M.5 Western Riverside Council of Governments Executive Committee (WRCOG)
Councilmember Baca-Santa Cruz reported the following:

At the May 4, 2026, WRCOG Executive Committee Meeting, reports for Fiscal Department activities, committees, agency activities, and various (external) committees were received and filed.

Additionally, the Executive Committee discussed the following key items:

Approval of TUMF Reimbursement Agreement

22  One TUMF Reimbursement Agreement was approved with the County of Riverside for the Planning Phase of the Nuevo Road Widening Project in an amount not to exceed $500k.
 This Project is a study of widening Nuevo Road from two to four lanes.

Approval of a Fiscal Year 2025/2026 Supporting Foundation Budget Amendment and Adoption Fiscal Year 2026/2027 Supporting Foundation Budget
 The FY 2025/2026 budget amendment anticipates $440,015 in revenues (sponsorships, ticket sales, and in-kind sponsorships) against $426,960 in expenditures (event support, venue costs, graphic designs, etc.).
 The FY 2026/2027 budget anticipates $448,050 in revenues against $434,995 in expenditures.
 Changes are a result of increases in in-kind sponsorships and the addition of the Women's Day Forum event into the Supporting Foundation’s budget.

Energy Resilience Plan 2.0 Final Deliverables
 The ERP 2.0 has been completed and includes 8 microgrid studies, 8 community resilience center (CRC) feasibility studies, a microgrid regulatory memorandum, and an implementation plan. This project was completed with the Adaptation Planning Grant received in 2023 and builds upon the initial Energy Resilience Plan.  The feasibility studies have been designed with future implementation in mind and aim to align potential microgrid and CRC projects with future funding opportunities. Each study includes a summary of the proposed microgrid system and project
economics, community profile, gaps and recommendations for the CRC, and next steps.
 The Implementation Plan can be used as a roadmap to
conceptualize microgrid or CRC projects and identify the necessary steps to move towards construction. WRCOG and I-REN can assist agencies with exploring potential projects and providing assistance. • Federal Clean Cities funding has been restored after a year of uncertainty, with a new five-year agreement providing more flexible, task-based support for regional projects and coordination.

23 Western Riverside County Clean Cities Coalition Activities Update  WRCOG is making strong progress on its $1.35M Green Zones Initiative, with most zero-emission vehicles and supporting charging infrastructure now deployed across partner agencies.
 The Coalition is investing in workforce readiness, recently training 12 technicians in EV safety and maintenance while developing a regional toolkit to support future deployments.
 New mobility and collaboration efforts are expanding access and impact, including a $1.8M zero-emission car-share program launching this summer and continued growth of the Inland ZEV Network.

Regional Food Rescue Program Activities Update
 The Regional Food Rescue Program was launched in response to the edible food requirement under SB 1383. WRCOG issued an RFP, a consultant was selected, and the consultant began work and collecting data by September 2023. Tasks included identifying commercial edible food generators and food rescue organizations, setting up workshops, site visits, launching the Careit food rescue application, and reporting.
 Since the inception of the program, at least 85% of commercial edible food generators and 95% of food rescue organizations have become compliant in the three participating cities, including Jurupa Valley, Murrieta, and Perris. Over 18M pounds of edible food have been recovered during the program.
 The Program sunsets on June 30, 2026, as costs to operate the program are not feasible due to a lack of funding from CalRecycle, and no additional funds from the Organic Waste Reduction (OWR) program will be made available.
 The Executive Committee directed WRCOG staff to provide additional cost information on the Careit platform, so cities and the County may consider using it to continue the food rescue application. Staff will provide that information.
