RECOMMENDATION:
That the City Council approve and authorize the City Manager to execute an Agreement (on file with the Records Management Department) with Kimley-Horn and Associates, Inc., of Riverside, California, to prepare an Environmental Impact Report (EIR) for the Euclid Mixed Use Specific Plan, in the amount of $396,805, plus a 5% contingency of $19,840, for a total authorized expenditure of $416,645; and authorize the City Manager to approve any future budget adjustments necessary to complete the EIR.
THE FOLLOWING COUNCIL GOALS ARE BEING ACHIEVED:
Invest in the Growth and Evolution of the City's Economy Operate in a Businesslike Manner
Ensure the Development of a Well Planned, Balanced, and Self-Sustaining Community in Ontario Ranch
FISCAL IMPACT:
The EIR contract is a “pass-thru” to be paid by the project Applicant. A budget adjustment for the $416,645 in development revenue and corresponding expenditure appropriations will be included in the next quarterly budget update report to the City Council.
BACKGROUND & ANALYSIS:
On January 27, 2010, the City adopted The Ontario Plan (TOP) and certified the accompanying EIR. Subsequently, on August 16, 2022, the City Council adopted an update to TOP and certification of a Supplemental Environmental Impact Report (SEIR). TOP Policy Plan serves as the City’s General Plan. The project site is zoned SP/AG (Specific Plan/Agriculture Preserve). The zoning of “SP” requires the project area to be developed with a specific plan to carry out the goals and policies of TOP.
RCCD INC., (Applicant), is proposing the Euclid Mixed Use Specific Plan to govern the development of approximately 81.4 acres of land for residential, commercial and business park development. In addition, the Specific Plan will establish the land use designations, development standards, design guidelines and infrastructure improvements that will govern the development the Specific Plan 23 area. The Specific Plan site is generally located east of Euclid Avenue, south of Schaefer Avenue, west of Sultana Avenue and north of Edison Avenue.
In order to thoroughly address the environmental impacts associated with the proposed specific plan, a project Environmental Impact Report (EIR) is required. The City of Ontario Planning Department is responsible for selecting the consultant to prepare the EIR. A Request for Proposal (RFP) to prepare an EIR for the Euclid Mixed Use Specific Plan was posted on City’s bidding site (PlanetBids). The City received 5 proposals from qualified firms. The selection committee unanimously recommended Kimley-Horn and Associates, Inc., to prepare the EIR for the Euclid Mixed Use Specific Plan, based on their experience, qualifications and proposal that best addressed and fully responded to the work scope.
The total estimated cost for completing the EIR is $416,645, which includes a five percent (5%) contingency required by the City, to be paid by the Applicant. The Applicant has agreed to the total amount and Staff will oversee the project from start to finish. 24 Department: Library

NAME THE CHILDREN'S ROOM AT OVITT FAMILY COMMUNITY LIBRARY TO THE
BEVERLY CLEARY YOUNG READERS ROOM
CITY OF ONTARIO
Agenda Report
November 15, 2022
SECTION:
CONSENT CALENDAR
RECOMMENDATION:
That the City Council approve naming the children's room at Ovitt Family Community Library, the Beverly Cleary Young Readers Room.
THE FOLLOWING COUNCIL GOALS ARE BEING ACHIEVED:
Encourage, Provide or Support Enhanced Recreational, Educational, Cultural and Healthy City Programs, Policies and Activities
FISCAL IMPACT:
There is no direct fiscal impact associated with this action.
BACKGROUND & ANALYSIS:
In July 2022, a local resident submitted a Dedication/Naming Request Form to the Library Director. In the Request Form, the resident requested that the children's room at the Ovitt Family Community Library be named in honor of celebrated children's author and one- time Ontario resident, Beverly Cleary. The request also included three letters of support, articles and documents supporting the request, and a petition signed by 103 persons in support of the request. In accordance with the adopted policy which details the process for "Naming of Ontario City Library Facilities, Rooms or Collections", the Library Director presented information about the request to the Library Board of Trustees on September 13, 2022. A member of the public also spoke in favor of the recommendation. The Library Board of Trustees voted unanimously to recommend to City Council that the children's room at Ovitt Family Community Library be formally named the Beverly Cleary Young Readers Room.
Background on Beverly Cleary
Beverly Atlee Bunn was born on April 12, 1916 in McMinnville, Oregon. Beverly came of age during the Great Depression and her family did not have money to send her away to college. At that time, Beverly's mother's cousin, Verna Clapp, lived in Ontario and was employed as the librarian for Chaffey Memorial Library at Chaffey High School and Chaffey Jr. College. Beverly's mother was able to arrange for Beverly to stay with Verna, her husband, and children so that Beverly could attend Chaffey Jr. College. Beverly had aspirations of becoming a children's librarian. Beverly describes her first glimpse of Ontario in her biography,
My Own Two Feet
, and was captivated: "We drove up
25 Euclid Avenue, Ontario's main street, which appeared to end in mountains. This was the California I imagined." Beverly stayed with her relatives during her first year at Chaffey, but due to the Great Depression, the family could not host her stay for her second year. Beverly was not discouraged, and after the summer break she came back to Ontario and roomed with a classmate for her sophomore year.
Verna recommended Beverly to Alberta Schaeffer, the head librarian at the Ontario Public Library, who was searching for a substitute librarian. Ms. Schaeffer offered Beverly a job, and Beverly worked at Ontario Public Library for a year as a substitute librarian. After graduating from Chaffey in 1936, Beverly went on to obtain her bachelor's degree from the University of California, Berkeley, where she met and married her husband, Clarence Cleary. In 1939 she graduated from the School of Librarianship at the University of Washington with a second bachelor's degree in library science and soon after accepted a position as a children's librarian. After a few years of making recommendations and performing live storytelling in her role as librarian, she decided to start writing children's books about characters in which young readers could relate.
Beverly Cleary's first book was
Henry Huggins
in 1950. She published over forty books in her
lifetime. The last book she wrote was
Ramona's World
in 1999, when she was 83. She died in
Carmel, California in 2021 at the age of 104. Beverly Cleary is one of the most successful children's authors in history. Nearly one hundred million copies of her books have been sold. She won the 1981 National Book Award for
Ramona and Her Mother
and the 1984 Newbery Medal for
Dear Mr.
Henshaw
. For her lifetime contributions to American literature, she received the National Medal of Arts, recognition as a Library of Congress Living Legend, and the Laura Ingalls Wilder Medal from the Association for Library Service to Children. Beverly Cleary was a resident of Ontario; she is a significant author in the field of children's literature; and she is considered a national hero by many children's librarians and readers of children's literature, including the millions of children who have read her books over the years.
It is the Library Board of Trustees and Staff's recommendation to name the children's room at Ovitt Family Community Library to the Beverly Cleary Young Readers Room.
Subsequent to the approval of this proposed Agenda item, Library Staff will research appropriate signage for the room. Staff will plan a ribbon cutting gathering during National Library Week, April 23-29, 2023, which will nearly coincide with Beverly Cleary's birthday on April 12. Library Staff will also plan a birthday party for Beverly Cleary on that date as a precursor to the larger gathering during National Library Week.

RECOMMENDATION:
That the City Council reject all bids received for Bid No. 1558, D&C 20-019 for the Ontario Police Department Locker Room and Gym Expansion project and authorize the City Manager or his designee to solicit new bids for this project.
THE FOLLOWING COUNCIL GOALS ARE BEING ACHIEVED:
Invest in the City's Infrastructure (Water, Streets, Sewers, Parks, Storm Drains and Public Facilities)
FISCAL IMPACT:
There is not a direct fiscal impact associated with this action.
BACKGROUND & ANALYSIS:
The Fiscal Year 2022-23 Adopted Budget includes appropriations in the Capital Projects Fund for the Ontario Police Department Locker Room and Gym Expansion project. This project will address accessibility deficiencies identified by an accessibility compliance report.
On July 22, 2022, Staff solicited bids for the Ontario Police Department Locker and Gym Expansion Project. On September 25, 2022, Staff received fifteen construction bids ranging from $1,318,000 to $1,957,000. Subsequent to that, the City identified that additional asphalt work for the entrance of the public parking and Staff entrance is needed, however, it was not defined in the original scope of work. Staff determined that it is in the best interest of the City to reject all bids in accordance with Ontario Municipal Code Section 2-6.20(a), re-define the scope of work and rebid the project. The new bid will include a base bid and Additive Item 1: Asphalt Construction of approximately 13,000 square feet.

FISCAL YEAR 2022-23 FIRST QUARTER BUDGET UPDATE REPORT
CITY OF ONTARIO
Agenda Report
November 15, 2022
SECTION:
CONSENT CALENDAR
RECOMMENDATION:
That the City Council approve the budget adjustments and recommendations as presented in the Fiscal Year 2022-23 First Quarter Budget Update Report.
THE FOLLOWING COUNCIL GOALS ARE BEING ACHIEVED:
Operate in a Businesslike Manner
FISCAL IMPACT:
The recommended actions will affect several fund budgets as outlined in the Fiscal Year 2022-23 First Quarter Budget Update Report.
BACKGROUND & ANALYSIS:
The First Quarter Budget Update Report for Fiscal Year 2022-23 reflects the Financial Services Agency's continued efforts to provide timely, accurate, and understandable financial information to assist the City Council with decision making and achievement of core goals. All Funds have been reviewed in preparing this report. The emphasis of this report is on the General Fund, which funds the majority of government services including public safety, recreation, library, museum, parks, building and planning.
The primary purposes of this report are to:
Discuss Fiscal Year 2021-22 Year-End Results and Fiscal Year 2022-23 First Quarter Budget Update and provide a reconciliation of budgeted-to-actual financial data; Address annual carryforward appropriations across all funds; Recognize budgetary carryforward amounts for prior year's approved Capital Improvement Projects and Grant appropriations, which are ongoing;
Revise the City's budget to reflect the City Council's actions taken since the beginning of the current fiscal year;
Recommend personnel and organizational changes to enhance program operations and efficiencies;
Recommend budget adjustments that are consistent with City Council goals and objectives; and
Comment on significant budget and economic trends which may impact fiscal year's budget development.
34 Fiscal Year 2021-22 General Fund Year-End Results (unaudited) The General Fund activity for FY 2021-22 resulted in a positive year-end balance of approximately $25.8 million. This result is primarily due to higher sales tax revenue than projected as a result of increased consumer goods due to inflation and stimulus payments, as well as rising fuel costs, increased charges for services revenues (development related revenue) as Ontario Ranch and commercial/industrial development in the City continues to move forward at a strong pace, and personnel savings due to vacancies citywide. In addition, the City was able to realize approximately $14.1 million of American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) funding for the negative economic impacts the City incurred during the COVID-19 pandemic period.
Fiscal Year 2022-23 First Quarter Budget Update Recommendations First Quarter Budget Update recommendations are routine in nature and comprised predominately by: City Council actions taken since the beginning of the fiscal year, encumbrance carryforward items to rollover purchase order that have not yet been expended, and Capital Improvement Program (CIP) and Grant carryforward appropriations on projects and grants that have not been completed or fully expended. In addition, First Quarter includes proposed new expenditure budget requests, as well as revised revenue estimates for FY 2022-23. For the General Fund, the net result of these actions will bring the General Fund estimated available and unencumbered ending fund balance to $56.91 million or 18% of total appropriations. This amount achieves the goal set by City Council as a reserve for specific and defined emergency events (such as an earthquake or pandemic) and to address immediate needs in resources without impacting City services. This goal was temporarily decreased to 15% and then 16% during the COVID pandemic but has since been brought back up to the previous set goal of 18%, effective July 1, 2021, with the goal of increasing the reserves up to 25% in future fiscal years.
General Fund Highlights
$14.0 million transfer-out from General Fund to fund Economic Development Activities $12.0 million transfer-out to General Fund Capital Projects fund to finance various City infrastructure projects including: new park attractions and improvements; support for homelessness and mental health illnesses; and public safety enhancements (funding to be provided from the anticipated additional sales tax revenue) $9.2 million carryforward encumbrances from FY 2021-22
$1.2 million recommended personnel changes
$700 thousand additional appropriations for Property Services, and Architectural and Design Services agreements (City Council approved 4/19/2022)
$600 thousand additional appropriations for concrete repairs Maintenance Services Agreement for the replacement of A-curbs citywide (City Council approved 5/3/2022) $500 thousand additional funding for the Convention Center ballroom renovation (total funding to date $1M)
Other Funds (non-General Fund) Highlights
$307.3 million carryforward encumbrances from FY 2021-22 $9.0 million contribution from Affordability In-Lieu Fund to the Ontario Housing Authority for Vista Verde Phase II, a low/moderate income multi-family housing development (funded from use of fund balance)
$6.7 million additional appropriations for San Antonio Transmission Water Main Phase 2 35 capital improvement project, funding provided from a developer reimbursement agreement (City Council approved 9/20/2022)
$6.3 million purchase of a new police helicopter, funded through the Public Safety Equipment Reserve and the anticipated sale of the replacement helicopter of approximately $2.2M (City Council approved 9/6/2022)
$5.3 million additional appropriations for the Ontario Ranch Phase 2 Water Main Improvement project
$2.0 million additional appropriations for Fire Station No. 11 in the Ontario Ranch for equipment and construction related costs (offset by Development Impact Fee revenues)
Interim budget updates also present recommendations for personnel and organizational changes necessary to enhance program operations and efficiencies. Current recommendations for this First Quarter report include reclassification changes, adds/deletes, and other modifications to the authorized full-time positions resulting in a net increase of 14 positions citywide (12.6 positions are funded from General Fund and 1.4 positions are funded from Other Funds). In addition, a recommended City agency name change to incorporate the agency's sphere of responsibilities for the Human Resources Agency to Human Resources/Risk Management Agency. More detail is presented in the attached Exhibit A under Recommended Personnel Changes section, pages 16 through 18, of the FY 2022-23 First Quarter Budget Update Report.
Gainshare Program
The Gainshare Program was developed by the City in 2020 to recognize employees' collective progress towards City goals and objectives. The program is intended to reward high-performance and cost-efficient operations in accomplishing Agency Strategic Objectives (ASOs) and achievements, as measured by Key Performance Indicators (KPIs). ASOs are outcome-driven objectives that the City uses to communicate and commit to our Agencies' missions, visions, and values. KPIs are intended to be output-driven and are measurable values that demonstrate how effectively the City is achieving key objectives. Together, ASOs and KPIs are used as guides to keep score of our successes and challenges.
Through dedication, hard work and overall contributions, Ontario employees achieved program requirements for FY 2021-22 and have unlocked a Gainshare incentive of 1% of base compensation for all employees. Included in the First Quarter Budget Update Report is appropriations of $1,048,097 for this Gainshare, with the General fund's share at $803,499 and Other Funds' share at $244,598.
Economic Outlook
The following economic indicators are the most recent measures of economic activity.
Gross Domestic Product (GDP)
: The broadest measure of economic output, increased at an annual rate of 2.6% in the third quarter of 2022 (advance estimate), following a decrease of
0.6% in the second quarter. The increase in real GDP in the third quarter was led by increases in exports and consumer spending, of which were partly offset by a decrease in housing spending.
36 Unemployment Rate
: The national unemployment rate for October 2022 was at 3.7% as compared to 4.6% in October 2021 and 6.9% in October of 2020. California’s unemployment rate for September 2022 was at 3.9% as compared to 6.4% in September 2021 and 10.6% in September 2020. Locally, unemployment rate in September 2022 was at 3.8% as compared to 6.6% in September 2021 and 10.6% in September 2020. Employment continues to grow as the economy recovers from the COVID-19 pandemic.
Consumer Confidence Index (CCI)
: For October 2022, the CCI was at 102.5. This is a decrease from the previous number of 107.8 for September 2022 and 103.2 for August 2022. The CCI has retreated in October, after advancing in August and September due to concerns about inflation, with both food and gas prices serving as the main drivers.
Purchasing Manager’s Index (PMI)
: For October 2022, PMI was at 50.2% as compared to
60.8% in October 2021 and 58.8% in October of 2020. The current declining PMI rate is a reflection of heightened concerns regarding rising inflation, higher commodity prices, and continued supply chain issues.
Housing market
: In California, 305,680 existing home sales have been recorded year to date.
This represents a decrease of 30.2% year-to-year and a 16.5% decrease year to date. In the Inland Empire, the median sale price of existing single-family homes decreased by 0.6% from August 2022 to September 2022 and recorded an 8.1% increase year-to-year from September 2021 to September 2022. Supply constraints and increases in interest rates will continue to bring California home sales down in 2023.
Conclusion
As the City recovers from the last two years of economic disruption from the COVID pandemic, other challenges still exist: the continued war in Ukraine; rising consumer goods prices, fuel costs, and interest rates; the impending recession due to accelerated inflation levels not seen since the early 1980's; and concerns regarding the current "tripledemic" of flu, RSV, and COVID. Even with the anticipated additional resources, the City will need to continue to practice fiscal discipline and establish proactive measures to safely navigate the current and upcoming fiscal challenges, as well as deliver an unparalleled level of service and commitment to our community.
The Adopted Operating Budget for Fiscal Year 2022-23, as modified through this First Quarter Budget Update, reflects the City Council's continued commitment to support high quality public safety and municipal services, provides for the maintenance and expansion needs of the City's infrastructure and facilities, profiles an aggressive economic development strategy, and assures the investment and reinvestment of City resources into the community - all in the name of affording Ontario residents and businesses an exceptional quality of life. With the City Council's leadership and their prudent fiscal policies, the City's long-term financial health will further solidify its standing as the economic leader in the Inland Empire, and a formidable player in California and the nation. 37 orrt nng

RECOMMENDATION:
That the City Council approve the Development Impact Fee Credit Agreement (File No. PDIF21-006) between the City of Ontario and DPIF3 CA 36 Ontario Ranch LLC., for facility construction associated with a Development Plan (File No. PDEV22-001), located at the northwest corner of Hamner Avenue and Ontario Ranch Road, within Planning Area 7A (Light Industrial) land use district of the Rich Haven Specific Plan, and authorize the City Manager to execute the Agreement.
THE FOLLOWING COUNCIL GOALS ARE BEING ACHIEVED:
Invest in the Growth and Evolution of the City's Economy Operate in a Businesslike Manner
Invest in the City's Infrastructure (Water, Streets, Sewers, Parks, Storm Drains and Public Facilities)
Ensure the Development of a Well Planned, Balanced, and Self-Sustaining Community in Ontario Ranch
FISCAL IMPACT:
Approval of the proposed Development Impact Fee (“DIF”) Credit Agreement (File No. PDIF21-006) will result in no fiscal impact to the City’s General Fund. The project’s Development Agreement (File No. PDA20-002) and related Conditions of Approval (COA) for the Development Plan (File No. PDEV22-001) require DPIF3 CA 36 Ontario Ranch LLC (“Developer”) to construct DIF Program infrastructure with an estimated cost of $11,283,229. The proposed DIF Credit Agreement defines the amount of DIF Credit that the Developer may be eligible to receive for construction of these improvements. The DIF Credit that the Developer will receive upon completion of the improvements may be exchanged for a refund of DIF that was paid by the Developer (up to the Developer’s maximum DIF obligation) in the respective DIF category.
73 BACKGROUND & ANALYSIS:
On June 1, 2021, the City Council adopted Ordinance No. 3184, approving a Development Agreement to establish the terms and conditions for the development of the project site. On August 15, 2022, the Development Advisory Board (DAB) adopted Decision No.
DAB22-028, approving a Development Plan to construct a 1,003,918 square foot industrial building on 54.28 acres of land generally located at the northwest corner of Hamner Avenue and Ontario Ranch Road, within Planning Area 7 (Light Industrial) land use district of the Rich Haven Specific Plan.
Per the Development Agreement and COA, the Developer is required to construct DIF Program infrastructure to serve the Development Plan, which includes the construction and completion of storm drain, street improvements, traffic signals, water and recycled water, sewer, and fiber optic facilities located along Mill Creek Avenue, Ontario Ranch Road, Hamner Avenue, and Schafer Avenue, within the Rich Haven Specific Plan development area.
Pursuant to the City’s adopted DIF Credit policies, construction of DIF Program facilities requires the Developer and the City to enter into a DIF Credit Agreement (“Agreement”). The terms of the proposed Agreement specify the defined portion of the infrastructure to be constructed by the Developer in the Local Adjacent or Regional DIF categories and includes an estimate of the maximum DIF Credit (not reimbursement) that may be applied in the respective Local Adjacent or Regional DIF category. This infrastructure is within Ontario Ranch Local Adjacent Storm Drain, Streets, Water, Sewer and Fiber Optic System categories. Since the maximum eligible costs in the Agreement for the required infrastructure exceeds the Developer’s DIF obligation, the Developer is eligible to receive DIF Credit under the proposed Agreement.
The proposed Agreement complies with the City’s DIF policies and is in conformance with the approved Development Agreement and related conditions. Under the provisions of the City’s DIF Program, the City Manager is authorized to execute such agreements upon approval by the City Council.

CONSENT CALENDAR
RECOMMENDATION:
That the City Council approve and authorize the City Manager or designee to execute a five-year Professional Services Agreement (on file in the Records Management Department) with Danken, of Ladera Ranch, California, to provide On-Call Structural Inspection and Construction Management Services for a not-to-exceed amount of $1,600,000.
THE FOLLOWING COUNCIL GOALS ARE BEING ACHIEVED:
Operate in a Businesslike Manner
Invest in the City's Infrastructure (Water, Streets, Sewers, Parks, Storm Drains and Public Facilities)
Ensure the Development of a Well Planned, Balanced, and Self-Sustaining Community in Ontario Ranch
FISCAL IMPACT:
The Agreement is for a three-year term with a two-year extension. The term is $600,000 for the first year and $500,000 for the second and third years with an overall not-to- exceed amount of $1,600,000. The Fiscal Year 2022-23 Adopted Operating Budgets includes appropriations for such services. This fund is covered by revenue received from fees collected from applicants for inspection services. Any subsequent amendments will be consistent with the adopted budget for that year.
BACKGROUND & ANALYSIS:
Due to the volume and timing of construction, specialized structural inspection services will be needed to supplement the City’s in-house inspection Staff. This will allow the City to maintain the schedule commitments to support development-related construction activities and to ensure that construction progresses in compliance with City requirements.
The City solicited proposals from qualified firms; responses from the following were evaluated:

A GOODS AND SERVICES AGREEMENT FOR FURNITURE DESIGN FOR THE BUILT

CITY OF ONTARIO
Agenda Report

SECTION:
CONSENT CALENDAR
RECOMMENDATION:
That the City Council authorize the City Manager or designee to execute a Goods and Services Agreement with K2 Design and Fabrication of Norco, California for furniture for the Built on Water exhibit at the Ontario Museum of History and Art, for a total not to exceed amount of $269,563.
THE FOLLOWING COUNCIL GOALS ARE BEING ACHIEVED:
Operate in a Businesslike Manner
Encourage, Provide or Support Enhanced Recreational, Educational, Cultural and Healthy City Programs, Policies and Activities
FISCAL IMPACT:
The Goods and Services Agreement has a not to exceed amount of $269,563.
Appropriations of $195,595 were included in the Fiscal Year 2022-23 Adopted Budget as part of the exhibition development and design under CIP Fund PF1903 to fund this project. The remaining $73,968 will be paid out of the Museum's Fiscal Year 2022-23 adopted General Fund grants budget and will be reimbursed through a grant from the Institute of Museum and Library Services (IMLS).
BACKGROUND & ANALYSIS:
In 2018, the Ontario Museum of History and Art received a federal grant from the Institute of Museum and Library Services (IMLS) for a new permanent exhibition, Built on Water: Ontario and Inland Southern California
. The exhibition focuses on the history and
future of water in Ontario and the surrounding region. This multi-year project supports the development of the exhibition, related programing, and technological components. To shape the narrative, the exhibition planning process brought together Museum Staff, water conservation districts, researchers, local archives, school districts, as well as the Ovitt Family Community Library, Ontario Municipal Utilities Company, and residents.
City Staff consulted with multiple entities throughout the planning process to bring this exhibit to fruition. The Museum is now in the final stage of design, ready to have exhibit furniture fabricated.
In an earlier planning stage, K2 Design and Fabrication was recommended to the Museum by the Riverside Art Museum. K2 Design and Fabrication is the sole fabricator of museum exhibits located 77 in the Inland Empire. Additionally, in 2021 the Museum conducted a competitive analysis and obtained bids where K2 Design and Fabrication was the lowest bidder.
Since K2 Design and Fabrication is local, offered the lowest bid on the preliminary design, and is one of the only businesses in the nation to provide this type of furniture, the Museum has determined that K2 is a logical and efficient choice for the fabrication of the exhibit furniture.
Selecting K2 Design and Fabrication would also provide the Museum with timely completion. The Built on Water exhibit is scheduled to open in March 2023. Grant funds must be fully utilized by March 30, 2023 to ensure compliance with federal grant requirements of the IMLS grant awarded for the project in 2018.
Staff requests that City Council authorize the execution of a Goods and Services Agreement with K2 Design and Fabrication for fabrication services for the Built on Water exhibit. 78 Department: Utilities

THE FOLLOWING COUNCIL GOALS ARE BEING ACHIEVED:
Focus Resources in Ontario's Commercial and Residential Neighborhoods Invest in the City's Infrastructure (Water, Streets, Sewers, Parks, Storm Drains and Public Facilities)
FISCAL IMPACT:
The proposed Amendment No. 3 to AKM Consulting Engineers Inc. increases the existing Agreement amount by $39,908, for a total revised Agreement amount of not-to-exceed $448,187. The proposed Amendment No. 4 to Bay Alarm Company increases the existing Agreement by $25,271, for a total revised Agreement amount of not-to-exceed $876,262. The total cost for the recommended action is $65,179.
The Fiscal Year 2021-22 Adopted Capital Improvement Program includes appropriations from the Water Capital Fund and the New Model Colony (NMC) Local Adjacent Water Fund for this project, which will be included in the project carryover process in the Fiscal Year 2022-23 First Quarter Budget Update Report. There is no impact to the General Fund. 79 BACKGROUND & ANALYSIS:
The City currently has seventeen (17) active groundwater wells. The City’s Water Master Plan identified the need for additional wells to pump groundwater to meet the future water demands of Ontario Ranch and expand existing water supply capacity and reliability.
Pursuant to the First Amended and Restated Agreement for the Financing and Construction of Limited Infrastructure Improvements to Serve an Easterly Portion of the NMC and per the NMC Construction Agreement, the NMC Builders are responsible for funding the drilling and equipping of three groundwater wells as a requirement for development in Ontario Ranch. Two wells have been completed with Well No. 43 being the third and final well, which is located along Airport Drive, east of Haven Avenue.
On August 17, 2021, Council authorized the award of a construction contract and approval of several construction services amendments for the Equipping of Well No. 43 Project in the amount of $5,417,835. The work proposed under these contract/amendments included the equipping of Well No. 43 with the installation of: a well pump and motor; onsite disinfection equipment; an emergency stand-by generator; electrical controls; construction of building for the well equipment; and site work including perimeter fencing and landscaping. Construction management and inspection services are also needed as part of this amendment.
During construction, there has been an increase of vagrancy, theft, and property damage at multiple well and treatment sites throughout the City that have resulted in losses of approximately $200,000. To improve security, it is recommended that Well No. 43 have a high-definition security camera system installed on-site. This increased connectivity to OMUC facilities will allow City Staff to recognize potential intruders and allow for faster response times by the Ontario Police Department.
In addition to the installation of a site security system, this project will require additional construction management and inspection time from AKM Consulting Engineers Co. as a result of some material delays from various manufacturers and additional time granted to the contractor.
This will result in a revised project completion date from October 4, 2022, to early 2023. 80 Department: Engineering

ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW:
The proposed Project is a component of the 2012 Infrastructure Master Plans that was approved by the City Council on December 4, 2012. A Mitigated Negative Declaration (MND) was prepared and approved for the 2012 Infrastructure Master Plans pursuant to the provisions of CEQA. The MND addressed the drainage, sewer, water and recycled water master plans (2012 Infrastructure Master Plans) including their alignments, pipe sizes and installation for the City. No revisions or modifications have been made in regard to the proposed Project, and the approved MND continues to constitute an accurate and complete assessment of the proposed Project. Staff has analyzed the proposed Project and has determined that there is no deviation from the description of this component of the overall 2012 Infrastructure Master Plans.
Thus, no further CEQA analysis is required.

CITY OF ONTARIO
Agenda Report
November 15, 2022
SECTION:
CONSENT CALENDAR
RECOMMENDATION:
That the City Council approve and authorize the City Manager to execute Amendment No. 14 to the On-Call Design Services Agreement (on file in the Records Management Department) with Infrastructure Engineering Corporation of Irvine, California, for Laurel Avenue Sewer Main Improvements, UT 1069 Sultana Avenue Sewer Main Improvements, and Nocta Street Sewer Main Improvements, in the amount not-to-exceed $372,026.
THE FOLLOWING COUNCIL GOALS ARE BEING ACHIEVED:
Operate in a Businesslike Manner
Invest in the Growth and Evolution of the City's Economy Invest in the City's Infrastructure (Water, Streets, Sewers, Parks, Storm Drains and Public Facilities)
FISCAL IMPACT:
The Fiscal Year 2021-22 Capital Improvement Program includes appropriations in the amount of $215,000 from the Sewer Capital Fund for this project, which will be included in the project carryover process in the Fiscal Year 2022-23 First Quarter Budget Update Report. If approved, additional appropriations in the amount of $157,026 from the Sewer Capital Fund will be included in the Fiscal Year 2022-23 Mid-Year Budget Update Report to City Council.
The proposed Amendment in the amount of $372,026 will increase the current total not-to exceed authorization for the On-Call Agreement from $2,393,700 to $2,765,726. The City and Infrastructure Engineering Corporation (IEC) have agreed to the fixed billing rates and IEC will be compensated for completion of the scope of work at the approved billing rates. There is no impact to the General Fund.
BACKGROUND & ANALYSIS:
The City’s sewer system includes approximately 440 miles of pipeline.
The Sewer Master Plan (SMP) identifies various capital needs which are prioritized based on existing 89 capacity deficiencies and deterioration, improvements for future growth, and the current level of maintenance activities required to provide adequate and reliable service.
Using the Sewer Master Plan in conjunction with maintenance data, Staff has identified the need to upgrade existing sewer infrastructure within the downtown area. Specifically, existing sewer mains along an alley east of Laurel Avenue, between G Street and Holt Boulevard and within the Civic Center, west of Sultana Avenue are proposed to be diverted into larger diameter mains to alleviate excessive demand on the existing system. Diversion of these flows and construction of the new sewer mains will facilitate revitalization opportunities in the vicinity of these projects. The Sultana Avenue sewer main will only be required if the existing sewer location conflicts with the final design of the new Fire Station #1 and Civic Center Parking Structure.
Design of the Laurel Avenue sewer main will consist of 3,035 linear feet of 10” sewer main from G Street to Euclid Avenue. This will divert flows north of G Street from the existing aged sewer main constructed in 1895 from the alley to the new Laurel Avenue sewer main (see Exhibit “A”). Design of the Sultana Avenue sewer main will consist of 1,513 linear feet of 10” sewer main from Cherry Avenue to B Street. This will divert flows north of D Street from Cherry Avenue to the new Sultana Avenue sewer main (see Exhibit “B”).
Staff has also identified that the Nocta Street sewer main is an area of concern and has historically required extensive maintenance and repair. The existing sewer main is not optimized because it requires regular cleaning and is very difficult to access due to the location as it runs through an apartment complex south of Nocta Street.
A sewer analysis for the sewer diversion in Nocta Street and Allyn Avenue has been completed. The intent of the study was to analyze the capacity of diverting the sewer flow in Nocta Street and Allyn Avenue downstream to the existing sewer in Holt Boulevard. Based on the results that were collected, the sewer diversion will allow for a more optimized system, alleviate the sewer flows into the aged sewer main constructed in 1949, and reduce the need of regular cleaning and potential threats to overflow. The design of the Nocta Street sewer main will consist of 1,350 linear feet of 8” sewer main from Nocta Street to Allyn Avenue (see Exhibit “C”).
The scope of the design services for the project will be separated into three design and construction packages for Laurel Avenue Sewer Main Improvements, Sultana Avenue Sewer Main Improvements, and Nocta Street Sewer Main Improvements, respectively. Each project scope will include utility research, preliminary engineering, design, development of bid packages for construction, and bid support services.
In May of 2019, the City Council awarded on-call design services with Infrastructure Engineering Corporation and two other consultants. Infrastructure Engineering Corporation and the other consultants were selected using a qualification-based selection process. The agreements were awarded as three-year agreements with two (2) additional one (1) year periods consistent with Council approved budgets. As projects arise, Staff will request proposals from the consultants and amend the original agreement with revised scopes of works and costs.
On August 1, 2022, Staff solicited proposals from these On-Call Consultants for engineering services 90 for these sewer main improvement projects. On September 1, 2022, the City received the following two (2) qualified proposals in response to the Request for Proposals (RFP) for UT 1067 Laurel Avenue Sewer Main Improvements, UT 1069 Sultana Avenue Sewer Main Improvements, and UT 1070 Nocta Street Sewer Main Improvements:

LOCATION
Infrastructure Engineering Corporation (IEC)
Irvine, CA
Stantec Consulting Services, Inc.

Staff has reviewed the proposals and recommends IEC based upon an understanding of the project scope and the City’s needs, and criteria specified in the RFP. After careful evaluation, IEC was selected as best overall respondent. Staff is, therefore, recommending the proposed amendment to Infrastructure Engineering Corporation based on their understanding of the project scope and their approach in this project.

FISCAL IMPACT:
There is not a direct fiscal impact associated with this Public Hearing.
BACKGROUND & ANALYSIS:
On April 19, 2022, the City Council conducted the first of five public hearings to receive community input regarding communities of interest. The second public hearing took place on May 10, 2022, at which time Staff introduced and provided a demonstration of the mapping tool that was subsequently released to the public. At that public hearing, the City Council also received input regarding communities of interest. Ten initial draft maps were made available on the City's district website on June 13, 2022, for public review. Six additional draft maps were posted on the City's district website on June 30, 2022.
On June 21, 2022, the City conducted the third Public Hearing where the City demographer presented and the City Council received input from the community. On July 5, 2022, the City conducted its fourth public hearing in the districting process. The City Attorney's Office evaluated publicly submitted comments and maps for compliance with the California Voting Rights Act and Federal Voting Rights Act, and initial draft maps were presented to Council for consideration at the fourth public hearing.
On July 19, 2022, the City conducted the fifth public hearing. At the fifth public hearing, the City Council provide direction to Staff and the City's demographers to advance certain maps for further consideration (Map 4, Map 6, and Map 10) and to conduct additional public outreach and community engagement regarding proposed maps. Following the fifth public hearing, the City held 95 seven additional community engagement meetings, three virtually (including one in Spanish), two at community centers, and two in conjunction with the Route 66 Cruisin' Reunion event. During the additional community outreach, a seventeenth map was submitted by Mr. Chris Robles, plaintiff in the California Voting Rights Act demand to transition to district-based elections. Mr. Robles worked collaboratively with the Center for Community Action and Environmental Justice and the Black and Brown Alliance in creating a seventeenth map, "Map 17". The proposed election sequence for Map 17 includes District 1 and 2 in 2024 and Districts 3 and 4 in 2026.
On November 1, 2022, City Council conducted the sixth public hearing, considered the draft maps submitted, and introduced an Ordinance approving Map 17 as the final district map. Staff recommends the City Council adopt the Ordinance as presented. 96 ORDINANCE NO. ________

Except for the Mayor, a person shall not be eligible to be elected to be a member of the City Council unless he or she is otherwise qualified as required by law and resided in the district, and both resided in the geographical area making up the district from which he or she is nominated to be elected and was a registered voter of the City of Ontario at the time nomination papers are issued to the candidate as provided for in Section 10227 of the California Elections Code. It is the intent of the City Council, in enacting this ordinance, that no term of any member of the City Council that commences on or prior to the effective date of the ordinance codified in this section shall be affected prior to its expiration date.
B. Registered voters signing nomination papers or voting for a member of the City Council shall be residents of the geographical area making up the district from which the member is to be elected.
C. The terms of the office of each member elected to the City Council, including the Mayor, shall remain four years. (d) Commencement of district elections. It is the intent of the City Council, in enacting this ordinance, that this section shall not affect any term of office in existence or commencing on or before the effective date of the ordinance codified in this section.

(e) Adjustment of boundaries.
A. Pursuant to Elections Code Section 21601, as it may be amended, the City Council shall, by ordinance or resolution, adjust the boundaries of any or all of the districts following each decennial federal census. Using the census as a basis, the City Council shall adjust the boundaries so that the districts shall be as nearly equal in population as practicable and in compliance with all applicable provisions of law. Any adjustment of district boundaries shall be made by ordinance or resolution, adopted by the City Council before the first day of November of the year following the year in which each decennial federal census is taken. Prior to the public hearing approving the adjustment of the district boundaries, the City Council shall hold at least one public hearing on the proposed district boundaries as required by Election Code Section 21607.
B. At the time of any annexation of territory to the City, the City Council shall designate, by resolution adopted by a vote of at least a majority of the City Council, the contiguous district to which the annexed territory shall be a part and shall amend the district boundaries if necessary in accordance with Election Code Section 21603, as it may be amended.
C. Pursuant to Elections Code Section 21606, the term of office of any Council member who has been elected and whose term of office has not expired shall not be affected by any change in the boundaries of the district from which he or she was elected. At the first election for Council following adjustment of the boundaries of the districts, a person meeting the requirements of Government Code Section 34882 shall be elected to the City Council for each district under the readjusted district plan that has the same district number as a district whose incumbent’s term on the Council is due to expire. (f) Implementation. If necessary to facilitate the implementation of this Ordinance, the City Clerk is authorized to make technical adjustments to the district boundaries that do not substantively affect the populations in the districts, the eligibility of candidates, or the residence of elected officials within any district. The City Clerk shall consult with the City Manager and City Attorney concerning any technical adjustments deemed necessary and shall advise the City Council of any such adjustments required in the implementation of the districts.”
SECTION 2. Effective Date. This Ordinance shall be become effective thirty (30) days after its adoption.
SECTION 3. Inconsistencies. To the extent the terms and provisions of this Ordinance may be inconsistent or in conflict with the terms or conditions of any prior City 101
ordinance, motion, resolution, rule or regulation government the same subject, the terms of this Ordinance shall prevail with respect to the subject matter thereof.
SECTION 4. Interpretation. In interpreting this Ordinance or resolving any ambiguity, this Ordinance shall be interpreted in a manner that effectively accomplishes its state purposes.
SECTION 5. CEQA. Pursuant to Section 15320 of the Guidelines for the Implementation of the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”), further review under CEQA is not required because the City Council action in establishing district-based elections consists of a change in the organization or reorganization of a local governmental agency where the change does not change the geographical area in which previously existing powers are exercised. Therefore, the City Council finds that it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that this action will result in any environmental effect.
The City Clerk is hereby directed to file a Notice of Exemption with the County Clerk within three (3) days following the date of this Ordinance.
SECTION 6. Publication. The City Clerk shall certify to the adoption of this Ordinance. Not later than fifteen (15) days following the passage of this Ordinance, the Ordinance, or a summary thereof, along with the names of the City Council members voting for and against the Ordinance, shall be published in a newspaper of general circulation in the City of Ontario.
SECTION 7. Severability. If any section, subsection, subdivision, sentence, clause phrase, or portion of this Ordinance is, for any reason, held to be invalid or unconstitutional by the decision of any court or competent jurisdiction, then such decision shall not affect the validity of the remaining portions of this Ordinance. The City Council of the City of Ontario hereby declares it would have adopted this Ordinance and each section, subsection, subdivision, sentence, clause, phrase, or portion thereof, irrespective of the fact that any one or more sections, subsections, subdivisions, sentences, clauses, phrases, or portions thereof be declared invalid or unconstitutional.

SUBJECT:
A PUBLIC HEARING TO CONSIDER A MILLS ACT CONTRACT (PRESERVATION AGREEMENT), FILE NO. PHP22-011, FOR A DESIGNATED HISTORIC PROPERTY
CITY OF ONTARIO
Agenda Report
November 15, 2022
SECTION:
PUBLIC HEARINGS
RECOMMENDATION:
That the City Council consider and adopt a resolution approving and authorizing the City Manager or designee to enter into a Mills Act contract (Preservation Agreement), for the designated historic property
located at 119 East Princeton Street (APN: 1047-
531-31), Rafael Marquez and Jacqueline Gonzalez.
THE FOLLOWING COUNCIL GOALS ARE BEING ACHIEVED:
Invest in the Growth and Evolution of the City's Economy Focus Resources in Ontario's Commercial and Residential Neighborhoods FISCAL IMPACT:
The projected net impact of the proposed contract to the City is $1,083 in the first year and approximately $10,830 over the first ten years of the contract from a reduction in property tax revenue. This minimal reduction in property tax revenue will be accounted for in the revenue estimates as part of the annual budget process. In exchange for this property tax reduction, $154,520 in private property investments will be made over a ten-year period.
BACKGROUND & ANALYSIS:
One Mills Act contract is being proposed for this year representing a total investment of $154,520 of private funds into the City’s neighborhoods over the next ten years.
The contract calls for improvements to exterior finishes (tree maintenance and trimming, irrigation, window restoration, new roof, repairs to front concrete steps and landing), interior finishes (repair to interior flooring, ceilings, and doors), and systems upgrades (electrical, plumbing and sewer line).
A Mills Act contract is a contract between the City and a property owner whereby the property owner agrees to certain improvements that preserve the historic integrity and character of the building and keep the property in good repair. In exchange for the investments, State law requires the San Bernardino County Assessor to reassess the property’s value based on an alternative formula. The new assessed value may result in a significant reduction in the owner’s property taxes.
The Mills Act does not require investment in the property to be equal to the amount of the tax savings. The purpose is to provide a financial incentive to the owners of historic properties to maintain their properties consistent with its historic context. 106
Upon City Council approval, the City Clerk will inform the San Bernardino County Assessor that the property owners have entered into a Mills Act contract. The contract is a perpetual 10-year contract that automatically renews annually. If a property with a recorded Mills Act contract is sold, the County of San Bernardino will continue to assess the property using the alternate formula and the new owner will be required to fulfill the contractual preservation agreement. A contract can be “non-renewed” by either party upon written notice. If a contract is cancelled as a result of non- compliance with the conditions of the contract, a cancellation fee of 12.5% of the market value (as of the time of cancellation) is assessed by the County Assessor and shall be paid by the property owner to the County Auditor.
The City has 82 approved Mills Act contracts and one proposed, for a total of 83 Mills Act contracts.
Of the 83 properties, six are commercial, one is multiple-family residential, and 76 are single-family residential. The contract proposed this year is an owner occupied, single-family residence. Property tax impacts are summarized below:
Existing
Proposed
Total
Number of Contracts
82 1
83 Estimated Annual Total Tax Savings to Owners
$149,684
$6,447
$156,131

$1,083
$26,230
Estimated Cost to City (over ten years)
$251,470
$10,830
$262,300
The estimated cost of the 83 Mills Act contracts over a ten-year period is $262,300. In exchange for this decrease in property tax revenues, approximately $3,626,540 will be reinvested into historic buildings in Ontario neighborhoods over a ten-year period – a ratio of $13.83 in private funds spent for every dollar the City foregoes in property tax revenue.
The Mills Act contract is in compliance with the provisions of Article 12 (commencing with Section 50280), Chapter 1, Part 1, Division 1, Title 5 of the Government Code of the State of California, which establishes the Mills Act program. The property is a contributor to a locally designated historic district and therefore is a qualified property eligible for a Mills Act contract.
On October 25, 2022, the Historic Preservation Commission voted unanimously (5-0) to recommend City Council approval of the proposed Mills Act contract.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW:
The application was reviewed pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (Public Resources Code Section 21000 et seq.) ("CEQA"). Pursuant to Section 21065 of the CEQA Guidelines, the Historic Preservation Agreement (Mills Act contract) is not considered a project. Therefore, no further environmental review is required.

ACKGROUND: Effective March 7, 1973, Chapter 1442 of the Statutes of 1972 (also known as the Mills Act) added Sections 50280 through 50289 to the Government Code to allow an owner of a qualified historical property to enter into a preservation contract with a local government. The City of Ontario established the Mills Act program in 1997 to provide an economic inc entive for the preservation of designated historic l andmarks and/or contributing structures within a designated historic d istrict. Since inception of the City’s program, 82 Mills Act Contracts have been approved and recorded. There is one contract proposed at this time, for a single-family residence designated as a Contributor to the College Park Historic District.
I
n order for the historic property to be eligible for the program , it must meet the requirements outlined in the guidelines and standards set by the State of California, Board of Equalization, and the City’s Development Code (Sec. 4.02.065). The historic property must be either a local, state, or nationally designated property or a contributor within a locally designated historic district whereby the property owner agrees to certain improvements to restore, rehabilitate, or preserve a qualified historic building . In exchange, the San Bernardino County Tax Assessor reassesses the property’s value based on an alternative formula that may result in a significant reduction in the owner’s property taxes.
Pu
rsuant to State law, a Mills Act Contract is recorded on the property and is a perpetual 10-year contract that automatically rene ws annually, unless the property owner or the City request a notice of non -renewal.

responsibilities remain with the land, even aft er a change of ownership. If a c ontract is cancelled for any reason, including non-compliance with the conditions of the contract, or upon the request of the property owner or City, a cancellation fee of 12.5 percent of the market value (as of the time of cancellation) is assessed.
PROJECT ANALYSIS: Staff provides estimates of potential tax savings for the property owner, but ultimately, only the San Bernardino County Assessor can determine the actual Mills Act adjusted value. The Mills Act assessment involves many variables that are typically determined by market forces such as interest rates, capitalization rates, and fair market rental rates. The average property tax savings for the proposed Mills Act Contracts roughly range between 30 and 55 percent in the initial year, with a tax savings decrease each passing year. According to the Cit y budget, Ontario receives 16.8 percent of the property taxes collected. Using that percentage, staff has also calculated the estimated reduction in property tax revenue, the “City cost,” and has included that in the analysis.
Upon City Council approval, the City Clerk informs the San Bernardino County Assessor that the property has entered into a Mills Act Contract. The Assessor valuates the historic property with the Mills Act assessment the following tax year, which may differ from the Planning Department estimates.

A PUBLIC HEARING TO CONSIDER A RESOLUTION APPROVING THE DESIGNATION OF THE MAURICE JOHNSON HOUSE, LOCATED AT 409 NORTH SAN ANTONIO
AVENUE, AS A LOCAL HISTORIC LANDMARK
CITY OF ONTARIO
Agenda Report
November 15, 2022
SECTION:
PUBLIC HEARINGS
RECOMMENDATION:
That the City Council adopt a resolution approving File No. PHP21-016, designating 409 North San Antonio (APN: 1048-314-11) as Local Historic Landmark No. 100.
THE FOLLOWING COUNCIL GOALS ARE BEING ACHIEVED:
Invest in the Growth and Evolution of the City's Economy Focus Resources in Ontario's Commercial and Residential Neighborhoods FISCAL IMPACT:
The approval of the Local Historic Landmark designation will not have a direct fiscal impact. However, if the designation is approved, the property owner will be eligible to apply for a Mills Act Contract which, if approved, would provide for a potential reduction in property taxes in exchange for an agreed-upon list of improvements to the property.
BACKGROUND & ANALYSIS:
Mallory Jean, Robby Gibson, and Gray McMinn (property owners) requested that the Maurice Johnson House, located at 409 North San Antonio, be designated as a Local Historic Landmark. The Maurice Johnson House was constructed in the Folk Architectural style in 1946. The word Folk was first used in the 1800s. This style relies on the natural materials available and their functionality and will reflect local traditions. The Maurice Johnson House is an excellent example of the Folk architectural style, which is evident by the presence of the building’s character-defining features, including the use of salvaged materials such as the stone siding and ornate doors. Other characteristics of the residence that are typical of the Folk architectural style include a simple construction method, irregular placement on the lot, and the extensive plantings surrounding the property. Other contributing historical features on the site include the detached garage/workshop, wooden shed, informal garden, and mature landscaping on the property.
HISTORIC SIGNIFICANCE:
On October 25, 2022, the Historic Preservation Commission voted unanimously (6-0) to recommend that the City Council designate the Maurice Johnson House as a 148
Local Historic Landmark as it meets the local landmark designation criteria set forth in Section
4.02.040.B.2.d of the Ontario Development Code:
The historic resource embodies distinguishing architectural characteristics of a style, type, period, or method of construction.
The Maurice Johnson House is an excellent example of the Folk architectural style, which is evident by the presence of the building’s character-defining features, including the use of salvaged materials such as the stone siding and ornate doors. Other characteristics of the residence that are typical of the Folk architectural style include a simple construction method, irregular placement on the lot, and the extensive plantings surrounding the property. The rubble construction residence is the only known example of this type in the City of Ontario and was built with many unique materials, including cement believed to have been salvaged from “A” Street (Holt Boulevard) concrete curbs, and a door from an early broadcasting station. Other contributing historical features include the detached garage/workshop, wooden shed, informal garden and mature landscaping on the property.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW:
The application was reviewed pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (Public Resources Code Section 21000 et seq.) (“CEQA”). Per Section 21065 of the CEQA Guidelines, the local landmark designation is not considered a project. 149
