20-05 (“Project”) was identified as a priority infrastructure need to support current and expanding development in the area.
In 2023, staff submitted an application in response to a call for projects issued by Congressman Ken Calvert’s office to identify projects that are aligned with local transportation priorities and may be eligible to receive funding through Cycle 3 of the Community Project Funding/Congressionally Directed Spending (CPFCDS) Program. The City requested funding assistance in the amount of $2.7 million for the Project Approval and Environmental Document (PA&ED) phase of the Project.
In August 2024, Caltrans notified staff that the Project was selected to receive federal funding for the PA&ED phase of the Project in the amount of $2.2 million through the CPFCDS program.
Caltrans requires the Program Supplement Agreement (PSA) to be executed prior to beginning the PA&ED phase of the Project to be eligible for reimbursement through the identified program.
The PSA outlines the specific requirements that must be followed in order to remain in compliance with Caltrans Local Assistance Procedures and to receive the identified federal funding.
The amount of the proposed Agreement exceeds the City Manager’s signing authority. Pursuant to Menifee Municipal Code §3.12.040, any contract amount that exceeds the City Manager’s signing authority shall be approved by the City Council.
STRATEGIC PLAN OBJECTIVE
Connectivity and Mobility
FISCAL IMPACT
The fiscal impact of the proposed PSA is for a total amount not-to-exceed $2,200,000. The acceptance of the federal grant would result in a fiscal impact of $2,200,000 in revenues from the CPFCDS Program within the Grant Fund (2301-17038-441000) that would offset the appropriation in expenditures within the Grant Fund (2301-PWD-CIPS-760000) for the transportation Project. The summary of Project appropriations can be found in Table 1 below.

TOTAL $2,200,000 $2,200,000
The federal CPFCDS Program grant requires the City to provide a local match of $2,700,000, which is available in the existing Project budget within the Road and Bridge Benefit District (RBBD) – Scott Road Fund and the Developer Impact Fee (DIF) Citywide – Circulation Fund, as summarized in Table 2 on the following page.

CPFCDSL-5483(015)
1. A. The ADMINISTERING AGENCY will advertise, award and administer this project in accordance with the current published Local Assistance Procedures Manual.
B. ADMINISTERING AGENCY agrees that it will only proceed with work authorized for specific phase(s) with an "Authorization to Proceed" and will not proceed with future phase(s) of this project prior to receiving an "Authorization to Proceed" from the STATE for that phase(s) unless no further State or Federal funds are needed for those future phase(s).
C. STATE and ADMINISTERING AGENCY agree that any additional funds which might be made available by future Federal obligations will be encumbered on this PROJECT by use of a STATE-approved "Authorization to Proceed" and Finance Letter. ADMINISTERING AGENCY agrees that Federal funds available for reimbursement will be limited to the amounts obligated by the Federal Highway Administration.
D. Award information shall be submitted by the ADMINISTERING AGENCY to the District Local Assistance Engineer within 60 days of project contract award and prior to the submittal of the ADMINISTERING AGENCY'S first invoice for the construction contract.
Failure to do so will cause a delay in the State processing invoices for the construction phase.
Attention is directed to Section 15.6 "Award Package" of the Local Assistance Procedures Manual.
E. ADMINISTERING AGENCY agrees, as a minimum, to submit invoices at least once every six months commencing after the funds are encumbered for each phase by the execution of this Project Program Supplement Agreement, or by STATE's approval of an applicable Finance Letter. STATE reserves the right to suspend future authorizations/obligations for Federal aid projects, or encumbrances for State funded projects, as well as to suspend invoice payments for any on-going or future project by ADMINISTERING AGENCY if PROJECT costs have not been invoiced by ADMINISTERING AGENCY for a six-month period.
If no costs have been invoiced for a six-month period, ADMINISTERING AGENCY agrees to submit for each phase a written explanation of the absence of PROJECT activity along with target billing date and target billing amount.
ADMINISTERING AGENCY agrees to submit the final report documents that collectively constitute a "Report of Expenditures" within one hundred eighty (180) days of PROJECT completion. Failure of ADMINISTERING AGENCY to submit a "Final Report of Expenditures" within 180 days of PROJECT completion will result in STATE imposing sanctions upon ADMINISTERING AGENCY in accordance with the current Local Assistance Procedures Manual.

F. Administering Agency shall not discriminate on the basis of race, religion, age, disability, color, national origin, or sex in the award and performance of any Federal-assisted contract or in the administration of its DBE Program Implementation Agreement. The Administering Agency shall take all necessary and reasonable steps under 49 CFR Part 26 to ensure nondiscrimination in the award and administration of Federal-assisted contracts. The Administering Agency's DBE Implementation Agreement is incorporated by reference in this Agreement. Implementation of the DBE Implementation Agreement, including but not limited to timely reporting of DBE commitments and utilization, is a legal obligation and failure to carry out its terms shall be treated as a violation of this Agreement. Upon notification to the Administering Agency of its failure to carry out its DBE Implementation Agreement, the State may impose sanctions as provided for under 49 CFR Part 26 and may, in appropriate cases, refer the matter for enforcement under 18 U.S.C. 1001 and/or the Program Fraud Civil Remedies Act of 1986 (31 U.S.C. 3801 et seq.).
G. Any State and Federal funds that may have been encumbered for this project are available for disbursement for limited periods of time. For each fund encumbrance the limited period is from the start of the fiscal year that the specific fund was appropriated within the State Budget Act to the applicable fund Reversion Date shown on the State approved project finance letter. Per Government Code Section 16304, all project funds not liquidated within these periods will revert unless an executed Cooperative Work Agreement extending these dates is requested by the ADMINISTERING AGENCY and approved by the California Department of Finance.
ADMINISTERING AGENCY should ensure that invoices are submitted to the District Local Assistance Engineer at least 75 days prior to the applicable fund Reversion Date to avoid the lapse of applicable funds. Pursuant to a directive from the State Controller's Office and the Department of Finance; in order for payment to be made, the last date the District Local Assistance Engineer can forward an invoice for payment to the Department's Local Programs Accounting Office for reimbursable work for funds that are going to revert at the end of a particular fiscal year is May 15th of the particular fiscal year. Notwithstanding the unliquidated sums of project specific State and Federal funding remaining and available to fund project work, any invoice for reimbursement involving applicable funds that is not received by the Department's Local Programs Accounting Office at least 45 days prior to the applicable fixed fund Reversion Date will not be paid. These unexpended funds will be irrevocably reverted by the Department's Division of Accounting on the applicable fund Reversion Date.
H. As a condition for receiving federal-aid highway funds for the PROJECT, the Administering Agency certifies that NO members of the elected board, council, or other key decision makers are on the Federal Government Exclusion List. Exclusions can be found at www.sam.gov. 3Page of 7Program Supplement 08-5483F15-F008- ISTEA

SUBJECT: Agreement with Waste Management for the Procurement of Recovered Organic Waste for Senate Bill 1383 Compliance MEETING DATE: April 2, 2025
TO: Mayor and City Council
PREPARED BY: Kori Jones, Senior Management Analyst
REVIEWED BY: Rebekah Kramer, Deputy City Manager
APPROVED BY: Armando G. Villa, City Manager
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
RECOMMENDED ACTION
1. Approve and authorize the City Manager to execute a Procurement Agreement with USA Waste of California, Inc (Waste Management) for California Senate Bill 1383 required procurement of recovered organic waste products for a total not-to-exceed amount of $122,900 through December 1, 2029; and
2. Authorize exemption from bidding based upon nature of the supplies or equipment, formal bidding is not likely to result in the lowest price pursuant to Menifee Municipal Code Section
3.12.070.
DISCUSSION
California Senate Bill 1383 (SB 1383), enacted in 2016, is a statewide initiative designed to combat climate change by reducing methane emissions from organic waste decomposition in landfills. Methane is a potent greenhouse gas, more than 25 times as effective as carbon dioxide at trapping heat in the atmosphere. To address this, SB 1383 mandates a 75% reduction in organic waste disposal by 2025 (compared to 2014 levels) and requires that 20% of edible food currently discarded be recovered and redistributed to those in need.
To meet these goals, all California jurisdictions must establish and enforce organic waste collection programs for residents and businesses. This ensures that food scraps, yard trimmings, and paper products are diverted from landfills and processed into compost, mulch, or renewable energy sources. Additionally, jurisdictions must meet annual procurement targets by purchasing recovered organic waste products, thereby fostering a sustainable market for recycled materials.
These targets, determined by CalRecycle and updated every five years, are based on per capita calculations. For Menifee, the procurement target is 5,183 tons for 2024 and 7,975 tons for 2025, with new targets anticipated in 2026.

Agreement with Waste Management for Procurement

In September 2024, California enacted Assembly Bills 2346 and 2902, expanding the ways jurisdictions can meet their procurement targets. These laws allow edible food recovery programs, commercial landscaping projects, and other alternative initiatives to count toward compliance, giving cities more flexibility in meeting their obligations. With additional guidance from CalRecycle expected later this year, Menifee staff will continue exploring opportunities to minimize procurement costs while fulfilling state requirements.
Recognizing the importance of community participation in SB 1383 implementation, the City has made public outreach and education a top priority. Through the MenifeeRecycles public education campaign, the City has engaged residents and businesses with community workshops, school outreach programs, and business compliance guides. Bilingual informational materials, social media engagement, and direct mail campaigns have helped spread awareness about proper organic waste disposal and food recovery initiatives. These efforts have been supported by CalRecycle Local Assistance Grant funding, with $141,516 awarded in 2022 and an additional $292,997 secured in 2024. By educating the community and promoting sustainable waste management practices, the City is ensuring a smooth transition to full SB 1383 compliance.
To fully comply with SB 1383, the City must not only educate the public but also enter into a procurement agreement to meet its state-mandated organic waste procurement targets. As the City’s current service provider for solid waste and recycling services under the franchise agreement, Waste Management (WM) is well positioned to facilitate this procurement process efficiently. By leveraging its existing operational capacity and industry expertise, WM can integrate the procurement of recovered organic waste materials into the City’s overall waste management strategy. Staff recommends that the City Council approve and authorize execution of this agreement to ensure compliance while taking advantage of cost-effective procurement strategies and recent legislative flexibility.
WM was selected due to its existing infrastructure, industry experience, and ability to provide procurement services at below-market rates. As the City’s current franchise hauler, WM has the operational capacity to efficiently manage the procurement of recovered organic waste products without requiring additional logistical changes. Staff conducted a market review and determined that alternative vendors were unlikely to provide significant cost savings. Due to the specialized nature of SB 1383 procurement, a limited number of vendors provide these services in California.
Given these factors, a formal bidding process was unlikely to yield a better cost-effective solution.
Staff requests a bidding exemption in accordance with Menifee Municipal Code Section 3.12.070, as formal bidding is not likely to result in a lower price.
This agreement provides a structured and cost-effective approach to meeting the City's procurement obligations. Under the proposed agreement, WM would procure organic waste products on behalf of the City under the following terms:
•Annual Review: The City and WM would meet and confer each year by June 30 to determine the amount of material that could be procured at no cost to the City. •Additional Procurement: If the City is unable to meet its procurement target through other methods, WM would procure the remaining balance at a set rate, adjusted annually based on the Consumer Price Index (CPI-U) for Garbage and Trash Collection.

•2024 Procurement Commitment: WM has certified procurement of 5,183.67 tons of compost/mulch on behalf of the City to meet the 2024 target. Of this, 50% was procured at no cost, while the remaining tonnage was procured at the negotiated rate of $9.45 per ton.
•2025 Procurement Rate: $12 per ton, subject to CPI adjustments and extraordinary industry conditions as outlined in the agreement. If the City does not formally deny an extraordinary rate adjustment within the 15-day review period, the adjustment would be considered accepted by default, unless otherwise negotiated. •Extraordinary Rate Adjustments: Any proposed rate adjustments outside of CPI increases must be accompanied by detailed cost justifications from WM, allowing City staff sufficient time to evaluate and respond.
Staff would continue monitoring procurement targets beyond 2026 and would explore additional funding opportunities, including state grants, to offset potential cost increases. In the event that procurement targets are not met, staff would work with CalRecycle to explore alternative compliance strategies and seek grant funding to minimize potential penalties.
The proposed agreement provides a structured approach to meeting procurement mandates while maximizing cost savings through a competitive per-ton rate and leveraging grant funding.
Table 1 below outlines anticipated costs based on procurement needs, availability of no-cost procurement options, and projected per-ton rates.

The actual annual expenditure is based on a variety of factors including industry conditions, amount of procurement tonnage required to satisfy state-mandated procurement target, and the cities’ ability to offset this procurement amount through alternate means. To address these potential fluctuations, staff has requested to encumber the total amount of grant funding available to support this effort in Fiscal Year (FY) 2024/2025, year 1 of the agreement. Unused grant funds would be carried over to the following fiscal year. Staff would bring back for Council consideration, any new funding requests and/or future modifications to this agreement.

SUBJECT: Agreement with Dokken Engineering for Environmental and Civil Design Services for the Romoland Elementary School – Active Transportation Program Project
MEETING DATE: April 2, 2025
TO: Mayor and City Council
PREPARED BY: Diego Guillen, Senior Engineer
REVIEWED BY: Nick Fidler, Public Works Director
APPROVED BY: Armando G. Villa, City Manager
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
RECOMMENDED ACTION
1. Approve and authorize the City Manager to execute a Professional Services Agreement with Dokken Engineering for Environmental and Civil Design Services for the Romoland Elementary School – Active Transportation Program (ATP) project for a total not-to-exceed amount of $583,715; and
2. Adopt a budget amendment resolution appropriating $527,000 in revenues and expenditures in Grant Fund (Fund 2301) from the California Department of Transportation’s ATP Cycle 6 Program for the Project Specifications & Estimates (PS&E) phase of the Project.
DISCUSSION
The Romoland Elementary School – ATP project, Capital Improvement Program (CIP) Project No. 24-04 (“Project”) would construct pedestrian improvements within the vicinity of Romoland Elementary School. Generally, the Project area is located north of Highway 74, south of Watson Road, and west of Antelope Road. The Project would close a critical gap in the existing pedestrian infrastructure and provide safe access to the nearby school. The proposed improvements would enhance safety along the major access routes to Romoland Elementary School in alignment with the City’s Active Transportation Plan. The estimated total cost of the Project is just over $5.5 million.
On November 1, 2023, City Council accepted the California Department of Transportation’s (“Caltrans”) ATP Cycle 6 grant funds and adopted Resolution No. 23-1368, authorizing the City Manager to execute grant-related documents. The City Council also approved an appropriation of $131,000 to the Project’s budget to support the Project Approval & Environmental Document (PA&ED) phase. Per Caltrans’ requirements, the grant funding would be allocated by phase as Item Title: 10.9

TOTAL $4,880,000 $680,825 $5,560,825
On May 1, 2024, City Council approved a Professional Services Agreement (PSA) with Dokken Engineering (“Consultant”) for environmental and design support services for the PA&ED phase of the Project. Environmental requirements have been completed, and corresponding documents have been approved and submitted to the required agencies. The Project is now ready to progress to the PS&E phase of the Project, and Caltrans has provided authorization to proceed.
The amount of the proposed Professional Services Agreement (“Agreement”) exceeds the City Manager’s signing authority. Pursuant to Menifee Municipal Code §3.12.040, any contract amount that exceeds the City Manager’s signing authority shall be approved by the City Council.
STRATEGIC PLAN OBJECTIVE
Safe and Vibrant Community
FISCAL IMPACT
The fiscal impact of the proposed PSA for the PS&E phase with the Consultant is for a total amount not-to-exceed $583,715. The ATP grant funds were previously accepted, and the appropriation of the state grant funds for the PS&E phase would result in a fiscal impact of $527,000 in revenues within the Grant Fund (2301-17003-441002) that would offset the appropriation in expenditures within the Grant Fund (2301-PWD-CIPS-760020) for the street improvement Project, as summarized in Tables 2 below.

expenses as of the date of written notice of termination. Consultant shall maintain adequate logs and timesheets in order to verify costs and reimbursable expenses incurred to that date.

Except as otherwise provided, Consultant shall, at its sole cost and expense, provide all facilities and equipment necessary to perform the services required by this Agreement.

SECTION 4. INSURANCE REQUIREMENTS.
Before beginning any work under this Agreement, Consultant, at its own cost and expense, shall procure the types and amounts of insurance listed below and provide certificates of insurance, indicating that Consultant has obtained or currently maintains insurance that meets the requirements of this Section and which is satisfactory, in all respects, to City.

Verification of the required insurance shall be submitted and made part of this Agreement prior to execution. Consultant acknowledges the insurance policy must cover inter-insured suits between City and other insureds.

SUBJECT: Agreement with Dokken Engineering for the Environmental and Civil Design Services for the Watson Road at Harvest Valley Elementary School – Active Transportation Program Project
MEETING DATE: April 2, 2025
TO: Mayor and City Council
PREPARED BY: Diego Guillen, Senior Engineer
REVIEWED BY: Nick Fidler, Public Works Director
APPROVED BY: Armando G. Villa, City Manager
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
RECOMMENDED ACTION
1. Approve and authorize the City Manager to execute a Professional Services Agreement with Dokken Engineering for Environmental and Civil Design Services for the Watson Road at Harvest Valley Elementary School – Active Transportation Program (ATP) project for a total not-to-exceed amount of $661,070; and
2. Adopt a budget amendment resolution appropriating $1,483,000 in revenues and expenditures in Grant Fund (Fund 2301) from the California Department of Transportation’s ATP Cycle 6 Program for the Project Specifications & Estimates (PS&E) and Right-of-Way (ROW) phases of the Project.
DISCUSSION
The Watson Road at Harvest Valley Elementary School – ATP project, Capital Improvement Program (CIP) Project No. 24-15 (“Project”) would construct sidewalks, crosswalks, bicycle lanes, and ADA ramps along Watson Road and Briggs Road. The proposed improvements would enhance safety along the major access routes to Harvest Valley Elementary School in alignment with the City’s Active Transportation Plan. The estimated total cost of the Project is just over $5.2 million.
On November 1, 2023, City Council accepted the California Department of Transportation’s (“Caltrans”) ATP Cycle 6 grant funds and adopted Resolution No. 23-1369, authorizing the City Manager to execute grant-related documents. City Council also approved an appropriation of $124,000 to the Project’s budget to support the Project Approval & Environmental Document (PA&ED) phase. Per Caltrans’ requirements, the grant funding would be allocated by phase as Item Title: 10.10

TOTAL $4,354,000 $876,000 $5,230,000
On May 1, 2024, City Council approved a Professional Services Agreement (PSA) with Dokken Engineering (“Consultant”) for environmental and design support services for the PA&ED and ROW Engineering phases of the Project. Environmental requirements have been completed, and corresponding documents have been approved and submitted to the required agencies.
The Project is now ready to progress to the PS&E and ROW phases of the Project, and Caltrans has provided authorization to proceed.
Included in the Consultant’s scope of work for the PS&E phase would include utility coordination and the development of the project specifications, final plans, and cost estimates to prepare the Project for formal bidding for the construction phase. The PS&E phase of the Project is anticipated to cost a total of $498,245.00
The ROW phase would require the Consultant to conduct assessments of properties located within the Project area that may be impacted by the proposed improvements. The assessments would include obtaining title reports to determine fair market value, zoning laws, and legal status of the property. Coordination with property owners would also be included in the Consultant’s scope of work related to the ROW phase. These initial ROW Engineering costs are anticipated to cost a total of $162,825.00. The remaining ROW funding would be used to acquire any property necessary to proceed with the construction phase of the project and would be determined once all property assessments and negotiations were finalized.
The total costs for the PS&E and ROW Engineering tasks are expected to cost $661,070.
The amount of the proposed PSA exceeds the City Manager’s signing authority. Pursuant to Menifee Municipal Code §3.12.040, any contract amount that exceeds the City Manager’s signing authority shall be approved by the City Council.

FISCAL IMPACT
The total fiscal impact of the proposed PSA for the PS&E phase with the Consultant is for a total amount not-to-exceed $661,070. The ATP grant funds were previously accepted and the appropriation of the grant funds for the PS&E and ROW phases would result in a fiscal impact of $1,483,000 in revenues within the Grant Fund (2301-17003-441002) that would offset the appropriation in expenditures within the Grant Fund (2301-PWD-CIPS-760020) for the Project, as summarized in Tables 2 below.

CITY OF MENIFEE
SUBJECT: Agreement with the County of Riverside for Slurry Seal Improvements
MEETING DATE: April 2, 2025
TO: Mayor and City Council
PREPARED BY: Carlos Geronimo, Engineering Manager
REVIEWED BY: Nick Fidler, Public Works Director
APPROVED BY: Armando G. Villa, City Manager
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
RECOMMENDED ACTION
1. Approve and authorize the City Manager to execute a Service Agreement with the County of Riverside Transportation Department in an amount of $250,010 to perform slurry seal improvements on behalf of the City along portions of Lindenberger Road, Menifee Road, Scott Road, and Briggs Road.
DISCUSSION
The County of Riverside Transportation Department (“County”) plans for the completion of annual resurfacing projects within its operating jurisdiction. The projects may include improvements of roadways where City and County boundaries meet, or jurisdiction of a roadway is shared. The County has planned slurry seal improvements in Fiscal Year (FY) 2025/2026 along four roadway segments which would include Lindenberger Road at Scott Road to 2154 feet south of Scott Road, Menifee Road at Scott Road to 2611 feet south of Scott Road, Scott Road from Menifee Road to Lindenberger Road, and Briggs Road from Highway 74 to McLaughlin Road.
City staff and the County have coordinated on similar roadway improvement projects in the past.
By allowing the County to complete the improvements, the City is able to take advantage of economies of scale in project mobilization and material pricing while also minimizing traffic impacts that would otherwise occur if separate projects were undertaken. The City and County must enter into a Service Agreement that would authorize the County to proceed with the improvements and memorialize the roles, responsibilities, and reimbursement requirements for each agency.
As outlined in the Service Agreement, the City would be responsible for reimbursing the County a total of $250,010 for the cost of the improvements. Annual resurfacing projects are programmed into the City’s Capital Improvement Program (CIP) as part of the Pavement Management Item Title: 10.11

Program. The City would program the cost to reimburse the County for the slurry seal improvements in its FY 2025/2026 Slurry Seal Program Project. The estimated project costs are summarized in Table 1 below.

Task Cost
Construction (Engineer’s Estimate) $220,010
Ancillary Services (Inspection & Materials Testing) $30,000 Total $250,010*
*Final construction costs will be determined upon the County’s receipt of bids.
The amount of the proposed Agreement exceeds the City Manager’s signing authority. Pursuant to Menifee Municipal Code §3.12.040, any contract amount that exceeds the City Manager’s signing authority shall be approved by the City Council.
STRATEGIC PLAN OBJECTIVE
Connectivity and Mobility
FISCAL IMPACT
The fiscal impact of the proposed Service Agreement is for a total estimated amount of $250,010 which would be programmed in the future CIP budget for the FY 2025/2026 Slurry Seal Project, Project No. PMP 26-01 in the Measure A Fund (2220-PWD-CIPS-658011).
Upon completion of the resurfacing projects by the County, the funds would be requested, and the City would pay from the specified CIP account.

CITY OF MENIFEE
SUBJECT: Agreement with Meritage Homes of California Inc., for Modifications to the Traffic Signal at Menifee Road and McCall Boulevard
MEETING DATE: April 2, 2025
TO: Mayor and City Council
PREPARED BY: Chet Robinson, Principal Engineer
REVIEWED BY: Nick Fidler, Public Works Director
APPROVED BY: Armando G. Villa, City Manager
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
RECOMMENDED ACTION
1. Approve and authorize the City Manager to execute an In Lieu Fee Agreement with Meritage Homes of California, Inc., for developer fee payment in the amount of $15,840 in lieu of constructing modifications to the existing traffic signal located at Menifee Road and McCall Boulevard.
DISCUSSION
Meritage Homes of California, Inc., a California Corporation (Meritage), is the developer of Stone Creek Tract Map 36365; a residential housing tract consisting of 224 lots located at the southeast intersection of Grand Avenue and Leon Road in the County of Riverside. As part of the development’s requirements, Meritage was conditioned to modify an existing traffic signal to add a southbound right-turn overlap at the intersection of Menifee Road and McCall Boulevard within the City of Menifee.
Future modifications are also planned at the traffic signal as conditioned for the McCall Square project (Parcel Map 37624)(“Project”). The McCall Square project work would include a more comprehensive modification to the traffic signal. As such, the City has requested that Meritage pay an in-lieu fee for their conditioned improvement, rather than construct it ahead of the McCall Square project modification. The in-lieu payment amount would then be available to support the required modifications at the time of the McCall Square project traffic signal work.
Meritage has agreed to provide the City with a payment in the amount of $15,840 in lieu of modifying the traffic signal. The proposed In Lieu Fee Agreement (“Agreement”) memorializes the in lieu payment between Meritage and the City. If approved, Meritage would provide immediate payment to the City in the full amount of the in-lieu fee.

CITY OF MENIFEE
SUBJECT: Agreement for the Assignment and Assumption of Cooperative Agreement for the Construction of Flood Control Facilities Associated with Tract Map 31456, The Enclave, by KB Homes Cal Management Services, LLC
MEETING DATE: April 2, 2025
TO: Mayor and City Council
PREPARED BY: Jorge Aguilar, Assistant Engineer
REVIEWED BY: Nick Fidler, Public Works Director

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
RECOMMENDED ACTION
1. Approve and authorize the City Manager to execute an Assignment and Assumption of Cooperative Agreement to guarantee the completion of required flood control facility improvements by KB Homes Cal Management Services, LLC, associated with Tract Map 31456, the Enclave, located west of Valley Boulevard and north of Sun City Boulevard.
DISCUSSION
Tract Map 31456 (TM 31456), also known as The Enclave (“Project”), is a proposed residential development in the City of Menifee located west of Valley Boulevard and north of Sun City Boulevard. The Project is conditioned to construct certain Riverside County Flood Control and Water Conservation District (“District”) flood control facilities including the Menifee Valley – Bella View Way Storm Drain, Stage 1, and the Menifee Valley – Haleys Flight Drive Storm Drain, Stage
1. These facilities would provide flood protection and drainage for the Project and serve as a part of District regional flood control infrastructure. On November 2, 2022, the City Council entered into a four-party Cooperative Agreement (“Agreement”) with the then Project owner RCFC Investments, LLC (RCFC), the District, and the County of Riverside (“County”). The Agreement memorializes the roles and responsibilities of each party in the construction, inspection, ownership, operation and maintenance of the flood control facilities.
The Bella View Way Storm Drain, Stage 1 facility would be comprised of approximately 2395 lineal feet of underground storm drain system and a debris basin with an associated outlet structure, trash rack and wingwall. At its downstream terminus, this storm drain would connect to the onsite basin of TM 31456. Haleys Flight Drive Storm Drain, Stage 1, would be comprised of approximately 655 lineal feet of underground storm drain system. At its downstream terminus, Item Title: 10.13

this storm drain would connect to the Bella View Way Storm Drain, Stage 1 facility. These flood control facilities would be owned and operated by the District as “District Facilities.” The City would be responsible for the maintenance of appurtenances associated with these facilities including catch basins, connector pipes and storm drain lines that are 36 inches or less in diameter (“City Facilities”).
The Project has now changed ownership as KB HOME Cal Management Services, LLC, a California corporation (“Developer”), has acquired the Project from RCFC. This change in ownership requires that the Developer now assume the responsibilities of the Agreement previously assigned to RCFC. Section IV.15 of the Agreement requires that, in the event of a change in Project ownership, an assignment and assumption agreement be executed to transfer all of the former Project owner’s rights, duties, or obligations to the new owner. The attached four- party Assignment and Assumption of Cooperative Agreement (“Assignment Agreement”) serves to memorialize the transfer of all prior RCFC rights and obligations in the Agreement to the Developer. All other terms of the Agreement remain unchanged.
The proposed Assignment Agreement has been reviewed and approved as to form by both the City Attorney and the Riverside County Counsel. If approved by the City Council, the Assignment Agreement would be presented to the Riverside County Board of Supervisors for approval, full execution, and ultimately recordation with the Riverside County Clerk Recorder’s Office.
STRATEGIC PLAN OBJECTIVE
Safe and Vibrant Community
FISCAL IMPACT
All costs incurred in constructing the Project would be borne by the Developer. Upon acceptance of the Project, the District would be responsible for the operation and maintenance of the District Facilities and the City would be responsible for the maintenance of City Facilities. Costs associated with the ongoing maintenance of City Facilities would be supported through special assessments levied through the previously established Community Facilities District 2017-1 (Maintenance Services), Annexation No. 7.

The Cooperative Agreement ("Agreement") sets forth the terms and conditions by which certain flood control facilities required as a condition of approval for Tract Map No. 31456 are to be constructed by Developer and will be inspected , operated , and maintained by the District and City.
The Agreement is necessary to formalize the transfer of necessary rights of way and to provide for District construction inspection and subsequent operation and maintenance of the Menifee Valley - Bella View Way Storm Drain, Stage 1, and Menifee Valley - Haleys Flight Drive Storm Drain, Stage 1 facilities .
Upon completion of construction , the District will assume ownership and responsib ility for the operation and maintenance of the underground storm drain system greater than 36 inches in diameter for Menifee Valley - Bella View Way Storm Drain, Stage 1 and Menifee Valley - Haleys Flight Drive Storm Drain, Stage 1 facilities , stockpile area, the debris removal and debris storage volume for Basin B. The City will assume ownership and responsibility for the operation and maintenance of the project's associated water quality basin, collection basins , catch basins , inlets and connector pipes and laterals that are 36 (thirty-six) inches or less in diameter located within City rights of way.
County Counsel has approved the Agreement as to legal form , and the Developer has executed the Agreement.
Environmental Findings
Pursuant to Section 15096 of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines , the District , in its limited capacity as a responsible agency , considered the Mitigated Negative Declaration (MND) that was prepared by the Lead Agency for the Developer's residential project, reviewed the project, and provided conditions of approval that were subsequently adopted as part of the original approval. All the physical environmental impacts were determined to be mitigated to less than significant through appropriate mitigation measures that were incorporated as binding conditions of approval. No significant adverse impacts will result from execution of the Cooperative Agreement or from the operation and maintenance of the
