SUMMARY
F.1.t
Packet Pg. 750
Attachment: Planning Commission Staff Report December 22, 2022 (6119 : Plot Plan PEN21-0102 for an Automobile Parking Lot)
Lawrence Family Trust (“Applicant”) is requesting approval for an automobile parking lot on 9.14 acres located on the east side of Heacock Street north of the Perris Valley Storm Drain in the Moreno Valley Industrial Area Specific Plan 208, Clear Zone District (Specific Plan 208).
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
Project
The Applicant is proposing an automobile parking lot to accommodate approximately 194 parking stalls on a 9.14- acre parcel consistent with Moreno Valley Industrial Area Specific Plan 208, Clear Zone District (Specific Plan 208). The parking lot will include landscape, lighting, fencing, and water quality improvements.
Site/ Surrounding Area
The approximately 9.14-acre Project Site is located on the east side of Heacock Street just north of the Perris Valley Storm Drain.
Surrounding land uses include developed industrial uses to the north and northeast of the Project Site, within Specific Plan 208, the Perris Valley Storm Drain to the south of the Project Site, and March Air Reserve Base (MARB) to the west of the Project Site.
Access
Access to the site will be from a single 40- foot wide, 75- foot-deep driveway along Heacock Street, with a gated entry.
Design/Landscaping
The parking lot will be designed per the City standards, with AC pavement, drainage, and water quality treatment areas. All parking lot end islands and parking fingers within the lot will meet the minimum standards to include five feet of landscape areas, step- outs, and curbing.
Tubular steel fencing will be used along Heacock Street wrapping 100 feet on the north and south property lines, with coated chain link on the remaining portions of the perimeter fencing, consistent with the Specific Plan 208 requirements.
Drought-tolerant shrubs will be planted in the landscape areas within the parking lot and along the Heacock Street frontage. Due to the proximity to March Air Reserve Base trees are not required to ensure compliance with the March Air Reserve Base / Inland Port Airport Land Use Compatibility Plan.
REVIEW PROCESS
The Proposed Project has been considered by all appropriate agencies within and outside of the City, consistent with the standard review process required for these types of development applications. The Proposed Project was reviewed by the Project Review F.1.t
Packet Pg. 751
Attachment: Planning Commission Staff Report December 22, 2022 (6119 : Plot Plan PEN21-0102 for an Automobile Parking Lot)
Staff Committee as required by the Municipal Code. Following subsequent revisions and review by various staff, the Proposed Project’s entitlement package was deemed complete for processing for Planning Commission review and approval of the Proposed Project as designed and conditioned.
ENVIRONMENTAL
An Initial Study was prepared by CASC Engineering and Consulting, Inc., in compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and the CEQA Guidelines. The Initial Study examined the Proposed Project’s impacts on the environment. The Ini tial Study/Mitigation Negative Declaration (IS/MND) provides information in support of the finding that a Mitigated Negative Declaration serves as the appropriate CEQA documentation for the Proposed Project. With the implementation of the proposed mitigation measures, the Proposed Project will not have a significant effect on the environment. Technical studies prepared in support of the IS/MND include the following:
Air Quality and Global Climate Change Impact Analysis, Burrowing Owl Focused Survey Report, Cultural Report, Paleontological Report, Geotechnical Investigation and Percolation Test Results, EDR Radius Map, Preliminary Drainage Analysis, Preliminary Water Quality Maintenance Plan, and Traffic Impact Analysis. The electronic files for the IS/MND with appendices are attached to this staff report. Anyone wishing to view the documents can also do so at City Hall.
Mitigation Measures are recommended for the Proposed Project in the following areas:
Air Quality, Biological Resources, Cultural Tribal Resources, and Hydrology. T he measures for Tribal resources have been included to address input from the Tribal governments. The measures are intended to ensure that potential resources that might be discovered are protected. However, these measures are not required to address a known significant impact. Based on the Initial Study, and the proposed mitigation measures, the Proposed Project will not cause any significant impacts or environmental damage.
The public comment period for the Notice of Availability for the Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration began on September 29, 2022, and ended on October 18, 2022, which satisfies the required 20- day review period. As of the preparation of this staff report, no comments have been received. Should comments regarding the Proposed Project be received prior to the Planning Commission they will be provided at the public hearing.
NOTIFICATION
Consistent with the City Municipal Code provisions, public notice was sent to all property owners of record within 600 feet of the Project Site, posted on the Project Site, and published in the Press Enterprise Newspaper.
REVIEW AGENCY COMMENTS
Staff has coordinated with outside agencies where applicable, as is the standard review process for these development applications.

Subject: I-215 / Harley Knox Interchange Improvements Fair Share Assessment for the City of Perris
OC21-0858.01
The City of Perris, in cooperation with the California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) District 8, is evaluating proposed improvements at the Interstate 215 (I- 215) and Harley Knox Boulevard interchange. The project is needed to address the current and future operational deficiencies.
Fehr & Peers is working with Mark Thomas to prepare the Traffic Volumes Report and Traffic Operations Analysis Report (TOAR) in support of the Project Approval and Environmental Document (PA/ED) phase of the project.
To assist with delivering the project, the City is considering a variety of funding opportunities. Since the Harley Knox interchange is located at the northernmost area of the City, development from nearby communities will also benefit from the improvements to the interchange. As such, Fehr & Peers has completed a fair share assessment to determine where new trips to the interchange are expected to come from.
The remainder of this memorandum consists of the following sections:
• RICOM Modeling
• Fair Share Estimation
• Cost Estimation
• Conclusion

RIVCOM Modeling
Fehr & Peers utilized the RIVCOM travel demand forecasting model to complete a select link analysis between base year and future year. In a select link analysis, the model can track where trips using a specific link come from/go to as predicted by the travel demand forecasting model.
We completed the select link for each on and off ramp in addition to the railroad overcrossing and the freeway overcrossing. Our fair share calculation estimates the amoun t of new traffic added to each of these interchange components individually, but also aggregate d the data as a weighted average to estimate an overall interchange cost consideration.
The select link was run for the RIVCOM model base year model and future y ear model . The difference between the two, or the growth anticipated by the model, was then estimated and aggregated up to where each trip end is located. This was then identified by jurisdictional boundary to where the trips using the interchange origin ated from or were destined to which allowed us to estimate a fair-share contribution by agency.
Prior to running the future year travel demand forecasting model, we coordinated with the County of Riverside, City of Perris, and the City of Moreno Valley to ensure that we incorporated all planned development in the area that may use the interchange into the RIVCOM travel demand model. The lists of projects received from these agencies is attached.
Fair Share Estimation
As noted above, fair share was estimated for each interchange component and for the interchange as a whole using the weighted average of traffic to each interchange component. This could be useful if the City moves forward with a fair share funding agreement with nearby agencies to assist in delivering improvements to the interchange.
The fair share estimates focused in on growth – e.g. the growth in traffic between the base year model and the future year model. This growth was also allocated to the locations where trips came from/went to and was allocated to those jurisdictions accordingly. The resulting fair share calculations presented in Table 1 . Detailed model output information is attached to this memorandum.
Cost Estimates
Preliminary draft cost estimates were developed for the project by Mark Thomas & Company, the civil engineering lead for the PA/ED phase of the project. Cost estimates for the interchange were prepared denoting costs for each interchange component in addition to the total cost of the interchange. The cost estimate is presented as Attachment C. For this effort, Fehr & Peers utilized the escalated cost estimate for the Diverging Diamond Alternative.

Please note that Mark Thomas & Company provided Fehr & Peers with direction about key cost estimate assumptions and how they should be allocated to each intercha nge component. For example, although the bridge components are a stand-alone cost estimate, the roadway and right- of-way information is not broken out by interchange component. Mark Thomas & Company identified that the ramp improvements are fairly comparable and should be split up proportionately (e.g. 25% to each ramp), but the right -of-way costs should be split only between the northbound ramps (50% to each ramp). The following costs were included into the fair share assessment (note, total component costs may not add up to total interchange costs due to rounding):
• Total interchange cost - $68,300,000
o Freeway Overcrossing Structure - $16,414,000
o Railroad Overcrossing Structure - $12,403,000
o Southbound Off-Ramp - $9,601,000
o Southbound On-Ramp - $9,601,000
o Northbound Off-Ramp – $10,111,000
o Northbound On-Ramp - $10,111,000
These cost estimates were combined with the fair share estimates by agency to estimate the fair share attributable to each agency.
Conclusions
The results of the fair share asses sment indicate that most of the traffic expected to be added to the Harley Knox interchange is not to/from the City of Perris – rather origins/destinations in unincorporated Riverside County, City of Moreno Valley, and locations that are external to the travel demand model. Specifically, the six largest contributions the model anticipated are:
1. Unincorporated Riverside County – 53%
2. Moreno Valley – 16%
3. Model Externalities (e.g. outside of the model area) – 9%
4. Perris – 6%
5. Riverside – 3%
6. Menifee – 3%
The top five nearby local agencies (Riverside County, Moreno Valley, Perris, Riverside, and Menifee) fair share contributions were applied to the cost estimates to estimate the total fair share contribution for each agency based on the traffic they add to the interchange.

As shown above, although the interchange is within the City of Perris, most of the growth anticipated to be added to the interchange comes from other jurisdictions. As such, it appears appropriate to coordinate with nearby agencies to develop a funding approach that is inclusive in nature. Specifically, for nearby agencies who contribute traffic to the Harley Knox interchange, it would be appropriate for them to contribute to the interchange delivery.

Subject: I-215 / Harley Knox Interchange Improvements Fair Share Assessment for the City of Perris
OC21-0858.01
The City of Perris, in cooperation with the California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) District 8, is evaluating proposed improvements at the Interstate 215 (I- 215) and Harley Knox Boulevard interchange. The project is needed to address the current and future operational deficiencies.
Fehr & Peers is working with Mark Thomas to prepare the Traffic Volumes Report and Traffic Operations Analysis Report (TOAR) in support of the Project Approval and Environmental Document (PA/ED) phase of the project.
To assist with delivering the project, the City is considering a variety of funding opportunities. Since the Harley Knox interchange is located at the northernmost area of the City, development from nearby communities will also benefit from the improvements to the interchange. As such, Fehr & Peers has completed a fair share assessment to determine where new trips to the interchange are expected to come from.
The remainder of this memorandum consists of the following sections:
• RICOM Modeling
• Fair Share Estimation
• Cost Estimation
• Conclusion

RIVCOM Modeling
Fehr & Peers utilized the RIVCOM travel demand forecasting model to complete a select link analysis between base year and future year. In a select link analysis, the model can track where trips using a specific link come from/go to as predicted by the travel demand forecasting model.
We completed the select link for each on and off ramp in addition to the railroad overcrossing and the freeway overcrossing. Our fair share calculation estimates the amoun t of new traffic added to each of these interchange components individually, but also aggregate d the data as a weighted average to estimate an overall interchange cost consideration.
The select link was run for the RIVCOM model base year model and future y ear model . The difference between the two, or the growth anticipated by the model, was then estimated and aggregated up to where each trip end is located. This was then identified by jurisdictional boundary to where the trips using the interchange origin ated from or were destined to which allowed us to estimate a fair-share contribution by agency.
Prior to running the future year travel demand forecasting model, we coordinated with the County of Riverside, City of Perris, and the City of Moreno Valley to ensure that we incorporated all planned development in the area that may use the interchange into the RIVCOM travel demand model. The lists of projects received from these agencies is attached.
Fair Share Estimation
As noted above, fair share was estimated for each interchange component and for the interchange as a whole using the weighted average of traffic to each interchange component. This could be useful if the City moves forward with a fair share funding agreement with nearby agencies to assist in delivering improvements to the interchange.
The fair share estimates focused in on growth – e.g. the growth in traffic between the base year model and the future year model. This growth was also allocated to the locations where trips came from/went to and was allocated to those jurisdictions accordingly. The resulting fair share calculations presented in Table 1 . Detailed model output information is attached to this memorandum.
Cost Estimates
Preliminary draft cost estimates were developed for the project by Mark Thomas & Company, the civil engineering lead for the PA/ED phase of the project. Cost estimates for the interchange were prepared denoting costs for each interchange component in addition to the total cost of the interchange. The cost estimate is presented as Attachment C. For this effort, Fehr & Peers utilized the escalated cost estimate for the Diverging Diamond Alternative.

Please note that Mark Thomas & Company provided Fehr & Peers with direction about key cost estimate assumptions and how they should be allocated to each intercha nge component. For example, although the bridge components are a stand-alone cost estimate, the roadway and right- of-way information is not broken out by interchange component. Mark Thomas & Company identified that the ramp improvements are fairly comparable and should be split up proportionately (e.g. 25% to each ramp), but the right -of-way costs should be split only between the northbound ramps (50% to each ramp). The following costs were included into the fair share assessment (note, total component costs may not add up to total interchange costs due to rounding):
• Total interchange cost - $68,300,000
o Freeway Overcrossing Structure - $16,414,000
o Railroad Overcrossing Structure - $12,403,000
o Southbound Off-Ramp - $9,601,000
o Southbound On-Ramp - $9,601,000
o Northbound Off-Ramp – $10,111,000
o Northbound On-Ramp - $10,111,000
These cost estimates were combined with the fair share estimates by agency to estimate the fair share attributable to each agency.
Conclusions
The results of the fair share asses sment indicate that most of the traffic expected to be added to the Harley Knox interchange is not to/from the City of Perris – rather origins/destinations in unincorporated Riverside County, City of Moreno Valley, and locations that are external to the travel demand model.

Moreno Valley CA 92553
RE: Concerns regarding t he s afety of p eople as r aised by PEN2 1-0102 Au tomobile Parking Lot on Heacock Street
To Ms. Descoteaux,
On behalf of the Riverside County Airport Land Use Com mission (the ALUC), I would like to submit this letter of concern regarding PEN21-0102 Automobile Parking Lot on Heacock Street (the project).
The ALUC’s goal is defined in the Public Utilities Code (PUC) Section 21670(a) declaring that:
“(1) It is in the public interest to provide for the orderly development of each public use airport in this state and the area surrounding these airports so as to promote the overall goals and objectives of the C alifornia airport noise standards adopted pursuant to Section 21669 and to prevent the creation of new noise and safety problems. (2
) It is the purpose of this article to protect public health , safety, and welfare by ensuring the orderly expansion of airports and the adoption of land use measures that minimize the public’s exposure to excessive noise and safety hazards within areas around the public airports to the extent that these areas are not already devoted to incompatible uses.”
The A
LUC recognizes the City of Moreno Valley’s (the City) authority and obligation to review non-legislative projects for airport land use compatibility in accordance with the 2014 March Air Reserve Base/Inland Port Airport Land Use Compatibility Plan (March ALUCP), to which the City’s General Plan was found consistent in 2021. Therefore, as the lead jurisdiction performing the airport land use compatibility review for the project, the City should also be consistent with not just the March ALUCP, but the intent and spirit of the PUC goals to protect the public health, safety, and welfare from inconsistent and incompatible land uses. As instructed by PUC Section 21674.7, “[i]t is the intent of the Legislature to discourage incompatible land uses near existing airports… It is the intent of the Legislature that local agencies shall be guided by the height, use, noise, safety, and density criteria that are compatible with airport operations, as established by this article, and referred to as the Airport Land Use Planning Handbook, published by the division, and any applicable federal aviation regulations, including, but not limited to, Part 77 (commencing with Section 77.1) of Title 14 of the Code of Federal Regulations, to the extent that the criteria has been incorporated into the plan prepared by a commission pursuant to Section 21675.”
Land U
se Planning around military airports such as March Air Reserve Base/Inland Port raises unique and com plex rules and issue s. The purpose of this letter is to assist the City in that analysis by identifying some of those issues, rules and how they apply to this project.
The AL
UC has concerns that the project will have significant impacts to the public health and safety based on its use as a parking lot and its location within the Compatibility Zone A (Clear F.1.x
Packet Pg. 820
Attachment: Comments Received (6119 : Plot Plan PEN21-0102 for an Automobile Parking Lot)
2 Zone) as identified in the March ALUCP, as well as identified as the Clear Zone in the 2018 Air Force Air Installation Compatible Use Study (AICUZ), which is defined as the:
“square area beyond the end of the runway and centered on the runway cente rline extending outward for 3,000 feet… a Clear Zone is required for all active runways and should remain undeveloped.”
The Clear Zone is a long recognized critical area located at the end of the runway where vital aviation maneuvers occur for take-off and landing. The 2005 AICUZ study provides aircraft data (1968-1995) identifying that 27.4% of all aircraft accidents occur within t he Clear Zone . The proposal to es tablish a parki ng lot in the Clear Zone puts people on the ground and in the aircraft at risk needlessly, especially when the parking lot could be relocated to a more appropriate airport zone further away from the runway and out of the Clear Zone.
The March ALUCP Compatibility Zone Factors Table MA-1 (Noise and Overflight Factors/Safety and Airspace Protection Factors) identifies the Clear Zone as a “Very High” Risk Level, and a “Very High” Noise Impact due to the high CNEL noise contour range between 65 – 75 dB and single-event noise levels.
The fundamental purpose of the March ALUCP is to promote appropriate land use compatibility around March Air Reserve Base by protecting public health, safety, and welfare. This is largely implemented by Table MA-2 Basic Compatibility criteria in the plan.
Table MA-2 provides the land use compatibility criteria for the Clear Zone which includes non- residential intensity, prohibited uses, and required open land.
Firstly, the non-residential intensity criteria for the Clear Zone is ZERO ( 0) people for both average and single acre intensity . Although the project will generate a very low occupancy based on the persons in each vehicle entering the site, any persons entering the site would immediately result in exceeding the non-residential average and single acre intensity criteria of ZERO (0) people.
Secondly, Table MA-2 provides a list of prohibited uses for the Clear Zone, which includes: all non-aeronautical structures, assemblages of p eople, objects exceeding FAR Part 77 height limits, all storage of hazardous materials, and hazards to flight.
1. The ALUCP analysis shows that the proposed parking lot land use, structures and vehicles within it, are considered non-aeronautical structures and would therefore be a prohibited use, because they do not serve any aeronautical functions to the March Air Reserve Base or Inland Port Airport.
2. Similar to the comment raised above regarding intensity, any occupanc y on the site would constitute “assemblages of people” and therefore would be a prohibited use.
3. Part 77 is the FAA OES process to determine if a project would impact air navigation.
The elevation of runway 14-32 at its southerly terminus is 1,488 feet above mean sea level (AMSL). At a distance of approximately 1,000 feet from the project to the nearest point on the runway, Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) Part 77 notification threshold would be 1,498 feet AMSL. The site elevation is 1,473 feet AMSL. Therefore, any objects greater than 25 feet in height would be exceed the FAA threshold and would be considered a prohibited use. These objects could include buildings, structures, landscaping, and in the project ‘s case, any tall vehicles or trailers that would exceed 25 feet in height.

3 4. There is a concern that vehicles, truck trailers, and shipping containers in the parking lot could contain hazardous materials . A definition of hazardous materials is provided in Table MA-2 footnote 14 (in the context of Accident Potential Zones) as toxic, explosive, corrosive. In the event an air craft was to crash into a container that was st oring hazardous materials, the resulting col lision/explosion would be magnified due to the hazardous materials, which would further jeopardize the live s of the people on the ground and in the aircraft.
5. Hazards to flight is a prohibited use in the Clear Zone and is defined in Footnote #8 of Table MA-2 as: “Hazards to flight include physical (e.g. tall objects), visual, and electronic forms of interference with the safety of ai rcraft operations ”. The proposed parking lot may contain structures and vehicles, truck trailers, and cargo containers that could potentially interfere with the safety of aircraft operations.
Lastly, Table MA-2 identifies that in the Clear Zone, the required open land is “All Remaining”, which would consist of the entire site. The purpose of the ALUC open land is that in the event an aircraft is forced to make an emergency landing, the risks to the people on board can be best minimized by providing as much open land area as possible.
In 2021, the City’s General Plan ‘2040’ and Zoning Code Amendments (PEN19-0240, PEN21- 0030) were found consistent with the March ALUCP by the ALUC via ZAP1465MA21. These regulatory documents contained language requiring consistency with the March ALUCP and the Air Force Ins truction (AFI) 32-7063, which addresses Air Force policies on Land Use Compatibility in accordance with Department of Defense Instruction (DoDI) No. 4165.57.
As part of this consistency finding by ALUC, a special recommendation was also made :
1. Add to the Circulation Element a discussion identifying Heacock Street’s location within Zone A (Clear Zone) and the challenges that it presents with regards to satisfying Clear Zone criteria set forth in the 2014 March Air Reserve Base/Inland Port Airport Land Use Compatibility Plan, the 2018 Air Installation Compatible Use Zone study, and the Department of Defense Instruction No. 4165.57. The following policy shall be added to the Circulation Element to ensure cons istency with these plans: “C.2-13. The City will coordinate with the March Air Reserve Base and Airport Land Use Commission staff to ensure that Heacock Street w ithin the Clear Zone is consistent with future land use plans adopted by the March Air Reserve Base and/or the Airport Land Use Commission”.
The incorporatio n of this recommendation highlights the significan t challenges concerning Heacock Street and the larger issues associated with the Clear Zone criteria. Furthermore, it also underlines the City’s commitment in satisfying the various issues within the Clear Zone as it relates to the March ALUCP, and to the Air Force AFI 32-7063 and DoDI No. 4165.57. Lastly, it emphasizes the City’s cooperation and coordination with the March Air Reserve Base and ALUC staff to ensure consistency of Heacock Street and the Clear Zone with land use compatibility plans adopted by ALUC and by the March Air Reserve Base.
A big reason as to why the City’s General Plan was f ound consistent with the March ALUCP was because it included several goals and policies from the Land Use and Safety Elements which promoted appropriate land use development around March Air Reserve Base in order to protect the public health, welfare and safety.
Land Use Element:
Policy LCC.1-11. “Require new development be compatible with the standards for land F.1.x
Packet Pg. 822
Attachment: Comments Received (6119 : Plot Plan PEN21-0102 for an Automobile Parking Lot)
4 uses, density and intensity specified in the March Air Reserve Base/Inland Port Airport Land Use Compatibility Plan”.
Safety Element:
Goal S-4. “Minimize airp ort safety hazards and promote compatibility within airport operations”.
Policy S.4.1. “Limit hazards from flight operations in Moreno Valley through consistency with the March Air Reserve Base/Inland Port Airport Land Use Compatibility Plan”.
Policy S.4-2. “Review all projects within the March Air Reserve Base/Inland Port Airport Influence Area for conformance with the compatibility criteria outlined in the March ALUC Plan”.
Policy S.4-3. “Minimize the potential for development adjacent to the March Air Reserve Base/Inland Port Airport to adversely affect airport operations such as by reducing the potential for bird strikes , electromagnetic interference, and glare” (as proposed in the City’s errata change list).
The ALUC contends that the proposed parking lot is not consistent with these airport land use compatibility goals and policies specified in the City’s General Plan as it would actively put people on the ground and in aircraft at harms risk in the Clear Zone where, as already stated above, 27.4% of all aircraft accidents occur.
In addition to the General Plan ‘ 2040’ d ocuments, the City also included Zoning Code Amendments as part of its consistency finding. These documents also included language requiring consistency with the March ALUCP and the Air Force Instruction AFI 32-7063 and DoDI No. 4165.57.
1. Section 9.07.060 relates to Airport Land Use Compatibility Plan and directly references the March ALUCP and Table MA-2 criteria. It also provides the intent of the section as; “The purpose of this chapter is to esta blish and imple ment the requirements of the Riverside County Airport Land Use Compatibili ty Pla n for the March Air Reserve Base/Inland Port Airport that affects land uses within the City of Moreno Valley and to encourage future development that is compatible with the con tinued operation of the March Air Reserve Base. It is also the intent of this section to recognize and implement the purpose for the guidelines contained in the March Air Reserve Base air installation compatible use zone report”.
Sub-section D states “For property located within a compatibility zone and subject to the airport land use compatibility plan policies and criteria, the ALUCP may be more restrictive than what would otherwise be allowed per City zoning designation applicable to the property . In addition to complying with the zoning requirements of this title, proposed uses and development on property within an airport compatibility zone must be determined to be consistent with, and comply with the comp atibility criteria of the applicable compatibility zone and airport land use compatibility plan”.
Specifically, Section 9.07.060.B states “The prov isions of the ALUCP shall apply in addition to the provisions of the underlying district. If there are inconsistencies between the underlying zones and the ALUCP, the ALUCP shall take precedence”. This language provides an additional layer of conformance with the March ALUCP.
In addition, Section 9.07.060.B required “ development within the Accident Potential F.1.x
Packet Pg. 823
Attachment: Comments Received (6119 : Plot Plan PEN21-0102 for an Automobile Parking Lot)
5 Zones (APZ’s) be consistent with the Air Force Instruction 32-7063, which addresses Air Force policies on Land Use Compatibili ty in accordance with Department of D efense Instruction (DoDI) No. 4165.57. More specifically, future development within the APZs shall be consistent with the DoDI acceptable/not acceptable land use tables, as well as its intensity criteria, which limits intensity to a maximum of 25 people in any given acre in APZ-I and to a maximum of 50 people in any given acre in APZ-II”.
It is the opinion of the ALUC that the proposed parking lot in the Clear Zone is inconsistent with the purpose and intent of these Zoning Code Amendments. The proposed parking lot is not an example of “encourage future development that is compati ble with the continued operation of the March Air Reserve Base”, actually, quite the opposite, as the proposed parking lot in the Clear Zone would hav e to be identified as ‘encroachment’ by the March Air Reserve Base, jeopardizing its future operations and existence.
The ALUC also contends that the Zoning Code Amendments establishes protocol in the event of multiple planning and airport zones are present, and that the correct protocol is “the provisions of the ALUCP shall apply in addition to the provi sions of the underlying district. If there are inconsistencies between the underlying zones and the ALUC P, the A LUCP shall take precedence”. In the case of the proposed parking lot, the March ALUCP must take precedence over underlying planning zones in the event there are inconsistencies between the two in order to satisfy the goal and policies of protecting the public health, welfare, and safety.
The Zoning Code Amendments also contain language referencing conformity to the Air Force AFI 32-7063 and DoDI No. 4165.57 in Section 9.07.060.B (mentioned above), and Sub-section I.5 which states : “ For discretiona ry actions proposed within the March ARB/IP A Accident Potential Zones (APZ -I and APZ-I I) or within the Clear Zone, the proposed use and/or development shall, in addition to m eeting the compatibility criteria of the March ALUCP, be consistent with current Air Force Guidance…”.
The ALUC also recognizes the Air Force’s jurisdiction in the Clear Zone, as set forth in the Air Force AFI 32-7063 and DoDI No. 4165. 57, as well as the latest 2018 AICUZ. Table A- 1 Appendix A of the 2018 AICUZ provides Land Use Compatibility Tables, which provides land use compatibility guidelines within the Clear Zones and Acc ident Potential Zones I and I I (APZs). More specifically, it references under SLUCM (Standard Land Use Coding Manual) recommendation No. 46: Automobile Parking, is identified as a “NO” land use designation in the Clear Zone. The ALUC concurs with the Air Force 2018 AICUZ land use table, and that the placing of the proposed parking lot in the Clear Zone is not just inconsistent with the 2018 AICUZ and March ALUCP, but also a public health and safety risk.
Airport Land Use analysis also includes considering airport related restrictions on the title to the subject property. Riverside County Official Document recorded September 27, 1984, Record Document Number 209559, is a Clear Zone Easement that encumbers the property which was purchased by the United States of America for the sum of $77,090.00, from Jennie Iparagurrie.
The docum ent identifies the easement as “ being ac quired for the use of the Air Force in connection with the March Air Force Base AICUZ projec t.”
The document details rights granted in the easement, including but not limited to, Number 9 which states:
“T he right to prohibit all land uses other than the following: a. agriculture; b. grazing (excluding feed lots and dairy her ds); c. permanent open space; d. existing water areas; e. rights-of-ways for fenced two-land highways, without sidewalks or bicycle trails, and single tract railroads; and f. communications and utilities rights-of-ways”.

Attachment: Comments Received (6119 : Plot Plan PEN21-0102 for an Automobile Parking Lot) 6 The restrictive easement on the property in the Clear Zone, and its “ right to prohibit all land uses” other than those specifically above, omits and prohibits parking lots use in the Clear Zone.
The itemized list of permitted uses illustrates a well-defined picture of what is appropriate on this land in the Clear Zone. The proposed parking lot is clearly inconsistent with these parameters.
Th
e ALUC presents these concerns to the City for its consideration while reviewing this parking lot in the Clear Zone. The role of the ALUC and the March ALUCP is to ensure that appropriate and compatible land uses are planned around the March Air Reserve Base in order to protect the public health, welfare, and safety. Incompatible land uses encroaching onto the Base must be avoided for that purpose and in order to secure the Base’s financial, military, and operational support to the community for the future. In adopting its General Plan 2040 and the cur rent Zoning Ordinance the City of Moreno Valley has committed to apply and enforce these policies.

erely,

Subject: Planning Commission Public Hearing #1 – Plot Plan (PEN21-0102) for an automobile parking lot on 9.14 acres in the Moreno Valley Industrial Area Specific Plan, Clear Zone District (Specific Plan 208)
Dear Ms. Descoteaux,
I am writing to you on behalf of the City of Norco to express the City’s opposition to Planning Commission Public Hearing #1 regarding PEN21-0102.
This is an issue of regional concern, as it relates to the future of March Air Reserve Base. As a city that benefits from the economic stimulus of a military base, the City of Norco recognizes that March Air Reserve Base is a significant economic driver for the region. While this is in some ways distant from Norco in miles, it is not distant in terms of economic impact.
The proposed development could jeopardize the future of March Air Reserve Base. The proposed development is inconsistent with the Land Use Compatibility Plan and may interfere with runway use, which in turn could harm projects and initiatives of regional significance, including the sizeable investment in new aerial refueling aircraft that will operate out of the Base.
This region has a considerable stake in the continued operation and success of March Air Reserve Base, therefore the City of Norco urges the Moreno Valley Planning Commission to oppose this proposed development.
Thank you for considering our comments. Please contact me if you have any questions or would like to discuss the above concern in further detail.
Sincerely,
Lori Sassoon
City Manager

RE: Plot Plan PEN21-0102 (the “Proposed Plan”) for an automobile parking lot on 9.4 acres in Moreno Valley Industrial Ave Plan
Ms. Descoteaux:
I am providing this letter in support of the Proposed Plan for an automobile parking lot on 9.4 acres in Moreno Valley.
A. I have conducted an analysis of all of the properties located in the Clear Zone District that applies to the subject property. I have identified thirty-three (33) properties total of which twenty-three (23) properties are privately owned and the remaining are government owned.
SUMMARY OF PROPERTY FINDINGS (all located in the Clear Zone):
There are a total of seven properties (6-privately owned & 1-government owned) which have significant commercial, industrial and residential development ranging from a double wide trailer, SFR, barn, structures, truck/auto parking lots, trailer parking, storage yard, scrap yard, fencing and more.
1. Two of seven properties have no recorded avigation easements.
2. Four of the five remaining parcels are subject to the same or similar clear zone easement as the subject property.
a. One of the properties (APN 294-220-013) subject to the clear zone easement, has an additional Avigation Easement and Release from owner (Grantor) and accepted by MARB— on behalf of the March Inland Port Airport Authority, and City of Perris (Grantees) in order to authorize the owner’s development on the property.
3. Notably one parcel (APN 316-211-014) owned by U.S.A. includes residential development including a double wide trailer, barn, house and parking lot.
Some of the parties objecting to the Proposed Plan, including MARB, USAF, Riverside County/ALUC, and others, have stated that parking lots are prohibited in the clear zone. Based on these findings parking lots, and many other uses, including residential, parking, structures, commercial and industrial activities, are allowed in the clear zone.
See attached aerial map and tables of properties.
If these current uses are permitted on other properties in the clear zone, then they are compatible with the goals of promoting safety and regional economic development and therefore compatible under the Proposed Plan.
F.1.x
Packet Pg. 839
Attachment: Comments Received (6119 : Plot Plan PEN21-0102 for an Automobile Parking Lot) B. ECONOMIC BENEFIT OF THE PROPOSED PLAN:
MARB is a joint use airport with commercial, logistical and general aviation activity for corporate aircraft and is centered in one of the fastest growing distribution and logistics areas of the United States.
Facilities include Jet-A-Way Café, Pilot’s Planning Room, Coffee Bar, Conference Room, Pilot’s Theater Room, Luxury crew cars, Hertz Rent-a-Cars and Catering. MARB is also home to Amazon Air which according to an article in the Press-Enterprise on 7/28/2019, was approved for 5 cargo flights a day from MARB.
It is reasonable to believe that a parking lot adjacent to this logistics transportation hub would be highly contributory to the region’s long-term economic development.
C. SAFETY CONCERNS:
The subject property is approximately 1,600 - 1700 feet from the end of the runway. There are many examples of parking lots and other significant commercial development within the same proximity to a military or commercial runway.
For example, at Joint Base Pearl Harbor Hickam (JBPHH) which shares runways and taxiways with the Daniel K. Inouye International Airport on the island of Oahu, Hawaii, there are multiple parking lots adjacent to the runways, some within 1,200 feet.
More locally at LAX, which has above ground and ground level parking lots, an In-N-Out Burger and other structures all within 1,670 feet of the runway. And Ontario airport which has several semi- trailer parking lots at the end of the runway all within 1,200 feet.
See attached diagrams.
It is reasonable to believe that a parking lot adjacent to MARB poses no greater risk to safety than the above cited airports.
I appreciate the opportunity to present these findings and observations in support of the Proposed Plan.
For the reasons stated above, the City of Moreno Valley should not discriminate against the applicant and approve the proposed plot plan.
Sincerely,
Martin Clouser

Chair Alvin DeJohnette
City of Moreno Valley Planning Commission 14177

Moreno Valley, CA 92553
RE: Automobile Parking Lot – OPPOSITION
Dear Chair Alvin:
On behalf of the Greater Riverside Chambers of Commerce and its Military Affairs Council, representing over 1,200 local employers and 110,000 jobs in the Inland Southern California region, we respectfully OPPOSE the proposal for a trailer truck parking lot to be located on the East Side of Heacock Street north of the Perris Valley Storm Drain.
We are uncertain and concerned that March Air Reserve Base (MARB) has not been considered for coordination in the standard review process of the proposed project. This project remains unreviewed by the Airport Land Use Commission to determine and provide comments on the potential aerial safety threat to operations in MARB. Persisting safety concerns remain with the project’s incompatibility with the Air Installations Compatible Use Zones (AICUZ) study that promotes the proactive and collaborative planning for compatible development to sustain the mission and the economic impact of MARB.
In preservation of March Air Reserve Base and its economic impact to the City of Riverside, City of Moreno Valley, and the City of Perris we ask for your opposition of the proposed Truck Trailer Parking Lot. The base contributes over $500 million to the region annually and we advocate for its continued operations as an anchor for a strong local economy.
Th
ank you for your consideration. Should you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact the Chamber at 951-683-7100.
Respectfully,
Brandon Ferrell

FROM: Brian Mohan, Assistant City Manager
AGENDA DATE: February 21, 2023
TITLE: PUBLIC HEARING FOR ONE NATIONAL POLLUTANT
DISCHARGE ELIMINATION SYSTEM MAIL BALLOT
PROCEEDING
RECOMMENDED ACTION
Recommendations: That the City Council:
1. Conduct the Public Hearing and accept public testimony for the mail ballot proceeding for the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) Residential Regulatory Rate to be applied to the property tax bill of the parcel s identified herein (Hakan Buvan, located near the northeast corner of Moreno Beach Dr. and Cactus Ave., on Bradshaw Circle);
2. Direct the City Clerk to open and count the returned NPDES ballot;
3. Verify and accept the results of the mail ballot proceeding as maintained by the City Clerk on the Official Tally Sheet and if approved, set the rate and impose the applicable NPDES Regulatory Rate on the Assessor’s Parcel Numbers as mentioned;
4. Receive and file the Official Tally Sheet with the City Clerk’s office.
SUMMARY
The action before the City Council is to conduct a Public Hearing for one National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) mail ballot proceeding. The process to accept two parcels into the City’s NPDES funding program impacts only the property owner identified below, not the general citizens or taxpayers of the City.
F.2
Packet Pg. 860
DISCUSSION
The Clean Water Act of 1987 established requirements for the discharge of Urban Runoff from Municipal Separate Storm Sewer Systems under the NPDES program. The Santa Ana Re gional Water Quality Control Board administers the NPDES program through the issuance of a Permit. The NPDES program requires public agencies to obtain coverage under the Permit to discharge urban stormwater runoff from municipally owned drainage facilitie s, including streets, highways, storm drains, and flood control channels. The City’s current NPDES Permit requires all new development projects to comply with stormwater management requirements.
The City Council originally adopted the NPDES Residential Regulatory Rate on June 10, 2003. Each fiscal year, the City Council reviews and sets the rates for the following fiscal year.
As a condition of approval for the development project identified below, the applicant is required to provide a n ongoing funding source for the NPDES program. The funding is used to mitigate the increase in costs to the NPDES program, which will be created by their development project.

Residential Rate
1The parcel’s development status will be evaluated, and the applied rate calculated in accordance with the rate schedule, prior to levying the NPDES rate on the property tax roll each year. The applied rate is the amount applied to the property tax bill. It cannot exceed the maximum rate.
An applicant has two options to satisfy the condition of approval:
1. The property owner a pproves the NPDES rate and authorize s the City to collect the rate on the annual Riverside County property tax bill through participation in a successful mail ballot proceeding; or
2. The applicant funds an endowment.
The Property Owner listed above elected to have the NPDES rate applied to the annual property tax bill of the property under development. Proposition 218 outlines the process to approve new charges, or an increase to existing charges, on property tax bills , which includes conducting a mail ballot proceeding, noticing requirements, timing of noticing, and providing an opportunity for the property owner to address the City Council (i.e., public comment portion of the Public Hearing). A notice describing the p urpose and amount of the charge, including the potential annual inflationary adjustment, and a ballot for the property was mailed to the Property Owner at least 45 -days in advance of tonight’s meeting (see Attachment 1). The ballot is due to the City Clerk prior to the close F.2
Packet Pg. 861
of the Public Hearing. The ballot can be opened and counted, and results announced, at the close of the Public Hearing.
The condition of approval to provide a funding source for the NPDES program will be satisfied with a property owner’s approval of the NPDES mail ballot (i.e., marked yes and signed) and City Council acceptance of the results. In the event the ballot is not returned, is not approved, or is invalid (e.g., unmarked or unsigned), this condition of approval will remain unsatisfied and may delay development of the project.
This action meets the Strategic Plan Priorities to manage and maximize Moreno Valley’s public infrastructure to ensure an excellent quality of life, develop and implement innovative, cost-effective infrastructure maintenance programs, public facilities management strategies, and capital improvement programming and project delivery.
ALTERNATIVES
1. Conduct the Public Hearing and upon its close, open, count, and verify the returned ballot and accept the resul ts. Staff recommends this alternative since it will satisfy the project’s condition of approval provided the property owner approves the ballot.
2. Open the Public Hearing and continue it to a future regularly scheduled City Council meeting. Staff does not recommend this alternative because it will delay announcement of the ballot results and may delay project development.
3. Do not conduct the Public Hearing. Staff does not recommend this alternative since it will delay the condition of approval from being sat isfied and may delay project development. The City will incur additional costs to restart the 45-day noticing period.
4. Do not conduct the Public Hearing at this time but reschedule it to a date specific regularly scheduled City Council meeting. Staff does not recommend this alternative because it may delay project development and will cause the City to incur additional costs to restart the 45 -day noticing period.
FISCAL IMPACT
Revenue received from the NPDES rate is restricted and can only be used withi n the stormwater management program. The revenue provides funding to maintain compliance with the unfunded requirements of the Permit. It also offsets stormwater management program expenses, which reduces the financial impact to the General Fund. The NPDES rate is only applied to the property tax bills of parcels where approval of the rate has been authorized through a successful mail ballot proceeding.
F.2
Packet Pg. 862
The FY 2022/23 maximum Residential Rate is $ 374.52 per parcel, and any division thereof. The maximum NPD ES rates are subject to an annual inflationary adjustment.
However, the annual adjustment cannot be applied unless the City Council annually authorizes such adjustment. The increase to the maximum rate cannot exceed the annual inflationary adjustment witho ut approval of the property owners subject to the charge. The NPDES rate applied to the property tax bill will be based on the development status of the property at the time the applied rates are calculated for the upcoming fiscal year.
NOTIFICATION
The ballot documents were mailed to the Property Owner at least 45-days in advance of the Public Hearing. The documents included a notice, NPDES ballot, map of the project area, instructions for marking and returning the ballot, and a postage -paid return envelope addressed to the City Clerk.
The Press-Enterprise published the legal notice for tonight’s Public Hearing on February 2, 2023 and February 9, 2023.

POLLUTANTD ISCHARGEELIMINATIONSYSTEM(NPDES)MAXIMUM RESIDENTIAL REGULATORY RATE FOR APNs 478-090-030 and 478-090-031
***** OFFICIAL BALLOT ENCLOSED *****
Introduction
In November of 1996, California voters passed Proposition 218 ("The Right to Vote on Taxes Act"). As a result, any new or proposed increase in a property-related charge requires approval by the property owner of record. In compliance with Proposition 218 legislation, the City of Moreno Valley Special Districts Division is conducting a mail ballot proceeding to provide the owner of the APN(s) listed above the opportunity to express support for or opposition to the approval of the NPDES Maximum Residential Regulatory Rate and services. Approval of the NPDES Maximum Residential Regulatory Rate through a mail ballot proceeding fulfills the Land Development Division's Condition of Approval to provide a funding source for the NPDES financial program.
Background
The Clean Water Act of 1987 established requirements for the discharge of Urban Runoff from Municipal Separate Storm Sewer Systems under the NPDES Program. The NPDES Program is administered by the Santa Ana Regional Water Quality Control Board through the issuance of a Permit. The City's current NPDES Permit mandates all new development projects comply with storm water management activities. The NPDES Program requires public agencies to obtain coverage under the Pennit to discharge urban storm water runoff from municipally owned drainage facilities, including streets, highways, storm drains, and flood control channels.
Services Provided
In compliance with the Federal Clean Water Act, the City of Moreno Valley shall provide the necessary services for the continuous operation, enhancement, and maintenance of the storm water discharge system, and perform inspections of the affected areas to ensure compliance with federally mandated NPDES Permit requirements.
How is the Amount of the Charge Determined?
Each fiscal year (FY), the City of Moreno Valley detennines the type of services necessary to comply with NPDES Permit requirements and levies the rate applicable for that service, not to exceed the rate previously approved by the property owner.

Report to City Council
ID#6103 Page 1
TO: Mayor and City Council
FROM: Jane Halstead, CMC, City Clerk
AGENDA DATE: February 21, 2023
TITLE: REVIEW OF OPTIONS REGARDING PROCEDURES FOR
SELECTING THE MAYOR PRO TEM
RECOMMENDED ACTION
1. Provide direction regarding whether the Mayor Pro Tem se lection process should be revised based on the one of the options described in this Staff Report.
SUMMARY/DISCUSSION
Mayor Cabrera requested that the City Clerk’s Office prepare a Staff Report that identifies or describes various ways that the Mayor Pro Tem be selected. Since there are no State laws that govern the selection of the Mayor Pro Tem for either General Law Cities and Charter Cities, cities throughout California have adopted a variety of procedures for selecting their Mayor Pro Tems. Some citi es incidentally refer to their Mayor Pro Tems as “Vice Mayors.”
CURRENT PROCESS OF SELECTION OF MAYOR PRO TEM
The current practice of selecting the Mayor Pro Tem is set forth in Section 4.1 (Selection of the Mayor Pro Tem) of the Rules of Procedure for Council Meetings and Related Functions and Activities (“Rules of Procedure”), attached hereto.
In summary, Section 4.1 provides that the Mayor Pro Tem is selected on an annual basis at the first Regular City Council Meeting in December, or as soon as re asonably feasible following the certification of the results of any election of candidates for City Council.
Nominations for the office Mayor Pro Tem may be made by any member of the City Council and need not be seconded in order to be effective. Appoint ment, however, requires approval by three or more affirmative votes. If none of the nominees receive at least three votes and there is no tie amongst any of the nominees, the process must be H.2
Packet Pg. 874
repeated that will allow Council Members to make new nominations or retain their nominations, and another vote must be called on each nominee. However, if there is a tie amongst the nominees, these nominees shall be the only ones the City Council may vote for during a subsequent vote for Mayor Pro Tem. If upon repeatin g the process, no nominees has received at least three votes, the City Council may either repeat the process until a Mayor Pro Tem is selected, or the City Council may continue the selection of the Mayor Pro Tem to the next regular meeting of the City Council.
Pursuant to Section 4.1, the Mayor Pro Tem serves for a one year period or until a successor is selected. Section 4.1 further provides that the City Clerk shall conduct the swearing in of the Mayor Pro Tem, and each Council Member shall have an op portunity for brief comments. It should be noted that if the swearing in of the Mayor Pro Tem is deemed a “ceremonial meeting,” no other business shall be conducted at the meeting.
The provision regarding written ballots is not valid as it is no longer p ermitted by the Brown Act.
OPTIONS FOR SELECTING A MAYOR PRO TEM
Again, since there are no State laws governing the selection of Mayor Pro Tem, cities have come up with a variety of ways for selecting their Mayor Pro Tem. By far the most common selectio n is a council election. In other words, instead of being directly elected by voters in the same way a mayor or councilman is, the Mayor Pro Tem are often chosen by their fellow council members. This is typically done on an annual basis. Of course, since m any cities (like Moreno Valley) did not adopt their Mayor Pro Tem selection process by ordinance, it is difficult to be certain on which cities or how many cities adhere to any certain type of selection process.
Notwithstanding the above, here are some o ptions for the City Council to consider:
1. Nomination By Council Members
Each Council Member nominates at an open City Council meeting, and the City Council votes on each nomination.
• If there is a tie, then a “runoff” is held and the one who receives the most votes, which must be at least three affirmative votes, is appointed as Mayor Pro Tem.
2. Nomination By Mayor
Mayor nominates a Council Member to serve as Mayor Pro Tem, subject to approval of a majority of the total membership of the City Council.
• If the Mayor’s nominee does not receive approval of a majority of the total membership of the City Council, then the Mayor nominates someone else, H.2
Packet Pg. 875
and another vote is taken until one of the Mayor’s nominees receives three affirmative votes.
3. Seniority
The Council Member who has been on the City Council for the longest continuous period of time is automatically appointed as Mayor Pro Tem.
4. Second Place Selection
The nominee who receives the second highest number of votes from the City Council serves as Mayor Pro Tem for the following year.
• If there is a tie, then a “runoff” is held and the one who receives the most votes, which must be at least three affirmative votes, is appointed as Mayor Pro Tem for the following year.
5. Equal Opportunity
The Council Mem ber who has not served as Mayor Pro Tem for the longest continuous period of time is automatically appointed as Mayor Pro Tem.
6. Percentage of Votes
The Council Member who has received the largest percentage of their District’s popular vote is automatically appointed as Mayor Pro Tem.
7. Random
The Council Member who draws the longest straw is automatically appointed as Mayor Pro Tem.
FISCAL IMPACT
There is no fiscal impact associated with the recommended action

TO: Mayor and City Council
FROM: Steve Quintanilla, Interim City Attorney
AGENDA DATE: February 21, 2023
TITLE: SENATE BILL NO. 1439 - CONFLICTS OF INTERESTS
RELATED TO CAMPAIGN CONTRIBUTIONS
RECOMMENDED ACTION
Recommendation:
1. That the City Council receive and file this report.
SUMMARY
Mayor Cabrera requested that staff prepare a summary of the new law regarding how campaign contributions can now create technical conflicts of interest for Council Members. This new law may require some Council Mem bers to recuse themselves under certain circumstances from participating in any decision -making activities related to the source (donor) of a campaign contribution to the Council Member. Incidentally, the rule contained in Senate Bill No. 1439 (“SB 1439”) is essentially the same rule that applied only to appointed officials, such as Planning Commissioners. SB 1439 basically extends the rule to elected officials, along with some other changes.
DISCUSSION
SB 1439, which took effect January 1, 2023, defines a new conflict of interest rule involving campaign contributions of more than $250 to Council Members. The new law also establishes new disclosure, recusal, and abstention requirements related to conflicts of interests based on campaign contributions.
Even though SB 1439 took effect on January 1, 2023, the Fair Political Practices Commission (“FPPC”) has determined that SB 1439 only applies prospectively after the law’s effective date. In other words, any campaign contributions received during 2022 are exempt under the conflict of interest analysis set forth in SB 1439.

In summary, SB 1439 provides that a campaign contribution of more than $250 to a Council Member, can now create a conflict of interest for a Council Member. Council Members who have willfully and knowingly accepted, solicited, or directed a contribution of more than $250 from a party, participant, or their agent, within 12 months before a proceeding involving the subject donor’s prospective contract, license, permit, or use entitlement must disclose the contribution on the record and recuse themselves before the proceeding, unless the violation was properly cured, as described below.
If a Council Member received a “disqualifying” $250 -plus donation 12 months prior to a final decision in a proceeding affecting the donor, but returned the donation within 30 days from the time he or she knew or should have known about the contribution, the Council Member would not be disqualified from decision making activities affecting the subject donor – PROVIDED the Council Member also did not know about the proceeding involving the subject donor’s prospective license, permit or other use entitlement. This means that once a Council Member sees the donor’s item on an agenda, the Council Member cannot reso rt to curing the situation as set forth above; in such a case, the Council Member would be disqualified.
SB 1439 further provides that Council Members shall not accept, solicit, or direct a contribution of more than $250 from any party, participant, or th eir agent, if the Council Member knows or has reason to know that the donor has a financial interest in a decision while the proceeding is pending and for 12 months after the final decision is rendered. However, if the prohibited contribution was unwillin gly or unknowingly received during the 12 months after the final decision, the subject Council Member may cure the “violation” by returning the amount that exceeds $250 within 14 days of accepting, soliciting, or directing the contribution, whichever comes latest.
It is critical to note that SB 1439 applies not only to actual donors (which include parties and their agents), but also to “participants” which could include “non -parties” who actively support or oppose a particular decision and who have a fina ncial interest in the decision. One example may include a close neighbor to a property that is the subject of a land use decision, which under SB 1439 would be considered a “participant” even if the neighbor’s property is not the subject of the decision. I t could also include an owner of a business who opposes the approval of a prospective neighboring business over concerns regarding increased competition. In either case, a Council Member would be precluded from accepting or soliciting a contribution of mo re than $250 from the neighboring resident or neighboring business owner.
In conclusion, SB 1439 now means that Council Members must pay careful attention to their donors of more than $250 and their potential involvement in proceedings affecting such don ors, their agents and other participants such as the neighboring resident or neighboring business owner. In light of the prohibitions of SB 1439, Council Members may want to consider “self -limiting” contributions they accept from contributors who typically have business before the City to $250 or less, so that they will not be in violation of SB 1439.
CAMPAIGN CONTRIBUTION LIMITATIONS

Packet Pg. 881
Since the City does not have any local restrictions on campaign contributions, it must comply with the state law’s limitat ions on campaign contributions, which currently provides that a candidate shall not accept from a person, a contribution totaling more than $5,500 per election, which is the current amount for 2023.
This amount is subject to adjustment by the Fair Politic al Practices Commission pursuant to Government Code Section 83124.
