Annexation No. 20 would have a maximum annual tax of $1,362 per unit and would be included in CFD No. 2017-1 as “Tax Zone 20.” This tax rate includes a Maximum Special Tax A of $1,211 per unit per year for maintenance services of public facilities and a Maximum Special Tax B (Contingent Tax B) of $151 per unit per year. The maximum annual tax rate is proposed to escalate each year at the greater of Consumer Price Index (CPI) or 2%. The attached CFD Maintenance Site Plan Exhibit illustrates which services would be maintained by the CFD.
The Owner has agreed to initiate and conduct the CFD annexation proceedings pursuant to the Act. To that end, the Owner has submitted a “Consent and Waiver” form on file in the City Clerk’s Office which authorizes the City to (1) hold the election and declare election results (2) shorten election time requirements, (3) waive analysis and arguments, and (4) waive all notice requirements relating to the conduct of the election immediately following the public hearing.
The next step to annex TTM 38525 into CFD No. 2017-1 is to publish a notification of the proposed annexation along with the Resolution of Intention and Boundary Maps of the proposed Annexation area. If approved, a public hearing on the matter would take place on November 4, 2026, and at that time, the Council would formally consider approval of the Annexation No. 20.
STRATEGIC PLAN OBJECTIVE
Safe and Vibrant Community
FISCAL IMPACT
The individual property owners in the CFD would be responsible for annual payments of special taxes. It is estimated, upon full completion of the development, that there would be an annual collection of special tax revenues of approximately $54,495, not including Contingent Tax B, to be used to pay for maintenance costs.
On June 1 of each year, every taxable acre within the boundaries of the CFD would be subject to the special tax for the ensuing Fiscal Year. If the anticipated costs of maintaining the facilities in any given Fiscal Year, prior to buildout of the project, exceeds the special tax revenues available from parcels for which building permits have been issued, the special tax may also be applied to property within recorded final subdivision maps, as well as other undeveloped property within the boundaries of the CFD.
All costs associated with annexation into the CFD have been borne by the Owners. By annexing into the CFD, the costs of maintaining improvements located within the development would be financed through special taxes levied on the parcels within CFD No. 2017-1 and not through the City’s General Fund.

SUBJECT: Resolution of Intention for Annexation No. 43, Denny’s, into Community Facility District No. 2017-1, Maintenance Services MEETING DATE: September 16, 2026
TO: Mayor and City Council
PREPARED BY: Mandy Stephens, Management Analyst
REVIEWED BY: Nick Fidler, Public Works Director
APPROVED BY: Armando G. Villa, City Manager
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
RECOMMENDED ACTION
1. Accept the Petition of Menifee Crossroads, LLC, Plot Plan No. (PLN) 24-0189, located on the northeast corner of Bradley Road and Newport Road, into Community Facilities District (CFD) No. 2017-1, Maintenance Services, as Annexation No. 43; and
2. Adopt a resolution of intention to add Annexation No. 43 into CFD No. 2017-1, to authorize the levy of special tax therein to finance certain maintenance services, and to set a public hearing for November 4, 2026.
DISCUSSION
On December 6, 2017, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 17-658, establishing CFD No. 2017-1 pursuant to the provisions of the Mello-Roos Community Facilities Act of 1982 (Act). CFD No. 2017-1 allows for the levy of special taxes on parcels of taxable property for the purpose of providing certain services which are necessary to meet increased demands placed by development upon the City.
Menifee Crossroads, LLC (Owner) is the Owner of PLN 24-0189, which consists of approximately
1.70 gross acres of a commercial vacant lot. The property is located on the northeast corner of Bradley Road and Newport Road, as shown in the attached Project Location Map. The Owner has requested that the City assist them in annexing PLN 24-0189 into CFD 2017-1 to cover the costs associated with the maintenance of public improvements. The area proposed for annexation would be designated “Annexation No. 43,” and at build-out would include a 4,500 square-foot Denny’s restaurant. Per the Owner’s request, the City would establish a rate and method of apportionment and authorize the levy of special taxes on the taxable property within Annexation No. 43, to pay for those services.
Annexation No. 43 would have a maximum annual tax of $3,226 per acre and would be included in CFD No. 2017-1 as “Tax Zone 43.” This tax rate includes a Maximum Special Tax A of $1,944
City of Menifee Staff Report
CFD No. 2017-1, Annex 43 – Denny’s
September 16, 2026

2 3
per acre per year for maintenance services of public facilities and a Maximum Special Tax B (Contingent Tax B) of $1,282 per acre per year. The maximum annual tax rate is proposed to escalate each year at the greater of Consumer Price Index (CPI) or 2%. The attached CFD Maintenance Site Plan Exhibit illustrates which services would be maintained by the CFD.
The Owner has agreed to initiate and conduct the CFD annexation proceedings pursuant to the Act. To that end, the Owner has submitted a “Consent and Waiver” form on file in the City Clerk’s Office which authorizes the City to (1) hold the election and declare election results, (2) shorten election time requirements, (3) waive analysis and arguments, and (4) waive all notice requirements relating to the conduct of the election immediately following the public hearing.
The next step to annex PLN 24-0189 into CFD No. 2017-1 is to publish a notification of the proposed annexation along with the Resolution of Intention and Boundary Maps of the proposed Annexation area. If approved, a public hearing on the matter would take place on November 4, 2026, and at that time, the Council would formally consider approval of the Annexation No. 43.
STRATEGIC PLAN OBJECTIVE
Safe and Vibrant Community
FISCAL IMPACT
The individual property owners in the CFD would be responsible for annual payments of special taxes. It is estimated, upon full completion of the development, that there would be an annual collection of special tax revenues of approximately $3,305, not including Contingent Tax B, to be used to pay for maintenance costs.
On June 1 of each year, every taxable acre within the boundaries of the CFD, would be subject to the special tax for the ensuing Fiscal Year. If the anticipated costs of maintaining the facilities in any given Fiscal Year, prior to buildout of the project, exceeds the special tax revenues available from parcels for which building permits have been issued, the special tax may also be applied to property within recorded final subdivision maps, as well as other undeveloped property within the boundaries of the CFD.
All costs associated with annexation into the CFD have been borne by the Owners. By annexing into the CFD, the costs of maintaining improvements located within the development would be financed through special taxes levied on the parcels within CFD No. 2017-1 and not through the City’s General Fund.

SUBJECT: Bid Award and Agreement with Universal Wiring Corp for the Installation of Sports Lighting at EL Pete Petersen Park and Hidden Hills Park
MEETING DATE: September 16, 2026
TO: Mayor and City Council
PREPARED BY: Nancy Rodriguez, Management Analyst II
REVIEWED BY: Bryce Howell, Park/Landscape Maintenance Manager APPROVED BY: Armando G. Villa, City Manager
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
RECOMMENDED ACTION
1. Award bid and authorize the City Manager to execute a Contract Services Agreement with Universal Wiring Corp to perform construction services for the Sports Lighting at EL Pete Petersen Park Project, Capital Improvement Program (CIP) Project No. 26-08 and for the Sports Lighting at Hidden Hills Park Project, CIP Project No. 26-09 in a total not-to-exceed amount of $422,500.
DISCUSSION
The City of Menifee places a high priority on providing field access for youth and adult sports organizations, as well as supporting City-operated recreation programs such as the flag football league. Each year, approximately 30 applications are submitted for the use of multi-purpose fields. During the fall and winter seasons, most organizations request lighted fields to accommodate earlier sunsets and evening play. Currently, the City has four lighted multi-purpose fields, which limits staff’s ability to accommodate all requests and reduces available field access for residents. In addition to the demonstrated demand from local organizations, the need for additional lighted fields is identified in the Parks Master Plan. Installing additional field lighting would significantly expand playable hours during the fall and winter months and improve access to recreation opportunities for the community.
CIP Project No. 26-09 Sports Lighting at Hidden Hills and No. 26-08 Sports Lighting at E.L. Pete Petersen were approved by Council to fund the purchase and installation of sports field lighting at the two City maintained parks. At the March 18, 2026 City Council meeting, the City Council approved the purchase of sports field lighting for both parks. This item is for the installation of those lighting fixtures.

As required by the California Public Contract Code (CPCC), staff administered a competitive bid process using PlanetBids on June 17, 2026, for construction services. The bid was advertised for 33 days with a bid opening date of July 20, 2026. The CPCC states that for public projects, the contract shall be awarded to the lowest responsive bidder. A total of 16 bids were received as summarized in Table 1 below.
TABLE 1 – BID RESULT SUMMARY
Firm Name Total Bid Amount
Universal Wiring Corp $422,500
FEC Electric Inc. $442,779
Ensley Electric, Inc. $445,000
New Art Construction $448,800
CO Brothers LLC $456,999
3P Construction, Inc. $465,700
Hands Construction Corporation $489,000
White Horse Pacific Builders $500,000
Electro Construction $515,103
Mel Smith Electric, Inc. $565,000
Ace Electric, Inc. $574,700
YMC $606,000
Steady Solutions, Inc. $640,000
M. Brey, Inc. $693,531
Metrocell Construction, Inc. $730,335
R.I.S. Electrical Contractors, Inc. $1,061,000
After full review of the documents, staff found that the lowest apparent bidder, Universal Wiring Corp, met the requirements for recommendation as the lowest responsive and reasonable bidder.
Universal Wiring is a California-based company that holds an active registration with the Department of Industrial Relations (DIR).
Pursuant to the bid documents, bidders may file a bid protest within five business days from the release of the Notice of Intent. On August 4, 2026, FEC Electric, Inc. submitted a formal protest letter. At issue from the bid protest received was determining whether the lowest apparent bidder, Universal Wiring Corp., failed to meet the “responsive” and/or “responsible requirements”.
Following review and analysis of the protest and consultation with legal counsel, the City determined that the concerns addressed in the protest were either not valid and/or would not result in the disqualification of Universal Wiring Corp as a responsive and responsible bidder for the Project.
The cost of the construction contract is $422,500. Labor compliance, construction management, and material testing services are currently being procured and are expected to increase the project construction costs by $72,177 to an anticipated total construction cost of $494,677.

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. Award bid and authorize the City Manager to execute a Contract Services Agreement with PCI, Inc., for construction services for the Edgeline Striping Improvements Project, Capital Improvement Program (CIP) Project No. 26-03, located at various intersections throughout the City, in total not-to-exceed amount of $109,650; and
2. Adopt two budget amendment resolutions amending the Fiscal Year 2026/2027 Budget appropriating $295,740 of 2023 Highway Safety Improvement Program Cycle 12 grant funding in corresponding revenues within the Grant Fund 2301 and expenditures within the Capital Projects Fund 4320 to the Project account.
DISCUSSION
California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) administers the Highway Safety Improvement Program (HSIP) Grant (Grant), which provides funding to jurisdictions in support of projects that significantly reduce serious injuries and fatalities on public roads. Funding for this competitive grant is derived from various federal and state funds, including the State Highway Account Fund under Senate Bill 137. The Edgeline Striping Improvements Project, CIP No. 26-03 (Project) proposes to install upgraded edgeline striping along Haun Road from Scott Road to Holland Road, Garbani Road from Haun Road to Briggs Road, and Scott Road from Ascot Way to Sunset Avenue. The City utilized crash data from the Transportation Injury Mapping System (TIMS) to determine that implementing edgeline striping upgrades would be an effective way to improve safety by reducing lane departures and increasing the visibility of the edge of the roadway. As a recommended countermeasure within the HSIP to address the growing population, the proposed Project would enhance traffic safety for drivers, pedestrians, and bicyclists alike On November 5, 2025, the City Council accepted $347,220 in Cycle 12 grant funds awarded to the Project through the 2025 HSIP, administered by Caltrans. The grant funding would be allocated by phase as the Project progresses and would support the following phases: Preliminary

TOTAL $347,220 $38,580 $385,800
On July 27, 2026, an electronic bid opening was held following the administration of a formal competitive bid process for the Project’s construction services. The bid opening resulted in the receipt of five bid submissions, as summarized in Table 2 below.
TABLE 2 – BID RESULTS SUMMARY
As part of the bidding process, a hard copy of the bid must be received within 24 hours of the electronic submittal deadline. The firm listed as “Non-Responsive” in Table 2 failed to meet that deadline. Staff reviewed the lowest bidder submission and determined that PCI, Inc. (Contractor) met the requirements for recommendation as the lowest responsive and responsible bidder. The total cost for construction services with the Contractor is $109,650. Construction management and inspection services would be provided by City staff and ancillary services, such as labor compliance and materials testing would be procured separately.
The total estimated construction cost is $135,615.00 which includes construction services, and ancillary services mentioned above, as well as any unforeseen costs that may arise during construction.
If approved by the City Council, the tentative Project schedule would be as follows:
Projected Construction Start: October 2026
Projected Construction End: December 2026
City Council Acceptance: February 2027

SUBJECT: Bird Award and Agreement with Alfaro Communications Construction Inc. for Construction Services for the Menifee Road/Fire Station 76 Entrance Traffic Signal Project
MEETING DATE: September 16, 2026
TO: Mayor and City Council
PREPARED BY: Rex Caballero, Project Manager
REVIEWED BY: Nick Fidler, Public Works Director
APPROVED BY: Armando G. Villa, City Manager
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
RECOMMENDED ACTION
1. Award bid and authorize the City Manager to execute a Contract Services Agreement with Alfaro Communications Construction Inc. for construction services for the Menifee Road/Fire Station No. 76 Entrance Traffic Signal, Capital Improvement Program (CIP) Project No. 23- 09, located at the intersection of Menifee Road and Diamond Road, in total not-to-exceed amount of $498,590.10.
DISCUSSION
The Menifee Road/Fire Station No. 76 (FS 76) Entrance Traffic Signal Project, CIP Project No. 23-09 (Project), is located at the intersection of Menifee Road and Diamond Road and would provide installation of a new traffic signal, upgrade of pedestrian Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) ramps, installation of signage and striping improvements, and asphalt concrete pavement improvements. The existing three-way intersection is currently controlled by a stop sign on Diamond Road where the Fire Apparatus enters onto Menifee Road that delays response time for the Fire Department. The Project would also provide signal pre-emption for FS 76 minimizing delays for the Fire Department when exiting FS 76 in response to emergency calls.
The City administered a formal competitive bid process for the advance purchase and delivery of traffic signal equipment required for the Project. The bid process resulted in a purchase order being issued in the amount of $127,874 for the procurement of the traffic signal and lighting poles, dual meter service cabinet, traffic controllers, and all necessary traffic signal accessories. Any remaining traffic signal accessory items are to be provided by the construction contractor.
On August 3, 2026, an electronic bid opening was held following the administration of a formal competitive bid process for Project construction services. A total of 16 bids were received as summarized in Table 1 on the following page. As part of the bidding process, a hard copy of the
