ONTARIO BUSINESS ASSISTANCE LOAN PROGRAM GUIDELINES AND

CITY OF ONTARIO
Agenda Report
April 15, 2025
SECTION:

CONSENT CALENDAR

RECOMMENDATION:

That the City Council approve the adoption of the Ontario Business Assistance Loan Program Guidelines; and authorize the City Manager, or his designee, to make any necessary adjustments and execute all necessary documents to implement the loan program.

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:

The Ontario Business Assistance Loan Program will consist of forgivable loans of up to $150,000 to eligible business owners within the program area. If approved, budget requests will be submitted to City Council for approval, as needed.

BACKGROUND & ANALYSIS:

To encourage the continued development of Downtown Ontario and to incentivize tenants to fill vacant, sometimes historic, commercial space with unique and successful food and beverage operations, the City has developed a program to attract non- franchise independent restaurant and bar operators to a designated area of Downtown Ontario, as described in the program guidelines. These operations will help develop Downtown Ontario to a thriving 18-hour, regional attraction. While there are many prospective restauranteurs interested in opening a brick-and-mortar location in Downtown, a leading impediment is the high cost to outfit buildings with the required tenant improvements needed for grease traps, ventilation and other kitchen equipment, patios, and more. Market rate prices to outfit restaurants and bars is roughly $75 per square foot.

The City has developed a Program that can help solve for that problem, and lead to the attraction of more quality food and beverage businesses in Downtown. Through this program, the City may in its sole and complete discretion, enter into a "Business Assistance Loan Agreement" ("Loan 26 Agreement") for loans of up to $150,000 to business owners who provide evidence of leases, or are the property owner, within the Program area. The Loan Agreement, secured by a promissory note, will be written down 20 percent each year the business remains open and in good standing with the City. After five years, the loan will be forgiven, and the promissory note removed. Should the recipient not stay in their location for the full 5-years, the amount remaining will be owed to the City of Ontario. If unable to pay the remaining loan balance, any fixtures funded by the loan such as restaurant/kitchen equipment and/or furniture may be used to write down the remaining loan amount. At the time of default and termination of the agreement, said fixtures will be assessed for their fair market value and will become property of the City to utilize at their discretion.

In order to proceed with the implementation of this Program, guidelines need to be adopted. The guidelines contain the details of the eligibility requirements, amount of and type of financial assistance offered, eligible costs, application, and procurement and award processes. While this program is written with the intent on supporting Downtown businesses, the guidelines allow for the expansion of the geographic area as funds become available. Staff recommends that the City Council adopt both the Business Assistance Loan Program guidelines and Loan Agreement to further the goal of revitalizing Downtown Ontario and creating a destination for the community. 27 RESOLUTION NO. ________

AMENDMENT TO THE DOWNTOWN ONTARIO RESTAURANT AND BREWERY

EQUIPMENT REBATE PROGRAM

CITY OF ONTARIO
Agenda Report
April 15, 2025
SECTION:

CONSENT CALENDAR

RECOMMENDATION:

That the City Council approve the amendment to the Downtown Ontario Restaurant and Brewery Equipment Program; and authorize the City Manager and/or his designee to execute any documents related to this program.

THE FOLLOWING COUNCIL GOALS ARE BEING ACHIEVED:

Invest in the Growth and Evolution of the City's Economy Operate in a Businesslike Manner
FISCAL IMPACT:

The Fiscal Year 2024-25 Adopted Budget includes $60,000 in appropriations to fund this program.

BACKGROUND & ANALYSIS:

To encourage the continued development of Downtown Ontario and to incentivize tenants to fill vacant commercial space with sustainable business, the City has developed a program to attract non-franchise and non-chain independent restaurants, wineries, craft breweries and/or distilleries to a designated area of Downtown Ontario.

The proposed amendment to the program allows the City in its sole and complete discretion to enter into a “Restaurant/Brewery Rebate Program Loan Agreement” (Attachment A) for loans of up to $20,000 to business owners who provide evidence of leases within the Program area for which they have made qualifying purchases of certain capital equipment. Currently, this program allows for loans of up to $10,000 to qualified applicants. Through this amendment, the City will increase the total allotment to $20,000 in an effort to provide a stronger incentive package for prospective restaurateurs, breweries, and wineries looking to locate in Downtown Ontario. To date, the program has seen great success in supporting new and existing business owners including Mule Car Smokehouse, Mestiza Coffeehouse, and Strum Brewery to name a few. The amendment does not alter the existing program boundaries of Downtown Ontario, as detailed in the guidelines, but does provide the City Manager and/or his designee, at their sole discretion, to adjust those boundaries based upon the fluid priority of Economic Development. 60 The balance of the loan will be reduced by 20% each year if the Borrower has remained in business at the qualifying location. If the Business remains at the qualifying location for five years, the loan shall be cancelled, and the promissory note returned to the Borrower as paid in full. Should a recipient not stay in their location for the full 5 years, the amount remaining will be owed to the City of Ontario. Economic Development Agency staff will review all applications to ensure equipment is a qualified purchase, but may include purchase of commercial freezers, range, fermenters, walk-in cooler.

In order to proceed with the implementation of the program, the amended program guidelines need to be adopted. The program guidelines contain the details of the eligibility requirements, amount and type of financial assistance offered, eligible improvements, application, and procurement and award processes. Staff recommends that the City Council adopt the Downtown Ontario Equipment Rebate Program Guidelines, to further the goal of revitalizing downtown and creating a destination for the community.

CITY OF ONTARIO
Agenda Report
April 15, 2025
SECTION:

CONSENT CALENDAR

RECOMMENDATION:

That the City Council approve and authorize the City Manager or designee to execute the various Professional Services Agreements for special tax consulting, community facilities district formations and costs associated with bond issuances. Proposed agreements are with Goodwin Consulting Group of Sacramento, California; Willdan Financial Services of Temecula, California; Orrick, Herrington & Sutcliffe, LLP of Los Angeles, California; Empire Economics, Inc. of Capistrano Beach, California; and Kitty Siino and Associates of Tustin, California.

THE FOLLOWING COUNCIL GOALS ARE BEING ACHIEVED:

Ensure the Development of a Well Planned, Balanced, and Self-Sustaining Community in Ontario Ranch
Operate in a Businesslike Manner
FISCAL IMPACT:

There is no fiscal impact to the General Fund with the proposed Professional Services Agreements. Special tax consulting services, community facilities district formations and costs associated with bond issuances will be funded with special tax revenues, developer deposits, or bond proceeds. Agreements will be for a term of three years, with an optional renewal period of two additional years. The three-year collective compensation for the proposed agreements is a not- to-exceed amount of $2,546,000. At the City's discretion to exercise the two additional years, the not-to-exceed amount is $4,538,830.

BACKGROUND & ANALYSIS:

The City administers the following Parkway Maintenance Districts and Street Lighting Maintenance Districts located within Old Model Colony providing landscaping and street lighting maintenance services:

Parkway Maintenance District No. 1 (includes 6 maintenance areas) Parkway Maintenance District No. 2 (includes 6 maintenance areas) 91 Parkway Maintenance District No. 3 (includes 15 maintenance areas in zone 1 and 3 maintenance areas in zone 2)
Parkway Maintenance District No. 4 (includes 6 maintenance areas) Street Lighting Maintenance District No. 1 (includes 2 zones) Street Lighting Maintenance District No. 2 (includes 12 maintenance areas) In addition, Staff is responsible for the administration of sixty community facilities districts mostly located in Ontario Ranch. The administration of special districts involves managing operations, finances, services and compliance, requiring specialized expertise provided by consultants.

Furthermore, with the expected continued growth in Ontario Ranch and potential projects in the Old Model Colony the City will need to continue community facilities district formations, bond financing, and other related services to fund municipal services and public infrastructure.

Therefore, it
is recommended that the City secure the services of experienced consultants specializing in these areas.

In December 2024, the City solicited three requests for proposals for Special Tax Consulting and Administrative Services; Community Facilities District Formation and Bond Counsel Services; and Appraisal and Housing Market Economist Services. The City received a total of thirteen proposals and Staff evaluated each proposal based on experience, staff qualifications, high quality of past performance with the City, and competitiveness of fees. Staff has selected and recommends awarding the following professional services agreements:

Special Tax Consulting and Administrative Services
Community Facilities District Formation - Goodwin Consulting Group of Sacramento, CA Maintenance Districts - Willdan Financial Services, of Temecula, CA

Community Facilities District Formation and Bond Counsel Services Orrick, Herrington & Sutcliffe, LLP of Los Angeles, CA

AN AMENDMENT TO THE CONSTRUCTION CONTRACT WITH G.M. SAGER CONSTRUCTION INC. FOR ON-CALL AND EMERGENCY UTILITY TRENCH PAVING

SERVICES

CITY OF ONTARIO
Agenda Report
April 15, 2025
SECTION:

CONSENT CALENDAR

RECOMMENDATION:

That the City Council approve and authorize the City Manager, or designee, to execute Amendment No. 2 to the On-Call Services Contract with G.M. Sager Construction Inc., of Pomona, California, for On-Call and Emergency Utility Trench Paving services for a revised total not- to-exceed aggregate amount of $2,035,170 and a term from September 6, 2022 through June 30, 2026.

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 2024-25 Budget includes appropriations from the Water and Sewer Operating Fund for these on-call services. Additional appropriations will be included in the respective fiscal year. There is no impact to the General Fund.

Proposed Amendment No. 2 will increase the existing Contract amount by $211,600 for a total revised Contract aggregate amount of not-to-exceed $2,035,170. Actual expenses will be based on actual work performed.

BACKGROUND & ANALYSIS:

The Contract for repair and repaving of utility trenches throughout the City is essential for maintaining safe and functional roadways following planned and emergency water and sewer repairs. Due to increases in the size of necessary repairs associated with utility trench site requirements, the overall cost of trench repairs has increased. Added costs include additional traffic control measures and the depth of a trench. A funding adjustment to effectively continue providing current and anticipated services is required.

This Contract provides for the repair and repaving of utility trenches at various locations 200
throughout the City on an as-needed basis. The work performed under this Contract consists of trench repairs associated with work performed by Staff on water main and residential services, sewer mains, and various water
facilities. Trench repairs are coordinated with the Contractor following utility work to minimize disruption within the public right-of-way.

In June 2022, the City solicited bids for On-Call and Emergency Utility Trench Paving, and six bids were received through the City's electronic bid management system in response to Bid No. 1541, OMUC Contract No. UT-1068. City Council approved the Contract on September 6, 2022.

Staff recommends approval of Amendment No. 2
to the On-Call Services Contract with
G.M. Sager Construction 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 and has the ability to perform the work in a timely manner. 201

APPROVAL OF A SOLE SOURCE PURCHASE TO PROVIDE A CUSTOM DESIGNED

DRONE SHOW FOR TWO ANNUAL EVENTS

CITY OF ONTARIO
Agenda Report
April 15, 2025
SECTION:

CONSENT CALENDAR

RECOMMENDATION:

That the City Council approve Grizzly Entertainment, LLC of Palm Springs, CA as the sole source vendor to provide a custom designed drone show for the annual Independence Day and Holiday Tree Lighting celebrations.

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 2024-25 Operating Budget includes appropriations in the General Fund related to the production of the Independence Day and Holiday Tree Lighting shows. The approval of a sole source vendor to provide a custom designed drone show for the annual Independence Day and Holiday Tree Lighting celebrations does not commit the City to any specific level of future expenditures with this vendor. Future expenditures for the vendor will not exceed the Recreation & Community Services Department's operating budget established by the City Council.

BACKGROUND & ANALYSIS:

The Recreation & Community Services Department hosts free annual celebrations for Independence Day and the Holiday Tree Lighting, bringing the community together to celebrate. These events feature several entertainment elements, including a 10-minute drone show and attract over 25,000 spectators each year.

The drone operator is responsible for providing
all pre-production services, music production and choreography, FAA licensing, and a specialized crew. Due to the high level of expertise required, strict safety regulations, and the City's insurance compliance standards, including FAA insurance, only a limited number of vendors in the region can provide this service.

Ontario Municipal Code Section 2-6.23(b) and 2-6.23(c) authorizes the Purchasing Officer to make 205
purchases without following the standard purchasing procedures whenever (1) the goods can be obtained from only one source, and/or (2) a breakdown in machinery, equipment, or an essential services which requires immediate purchase of supplies and equipment to protect public health, safety, and welfare generates circumstances that a competitive bid would thus be undesirable, impractical, or impossible.

Grizzly Entertainment has successfully completed five events with the City since October 2023.

These events include the Trunk or Treat Event in both October 2023 and 2024, the Holiday Tree Lighting Event in December 2023 and 2024, and the Fireworks Spectacular Event in July 2024.

Staff recommends the approval of this vendor as a Sole Source based on their specialized services and previous experience providing services for the City of Ontario. 206

A RESOLUTION FOR PLACEMENT OF SPECIAL ASSESSMENTS ON THE SAN

BERNARDINO COUNTY TAX ROLLS

CITY OF ONTARIO
Agenda Report
April 15, 2025
SECTION:

CONSENT CALENDAR

RECOMMENDATION:

That the City Council adopt a Resolution for recovery of fees and costs incurred in abating property and dangerous building violations, as well as administrative citations and civil penalties associated with property maintenance violations and placing assessments on the San Bernardino County Tax Rolls.

THE FOLLOWING COUNCIL GOALS ARE BEING ACHIEVED:

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

The levy of special assessments will result in the recovery of $37,122.36 in costs that the City has expended for inspection or abatement of property violations, as well as the collection of $12,740.00 associated with civil penalties and/or fines for continued violations, for a total of $49,862.36 related to 92 parcels. When received, these reimbursements will be deposited into the General Fund. The special assessment revenue is included in the Fiscal Year 2024-25 Budget.

BACKGROUND & ANALYSIS:

The City has established administrative citations and fines for property maintenance violations and fees and penalties associated with the Systematic Health and Safety Inspection Program, Abandoned and Distressed Property Program, and Weed and Refuse Abatement Program. These costs, fines, fees, and penalties are recovered through placement of special tax assessments upon the properties. The placement of special assessments and collection of revenue is done under Ordinance 3046, Property Appearance (Title 5, Chapter 22 of the Ontario Municipal Code); Chapter 9 of the Uniform Code for the Abatement of Dangerous Buildings; and Ordinance 2920 for civil penalties for continued violations of the Ontario Municipal Code and fines associated with administrative citations (Title 1, Chapters 2 and 5 of the Ontario Municipal Code).

The City and County currently have a contractual agreement regarding the implementation of special assessments; however, a Resolution authorizing the placement of the specific assessments is required. During this assessment cycle, the Community Improvement Department has billed property owners for: the abatement of violations; the issuance of fines associated with administrative citation; the issuance of fees and penalties associated with the Systematic Health 227
and Safety Inspection Program; the issuance of registration fees and civil penalties associated with the Abandoned and Distressed Property Program; the issuance of notice and re-inspection fees; and, civil penalties for the Weed and Refuse Abatement Program on 186 parcels. Of these, there are remaining amounts due on 92 parcels. Attached are itemized accounts that include: 1) costs associated with inspection or abatement as shown in Exhibit A of the Resolution; 2) civil penalties and/or fines for continued violations as shown in Exhibit B of the Resolution; and 3) total amounts per parcel as shown in Exhibit C of the Resolution. All affected property owners were given notice of the imposition of special assessments via certified mail as provided in Ontario Municipal Code Section 1-4.05(a) and have either not requested an appeal or have exhausted the appellate procedure in Ontario Municipal Code Section 1-4.05(b).

BACKGROUND & ANALYSIS:

The City operates a total of nineteen active groundwater production wells. Water produced from these wells requires onsite disinfection before being introduced into the City’s water distribution system for customer use. The City utilizes onsite sodium hypochlorite generator (OSCG) units
from De Nora (formerly “Miox”) to generate a chlorine disinfection solution.

This solution is then introduced into the water using a Prominent brand injection pump system (distributed by D&H Water Systems) at all production wells.

At six of the active groundwater production well sites, the water disinfection equipment has reached its maximum useful life and requires replacement. To ensure safe and reliable operations while streamlining the maintenance process, the City will purchase the replacement water disinfection equipment and spare parts. Installation will either be completed by Staff and/or a proposed future construction contract. This proactive measure ensures operational reliability and preparedness for emergency situations by mitigating supply chain delay issues.

To enhance operational efficiency and reduce maintenance complexity, Staff has standardized the water disinfection equipment used at active well sites. This approach has established a cost- effective routine maintenance program and supports a consistent operation and maintenance training program for City Staff, ensuring they can efficiently manage and maintain the equipment.

Per Section 2-6.23 (b) and (c) of the Ontario Municipal Code, non-competitive sole-source purchases are permitted when only one procurement source exists, or when competitive bidding would be impractical, unavailing, or would not produce an advantage. While there is one other alternative OSCG system on the market, this system is completely incompatible with the existing equipment already in use at the well sites. De Nora is the exclusive distributor in California for their OSCG equipment. D&H Water Systems is the exclusive distributor in California for the injection pump system manufactured by ProMinent. On July 17, 2024, the City entered into a sole source Goods and Equipment Agreement with D&H Water Systems to provide replacement parts for groundwater well maintenance; the contract value was for $35,156. Given these factors, the City has determined that a sole source procurement approach is the most practical and cost-effective solution.

Staff have reviewed pricing and recommend the sole source awards to De Nora Water Technologies, LLC and D&H Water Systems.

Progress payments for the Goods will be made by City upon proper application by Supplier during th e progress of the Goods and according to the terms of payment as specified in Exhibit “B.” Supplier’s progress billing invoice will include progress payments due for the original scope of work and changes. Each “Item for Payment” shown in Exhibit “B” and each change order will be itemized on the invoice. Invoices for cost plus work, whether part of Exhibit “B” or a change order, must have subcontractor and/or supplier invoices attached to Supplier’s invoice. Other format and support documents for invoices will be determined by City in advance of the first invoice cycle.

C. Payments otherwise due may be withheld by City, with prior notice to Supplier, on account of defective Goods not remedied, liens or other claims filed, reasonable evidence indicating probable filing of liens or other claims, failure of Supplier to make payments properly to its subcontractors or for material or labor, the failure of Supplier to perform any of its other obligations under the Agreement, or to protect City against any liability arising out of Supplier’s failure to pay or discharge taxes or other obligations. If the causes for which payment is withheld are removed, the withheld payments will be made promptly. If the said causes are not removed within a reasonable period after written notice, City may remove them at Supplier’s expense.

D. Payment of the final Progress Milestone payment or any retention will be made by City upon:

If any person refuses to furnish an actual release or receipt in full, Supplier may furnish a bond satisfactory to City to indemnify City against any claim or lien at no cost to City.

E. Acceptance by Supplier of payment of the final Progress Milestone payment pursuant to Section 7.D will constitute a waiver, release and discharge of any and all claims and demands of any kind or character which Supplier then has, or can subsequently acquire against City, its successors and assigns, for or on account of any matter or thing arising out of, or in any manner connected with, the performance of this Agreement. However, payment for the final Progress Milestone by City will not constitute a waiver, release or discharge of any claims or demands which City then has, or can subsequently acquire, against Supplier, its successors and assigns, for or on account of any matter or thing arising out of, or in any manner connected with, the performance of this Agreement.

F. Automated Clearing House (“ACH”) payments. It is the City’s policy to pay its consultant invoices via electronic fund transfers through the ACH network.

Each Party shall undertake any and all required actions and execute any required documents, instruments, or agreements required to effectuate the requirements of this Section. In the event the City erroneously deposits funds into an account, or otherwise deposits funds to which Supplier is not entitled: (1) Supplier shall immediately notify the City and the financial institution; (2) Supplier shall not withdraw any of the funds which were erron eously deposited or to which Supplier is not entitled; and (3) Supplier authorizes both the City and financial institution to take all actions necessary to correct the error and return to the City all funds erroneously deposited or to which Supplier is not entitled.

Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to be inconsistent with this relationship or status.

All employees, agents, contractors or subcontractors hired or retained by the Supplier are employees, agents, contractors or subcontractors of the Supplier and not of City.

Section 11. SUBCONTRACTS.

Unless otherwise specified, Supplier must obtain City’s written permission before subcontracting any portion of the Goods. Except for the insurance requirements in Section 13.A, all subcontracts and orders for the purchase or rental of supplies, materials or equipment, or any other part of the Goods, will require that the subcontractor be bound by and subject to all of the terms and conditions of the Agreement. No subcontract o r order will relieve Supplier from its obligations to City, including, but not limited to Supplier’s insurance and indemnification obligations. No subcontract or order will bind City.

EUCLID RECYCLED WATER PROJECT
AND WELL 50 TREATMENT FACILITY WITH THE UNITED STATES ARMY CORPS OF

CITY OF ONTARIO
Agenda Report
April 15, 2025
SECTION:

CONSENT CALENDAR

RECOMMENDATION:

That the City Council adopt a Resolution authorizing the City Manager, or his designee, to negotiate and execute all related project documents, including applications, agreements, project certifications and project-related documents with the United States Army Corps of Engineers (USACE), to design and construct the Euclid Avenue Recycled Water Project and the Well 50 Ion Exchange Treatment Facility.

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 no impact to the General Fund. The USACE received $200,000 of Federal funding (appropriations) through a project submitted by Congresswoman Norma J. Torres to support City projects authorized under the Water Resources Development Act (WRDA). Of this funding, $25,000 will be allocated to preparing project partnership agreements. There is a cost-share element that requires the City fund 25% of project costs, and all costs for associated work not included in the project partnership agreements. Upon execution of the project partnership agreements, the remainder of the grant funds will be applied to the 75% of other project costs.

Beyond the initial $200,000 appropriation, annual allocations will be solicited through the City’s United States Congressional District Office for approval and inclusion into the Federal budget. These funds will cover 75% of the USACE’s continuing work, with the City contributing the remaining 25%. Total project costs are estimated to be $26 million over the next five years for the Euclid Avenue Recycled Water Project and $6 million for Well 50 Treatment Facility, for a total of $31 million. The City’s 25% cost-share responsibility of the estimated total would be $7.75 million.

As a requirement, the City will annually request additional WRDA funding based on upcoming increments of work. The City’s annual financial commitment will be dependent on the annual Federal appropriations authorized by USACE for these projects. The City’s cost-share portion will be appropriated from the Water 295
Capital Fund in future Quarterly Budget Update Reports to the City Council.

BACKGROUND & ANALYSIS:

WRDA is a comprehensive legislative package that provides for the conservation and development of water and related resources. It authorizes the Secretary of the Army, through the Assistant Secretary of the Army for Civil Works, to conduct studies, construct projects, and conduct research activities that can improve the rivers and harbors of the United States. However, WRDA serves only as authorizing legislation and does not provide direct funding. The funding of WRDA- authorized studies and projects is provided separately through the annual Energy and Water Development appropriations process and, at times, through supplemental appropriations. Federal funds are budgeted to USACE for 75% of the applicable project costs. The City is responsible for the remaining 25% of applicable project costs, cost overruns, and other costs required to support the project, such as State-specific environmental reviews, project related costs, including engineering, administrative, bidding, and construction tasks.

The City’s adopted 2020 Urban Water Management Plan (UWMP) identifies recycled water as a key component of Ontario’s plan for ensuring a long-term sustainable water supply. Recycled water is approved for use by the California State Water Resources Control Board - Division of Drinking Water for irrigation and industrial applications. One such initiative is the Euclid Avenue Recycled Water Project, which is included in the Capital Improvement Program. This project will develop a network of transmission and distribution main pipelines to deliver recycled water for irrigating street corridors, schools, parks, and other community development spaces. The project area is bounded by Baker Avenue to the East, James Bryant Park and D Street to the North, Oaks Street to the West, and Centennial Park to the South.

The UWMP also identifies groundwater as the City’s largest individual water source. To protect this resource and meet the growing potable water demands in Ontario Ranch, existing Well No. 50 – which is currently inactive due to perchlorate contaminant approaching the state’s Maximum Contaminant Level – must be restored through treatment.

To support these efforts, the Euclid Recycled Water Project and Well 50 Ion Exchange Treatment Facility Project were submitted by Congresswoman Norma J. Torres for consideration under WRDA. In 2024, the City was notified that the projects had been authorized, with $200,000 of the requested funding budgeted to USACE to begin the work in fiscal year 2024-2025. Under a Federal arrangement, USACE is responsible for managing all work associated with the project. The City will act as a partner and owner of the projects, ensuring the final product meets City standards through collaboration with USACE. The City will also submit annual requests to Federally fund USACE work on future increments of work associated with each project, which may require separate project agreements in compliance with USACE policies and procedures. Upon project completion, USACE will turn over the new facilities to the City for operation and maintenance.

Upon execution of the initial project agreement, USACE can begin work on the Euclid Recycled Water Project. Adoption of the attached resolution will further authorize the City Manager or his designee to review, negotiate, and execute resulting agreements and amendments with USACE to obtain funding for the full scope of the Euclid Recycled Water Project and the Well 50 Ion Exchange Treatment Facility. 296

AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF ONTARIO, CALIFORNIA,

LEVYING SPECIAL TAXES WITHIN CITY OF ONTARIO COMMUNITY FACILITIES DISTRICT NO. 73 (WILDFLOWER ACRES)

CITY OF ONTARIO
Agenda Report
April 15, 2025
SECTION:

CONSENT CALENDAR

RECOMMENDATION:

That the City Council consider and adopt an Ordinance authorizing the levy of special taxes within City of Ontario Community Facilities District No. 73 (Wildflower Acres).

THE FOLLOWING COUNCIL GOALS ARE BEING ACHIEVED:

Operate in a Businesslike Manner
Focus Resources in Ontario's Commercial and Residential Neighborhoods Ensure the Development of a Well Planned, Balanced, and Self-Sustaining Community in Ontario Ranch
FISCAL IMPACT:

The use of Mello-Roos financing in the Wildflower Acres residential development is projected to generate approximately $445,357 per year, at build-out, to fund administrative fees and municipal services; and approximately
$17.7 million in bond proceeds to be used to fund a
portion of the public infrastructure improvements needed to serve the project. Mello-Roos bonds are not a direct obligation of the City and are paid from special taxes levied on each taxable parcel in the District; therefore, there is no fiscal impact to the General Fund from the issuance of Mello- Roos bonds. City Council approval will be required to process annual special tax levies in future years.

BACKGROUND & ANALYSIS:

The Mello-Roos Community Facilities Act of 1982 (the Act) provides local government, with the consent from a majority of the property owners, the authority to establish community facilities districts for the purpose of levying special taxes to finance various public infrastructure facilities and to fund municipal services.

At a public hearing conducted by the City Council on April 1, 2025, the City Council adopted a Resolution of Formation of Community Facilities District No. 73 (Wildflower Acres); authorized the levy of a special tax; established an appropriations limit of the Community Facilities District; and called a special election for the Community Facilities District. On that date, an election was held in 301
which the qualified electors of the Community Facilities District approved said proposition by more than the two-thirds vote required by the Act. Adoption of the proposed ordinance to authorize the levy of special taxes within the Community Facilities District will conclude the formation process for the City of Ontario Community Facilities District No. 73 (Wildflower Acres).

The Wildflower Acres is a residential project development that is approximately 31.18 gross acres located north of Eucalyptus Avenue, west of Hamner Avenue, east of Clifton Avenue, and south of Ontario Ranch Road. At build-out, the project is expected to include a total of 333 residential units, comprised of 177 single-family units and 156 attached units. 302

SECTION:

CONSENT CALENDAR

RECOMMENDATION:

That the City Council take the following actions:

A
.

Authorize the City Manager, or his designee, to execute Change Order No. 2 to the Construction Contract with Philbin Construction Company, of Laguna Niguel, California for the debris removal and fine grading of Ontario’s Grand Park Phase 1 in the amount of $11,990,790 for a total contract amount of $17,420,243 plus a contingency of $2,409,507 to address any unforeseen issues that may arise during the demolition for a total not-to-exceed contract amount of $19,829,750; and
B

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
Focus Resources in Ontario's Commercial and Residential Neighborhoods FISCAL IMPACT:

The recommended Change Order No. 2 to the Construction Contract with Philbin Construction Company is in the amount of $11,990,790 plus a contingency of $2,409,507 for a total not-to-exceed contract amount of $19,829,750. If approved, appropriations in the Park Impact Fund will be requested at future quarterly budget updates to the City Council for approval as needed.

307
BACKGROUND & ANALYSIS:

On December 21, 2021, the City Council approved the conceptual "Grand Park" Master Plan and the Preliminary Park Design for Phase 1. Phase 1 builds upon the framework established in the Conceptual Park Master Plan and is comprised of approximately 130 acres of land and occurs within the eastern portion of Ontario Ranch. This phase is bordered by Grand Park Street to the north, Eucalyptus Avenue to the south, Haven Avenue on the east and Archibald Avenue on the west. This portion of the park contains meadows, trails, and a multi-use field that also functions as a stormwater capture system. Day one core park amenities are proposed in the center of this phase, which include a Market Alley designed for farmers markets, food trucks, and community events. There are plans for a community barn and farm hub, Kids’ Corral (a children’s playground), and a 5,000 capacity amphitheater along the central plaza.

Ontario’s Grand Park is anticipated to be operational by Summer of 2027.

On October 15, 2024, City Council awarded a Construction Contract to Philbin Construction Company for the mass grading of Ontario’s Grand Park. During the grading, buried concrete and trash were found 15 feet below the surface which needs to be removed immediately. The recommended Change Order No. 2 with Philbin Construction Company includes the removal of debris and completion of fine grading of the project site.

Because this change order relates to latent subsurface conditions which are not amenable to competitive bidding, and because the Contract Documents ensure that compensation for latent subsurface conditions is compensated at fair and reasonable rates, this change order is authorized by law notwithstanding its magnitude.
