AGENDA REPORT
DATE: SEPTEMBER 19, 2022
SECTION: CONSENT - AGREEMENTS
ITEM NO.: 7
FILE I.D.: CAT025
DEPT.: CITY MGR.
PREPARER: E. STARR
SUBJECT: CONSIDER APPROVAL OF AGREEMENT NO. 22–97, AMENDMENT NO. 3 TO AGREEMENT NO. 95–73, AS AMENDED, WITH DIANE E. ROBBINS OF ROBBINS &
HOLDAWAY, A PROFESSIONAL CORPORATION, TO CONTINUE PROVIDING LEGAL
SERVICES TO THE CITY OF MONTCLAIR, MONTCLAIR SUCCESSOR REDEVELOPMENT
AGENCY, MONTCLAIR HOUSING CORPORATION, MONTCLAIR HOUSING AUTHORITY AND OTHER CITY–RELATED LEGAL ENTITIES
REASON FOR CONSIDERATION: The Montclair City Council, City Council acting as Successor to the Montclair Redevelopment Agency Board of Directors, Montclair Housing Corporation Board of Directors, Montclair Housing Authority Commissioners and other City–related legal entities (hereafter collectively the “Agency”) are requested to consider approval of Agreement No. 22–97 (Amendment No. 3 to Agreement No. 95–73) with Diane E. Robbins of the law firm Robbins & Holdaway, a Professional Corporation (hereafter the “Attorney”), to continue to provide professional services to the Agency.
BACKGROUND: Diane E. Robbins has provided City Attorney legal services to the Agency since December 1995. Those services are covered by Agreement No. 95–73, as amended by Agreement No. 03–19 (Amendment No. 1) and Agreement No. 17–13 (Amendment No. 2).
Proposed Agreement No. 22–97 provides for the following revisions:
1. Change to Retainer Fee. An increase in the current retainer fee from $6,400 per month to $8,000 per month. The retainer fee is PERSable—reportable as pay to the California Public Employee Retirement System (CalPERS) for calculation into pension benefits.
2. Change to hourly rate for hours billable to the Retainer Fee. Retention of forty (40) hours of professional legal services, billable under the $8,000 per month retainer fee, at a rate of $200 per hour—representing an increase from the current hourly rate of $160.
3. Change to hourly rate for hours billable above the retainer fee. Professional services above the forty (40) hours included under the monthly retainer fee would be billed at a rate of $250 per hour—an increase from the current hourly rate of $210. Payments for professional services above the $8,000 per month retainer fee are not PERSable.
4. Change to hourly rate for Special Counsel services. Special counsel services, currently billed at $260 per hour, would be billed at a rate of $300 per hour.
Special Counsel services are not PERSable.
5. Other terms and conditions. All other terms and conditions remain unchanged.
MONTCLAIR CITY COUNCIL MEETING – 09/19/2022 Page 127 of 179 FISCAL IMPACT: Provisions of Agreement No. 22–97 would be effective October 1, 2022, and would result in the following fiscal impacts:
1. Annual retainer fee. The annual retainer fee would increase from $76,800 to $96,000. The $96,000 is PERSable.
2. Hourly rate above the retainer fee. Based on an average of 67 billable hours monthly, or 804 billable hours annually, the 324 annual billable hours above the 480 annual retainer hours, billed at a rate of $250 per hour, would be $81,000 annually; versus $68,040 annually under the current, billable hourly rate of $210 per hour.
3. Special Counsel hourly rate. Special counsel services, currently billed at $260 per hour, would be billed at a rate of $300 per hour. Annual costs for Special Counsel are indeterminate, and are based on agency needs in relation to services requiring special counsel services related to the incumbent’s specialty in areas that include redevelopment, affordable housing, and economic development.
For purposes of comparison, the hourly rate for several law firms representing the City in areas of specialize needs are as follows (these comparisons may vary based on the associate/partnership status of an attorney within each of the subject firms):
Atkinson, Andelson, Loya, Ruud & Romo – $325 per hour Bordin Semmer – $235 per hour
Colantuono, Highsmith & Whatley – $395 per hour
Richards, Watson & Gershon – $395 per hour
Zappia Law Firm – $275 per hour
The City Manager incorporated into the Fiscal Year 2022–23 General Fund Budget anticipated increases in the City Attorney’s retainer fee and hourly billable rate.
RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends the City Council approve Agreement No. 22– 97, Amendment No. 3 to Agreement No. 95–73, as amended, with Diane E. Robbins of Robbins & Holdaway, a Professional Corporation, to continue providing legal services to City of Montclair, Montclair Successor Redevelopment Agency, Montclair Housing Corporation, Montclair Housing Authority and other City–related legal entities.

PREPARER: B. KUMANSKI
SUBJECT: CONSIDER APPROVAL OF AGREEMENT NO. 22–100 WITH THE SAN BERNARDINO COUNTY DISTRICT ATTORNEY’S OFFICE TO STATION A VICTIM’S ADVOCATE AT THE
POLICE DEPARTMENT, SUBJECT TO ANY REVISIONS DEEMED NECESSARY BY THE
CITY ATTORNEY
REASON FOR CONSIDERATION: To improve the health, welfare, and quality of life of victims of crime, including children, the San Bernardino County District Attorney’s Office has Victim Advocates stationed throughout the County at various allied agencies. Having a Victim Advocate on site is advantageous to the Police Department and would allow for victim services to be readily accessible to the City’s residents more conveniently. City Council is requested to consider approval of Agreement No. 22–100 with San Bernardino County, District Attorney’s Office to provide a Victim Advocate to be stationed at the Police Department.
A copy of proposed Agreement No. 22–100 is attached for the City Council’s review and consideration.
BACKGROUND: The State of California, by and through Assembly Bill 109 establishing the California Public Safety Realignment Act of 2011, permits a San Bernardino County Victim Advocate (Advocate) to be stationed in a non–County agency or organization in order to provide Victim Advocacy Services to improve the health, welfare, and quality of life of victims of crime, including children. The San Bernardino County District Attorney’s Office would like to assign a Victim Advocate at the Montclair Police Department to better reach crime victims within the City. Victim Advocates provide needed resources to crime victims including access to counseling, legal services, restitution, and information to help navigate the legal system.
The proposed agreement would allow for a Victim Advocate to be stationed at the Police Department and readily available to provide services to victims within the community.
Being attached to the Department, they would have immediate access to victims and receive notifications in a more timely fashion. This program is funded by the County, and there are no financial requirements by the City. The term requested by the County is through the end of the current fiscal year, and will renew each fiscal year if funding is available. Any facility requirements for the agreement are already in place at the Police Department, and there would be no maintenance except for the initial workspace set– up.
FISCAL IMPACT: If authorized by the City Council, there is no funding requirement for Agreement No. 22–100.
RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends the City Council approve Agreement No. 22– 100 with the San Bernardino County District Attorney’s Office to station a Victim Advocate at the Police Department.

AGENDA REPORT
DATE: SEPTEMBER 19, 2022
SECTION: CONSENT - AGREEMENTS
ITEM NO.: 9
FILE I.D.: PTD175
DEPT.: POLICE
PREPARER: B. KUMANSKI
SUBJECT: CONSIDER APPROVAL OF AGREEMENT NO. 22–103, AMENDING AGREEMENT NO. 19–103 WITH THE CITY OF WEST COVINA AND MARK 43 FOR CAD/RMS UPDATES
AND SERVICES, SUBJECT TO ANY REVISIONS DEEMED NECESSARY BY THE CITY
ATTORNEY
CONSIDER AUTHORIZING A $10,000 EXPENDITURE FROM THE SB 509 PUBLIC SAFETY FUND FOR COSTS ASSOCIATED WITH AGREEMENT NO. 22–103 REASON FOR CONSIDERATION: In 2019, the Department updated its Computer Aided Dispatch (CAD) and Records Management System (RMS) when the existing system provided by the City of West Covina/West Covina Service Group (WCSG) deemed the prior system end–of–life and transitioned to a partnership with Mark 43 to modernize the systems. With this transition, the Department acquired the ability to enhance the capability of the system with integration to other systems already is use. Additionally, Mark 43 is capable of providing data for other services, including an upcoming agreement with San Bernardino County. City Council is requested to consider approval of Agreement No. 22–103, amending Agreement No. 19–103 with The City of West Covina and Mark 43 for these CAD/RMS updates and services.
A copy of proposed Agreement No. 22–103, amending Agreement No. 19–103, is attached for the City Council’s review and consideration.
BACKGROUND: In 2019, the Department entered into an agreement with the WCSG and Mark 43 (Agreement 19–103) for CAD/RMS services. The system was modern and capable of integrating with other services not yet acquired by the Department, but which were actively being researched for implementation. These capabilities included integration with other software being sought, such as specialized collision reporting software and online reporting. The COVID–19 pandemic brought the need for online reporting to the forefront and a solution with LexisNexis, Desk Officer Reporting System (DORS) was implemented in 2020. Due to the urgency of the pandemic and Mark 43 not being ready for use yet, a phased implementation was conducted to get DORS available as quickly as possible, with the integration component being held off until Mark 43 was ready. A change–order for this service was completed with Mark 43 at the time, and no additional fees were proposed.
Additionally, the Department recently acquired Crossroads collision reporting software.
This software is also able to be integrated with Mark 43, and the WCSG will facilitate this integration, also at no additional cost to the City.
Additionally, the Department will need data replication for third–party uses. Currently, the Department is in an agreement with the San Bernardino County Sheriff’s Department for data sharing services, utilized under the program Coplink. This program has been the standard for all San Bernardino County law enforcement, as well as throughout the Southern California region for over a decade. This service is provided by the County at MONTCLAIR CITY COUNCIL MEETING – 09/19/2022 Page 146 of 179 no recurring cost to the City though various law enforcement grant funding sources.
Recently, an analysis was conducted by the Sheriff’s Department and the decision was made to transition the entire County from Coplink to another system. While the Sheriff’s Department will continue to fund this program, the participating agencies will need to provide access to their CAD/RMS data, though a specific method called Datalake. This method replicates the data and allows for it to be used for many other systems, safe from being directly connected to our core systems. This process is needed for other systems such as various crime analysis software the Department plans to utilize for a future Crime Analyst position. The program with the Sheriff’s Department is expected to begin this fiscal year. WCSG quoted the cost for the Datalake service, $10,000 per year. This cost was requested and approved in the current fiscal year, Administration (Program 4421, Special Contract Services. The proposed agreement formally amends the original agreement to add the above mentioned integrations and service additions.
FISCAL IMPACT: If authorized by the City Council, Agreement No. 22–103, amending Agreement No. 19–103, would result in a $10,000 expediture from the SB 509 Public Safety Fund (1143).
RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends the City Council take the following actions:
1. Approve Agreement No. 22–103 with City of West Covina and Mark 43 for CAD/RMS updates and services, subject to any revisions deemed necessary by the City Attorney.
2. Authorize a $10,000 expenditure from the SB 509 Public Safety Fund for costs associated with Agreement 22–103.

SUBJECT: CONSIDER AMENDING THE 2019–2024 CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM TO ADD
THE CDBG TARGET AREA ALLEY IMPROVEMENTS PROJECT
CONSIDER AUTHORIZING AN $849,440 APPROPRIATION FROM COMMUNITY
DEVELOPMENT BLOCK GRANT (CDBG) FUNDS FOR COSTS RELATED TO THE CDBG

CONSIDER AUTHORIZATION TO ADVERTISE FOR BID PROPOSALS FOR THE CDBG
TARGET AREA ALLEY IMPROVEMENTS PROJECT
CONSIDER AUTHORIZING THE CITY MANAGER TO AWARD AGREEMENT NO. 22–104
FOR CONSTRUCTION OF THE CDBG TARGET AREA ALLEY IMPROVEMENTS PROJECT REASON FOR CONSIDERATION: The City Council is requested to consider amending the 2019–2024 Capital Improvement Program (CIP) to add the CDBG Target Area Alley Improvements Project. Amendments to the CIP, non–budgeted appropriations, and authorization to advertise for bid proposals are subject to City Council approval.
With time restraints of fulfilling the February 24, 2023 expenditure deadline of the CDBG funds, staff is requesting that the City Council authorize the City Manager to award the project to the lowest, most responsive, and responsible bidder following the bid opening, the contract for which has been assigned Agreement No. 22–104.
BACKGROUND: The City currently has $849,440 of unspent Community Development Block Grant funds. The funds continue to be used towards graffiti abatement, code enforcement, senior transportation services, and Reeder Ranch improvements. With a February 24, 2023 deadline for funding expenditures, staff has opted to transfer the remaining funds towards alley improvement projects. Funding can only be used towards alleyways located within the CDBG target areas. The City currently has 16 alleyways located within the target areas. In previous years, the City has used CDBG funding for the rehabilitation of five (5) alleyways.
The CDBG Target Area Alley Improvements Project is intended to improve pavement conditions in five separate alleyways. The five locations are:
1. 9600 Monte Vista Avenue, located west of Monte Vista Avenue, between Monte Vista Avenue and Harvard Street.
2. 4700 San Bernardino Street, located south of San Bernardino Street, between Helena Avenue and Monte Vista Avenue.
3. 5300 San Bernardino Alley, located south of San Bernardino Street, between Rose Avenue and Vernon Avenue.
4. 4800 Orchard Street, located south of Orchard Street, between Tudor Avenue and Monte Vista Avenue.
5. 10300 Amherst Avenue, located west of Amherst Avenue between Kingsley MONTCLAIR CITY COUNCIL MEETING – 09/19/2022 Page 152 of 179 Street and Holt Boulevard.
A map identifying the locations of the above alleys is attached to this report as an exhibit.
Improvements to be completed include the full removal and replacement of existing concrete asphalt, construction of a new longitudinal concrete drainage gutter, replacement of non–compliant Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) pedestrian ramps, and new traffic legends as needed. The project will be advertised as a design/build contract with the selected contractor responsible for providing a design acceptable to the City.
FISCAL IMPACT: The total project cost is estimated to be $850,000. The project will be funded with Community Development Block Grant funds and 2021 Lease Revenue Bond Funds in the event the bid proposals exceed the estimated amount. The cost of advertising this project should not exceed $3,500.
RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends that the City Council take the following actions in relation to the CDBG Target Area Alley Improvements Project:
1. Amend the 2019–2024 Capital Improvement Program to add the Project.
2. Authorize an $849,440 appropriation from Community Development Block Grant funds for costs related to the Project.
3. Authorize staff to advertise for bid proposals for the CDBG Target Area Alley Improvements Project.
4. Authorize the City Manager the authority to award Agreement No. 22–104 for construction of the Project.

CITY COUNCIL
AGENDA REPORT
DATE: SEPTEMBER 19, 2022
SECTION: CONSENT - RESOLUTIONS
ITEM NO.: 1
FILE I.D.: COV100/CYC125
DEPT.: CITY MGR.
PREPARER: A. MYRICK
SUBJECT: CONSIDER ADOPTION OF RESOLUTION NO. 22–3377 MAKING FACTUAL FINDINGS IN COMPLIANCE WITH AB 361 FOR THE CONTINUATION OF PUBLIC MEETING
TELECONFERENCING DURING PUBLIC HEALTH EMERGENCIES FOR THE PERIOD OF SEPTEMBER 19, 2022, THROUGH OCTOBER 19, 2022
REASON FOR CONSIDERATION: The City Council’s adoption of Resolution No. 22–3377 would extend the City’s remote public meeting procedures under AB 361 for an additional 30 days, expiring October 19, 2022.
BACKGROUND: Governor Newsom’s Executive Order N–29–20, which suspended and modified the Brown Act’s teleconferencing requirements during the COVID–19 pandemic, expired on September 30, 2021. On September 16, 2021, Governor Newsom signed AB 361 into law as an urgency bill and, four days later, executed an order delaying the application of AB 361 until October 2, 2021.
AB 361 permits legislative bodies of state and local entities to continue to meet virtually and remotely through telephonic and internet means (i.e., via teleconference) during a proclaimed state of emergency without having to meet the quorum, posting, physical location access, and other requirements of traditional teleconference meetings under the Brown Act. Under AB 361, a legislative body may hold entirely virtual meetings (or partially virtual meetings) until the end of the current state of emergency and during any future emergency declarations through January 1, 2024. However, to do so, the legislative body must make factual findings to continue teleconferencing every 30 days.
FISCAL IMPACT: There is no direct fiscal impact on the General Fund related to the City Council’s adoption of Resolution No. 22–3377.
RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends the City Council adopt Resolution No. 22–3377 making factual findings in compliance with AB 361 for the continuation of teleconferencing during public health emergencies for the period of September 19, 2022, through October 19, 2022.

RESOLUTION NO. 22–3377
A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF MONTCLAIR STATING COMPLIANCE WITH THE PROVISIONS OF ASSEMBLY BILL 361
INCLUDING COMPLIANCE WITH ABBREVIATED TELECONFERENCE
REQUIRMENTS FOR OPEN MEETINGS, AND MAKING FACTUAL FINDINGS REGARDING THE COVID–19 PUBLIC HEALTH EMERGENCY FOR THE
PERIOD OF SEPTEMBER 19, 2022, THROUGH OCTOBER 19, 2022
WHEREAS, recognizing the continuing public health threat posed by the novel coronavirus, California Governor Gavin Newsom on September 16, 2021 signed Assembly Bill 361 (AB 361), an urgency law establishing procedures for the continuation of teleconferencing during public health emergencies, including the COVID–19 public health emergency; and
WHEREAS, the Montclair City Council, its standing committees, and the Montclair Planning and Community Activities Commissions may continue to meet virtually and remotely through telephonic and internet means (i.e., via teleconference) during a proclaimed state of emergency without having to meet the quorum, posting, physical location access and other requirements of traditional teleconference meetings under the Ralph M. Brown Act—Government Code (GC) sections (§§)54950–54963 (the "Brown Act") open meeting laws until the end of the current state of emergency and during any future state of emergency, up until January 1, 2024; and WHEREAS, to continue meeting virtually, the Montclair City Council is required to make factual findings.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the City Council of the City of Montclair hereby elects to use AB 361’s abbreviated teleconferencing procedures where a state of emergency has been formally proclaimed, but only if at least one of the following three conditions apply, and this election shall hereby include its standing committees and the Montclair Planning and Community Activities Commissions:
1. State or local officials have imposed or recommended measures to promote social distancing at the time the legislative body holds the meeting to adopt AB 361 [GC §54953(e)(1)(A)]; or
2. The legislative body holds a meeting for the first time for the purpose of determining by majority vote whether, as a result of proclaimed state of emergency, meeting in person would present imminent risks to the health and safety of attendees [GC §54953(e)(1)(B)], or
3. The legislative body has determined (per the previous bullet) that, as a result of the proclaimed state of emergency, meeting in person would continue to present imminent risks to the health or safety of attendees [GC §54953(e)(1)(C)].
As to condition No. 1, immediately above:
On March 16, 2020, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 20–3263 declaring that a local public health emergency exists in the City of Montclair.

On September 21, 2020, the City Manager introduced, and the City Council adopted, the City Facilities Public Reopening, Health and Safety Plan. The Plan introduced a strong, clear and detailed guidance to ensure public health and safety in City facilities. Protocols in the Plan are based on a variety of sources including, but not limited to, the federal government’s Opening America plan, CDC Guidelines, State of California Guidance, EEOC Guidance for the workplace, and the Aspen Institute Return to Play COVID–19 Risk Assessment Tool. A copy of the Plan had been provided to each member of the City Council.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that pursuant to AB 361, local legislative bodies electing to use the urgency bill’s abbreviated teleconferencing procedures must make the following factual findings within 30 days after teleconferencing for the first time after the expiration of Executive Order No. N–29–20 on September 30, 2021, and every 30 days thereafter until January 1, 2024, or when Montclair City Council Resolution No. 20–3263 declaring a public health emergency is rescinded, whichever comes first:
MONTCLAIR CITY COUNCIL MEETING – 09/19/2022 Page 157 of 179 Resolution No. 22–3377 Page 2 of 3

2. Either of the following circumstances exist:
The state of emergency continues to directly impact the ability of the members to meet safely in person.

As to condition No. 1, immediately above, this Resolution makes factual findings as follows:
The City Council of the City of Montclair, in reconsideration of the circumstances of the public health emergency related to COVID–19, as expressed in Montclair City Council Resolution No. 20–3263, adopted March 16, 2020, declaring that a local public health emergency exists in the City of Montclair, remains in effect.
As to condition No. 2, immediately above, this Resolution makes factual findings as to the following:
On September 21, 2020, the City Council adopted the City Facilities Public Reopening, Health and Safety Plan, introducing a strong, clear and detailed guidance to ensure public health and safety in City facilities. Protocols in the Plan are based on a variety of sources including, but not limited to, the federal governments Opening America plan, CDC Guidelines, State of California Guidance, EEOC Guidance for the workplace, and the Aspen Institute Return to Play COVID–19 Risk Assessment Tool. Adoption of the Plan also incorporated guidance from the California Department of Public Health (CDPH) and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), including public health guidelines that promote personal responsibility for social distancing and compliance with face covering mandates, education on the need to avoid large gatherings, and promotion of protocols related to personal hygiene.
By adoption of this Resolution, the City Council of the City of Montclair reaffirms that it continues to impose measures in City facilities and at City– sponsored events to promote social distancing in compliance with the City Facilities Public Reopening, Health and Safety Plan.

Further, (1) the agenda is not required to be posted at all teleconferencing locations, (2) public access does not need to be assured at all teleconference locations, (3) the notices and agenda do not need to list the teleconferencing locations of the members of the City Council, and (4) a quorum of the members of the City Council do not need to participate within physical boundaries of the City of Montclair.
2. Public comment rules: AB 361 instituted new rules for public comments for timed and untimed public comment periods during legislative body meetings.

CITY COUNCIL
AGENDA REPORT
DATE: SEPTEMBER 19, 2022
SECTION: CONSENT - RESOLUTIONS
ITEM NO.: 2
FILE I.D.: TRN510
DEPT.: PUBLIC WORKS
PREPARER: M. HEREDIA
SUBJECT: CONSIDER ADOPTION OF RESOLUTION NO. 22–3379 APPROVING A FIVE–YEAR CAPITAL PROJECT NEEDS ANALYSIS FOR FISCAL YEARS 2023–24 THROUGH 2027– 28 REASON FOR CONSIDERATION: The San Bernardino County Transportation Authority (SBCTA) requires each local jurisdiction to annually update its Five–Year Capital Project Needs Analysis (CPNA). The City Council is requested to consider adopting Resolution No. 22–3379 pursuant to SBCTA requirements. A copy of proposed Resolution No. 22– 3379 is attached for the City Council’s review and consideration.
BACKGROUND: Measure I, the 2010–2040 countywide transportation sales tax program, requires that each local jurisdiction applying for funds from the Valley Major Street and Valley Freeway Interchange Program annually adopt and update Five–Year CPNAs. Projects in the CPNA typically include freeway interchange projects, arterial widening projects, and grade separation projects. Project funding also includes contributions from developers through the regional Development Impact Fee Program.
The CPNA projects in the City of Montclair that make use of the Valley Major Street and Freeway Interchange Program funds include the reconstruction of the Monte Vista Avenue/I–10 Freeway Interchange Project and the Monte Vista/Union Pacific Grade Separation Project. The CIP list identifies the projects which will be funded by the local pass–through program.
FISCAL IMPACT: There is no immediate fiscal impact to the City with the adoption of Resolution No. 22–3379. The CPNA, as its name implies, is a needs analysis allowing SBCTA to prioritize transportation improvement needs throughout the County. Having projects listed in the CPNA is not a guarantee that funds would be made available when needed, but failure to have a project listed would further delay funding until the project is listed. The City has been successful expediting construction of major infrastructure and utilized the available loan program from SBCTA to accelerate construction of improvements needed along Monte Vista Avenue. Future revenues from the SBCTA program will be used to pay the loan.
RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends that the City Council adopt Resolution No. 22– 3379 approving a Five–Year CPNA for Fiscal Years 2023–24 through 2027–28.

WHEREAS, the Strategic Plan requires each local jurisdiction applying for revenue from certain Measure I Programs to annually adopt and update a Five–Year Capital Project Needs Analysis; and

Safe Routes to School (SRTS) Program — Vernon Middle School Director of Public Works/City Engineer Heredia stated that staff installed “No U–turn” signs along the small medians on San Bernardino Street and Vernon Avenue, as requested by Vernon Middle School. Public Works staff also installed red tape on the stop sign poles for better visibility. The remainder of the signs for the SRTS Program for Vernon Middle School would be installed in the following months.

VI. POLICE DEPARTMENT UPDATE/ITEMS
Executive Director of Public Safety/Police Chief Avels expressed appreciaton towards Director of Public Works/City Engineer Heredia and her staff for installing “No Parking” signs on Brooks Street regarding the commercial parking. It has been an issue Safety staff have been trying to address and ensuring that there is clear direction for those parking in the area is paramount. He advised that Safety staff is aware of the illegal commercial parking throughout the City, noting a few problematic locations are the 5500 block of Olive Street, Moreno Street, Arrow Highway, Fremont Street near Olive Street, and Mills Avenue north of Holt Boulevard.
Executive Director of Public Safety/Police Chief Avels stated in the month of May, the watch commander noted 18 illegally parked commercial vehicles were cited in one shift.

B. REGIONAL PROJECTS
1. I–10 Corridor Project
Public Works Director/City Engineer Heredia reported California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) continues working on the I–10 Corridor project on Monte Vista Avenue with their daytime and nighttime activities such as utility relocation and drainage improvements. Monte Vista Avenue is currently reduced to one lane in each direction during the daytime hours and is closed nightly from 7:00 p.m. to 5:00 a.m., Monday through Saturday.
Public Works Director/City Engineer Heredia informed the Committee that the contractor will start shoring the wing walls on Central Avenue undercrossing and activity will begin at Benson Avenue’s undercrossing in the next few weeks.
Public Works Director/City Engineer Heredia also advised there would be a 55–hour I–10 freeway closure from Vineyard Avenue to Fourth Street during the last two weeks of May.
2. Central Avenue Bridge Project
Director of Public Works/City Engineer Heredia stated that staff and the City’s bridge consultant are coordinating with Union Pacific Railroad (UPRR) Yard Expansion Project. Staff is currently reviewing the Water Quality Management Plan (WQMP).
In regards to the bridge, the City has submitted a request to Caltrans for a revised project end date to obtain the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) clearance required for this project. Staff anticipated the report would be completed in July, but it is taking longer.
The design is projected to be completed in Spring of 2024. The City should be able to advertise the project in 2025 assuming the City receives the shortfall funding for construction.
BCA, the City’s consultant, submitted a request to Caltrans headquarters to approve a scope of work change to replace and widen the bridge. However, BCA was informed last month that the project has been flagged as a high– priority project to be reviewed, despite City staff not receiving any correspondence from Caltrans.
Director of Public Works/City Engineer Heredia continued that BCA also submitted a bridge plan submittal to UPRR. Staff is also waiting on Caltrans to respond to the Air Quality Conformity Analysis, along with a few other items to close out the environmental process by this July.

3. Foothill Gold Line Extension Project
City Manager Starr reported the project is nearing its 50 percent completion point. The Metro Gold Line Foothill Extension Construction Authority will be scheduling an event somewhere between Glendora to Pomona to recognize that the project is 50 percent complete. If progress continues at this rate, that section should open up in 2025. As far as the Pomona to Montclair segment, Governor Newsom submitted his May budget revise including $34 billion for transportation–related projects, which leaves the battle up to the State legislature to promote the funding the $748 million needed to complete the segment. While this project would use a significant portion of that budget, this project is important to the region.
Governor Newsom has heard the appeals of Montclair, which he did not oppose, but ultimately the legislature will finalize how the $34 billion will be spent on transit and transportation-related projects. City Manager Starr expressed optimism due to the wide level of support in the legislature to bring this project to fruition.
Director of Public Works/City Engineer Heredia added that she and Denis Cournoyer, Director of Engineering from Foothill Gold Line, had a discussion regarding the access to the Metrolink station from the Village Partners Development. Mr. Cournoyer asked for more information and was provided with the plans.

Mr. Bruce Culp, resident, expressed his support for users of the PE Trail who need access to public restrooms. He stated the trail is actively used, which deters criminal activity. He also stated his disdain for the vilification of homeless people.
F. Mr. Michael Keenan, Claremont resident, stated he utilizes the PE Trail and thinks there only needs to be a sign for trail users pointing to the public restrooms that are located about 500 feet away from the trail.
VII. PUBLIC HEARINGS
A. Consider Adoption of Resolution No. 22–3366 Making Findings Pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act and Approving Tentative Parcel Map No. 20474 and a Precise Plan of Design for a Proposed 302–Unit Residential Apartment
Development Within the North Montclair Downtown Specific Plan on 9.96 Acres Located Approximately 200 Feet West of the Intersection of Monte Vista Avenue and Richton Street, West of the San Antonio Creek Channel at 4700 Huntington Drive
Mr. Reese Peterson, Trammel Crow Residential (TCR), provided an overview of the project aided by PowerPoint visuals. He also advised the City Council that TCR has proposed the following revisions to the Conditions of Approval (Exhibit A to Resolution No. 22–3366):
Revision: CONDITIONS PRIOR TO THE SUBMITTAL OR APPROVAL OF A FINAL MAP (Condition Nos. 15–20) Planning/Administration Add subsection (f) to Condition No. 15:
f. The Director of Community Development, or his/her
designee, shall have the authority to modify Conditions Nos. 15(a)–(e) (e.g., in the event that approval from third-party agencies delays project construction despite the Applicant’s best efforts).
Revise hours in Condition No. 58: Construction activity shall only be permitted from the hours of 7:00 a.m. to 5 6:00 p.m. daily.
Mayor Dutrey declared it the time and place set for public hearing to consider Resolution No. 22–3366 and invited comments from the public.
Ms. Lydia Henry, a resident of the Claremont Arbol Verde community for over 30 years, stated her concerns related to transforming Huntington Drive into a thoroughfare for drivers wanting a faster connection to the mall, freeway, or transit center.
She stated Huntington Drive is currently a residential street and could not accommodate increased traffic levels, which would also create more safety issues. She stated any public restrooms should be added in the park at the trailhead of the PE Trail.
Mr. Keenan stated he had trouble finding the documents on the City’s website related to this item. He stated concerns of eminent domain being used for the addition of more homes around the development. He also asked if the community would have a gate for access to the PE Trail like other communities that abut the trail.
Mr. Villanueva stated he supports the project, which will support the affordable housing shortage. He stated his opinion that Trammel Crow’s other developments in the area have not
generated an increase in crime or gang activity.
Mrs. Raft stated she is happy to see this project and has wanted to see development of the site for a long time.
Mr. Culp stated he is generally supportive of projects like this; however, there are many factors preventing him from giving his full support. First, he is unclear about how the bridge will be built since there is currently no plan or agreement with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. He added he also objects to the $700,000 fee from MONTCLAIR CITY COUNCIL MEETING – 09/19/2022 Page 170 of 179

He stated he feels that money should go to sewer connections for residents in the area who have been waiting to connect to the City’s sewer line, and the developer should be required to make the housing they are building affordable. He added the north end of the city should provide affordable housing options and not be reserved for the wealthy.
Mr. Amin Nash stated he lives on Huntington Drive right next to the project site and believes the road is too narrow to support the traffic that will be generated by the high number of units being built, noting he feels it would become difficult to back out of his driveway.
He added while he appreciates the opportunity for public input, he would prefer the project not move forward at this time until considering other road configurations and traffic calming measures such as a roundabout.
There being no one else in the audience wishing to speak, Mayor Dutrey closed the public hearing and returned the matter to the City Council for its consideration.
Council Member Johnson asked if traffic calming measures could be implemented on Huntington Drive to address the road safety concerns.
Mr. Peterson stated TCR would be happy to work with staff to develop traffic calming measures.
Council Member Johnson asked for the width and speed limit of Huntington Drive.
Director of Public Works/City Engineer Heredia advised the road is 40 feet wide. She noted it is two one–way lanes of traffic and the speed limit is 25 miles per hour. She added no changes are contemplated for width or speed limit, as it is already consistent with residential streets in the city.
The City Council received clarification on the following Conditions of Approval:
Condition No. 20: TCR is working with staff and Arbol Verde neighborhood residents to implement culturally significant landmarks, artwork, and other features that pay homage to the area’s history into the development and public park.
Condition No. 128: The referenced street study is being conducted by Moule and Polyzoides to develop the North
Montclair Streetscape Master Plan, including Huntington Drive. Condition No. 129: The fair share of improvements to be contributed will be based on a formula agreed upon by the City and the developer.
Council Member Lopez stated the area is very culturally significant and he does not feel that adding a plaque to placate the Arbol Verde residents is acceptable. He also stated he believes Upland’s and Claremont’s concerns regarding traffic are valid and asked if a cul– de–sac configuration was considered.
Mr. Peterson emphasized TCR’s dedication to ensuring residents are part of the process of determining how to represent the culture and history of the area. As to the road issue, he stated that the extension of Huntington Drive is not part of the project, and the developer created this plan to conform to the approved specific plan.
Director of Community Development Diaz clarified no right–of–way changes nor eminent domain are currently being contemplated by staff. He advised the street study is being performed to determine how to address issues with Huntington Drive. He added 50 days have elapsed since Planning Commission approved the project, and in that time, staff has reached out to the Community Development Directors of both Upland and Claremont; however, the correspondence from both cities provided to the City Council just prior to the MONTCLAIR CITY COUNCIL MEETING – 09/19/2022 Page 171 of 179

Joint City Council/Successor Agency Board/Montclair Housing Corporation Board/Montclair Housing Authority Commission/ Montclair Community Foundation Board Meeting Minutes – August 15, 2022 Page 4 of 11 meeting was just received today, August 15, 2022, via email. He noted staff is certainly willing to meet with both cities to resolve any concerns, which will also be addressed by the study being conducted.
Mayor Pro Tem Ruh raised concerns about street parking and traffic hazards with deliveries being made on a narrow road like Huntington Drive. He stated he feels speed bumps may cause more issues and traffic hazards. He concurred that the property holds cultural significance for many area residents and agreed with preserving that heritage. He added that, while he supports efforts to build new housing to address the shortage throughout the state, he believes it needs to be affordable and he does not agree with separating and grouping all affordable housing together.
Council Member Martinez emphasized her appreciation for residents for bringing forward their concerns and writing letters in relation to this project, especially issues such as gentrification and cultural representation. She also commended TCR’s efforts to work with the residents to address their concerns.
Mayor Dutrey asked if the streetscape plan would be presented to the City Council for approval when completed.
City Manager Starr advised it would, adding TCR is only building a segment of Huntington Drive from Monte Vista Avenue to the west end of the property, but it would not connect to Huntington Drive; that connection is a decision to be made by the City Council at a future date, separate from this project, and should not be a part of this project’s consideration. He pointed out City of Claremont staff had originally proposed the extension of Huntington Drive to Monte Vista Avenue to Montclair staff approximately twenty years ago.
Mayor Dutrey asked if there is potential for a cul–de–sac configuration for Huntington Drive instead of connecting to the Claremont side on the west.
City Manager Starr indicated the North Montclair Downtown Specific Plan (NMDSP) provides for the street to connect; however, it would be the City Council’s decision and the specific plan could be amended. He added the streetscape plan would also provide additional studies for potential configurations of the street. He noted TCR planned the project on the assumption that the street would eventually become connected, as depicted in the NMDSP.
Council Member Lopez expressed his belief there is a lack of adequate parking within the project, noting he foresees residents and guests of the project and trail users parking on Huntington Drive and impacting the nearby residents. He also expressed concerns that the single–family home residents to the west of the development would be pushed out as a result of recommendations by future studies.
City Manager Starr stated the parking included within the development meets the requirements of the NMDSP, and added that deliveries can be made on the interior streets of the project.
Ms. Alisha Winterswyk, Best Best & Krieger, the City’s special counsel for planning and development, advised that the Housing Accountability Act prohibits the City Council from denying a project without making findings that relate directly to health and safety.
Moved by Council Member Martinez, seconded by Council Member Johnson, and carried 5–0, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 22–3366 making findings pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act and approving Tentative Parcel Map No. 20474 and a Precise Plan of Design for a proposed 302–unit residential apartment development within the North Montclair Downtown Specific Plan on 9.96 acres located approximately 200 feet west of the intersection of Monte Vista Avenue and Richton Street, west of the San Antonio Creek channel at 4700 Huntington Drive, incorporating the changes proposed by the applicant to Exhibit A.

Second Reading — Consider Adoption of Ordinance No. 22–999 Adding Chapter 4.76 to Title 4 of the Montclair Municipal Code Related to Imposing a Cannabis Business License Tax (Subject to Final Approval by the Voters at the November 8, 2022 General Municipal Election)
Mayor Dutrey declared it the time and place set for public hearing to consider Ordinance No. 22–999 and invited comments from the public.
There being no one in the audience wishing to speak, Mayor Dutrey closed the public hearing and returned the matter to the City Council for its consideration.
Mayor Pro Tem Ruh emphasized his belief that the voters should not be asked to put a tax into effect without first knowing the proposed regulations on the businesses to be taxed. He asked if the ordinances that were presented to the City Council in 2019 would go into effect upon voter approval at this November’s election.
City Manager Starr reiterated the prior ordinances are in no way connected to the ballot measures, and regulations would need to be considered separately by the City Council using the advisory measure as an indication of current voter support for cannabis businesses.
Council Member Lopez stated his understanding that the tax measure in no way addresses licensing, zoning, or the use of funds raised through the tax. He further noted this would allow taxation to be put into place at a rate under the City Council’s own discretion from zero percent up to seven percent, but only if cannabis businesses are legalized in Montclair by the City Council.
Moved by Council Member Lopez, seconded by Council Member Johnson, and carried that Ordinance No. 22–999 be read by number and title only, further reading be waived, and this be declared its second reading; and that the City Council adopt Ordinance No. 22– 999.
