5. Detailed Work Plan and Schedule
Project Understanding
For the past 15 years, the Inland Empire has been
experiencing explosive growth in industrial warehousing due to growing demand for logistics. In Southern California there is a projected doubling of international trade through the Ports of Long Beach and Los Angeles by 2040,
and projected population growth of 18 million people in the SCAG region. From an economic perspective (jobs
and tax revenue), this is a good thing. However, these
facilities generate significant truck traffic, which creates both roadway maintenance issues and health and safety
concerns for nearby residents. As part of this update,
we will work closely with City staff to revisit roadway classifications, evaluate existing truck prohibitions, and recommend truck routes that minimize maintenance costs
and impacts on residents and sensitive receptors, such
as schools, neighborhoods, and parks. This is a challenge facing many communities we have worked with in the Inland Empire, High Desert, Northern California (Tracy, Lathrop, and Stockton), and across the country in places like Portland OR, Vancouver WA, and Salt Lake City UT. Truck access is critical and must be carefully planned to avoid conflicts with bicyclists, pedestrians, and autos. Truck parking is another concern frequently raised by residents. Provisions for truck parking are needed for Jurupa Valley residents that own and operate their own trucks and need overnight parking, and for day- and over-the-road drivers (aka, shorthaul and longhaul) that need safe places to stage and take federally mandated breaks.
The City also faces a new State mandate that requires
jurisdictions to designate truck routes in general plan circulation elements, and for the City of Jurupa Valley and other cities and counties named as being in the “Warehouse Concentration Region”, the update must happen by January 1, 2026. Our team understands the urgency of this
effort and comes equipped with current knowledge
about the community and our extensive knowledge
on AB 98 and trucking regulations. Our approach
entails a comprehensive community outreach strategy for listening to and learning about the concerns of residents and businesses. Collaboratively, we look forward to
investigating opportunities for improving quality of life, safety, accessibility, sustainability, and economic vitality.
Project Approach
The multi-disciplinary team that we have assembled
combines our local knowledge of the City of Jurupa Valley (land uses, zoning, demographics, and travel patterns) with leading experts in the goods movement industry who are
up to speed with the most recent State and federal laws and regulations governing industrial development and truck operations. Our local knowledge and freight expertise in the area will allow us to update the Mobility Element to meet the AB 98 deadline within seven (7) months following the notice to proceed.
Our approach is based on answering the following primary questions – which we have already begun to do based on
our knowledge of the City, logistics activities and trends in California, and discussions with the City:
•
Wh
ich corridors currently carry the highest volumes of
trucks? Will these corridors continue to see the most
growth in truck traffic? Which other corridors will be
impacted in the future?
•
Ho
w can the City accommodate access to trucks while
minimizing community impacts, such as congestion,
noise, excessive speeds and safety risks, and pavement
damage?
•
Ho
w will the City incorporate design standards required
by AB 98 (e.g., gate setbacks, auxiliary power for trucks at loading docks, etc.)?
•
Wh
at is the current pavement condition of the corridors
carrying the highest truck volumes? Do they need to be
upgraded to handle future increases in truck traffic?
Based on our deep understanding of freight activities and supply chains and our experience working in the Inland
Empire, and in the City of Jurupa Valley, the following key factors have resulted in increased truck traffic:
•
Ec
onomic growth and development in the City and
Riverside and San Bernardino Counties is occurring in
the form of warehousing, distribution centers, intermodal rail/truck, parcel hub warehouse and fulfillment centers resulting in truck traffic increases
•
Co
llisions and congestion on I-15 and SR-60 resulting in
traffic exiting the freeways and using alternative routes in the City, such as Mission Boulevard and Wineville Road
We understand current applications for industrial
development projects, as well as proposed industrial
development in neighboring cities, such as Fontana and
unincorporated San Bernardino County, raise further
questions about inter-regional truck trips and provisions for designated truck routes. Coordination with adjacent jurisdictions is also needed to ensure truck routes have logical connections and termini.
Our approach will map current and anticipated truck
generators and estimate truck activity on City streets and at 6 Regular City Council Meeting - June 5, 2025
7 freeway interchanges to understand the City’s truck access and routing needs. Next, we will add sensitive receptors to the map. This will provide a basis for identifying a network of truck routes. Once potential routes have been identified, we will work with Public Works staff to document the pavement conditions of the proposed truck routes and determine if hardening of the facilities is needed to accommodate future truck volumes. We will follow these steps to identify the proposed truck routes:
1. Gather existing truck-related policies in the
California Vehicle Code and other State
regulations, Jurupa Valley General Plan, and the
Jurupa Valley Municipal Code
2 . Develop a systematic procedure to identify truck
routes and truck prohibitions
3. Address the potential revenue generation needed
from new industrial development to offset roadway
ma
intenance
4. Identify intersection geometry of potential truck
routes
5. Develop a set of improvements complete with cost
estimates
6 . Develop performance measures and a funding plan
for prioritizing implementation
Phase 1 - Project Administration/
Coordination
Objective
Project administration and coordination are crucial for effectively managing the schedule to ensure that the City can meet the AB 98 deadline for designating truck routes in its Mobility Element.
Approach
Our approach to project management is to establish a
communication protocol at the onset of the project, set expectations for deliverables and City reviews, and maintain constant and consistent communication with the City’s
Project Manager.
Scope
1. 1 Project Kick-Off Meeting
Fehr & Peers proposes that the project Kick-Off meeting with the City occur within two weeks of Notice to Proceed (NTP). All task leads will participate. This meeting will set expectations for developing a robust Freight Analysis and amending the City’s General Plan to incorporate designated truck routes within the AB 98 deadline of January 1, 2026.
Specifically, the team will discuss the following key elements at the Kick-Off meeting:
•
Sch
edule: regular meetings, deliverables, outreach, and
public hearing dates to target
• Da
ta needs and data collection
• St
akeholder engagement: overall strategy, outreach plan
components, types of events/outreach, mechanisms for
notifying the public, etc.
• Com
munication protocols – both internal and external
This kick-off meeting will be followed by a virtual, partner agency kick-off meeting with WRCOG, RCTC, Caltrans
District 8, and SCAG shortly thereafter.
1.2: Regular Project Meetings
During the Project Kick-Off Meeting, a regular day/time will be identified for continual project team meetings. Meetings will be held monthly with the team, and as specific issues arise, additional meetings will be scheduled. These regular meetings will be used to discuss data needs and sources, findings, options and solutions, and potential issues/
concerns.
1.3: Monthly Reporting and Invoicing
Regular monthly progress reports and invoices will be
prepared and submitted to the City. The progress reports will summarize tasks in progress and/or completed,
deliverables, and overall project status and next steps.
Deliverables

Phase 2 – Existing Conditions Report
Objective
The Existing Conditions report will establish the baseline for understanding truck activity and freight access needs, as well as regional goods movement activities that impact the City today, and supply chain trends that may impact the City in the future.
Regular City Council Meeting - June 5, 2025
8 Approach
For the existing conditions report, the Fehr & Peers Team will build upon existing land use and transportation planning experience that we have with the City, including our work on the Pedley Town Center Plan and the Jurupa Valley
Corridors Plan, as well as AB 98 implementation work
that we are currently leading for SBCTA and WRCOG,
and a truck parking study that we are working on with
Caltrans District 8. The existing conditions report will cover relevant federal, State, and local regulations and legislation associated with goods movement, and provide a detailed
analysis of existing conditions associated with truck-
generating uses in the City. This effort will document truck route prohibitions in the City, truck-generating land uses, truck travel patterns, pavement conditions on truck-traveled corridors, truck-involved collisions, and unauthorized truck parking activity. This will also include baseline “urban/rural context mapping” to identify segments of major streets
within which pedestrian, bicycle and equestrian activities are prioritized by the General Plan and Draft Citywide Corridors Plan, as it relates to future truck routing decisions.
Scope
2.1 Existing Regulations and Truck Restrictions &
Regulatory and Policy Gap Analysis
The Fehr & Peers Team brings together national experts in goods movement and planners and engineers with a long
history of supporting the City’s planning and design efforts.
These areas of expertise will work together to develop
a comprehensive review of policies and regulations, an
analysis of the differences between policies and regulations that govern truck travel over streets and highways versus policies and regulations that govern truck access to
customer locations, and an all-encompassing policy and
regulatory gap analysis to guide updates to the City’s
General Plan Mobility Element and Municipal Code.
As a first step, we will develop a comprehensive list of terms and definitions derived from existing laws and regulations that govern the movement of goods and freight facilities.
Next, a comprehensive list of statewide, regional, and local policies, regulations, and legislation will be documented and summarized. For example, vehicle classifications defined by the Federal Highway Administration (e.g., GVW Classes 1-8) and types that are identified in the California Vehicle Codes are different, and Caltrans regulates California
Legal Trucks differently than federally legal STAA (Surface Transportation Act) trucks. The nuances are critical for understanding access needs to industrial warehouses and intermodal yards, as well as for complying with federal and state regulations.

specific regulations
The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) hours of service (HOS) regulations govern truck driver time on duty, time driving, and mandated breaks. Drivers must take breaks on time (e.g., a 30-minute break after 8 hours on duty) and park their truck or risk substantial fines. This development has created situations where drivers cannot legally move their trucks for 30 minutes and thereby park on local streets.
Many trucks are also delivering freight at a scheduled time, and given their time constraints they often stage on the street unless a nearby travel plaza, truck stop, or other truck parking area is available. In the summertime, they run their engines to keep their cab cool creating both emissions and noise impacts. As such, our team will look at policies and regulations from dual perspectives:
•
Fr
om the City’s perspective, identifying objectives,
options, and limitations.
• Fr
om the trucking industry perspective, identifying
mandates, limitations, and obligations.
In addition to policies and regulations on trucking operations, there are also several State and local regulations associated with the development and operations of freight-generating uses, such as the Indirect Source Rule 2305 and the latest State legislation pursuant to Assembly Bill 98 (AB 98).
For this task, we will prepare a comprehensive review and detailed summary of regulations associated with truck
routing, access, and industrial development standards. This information will be used to develop recommended municipal code and general plan updates, including the designation of truck routes.
Regular City Council Meeting - June 5, 2025
9 The schedule for this study is being driven by new
regulations on cities regarding truck routes and logistics uses associated with AB 98. The new legislation names
the Counties of Riverside and San Bernardino and several cities within the two counties, including Jurupa Valley, as “Warehouse Concentration Region” jurisdictions. The
“Warehouse Concentration Region” jurisdictions must meet more stringent siting and building design standards, and they are also subject to a much shorter timeline for complying – January 1, 2026 instead of January 1, 2028. The regulations associated with this law require cities to:
1. Designate truck routes pursuant to Government Code
Section 65302.02, including:
a.
Pr
ovide opportunities for community
involvement in the designation of the truck
routes and make a diligent effort to achieve
public participation of all economic segments of
the community
b.
Am
end the circulation element of the general
plan to incorporate the designated truck routes
c. Pr
epare a GIS layer of the truck routes
d. Ins
tall “conspicuous” truck route signage
2. Update the Municipal Code pursuant to Government
Code Section 65098 (Chapter 2.8 Warehouse Design and
Build Standards) as follows:
a.
Inc
orporate new definitions, such as “21st
Century Warehouse”, “Expansion of existing
logistics use”, “Sensitive Receptor”, etc. which
may be defined differently in other regulations
b.
Mo dify siting standards for “logistics uses”, such
as buffers, truck access locations, and minimum
setbacks
c.
Mo
dify building standards for “logistics uses”,
such as provisions for conduits at loading
“bays”, high-efficiency climate control, and
electric vehicle charging stations
Some of these requirements are inconsistent with other
pieces of legislation, such as South Coast Air Quality
Management District’s Indirect Source Rule, which applies to buildings that are more than 100,000 square feet. For this effort, we will provide a summary of relevant regulations and legislation and recommend changes to the City’s municipal code to ensure that the City complies with AB 98 and all other regulations associated with “logistics uses” and truck routing. We will prepare a thorough review of the City’s General Plan policies, identify any gaps in existing policies pursuant to the regulations/legislation, and prepare policy recommendations to fill the gaps.
2.2 Key Freight Generators and Truck Travel
Patterns
Working with PlaceWorks and Sargent Town Planning, we
will investigate existing and future truck generating land uses, including “logistics uses” as defined by AB 98. This information is critical for understanding truck activity in the City, such as truck origins and destinations, travel patterns, speeds, and facility access needs.

Prohibitions Map
Once we have identified the existing freight generators, we propose using a combination of roadway and intersection classification counts and big data to estimate existing truck travel patterns, such as volumes, speeds, and origins and destinations. Utilizing the City’s GIS General Plan Land Use, Zoning, and Trucks Not Allowed layers coupled with truck origins/destinations provided by Geotab data (available for free from SCAG through June 30, 2025), we will identify a number of locations throughout the City to collect vehicle classification counts. Given the school year ends on May 22nd, the counts will be scheduled immediately upon
receiving Notice to Proceed and collected no later than May 15, 2025. The traffic count data will aid with calibrating the Geotab data, which typically represents 15-20 percent of the truck volumes moving in, out, and through the City. Upon an initial review of the City’s industrial and commercial uses that typically generate truck traffic, we tentatively proposed collecting traffic classification counts at the following locations:

11 2.3 Truck-Involved Crashes and Safety Concerns
Safety considerations will play a key role in the designation and design of truck routes. For this effort, Fehr & Peers will evaluate truck-involved collisions over a five-year period using Transportation Injury Mapping Network (TIMS) and
information provided by the City and the Riverside County Sheriff’s Office and Fire Department. This information will a
lso feed into the development of the City’s High-Injury Network (HIN), a new requirement pursuant to Senate Bill 932. The data coupled with insights provided from first responders, Jurupa Valley Unified School District, and other key stakeholders will be documented.
2.4 Design Considerations and Pavement
Conditions
For this task, Fehr & Peers will use AutoTURN to review truck turning movements at intersections that are currently being used by medium- and heavy-duty trucks. AutoTURN
provides the “swept path” of trucks to determine if the turning radii is suffi
cient to safely accommodate left and
right turns without overtaking an oncoming travel lane, sidewalk, or utilities. In some cases, trucks may be avoiding a better route due to design deficiencies. For this analysis, we anticipate the analysis of up to 20 intersections. This analysis will inform the next step – identification of improvements (Phase 4). Mark Thomas will lead the design component of this effort.
For the pavement evaluation, Mark Thomas will evaluate the condition of existing pavement along roadways used by
trucks and assess pavement performance and identify
deficiencies at a high level. Specifically, this phase will document the current conditions of the pavement, identify roadway stress by type and severity, and develop a
pavement condition index for each segment. This will be accomplished through field investigations, a careful review of as-builts and pavement and maintenance history, and
collection of environmental conditions affecting pavement p
erformance.
Mark Thomas will secure available roadway as-builts
from the City and County of Riverside to provide an initial assessment of the pavement thicknesses for the corridors to be included as part of the potential truck routes within the project limits. Additionally, they will meet with City staff on recent permit information that involved trench repair within these corridors, and available geotechnical data from other City or private development projects as well. Lastly, where bridges exist within these potential truck route corridors, Mark Thomas will secure available recent Caltrans and/or County bridge inspection reports to document sufficiency ratings and recommended repairs. This information will be compiled with the roadway sections extracted in tabular format as the Preliminary Pavement Conditions Assessment.
Following these efforts, Mark Thomas will field verify
pavement conditions to note the following:
• Are
as where pavement conditions are in good condition
and rehabilitation (i.e. grind/overlay) is feasible
• Are
as where pavement conditions are severely distressed,
and rehabilitation is not possible
This information will be compiled into a GIS level pavement distress map with photographic log of pavement conditions and added to the Final Pavement Conditions Assessment.
Where widening and other modifications to existing
curb lines (i.e. turn pockets, widened lanes, larger curb returns, etc) are identified, Mark Thomas will provide
an Infrastructure Impact Assessment Memorandum
documenting utility relocations / modifications, right of way acquisition needs if any, and drainage considerations to be used as the basis for estimating the costs to complete these improvements.

Phase 3 - Community Engagement
Objective
The objective of this task is to engage both residents and industry, as well as other agencies, such as Caltrans and adjacent jurisdictions.
The residents of Jurupa Valley have been battling impacts from warehousing development for more than a decade
– frequently making it into the Los Angeles Times over
development battles with the City of Fontana. Supported by community-based organizations, such as Earth Justice, the Sierra Club, and the University of Redlands, and partner agencies, such as Jurupa Valley Unified School District and Riverside County Sheriff’s Office and Fire Department, the negative impacts generated by warehouse development
that exists both within and adjacent to Jurupa Valley
have been documented. The economic benefits of these
facilities, such as jobs, infrastructure improvements, and Regular City Council Meeting - June 5, 2025
12 air quality impacts, as well as roadway wear-and-tear.
The public engagement process will focus on solutions
developed through brainstorming exercises that seek to fully understand the problems rather than simply identify them.
Fehr & Peers will leverage our relationships with trade associations, industrial developers, trucking companies, truck drivers, freight facility operators, and shippers to engage them in the planning process through easy-to-
access surveys, one-on-one interviews, and through visits to their facilities.
Our approach for engaging WRCOG and Caltrans will
build upon current efforts that align with this project. We are currently working with WRCOG and SBCTA on AB 98
efforts. WRCOG and SBCTA would like to be involved in
a greater effort to coordinate truck routes across city and county lines. We will work with both WRCOG and SBCTA
to develop a strategy for collaborating with adjacent
jurisdictions on truck routing and truck parking solutions. In addition, we recommend inviting Caltrans staff. For Caltrans District 8, we are currently working on a Truck Parking Study and have also had recent discussions with them about truck routing requirements. Caltrans is very interested in working with local jurisdictions to help solve the truck parking problem, and we feel that Caltrans should also be the keeper of the AB 98-required GIS truck route layers.
Engagement will be supported by all members of our team.
Each team member maintains deep ties to the community,
partner agencies, and industry in Jurupa Valley and the Inland Empire, and we understand the best outreach
approach for obtaining quality responses from each of these stakeholder groups.
Approach
The Project Team has vast experience conducting
engagement with various stakeholder groups. We will use the following approach for conducting engagement:
•
Es
tablish a Stakeholder Advisory Committee (SAC)
• De
velop outreach plan
• De
velop Survey Questionnaire (e.g., SocialPinpoint,
Community Voice)
• Con
duct outreach with various stakeholder groups
• Su
mmarize and share findings
• Ob
tain feedback on potential strategies and solutions
Scope
3.1: Develop Outreach Plan
The Fehr & Peers Team will develop an Outreach Plan that provides: 1) a list of stakeholders complete with affiliation and contact information, 2) schedule for engaging various stakeholder types, 3) strategy for disseminating information, 4) social media protocol, and City website and Facebook page development, and 5) survey questions and survey
instruments.
We will initiate the development of a stakeholder list based on the Team’s existing relationships with partner agencies, adjacent jurisdictions, industry, and community groups. We will review and revise the list in collaboration with City staff.
The list will be further refined for targeted outreach, such as identifying:
•
Gr
oups to engage through community workshops
• Pa
rtner agencies and adjacent jurisdictions to meet with
collectively
• Indu
stry representatives to interview one-on-one
Approach Pros/Cons
Online Survey Pros: Easy to implement, less intrusive with the daily schedule, good if followed up by video, phone, or on-site interviews.
Cons: Difficult to obtain details or ask follow up questions, low response rates Focus group video
conferencing
Pros: Allows broader/diverse national participation with much lower travel and other associated costs, detailed discussions, and brainstorming.
Cons: Scheduling and availability.
Phone interviews Pros: Interactive, quality information, easy to follow up with responses.
Cons: Resource intensive, scheduling issues.
On-site interviews Pros: Similar to phone interviews but with the advantage of being face to face.
Cons: Resource intensive, scheduling issues.
Potential Approaches for Identifying Issues, Concerns, and Best Practices Regular City Council Meeting - June 5, 2025
13 The type of outreach is important, and one size does not fit all. As described in the table, there are pros and cons associated with each outreach approach.
Fehr & Peers proposes a hybrid outreach approach
(i.e., online survey, focused in person and virtual group workshops, on-site meetings, and one-on-one interviews).
This approach ensures broader and more diverse
participation resulting in a higher quality outcome. We propose the development of a short list of questions that stakeholders can easily respond to from a smart phone,
tablet, or personal computer. The questions will be
accompanied by a mapping tool (e.g., SocialPinpoint) that allows participants to drop pins on a map and add notes about the problem they are experiencing or witnessing at that location, such as trucks blocking travel lanes, poor pavement conditions, etc. The online survey will be posted on the Project website (to be developed in coordination with the City), advertised through notices posted at public facilities, and disseminated directly to stakeholders using the email database of stakeholders developed as part of the stakeholder list.
The project team will obtain a minimum of 50 complete
survey responses from community members, freight facility operators, trucking operators, and industrial warehouse developers. In addition, we will conduct 10 in-depth
interviews or industry-focused meetings, up to four (4) stakeholder workshops, and up to four (4) in-person
meetings with agency partners.
3.2: Conduct Outreach and Summarize Findings
After selecting the outreach approaches, the next step
towards conducting outreach is to develop an interview
or survey questionnaire. We will use a targeted approach that allows the messaging and questions to adapt based
on the kind/type of stakeholder. This is critical since we are reaching out to diverse stakeholders with different perspectives issues, such as residents, workers, facility operators, and truck drivers.
The questionnaire will capture:
•
Th
e type of respondent (e.g., resident, partner agency
staff, adjacent jurisdiction staff, community based
organization, business owner/operator, industrial
developer, truck driver, etc.)
•
Th
e type and location(s) of concern(s)
• Th
e ideas for solving truck access, parking, safety, or other freight-related concerns
After closing the survey and completing the industry
interviews, first two community workshops, and first
meeting with partner agencies and adjacent jurisdictions, we will compile the responses, identify common themes,
and publish the findings. Next, we propose a second round of outreach following the completion of Phases 2, 4 and 6 to share findings, obtain feedback and input on potential solutions, and discuss project prioritization. The final round of engagement is proposed through a Planning Commission or City Council workshop.

Phase 4 – Draft and Final
Freight Analysis
Objective
The objective of the Freight Analysis is to develop a data- driven process for designating truck routes.
Approach
The approach will build on findings from Phase 2 whereby truck access needs, avoidance of sensitive receptors,
roadway design features, safety concerns, and other factors will be used to evaluate the compatibility of trucks on different roadways.
Scope
4.1: Truck Route Designation Process & Selection
Criteria
The truck route designation process will build upon data collected in Phase 2 and input provided through the first round of stakeholder outreach. The truck route designation process will consider access requirements to freight-
generators within and adjacent to the City, truck travel patterns, the influence logistics uses and operations in the region have on freight activity in the City, and State and federal laws that influence local truck routing decisions, truck parking activity, and warehousing development and operations.
The truck route selection criteria will be based on factors provided in Phase 2 and Phase 6, such as existing and
projected truck volumes, site access, roadway design
Regular City Council Meeting - June 5, 2025
14 deficiencies, land use compatibility, conflicts with City plans, continuity/connectivity to truck routes in adjacent jurisdictions, etc.
The preferred truck routes will be further analyzed to
determine if improvements to pavement, intersections, and/ or signal operations will be needed to safely and efficiently accommodate truck traffic under both existing and future conditions. The City’s prior and current efforts to address safety will serve as an input into the selection of truck routes.
This information will also inform improvements that will be needed on corridors that serve potentially conflicting modes, such as truck routes and bike routes. The recommended
truck routes will be mapped in GIS, incorporated into the Mobility Element, and shared with Caltrans.
4.2: Truck Route Capital Improvement
Recommendations
Upon issuance of the NTP , Mark Thomas will secure
available Geographic Information System (GIS) parcel and roadway linework from the County of San Bernardino and
convert to an AutoCAD based drawing to use as the basis for all existing right-of-way and property lines. Additionally, Mark Thomas will secure available research and as-builts pertinent to the proposed truck routes. The as-builts will be the basis for roadway design improvements, as well as the pavement evaluation that will be conducted in Phase 2.
Fehr & Peers will prepare AutoTURN templates for proposed truck route intersections and develop conceptual designs to improve intersections on proposed truck routes for up to ten (10) locations. The conceptual designs will consider curb extensions, relocation of utilities, signal equipment and other street furniture, and striping and signal modifications, including the potential for truck-priority signals.
Assumptions:
Mapping provided in the Constraints and Programmed
Project Assessment will be limited to the following:
•
Exi
sting right-of-way Mapping based on County available
GIS in AutoCAD Format
• Exi
sting topographic conditions will be based upon
Google earth imagery, no mapping will occur
• Preliminary Mapping of programmed / planned projects
will be supplied only if made available by implementing agencies or their respective design staff
Fehr & Peers will prepare conceptual plans for up to 10 intersection locations . These concepts will consider
potential alterations, such as modifications to curb returns, relocation of utilities and signage, restriping, intersection widening, etc. pursuant to findings in Phases 2 and 7 .
In addition, pavement conditions and enhancements on
proposed truck routes will be evaluated. For this analysis, Fehr & Peers will use the 1993 AASHTO Guide for Design of Pavement Structures as the basis for assessing pavement improvements needed to support heavy-duty truck traffic on the City’s designated truck route network. Pavement
assessment will be measured in terms of “ESALs”, or
equivalent single axle loads of 18,000 pounds. The following data will be collected or estimated to assess pavement
requirements for each segment of the City’s truck route network: 1) pavement type, 2) estimated pavement layer
thicknesses, 3) pavement condition, 4) truck traffic, 5) truck weight, and 6) axle load distribution.
Next, we will estimate existing and future truck volumes, define the typical configurations of trucks operating in the City, and estimate average axle load. The axle load estimate will be based on vehicle classification, as well as instances and frequency of over-size/over-weight permits issued for operations on the City’s roadways. Fehr & Peers will coordinate with Caltrans and the City to obtain this information. The truck route pavement design standards for each segment will be developed to accommodate traffic for the next 20 years.
Planning level cost estimates for recommended
infrastructure improvements will be developed by Mark
Thomas. Improvements will be prioritized based on factors such as truck volumes and frequency of overweight trucks.
Additionally, planning level costs for right-of-way, utilities, and drainage improvements will be based upon the
Infrastructure Impact Assessment Memorandum.

Phase 5 – Truck Route
Implementation Strategy
Objective
The objective of Phase 5 is to implement identified truck route improvements expeditiously by being prepared for
funding opportunities.
Regular City Council Meeting - June 5, 2025
15 Approach
Fehr & Peers recommends utilizing the
prioritizationapproach developed in Phase 4 to identify the top 10 priority truck route improvement projects.
Notifications for the availability of funding sources that align with each of the top 10 projects should be regularly monitored.
Scope
5.1: Cost Estimates
The conceptual designs prepared in Phase 4 will be
provided to Mark Thomas for the development of cost
estimates. The cost estimates will be incorporated into project data sheets for each improvement to support future funding pursuits.
5.2: Prioritization of Improvements & Phasing Plan
As part of Phase 4, a prioritized list of recommended
improvements will be identified and incorporated into the Freight Analysis. Improvements will be prioritized based on key performance indicators, such as high injury rates, congestion, and failing pavement, as well as community
priorities, such as walkability and quality of life. However, funding availability also plays a critical role. A lower ranked project may meet certain grant funding requirements, which could bump it up in priority if funding is successfully secured.
The goal of project prioritization is ultimately implementation, which is likely to occur more quickly if flexibility is retained.
Three corridors in the City (Bellegrave Boulevard, Riverside Avenue, and Etiwanda Avenue) are designated as Critical Urban Freight Corridors (CUFC) in the California Freight Mobility Plan. This designation allows improvements on
these corridors to compete for federal funding opportunities available through the USDOT discretionary funding
opportunities provided by the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law. Once improvements are completed, the State can
move the CUFC designation to another corridor in need of improvements. The prioritization list will allow the City to initiate early conversations with Caltrans about moving the designation to other key corridors in the City.
The phasing plan will be based on project priorities
established in Phase 4, as well as the prioritization of improvements.
5.3: Funding Strategy and Grant Opportunities
Fehr & Peers will develop a structured approach to financing the identified truck route improvements that prioritizes the efficient use of resources while maximizing funding opportunities. This strategy will incorporate a mixture of local, state, federal, and private sources for funding truck route improvements.
Fehr & Peers has added Mark Thomas to the team to
support this task. Our firms routinely partner on the planning, design, and funding of large-scale goods movement
transportation projects across the State. We have a detailed understand of funding and financing programs and hands- on experience securing regional, state, and federal funds.
These projects include the City of Beaumont SR-60/Potrero Boulevard Interchange Phase II TCEP grant which was
awarded $33.5 million, the City of Eastvale Limonite Avenue Gap Closure LPP grant which was awarded $9.5 million,
and the City of Santa Ana Santa Ana Boulevard Grade
Separation BUILD and TIRCP grants which were awarded
$32 million.
5.4: Policy and Regulatory Recommendations
Phase 2 will provide the basis for policy and regulatory recommendations. Currently, Fehr & Peers is supporting
WRCOG with the development of cleanup language for AB
98, which could result in relief to the compliance deadline and more clarity on regulatory requirements. For this Phase, we will provide recommendations for policies to include in the Mobility Element. We will also provide the City with information about pending regulations or changes to existing regulations that impact trucking operations, industrial warehouse development, or the Mobility Element.

Phase 6 – Mobility Plan Update
Objective
The primary objective of the Mobility Plan Update is to incorporate designated truck routes and update it to comply with the latest State regulations.
Approach
Due to the limited changes to the Mobility Element, we
recommend an approach that targets the incorporation
of designated truck routes, policies associated with truck routes, and updates pursuant to recent general plan mobility element requirements. In addition, this Phase will include traffic modeling to support an evaluation of truck route improvements and designation of the City’s high-injury
network.
Regular City Council Meeting - June 5, 2025
16 Scope
6.1: Existing Conditions
Fehr & Peers’ initial work related to the General Plan Mobility Element Update will focus on the addition of truck routes, policies associated with freight activity, and improvements needed to provide safe access to truck-generating facilities throughout the City. A careful review of shared corridors, such as major roadways used by trucks and bicyclists and/ or pedestrians will be considered in the Freight Analysis. To the extent possible, trucks will be routed on corridors that are not fronted by homes, schools, parks, or other sensitive receptors, and safe separations between bicycle/pedestrian facilities and trucks will be integrated into roadway design standards.
As part of this effort, we will use the existing data to develop a background technical report documenting existing
conditions in the area. This will specifically identify existing roadway network classifications, existing and proposed
bicycle facilities, existing and proposed pedestrian networks, transit service, existing truck and rail facilities, and a safety review of the City (most notably high incident locations by mode – much of which will be provided as part of Phase 2).
We will also document available census information that is relevant to transportation, such as commute trip information, mode split information, and the relative locations of where people who live in Jurupa Valley work, and vise versa.
Fehr & Peers will utilize the latest version of the Riverside County Transportation Model (RIVCOM). The model will
be used to evaluate existing and future travel demand
on the City’s roadway network, identifying roadway
network deficiencies, and analyze level of service at study intersections and roadway segments. A VMT analysis is not anticipated to be required.
In addition, Fehr & Peers will spend up to two days in
the field reviewing traffic operations, collecting roadway geometric data, and collecting intersection control
information.
Fehr & Peers will work with the City to obtain traffic signal timing data at all study intersections. As needed, Fehr & Peers will coordinate with other appropriate agencies, such as Caltrans, Cities of Fontana, Rialto, Riverside, Colton, and Counties of San Bernardino and Riverside, to obtain relevant traffic signal timing information, as well as planning information about land use or zoning changes that would allow for more industrial development near the City’s
boundary.
Fehr & Peers will develop the following forecasts for up to 20 study intersections and 15 roadway segments:
•
Ex
isting (2025) – Based on traffic counts collected in
Phase 2
• Fu
ture Year (2050) – Based on RIVCOM with appropriate
land use modifications associated with both recently
approved and reasonably foreseeable land use/zone
changes
Fehr & Peers will complete an LOS assessment applying
the Highway Capacity Manual 7th Edition methodologies.
Intersection analysis will be performed using the Synchro analysis software and signal timing data provided by the local agencies and/or Caltrans.
This scope includes an evaluation of potential physical changes to the intersection geometries along the proposed truck routes to improve safety, access, and circulation. Fehr & Peers will identify infrastructure capacity improvements that would be needed to achieve an acceptable LOS. Fehr & Peers will work with the project team to compare proposed capacity improvements against multi-modal goals/policies of the General Plan and develop final recommendations
for infrastructure improvements. These improvements will be depicted, costed out, and incorporated into the project prioritization process (Phase 5).
6.2: Additional General Plan Requirements Since
2017
All new General Plan updates are required to incorporate SB 932. As stated in the legislation, “Upon any substantive revision of the circulation element on or after January 1, 2025, local governments are required to incorporate the principles of the Federal Highway Administration’s Safe System Approach.” Specifically, this requires the City to develop and incorporate bicycle, pedestrian, and traffic calming plans into the Mobility Element and address safety concerns on corridors with high pedestrian and bicycle
activity by identifying improvements.
The Mobility Element policies will be updated to reflect the City’s commitment to implement the improvements within
25 years pursuant to the City’s LRSP and SSARP that were completed in 2022.
6.3: Updated Mobility Element Policies
Fehr & Peers will develop the initial policies and present these policies to City staff for review. These policies will consider the latest legislative changes to General Plan Mobility Element requirements that have occurred since the City’s Mobility Element was last updated in 2017 , such as AB 98 and SB 932.
Phase 7 – CEQA Compliance
Objective
The update to the City’s General Plan Mobility Element to incorporate truck routes is a discretionary approval with potential environmental impacts, and therefore, is subject to CEQA. It is anticipated that the roadways selected for truck routes will coincide with roadways that currently carry Regular City Council Meeting - June 5, 2025
17 most of the City’s truck traffic. Additionally, since the Mobility E
lement will not include any land use changes, associated truck volumes are not anticipated to be substantially
different than projected for buildout of the 2017 General Plan. For this Phase, therefore, we concur with the City’s determination that the Mobility Element Update is likely eligible for to be processed with an EIR Addendum pursuant to CEQA Guidelines §15164.
App
roach
Mark Teague and JoAnn Hadfield have a long history of
w
orking with the City. They will work together to ensure that current efforts underway will feed into the development of truck routes citywide. The Fehr & Peers team proposes the preparation of an Addendum to the General Plan EIR (SCH# 2008091077) that incorporates by reference information
and analyses from the Etiwanda Avenue /Country Village
Road Truck Restriction Ordinance EIR (2019, SCH #
2018021020). PlaceWorks prepared the Etiwanda Avenue/
Country Village EIR, which includes a detailed review of environmental impacts to the surrounding environmental
justice communities, including Mira Loma. The Certified EIR quantified air quality, greenhouse gases, health risk and noise impacts related to restricting truck traffic on Etiwanda Avenue and Country Village Road. Based on
field investigations, this segment of Etiwanda Avenue has signage prohibiting trucks over 8 tons, but the signage is not being enforced. As previously stated, this segment is also a designated Critical Urban Freight Corridor.
The proposed project is anticipated to designate truck
routes on roadways that trucks are permitted to operate on currently. However, it is anticipated that the City’s Prohibited Truck Routes will need to be revisited pursuant to efforts that occurred following the adoption of the 2017 General Plan EIR (SCH# 2008091077).
Based on our understanding, the potential Mobility Element amendment is not anticipated to result in any new significant environmental impacts; however, if truck volumes are
shifted to corridors that currently experience lower truck volumes, emissions and noise modeling may be required
to demonstrate that the shifts result in less than significant impacts. A General Plan EIR Addendum is assumed to be
the most legally defensible, and time/cost efficient process for CEQA compliance given the Assembly Bill 98
compliance date of January 1, 2026. Provided that an
Addendum for this project is supported with substantial evidence, the Addendum would maintain the same
protection as the General Plan EIR if challenged (e.g., is more difficult to legally challenge than a Mitigated Negative Declaration).
Scope
7 .1: Draft Addendum
The Draft Addendum will follow the CEQA Guidelines
Appendix G checklist questions/topics. It will include a Project Description (Mobility Element Update) and clearly define the baseline conditions used for the analyses.
Baseline conditions for an Addendum are defined as the
conditions upon project implementation of the original
project (
e.g., buildout of the City’s General Plan). The focus
of the Addendum analysis will be to determine the potential increase in impacts, particularly to sensitive receptors, that could result in implementation of the proposed, designated truck routes. The potential impact would be the ‘net’
increase in comparison to the baseline, buildout conditions of
the General Plan .
As the objective of the Mobility Element update and AB 98, including designated truck routes, is to reduce community impacts, our scope assumes that designated truck routes would minimize/reduce truck traffic proximate to sensitive resources for most routes. Our evaluation will be based on the truck volumes to be provided by Fehr & Peers.
It is anticipated that the designation of truck routes will not create increases in community impacts, but rather,
will result in reductions in noise, safety, and emissions impacts to sensitive receptors. Air quality, greenhouse gas emissions and noise modeling, therefore, are not expected to be required, but in the event existing truck volumes are significantly shifted by truck route designations, additional air and noise modeling may be required to measure the
changes. If the modeling results in significant impacts, a mitigated negative declaration or amendment to the EIR
may be required, which would more than likely result in the City failing to meet the AB 98 deadline of January 1, 2026, for adding truck routes to the General Plan. Fehr & Peers is actively working with WROCOG, SBCTA, and the California League of Cities on AB 98 clean up language that would
incorporate a “safe harbor” provision to exempt cities that are in the process of complying from being assessed
noncompliance fines.
The Draft Addendum will be provided to the City for review and comment.
7 .2: Final Addendum
PlaceWorks will revise the Addendum to respond to City
review comments. Our cost estimate assumes one round of revisions in response to one consolidated set of comments provided by the City.
7.3: Project Coordination and SB 18 Consultation
Project Coordination and Meeting/Hearing Attendance
Our cost estimate assumes that our environmental team
project manager (
JoAnn Hadfield) will participate in
Regular City Council Meeting - June 5, 2025
18 coordination meetings as required with the team (cost estimate assumes up to six (6) meetings) supported by Mark Teague for streamlined coordination with other ongoing
efforts. Nicole Vermillion and Chris Shields (representing AQ/GHG and Noise, respectively) will participate in up to two (2) meetings each. Our project manager will attend up to two (2) public hearings.
The project management budget assumes our project
coordination, environmental team management and contract management for a period involvement in this project for up to 7 months.
SB-18 Tribal Consultation
While an Addendum does not trigger the AB-52
requirements for Tribal consultation, all General Plan
Amendment must comply with SB-18. PlaceWorks will
complete the Native American Heritage Commission
(NAHC) on-line form requesting a tribal contact list. Using the addresses on the list from NAHC, PlaceWorks will draft letters (on City letterhead) to each of the tribes on the NAHC list inquiring whether they want consultation. Following the consultation meeting (or more typically a conference call), PlaceWorks will provide the written outcome of the process and a record for the project. Completion of the SB 18
process is needed prior to acting on the project.

Phase 8 – City Council
Review & Approval
Objective
The City Council hearing will serve two purposes: 1) an opportunity for the community to learn about the truck
routing evaluation and selection process, ask questions, and provide feedback and input, and 2) to comply with State requirements for amending the City’s General Plan.
Approach
As early as the kick-off meeting, Fehr & Peers will work with the City’s project manager to identify potential dates for City Council review and approval of the Truck Routes and General Plan Mobility Element Update. The project schedule of deliverables will align with the City Council hearing.
Scope
As mentioned in the Phase 3 scope, preliminary truck
route findings and recommendations will be presented to the public at a Planning Commission, City Council, or joint Safety Commission/Planning Commission/City Council
workshop prior to being placed on hearing agendas. This workshop will provide the public and the City’s appointed and elected representatives with an opportunity to ask
questions and provide feedback, and also for Safety and/ or Planning Commissioners and City Councilmembers to
recommend or direct changes to the proposed truck routes.
The Fehr & Peers team will develop presentations and
assist with drafting staff reports for the workshop and up to three meetings/hearings (e.g., Safety Commission, Planning Commission, and City Council) as determined by the City.
The meeting agendas and presentations will be posted to the Project Website and Facebook page.

City of Beaumont Truck Routing Study
April 2024 – September 2024 | Project Complete
Client: City of Beaumont
Client Contact: Robert Vestal, Director of Public Works, City of Beaumont, (951) 769-8522, [email protected] Fehr & Peers assisted the City of Beaumont with researching existing truck related policies in the California Vehicle Code and other State regulations. Fehr & Peers then developed a systematic procedure to identify truck routes and intersection geometry of potential trucks, and completed a recommended truck route system based on truck length and weight that are legal in California versus those listed in the Surface Transportation Assistance Act (STAA).
Fehr & Peers also led the development of a clean freight strategy for the city. This included frequent coordination with the State’s Department of Environmental Quality to identify greenhouse gas reduction strategies that could be incentivized for future developers. The strategies range from electrified truck parking, alternative fueling infrastructure, and clean vehicle purchase subsidies, to clean construction equipment, dust control protocols, cool roofs, and community mitigation grants.
WRCOG/SBTCA AB 98 Implementation

This effort, among other provisions, specifies which types of roadways can be designated as truck routes and requires general plan circulation elements to be updated with designated truck routes. Some SBCTA and WRCOG cities and the unincorporated Counties of San Bernardino and Riverside, have a compliance deadline of January 1, 2026. In addition to the General Plan Update requirement, AB 98 also specifies more stringent building and siting requirements for the development of industrial warehouses that need to be incorporated into local agency codes. As part of this effort, we have developed a checklist for member agencies to use, accompanied by model language to incorporate into their building and zoning codes. We are actively working with all member agencies to develop cleanup language, including a “safe harbor” provision that would allow cities to avoid the non-compliance fine of $50,000 if they are in the process of updating their General Plan.

As part of this effort, we have used big data (Geotab) to identify where trucks are parking and for how long to develop estimates of truck parking spaces needed in the region.
Caltrans District 8 is eager to work with partner agencies, and specifically, local jurisdictions that have to ability to implement, approve, and/or deny truck parking solutions, such as the development of truck parking facilities, requiring off-street truck staging areas as part of new truck-generating development approvals, and allowing on-street truck parking. Local agencies control entitlements, on-street parking, and land use and zoning, and Caltrans would like to work together to understand existing and future truck parking shortages and develop and implement solutions.

July 2024 – Ongoing
Client: City of Rancho Cucamonga
Client Contact: Jason Welday, PE, TE, Director of Engineering Services, City of Rancho Cucamonga, (909) 774-4011, [email protected]
Fehr & Peers prepared LOS and VMT analysis to support the development of three industrial sites in the Southeast Industrial Quadrant in Rancho Cucamonga. We identified intersection operations with and without the project and what local infrastructure improvements would be required to provide adequate traffic operations in the study area. We prepared VMT estimates and identified mitigation measures to support the CEQA documentation. We also tested multiple project alternatives and provided transportation metrics to support the air quality, noise, and GHG analyses.

Regular City Council Meeting - June 5, 2025
11. Proposed Agreement
Regular City Council Meeting - June 5, 2025
11. Proposed Agreement
Fehr & Peers proposes the following modifications to the City’s standard consultant agreement:
1. Performance. (Page 1 of the Sample Agreement)
Changes Requested: Consultant shall at all time faithfully, competently and to the best of his or her ability, experience, and talent, perform all tasks described herein. Consultant shall employ, at a minimum, generally accepted standards and practices utilized by persons engaged in perform its services in accordance with the care, skill, and diligence ordinarily exercised by professionals providing similar services in the same or similar locale and under similar circumstances as are required of Consultant hereunder in meeting its obligations under this Agreement.
Reason for Changes: We are requesting certain portions be struck in this Section because they create a heightened standard of care the Consultant would have to meet in its services for the City. By our markups above, we are providing the definition of the prevailing, professional standard of care consultants are to meet in their professional services. The stricken language creates a heightened standard of care that is unknown and undefined. Falling short of the prevailing, professional standard of care is the definition of negligence. Professional Liability Insurance only covers the insured professional’s negligence in the performance of its services. It does not cover contractual obligations to meet a standard higher than the prevailing standard of care.
2. Suspension or Termination of Agreement Without Cause. (Paragraph 2 on Page 2 of the Sample Agreement) Changes Requested: In the event this Agreement is terminated pursuant to this Section, the City shall pay to Consultant the actual value of the work performed up to the time of termination, provided that the work performed is in accordance with this Agreement of value to the City
. Upon termination of the Agreement pursuant to this Section, the Consultant will submit an invoice to the City pursuant to Section 4.
Reason for Changes: The City’s determination as to what work is of value to the City is subjective. In the event of an early termination, the Consultant should be paid for the services it performed to the date of termination that are in accordance with the objective terms, conditions, and criteria in the Agreement.
3. Indemnification. (Pages 3-4 in the Sample Agreement) Changes Requested:
Indemnity for Design
Professional Services. In connection with its design professional services, but subject to the limitations of Section 2 of this Agreement, Consultant shall hold harmless and indemnify City, its elected officials, officers, and employees, designated volunteers and those City agents serving as independent contractors in the role City officials (collectively “Indemnitees”), with respect to any and all claims, demands, liabilities, losses, costs or expenses, including reimbursement of reasonable attorney fees and costs of defense (collectively “Claims”), including but not limited to Claims relating to death or injury to any person and injury to any property, to the extent such Claims are caused by which to the extent arise out of, pertain to, or relate to the negligence, recklessness, or willful misconduct of Consultant or any of its officers, employee, sub consultants, or agents in the performance or its of their professional services under this Agreement.
In no event shall the cost to defend charged to the Consultant exceed the Consultant’s proportionate percentage of fault as set forth in California Civil Code 2782.8.
Other Indemnities. In connection with any and all claims, demands, damages, liabilities, losses, costs or expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs of defense (collectively, “Damages” hereinafter) not covered by Paragraph 9.A. above, and arising out of Consultant’s physical activities and operations in connection with its performance of this Agreement other than its performance of professional services, but subject to the limitations of Section 2 of this Agreement, Consultant shall
defend, hold harmless and indemnify the Indemnitees with respect to any and all Claims Damages, including but not limited to, Claims Damages relating to death or injury to any person and injury to any property, which arise out of, pertain to, or relate to acts or omissions of Consultant or any of its officers, employees, subcontractors, or agents in their physical activities and operations in the performance of this Agreement, except for such loss or damage Damages arising from the negligence
or willful misconduct of the City, as determined by final arbitration or court decision or by the agreement of the parties.
Consultant shall defend Indemnitees in any action or actions filed in connection with any such Claims Damages with counsel
Regular City Council Meeting - June 5, 2025
of City’s choice, and shall pay all costs and expenses, including all reasonable attorneys’ fees and experts’ costs actually incurred in connection with such defense. Consultant’s duty to defend pursuant to this Section 9.B. shall apply independent of any prior, concurrent or subsequent misconduct, negligent acts, errors or omissions ofr Indemnitees.
Reasons for Changes: By our markups we are modifying the first part of the indemnification Section to cover all professional services performed by the Consultant, and not just design professional services. The Consultant awarded this contract may be performing a combination of transportation planning (i.e., non-design professional) services and traffic engineering (i.e., design professional) services. However, transportation planning services, like design professional/engineering services, are still considered professional services. We have coverage under our Professional Liability Insurance for both our transportation planning and engineering services. However, our coverage, like all Professional Liability Policies, is not triggered unless we cause damages due to our negligence in our professional services. There has to be negligence on our part in order for our Professional Liability Policy to provide insurance coverage for this indemnity obligation. Without our changes to the first paragraph, for claims against the City arising out of our transportation planning services, we could be stuck indemnifying the City in accordance with the second paragraph, which does not have a negligence threshold. We would be paying for this indemnity obligation out of pocket with no insurance available to assist us. That could bankrupt a smaller firm.
To clarify this indemnity obligation, we have modified this indemnity obligation to create a bifurcated indemnity obligation to cover the risks associated with the work and to align with the various policies of insurance that would cover these risks. With our changes, the first paragraph would apply to all of our professional services for the City, including transportation planning and engineering services, and would be covered by our Professional Liability Insurance due to the negligence trigger in the first paragraph. With our changes to the second paragraph, this creates an indemnity obligation arising out of our on-site physical activities and operations in our work for the City. If we cause a personal injury on-site, on-site property damage, or one of our employees is injured while working on site, an applicable insurance policy of ours would pay for the damages the City suffers resulting from this, such as our General Liability, Auto Liability, Workers’ Compensation, or Employer’s Liability insurance. No finding of negligence on our part is necessary to trigger coverage under those policies for damages we cause in our physical activities and operations.

Comprehensive Plan, Small Jurisdiction;
David Sargent has practiced architecture and urban planning and design in California for over 40 years, and in 1995 founded Sargent Town Planning in Ventura to focus his practice on pedestrian- and transit-oriented districts, corridors, neighborhoods, towns and cities. He has assembled and directed multidisciplinary teams for urban projects throughout the country, ranging in size from urban infill projects to multi-neighborhood master plans and entire cities, and ranging in scale and character from rural hamlets and small towns to major metropolitan districts and corridors.
David’s recent and current project experience includes master plans, specific plans, general plans, form-based codes and objective design and development standards, design guidelines, and implementation strategies for downtowns, urban corridors, mixed-use centers and employment districts, neighborhoods and open space conservation throughout California.
For each project, he and the team carefully analyze the plan area and context in terms of urban form, transportation, existing policies and regulations and economics, and engage stakeholders, City professional staff, and the public to identify priorities, goals, concepts and strategies to manage and implement positive, locally calibrated, market-driven change. Plans and codes are developed through an interactive, collaborative process of consultation, analysis, workshops, and charrettes, illustrated at each stage with clear, graphic presentations that enable all participants to provide well-informed input and consent to the emerging plan and intended outcomes.
Selected Project Experience
Pedley Town Center Plan (Jurupa Valley, CA 2022-2023)
As a subconsultant to Civic Solutions, STP worked with the City and community of Jurupa Valley to prepare a master plan for one of the three walkable, mixed-use town centers identified in the City’s 2017 General Plan. The general plan described quite clearly the intended land uses, activities and “traditional small-town feel” , but deferred to future Town Center Master Plans and updated zoning the responsibilty for systematically evolving the existing, fragmented suburban and rural envionments to comfortable, walkable, mixed-use traditional town centers. Through a process of stakeholder meetings, interactive working sessions with City staff, and joint City Council /Planning Commission study sessions STP crafted a range of alternative development typologies and public realm enhancments for community consideration, and prepare a Master Plan based on the community’s preferences. The City Council unanimously endorsed the Master Plan as the basis for new Town Center Zoning. The firm is currently preparing a Citywide Corridors Plan for Jurupa Valley and beginning work on a Rubidoux Town Center Master Plan.
Downtown Precise Plan and Form-Based Code (Santa Clara, CA 2018-2023) The City of Santa Clara selected a team led by WRT , with STP leading the work on urban design, conceptual architecture and design guidelines. This effort was spurred by the very active Reclaiming Our Downtown community group who had long mourned the destruction of the 10 block downtown in the 1970s as part of a “redevelopment” strategy gone awry. They, and a Downtown Community Taskforce, were very engaged during a 2-year visioning process, and convinced the City Council that a form-based code would provide a more robust tool for agressive attracting and predicatably shaping long-overdue reinvestment. STP’s scope of services was expanded to prepare such a code, and the Precise Plan and Code were adopted in 2023.
Downtown Specific Plan (Watsonville, CA, 2018-2023)
As a subconsultant to Raimi + Associates, STP led the urban design vision work and prepared the form-based objective development standards for a new Specific Plan for Watsonville’s historic downtown. Design standards address public realm and street improvements and mixed-use development at a range of types and scales. Prior to Plan adoption in 2023 the City retained STP to Regular City Council Meeting - June 5, 2025

prepare a comprehensive update to their antiquated General Plan and zoning code. That process is well underway, with adoption anticipated in 2025.
Downtown Specific Plan (Indio, CA, 2018-2022)
As part of a team led by Raimi + Associates, STP led the urban design vision work for a comprehensive general plan update - adopted in 2019 - with a strong focus on the central Highway 111 Corridor and historic downtown. The City then retained STP to prepare a new Downtown Specific Plan and form-based code to revive and expand their moribund downtown. That Plan - adopted in 2020 - provides a clear vision and form-based code for rebuilding the historic downtown core with mixed use buildings, new housing, an expanded College of the Desert campus, new City Hall and civic center, and a range of entertainment, hospitality and office uses.
Village South Specific Plan (Claremont, CA, 2018-2021)
From a large field of proposers the City of Claremont selected a team led by STP , under a TOD planning grant from Metro, to prepare a plan for an 18-acre expansion of the historic Claremont Village to the south of the railroad tracks. The Plan was adopted unanimously by the City Council in the summer of 2021 -- after extended community discussions and debates and funding grant extensions -- and developers are preparing applications for several ambitious mixed-use projects based on the new Plan.
Downtown Corridors Specific Plan (San Fernando, CA 2012-2017) STP was selected by the City of San Fernando to update their Downtown Corridors Code Specific Plan under a grant from LA Metro, with a focus on adding new transit-oriented development near their Metrolink Station, and on preparing a new form-based development code. The two primary east-west streets of the downtown - San Fernando Road and Truman Street - are the original and “first downtown bypass” alignments of historic Route 99, and STP prepared designs for evolving them into pedestrian-oriented downtown streets. The planning process dragged on much longer than anticipated due to shifting politics, changing City staff, and small groups of concerned citizens.
After its successful completion and adoption, the Plan was recognized by the Southern California Association of Governments (SCAG) with its “Against All Odds Award” .
Downtown and Midtown Plans & Form-Based Codes (Ventura , CA, 1993-2021) In 1992 as a long-time member of the City’s Architectural Review Board, Mr. Sargent successfully lobbied the Ventura City Council to fund a Downtown Specific Plan. He co-chaired the Commiunity Steering Comittee for that process and the plan was adopted in 1994. In 2004, Sargent Town Planning was part of a team with Crawford Multari Clark Associates (CMCA) retained to prepare a form-based development code to improve the quality of infill development within the downtown.
The firm served as Consulting Town Architect for almost a decade, during which time many infill projects were designed and sevaral built before the great recession. In 2007 Mr. Sargent led the preparation of the Midtown Corridors Form-Based Code, again in association with CMCA, extending the downtown coding techniques two miles eastward along Main Street and Thompson Boulevard, the first and second, respectively, historic Highway 101 roadways through Ventura. In 2008 that code was recognized by the Form-Based Codes Institute with their first annual Driehaus Award for excellence in form-based coding.

opportunities and challenges facing Norco in the coming decades. The overwhelming response has been to “keep Norco Norco” , which sounds simple but requires that the General Plan and implementing zoning codes clearly describe the type of small town, semi-rural neighborhood and town center environments that the community hopes to see. Simply saying no to new development is not fiancially feasible, as the town needs significant new revenues to remain fiscally viable, and must shape new housing to meet State requirements and local preferences. To help guide current projects, the City has requested that STP assist them in updating Objective Design and Development Standards for mixed-use activity centers concurrently with the General Plan Update, which is expected to be complete in 2025.
Village South Specific Plan (Claremont, CA, 2018-2021)
From a large field of proposers the City of Claremont selected a team led by STP , under a TOD planning grant from Metro, to prepare a plan for an 18-acre Transit-Oriented Development, expanding the historic Claremont Village to the south of the railroad tracks. Plan elements include a community-based vision plan and form-based development code, and Objective Design and Development Standards to predictably implement diverse new housing types in a walkable, mixed- use, transit-oriented setting a block from the existing Metrolink commuter rail station and a new Gold Line light rail station. The Plan was adopted unanimously by the City Council in the summer of 2021 and developers are preparing applications for several mixed-use projects.
Downtown Corridors Specific Plan (San Fernando, CA 2012-2017) STP was selected by the City of San Fernando to update their Downtown Corridors Code Specific Plan under a grant from LA Metro, with a focus on adding new transit-oriented development near their Metrolink Station, and on preparing a new form-based development code. The two primary east-west streets of the downtown - San Fernando Road and Truman Street - are the original and “first downtown bypass” alignments of historic Route 99, and STP prepared designs for evolving them into pedestrian-oriented downtown streets. The original specific plan - prepared by the same firm who prepared Ventura’s original Downtown Specific Plan - was a strong start but the process dragged on much longer than anticipated due to shifting politics, changing City staff, and small groups of concerned citizens. STP After its successful completion and adoption, the Plan was recognized by the Southern California Association of Governments (SCAG) with its “Against All Odds Award” .
Downtown Specific Plan (Watsonville, CA, 2018-2023)
As a subconsultant to Raimi + Associates, STP led the urban design vision work and prepared the form-based objective development standards for a new Specific Plan for Watsonville’s historic downtown. Design standards address public realm and street improvements and mixed-use development at a range of types and scales. Prior to Plan adoption in 2023 the City retained STP to prepare a comprehensive update to their antiquated General Plan and zoning code. That process is well underway, with adoption anticipated in 2025.
Downtown Area Plan (Fontana, CA, 2016-2017)
As a sub-consultant to Stantec as part of a general plan update, STP led public workshops to define a community vision for new “Walkable Mixed-Use” place-type designations, and prepared a Downtown Area Plan as a chapter of the new General Plan. That 4 square mile Area Plan included the historic Route 66 Corridor, the historic downtown on the Sierra Avenue corridor, and the Metrolink Station area.

CT: AGENDA ITEM NO. 12.O
FOURT
H AMENDMENT TO THE AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE CITY OF
JURUPA VALLEY AND VAN DYKE LANDSCAPE ARCHITECTS , INC.
FOR ON-CALL LANDSCAPE ARCHITECTURAL SERVICES
RECOM
MENDATION
1) That t
he City Council approve the Fourth Amendment to the Agreement between the City of Jurupa Valley and Van Dyke Landscape Architects , Inc. for On-Call Landscape Architectural Services and authorize the City Manager to execute the Agreement in substantially the form and format attached and as approved by the City Attorney.
BACKGROUND
Landsc
ape architectural services are necessary to planning and land development related activities. As directed by the City Council, the City has actively been recruiting in-house staff to provide support services related to planning and land development.
While the Public Works Department (“Department”) has been successful in recruiting these positions, the City still requires assistance from outside firms to manage the workload and offer consulting services in specialized areas, including landscape architectural services.
At t
he July 21, 2022, City Council meeting, the Council approved an agreement with Van Dyke Landscape Architects, Inc. (“VDLA”) to provide landscape design, landscape inspection, and plan checking services. The original agreement called for a not to exceed amount of $75,000 per fiscal year. The initial term of the agreement ends July 31, 2025, but may be extended for two, one-year extensions by mutual agreement.
On Apr
il 20, 2023, the City Council approved the First Amendment to the Agreement between the City and VDLA. This amendment increased the amount not to exceed $150,000 per fiscal year.
RETURN TO AGENDA
Regular City Council Meeting - June 5, 2025
Page | 2
Due to considerable ongoing development, the City has utilized VDLA for additional services at a rate far quicker than anticipated. As a result, a Second Amendment was approved by the City Council on February 1, 2024, increasing the contract limit to $250,000 per fiscal year. The original agreement allowed for two, one- year extensions upon the completion of the initial three-year term, which ends on July 31, 2025, if the City and VDLA choose to do so.
On September 5, 2024, the City Council approved the Third Amendment to the Agreement between the City and VDLA. This amendment incorporated an increase to VDLA’s hourly rates and a clause for future annual adjustments. The Amendment identified that VDLA may request a rate adjustment every July 1 st for the remainder of the
Agreement. The adjustment must be based on Consumer Price Index (“CPI”) and shall not exceed 5%.
ANALYSIS
VDLA has largely been assisting City staff with plan checking and landscape inspection services. A detailed inspection for all the landscape improvements is conducted before the City accepts the improvements for maintenance. The City has accepted seven new developments for landscape maintenance over the past fiscal year and anticipates accepting four additional developments in the next twelve months. To date, the majority of the services received under this Agreement have all been reimbursed through land development projects.
Due to the considerable amount of land development occurring in the City, it is recommended to extend the agreement with VDLA for a one-year extension and increase the existing contract along with amendments for an additional year through July 31, 2026.
In addition, the billing hourly rates for VDLA will be increased by 2.9%, which is consistent with the CPI for the Riverside -San Bernardino- Ontario area for 2024 January to December period.
As previously stated, the majority of services are reimbursable through land development projects. Funding for the Amendment is identified in the proposed Fiscal Year 202 5-26 budget.
FINANCIAL IMPACT
The majority of services provided will continue to be reimbursed by new development projects and capital improvement projects . There will be minimal impact to the City’s General Fund.

1. Do not approve the Fourth Amendment between the City and VDLA

Re: Extension of VDLA On-Call Contract
Hello,
On July 21st, 2022, Van Dyke Landscape Architects (VDLA) entered into an On-Call Agreement with the City of Jurupa Valley. This contract is set to expire on July 31st, 2025. VDLA is requesting to exercise the option expressed in Section 1 of our contract to extend our agreement an additional year, thus making the expiration July 31st, 2026. We believe the City would benefit greatly from continuity of keeping VDLA on call.
In addition, VDLA is requesting a formal rate increase from $129.00 an hour for all services to $132.00 an hour, as described below.
This rate increase is in line with the 2.9% CPI year- over-year increase for 01/2024-01/2025 in Riverside County. This number was taken from the U.S Bureau of Labor and Statistics.
Working with the City has been a great pleasure, and we hope that we can continue to work together.
Thank you for your time and consideration-
Yale Hooper
President

ECT: AGENDA ITEM NO. 12.P
APPROVAL TO PURCHASE TWO (2) F -150 VEHICLES FOR THE
MOBILE FOOD VENDING PROGRAM
RECO
MMENDATION
1) It is recommended that the City Council approve the purchase of two (2) Ford F- 150 vehicles to support the Mobile Food Vending Program for $ 88,752.22, including taxes and fees.
2) That
the City Council authorizes the Finance Director to make any necessary budget adjustments.
BACKGRO
UND
On M
arch 20, 2025, City Council approved the purchase of 2 pick-up trucks to be utilized by two (2) Full Time Code Enforcement Officers for the Food Truck and Street Vending Program in Fiscal Year 2024-2025.
Upon
acquisition, the trucks will be incorporated into the City’s fleet, which currently consists of forty-seven (47) vehicles. This total includes nine (9) vehicles assigned to the Riverside County Sheriff’s Department. The remaining thirty-eight (38) vehicles consist of a combination of passenger vehicles used by administrative staff, Code Enforcement, and Building and Public Works Inspectors, as well as light -duty trucks operated by Public Works Maintenance staff.
ANALY
SIS
As
the City continues to grow, additional vehicles are necessary to support operational efficiency and ensure uninterrupted service delivery. Purchasing the two (2) vehicles will help maintain productivity and prevent disruptions in daily tasks. In particular, the Code Enforcement department, who will utilize the vehicles for the Food Truck and Street

Vendor Enforcement Program by conducting field inspections and site visits. Purchasing the vehicles will support the Division’s ability to meet service demands effectively.
City
staff solicited proposals from three (3) local dealerships listed as follows:
Dealership Location Price Quantity Total
Sunrise Ford Fontana, CA $44,376.11 2 $88,752.22
Citrus Ford Ontario, CA $44,842.99 2 $89,685.98
Fritts Ford Riverside, CA $45,995.97 2 $91,991.94
As
part of the City’s Mobile Food Vending Program, staff will be implementing enforcement measures to ensure vendor compliance with permit requirements and operational regulations. In some cases, enforcement efforts may require the temporary confiscation of unpermitted equipment, which must be safely transported to a designated City facility. To support these daily operations, staff recommends the acquisition of Ford vehicles, which align with the City’s existing fleet and are known for their reliability, cost - effective maintenance, and suitability for field use. This investment will enhance the City’s capacity to effectively enforce the program and maintain public safety and regulatory compliance throughout the community.
The pr
oposal from Sunrise Ford is fair and reasonable. Therefore, staff is recommending the purchase of two (2) 2025 F -150 pickup trucks from Sunrise Ford in Fontana, CA.
Sunrise Ford is a reputable dealership in the local market from which the City has purchased multiple vehicles, including the latest vehicle purchase in March, 2025.
FI
NANCIAL IMPACT
The t
otal cost of the two (2) 2025 Ford F -150s including tax is $88,752.22 . The funding for the purchase is available in Internal Service Fund (ISF) Equipment and Vehicles account number 730.7300.62720.

In connection with the incorporation of the City of Jurupa Valley in 2011, the Local Agency Formation Commission of Riverside County (LAFCO) adopted its Resolution No. 12- 10 on July 22, 2010, which transferred the authority and responsibility for special assessment districts within the incorporated City to the City of Jurupa Valley. Thereafter, City Council adopted Resolution No. 11- 26 on July 1, 2011, by which the City assumes all authority and responsibility for the special assessment districts. The County’s Landscape and Lighting Maintenance District No. 89- 1-Consolidated (the “County District”), established pursuant to the provisions of the Act , includes various territories located both within the incorporated boundaries of the City (the “City Territory”) and outside the incorporated boundaries of the City (the “County Territory”). Pursuant to its Resolution No. 2016-01 adopted on February 4, 2016, the City declared that the City Territory is a district under the 1972 Act, which is separate and distinct from the County Territory, and designated such territory as the “Jurupa Valley Landscape and Lighting Maintenance District No. 89-1-Consolidated” (the “District”).
The District maintains and services 77 zones with 87 locations throughout the City of Jurupa Valley which includes 54 landscaping assessment zones and 23 street lighting assessment zones as described in Attachment 1 . In accordance with t he Landscaping and Lighting Act of 1972 staff prepared the following annual resolutions for adoption:
1. Re
solution No. 2025-53: Approving the annual Engineer’s Report for Fiscal Year (FY 2025-26).
2. Re
solution No. 2025 -54: Declaring the intention to levy and collect the annual assessments for FY 2025-26.

ANALYSIS
Adoption of Resolution No. 2025- 53 and Resolution No. 2025- 54 begins the annual process to levy and collect assessments for FY 2025-26 for the zones previously annexed to the District. A description of the installation, maintenance, and servicing of these zones is provided in the Engineer’s Report, Volumes 1 and 2, included as Attachments 4 and 5 respectively. The next step is a public hearing to receive public testimony regarding the proposed annual assessments. Following public testimony, the City Council may adopt a resolution confirming the assessable zones for FY 2025- 26. If so approved, the City will submit the tax rolls to the County of Riverside Auditor Controller’s Office to facilitate the collection of assessments in accordance with the Act and Proposition 218.
The public hearing is scheduled for 7:00 p.m. on July 17, 2025.
OTHER INFORMATION
Of the 77 zones, Zone 95, Zone 102, Zone 128, Zone 141, Zone C, Zone DD and Street Lighting Zone 69 are not yet maintained and not assessed. Zone AA is dormant and not assessed. Should the status of these 8 zones remain the same prior to submission of fixed charges to the County of Riverside Auditor Controller’s Office, the assessment s totaling $467,793.42 will not be submitted and therefore not collected.
Zone JJ, Zone LL, Zone MM, and Zone QQ are expected to start maintenance in FY 2025-2026. Staff will return to City Council at a future date with recommendations to annex these 4 zones to the District and to levy and collect assessments totaling $78,741.16.
FINANCIAL IMPACT
The estimated revenues from all existing zones and the zones expected to start maintenance in FY 2025-26 is $1,597,388.99. A breakdown of the assessments for each zone is provided in Attachment 3.
As a matter of urgency this item must appear on the June 5, 2025 City Council agenda in order to set the July 17, 2025 public hearing; failure to do so will result in loss of District revenue for FY 20 25-26 for the maintenance of landscaping, trails, fencing, fossil filters and street lights within certain areas of the City of Jurupa Valley.

ALTERNATIVES
1. Tak
e no action. This would mean that the City of Jurupa Valley could not continue collecting assessments to pay for maintenance of improvements in these specific rights-of-way and would need to discontinue (a) the maintenance of landscaping, trails, fencing, and irrigation services to these areas, in certain zones, (b) maintaining the fossil filters in certain zones as required by the Santa Ana Regional Water Quality Control Board regarding compliance with the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permit, and (c) paying Edison for street light energy costs in certain zones.
2. Pr
ovide staff with further direction.

Engineer’s Report – Volume 1
City of Jurupa Valley
LLMD No. 89-1-C
Fiscal Year 2025-2026
3 PART I – PLANS AND SPECIFICATIONS
Background
This combined Annual Engineer’s Report is prepared in compliance with the requirements of Article 4, Chapter 1, of the Landscaping and Lighting Act of 1972 (“1972 Act”), which is Part 2, Division 15 of the California Streets and Highways Code.
Since the Passage of Proposition 218, Right to Vote on Taxes Act, which added Articles XIII (C) and XIII (D) to the California Constitution, new procedures must be followed to levy annual assessments under the 1972 Act. Proposition 218 requires that all annual assessments be supported by a detailed Engineer’s Report (“Report”) prepared by a registered professional engineer. The Report includes the information required by law.
The 1972 Act provides for the annual levy of assessments for the Jurupa Valley Landscaping and Lighting Maintenance District No. 89-1-C, for the express purpose of installing, maintaining, and servicing of the following:
Landscaping, including trees, shrubs, grass, or other ornamental vegetation; Statuary, fountains, and other ornamental structures;
Public lighting facilities, including traffic signals; Appurtenant facilities necessary for the maintenance or servicing thereof, including walls, sidewalks, and removal of debris; and
Maintenance and/or servicing of any of the foregoing, including the removal of trimmings, rubbish, debris, and other solid waste; and the cleaning, sandblasting, and painting of walls and other improvements to remove or cover graffiti.
The cost associated with the installation, maintenance, and servicing of the improvements may be assessed against those properties which are specially benefited by the installation, maintenance, and servicing. A City may levy annual assessments for an assessment district after complying with the requirements of the 1972 Act, and the provisions in Proposition 218.
The City initiates proceedings for the annual levy of assessments by passing a resolution, which proposed the annual levy under the 1972 Act. This resolution also describes the improvements, describes the location of the District, and finally, orders an engineer, who is a registered professional engineer, certified by the State of California, to prepare and file a detailed report.
The Report prepared by the engineer must include maintenance plans for the improvements. The Report must also include an estimate of the costs of the improvements, a diagram, i.e., map of the District showing the boundary of the District, and an assessment of the estimated costs of the improvements against the parcels or lots which benefit from the improvements. Once the Report is completed, it is presented to the City Council for its review and approval as presented, or it may be modified and approved.
Once the Report is completed, it is presented to the City Council for its review and approval as presented, or it may be modified and approved. After preliminary approval of the Report, the City Council may adopt a Resolution of Intention, which declares its intent to levy the annual assessments against parcels within the existing District, describes the Regular City Council Meeting - June 5, 2025
