DATE: June 17, 2024
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council
FROM: Christy Lopez, Finance Director
SUBJECT: OPERATION & MAINTENANCE COMMUNITY FACILITY DISTRICT NO. 90-1; SPECIAL TAX LEVY FISCAL YEAR 2024-25
SUMMARY
Operation and Maintenance Community Facilities District No 90-1 (O&M CFD 90-1), a special tax district within the La Verne Industrial Specific Plan, requires the City Council to authorize the levy annually. Exhibit “A” of the attached resolution lists the properties and their levies included in the district.
RECOMMENDATION
That the City Council adopt a Resolution levying a special tax for Community Facility District 90- 1 for the 2024-25 Fiscal Year, which increases the rate by 4.0% to address the cost of living increases based on the annual consumer price index ending March 2024.
DISCUSSION
In January 1991, the City Council approved Ordinance No. 817 authorizing the levy of a special tax on Community Facilities District No. 90-1. The special taxes are to be levied each year on those properties contained in the District (La Verne Industrial Specific Plan) for the operation and maintenance of the public infrastructure. Refer to Exhibit “A” of the original Engineer’s Report and Exhibit “A” of the attached Resolution for those properties which are to receive a levy. The formation of the district allowed for an annual increase not to exceed 5%. These taxes will fund public safety services, sewer pump maintenance, street maintenance, and related administrative costs for services provided to the District. The total square footage assessed this Fiscal Year is 2,227,954.
FISCAL ANALYSIS
Annual revenue of $1,731,788 is projected for the FY 2024–25 assessments associated with CFD No. 90-1. This revenue will be applied to offset costs of special benefits provided to the district as further described in City of La Verne Ordinance 817.
ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS
Not applicable.
LEGAL REVIEW
The City Attorney has reviewed and approved this report.

TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council
FROM: Meg McWade, Public Works Director
SUBJECT: ADOPTION OF A RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING ANNUAL AGREEMENTS FOR FISCAL YEAR 2024-2025 RELATED TO PUBLIC WORKS SERVICES
SUMMARY
This item recommends the adoption of a Resolution authorizing annual agreements related to Public Works services.
RECOMMENDATION
That the City Council adopt the attached Resolution approving annual City agreements related to Public Works services and authorize the Mayor and Deputy City Clerk to execute the annual agreements as listed on the Resolution.
DISCUSSION
The Annual Agreement process was designed to simplify the administrative process for City agreements and had been utilized for many years. More recently, the City revised and formalized a Purchasing Policy for all citywide Procurements, including clarifying the procedures for awarding new contracts and renewing existing agreements. As part of that process, the CIty is moving to competitively bid existing agreements that exceed five years. The Public Works Department has begun the process with the recent award of the HVAC maintenance contract.
Additionally, the award for Citywide Herbicide Services and Landscape Maintenance and Fuel Modification for Lighting and Landscape Maintenance Assessment Districts is planned for award on the June 17, 2024 City Council agenda. The Resolution and requested Annual Agreement authorization is being utilized to provide additional time, given current Public Works staffing resources and City priorities, to continue the procurement process (competitive bidding and/or cooperative purchasing review) for the remaining agreements.
To assist the City Council in its review of this item, the following is a brief explanation of each agreement for Public Works related services. As a note, there are Community Development related functions within the RKA Consulting Group contract which is being awarded with the Public Works engineering service annual agreement.
Athens Disposal - Provides street sweeping services throughout the city limits on a routine basis and additional sweeping services, as needed.
Cico Electrical and Morrow Meadows - These firms provide technical support predominantly for the City's water and sewer systems. Maintaining non-exclusive contracts with each firm provides greater assurance that services can be obtained when needed. The City generally uses each firm for specific functions: Cico Electric handles only electric repair services, and
Council Agenda Packet, June 17, 2024
Adoption of a Resolution Authorizing Annual Agreements for Fiscal Year 2024-2025 Related to Public Works Services, Page 2
Morrow Meadows provides electrical repairs for the utilities and the city’s current Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) programming for the water system.
Civiltec Engineering, Inc. - Provides specialized engineering services for water and sewer related functions. The firm has been the City’s utility engineer for more than two decades and the firm’s principal has been associated with the City’s water system for more than three decades. The firm is uniquely qualified to provide necessary engineering services due to their institutional knowledge of the water and sewer systems design and operation.
Econolite Systems, Inc. - Provides routine maintenance and repair of the City’s traffic signals and related control systems. The service from the vendor is dependable and technicians are familiar with the system as most of La Verne’s traffic signals use Econolite equipment.
General Pump, Layne Christensen, Tri County Pump - All three companies provide groundwater well and pump maintenance and repair services. The City maintains non- exclusive, annual contracts with all three firms to ensure that services are provided when necessary. The annual contract also allows the City to streamline repairs to ensure water system reliability and that the City maximizes the lowest cost water available.
Greenscape Maintenance Services (Greenscape) - This agreement is for citywide landscape maintenance services for various medians, parkways and City Facilities. Greenscape has previously been awarded the contract for Sports Park Maintenance through a competitive bidding process. Also, this evening's agenda includes a recommendation to award a contract to Greenscape for Lighting and Landscape Maintenance District (LLMD) landscape maintenance and fuel modification services, which was also competitively bid.
RKA Consulting Group - RKA has provided contract services for Building and Safety (Community Development) and Engineering since 1988. This includes appointment as the City Engineer and related project development and implementation. This firm is uniquely qualified to provide these services given their institutional knowledge of the City's infrastructure, organization, and community. The Agreement also includes services related to Community Development, such as building plan checks, building inspection services, engineering review, grading plan check and inspections, and subdivision review.
Sierra Pacific - Sierra Pacific Electric provides maintenance and repair for City-owned streetlights.
West Coast Arborist - Provides routine and emergency tree maintenance services, including trimming, removals, planting, emergency response, etc.

Agenda Report
DATE: June 17, 2024
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council
FROM: Debra Fritz, Deputy City Clerk
SUBJECT: ADOPTION OF ORDINANCE 24-1127, "AN ORDINANCE AUTHORIZING AN
AMENDMENT TO THE CONTRACT BETWEEN THE CITY COUNCIL OF LA
VERNE AND THE BOARD OF ADMINISTRATION OF THE CALIFORNIA PUBLIC EMPLOYEES' RETIREMENT SYSTEM."
SUMMARY
This action is to adopt an ordinance amending the contract between the City and the Board of Administration for the California Public Employees' Retirement System related to employee cost share percentage of the employer's portion.
RECOMMENDATION
That the City Council adopt Ordinance 24-1127, "An Ordinance Authorizing an Amendment to the Contract Between the City Council of La Verne and the Board of Administration of the California Public Employees' Retirement System."
DISCUSSION
On May 6, 2024, the City Council introduced by title only and waived further reading of an ordinance amending the contract between the City and the Board of Administration for the California Public Employees' Retirement System. The ordinance completes the process to increase the employees' cost share of the employers' portion of pension payments by 1% for unrepresented employees and members of the Police Officers Association, Police Middle Management Association, and City Employees Association, as agreed to in the most recent negotiated Memorandums of Understanding. The employee cost share for the City Manager increases by 2% per the City Manager employment agreement. On May 20th, City Council adopted the Ordinance. Through the CalPERS review process, the City was notified that 20 days had not passed between the first reading of the ordinance on May 6th and the adoption of the ordinance on May 20th, and pursuant to Government Code 20471 which requires 20 days in-between the first reading and the adoption. Accordingly, the City Council is required to re- adopt the ordinance to satisfy the requirement of Government Code Section 20471.
FISCAL ANALYSIS
The action by Classic employees to pick up a percentage of the City's portion of pension payments, adding to their current 8% (miscellaneous) or 9% (safety employees) pension already paid by the employee, reduces the City's pension obligation costs as identified when the Memorandums of Understanding were approved.
ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS
Not applicable.

Agenda Report
DATE: June 17, 2024
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council
FROM: Eric Scherer, Community Development Director
SUBJECT: DIRECTION REGARDING RENEWAL OF THE OUTDOOR PATIO PERMIT
FOR CAFE WANG
SUMMARY
The City Council is being asked for direction in regard to the previously temporary approved sidewalk expansion for Cafe Wang. The Old Town La Verne Business Improvement District Advisory Board is recommending that the outdoor patio no longer be allowed to be used and ultimately removed after December 31 2024.
RECOMMENDATION
That the City Council take one of the following actions regarding the outdoor patio for Cafe Wang:
1. Require the patio to be immediately closed off and physically removed from the street in the next 30 days; or
2. As recommended by the Old Town La Verne Business Improvement District's Advisory Board, allow the outdoor patio to be used for the remainder of the calendar year, with physical removal by January 31, 2025; or
3. Allow for the patio to remain in place for some other specific time period with another review by the City Council before requiring its ultimate removal.
DISCUSSION
Due to the Covid pandemic, the section of D Street between Bonita Avenue and Third Street was closed to vehicle traffic on July 1, 2020, to allow for restaurants to open expanded outdoor dining in conjunction with the restrictions by state and county mandates at the time. Nearly every restaurant on this block took advantage of this opportunity. As mandates were continually changing during this period, the street remained closed to vehicle traffic for an entire year except two months in the winter of 2020. In the summer of 2021, with indoor dining limits removed, the majority of the restaurants stopped utilizing their temporary outdoor spaces. The Old Town La Verne Business Improvement District Advisory Board (Board) then recommended that the City Council re-open the street to vehicles, which would require the removal of all temporary patios within the street and parking spaces.
At their July 19, 2021 meeting, the City Council voted to re-open the street but allowed for expanded outdoor patios within the parking spaces for any restaurant who wished to do so for the "foreseeable future." The owners of Cafe Wang (Owners) were the only ones who immediately applied to have expanded outdoor dining within the parking spaces in front of their
Council Agenda Packet, June 17, 2024
Direction Regarding Renewal of the Outdoor Patio Permit for Cafe Wang, Page 2
restaurant. That initial setup included water barricades and temporary shade canopies with tables and chairs placed directly on the asphalt.
This design resulted in complaints about the appearance of the patio area. While the permit issued by the Public Works Department for the patio did not have an expiration date, the required insurance policy did expire in February 2022. After learning this, the Board voted in December 2021 to recommend that the permit for the patio not be extended once the insurance expired. The Owners wished to keep the patio, and proposed that they would spend a considerable amount of money to build a more aesthetically pleasing patio similar to what was found in Claremont, but would need some assurances that the patio could remain for a longer period of time. In January 2022, the Board voted to allow the patio to remain (and allow for a new insurance policy to be submitted to the City, keeping the permit valid) for a period of at least two years. The Owners immediately began working with the City to obtain permits to construct the patio that has been in place since April 2022.
As the January 2024 Board meeting was canceled, the patio was put on the February 2024 agenda for discussion, with the Owners requesting that the patio be allowed to remain indefinitely and staff recommending that the patio be allowed to remain for another year and then be reassessed. At that meeting, the Board decided to do a poll of the other businesses on their position of allowing the patio to remain until at least May 31, 2024, for the poll to be conducted. The Owners were also asked if they would be able to provide any statistics on how often the patio was utilized to help inform a decision. As other meetings were canceled due to lack of quorum, the Board finally discussed the results of the poll at their meeting on May 13, 2024.
At this meeting, the Owners presented the statistics of the usage of the patio and Board Member George Henerson said that his informal poll revealed that approximately 80% of the businesses on D Street between Bonita Avenue and Third Street wanted to see the patio removed. After a lengthy discussion, the Board voted on a 3-2 vote to recommend that the City Council allow the patio to remain until the end of the calendar year, and then provide the Owners with a reasonable amount of time to have the patio structure removed and return the parking spaces to their original condition.
The City Council has the final determination on allowing the patio structure to remain. As an alternative to the Board recommendation that the use be terminated by the end of the calendar year, the City Council can require its termination of use and removal within a short period of time (for example, within 30 or 60 days), or could allow its operation for a longer time to allow greater cost recovery of its initial cost by the owners and set a time certain (for example, June 30, 2025) or require additional study be conducted during an extended term.
For the City Council's information, attached to this report are the minutes from the May 13, 2024, Board meeting, the request to keep the patio and the usage statistics provided by the Owners, and other correspondence that Staff has received regarding the patio. Criticism of the continuance of the exterior patio includes the reduction of the three parking spaces for other businesses, and considerations voiced in support of the presence of the exterior patio are the entertainment opportunities which have been viewed as a positive for the Old Town area.

3. APPROVAL OF THE MINUTES
It was moved by Dr. Espinoza and seconded by Ms. Stark to approve the minutes of February 5, 2024, February 22, 2024, and April 1 2024. Motion carried by a 5-0 vote.
4. NEW BUSINESS
A. Wine Walk Recap – Ms. Rehm provided the following figures: Ticket sales $50,545.01, costs $32,646, and estimated net profit $29,852.65. Ticket sales included 729 wine tasting tickets, 101 designated driver/food only tickets, and 77 tickets given to the volunteers and sponsors.
Ms. Rehm suggested cutting back on the number of bands next year to reduce costs. Mr. Scherer stated that Hal Fredrickson is not available to coordinate the bands next year.
Mr. Walters stated that having one check-in at Mainiero worked well and there were plenty of volunteers from the Rotary and Women’s Club. Mr. Scherer added that the location of the portable restrooms worked, and they were utilized throughout the event.
Mr. Walters recommended increasing the Food Tasting tickets to $45.00 next year.
Council Agenda Packet, June 17, 2024
B. Budget Review and Recommendation – Mr. Scherer stated that there might be a discrepancy with the total ticket revenue. Ms. Hiatt will review the totals and report back.
Mr. Scherer reviewed the 2024/25 Budget Report with the group. He stated that at the end of the fiscal year it’s estimated they will have $160,000 in reserves. The report reflects a $30,000 transfer to the Association. The increase will help the Board catch up and fund a part-time employee to assist with the events. The Capital Outlay budget in the amount of $20,000 was previously budgeted to help fund the second phase of tree lights. Mr. Scherer stated that he thought the funds could be used for the purchase of brackets on the streetlights for decorative banners.
Mr. Walters asked for an assessment of the condition of the existing tree lights.
Mr. Scherer submitted a request to Public Works and has yet to receive an answer.
He will follow up and report back.
Ms. Scherer stated that the City Manager is in the process of preparing a request for proposal (RFP) for improvements in Old Town.
It was moved by Mr. Henderson and seconded by Ms. Stark to recommend approval of the 2024/25 Budget to City Council. The motion carried by a 5-0 vote.
The Board also discussed the donation amount being given to the Rotary. It was moved by Ms. Rehm and seconded by Ms. Stark to approve a $2,000 donation to the Rotary. Motion carried by a 5-0 vote. Mr. Scherer stated that the check will be presented to the group at an upcoming City Council meeting.
Mr. Scherer stated that it came to his attention that the process in which City Council approves the group’s budget was done backwards in the past. This year the first City Council meeting will approve the budget annual report and a presentation will be given by Mr. Scherer and Mr. Walters. This meeting is scheduled for Monday, May 20th at 6:30pm. At the second meeting there will be a protest hearing and a recap of the budget from Mr. Scherer. This meeting is scheduled for Monday, June 6th at 6:30pm.
C. Café Wang Patio Recommendation – Mr. Scherer stated that the patio expansion expired in February and the Board approved an extension through May while a survey was performed by the Board.
Mr. Henderson stated that a confidential survey was conducted for the businesses on D Street. He stated that 80% of the businesses were opposed to the patio expansion.
Council Agenda Packet, June 17, 2024
Mr. Cannizzo spoke in opposition to the patio expansion but recommended that they keep it through the summer. He also recommended that after the patio is removed that the spaces be converted to handicap parking.
Mr. Scherer explained that due to the design of D Street handicap parking would not work. He also stated that a resident contacted the City wanting the patio removed and the resident also spoke at a recent City Council meeting.
Mr. Valmonte provided handout including data of the utilization of the patio. He stated that they tried to create a design everyone would enjoy.
Dr. Zuhey asked for more information on the opposition that was provided during the survey. It was stated that parking or perception of lack of parking was the main opposition.
Mr. Scherer stated that he intends to take the Sidewalk Dining policy back to City Council for review. The policy was originally drafted and approved in 2019. The current policy allows for each business to have two tables and four chairs at no fee. If more tables are requested there will be rental fee for the space being occupied. The business must also provide the proper insurance and ADA access.
It was moved by Mr. Henderson and seconded by Ms. Stark to recommend to City Council the removal of Café Wang’s patio expansion at the end of the calendar year. Motion carried by a 3-2 vote (Dr. Espinoza and Mr. Walters voted no).
Ms. Valdez volunteered to take the lead and organize the Beer Walk. Mr. Walters recommended she schedule a meeting soon. The Beer Walk is tentatively scheduled for Saturday, September 28th.

Subject: Re: Cafe Wang Patio
Hi Eric,
Thank you for the opportunity to share our thoughts with you and the BID Board regarding the patio.
We would like to ask the Board to consider allowing us to keep the patio indefinitely.
There are several reasons for this, here are just a few:
1. Provides customers with outdoor dining options.
Many customers have told us that they really
enjoy the choice to be able to eat outdoors, which adds to the ambience and overall experience of coming to Old Town. As you know, most of the dining establishments in Old Town have an outdoor patio (Chase's,4th St. Mill, Lordsburg, House of Wings, Caffe Allegro, House of Wings, Aoki, Warehouse Pizza & Mi Cocina).
2. Live music. Since its construction, many bands have had an opportunity to perform on the patio on Fridays and Saturdays. We have received lots of feedback from customers and passersby that the outdoor entertainment creates and vibrant energy and festive mood. Music and food have a way of bringing together people of all walks of life. In many cases, followers of the bands come to Old Town for the very first time. And while they might have come initially to see the band, they often walk around and visit some the surrounding shops. They in turn become return visitors to Old Town for other businesses. It's that type of synergy between the business in Old Town that make it a special place. As we have seen over the past couple seasons, more establishments have made live music a part of the overall dining experience (Chase's,4thSt Mill, Taberna/Passport, Namba, Mi Cocina and Lordsburg).
3. Investment. The patio design was more than just about creating space, it was also about creating an experience and an ambience for the community. Significant investment was made to create an appealing, eye-catching design. With the addition of the pergola and lanterns we wanted to create distinctly Asian theme and unique look. Additional investments were made for the tables, chairs and heaters. Being able to keep the patio indefinitely will allow us to not only preserve that investment but give us an opportunity to build upon and enhance it further, for now and into the future.
4. Future planning. The City has completed several upgrades to the corridor that leads to and from the future La Verne train station. It's seemed far in the distant future when we were still operating under COVID protocols and the approval for the patio was granted.
And yet now, we are possibly just
over a year from its opening. Undoubtedly the influx of additional visitors to Old Town will create several challenges for the City Council, ULV, Business Owners and Residents. But if we work together collectively and get this right, Old Town will transcend beyond the special place it already is, as the potential for an increased economic boost for the entire district is enormous. With a large influx of daily visitors anticipated, the patio allows us to preserve the additional capacity for potential customer growth.
Council Agenda Packet, June 17, 2024
2 In closing, we have been very grateful and thankful for all the support we have received from the Board since becoming part of the Old Town family in 2018. And what a ride it has been. Mix in a couple years of COVID, and now the current challenges of inflation, increased labor costs, and a slowing economy and no doubt none of us as business owners have been spared these challenges.
But through all this, the Board and the City have been a steady hand in guiding us through tumultuous times. The patio to us is more than just pieces of wood nailed together, it represents the evolution of Cafe Wang and Sweet Time. Over the past 2 years it has become part of and identity with our customers and the community. With your vote, we hope will allow us to maintain that identity well into the future.
Thank you,
Fang and Ken

Hi Ken and Fang:
In anticipation of the special BID meeting to discuss your patio, I would like you to provide me, in writing, what you would like to propose to the Board. Are you interested in an extension for a specific amount of time or indefinitely? In your request, you should indicate why the patio is important to the business.
Also, you should know that if allowed to keep the patio, it is expected that you would be required to start paying rent for the space after February 2024. The current monthly lease rate is $0.691 per s.f. of outdoor area used for the patio. The patio is 943 s.f. in size, resulting in a monthly lease payment of $651.62. In addition, you will be required to pay the one- time parking in-lieu fee ($1,000 per required parking space – Patios require one space for every 150 s.f., thus 6.3 spaces which round up to 7 spaces, thus, $7,000) for the expanded patio space if it is determined that the patio can remain indefinitely.
Please let me know if you have any questions. If you can have your request to me by Thursday afternoon, I would appreciate it.

City of La Verne, California
Dear Council Members,
024 U -5 A II : 3 9
Subj: Permission to continue to allow the patio in front of Cafe Wang to exist This is an appeal for your consideration to approve of an extension of the approval given Fang Wang, owner of Cafe Wang restaurant, located at 2316 -2320 D Street.
La Verme. fpr a street area patio/terrace eating outside area.
Due to economic issues, the restaurant's existence depends on the income it gets from customers sitting and eating on the patio area during part of the year. She invested nearly $30,000. two years ago and needs two more years at least to earn back that original cost, but more importantly, to keep the business alive ..
As far as the 3 parking spaces the patio uses on the street in front of restaurant, many of their customers walk from their residence in La Verne and don't need parking spaces. When I had my Book Stop bookstore at the same location in the 1980s and 90s, most of my customers needed parking spaces.
The business insurance coverage includes the patio area and the City is also overed with liability coverage.
The popularity of the restaurant and its' ability to provide music to the patio area several nights a week this time of the year induces more city residents to come to Old Town and appreciate the area.
So, please give Fang Wang a chance to continue to operate Cafe Wang with your approval to have
the street area patio area for at least a couple more years. I am a long-time resident of the city and have owned several buildings and businesses in Old Town and really value its offerings to the overall city. I know how hard it can be to keep a business open. Please help! Thank you.
Respectfully and grateful,

Dear Mr. Scherer,
My wife and I reside in the La Verne Heights neighborhood and we enjoy going out often with family and friends to dinner, lunch, and breakfast at several restaurants in Old Town La Verne.
I am also a part-time musician who performs weekly with my band, Jazz Fellowship , at various restaurants in the area as well as other venues throughout Southern California.
We have performed at Cafe Wang since November 2022 and especially on their patio every month from early summer through fall 2023. We look forward to playing on their patio again later this month and in July.
Cafe Wang's patio not only provides a great dining experience, it is also an attractive draw for couples, families and friends to visit the downtown area specifically to enjoy live music in a fun, outdoor experience. Whenever my band performs on the patio, we always notice people coming from every side of D Street to stand and listen to our music and then decide to sit at a table to order food and/or drinks.
In sum, Cafe Wang's patio serves as an attractive , dining and entertainment feature that significantly enhances the overall character and business environment of Old Town La Verne. Therefore, it is vital to both Cafe Wang and the business community-at-large to extend Cafe Wang's patio permit indefinitely.
I would appreciate it if you would add this letter to the June 17th City Council meeting package for the council members' cons ideration. I also plan to attend the June 17th meeting to offer my remarks in person.
Thank you,

City Council of La Verne,
I am writing this letter to show my support for “Café Wang” Fusion Restaurant located at 2316 D Street, La Verne, CA. It is my understanding that they will be going under review for consideration to allow the street side patio to remain in place. As a member of the community, we frequent this location for the great food, service and total downtown vibe. The patio location is a great source of entertainment as they have live music performing frequently and as someone who performs there as well, I can say the community really enjoys the entertainment in the evening as they stroll by the restaurant. I also feel the total look of the patio is functional and seems to fit the area. In closing, my family would like very much for this to remain as it is and especially with summer, we need more outdoor hang outs like this. Thank you very much for your time and consideration, sincerely.

Dear La Verne City Council,
I am writing to you today to express my deep concern about the issue of the removal of the outdoor patio seating on D Street, which is affecting Cafe Wang Chinese Fusion & Bar.
During the pandemic, many of the businesses on D Street were affected, and ultimately, you closed the street off to traffic. Letting the businesses have outdoor service and seating. Cafe Wang Chinese Fusion & Bar was able to continue the outdoor seating on D Street and has spent a considerable amount of money to maintain and make it appealing to customers as well as La Verne residents.
Therefore, I am writing to urge you to take action and address this issue in a positive way and not remove the outdoor seating or patio on D Street. Your support will be crucial in bringing about change and ensuring that Cafe Wang Chinese Fusion & Bar is treated fairly and with dignity. We ask that you consider our request and take immediate action to make a positive change.
Thank you for your attention to this matter. We look forward to hearing from you soon.

Subject: Support for Cafe Wang's Patio Dining
Dear City of La Verne Council,
I am writing to express my enthusiastic support for Cafe Wang's patio outside dining area, which has become a beloved feature of our community. The ambiance created by the cafe is nothing short of nostalgic, particularly with the enchanting lights that adorn the space at night. These lights, coupled with the performances by locally hired bands, cultivate a warm and inviting atmosphere that stands out in our city.
Cafe Wang's patio dining goes beyond merely providing a place to eat; it offers a unique experience that enriches our community life. The space is more than just a memory or an escape from parking spaces; it's a vibrant part of our social fabric. The welcoming environment fostered by the cafe encourages community interaction, making it a place where residents can gather, relax, and enjoy quality time together.
I believe that Cafe Wang's patio dining area is a valuable asset to our community, contributing significantly to the charm and character of La Verne. It's an inviting haven that enhances our city's appeal and provides a meaningful space for communal engagement.
Thank you for considering my perspective on this matter. I hope that the city will continue to support and celebrate such valuable local establishments.
Sincerely,
Chantal Munoz

The patio at a Cafe Wang gives downtown La Verne some more energy. They have bands play often, and they want to do more to bring the community together. I do not think taking up 3 parking spaces is going make a difference to the parking downtown, and though I know some customers have complained to other business business owners, I have not had any complaints about the patio. In fact, I've heard multiple times how they enjoy having live entertainment. I believe forcing Cafe Wang to take this patio down will be a huge disservice to downtown La Verne and its patrons.

To whom it may concern,
It has been brought to my attention that the city council in conjunction with the City of La Verne is l1aving issues with Cafe Wang's outdoor dining area located at 2316 D Street. The issue is the • approved dinning area located outside of the restaurant and the amount area and parking space area it is encroaching onto. Being a fellow restm:rant owner and operator, times where very tougti . during the pandemic and the city allowed the construction of the Q!Jtdoor dining area.
Cafe Wang is a great addition to tt1e city ot La .Verne downtown dinning s6n. The owners are great people, and tt,e food is outstanding. I would urge the city council to readdress the apprnval of the outdoor dinning area that the city allowed them to construct.
I have always supported the city of La Verne and abided by their decisions in the success·ot the city, but I do feel strongly that you have to reconsider the removal of their outside dining area you have allowed Cafe Wang to maintain and operate at their own expense.

Dear Mr. Scherer,
I am writing in support of Cafe Wangs petition to continue with their outdoor dining and entertainment area.
I first fell in love with the city of La Verne in general, and it's old downtown area specifically, when I attended La Verne University's bar review program in 1988 in preparation to take the California State Bar exam. I loved the quaintness of the area surrounding the university and the "old town" feel of the little downtown area.
After passing the bar exam, my wife and I moved to the Alta Loma area where we lived for 27 years. During those 27 years we frequently returned to the downtown area to dine, enjoy a glass of wine and to walk through the downtown area and the university campus.
When we became "empty nesters", we decided to downsize, and our first , and really, the only choice, was La Verne near the downtown area. We were fortunate enough to find the house that fit our criteria just down the street from downtown . That was over 4 years ago, and we have not regretted our decision .
While there are several "old downtown areas" in neighboring cities, our downtown is special in that it is small, quaint , safe, yet vibrant and cozy at the same time . Although the pandemic was a horrible part of our recent past, it did have a silver lining in that the downtown restaurants, out of necessity, began outdoor dining service. In my opinion that improved the ambience and overall enjoyment of the downtown experience. The addition of outdoor live entertainment just sent that experience through the roof. It is wonderful to sit outside on a nice evening, enjoying a good meal or drink while listening to music provided by our local talent .
Cafe Wang has been a leader in this regard. They have carved out a small refuge for members of our community to enjoy a safe night out without having to travel long distances- my wife and I can walk there. Their patio area is comfortable, well-constructed and thoughtfully designed to enhance the appearance of the downtown area, as well as provide an enhanced dining experience to its customers . Based on my observations , Cafe Wang did not skimp on the construction of their outdoor area, it is of solid const ruction with the attention to detail required for this type of endeavor. The fact that it is large enough to allow for live entertainment is, in my Council Agenda Packet, June 17, 2024
opinion, the icing on the cake. What the outdoor area of Cafe Wang's brings to the downtown area inures to the benefit of the entire community, not to mention the other businesses located there.
In addition to my chosen profession, I am a part-time musician and have had the opportunity to play on the patio with my band, Code-4, on numerous occasions and plan to continue to do so in the upcoming months. In that regard, I have personally observed, more than once, vehicles drive by, stop, and take a seat on the patio to listen to music, have a drink or a meal.
I have to believe that those folks will return to the downtown area and perhaps try one of the other fine restaurants there, simply because Cafe Wang's outdoor area caught their attention.
While I understand that the parking issue is a consideration, I believe that the overall benefit that the outdoor dining area brings outweighs the detriment caused by the loss of a few parking spaces.
I highly encourage those in the position to make the appropriate findings, to allow Cafe Wang to continue to provide a safe and enjoyable venue where all of La Verne's citizens can unwind and release the stress of the day. Since it's creation, my wife and I always look forward to spending time at Cafe Wang's outdoor venue to have dinner on a Friday or Saturday evening, while listening to musical performers. We would miss this outdoor experience terribly were it not available in the future .
Thank you very much for your consideration.

Dear City of La Verne Council ,
l am writing this letter of support for you to consider allowing Cafe Wang to keep their outdoor patio beyond the initial two year term agreement. l write this letter not on behalf of the University of La Verne, but as someone who has partnered with Cafe Wang and as a supporter of local businesses . I am a supporter of this business because of their willingness to partner with the Office of Student Engagement and Leadership at the University of La Verne. Fang and Ken are always looking for opportunities to partner with us whether it is participating in the annual Old Town La Verne Business Dinner Crawl or sharing fundraising opportunities with our student organizations. They are innovative in the way that they want to help elevate their business and grow their connections with the whole La Verne community .
I believe that the outdoor patio is a part of their vision to continue growing their business and attract customers to come and dine at their restaurant. This outdoor patio feeds into their ambiance of their restaurant and provides the opportunity for further elevating the dining experience. Rather than having Cafe Wang customers dine on the sidewalk of D street, Fang and Ken saw the vision of elevating the dining experience to having an outdoor patio. l believe that this outdoor patio helps overall enhance the Old Town La Verne D street experience just as I have experienced it being a customer of the downtown area of Glendora.
I am aware of the parking concerns, but l know that allowing this outdoor patio will outweigh the opportunities that this can bring to Cafe Wang and future local businesses in that area. I highly recommend that you allow the outdoor patio to remain a part of Cafe Wang to continue to help grow not only their business , but the Old Town La Verne D street experience.
Please feel free to contact me with any questions regarding my endorsement.
Sincerely,
Cindy Vallejo-Victoria

Re: Cafe Wang Patio
Dear City of La Verne,
Office of Financial and Business Services
Old Town La Verne is lined with vibrant restaurants and small businesses that depend on the support of La Verne residents and visitors. Students, Faculty, and Staff from the University of La Verne are dedicated and recurring customers for many of the D Street restaurants. This letter is in support of extending the outdoor patio permit for Cafe Wang. Al fresco dining became popular over COVID restrictions as such permits extended economic support to restaurants and benefits public health as customers have the option to enjoy social dining in an environment that could potentially reduce the risk of exposures of viruses such as coronavirus.
The University of La Verne is proud to support our local businesses and we are confident extending the outdoor patio permit for Cafe Wang will help support the economic success of their small business.
Sincerely,
~

To: Mayor Tim Hepburn and La Verne City Council
La Verne City Hall
Re: Cafe Wang Restaurant Patio, 2316 D Street, La Verne Dear Mayor Hepburn and Members of the City Council,
June 6, 2024
I am writing to encourage your support for Cafe Wang Restaurant in Old Town and to grant them a 2-year extension for their outdoor patio to the end of 2026. The patio was installed in response to Covid requirements, with City financial assistance. Cafe Wang views their patio as a critical tool to their success, and that removal this year or next may very well result in the restaurant's closure.
I have been a resident and customer of Old Town La Verne since my days as a college student in 1973, through my career with the City of La Verne beginning in the 1980's , including service on the La Verne Planning Commission, and retirement from a 40-year City Planning career in 2017. I have seen some of the good times for business in Old Town, and some of the bad. Old Town La Verne was a "ghost town' in the seventies, has enjoyed a resurgence as well as further challenges, and I have learned we must do all we can to protect quality business in Old Town. It is very hard to recover from business failure and vacancy. Cafe Wang is a quality business, with devoted owners, that deserves our help to continue its success.
The Old Town La Verne Business Improvement District (0810) has recently voted (3-2) to require removal of Cafe Wang's outdoor patio by
the end of 2024. It was approved
during the pandemic to February 2024. City staff had recommended a further one-year extension through 2025: -- -
Cafe Wang has been a welcome addition to Old Town La Verne since opening in 2018.
Fang Wang and Ken Valmonte are likeable and responsible business owners, have been active participants in the Business Improvement District, and are regular participants in Old Town and Chamber of Commerce activities.
Unfortunately their business, like most, has had struggles since the pandemic, with high labor costs being the most recent and challenging. The last year has seen a 35% drop in sales. But Cafe Wang is committed to regaining their success. They are optimistic about further growth as the A-Line (Gold Line) light rail begins operation to La Verne.
Council Agenda Packet, June 17, 2024
And they continue to fund well-received live entertainment on Friday and Saturday nights.
Some have noted the patio does not seem very well used. But annually the patio accounts for approximately 25% of the restaurant's patronage, and use typically grows significantly as warmer summer weather arrives.
I would offer that Cafe Wang has been a quality addition to Old Town La Verne, and that it deserves the opportunity to rebound from recent struggles. The patio occupies only three (3) parking stalls. But the restaurant is too important to La Verne to risk its failure.
I encourage your continued support of the restaurant, and approve the patio to remain throu~h 2026.
Thank you.
Sincerely ,
Retired Community Development Director

Dear Mr. Scherer,
I'm contact ing you in regards to the patio at Cafe Wang, and it's pending removal in December.
The outdoor patio is a big drawing point for many clients, including my family.
The business climate has been nothing short of a hit or miss for many restaurants, and the removal of the patio could be detrimental to the business.
We need to ask ourselves, what's good for La Verne? What's good for Cafe Wang? Sincerely,

As a small business owner in downtown La Verne I make an effort to support the community. I often patronize or recommend local businesses whenever possible. It has recently been brought to my attention that Cafe Wang wishes to continue their patio dining on D Street. I support this decision, I don't feel the loss of the three parking spaces will have a significant impact on my business.

Please do not remove the patio In front of cafe wang. It is a nice place to sit outside and enjoy the evening and the live music they have on weekends. It would be a shame to lose this, it's become a gathering place that everyone enjoys. The restaurant has been very active with the city, doing the Wine Walk every year, and they provide a great addition to the community. Thank you!

_ __ As an Old Town La Verne Business lm_provemenJ: District bus.iness.owner,J am writing to express my concerns regarding the potential permanence of the Cafe Wang patio on D street blocking three parking spaces.
While I did not object to the temporary patios for restaurants during the COVIDC- 19 pandemic, as we were all striving to keep our businesses afloat, the situation has now changed. The pandemic is over, and other businesses should not continue to shoulder the burden of losing three valuable parking spaces every 90 minutes. The permanent structure for Cafe Wang's patio takes up three parking spaces that are crucial for the vitality of all businesses in the Old Town District.
Cafe Wang already has a large dining area inside, and if they wish to continue with outdoor dining, they have space behind their restaurant. Additionally, they have the option to emulate the House of Wings patio situation by using their own business footprint and not significantly disrupt or impact other businesses.
This issue was surveyed with the Downtown Business District owners, and I understand 80% were opposed to the continued patio structure. Furthermore, there was a vote at the Old Town La Verne Business Improvement District meeting, and it was 3 votes against and 2 votes in favor. I would like to ------point out the two supporting votes were fro-m rion-businessowners~ the unTversffy representative ifnd- Craig Walters, the Chair.
I respectfully request a no vote on allowing the patio to become a permanent structure, and recommend it be removed to restore the parking spaces that are essential for the overall health of all our downtown businesses.
Thank you for your consideration.
Sincerely,

Agenda Report
DATE: June 17, 2024
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council
FROM: Christy Lopez, Finance Director
SUBJECT: RESOLUTION ADOPTING THE FISCAL YEAR 2024-25 BUDGET
SUMMARY
During the City Council Budget Study Session on June 3, 2024, staff presented a proposed balanced budget to the City Council. This budget maintains the existing level of general services, resulting in total appropriations of $103,577,770 across all funds. Adopting the attached Resolution will officially approve the Fiscal Year 2024-25 budget.
RECOMMENDATION
That the City Council adopt a Resolution approving the Fiscal Year 2024-25 Operating Budget and appropriating $103,577,770 to cover expenditures across all funds.
DISCUSSION
The total appropriations for Fiscal Year 2024-25 are $103,577,770. These proposed expenditures cover all City and Fiduciary funds. Public services for residents and visitors will largely remain at high levels, although greater scrutiny is being placed on ensuring that ongoing expenditures are consistent with ongoing revenues. With a continued escalation of expenditure levels against stagnant or slightly increasing revenues, Staff will continue to monitor City expenditures and will seek to align services to be more efficient given the limitations on future revenue projections.
The proposed budget includes $13.3 million for Capital Improvement Projects (CIP) and $853,500 for total Capital Outlay expenses. Over $7.6 million of the CIP will fund transportation projects such as street improvements on B Street (from Bonita to Foothill), Arrow Highway enhancements, and annual pavement improvements. Other projects include $3.6 million for water system improvements or replacements and over $385,000 for park improvements, including the Heritage Park Gazebo and Oak Mesa Park playground equipment.
Fiduciary activities, funded by the Los Angeles High Intensity Drug Trafficking Area (LA HIDTA) and the Los Angeles Interagency Metropolitan Police Apprehension Crime Task Force (L.A.
Impact), account for over $8.4 million.
The projected General Fund expenditure is $49 million, a 3.54% increase or $1.7 million more than the estimated year-end figures for Fiscal Year 2023-24. Operational costs have risen by
8.52%, reflecting inflation and contractual increases. Personnel costs have increased by 5.25%, including merit and negotiated salary increases, an Unfunded Accrued Liability (UAL) increase from $10,000 to $730,000 (general fund portion), and a 1.7% benefit increase, alongside decreases in Workers Comp (7%) and in the CalPERS Normal Cost resulting from the Cost

Resolution Adopting the Fiscal Year 2024-25 Budget, Page 2
Share recently approved by Classic members in three of the City's four bargaining units and all the City's unrepresented staff (5%).
General Fund revenues, including $500,000 of one-time revenues, are expected to be $47.8 million, a decrease of 0.53% or $253,000 when excluding one-time revenues from FY 2023-24 year-end estimates. This decrease includes increases in property taxes ($617,000), refuse charges ($60,000), and sales taxes ($113,000), offset by decreases in Fire Department service charges ($35,000) and utility user taxes ($57,000). The largest decrease is in transfers, with current year transfers totaling $9,889,015, a reduction of $545,460 from prior year transfers due to adjustments in overhead utility costs currently under third-party review.
To balance the FY 2024-25 budget, the City will use $1.18 million of assigned fund balance.
While using prior year fund balances is not ideal, the City Council has prudently saved for such purposes. The required fund balance reserve, 20% of the City’s General Fund budget, remains intact. The anticipated fund balance, excluding the restricted balance which can only be utilized for pension stabilization for FY 2024-25, is expected to be 25% of proposed appropriations, well above the 15% emergency contingency recommended by best practices and within the City’s Fund Balance Policy.
During the study session on June 3, Department Directors presented their budget sections for Council discussion. Departments identified unfunded operational and capital outlay expenditures. Operational expenditures were reduced to align with historical figures, and some unfunded capital outlay expenditures were moved to the current fiscal year to be purchased with projected savings.
The City Manager and City Council will continuously evaluate the budget throughout the year.
The City will control expenditures, overtime, and unexpected costs while closely monitoring revenue streams. Staff will update the City Council on any revenue changes or additional funding sources, allowing for budget modifications as needed.

Adoption of the Fiscal Year 2024-25 Proposed Budget will appropriate $103,577,770 in expenditures within the various City and Fiduciary funds.

TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council
FROM: Meg McWade, Public Works Director
SUBJECT: FIRST READING OF AN ORDINANCE AMENDING THE MUNICIPAL CODE
RELATED TO REFUSE CONTAINER STORAGE
SUMMARY
First reading of an ordinance updating the Municipal Code adding language to enable the enforcement of removal of refuse containers from public rights-of-way in a timely manner.
RECOMMENDATION
That the City Council hold a First Reading of an ordinance updating Municipal Code Chapter
13.28.160 "Maintenance and placement of containers" by adding language to ensure timely removal of containers from public rights-of-way.
DISCUSSION
In 2020, staff amended the Municipal Code to reflect necessary changes to accommodate Senate Bill 1383, the State's organic waste and recycling requirements. This was done through a "repeal and replace" action, which inadvertently resulted in the section addressing the storage of refuse containers being deleted. Due to this deletion, the City can no longer ensure the removal of these containers from public rights-of-way in a timely manner.
The proposed ordinance remedies the deletion by adding a section to the Municipal Code that restricts the locations and time frames that refuse containers are stored in the public rights-of- way. Staff proposes adding language to Chapter 13.28.160, as follows:
"E. No container shall be placed adjacent to or in a street or public right-of-way for collection service more than 24 hours prior to the normal collection time, and all containers so placed shall be removed from the street or right-of-way by noon on the day following collection."
It is recommended the City Council hold the first reading of the ordinance amending the Public Services Refuse Collection section of the Municipal Code to enable timely removal of containers from public rights-of-way.

There is no direct fiscal impact associated with this item.

2 EXCERPTS FROM THE CITY OF LA VERNE STRATEGIC PLAN
Excerpts from the City of La Verne Strategic Plan
Adopted May 2016
OUR MISSION
The City of La Verne strives to maintain a full range of efficient municipal services to preserve our hometown charm and quality of life while being resp onsive to the community’s current and emerging needs.
STRATEGIC VALUES
Service – Our primary purpose and driving force is to deli ver a variety of services and programs that meet basic human needs, including but not limi ted to, the protection of life and property, the provision of clean water, and the operation of sani tation systems. We also strive to proactively provide a wide variety of high quality services that directly impact quality of life within the community in an effective, efficient, economical and friendly manner.
Hometown Virtues – Openness, accessibility, courtesy, community par ticipation, volunteerism, a sense of heritage, and service with a “personal tou ch” that makes us unique in the vast Southern California metropolitan area. It is by design that our organizational structure is efficient and, by prevailing standards, relatively unbureaucratic. We strive to preserve that hometown charm while we continue to evolve and grow.
Quality of Life – Beyond the provision of high quality services to satisfy basic human needs, we are concerned with quality of life issues that affe ct all members of the community. Concern for quality of life encompasses, but is not limited to, protection of the environment, sound infrastructure, safety, community aesthetics, access to education, and community and personal leisure activities.
Responsiveness – Responsiveness includes responding to the ever-e volving needs of a diverse community and is key to citizen satisfaction. Community participation is encouraged and solicited.
Feedback from citizens is welcomed and thoughtfully evaluated in the formation of public policy.
Sound Leadership – Effective leadership and management of the organ ization is contingent on the competence and the active participation of the City Council, the City Manager, and the respective Department Heads. Sound leadership pres upposes the quality of trustworthiness, integrity, and honest representation by all elected and appointed City officials while maintaining transparency through the decision-making.
Prudent Financial Management – We embrace a tradition of fiscal conservatism th at calls for prudent spending and maintenance of a sufficient ge neral fund reserve to cover unanticipated expenditures. We strive to be proactive in finding innovative fiscal alternatives that enable us to continue to find creative means of funding the evolving needs of the community.
Teamwork – The concept of teamwork is vitally important to the successful delivery of services.
Joining forces and pooling resources in a common ef fort is the rule and not an exception.
Teamwork extends beyond the City Council and City d epartments to partnerships with outside agencies including commercial and community organiz ations which work jointly to provide a network of services within our community.
City of La Verne | Proposed 2024-25 Budget
3 EXCERPTS FROM THE CITY OF LA VERNE STRATEGIC PLAN
Pride – As an organization we strive for and recognize e xcellence on a personal, organizational, and community level. The “Pride of La Verne” is no t just the name on an orange crate label from our heritage, but a feeling of community involvement and commitment. This standard of excellence extends to the thousands of hours of volunteerism a nd employee commitment that support the delivery of services in the community including pub lic safety, senior services, education, social services, and more.
SETTING OUR PRIORITIES
As confirmed in the 2016 workshop, being a full-service city that provides a full range of municipal services to the community in the most cost-effectiv e manner is paramount to our identity. While much value is placed in doing what is necessary to maintain that standard, there are also other issues of concern that will affect the organization and as such, require our consideration.
Providing service is our primary objective and we will aim to ensure we can effectively provide the breadth, level, and full range of services that wil l meet the community’s current and future needs.
We will achieve that by:
Understanding the community needs
Proactive planning
Providing financial stability
Hiring and retaining quality personnel
During the workshop, departments presented a list o f priority issues that had potential impact to their respective operations and required council direction. Collectively, Department Heads and the City Council members reviewed each item and consoli dated the list to three priorities that were deemed to be most significant to the organization. After evaluating possible outcomes, the City Council identified a preferred alternative for each. Following that, the group developed and agreed on the steps necessary to achieve each goal, which are detailed in the following implementation plans. It is important to note that since the prefe rred alternative only establishes general direction to staff, subsequent council actions will be required as necessitated by each.
STATEMENT OF STRATEGY
Our direction for the future is rooted in:
Being a “Full Service” City – Services are provided through a combination of internal departments staffed by City of La Verne employees and contracts with outside entities. The basis for this method of operation is the belief that City departments an d employees are often more responsive to the needs and concerns of the community. A high level of responsiveness and commitment to the community translates into a superior level of service and a better quality of life for the citizenry.
Concern over Finances – The threat of insufficient financial resources t o pay for services and maintain infrastructure is an overriding issue of c oncern. Prudent financial management, wise economic development, and innovative management practices may balance this threat.

4 EXCERPTS FROM THE CITY OF LA VERNE STRATEGIC PLAN
Expansion of Services – Maintaining and enhancing the City’s level of hi gh-quality service delivery will be our challenge. Continuing and exp anding levels of service with an already “lean” organization will require all facets of our organiz ation to work together as a team and to develop new and innovative service delivery techniques.

BUDGET MESSAGE
2024-25 Fiscal Year
Introduction
The Fiscal Year 2024-25 Operating Budget for the City represents a new approach to budgeting for the City and hopefully represents a change in how the City’s fiscal situation is communicated to the City Council and our residents. More importantly, the City as an organization and community at large needs to realize that our sources of revenue are becoming less flexible and, as such, our expenditures are bound by the new realities of diminished revenue gains and tightening sources.
The new approach in budgeting will lead to better understanding and participation by stakeholders, and ultimately better efficiencies in municipal operations. For the completion of this year’s budget, more staff throughout the organization were instrumental in assessing programs and revenue sources and from that, assessing how best to expend our sources of revenue in the most efficient and effective manner. The Finance Department in its entirety was involved in working with all Departments and, in turn, increased participation from Departments expanded the understanding of those involved and programs reviewed. This increased participation was above and beyond the normal duties of our City personnel and I greatly appreciate the enthusiasm towards this new process by staff. Hopefully, by more City staff better understanding the development of the annual budget, that understanding will lead to greater communication of fiscal issues with the public and a greater realization of how public services are funded and provided.
Summary
The following represents the proposed spending plan for Fiscal Year 2024-25 (FY 24-25) for the City Council’s consideration. Total requests for expenses, including General and Restricted funds, operational activities, capital improvement projects, internal service funds, transfers, fiduciary, and major equipment purchases, amount to $104.9 million. Expenses specific to the General Fund account for $49 million. Revenues and other transfers supporting these expenses are projected to be $47.8 million, indicating a decrease.
7 After careful consideration of available funds, this budget reflects the use of $1.2 million from a previously assigned fund balance related to benefit obligations to meet projected expenditures. A total of $200,000 in one-time departmental requests for capital outlay i tems were shifted to Fiscal Year 2023-24 using estimated year-end savings, reducing requests for FY 24-25.
Year-end estimates are more favorable than original ly anticipated for FY 23-24 due to unfilled vacant positions and savings within the Public Works depar tment, offsetting increased overtime costs for Inju ry on Duty (IOD). Consequently, it is anticipated that the General Fund balance will increase by roughly $200,000, reducing the $1.2 million of assigned fund balance needed to balance the budget.
The estimated balance of the General Fund reserve at the end of FY 24-25 should reach $12.1 million or better, excluding the restricted fund balance. This figure represents 25% of the City’s operational budget, exceeding the Council’s policy of 20% of expenditures.
Resources
Regarding major revenue sources, Sales Tax is antic ipated to increase by 2% over the prior year, which is below the historical average of 3-5% but better than the previous year, which was flat. Vehicle License Fee revenues are expected to be at or above the pri or year’s level, while Utility Users Tax is projected to decline by 1.3%, mainly in electric and telecommunications revenues.
Preliminary Property Tax valuations are expected to show a minor recovery over last year’s modest 2.3% increase, which should have resulted in a 6.6% incr ease but was reduced due to a correction. FY 24-25 estimates predict a 4%, or $600,000, increase over the prior year.
Building permits are down by $250,000 compared to last year and are anticipated to return to 2021 levels, below historical levels due to inflation and construction costs. Anticipated development increases with the new light rail transit are expected, but not within this fiscal year. Building permit activity fluctuates annually based on various factors.
Transient Occupancy Tax (TOT) revenues from short-t erm rentals like Airbnb are anticipated to increase by 40%, for a total of approximately $42,000. This steady increase has been observed since the City’s agreement with Airbnb to collect and remit the TOT on the City’s behalf began in fiscal year 2020.
Expenses
General Fund-supported activities are projected to cost $49 million, representing an increase of approximately $1.3 million compared to the previous year. A significant portion of this increase, amounting to $730,000 for the General Fund, is attributed to the unfunded accrued liability (UAL) expense associated City of La Verne | Proposed 2024-25 Budget
8 with the City’s retirement costs under CalPERS. These costs are subject to fluctuations based on CalPERS investment strategies, market performance, and othe r factors such as life expectancy and cost of livin g increases for retired members. In contrast, the pri or year’s UAL expense amounted to roughly $11,000, whereas the current year’s UAL exceeds $850,000 for all funds. Additionally, operational cost increase s stemming from inflation persist across every department, with no anticipated reduction in the near future.
Personnel
Future estimates released by CalPERS have revealed that the City will see continued increases in the UAL costs, with the amount leveling out at $2.9 in 2029. Upon receiving the report from CalPERS regarding future liability, the City consulted with an actuar ial firm. This firm examined the City’s unfunded li abilities and the pension stabilization fund, providing additional information using a forecast model. The model was used to verify CalPERS' estimates and determine a plan of action if they proved accurate.
The forecast model predicts that CalPERS is unlikely to meet its 6.8% rate of return or discount rate used in actuarial calculations. Instead, the consultant anticipates an average return of 6%, which would miss the target each year. If this prediction holds true, the City's liability and associated costs will increase annually, remaining uncertain until the actuarial report is released by CalPERS each August.
In 2019 the City Council established a 115 trust, a pension stabilization fund, with a current balance of approximately $4.3 million. The actuarial firm reco mmended utilizing this stabilization fund to smooth out UAL payments from fiscal year 2028-29 through 2039- 40, allowing the City to better plan for future expenses. The UAL costs over the next ten years are a great concern and will closely be watched for their impact on the General Fund expenditures.
Additionally, the City Council has negotiated with all employee groups, except the Fire Association, f or classic CalPERS members to begin sharing the cost o f the City’s retirement contributions. Effective Ju ly 1, 2024, classic members in participating groups wi ll pay 1% of the City’s contribution, with the City Manager contributing 2%. This cost-sharing arrangem ent will reduce the City's liability and result in members receiving credit for their additional contributions, which will benefit them upon retirement. Cost sharing of pension obligations are an extremely important sustainability tool and miscellaneous employees will now pay 9% towards their retirement costs and Police Safety members will pay 10%.
There were various personnel changes of positions funded with General Funds in Administration, Finance, Community Development, Police, Public Works, and Co mmunity Services. In many cases, due to the reduced revenues for FY 24-25, requests to add personnel were denied, deferred, or made into part-time positions due to workload considerations.
City of La Verne | Proposed 2024-25 Budget
9 The City Manager’s office transitioned from a full- time position to part-time and invested in technolo gy to assist with onboarding. This change will save a min imum of 2 hours of staff time per new hire by more efficiently having new hires conduct onboarding tasks online.
Finance has reduced staff by one position to provide cost savings in this challenging fiscal year. To mitigate the impact of this reduction, the department is str eamlining workflows and setting up processes to automate activities where possible. Additionally, the department is transitioning many workflows connected to the annual audit to an electronic platform, reducing the strain on staff during audits.
Community Development reduced the full-time Adminis trative Clerk position to part-time, providing cost savings while managing departmental needs with the downgraded position. Additionally, the department added an associate planner position and deleted an assistant planner position, providing promotional opportunities for current staff and shifting higher-level work to the elevated position.
Changes within the Police department include the ad dition of a Community Service Officer to assist wit h duties previously handled by the Community Services Supervisor, who was promoted but retained the original duties. A Police Lieutenant is being added to the investigations bureau to provide support to the officers within that unit. The department will also add an administrative clerk which will provide support to the management analyst position, which currently ha ndles all administrative, budget, accounts payable, and other duties for the department. The final pos ition change is an upgrade of the Communications Supervisor. This position will now oversee the records division which will relieve administrative duties from the lieutenants. The changes this fiscal year are the beginning steps of the police department’s utilization and staffing study that was presented to City Counc il in May 2024 which identified areas of focus for the department.
Public Works, through a review of departmental need s and existing vacancies, identified restructuring opportunities. Through this review the department has identified the upgrade of the Public Works Manager to a Deputy Director of Public Works. This new position’s scope of work has been expanded to include all functions of Public Works, which is a shift from the manager position. There are 2 additional upgrades, one within the Streets Division and one within the Water Division which will allow the Department to retain the existing employees who have institutional knowledge and whose loss would create strain on their divisions.
The sole addition is within the Streets Department and will be funded with Measure R funds. This position will provide more dedicated staff to address Street s’ concerns and be fully focused on streets. Some of the existing Streets Division workers have their duties split between Building Maintenance and Streets and having a dedicated staff member will provide some much-needed attention to continue the level of service the community enjoys.
City of La Verne | Proposed 2024-25 Budget
10 The final change is within the Community Services Department which is an upgrade of Administrative Clerk II to an Administrative Secretary. The position will continue to assist with onboarding and other specialized duties which would be more in line with the upgraded position.
It is important to note the personnel figures withi n the budget include increases in salary for all gr oups which are effective July 1. The increases included for the Fire Association range from 6 - 6.5%, due to the Memorandum of Understanding approved by the City Council on December 19, 2022, and which currently maintain the City’s past practice of setting compen sation to a defined “median” of selective agencies.
Police increases are 3% with all other regular full-time employees seeing a 2.5% increase. These increases are covered by the Measure LV revenues and the annu al transfer has been adjusted to reflect the increases.
Operational
There are a variety of changes to operational reque sts throughout the various departments, the notable increases are in costs as other changes balance out the differences with an overall increase of $384,000 across the General Fund. However, some of the chang es worth highlighting include: $786,450 decrease for the confidential informant payment that had a revenue offset; $372,239 in fleet replacement increases primarily within the Police Department for future v ehicle replacement; $386,314 in service contract increases primarily within the Parks Division, Stre ets Division, and Community Services Department as multiple contracts had reached the maximum number o f years and were required to be re-bid; and $227,000 in funding to cover the contractual refuse increase which is offset by revenue
Capital Outlay/Capital Improvement Projects (CIP)
Capital outlay across all funds totals $545,000. Of those expenses, $148,000 is supported by Measure LV and will be applied to the Tier II expenses. The Measure LV Oversight Committee, after reviewing requests from the Police and Fire Departments, identified multiple equipment items in their recommendation to City Council totaling $150,000. During the preparation of the budget there was an item identified by the Police Department as critical to their current operations which was on the Measure LV list. The Department was able to utilize savings in Fiscal Year 2023-24 to move forward with the purchase earlier and in turn shifted 2 other items to Measure LV.
There are two other funds with notable amounts. The Mobile Source Air Pollution or AB 2766 funds includes $84,000 of requests including 2 alternativ e fuel vehicles which would normally be funded with General Funds but can be shifted to the AB 2766 fun d as the equipment purchase will reduce vehicle emissions.
City of La Verne | Proposed 2024-25 Budget
11 Additionally, $140,000 is being requested for repla cement of 2 vehicles that have served their useful life and are both within the Police Departments fleet (F150 vehicle and outfitting and Honda Odyssey vehicle and outfitting).
This budget also includes authorization or confirmation of prior funding commitments for the City's Capital Improvement Projects (CIP) that require additional funding due to changes in the scope of the original project and or increased costs. The following table includes details for the additional $5.2 million, $3.4 million of which is for street improvements needed to complete projects that were originally proposed in prior fiscal years.

Infrastructure needs beyond 2025 consist of various projects totaling over $71 million. Major project s include the Arrow Highway Multi-modal Pedestrian Bridge which will provide a crossing from the new light rail station scheduled to open in calendar year 202 5 to the Fairplex. The bridge costs have increased drastically from the initial estimates due to infla tion and are now anticipated to cost roughly $23 mi llion, based on current estimates. The majority of the funding will be provided through grants and transportation funds and is fully funded after a recent $16 millio n award from the Southern California Association of Governments using funds from the federally funded S urface Transportation Block Grant. Other notable projects are over $9 million of street resurfacing projects which will continue to provide outstanding quality infrastructure within the City.
Measure LV Use and Projections
Measure LV is again a key component to presenting a balanced budget. It is anticipated that in the nex t year the amount needed to fund salary and benefit increases will be $3.9 million, or $900,000 greater than last year. The increase is included in the budget as the City completed negotiations with the groups at the time of budget adoption. Additionally, based on directions from the Measure LV Oversight Committee, $143,000 was identified as available for Tier II ex penditures of equipment from both the Police and Fi re Departments which provided a list and description o f the requested items. Through the budget process there was a minor shift in the projects that staff was recommending Council approve as part of the Measure LV budget due to changes in the need and priority o f some of the items. Presented within the Capital Outlay list is the continuation of funding for the Fire Explorer program, an Ambulance Stair Chair, Station 2 Ambulance Lockers, a Community Emergency Response Trailer, and Fire Hose. Additionally, the Police Department identified In-vehicle computers, 40MM launchers, and a Pole surveillance camera as needed equipment.
City of La Verne | Proposed 2024-25 Budget
13 There continues to be the need to monitor how Measure LV funding is expended due to it primarily funding increased compensation for employees. While revenu e from Measure LV is better than originally estimated, with the coming year expected to generat e $5.1 million, the uses of the revenue will soon exceed its ongoing generation. Based on historical trends, and provided excess amounts in the early years are set aside as designed, the revenue stream is pr ojected to accommodate these added salary and benefit costs through Fiscal Year 2028-29. Measure LV revenues and expenditures are being closely tracked, as expenditures for employee compensation and benefits are projected to surpass revenues in Fiscal Year 2026-27, at which time the fund balance will start to be drawn from. Unless expenditures are brought in-line with revenues for the long-term, to include judicious use of the fund balance, Measure LV will be unable to provide the necessary revenue to keep the City’s pay at a level traditionally deemed competitive against comparable agencies for future personnel and Tier II expenditures by the mid-2030's.
Financial Forecast
As La Verne enters the FY 24-25, its financial landscape is shaped by a combination of factors that reflect both opportunities and challenges. The City's fiscal health remains a priority, influenced by various revenue streams, expenditure trends, economic conditions, and long-term goals.
Rising inflation, fluctuating unfunded liabilities and personnel costs will require the City to take a holistic evaluation of our existing service model. Key to this effort will be a strategic planning session, scheduled for this fiscal year, which will focus on the City’s financial future. This focus will require the participation of all stakeholders in the City: the City Council, City employees, and importantly, the public. During a strategic planning session, priorities will be set for programs and projects that can be matched to available funding in order to ensure that community priorities are kept, and service levels can be maintained if revenues fall short of projected expenditure needs.
Revenues – Our revenue base, though diversified, fa ces constraints from reduced property turnover, reliance on non-big box retail, and a lack of available land open to new development. Key revenue sources are Sales Tax, Property Tax, Vehicle-in-Lieu Fees, and Utility Users Tax, collectively contributing $2 7.3 million. This combination provides resilience again st minor variations, though we project a plateau in revenue generation from Sales Tax due to concerns over a moderate recession and ongoing inflation.
In addition to the primary revenue sources, the Cit y maintains an assortment of supplementary revenue streams, some intrinsically linked to corresponding expenses (such as community service programs and permit inspection), which provides a strategic meas ure for optimal cost management. With the exception of building permits, which fluctuate with the development activity occurring in the City, our revenue sources do exhibit a resilience against external shocks, but remain relatively flat due to our stable, but small retail City of La Verne | Proposed 2024-25 Budget
14 base. Of particular note, the forthcoming integrati on of the Metro “A” Line (formerly Gold Line) stati on is hoped to help provide an anchor to increase our financial strength over the foreseeable horizon.
Some revenues, such as transfers, fluctuate with ch anges in state laws, court cases, and re-aligning o f practices to meet industry standards. For example, a notable change this year is the overhead transfe r (administrative costs) from the Water and Sewer uti lity, which is under review to determine the cost o f support provided by the General Fund to the enterpr ise funds. A preliminary review has resulted in a tentative $1.4 million reduction in the transfer, pending a finalization of the third-party review.
Reserves –
The preservation of funds for specific purposes, as well as unrestricted or emergency purposes, is a best practice promoted by the Government Finance Officer s Association (GFOA). The City has fortunately maintained a healthy reserve status for many purpos es and continues to examine its practices for designating reserves and seeking to increase key reserves to ensure fiscal sustainability.
Affordable Housing: The City maintains a healthy designated reserve of $4.2 million for affordable housing and homeless prevention purposes. The City is exploring options for using portions of this reserve for affordable housing opportunities in needed area s as well as focusing allowable funding to assist w ith efforts to work on homeless prevention.
Utilities & Storm Drains: While these funds are presenting a $4.8 million fu nd balance the totals have been reduced by the unfunded liability obligation t hat is “on the books” in the amount $5.6 million.
Enterprise funds vary from governmental funds as th ey are considered a business type and financial reporting requires the full obligation to be included within the books resulting in a decreased fund balance.
While this additional obligation reduces the overall fund balance it's crucial to address a current imbalance in the water and sewer operating accounts. Expenditures in these accounts surpass the revenue collected from operating fees, which demands attention to mai ntain the necessary reserves for infrastructure improvements. A request for proposals was issued in the beginning of the calendar year with finalization of the consultant anticipated before the end of the fiscal year. The study is anticipated to conclude in January 2025 with presentation of the results to Council for review.
Equipment/Vehicles Replacement: An allocated sum of $2 million ensures necessary u pgrades and replacements for essential equipment and vehicles, enhancing operational efficiency.
Road Work and Street Repair: A dedicated fund of $7 million allows us to consis tently address road maintenance, enriching the overall infrastructure of our City, which is one of the City’s greatest assets.
City of La Verne | Proposed 2024-25 Budget
15 Park Development: The City’s park system is another asset that needs resources to improve and modernize amenities based on desired use by residen ts. The recent example of new pickleball courts receiving tremendous support is one example of the need for continuous improvement of our current parks.
However, the Park Development Fund faces potential depletion, raising concerns about improving our City's parks. The present development fee is inadeq uate to cover the expenses of growing infrastructur e projects in new developments, necessitating a revie w for adequacy. A development impact fee study is underway to review all development fees and address the impact new construction has on the existing parks by potentially adjusting the current fee which has not been adjusted since 2006.
The focus on distribution of reserves underscores o ur steadfast dedication to the long-term well-being of our community. It strategically positions us to navigate unforeseen challenges effectively and capitalize on emerging opportunities, thus reinforcing the City's resilience and progress.
During the budget process, the assigned fund balance was further detailed to better reflect the City's needs.
Previously, most of the assigned fund balance was a llocated for benefit obligations, in case the City had to fulfill all obligations for sick and vacation us e on the books. A review of historical sick and vac ation usage, totaling approximately $800,000 per year, informed a more precise allocation strategy. As a result, the assigned fund balance has been divided into spe cific categories to ensure a minimum of one year's benefit obligations, plus adequate reserves, are co vered. Those categories for assigned fund balances includes:
- Workers Compensation: $500,000
- Capital Projects: $500,000
- Litigation/Legal: $250,000
- Benefit Obligations: $1.1 million
This refined allocation of reserves highlights our commitment to fiscal responsibility and positions u s to maintain financial stability, support crucial initiatives, and sustain essential services for our community.
Expenditures – La Verne continues to allocate resources towards essential services such as public safety, infrastructure maintenance, and administrative func tions. Managing personnel costs, including salaries and benefits, is a key focus, with prudent expendit ure controls maintained across all departments.
Balancing service quality and cost efficiency is a priority for long-term sustainability.
5-year Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) – the 5-year Capital Improvement Planning (CIP) process, initiated nearly a decade ago, has enhanced the City's capaci ty to strategize for vital infrastructure undertaki ngs and facility repairs. This endeavor streamlines pro ject prioritization and offers pragmatic preview of City of La Verne | Proposed 2024-25 Budget
16 financial capabilities. Prior notions of ample reso urces for forthcoming projects have been challenged by the escalated costs of construction across all sect ors, leading to a reduction in the number of feasib le projects.
Drawing from identified needs, there exists capacit y to address certain outlined projects up to 2029.
However, it becomes imperative to shift our attenti on to alternative funding channels like grants and collaboration with local legislators. Multiple grant and earmark funding opportunities have come to fruition in Fiscal Year 2023-24. Most notably a $1.5 million earmark from California State Assembly Member Chris Holdens office for improvements at Las Flores Park. Larger major improvement projects, such as the need to replace the current Public Safety Building, will be reviewed and may have some planning conducted for such projects, but at this time are not within the City’s ability to fund or finance.
Pension Obligation Bond (POB) – One of the most piv otal actions shaping our City's current situation was the issuance of the $55 million Pension Obligation Bond (POB). This strategic move allowed us to eliminate a growing payment on our payment for the unfunded a ccrued liability (UAL) with CalPERS. Although this step didn't eliminate future UAL (as explained below), it provided substantial relief from CalPERS' payment schedule. According to their calculations, our annu al contribution was projected to exceed $7 million, a financial burden that would have strained our budge t and necessitated severe service cuts. Due to the POB, the payment for the prior UAL obligation is no w capped at $3.4 million, leading to savings of ove r $30 million due to a more favorable interest rate. This approach enables us to plan for this anticipated and constant cost instead of grappling with an expense projected to surpass our revenues.
115/OPEB Trust – To fortify ourselves against poten tial retirement-related financial challenges, the C ity has established a trust account earmarked for future expenses in this area. Currently, approximately $4.7 million is set aside for upcoming CalPERS payments, and an additional $6.6 million is designated for current and future retiree medical benefit obligations. These amounts are supplementary to the previously mentioned fund balances.
Since the last budget year, CalPERS unfunded liabil ities have dramatically shifted, with obligations n ow far exceeding assets. The City's net position shift ed from a $21.4 million asset in 2021 to a $16.6 mi llion obligation by the end of 2023. This shift reflects a $38 million swing in pension liabilities, anticip ated to continue due to poor CalPERS investment performance.
Therefore, these resources are crucial to alleviate the impact of future payments on our ability to fund other operational necessities. To alleviate future paymen t impacts, it is recommended to defer using the 115 Trust until subsequent years, allowing the account to grow through investment.
Consequently, there is no planned use of the 115 Trust in the FY 24-25 budget.
City of La Verne | Proposed 2024-25 Budget
17 Measure LV – The approval of Measure LV marked a significant milestone in bolstering our City's financial stability. By approving Measure LV and directing it s benefits toward employee salary and benefits enhancements, we have successfully maintained our c ompensation strategy thus far. However, revised projections indicate that by the Fiscal Year 26-202 7, the increases in salary and benefits supported b y Measure LV will outpace revenue growth. This trend will result in the depletion of surplus reserves designated for these expenses in the years following 2030.
Our competitive compensation practices have assiste d the City in attracting and retaining highly skill ed and dedicated individuals who contribute to our community. Future labor negotiations will need to evaluate Measure LV's ability to consistently fund salaries and benefits in the long term, however. Without thi s measure, we face a difficult choice: either continue with our current approach and compromise programs or services to accommodate salary increases or chan ge this practice and focus on other tactics to reta in employees, continue to hire skilled employees, and offer an attractive work environment. The downside is the risk of losing experienced employees to other organizations to the detriment of public services.
For instance, in the upcoming year, $3.9 million fr om the ¾ cent sales tax revenue will be allocated t o cover the combined costs of salaries and benefits. Without this revenue, we would face a deficit or be forced to significantly reduce services and improvements to balance the budget.
Given these circumstances, and assuming our commitm ent to sound financial management remains steadfast, we can be well-equipped to meet both cur rent and future community needs. It is essential to continue upholding strong fiscal sustainability pri nciples and practices. This foundation enables us t o navigate unforeseen challenges and adapt to emerging situations adeptly.
Conclusion
Starting my second year in La Verne, I am deeply gr ateful for the City Council's leadership and the dedication of City staff who ensure our residents a re served with respect and efficiency. Maintaining our quaint, family-oriented values and promptly address ing residents’ needs is a shared goal among all Cit y employees. Delivering high-quality service and making necessary improvements to keep our City beautiful and well-maintained is neither simple nor inexpensi ve. Therefore, a strong commitment to sustainable practices and efficient, transparent public service s is essential. Providing our residents, businesses , and visitors with a full range of services, including City-provided Police, Fire, and emergency medical response, is a significant challenge for a city of our size a nd commercial capacity. Additionally, addressing me ntal health issues, supporting unhoused individuals, and managing state-mandated, unfunded programs and regulations further complicate running a small, family-focused city in California. However, these challenges City of La Verne | Proposed 2024-25 Budget

BUDGET MESSAGE
The Finance Department serves as the backbone of fiscal support for all city departments, carefully managing expenditure and revenue data through budge ting and accounting procedures. Our department records every financial transaction of the city, spanning accounting, payroll, cashiering, and collection services. Additionally, we enforce b udgetary controls across all departments and oversee essential administrative tasks such as busi ness licensing, short-term rental permits, regulatory permits, and tobacco licenses.
Moreover, our responsibilities extend to crucial fi nancial functions, including cost analysis for negotiations, comprehensive financial reporting such as the City’s annual financial report, and the execution of various financial and compliance audits. Furthermore, we diligently manage the city's investment portfolio in accordance with state laws and city policies, ensuring optimal returns while maintaining prudent risk management practices.
In the fiscal year 2022-23, our department's purvie w expanded to include fiduciary duties for the Los Angeles High Intensity Drug Trafficking Areas ( HIDTA), complementing our existing responsibilities for the Los Angeles Interagency Me tropolitan Police Apprehension Crime Task Force (L.A. IMPACT). These fiduciary activities hav e injected an additional $285,000 into our budget, facilitating the hiring of an additional Accountant since fiscal year 2022-23.
Despite our achievements, the demands on the Financ e Department continue to escalate, particularly in the realms of analysis, forecasting , audits, and reporting. While we had initially planned to recruit an Accountant specializing in bu dget management, grant administration, and analytics, unforeseen financial challenges forced u s to abandon this initiative. Nevertheless, our dedicated staff is adapting to the heightened workl oad by optimizing processes, enabling us to effectively meet the evolving needs of our organization and fulfill our fiduciary obligations.

BUDGET MESSAGE
The La Verne Fire Department continues to provide “all-risk” emergency services, sustainably and efficiently, to those who live, work in, and visit the City of La Verne. To ensure that continuity of high performance, LVFD completed a comprehensive strategic planning process in 2023. That process has provided our next 5-year roadmap and began with LVFD reinventing itself with a new mission, a new forward vision and a new set of values.
Our mission is to be a highly professional organization, who serves the current and emerging needs of those who live, work, and visit our community. W e are committed to responsibly safeguarding lives, property, and the environment through industry-leading emergency response and community engagement. Our vision is for us to be regionally r ecognized as a progressive, innovative, and dynamic organization which strives for excellence i n all aspects of emergency response through collaboration with our community and surrounding ag encies. Our identifying values are integrity, accountability, teamwork, compassion, and professio nalism. Collectively, these defining parameters proved to be integral in this fiscal year’s budget creation.
The 2024-2025 budget indicates a 5.4% increase in operating costs, which is primarily the result of economic inflationary costs and a mandatory LA regi onal communications interoperability subscription. An overall 4.4% increase in personnel costs remains the result of the current LVFA labor MOU. Conversely, department cost recovery eff orts continue to be strong and effective, resulting in close to 12% return on investment.
The department also strives for better accountabili ty and more comprehensive cost-recovery. In December 2022, La Verne Fire implemented a “first of its kind” auto aid agreement with Los Angeles County. The agreement includes La Verne Fire Depar tment ambulances, thereby increasing ambulance transport revenue and better operational equity to our cooperating partners. While this will increase call volume for LVFD resources outsid e of city limits, it also guarantees a comprehensive automatic aid response for multi-unit complex emergency incidents within La Verne.
Fire suppression staffing remains consistent with 3 stations, 2 Paramedic Engines, a Paramedic Quint and 2 basic life support (BLS) ambulances. Th e department will be fully staffed leading into FY 24/25, further reducing back-fill costs as compared to FY 23/24. The total personnel count will consist of 35 sworn fire suppression personnel, 15 non-sworn full-time EMT, administration and CRR personnel and 5 non-sworn retired annuitant pos itions. The 2022 LVFD Community Risk Assessment and Standards of Cover provided several recommendations, many of which have already been implemented. As a result, the current deployment, both operationally and administratively, is objectively proven to be sufficient.
A standout priority in the past fiscal year was the investment in equipment and training for our Urban Search and Rescue (USAR) program. This included acquiring a utility terrain vehicle (UTV), a vital asset that has now empowered us to extend our searc h and rescue skills not only to our local community but also to the broader statewide network through the Master Mutual Aid System.
By strategically prioritizing the acquisition of th e UTV and comprehensive training, we've fortified our capabilities to respond swiftly and effectively to emergencies, whether they're in our backyard or across the state.

BUDGET MESSAGE
The La Verne Police Department remains steadfast in its commitment to ensuring the safety and well-being of our community members while fostering stronger connections with residents and businesses. We recognize the importance of addressing quality-of-life issues, particularly those affecting our unhoused population, local businesses, and the broader community. We are dedicated to finding effective solutions in collaboration with various stakeholders.
Our department's budget reflects a service-driven approach, underscoring our commitment to the community through efficient and effective operations. The 2024-2025 budget indicates a 6.4% increase in personnel costs, primarily due to increased costs in employee benefits and pay. An overall 9.5% increase in operating costs is primarily driven by economic inflation, which includes higher costs for state-mandated training, travel expenses, and per diem rates.
To this end, we are proud to announce the official launch of the SGV CARE Team, a multidisciplinary effort involving City personnel, Tri-City Mental Health, LA CADA, and our own police personnel. This team is focused on addressing the needs of the unhoused population and improving our city's overall quality of life. As part of our ongoing efforts, we are looking to gradually expand our staffing levels to ensure the sustainability and effectiveness of this program.
In addition to our homeless outreach initiatives, our motor officer continues to prioritize traffic safety through enforcement and education efforts. We understand that traffic concerns are a significant issue for our residents, and we are committed to reducing collisions and improving road safety.
Another key initiative for the upcoming fiscal year is the Business Assistance for Crime Reduction (BACR) program, which aims to support businesses in La Verne by enhancing their security measures to reduce smash-and-grab style burglaries and other crimes. The BACR program is crucial for fostering a safer business environment, which not only protects local businesses but also promotes community safety and economic stability.
The main objectives of the BACR program include:
• Infrastructure Development and Technological Integration: Implementing crime prevention strategies that do not require increasing personnel but focus on making environmental and technological improvements to deter criminal activities. • Educational Outreach and Support: Providing resources and information to businesses about effective security measures and the benefits of participating in the program. This includes offering assessments and guides on how to implement Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design (CPTED) principles. • Financial Assistance: Offering financial incentives such as discounts and reimbursements for security enhancements, including advanced glazing films, security cameras, and possibly physical barriers like bollards.

However, it is important to acknowledge our staffing challenges, particularly in our Patrol Division. Despite intensified recruitment efforts utilizing social media and other modern channels, we still encounter difficulties due to a shortage of qualified candidates. As a result, overtime remains necessary to maintain operational effectiveness.
Looking ahead, the department is dedicated to addressing these staffing challenges while also enhancing community engagement and outreach efforts. We have implemented various programs to facilitate dialogue and strengthen the bond between law enforcement and the community we serve.
Furthermore, fiscal responsibility remains a top priority for us. We have developed a comprehensive succession plan to ensure the continuity of our operations, which includes ongoing training for personnel to adapt to changes in legislation and exposure to diverse assignments. Additional staffing resources have been allocated in our budget to meet internal operational needs and external community concerns, including public safety recruitment, homeless outreach, community engagement, and training.
In conclusion, the La Verne Police Department is fully committed to providing top-tier public safety services while being prudent stewards of taxpayer dollars. We are dedicated to enhancing our service to the community, building stronger relationships, and addressing the evolving needs of our city.
