SUBJECT: Allocation of Property Program Loss Limits and Deductibles
Should there be any discrepancy between this policy and procedure and either the JOINT POWERS AGREEMENT or BYLAWS, the JOINT POWERS AGREEMENT or BYLAWS shall govern.
PURPOSE:
This policy and procedure addresses the settlement of claims through the CSURMA Property Coverage Program in the event more than one MEMBER ( Campus or AUXILIARY ORGANIZATION MEMBER) is involved in an occurrence ( aka: loss event) which triggers the “Loss Limits”.
The CSURMA Property Program includes certain maximum amounts that the excess insurer / reinsurer is liable to pay for covered losses; these maximum amounts are known as "Loss Limits." The “Loss Limits” are shared by all MEMBERS of the CSURMA Property Coverage Program. For example, available “Loss L imits” could be exhausted in the following situations:
A single MEMBER has a loss in excess of the “Loss Limits”. More than one MEMBER are involved in the same loss event resulting in total payable claims in excess of the “Loss Limits”.
A series of unassociated loss events during the policy term involve more than one MEMBER resulting in total payable claims in excess of the “Loss Limits”.
POLICY:
In the event the Property coverage “ Loss Limits” involve more than one MEMBER, the EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE shall determine the allocation of the “ Loss Limits” upon the recommendation of CSURMA’s Treasurer and its Secretary-Auditor, whose recommendation may include consideration of the following:
1. The aggregate “Loss Limits” available for the loss event;
2. The Total Loss incurred by each MEMBER involved in the loss event;
3. The Aggregate Loss of all MEMBERS involved in the loss event;
4. The Total Insurable Value (TIV) of Damaged Locations Only of each member involved in the loss event;
5. The Aggregate TIV of Damaged Locations Only of all members involved in the loss event;
6. The TIV for All Covered Locations of each member involved in the loss event;
7. The Aggregate TIV for All Covered Locations of all members involved in the loss event;
22 245
CSURMA POLICY AND PROCEDURE NO. 26
8. Any other factor or factor s that CSURMA’s Treasurer, Secretary -Auditor and EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE may consider to be pertinent in its determination of what it considers to be a fair allocation of the “Loss Limits”.
In any loss event where it appears the “L oss Limits” may require allocation among two or more MEMBERS, the EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE shall be, and is, empowered to instruct the excess insurer / reinsurer concerning the manner in which claims of affected MEMBERs shall be paid so as to achieve the objectives required by this policy and procedure. However, in exercising this power, the E XECUTIVE COMMITTEE shall give due consideration to the needs of affected MEMBERS for expeditious administration and prompt payment of their claims, and payment of proper claims shall not be unduly delayed because of the application of this policy and procedure.
If in any case, a MEMBER should receive payment (s) for claim or claims which exceed, in the aggregate, the amount to which the MEMBER is entitled, the MEMBER shall promptly refund the excess funds to CSURMA for redistribution in accordance with this policy and procedure.
DEFINITIONS:
“Auxiliary Organization” shall mean an organization described in California Education Code § 89901 et seq. , which is on the approved list of Auxiliary Organizations of the University Chancellor’s Office.
“Executive Committee” shall mean the Executive Committee of the CSURMA Board of Directors.
“Loss Limits” shall mean the maximum amount the excess insurer / reinsurer is liable to pay for covered losses; the aggregate amount of insurance payable under the CSURMA Property Coverage Program for damages to real and personal property covered by the program.
“Member” shall mean the signatory to the CSURMA Joint Powers Authority.
“TIV” refers to total insurable value, meaning property values reported by the MEMBER to CSURMA and included on the CSURMA Property Coverage Program property schedule.
“Deductibles” shall mean the maximum amount the MEMBER is liable to pay for covered losses.
In the event two or more buildings are damaged by the same loss (or occurrence), and a different deductible applies to the buildings (i.e., at least one building is covered by Campus 99 at a lower deductible), the applicable deductible shall apply to each building as if a separate policy was issued to each, and the aggregate deductible for all buildings damaged by the same occurrence shall be the largest single deductible that is applicable to the loss.

SECTION:
CONSENT CALENDAR
RECOMMENDATION:
That the City Council adopt a Resolution approving additional Fire Department classifications to the terms and conditions for Fire Department responses to the California Fire and Rescue Mutual Aid System requests to assist State of California and Federal Fire agencies.
THE FOLLOWING COUNCIL GOALS ARE BEING ACHIEVED:
Maintain the Current High Level of Public Safety
Pursue City's Goals and Objectives by Working with Other Governmental Agencies FISCAL IMPACT:
There is not a direct fiscal impact associated with this action. Approval of the proposed Resolution will ensure the City's Fire Department recovers the maximum amount of reimbursable costs when assigned to emergency incidents through the mutual aid system.
BACKGROUND & ANALYSIS:
The intent of the California Fire Assistance Agreement (CFAA) is to compensate California Fire and Rescue Mutual Aid System Agencies for the cost of assisting the State of California and Federal Agencies. In 2015, it was established that, to be reimbursed from time of initial dispatch from their home base to the time of return to home base (portal-to-portal), a MOU/MOA, governing body Resolution or equivalent document must be on file with the Office of Emergency Services (Cal OES). Without this agreement, reimbursement would be for actual hours worked while on the incident.
Previously adopted Resolutions approved the following classifications as eligible for portal-to-portal reimbursement and to respond to out-of-jurisdiction incidents. In 2015, Resolution No. 2015-039 approved the positions of Fire Chief, Senior Deputy Chief, Deputy Fire Chief, Battalion Chief, Fire Captain, Fire Engineer, Firefighter and Nurse Administrator. In 2022, Resolution No. 2022-011 added the classifications of Fire Administrative Director, Emergency Manager, Fire Communications Manager, Fire Dispatch Supervisor, Senior Fire Dispatcher and Fire Dispatcher. In 2024, Resolution No. 2024-063 added the classifications of Administrative Officer, Senior Management Analyst, Management Analyst, Emergency Medical Services ("EMS") Director, and EMS Nurse.
247
The Fire Department is requesting to add the following classifications to be eligible for portal-to- portal reimbursement and to respond to out-of-jurisdiction incidents in various administrative and support roles: Chief Deputy, Senior Administrative Assistant, Administrative Assistant, Administrative Technician, Community Information Specialist, Community Information Supervisor, Emergency Management Coordinator, and Senior Public Safety Business Analyst. 248

SECTION:
CONSENT CALENDAR
RECOMMENDATION:
That the City Council authorize the City Manager, or his designee, to execute Amendment No. 1 to the Software License Agreement with Safe Software, Inc., of Surrey, British Columbia, Canada, for the City’s Geographic Information System (GIS) integration processes, increasing the authorized contract amount by $190,000, for a total contract not-to-exceed amount of $270,000 and extend the term for five years.
THE FOLLOWING COUNCIL GOALS ARE BEING ACHIEVED:
Operate in a Businesslike Manner
FISCAL IMPACT:
The Fiscal Year 2024-25 Adopted Budget includes appropriations from the Information Technology Fund for software licensing with Safe Software, Inc. The proposed Amendment No. 1 to the Software License Agreement increases the contract amount by $190,000 which includes $30,000 for FY25/26, $35,000 for FY26/27, $40,000 for FY27/28, $40,000 for FY28/29 and $45,000 for FY29/30 for a five-year term and contract not-to-exceed amount of $270,000. The Fixed billing rates specified in the current Agreement will determine the amount charged for services and reflect the actual services provided. If approved, appropriations will be included in the future years’ budgets consistent with the annual adoption process presented to City Council.
BACKGROUND & ANALYSIS:
The City has been leveraging the power of Safe Software’s Feature Manipulation Engine (FME) to streamline its data management processes since October 2022. FME is a cutting-edge data integration tool that allows users to design, automate, and maintain data transfer procedures easily. The ability to efficiently extract, load, and manipulate data is critical in an increasingly data-driven world. With FME, the City has successfully addressed these challenges, particularly in managing and transferring GIS data.
The FME product offers an intuitive interface and a powerful set of features that enable the seamless integration of disparate systems. Whether it’s automating the data flow between databases, transforming data formats, or ensuring that essential information is always up-to-date, FME has proven itself to be an indispensable tool for the City. FME's flexibility and scalability also 253
ensure that it can grow with the City’s evolving data needs.
Not only has FME enabled the City to reduce manual processes, but it has also enhanced operational efficiency by automating many critical data transfer and manipulation tasks. This has allowed the City departments to focus more on their core operations, knowing that the data systems work in the background without requiring constant intervention.
Staff request City Council
approval for a not-to-exceed contract amount of $270,000 and an additional five-year term ending November 2030.

SECTION:
CONSENT CALENDAR
RECOMMENDATION:
That the City Council authorize the City Manager, or his designee, to execute Amendment No. 4 to the Professional Services Agreement with TruePoint Solutions, LLC., of Loomis, California, for ongoing service and support for the Accela Civic Platform increasing the authorized contract amount by $300,000 for a total contract not-to-exceed amount of $950,000 and extend the term for three years, with an additional two optional years.
THE FOLLOWING COUNCIL GOALS ARE BEING ACHIEVED:
Operate in a Businesslike Manner
FISCAL IMPACT:
The Fiscal Year 2024-25 Adopted Budget includes appropriations from the Information Technology Fund for Professional Services. The proposed Amendment No. 4 to the Professional Services Agreement increases the authorized contract by $300,000 for a not-to-exceed contract amount of $950,000 and extends the Agreement to an additional three-year term and an optional two-year term. The fixed billing rates specified in the current Agreement will determine the amount charged for services and reflect the actual services provided. If approved, appropriations will be added to the future years’ budgets consistent with the annual adoption process.
BACKGROUND & ANALYSIS:
The City first contracted with TruePoint Solutions, LLC, in 2009 to support the implementation of Accela, the City’s Land Management System. This partnership was key in integrating Accela into the City’s operations, enabling the efficient management of land use processes such as planning, permitting, and inspections. The Accela platform provided a centralized solution, streamlining the City’s permit application and review workflow and improving overall service delivery.
The City signed a one-year Professional Services Agreement with TruePoint Solutions, LLC, in 2019 to enhance and support the Accela system. As the City's operational needs expanded, TruePoint Solutions, LLC was re-engaged to provide ongoing specialized expertise. To further ensure the system met the City’s evolving needs, the Professional Services Agreement was amended with Amendments 1, 2, and 3, extending the support Agreement through 2023 and 2025, respectively.
These Amendments included increases to the not-to-exceed amounts of $400,000 in 2023 and 256
$650,000 in 2025.
TruePoint Solutions continues to provide specialized expertise and excellent support for Accela on an as-needed basis. Moreover, support from TruePoint Solutions allows the City to automate processes, improve self-service options for residents and developers, and ensure the timely implementation of changes to the City's land management Ordinances in the land management system.
Staff is requesting City Council approval for a five-year extension of the Agreement with a not-to- exceed amount of $950,000. This extension will ensure the City continues to receive the necessary support to keep the Accela system running smoothly and meeting the community's needs. 257

A PLANNED UNIT DEVELOPMENT
(FILE NO. PUD24-002) FOR A DEVELOPMENT
PLAN TO CONSTRUCT 144-UNIT MULTIPLE-FAMILY RESIDENTIAL APARTMENT
COMPLEX
CITY OF ONTARIO
Agenda Report
May
6, 2025
SECTION:
CONSENT CALENDAR
RECOMMENDATION:
That the City Council adopt an Ordinance approving a Planned Unit Development, File No. PUD24-002, establishing development standards and guidelines to facilitate the development of a 144-unit residential apartment project.
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:
There is not a direct fiscal impact associated with this action.
BACKGROUND & ANALYSIS:
On April 15, 2025, the City Council introduced and waived further reading of an Ordinance Approving the Planned Unit Development. The Ontario Plan 2050 (TOP 2050) and associated Environmental Impact Report analyzed and established guidelines for development of the Project site, which is within the Mixed Use - Holt Boulevard Land Use designation, and that
approval of a Planned Unit Development (PUD) is required for new developments.
On November 14, 2022, the Ontario Housing Authority and Applicant, National CORE, entered into an Exclusive Negotiating Agreement regarding the potential development of an affordable housing development known as Vista Verde II, a multiple-family apartment complex. In continuation of the process, on December 17, 2024, the City Council approved a Disposition and Development Agreement (DDA) and Grant Agreements with the Applicant to facilitate the development of the subject affordable housing development.
On December 13, 2024, the Applicant submitted applications for a Planned Unit Development (File No. PUD24-002) to establish development standards and regulations for the Holt + Allyn Planned Unit Development area and Development Plan (File No. PDEV24-028) to facilitate the construction of 144-unit multiple-family affordable housing development. 267
On February 25, 2025, the Planning Commission adopted a Resolution recommending the City Council approve the Planned Unit Development. The Planning Commission backup is attached to this report.
The Project site is 5.73 acres and located near the northeast corner of East Holt Boulevard and Allyn Avenue, within the MU-6 (East Holt Mixed Use) zoning district and currently vacant.
The Project site
is surrounded by residential uses, commercial uses, and vacant land. The Project site is also located along the SBCTA West Valley Connector route on Holt Boulevard.
The Holt + Allyn Planned Unit Development (PUD) will facilitate the future construction of the 144- unit affordable housing development.
Consistent with TOP 2050, t
he PUD allows for a residential
density range of 14.0 to 40.0 du/ac, and the related Development Plan proposes a 4-story apartment community with a density of 25.1 du/ac. The proposed PUD also includes reduced parking ratio requirements that reflect the needs of households that are anticipated to reside there.
In addition, the Applicant states that vehicle parking will be actively managed and monitored as part of its property management operations.
Overall, t
he proposed PUD will establish development standards and design guidelines that promote projects that are consistent with TOP 2050, establish a sense of place and identity along the Holt Boulevard Corridor, and achieve high-density residential developments while maintaining high quality design and construction.
AIRPORT LAND USE COMPATIBILITY PLAN (ALUCP) COMPLIANCE:
T
he City Council has reviewed
and considered the facts and information contained in the Application and supporting documentation against the ONT ALUCP compatibility factors, including [1] Safety Criteria (ONT ALUCP Table 2-2) and Safety Zones (ONT ALUCP Map 2-2), [2] Noise Criteria (ONT ALUCP Table 2-3) and Noise Impact Zones (ONT ALUCP Map 2-3), [3] Airspace protection Zones (ONT ALUCP Map 2- 4), and [4] Overflight Notification Zones (ONT ALUCP Map 2-5). As a result, the City Council finds and determines that the Project, when implemented in conjunction with the conditions of approval, will be consistent with the policies and criteria set forth within the ONT ALUCP.
HOUSING ELEMENT COMPLIANCE:
The Project is consistent with the Housing Element of the Policy Plan (General Plan) component of The Ontario Plan. The Project site is one of the properties listed in the Housing Element Sites contained in Tables B-1 and B-2 (Housing Element Sites Inventory) of the Housing Element Technical Report. The Housing Element Sites Inventory designates the site for 108 units in the very low/low-income category; however, the proposed Project includes 144 units in the very low/low-income category, exceeding the originally anticipated number. The Housing Element Sites Inventory will be amended to reflect this change.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW:
The Project is exempt from the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to Section 15183 (Projects Consistent with a Community Plan or Zoning) of the CEQA Guidelines. The Project qualifies for an exemption because the following findings can be made:
1 .
The Project is consistent with the development density established by existing zoning, community plan or general plan policies for which an EIR was certified. 2 .
There are no Project specific effects which are peculiar to the Project or its site, and which the 268
TOP 2050 Supplemental EIR failed to analyze as significant effects. 3 .
There are no potentially significant off-site and/or cumulative impacts which the TOP 2050 Supplemental EIR failed to evaluate.
4 .
There is no substantial new information which results in more severe impacts than anticipated by the TOP 2050 Supplemental EIR.
5 .
The Project will undertake feasible mitigation measures specified in the TOP 2050 Supplemental EIR.

with the Applicant to facilitate the development of the subject affordable housing development.
On December 13, 2024, in association with the DDA, the Applicant submitted applications for a Planned Unit Development (File No. PUD24 -002) to establish development standards and regulations for the Holt + Allyn Planned Unit Development area and Development Plan (File No. PDEV24 -028) to facilitate the development of the proposed 144-unit multiple-family affordable housing development.
On February 19, 2025 , the Development Advisory Board conducted a public hearing regarding File No. PDEV24 -028 and adopted a Decision recommending the Planning Commission approve the Development Plan.
PROJECT SETTING: The Project site consists of 5.73 acres of land located near the northeast corner of East Holt Boulevard and Allyn Avenue, approximately 140 feet east of the intersection, within the MU -6 (East Holt Mixed Use) zoning district, which is depicted in Exhibit A: Project Location Map . The Project site encompasses five vacant parcels located at 905, 935, 947 and 957 East Holt Blvd. The parcels were previously developed with commercial and residential uses.
The Project site is surrounded by residential uses, commercial uses, and vacant land. The Project site is also located along the SBCTA West Valley Connector route on Holt Boulevard, the improvements of which are under construction (see Exhibit G: Site Photos).
The existing surrounding land uses, zoning, and Policy Plan (general plan) and specific plan land use designations are summarized in Table 1: Surrounding Zoning & Land Uses.
PROJECT ANALYSIS:
(1) Planned Unit Development (File No. PUD24-002)
The Applicant is proposing the Holt + Allyn Planned Unit Development (PUD) to facilitate the construction of the 144 -unit affordable housing development. The purpose and objective of the PUD is to establish development and design guidelines that would promote development projects that are consistent with TOP 2050, establish a sense of place and identity along the Holt Boulevard Corridor, provide a connection between the Downtown Mixed-Use area and the Ontario Airport Metro Center, achieve high -density residential developments while maintaining high quality design and construction, and encourage clustering of structurers to preserve the maximum amount of continuous open space.
A PUD is comparable to a Specific Plan in that it sets development regulations that are unique to a specific area. On the other hand, it is unlike a Specific Plan in that a PUD is typically intended to apply to a single development project or several interrelated projects that would function as a single, comprehensive project.
271
Planning Commission Agenda Report
File Nos.: PUD24-002 & PDEV24-028
February 25, 2025
(a) Land Use and Development Regulations — Consistent with the requirements of the MU-6 (East Holt Mixed Use) zoning district, the Holt + Allyn PUD allows for residential uses at a density of 14.0 to 40.0 du/ac. Non-residential uses are generally allowed within the MU-6 (East Holt Mixed Use) zoning district. However, this particular PUD area primarily anticipates residential uses, as an affordable housing development, and that any nonresidential uses would be ancillary and supportive in nature to the residential use.
In alignment with development standards and existing and future development in the area, the maximum building height allowed in the PUD is 50 feet. The building setback requirements are 0 FT from Holt Boulevard, 5 Ft from interior property lines, and 10 FT between parking spaces and living areas. Building-to-building separation requirements are a minimum 15 FT. These proposed standards are compatible with the TOP 2050 vision for the Mixed Use – Holt Boulevard area as a corridor and connection to other parts of the City.
(b) Architectural Character — As all sides of buildings will be visible from the public street, common access drives, common parking areas or adjacent parcels, the PUD requires that the architectural treatments be carried around to all sides of the buildings, providing full 360 -degree architecture. Furthermore, all towers and raised elements will be finished on all sides to appear as three -dimensional features, and buildings will feature articulated walls with offsets of at least two feet in depth. In addition, the PUD promotes the use of enhanced materials, such as precast concrete or tile, for use as base treatments and to highlight architectural features.
(c) Landscaping and Drainage — A conceptual landscape plan is required to be submitted with the Development Plan application. Broad canopy shade trees are to be used to reduce heat gain on buildings, paving and parking areas. The PUD also requires the use of drought-tolerant plant materials and a water efficient irrigation system with weather -based controllers. Furthermore, landscape areas may incorporate vegetated swales for storm water infiltration and retention basins or dry wells as may be needed. Overall, projects within the PUD area are expected to provide landscap ing designs that enhance the project aesthetics and outdoor experiences for residents, employees and visitors.
(d) Off-Street Parking and Circulation —
(i) Parking – The parking requirements within the PUD account for multiple factors including recent legislation, best practices in the region, affordable housing component, and proximity to transit. Parking requirements are summarized in Table 3: Parking Summary.
Previous studies of households within affordable housing developments have supported the conclusion that the parking needs in an affordable housing project are less than market-rate projects. In addition, existing projects within the City, including Vista Verde I, 272
Planning Commission Agenda Report
File Nos.: PUD24-002 & PDEV24-028
February 25, 2025
were developed with reduced parking requirements and no concerns about parking supply have been identified.
(ii) Access – The PUD specifies that primary project access to the site will be provided at a central, gated vehicular access point from Holt Boulevard. A secondary driveway for emergency vehicle access will also be provided near the west boundary of the PUD/project area.
(iii) Circulation – The PUD provides for safe vehicular and pedestrian circulation throughout the project site by promoting separate pedestrian and vehicular paths and drives.
(iv) Access to Mass Transit – Existing bus stops are located on Holt Boulevard for Omnitrans Route 61, with nearby transfer stops for Routes 83, 87 and 380 .
Additionally, the future West Valley Connector Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) line which is currently under construction on Holt Boulevard, will provide additional transit options for the public.
(2) Development Plan (File No. PDEV24-028)
(a) Site Design/Building Layout — The Project site is irregular in shape and spans approximately 630 FT wide, along Holt Boulevard, and between 304 FT to 476 FT deep.
The Project site comprises five parcels, which will require a subdivision or lot line adjustments to combine the parcels into one. The Project is designed with two four-story apartment buildings containing a total of 144 dwelling units. Each building will offer floor plans with 1, 2, and 3 bedrooms and 1 to 2 bathrooms. The 1- Bedroom units are 512 SF and 513 SF, the 2- Bedroom units are 750 SF and the 3 -Bedroom units are 1,009 SF and 1,023 SF in area (see Table 4: Dwelling Unit Statistics) . The overall density of the Project is
25.1 dwelling units/acre (du/ac), which complies with the TOP 2050 density range of 14.0 to 40.0 du/ac.
Building A, Building B, and the common open space amenities are located in the south portion of the Project site and parking lot areas are located in the north portion (see Exhibit C: Site Plan) . The buildings are setback between 20 FT and 30 FT from Holt Boulevard. The parking lot comprises uncovered parking spaces, carports and landscaped areas. The Project’s main entrance is located between Buildings A and B and will be gated. Another gated access point is located in the southwest corner of site and is designated for emergency ingress and egress.
Building A is located on the southwest section of the Project site and is configured in a U- shape, with the west, east and south sections of the building connected by open air walkways at each floor. Building A will have 91 dwelling units and will also inc lude management offices, a mail room, bicycle parking, a laundry facility, recreation room computer lab, warming kitchen, and flexible activity room. The open central area of 273
Planning Commission Agenda Report
File Nos.: PUD24-002 & PDEV24-028
February 25, 2025
Building A will have community amenities such as a swimming pool with lounge deck and shower facilities, outdoor gym, dog park, picnic tables, parking lot and landscape areas.
Building B is located in the southeast area and is L -shaped. Like Building A, the two sections of the building are connected by open air walkways at each floor. Building B is designed with 53 dwelling units. The open spaces on the east side of the building will provide a children’s playground, teen space and BBQ area, parking lot and storm water detention basin.
(b) Site Access/Circulation — The Project site has multiple pedestrian and vehicular access points. The main vehicular access, which is 58 FT wide, is located on Holt Blvd. between Buildings A and B, a pproximately 500 FT east of the intersection of Holt Avenue and Bon View Avenue/Allyn Avenue. This entry will be gated and is designed with a 24 FT-wide ingress lane, 26 FT-wide egress lane, enhanced paving, and a median planter with a call box. The security gate is l ocated approximately 100 FT from the front property line and the drive lanes have enough width for two vehicles each, which provides ample room for vehicle queueing.
Another gated vehicular access point is located at the southwest corner of the site and is intended for emergency vehicle ingress and egress.
The main interior circulation comprises of the entry drive located between Buildings A and B and the connecting east -west drive that also serves as a fire lane. This east -west drive provides connections to the parking lots and the emergency access lane to the west.
Pedestrian access is provided at multiple points along Holt Boulevard. Each building provides a main entry that is centrally located along the south elevations and are connected to the public sidewalk via walkways. These entries are designed with enhanced paving, seating and bicycle parking. In addition, secondary pedestrian paths are provided near the gated vehicular access points.
In addition, the Project’s location on Holt Boulevard coincides with the West Valley Connector Bus Rapid Transit line currently being constructed by San Bernardino County Transportation Authority. This bus route is designed with dedicated bus lanes to offer faster transit service than previously provided. The Project location is situated between two stops for the West Valley Connector route. One bus stop is located west of the Project, at Campus Avenue and Holt Boulevard, which is 0.3 miles from the proposed Project.
Another bus stop is located east, at Gr ove Avenue and Holt Boulevard, and is 0.4 miles from the Project. Both locations are walking distance and offer convenient and viable transportation options.
(c) Parking — The Project requires 222 vehicle parking spaces as specified in the proposed Holt + Allyn Planned Unit Development, and proposes 224 spaces, which exceeds the minimum parking required for the Project.
274
Planning Commission Agenda Report
File Nos.: PUD24-002 & PDEV24-028
February 25, 2025
The Project will provide 130 covered parking spaces (i.e. carports with solar panels), and 94 uncovered spaces. Each apartment unit will have an assigned parking space and the unassigned spaces will be used for residential, visitor, and staff parking.
All parking spaces will be located behind gates and fencing and will not be readily visible from the Holt Boulevard. The off-street parking calculations for the Project are summarized in Table 3: Parking Summary.
The Project will also provide secure bicycle parking in each building, and outdoor bike racks among the common open space areas.
(d) Architecture — The Applicant has proposed an adaptive Mission -Spanish architectural style (see Exhibit E: Elevations) . The adaptive component of the architectural design incorporates traditional Mission -Spanish design elements while accommodating the 4-story building massing and large street frontage.
Arched thresholds;
S-type clay roofing;
Precast stone cornice and wall base;
Decorative wrought iron details, railings, gates; and Decorative tile.
The south elevation of Buildings A and B are approximately 266 FT and 165 FT wide, respectively, and highly visible from Holt Boulevard. Given the high profile and visibility of the Project, the Applicant has designed these elevations to have visual interest through the use of architectural popouts and step backs, tower elements, arches, wrought iron detail, balconies, trellises, precast st one wall base and cornices, color blocking, and decorative tile. The proposed balcony design, which is also applied throughout the Project interior, incorporates several of these design elements, resulting in an architectural feature that breaks up the building mass and provides visual interest.
(e) Landscaping — The project proposes landscaping throughout the site, including the full length of the Holt Boulevard frontage, project perimeter, off -street parking areas, and throughout the stormwater retention areas (see Exhibit F: Landscape Plan). A variety of planting materials are proposed, including trees, shrubs, grasses, and groundcovers, as follows:
Trees: Marina strawberry, Western redbud, California sycamore, and Coast live oak Shrubs: Powis castle artemisia, Yarrow, Bottle brush little john Grasses: Dear grass, Pine muhly, Reed grass
Ground Covers: Chalk sticks, Alum root hybrid
(f) Open Space/Amenities — Each unit is designed with private open space, as a patio or balcony, and directly accessed from the apartment unit and are approximately 60 SF or larger.
275

February 25, 2025
The associated draft Holt + Allyn Planned Unit Development requires a minimum 15 percent of the total lot area be designed for common open space, which calculates to 37,440 SF. Overall, the Project provides about 46,045 SF of common open space, or 18 percent of the total lot area.
As proposed, the Development Plan offers a variety of common open space areas designed for a range of households and ages. The proposed 5,965 SF pool area at Building A will offer showers, lounge chairs, tables and chairs, benches, and a BBQ grill.
The surrounding area will also include a 1,324 SF outdoor gym and 910 SF fenced pet area. In addition, the passive open space area, which includes landscaping and walkways, provides an additional 10,678 SF of common open space. The open space adjacent to Building B provides a BBQ and Teen Area that is 2,223 SF, a children’s playground area that is 1,662 SF, and a passive open space that is roughly 11,270 SF.
Other passive open space areas include the front yard landscape areas, which total 12,013 SF.
Interior common space areas are also offered. Building A includes a 907 SF activity room, 1,141 SF recreation room, 540 SF conference room, and lounge areas. All common areas are available to all the residents.
(g) Signage — All Project signage is required to comply with sign regulations provided in Ontario Development Code Division 8.1. Prior to the issuance of a Building Permit for the installation of any new on-site signage, the Applicant is required to submit Sign Plans for Planning Department review and approval . Approval of a master sign program is required prior to the issuance of sign permits.
(h) Utilities (drainage, sewer) — Public utilities (water and sewer) are available to serve the Project. Furthermore, the Applicant has submitted a Preliminary Water Quality Management Plan (PWQMP), which establishes the Project 's compliance with storm water discharge/water quality requirements. The PWQMP includes site design measures that capture runoff and pollutant transport by minimizing impervious surfaces and maximizes low impact development (LID) best management practices (BMPs), such as retention and infiltration, biotreatment, and evapotranspiration. The PWQMP proposes the use of a detention basin. Any overflow drainage will be conveyed to the public street by way of parkway drains and culverts.
PUBLIC NOTIFICATION: The subject application was advertised as a public hearing in at least one newspaper of general circulation in the City of Ontario (the Inland Valley Daily Bulletin newspaper). In addition, notices were mailed to all owners of real property located within a minimum of 300 feet of the exterior boundaries of the property that is the subject of the hearing, as shown on the records of the County Assessor.
CORRESPONDENCE: As of the preparation of this Agenda Report , Planning Department staff has not received any written or verbal communications from the owners or 276

occupants of properties surrounding the Project site or from the public in general, regarding the subject application.
AGENCY/DEPARTMENT REVIEWS: Each City agency/department has been provided the opportunity to review and comment on the subject application and recommend conditions of approval to be imposed upon the application. At the time of the Resolution preparation, recommended conditions of approval were provided and are appended to the attached Resolutions as Attachment A.
AIRPORT LAND USE COMPATIBILITY PLAN (ALUCP) COMPLIANCE: The California State Aeronautics Act (Public Utilities Code Section 21670 et seq.) requires that an Airport Land Use Compatibility Plan be prepared for all public use airports in the State; and requires that local land use plans and individual development proposals must be consistent with the policies set forth in the adopted Airport Land Use Compatibility Plan.
On April 19, 2011, the City Council of the City of Ontario approved and adopted the ONT ALUCP, establishing the Airport Influence Area for Ontario International Airport, which encompasses lands within parts of San Bernardino, Riverside, and Los Angeles Cou nties, and limits future land uses and development within the Airport Influence Area, as they relate to noise, safety, airspace protection, and overflight impacts of current and future airport activity. As the recommending body for the Planned Unit Develop ment and the decision-making body for the Development Plan, the Planning Commission has reviewed and considered the facts and information contained in the Application and supporting documentation against the ONT ALUCP compatibility factors, including [1] Safety Criteria (ONT ALUCP Table 2 -2) and Safety Zones (ONT ALUCP Map 2-2), [2] Noise Criteria (ONT ALUCP Table 2-3) and Noise Impact Zones (ONT ALUCP Map 2-3), [3] Airspace protection Zones (ONT ALUCP Map 2-4), and [4] Overflight Notification Zones (ONT ALUCP Map 2-5).
As a result, the Planning Commission finds and determines that the Project , when implemented in conjunction with the conditions of approval, will be consistent with the policies and criteria set forth within the ONT ALUCP.
COMPLIANCE WITH THE ONTARIO PLAN: The proposed Project is consistent with the principles, goals and policies contained within the Vision, Governance, Policy Plan (General Plan), and City Council Priorities components of The Ontario Plan (TOP).

HOUSING ELEMENT COMPLIANCE: The Project is consistent with the Housing Element of the Policy Plan (General Plan) component of The Ontario Plan. The Project site is one of the properties listed in the Housing Element Sites contained in Tables B -1 and B -2 (Housing Element Sites Inventory) of the Housing Element Technical Report. The Housing Element Sites Inventory designates the site for 108 units in the very low/low -income category; however, the proposed Project includes 144 units in the very low/low -income category, exceeding the originally anticipated number. The Housing Element Sites Inventory will be amended to reflect this change.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW: The Project is exempt from the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to Section 15183 (Projects Consistent with a Community Plan or Zoning) of the CEQA Guidelines . The Project qualifies for an exemption because the following findings can be made:
1. The Project is consistent with the development density established by existing zoning, community plan or general plan policies for which an EIR was certified. The Project site is within the Holt Boulevard Mixed Use Area as designated by TOP 2050 and would contain 144 residential units across two buildings. This is consistent with the uses analyzed in the TOP 2050 Supplemental EIR and allowed by the Holt Boulevard Mixed Use Area designation.
2. There are no Project specific effects which are peculiar to the Project or its site, and which the TOP 2050 Supplemental EIR failed to analyze as significant effects.
The subject property is similar to other properties in the area, including its land use designation and zoning. The property does not support any peculiar environmental features, and the Project would not result in any peculiar effects .
The TOP 2050 anticipated the proposed development on the project site and Project impacts were adequately analyzed by the TOP 2050 Supplemental EIR. The TOP 2050 Supplemental EIR identified three environmental impact areas for which mitigation measures were required to reduce potential environmental impacts to a less than significant level: (1) cultural resources; (2) geology and soils; and (3) tribal cultural resources. The proposed project will be required to comply with these mitigations where applicable. The TOP 2050 Supplemental EIR also identified that the TOP 2050 would result in significant and unavoidable environmental impacts that could not be avoided or reduced to less than significant levels through mitigation measures. These include: (1) air quality; (2) cultural resources; (3) noise; (4) transportation. The proposed project will not create additional 284

February 25, 2025
significant or unavoidable impacts that were not already addressed through the TOP 2050 Supplemental EIR.
3. There are no potentially significant off -site and/or cumulative impacts which the TOP 2050 Supplemental EIR failed to evaluate. The Project is consistent with the land use characteristics of the development considered by the TOP 2050 Supplemental EIR and would represent a small part of the growth that was forecasted for build -out of the TOP 2050. The TOP 2050 Supplemental EIR considered the incremental impacts of the Project, and no new Project -specific impacts are anticipated. Therefore, the Project would not result in any potentially significant cumulative impacts which were not previously evaluated in the TOP 2050 Supplemental EIR.
4. There is no substantial new information which results in more severe impacts than anticipated by the TOP 2050 Supplemental EIR . No new information has been identified which would result in a determination that the Project would have a more severe impact than anticipated by the TOP 2050 Supplemental EIR.
5. The Project will undertake feasible mitigation measures specified in the TOP 2050 Supplemental EIR . The Project will undertake feasible mitigation measures specified in the TOP 2050 Supplemental EIR and subsequently adopted by the City.
These TOP 2050 Supplemental EIR mitigation measures will be undertaken through Project design, compliance with regula tions and ordinances, the Project’s conditions of approval, and City permit processing.

SECTION 1: Environmental Determination and Findings. As the recommending authority for the Project, the Planning Commission has reviewed and 303
Planning Commission Resolution
File No. PUD24-002
February 25, 2025
considered the information contained in the administrative record for the Project. Based upon the facts and information contained in the administrative record, including all written and oral evidence presented to the Planning Commission, the Planning Commission finds as follows:
(1) The administrative record has been completed in compliance with CEQA, the State CEQA Guidelines, and the City of Ontario Local CEQA Guidelines; and
(2) The proposed Development Plan is exempt from the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to Section 15183 (Project Consistent with a Community Plan or Zoning) of the CEQA Guidelines and meets all of the following conditions:
(a) The Project is consistent with the development density established by existing zoning, community plan or general plan policies for which an EIR was certified . The Project site is within the Holt Boulevard Mixed Use Area as designated by TOP 2050 and would contain 144 residential units across two buildings.
This is consistent with the uses analyzed in the TOP 2050 Supplemental EIR and allowed by the Holt Boulevard Mixed Use Area designation.
(b) There are no Project specific effects which are peculiar to the Project or its site, and which the TOP 2050 Supplemental EIR failed to analyze as significant effects. The subject property is similar to other properties in the area, including its land use designation and zoning. The property does not support any peculiar environmental features, and the Project would not result in any peculiar effects. The TOP 2050 anticipated the proposed development on the project site and Project impacts were adequately analyzed by the TOP 2050 Supplemental EIR. The TOP 2050 Supplemental EIR identified three environmental impact areas for which mitigation measures were required to reduce potential environmental impacts to a less than significant level: (1) cultural resources; (2) geology and soils; and (3) tribal cultural resources. The proposed project will be required to comply with these mitigations where applicable. The TOP 2050 Supplemental EIR also identified that the TOP 2050 would result in significant and unavoidable environmental impacts that could not be avoided or reduced to less than significant levels through mitigation measures. These include: (1) air quality; (2) cultural resources; (3) noise; (4) transportation. The proposed project will not create additional significant or unavoidable impacts that were not already addressed through the TOP 2050 Supplemental EIR.
(c) There are no potentially significant off -site and/or cumulative impacts which the TOP 2050 Supplemental EIR failed to evaluate. The Project is consistent with the land use characteristics of the development considered by the TOP 2050 Supplemental EIR and would represent a small part of the growth that was forecasted for build-out of the TOP 2050. The TOP 2050 Supplemental EIR cons idered 304
Planning Commission Resolution
File No. PUD24-002
February 25, 2025
the incremental impacts of the Project, and no new Project -specific impacts are anticipated. Therefore, the Project would not result in any potentially significant cumulative impacts which were not previously evaluated in the TOP 2050 Supplemental EIR.
(d) There is no substantial new information which results in more severe impacts than anticipated by the TOP 2050 Supplemental EIR . No new information has been identified which would result in a determination that the Project would have a more severe impact than anticipated by the TOP 2050 Supplemental EIR.
(e) The Project will undertake feasible mitigation measures specified in the TOP 2050 Supplemental EIR . The Project will undertake feasible mitigation measures specified in the TOP 2050 Supplemental EIR and subsequently adopted by the City. These TOP 2050 Supplemental EIR mitigation measures will be undertaken through Project design, compliance with regulat ions and ordinances, the Project’s conditions of approval, and City permit processing; and
(3) The application of the exemption is not barred by one of the exceptions set forth in CEQA Guidelines Section 15300.2; and
(4) The determination of CEQA exemption reflects the independent judgment of the Planning Commission.
SECTION 2: Housing Element Compliance. Pursuant to the requirements of California Government Code Chapter 3, Article 10.6, commencing with Section 65580, as the recommending body for the Project, the Planning Commission finds that based on the facts and information contained in the Application and supporting documentation, at the time of Project implementation, the project is consistent with the Housing Element of the Policy Plan (General Plan) component of The Ontario Plan. The Project site is one of the properties listed in the Housing Element Sites contained in Tables B-1 and B-2 (Housing Element Sites Inventory) of the Housing Element Technical Report. The Housing Element Sites Inventory designates the site for 108 units in the very low/low -income category; however, the proposed Project includes 144 units in the very low/low -income category, exceeding the originally anticipated number. The Housing Element Sites Inventory will be amended to reflect this change.
SECTION 3: Airport Land Use Compatibility Plan ("ALUCP") Compliance.
The California State Aeronautics Act (Public Utilities Code Section 21670 et seq.) requires that an Airport Land Use Compatibility Plan be prepared for all public use airports in the State; and requires that local land use plans and individual development proposals must be consistent with the policies set forth in the adopted Airport Land Use Compatibility Plan.
305
Planning Commission Resolution
File No. PUD24-002
February 25, 2025
(1) On April 19, 2011, the City Council of the City of Ontario approved and adopted the Ontario International Airport Land use Compatibility Plan, establishing the Airport Influence Area for Ontario International Airport, which encompasses lands within parts of San Bernardino, Riverside, and Los Angeles Counties, and limits future land uses and development within the Airport Influence Area , as they relate to noise, safety, airspace protection, and overflight impacts of current and future airport activity. A s the recommending body for the Project, the Planning Commission has reviewed and considered the facts and information contained in the Application and supporting documentation against the ONT ALUCP compatibility factors, including [1] Safety Criteria (ONT ALUCP Table 2 -2) and Safety Zones ( ONT ALUCP Map 2 -2), [2] Noise Criteria (ONT ALUCP Table 2-3) and Noise Impact Zones ( ONT ALUCP Map 2-3), [3] Airspace protection Zones ( ONT ALUCP Map 2- 4), and [ 4] Overflight Notification Zones ( ONT ALUCP Map 2-5). As a result, the Planning Commission therefore finds and determines that the Project, when implemented in conjunction with the conditions of approval, will be consistent with the policies and criteria set forth within the ONT ALUCP; and
SECTION 4: Concluding Facts and Reasons. Based upon the substantial evidence presented to the Planning Commission during the above- referenced hearing, and upon the specific findings set forth in the Sections above, the Planning Commission hereby concludes as follows:
(1) The proposed PUD, or amendment thereto, is consistent with the goals, policies, plans and exhibits of the Vision, Policy Plan (General Plan), and City Council Priorities components of The Ontario Plan 2050 . The proposed Project is located within the Mixed Use – Holt Boulevard land use district of the Policy Plan Land Use Map, and the MU -6 (East Hold Mixed Use) zoning district. The development standards and conditions under which the proposed project will be c onstructed and maintained, is consistent with goals, policies, and exhibits of the Vision, Policy Plan (General Plan), and City Council Priorities components of The Ontario Plan.
(2) The proposed PUD, or amendment thereto, would not be detrimental to the public interest, health, safety, convenience, or general welfare of the City .
The Planning Commission has required certain safeguards, and has required certain changes, which have been established to ensure that: [i] the purposes of the Planned Unit Development are maintained; [ii] the project will not endanger the public health, safety or general welfare; [iii] the project will not result in any significant environmental impacts; [iv] the project will be in harmony with the area in which it is located; and [v] the project will be in full conformity with the Vision, City Council Prio rities and Policy components of The Ontario Plan 2050.
(3) In the case of an application affecting specific property(ies), the proposed PUD, or amendment thereto, will not adversely affect the harmonious relationship with adjacent properties and land uses. A thorough review and analysis 306
Planning Commission Resolution
File No. PUD24-002
February 25, 2025
of the proposed project and its potential to adversely impact properties surrounding the subject site was complete d by City staff. As a result of this review, certain design considerations were incorporated into the project to mitigate the identified impacts to an acceptable level, including the use of the upgraded materials, the inclusion of certain architectural design elements on building exteriors, intensified landscape elements, and decorative hardscape elements.
(4) In the case of an application affecting specific property(ies), the subject site is physically suitable, including, but not limited to, parcel size, shape, access, and availability of utilities, for the request and anticipated development. In preparing the proposed PUD, a thorough review and analysis of the proposed project and the project site’s physical suitability for the proposed project was completed, included analysis of the project size, shape, intensity of development, building height, building setbacks, site access, site landscaping and drainage, fences and walls, vehicle circulation, pedestrian connections, availability of mass transit, necessary street dedication and easements, public right -of-way improvements, availability of utilities and other infrastructure needs, off -street parking and circulation, building orientation and streetscapes, architectural character, building materials and color, and site signage.
(5) The proposed PUD is superior to that which could be obtained through the application of the Development Code or a specific plan. The proposed PUD addresses aspects of the project that are specifically related to the Development Plan proposed in conjunction with PUD application, including necessary building setbacks, site access points, off-street parking and site circulation, and architectural character.

HOLT + ALLYN PLANNED UNIT DEVELOPMENT
5 1. INTRODUCTION
1.1 OVERVIEW
The Holt + Allyn Planned Unit Development (PUD) is intended to function as a set of planning and design principles, development regulations , and performance standards to guide and govern the development of five parcels bounded by Holt Boulevard to the south and residential parcels along Nocta Street to the north and Allyn Avenue to the west [see Exhibit 1-1, Project Location Map]. The project site is envisioned to accommodate a high-quality residential use development on the parcels that face Holt B oulevard. The Holt + Allyn Planned Unit Development (PUD) will replace the existing zone district designations and zoning standards that apply to the affected properties.
Unless otherwise defined herein, definitions and interpretations contained in the Development Code shall apply . City Staff and private developers will rely on this PUD to determine whether precise plans for development (“Development Plans”) will adequately meet the City’s land use and design objectives.
Located near the northeast corner of East Holt Boulevard and North Allyn Avenue, the 5.73-acre site is situated along the Holt Boulevard Corridor and within the East Holt Boulevard Mixed Use Area. Through these designations, the Ontario Plan seeks to encourage the redevelopment of Holt Boulevard into medium-density residential uses integrated with commercial, workplace, and urban facades.

7 2. PROJECT OBJECTIVES
2.1 GENERAL PLAN CONSISTENCY
Within the Ontario Policy Plan (General Plan) the Holt + Allyn PUD site is designated Mixed Use – Holt Blvd. The Ontario Plan describes the Mixed-Use – Holt Blvd designations as “ a low-rise (3-5 stories) intensification of the Holt Corridor. The intent is to create identity and place, connect the corridor to Downtown, and connect the Downtown to the Ontario Airport Metro Center.” Within the community design element, the Policy Plan envisions all corridors to carry unique identities with infill development ; create comfortable, safe, human-scale public real ms, including pedestrian paths, such as sidewalks that provide access to new housing , and meet mobility needs of residents, transit riders, workers and visitors; complete and connect mobility networks for convenient bicycle travel; accentuate the linear nature of the corridor by providing seamless transitions from less intense residential neighborhoods to higher density infill sites; and enable and promote human activity through activated street frontages.
The Holt + Allyn Apartments are consistent with the principles, goals, and policies contained within the components that make up the Ontario Policy Plan, including (1) Vision, (2) Policy Plan, (3) Implementation Programs, and (4) City Council Priorities. The policies implemented by this PUD are as follows:
1. VISION
On February 13, 2007, the Ontario City Council adopted The Ontario Vision . The central them e that motivates the Vision is – “A sustained, community -wide prosperity which continuously adds value and yields benefits.” Everything the City does and every action the City takes is done with 2 N
317
HOLT + ALLYN PLANNED UNIT DEVELOPMENT
8 SECTION 2 I PROJECT OBJECTIVES
this simple yet comprehensive theme in mind, from the design quality of the built environment, to the intent of designing socio -economic programs, to the way in which its leaders govern as a community. In discussing a Vision that would endure for the lifetime of The Ontario Plan (30 years or more), the City Council recognized that there are four components that serve as the basic building blocks that set the foundation for a unified and prosperous community . These foundational blocks must be expressed and widely accepted throughout the Plan’s lifetime. They are:
1. A Dynamic Balance that enables our community to confront the continued vigorous growth of the region and technological change with confidence and a sense of opportunity.
2. A Prosperous Economy that sustains the perception and reality of prosperity across our entire community that positively impacts all the people of Ontario and is broadly – though not uniformly – shared.
3. Distinctive Development that integrates our varied and diverse focal points, districts, villages, and neighborhoods to provide a feeling of coherence without sacrificing uniqueness.

Public right-of-way improvements are required to include but are not limited to the following: street pavement, curb & gutter, parkway landscaping, parkway irrigatio n, raised landscape median with irrigation on Holt Boulevard, public sidewalks, traffic sign age and striping, streetlights, bus stop, bus shelter, and amenities. The extent of the required improvements shall be determined for each development plan. At a minimum, the improvements shall incorporate all items along the street frontages of the properties to be developed with proper transitioning of the entire block frontage if not being installed simultaneously. Improvements along the street frontage for the entire block may be required at the time of the development plan review.
5.6 INFRASTRUCTURE
Water service for the PUD site will be provided by the existing 12-inch water line in Holt Boulevard.
Wastewater flows for the PUD will also be designed to connect to the existing 30-inch sewer line in Holt Boulevard. On-site stormwater drainage facilities shall be provided to capture and infiltrate a 2- year, 1-hour storm event, consistent with the San Bernardino County Stormwater Program’ s Water Quality Management Plan (WQMP) requirements for new development projects . Stormwater capture and infiltration facilities may include the utilization of vegetated swales, depressed landscaped basins, pervious concrete pavement , or underground stormwater detention/retention/infiltration vaults. The existing Master Plan storm drain at Virginia Avenue and Holt Boulevard is built to the ultimate requirement ; consequently, additional storm drain system extensions are not necessary. All building roof and paved area runoff shall be directed into depressed landscaped swales, trenches, or basins, within the development , to comply with the requirement to capture and infiltrate the 2-year, 1-hour storm event runoff. All proposed Development Plans are required to prepare a Preliminary Water Quality Management Plan . All Priority Land Use (PLU) areas shall comply with the statewide Trash Provisions adopted by the State Water Resources Control Board (SWRCB) and trash requirements in the most current San Bernardino County Area-Wide MS4 Permit.
Sewer mains in Nocta St reet and Allyn Ave nue will need to be installed per City Standards and Guidelines to accommodate th e project. All existing unused sewer lines traversing the project site as well as any unused manholes on the project site will be abandoned per the City’s Standards. In instances where sewer lines are abandoned, the PUD requires that any adjacent properties impacted be reconnected to sewer mains along Nocta Street and Allyn Avenue.

NOW, THEREFORE, IT IS HEREBY FOUND, DETERMINED, AND ORDAINED by the City Council of the City of Ontario, as follows:
SECTION 1: Environmental Determination and Findings. As the decision- making body for the Project, the City Council has reviewed and considered the information contained in the administrative record for the Project. Based upon the facts and information contained in the administrative record, including all written and oral evidence presented to the City Council, the City Council finds as follows:
347
(1) The administrative record has been completed in compliance with CEQA, the State CEQA Guidelines, and the City of Ontario Local CEQA Guidelines; and
(2) The proposed Development Plan is exempt from the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to Section 15183 (Project Consistent with a Community Plan or Zoning) of the CEQA Guidelines and meets all of the following conditions:
(a) The Project is consistent with the development density established by existing zoning, community plan or general plan policies for which an EIR was certified . The Project site is within the Holt Boulevard Mixed Use Area as designated by TOP 2050 and would contain 144 residential units across two buildings. This is consistent with the uses analyzed in the TOP 2050 Supplemental EIR and allowed by the Holt Boulevard Mixed Use Area designation. (b) There are no Project specific effects which are peculiar to the Project or its site, and which the TOP 2050 Supplemental EIR failed to analyze as significant effects . The subject property is similar to other properties in the area, including its land use designation and zoning. The property does not support any peculiar environmental features, and the Project would not result in any peculiar effects. The TOP 2050 anticipated the proposed development on the project site and Project impacts were adequately analyzed by the TOP 2050 Supplemental EIR. The TOP 2050 Supplemental EIR identified three environmental impact areas for which mitigation measures were required to reduce potential environmental impacts to a less than significant level: (1) cultural resources; (2) geology and soils; and (3) tribal cultural resources.
The proposed project will be required to comply with these mitigations where applicable. The TOP 2050 Supplemental EIR also identified that the TOP 2050 would result in significant and unavoidable environmental impacts that could not be avoided or reduced to less than significant levels through mitigation measures.
These include: (1) air quality; (2) cultural resources; (3) noise; (4) transportation. The proposed project will not create additional significant or unavoidable impacts that were not already addressed through the TOP 2050 Supplemental EIR.
(c) There are no potentially significant off-site and/or cumulative impacts which the TOP 2050 Supplemental EIR failed to
evaluate. The Project is consistent with the land use characteristics of the development considered by the TOP 2050 Supplemental EIR and would represent a small part of the growth that was forecasted for build-out of the TOP 2050. The TOP 2050 Supplemental EIR considered the incremental impacts of the Project, and no new Project-specific impacts are anticipated. Therefore, the Project would 348
not result in any potentially significant cumulative impacts which were not previously evaluated in the TOP 2050 Supplemental EIR. (d) There is no substantial new information which results in more severe impacts than anticipated by the TOP 2050 Supplemental EIR. No new information has been identified which would result in a determination that the Project would have a more severe impact than anticipated by the TOP 2050 Supplemental EIR.
(e) The Project will undertake feasible mitigation measures specified in the TOP 2050 Supplemental EIR . The Project will undertake feasible mitigation measures specified in the TOP 2050 Supplemental EIR and subsequently adopted by the City. These TOP 2050 Supplemental EIR mitigation measures will be undertaken through Project design, compliance with regulations and ordinances, the Project’s conditions of approval, and City permit processing; and (3) The application of the exemption is not barred by one of the exceptions set forth in CEQA Guidelines Section 15300.2; and
(4) The determination of CEQA exemption reflects the independent judgment of the City Council.
SECTION 2: Housing Element Compliance. Pursuant to the requirements of California Government Code Chapter 3, Article 10.6, commencing with Section 65580, as the decision-making body for the Project, the City Council finds that based on the facts and information contained in the Application and supporting documentation, at the time of Project implementation, the project is consistent with the Housing Element of the Policy Plan (General Plan) component of The Ontario Plan. The Project site is one of the properties listed in the Housing Element Sites contained in Tables B-1 and B-2 (Housing Element Sites Inventory) of the Housing Element Technical Report. The Housing Element Sites Inventory designates the site for 108 units in the very low/low-income category; however, the proposed Project includes 144 units in the very low/low-income category, exceeding the originally anticipated number. The Housing Element Sites Inventory will be amended to reflect this change.
SECTION 3: Airport Land Use Compatibility Plan ("ALUCP") Compliance.
The California State Aeronautics Act (Public Utilities Code Section 21670 et seq.) requires that an Airport Land Use Compatibility Plan be prepared for all public use airports in the State; and requires that local land use plans and individual development proposals must be consistent with the policies set forth in the adopted Airport Land Use Compatibility Plan.
On April 19, 2011, the City Council of the City of Ontario approved and adopted the Ontario International Airport Land use Compatibility Plan, establishing the Airport Influence Area for Ontario International Airport, which encompasses lands within parts of San Bernardino, Riverside, and Los Angeles Counties, and limits future land uses and development within the Airport Influence Area, as they relate to noise, safety, airspace 349
protection, and overflight impacts of current and future airport activity. As the decision- making body for the Project, the City Council has reviewed and considered the facts and information contained in the Application and supporting documentation against the ONT ALUCP compatibility factors, including [1] Safety Criteria (ONT ALUCP Table 2-2) and Safety Zones (ONT ALUCP Map 2-2), [2] Noise Criteria (ONT ALUCP Table 2-3) and Noise Impact Zones (ONT ALUCP Map 2-3), [3] Airspace protection Zones (ONT ALUCP Map 2-4), and [4] Overflight Notification Zones (ONT ALUCP Map 2-5). As a result, the City Council, therefore, finds and determines that the Project, when implemented in conjunction with the conditions of approval, will be consistent with the policies and criteria set forth within the ONT ALUCP; and
SECTION 4: Concluding Facts and Reasons. Based upon the substantial evidence presented to the City Council during the above-referenced hearing, and upon the specific findings set forth in Section 1 through 3, above, the City Council hereby concludes as follows:
(1) The proposed PUD, or amendment thereto, is consistent with the goals, policies, plans and exhibits of the Vision, Policy Plan (General Plan), and City Council Priorities components of The Ontario Plan.The proposed Project is located within the Mixed Use – Holt Boulevard land use district of the Policy Plan Land Use Map, and the MU-6 (East Hold Mixed Use) zoning district. The development standards and conditions under which the proposed project will be constructed and maintained, is consistent with goals, policies, and exhibits of the Vision, Policy Plan (General Plan), and City Council Priorities components of The Ontario Plan. (2) The proposed PUD, or amendment thereto, would not be detrimental to the public interest, health, safety, convenience, or general welfare of the City. The City Council has required certain safeguards, and has required certain changes, which have been established to ensure that: [i] the purposes of the Planned Unit Development are maintained; [ii] the project will not endanger the public health, safety or general welfare; [iii] the project will not result in any significant environmental impacts; [iv] the project will be in harmony with the area in which it is located; and [v] the project will be in full conformity with the Vision, City Council Priorities and Policy components of The Ontario Plan 2050.
(3) In the case of an application affecting specific property(ies), the proposed PUD, or amendment thereto, will not adversely affect the harmonious relationship with adjacent properties and land uses. A thorough review and analysis of the proposed project and its potential to adversely impact properties surrounding the subject site was completed by City staff. As a result of this review, certain design considerations were incorporated into the project to mitigate the identified impacts to an acceptable level, including the use of the upgraded materials, the inclusion of certain architectural design elements on building exteriors, intensified landscape elements, and decorative hardscape elements.
350
(4) In the case of an application affecting specific property(ies), the subject site is physically suitable, including, but not limited to, parcel size, shape, access, and availability of utilities, for the request and anticipated development. In preparing the proposed PUD, a thorough review and analysis of the proposed project and the project site’s physical suitability for the proposed project was completed, included analysis of the project size, shape, intensity of development, building height, building setbacks, site access, site landscaping and drainage, fences and walls, vehicle circulation, pedestrian connections, availability of mass transit, necessary street dedication and easements, public right-of-way improvements, availability of utilities and other infrastructure needs, off- street parking and circulation, building orientation and streetscapes, architectural character, building materials and color, and site signage. (5) The proposed PUD is superior to that which could be obtained through the application of the Development Code or a specific plan. The proposed PUD addresses aspects of the project that are specifically related to the Development Plan proposed in conjunction with PUD application, including necessary building setbacks, site access points, off-street parking and site circulation, and architectural character.

HOLT + ALLYN PLANNED UNIT DEVELOPMENT
5 1. INTRODUCTION
1.1 OVERVIEW
The Holt + Allyn Planned Unit Development (PUD) is intended to function as a set of planning and design principles, development regulations , and performance standards to guide and govern the development of five parcels bounded by Holt Boulevard to the south and residential parcels along Nocta Street to the north and Allyn Avenue to the west [see Exhibit 1-1, Project Location Map]. The project site is envisioned to accommodate a high-quality residential use development on the parcels that face Holt B oulevard. The Holt + Allyn Planned Unit Development (PUD) will replace the existing zone district designations and zoning standards that apply to the affected properties.
Unless otherwise defined herein, definitions and interpretations contained in the Development Code shall apply . City Staff and private developers will rely on this PUD to determine whether precise plans for development (“Development Plans”) will adequately meet the City’s land use and design objectives.
Located near the northeast corner of East Holt Boulevard and North Allyn Avenue, the 5.73-acre site is situated along the Holt Boulevard Corridor and within the East Holt Boulevard Mixed Use Area. Through these designations, the Ontario Plan seeks to encourage the redevelopment of Holt Boulevard into medium-density residential uses integrated with commercial, workplace, and urban facades.

2.1 GENERAL PLAN CONSISTENCY
Within the Ontario Policy Plan (General Plan) the Holt + Allyn PUD site is designated Mixed Use – Holt Blvd. The Ontario Plan describes the Mixed-Use – Holt Blvd designations as “ a low-rise (3-5 stories) intensification of the Holt Corridor. The intent is to create identity and place, connect the corridor to Downtown, and connect the Downtown to the Ontario Airport Metro Center.” Within the community design element, the Policy Plan envisions all corridors to carry unique identities with infill development ; create comfortable, safe, human-scale public real ms, including pedestrian paths, such as sidewalks that provide access to new housing , and meet mobility needs of residents, transit riders, workers and visitors; complete and connect mobility networks for convenient bicycle travel; accentuate the linear nature of the corridor by providing seamless transitions from less intense residential neighborhoods to higher density infill sites; and enable and promote human activity through activated street frontages.
The Holt + Allyn Apartments are consistent with the principles, goals, and policies contained within the components that make up the Ontario Policy Plan, including (1) Vision, (2) Policy Plan, (3) Implementation Programs, and (4) City Council Priorities. The policies implemented by this PUD are as follows:
1. VISION
On February 13, 2007, the Ontario City Council adopted The Ontario Vision . The central them e that motivates the Vision is – “A sustained, community -wide prosperity which continuously adds value and yields benefits.” Everything the City does and every action the City takes is done with 2 N
361
HOLT + ALLYN PLANNED UNIT DEVELOPMENT
8 SECTION 2 I PROJECT OBJECTIVES
this simple yet comprehensive theme in mind, from the design quality of the built environment, to the intent of designing socio -economic programs, to the way in which its leaders govern as a community. In discussing a Vision that would endure for the lifetime of The Ontario Plan (30 years or more), the City Council recognized that there are four components that serve as the basic building blocks that set the foundation for a unified and prosperous community . These foundational blocks must be expressed and widely accepted throughout the Plan’s lifetime. They are:
1. A Dynamic Balance that enables our community to confront the continued vigorous growth of the region and technological change with confidence and a sense of opportunity.
2. A Prosperous Economy that sustains the perception and reality of prosperity across our entire community that positively impacts all the people of Ontario and is broadly – though not uniformly – shared.
3. Distinctive Development that integrates our varied and diverse focal points, districts, villages, and neighborhoods to provide a feeling of coherence without sacrificing uniqueness.
4. Recognized Leadership in local governance that stimulates excellence and serves to unify the people of Ontario in support of best practices in conducting public endeavors.
The Holt + Allyn PUD will implement the Ontario Vision in ways that will further the City’s desire to be a sustainable and prosperous community.
RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENT
• The PUD allows for the development of multifamily housing on a site near schools, recreation, and cultural facilities, places of worship, pl aces of employment and shopping, and a future high-quality public transportation line.
• The development standards encourage multifamily residential development , further diversifying the City’s housing stock and balancing the City’s jobs -to-housing ratio that is essential to maintain quality of life within the community.
• The PUD encourages a comprehensive and diverse housing stock that offers broad choices for the diverse workforce and local families, by introducing new affordable multifamily housing units.
DEVELOPMENT QUALITY
• The PUD requires a well -designed project with high -quality materials that complement the existing neighborhood and will enhance the distinctive architectural styles within the City.
362
HOLT + ALLYN PLANNED UNIT DEVELOPMENT
9 SECTION 2 I PROJECT OBJECTIVES
• The development standards require future projects to consider the existing built environment and open spaces, ensuring careful attention to detail at every scale, including public and private spaces and structures.
MOBILITY
• The PUD is located along the future West County Connector bus rapid transit (BRT) line currently under construction and encourages higher-density development near high- frequency transportation facilitating an exceptional degree of movement and connectivity.
• Within the development standards, proposed projects will provide features and amenities to encourage the use of alternative forms of transportation including bicycles, buses, and walking.
PUBLIC SAFETY
• The PUD will ensure that the project is integrated into the existing neighborhood and that connections are made to residential neighborhoods, schools, parks, community centers , and cultural facilities in the surrounding area.
LEISURE AND CULTURAL ACTIVITIES
• The PUD will require r ecreational amenities, community facilities, and programs that offer ample recreation and cultural involvement by a diverse resident population.
RESOURCE CONSERVATION AND ENHANCEMENT
• The location of the PUD on the future West County Connector line provides a unique opportunity to reduce vehicle trips and air pollutants, resulting in improved air quality in Ontario and the region.
2. POLICY PLAN
Goal LU1 : Balance. A community that has a spectrum of housing types and price ranges that match the jobs in the City and that make it possible for people to live and work in Ontario and maintain a quality of life.
• The PUD allows for the development of a multifamily residential project on infill parcel s preserving open space and ensuring access to necessary services and infrastructure. The proposed project will be affordable to households earning less than 60 percent of the area median income (AMI) which will provide opportunities for lower-income families to live close to work, commute via public transportation, and maintain a decent quality of life. The 363

10 SECTION 2 I PROJECT OBJECTIVES
PUD will also encourage sustainable development practices and LEED certification within all applicable projects.
Goal LU2: Compatibility. Compatibility between a wide range of uses. • The PUD evaluates the existing uses surrounding the property and buffers new development through setbacks and step backs.
Goal LU3: Flexibility. Staff, regulations, and processes that support and allow flexible responses to conditions and circumstances to achieve the Vision.
• The establishment of the PUD allows for clear development standards that allow flexibility to achieve the Ontario Vision, improve livability, reduce vehicular trips, create community gathering places and activity nodes, and help create identity.
Goal H1: Neighborhoods + Housing Development Standards. Stable neighborhoods of quality housing, ample community services and public facilities, well -maintained infrastructure, and public safety that foster a positive sense of identity
• The PUD will improve the long -term sustainability of neighborhoods through comprehensive planning, provision of neighborhood amenities, rehabilitation and maintenance of housing, and community-building efforts. The PUD will also ensure that adequate public services, infrastructure, open space, parking , traffic manage ment, pedestrian, and bicycle routes, as well as public safety related to the project are consistent with the City’s master and neighborhood plans.
Goal H2: Housing Supply & Diversity. Diversity of types of quality housing that are affordable to a range of household income levels, accommodate changing demographics and support and reinforce the economic sustainability of Ontario.
• The PUD will revitalize the Holt Boulevard corridor, in conjunction with the construction of the West County Connector by encouraging the production of higher density residential uses that are architecturally, functionally, and aesthetically suited to corridors. The PUD also encourages infill development on a vacant parcel that is identified within the City’s 2021-2028 Housing Element as an opportunity site to meet the City’s Regional Housing Needs Allocation (RHNA). A proposed project on the site will be affordable to households earning less than 60 percent of the area median income (AMI) which will provide opportunities for lower income families to live close to work, commute via public transportation, and maintain a decent quality of life.
Goal H4: Housing Assistance. Increased opportunities for low and moderate-income households and families to afford and maintain quality ownership and rental housing opportunities, including move-up opportunities.

SECTION:
CONSENT CALENDAR
RECOMMENDATION:
That the City Council adopt a Resolution for the Downtown Ontario Improvement Association (DOIA) authorizing the levying of the special assessments for Fiscal Year 2025-26.
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:
Property Tax Assessment amounts are as follows $122,158 from the General Fund for the parcels owned by the City and approximately
$19,618
from the Ontario Housing Authority
(OHA) Fund for the parcels owned by the OHA. If approved, appropriations will be included in the future Annual Budget to City Council for approval as needed.
BACKGROUND & ANALYSIS:
On August 20, 2019, the City Council approved the formation of the Downtown Ontario Community Benefit District (CBD) for an initial five-year term. The objective of the CBD is to provide enhanced services and improvements benefiting downtown businesses and property owners by increasing economic activity and enhancing the value of commercial, retail, and residential property. These services supplement services provided by the City. In its initial five-year term, the CBD has resulted in a cleaner downtown, new businesses, improved operations, and overall support for downtown businesses. On January 16, 2024 the City Council approved a 10-year renewal of the CBD following voter approval by property owners within the District. As a key component of the overall downtown revitalization strategy, the renewal of the CBD supports the ongoing transformation of the downtown into an 18-hour vibrant hub of retail and residential activity.
California Streets and Highway Code, Section 36650, the law governing CBD requirements and processes, requires that the City Council approve the levying of the assessments and approve an 390
Annual Report. On March 4, 2025, the City Council approved the Fiscal Year 2024-25 Annual Report submitted by the Downtown Ontario Improvement Association (DOIA). The report was consistent with the components outlined in the District Management Plan.
To continue levying the special assessment with the CBD program for the next fiscal year, the City Council must adopt a Resolution to approve this levying of assessments for Fiscal Year 2025-26. The CBD Board of Directors voted on March 20, 2025, in favor of no increase to the property assessments for FY 2025-26. Exhibit A provides a breakdown of the assessment roll based on Assessment Parcel Numbers.
The total assessments for all 205 parcels within the CBD for Fiscal Year 2025-26 equal $506,165. The City owns 53 of these parcels, representing approximately $122,158 in property assessments.

RECOMMENDATION:
That City Council adopt a Resolution declaring the property located at 112- 126 West "C" Street, 115-123 West "D" Street, and 324 North Laurel Avenue, identified with Assessor’s Parcel Numbers 1048-566-01 through 1048-566-03 and 1048-566-08 through 1048-566- 11, approve the Notice of Availability, and finding that such declaration is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act.
THE FOLLOWING COUNCIL GOALS ARE BEING ACHIEVED:
Invest in the Growth and Evolution of the City's Economy Pursue City's Goals and Objectives by Working with Other Governmental Agencies FISCAL IMPACT:
There is not a direct fiscal impact associated with this action.
BACKGROUND & ANALYSIS:
The City currently owns real property located at 112-126 West "C" Street, 115-123 West "D" Street, and 324 North Laurel Avenue, identified with Assessor’s Parcel Numbers 1048- 566-01 through 1048-566-03 and 1048-566-08 through 1048-566-11, described and depicted in Exhibit "A" of the attached Resolution, which constitutes approximately 1.3 acres (“Property”). The Property is not needed for agency purposes and, as a result, the City desires to dispose of the Property.
Effective January 1, 2020, AB 1486 amended the Surplus Land Act, Government Code Section 54220 et seq. (“SLA”), which prescribes the process for disposal of surplus land. Before taking any action to dispose of the Property, the City must first comply with the SLA.
The SLA requires all local agencies to prioritize affordable housing, as well as parks and open space, when disposing of surplus land. New legislation which took effect on January 1, 2020, requires that before a local agency takes any action to dispose of land, the land must be declared either “surplus land” or “exempt surplus land,” as supported by written findings. “Surplus land” means the land owned by a local agency for which the local agency’s governing body takes formal action in a regular public meeting 399
declaring that the land is surplus and is not necessary for the agency’s use.
City staff has determined the Property is “surplus land” that is subject to the SLA process, and that no exceptions apply.
Accordingly, before taking steps to dispose of the Property, the City needs to comply with the SLA by taking formal action to declare the property surplus. Adoption of the attached Resolution would declare the Property as surplus land.
The SLA process for “surplus land” involves several steps. After designating real property as non-exempt surplus land, the City must send Notices of Availability to affordable housing developers, public agencies, and other entities required to receive notice under the SLA. Any party receiving a Notice of Availability and interested in acquiring the surplus property must notify the City in writing within 60 days after the Notice of Availability is transmitted. If such notice is received, the City must enter into good faith negotiations to determine a mutually satisfactory sale or dispose of price and terms. Nothing in the SLA prevents the City from obtaining fair market value for the disposition of surplus land. Accordingly, the City has the power to sell or dispose of surplus land at fair market value or at less than fair market value (Gov't Code § 54226). If the price or terms cannot be agreed upon after a good faith negotiation period of not less than ninety (90) days, the land may be disposed of without further regard to SLA procedures, other than submitting a report to the California Department of Housing and Community Development ("HCD") and recording an affordability covenant on the Property.
After the City has sent Notices of Availability and concluded attempts to negotiate in good faith with any interested party, the City must provide a report to HCD. HCD then has thirty (30) days to notify the City whether it has violated the SLA. The City would then have sixty (60) days to correct the violation or to submit findings as to why the law was not violated. If the City is not notified of a violation by HCD within thirty (30) days after submitting the required materials, the City receives “safe harbor” and is not subject to the SLA’s penalty provisions.
The City will also have to record an affordability covenant on the Property that will apply if ten (10) or more residential units are developed on the Property.
Adopting the attached Resolution will declare that the property is “surplus land” under the SLA and direct staff to comply with the SLA.
City staff has determined pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (Public Resources Code Section 21000 et seq.) (“CEQA”) that the designation of the Property as non-exempt surplus, approval of the form of Notice of Availability, and authorization for the City Manager to comply with the Act will not result in a direct or reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment and as such is exempt from further review under CEQA pursuant to State CEQA Guidelines Section 15060(c)(3). In the alternative, staff has determined that the actions contemplated involve the sale of surplus government property, which is exempt from environmental review under CEQA pursuant to State CEQA Guidelines section 15312 as the government Property is not located in an area of statewide, regional or area-wide concern per CEQA Guidelines section 15206(b)(4) and has determined that none of the exceptions in CEQA Guidelines section 15300.2 to the use of this exemption have application. 400

WHEREAS, the Act requires that prior to the disposal of any surplus land, unless when an exemption applies, a local agency must issue a Notice of Availability to, among others, affordable housing developers, and thereafter, if any entity submits a qualified Notice of Interest within sixty (60) days of issuance of the Notice of Availability, the local agency must negotiate in good faith for at least ninety (90) days with any such submitting entities; and
WHEREAS, the Property is not exempt from the Act; and
WHEREAS, a form of the Notice of Availability is attached hereto as “Exhibit B” 401
WHEREAS, pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (Public Resources Code Section 21000 et seq.) (“CEQA”) City staff has determined that the designation of the Property as non-exempt surplus, approval of the form of Notice of Availability, and authorization for the City Manager to comply with the Act will not result in a direct or reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment and as such is exempt from further review under CEQA pursuant to State CEQA Guidelines Section 15060(c)(3); and,
WHEREAS, in the alternative, staff has determined that the actions contemplated involve the sale of surplus government property, which is exempt from environmental review under CEQA pursuant to State CEQA Guidelines section 15312 as the government Property is not located in an area of statewide, regional or area-wide concern per CEQA Guidelines section 15206(b)(4) and has determined that none of the exceptions in CEQA Guidelines section 15300.2 to the use of this exemption have application; and
WHEREAS, if and when any of the Property is sold to a purchaser, and that purchaser proposes a use for the Property that requires a discretionary approval, any potential future use will be subject to CEQA as this Resolution does not propose a binding commitment to any particular use of the Property; and
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, FOUND, DETERMINED AND ORDERED by the City Council of the City as follows:
SECTION 1: The above recitals are true and correct and are a substantive part of this Resolution and findings of the City Council of the City.
SECTION 2: The City Council hereby finds and declares that the Property is “surplus land” as used in the Act, because the Property is owned in fee simple by the City, and the Property is surplus and not necessary for the City’s use.
SECTION 3: The City hereby approves the form of Notice of Availability substantially in the form attached hereto as “Exhibit B.” SECTION 4: The City Council hereby authorizes the City Manager or designee to take all necessary actions to fully comply with the Act without further need to obtain further City Council approval.
SECTION 5: Pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (Public Resources Code Section 21000 et seq.) (“CEQA”) the designation of the Property as non- exempt surplus, approval of the form of Notice of Availability, and authorization for the [CITY MANAGER] to comply with the Act will not result in a direct or reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment and as such is exempt from further review under CEQA pursuant to State CEQA Guidelines Section 15060(c)(3), and in the alternative, the sale of the Property is exempt from further environmental review pursuant to State CEQA Guidelines section 15312 as the Property is not located in an area of statewide, regional or area-wide concern per CEQA Guidelines section 15206(b)(4). If and when any of the Property is sold to a purchaser, and that purchaser 402
proposes a use for the Property that requires a discretionary approval, any potential future use will be subject to CEQA as this Resolution does not constitute a binding commitment to any particular use of the Property. Staff is directed to issue a Notice of Exemption regarding this determination.
SECTION 6: If any section, subsection, paragraph, sentence, clause or phrase of this Resolution is declared by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unconstitutional or otherwise invalid, such decision shall not affect the validity of the remaining portions of this Resolution.
SECTION 7: The City Clerk of the City of Ontario shall certify as to the adoption of this Resolution.

SECTION:
CONSENT CALENDAR
RECOMMENDATION:
That the City Council authorize the City Manager, or designee, to execute Amendment No. 2 to the Master Services Agreement with Paymentus Corporation (“Paymentus”) of Charlotte, North Carolina, for electronic bill payment services in the amount of $2,100,000 for Fiscal Year 2024-25 through Fiscal Year 2027-28, for a new total not-to-exceed aggregate amount of $4,700,000.
THE FOLLOWING COUNCIL GOALS ARE BEING ACHIEVED:
Operate in a Businesslike Manner
FISCAL IMPACT:
Amendment No. 2 to the Master Services Agreement with Paymentus Corporation (“Paymentus”) of Charlotte, North Carolina, for electronic bill payment services in the amount of $2,100,000, for a new total not-to-exceed aggregate amount of $4,700,000.
The City and Paymentus
have agreed to transaction fee charges and will negotiate any future increases based on banking and financial regulations.
Proposed Amendment No. 2 will increase the individual transaction limits for credit/debit card payments from $2,500 to $50,000, and Automated Clearing House (ACH)/eCheck payments from $25,000 to $100,000 based on significant growth in both the frequency and total payment amount of online and electronic payment transactions. The cost of these services average $500,000 to $600,000 per year. It is anticipated that these costs will range from $600,000 to $800,000 in future years based on the increase of electronic payments and transactions.
The FY 2024-25 Adopted Budget includes appropriations from the Water, Sewer, and Integrated Waste Operating Funds for these services. Additional appropriations in the Water, Sewer and
Integrated Waste Operating Funds will be included in future Annual Proposed Budgets to City Council for approval as needed.
408
BACKGROUND & ANALYSIS:
In January 2019, the City entered into a Master Services Agreement with Paymentus as part of the Customer Information and Utility Billing System (CIS) software procurement and implementation to replace the City’s PeopleSoft utility billing system. This Agreement initiated a five (5) year term for services, which commenced with the launch of the CIS Infinity utility billing system. The Agreement also included successive three (3) year renewal periods, with the first renewal term commencing June 2025.
On June 23, 2020, the agreement was amended to incorporate additional service for Enterprise Communication Messaging (ECM), which provides the technology and capability for mass outbound messaging through texting via Short Message Service (SMS), email, and Interactive Voice Response (IVR) channels.
Staff recommends approval of Proposed Amendment No. 2, which will provide for an increase in the individual transaction limits to better accommodate customers paying higher balance utility bills online and electronically with credit and debit cards, ACH, and eChecks, especially larger commercial customers.

AN AMENDMENT TO THE MAINTENANCE SERVICES AGREEMENT WITH
CONVERGINT TECHNOLOGIES, LLC FOR THE CIVIC CENTER EXPANSION - FIRE STATION NO. 1 SECURITY CAMERA AND ACCESS CONTROL SYSTEM
CITY OF ONTARIO
Agenda Report
May

SECTION:
CONSENT CALENDAR
RECOMMENDATION:
That the City Council take the following actions:
A
.
Authorize the City Manager, or his designee, to execute Amendment No. 5 to the Maintenance Services Agreement with Convergint Technologies, LLC, of La Palma, California, for the Civic Center Expansion - Fire Station No. 1 Project security camera and access control system in the amount of $112,774 for a total not-to-exceed contract amount of $4,366,250; and
B

Authorize the City Manager or his designee to execute all documents required for the completion of the project which may include, but is 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)
FISCAL IMPACT:
The proposed Amendment No. 5 with Convergint Technologies, LLC will increase the contract amount by $112,774 for a total not-to-exceed contract amount of $4,366,250. The FY 2024-25 Adopted Capital Improvement Program Budget includes appropriation for the Civic Center Expansion - Fire Station No. 1 Project in the Capital Projects Fund.
BACKGROUND & ANALYSIS:
On January 21, 2025, the City Council approved Amendment No. 4 to the Maintenance Services Agreement with Convergint Technologies, LLC. The Communications Infrastructure Planning and Design Standards implemented by the Information Technology Agency encourages consistent technology infrastructure at all City facilities. This includes the security cameras and access control systems needed at Fire Station No. 1. The Information Technology Agency utilizes Convergint Technologies, LLC for all access control citywide due to the 414
standardization they provide. Staff recommends approving Amendment No. 5 to the Maintenance Services Agreement with Convergint Technologies, LLC to install the security cameras and card reader access control systems for Fire Station No. 1, which is estimated to be completed in August 2025.
This amendment is exempt from competitive bidding under applicable law because competitive proposals work an incongruity and are unavailing as affecting the final result, competitive proposals do not produce any advantage, and it is practically impossible to obtain what is required and to observe such form, (Graydon v. Pasadena Redevelopment Agency (1980) 104 Cal. App. 3d 631, 636- 637), because it is necessary to match existing City infrastructure. 415
