It is recommended that the City Council:
1. Introduce on first reading Council Bill #O-2025-04, waive the reading in its entirety, direct to read by title only, and set the second reading to November 18, 2025 - Ordinance Title:
AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF LOMA LINDA ADOPTING AND AMENDING THE 2025 EDITION OF THE CALIFORNIA FIRE CODE, ADOPTING AND AMENDING THE 2024 EDITION OF THE INTERNATIONAL FIRE CODE AND REPEALING CHAPTER 15.28 OF THE MUNICIPAL CODE.

A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF LOMA LINDA TO COMPLY WITH THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA HEALTH AND SAFETY CODE SECTIONS 17958, 17958.5, AND 17958.7 RELATING TO THE ADOPTION OF THE 2025 EDITION OF THE CALIFORNIA FIRE CODE
3. Introduce on first reading Council Bill #O-2025-05, waive the reading in its entirety, direct to read by title only and set the second reading to November 18, 2025 - Ordinance Title:
AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF LOMA LINDA ADOPTING AND AMENDING THE 2025 EDITION OF THE CALIFORNIA WILDLAND-URBAN INTERFACE CODE BACKGROUND:
The California Building Standards Commission adopts and amends the California Building Standards Code, California Code of Regulations, Title 24 (CCR, T-24), incorporating the latest editions of model codes for use throughout the State. The 2025 California Building Standards Code consists of multiple parts, including Part 9- the California Fire Code (CFC), based on the 2024 Edition of the International Fire Code (IFC) published by the International Code Council-, which will take effect on January 1, 2026. The Building Standards Law and the State Housing Law allow local governments to amend CCR, T-24 based on express findings that the amendments are necessary due to local climatic, geological or topographical conditions. The locally adopted amendments take effect upon filing, with the applicable findings, with the California Building Standards Commission.
The 2025 CFC applies to all state-regulated occupancies (buildings); but, since there are occupancies, procedures and conditions that are not regulated by the state, local government may also adopt the corresponding model code upon which the CFC is based (i.e., the IFC).
ANALYSIS:
The adoption of the latest edition of the model fire code every three years is a standard procedure utilized by the City of Loma Linda since incorporation. This cycle the model fire code utilized by the California Building Standards Commission is the 2024 Edition of the International Fire Code. Since the Building Standards Commission determined that the IFC contains certain provisions that apply to buildings throughout the state, the City has also amended those provisions as published in the CFC. Our local amendments tend to generally be consistent from adoption to adoption. However, revisions, additions and deletions are made based on need and/or the further development of language contained within the model code.
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT:
N/A
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
None anticipated.

A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF LOMA LINDA
TO COMPLY WITH THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA HEALTH AND SAFETY CODE SECTIONS 17958, 17958.5, AND 17958.7 RELATING TO THE ADOPTION OF THE 2025 EDITION OF THE CALIFORNIA FIRE CODE WHEREAS, Health and Safety Code Section 17958 and Government Code Section 50022 empowers the City to adopt by reference the California Building Standards Code, including the California Fire Code; and
WHEREAS, Health and Safety Code Section 17958.5 authorizes the City to make amendments to said California Fire Code on the basis of local climatic, geological, or topographical condition; and
WHEREAS, Health and Safety Code Section 17958.7 requires that before making any modifications or changes pursuant to Section 17958.5, the governing body of a City or County shall make an express finding of local necessity that such modifications or changes are needed; and
WHEREAS, the City Council is informed and finds that these climatic, geological and topographical conditions include, but are not limited to the following conditions:
1. The area of the City of Loma Linda receives relatively low amounts of precipitation, and experiences very low relative humidity levels and extremely high temperatures. These climatic conditions are conducive to the spread of fire. For example, during July, August and September, temperatures often exceed 100 degrees Fahrenheit. During the same months, humidity is usually less than 40 percent, and humidity measurements of less than 10 percent are not uncommon.
2. The area of the City of Loma Linda is subject to extremely strong winds, commonly referred to as “Santa Ana Winds,” which can reach speeds of more than 40 miles per hour. Extensive damage often occurs during such winds including downed trees, power lines, utility poles and utility service lines.
These conditions cause:
a) Fires;
b) Impairment of emergency apparatus access;
c) Delays in response times of emergency apparatus; and d) The depletion of apparatus readily available for fire suppression activities.
Specific amendments to the California Fire Code contained in Ordinance No. 758 pursuant to this express finding of local necessity are made to Sections:
304.1.3 Vegetation; 305.6 Sparks from Chimneys; 305.6 Outdoor Fires; 501.1 Fire Service Features; 901.11, 903.2, 903.2.8, 903.3.5.3, 903.3.5.4, 903.3.5.5, 903.4, 903.7, 903.8, 905.3.1, Fire Sprinklers; 910.2 Smoke and Heat Vents, Mechanical Smoke Exhaust Systems and Draft Curtains; 912.2 Fire Department Connections; Table 3206.2 High Piled Combustible Resolution No. XXX
Storage; 5001.5.2 Hazardous Materials Inventory Statement; 5501 Flammable Cryogenic Fluids; 5601 Retail Fireworks; Appendix B B105.2 Reduction in Required Fire-flow; and Appendix B, B105.7.1 and B105.7.2 Two points of connection creating a Fire Loop system.
3. Within the area of the City of Loma Linda there are three earthquake faults:
a) the San Jacinto Fault;
b) the Loma Linda Fault;
c) the Beaumont-Banning Fault.
Numerous other faults lie in close proximity, including the San Andreas Fault.
In the event of a severe earthquake, these faults present the potential for catastrophic damage, including extensive damage to buildings, fire, and damage to major infrastructure including water and sewer distribution lines, roadways, bridges across a major storm drain and railroad right-of-way, and other impairments to the movement of emergency apparatus.
Specific amendments to the California Fire Code contained in Ordinance No. 758 pursuant to this express finding of local necessity are made to Sections:
304.1.3 Vegetation; 305.6 Sparks from Chimneys; 305.6 Outdoor Fires; 501.1 Fire Service Features; 901.11, 903.2, 903.2.8, 903.3.5.3, 903.3.5.4, 903.3.5.5, 903.4, 903.7, 903.8, 905.3.1, Fire Sprinklers; 910.2 Smoke and Heat Vents, Mechanical Smoke Exhaust Systems and Draft Curtains; 912.2 Fire Department Connections; Table 3206.2 High Piled Combustible Storage; 5001.5.2 Hazardous Materials Inventory Statement; 5501 Flammable Cryogenic Fluids; 5601 Retail Fireworks; Appendix B B105.2 Reduction in Required Fire-flow; and Appendix B, B105.7.1 and B105.7.2 Two points of connection creating a Fire Loop system.
4. Within the area of the City of Loma Linda development has occurred and continues to occur which has resulted in severe traffic congestion during peak hours. This development includes high-rise structures, institutional, commercial, industrial and residential structures. Development has occurred within that portion of the City known as the Loma Linda Hills where roadways have been built in areas of severe topographical conditions including street and driveway grades in excess of 12%. Such traffic congestion and severe roadway conditions extend the time for emergency vehicles to reach the scene of fires and other emergencies. Such drastic changes in elevation may also at a acritical time effect water systems, delivery or pressures within the Cities water network.
Specific amendments to the California Fire Code contained in Ordinance No. 758 pursuant to this express finding of local necessity are made to Sections:
304.1.3 Vegetation; 305.6 Sparks from Chimneys; 305.6 Outdoor Fires; 501.1 Fire Service Features; 901.11, 903.2, 903.2.8, 903.3.5.3, 903.3.5.4, 903.3.5.5, 903.4, 903.7, 903.8, 905.3.1, Fire Sprinklers; 910.2 Smoke and Heat Vents, Mechanical Smoke Exhaust Systems and Draft Curtains; 912.2 Resolution No. XXX
Fire Department Connections; Table 3206.2 High Piled Combustible Storage; 5001.5.2 Hazardous Materials Inventory Statement; 5501 Flammable Cryogenic Fluids; 5601 Retail Fireworks; Appendix B B105.2 Reduction in Required Fire-flow; and Appendix B, B105.7.1 and B105.7.2 Two points of connection creating a Fire Loop system.
WHEREAS, the City Council is informed and finds that because the City is subject to the above referenced climatic, geological, and topographical conditions that amendments to the California Fire Code, 2025 Edition, are necessary to protect life and property, and that such amendments are to deal with the following issues: 1) high fire hazard areas; 2) water supplies; 3) fire extinguishing systems and sprinkler systems, and 4) the storage, handling and use of flammable and combustible liquids and hazardous materials;
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the City Council of the City of Loma Linda does hereby establish that the modifications to the 2025 California Fire Code, as outlined in Ordinance No. 787 are necessary due to local climatic, geographical and topographic conditions.
BE IT FUTHER RESOLVED that a copy of this Resolution be forwarded to the State of California Building Standards Commission;
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that a copy of this Resolution shall be incorporated and filed with Ordinance No. 787.

A. Appeal of Staff Decision by Christopher Jueden-pytel, Property Owner, 25624 State Street - Owner Request for Consideration of the Removal of a City Street Tree Due to Damage to the Property’s Water Line [CC] Meeting

RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends that City Council deny the request to remove the tree and advise the resident to pursue alternative repair methods that preserve the historic oak tree.
BACKGROUND:
The City received a request from Christopher Jueden-pytel, property owner of 25624 State St., to remove a historic oak tree located adjacent to their property. The request stems from a water leak occurring on the property owner side of the water meter. Mr. Juenen-pytel expressed concerns that the tree roots may be contributing to the leak and is seeking City approval to remove the tree as part of their repair work.
The tree in question is a mature and healthy Oak. These trees are considered part of our community’s historic and natural character.
Standard instructions were provided to the property owner that apply to all Loma Linda residents, outlining the process for repairing water service lines on the property owner side of the meter. They were also advised that they may submit a claim form if supporting documentation demonstrates that tree roots were responsible for the damage.
ANALYSIS:
Ownership/Responsibility: The leak is located above the City meter on the property owner service line. In accordance with Loma Linda Municipal Code §13.04.160(E), the property owner is responsible for all pipes and fixtures extending or lying beyond the meter or seven feet from the main, whichever is closer, shall be installed and maintained by the owner of the property.
Tree Condition: Preliminary observations and City practice indicate the oak appears healthy, there is no conclusive evidence that roots caused the leak.
Feasible Alternatives: Private line repairs can typically be completed without removing the tree using:
Root-sensitive trenching,
Rerouting the service line outside the critical root zone, or Trenchless methods (e.g., boring/sleeving) to minimize root disturbance.
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT:

5.A. Presentation on Loma Linda City Parks (City Manager)- 7:58 PM City Manager Thaipejr presented a report on the City’s parks, noting that Loma Linda has 13 parks, including the 1,689.78-acre South Hills Preserve. He provided an overview of the parks and highlighted completed improvements such as new playground equipment and surfaces, new restrooms, walking tracks, basketball, tennis, and pickleball courts, gazebos, dog parks, baseball and soccer fields, field lighting, exercise equipment along easement trails, public and banner artwork, and restoration of historic structures at Heritage Park. He also outlined several upcoming park improvements.
John Trujillo, Field Superintendent, gave a presentation on future park improvements, highlighting the addition of wellness features such as serenity trails with music speakers, which have significant wellness benefits, kinetic equipment, self-irrigation playground equipment, and LED kinetic playground equipment. Future enhancements also include a butterfly garden where the City has recently purchased 100 milkweed plants, “Art in the Park” interactive educational activities for children, creating themed playgrounds, new interactive and educational play structures, upgraded dog agility equipment, and planting more trees at the parks. He noted that grant opportunities are available to help fund these projects.
Councilmember Spencer-Hwang attended an animal show hosted by the Library. She commended the Librarian for hosting the activity and shared that, after speaking with and surveying parents at the event, many expressed interest in the City adding a splash pad and planting more shade trees near park seating areas.Continued discussion ensued with expressed support pertaining to splash pads at the park(s), but it was also noted that the City would have to investigate further the insurance and liability issues. Another item of discussion as a potential future park improvement was the development of a pedestrian trail connecting Heritage Park to Mission Elementary School. It was noted that the principal of Mission Elementary had expressed concerns about student safety when traveling along California Street to get to school. Finally, Mayor Dupper noted that the City of Highland adopted an anti-camping ordinance and suggested that the City consider reviewing this matter. He stated that with the upcoming World Cup and Olympic Games in the Los Angeles area, homelessness may become an issue that cities should be prepared to respond accordingly.
Amy Jones thanked John Trujillo for his presentation and for the support he has provided to the Community Garden. She expressed support for the butterfly garden and the planting of milkweed, pointing out of an organization that offers grant funding for plant materials for butterfly projects, but with the condition that pesticides cannot used. She stated that she would forward the information to the City.

BACKGROUND:
The City of Loma Linda is committed to enhancing community resilience and mitigating the risks associated with wildfires. To that end, a formal Request for Proposals (RFP) was issued seeking a qualified consultant to develop a comprehensive Community Wildfire Protection Plan (CWPP) in accordance with CalFire guidelines. The purpose of the CWPP is to reduce wildfire risks and ensure coordinated wildfire prevention and response strategies within the city.
This contract is the result of the $75,000 grant awarded to the City from IERCD whereby the grant funds was accepted by the City Council 8/12/25.
Following the release of the RFP, Jacob Green & Associates (JGA) was the only consultant group to respond.
ANALYSIS:
Jacob Green & Associates has submitted a proposal that demonstrates a clear understanding of the City's needs and the requirements for developing an effective CWPP. Their proposal outlines a structured, phased approach designed to deliver a comprehensive plan within 12 months.
The proposal demonstrates JGA's commitment to timely delivery through:
Detailed Project Schedule: A clear schedule (Page 21) outlines the milestones and timelines for each phase of the project, from stakeholder engagement to final deliverables. Key milestones are identified, including the kickoff meeting in October 2025, community workshops in January 2026, and the submission of the draft plan in July 2026, with the final plan delivery in October 2026.
Phased Approach: The work plan is organized into distinct phases (Collaboration and Stakeholder Engagement, Risk and Hazard Assessment, Mitigation Planning, etc.), allowing for focused effort and measurable progress.
Regular Coordination: JGA proposes monthly or bi-monthly coordination calls with an advisory group to review deliverables and shape risk and mitigation findings (Page 13).
Defined Deliverables: The proposal clearly defines the deliverables for each phase, ensuring accountability and allowing the City to track progress effectively (Page 12).
Experience and Resources: JGA has a team of experienced professionals ready to commence work, indicating their capacity to meet the proposed timelines (Pages 5-10).
The JGA proposal specifically addresses all requirements of the RFP and demonstrates an understanding of the regulations and best practices related to wildfire protection.

In addition, the City may either immediately terminate this Agreement or, if insurance is available at a reasonable cost, City may take out the necessary insurance and pay, at Contractor’s expense, the premium thereon.

10. Indemnification:
a) Defense, Indemnity and Hold Harmless. Contractor shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless the City, its present and former officers, directors, employees, agents, volunteers, mayor, staff, boards, committee and representatives, as broadly interpreted (collectively, the “Indemnified Parties”), of and from all claims, suits, demands, obligations, losses damages, sums or any other matters, threatened or presently asserted, including but not limited to all legal fees, costs of defense and litigation expenses (including legal fees, expert fees and any other costs or fees, including those of adverse parties imposed on or sought against the Indemnified Parties), arising directly or indirectly out of any liability or claim of loss or liability for personal injury, bodily injury to persons, contractual liability, errors or omissions, breach, failure to perform, damage to or loss of property, or any other loss, damage, injury or other claim of any kind or nature arising out of the work to be performed by Contractor herein, caused by or arising out of the negligent acts or omissions, or intentional misconduct or other actions, omissions or conduct of Contractor, including its subcontractors, employees, agents and other persons or entities performing work for Contractor.
b) Contractual Indemnity. To the fullest extent permitted under California law, Contractor shall contractually indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Indemnified Parties from and against any liability (including liability for claims, suits, actions, arbitration proceedings, administrative proceedings, regulatory proceedings, losses, expenses, amounts for good faith settlement, or costs of any kind, whether actual, alleged or threatened, including attorney’s fees and costs, court costs, interest, defense costs, and expert witness fees and costs), arising out of or related to, in whole or in part, the performance of this Agreement by Contractor or by any individual or entity for which Consultant is legally liable, including but not limited to Contractor’s officers, agents, independent contractors, subcontractors or affiliated or related entities and/or its or their employees, agents and representatives, including all negligent acts or omissions, or intentional misconduct or other actions, omissions to act or conduct of Contractor, including its subcontractors, employees, agents and other persons or entities performing work for Contractor. Indemnification shall include any claim that Contractor or Contractor’s employees or agents, are or may be considered and treated to be employees of the City or are entitled to any employee benefits from City, including but not limited to those available under Public Employees Retirement Law. The obligation to indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Indemnified Parties shall apply to all liability as defined above regardless of whether the Indemnified Parties were or are alleged to have been negligent, except that it shall not apply to claims arising from the sole negligence or willful intentional misconduct of the Indemnified Parties. Contractor’s obligation to defend the Indemnified Parties is not contingent upon there being an acknowledgement of or determination of the merit of any claims, liability, demands, causes of action, suits, losses, expenses, errors, omissions and/or costs. c) Subcontractors and Indemnification. Contractor agrees to and shall obtain executed indemnity agreements in favor of the Indemnified Parties with provisions identical to those set forth from each and every Subcontractor, Sub consultant or other person or entity involved by, for, with, or on behalf of Contractor in the performance of any aspect of this Agreement. In the event Contractor fails to obtain such indemnity obligations, Contractor shall be fully responsible for each and every Subcontractor, Subconsultant or other person or entity in terms of defense, indemnity and hold harmless obligations in favor of the Indemnified Parties. This obligation to indemnify and defend the Indemnified Parties is binding on the successors, assigns or heirs of Contractor and shall survive the full performance or termination of this Agreement. These indemnification provisions are independent of and shall not in any way be limited or superseded by the insurance requirements and insurancerelated provisions and all damages, fines, or penalties or loss of theft to the property of the City arising out of or related in any way to the negligent acts or omissions or intentional misconduct or other Contractor conduct or activities and/or conduct or activities of Contractor’s officers agents independent contractors, subcontractors or affiliated or related entities and/or its or their employees, agents and representatives, whether such actions, omissions to act, negligence or intentional conduct is or was authorized by this Agreement or not. City assumes no responsibility whatsoever for any property placed on the premises of City. Contractor further agrees to waive all rights of subrogation against the Indemnified Parties. d) City Lost or Damaged Property Theft. Contractor further agrees to pay or cause to be paid for the indemnified parties’ benefit for any of this agreement.
e) Non-Waiver and Non-Exhaustion of City’s Further Rights and Remedies. No aspect of this provision shall in any way limit or effect the rights of the Indemnified Parties against the Contractor under the terms of this Agreement or otherwise. The indemnification provisions shall apply regardless of whether this Agreement is executed after Contractor begins the work and shall extend to claims arising after this Agreement is performed or terminated, including a dispute as to the termination of Contractor. The indemnity obligations of Contractor shall continue until it is determined by final judgment that the claim against the City and any Indemnified Parties is determined by final judgment and after exhaustion of any rights ofappeal. f) Limitations on Scope of Indemnity. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Contractor shall not be responsible for indemnification for claims or losses caused solely by the negligence or intentional wrongdoing of Indemnified Parties. Further, the indemnity provided shall be interpreted as broadly as permitted under California law and as to agreements between parties, and shall if required be reformed to be consistent with those laws to protect and save this provision for the protection of the Indemnified Parties.

F. Adopt Council Bill #R-2025-37 - A Resolution Modifying Conditions of Employment, Benefits, and Salary for the Members of the Teamsters (Public Works) and Teamsters (Administration) Effective October 19, 2025 (Administration) [CC]

City Council
From

T Jarb Thaipejr, City Manager
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council:
1. Adopt Council Bill No. R-2025-37, waive the reading in its entirety and read by title only a Resolution approving the negotiated adjustments to employee compensation and benefits. Adoption of the resolution will authorize updates to the applicable Memorandum of Understanding (MOUs), Benefit Profile, and Citywide Salary Schedule; and
2. Approve the Supplemental Appropriations as noted under the Financial Impact to implement the agreed-upon changes.
BACKGROUND:
The City engaged in negotiations with Public Works Employees Bargaining Unit, Teamsters Local 1932 (Teamsters Public Works) and Professional & Administrative Employees Bargaining Unit, Teamsters Local 1932 (Teamsters Admin) regarding terms and conditions of employment. These discussions led to a three (3) year tentative agreement for both groups, effective from July 1, 2025, through June 30, 2028, which has been ratified by the employees and is now presented to the Council for approval.
Salary Schedule: California Code of Regulations, Title 2, Section 570.5 requires governing bodies of local agencies contracting with CalPERS to approve and adopt a publicly available pay schedule at a public meeting.
The supplemental appropriation for the salary and benefits of the Engineering Technician I classification, approved by the City Council on August 12, 2025, was not correctly reflected in the original recommendation; therefore, it has been included in this report for approval.
ANALYSIS:
The City of Loma Linda recognizes its ability to provide high quality public services relies on attracting and retaining qualified, experienced employees. In order to remain competitive with other cities, it is important that the City’s salary and benefit offerings are consistent with those provided by comparable municipalities. Maintaining competitive compensation is a key part of the City’s strategy to continue delivering reliable and effective services to the community.

City of Loma Linda | Professional & Administrative Bargaining Unit Teamsters MOU 2025-2028 8
2. If the maximum base salary rate of the new class is the same as the maximum rate of the class to which the position was previously allocated the employee’s salary rate and merit salary review date shall not change.

J. SALARY ON RE-EMPLOYMENT
An employee re-employed after a layoff in a position in the same class s/he occupied when laid off shall receive the same salary step held upon layoff.
K. EQUITY SALARY ADJUSTMENTS
If in the opinion of the City Manager, the application of rules governing within-range salary progression or placement of an employee within a salary range will result in an employee receiving an inequitably low rate as compared to other employees the City Manager may raise the affected employee’s salary to the step s/he deems equitable. Such action shall not be contrary to the general intent and spirit of these rules.

G. Adopt Council Bill #R-2025-38 - A Resolution to Authorize Submittal of Applications for all City Eligible Community Development Block Grants (Administration) [CC] Meeting

Lorena Matarrita, Community Development Director

RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council adopt Council Bill No. R-2025-38 authorizing the submittal of application(s) for all Community Development Block Grants (CDBG) for which the City of Loma Linda is eligible and further authorize and empower the City Manager, or his designee, to execute all grant documents necessary and associated with said grants for a period of five (5) years from the adoption of this resolution.
BACKGROUND:
For many years the County of San Bernardino, through the Department of Community Development and Housing (CDH), has administered the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) grant funding to encourage and provide decent housing, suitable living environments and expand economic opportunities. The program focus is to address or eliminate slums and blight, urgent community needs, such as natural disasters, especially benefitting low-to moderate-income persons. Our funding amount based on population and needs has been averaging $131,786 with 15% allowed for public service activities. We typically utilize this funding for the library literacy program, Family Services Association (FSA) senior lunch program or other submitted and vetted activities. The application process now requires documentation regarding authorization of the governing body.
ANALYSIS:
It is not unusual for the Federal or State programs to require documentation for grant funding as a program matures. This resolution will cover all CDBG funding requests for a period of five (5) years. We anticipate a continued relationship with CDH in our partnership to address community needs.

I. Authorize a Supplemental Appropriation from the Water Enterprise Fund Balance of $555,800 for Emergency Water Purchases Related to the Richardson Treatment Plant Outage (Public Works) [CC] Meeting

Agenda Group
Consent Calendar Item: 5I.
To
City Council
From
Julia Loeffert, Executive Assistant
Via
T Jarb Thaipejr, City Manager
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council authorize a Supplemental Appropriation in the amount of $555,800 from the Water Enterprise Fund Balance to Account No. 4657010-51130 (Water Purchases) to provide sufficient budget authority for unanticipated water purchase costs resulting from the ongoing outage of the Richardson Treatment Plant.
BACKGROUND:
In early April 2025, the Richardson Treatment Plant (RTP) sustained significant electrical and control system damage due to a lightning strike, which rendered the facility inoperable. The RTP is a key component of the City’s water production and treatment operations, and its loss substantially reduced the City’s ability to meet system-wide water demand.
The repairs to the Richardson Treatment Plant were addressed under a Staff Report presented to City Council on May 13, 2025. While those repairs are underway, the facility remains offline, requiring the City to purchase water from the City of San Bernardino Municipal Water Department to maintain service reliability and meet demand, particularly during the high-use summer season.
ANALYSIS:
The Water Production Department includes a budgeted line item for water purchases under Account No. 4657010- 51130. However, the amount appropriated for Fiscal Year 2025-26 did not anticipate the prolonged reliance on purchased water resulting from the RTP outage.
To date, the City has paid $411,744.03 in unbudgeted water purchase costs to the City of San Bernardino Municipal Water Department. Based on current system demands and projected needs, staff estimates that an additional $144,000 will be required to fund water purchases through the remainder of the fiscal year, for a total of $555,800.
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT:

FINANCIAL IMPACT:
Approval of this item will authorize a Supplemental Appropriation in the amount of $555,800 from the Water Enterprise Fund Balance to Account No. 4657010-51130 (Water Purchases).

J. Authorize Purchase from SHI International for Replacement Security Cameras for $20,457.16 (Information Systems) [CC]
Meeting
Tuesday, October 14, 2025, 7:00 PM
Agenda Group
Consent Calendar Item: 5J.
From
Kyle MacGavin, Information Systems Manager
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that City Council:
1. Authorizes the purchase of replacement cameras from SHI International Corp. in the amount of $20,457.16 and approve a 10% contingency allocation of $2,046.00; and
2. Authorize the City Manager or his designee to execute all necessary documents.
BACKGROUND:
The City currently maintains dozens of cameras monitoring various locations for security and safety, some of which have exceeded their life expectancy and require an upgrade to a modern platform. The approved 2025 budget includes $50,000 allocated under 58845 of City Wide accounts for this project.
ANALYSIS:
Request for quotations were sent to three firms in September 2025: SHI, CDW, and Synoptek. Quotations were requested in lieu of a Request for Proposal (RFP) due to the cost being under $25,000 and the cooperative purchasing agreement OMNIA Partners being exercised. The request covered the replacement of four cameras at City Hall, four at Corporation Yard, and one at the Richardson Treatment Plant. All three firms submitted competitive quotations, which were received, reviewed and evaluated. The quotations ranged from $20,457.16 to $21,432.55. After evaluation, SHI was determined to offer the best available pricing for the equipment purchase with a total cost of $20,457.16. The City will be doing the installation of the cameras. The 10% contingency allocation of $2,046.00 will be for any unforeseen materials required for installation.

AMENDED IN ASSEMBLY MARCH 24, 2025
CALIFORNIA LEGISLATURE— 2025–2026 REGULAR SESSION
Introduced by Assembly Member Michelle Rodriguez
December 02, 2024
An act to add Sections 653.20 and 653.22 to the Penal Code, relating to crimes.
LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST
AB 63, as amended, Michelle Rodriguez. Loitering with intent to commit prostitution.
Existing law, until January 1, 2023, prohibited loitering in a public place with the intent to commit prostitution, as defined, and made that crime a misdemeanor.
This bill would reinstate those provisions and would prohibit California law enforcement, as defined, from making an arrest pursuant to these provisions solely based on the individual’s gender identity or sexual preference. orientation. The bill would also require law enforcement, prior to making an arrest of the individual pursuant to these provisions, to document their attempts to offer the individual services. By creating a new crime, and by imposing new duties on local law enforcement, this bill would impose a state-mandated local program.
The California Constitution requires the state to reimburse local agencies and school districts for certain costs mandated by the state. Statutory provisions establish procedures for making that reimbursement.
This bill would provide that with regard to certain mandates no reimbursement is required by this act for a specified reason.
With regard to any other mandates, this bill would provide that, if the Commission on State Mandates determines that the bill contains costs so mandated by the state, reimbursement for those costs shall be made pursuant to the statutory provisions noted above.

L. Consider and Provide Direction to Staff to Proceed with Improvements Along the Auto Center Corridor Using Special Projects Construction Funds with Eligible Improvements that may include Landscaping Enhancements, Repairs to Private Access Roads Where Necessary to Support Circulation and Safety, and Coordinated Signage Updates (Administration) [CC]
Meeting
Tuesday, October 14, 2025, 7:00 PM
Agenda Group
Consent Calendar Item: 5L.
From
Sonia Fabela, Finance Director
RECOMMENDATION:
Consider and provide direction to staff to proceed with improvements along the Auto Center corridor using Special Projects Construction Funds. Eligible improvements may include landscaping enhancements, repairs to private access roads where necessary to support circulation and safety, and coordinated signage updates.
BACKGROUND:
In September 2025, property owners along the Redlands Boulevard Auto Center corridor contacted the City to request a partnership in addressing several long-standing infrastructure and aesthetic needs vital to the continued success of this district. In October, City staff met with the property owners to formally review these concerns.
The Auto Center is home to Spreen Honda Loma Linda, Spreen Mazda Loma Linda, Metro Hyundai (formerly Inland Empire Hyundai), and Quaid Harley-Davidson. It serves as a regional automotive hub. It generates significant sales tax revenue, provides local employment, and attracts regional visitors to the City of Loma Linda.
Current Needs and Conditions
The Auto Center corridor is showing signs of decline that, if not addressed, could undermine its regional competitiveness. Key areas of need include:
Street Resurfacing and Safety Enhancements: Internal access roads are cracked and deteriorated, creating a negative first impression and potential safety hazards. Repaving and circulation improvements will improve functionality and customer experience. In addition, Redlands Boulevard (adjacent to the dealerships and access roads) requires grinding and resurfacing with rubberized asphalt to accommodate the tens of thousands of daily drivers.
Landscaping Improvements: Entryways and frontage areas require updated planting, trimming, and design to create a more welcoming and visually consistent environment that reflects the City’s character and branding.
Signage Upgrades: Existing signage is outdated, lacks visibility, and does not adequately promote the district.
The 90-foot pylon sign along the I-10 Freeway currently has broken panels and lights. Modernized signage will improve visibility, wayfinding, and reinforce the Auto Center’s role as a regional automotive destination.
Community and Economic Benefits
Strategic investment in the Auto Center corridor will produce measurable benefits to both the business community and the City as a whole, including:
Attracting additional regional customers.
Increasing sales tax revenue through higher sales volumes.
Enhancing the aesthetics, branding, and reputation of the City.
As one of Loma Linda’s most visible commercial districts, the Auto Center is one of the key contributor to the City’s fiscal health. Improvements to its appearance, safety, and accessibility will support the long-term viability of existing dealerships and strengthen the City’s broader economic development efforts.
FINDINGS:
The proposed improvements to the Auto Center corridor are consistent with the General Plan’s Economic Development Element. Using Special Projects Construction Funds for resurfacing, landscaping, and signage updates will protect the City’s fiscal health by maintaining one of its highest sales tax–producing districts. The action also supports policies to encourage business growth and expansion by assisting with local improvements that enhance property value and competitiveness.
By investing in corridor beautification, signage, and urban design by the Auto Center corridor, the City advances its policy to enhance major arterials and community entries and to foster a climate in which businesses can prosper.
Locating these improvements along Redlands Boulevard is consistent with the policy to attract and retain regionalserving retail and employment uses in key corridors.
Overall, the project is reasonably related to improving safety, circulation, aesthetics, and economic vitality, thereby serving a valid public purpose.
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT:
Not applicable.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
The fiscal impact of this project has not yet been determined, as staff is currently requesting City Council’s consideration and direction to proceed. Once a detailed scope of work, project plan, and necessary agreements are developed, the item will be brought back to City Council for review and approval of funding.
The project will be funded through the City’s Special Projects Construction Fund. This fund is specifically designated for special or extraordinary projects, activities, and allocations recommended by staff and determined necessary by City Council.
