maximum of two years, whichever occurs first. In doing so, the banner will be on display while the service person is actively serving. Additionally, including a two-year maximum will ensure that the banner is removed before signs of wear and tear become visible.

Eligible Participants
Eligible participants under the current policy include current Irwindale residents; immediate family member (parent, grandparent, spouse, sibling, or child) of a current Irwindale resident; and an employee or immediate family member of a business located in the City of Irwindale. Staff would like to confirm that it is the intent of the council to continue to utilize the established criteria.

Banner, Blue Star & Bracket Cost
Under the existing policy, banners for Irwindale residents were provided at no charge, and banners for an employee or immediate family member of an Irwindale business were sponsored by businesses in the Irwindale community at a cost of $169. Staff is working with a production company to design the banner. The previous banner display identified the individual's name and branch. Staff is exploring an option to include a photo of the individual on the banner. Staff estimates that the total cost will not to exceed $250 per banner and will include the brackets and a Blue Star Window Display for the family to display at their residence.

Page 149 of 217 ends

Banner Installation and Removal
City staff, specifically the Public Works Services Maintenance Division, currently installs all street banners and signs for the City. Of the cities surveyed, most utilize City resources to install and remove the banners. Some cities contract out this service, as they have a large quantity of banners to be installed and removed at one time, and very few partner with a non-profit organization to assist with this program.

Based on the previous release of this program, the quantity of banners requested was minimal, and typically consisted of installing one banner at any given time. The Maintenance Division would install the banners once the order was received. The program may continue to operate in this manner or the council may elect to contract out this service or seek a partnership with a non-profit organizations to determine if an organization is able to install and remove the banners.

Additional Items for Consideration

1. The current policy limits the banner program to active duty members of the United States Armed Forces or Coast Guard fighting the War on Terrorism. Staff recommends that "fighting the War on Terrorism" be removed from the policy.

2. Additional recognition - Staff recommends that the council consider recognizing new banner installments at a City Council meeting. The service member's family would be invited to attend a City Council meeting for recognition and presentation of the banner before it is displayed along Irwindale Avenue and Arrow Highway.

On or about June 28, 2001, in Fiscal Year 2001/2002, the City Council of the City of Irwindale ("City Council") adopted the Sewer Maintenance District (Irwindale Business Center) and established a sewer maintenance charge for the Sewer Maintenance District for the manner of levying such charge and maximum amounts to be charged for the fiscal year pursuant to the Improvement Act of 1911 (Streets & Highways Code § 5000 et seq.) (“Act”);
Furthermore, in Fiscal Year 2001/2002, the City of Irwindale (“City”) formed the Street Lighting Maintenance District (Irwindale Business Center) Resolution Number 2001-42-1762, to generate revenue and finance the cost of providing maintenance for the existing public street lighting system within the Irwindale Business Center. The Irwindale Business Center is a 116-acre private industrial development and the improvements to be maintained within the Street Lighting Maintenance District are appurtenant thereto within and benefiting all assessable parcels of land within the Street Lighting Maintenance District.

In order to maintain the Sewer Assessment District and the Street Lighting Assessment District, both located within the Irwindale Business Center, (each, “Assessment District” and collectively, “Assessment Districts”) and to establish the charge rate for the Fiscal Year 2026/2027 assessments, the City retained a professional engineering consulting firm for the preparation of the Engineer's Report for each Assessment District. The Engineer's Report for the Irwindale Business Center Sanitation and Sewage System is prepared in accordance with the methodology stated in Section 5473 of the Health and Safety Code. The Engineer's Report for the Irwindale Business Center Street Lighting Maintenance District is prepared in accordance with the methodology stated in Article 4, Chapter 1, Part 2, Division 15 of the Streets and Highways Code, beginning with section 22565 et seq.

1. The proposed assessments will defray the City’s costs in the administration of the Assessments Districts. The property owner will have an opportunity to address the City Council concerning the assessment district during the public hearing. Following the completion of the public hearing, the City Council will vote on the property assessments for the street lighting and sewer maintenance charges for Fiscal Year 2026/2027 and instruct the County Assessor’s office for the collection through tax bills.

2. Copies of the two approved Engineer’s Reports are included with the Resolution for each Assessment District.
a. The Sewer Maintenance District's anticipated assessment levy is $1,667.79 per Benefit Unit for Fiscal Year 2026/2027, which is based on the estimated cost of operations, maintenance, and future lift station replacement for that year.
b. The Street Lighting Maintenance District assessment to be levied is based upon each parcel within the boundaries of the District and the assessment was based solely on the benefit received from the streetlight maintenance. The Assessment per Benefit Unit is $179.06.

3. The Public Hearing for the Irwindale Business Center Sewer Maintenance District and Irwindale Business Center Street Lighting Maintenance District has been duly noticed in accordance with applicable laws. Following the completion of the respective Public Hearing, it is recommended that the City Council adopt the corresponding resolutions.

Fiscal Impact:

All costs for the maintenance and administration of the two Assessment Districts are budgeted and accounted for in the City’s Irwindale Business Center Assessment District Funds 44 and 45. There is no impact to General Fund expenditures, and there is nominal revenue reimbursed to the General Fund as administrative overhead for staff time allocated to the two assessment districts.

Sewer Maintenance District (Irwindale Business Center)
I. Introduction
To establish a revenue source based on benefit to property for funding the maintenance of public sewer facilities in the 116-acre private development, Irwindale Business Center, the Irwindale City Council (the “City Council”) directed the City Engineer to facilitate the formation of the Sewer Maintenance District (Irwindale Business Center) (the “District”) under the Health and Safety Code (“H&SC”), Sections 5470 et. seq., entitled "Sanitation and Sewerage Systems," which provides a method for collecting funds for the maintenance of sewer facilities on the property tax bills. The funding supported the maintenance of a sewer system and a lift station and the future replacement of the lift station (estimated for the year 2027) in the area known as the Irwindale Business Center.

In Fiscal Year 2001/2002, the City Council of the City of Irwindale (the “City”) established the District. The noticing and balloting requirements and other applicable provisions of Article XIIID of the California State Constitution were followed with respect to the formation of the Sewer Charge. It was determined that the sewer maintenance charge was a property-related charge and should be levied upon each parcel within the boundaries of the Irwindale Business Center. A maximum charge rate of $829.38 per Benefit Unit was established for Fiscal Year 2001/2002.

The rate imposed each year will be based on the estimated cost of operations, maintenance, and future lift station replacement for that year. For any year in which all other rates imposed under the Sewer Charge are adjusted by the change in the All Items, All Urban Consumers for the Los Angeles-Long Beach-Anaheim, Area Consumer Price Index (“CPI”), the maximum rate will also be adjusted by the CPI.

Section 5473 of the H&SC requires this Engineer's Report (the “Report”) to be prepared and filed with the City Clerk each year for the purpose of establishing the charge rate.

The charge rate for Fiscal Year 2026/2027 is presented herein in accordance with the methodology as set forth below.

Following approval of this Report, the City Council will hold a public hearing to provide an opportunity for any interested person to be heard. At the conclusion of the public hearing, the City Council may adopt a resolution confirming the levy of the charge as proposed or as modified.

II. Description of the Improvements
The City's existing sewer system facilities in the Irwindale Business Center include approximately 7,500 L.F. of 8" to 12" VCP gravity public sewer main and a sewer lift station, (3'-6" X 14", 1400 GPM, 75 HP dry well pumps and a 12,000 gallon wet well) built to capacity for the project.

III.Estimate of Cost
The cost of operation, maintenance, servicing of the improvements and the replacement of the lift station for Fiscal Year 2026/2027, as described above, are summarized herein and described in the table below.

SEWER MAINTENANCE COST ESTIMATE FOR FISCAL YEAR 2026/2027 Beginning Fund Balances (07/01/2026)
Lift Station Replacement Fund Balance $465,745
Total Beginning Fund Balances $465,745
Budget Items
Annual Maintenance Cost (Sewer) $14,110
Annual Maintenance Cost (Lift Station) 10,000
City Administration 25,580
District Administration 2,341
Public Notice Publication 620
Legal Fees 170
LA County Assessor’s – Admin Fee 56
Maintenance & Administration Costs $52,877
Replace Lift Station / Bypass System (1) $131,542
Balance to Levy (2) $184,419
Total BU 110.58
Levy per BU FY 2026/2027 $1,667.79
Max Rate per BU FY 2026/2027 $1,667.7950
Estimated Ending Fund Balances (06/30/2027)
Lift Station Replacement Fund Balance (1) $597,288
Total Ending Fund Balances $597,288
(1) Annual cost for the replacement of the lift station at the end of its useful life estimated to occur in the year 2016. This cost was estimated to be $750,000 in 2000. Due to increased equipment, material, and labor costs in 2007 the Los Angeles County Maintenance Division recommended a 30% increase to this estimate to a cost of replacement of $975,000. In addition, in 2014 the Los Angeles County Maintenance Division recommended construction of a bypass system to allow for continuous operation while routine maintenance continues to be performed on the gravity sewer main. Furthermore, the replacement of the station sewer piping shall use stainless steel pipes instead of ductile iron pipes. This increased the cost from $975,000 to $1,325,000.

The replacement of the gravity sewer main was scheduled to begin in Fiscal Year 2014/2015 and was estimated to be completed in 2-3 years. As such, the total amount to collect became $1,325,000 - $825,000 (Collected through Fiscal Year 2013/2014) = $500,000 over the next 6 years starting Fiscal Year 2014/2015. Annual charge starting Fiscal Year 2014/2015 = $500,000/6 years = $83,333.33 per year. However, the City unexpectedly did emergency repair and replacement in Fiscal Year 2014/2015, as explained below, which depleted the funds. The City will continue to collect toward the Lift Station replacement to the maximum capacity allowed in order to replenish the fund.
(2) The net amount to be assessed upon assessable lands within the District being the total operating, maintaining, and servicing costs. Actual levy to the Los Angeles County will vary due to rounding.

Sewer Maintenance District (Irwindale Business Center)
IV. Method of Apportionment and Rate Calculator
The land use for all the parcels within the boundaries of the Sewer Maintenance District area as the area fully develops will be industrial. It has been determined that the sewer maintenance charge is a property related charge, and that a charge based on parcel acreage is a reasonable method for apportioning the maintenance costs. The special benefit will be expressed as a Benefit Unit (“BU”). For every parcel, one (1.00) BU will be assigned per acre.
• Developed and undeveloped parcels will be assessed one (1.00) BU per acre. • Exempt from the assessment would be the areas of public streets, public easements and rights-of-ways. Also exempt from assessment would be utility rights-of-way, common areas, and sliver parcels not developable, as these parcels do not benefit from the improvements.

The sewer lift station located on parcel 8417-036-900, the storm water detention basin on parcel 8417-027-094 which later became parcel 8417-027-908, and the utility easement to Valley County Water District on parcel 8417-035-900 do not benefit from the sewer system and are exempt from the maintenance charge.

Southern California Edison has purchased parcel 8417-036-002 which became 8417- 036-800. This parcel is not exempt from the Sewer Maintenance District and is assessed as parcel 9014-800-001 (State Board of Equalization (“SBE”) assigned parcel number).

The Maximum Allowable Assessment rate for Fiscal Year 2026/2027 is $1,667.7950. This rate is calculated by adjusting the maximum rate established for Fiscal Year 2001/02 of $829.38 per BU by the CPI for All Items, All Urban Consumers for the Los Angeles-Long Beach-Anaheim, Area for the prior year (CPI April 2025 = 342.565, CPI April 2026 = 355.166, increase of 101.113% cumulatively).

Sewer Maintenance Total Costs: $184,419
Sewer Maintenance District Rate Fiscal Year 2026/2027:
$184,419.22 ÷ 110.58 Total BU = $1,667.79/BU
Maximum Sewer Maintenance District Rate: $1,667.7950/BU This maximum rate reflects the April 2025 to April 2026 CPI increase of 3.68% over the maximum rate of $1,608.6230 for Fiscal Year 2025/2026.

This Engineer’s Report (the “Report”) has been prepared pursuant to and in compliance with the requirements of Article 4, Chapter 1, of the Landscaping and Lighting Act of 1972 (the "1972 Act") which is Part 2, Division 15 of the California Streets and Highways Code and Article XIIID of the Constitution of the State of California (“Article XIIID”). In Fiscal Year 2001/2002, the City of Irwindale (the “City”) formed the Street Lighting Maintenance District (Irwindale Business Center) (the “District”) to generate revenue and finance the cost of providing maintenance for the existing public street lighting system within the Irwindale Business Center. The Irwindale Business Center is a 116-acre private industrial development and the improvements to be maintained within the District are appurtenant thereto within and benefiting all assessable parcels of land within the District.

Noticing and balloting requirements and other applicable provisions of Article XIIID were followed with respect to the formation of the District. The assessment to be levied upon each parcel within the boundaries of the District and the assessment was based solely on the benefit received from street light maintenance. A maximum assessment rate of $97.29 per Benefit Unit (“BU”) was established for Fiscal Year 2001/2002. For any year in which all other rates imposed under the District are adjusted by the change in the All items, All Urban Consumers for Los Angeles-Long Beach-Anaheim Area Consumer Price Index (“CPI”), the maximum rate will also be adjusted by the CPI.

Street Lighting Maintenance District (Irwindale Business Center) V. Method of Apportionment of Assessment
A) General
The 1972 Act permits the establishment of assessment districts by cities for the purpose of providing certain public improvements which include operation, maintenance, rehabilitation, and servicing of streetlights.

The 1972 Act requires that maintenance assessments be levied according to benefit rather than according to assessed value. Section 22573 provides that:
“The net amount to be assessed upon lands within an assessment district may be apportioned by any formula or method which fairly distributes the net amount among all assessable lots or parcels in proportion to the estimated benefits to be received by each such lot or parcel from the improvements.” In addition, Article XIIID requires that a parcel's assessment may not exceed the reasonable cost of the proportional special benefit conferred on that parcel. Article XIIID provides that only special benefits are assessable and the City must separate the general benefits from the special benefits.

B) Proposition 218 Benefit Analysis
In conjunction with the provisions of the 1972 Act, Article XIIID addresses several key criteria for the levy of assessments, notably:

Article XIIID Section 2(d) defines District as follows:
“District means an area determined by an agency to contain all parcels which will receive a special benefit from a proposed public improvement or property-related service”;
Article XIIID Section 2(i) defines Special benefit as follows:
“‘Special benefit’ means a particular and distinct benefit over and above general benefits conferred on real property located in the district or to the public at large.

General enhancement of property value does not constitute ‘special benefit.’” Article XIIID Section 4(a) defines proportional special benefit assessments as follows:
“An agency which proposes to levy an assessment shall identify all parcels which will have a special benefit conferred upon them and upon which an assessment will be imposed. The proportionate special benefit derived by each identified parcel shall be determined in relationship to the entirety of the capital cost of a public improvement, the maintenance and operation expenses of a public improvement, or the cost of the property related service being provided. No assessment shall be imposed on any parcel which exceeds the reasonable cost of the proportional special benefit conferred on that parcel.”

2026/2027 City of Irwindale Page 6
Street Lighting Maintenance District (Irwindale Business Center) This District was formed to establish and provide for the improvements that enhance the presentation of the surrounding properties and developments. These improvements will directly benefit the parcels to be assessed within the District.

The assessments and method of apportionment are based on the premise that the assessments will be used to construct and install street lighting improvements within the existing District as well as provide for the annual maintenance of those improvements, and the assessment revenues generated by District will be used solely for such purposes.

The costs of the proposed improvements have been identified and allocated to properties within the District based on special benefit. The improvements to be provided by this District and for which properties will be assessed have been identified as an essential component and local amenity that provides a direct reflection and extension of the properties within the District of which the property owners and residents have expressed a high level of support.

The method of apportionment (method of assessment) set forth in the Report is based on the premise that each assessed property receives special benefits from the street lighting improvements within the District, and the assessment obligation for each parcel reflects that parcel’s proportional special benefits as compared to other properties that receive special benefits.

To identify and determine the proportional special benefit to each parcel within the District, it is necessary to consider the entire scope of the improvements provided as well as the properties that benefit from those improvements. The improvements and the associated costs described in this Report have been carefully reviewed and have been identified and allocated based on a benefit rationale and calculations that proportionally allocate the net cost of only those improvements determined to be of special benefit to properties within the District. The various public improvements and the associated costs have been identified as either “general benefit” (not assessed) or “special benefit.”

Street Lighting Maintenance District (Irwindale Business Center) C) Apportionment by Parcel Size
Acreage has been selected as the principal unit for calculating the special benefit conferred upon the parcels by the street lighting improvements and for apportioning the total assessment. The special benefit will be expressed as Benefit Unit (BU). Every parcel will be assigned one benefit unit (1.0 BU) per acre. • All developed and undeveloped parcels. All parcels will be assessed one (1) benefit unit per acre.
• Exempt. Exempt from the assessment would be the areas of public streets, public easements, and rights-of-ways. Also exempt from assessment would be utility rights-of-way, common areas, and sliver parcels not developable, as these parcels do not benefit from the improvements. The storm water detention basin on parcel 8417-027-094, which became 8417-027-908, and the utility easement to Valley County Water District on parcel 8417-035-900 do not benefit from the lighting system and are exempt from the lighting assessment.

Southern California Edison has purchased parcel 8417-036-002, which became 8417-036-800. This parcel is not exempt from the lighting assessment and is assessed as State Board of Equalization (“SBE”) parcel 9014-800-001.

The sewer lift station located on parcel 8417-036-900 benefits; therefore, it is not exempt and is included in the lighting assessment.

A summary of Benefit Unit (BU) rates is shown in the table below:

Land-Use Category Basic Unit BU Factor BU Rates
Exempt 0 acres X 0.0 = 0.0 BU/Acre
All other 1 acres X 1.0 = 1.0 BU/Acre
D) Special Benefit Determination
Street Lighting: Proper maintenance and operation of the street lighting system benefits all properties by enhancing overall safety, mitigating crime, alleviating the fear of crime, and promoting business and industry.

Street lighting provides special and direct benefit to all properties within the District as these lighting benefits are directly related to the positive enhancement of the area and therefore increase property desirability.
