CANYON RANCH ANNEXATION AREA: PLAN FOR SERVICE AND FISCAL IMPACT ANALYSIS The Natelson Dale Group Inc.
4 Chapter 1: Introduction
This report presents the plan for service and fiscal analysis of the proposed annexation of the Canyon Ranch Annexation Area (Project) into the City of Loma Linda. The annexation area of approximately 141 acres is currently located in the County of San Bernardino unincorporated area, adjacent to the city of Loma Linda boundary and within the city’s sphere of influence. Existing uses in the annexation area include an existing religious institution (along with another planned religious institution on an existing vacant parcel), a restaurant/bar, and single-family residences (see Figure 1). The Project developer (Developer) intends to construct 126 single-family homes in two subdivisions in the annexation area, Tentative Tract Maps (TTMs) 20403 and 20404.

Purpose of the study
The Local Agency Formation Commission (LAFCO) for San Bernardino County requires that a Plan For Service and Fiscal Impact Analysis (Analysis) be prepared when a jurisdiction is affected by a proposed change such as the annexation proposed for this Project. According to the San Bernardino LAFCO Policy and Procedure Manual, the Analysis needs to address:

A. A description of the level and range of each service to be provided to the affected territory.

B. An indication of when the service can be feasibly extended to the affected territory.

C. An identification of any improvement or upgrading of structures, roads, water or sewer facilities, other infrastructure, or other conditions the affected agency would impose upon the affected territory.

D. The Plan shall include a Fiscal Impact Analysis which shows the estimated cost of extending the service and a description of how the service or required improvements will be financed. The Fiscal Impact Analysis shall provide, at a minimum, a five (5)-year projection of revenues and expenditures. A narrative discussion of the sufficiency of revenues for anticipated service extensions and operations is required.

E. An indication of whether the annexing territory is, or will be, proposed for inclusion within an existing or proposed improvement zone/district, redevelopment area, assessment district, or community facilities district [does not apply to this analysis].

In keeping with the LAFCO guidelines, the cost and revenue categories included in this report reflect costs and revenues associated with municipal functions that would be absorbed by the City upon annexation of the Project. Within the City’s budget, this includes amounts for a broad range of General Fund-related activities The intent is to align cost categories with corresponding revenue sources, tabulating the effects on each due to the annexation. Additional discussion pertaining to the conceptual basis for the figures used in the analysis is provided in table footnotes.

Figures 1-1 and 1-2 below show Loma Linda and the annexation area, respectively.

8 Chapter 2: Project Description
Components of Annexation Area
The overall annexation area includes two subdivisions with residential development summarized in Table 2- 1A below. In addition, the area includes additional parcels with agricultural uses, some residences, restaurant/bar, and a religious institution. It is assumed that these uses will annexed in as part of the overall project area, and that no other future development will occur in the five-year period evaluated in this analysis.

Planned Improvements (New Development Area)
The Developer plans to construct 126 single family homes on two separate sites totaling approximately 68 acres. The two sites include two TTMs: TTM 20403 (11 acres) and TTM 20404 (57 acres). (See Table 2-1. For purposes of this study, the site and homes are expected to be developed over an approximately 5-year period. At the City’s average household size of 2.59 persons per unit, 326 residents will be accommodated at the Project. See Table 2-1a.

Currently, information on new street infrastructure or improvements is not available from the applicant. As a preliminary analysis, new maintenance costs related to street improvements and other City of Loma Linda Public Works activities are calculated as shown in Chapter 4, Table 4-3.

TNDG assumes that costs and revenues (derived from user fees) associated with water and wastewater infrastructure developed at the Project, and for recycling and refuse collection, will be essentially equal (which charges set on a breakeven/cost recovery basis) and are therefore not quantified in this report.

On a preliminary basis, this fiscal impact analysis assumes the City would receive 13.58% of the basic one percent property tax levy on assessed valuation. This factor is based on the previous tax sharing agreement between the City and County for the Orchard Heights Development Annexation1 .

15 Chapter 4: City of Loma Linda Fiscal Analysis Assumptions The general approach to conducting the fiscal impact assessment includes the following steps:

1. Establishing baseline population, employment, and similar conditions that apply to the annexing city, including a determination of appropriate city “service populations,” in this case a combination of residents and workers.

2. Compiling data on costs and revenues for relevant categories of city services from budget documents.

3. Determining and applying methods for projecting these costs and revenues within a process appropriate for the analysis of the Project-specific fiscal impacts.

The application of these three steps to this analysis is addressed in the rest of this chapter.

Baseline Population and Employment
Population and employment figures applied to this analysis are shown on Table 4-1. Notes accompanying the table describe the data sources and rationale applied to deriving the relevant figures.

Details of the comparison of costs and revenues are shown on Table 5-2 for cost and revenue categories that are relevant to the Project. Budget categories otherwise associated with analyses of this type that are not shown in the table include:

Revenues – Measure I
Measure I is a half-cent countywide sales tax that is allocated to the City on two bases: 1) arterial funds allocated by the San Bernardino County Transportation Authority (SBCTA) for transportation projects in the region, and 2) “local” funds distributed to cities on a per capita basis which must be expended on streets and roads based on a 20-year transportation plan and five-year capital improvement plan (CIP). Since this revenue is allocated to programs costs outside of the City’s annually-recurring General Fund expenditures, It is not projected in the fiscal analysis.

22 Chapter 6: Project One-Time Fees and Charges
This section presents the estimated one-time fees and charges associated with new development in the proposed annexation area. Development impact fees are one-time fees paid by the developer to offset the construction costs of new public infrastructure and capital facilities needed to serve the Project.

Development of the Project will entail payment of $3,953,307 in City of Loma Linda development impact fees. In addition, impact fees paid to the Redlands Unified School District will total $1,588,356. These payments are detailed in Table 6-1 below.

Dear Ms. Matarrita:

RE: Notice of Intent to Adopt a Mitigated Negative Declaration - Canyon Ranch Residential Subdivision and Annexation
The Local Agency Formation Commission for San Bernardino County (LAFCO) received the Notice of Intent (NOI) to adopt a Mitigated Negative Declaration for the Canyon Ranch Residential Subdivision and Annexation (General Plan Amendment No. P21-073, Zone Change No. P21-074, Annexation No. P21-072, and Tentative Tract Map No. P21-075 for Maps 20403 and 20404). Thank you for allowing LAFCO to provide comments on the working draft copy of the Initial Study and the proposed Mitigated Negative Declaration. Two additional comment are being provided for your consideration.

On the Pre-Zone Designations on page 1, it might be helpful to list the Low Density Residential (R-1) pre-zone being proposed. Although the text in the Project Description describes the change being proposed for portion of the current General Commercial to R-1, the R-1 designation is not reflected on the listing on page 1. It may be necessary to provide a distinction between the existing pre-zone designations—which are listed—and the proposed change.

For Fire Protection, page 62, it is noted in the text that upon annexation, the area would be detached from the Valley Service Zone. However, a more accurate statement would be that the area would be detached from the San Bernardino County Fire Protection District (SBCFPD), its Valley Service Zone, and its Zone FP-5 (since the Valley Service Zone is only a component unit of the actual service provider – SBCFPD).

We look forward to working with the City on the further processing of this project through the LAFCO process. Please maintain LAFCO on your distribution list to receive further information related to this process.

Sincerely,

SAMUEL MARTINEZ

**URGENT SAN TIMOTEO CANYON DEVELOPMENT**
Gabriel Brambila <[email protected]>
Wed 11/16/2022 5:38 PM
To: [email protected] <[email protected]> Cc: Lorena Matarrita <[email protected]>
Hello,
I seen that y’all posted a sign at san timoteo cyn rd and Nevada st about a development happening in the area. I am conflicted with the fact that I reviewed all the information posted online about the impacts this project will have on the area and community. As a DIRECT Nieghbor to that area, I am concern with several factors including but not limited to;
That area homes one of San Bernardino county’s top 10 endangered species, the kangaroo rat. Since I live in the area, I often wonder those empty grounds and have seen many of them there. The reports posted online say that the project will have no to minimal impact of the environment there but the project will literally destroy their habitat and force them to move elsewhere which will most likely result in the deaths of this already endangered species. I have written to county, the state and several other organizations to notify them of this matter.

Second, as a resident who not only lives within under a quarter mile from the project and drives through that area everyday, I object to this project because it may very well take a direct toll on my well being and health. The traffic is already backed up bumper to bumper in the canyon from around 4pm-6pm, this will only make it worse. The pollution in my air space and surrounding areas will become worse because of the machinery needed to build this project, my street will be damaged by the heavy equipment used to make this happen. And the noise will be outrageous. I often have to work nights so imagine coming home around 4-5am to only be woken up by nosies of mail guns, heavy machinery and equipment be operated at early morning times. Many of these constructions crews start their day as early as 5am and work late hours wrecking chaos with their loud noises! Third, these homes change the complete atmosphere if the canyon. The report said it would not visually impact the appearance of the surrounding areas, however the is completely wrong! The canyon is mainly ALL agricultural land, With minimum parcel lot sizes of 5 acres, with some exceptions* and even the few home that are under 5 acres have a decent amount of land/ space. These new tract homes will have tiny lots side by side. If I cannot stop this construction then I at least recommend that the homes be built to suit the atmosphere of the canyon! The homes here have land, they are ranch style home with land, by putting tract homes in the canyon you are changing the WHOLE AND COMPLETE visual scenery of the San Timoteo canyon which is unacceptable.

Also, they will be building over 160 residential unit and several other buildings yet there are NO PLANS for recreational areas for theses residents. The nearest park is to far to walk to from within the canyon residential buildings. Several studies In California have determined that a typical household consist almost 4 people per home. That average has greatly increased due to economical and pandemic factors in the last couple of months and years. 4 times 160 homes is about 640 new residents that would be living in the canyon, which is more that the total 15 times the population of the loma Linda/ Redlands residents that reside in the San Timoteo canyon! These new individuals have don’t have access to a park or recreational area within walking distance. This new development must be required to include a park, dog park and other recreational areas for its new residents.

Thank you, and I hope you take into consideration my comments about this development Gabriel Brambila, direct Nieghbor of this development on Beaumont ave.

Dear Mr. Gabriel Brambila,
Thank you for your email provided on November 16, 2022 and outlining your concerns regarding the Canyon Ranch Annexation Project proposed west of San Timoteo Canyon Road, south of Barton Road and north of Beaumont Avenue. As stated in your email, you have concerns regarding the project’s impact to the endangered kangaroo rat (SBKR) and the loss of habitat. In addition, you have a concern regarding peak hour traffic, construction-related air quality and noise. Also you stated a concern regarding the project’s aesthetic impacts including changing large 5-acre lots from agricultural use to non-agricultural use, and that the tract homes will have small lots and will be over 160 units with other buildings and no recreational areas proposed.

Below is a written response to each of your concerns regarding the Canyon Ranch Annexation Project.

Endangered Species - An analysis of the likelihood for the occurrence of all sensitive species documented in the Redlands and San Bernardino South quads was conducted and takes into account species range as well as documentation within the vicinity of the Project area and includes the habitat requirements for each species and the potential for their occurrence in the area proposed for TTM 20403 and TTM 20404. According to the databases, no sensitive habitat, including USFWS designated critical habitat, occurs within or adjacent to the Project site.

The Project Site is located within a moderately developed area of Loma Linda. The Project Site has been subject to ongoing disturbance in the form of vegetation management (mowing), foot traffic, vehicle traffic, and domestic dog activity. Due to the channelization of San Timoteo creek and development within the surrounding area, the Project area is no longer subject to the normal flood regimes that are conducive to creating the open canopy structure of the pioneer and intermediate stages of Riversidean alluvial fan sage scrub habitat that may have historically been occupied by SBKR in the Project vicinity. There is no habitat within the Proposed Project footprint, as well as the immediate surrounding area, that is suitable for any sensitive species identified in the CNDDB search including the SBKR.

Traffic, Construction Related Air Quality and Noise - As concluded in the Traffic Study, the study intersection Levels of Service for Existing Plus Project conditions are forecast to operate within acceptable Levels of Service (C or better) during the peak hours for Existing Plus Project conditions. The study intersection Levels of Service for Opening Year (2024) Without Project conditions are forecast to operate within acceptable Levels of Service (C or better) during the peak hours for Opening Year (2024) Without Project conditions. The study intersection Levels of Service for Opening Year (2024) With Project conditions are forecast to operate within acceptable Levels of Service (C or better) during the peak hours for Opening Year (2024) With Project conditions. Therefore, the proposed project is forecast to result in no project-related City of Loma Linda

NOIA Public Comment Response Page 2 of 3
Level of Service deficiencies at the study intersections for the Opening Year (2024) With Project scenario.

The study intersection Levels of Service for Year 2040 Without Project conditions are forecast to operate within acceptable Levels of Service (C or better) during the peak hours for Year 2040 Without Project conditions, except for the following study intersection that is forecast to operate at Levels of Service D or worse during peak hours: Nevada Street (NS) at San Timoteo Canyon Road (EW) (D-AM / E-PM peak hour). The installation of a traffic signal is recommended at the Nevada Street (NS) at San Timoteo Canyon Road intersection. The study intersections are forecast to operate within acceptable Levels of Service (C or better) during the peak hours with improvements that will be required of the Project.

The Project Proponent is not solely responsible for installation of the traffic signal, especially since it is not warranted until 2040 without Project. The Project Proponent is required to contribute towards the funding mechanism for arterial streets, traffic signals, interchange improvements as well as emergency services.

A Noise Analysis was prepared for the Project and is available online and at the City of Loma Linda Community Development Department for review. As stated in the analysis, modeled unmitigated construction noise levels when combined with existing measured noise levels ranged between 41.5 and 67.1 dBA Leq at the nearest sensitive receptors to the Project Site.

When modeled construction noise levels are combined with existing noise levels, receptors will be exposed to short-term increases in ambient noise levels of up to 5 dB Leq. Project construction would comply with City of Loma Linda Municipal Code Sections 9.20.050 and

9.20.070. In addition, best management practices related to loud music/voices, turning off equipment would be required as conditions of project approval.

An Air Quality analysis was prepared for the Project and analyzed construction related emissions. The analysis found that emissions would not exceed South Coast Air Quality Management District thresholds and impacts were determined to be less than significant. As stated in the Initial Study, the Project Proponent would be required to comply with all applicable South Coast Air Quality Management District rules and regulations including Rules 402 nuisance, and 403 fugitive dust, which require the implementation of Best Available Control Measures for each fugitive dust source, and the Air Quality Management Plan which identifies Best Available Control Technologies for area sources and point sources.

Aesthetics - Regarding the aesthetic impacts of the Project and change of atmosphere within the canyon, the development of vacant land with the construction of 126 single-family residences would change the visual character of the site but would not objectively be considered a substantial degradation as it would blend with existing residential development to the west, and the remaining 74.32 acres would remain unchanged. Under the existing County zoning, the Project Site is designated rural living and could result in the development of singlefamily homes. TTM 20404 would consist of 89 residential lots (maximum density of 2 units per acre) and two lettered lots (Lot A consisting of 58,646 square feet and Lot B consisting of 3,834 square feet) providing green space and water detention basins. TTM 20403 would consist of 37 residential lots with lot sizes ranging from 15,589 square feet to a minimum lot size of 7,200 square feet, and a 20,831 square-foot letter lot to provide open space/water retention.

Recreational Facilities/Parks - According to the recently adopted Development Impact Fee Nexus Study, the City has a policy of 3.0 acres of parkland per 1,000 residents. The Proposed Project would generate 327 new residents within the area and would require an additional 0.98 .

NOIA Public Comment Response Page 3 of 3
acres of parkland. The Proposed Project would contribute financially to the City’s current sufficient parkland acreage. The collection of development impacts fees and inclusion of open space lots proposed within the development would ensure no significant impacts would result. In addition, the Project’s new residents would have access to County Regional Parks as these park services would not change as a result of annexation.

At this time, staff is tentatively scheduling the first public hearing for the annexation and subdivision request on March 1, 2023. It will be presented before the Planning Commission and then taken to City Council for ratification at a later date. For meeting agenda information, please visit the city’s website at https://www.lomalinda-ca.gov/our_city/board__city_council.

ATTACHMENT I - Updated Plan for Service and Fiscal Impact Analysis 6.29.22.pdf; Updated Figures as of 6-16-22.pdf; Good afternoon Bob,
Thank you for your email. I will submit your comments for the record.

I want to confirm that a Hillside Residential zoning is not being proposed. The area known as "San Timoteo Creek" within the General Plan and Measure V is already pre-zoned Hillside Residential Very Low Density, aka "HR-VL". That is the name of the prezone that requires ½ acre development for all newly created lots. The applicant will build these large lots according to what the current pre-zoning and city designation allows. The pre-zoning and land use designation for the existing homes and surrounding businesses is not changing. It will remain as is. The only zone change occurring will involve 4 vacant parcels, all owned by Highpointe. The 4 parcels are currently pre-zoned commercial and will be changed to residential. The Mitigated Neg Dec, the subdivisions, and the annexation request is not creating any non-conforming zoning within the 141-acre area.

Per state law, the public hearing notice is required to go out at least 10 days before the hearing date. It can be posted in the local newspaper, or posted at 3 public locations, or mailed to surrounding property owners within 300 feet of the official development project site. We went ahead and did all 3 options, including posting on the city website. The law states the contents of such posting shall include: date, time, and location of meeting, the hearing body, a general explanation of the matter, and a general description of the location of subject of hearing.

I have attached the Plan for Fiscal Analysis and updated figures to give you a better understanding of what the annexation area entails vs the tracts. The tract applications and annexation request are separate, but must happen at the same time.

Lastly, can you clarify what are the persons' objectives south of Beaumont? I did not understand that comment.

Thank you.

Subject: Canyon Ranch Annexation, Loma Linda
Ms. Matarrita,
In review of your email below creates some problems, in my mind regarding the Canyon Ranch Annexation. The Notice is in error, I understand; however I am told the Exhibit is correct. The Notice has no exhibit(s). I have to wonder what other errors are in the Notice. The Planning Commission package is not available for review at this time and I am going to be out of country through March 5. Thus I will share some of my concerns from the extremely limited information provided.

I do recall bring this up the limits of the Annexation being presented very poorly prior to the Planning Commission was given this item previously. My concerns then seemed to have been ignored. The intent of the applicant is clear and this is to get the approval of two tentative tract maps, General Plan Amendments, Zone changes, and a Variance. It appears the adjoining neighborhoods are being swept up in the mappers plans. All of this processing has been specifically for the developers approvals, but the two southerly home owners were not involved and information not provided. The persons south of Beaumont Avenue objectives have been seemingly ignored.

Regarding the Zoning; there are no hills or hillsides. See excerpt below of the referenced City Zoning. This area is flat land; but a Hillside Residential Zone is being proposed.

HILLSIDE RESIDENTIAL ZONES
Hillside Conservation (HR-C) 0-1 du/10 ac*
Rural Estates (HR-RE) 0-1 du/ac
Very Low Density Residential (HR-VL) 0-2 du/ac*
The proposed Zoning is ½ acre minimum lot size. That requirement cannot be met with the two homes on lots south of Beaumont Avenue. The requirement to expand the road right of way someday make it far worse. I believe it is inappropriate to lay down zoning that is in conflict with pre-existing and long term existing homes.

I am very concerned that this situation seems to have repeating itself. The intent to file a Negative Declaration likely focused on the new subdivisions and may not have clearly addressed creating multiple non-conforming homes and lots, among other thing. There may be options to lessen burden to the existing homeowners, for example: Meeting and communicating with owners prior to hearings. Annex as Noticed. Providing appropriate zoning for existing homes. Provide accurate exhibits and notices. Establishing additional finding to support the homes and lands “as is”. As presented and Noticed, I cannot support the Canyon Ranch Annexation.

Sincerely,
Bob Stewart, for Kaden Stewart, 26853 Beaumont Avenue, County of San Bernardino From: Lorena Matarrita <[email protected]>

Bob, the annexation includes all of the HR-VL prezoned sites, including the few below Beaumont, as indicated in the vicinity map.

The consultant was focusing on the tract map applications when it came to describing the project area.

The annexation boundaries are defined within the Fiscal Plan of Service. However, I will have her provide a correction and response to your concern. I'll send it over to her and hopefully she has a formal response by tomorrow.

Ms. Matarrita,
Thank you for your time today at the counter. There seems to be a discrepancy between the written Notice I received and a colored exhibit in circulation for the above hearing. I have attached a photo of both to this email for reference. The Notice description, from the “Project Location and Description”, states the annexation is north of Beaumont Avenue. The colored document, labeled Figure 2 and Attachment A, has a black dashed line that deviates from the Notice. Specifically lands south of Beaumont Avenue are depicted as “Proposed Annexation to the City of Loma Linda” by the black dashed line. I think the colored exhibit was part of a much earlier package for this project and likely is not current. This email to request confirmation that the Notice is correct.

Thank you. If you have any questions, do not hesitate to contact me.

Greetings, Ms Lorena
Please accept my apologies and allow me to preface this with that I lack experience in matters such as those described in correspondence I received from your office, dated February 16, 2023 of a Notice of Public Hearing specifically, for Tentative Tract Map 20403, (TTM No. P21-075) as solicited by Tim England of Highpoint Communities.

I would like to pose some questions as to the possibility of any changes to the east, (Redlands) side of the road such as the possible widening of it or the addition of a turning lane for the purpose of residents’ safety as well as that of the many commuters who use it daily primarily for work. When I read about ‘infrastructure improvements,’ I think in terms of a park, dog park and jogging trails, like those at the new nearby Citrus Trails development on California St north of Barton, which could blend into the backdrop of the south hills and the nature preserve on San Tim, perhaps some ornamental street lights similar to those erected on San Tim near Yucaipa with the new phase of homes now completed, befitting of a new community of this magnitude. It’s notable that nearby Hulda Crooks Park is already heavily used. I would like to know positive effects expected of the vacation of the extension of Bermudez St (does this mean the proposed creation of a cul de sac?) and how many entrances and exits to the development there would be and their locations, whether I would be permitted to connect to the City of Loma Linda sewer in the foreseeable future and some details as to the ‘Initial Study’ and the incorporation of mitigation measures as related to short and long term environmental effects.

I work very close to your office and would like to stop by a little early tomorrow, hoping to see a schematic or perhaps an architectural model or plan of some kind, if possible. If a picture is really worth a thousand words, it’s possible many of my questions could be answered even before the hearing begins.

It is my great hope that the San Timoteo Canyon be preserved as the jewel that it has always been to the many who have traveled it and continue to do so today, “as far as possible in its natural state” as so requested by Olivia Phelps in remembrance of her beloved sister, Caroline Stokes for whom Caroline Park was dedicated in the city of Redlands, by exercising reverence for its unique beauty, serenity and robust provisions for many forms of life.

Sincerely,
SB
