FILE I.D.: CAC080
DEPT.: HUMAN SVCS.

PREPARER: A. PERALES
SUBJECT: CONSIDER APPROVAL OF FISCAL YEAR 2025–26 SCHEDULE OF RECOMMENDATIONS

FROM THE COMMUNITY ACTIVITIES COMMISSION FOR COMMUNITY BENEFITS

FUNDING
REASON FOR CONSIDERATION: Every year, the Human Services Department presents the City Council with a list of organizations recommended by the Community Activities Commission (CAC) to receive a portion of funds appropriated in the Community Benefit Fund. The City Council is requested to consider approving the CAC–recommended allocations to organizations on the Fiscal Year 2025–26 Community Benefits Assistance Program – Agency Funding Requests, as recommended at the end of this report.

BACKGROUND: The City Council established an annual policy of appropriating funds to social service agencies that provide special services to Montclair residents. At the direction of the City Council, the CAC conducts a public hearing each year to:
• Become acquainted with the requesting organizations and their service programs, • Inquire about requesting agencies' operating budgets and revenue sources in order to evaluate their financial needs, and
• Determine the appropriate use of funds that may have been previously allocated by the City to requesting agencies.

The CAC heard presentations at its regular meeting on Wednesday, March 4, 2026, from twelve organizations related to their requests for community benefits assistance, which are summarized below:

1. AgingNext. AgingNext was founded in 1975 to support and educate older adults and their families to maintain independence and to age well at home and in the community. In 2025, AgingNext supported 131 Montclair Senior and disabled participants with their programs. The funds received will be used to bring the Bone Builders Senior Exercise program to the Montclair Senior Center.

2. Assistance League of the Foothill Communities. The Assistance League of the Foothill Communities is an all–member volunteer philanthropic organization with a history of service in this area since 1953. Their mission is to transform the lives of children and adults through community programs. During the 2025– 26 school year approximately 225 Montclair students from low– to very low– income families received new clothing through Operation School Bell®. Funding this year would continue to support Operation School Bell® in Montclair.

3. Care & Company. Care & Company is a faith–based, nonprofit organization located in the City of Montclair that aids low–income individuals, senior citizens and families with necessary hygiene items through their Hygiene Pantry program. Funds received would be used to support the Hygiene Pantry by covering more than half of the cost of hygiene items for 2026.

MONTCLAIR CITY COUNCIL MEETING – 04/06/2026 Page 5 of 34

4. Christian Development Center (CDC). CDC, a faithbased organization, would use the funds to support their Food/Clothing Giveaway Program. The program serves over 500 families every month and approximately sixty percent of their participants are Montclair residents.

5. Foothill Family Shelter. The Foothill Family Shelter provides services for at–risk and homeless individuals and families. In 2025, one Montclair family successfully graduated from the Extended Housing Program into permanent housing, and the Help Desk supported approximately 491 Montclair families.

The funds received will be used to help provide shelter, food, and clothing for at–risk, homeless, and low–income families in Montclair.

6. Hope Through Housing Foundation (HTHF). HTHF is a social service organization whose mission is to break the cycle of generational poverty by providing services to the National Community Renaissance’s affordable housing communities. The funds will be used to continue the Building Bright Futures program—an after– school program for Montclair youth.

7. Love for Humanity. Love for Humanity is a volunteer–based nonprofit organization dedicated to alleviating hardships and easing difficult times by helping people in need. The funds received would be used towards the general operating support for the programs that benefit Montclair residents such as the Food Pantry at Our Lady of Lourdes Catholic Church, the Food Backpack Program with enough prepackaged food for students to last through the weekend, and the School Supplies Program which provides supplies to schools in Montclair for children in need.

8. Montclair Meals on Wheels. Montclair Meals on Wheels is an all–volunteer organization. Services include the home delivery of lunches to Montclair residents who are unable to shop for themselves or prepare their own meals. The program also focuses on eliminating isolation. The funds received would pay for the fixed costs needed to support the program such as the post office box rental, insurance, delivery supplies, and volunteer training.

9. Ontario–Montclair School District (OMSD) Health and Wellness Services. OMSD Health & Wellness Services coordinates services for struggling children and families in crisis. The mission of OMSD Health & Wellness Services is to provide excellent service with respect and integrity while committing to enhancing a foundation that supports self–sufficency in students, families, and staff. Last year, funds were used to provide case management to 199 families. This year, funds received would be used to support emergency assistance for Montclair residents in the Case Management Program.

10. Oparc. Since 1950, Oparc has served individuals with developmental and intellectual disabilities with employment, training, day programs, and community integration. The funding received last year supported the Creative Arts Program, specifically its Culinary Skill Development. The program teaches essential cooking skills, including techniques catering to dietary needs and ethnic cuisines and funding will help with purchasing essential supplies including food items for cooking classes and workshops. Funding this year would continue to support the Culinary Arts Program.

MONTCLAIR CITY COUNCIL MEETING – 04/06/2026 Page 6 of 34

11. Project Sister Family Services. Since 1972, Project Sister has worked to reduce the trauma and risk of sexual violence. Services provided include a 24–hour crisis hotline, advocacy and accompaniment, individual counseling and support groups, community education, teen programs, and child abuse prevention programs. Last year, Project Sister provided services to 4,555 individuals including 108 Monclair residents. This year, funding awarded would be used to provide a minimum of fifty residents of Montclair with fifty hours of service.

12. VNAcare. VNAcare provides home healthcare and hospice services in our community. Last year, funding was used to provide essential health related services and goods to twenty–four participants. This year, funding will continue to benefit the “Charitable Care” program, which provides assistance to underserved patient/families facing health challenges with limited financial resources. Funds will be allocated towards in–home nursing visits, the purchase of health–related services and grocery store/department store gift cards for patients/families needing food or household items.

FISCAL IMPACT: The recommended funding amounts have been limited to the Fiscal Year 2025–26 approved budget amount of $45,000.

RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends the City Council approve the Fiscal Year 2025– 26 schedule of recommendations from the Community Activities Commission for the Community Benefits Funding Program as follows:

SECTION: CONSENT - ADMIN. REPORTS
ITEM NO.: 3
FILE I.D.: PDT360
DEPT.: POLICE
PREPARER: R. DOMINGUEZ
SUBJECT: CONSIDER AUTHORIZING A $2,450 APPROPRIATION FROM THE STATE ASSET

FORFEITURE FUND FOR THE PURCHASE OF WORKSPACE FURNITURE FOR THE CRIME

ANALYST OFFICE IN THE POLICE DEPARTMENT
REASON FOR CONSIDERATION: The City Council is requested to consider authorizing a $2,450 appropriation from the State Asset Forfeiture Fund for the purchase of workspace furniture for the Crime Analyst office in the Police Department.

BACKGROUND: The position of Crime Analyst in the Police Department was created in March 2024 and was filled in July 2024. A functional and professional workspace is needed for this specialized position. With appropriate furniture, a dedicated Crime Analyst office could be established to enhance crime data analysis, intelligence–led policing, and overall operational effectiveness in an effort to improve crime trend identification, investigative support, and strategic deployment of resources.

The proposed purchase from National Business Furniture includes one L–shaped desk to provide adequate workspace for analytical duties; one two–drawer lateral storage file cabinet for secure document storage; one three–shelf bookcase for reference materials and operational binders; and one executive vinyl high–back chair with hinged arms to support extended periods of desk work.

FISCAL IMPACT: If approved, the purchase of office furniture would result in a one–time expenditure of $2,450 from State Asset Forfeiture Fund 1140. There is no fiscal impact to the General Fund.

RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends the City Council authorize a $2,450 appropriation from the State Asset Forfeiture Fund for the purchase of workspace furniture for the Crime Analyst office in the Police Department.

AGENDA REPORT
DATE: APRIL 6, 2026
SECTION: CONSENT - AGREEMENTS
ITEM NO.: 1
FILE I.D.: PDT175
DEPT.: POLICE
PREPARER: B. KUMANSKI
SUBJECT: CONSIDER APPROVAL OF AGREEMENT NO. 26–17 WITH THE COUNTY OF SAN BERNARDINO FOR EQUIPMENT MAINTENANCE AND ACCESS TO THE COUNTY’S

EMERGENCY RADIO COMMUNICATIONS SYSTEM
REASON FOR CONSIDERATION: The City Council is requested to consider approval of Agreement No. 26–17 with the County of San Bernardino for equipment maintenance and access to the County’s emergency radio communications system for the Police Department
A copy of proposed Agreement No. 26–17 is attached for the City Council review and consideration.

BACKGROUND: In 2007, the San Bernardino County Board of Supervisors approved a master agreement with the West End Communications Authority (WECA)—a joint powers agency that was established in 1991 for the purpose of implementing and administering an 800 MHz public safety trunked radio system used by the West End—in which the County assumed 800 MHz radio facilities and equipment owned by WECA. The City Council has since approved agreements with the County for radio access and maintenance services. The current agreement with the County, Agreement No. 21–21, expires on June 30, 2026. Approval of proposed Agreement No. 26–17 would continue the City’s access to the County’s emergency radio communications system for another five years through June 30, 2031. The County’s Innovation and Technology Department is authorized to discharge all functions ascribed to the County in proposed Agreement No. 26–17.

FISCAL IMPACT: The County notified the City in a letter dated October 31, 2025, of upcoming adjustments to the County’s service rates for FY 2026–27. Should these rates be approved by the County Board of Supervisors, the estimated annual cost for radio access and maintenance, including dispatch console access, maintenance, and replacement, is $234,511.56, as outlined in the table below:

Description QTY Rate Monthly Charge Annual Charge
Dispatch Console
Access 5 $487.15 $2,435.75 $29,229.00
Radio Access and
Maintenance 224 $76.37 $17,106.88 $205,282.56
Total Annual Cost $234,511.56
Attachment A of proposed Agreement No. 26–17 reflects the current rates in effect at the execution of this proposed Agreement; it does not reflect the proposed adjustments in the aforementioned letter. However, the maximum annual fiscal year amount of reimbursement under this proposed contract shall not exceed $250,000, and the County shall provide notice of any subsequent rate changes, which would become effective on July 1 of the following fiscal year.

MONTCLAIR CITY COUNCIL MEETING – 04/06/2026 Page 9 of 34 The annual cost is shared between the Police and Fire Departments and would be included in the City’s proposed Fiscal Year 2026–27 Budget in the SB 509 Public Safety Fund. Each Department would continue to include this cost in each subsequent budget.

RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends the City Council approve Agreement No. 26– 17 with the County of San Bernardino for equipment maintenance and access to the County’s emergency radio communications system.

ATTACHMENT B

PUBLIC SAFETY COMMUNICATIONS SERVICES
I. SERVICES UNDER THIS ATTACHMENT
This Attachment B is applicable for Public Safety Communications services which consist of the following services as defined in Attachment A, “ITD Rate Sheet – External Customers”, and as further defined within this Attachment B:

Dispatch Console Access, Maintenance, and Replacement
Pager Access
Radio Access and Maintenance
Radio Labor Services

II. SAN BERNARDINO COUNTY PUBLIC SAFETY COMMUNICATIONS SYSTEM ACCESS The San Bernardino County (County) Public Safety Communications System, hereinafter called “System”, is composed of two components known as the backbone and field equipment. The Backbone is defined as a portion of the System that provides the means by which dispatch centers, public safety locations, mobile radios, and portable radios communicate with each other through voice transmission. It is composed primarily of fixed relay equipment and associated centralized dispatch and control equipment, including Radio Mobile Data Access modems owned and maintained by the County. Field Equipment is defined as that portion of the System that uses the Backbone for communications and consists primarily of local dispatch equipment, mobile radios, and portable radios. a) System Purpose and Objective
The primary purpose of the System is to serve the County and accommodate participation by public safety and local governmental agencies in the County. Secondarily, other governmental and safety related non-governmental users may be allowed access to the System as conditions warrant and as provided for by this Contract. During a disaster, public safety users will receive priority in all areas, based entirely on emergency response responsibilities and access to the System by non-public safety users may be limited or suspended.
b) Backbone Operational Policies
Public safety and local governmental users shall have operational priority over all other users. In the case of a disaster, public safety users affected by the disaster shall have operational priority over all other public safety users, with County public safety users afforded the highest priority.

County has the final authority, at all times, to exercise discretionary control over the Backbone, and to otherwise manage Backbone traffic to ensure the ability of immediate-need public safety agencies to effectively communicate and for the overall benefit of all Backbone users. EXCEPT FOR GROSSLY

NEGLIENT ACTS OR OMISSIONS IN EXERCIZING ITS AUTHORITY UNDER THIS SECTION, THE COUNTY WILL HAVE NO LIABILITY WHATSOEVER FOR SYSTEM ALLOCATION DECISIONS. c) Backbone Modification (Post Backbone Implementation) (i) The County may determine that Backbone modification is needed from time to time to meet the changing needs of County and/or users.
(ii) Costs for Backbone modifications made after the execution of this Agreement shall be assessed as follows:
(a) If the modification benefits all users, each user will bear the pro rata cost of the modification based on the user’s derived benefit. Derived benefit shall be determined as a percentage based on the number of units that are in service by each end user divided by the total units being serviced by the Backbone infrastructure at the time the modification is made.

MONTCLAIR CITY COUNCIL MEETING – 04/06/2026 Page 21 of 34 Revised 1/10/23 Page 12 of 14
(b) If the modification improves service only for users in a definable local area, all users in such definable local area, and participating in and receiving direct benefit from the modification, shall share the costs for its implementation, operation, and maintenance equally. (c) If the modification only applies to a specific subset of users, the subset of users that caused the modification shall share the costs of the modification its implementation, operation, and maintenance equally.
(d) if the modification is requested by, and benefits only Customer, Customer shall bear the entire cost of the modification, its implementation, operation, and maintenance. (iii) Customer acknowledges and agrees that the County is the sole decision-maker in determining the allocation of costs for all Backbone modifications.
d) Field Equipment
(i) Customer shall, at Customer’s expense and future financial liability, purchase and maintain its own Field Equipment.
(ii) Customer shall, at Customer’s expense, expand or modify existing Customer structures, facilities, or dispatch centers as required to support the installation of Customer’s Field Equipment. (iii) Customer is solely responsible for ensuring that the Field Equipment is compatible with the System.
e) Related Non-Governmental Users
(i) At times, Customer’s non-governmental users may have a need to communicate with public safety/local government services during emergencies, or in their daily support of public safety/local government services. Where it is not in conflict with Federal Communications Commission (FCC) Regulations or other laws, and subject to approval by County, Customer’s non-governmental users may be allowed to have Backbone access. However, Customer’s non-governmental use of the Backbone for day-to-day operations shall be on a non-interfering, prioritized basis, and subject to channel loading limits, as determined by County.
(ii) County shall be responsible for coordinating Backbone access and implementing terms and conditions of such use, including one-time and recurring costs to be paid by new users. (iii) County shall monitor non-governmental users of the Backbone. If the needs of public safety/local government expand to the point of competition with non-governmental use of the Backbone, Customer’s non-governmental users may be required by the County to terminate their use of the Backbone.
(iv) Customer’s non-governmental users will be removed in reverse order of their entry into the System, i.e., the last user to enter the System will be the first user to be removed unless any other Customer’s non-governmental user voluntarily relinquishes access. (v) County will provide Customer ninety (90) days prior written notice of termination of access to allow Customer’s non-governmental users to remove their equipment or transfer their operations to another communications system. At the expiration of the notice period, the Customer’s nongovernmental users will be denied access to the System. f) Backbone Ownership
It is understood that County has ownership of the Backbone, and upon any termination of this Agreement by County or by Customer, any and all rights, title, and interest in the Backbone shall remain with the County.

CITY COUNCIL

AGENDA REPORT
DATE: APRIL 6, 2026
SECTION: CONSENT - RESOLUTIONS
ITEM NO.: 1
FILE I.D.: STA700A
DEPT.: PUBLIC WORKS
PREPARER: M. HEREDIA
SUBJECT: CONSIDER ADOPTION OF RESOLUTION NO. 26–3512 APPROVING THE 2026 TREE

CITY USA APPLICATION AND AUTHORIZING THE DIRECTOR OF PUBLIC WORKS TO

SIGN THE APPLICATION
REASON FOR CONSIDERATION: The City is required to meet certain standards to be designated as a Tree City USA and must apply to maintain the designation each year.

The City Council’s adoption of the proposed Resolution, as well as the issuance of an Arbor Day Proclamation, are required for the application. Therefore, the City Council is requested to consider adoption of Resolution No. 26–3512 approving the 2026 Tree City USA Application and authorizing the Public Works Director to sign the application.

BACKGROUND: As one of the world’s largest operating conservation foundations, the Arbor Day Foundation, through its members, partners, and programs, educates and engages stakeholders and communities across the globe to involve themselves in its mission of planting, nurturing and celebrating trees.

In 1998, the City of Montclair was designated as a Tree City USA community. This is an important designation because preference is often given to Tree City USA communities when allocations of grant money are available to fund the purchase of trees or a forestry program. The Arbor Day Foundation’s standards for becoming a Tree City USA community are attached. The City meets the requirements to be recognized as a Tree City USA community based on these standards as follows:
• Standard 1: Tree Board/Department/Chair/City Manager representation The Public Works Department oversees the City’s Forestry Program and the Public Works Director can sign the application with the City Council’s adoption of Resolution No. 26–3512. • Standard 2: Community Tree Ordinance
The City Council approved the City of Montclair Tree Policy on January 5, 2004, which provides for the protection and preservation of trees planted in City rights–of–way and at City facilities. • Standard 3: Forestry Program with an annual budget of at least $2 per capita The City spends an estimated total of $170,000 annually for the maintenance of trees including planting and tree removal. In May of this year, the City in partnership with Sustainable Claremont will have a clean-up and maintenance event at the Pacific Electric Trail where 50 trees were planted in 2024.
• Standard 4: Arbor Day Observance and Proclamation
The City will observe Friday, April 24, 2026, as Arbor Day. A proclamation for this declaration will be presented at the April 6, 2026, City Council meeting.

FISCAL IMPACT: There would be no direct fiscal impact on the General Fund related to the City Council’s adoption of Resolution No. 26–3512.

RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends the City Council adopt Resolution No. 26–3512 approving the 2026 Tree City USA application and authorizing the Director of Public Works to sign the application.

III. PUBLIC COMMENT — None
IV. COUNCIL WORKSHOP
A. Fiscal Year 2025–26 Midyear Budget Review
Director of Finance Kulbeck reported the status of the City’s financial operations at midyear in conjunction with the showing of a PowerPoint presentation.

City Manager Starr addressed the City Council's questions regarding police overtime, the sewer fund, sick leave redemption, expenditures on senior nutrition program meals, the allocation of online retail sales taxes, and increases in general liability and workers’ compensation expenses. He highlighted the ongoing decline compared to this time last year in the City’s sales tax revenue, primarily resulting from other municipalities in the County establishing tax–sharing agreements with online retailers such as Amazon, which involve designating distribution centers as the point–of–sale for goods shipped out from that facility to the customer, thereby directing the associated sales tax revenue to the host city rather than to the County tax pool, which is divided among all municipalities proportionally based on population.

City Manager Starr addressed current revenue projections, noting potential impacts from global events such as the recent war the county has entered into with Iran, and regional economic trends including declines in the construction of warehouses, layoffs in educational institutions and hospitals, and declining affordability. Additionally, he addressed the anticipated future impacts of the San Bernardino County Transportation Authority’s decision to defund light rail expansion to the City and, later, the broader County, noting potential impacts on future workforce development and economic growth.
