SPECIAL CEREMONIES

RECOMMENDATION:

That the City Council proclaim the week of October 15-21, 2023 as Friends of Libraries Week.

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:

This year marks the 18th annual National Friends of Libraries Week, to be celebrated from October 15 to October 21, 2023. The purpose of this week is to honor and acknowledge the dedicated efforts of library supporters who generously volunteer their time and resources to bolster local libraries. It also serves as an opportunity to raise awareness about Friends of Libraries groups and encourage community engagement to support and enrich our local libraries.

Since its informal inception in 1968, the Friends of Ontario City Library (FOCL), a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, has been instrumental in advancing the mission of the Ontario City Library. The organization officially incorporated in 1973. Historically, FOCL has raised funds to support library programs and services by selling second-hand books. Within each library branch, a designated used book sale area is overseen by the FOCL Board of Directors and managed by dedicated library volunteers. Additionally, FOCL raises funds through membership dues, available as annual payments or a one-time "lifetime" membership.

Beyond their financial contributions, FOCL plays a vital role in nurturing a stronger bond between the Ontario City Library and the community, fostering increased public and private sector support.

They actively advocate for the library within the community. The Friends of Ontario City Library frequently sponsors cultural and literacy programs, including author visits, to benefit the community.

10 In December 2022, a new board of directors was elected for FOCL. Board meetings are held at the Ovitt Family Community Library on the first Thursday of each month at 6:30 p.m. The board is comprised of of 12 engaged community members, while the organization boasts a membership of more than 100 individuals and families.

FOCL has allocated over $11,000 to support various Ontario City Library programs and services this year. These funds are earmarked for programs and initiatives such as Summer at Ontario City Library, essential support for the library's English as a Second Language (ESL) classes, and funding to sustain children's literacy programs.

A celebratory event marking the 50th Anniversary of FOCL will take place on November 4, 2023, at the Ovitt Family Community Library from 6:00 to 8:00 p.m. This occasion offers an opportunity for community members to join in commemorating the longstanding commitment of FOCL to the Ontario City Library's growth and success. Tickets are required for the event and can be purchased through FOCL.

Residents interested in learning more about FOCL can explore their official website at https://friendsofontariocitylibrary.org, email [email protected], or contact them by phone at (909) 395-2224.

Staff recommends that the City Council recognize and commend the Friends of Ontario City Library for their tireless efforts in supporting our local libraries. The City Council is also encouraged to spread awareness about the upcoming National Friends of Libraries Week and the various ways residents can engage with and contribute to enriching our library's resources. 11

SECTION:

CONSENT CALENDAR

RECOMMENDATION:

That the City Council take the following actions:

A
.

Reject Preferred General Services Inc.’s protest against Applied Restoration Inc. for D&C23- 012 Museum Waterproofing as non-responsive;
B
.

Authorize the City Manager or his designee to complete and execute a Construction Contract D&C23-012 Museum Waterproofing (on file with the Records Management Department) with Applied Restoration, Inc., of El Cajon, California, for the Ontario Museum of History & Arts Exterior Waterproofing Project for a total not-to-exceed contract amount of $557,000; C

.

Authorize the City Manager or his designee to execute all documents required for the completion of the project including, but not limited to agreements, assessments, easements, reduction of retention accounts, contract amendments within the authorization limits, and filing a notice of completion at the conclusion of all construction related activities.

THE FOLLOWING COUNCIL GOALS ARE BEING ACHIEVED:

Invest in the City's Infrastructure (Water, Streets, Sewers, Parks, Storm Drains and Public Facilities)
Encourage, Provide or Support Enhanced Recreational, Educational, Cultural and Healthy City Programs, Policies and Activities
Operate in a Businesslike Manner
FISCAL IMPACT:

The Fiscal Year 2023-24 Adopted Budget includes appropriations in the Capital Projects-Measure Q Fund for the waterproofing of the Ontario Museum of History & Arts (part of the Museum Master Plan Capital Improvement Project). The recommended contract award to Applied Restoration, Inc. is $557,000, plus a 20% contingency of $111,400 for a total not-to-exceed contract amount of $668,400, funded by Measure Q.

28 BACKGROUND & ANALYSIS:

The Ontario Museum of History & Arts has a history of water intrusion within the basement. After heavy rains this year, the issue has become a safety concern due to the floor mounted electrical panel situated within the basement. To prevent further water damage, unnecessary windows in the basement will be eliminated, walls will be inspected above and below grade for necessary repairs, and a waterproofing coating will be applied to the exterior walls and possibly the interior walls based on the extent of the repairs required.

On August 3, 2023, the City solicited proposals for waterproofing and necessary repairs at the Ontario Museum of History & Arts and three (3) proposals were received:

BIDDER

$557,000
Preferred General Services, Inc.

Apple Valley, CA
$597,090
Guthrie General of California,
Inc.

Newport Beach, CA
$1,025,712

Preferred General Services, Inc. protested Applied Restoration, Inc. on the grounds that the Bid Bond was not signed by the contractor and form not complete. Applied Restoration, Inc. submitted two (2) sets of the bid bond package of which one did contain the appropriate signatures.

Therefore, the protest has no merit as the failure to include a signed bid bond is not a fatal defect in the submittal and the bond issuer is bound by its terms regardless of whether its signed or not.

Applied Restoration, Inc., located in El Cajon, California, submitted the lowest responsive bid with a base cost of $557,000. Based on the credentials, pricing, and favorable reference checks, Staff recommends awarding the Construction Contract to Applied Restoration, Inc. The project has an estimated completion date of May 15, 2024.

SECTION:

CONSENT CALENDAR

RECOMMENDATION:

That the City Council take the following actions:

A
.

Authorize a Cooperative Purchase Agreement for D&C23-008 208 W. Emporia St. 2nd Floor (on file with the Records Management Department) with Margaret C. Pett DBA Info-Com Business Products (Info-Com), of Altadena, California, for the purchase and installation of furniture in the amount of $168,976 consistent with the terms and conditions of the OMNIA 2020 #R191817 and OMNIA 2022 #R221001; and
B
.

Authorize a 10% contingency of $16,898, for a total contract amount not-to-exceed $185,874.

THE FOLLOWING COUNCIL GOALS ARE BEING ACHIEVED:

Invest in the City's Infrastructure (Water, Streets, Sewers, Parks, Storm Drains and Public Facilities)
FISCAL IMPACT:

The Fiscal Year 2023-24 Adopted Budget includes appropriations in the General Fund for the purchase and installation of furniture at 208 W. Emporia St. 2nd Floor. The recommended contract amount with Info-Com is $168,976 plus a 10% contingency of $16,898 for a total not-to-exceed contract amount of $185,874.

BACKGROUND & ANALYSIS:

The Community Life & Culture Agency floor plan on the 2nd floor of 208 W. Emporia St. needs to be redesigned to accommodate operational and staffing needs due to departmental growth. To accommodate the Agency’s needs, Info-Com will design and furnish new cubicle workstations and furniture. This new layout includes the design and installation of 22 new stations, seven (7) private office station modifications, an office reconfiguration to a conference room, and added furniture. This redesign will allow for projected personnel count and growth within the Community Life & Culture Agency.

In general conformation with the provisions of Government Code Section 54201 through 54204, Ontario Municipal Code Section 2-6.29 allows for the purchase of supplies and equipment through 30 cooperative purchasing programs, pursuant to California Government Code Section 6502 and City of Ontario Resolution No. 91-141.

OMNIA 2020 #R191817 and OMNIA 2022 #R221001 are contracts from approved vendors through the OMNIA cooperative purchasing program. OMNIA is an organization that provides cooperative purchasing, allowing governmental agencies to "piggyback" off of their bidding process. Staff is recommending to "piggyback" off of these contracts since Info-Com is also designing and furnishing other office spaces at 208 W. Emporia St., which will give the office spaces a streamlined appearance.

SECTION:

CONSENT CALENDAR

RECOMMENDATION:

That the City Council authorize the City Manager or his designee to execute Amendment No. 4 to the Maintenance Services Agreement (on file with the Records Management) for Contract No. PM2021-2 with Greentech Landscape, Inc., of Whittier, California, to provide landscape maintenance services for a newly acquired Community Facilities District (CFD) located in the Ontario Ranch area in the amount of $105,304 for a total not-to-exceed contract amount of $1,300,918.

THE FOLLOWING COUNCIL GOALS ARE BEING ACHIEVED:

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 recommended Amendment No. 4 will increase the contract amount by $105,304 for a total contract amount not-to-exceed $1,300,918. The Fiscal Year 2023-24 Adopted Budget includes appropriations in the General Fund for the maintenance cost of landscape maintenance services.

BACKGROUND & ANALYSIS:

The City is responsible for the landscape maintenance of parkways and medians throughout the Ontario Ranch area. On July 1, 2021, the City Council authorized the City Manager to execute Amendment No. 3 to the three-year Maintenance Services Agreement with Greentech Landscape, Inc., to add five (5) additional CFD sites and increase the contract amount.

The Maintenance Services Agreement provides landscape maintenance services for parkways and medians located in the Ontario Ranch area. One new area in the Ontario Ranch area has recently been accepted by the City and needs to be added to the Maintenance Services Agreement. This includes the CFD area at the Esparanza Community located on the Southwest Corner of Eucalyptus Avenue and Hamner Avenue. The annual cost to include landscape maintenance services to the 32 parkway planters located in the Ontario Ranch area is $105,304 for a total not-to-exceed contract amount of $1,300,918.

SECTION:

CONSENT CALENDAR

RECOMMENDATION:

That the City Council approve and authorize the City Manager, or designee, to execute a Professional Services Agreement (on file in the Records Management Department) with West Yost & Associates Inc., of Davis, California, for Lead Service Line Inventory: Field Identification and Materials Classification Services in the total not-to-exceed amount of $251,643 and a term from October 3, 2023 to June 30, 2024.

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)
FISCAL IMPACT:

The proposed Agreement is for a total-not-to-exceed amount of $251,643. The term of the Agreement will be from October 3, 2023 to June 30, 2024. The Fiscal Year 2023-24 Adopted Budget includes appropriations from the Water Operating Fund for Lead Service Line Inventory: Field Identification and Materials Classification Services. The City and West Yost & Associates Inc. have agreed to fixed billing rates for each water service line identified and classified and 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 U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s 2021 Lead and Copper Rule requires the City to publish a lead service line inventory, identify all public and privately owned drinking water service lines and classify the pipe’s material as lead or non-lead by October 16, 2024.

As a result, the City must develop an inventory, field identify, and classify all service line pipe materials that deliver drinking water to its customers.

The City solicited for bids, however, no proposals were received for Bid No. 1667 for Lead Service Inventory: Field Identification and Materials Classification Services. West Yost & Associates Inc. was subsequently solicited and selected for this sole source Agreement as they meet the required 34 qualifications and have certified field staff to identify service lines and classify the pipe materials.

West Yost & Associates Inc. is a current on-call contractor with the City for recycled water pipeline inspection and testing of potable and recycled water systems and have proven to reliably deliver high quality services.

CITY OF ONTARIO
Agenda Report

SECTION:

CONSENT CALENDAR

RECOMMENDATION:

That the City Council approve and authorize the City Manager, or designee, to award a Construction Contract (on file in the Records Management Department) to General Pump Company Inc., of San Dimas, California, for on-call maintenance, rehabilitation, inspections, and emergency well and booster pump repairs in the amount of $800,000 for Fiscal Year 2023-24, and authorize the cost of $800,000, with up to a 5% increase per Fiscal Year (2024-25 to 2027-28) for a total not-to-exceed amount of $4,420,505, with an initial term of one (1) year, and authorize the option to extend the Contract for up to four (4) consecutive one (1) year periods, at the set pricing levels per Bid No. 1672.

THE FOLLOWING COUNCIL GOALS ARE BEING ACHIEVED:

Invest in the City's Infrastructure (Water, Streets, Sewers, Parks, Storm Drains and Public Facilities)
FISCAL IMPACT:

The Fiscal Year 2023-24 Adopted Capital Improvement Program Budget includes appropriations from the Water Capital Fund to cover the cost for on-call maintenance, rehabilitation, inspections, and emergency well and booster pump repairs. The total cost for the recommended action is $4,420,505. The original term of the Contract will be from October 5, 2023 to June 30, 2024. At the City’s discretion, up to four (4) additional one (1) year extensions may be executed. Pricing for each year will be negotiated and any increases will not exceed 5% per year.

Actual expenses will be based on actual worked performed and material billing rates in the bid pricing. There is no impact to the General Fund.

BACKGROUND & ANALYSIS:

The City’s water system utilizes twenty-one groundwater wells and sixteen booster pumps with motors ranging in size to 800 horsepower, and pumps capable of producing up to 3,500 gallons per minute. Each of these pumps and motors need to be rehabilitated periodically to ensure reliable operation and extend the useful life of the capital investment. In addition, this work maintains the energy efficiency of the facilities which result in lower energy usage for one of the largest operating costs of the City’s water system. 36 The proposed Contract is for the planned maintenance and rehabilitation of wells and booster stations, along with inspections and emergency repairs due to sudden and unexpected well failures.

On August 3, 2023, bids were received through the City’s electronic bid management system for Bid No. 1672, Water Well Rehabilitation and Repair. Companies that submitted bids are as follows:

Staff recommends awarding the Contract to General Pump Company Inc. as they have performed this type of work in the past, including the previous annual contract and is familiar with the City's requirements, has the ability to perform the work in a timely manner, and has the expertise in well rehabilitation and repairs. 37 Department: Recreation & Community Services

A COMMUNITY GARDEN USE AGREEMENT WITH CARAMEL CONNECTIONS FOR

PROPERTY AT ANTHONY MUNOZ PARK

CITY OF ONTARIO
Agenda Report

SECTION:

CONSENT CALENDAR

RECOMMENDATION:

That the City Council authorize the City Manager, or designee, to execute a Use Agreement with Caramel Connections Foundation (on file in the Records Management Department) for a portion of real property at Anthony Munoz Hall of Fame Park, generally located at 1240 W Fourth St (the Property) for agricultural purposes to enable community-supported healthy eating, active living, and education initiatives. The term of the Agreement is through October 1, 2028, with an additional five-year term option.

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)
Encourage, Provide or Support Enhanced Recreational, Educational, Cultural and Healthy City Programs, Policies and Activities
FISCAL IMPACT:

The City shall pay for the maintenance of utility lines and water meter to the site for the life of the Agreement and pay for electric utility, water utility and waste disposal service for the Property which are included in the FY 2023-24 Annual Operating Adopted Budget. Caramel Connections will be responsible for any other capital improvements and ongoing maintenance costs associated with the day-to-day functions of the community garden.

BACKGROUND & ANALYSIS:

On October 20, 2020, the City Council authorized a Community Garden Use Agreement with Caramel Connections to create a new community garden at Anthony Munoz Hall of Fame Park for three years. Due to the success of this community garden project, the Recreation & Community Services Department recommends the City enters into an Agreement with Caramel Connections to continue the partnership of a community garden at Anthony Munoz Hall of Fame Park.

38 Throughout the development and operations of this community garden, Caramel Connections has created thirty community gardening plots; built community through volunteers and stewards who support the maintenance and operations of the community garden; acquired grant funding to develop the space; and created new programming initiatives and educational opportunities for Ontario residents to enjoy. The community garden will remain open seven days a week during daylight hours. Caramel Connections may extend the hours for special events.

To ensure continued development, Staff recommends the City enter into a new Agreement for five years, with an option to renew for another five-year term. The longer-term Agreement will help Caramel Connections secure continued grant funding in the future. 39 Department: Recreation & Community Services

AUTHORIZE THE PURCHASE OF AN X-TREME NINJA COURSE WITH GREENFIELDS

OUTDOOR FITNESS FOR JOHN GALVIN PARK

CITY OF ONTARIO
Agenda Report
October

SECTION:

CONSENT CALENDAR

RECOMMENDATION:

That the City Council authorize the cooperative purchase of an X-Treme Ninja Course with Greenfields Outdoor Fitness for John Galvin Park in the amount of $578,640 plus a 10% contingency of $57,864 to mitigate any unforeseen issues with supply chain surcharges and manufactory price increases for a total not-to-exceed contract amount of $638,504 from Greenfields Outdoor Fitness, of Anaheim, California, consistent with the terms and conditions of the Sourcewell Cooperative Contract No. 010721-GRN.

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 Fiscal Year 2023-24 Adopted Budget includes appropriations from the Capital Projects-Measure Q funds for the purchase of an X-Treme Ninja Course from Greenfields Outdoor Fitness for John Galvin Park. The total cost of the fitness equipment recommended for purchase is $636,504, funded by Measure Q. $250,000 was approved in the Fiscal Year 2023-24 Adopted Budget; however, additional funding is needed due to the increased cost of rubberized surfacing and a shade canopy. The Recreation & Community Services Department was awarded a National Recreation & Parks Association (NRPA) 2022-Ninja Grant in the amount of $40,000, which is included in the total cost. If approved, the additional funding will come out of the Recreation & Community Services and Community Life & Culture Agency budget.

BACKGROUND & ANALYSIS:

The X-Treme Ninja Course is a fitness obstacle course that will be the first of its kind in the City of Ontario and the region. X-Treme Ninja Course 3 (Exhibit A) has 20 features and is Greenfields Outdoor Fitness' most challenging course. The selected course is also the longest the vendor offers and is designed in an S-shape. Some features include the rock wall for building grip strength, spider walk for core strength, and a finish wall to culminate the course with a spectacular finish. The selected fitness equipment vendor is Greenfields Outdoor Fitness. 40 In general conformation with the provisions of Government Code Section 54201 through 54204, Ontario Municipal Code Section 2-6.29 allows for the purchase of supplies and equipment through cooperative purchasing programs. Cooperative purchasing allows the City to pool its procurement power with other public agencies to obtain lower pricing than otherwise might be possible.

On August 28, 2023, the Recreation & Parks Commission approved the design for the X-Treme Ninja Course by Greenfields Outdoor Fitness to be installed at John Galvin Park with a vote of 6-0 and recommends that the City Council authorize the cooperative purchase. 41 Exhibit A

A PUBLIC HEARING REGARDING AN ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT SUBSIDY REPORT

AND OPERATING COVENANT AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE CITY OF ONTARIO AND

RUSNAK/ONTARIO DBA GENESIS OF ONTARIO AND CONSIDERATION OF

RESOLUTION

CITY OF ONTARIO
Agenda Report
October
3, 2023
SECTION:

PUBLIC HEARINGS

RECOMMENDATION:

That the City Council take the following actions:

A
.

Adopt a resolution accepting the Economic Development Subsidy Report prepared pursuant to Government Code Section 53083.1 regarding an Operating Covenant Agreement (on file with the Records Management Department) with Rusnak/Ontario dba Genesis of Ontario; B
.

Adopt a resolution approving the Operating Covenant Agreement and authorizing the City Manager or his designee to execute the Agreement; and
C
.

Direct City Staff to file a Notice of Exemption based upon the City Council’s finding that the impacts for this Agreement is not a project and subject to environmental review and that there is no possibility that the activity in question may have a significant effect on the environment.

THE FOLLOWING COUNCIL GOALS ARE BEING ACHIEVED:

Invest in the Growth and Evolution of the City's Economy Operate in a Businesslike Manner
Focus Resources in Ontario's Commercial and Residential Neighborhoods FISCAL IMPACT:

Pursuant to the terms of the proposed Operating Covenant Agreement (Agreement), the payment between the City and Genesis of Ontario is calculated based on Genesis's sales tax revenue during a computation quarter in an amount equal to the sum of fifty percent (50%) of the local sales tax revenue received in excess of $100,000 for years 1 through 4 and $125,000 for years 5 through 8.

Per the Economic Development Subsidy Report, the City anticipates that the operation of the Dealership will result in:
43 $17,848,355 in sales tax to the City over 8 years commencing upon the effective date of the Agreement, and the total amount of the expenditure of pubic funds as a result of the economic development subsidy will not exceed $800,000 over the 8-year-term. General Fund appropriations will be included in the quarterly budget update following the first computation quarter.

BACKGROUND & ANALYSIS:

The Bradley-Burns Uniform Local Sales and Use Tax Law authorizes counties and cities to impose local sales and use taxes in conformity with the Sales and Use Tax Law. The City of Ontario receives one percent (1%) of all taxable sales generated within the City under this law. Sales and Use Tax revenues are an important source of revenue for the City, which are used to provide essential City services, such as police, fire, and infrastructure maintenance and community facilities.

Genesis of Ontario is an automobile retailer seeking to open a new dealership in the City of Ontario. They have identified a suitable property to locate their dealership at 2100 Inland Empire Blvd., Ontario, CA 91762. The operation of Genesis of Ontario within the City will result in the retention of jobs, allow for the potential increase in job opportunities, foster a business and civic environment that may attract additional businesses, investments and further increase the jobs/housing balance in the City. The automobile retailer will be staffed with 37 full-time employees. The automobile retailer location is used for sales, meetings, display of merchandise, managerial meetings and other sales functions.

In light of the benefits Genesis of Ontario will have
on the community, Staff recommends an Operating Covenant Agreement to incentivize Genesis of Ontario to operate in the City.

 Genesis is a highly successful auto dealership who will be committed to maintaining the auto dealership in the City of Ontario which will ensure the retention and creation of jobs and provide opportunity for additional job growth throughout the term of this Agreement; and
 Entering into this Agreement and retaining the auto dealership may attract additional businesses and investment in the community due to increased services and economic activity in the area; and
45  Retaining this business within the City will create jobs, maintain economic diversity in the community and stimulate the economic recovery of the Inland Empire by generating new opportunities for economic growth within the region; and  Retaining Genesis' operations within the City will generate substantial revenue for the City, allow for the retention of jobs, and result in community and public improvements that might not otherwise be available to the community for many years; and

WHEREAS, all other legal prerequisites to the adoption of this Resolution have occurred.

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of Ontario as follows:

SECTION 1. Incorporation of Recitals. The foregoing recitals are true and correct, and are incorporated herein and made an operative part of this Resolution.

SECTION 2. Findings.

SECTION 3. CEQA. The City Council hereby finds that pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act ("CEQA") (Pub. Res. Code, § 21000 et seq.) and the State CEQA Guidelines (Cal. Code Regs, tit. 14 § 15000 et seq.), approval of the Agreement and acceptance of the Economic Development Subsidy Report is not a "project" for purposes of CEQA and therefore is not subject to CEQA review. The Agreement and acceptance of the Economic Development Subsidy Report is not a project pursuant to State CEQA Guidelines section 15378(b)(4), which states that government fiscal activities which do not involve any commitment to any specific project which may result in a potentially significant environmental impact are not subject to CEQA. Further, the Agreement and acceptance of the Economic Development Subsidy Report is not a project under State CEQA Guidelines section 15061(b)(3), which states that CEQA does not apply where it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the activity in question may have a significant effect on the environment.

In addition, the City Council will direct staff to file a categorical exemption with the County of San Bernardino for this location upon adoption of this Resolution. 46 SECTION 4.

SECTION 6. Effective Date. This Resolution shall become effective immediately upon its adoption.

The City Clerk of the City of Ontario shall certify as to the adoption of this Resolution.

PURSUANT TO GOVERNMENT CODE SECTION 53083

FOR OPERATING COVENANT AGREEMENT

BY AND BETWEEN

CITY OF ONTARIO

AND RUSNAK/ONTARIO

D/B/A GENESIS OF ONTARIO
Pursuant to Government Code Section 53083, the City Council of the City of Ontario must hold a noticed public hearing and, prior to the public hearing, provide all of the following information in written form and available to the public and through the City’s website, regarding a proposed economic development subsidy to be provided by the City pursuant to an Operating Covenant Agreement (“Agreement”) by and between the City of Ontario (“City”) and Rusnak/Ontario, a California corporation, d/b/a Genesis of Ontario. Notice was published in the local newspaper for a public hearing to be held on October 3rd, 2023.

The purpose of this report is to provide the information required pursuant to Government Code Section 53083 in regard to the Agreement. This report shall remain available to the public and posted on the City’s website until the end date of the economic development subsidy, as further described in number 2 below.

1. The name and address of all corporations or any other business entities, except for sole proprietorships, that are the beneficiary of the economic development subsidy.

The Agreement is with Rusnak/Ontario, a California corporation, d/b/a Genesis of Ontario (“Company”).

Rusnak/Ontario
77 St. John Avenue
Pasadena CA 91105

2. The start and end dates and schedule, if applicable, for the economic development subsidy.

The start date of this subsidy will occur only if the Operating Covenant Agreement is approved by the Ontario City Council, and will remain active for no more than 8 years after the effective date of the Operating Covenant Agreement.

3. A description of the economic development subsidy, including the estimated total amount of the expenditure of public funds by, or of revenue lost to, the local agency as a result of the economic development subsidy.

Company has requested from the City assistance for the operation costs associated with the a permanent full-service new Genesis automobile sales dealership in Ontario (“Dealership”) in an amount equal to fifty percent (50%) of all sales tax revenue above $100,000 annually for years 1-4 and $125,000 annually for years 5-8 that is generated by the Dealership for a period of up to eight (8) years, or a maximum amount of eight 50 hundred thousand dollars ($800,000), subject to the limitations set forth in the Operating Covenant Agreement.

4. A statement of the public purposes for the economic development subsidy.

The economic development subsidy will ensure that the Dealership plans to be and remain open for business within the City for a period of not less than 8 years.

The City has determined that Company’s operation of the Business results in substantial benefits to the City and its citizens including, without limitation, the creation of significant new numbers of employment opportunities, property tax revenues, sales tax revenues and other ancillary benefits. Accordingly, the City has also determined that its entry into this Agreement serves a significant public purpose, while providing only incidental benefits to a private party.

Further, the covenanted operation of the Dealership serves the additional public purpose of fostering a business and civic environment that may attract additional businesses and investment in the community due to the availability of the increased public and private services and economic activity resulting therefrom, thereby assisting the City in its goal of furthering the development of the community. This Agreement furthers the policies of the City to be business friendly and support economic growth including meeting the goals of the Economic Development Element of the General Plan. The Economic Development Element calls upon the City to align its energies to realize the following goals of its Economic Development Strategy:
 Facilitate development projects within the community;  Enhance the City’s tax base;
 Promote job creation throughout the community;
 Plan and encourage economic development along the City’s major transportation corridors;
 Operate as an “ombudsman” to promote and facilitate economic development; and
 Take a proactive role in regional economic development issues.

5. The projected tax revenue to the local agency as a result of the economic development subsidy.

The City anticipates that the operation of the Dealership will result in:
$17,848,355 in sales tax to the City over 8 years (contract term) $42,000 increase in property taxes received by the City $ 287,120 in business license tax to the City over 8 years (contract term) Additionally, the presence of auto dealership customers in town will result in additional patronage of other businesses in the City thereby creating additional sales tax generation. 51 6.

A PUBLIC HEARING TO CONSIDER AN AMENDMENT TO THE ONTARIO

DEVELOPMENT CODE, UPDATING REGULATIONS FOR THE SHORT-TERM RENTAL

OF PROPERTY IN THE CITY AND ESTABLISHING FEES FOR SHORT TERM RENTALS

CITY OF ONTARIO
Agenda Report
October
3, 2023
SECTION:

PUBLIC HEARINGS

RECOMMENDATION:

That the City Council introduce, waive the first reading of an Ordinance amending subsections C, D, and I of Section 5.03.363 of the Ontario Development Code, relating to regulations of short-term rentals and approve the fee resolution for short-term rentals.

THE FOLLOWING COUNCIL GOALS ARE BEING ACHIEVED:

Operate in a Businesslike Manner
Focus Resources in Ontario's Commercial and Residential Neighborhoods FISCAL IMPACT:

Stricter regulation of short-term rental operations pursuant to the Ontario Development Code may result in increased collection of permit fees and administrative fines, which are payable to the City. Staff does not anticipate any increased enforcement cost on the staffing side, as current staffing levels support the need for stricter regulation.

BACKGROUND & ANALYSIS:

While short term rentals provide options to the traveling public and income to the affected host property owner or tenant, they can also impact the community. Over the past few years, there has been an increase in the number of properties in the City being offered on websites such as Airbnb, VRBO, and Homeaway. In December 2022, the City Council adopted Ordinance No. 3235, adding a new Section 5.03.363 to the Ontario Development Code to regulate short-term rentals in the City. The regulations adopted at that time:

Established a requirement that operators obtain a short-term rental permit from the City; Set forth the process for permit applications, investigations, issuance, expiration, renewal, and revocation;
Created an appeals procedure for aggrieved applicants;
Established a series of operating requirements for short-term rentals, including limiting the locations where short-term rentals may be located (most residential zones, the Mixed-Use – Downtown zoning District and the Ontario Center Specific plan area, including Piemonte 53 Overlay area, and within Planned Unit Development areas that are located within the Ontario Plan (Policy Plan) Mixed-Use – Downtown land use designation—see Exhibits A and B to this staff report);
Established a series of requirements applicable to hosting platforms such as Airbnb and VRBO; and
Clarified the City’s procedures for enforcement of violations of the Ordinance.

The proposed updates to Section 5.03.363 will make minor updates to how the City processes permit applications; allow for short-term rental permit applications to be filed while the applicant is awaiting a pending business license; and clarify the limited areas of the City in which short-term rentals are allowed (all areas not specifically named in the Ordinance will not allow for short-term rentals). The proposed fee resolution establishes the fee for the short-term permit.

CONCLUSION:

Staff and the City Attorney recommend approval for the first reading of the attached Ordinance Amendment and adoption of the Fee Resolution and will be available to answer questions or provide further information as the City Council may desire. 54 55

BACKGROUND & ANALYSIS:

1. Oversized Vehicle Parking and Adoption of OMC Section 4-6.1020

On December 20, 2022, the City Council passed and adopted Ordinance No. 3231, adding Section 4-

6.1020 to the Ontario Municipal Code to specifically address oversized vehicle parking on public streets. Since its adoption, the Ontario Police Department has found that OMC Section 4-6.1020 has inadvertently made certain large family sized vehicles (e.g. Chevrolet Suburban, Ford Excursion, Toyota Sequoia, etc.) subject to the prohibitions and enforcement of Section 4-6.1020 of the Ontario Municipal Code.

Consequently, an amendment of Section 4-6.1020 of the Ontario Municipal Code is necessary to correct this unintended result.

Oversized vehicles shall include all buses, truck tractors, semitrailers, motor trucks, trailers, campers, camp trailers, house cars, trailer coaches, and other equipment or machinery, regardless or width, length, or height.

Notwithstanding the length, width, and height requirements for an oversized vehicle, the following vehicles shall also be considered oversized vehicles subject to the prohibitions contained in § 4-6.1020(a) of this article:
67 (i) Buses as defined in the California Vehicle Code; (ii) Trailers, including boat trailers, and semitrailers, as these are defined in the California Vehicle Code, and standalone boats not connected to trailers; (iii) Trailer coaches as defined in the California Vehicle Code; and (iv) Recreational vehicles as defined in this article.” SECTION 3.
