City of Laguna Hills
City Council / Planning Agency
Staff Report
Date: April 28, 2026
To: Mayor and Council Members
From: Eric Hendrickson, Finance Director
Issue: Treasurer's Investment Report for March 2026
Recommendation: That the City Council receive and file the Treasurer's Investment Report for the month of March 2026.

Background:

The Treasurer’s Investment Report for the month of March 2026 is submitted herewith.

The City’s total portfolio as of March 31, 2026, was $27,709,903. The pooled cash portfolio managed by the City Treasurer consisted of cash on hand, demand deposits, State Local Agency Investment Fund (LAIF) and Investment Trust of California (CalTRUST) investments and totaled $27,615,690. Restricted cash and investments totaled $94,213, and is composed of fiscal agent funds for Civic Center property management purposes.

Interest income for the month of March was $86,726. Fiscal Year 2025/2026 year-todate pooled cash interest earnings of $825,289 are 99% of the annual budget of $828,600.

The average yield on the City’s total portfolio for the month of March was 3.75%, compared to the prior month of 3.81%. The slightly declining yield in March, as compared to the past few months, reflects a cautious approach by the Federal Reserve to continue rate cuts given the current status of the economy. The City has budgeted conservatively in its expectation of interest earnings, and has built slight rate reductions into the revenue forecast.

Yields (%)
The performance data quoted represents past performance. Past performance does not guarantee future results and current performance may be lower or higher than the performance data quoted above. The investment return and principal value of your investment will fluctuate so that your shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. You may obtain performance data current to the most recent month-end by visiting invesco.com. The SEC yield listed reflects fee waivers and/or expense reimbursements in effect for the period. Had the Adviser not waived fees and/or reimbursed expenses, your 7-day SEC yield would have been 3.50%. Average annual total returns reflect reinvested distributions, net of expenses for the periods. The 7-day SEC yield more closely reflects the current earnings of the fund than the total returns shown. 30-day simple and simple monthly yield are the sum of
the distribution rates for the number of days in the yield period annualized by 365 and divided by net asset value (NAV).

This does not constitute a recommendation of any
investment strategy or product for a particular investor. Investors should consult a financial professional before making any investment decisions.

Item No. 4.5
City of Laguna Hills
City Council / Planning Agency
Staff Report
Date: April 28, 2026
To: Mayor and Council Members
From: Eric Hendrickson, Finance Director
Issue: County of Orange Law Enforcement Services Agreement Recommendation: That the City Council approve the agreement with the County of Orange for the provision of law enforcement services for Fiscal Year 2026/2027 and authorize the Mayor to execute the contract on behalf of the City.

Background:

The City of Laguna Hills contracts annually with the Orange County Sheriff’s Department (OCSD) for municipal law enforcement services. These services are provided under agreement with the County of Orange, which outlines the specific staffing, scope, and cost structure for the fiscal year. The attached agreement includes all relevant provisions and exhibits referenced below.

For FY 2026/2027, the proposed contract includes the following:
• Contract Term: July 1, 2026 through June 30, 2027
• Scope of Services: Law enforcement services include patrol, traffic enforcement, investigations, a school resource officer, parking control, and emergency management coordination. Details are provided in Attachment A of the contract (Scope of Work).
• Staffing Level: The contract provides for 28.33 full-time equivalent (FTE) direct positions, including:
o 1 Captain
o 2.33 Sergeants (Admin and Patrol)
o 16 Patrol Deputies
o 2 Motorcycle Deputies

Item No. 4.5
o 2 Investigators
o 1 School Resource Officer
o 3 Community Services Officers
o 1 Sr. Emergency Management Program Coordinator
• Additional support is provided through regional/shared staffing teams as outlined in Attachment C of the contract (Level of Service).
• Technology and Equipment: The contract includes the provision and maintenance of Body Worn Cameras (BWC), In-Car Video (ICV) systems, Mobile Data Computers (MDCs), and E-Citation units. These are discussed in Attachment A of the contract.
• Traffic Violator Apprehension Program (TVAP): The City’s continued participation in OCSD’s TVAP is authorized through Attachment E of the contract, aligning with City Council Resolution No. 2024-09-10-3.
• Office Space: As in prior years, the City provides dedicated office space, utilities, and custodial services at no cost to the County, as described in Attachment A of the contract.

Fiscal Impact:

ATTACHMENT

POLICY FOR DISTRIBUTION OF FORFEITED AND SEIZED ASSETS

BACKGROUND
The Orange County Sheriff’s Department provides contract law enforcement services to cities in Orange County. Because of the increased likelihood that contracted patrol or investigation personnel may become involved in significant narcotic seizures, which could affect law enforcement services provided by the Sheriff’s Department to contract cities, the following policy is in effect.

CONTRACTED PATROL AND INVESTIGATION OFFICERS
When assets (cash or property) are seized in CITY by contracted patrol or investigation personnel, and subsequently forfeited to COUNTY’s Sheriff Department, hereinafter referred to as “SHERIFF”, the forfeited assets shall be shared with CITY as set forth below, for the purpose of augmenting law enforcement services in CITY, subject to guidelines by the forfeiting agency of such sharing and use of forfeited assets. A portion of forfeited assets may be retained by SHERIFF, to pay for departmental expenses not recovered through law enforcement contracts.

In such cases, pursuant to the forfeiting agency’s guidelines, SHERIFF shall apply to the forfeiting agency for the return of a share of assets. In his application, SHERIFF shall specify the percentage of shared assets returned to SHERIFF that will be used to augment law enforcement services in CITY and the use of said assets by CITY.

In those cases in which assets are seized within CITY by personnel assigned to CITY pursuant to this Agreement, without the involvement of other law enforcement personnel, and in which the seizure is a result solely of activities self-initiated by SHERIFF personnel assigned to CITY or initiated by said personnel in response to calls for service within CITY, SHERIFF shall apply to have all of the assets used to augment CITY law enforcement services.

In those cases in which SHERIFF personnel assigned to CITY pursuant to this Agreement play an ancillary role in a seizure or in which other law enforcement personnel are involved in a seizure, SHERIFF shall determine the percentage of the total forfeited assets for which he will apply to augment CITY’s law enforcement services. This determination will be based on the circumstances of the seizure, including the pro-rata involvement of all personnel, including those assigned to CITY.

Each seizure will be evaluated on an individual and independent basis, and said evaluations will be available for review to CITY’s manager. Examples of those incidents which would be evaluated as set forth in this section include situations in which a contract patrol deputy provides uniformed backup at a SHERIFF’s Narcotic Bureau search warrant location or in which contract investigators participate in the service of a search warrant that was initiated by non-contract law enforcement personnel.

Assets (cash or property) that are returned to SHERIFF by the forfeiting agency with the understanding that they will be used to augment CITY law enforcement services shall be used by CITY and SHERIFF only for such purposes. If the forfeiting agency attaches additional or more specific conditions to the use of said assets, CITY and SHERIFF shall also abide by those conditions. SHERIFF and CITY’s manager shall determine the specific use of said assets within the conditions imposed by the forfeiting agency.

Issue: Informal Bidding Ordinance Use Quarterly Report for Public Works Projects Recommendation: That the City Council receive and file the report.

Background:

On October 24, 2023, the City Council adopted an Ordinance adding Chapter 3-36 (Informal Bidding – Public Projects) to Title 3 (Revenue and Finance) of the Laguna Hills Municipal Code to provide informal bidding procedures in accordance with the Uniform Public Construction Cost Accounting Act.

Chapter 3-36 reduces contract award process time, improves the timeliness of project completion, reduces paperwork, and simplifies overall project administration for “public projects” more than $5,000 and up to $200,000. “Public projects” are defined to include: construction, reconstruction, erection, alteration, renovation, improvement, demolition, and repair work involving any publicly owned, leased, or operated facility.

This definition also includes painting or repainting of any publicly owned, leased, or operated facility (Public Contract Code Section 22002).

During the discussion of the adoption of the Ordinance, City Council directed that City staff prepare a quarterly report for City Council review of the use of Chapter 3-36 for public projects that were let by negotiated contract. Under Chapter 3-36, the City Manager may let public projects of $60,000 or less by negotiated contract. Public projects over $60,000 up to $200,000 may use a streamlined procedure for bidding, but the contract must be awarded by City Council.

Attached is a list of public projects during the most recent quarter (for the period of

Item No. 4.6
January 1 through March 31, 2026) let by negotiated contracts between $5,000 and $60,000.

Fiscal Impact:

The public projects during the most recent quarter let by negotiated contracts totaled $136,983.36. The attached report details the account numbers from which each invoice was paid. Sufficient budget was available in each account number for the work.

To: Mayor and Council Members
From: Joe Ames, Assistant City Manager
Issue: Alicia Parkway Regional Traffic Signal Synchronization Project (RTSSP) Cooperative Agreement
Recommendation: That the City Council authorize the Mayor to sign the "Cooperative Agreement by and between the City of Laguna Niguel, and the Cities of Aliso Viejo, Laguna Hills, and Mission Viejo for the Alicia Parkway Regional Traffic Signal Synchronization Program Project."
Background:

The Orange County Transportation Authority’s Regional Traffic Signal Synchronization Program, Project P, provides funding for multi-agency, corridor-based signal synchronization and signal operational improvements for intersections on the Orange County Master Plan of Arterial Highways (MPAH).

On November 14, 2023, the City Council authorized City staff to submit a jointapplication with the cities of Laguna Niguel, Aliso Viejo, Mission Viejo to the Orange County Transportation Authority titled the “Alicia Parkway Regional Traffic Signal Synchronization Project” for signals on Alicia Parkway. The Resolution is attached. The traffic signals included in the grant application include all traffic signals in Laguna Hills from Ramona Street to Interstate 5.

The grant application was successful. In Spring 2024, OCTA funded the Alicia Parkway RTSSP, from Rustic Oak in Mission Viejo to Crown Valley Parkway in Laguna Niguel. The project corridor is approximately 10.5 miles long and spans four agencies, crossing both the 1-5 freeway and the SR-73 toll road, and includes 60 traffic signals, 9 of which are located in Laguna Hills. A vicinity map is attached. The project is currently in the design

Item No. 4.9
phase.

This project aims to replace failing traffic signal detection cameras, and install vehicle radar detection, signal controller upgrades, fiber optic communication, emergency vehicle preemption, battery back-ups and miscellaneous traffic signal support equipment.

Now, Laguna Hills needs to execute a Cooperative Agreement with the City of Laguna Niguel, as the project lead, to implement the project. Signatory names will be updated during the Agreement electronic routing execution process.

CEQA Findings:

The operation and maintenance of existing highways and streets is categorically exempt under the California Environmental Quality Act pursuant to Section 15301(c) of the CEQA Guidelines, Cal. Code of Regs, Title 14, Chapter 3.

Fiscal Impact:

The approximate costs of the project are shown below:

Item No. 6.1
City of Laguna Hills
City Council / Planning Agency
Staff Report
Date: April 28, 2026
To: Mayor and Council Members
From: Eric Hendrickson, Finance Director
Issue: Adoption of Comprehensive Fee Schedule for Fiscal Year 2026/2027 Recommendation: That the City Council:
1) Conduct a public hearing; and
2) Adopt a Resolution entitled: "A Resolution of the City Council of the City of Laguna Hills, California, Establishing and Adopting Updated Development Processing Fees and Other City Rates, Charges, and User Fees for Various Governmental Services and Finding that the Action is Statutorily Exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Per Section 15273 of the CEQA Guidelines and Public Resources Code Section 21080(b)(8)."
Background:

Pursuant to the provisions of the California Constitution and the laws of the State of California, the City is authorized to adopt and implement fees, rates, and charges for municipal services, provided that such fees, rates, and charges do not exceed the estimated reasonable cost of providing such services. A city has the authority to impose fees, rates, and charges under its police power. User fees in California are required to conform to the statutory requirements of the California Constitution, Proposition 218 and the California Code of Regulations, including Government Code 66000 et seq. By law, user fees may not exceed the estimated reasonable cost of providing the services for which they were levied, unless approved by a two-thirds vote of the electorate.

At the April 8, 2025, City Council meeting, the City Council adopted Resolution 2025-04- 08-03. This resolution approved a recently completed fee study and adopted an updated

Item No. 6.1
fee schedule based upon that study. Section 7 of that resolution authorized annual increases to the fee schedule based upon a consumer price index (CPI) factor. This is a common practice aimed at allowing revenues to keep up with expenses and the pace of inflation. The approved metric is the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) consumer price index for the month of March of the preceding, corresponding year for the Los AngelesLong Beach-Anaheim metropolitan area for all Urban Consumers. The applicable rate for March 2025 to March 2026 was 3.4%. With some exceptions, applicable fees on the attached schedule will increase by 3.4%. Also, it is important to note, there is an update to the parking permit fee to support programmatic enhancements, as well as minor cleanup language in the descriptions.

The California Government Code requires a minimum 60-day waiting period before new fees become effective. Therefore, with the proposed adoption of the attached resolution, these proposed fees are slated to become effective July 1, 2026.

Fiscal Impact:

By applying the CPI factor of 3.4% across most of the fee schedule items, the City expects increased revenue in the range of $35,000 to $45,000 annually. This increase in revenue is expected to offset the increase in expenses due to general inflation in the economy.

The City Council of the City of Laguna Hills, California, hereby finds, determines, declares, and resolves as follows:

WHEREAS, pursuant to the provisions of the California Constitution and the laws of the State of California, the City of Laguna Hills is authorized to adopt and implement fees, rates, and charges for municipal services; provided that such fees, rates, and charges do not exceed the estimated reasonable cost of providing such services; and
WHEREAS, the City retained Government Consulting Partners to review and conduct an independent, detailed analysis of City services, the cost reasonably borne by providing those services, the beneficiaries of those services, and the revenues produced by those paying fees for those services. Government Consulting Partners prepared a study and report, listing the applicable direct and indirect costs for certain services provided by the City, describing the reasonable relationship between fees, rates, and charges and the services provided by the City, and setting forth the time and method for payment of the fees, rates, and charges, which is identified as the “Comprehensive User Fee Study Report,” dated April 2025, copies of which are on file in the City Clerk’s office; and
WHEREAS, the City Council adopted Resolution 2025-04-08-03, establishing and adopting an updated fee schedule and authorizing future increases to applicable fees based upon annual Consumer Price Index inflation measures as prescribed by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics; and
WHEREAS, pursuant to Government Code Section 66014, 66017, and 66018, the specific user fees to be charged for certain services must be adopted by Resolution, following notice and Public Hearing; and
WHEREAS, notice of Public Hearing has been given pursuant to Government Code Section 6062a, oral and written presentations have been made and received, and the required Public Hearing has been held; and WHEREAS, the City of Laguna Hills desires to implement updated development processing fees and other user fees, rates, and charges for various governmental services provided by the City of Laguna Hills as set forth herein; and

Resolution No. 2026-04-28-X

WHEREAS, all legal prerequisites to the adoption of this Resolution have occurred.

NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF LAGUNA

HILLS, CALIFORNIA, DOES RESOLVE, DECLARE, DETERMINE, AND ORDER AS FOLLOWS:

SECTION 1. Adoption and Incorporation of Recitals. The recitals set forth above are true and correct and are incorporated by reference herein.

SECTION 2. Approval of Consumer Price Index Adjustment. The City Council adopted Resolution 2025-04-08-03, establishing and adopting a fee schedule based upon a Development User Fee Study dated April 2025, prepared by Government Consulting Partners. Section 7 of the aforementioned Resolution authorizes the City Council to increase applicable items in the fee schedule in accordance with the increase in the Bureau of Labor Statistics Consumer Price Index (CPI) for the month of the March of the preceding, corresponding year for the Los Angeles-Long Beach-Anaheim metropolitan area index for all Urban Consumers (or successor index). As determined by the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the CPI increase for the year ending March 2026 was

3.4%. Therefore, the City Council hereby determines and approves an increase in applicable fees by 3.4%.

SECTION 3. Adoption of User Fees. The City Council hereby approves and adopts the development processing fees and other user rates, charges, and fees set forth in the Comprehensive Fee Schedule, which is attached hereto as Exhibit “A” and incorporated herein by reference; the City Council finds that the user fees and charges established herein do not exceed the estimated reasonable cost of providing the service for which the fee is levied.

SECTION 4. Subsidized Fees. The City Council finds and determines that to promote public health, safety, and welfare, and to encourage members of the public to obtain required permits and inspections and to avail themselves of certain services, it is desirable and necessary to provide a general fund subsidy of certain user fees and charges. In furtherance of the policy, the City Council approves and adopts the subsidized user fees and charges set for in the Fee Study.

SECTION 5. Repeal of Conflicting Resolutions. Any and all provisions of prior Resolutions of the City Council establishing, adopting, or modifying user fees and charges for the specific services, programs, or products set forth in Exhibit “A” attached hereto are hereby repealed and replaced as of the effective date of the user fees and charges established herein; provided, however, that such repeal shall not excuse or affect the failure of any person or entity to pay any fee heretofore imposed upon such person or entity.

SECTION 6. Effective Date. The user fees and charges established pursuant to this Resolution shall take effect no sooner than 60 days following the adoption of this Resolution, pursuant to Government Code Section 66017. The effective date will be July 1, 2026.

Resolution No. 2026-04-28-X

SECTION 7. Annual CPI Update. The City Council hereby authorizes an annual increase to the fee schedule, for all fees and charges that can apply, established pursuant to this Resolution, commencing on July 1, 2026, and on July 1st of each fiscal year thereafter, in accordance with the increase in the Bureau of Labor Statistics Consumer Price Index (CPI) reported for the month of March of the preceding, corresponding year for the Los Angeles-Long Beach-Anaheim area for all Urban Consumers (or successor index). Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall this annual update be less than zero percent (0%).

SECTION 8. Environmental Exemption. The adoption of this Resolution is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) pursuant to Section 15273 of CEQA Guidelines and Section 21080(b)(8) of the Public Resources Code; and in accordance with such determination, City staff is hereby directed to file a Notice of Exemption upon adoption of this Resolution.

SECTION 9. Severability. If any user fee, rate, or charge adopted or increased by this Resolution is for any reason held to be invalid or unconstitutional by the decision of any court of competent jurisdiction, such fee, rate, or charge shall be deemed a separate, distinct, and independent provision of this Resolution, and such holding shall not affect the validity of the remaining user fees, rates, and changes adopted or revised herein. The City Council hereby declares that it would have adopted the Resolution and each section, subsection, subdivision, sentence, clause, phrase, or portion thereof, irrespective of the fact that any or more sections, subsections, subdivisions, sentences, clauses, phrases, or portions thereof be declared invalid or unconstitutional.

PASSED, APPROVED AND ADOPTED this 28th day of April 2026.

Technical Note
The Consumer Price Index (CPI) is a measure of the average change in prices over time in a fixed market basket of goods and services. The Consumer Price Index for Los Angeles is published monthly. The set of components and sub-aggregates published for regional and metropolitan indexes is more limited than at the U.S. city average level; these indexes are byproducts of the national CPI program. Each local index has a much smaller sample size than the national or regional indexes and is, therefore, subject to substantially more sampling and other measurement error. As a result, local-area indexes are more volatile than the national or regional indexes. In addition, local indexes are not adjusted for seasonal influences. NOTE: Area indexes do not measure differences in the level of prices between cities; they only measure the average change in prices for each area since the base period.

A full all-items data series history for the original index value and for 1-month, 2-month, 3-month, 6-month, and 12-month percent changes can be accessed via BLS data query tools. A direct link to the all-items series is provided in Table 1 of this release under historical data.

The Los Angeles-Long Beach-Anaheim, CA Core Based Statistical Area includes Los Angeles and Orange Counties in California.

City Council / Planning Agency
Staff Report
Date: April 28, 2026
To: Mayor and Council Members
From: Joe Ames, Assistant City Manager
Issue: Authority to Advertise for Construction, Park Improvements for Cabot Park, El Conejo Park, MacKenzie Park, San Remo Park, and Veeh Ranch Park, CIP 241
Recommendation: That the City Council: 1. Approve the plans and specifications for Park Improvements for Cabot Park, El Conejo Park, MacKenzie Park, San Remo Park, and Veeh Ranch Park, CIP 241; 2. Authorize the advertisement for bids for Park Improvements for Cabot Park, El Conejo Park, MacKenzie Park, San Remo Park, and Veeh Ranch Park, CIP 241; 3. Authorize the City Engineer to make minor edits to the plans and specifications as necessary prior to bidding; and 4. Find that environmental review is not required under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to the California Code of Regulations, Title 14, Chapter 3, Section 15301 as a Class 1 Categorical Exemption - “Existing Facilities."
Background:

On August 26, 2025, City Council held a Special Meeting to review conceptual park designs for Cabot Park, El Conejo Park, MacKenzie Park, San Remo Park, and Veeh Ranch Park as part of Capital Improvement Project No. 241, "Park Improvements." City staff presented a report with conceptual plans for park improvements, and a list of recommended improvements to each of the parks. The list included proposed "base bid" items, "additive bid" items, and items not recommended for inclusion in the park designs. After significant discussion, City Council approved City staff's list of recommended improvements as the basis for the final design effort. The relevant pages and the recommended improvements list included in the August 26, 2025, Special Meeting Agenda Report are attached.

Item No. 7.2.1
Since August 2025, City staff and the park design consultants, RJM Design Group, Inc. and David Volz Design (now called DVD Creative), have been working to complete final design plans for construction bidding. The park design plans and bid documents include "base bid" items and "additive bid" items that will allow for significant flexibility upon contract award.

Unfortunately, since August 2025, construction and material costs have continued to outpace general inflation measures. The park design consultants have generated new construction cost estimates that, when combined with the earmarks for playground surfacing rubber replacements at three other parks, exceed the available budget in Capital Improvement Project No. 241. However, inflation-hedging measures are available to reduce project expenses while allocating new funding sources to resolve any funding shortfalls. One potential cost-savings approach is for the City to purchase playground equipment and fixtures directly from the manufacturers, thereby limiting contractor markup and allowing project cost savings. One potential funding source is to allocate anticipated park fees from recently approved housing projects to this Project.

Additionally, the earmarks within Capital Improvement Project No. 241 for playground surfacing rubber replacements at the three other parks could be recognized in a separate capital improvement project, yet to be established. Estimated project costs are included in the attached spreadsheet.

The plans, specifications, and bid documents are now complete.

For record keeping, the City Engineer has assigned the following Capital Improvement Project sub-project numbers:

CIP 241-A: Cabot Park Rehabilitation Project
CIP 241-B: El Conejo Park Rehabilitation Project
CIP 241-C: MacKenzie Park Rehabilitation Project
CIP 241-D: San Remo Park Rehabilitation Project
CIP 241-E: Veeh Ranch Park Rehabilitation Project
For ease of review, the project plans were not inserted into the bid documents and specifications as doing so would create duplication in the agenda packet.

City staff recommends approval of the plans and specifications for the park improvements to allow for contractor bidding. Once bids are received, City staff will return to City Council with recommendations for project award. If the bids, in whole or in part, exceed the available budget in Capital Improvement Project No. 241, City staff will recommend which improvements should be awarded, if any playground equipment

Item No. 7.2.1
and fixtures should be purchased directly from manufacturers, and if any park fees not currently recognized should be allocated toward these projects.

Fiscal Impact:

The construction cost estimates and available budget is shown in the attached spreadsheet. The extensive information contained therein could not be imported into the City Clerk's agenda management software.

To summarize the spreadsheet, the estimated total construction cost for the five playgrounds, using the "base bid" construction cost estimates only, is $3,440,997.

Based on the encumbrances for design work and other associated costs, approximately $3,662,109 is available for construction. However, this assumes that no funding will be allocated for rubberized playground surfacing replacements at the Community Center, Mandeville Park, or Mendocino Park, which were originally identified as additional needs by the Public Works Department and to be included in CIP 241.

The attached spreadsheet shows options for cost savings related to direct purchase of playground equipment. City staff is also hopeful that the bids will come in under the construction cost estimates.

Fortunately, if the bids exceed the available budget and/or if City Council desires to construct any additive bid items, housing projects recently approved by the City Council are eventually expected to pay the following park fees, which could be used to fund any funding shortfall:
• Vesting Tentative Tract Map/Site Development Permit/Precise Plan/Conditional Use Permit/Parking Use Permit No. 0209-2025 (Terravita): $7,505,280 • Vesting Tentative Parcel Map/ Site Development Permit/Precise Plan/Parking Use Permit No. 0166-2023 (Oakbrook Plaza Senior Housing Project): $3,909,000 • Vesting Tentative Tract Map (VTTM)/Site Development Permit (SDP) No. USE0211-2025 (23161 Mill Creek Drive/Toll Brothers/Khoshbin): $562,896 Upon receipt of bids, City staff will recommend which improvements should be awarded, if any playground equipment and fixtures should be purchased directly from the manufacturers, and if any park fees not currently recognized should be allocated toward these projects.

To: Mayor and Council Members
From: Joe Ames, Interim City Manager
Issue: Review and Selection of Proposed Park Designs for Cabot Park, El Conejo Park, MacKenzie Park, San Remo Park, and Veeh Ranch Park, CIP 241 Recommendation: That the City Council approve City staff's recommended list of proposed renovations for Cabot Park, El Conejo Park, MacKenzie Park, San Remo Park, and Veeh Ranch Park, and authorize City staff to proceed with developing final design plans and specifications.

Background:

At the November 21, 2023, City Council meeting, City Council transferred all available Quimby Act Park In-Lieu funds to Capital Improvement Project No. 241, General Park Improvements. The Quimby Act Park In-Lieu funds, which are funds local developers pay as “in lieu” park fees, must be spent by the City on developing new parks, or rehabilitating or enhancing existing parks or recreational facilities/recreational amenities, and must be committed within five years of receiving the funding. The first $2 million allocation was received in July 2022, and the second $2 million allocation is expected to be received in April 2026. As such, it is imperative that the first round of funding gets committed and allocated towards construction contracts by July 2027.

As part of the November 21, 2023, City Council meeting report, City staff wrote that they evaluated all 14 of the City’s parks and prioritized proposed park rehabilitation and/or enhancement improvements, primarily focusing on the condition of existing playgrounds as the metric for prioritizing park improvements. Of the 14 parks, City staff chose eight (8) parks as the ones with the highest need for improvements based upon the age and condition of the existing playgrounds, and provided estimated budgets and recommended minimum scope of work at each park. Five of the eight parks were

Item No. 1
determined to need playground structure replacements: Cabot Park, El Conejo Park, MacKenzie Park, San Remo Park, and Veeh Ranch Park. Three more parks were identified as needing rubberized play surfacing replacements: Community Center/Dinosaur Park, Mandeville Park, and Mendocino Park.

On May 14, 2024, the City Council awarded Professional Services Agreements to RJM Design Group (RJM) for landscape architectural design services for Cabot Park, San Remo Park, and Veeh Ranch Park, and to David Volz Design Landscape Architects, Inc. (DVD) for landscape architectural design services for El Conejo Park and MacKenzie Park.

In August 2024, both RJM and DVD held two in-person public workshops at each park to elicit public input for potential park improvements. Additionally, during August 2024, both RJM and DVD conducted surveys for residents to provide comments and suggestions on park improvements that were then presented to the Parks and Recreation Commission at Special Meetings held on September 16 and September 18, 2024, and to the City Council at a Special Meeting on February 4, 2025. The public participated in and provided feedback at all meetings.

Based upon feedback from both the Parks and Recreation Commission and City Council, the consultants developed three (3) proposed conceptual park improvement designs that are "low," "medium," and "high" cost designs for each park. The "low" cost designs were expected to align with the available budget in CIP 241.

As part of the feedback received, City staff also understood that Cabot Park may benefit from additional value engineering to determine if the existing age 5-12 playground “super structure” (the upright posts) could be reused in order to potentially provide funding for the renovation of the existing adjoining restroom building, which City staff determined needs renovation. In October and November 2024, City staff worked with RJM to develop a scope and budget for this work but ultimately concluded that this additional scope of work would not be entirely offset by reusing the age 5-12 playground super structure. (However, as noted in the proposed recommended improvements, this additional work is recommended.)
With this additional information in mind, on May 28, 2025, the consultants presented at a Parks and Recreation Commission Special Meeting the proposed "low," "medium," and "high" cost conceptual designs for each park. City staff indicated that based upon the funding available, the "low" cost designs are within the available budget in CIP 241, if the April 2026 Quimby Act Park In-Lieu fees are included. The Parks and Recreation Commission provided feedback on the alternatives, recommending the "low" cost

Item No. 1
conceptual designs, but also recommending that City bid out some elements from the "medium" cost conceptual designs as alternative or additive bid items.

Since May, City staff reviewed the cost estimates provided by the consultants and further refined the scope of work for each park, identifying potential cost savings and additional improvements that could be bid out as alternative or additive bid items. City staff, RJM, and DVD are now bringing the conceptual park improvement designs before the City Council. City staff recommends that the City Council approve the recommended list of renovations for each park as the basis for final design efforts for each park. If approved, RJM and DVD will develop final design plans and specifications.

It is City staff's intention that items listed as "proposed additive bid items" also be included in the final design efforts and bid out. Dependent on the bid results, City Council may choose to include some of these additive bid items in the construction contracts. City staff will return to City Council with the final design plans and specifications for review and approval prior to authorization to advertise for bids.

Fiscal Impact:

CIP No. 241 (General Park Renovations) was active in fiscal year 2024/2025 with an appropriated budget of $2,248,209.68, which included $2,004,696.68 in Quimby Act Park In-Lieu fees and $243,513.00 in Park Equipment Reserve funding. The project is still active in fiscal year 2025/2026, and the City anticipates to receive $2 million of additional Quimby Act Park In-Lieu fees in April 2026. During the biennial budget process, the City Council allocated these funds towards CIP No. 241. This brings the total budget allocation to $4,248,209.68.

After factoring in the payments for design services to the consulting firms totaling $580,000 and reserving a portion of the budget for rubberized play surfacing replacements at the Community Center/Dinosaur Park, Mandeville Park, and Mendocino Park totaling $546,500, there is a projected unencumbered balance of $3,121,709 remaining for construction purposes.

While the "base bid" recommended list of park renovations totals $3,294,455 and exceeds the projected unencumbered balance for construction, it is City staff's and the consultant's opinion that there will be additional cost savings realized when bidding out all five parks at the same time. Alternatively, depending on the results of the bidding process, City Council may choose to fund rubberized play surfacing replacements at the Community Center/Dinosaur Park, Mandeville Park, and Mendocino Park using General Fund reserves thereby increasing the unencumbered balance for construction purposes for renovation of the five parks.
