CERTIFIED PROGRAMMATIC FINAL ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT
REPORT AND ADOPTING FINDINGS PURSUANT TO THE
CALIFORNIA ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY ACT
Mayor Chris Barajas a nnounced that this item involves two separate land use approvals that have been batched together because they both involve an amendment to the City's General Plan. State law limits the number of times that the City's General Plan can be amended, but allows a City to group several General Plan amendments together in one hearing.
The first item is the proposed Serrano Oaks Project of 66 Townhomes on Clay Street between Haven View Drive and Linares Avenue. This Project requires a General Plan Amendment, Specif ic Plan Amendment, Change of Zone, Site Development Permit, Tentative Tract Map, Variance and adoption of a Mitigated Negative Declaration under CEQA.
The second item are proposed General Plan Amendments and Zone Changes that are necessary for compliance with the Regional Housing Needs Allocation as well as an Addendum to the General Plan EIR. Two properties are involved: 1) the first is generally north of the Pedley Metrolink Station; and 2) the second is on the western side of the De Anza Marketplace Shopping Center.
Since these two items are batched together, there will be a brief staff report that will introduce both items and then a more detailed staff presentation will be given on each item. At the end of the staff report on each of the items, there wi ll be an opportunity for the applicant and members of the public to provide input on each item. After deliberating on each item, the City Council will hold a tentative vote on
-12-
that item. The General Plan amendments for both projects will be considered in one global resolution as required by State law.
Due to technical difficulties, the mayor called a 10 minute recess.
A. FOR MA21245 SERRANO OAKS:
Reynaldo Aquino, Senior Planner, presented the staff report. He provided an overview of the proposed project, the entitlements required, and the traffic assessment and mitigation measures. Mr. Aquino reported that the proposed project includes 66 two-story townhomes with a pool, two-car garages, community recreation area, a tot lot and a gated dog park. Each unit will include private open space for each resident, and EV ready infrastructure.
Following further discussion, Council Member Brian Berkson stated that the only issue he has is that the residential buildings are located on the east side because they are overlooking existing single-family homes. He asked if the developer could clarify this issue.
The applicant spoke on behalf of the project and responded to Council’s questions. In response to Council M ember Berkson’s concerns, the applicant provided an overview of how the proposed landscaping buffer would provide screening for the eastern side of the project.
Discussion followed regarding the proposed landscape buffer and the estimated price point for the townhomes.
Eduardo Martinez spoke on behalf of the project as it will provide much needed affordable housing. He stated that he is in favor of high density residential projects such as townhomes as they provide more housing options for residents who wish to become homeowners.
An unidentified speaker urged the City Council not to rezone the property on Pedley to high density zoning as it will be detrimental to existing property owners.
Council Member Brian Berkson voiced his concern regarding the proposed landscape buffer which he believes will be very unpleasant for existing homeowners. He sated that he is not against the project, however, he is not in favor of a two-story unit looking down on existing homes.
Further discussion followed.
Prior to the motions below, the City Council took a tentative vote on Items (i), (ii), and (iii).

B. FOR PROPOSED AMENDMENTS TO ENSURE COMPLIANCE
WITH THE REGIONAL HOUSING NEEDS ALLOCATION
(RHNA):
Staff Report presented by Mary Wright, Project Manager. Ms. Wright provided background on the City’s Housing Element that was certified last year and the sites inventory where potential sites are determined to meet their ability to meet the regional housing needs allocation in all income levels (RHNA). Ms. Wright reported that in January 2023, the Paradise Knolls project was approved at a lower density than was assumed in the Housing Element which caused a shortfall in some of the RHNA in the low income category. Ms. Wright reported that this is a follow up to the meeting of April 6, 2023 where the City Council directed staff to look at additional sites to make up the RHNA shortfall. At that meeting, the City Council directed that Sites 5a and 14a be brought forward for redesignation and rezone to make up for the shortfall. Council also requested additional information regarding Site 15a . She noted that at their May 24, 2023 meeting, the Planning Commission voted 3-1 approving GPAs and CZ’s for the 5a site without the portion in the Equestrian Overlay Zone and the 14a site south of the driveway. In addition, the Planning Commission recommended that the Council consider expanding Site 14a as requested by the property owner. She reported that to be in compliance with state law, the City has until July 18, 2023 to redesignate and rezone property to make up for the shortfall.
Joel Martinez voiced concern that Pedley Road is not a good loca tion for high density residential zoning as Pedley Road is currently a two-lane road.
When he moved to Jurupa Valley 17 years ago, he moved for the equestrian lifestyle which he believes is slowing being eroded.
Antonio Arizs discussed the principles of democracy and encouraged the Council to help curb the high density housing. He stated that there is a serious homeless issue and the Council needs to confront it. He urged the Council to create a dialogue with the community and not give themselves to the warehouses like the City of Fontana did.
Christine Galvan spoke in opposition to high density zoning on Pedley Avenue because there are already issues with traffic on Pedley Avenue. She
-15-
stated that she wants to see the equestrian and agriculture lifestyle continue in Jurupa Valley.
Edgar Castelan spoke in support of rezoning to allow for more affordable housing as Jurupa Valley needs housing. The proposed townhomes near public transportation is a good idea as it fosters more walkable areas and reduces vehicle use. He stated that it is possible to create more housing types while also respecting the existing equestrian lifestyle in the City.
Maribel Nunez stated that she is an affordable housing advocate. She encouraged the Council to help community wealth by promoting home ownership. She encouraged the Council to look at other resources to provide affordable housing.
Roberto Ramirez expressed concerns regarding high density residential on Pedley Avenue as there are a lot of equestrians in this area. He encouraged the Council to listen to their constituents as the Council works for them.
Council Member Armando Carmona indicated that despite Sacramento’s mandate that cities build more housing ; the legislature is now considering how that development will impact equestrian communities. He stated that there may be future amendments to ensure that developers are not empowered to develop near equestria n communities. He suggested revisions to the proposed Council action by reducing the parcel on Pedley Avenue and consider the site near the Albertson’s instead.
Further discussion followed.

i A motion was made by Council Member Leslie Altamirano , seconded by Mayor Pro Tem Guillermo Silva , to adopt

8. PUBLIC APPEARANCE/COMMENTS
Greg Sambo stated that he has lived on Martingale Drive for 35 years. He was recently notified that he is responsible for abating the weeds in the easement above his home. He questioned why the private property owner is not being assessed for the weed removal as he has no access to this area. He thanked the City for removing the graffiti and for the trash removal along Ben Nevis Avenue. He added that the sidewalk near Martingale Elementary School has become a “drawbridge” and it seems to be getting worse. He asked if City staff could look into this matter.
Philip Whittlesey echoed the previous speaker’s comments. He has lived in his home for the past 23 years and he also received a letter regarding weed abatement on the lot above his home that he has no access to.
Tom Elder addressed the following concerns: 1) illegal residents who are “eating up City resources”; 2) people out on the street cooking which is hurting brick and mortar restaurants; 3) a lack of electric vehicle chargers in the City; 3) he can write his own complaints and he has no problem suing the City; 4) the project on Van Buran and Jurupa Road is taking too long; 5) the firefighters out of Station 19 waited for their food takeout before leaving for a fire.
Mayor Chris Barajas made the following comments: For residents in the audience, every person has a constitutional right to free speech, however, xenophobic or bigoted they might be and the City Council cannot respond. He clarified that i n no way is the Council ’s silence supporting or opposing public comments.
Colin Markovich, field representative for Assembly Member Sabrina Cervantes announced that Assembly Member Cervantes was able to secure $8 million for the UCR School of Medicine, $3 million for an Inland Empire LGBTQ Resource Center, and $33 million for campus expansion at UC Riverside. He announced that her office will co-sponsor a teacher appreciation resource event at the Springbrook Clubhouse in Riverside on August 10 th from 4:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m.

Council Member Armando Carmona requested that Item 13.D be removed from the Consent Calendar for further discussion. He discussed the Council’s action at the July 27, 2023 meeting, where an allocation of highest density residential zoning was applied to various sites in the City in order to meet the state mandated Regional
-7-
Housing Needs Assessment (RHNA). He noted that the Council is required to rezone eight acres to the highest density and last week, the decision was to rezone almost 20 acres. He requested that this amount be reduced to the required eight acres as one of the larger parcels in the Equestrian Overlay is on Pedley Road. He suggested other sites that could be substituted in order to meet the state’s RHNA requirement.
Further discussion followed.

Jim Pechous, Principal Planner presented the staff report. He reported that the proposed amendment includes the following five components: 1. Amend Residential Accessory Building Standards; 2. Adding setbacks to zones; 3. Update Definitions; 4. Amend wall and fence standards; and 5. Amend Traditional neighborhood design standards. Mr. Pechous highlighted some of the recommendations made by the Planning Commission including their recommendation that the ordinance include a grandfather clause to the amended wall and fence standards, to allow chain-link fences established prior to September 1, 2023 to be repaired, maintained and re placed with like fencing. They also recommended adding the word “perimeter” to exclude any interior fencing.
Further discussion followed.
Mayor Chris Barajas opened the public hearing.
Roberto Ramirez voiced a concern that this could take local fence companies out of business. He stated that he does not support these changes especially if it will hurt residents who may not be able to afford high -end fencing. As block wall fencing is expensive, he believes that this decision should be made by the homeowner.
There being no further comments, the public hearing was closed.
A motion was made by Council Member Leslie Altamirano , seconded by Mayor Pro Tem Guillermo Silva , to introduce Ordinance No. 2023 -13, as amended to change the A -1 ad R -A zone rear yard setback to five feet and approve the addition of a definition of perimeter as recommended by the Planning Commission, entitled:

Created dual business blogs. One for the community and a more detailed “how-to” for their members.
Retention program created, which includes a phone call from one of the Board of Directors, a social media post, a plaque and thank you letter, check-in phone calls and postcards.
Worked closely with the City to promote economic development. Promoted City events on social media platforms.
Continued to plan ribbon cuttings, mixers, business networking opportunities and events.
Hosted the Mayor’s Prayer Breakfast and currently planning the State of the City.
The Covid-19 pandemic posed numerous challenges to local business es that both the City and Chamber helped alleviate as restrictions were lifted and businesses were able to resume normal operations. To that end, in 2021 the Chamber proposed a City- sponsored discounted Chamber membership to be included with all new and renewing business registrations that are currently not Chamber members. The Covid Relief Jurupa Valley Economic Development program with the Chamber of Commerce brought seventeen new members in 2021 -2022 to the Chamber of Commerce. The Chamber requested the continuation of the program for 2022-2023. The goal would be to introduce as many businesses as possible to the benefits of Chamber membership as well as a goodwill measure on behalf of the City.
In 2022 -2023 with the in-person, Chamber of Commerce meetings, the memberships have consistently increased. In the 2022-2023 year there were 54 new members bringing the total memberships to 168 members. They continue to have monthly networking meetings as well as several additional networking and workshop meetings throughout the year.

STAFF REPORT
DATE: AUGUST 17, 2023
TO: HONORABLE MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL
FROM: ROD BUTLER, CITY MANAGER
SUBJECT: AGENDA ITEM NO. 12.E
CONSULTANT AGREEMENT BETWEEN TH E CITY OF JUR UPA
VALLEY AND B&A GRANT SERVICES AND SOFTWARE FOR GRANT
WRITING SERVICES
RECOMMENDATION
1) That the City Council approve the Agreement between the City of Jurupa Va lley and B&A Grant Services and Software (B&A) for grant writing services and authorize the City Manager to execute the Agreement.
BACKGROUND
The City entered into an agreement with B&A during Fiscal Year 2022 -2023 to provide grant writing, monitoring and consulting services. Over the past year B&A and City staff successfully completed and submitted grant applications totaling $7,400,710. The first of these projects, “Pacific Avenue Trail Phase 2”, was just awarded $690,120. Notification on the remaining applications is expected during the 3rd quarter of the 2023 calendar year.
While staff and B&A remain confident that our outstanding applications are well written, very competitive and will likely receive funding, decisions on those grants are still to come.
B&A provides services on a custom ized basis tailored specifically to meet the needs of the client and allows the City to pay for desired services as requested and upon completion of the work performed. This allows for increased flexibility and support both during the research and development stage and into the grant writing, management, and reporting phases of the grant projects. Over the past 20 years, B&A has written over 1,200 grants worth $2 billion in grant value. They currently serve over 25 cities and represent clients from all levels of government and come with excellent references.
RETURN TO AGENDA
Page | 2
As part of the Fiscal Year 202 3-2024 budget process, the City Council appropriated $70,000 for grant writing services.
ANALYSIS
During the term of the existing contract, the City has received excellent service from B&A; all goals, timelines, grant submissions deadlines were achieved and remained within the scope of the approved agreement. In addition to the submitted grant applications, B&A provides staff with customized grant opportu nity summaries, grant consulting services, and monthly executive level staff meetings to review potential future grant opportunities and review grant application milestones. As important as B&A’s skills are in developing grant applications , perhaps as valu able has been their expertise in advising the City regarding which grants which are not likely to yield favorable results. Staff has been very pleased with B&A’s ability to assist with the efficient navigation and prioritization of the thousands of federal and state Notice of Funding Availability (NOFA’s) that are released each year.
Section 3.15.100 of the Jurupa Valley Municipal Code, professional services are defined as services provided by any specially trained and experienced person or firm in areas such as accounting, engineering, finance, and planning. Agreements for professional services are awarded by the City Council on the basis of the demonstrated competence, qualifications, and on the fairness and reasonableness of the cost of services to the City, and shall not be awarded solely on the basis of cost. B&A has agreed to continue providing the same scope of services that were provided to the City last year in their Fiscal Year 2023-2024 proposal, with no changes to cost.
It is staff recommendation that the City continue to partner with B&A for the purpose of providing grant writing, monitoring and consulting services.
FINANCIAL IMPACT
There is no new or additional budgetary impact. The City Council, included $70,000 for grant writing services in the Fiscal Year 2023-2024 budget. The Agreement calls for a not to exceed amount of $70,000 for grant writing services, which includes three to four grants submitted during the contract term.
ALTERNATIVES
1. Do not approve the Agreement between the City and B&A Associates
2. Provide alternative direction to staff.

RECOMMENDATION
1. That the City Council approve the purchase of one new John Deere 310P Backhoe Loader for the Public Works Department from RDO Equipment, Rive rside, in the amount of $163,283.04.
BACKGROUND
The City covers 44-square miles and the maintenance of public streets is provided by in- house staff and through outside contracts. The City currently has seven in -house maintenance workers who are responsible for responding to resident requests for service, emergency calls, sign replacement installation, illegal dumping, and related miscellaneous services.
Last fiscal year, Public Works maintenance staff responded to 3,029 service requests for maintenance. Reports of illegal dumping was the sin gle highest request and made up 39% of the total maintenance requests received. The City has been making a reasonable effort to gradually acquire its own vehicles and equipment since its incorporation to ensure efficient delivery of services.
On June 15, 2023, the City Council approved the Fiscal Year 2023/24 City budget, which included funding to purchase one backhoe loader, one replacement service truck, and another service truck with tipping capabilities (dump truck) for the Public Works Department.
ANALYSIS
Currently, the City has one front-end loader in service that is used for various projects including illegal dumping, light grading, and mud/dirt removal. A backhoe loader will significantly enhance our capabilities for maintenance of landscaping, drainage ditches, asphalt repairs and homeless encampment clean-ups.

BACKGROUND
The City of Jurupa Valley (“City”) is a member agency of the Western Riverside County Regional Conservation Authority (“RCA”), a joint powers agency comprised of the County of Riverside and the eighteen cities located in western Riverside County.
The member agencies of RCA recognized that a habitat conservation plan is necessary to provide special protections for vegetation communities and natural areas containing habitat values to prevent future endangerment of the plant and animal species impacted by new development in western Riverside County.
In order to address these issues, the member agencies formulated a pl an called the Western Riverside County Multiple Species Habitat Conservation Plan (the “MSHCP”) in which a mitigation fee would be assessed on new development and would be used to fund the implementation of the MSHCP.
RETURN TO AGENDA
Page | 2
In furtherance of the MSHCP, the City adopted Resolution No. 2021-24 approving and adopting the updated “Western Riverside County Multiple Species Habitat Conservation Plan Nexus Fee Study Update,” dated October 2020.

ANALYSIS
Chapter 3.80 of the Jurupa Valley Municipal Code, the "Western Riverside County Multiple Species Habitat Conser vation Plan Mitigation Fee Ordinance," authorizes the City Council to impose the Local Development Mitigation Fee upon new development.
Section 3.80.050.A. of the Jurupa Valley Municipal Code authorizes the City to adopt an applicable Local Development Mitigation Fee schedule by resolution.

On May 22, 2022, the City adopted Resolution No. 2022-56, amending Resolution No. 2021-24 and confirming the annual automatic increase of the MSHCP Local Development Mitigation Fee for the 2023 fiscal year.
Section 3.80.050.D of the Jurupa Valley Municipal Code provides for an Automatic Annual Fee Adjustment in accordance with the RCA’s MSHCP Implementing Agreement:
“D. Automatic annual fee adjustment. In addition to the periodic fee adjustment mentioned above, the RCA shall provide the city with an automatic annual fee adjustment for the local development mitigation fee established by this cha pter as set forth in the MSHCP Mitigation Fee Implementation Manual.”

“Section 8. In addition to the Periodic Fee Adjustment mentioned above, the RCA shall provide the City with an automatic annual fee adjustment for the Local Development Mitigation Fee established by this Resolution as set forth in the MSHCP Mitigation Fee Implementation Manual ad opted pursuant to the Local Development Mitigation Fee Ordinance.” Pursuant to Section 3.80.050 of the Jurupa Valley Municipal Code, Section 8 of Resolution No. 2021-24, RCA’s MSHCP Mitigation Fee Implementation Manual and past practice, the MSHCP Local Development Mitigation Fee adjusts annually by the change in the Consumer Price Index (CPI).

RECOMMENDATION
That the City Council authorize the City Manager to execute the Second Amendment to the Agreement with UltraSystems for the preparation of an Environmental Impact Report (EIR) for the proposed “The District at Jurupa Val ley Specific Plan ” project (formerly referred to as “District at Rubidoux” Project) in an amount not to exceed $ 114,107 to be funded entirely by the applicant by an advance deposit sufficient to cover the EIR and the administrative costs.
BACKGROUND
On November 18, 2021, the City Council approved an agreement between the City and UltraSystems for consultant services for the preparation of an Environmental Impact Report for the proposed District at Jurupa Valley Specific Plan, a project proposed by EM Ranch Owner, LLC . The original Agreement amount for the scope of services was $188,770. On March 2, 2023, the City Council approved the Fir st Amendment to the agreement in an amount not to exceed $52,170.
The proposed Specific Plan project would replace the Emerald Meadows Ranch Specific Plan. The project site is approximately 244 acres of predominately vacant land located in the eastern portion of the City, south of SR -60, north of 34th Street, and between Rubidoux Boulevard and the Santa Ana River.
The proposed Specific Plan includes the following proposed uses: up to 1,192 residential units; 3 million square feet of commercial and industrial land uses (including warehouse distribution center and logistic uses); a hotel with conference and hospitality area; and 8 acres of parks and open space.
RETURN TO AGENDA
Page | 2
The size of the project , the many complexities , changes to technical studies , and a request by the applicant for an accelerated processing schedule has resulted in the request for additional resources and time allocated by UltraSystems for the preparation of the project Draft Environmental Impact Report (D EIR). Consequently, UltraSystems submitted a request for additional funds to complete the DEIR. See Attachment 1 for the proposed Second Amendment to the Agreement.
UltraSystems justification for the additional expenditures are related to Milestone No. 2.0 – Project Management /Coordination/Meetings & Hearings and Milestone No. 5.0 – Preparation of Draft Environmental Impact Report. The following specifically outlines the additional expenditures:
Participation in weekly conference calls with the City and the applicant’s project team. Agenda and weekly tracking matrices and materials have been provided.
