15. Indemnity. Contractor shall indemnify, defend, and hold harmless the City and its officials, officers, employees, agents, and volunteers from and against any and all losses, liability, claims, suits, actions, damages, and causes of action arising out of any personal injury, bodily injury, loss of life, or damage to property, or any violation of any federal, state, or municipal law or ordinance, to the extent caused, in whole or in part, by the willful misconduct or negligent acts or omissions of Contractor or its employees, subcontractors, or agents, by acts for which they could be held strictly liable, or by the quality or character of their work. The foregoing obligation of Contractor shall not apply when (1) the injury, loss of life, damage to property, or violation of law arises from the sole negligence or willful misconduct of the City or its officers, employees, agents, or volunteers and (2) the actions of Contractor or its employees, subcontractor, or agents have contributed in no part to the injury, loss of life, damage to property, or violation of law.

The City and Contractor, in consideration of the mutual promises and covenants set forth herein, agree as follows:

1. The Project and Project Documents. Contractor agrees to construct the following public improvements (“work”) identified as:

Library, Bid Set ‘B’ (the “Project”)
The City-approved plans for the construction of the Project, which are incorporated herein by reference and prepared by Staff, are identified as:

Bid Set ‘B’, Library
The Project Documents include this Agreement and all of the following: (1) the Notice Inviting Bids, Instructions to Bidders, Bid Documents including Bidder’s Proposal as submitted by the Contractor, Contract Documents, General Specifications, Special Provisions, and all attachments and appendices; (2) everything referenced in such documents, such as specifications, details, standard plans or drawings and appendices, including all applicable State and Federal requirements; (3) all required bonds, insurance certificates, permits, notices, and affidavits; and (4) any and all addenda or supplemental agreements clarifying, amending or extending the work contemplated as may be required to insure completion in an acceptable manner. All of the provisions of the above-listed documents are made a part of this Agreement as though fully set forth herein.

2. Compensation.
a. For and in consideration of the payments and agreements to be made and performed by City, Contractor agrees to construct the Project, including furnishing all materials and performing all work required for the Project, and to fulfill all other obligations as set forth in the Bidder’s Proposal, such contract price being three million seven hundred fourty seven thousand nine hundred dollars and no cents ($3,747,900.00). 2 b. City hereby promises and agrees to employ, and does hereby employ, Contractor to provide the materials, do the work, and fulfill the obligations according to the terms and conditions herein contained and referred to, for the prices set forth, and hereby contracts to pay the same at the time, in the manner, and upon the conditions set forth in the Project Documents.
c. Contractor agrees to receive and accept the prices set forth in the Bidder’s Proposal as full compensation for furnishing all materials, performing all work, and fulfilling all obligations hereunder. Such compensation shall cover all expenses, losses, damages, and consequences arising out of the nature of work during its progress or prior to its acceptance including those for well and faithfully completing the work and the whole thereof in the manner and time specified in the Project Documents; and also including those arising from actions of the elements, unforeseen difficulties or obstructions encountered in the prosecution of the work, suspension or discontinuance of the work, and all other unknowns or risks of any description connected with the work.

3. Completion of Work.
a. Contractor shall perform and complete all work within 90 working days from the date of commencement specified in the Notice to Proceed, and shall provide, furnish and pay for all the labor, materials, necessary tools, expendable equipment, and all taxes, utility and transportation services required for construction of the Project. b. All work shall be performed and completed in a good workmanlike manner in strict accordance with the drawings, specifications and all provisions of this Agreement as hereinabove defined and in accordance with applicable laws, codes, regulations, ordinances and any other legal requirements governing the Project.
c. Contractor shall not be excused with respect to the failure to so comply by any act or omission of the City, the City Engineer, a City inspector, or a representative of any of them, unless such act or omission actually prevents the Contractor from fully complying with the requirements of the Project Documents, and unless the Contractor protests at the time of such alleged prevention that the act or omission is preventing the Contractor from fully complying with the Project Documents. Such protest shall not be effective unless reduced to writing and filed with the City within three (3) working days of the date of occurrence of the act or omission preventing the Contractor from fully complying with the Project Documents. d. City and Contractor recognize that time is of the essence in the performance of this Agreement and further agree that if the work called for under the Agreement is not completed within the time hereinabove specified, damages will be sustained by the City and that, it is and will be impracticable or extremely difficult to ascertain and determine the actual amount of damages the City will sustain in the event of, and by reason of, such delay. It is, therefore, agreed that such damages shall be presumed to be in the amount of $1,000 per calendar day, and that the Contractor will pay to the City, or City may retain from amounts otherwise payable to Contractor, such amount for each calendar day by which the Contractor fails to complete the work, including corrective items of work, under this Agreement within the time hereinabove specified and as adjusted by any changes to the work. 3 4. Changes to Work. City and Contractor agree that the City may make changes to the work, or suspend the work, and no matter how many changes, such changes or suspensions are within the contemplation of the Contractor and City and will not be a basis for a compensable delay claim against the City nor be the basis for a liquidated damage claim against the Contractor.

Any change to the work shall be by way of a written instrument (“change order”) signed by the City and the Contractor, stating their agreement to the following:
a. The scope of the change in the work;
b. The amount of the adjustment to the contract price; and c. The extent of the adjustment to the Schedule of Performance.

The City Engineer is authorized to sign any change order provided that sufficient contingency funds are available in the City’s approved budget for the Project. All change in the work authorized by the change order shall be performed under the applicable conditions of the Project Documents. City and Contractor shall negotiate in good faith and as expeditiously as possible the appropriate adjustments for such changes.

5. Bonds. Contractor shall provide, before commencing work, a Faithful Performance Bond and a Labor and Material Bond, each for one-hundred percent (100%) of the contract price in the form that complies with the Project Documents and is satisfactory to the City Attorney.

6. Non-Assignability. Neither this Agreement nor any rights, title, interest, duties or obligations under this Agreement may be assigned, transferred, conveyed or otherwise disposed of by Contractor without the prior written consent of City.

7. Licenses. Contractor represents and warrants to City that it holds the contractor’s license or licenses set forth in the Project Documents, is registered with the Department of Industrial Relations pursuant to Labor Code Section 1725.5, and holds such other licenses, permits, qualifications, insurance and approvals of whatsoever nature which are legally required of Contractor. Contractor represents and warrants to City that Contractor shall, at its sole cost and expense, keep in effect or obtain at all times during the term of this Agreement, any licenses, permits, insurance and approvals which are legally required of Contractor to practice its profession. Contractor shall maintain a City of Lake Elsinore business license.

8. Indemnity. Contractor shall indemnify, defend, and hold harmless the City and its officials, officers, employees, agents, the County and Board Supervisors, and volunteers from and against any and all losses, liability, claims, suits, actions, damages, and causes of action arising out of any personal injury, bodily injury, loss of life, or damage to property, or any violation of any federal, state, or municipal law or ordinance, to the extent caused, in whole or in part, by the willful misconduct or negligent acts or omissions of Contractor or its employees, subcontractors, or agents, by acts for which they could be held strictly liable, or by the quality or character of their work. The foregoing obligation of Contractor shall not apply when (1) the injury, loss of life, damage to property, or violation of law arises from the sole negligence or willful misconduct of the City or its officers, employees, agents, or volunteers and (2) the actions of Contractor or its employees, subcontractor, or agents have contributed in no part to the injury, loss of life, damage to
4 property, or violation of law. It is understood that the duty of Contractor to indemnify and hold harmless includes the duty to defend as set forth in Section 2778 of the California Civil Code.

Acceptance by City of insurance certificates and endorsements required under this Agreement does not relieve Contractor from liability under this indemnification and hold harmless clause.

This indemnification and hold harmless clause shall apply to any damages or claims for damages whether or not such insurance policies shall have been determined to apply. By execution of this Agreement, Contractor acknowledges and agrees to the provisions of this Section and that it is a material element of consideration.

REPORT TO CITY COUNCIL
To: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
From: Jason Simpson, City Manager
Prepared by: Damaris Abraham, Community Development Director Date: May 26, 2026
Subject: Professional Services Agreement with EPD Solutions, Inc. for the Environmental Documentation for the Dreamline Project
Recommendation
Approve and authorize the City Manager to execute a Professional Services Agreement with EPD Solutions, Inc. for the Dreamline project in an amount not to exceed $302,080.00 in such final form as approved by the City Attorney, and authorize the City Manager to execute change orders not to exceed a contingency amount of $30,200.00 for uncertainties and adjustments.

Background
The City of Lake Elsinore serves as the lead agency to evaluate the environmental impacts of development projects proposed within the City. The Community Development Department is responsible for the preparation of the necessary information and, depending on the scope and size of the project, will either prepare the environmental documents in-house or have a consultant prepare the documents and studies. The project applicant CBC Land Team through the application fee process pays for the cost of preparing the environmental analysis.

Discussion
The applicant has submitted an entitlement application for a mixed-use community development known as the Dreamline project located within the East Lake Specific Plan (ELSP). The project includes the following APNs: 365-030-008 through 015, -042, -043 and -047; 370-030-004, -006, -012; 370-040-004 through 007, -010, -011, -012, -013, -034, -036, -038, 040, 041-042;

370-070-001, -003, -006, -010; 370-120-001, -017, -058, and -063.

The project proposes an amendment to the Elsinore Lake Specific Plan (ELSP) to facilitate development of a mixed-use community across multiple planning areas within the project site.

The Specific Plan Amendment would allow for a range of land uses, including approximately 92.4 acres of light industrial development totaling up to 1,500,720 square feet of industrial building space, approximately 43.56 acres of residential development accommodating up to 391 dwelling units, and a Formula 1 racetrack complex that would include up to 480 condominium units on approximately 188.13 acres. The amendment would also provide for a commercial business park on approximately 38.87 acres supporting up to 670,000 square feet of mixed commercial uses, as well as expansion of the airport land use overlay zone across approximately 124 acres.

Implementation of the project would require several discretionary approvals including adoption of a General Plan Amendment, Specific Plan Amendment, tentative tract maps, and design reviews.

It is anticipated that the proposed application will require the preparation of an Environmental Impact Report (EIR). The project will require several technical studies to be prepared including Air Quality, Energy, Greenhouse Gas, and Health Risk Assessment, Noise and Vibration Assessment, Cultural Resources Assessment, Paleontological Resources Assessment, Phase I Environmental Site Assessment, Visual Impact Assessment, Geotechnical/Soils Evaluation, Utility/Services System Study, Vehicle Miles Traveled (VMT) Analysis, and Wildfire Protection Plan and Report. EPD Solutions, Inc. will utilize the above technical studies to prepare detailed analysis for the project as required by CEQA.

Fiscal Impact
The cost of preparing the environmental review will be paid by fees collected from the developer through the City’s cost recovery program. All staff administrative time and consultant costs are paid from the applicant’s fees. No General Fund budgets will be allocated or used for the completion of the CEQA documents for the project.

Page 5 ends

by this Agreement or any other source of income, interest in real property or investment which would be affected in any manner or degree by the performance of Consultant’s services hereunder. Consultant further covenants and represents that in the performance of its duties hereunder no person having any such interest shall perform any services under this Agreement.

Consultant is not a designated employee within the meaning of the Political Reform Act because Consultant:
a. will conduct research and arrive at conclusions with respect to his/her rendition of information, advice, recommendation or counsel independent of the control and direction of the City or of any City official, other than normal agreement monitoring; and b. possesses no authority with respect to any City decision beyond rendition of information, advice, recommendation or counsel. (FPPC Reg. 18700(a)(2).)

12. Professional Ability of Consultant. City has relied upon the professional training and ability of Consultant to perform the services hereunder as a material inducement to enter into this Agreement. Consultant shall therefore provide properly skilled professional and technical personnel to perform all services under this Agreement. All work performed by Consultant under this Agreement shall be in accordance with applicable legal requirements and shall meet the standard of quality ordinarily to be expected of competent professionals in Consultant’s field of expertise.

13. Compliance with Laws.
a. Consultant shall comply with all local, state and federal laws and regulations applicable to the services required hereunder, including any rule, regulation or bylaw governing the conduct or performance of Consultant and/or its employees, officers, or board members.

Consultant represents and warrants to City that it has the licenses, permits, qualifications, insurance and approvals of whatsoever nature which are legally required of Consultant to practice its profession. Consultant represents and warrants to City that Consultant shall, at its sole cost and expense, keep in effect or obtain at all times during the term of this Agreement, any licenses, permits, insurance and approvals which are legally required of Consultant to practice its profession. Consultant shall maintain a City of Lake Elsinore business license.

15. Indemnity. Consultant shall indemnify, defend, and hold harmless the City and its officials, officers, employees, agents, and volunteers from and against any and all losses, liability, claims, suits, actions, damages, and causes of action arising out of any personal injury, bodily injury, loss of life, or damage to property, or any violation of any federal, state, or municipal law or ordinance, to the extent caused, in whole or in part, by the willful misconduct or negligent acts or omissions of Consultant or its employees, subcontractors, or agents, by acts for which they could be held strictly liable, or by the quality or character of their work. The foregoing obligation of Consultant shall not apply when (1) the injury, loss of life, damage to property, or violation of

Page 6 ends

law arises from the sole negligence or willful misconduct of the City or its officers, employees, agents, or volunteers and (2) the actions of Consultant or its employees, subcontractor, or agents have contributed in no part to the injury, loss of life, damage to property, or violation of law. It is understood that the duty of Consultant to indemnify and hold harmless includes the duty to defend as set forth in Section 2778 of the California Civil Code. Acceptance by City of insurance certificates and endorsements required under this Agreement does not relieve Consultant from liability under this indemnification and hold harmless clause. This indemnification and hold harmless clause shall apply to any damages or claims for damages whether or not such insurance policies shall have been determined to apply. By execution of this Agreement, Consultant acknowledges and agrees to the provisions of this Section and that it is a material element of consideration.

PROJECT OVERVIEW
Project Name:

Dreamline at Lake Elsinore CEQA
Project Location:

City of Lake Elsinore, CA
Managing Jurisdiction:

City of Lake Elsinore
Proposed Services:

Environmental Planning & CEQA Compliance
April 30, 2026
Dear Damaris,

Thank you for inviting EPD Solutions, Inc. (EPD) to submit this proposal for California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) services. It is our understanding that the City of Lake Elsinore is seeking assistance with environmental review for the proposed amendment to the Elsinore Lake Specific Plan (ELSP) to facilitate development of a mixed-use community, including industrial, residential, commercial, motorsports, and open space land uses, along with associated infrastructure improvements. Based on the scope and scale of the proposed project, EPD proposes to prepare a project-level Environmental Impact Report (EIR) to evaluate the potential environmental effects associated with implementation of the Specific Plan Amendment. The EIR will assess both project-specific and cumulative impacts, identify feasible mitigation measures and alternatives, and support informed decision-making in accordance with CEQA. Noteworthy considerations that set EPD apart include:
• Local Knowledge. The EPD team has extensive experience working in the City of Lake Elsinore on a variety of projects, including similar industrial projects. Through our extensive experience, EPD’s team has familiarized itself with the City’s General Plan, Municipal Code, and history of land use decisions. This experience makes the team uniquely capable of providing CEQA peer review services for the proposed project.
• Environmental Documentation Experience. EPD’s staff has completed hundreds of documents in compliance with CEQA, including projects similar in scope to the proposed project. These documents have included CEQA exemptions, addenda, mitigated negative declarations, and environmental impact reports for a wide array of projects, including residential development, small- and large-scale commercial and industrial facilities, master plans, and General Plans. With this background, we are able to bring to the City an experienced team of seasoned reviewers. • Senior CEQA Experts and Project Management Team. EPD brings to the City an experienced team skilled in complex projects and knowledgeable about CEQA standards and expectations. The EIR preparation would be managed by principal-level staff, who would be available as required to attend in-person meetings or conference calls with City staff to ensure information exchange is smooth and any issues that arise are resolved quickly. We also have an in-house traffic engineer, in-house noise expertise, and senior air quality and greenhouse gas expertise.

Thank you for your consideration.

Sincerely,

EPD Solutions, Inc.

METHOD OF APPROACH

PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The proposed project consists of an amendment to the Elsinore Lake Specific Plan (ELSP) to facilitate development of a mixed-use community across multiple planning areas within the project site. The Specific Plan Amendment would allow for a range of land uses, including approximately 92.4 acres of light industrial development totaling up to 1,500,720 square feet of industrial building space, approximately

43.56 acres of residential development accommodating up to 391 dwelling units, and a Formula 2 racetrack complex that would include up to 480 condominium units on approximately 188.13 acres. The amendment would also provide for a commercial business park on approximately 38.87 acres supporting up to 670,000 square feet of mixed commercial uses, as well as expansion of the airport land use overlay zone across approximately 124 acres.

In addition to these development areas, the project includes a variety of supporting land uses and infrastructure improvements intended to support long term development of the planning area. These components include open space and recreational uses on approximately 90.51 acres, relocation of the existing motorsports park to approximately 30.03 acres, and designation of approximately 51 acres for open space and conservation purposes. The project would also include related on-site and off-site right of way improvements consisting of up to 20.61 acres of new on-site roadway improvements and up to

50.19 acres of off-site roadway improvements to support circulation and access throughout the planning area. Implementation of the project would require several discretionary approvals from the City of Lake Elsinore, including adoption of the Specific Plan Amendment, approval of a specific plan level tentative tract map, residential and industrial tentative tract maps and design review approvals, commercial design review, certification of the project Environmental Impact Report, and any other approvals required by the City.

PROJECT APPROACH
EPD proposes to prepare an Environmental Impact Report (EIR) for the proposed Specific Plan Amendment in accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). The EIR will evaluate the potential environmental impacts associated with implementation of the proposed land uses and related infrastructure improvements, including light industrial, residential, commercial, motorsports, and open space components, as well as associated on-site and off-site circulation improvements. The document will provide a comprehensive evaluation of the project’s environmental effects, including project specific and cumulative impacts, and will identify feasible mitigation measures and alternatives consistent with CEQA requirements.

The EIR will include analysis of all CEQA resource areas and will incorporate technical studies and supporting documentation necessary to evaluate key issue areas. EPD will coordinate closely with the City of Lake Elsinore and the project team throughout the process to confirm the scope of analysis, ensure the document reflects the most current project information, and address comments received during public review. Based on our experience with projects of similar scale and complexity, EPD anticipates a document preparation schedule of approximately 14 months, not inclusive of agency or applicant review periods.

This coordinated approach will ensure the EIR provides a clear and legally defensible evaluation of the project’s environmental impacts to support informed decision making by the City.

April 30, 2026 - Dreamline at Lake Elsinore CEQA - Page 5

SCOPE OF WORK
TASK 1. PROJECT INITIATION
Task 1.1. Project Kickoff Meeting
Upon receipt of the signed contract, EPD will facilitate a kickoff meeting with the project team and Lead Agency staff. During this meeting, EPD will define the project scope, objectives, and key deliverables to ensure alignment among all participants.

Team members will be introduced, and their roles and responsibilities will be clarified. The project timeline, milestones, and dependencies will be reviewed to provide a clear roadmap for the project.

Communication protocols, including the frequency of meetings, reporting mechanisms, and escalation procedures, will be established to ensure effective coordination.

EPD will identify potential risks and develop mitigation strategies to address them.

County’s and/or applicant’s knowledge of specific site conditions, concerns, and issues.

Key topics to be discussed during this meeting may include the following:

1. Outline communication protocols

2. Refine project schedule

3. Confirm existing and past uses of the site

4. Review of project design, including, but not limited to:
• Preliminary plans and design specifications
• Phasing information
• Construction and operational parameters
• Discuss any other pertinent information that would guide the project description

5. Identify project objectives

6. Discuss the pre-application process

7. Discuss parameters of any project alternatives/variations the Client is considering

8. Obtain technical studies completed for the project; and

9. Discuss the preparation of new technical studies, along with any data requirements/needs for initiating technical analyses.

10. Identify relevant community and agency stakeholders.

We will also confer with the project team during this early process to discuss the potential environmental impacts of the proposed project. This upfront evaluation of impacts will allow the project team to consider project design features that would minimize environmental impacts.

EPD Staff will work closely with City of Lake Elsinore’s Staff to ensure the project follows the CEQA pathway that best suits the project. During this collaboration with City of Lake Elsinore’s Staff, EPD will identify any opportunities for increased efficiencies in the CEQA process.

April 30, 2026 - Dreamline at Lake Elsinore CEQA - Page 6 Task 1.2. Project Description
Prior to the initiation of the environmental document, EPD will develop a detailed project description.

One of the keys to successful CEQA compliance is a clear definition of the project and its components. The project description will be drafted to describe the full scope of project improvements, implementation schedule and phasing, infrastructure requirements, construction process, and any offsite improvements required for implementation and operation of the proposed project, including maps depicting the project footprint.

The budget for this task assumes that the City will supply EPD with all necessary georeferenced and projected technical files and plans. Prior to beginning preparation of the Draft EIR, the draft Project Description will be circulated to the City and project team for review and comment.One round of revisions is assumed.

TASK 2. REVIEW OF EXISTING TECHNICAL STUDEIES
EPD will review the existing technical studies for CEQA adequacy. The following applicant prepared studies will be provided to EPD for review:
• Air Quality/Greenhouse Gas Analysis
• Biological Resources Assessment & MSHCP Consistency Analysis • Cultural Resources Assessment
• Energy Analysis
• Preliminary Hydrology/Drainage Report
• Geotechnical/Soils/Slope Stability Investigation Report • Noise Impact Analysis
• Paleontological Resources Assessment
• Phase 1 Environmental Site Assessment
• Public Services Demand Study
• Water Quality Management Plan (preliminary, subject to Engineering Division approval) • Wildfire Protection Plan and Report
• Utility/ Services Systems Study (i.e., Utility Will-Serve Letters) • Vehicle Miles Traveled (VMT) Analysis (subject to City Traffic Engineer scope of work approval) • Visual Impact Analysis
• Additional technical studies, engineering reports, or other information may be required EPD will examine each study's methodologies, data sources, and conclusions, and will identify any disparities in the data and analyses presented. The project description, impact significance thresholds and mitigation measures will be reviewed to determine if they are adequate pursuant to CEQA.

EPD will cross-reference the project description, onsite and offsite improvements, findings and recommendations across different studies to ensure consistency. Upon completion of the initial peer review for CEQA adequacy, EPD will submit comments to City staff listing additional information required or necessary revisions to the studies. With City permission, EPD can coordinate directly with the applicant’s subconsultants to clarify comments and expedite the review process.

Upon receiving updated studies, EPD will conduct a second adequacy review and submit a second set of comments, if necessary.

April 30, 2026 - Dreamline at Lake Elsinore CEQA - Page 7 EPD will coordinate the technical study peer review comments with the City and, if authorized, with the Applicant’s consultant team. EPD will provide one set of comments for the first review and all comments are assumed to be addressed in the second review of the reports. Additional rounds of review may require an amendment to this scope of work and proposed budget.

TASK 3. NOTICE OF PREPARATION AND SCOPING MEETING
Task 3.1. Notice of Preparation
EPD will prepare a Notice of Preparation (NOP) and submit it to the City of Lake Elsinore for review. The NOP will include all necessary text and graphics, and comments from the City of Lake Elsinore will be incorporated into the Final NOP for public release. EPD will handle document distribution, including submission to the State Clearinghouse, and the County. This scope assumes the City of Lake Elsinore or the applicant will provide a mailing list of interested parties.

Task 3.2. Scoping Meeting
The issuance of the NOP initiates a 30-day public review period, as required under CEQA Guidelines Section 15082(c)(1), which also mandates that agencies, organizations, and individuals be notified and invited to provide input on the scope of the EIR. During this time, EPD will work with the City of Lake Elsinore to schedule a Scoping Meeting to gather public comments on the environmental aspects of the project.

EPD staff will attend the Scoping Meeting and, at the City of Lake Elsinore’s discretion, either lead the presentation or provide supporting materials for a jurisdiction-led presentation. EPD will prepare handouts and a PowerPoint presentation tailored to the meeting, ensuring these materials are reviewed by the City of Lake Elsinore prior to the event. The presentation will focus exclusively on the project’s environmental considerations, avoiding discussions on public policy or entitlement issues.

TASK 4. DRAFT EIR
Task 4.1. Administrative Draft EIR
EPD will prepare an Administrative Draft EIR for review by the City of Lake Elsinore staff. EPD will evaluate the necessary information with respect to the existing conditions, the potential adverse effects of project implementation (both individual and cumulative), and measures to mitigate such effects. Environmental issues raised during the Scoping Meeting as well as responses to the NOP will also be evaluated. The analyses will be based upon readily available data, results from additional research, and an assessment of existing technical data.

The Administrative Draft EIR will include all CEQA-required sections.As described above, refinements to the specific work program for addressing environmental issue areas will be developed in coordination with the City of Lake Elsinore staff. The impact analysis developed by EPD will treat impacts at a projectspecific level.

The methodology and criteria used for determining the impacts of the project will be explicitly and clearly described in the EIR, including any assumptions, models, or modeling techniques used in the analysis. The level of significance of the impact will be stated and a determination will be made as to whether it is less than significant, potentially significant, or significant and unavoidable. EPD will identify any standard April 30, 2026 - Dreamline at Lake Elsinore CEQA - Page 8 policies, programs, standard conditions of approval, or other obligations on the project that would effectively reduce impacts. Where such standard conditions are not adequate to mitigate impacts to below a level of significance, mitigation measures will be developed. The extent to which the proposed mitigation measures will reduce the level of significance of the impact will be identified.

Where potentially significant impacts are identified in the Administrative Draft EIR, practicable and project-specific level mitigation measures will be formulated. The impact will be numbered, as will the corresponding mitigation measures pursuant to standard City of Lake Elsinore practices. Cross-references will be provided where necessary. At the end of the impact sections, conclusions will be drawn regarding the availability and feasibility of mitigation measures. Exhibits and graphics will be used to describe, evaluate, and analyze information within the document.

The following is an outline of the sections which would be included in the EIR:
• Chapter 1: Executive Summary. This section includes a summary of the pertinent project issues and briefly describes the impacts and mitigation measures. The executive summary will also include a brief description of the alternatives to the proposed project. A summary table will be provided consisting of a matrix of impacts and corresponding mitigation measures, including levels of significance of impacts before and after mitigation. • Chapter 2: Introduction. This section provides a discussion of the purpose and authority of the EIR, organization of the document, identification of the City of Lake Elsinore as the lead agency and any responsible and trustee agencies, and other general information on the project. • Chapter 3: Project Description. This section includes regional and vicinity location maps, a description of ownership, jurisdictional boundaries, a detailed description of existing and proposed site facilities and equipment, project phasing, a discussion of required entitlements, and an overview of cumulative impacts. A statement of project objectives will be prepared by EPD and included in the Project Description. Project objectives will be included that identify the purpose of the proposed project. The statement of project objectives helps a lead agency develop a reasonable range of alternatives to evaluate in an EIR and aids in the preparation of Findings of Fact and a Statement of Overriding Considerations, if necessary. • Chapter 4: Environmental Setting, Impacts, and Mitigation Measures. This section includes an overview of the general setting of the environment in the vicinity of the project site and identifies the related projects used in the cumulative impact analysis. The impacts and mitigation measures part of this chapter includes an analysis of the topical environmental issue areas. For each significant adverse impact that remains, CEQA requires that an EIR discuss feasible mitigation measures to avoid or substantially reduce the project’s significant adverse environmental effect.

Drafting effective mitigation measures involves clearly explaining the mitigation measure’s objectives and implementation—specifically, how the mitigation measure will be put into action, who is responsible for its implementation, where it will occur, and when it will occur. Many adverse project-related impacts may be mitigated by Standard Conditions of Approval and Best Management Practices. This type of mitigation will be identified separately from the projectspecific mitigation measures identified in the EIR.

Each environmental issue will include the following sub-sections:

April 30, 2026 - Dreamline at Lake Elsinore CEQA - Page 9 o An Introduction identifying the primary documents used in the preparation of the section and any other pertinent information.
o An Existing Conditions section identifying and describing the existing physical environmental conditions that constitute the baseline physical conditions. The baseline assists in determining the significance of an impact.
o A listing of Thresholds of Significance, as adopted by the City of Lake Elsinore (if available). o Project Impacts describing environmental changes to the existing physical conditions that may occur if the proposed project is implemented and evaluating these changes with respect to the thresholds of significance. In addition, this section would include any Project Design Features proposed to reduce potentially significant impacts. o Cumulative Impacts describing the potential changes in the environmental conditions that result from the incremental impact of the proposed project added to closely related past, present, and probable future projects.
o Mitigation Measures, which are those specific measures that may be required of the project by the Lead Agency to: 1) avoid an impact; 2) minimize an impact; 3) rectify an impact by restoration; 4) reduce or eliminate an impact over time by preservation and maintenance operations; or 5) compensate for the impact by replacing or providing substitute resources.
o Level of Significance after Mitigation describing the level of impact significance remaining after mitigation measures have been implemented.
• Chapter 5: Consequences of Project Implementation. This section summarizes those environmental effects that are found to be less-than-significant and those which are deemed significant and unavoidable. This section also includes other EIR sections mandated by CEQA, including a discussion of irreversible impacts, significant cumulative impacts, and growth inducement resulting from the project.
• Chapter 6: Alternatives. This section analyzes a reasonable range of alternatives that meet the applicant-provided project objectives; are feasible on an economic, legal, and regulatory basis; and would avoid or substantially lessen at least one significant impact of the project. EPD will analyze three project alternatives, including the required “No Project” alternative. These alternatives would be developed as part of the preparation of the Administrative Draft EIR. The Administrative Draft EIR will include a discussion of the environmental impacts associated with each alternative and compare the impacts with those identified for the proposed project. In addition, a summary matrix that presents and contrasts the environmental effects of each alternative as compared to the proposed project will be prepared. • Chapter 7: Organizations and Persons Consulted. This section lists the organizations and persons consulted during the preparation of the EIR.
• Chapter 8: List of Preparers. This section lists the individuals who contributed to the preparation of the EIR.
• Chapter 9: Bibliography. This section will include a list of the references cited in the body of the EIR, organized by chapter.

April 30, 2026 - Dreamline at Lake Elsinore CEQA - Page 10 • Technical Appendix. The technical appendix will include the IS/NOP and the technical studies used in the preparation of the EIR. This may be included as a separate volume.

One synchronized review of the Administrative Draft EIR. is anticipated by the City and applicant team, if authorized by the City.

Task 4.2. Screencheck Draft EIR
EPD will incorporate comments received on the Administrative Draft EIR and a Screencheck Draft will be prepared and submitted to the City of Lake Elsinore for review. Project team and City comments will be incorporated into an updated document. One round of review per entity is expected.

Task 4.3. Public Draft EIR, Notice of Completion and Notice of Availability of Draft EIR Public Draft EIR. EPD will incorporate modifications to the Screencheck Draft EIR based on the specific comments received from the City of Lake Elsinore and prepare a Draft EIR for public review. Exhibits and graphics will be used to describe, evaluate, and analyze information within the document. Included as appendices to the Draft EIR will be the NOP, comments received on the NOP, technical studies prepared for the project, and any necessary text changes to plans or ordinances.

Prior to release, EPD will submit to the City of Lake Elsinore a PDF of the “print-ready” Draft EIR for final review and comment. Minimal comments are expected at this stage. Hard copies of the EIR, as well as CDs will be distributed as needed.

Notice of Completion and Notice of Availability of Draft EIR. With release of the Draft EIR, EPD will prepare and submit a NOC to the State Clearinghouse. A Notice of Availability will also be prepared and distributed by EPD to reviewing agencies, interested parties, and the project vicinity. Upon City of Lake Elsinore approval, EPD will coordinate the submission of the Draft EIR and the NOC to the State Clearinghouse and the County clerk.

TASK 5. FINAL EIR
Task 5.1. Response to Comments
EPD will respond to comments received on the Draft EIR during the 45-day public review period. EPD will prepare thorough, reasoned, and sensitive responses to relevant environmental issues. Regular communication will occur with City of Lake Elsinore staff to ensure that responses are accurate and thorough. As appropriate, “global responses” will be prepared and placed near the front of the responses to comments. These global responses will reduce the need to duplicate responses to repetitive comments.

Once the comment period has closed, EPD will finalize the Responses to Comments section and submit an Administrative Draft to the City of Lake Elsinore and the applicant team for review. This scope of work assumes no more than 100 hours of staff time are necessary to draft responses to public comments received on the substance and technical adequacy of the Draft EIR.

The estimated budget is based on professional staff hours, not the number of individual comments, and assumes that no new or additional modeling, technical studies or surveys will be required to complete adequate responses. Modification to the scope of work, budget, and time frame may be necessary if excessive comments received from agencies, or the public require substantially more time, additional April 30, 2026 - Dreamline at Lake Elsinore CEQA - Page 11 modeling, and/or research. Should this situation become apparent, we will discuss this concern with the City of Lake Elsinore and shall seek and obtain written approval before such costs are incurred. Regular communication will occur with City of Lake Elsinore staff to ensure that responses are accurate and thorough.

Task 5.2. Final EIR
This task will include the completion of any required minor revisions and/or errata to the Draft EIR and technical studies based on comments received during public circulation. Revisions will be completed with clear strikeout and underline revisions and included in an errata section of the Final EIR. One round of review of the Final EIR is assumed, with separate comments from the City of Lake Elsinore, and the applicant if appropriate.

Based on comments to the Administrative Draft Responses to Comments, EPD will finalize the Responses to Comments section, including revisions to the Draft EIR. The Final EIR and Responses to Comments will be distributed to all parties who submitted comments; each party will receive a notice with an electronic link to the Final EIR document posted on the City of Lake Elsinore website. The Final EIR must be released at least 10 days before any public hearings.

Task 5.3. Findings of Fact and Statement of Overriding Considerations In accordance with Sections 15091 and 15093 of the State CEQA Guidelines, the EPD team in collaboration with the City and the project team, will draft the Findings of Fact for the proposed project, and Statement of Overriding Considerations (SOC), if deemed necessary. The EPD team will use a format approved by the City of Lake Elsinore and will submit the draft prior to Planning Commission meetings. EPD will submit the Draft Findings and SOC for City of Lake Elsinore review and will respond to one (1) consolidated set of City of Lake Elsinore /project team comments.

Task 5.4. Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program (MMRP) A Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program (MMRP) will be prepared pursuant to Section 21081.6 of the Public Resources Code. It will be presented in standard City of Lake Elsinore format and will identify the significant impacts that would result from the project, proposed mitigation measures for each impact, the time at which each measure will need to be conducted, the entity responsible for implementing the mitigation measure, and the City of Lake Elsinore department or other agency responsible for monitoring the mitigation effort and ensuring its success. A draft MMRP will be prepared and will be incorporated into the Final EIR that is prepared for City Council certification.

Task 5.5. Notice of Determination
If the project is approved, EPD will prepare a Notice of Determination (NOD) for filing with the County Clerk and submission to the State Clearinghouse.

April 30, 2026 - Dreamline at Lake Elsinore CEQA - Page 12 TASK 6. MEETINGS AND PUBLIC HEARINGS
Task 6.1. Meetings
To effectively manage the costs of the project, EPD will attend half-hour bi-weekly conference calls (briefings) to update the City and Applicant on upcoming deliverables and discuss any potential issues that may impact the scope of work for the approximately 14-month duration of the project. EPD will draft agendas in advance of these meetings and deliver minutes via email to the entire project team. The minutes will identify action items and the responsible party to implement said action item. In addition to standing meetings, EPD will be available to the City staff to answer questions, address concerns, or to clarify issues as they arise. If the CEQA schedule extends beyond 14 months, an additional budget will likely be required.

Task 6.2. Public Hearings
EPD will attend public hearings held for the proposed Project. These hearings are anticipated to include two (2) Planning Commission hearing and two (2) City Council hearing. The EPD Project Manager will be prepared to answer technical questions related to the EIR and relevant comments on the CEQA Document raised during the public hearing meetings. The budget for this task includes approximately 6 hours for the Project Manager for each meeting.

TASK 7. CEQA PROJECT MANAGEMENT AND COORDINATION
EPD’s CEQA project manager will coordinate closely with the project team and City of Lake Elsinore staff to ensure that the CEQA document and associated documents delivered to the City of Lake Elsinore are legally defensible, accurate, and useful to decision makers considering the approval of the project. The project manager will also coordinate with City of Lake Elsinore staff throughout the process not only to streamline the CEQA process, but to avoid or anticipate any changes that could result in delays.

The project manager will be the key contact for the project team and City of Lake Elsinore, and will be responsible for managing (1) CEQA document task scheduling and assignment, management of resources, monitoring of costs, and schedule adherence; (2) consultation and coordination with local and state agencies relative to the environmental document and the environmental review process; (3) coordination and communications with the project team and City of Lake Elsinore staff to ensure that their policies, procedures, and any applicable codes are complied with and, where applicable, are incorporated into the CEQA document; and (4) ensuring that the environmental review process and the CEQA document satisfy the statutes and guidelines of CEQA and CEQA procedures.

This scope of work assumes ongoing project management at an estimated 1 hour/week for the Project Manager and 1 hours/month for the principal-in-charge for the duration of the schedule as estimated in this proposal, excluding public review periods.

REPORT TO CITY COUNCIL
To: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
From: Jason Simpson, City Manager
Prepared by: Dustin Reed, Fire Chief
Date: May 26, 2026
Subject: Agreement with the California Department of Forestry and Fire for Wildland Protection Services
Recommendation
Adopt A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF LAKE ELSINORE,

CALIFORNIA, APPROVING AN AGREEMENT WITH THE CALIFORNIA DEPARTMENT OF FORESTRY AND FIRE FOR WILDLAND PROTECTION SERVICES FOR FISCAL YEAR 2026- 2027.

Background
Since 2013, the City of Lake Elsinore has entered into an agreement with the California Department of Forestry and Fire (CALFIRE) for wildland protection service to protect the City from unfunded liabilities in the event of a wildland fire within the City that is not covered by an MTZ (Mutual Threat Zone). These costs are for CALFIRE or other resources that may be needed to control a wildland fire, including aircraft, crews, dozers, engines, and logistics. These costs could easily reach tens of thousands of dollars to hundreds of thousands of dollars per day.

Under the agreement, CALFIRE treats the area covered by the agreement and areas in the MTZ as State Responsibility Area (SRA) lands. (This is virtually all the Wildland Urban Interface Area in the City). As such, CALFIRE would bear the cost of suppressing wildland fires in these areas using any needed resources to accomplish this task. The City would only expend its budgeted cost annually to maintain this agreement with CALFIRE. The City last renewed this agreement in 2025 for the fiscal year 2025-2026.

Fire Services Cooperative Agreement

Page 2 of 2 ends

Discussion
The proposed agreement for wildland protection services is for the fiscal year 2026-2027. The cost is based on what the State currently pays to protect its SRA. The current cost per acre is approximately $47.55, plus a 12.10% administrative charge. The cost per acre is reviewed and adjusted annually. The area covered by the agreement can also be adjusted to reflect build-up or annexations. The City of Lake Elsinore is responsible for protecting life, property, and wildland areas comprising 1,689 acres of land (as shown in the agreement). Therefore, the agreement is for a total cost of $90,029.70. Staff believes this agreement is a cost-effective way for the City of Lake Elsinore to protect itself from potentially crippling unbudgeted expenses from wildland fires and provide a fiscally prudent level of protection to our citizens and natural resources.

Fiscal Impact
The proposed agreement is included in the Fiscal Year 2026-2027 budget.

Page 5 ends

indemnify, defend, and hold harmless City for the payment of any employee and/or employer contributions for PERS benefits on behalf of Contractor or its employees, agents, or subcontractors, as well as for the payment of any penalties and interest on such contributions, which would otherwise be the responsibility of City.

11. Interests of Contractor. Contractor (including principals, associates and professional employees) covenants and represents that it does not now have any investment or interest in real property and shall not acquire any interest, direct or indirect, in the area covered by this Agreement or any other source of income, interest in real property or investment which would be affected in any manner or degree by the performance of Contractor’s services hereunder. Contractor further covenants and represents that in the performance of its duties hereunder no person having any such interest shall perform any services under this Agreement.

12. Professional Ability of Contractor. City has relied upon the professional training and ability of Contractor to perform the services hereunder as a material inducement to enter into this Agreement. Contractor shall therefore provide properly skilled professional and technical personnel to perform all services under this Agreement. All work performed by Contractor under this Agreement shall be in accordance with applicable legal requirements and shall meet the standard of quality ordinarily to be expected of competent professionals in Contractor’s field of expertise.

13. Compliance with Laws.
a. Contractor shall comply with all local, state and federal laws and regulations applicable to the services required hereunder, including any rule, regulation or bylaw governing the conduct or performance of Contractor and/or its employees, officers, or board members.

15. Indemnity. Contractor shall indemnify, defend, and hold harmless the City and its officials, officers, employees, agents, and volunteers from and against any and all losses, liability, claims, suits, actions, damages, and causes of action arising out of any personal injury, bodily injury, loss of life, or damage to property, or any violation of any federal, state, or municipal law or ordinance, to the extent caused, in whole or in part, by the willful misconduct or negligent acts or omissions of Contractor or its employees, subcontractors, or agents, by acts for which they could be held strictly liable, or by the quality or character of their work. The foregoing obligation of Contractor shall not apply when (1) the injury, loss of life, damage to property, or violation of law arises from the sole negligence or willful misconduct of the City or its officers, employees, agents, or volunteers and (2) the actions of Contractor or its employees, subcontractor, or agents have contributed in no part to the injury, loss of life, damage to property, or violation of law. It is understood that the duty of Contractor to indemnify and hold harmless includes the duty to defend as set forth in Section 2778 of the California Civil Code. Acceptance by City of insurance certificates and endorsements required under this Agreement does not relieve Contractor from liability under this indemnification and hold harmless clause. This indemnification and hold harmless clause shall apply to any damages or claims for damages whether or not such insurance policies shall have been determined to apply. By execution of this Agreement, Contractor acknowledges and agrees to the provisions of this Section and that it is a material element of consideration.

16. Insurance Requirements.
a. Insurance. Contractor, at Contractor’s own cost and expense, shall procure and maintain, for the duration of the contract, unless modified by the City’s Risk Manager, the following insurance policies.
i. Workers’ Compensation Coverage. Contractor shall maintain Workers’ Compensation Insurance and Employer’s Liability Insurance for his/her employees in accordance with the laws of the State of California. In addition, Contractor shall require each subcontractor to similarly maintain Workers’ Compensation Insurance and Employer’s Liability Insurance in accordance with the laws of the State of California for all of the subcontractor’s employees. Any notice of cancellation or non-renewal of all Workers’ Compensation policies must be received by the City at least thirty (30) days prior to such change. The insurer shall agree to waive all rights of subrogation against City, its officers, agents, employees and volunteers for losses arising from work performed by Contractor for City. In the event that Contractor is exempt from Worker’s Compensation Insurance and Employer’s Liability Insurance for his/her employees in accordance with the laws of the State of California, Contractor shall submit to the City a Certificate of Exemption from Workers Compensation Insurance in a form approved by the City Attorney.
ii. General Liability Coverage. Contractor shall maintain commercial general liability insurance in an amount not less than one million dollars ($1,000,000) per occurrence for bodily injury, personal injury and property damage. If a commercial general liability insurance form or other form with a general aggregate limit is used, either the general aggregate limit shall apply separately to the work to be performed under this Agreement or the general aggregate limit shall be at least twice the required occurrence limit. Required commercial general liability coverage shall be at least as broad as Insurance Services Office Commercial General Liability occurrence form CG 0001 (ed. 11/88) or Insurance Services Office form number GL 0002 (ed. 1/73) covering comprehensive General Liability and Insurance Services Office form number GL 0404

Page 7 ends

covering Broad Form Comprehensive General Liability. No endorsement may be attached limiting the coverage.
iii. Automobile Liability Coverage. Contractor shall maintain automobile liability insurance covering bodily injury and property damage for all activities of the Contractor arising out of or in connection with the work to be performed under this Agreement, including coverage for owned, hired and non-owned vehicles, in an amount of not less than one million dollars ($1,000,000) combined single limit for each occurrence.

Automobile liability coverage must be at least as broad as Insurance Services Office Automobile Liability form CA 0001 (ed. 12/90) Code 1 (“any auto”). No endorsement may be attached limiting the coverage.
iv. Professional Liability Coverage. Contractor shall maintain professional errors and omissions liability insurance appropriate for Contractor’s profession for protection against claims alleging negligent acts, errors or omissions which may arise from Contractor’s services under this Agreement, whether such services are provided by the Contractor or by its employees, subcontractors, or sub Contractors. The amount of this insurance shall not be less than one million dollars ($1,000,000) on a claims-made annual aggregate basis, or a combined single limit per occurrence basis. b. Endorsements. Each general liability and automobile liability insurance policy shall be with insurers possessing a Best’s rating of no less than A:VII and shall be endorsed with the following specific language:
i. Notwithstanding any inconsistent statement in any required insurance policies or any subsequent endorsements attached thereto, the protection offered by all policies, except for Workers’ Compensation, shall bear an endorsement whereby it is provided that, the City and its officers, employees, servants, volunteers and agents and independent contractors, including without limitation, the City Manager and City Attorney, are named as additional insureds. Additional insureds shall be entitled to the full benefit of all insurance policies in the same manner and to the same extent as any other insureds and there shall be no limitation to the benefits conferred upon them other than policy limits to coverages.
ii. This policy shall be considered primary insurance as respects the City, its elected or appointed officers, officials, employees, agents and volunteers. Any insurance maintained by the City, including any self-insured retention the City may have, shall be considered excess insurance only and shall not contribute with it. iii. This insurance shall act for each insured and additional insured as though a separate policy had been written for each, except with respect to the limits of liability of the insuring company.
iv. The insurer waives all rights of subrogation against the City, its elected or appointed officers, officials, employees or agents. v. Any failure to comply with reporting provisions of the policies shall not affect coverage provided to the City, its elected or appointed officers, officials, employees, agents or volunteers.

Page 8 ends

vi. The insurance provided by this Policy shall not be suspended, voided, canceled, or reduced in coverage or in limits except after thirty (30) days written notice has been received by the City.
c. Deductibles and Self-Insured Retentions. Any deductibles or self-insured retentions must be declared to and approved by the City. At the City’s option, Contractor shall demonstrate financial capability for payment of such deductibles or self-insured retentions. d. Certificates of Insurance. Contractor shall provide certificates of insurance with original endorsements to City as evidence of the insurance coverage required herein.

18. Assignment and Subcontracting. The parties recognize that a substantial inducement to City for entering into this Agreement is the professional reputation, experience and competence of Contractor and the subcontractors listed in Exhibit B. Contractor shall be fully responsible to City for all acts or omissions of any subcontractors. Assignments of any or all rights, duties or obligations of the Contractor under this Agreement will be permitted only with the express consent of the City. Contractor shall not subcontract any portion of the work to be performed under this Agreement except as provided in Exhibit B without the written authorization of the City. If City consents to such subcontract, Contractor shall be fully responsible to City for all acts or omissions of those subcontractors. Nothing in this Agreement shall create any contractual relationship between City and any subcontractor nor shall it create any obligation on the part of the City to pay or to see to the payment of any monies due to any such subcontractor other than as otherwise is required by law.

19. Waiver. Waiver of a breach or default under this Agreement shall not constitute a continuing waiver of a subsequent breach of the same or any other provision under this Agreement.

Page 9 ends

23. Equal Opportunity Employment. Contractor represents that it is an equal opportunity employer and it shall not discriminate against any subcontractor, employee or applicant for employment because of race, religion, color, national origin, handicap, ancestry, sex or age. Such non-discrimination shall include, but not be limited to, all activities related to initial employment, upgrading, demotion, transfer, recruitment or recruitment advertising, layoff or termination.

Contractor agrees to fully comply with all applicable federal and state labor laws (including, without limitation, if applicable, the Prevailing Wage Laws). It is agreed by the parties that, in connection with the Work or Services provided pursuant to this Agreement, Contractor shall bear all risks of payment or non-payment of prevailing wages under California law, and Contractor hereby agrees to defend, indemnify, and hold the City, and its officials, officers, employees, agents, and volunteers, free and harmless from any claim or liability arising out of any failure or alleged failure to comply with the Prevailing Wage Laws. The foregoing indemnity shall survive termination of this Agreement.

Page 10 ends

27. Authority to Enter Agreement. Contractor has all requisite power and authority to conduct its business and to execute, deliver, and perform the Agreement.

The City Manager is authorized to enter into an amendment or otherwise take action on behalf of the City to make the following modifications to the Agreement: (a) a name change; (b) grant extensions of time; (c) nonmonetary changes in the scope of services; and/or (d) suspend or terminate the Agreement.

29. Entire Agreement; Incorporation; Conflict. This Agreement contains the entire understanding between the parties relating to the obligations described herein. All prior or contemporaneous understandings, agreements, representations and statements, oral or written, are superseded in total by this Agreement and shall be of no further force or effect. Contractor’s Proposal is incorporated only for the description of the scope of services and/or the schedule of performance and no other terms and conditions from such proposal shall apply to this Agreement unless specifically agreed to in writing. In the event of conflict, this Agreement shall take precedence over those contained in the Contractor’s Proposal.
