Plan of Services for City of Norco Bluff Street Annexation (Annexation #27) 10 records of street maintenance being conducted by the County but the City has conducted asphalt maintenance for the full width of the roadway as needed.
B. New Service Provider
The City of Norco Public Works Department is responsible for the design, construction, inspection and maintenance of all City streets. The City has developed a city-wide roadway condition index to help develop the pavement treatment method and timeline of when improvements should be conducted. The City of Norco does have a plan to conduct a grind and overlay of the full length of Bluff Street once the new water mainline has been constructed. The City has multiple sources of funding for street improvements, including Measure A, SB1, Measure R, and development impact funds.
XI. Lighting/Landscaping/Street Sweeping
A. Current
The County of Riverside does not currently provide lighting or landscaping services as there are no street lights or landscaping to maintain in the annexation area. The County also does not provide street sweeping services to the annexation area.
B. New Service Provider
Bluff Street and the annexation area does not currently have any street lighting that requires maintenance. The City already contracts with street sweeping services to provide sweeping for all of Bluff Street including the annexation area. The City does not directly charge property owners to provide street sweeping and utilizes Gas Tax funding to cover cost of the service. There are landscaped parkways in the annexation area but the City of Norco requires property owners to maintain landscaped parkways.
XII. Animal Shelter/ Control
The Riverside County Department of Animal Services is the current service provider. The Department provides a full range of services, including sheltering, licensing, clinic services, and enforcement. The nearest shelter is the Western Riverside County/City Animal Shelter in Jurupa Valley.
Upon annexation, licensing, sheltering, and enforcement would be transferred to the City of Norco. The City of Norco Animal Services (NAS) Division will be the new service provider. NAS is part of the Community Services Department which provides animal related services to over 26,000 constituents or over 7,000 households. NAS consists of two parts: field services and animal sheltering.
Field services: NAS is responsible for protecting both the public and animals, educating the public on animal welfare that provides optimum care and protected treatment of animals and provide a facility to accommodate the two and four legged constituents in a unique animal-keeping and equestrian city. NAS Division is dedicated to fostering the development of animals in a safe and secure environment. By abiding by State, Federal, and Local laws pertaining to animal keeping, the Division ensures the health and wellness of animals throughout the community. NAS investigates and prosecutes animal abuse and/or neglect cases, handling approximately 2,000 calls per year. NAS has four Animal
Plan of Services for City of Norco Bluff Street Annexation (Annexation #27) 11 Control Officers which are members of the Norco Animal Rescue Team (NART). NAS & NART respond in collaboration to requested large animal emergency calls from Norco constituents and provides assistance to Western Riverside County at the request of Riverside County Department of Animal Services.
Animal sheltering: NAS cares for nearly 1,000 impounded animals each year. The shelter takes pride in its high success rate to process the adoption of dogs, cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, Testudinidae, and livestock. NAS attends pet expos/functions, National Night-Out, school meet & greets, rodeos and various pop-up events within Southern California. NAS staff collaborate with fosters, rescues, and other agencies to help with their animals to be placed in a loving home and/or to be rehabilitated. The NAS staff care for rehabilitation, subsequent release of injured wild animals and providing emergency rescue assistance are all done while strengthening the community’s image.
NAS Employees include one full-time Animal Control Superintendent, one full-time Animal Control Supervisor, two full-time Animal Control Officers, three part-time Administrative Aides, two part-time Animal Care Technicians, four part-time Kennel Aides and one Kennel Assistant. No additional staff or resources are necessary for the proposed annexation.
The Norco Animal Shelter also provides the clinic services of euthanasia to Norco residents, spay/neuter, vaccines, and microchipping for animals adopted out the Norco Animal Shelter.
The City of Norco will honor multi-year licenses issued by Riverside County. The owner must show proof of transaction.

Plan of Services for City of Norco Bluff Street Annexation (Annexation #27) 12 059002 - WESTERN MUNICIPAL WATER
Property taxes average approximately 1.12-1.14% of taxable value. Any bonded indebtedness associated with Riverside County that would be removed as a result of the annexation would not be reflected in changes in property tax rates.
B. New Service Provider
Following annexation, general taxes will continue to be levied on properties in the annexation area. Norco does not have a utility users tax. The above tax rate areas would apply to the annexed properties, except the following would be removed:
• County Structure Fire Protection
• County Waste Resource Management District
• Riverside County Regional Park and Open Space District The City of Norco would be added as a tax rate area. Property taxes average approximately 1.12-1.14% of taxable value in Norco; the only additional assessment that is not applicable to unincorporated properties is the CSA 152 special assessment averaging about $10, which is not charged to the unincorporated properties despite being within the CSA 152 tax rate area.
Debt associated with Riverside County (General Fund Obligations, Pension Obligations), Western Municipal Water District, and Corona-Norco Unified School District would be passed on to the annexation area but would not result in a change of tax rate. Debt associated with any applicable City of Norco Community Facilities Districts would extend to the annexation area, but not result in a change in tax rate.
Bonded indebtedness payable with additional property tax above 1% associated with the Metropolitan Water District, Riverside City Community College District, and the Corona-Norco Unified School District currently apply to the annexation area and would continue to apply after annexation at the same rate.

Prepared By: Amanda Hamilton, Facilities and Maintenance Director
Department: Facilities and Maintenance
SUBJECT:
Discussion of Fireworks Prohibition per Municipal Code 9.20.020 RECOMMENDATION:
Discuss Fireworks Prohibition per Municipal Code 9.20.020.
SUMMARY:
On July 16, 2025, Mayor Newton requested to have the fireworks prohibition municipal code brought forward for discussion. Municipal Code Section 9.20.020 prohibits the sale, possession, use, and discharge of fireworks within City limits except for professionally permitted displays. Permitted uses are limited to licensed aerial and pyrotechnic shows regulated by the Riverside County Fire Marshall's Office. This item provides the Council an opportunity to discuss and review the current municipal code.
BACKGROUND:
Municipal Code Section 9.20.020, originally enacted in 1965 and most recently amended by Ordinance No. 1018 in 2017, establishes a comprehensive, citywide prohibition on the use, possession, sale, discharge, and storage of fireworks— regardless of classification as “dangerous” or “safe and sane.” This prohibition reflects the City’s intent to protect public health and safety, preserve property, and minimize disturbances to animals and residents.
The ordinance provides narrow exceptions for professionally conducted fireworks or pyrotechnic displays that are properly permitted. These limited exceptions are strictly regulated and are contingent upon compliance with all applicable state and county fire safety requirements.
Key Provisions of Section 9.20.020 – Fireworks Prohibited:
Subsection (A): Prohibits all fireworks activity within the City, including both “dangerous” and “safe and sane” fireworks, unless specifically authorized under a valid permit. Violations of state fireworks laws, as defined by the California Health and Safety Code, also constitute violations of this municipal provision.
Subsection (B): Imposes strict liability on property owners and individuals in control of property for any fireworks-related activity occurring on their premises, irrespective of knowledge or intent.
Subsection (C): Holds legal guardians strictly liable for any violations committed by an unsupervised minor under the age of 18.
Subsection (D): Allows for fireworks use only under a valid fireworks display permit issued by the Riverside County Fire Marshal’s Office, in conjunction with all required state licenses and compliance with relevant regulatory frameworks.
Permitting and Display Requirements: Permitted fireworks displays are limited to licensed, professional pyrotechnic events. The Riverside County Fire Department reviews all pyrotechnic permit applications to ensure compliance with applicable codes, including safety, licensing, and inspection requirements. Upon approval, a list of permit conditions is issued, and Fire Department staff conduct site inspections and remain on standby for the duration of the event.
Types of Permitted Fireworks Displays
Aerial Fireworks:
Used in large outdoor venues; require significant safety perimeters and have expansive fallout zones. These devices project into the air and produce largescale visual and auditory effects. Proximate Fireworks:
Designed for indoor or confined outdoor venues; have minimal fallout and are intended for controlled, close-range effects to enhance live performances or events.
Permit History (Since 2020): Only three fireworks permits have been issued within City limits since 2020.
Permit No. 2022-467 – 2001 Third Street - Fee: $672.00 Permit No. 2025-448 – 5555 Hamner Avenue - Fee: $2,358.76 (Includes inspection costs for both stage and aerial elements)
Permit No. 2025-512 – 5555 Hamner Avenue - Fee: $558.76 (Includes only the processing and permit fees)
Please note that the permits for 5555 Hamner Avenue were issued separately due to insurance and licensing considerations. Consequently, there are two permits instead of one for the same event.
Enforcement and Penalties:
Violations of Municipal Code Section 9.20.020 are subject to citation by authorized enforcement personnel. These administrative citations are issued independently of other general penalties established under the Municipal Code. Fine amounts are as follows:
$2,500 for unauthorized use of “safe and sane” fireworks $5,000 for unauthorized use of “dangerous” fireworks
Policy Considerations:
The current ordinance provides a robust framework to deter unauthorized fireworks activity and ensure public safety through limited, permitted professional displays.
However, ongoing concerns from the community regarding noise, safety risks, and the City’s rural character have prompted review of existing regulations.
Staff seeks Council direction on whether to amend Section 9.20.020 to further restrict or eliminate the allowance of permitted displays, specifically by:
Prohibiting all aerial pyrotechnics; or
Limiting permissible use to proximate (non-aerial) effects for controlled entertainment purposes only.
Any such amendments would continue to require compliance with the Riverside County Fire Marshal’s Office permitting process, including safety inspections, licensing, and event-day oversight.
FISCAL IMPACT:
There is no immediate fiscal impact associated with this discussion item. However, any future amendments that further restrict or prohibit permitted fireworks displays may result in a decrease in revenue generated from permit fees.
RELATIONSHIP TO STRATEGIC PLAN:
This item is closely related to Strategic Direction 1. Public Health, Safety and Wellness:
Enhance quality of life by promoting public health, safety and wellness initiatives for all community members.

To: Honorable Mayor and City Council Members
From: Sam Nelson, Interim Public Works Director
Prepared By: Sam Nelson, Public Works Director
Department: Public Works
SUBJECT:
Discussion and Consideration of a Horse Trail Dedication Program RECOMMENDATION:
Discuss and provide feedback on the consideration of a Horse Trail Dedication Program.
SUMMARY:
At the regular meeting of July 16, 2025, the City Council requested that staff explore the feasibility of establishing a Horse Trail Dedication Program. Such a program could formalize recognition for contributions to Norco’s equestrian amenities and be modeled after the City’s existing dedication and recognition programs. Staff seeks direction from the City Council on whether to proceed with developing a draft program and, if so, whether to establish a subcommittee to support this effort.
BACKGROUND:
In the early 2000s, the City implemented an Adopt-a-Trail Program funded by the Redevelopment Agency (RDA), which allowed residents, businesses, and community organizations to maintain segments of horse trails and streets. Participants were recognized with signage placed by the Public Works Department. The program ended following the dissolution of the RDA in 2008, which eliminated its funding source.
Currently, the City does not have a formal program for naming or dedicating horse trails.
However, other recognition programs are in place that may serve as reference models.
Existing Dedication Programs
The City operates two structured recognition programs:
Kathy Azevedo Spirit of Norco Recognition Program – This program recognizes individuals who have demonstrated exemplary civic leadership and community
involvement. Honorees are acknowledged with commemorative bricks at the Ingalls Event Center.
Public Facilities Dedication Program – This program allows for public assets, such as rooms, parks, or facilities, to be named in honor of individuals or groups who have made meaningful contributions to the community. The program includes defined criteria, a nomination and petition process, review by the Parks and Recreation Commission, and final approval by the City Council.
These programs may provide a framework for any potential horse trail dedication process and are attached to this report.
Proposed Horse Trail Dedication Program
A Horse Trail Dedication Program would provide a formal method for recognizing significant contributions to Norco’s equestrian trail system. If Council wishes to proceed, the following elements may be considered for inclusion in the program:
Eligibility Criteria: Defining the types of contributions (e.g., development, maintenance, promotion) and determining whether proximity to the trail or Norco residency is required.
Nomination Process: Submissions could be accepted annually during a defined period and reviewed by the Streets and Trails Commission, with initial evaluations supported by a subcommittee formed for this purpose. Program Limitations: To ensure consistency and manageability, the number of dedications could be limited.
Recognition Elements: The policy would address signage standards, placement, and consistency across dedicated locations. Nominators could be responsible for costs associated with signage and installation.
Administrative Oversight: Public Works Department staff would track the placement and status of each dedication, manage records, and coordinate with other departments as needed.
The City’s existing recognition programs currently provide avenues for acknowledging community contributions. Council may consider whether those programs sufficiently meet current needs or whether a separate policy specific to horse trails is warranted. If Council elects to move forward, staff recommends the formation of a subcommittee to assist in program development.
FISCAL IMPACT:
While direct costs related to signage and installation could be the responsibility of the nominator, implementing and managing a new program would require additional staff time for intake, review coordination, signage logistics, and recordkeeping. These activities would have an ongoing administrative impact.
RELATIONSHIP TO STRATEGIC PLAN:
This item is consistent with Strategic Plan Direction No. 4, "Communication and Stakeholder Experience."
