EXHIBIT D

CLAIMS PROCEDURE
SUMMARY OF PUBLIC CONTRACT CODE § 9204
The following procedure will apply to any claims by the Contractor on the City:

A "claim" is a separate demand on the City by a contractor on a public works project and sent by registered mail or certified mail with return receipt requested, for one or more of the following:
• A time extension, including relief from penalties for delay • Payment by the City of money damages under the terms of the contract • Payment of an amount that is disputed by the City
Initial Review
The claim must be supported by appropriate documentation. The City has 45 days within which to review the claim and provide the contractor with a written statement identifying the disputed and undisputed portions of the claim. If the City does not issue a written statement, the claim is deemed rejected in its entirety. The City will pay any undisputed portion of the claim within 60 days of issuing the statement.

Meet & Confer
If the contractor disputes the City's written response, or if the City does not issue one, the contractor may request in writing an informal conference to meet and confer for possible settlement of the claim. The City will schedule the meet and confer conference within 30 days of this request and provide a written statement identifying the remaining disputed and undisputed portions of the claim within 10 business days of the meet and confer. The City will pay the undisputed portion within 60 days of issuing this statement, Mediation
With respect to any disputed portion remaining after the meet and confer, the City and contractor will submit the matter to nonbinding mediation, agree to a mediator within 10 business days after issuing the written statement, and share mediation costs equally. If mediation is unsuccessful, then the terms of the public works agreement and applicable law will govern resolution of the dispute.

Miscellaneous Provisions
Amounts not paid by the City in a timely manner bear interest at 7% per annum. Subcontractors may submit claims via this procedure through the general contractor. The City and contractor may waive the requirement to mediate but cannot otherwise waive these claim procedures. 629

Agenda Item No: 1.e

PLACENTIA CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT
Meeting Date: October 7, 2025
Submitted by: Jesus Avila
From: Public Works
Subject:

Reject All Bids for Jaycee Parkette Renovation Project and Authorize the Initiation of a New Procurement Process by Staff
Financial Impact:

Fiscal Impact:

None.

Summary:

The Jaycee Parkette Renovation Project, NIB No. PW-25-04, includes park improvements such as the removal and replacement of the existing playground and rubberized surfacing, the addition of water -efficient irrigation, landscaping, and new park lighting. The project was publicly solicited, and twenty-three (23) bids were received on August 21, 2025. Staff recommend that the City Council reject all bids due to the total projected cost of the project now exceeding the allocated budget as a result of unforeseen cost escalations. These escalations necessitate a reassessment of the project scope, timeline, or the identification of additional funding sources.

Recommendation:

Recommended Action: It is recommended that the City Council:

1. Reject all bids and authorize the return of the bid bonds; and

2. Authorize Staff to initiate a new procurement process for the Jaycee Parkette Renovation Project; and

3. Authorize the City Administrator and/or her designee to execute all necessary documents, in a form approved by the City Attorney.

Strategic Plan Statement:

This item is consistent with the City Council approved 5 -Year Strategic Goal 5: Implement Public Infrastructure to Meet Community Needs, under Objective 5.2, which is working to complete the Placentia Parks Initiative Plan.

Discussion:

In 2021, the California State Parks, Office of Grants and Local Services (OGALS) announced the 2019 Statewide Park Development and Community Revitalization Program (SPP). Funds for this program are provided through Proposition 68 (Prop 68). California voters passed Prop 68 in June 2018 to safeguard natural resources, such as parks, and safe drinking water. This 630

competitive grant program provides funds to create new parks, expand existing parks, and/or renovate existing parks in critically underserved communities. After careful consideration of the grant criteria, Staff recommended to the City Council that the proposed grant applications be submitted for renovations of existing parks, including Jaycee Parkette. The Council approved the submission of the grant applications at the November 17, 2020, City Council meeting.

The City was notified in January 2022, that the renovation project for Jaycee Parkette was chosen by OGALS to receive a grant award of $610,000. Located in the La Jolla neighborhood, Jaycee Parkette serves the hundreds of students who attend Melrose Elementary School and Valadez Academy. The Jaycee Parkette Renovation Project will include the removal and replacement of the existing playground and rubberized surfacing, the addition of water -efficient irrigation, landscaping, and new park lighting.

In addition, on November 21, 2023, the City Council approved a professional services agreement for on -call landscape architectural design firms. The City selected Hirsch & Associates, Inc. (HAI) based on experience and expertise in designing park projects throughout Southern California. A professional services agreement was prepared with HAI to design Jaycee Parkette playground.

Bids for the project were publicly solicited and on August 21, 2025, twenty-three (23) bids were reviewed. The top five (5) bids are listed below. Due to recent cost escalations, the estimated project expenditures have surpassed the originally allocated funding, Staff recommends that City Council reject all bids under Public Contract Code §20166.

$630,671.00

A2Z Construct Inc.
$634,452.00
Micon Construction, Inc.
$648,264.00
RS Construction & Development Inc
$658,279.18
Upon City Council approval, Staff will reassess the project scope and timeline or seek additional funding sources. Should the recommended actions be approved, a new procurement process will be initiated, and the award of the contract may be brought before City Council for approval at a later date. Based on the grant guidelines, the project must be completed by June 30, 2028.

Fiscal Impact Summary:

The City was notified in January 2022, that the renovation project for Jaycee Parkette was chosen by OGALS to receive a grant award of $610,000. On November 21, 2023, the City Council approved a professional services agreement for on -call landscape architectural design firms. A purchase order for landscape design services for Jaycee Parkette was then executed for a cost of $98,945. A total of $511,055 in grant funding is available for this project. 631

The attached resolution will authorize the City Administrator and/ or her designee, to apply for all grants for which the City is eligible to participate for the next five (5) years. The first grant to be applied for under this new resolution will be CalRecycle's Rubberized Pavement Grant Program.

Recommendation:

There is no specific strategic planning goal or objective associated with this agenda item.

Discussion:

CalRecycle has released a Notice of Funding Availability for the Rubberized Pavement Grant Program ("Program") for Fiscal Year ("FY") 2025-26. This competitive grant provides funding for local agencies that use Rubberized Asphalt Concrete (RAC) products with crumb rubber 632

derived from only California -generated waste tires as part of pavement maintenance and rehabilitation projects. The program is designed to provide opportunities to divert waste tires from landfill disposal, prevent illegal tire dumping, and promote markets for recycled content tire products. There is a total of $6,571,315 available for this grant cycle. The City of Placentia may apply for a total grant of $165,000.

If this action is approved, Staff will apply for grant funds to be applied towards the Palm Avenue and Rose Drive Arterial Roadway Rehabilitation Projects. The project will repave more than 800,000 square feet of arterial streets. This project also includes replacement of broken concrete, ADA-compliant curb ramps, and traffic safety improvements. Staff anticipates to solicit bids and begin construction in the Summer of 2026.

CalRecycle's procedures for administering payment programs require, among other things, an applicant's governing body to declare by resolution certain authorizations related to the administration of the payment program (Attachment 1). The proposed resolution shall also authorize the City Administrator as the signature authority to execute all documents necessary to implement and secure payment.

Fiscal Impact Summary:

The City will be requesting the grant award of $165,000 from CalRecycle through this grant program. These grant funds will supplement funds to be allocated for future Arterial Roadway Rehabilitation Projects allowing those funds to be utilized for additional street repairs. There is no fiscal impact associated with the submission of this grant application. Staff will return to the City Council for the award of Arterial Roadway Rehabilitation Projects and present the amount of Rubberized Asphalt Grant Funds received (estimated at $165,000), if approved by CalRecycle.

PLACENTIA CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT
Meeting Date: October 7, 2025
Submitted by: Jerry Griggs
From: Finance
Subject:

Fiscal Year 2025-26 Q1 Financial Report
Financial Impact:

Fiscal Impact:

The City's Operating Budget is reviewed and presented to the City Council quarterly for recommended amendments and to provide current information on the financial activities of the City. Additionally, these types of quarterly reports assist City departments in communicating their financial operations throughout the fiscal year, including any program changes and significant impacts to their annual budgets, as well as ensuring spending and revenues received throughout the year closely align with the adopted budget. This report includes requested departmental budget adjustments through the first quarter of Fiscal Year (FY) 2025- 26, covering the period through September 2025, as well as continuing appropriations for capital projects from FY 2024-25 and cost reductions that were requested by City Council during the June 3, 2025, City Council meeting.

Recommendation:

Recommended Action: It is recommended that the City Council:

1. Approve the First Quarter Budget Report and adopt Resolution No. R-2025-53, amending the City's FY 2025-26 Budget; and

2. Authorize Position Allocation Plan.

Strategic Plan Statement:

This item is consistent with the City Council approved Five Year Strategic Plan, Goal 1: to Ensure Long -Term Fiscal Sustainability, specifically, Objective 1.6: Update the existing 10 - Year Financial Plan.
636

Discussion:

The City adopted a balanced budget for FY 2025-26 on June 3, 2025, utilizing a combination of departmental reductions, one-time revenues and monies set aside within the City's Section 115 trust, which is designed to fund retiree health costs and the unfunded actuarial liability (UAL) payment to CaIPERS, while also setting aside funds in reserves. During the June 3rd meeting, City Council directed Staff to review potential cost -saving measures and return with recommendations within 90 days of budget adoption. With a focus on long term fiscal sustainability, staff has analyzed all revenue and expenses in the current fiscal year's budget, and is proposing the elimination of four (4) positions, as well as various reductions in operating accounts in the recommended action. Reductions in operating expenses include legal services ($75,000), bank and postage fees ($15,000), and cancellation of software contracts ($80,000).

The proposed staffing reductions include:

1. Elimination of the IT Sergeant position ($106,000 annual savings). Following a promotion of the incumbent IT Sergeant, the Police Department has determined this position, while valuable to the organization, can be eliminated with contract IT help brought in to support the needs of the department. The savings stated is the net reduction to the General Fund after eliminating the position, but retaining $150,000 for contract IT costs.

2. Elimination of the Emergency & Health Services Manager ($142,000 annual savings ). The City is reviewing its management of its emergency operations, including service provision options, and the duties of this position will be absorbed by staff in other departments.

3. Elimination of the Public Works Superintendent ($164,000 annual savings) . Following the upcoming retirement of the incumbent in this position, staff has determined the duties of this position can be absorbed by the Public Works Manager, once hired. Staff will assess the impact on service delivery to the community due to this action at the FY25/26 Mid -Year Budget review.

4. Elimination of the Human Resources Clerk ($67,000 annual savings)- This is part of a larger reorganization in the Human Resources and Administrative Services departments which also includes the reclassifications of the Risk Manager to a Risk Analyst, and a Senior Human Resources Technician to a Human Resources Technician.

Other staffing changes include the reclassification of the Deputy Director of Public Works - Operations to a Public Works Manager and the Senior Management Analyst to a Management Analyst in Public Works.

In addition to the proposed operating reductions, staff has identified potential new sources of revenue and will present those options to the City Council later this fall.

General Fund: The General Fund FY 2025-26 Adopted Budget included revenues of $53.5 million and expenditures of $52.6 million. The proposed operating budget adjustments in the FY 2025-26 First Quarter Budget Report include a net decrease in expenditures of $713,276.

This decrease is due to $75,000 reduction in legal services and other smaller operating reductions, but primarily the salary savings previously mentioned above. Increased expenditures in Human Resources and Development Services are for Purchase Orders that need to be carried forward for contracts that were not completed in FY24-25 ($53,223). 637

Adjustments to General Fund revenue is related to capital projects being carried over from FY 2024-25, specifically grants awarded but not yet received in support the public safety building project.

Staff will continue to monitor revenue and expenses throughout the fiscal year and develop a plan reduce the reliance of one-time revenues and build reserves. It should be noted that historically revenue received for property tax has been higher than budgeted for the past several years and Staff is cautiously optimistic that this trend will continue for FY 2025-26, thereby helping to increase the projected reserve level. In addition, Council recently directed Staff to research additional revenue opportunities that may be considered, and Staff will be presenting those options in the coming months.

PLACENTIA CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT
Meeting Date: October 7, 2025
Submitted by: Gabriel Guerrero-Gabany
From: Public Works
Subject:

Public Hearing for 2025 Sewer Rate Adoption
Financial Impact:

Fiscal Im pact:

There is no direct fiscal impact to the City's General Fund Budget associated with the recommended actions. City Council approval of the proposed sewer rate adjustments will generate additional revenue into the City's Sewer Enterprise Fund that will help fund the ongoing maintenance and operation of the City's sewer utility, as well as provide additional funds for needed capital improvements to the sewer collection system.

Summary:

The Public Works Department is responsible for administering over 84 miles of gravity sanitary sewer pipeline. In 2021, the City approved a sewer rate increase. This increase was meant to provide sufficient funding to maintain the existing sewer system and budget necessary capital improvements identified in the adopted 2018 Sewer Master Plan. The adopted sewer rate provided an annual increase of 3% per year to account for inflation over 5 years. The annual increase is set to expire at the end of FY 2025-26, after which fees will remain flat until a new sewer fee schedule is adopted. Since that time, the Sewer Enterprise Fund has provided sufficient budget for routine maintenance, but not for capital improvements.

On July 15, 2025, the City Council adopted Resolution Nos. R-2025-40 and R-2025-41, which approved the initiation of the Proposition 218 public hearing process; set a public hearing for October 7, 2025; and adopted written protest procedures. On Friday, August 15, 2025, the required 45 -day notice was mailed to 12,930 affected property owners in the City. The notice informed property owners about the proposed rate increases, the scheduled public hearing, and procedures for submitting a written protest (Attachment 5).

This action recommends that the City Council conduct a Public Hearing, tabulate the results of protests received, and, if a majority protest is not received, approve a six -year sewer rate increase effective November 20, 2025.

Recommendation:

Recommended Action: It is recommended that the City Council:

1. Open the Public Hearing concerning the proposed sewer rate adjustment; and

2. Receive the Staff Report, consider all public testimony, and ask any questions of Staff; 660

and

3. Close the Public Hearing and direct the City Clerk to tabulate the written protests and report the results of the tabulation to City Council; and

4. Waive full reading, by title only, and introduce for first reading Ordinance No. O-2025-09, an Ordinance of the City Council of the City of Placentia, California, adopting revised Sewer System Service Rates for Sanitary Sewer Service and amending sections of Chapter 5.24 of the Placentia Municipal Code pertaining to the Sewer System Service Fees; and

5. Adopt Resolution No. R-2025-52, a Resolution of the City Council of the City of Placentia, California, declaring the results of a noticed protest proceeding and approving certain actions for rates, fees, and charges for sanitary sewer services.

Strategic Plan Statement:

This item is consistent with the City Council approved 5 -Year Strategic Plan Goal 1: By ensuring long-term fiscal sustainability and Strategic Goal 5: By implementing public infrastructure to meet community needs.

Discussion:

Operation and maintenance costs of the City's sewer collection system have been sufficiently covered by the current sewer collection rate adopted in 2021. However, revenues have not been sufficient to cover the capital needs identified in the 2018 Sewer Master Plan. The City, therefore, has a deferred backlog of much needed sewer system capital improvements.

Increases to the rates are recommended in order to provide sufficient funding to expand the capacity of the existing collection system, provide for much needed sewer rehabilitation and to ensure the Sewer Enterprise Fund remains financially solvent.

Background:

The City currently maintains 84 miles of gravity sanitary sewer pipelines and approximately 600 manholes. The City's wastewater is transferred into the Orange County Sanitation District's (OCSD) collection system via 35 separate connections for treatment. Yorba Linda Water District (YWLD) owns and maintains 10 miles of sewer lines within the City's borders.

On April 26, 2002, the Santa Ana Regional Water Quality Control Board (RWQCB) issued Board Order (Order) No. R8-2002-0014, which prohibited the discharge of untreated sewage to any surface water storm or drainage system. This Order included numerous provisions, including the requirement for every agency to prepare a Sewer System Management Plan (SSMP) to address all requirements of the Order by September 30, 2005. In 2005, the City adopted a sanitary sewer fee and established the Sewer Maintenance Enterprise Fund to meet the increased costs and to comply with regulations adopted by the Santa Ana RWQCB.

The City adjusted the sanitary sewer fee rates in March 2005 while costs associated with maintaining the City's sewer system continued to rise. In 2021 the City adopted a revised sewer service fee structure, shown below.

The established fees increased at 3% per fiscal year to account for inflation. The annual increase is set to expire after this fiscal year on June 30, 2026, at which point the fee will remain flat until a new sewer fee is established. While the fee revenues have provided sufficient funding for maintenance needs, they have not provided sufficient funding for the ongoing capital improvement needs. Based on the 2018 Sewer Master Plan adopted by City Council, the estimated deferred sewer capital improvement costs are approximately $19M. 2025 Sewer Cost Recovery Fee Rate Study:

The completed analysis reviewed a six -year cost of service to continue ongoing maintenance while providing sufficient funding for capital improvements identified in the 2018 Sewer Master Plan to be completed over the next six (6) years. To mitigate the effects of variable water usage, which led to the unreliability of the current fee structure, Staff is recommending a flat CIP fee be applied to each user category, with multi -family residential users tiered based on a range of units. This would provide a reliable revenue source to ensure capital sewer improvements could be completed. The proposed fee structure will continue to include a portion of the sewer fee based on water consumption per user category and charged on a per hundred cubic foot (CCF) unit.

The analysis was presented to the Sewer Utility, Refuse, and Recycling Ad -Hoc Committee (SURR Committee) at their June 10, 2025 meeting. Staff presented their recommendations and proposed an updated sewer rate structure. Upon a thorough review, the Committee provided Staff direction and recommended that the rates be forwarded to City Council for consideration.

The City Council conducted a Study Session on July 15, 2025, and directed Staff to set the public hearing date and initiate the Proposition 218 process. On July 15, 2025, the City Council adopted Resolutions R-2025-40 and R-2025-41, which approved the initiation of the Proposition 218 public hearing process; set a public hearing for October 7, 2025; and adopted written protest procedures.

The completed Sanitary Sewer Service Fee Analysis and Six -Year Financing Plan (Study) as shown in Attachment 1 includes a six -year financial plan and cost of service analysis as well as development of new sewer rates. The analysis reviewed the current rate structure in determining needed adjustments for the next six (6) years. The study includes the following findings:
• The City's current sanitary sewer service fee is outdated and does not reflect the full cost to operate, maintain, and improve the system.
• The City's current rates are insufficient to fund ongoing services and necessary capital improvements. The rates have not been adjusted since July 2021. • Without a sanitary sewer system fee adjustment, the City's Sewer Enterprise Fund will not have adequate revenues to cover operations and maintenance of the sewer system 662

and conduct necessary capital improvements and repairs.

The Study recommends the implementation of an updated sewer service fee structure that includes two (2) separate fees: a usage fee and a flat capital improvement fee. The usage fee will fund operating and maintenance costs of the sewer system. The capital fee will fund sewer replacement, rehabilitation, and capacity enhancement improvements through a series of capital projects that are necessary to replace and upgrade the sewer system. The capital fee was developed utilizing the City's Sewer Master Plan. The Sewer Master Plan, prepared by Dudek in 2018, identified over $19 million in needed rehabilitation and capacity improvement projects.

The table in Attachment 2 provides a summary and breakdown of the proposed sewer fee rates over the next six years.

Proposition 218 Process
The City's ability to adjust rates is governed by Proposition 218. In 1996, California voters approved Proposition 218, which requires a specific process for cities to impose or increase certain types of fees. The provisions of Proposition 218, set forth in Article XIII D of the California Constitution provide that certain types of "Property Related Fees" are subject to a "majority protest" process.

The provisions of Proposition 218 set criteria for property -related fees for refuse, water, and sewer services. The fees must be set so that:
• The revenues generated by the fee do not exceed the cost of service • No property owner's fee exceeds his/her proportionate share of the costs • The City does not impose a property -related fee for a service that is not available to the property owner
Upon incorporation of the City Council's recommendations and direction to send Proposition 218 notices, pursuant to California Constitution Article XIII D, Section 6, Staff sent notices to all property owners (and as a courtesy, to all customers, i.e., tenants) that receive sewer service from the City. There was a 45 -day public notice period during which time property owners and customers could send written protests for consideration by the City Council.

Protests from property owners will be tallied at the public hearing set for October 7, 2025.

Notwithstanding a majority protest, City Council can consider verbal testimony from anyone and written protests from non -property owners and decide to approve the rates.

The procedures govern the conduct of a public hearing and the submission and tabulation of written protests in connection with the City Council's consideration of the proposed increases to sewer service charges, in compliance with the requirements of Proposition 218. If the City Council determines at the close of this public hearing that written protests have been presented, and not withdrawn by the Record Owners or Customers of Record of a majority of Identified Parcels, the City shall not impose the fee or charge (i.e., there is a majority protest), and the proposed increases shall not be approved. If the City Council determines at the close of the public hearing that there is not a majority protest, the City Council may adopt, by a majority vote of the members of the City Council, the proposed increase(s). A total of 6,360 protests must be received to constitute a majority.

Staff recommends that the City Council consider public comments on the proposed rate increases, tabulate the protests received, and, if no majority protest exists, adopt the attached 663

Ordinance No. O-2025-09 and Resolution No. R-2025-52 adopting the sewer rates as proposed.

Fiscal Impact Summary:

There is no direct General Fund fiscal impact associated with the requested actions. The cost for providing sanitary sewer services to the City's residents and businesses is covered by the customer rates established by the City and paid by those receiving said services. The proposed rate increase will be included in the proposed Fiscal Year 2026-27 Budget for the Sewer Enterprise Fund. The increased rates will provide additional funding for the Sewer Enterprise Fund to continue maintaining and operating the City's sewer collection system, as well as provide additional revenues to fund the cost of needed capital improvements to the City's sewer collection system.

CITY OF PLACENTIA

SANITARY SEWER SERVICE FEE

ANALYSIS AND SIX -YEAR FINANCING
PLAN
Updated: July 15, 2025

Page 2 of 10 ends

INTRODUCTION
The City of Placentia ("City") provides sanitary sewer collection to the majority of parcels within the City through approximately 84 miles of gravity sanitary sewer pipelines. All untreated sanitary waste collected by the City's sanitary sewer system is conveyed to the Orange County Sanitation District ("OCSD") for treatment. As a result, the City's primary focus is the cleaning, management, and maintenance of the collection lines within the City's sanitary service area.

The operation and maintenance of the City's sewer system is funded through the Sewer Enterprise Fund which is separate from the City's General Fund. The City has not adjusted the sanitary sewer fee rates since 2021. Since that time, the Sewer Enterprise Fund has provided sufficient budget for routine maintenance but not for critical capital improvements. Without a sanitary sewer service fee adjustment, the City's Sewer Enterprise Fund will not have adequate revenues to cover operations and maintenance of the sewer system and conduct necessary capital improvements and repairs. The existing rates are shown in Figure 1 below.

1 CCF is an abbreviation for 100 cubic feet which is a normal unit of measure for water consumption and is equal to 748 gallons.

The current rates are insufficient to fund ongoing services and necessary capital improvements.

This Sanitary Sewer Service Fee Analysis and Financing Plan was prepared pursuant to the California Constitution Article XIII D, Section 6 ("Proposition 218"), and Placentia Municipal Code Chapter 5.24. The purpose of the Fee Analysis is to update the City's sanitary sewer service fees to ensure they are sufficient to meet the City's service obligations for ongoing operation and maintenance and capital improvements while maintaining prudent reserves. 666

Page 3 of 10 ends

The proposed sanitary sewer service fee will raise an amount of revenue that does not exceed the amount required to operate, maintain and build out the sanitary sewer system. The proposed rates are based on the cost of service, follows generally accepted rate design criteria, and adheres to the substantive requirements of Proposition 218. The City believes that the proposed rates are fair and reasonable to the City's customers.

SUMMARY OF KEY FINDINGS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
Based on the findings presented in this analysis, the following recommendations are presented:

1. Beginning October 7, 2025, the sewer usage fee should be set at the rates below for every one hundred cubic feet of water consumption. Additionally, the City should establish a new CIP flat fee to fund necessary capital improvements to the sewer system.

2. The proposed six -year total sanitary sewer service fees should be adopted in accordance with the procedures for new or increased fees or charges outlined in Article XIIID of the California Constitution ("Proposition 218").

3. Proposition 218 allows agencies to implement rates and charges lower than those approved via the Proposition 218 hearing process. If annual cost increases are less than projected, the City can increase rates and charges by less than the maximum rates stated in the Proposition 218 notice.

4. For the Sewer Enterprise Fund, the City should maintain a working capital reserve of at least three months of operating expenses and a capital improvement reserve equal to three percent of net depreciable capital assets.

5. The six -year financing plan and associated sanitary sewer services rates reflect assumptions and estimates that are believed reasonable at present. However, conditions change. It is recommended that the City review the financial condition of the Sewer Enterprise Fund annually as part of the budget process and perform a comprehensive financial plan and sewer fee update every six years, unless otherwise needed sooner.

SIX YEAR FINANCING PLAN
This section describes the six -year financial plan ("Plan") and related recommendations for the City's Sewer Enterprise Fund. The Plan is used to determine annual sanitary sewer revenue requirements. The annual revenue requirement is the amount of revenue needed from sanitary sewer service fees to cover anticipated operating, maintenance, and capital improvement program costs while working to achieve the reserve goals by FY 2030-31.

Plan Assumption/Objectives
Base Year - The Plan uses fiscal year 2025-26 as both the budget year and the base year. The base year is a term used to describe the fiscal year's expenses with which the sanitary sewer rates are set. The planning period is FY 2025-26 through FY 2030-31.

Inflationary Assumption - The Plan includes a general cost and construction cost inflation adjustment of 3.0 percent per fiscal year. General inflation is currently about 3.0 percent per year, as reported by the Bureau of Labor Statistics for the Los Angeles -Long Beach -Anaheim area.

Construction inflation, as indicated by the Engineering News Record's 20 -Cities Construction Cost Index, has ranged between 2.3 and 3.9 percent for the past five years. Each of these inflation assumptions has been reviewed with City staff and is reasonable for financial planning purposes.

Revenue Requirements
The following page details the City's six -year financing plan through 2030-31. The Plan depicts the projected operating revenues and expenses, along with the source and uses of capital improvement funds for the six -year period. The financing plan assumes the proposed new sewer rates (to be discussed in the next section) will become effective in October 2025.

To adequately fund the sanitary sewer system, each of the various cost centers was identified, and an analysis of the required revenue for an initial six -year period was performed. It is desired that the sanitary sewer fee raise enough revenue during this six -year period to cover all anticipated system costs.

The City proposes to fund capital improvement projects to rehabilitate the sewer system through a new CIP flat fee. The City proposes to fund approximately $1,040,000 of capital improvement projects in FY 2025-26 and an average of approximately $3,500,000 annually for the subsequent five fiscal years of the Plan.

COST OF SERVICE ANALYSIS
The next step in the rate -setting process is to evaluate the cost of providing service. Sewer rate calculations contained herein are intended to generate the level of revenue commensurate with the revenue required from the City's sewer customers. The way each customer is responsible for the sewer utility's costs is the subject of the cost -of- service analysis.

Under Proposition 218, the City's sewer service rates must be based on the cost of providing sewer collection and conveyance. Sewer service costs consist of the following:
• Operating costs including administration and maintenance • Capital improvement costs including but not limited to replacements and improvements to gravity pipelines and connections
• Costs related to maintaining adequate reserves
The City's goal in defining sanitary sewer service rates is to establish a rate structure to equitably distribute the sanitary sewer system costs while ensuring that all customers contribute their fair share toward the financial obligation of the system. This goal allows customers to pay their proportionate share based upon individual use while allowing customers control over the amount of their bill and maintaining that all customers pay their fair share of the financial obligation of the system.

Since the return flow contributed to the sanitary sewer system varies greatly based upon the type of application for the users being served, there are separate for six major classes of sanitary users are defined below.
• "Single -Family Residential" means a single structure designed for and containing living, sleeping, cooking, and eating facilities. For an account to be considered a single-family residential, water must be provided to the dwelling unit through a dedicated meter for the exclusive water use of the residence within and around the residence
• "Multi -Family Residential" means a structure or set of structures containing multiple dwelling units designed for and containing living, sleeping, cooking, and eating facilities. The structures may be made up of one -family houses attached to one or more houses and buildings constructed for occupancy by two or more families (e.g., duplexes, apartments, townhouses, row -houses, condominiums, and boarding and rooming houses) and all residential mobile homes or trailers. • "Commercial" means the use of the sanitary sewer system related to the 671

Page 8 of 10 ends

operation of any business, commerce, or trade.
• "Industrial" means the use of the sanitary sewer system related to manufacturing or processing activities. Identified in the 1997 U.S. North American Industrial Classification System in the following categories: 11xx- Agriculture, Forestry, Fishing, and Hunting; 21xx- Mining; 22xx- Utilities; 31xx to 33xx- Manufacturing; 48xx to 49xx- Transportation and Warehousing and 562x- Waste Management and Remediation Services. • "Institutional" means the use of the sanitary sewer system related to private/public schools, junior colleges, colleges/universities, cemeteries, hospitals, garden and agriculturally zoned property, and public land agencies.
• "Governmental" means the use of the sanitary sewer system by a city, county, state, federal government, or subdivision of any of the aforementioned.
• "Public" means the use of the sanitary sewer system related to predominantly general public use. Examples include museums, historical sites, religious organizations, charitable organizations, social advocacy organizations, civic and social organizations that are not operated for profit or operated under any governmental agency.

SANITARY SEWER SERVICE FEE DETERMINATION
Revenue derived from the sanitary sewer service fee and imposed upon customers connected to the City's sanitary sewer system ("system") is used to pay the costs of operation and maintenance and capital improvements. The proposed sewer rate service fee consists of two fees — the Usage Fee and the CIP Fee. The rates are formed in a manner that is proportionate to the customer's estimated sewer discharge and cost of providing the service.

Cost per Unit
Based on existing revenue and expenditure data previously discussed. Revenues produced from the current usage fee structure are sufficient to support ongoing maintenance and operations costs for the next six fiscal years. According to projected maintenance and operation expenses over the next six fiscal years the usage fee will be reduced for all users.

To support existing capital project needs, $19 million is necessary over the next 6 years. This cost was split between multi -family residential, single family residential and non-residential users based on how many services currently exist. This data was provided by the water agencies that 672

Page 9 of 10 ends

currently assess sewer service fees to the customer. It was determined that non-residential customers currently use approximately three times more water than residential users. The CIP fee assessed to non-residential users was then proportionality applied.

SEWER BILL IMPACTS
A summary of the current sanitary sewer services rates by user class and an average bill for a customer within that user class is provided in the figure below. The average monthly bill for the same user classes under the proposed total sanitary sewer service fees are shown, effective October 7, 2025. For a typical single-family residential customer using 16 CCF of water per month, the monthly sewer fee will increase by $5.84. For a typical multi -family residential customer using 8 CCF of water per month, the monthly sewer fee will increase by $9.76 per unit.

IMPLEMENTATION
Procedural Requirements for Fee Adoption
In order to adopt the proposed five-year sanitary sewer service rates, the City will need to follow the procedural requirements contained in Article XI I I D of the California Constitution ("Proposition 218"). These requirements include a notice of public hearing to be mailed to all affected property owners and customers at least 45 days prior to a public hearing.

Annual Review of Revenue and Rates
Whenever a public agency adopts new utility rates, those new rates should be closely monitored over the next several years to ensure the revenue generated is sufficient to meet the annual revenue requirements. Changing economic and drought -related water consumption patterns underscore the need for this review, as well as potential and unseen changing revenue requirements, particularly those related to environmental regulations that can significantly affect capital improvements and repair and replacement costs.

NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING FOR

PROPOSED SEWER SYSTEM RATES
To Property Owner:

PRSRT STD
U.S. Postage
PAID
KES Mail, Inc.

NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that on Tuesday, October 7, 2025, at 7:00 p.m., at or as soon thereafter as may be heard, the City Council of the City of Placentia will hold a Public Hearing in the Council Chambers of the Placentia City Hall located at 401 E. Chapman Avenue to consider proposed increases to the City's sewer system rates. If approved by the City Council, the proposed rate increases will be effective for sewer system collection services provided on or after October 7, 2025.

This notice is being provided to you pursuant to Article XIIID, Section 6 of the California Constitution (Proposition 218), adopted by the electorate in 1996 as part of Proposition 218 which requires that notification be sent 45 days in advance of the public hearing to all affected property owners with respect to the proposed increases to the City's sewer system rates and to inform you of opportunity to protest the rate increase by submitting a written protest prior or during this public hearing.

The public also receives wastewater treatment services from Orange County Sanitation District's (OCSD), which is responsible for setting its own rates, sending separate notices of public hearings, and holding a separate public hearing.

WHY ARE RATE CHANGES BEING CONSIDERED?
The City of Placentia provides wastewater collection services to the majority of parcels within the 6.6 square mile City limits through approximately 84 miles of gravity sanitary sewer pipelines. The City's wastewater collection system conveys untreated wastewater to OCSD's trunk sewer mainlines via 35 separate connections. OCSD conveys, treats, and disposes of the City's wastewater flows via OCSD Plants.

Without a sanitary sewer service adjustment, the City's Sewer Enterprise Fund will not have adequate revenues to cover operations and maintenance of the sewer system and conduct necessary capital improvements and repairs.

BASIS OF PROPOSED RATES
The City is required by State Law, City standards and practices, and Enterprise Fund requirements, to collect revenues sufficient to fund current and future costs of operating, maintaining, and administering the existing sewer facilities, and fund capital improvements and infrastructure replacement programs. These revenues allow the City to protect public health and safely and reliably collect and convey wastewater for treatment. By State law, the City may not collect more revenue than is necessary to recover the total costs of providing services. The proposed rates were developed through a comprehensive Sewer Cost Recovery Fee Rate Analysis designed to meet all legal requirements and fairly and equitably recover the required revenue from all customer classes. The 2025 Sewer Cost Recovery Fee Rate Analysis is available for review at www.placentia.org/sewerrates . 2025 SEWER COST RECOVERY FEE RATE ANALYSIS
The City's Sewer, Refuse and Recycling Ad -Hoc Committee has noted that the Sewer Enterprise Fund generates insufficient revenues to support critical capital improvement needs.

The Committee also noted that actions should be taken by the City to ensure there are sufficient funds to properly administer the City's sewer system. In 2018, the City completed a Sewer Master Plan (Master Plan) which identified approximately $19 million in needed Capital Improvement Program (CIP) sewer system rehabilitation and capacity improvement projects. The City's recently completed 2025 Sewer Cost Rate Analysis developed a financial plan that guides investment in the City's sewer system over the next six years.

The analysis recommends the implementation of an updated sewer service fee structure that includes the implementation of a flat CIP fee. The existing usage fee established back in 2021 was unreliable and did not generate the revenues previously projected. The usage fee will continue to fund ongoing operating and maintenance costs of the sewer system. The CIP flat fee will fund sewer replacement, rehabilitation, and capacity enhancement improvements through a series of capital projects that are necessary to replace and upgrade an aging sewer collection system.

The proposed rate changes are needed to continue the safe operation of the City's sewer system and will 1) fully fund operations and maintenance costs and 2) support necessary capital improvement projects to upgrade the City's aging sewer system and meet the future system capacity needs of the City.

PROPOSED SEWER RATES:

Currently, the City currently charges a per hundred cubic feet (ccf) volumetric fee for all customers. This fee is based on a customer's water usage and it is included in your monthly water bill from the Golden State Water Company or Yorba Linda Water District. The proposed rates will reduce the volumetric fee for all customers and include a flat CIP fee which will be applied to all users. The following tables show the proposed sewer service rates for the next six fiscal years. The rates reflect the sewer discharge rate for each user.

The total proposed sewer rate will consist of two components: the volumetric fee and flat CIP fee.

HOW CAN I PROTEST?
Proposition 218 allows property owners to respond to the proposed fees prior to or during the public hearing. Consistent with Proposition 218 and California Government Code § 53755, this notice has been mailed to all property owners within the service area based on the most current information published by the Orange County Assessor. Any record owner of a parcel upon which the Sewer Rates are proposed for imposition and any tenant directly liable for the payment of Sewer Rates (i.e., a customer of record) may submit a written protest to the proposed rate increases; provided, however, only one written protest will be counted per identified parcel. If you object to the proposed fees as described in this Notice you may file a written protest with the City Clerk at or before the time set for the public hearing. Written protest may be hand delivered or mailed to the City Clerk at 401 East Chapman Avenue, Placentia, CA 92870. To be valid, written protests must include the following:

1. The name of the record owner or owners of the property

2. Service address and assessor's parcel number (APN)

3. A statement of protest/opposition to the proposed increase ("I protest" will suffice); and

4. The original signature of the protesting owner or owners (photocopies will not be accepted).

If the City receives timely written protests in excess of 50 percent of the parcels receiving sewer service from the City, the City will not adopt the proposed rates. Please note that each property will be counted as a single vote, regardless of the number of owners. If there are two record owners, both must sign the written protest. If there are more than two owners, the protest must be signed by a majority of the owners. Multiple protests returned for a single property will be disallowed and the City Clerk will only accept one protest per property. Email, fax, telephone, or oral protests of any kind will not be counted. Mailed protests received after the close of the public hearing will not be counted, even if they were postmarked earlier.

WHERE DO I FIND ADDITIONAL INFORMATION REGARDING THE PROPOSED RATES? Additional information regarding the basis for the public hearing, and proposed rate increases are set forth in the analysis, staff reports, and supporting documents provided to the City Council for its meeting on July 15, 2025 is available for public review at the City's website at: www.placentia.org/sewerrates .

Agenda Item No: 2.b

PLACENTIA CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT
Meeting Date: October 7, 2025
Submitted by: Joe Lambert
From: Development Services
Subject:

Public Hearing to consider Ordinance No. O-2025-10, an Ordinance of the City of Placentia, California, Extending an Urgency Ordinance Establishing a Moratorium on Short -Term Rental Permits in Placentia, California.

Financial Impact:

Fiscal Impact:

Potential for approximately $235,000 in revenue annually from Transient Occupancy Tax, based on FY 24-25 actuals, assuming current Short -Term Rental permits remain active.

Summary:

On September 2, 2025, City Council conducted a Study Session to discuss the topic of Short - Term Rentals (STRs) citywide. STRs have been permitted in residential zones citywide since August 2019. Following the Study Session, City Council adopted Urgency Ordinance No. O- 2025-07, placing a moratorium on new Short Term Residential Rental permits for up to 45 days. This moratorium was intended to allow Staff time to analyze and propose additional STR regulations for City Council consideration.

Since Urgency Ordinance No. O-2025-07 is set to expire on October 16, 2025, Ordinance No.

O-2025-10 has been prepared for City Council consideration. This ordinance would extend the STR moratorium until September 1, 2026, or until the City Council enacts amendments to its zoning ordinances or other applicable Municipal Code regulations, whichever is earlier.

Recommendation:

Recommended Action: It is recommended that the City Council:

1. Open the Public Hearing concerning Ordinance No. O-2025-10; and

2. Receive the Staff report and consider all public testimony; and

3. Close the Public Hearing; and

4. Find that Ordinance No.O-2025-10 is not subject to CEQA pursuant to Sections 15060(c) (2), 15060(c)(3) and/or 15061(b)(3) of the State CEQA Guidelines; and

5. Adopt Ordinance No. O-2025-10, an Ordinance of the City of Placentia, California, Extending an Urgency Ordinance Establishing a Moratorium on Short -Term Rental Permits in Placentia, California; and

6. Provide direction to Staff, as appropriate, regarding proposed changes to local regulations related to Short Term Residential Rentals, if any. 686

Strategic Plan Statement:

This item is consistent with the City Council approved 5 -Year Strategic Goal to:

Promote Community and Economic Development (Goal 3), as this item has directly resulted in generating approximately $235,000 in Transient Occupancy Tax (TOT) in FY24-25, additive to revenues collected for four additional Fiscal Years beginning in FY20-21. Furthermore, Objective 3.3 of Goal 3 is to continue to recruit and attract retail, hotel, and other commercial businesses that complement adjacent City assets and attractions. Although not necessarily commercial in nature, Short Term Rentals are similar to hotels.

Discussion:

On September 2, 2025, City Council conducted a Study Session to discuss the topic of Short - Term Rentals (STRs) citywide and City Council received an optional Staff recommendation to adopt an Urgency Ordinance placing a moratorium on new Short Term Residential Rental permits. Subsequent to conducting the Study Session, City Council adopted Urgency Ordinance No. O-2025-07, placing a moratorium on new Short Term Rental (residential) permits for up to 45 days from September 2, 2025, as provided by law. This was done to allow Staff time to analyze and propose additional STR regulations for City Council consideration.

Unless extended, Urgency Ordinance No. O-2025-07 will expire on October 16, 2025.

Pursuant to State and local regulations, the moratorium enacted by Urgency Ordinance can be extended for up to a total of one year subsequent to holding a Public Hearing on the matter. Therefore, Staff scheduled a noticed Public Hearing on the matter and prepared Ordinance No. O-2025-10 for City Council consideration. If adopted, Ordinance No. O-2025- 10 would extend the STR moratorium to September 1, 2026, or until the City Council enacts an amendment to its zoning ordinances or other applicable Municipal Code regulations, whichever occurs earlier.

Staff continues to evaluate potential enhancements to existing STR regulations including the following:
• 500 -foot radius in lieu of 300 -foot radius locational requirement for new STRs • Cap on total STRs, for instance, 0.5% of 16,979 Placentia housing units = 85 total STRs (Seal Beach uses 1% of total units for example)
• Require site plan, floor plan, and inspection, either initially or annually • Limit 2 STR permits per applicant
• Annual renewals of the permits
• Notice of permit issuance to surrounding properties
• Additional controls regarding parking, parties, and number of occupants (current regulations already address these topics)
In addition to conducting the Public Hearing, Staff recommends that City Council provide direction to Staff as appropriate regarding proposed changes to local regulations related to Short Term Residential Rentals, if any. Future Study Session(s) and/or Public Hearings will be conducted for City Council to consider a Municipal Code Amendment on this topic.

Fiscal Impact Summary:

Potential for approximately $235,000 in revenue annually from Transient Occupancy Tax, based on FY 24-25 actuals, assuming current Short -Term Rental permits remain active.

B. Ordinance

NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF PLACENTIA DOES HEREBY ORDAIN AS FOLLOWS:

SECTION 1. The Recitals set forth above are hereby adopted as the findings of the City Council in connection with the adoption of this ordinance and that based on the above recitals, there is an immediate threat to the public health, safety and welfare. The adoption of this ordinance is necessary for the immediate protection of the public health, safety and welfare.

SECTION 2. The purpose of this ordinance is to establish a moratorium on the approval or issuance of any new short-term rental permits within the City of Placentia for the immediate preservation of the public health, safety and welfare.

SECTION 3. Based on the findings set forth in the Recitals and incorporated herein in Section 1, if the City were to continue to issue permits for short-term residential rental properties, there would be an immediate threat to the public health, safety and welfare and to the residential character and uses within the City, including traffic, noise and parking, and other nuisances. Therefore, an extension of the moratorium is necessary based on the following findings:

A. The City of Placentia is comprised of established residential areas, including single family homes, town homes, and apartments.

B. The residential neighborhoods need to be protected and preserved from the adverse impacts of additional short-term rental properties.

C. The continued issuance of short-term rental permits would increase nuisances across the City, including greater noise, traffic, less parking, and other disruptions.

D. The General Plan Objective LU-1 is to provide a well-balanced land use pattern that accommodates existing and future needs for housing, commercial, industrial, and open space/recreation uses, while providing adequate community services to residents.

E. The General Plan Housing Element Goal HE -1 is to develop and maintain an adequate supply of housing that varies sufficiently in cost, size, type, and tenure to meet the economic and social needs of existing and future residents within the constraints of available land.

F. The use of residential housing units as short-term rentals reduces the availability of units for long-term occupancy, increasing the cost and decreasing the supply of housing units, contrary to the City of Placentia's Housing Element.

Ordinance No. O-2025-10

Page 2 of 4 ends

690

G. To fully protect the health, safety, and welfare of the City of Placentia the issuance of permits for short-term rental units must be temporarily prohibited until a permanent solution can be codified.

The issuance of any permit or applicable entitlement for any new short-term rental shall not be approved or issued during the pendency of this ordinance or any modification thereof.

SECTION 5.

SECTION 6. The City Council has reviewed the matter and, based upon the facts and information contained in the staff reports, administrative record, and written and oral testimony, hereby finds that this ordinance is not subject to CEQA pursuant to Sections 15060(c)(2), 15060(c)(3) and/or 15061(b)(3) of the State CEQA Guidelines, California Code of Regulations, Title 14, Chapter 3, in that it will not result in a direct or reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment nor have a significant impact on the environment.

SECTION 7. If any provision of this ordinance or the application thereof to any person or circumstance is held to be to be unconstitutional or otherwise invalid by a court of competent jurisdiction, such invalidity shall not affect other provisions or applications of this ordinance which can be implemented without the invalid provision or application and to this end the provisions of this ordinance are declared to be severable.

SECTION 8. For the term of this ordinance, or any extension thereof, the provisions of this ordinance shall govern over any conflicting provisions of any other City code, ordinance, resolution or policy.

• At the request of City Council, the Staff presentation will include an exhibit demonstrating allowable building heights throughout the corridor.

Prior to the September 16, 2025 Public Hearing, the following adjustments to the Chapman Corridor Revitalization Plan were made based on public input, property owner input and the Planning Commission's recommendation:
• The Planning Commission recommended an amendment to the plan changing the land use designation of APN 339-033-22 (Suzy's Freeze) to MU (Mixed -Use) in lieu of MFF (Multi -family Flex). Staff worked with the subject property owner to address their concerns regarding the future land use of their property and the recommended land use change was made in response to the property owner's concerns. • The Planning Commission also recommended to require hospitality uses within the Mixed Use -Gateway West subarea are permitted only with a valid Use Permit, was in response to community concerns regarding a potential hotel site on the south side of Chapman Avenue. Hospitality uses are not permitted anywhere else in the Chapman Corridor.
• The draft Chapman Corridor Revitalization Plan evaluated by Planning Commission included an omission/error regarding pawn shops and secondhand stores. Pawn shops were listed as "N" instead of "NP" (Not Permitted). Staff recommends that pawn shops shall remain designated "NP" (Not Permitted) in the Plan. Secondhand stores were not listed in the draft plan, but are now treated equally to other retail uses consistent with State law.
• Based on public input, Staff has worked with the consultant to make other changes to the plan. These include: specifying how building height is measured and clarifying certain maximum allowable building heights when adjacent to residential uses. In the Mixed -Use designation of the Gateway West (GW) Subarea, no portion of a hospitality building can exceed 40 feet in height within 50 feet of any residential building. The maximum height in the Mixed -Use Subarea was reduced from 65 feet to 55 feet. Throughout the Plan, other potential development in the Mixed -Use designation is limited to either 30 or 35 feet when adjacent to Single -Family Residential zoning. Clarification on measuring building height has also been added.
• It should be noted that allowable building heights within the Chapman Corridor are largely consistent with heights that are currently allowable pursuant to existing zoning, especially when located adjacent to residential uses.
• Additionally, allowable residential densities within the Chapman Corridor are largely consistent with those that are currently allowable pursuant to existing zoning. For example, the proposed height limit and density limit for the Placentia Lakes community is consistent with current zoning regulations. Similarly, the proposed height limit and density limit for the Cinnamon Tree property is largely consistent with existing zoning regulations, i.e., 35 du/ac, whereas 30 du/ac is permitted under current regulations.

Besides the preceding text, all additional information in this staff report was previously included in the September 16, 2025, City Council staff report.

BACKGROUND:

The General Plan is the City's land use constitution, a legal policy document that is mandated to exist by the State of California. The General Plan is intended to reflect the community's 695

values and to set policies to guide in the development, maintenance, and use of the City's built environment. It forms the basis for future decision making as it relates to the mandatory and optional Elements of the General Plan. The Land Use Element is one of seven mandatory General Plan Elements required by the State of California. On October 1, 2019, City Council adopted the comprehensive General Plan Update, which included an updated Land Use Element. The Land Use Element of the 2019 General Plan strongly encourages enhancements and improvements to the visual image, physical design characteristics, economic vitality and infrastructure of the Chapman Corridor and other major corridors as indicated in the subsequent Goals.
• Goal LU-1 states: Provide a well-balanced land use pattern that accommodates existing and future needs for housing, commercial, industrial and open space/recreation uses, while providing adequate community services to City residents. Policy LU-1.10 further states: Create specific zoning or plans for major corridors within the City. This would include the Chapman Avenue corridor and the Placentia Avenue corridor, among other major thoroughfares.
• Goal LU-3 states: Revitalize underutilized, abandoned or dilapidated commercial, industrial and residential uses and properties. Policy LU-3.1 furthers this goal by stating:

Encourage opportunities for redevelopment and improvements in the Old Town area, the TOD district, industrial areas, neighborhoods in the southern sector of the City, and commercial centers along major roadway corridors.
• Goal LU-5 states: Improve urban design in Placentia to ensure that development is both architecturally attractive and functionally compatible and to create identifiable neighborhoods, and community areas. Policy LU-6.6 furthers this goal by stating:

Improve urban design in Placentia to ensure that development is both architecturally attractive and functionally compatible and to create identifiable neighborhoods, and community areas.
• Goal LU-6 states: Enhance and improve the visual image, economic vitality and infrastructure of the Old Town area, TOD, and surrounding areas, like the future Chapman corridor. Policy LU-6.6 furthers this goal by stating: Focus planning and economic development efforts to spur development and infrastructure improvement on major transportation corridors, such as the future Chapman Avenue Corridor. • Goal LU-10 states: Create enhanced connectivity with California State University Fullerton (CSUF) campus community. Policy LU-10.2 furthers this goal by stating: In creating the aforementioned corridor plans, the City shall take into consideration the nearby Cal State University Fullerton campus community and capitalize on its proximity.

In October 2022, City Council approved a professional services agreement with Placeworks to draft the Chapman Corridor Revitalization Plan (the Plan) document and supporting environmental documentation furthering the aforementioned goals of the General Plan.

Concurrent with approval of the corridor plan document, Staff also recommends the adoption of the Chapman Corridor Streetscape Master Plan which has been prepared by Nuvis consulting, working with Placeworks throughout this effort.

On February 7, 2023, City Council conducted the first Study Session related to the Chapman Corridor Plan and provided direction on several key policies to move the effort forward. The first set of policy questions were related to the corridor boundaries. The second set of policy 696

questions were related to land use and site testing, including: 1. What does Council envision for the future of Chapman Corridor?, 2. What are key objectives for Chapman Corridor?, and

3. What mobility options should be considered for Chapman Avenue and connections to Old Town and the future Metrolink Station? The third set of policy questions were related to additional uses and mobility (transportation). Those questions were: 1. What additional uses and or types of development should be explored?, and 2. Which mobility options and connections should this plan prioritize? At this time, City Staff and Placeworks will present the progress made since February and will present additional policy questions to City Council.

On October 3, 2023, City Council conducted the second Study Session related to the Chapman Corridor Plan and provided direction on additional key policies to move the effort forward. At that meeting, City Council concurred with the general direction of the draft land use plan and concurred with eliminating street parking on one remaining section of eastbound Chapman Avenue. After receiving City Council input, Placeworks and Staff moved forward in drafting the Chapman Corridor Specific Plan with development and design standards.

On March 18, 2025, City Council conducted its third and final Study Session related to the Chapman Corridor Revitalization Plan. That presentation summarized a review of the project to date, summary of public outreach, proposed land use districts and sub -areas and existing conditions (including land use, urban design, mobility, opportunity areas, mobility considerations, and policy guidance/questions, with next steps. The presentation included street sections prepared by consultants to demonstrate potential Chapman Avenue street sections, and elements from the draft Chapman Corridor Streetscape Master Plan. The goal of that Study Session was to receive final City Council input and public input prior to moving forward with the General Plan Amendment, Zone Change/Specific Plan implementation process.

On May 13, 2025, the Planning Commission conducted a Study Session which served as a forum for the Planning Commission to ask any questions of Staff regarding the Draft Chapman Corridor Revitalization Plan and associated documents. The Planning Commission held two subsequent public hearings regarding the Chapman Corridor Revitalization Plan. On August 12, 2025, the Planning Commission adopted Resolution PC -2025-08 recommending that City Council find that General Plan Amendment (GPA) 2025-01, Zone Change (ZCA) 2025-03, and Specific Plan Amendment (SPA) 2025-01 are exempt under State California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines Section 15061(b)(3); and recommending approval of General Plan Amendment (GPA) 2025-01 to change the current land use designation area from existing various designations to "Specific Plan" and to make conforming Land Use Element Amendments for the project area; and, to approve Zone Change (ZCA) 2025-03, and Specific Plan Amendment (SPA) 2025-01 changing the existing Zoning for the project area from existing various Zoning designations to "Chapman Corridor Specific Plan" and establishing development standards for the "Chapman Corridor" district for the project area; and recommending adoption of the Chapman Corridor Streetscape Master Plan.

Public Outreach:

In addition to three City Council Study Sessions, one Planning Commission Study Session and two Public Hearings at Planning Commission, the City of Placentia hosted a Community Workshop on March 30, 2023, to solicit input from the community on the Chapman Corridor Revitalization Plan. The workshop was held at the Powell Building and was attended by 15 to 20 community members. The workshop consisted of a PowerPoint presentation that included an overview of the project, followed by an open house format with interactive activities and 697

stations. Questions included: What should the Study Area include? What are your ideas for Chapman Corridor? What types of uses and buildings would you like to see? and What potential mobility and streetscape improvements would you like to see? A summary of feedback received from the workshop is in the Chapman Corridor Revitalization Plan document.

The Chapman Corridor Revitalization Plan Online Survey was available for three months between March 30, 2023, and July 10, 2023. This survey corresponded to activities that were available during the first Community Workshop held on March 30th. A total of 86 survey responses were received, 85 in English and 1 in Spanish. The survey was promoted on the City's webpage dedicated to Chapman Corridor, the City Facebook page, at the Placentia Palooza event, and at the City Development Services counter. The survey gathered community feedback on the study area boundaries and ideas for the future of Chapman Corridor and included a visual preference survey of potential land uses and building types on the corridor. A summary of the survey results is in the Chapman Corridor Revitalization Plan document.

DISCUSSION:

The Chapman Corridor Revitalization Plan development standards and regulations will foster responsible, progressive and attractive development to meet City Council's goals for the corridor. Medium density, mixed -use, and new commercial development will bring new businesses and residents to the Chapman Corridor, and to the adjacent Old Town Placentia and TOD (Transit Oriented Development) Districts, benefiting the traditional downtown with new shoppers and diners. Another benefit of the Revitalization Plan is to plan for appropriate successor commercial and mixed -use development that will unify the Chapman Corridor from Placentia Avenue to Kraemer Boulevard. Staff envisions that the plan will encourage the consolidation of smaller parcels for new development, providing a catalyst for development, thereby increasing pedestrian activity and revenue to the City in the form of property taxes, sales tax, potential Transient Occupancy Tax (hotel tax) and impact fees. This will also result in a more unified aesthetic for the Chapman Corridor, which currently appears aesthetically and visually inconsistent between Placentia Avenue and Kraemer Boulevard.

Chapman Corridor Specific Plan Land Uses:

If the Chapman Corridor Specific Plan is adopted by City Council, the following land use definitions guide future uses for the corridor and implement the vision for this Plan. Table 3-1 (Attachment 1) provides the maximum density, intensity, and summary for buildout of the Chapman Corridor Revitalization Plan.

Single Family Flex (SFF) - The Single -Family Flex designation is on existing single-family parcels along Chapman Avenue and Sunset Drive in the Gateway West district and at Anned Drive in the Gateway Core District. The SFF designation would allow existing R-1 zoning and land uses to continue and also allows adaptive reuse of structures for flexibility of commercial use. For example, residential buildings could be adapted to offices, such as those found on arterial streets in neighboring cities of Orange and Fullerton. The SFF designation would preserve single-family uses, allow flexibility for home business conversion to activate and diversify use types, and maintain the residential character of the neighborhood.

Commercial Corridor (CC) - The Commercial Corridor designation is at the existing In -N -Out, Placentia Plaza shopping center, car wash at the intersection of Chapman Avenue and Placentia Avenue in the Gateway West District. This designation would allow current 698

commercial uses to continue to operate. This designation preserves commercial uses but increases intensity to incentivize further redevelopment.

Mixed -Use (MU) - The Mixed -Use designation is at the intersections of Chapman Avenue at Murray Street, Walnut Avenue, Bradford Avenue, and Kraemer Boulevard. MU would encourage a diversity of use types along the corridor and accommodate the future catalyst site (Angelina Development) in the Gateway East District and a hotel in the Gateway West District.

Depending on the subarea, this designation allows for 2 to 3 -story, 3 to 4 -story, and 5 -story building heights if certain conditions are met. Building heights are restricted when located adjacent to single-family residential uses. Mixed -use could be vertical or horizontal. There is no requirement for ground -floor commercial or incorporation of retail. Projects may be 100 percent residential or 100 percent commercial.

Multifamily Flex (MFF) - Multifamily Flex designation would allow for multifamily development between 32 and 45 dwelling units per acre, depending on the subarea. This designation will preserve existing residential areas in the Gateway Core, Gateway Neighborhood and Gateway East Districts, as well as encourage multifamily development adjacent to Kraemer Park along Chapman Avenue. Existing uses would be allowed to remain in these areas, and lot consolidation would be required to achieve higher density development. Building heights are restricted to 30 feet when located adjacent to single-family residential uses.

Mixed -Use Civic Center (MU -CI) - The Mixed -Use Civic Center is at the existing City Hall and Library at the northeast corner of Kraemer Boulevard and Chapman Avenue. The Mixed -Use Civic Center designation would provide flexibility in uses and standards for future use of the Civic Center. This standard would allow for 3- to 4 -story buildings, and 5 stories if certain conditions are met.

Open Space Recreation (OS -R) - The Open Space Recreation is at the existing Kraemer Memorial Park. This designation is intended to preserve the existing park and allow for passive and active recreational uses.

Planned Unit Development (PUD-4) - See the Placentia Municipal Code (PMC) Chapter 23.72, "PUD" Planned Unit Development District.

As is the case in the City's TOD zone, a developer could take advantage of the benefits of a designated catalyst site. A catalyst site is defined as the first entitled project in the Plan area and meets the following criteria:
a. It must be a minimum of one acre and shall contain no less than 65 dwelling units per acre.
b. The catalyst site may exceed maximum allowed building height by one floor. c. If the first entitled project is withdrawn after entitlement, the next entitled project may be identified as a catalyst site under discretion of the Planning Director.

A catalyst project has been identified on a 2.96 -acre parcel at the southwest corner of Chapman Avenue and Kraemer Boulevard. This mixed -use project tentatively features 239 new units at approximately 81 dwelling units per acre, a 2,310 -square -foot cafe, and 5,240 square feet of retail office space. The proposed project is six stories high, and parking is in the first two stories. The City of Placentia has identified this project as a catalyst site.

General Plan Amendment:
699

This project requires the General Plan Land Use Element including the Land Use Map to be revised to change the current land use designation from the current land use designation area from existing various designations to "Specific Plan" for the project area. This new designation helps to consolidate the project area, making it easier to attract and guide development. This action will also make the General Plan Land Use Element increasingly internally consistent, in that it will realize Land Use Goals LU-1, LU-3, LU-5, LU-6 and LU-10.

Land Use Consistency between Specific Plan (Zoning) and General Plan:

The proposed project would enhance the City's Municipal Code to further align zoning regulations with the General Plan. Where the proposed project is silent, the City's Municipal code will continue to apply, using the context and objectives of the proposed project as a guide. The proposed regulatory document would provide flexibility for commercial and residential opportunities to develop in the Chapman Corridor in accordance with the General Plan. Existing uses within the Chapman Corridor would be allowed to remain; however, the proposed Specific Plan would create flexibility for potential residences to convert to home businesses and for a variety of mixed -use opportunities throughout the project site.

To implement the Plan vision, the proposed Specific Plan provides flexibility for commercial and residential opportunities to develop. The land use plan aligns with recommendations from the community and City Council and enhances the character of Placentia and Chapman Corridor. Existing uses are allowed to remain; however, new designations create flexibility for potential residences to convert to home businesses and for a variety of mixed -use opportunities throughout the corridor. Another example of this flexibility are the existing multiple -family uses that will be designated MFF or MU. The existing, legally established uses will not be considered non -conforming and can remain as they are. However, the Specific Plan does provide a framework if property owners choose to redevelop a given site.

Additionally, this Plan and its future implementation is consistent with the Goals and policies of multiple Elements of the City's General Plan including Land Use, Mobility, Health, Wellness and Environmental Justice, and the Economic Development Element.

Buildout Numbers:

Through the Planning process, Staff, in conjunction with Placeworks, tested the maximum buildout, discussed areas likely to change and balanced that with an economic demand study and Fehr & Peer's traffic analysis, augmented by their August 5, 2025 Memorandum (attached).

The final buildout proposed in the Chapman Corridor Revitalization Plan - identified as target buildout - features 36% fewer residential units and 70% fewer commercial square feet than the original buildout scenario. The final buildout numbers have been reduced multiple times using an iterative process to ensure that the Plan area will NOT be overbuilt and will be consistent with the contemplated buildout of the 2019 General Plan and related Environmental Impact Report (EIR). It should be noted that the total maximum number of new residential units expected to be built as part of the Chapman Corridor Revitalization Plan is 614 units. The rest of the contemplated development would be commercial in nature.

Keeping the buildout numbers lower also ensures that the Level of Service (LOS) for affected intersections will not change due to approval of the Plan. Moreover, the consultant's analyses also indicate that it is quite likely that every property along the corridor would redevelop, nor is it reasonable to assume that even if they did that they would all be built at maximum development level.

Chapman Corridor Revitalization Plan — Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs):

What is the Chapman Corridor Revitalization Plan?
The Chapman Corridor Revitalization Plan is a long-term vision and strategic planning effort to enhance the Chapman Avenue corridor between Placentia Avenue and the Kraemer Boulevard. The Plan aims to guide future development, improve transportation and walkability, support economic growth, and preserve the corridor's unique character.

Is the City planning to use Eminent Domain?
Absolutely not. The City of Placentia is not, and will not, pursue eminent domain as part of the Chapman Corridor Revitalization Plan. Any future development or improvements envisioned under the plan will be based entirely on voluntary participation, cooperative partnerships, and incentive -based programs. The City is committed to respecting private property rights and ensuring that no property will be taken or condemned through force or mandate.

Why is this plan being developed?
The Chapman Avenue Corridor is centered around Chapman Avenue, a critical east -west arterial in Placentia. It currently has a mix of aging commercial centers, underutilized parcels, and limited pedestrian related infrastructure. The City initiated the plan to:
• Encourage reinvestment and revitalization
• Promote compatible infill development
• Improve mobility and safety for the community
• Support local businesses and attract new opportunities • Create a cohesive urban design identity for the corridor Will this plan lead to gentrification or displacement?
No. The City of Placentia is firmly committed to ensuring that the Chapman Corridor Revitalization Plan does not result in the displacement of existing residents or businesses.

Equitable development is at the core of this effort. The Plan will include specific, proactive tools designed to protect and uplift current community members —not push them out.

What types of improvements are being considered?
The plan is proposing to include:
• Updated land use designations and zoning
• Streetscape enhancements (lighting, trees, pedestrian crossings) • Traffic calming and bike infrastructure
• Design guidelines for future developments
How does this affect my property?
For property owners, the plan is proposed to:
• Provide new development opportunities
• Increase flexibility for land use
• Offer design guidance for renovations or expansions
No private property will be redeveloped without property owner's consent, proper noticing and public input. Property rights will be respected throughout the process.

Planning Commission Action:

The Planning Commission held one Study Session and two subsequent Public Hearings 701

regarding the Chapman Corridor Revitalization Plan. On August 12, 2025, after closing the Public Hearing(s), the Planning Commission adopted a Resolution recommending that City Council find that General Plan Amendment (GPA) 2025-01, Zone Change (ZCA) 2025-03, and Specific Plan Amendment (SPA) 2025-01 are exempt under State California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines Section 15061(b)(3); and recommended approval of General Plan Amendment (GPA) 2025-01 to change the current land use designation area from existing various designations to "Specific Plan" and to make conforming Land Use Element Amendments for the project area; and, to approve Zone Change (ZCA) 2025-03, and Specific Plan Amendment (SPA) 2025-01 changing the existing Zoning for the project area from existing various Zoning designations to "Chapman Corridor Specific Plan" and establishing development standards for the "Chapman Corridor" district for the project area; and recommended adoption of the Chapman Corridor Streetscape Master Plan. As part of their recommendation of approval, the Planning Commission recommended an amendment to the Plan changing the land use designation of APN 339-033-22 (131 W. Chapman Ave.) within the Chapman Corridor Revitalization Plan to MU (Mixed -Use) in lieu of MFF (Multi- family flex), and to require that hospitality uses with the GW District are permitted only with a valid Use Permit. These recommended changes to the plan were based on Staff's recommendation and public input.

Adjustments to the Chapman Corridor Revitalization Plan based on Public Input:

As stated above, the Planning Commission recommended an amendment to the plan changing the land use designation of APN 339-033-22 (Suzy's Freeze) to MU (Mixed -Use) in lieu of MFF (Multi -family flex). Staff worked with the subject property owner to alleviate their concerns regarding the future land use of their property and the recommended land use change was made in response to the property owner's concerns. The Planning Commission recommendation to require that hospitality uses with the GW District are permitted only with a valid Use Permit was also in response to community concerns regarding a potential hotel site on the south side of Chapman Avenue. Staff had already recommended that hospitality uses require a valid Use Permit, and Planning Commission affirmed that recommendation. Based on the recommended change to the land use designation of APN 339-033-22, the proposed buildout shown in Table 3.1 (attached) has been updated.

The draft Chapman Corridor Revitalization Plan evaluated by Planning Commission included an omission/error regarding pawn shops and secondhand stores. Pawn shops were listed as "N" instead of "NP" (Not Permitted). Staff recommends that pawn shops shall remain designated "NP" (Not Permitted) in the Plan. Secondhand stores were not listed in the draft plan, but are now treated equally to other retail uses consistent with State law.

Based on public input, Staff has worked with the consultant to make other changes to the plan.

These include: specifying how building height is measured clarifying certain maximum allowable building heights when adjacent to residential uses. In the Mixed -Use designation of the Gateway West (GW) Subarea, no portion of a hospitality building shall exceed 40 feet in height within 50 feet of any residential building. The maximum height in the Mixed -Use Subarea was reduced from 65 feet to 55 feet. Throughout the Plan, other potential development in the Mixed -Use designation is limited to either 30 or 35 feet when adjust to Single -Family Residential zoning. Clarification on measuring building height has also been added. Staff, Planning Commission and elected officials have earnestly taken public input into account throughout the planning process which has spanned almost three years. Adjustments to the plan have been made subsequent to public input in an effort to address all tangible concerns.
702

CEQA:

The proposed General Plan Amendment, Zoning Code Amendment and Specific Plan was reviewed by Placeworks in accordance with the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act ("CEQA"). Based on that review, Staff and the Planning Commission recommend that the City Council find that adoption of GPA 2025-01, ZCA 2025-03, SPA 2025-01 is exempt under State California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines Section 15061(b) (3) in that it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the activity would result in a significant effect on the environment, the activity is not subject to CEQA. The proposed project is a policy document that implements the City's existing General Plan goals, policies and zoning for the Chapman Corridor. The proposed project does not include specific development projects; rather, the proposed project would implement and address general provisions, permitted uses, development and design standards, mobility and infrastructure improvements, and design guidelines to revitalize this portion of the City consistent with the General Plan. Future development projects would be subject to separate environmental review under CEQA and to compliance with the established regulatory framework including federal, state, regional and local regulations. The Draft Notice of Exemption is attached (Attachment 2).

CONCLUSION:

As one of the few gateways to the City of Placentia, the Chapman Corridor Revitalization Plan aims to allow for a vibrant mix of uses, development standards to stimulate the economic and social environment of the Chapman Corridor. Revitalizing this corridor will create an inviting entry that welcomes residents and visitors while providing connections to the adjacent districts and the City's Civic Center. New mixed -use developments in the TOD area and beyond have increased the City's housing stock and provided cafes and other businesses for residents and visitors. Chapman Avenue itself provides an efficient way to connect to the freeway, Old Town, and the Metrolink Station by driving, taking transit, cycling, or walking. This Plan allows for integrated land use patterns that encourage multimodal travel, walkability, mixed -use development, increased opportunities for residential, public/private open space, and high - quality urban design that is in scale with its respective property and its surrounding area. The Plan encourages a network of cohesive developments that revitalizes the corridor, provides a path to the Old Town and TOD Packing House Districts, and anchors the western city boundary with the City's Civic Center. Development standards and design guidelines (Chapters 4 & 5) are specially tailored for the future development of the Chapman Corridor.

Project Description:

The Chapman Corridor Revitalization Plan (proposed project) is a specific plan that would serve as the implementation tool for the refined zoning for the Chapman Corridor. The proposed project would provide permitted uses, development and design
standards, mobility and infrastructure improvements, and design guidelines. The proposed project would enhance the City's Municipal Code to further align zoning regulations with the General Plan. Where the proposed project is silent, the City's Municipal code will continue to apply, using the context and objectives of the proposed project as a guide. The proposed project would provide flexibility for commercial and residential opportunities to develop in the Chapman Corridor in accordance with the General Plan. Existing uses within the Chapman Corridor would be allowed to remain; however, proposed project would create flexibility for potential residences to convert to home businesses and for a variety of mixed -use opportunities throughout the project site.

4. The project will be rejected or disapproved by a public agency (See Section 15270[b])

5. The project is exempt pursuant to provisions of Article 12.5 of this Chapter As stated in CEQA Guidelines 15061(b)(3), where it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the activity would result in a significant effect on the environment, the activity is not subject to CEQA. "A project that qualifies for neither a statutory nor a categorical exemption may nonetheless be found exempt under what is sometimes called the 'common sense' exemption, which applies `[w]here it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the activity in question may have a significant effect on the environment'." (Muzzy Ranch at 380, citing CEQA Guidelines, § 15061(b)(3), and Davidson Homes v. City of San Jose (1997) 54 Cal.App.4th 106, 113-118).

As discussed under Project Description, the proposed project is a policy document that builds from the City's existing General Plan and zoning for the Chapman Corridor. The proposed project does not include specific development projects; rather, the proposed project would implement and address general provisions, permitted uses, development and design standards, mobility and infrastructure improvements, and design guidelines to revitalize this portion of the City consistent with the General Plan. Because the proposed project is consistent with the General Plan, the proposed project would not exceed the development proposed under General Plan buildout. The proposed project would refine the zoning regulations to further align with the General Plan. Future development projects would be subject to separate environmental review under CEQA and to May 2025 I Page 2
707

compliance with the established regulatory framework including federal, State, regional and local regulations.

Therefore, because the activity in question is adoption of a policy document, which does not entitle development and would not allow development beyond what is currently allowed in the City General Plan, there is no possibility that the proposed project would have a significant effect on the environment and is not subject to CEQA.

Donna Lewandowski, AICP, RSP2B
Subject: Chapman Corridor Revitalization Plan Streetscape Master Plan OC23-0951
As part of the Chapman Corridor Revitalization Plan, the Chapman Corridor Streetscape Master Plan is proposing Class II bike lanes from Placentia Avenue to Angelina Drive, which would replace the existing Class I I I bike route and would remove existing on -street parking.

Considerations
Placentia General Plan
The current City of Placentia General Plan (PGP) directly supports the removal of parking on all arterial streets both in general, and for the express purpose of installing Class II bicycle lanes. Chapman Avenue between Placentia Avenue and Angelina Drive is designated as a Primary Arterial roadway in the Orange County Master Plan of Arterial Highways (PGP Exhibit 3-1, page 3-9) and proposed as a Secondary Arterial roadway (PGP Exhibit 3-7, page 3-44). The PGP complies with all applicable planning laws at the time of adoption, including the Complete Streets Act (AB 1358) which requires that the City plan for all modes of transportation for all ages and abilities. The relevant guidance and policies from the General Plan are:
• This segment of Chapman is in the plan as a Proposed Class 2 Bike Lane (Go Placentia Loop Map, PGP Exhibit 3-5, page 3-31)
• Policy MOB - 2.14 Require adequate off-street parking for all land uses and eliminate parking on all arterial streets. (PGP page 3-47)
• Policy MOB - 4.18 Reduce or eliminate parking on arterial roads to provide space for expanding Class II bicycle lanes. (PGP page 3-50)
• Policy MOB - 4.4 Provide direct, continuous bicycle routes for commuter and recreational cyclists that also improve the safe passage of cyclists.
(PGP page 3-49)
• Policy MOB - 4.7 Support bikeways that minimize cyclist/motorist conflicts (PGP page 3-50) • Policy MOB - 4.9 Support and implement policies and regulations to comply with recognized bicycle infrastructure design standards of the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA), the California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) and the American Association of Highway and Transportation Officials (See AASHTO guidance below). (PGP page 3-50)
• Policy MOB - 4.11 Support policies, programs and projects that make bicycling safer and more convenient for all types of cyclists. (PGP page 3-50)
709

• Policy MOB - 4.13 Support projects and programs to facilitate safer travel by bicycle to key destinations within the community and the larger region, including the new Metrolink station, when completed. (PGP page 3-50)
• Policy MOB - 1.5 Roadway improvements and expansions shall include prioritizing public transit and shared mobility in order to address gaps in the multi -modal transit system, improve and incentivize mobility for shared vehicles, discourage single occupancy vehicles, and expand non -motorized (PGP page 3-46)
transportation options.

AASHTO Guidance
According to guidance in the AASHTO Guide for the Development of Bicycle Facilities, 5th Edition, the most appropriate bikeway type for the conditions in this corridor (35 MPH, 16,000 ADT) is a Separated Bike Lane or Shared Use Path (Class l). Due to space constraints and the desire of the City not to remove a vehicle travel lane, a Class II facility was selected as a compromise. Following the most up-to-date guidance, the current Class II I bikeway is not appropriate for this corridor, nor does it meet the desire of the community for "Enhanced Bicycle Facilities" (see "Community Input" below).

Crash Data Review
Published crash data along Chapman Avenue (adjacent to the existing on -street parking) was reviewed from the Transportation Injury Mapping System (TIMS). TIMS was developed by SafeTREC to provide access to California collision data, the Statewide Integrated Traffic Records System (SWITRS). The following data was recorded between 2013 and early 2025 (based on the available data at the time of this memo):
• 48 crashes were reported that resulted in injuries of 61 victims o 8 involved pedestrians
o 3 involved bicyclists
o 2 involved motorcyclists
• 1 collision resulted in the death of a motorcyclist
• 2 serious injuries were recorded with 1 involving a pedestrian Crash Modification Factor
According to the FHWA's Crash Modification Factor Clearinghouse, prohibiting on -street parking on minor arterials in an urban setting results in a 20% reduction in injury crashes' and a 27% reduction in property damage only crashes2.

It also noted in the Crash Modification Factor Clearinghouse that Chapman Avenue's current configuration with parking prohibited on only one side of the street is associated with a 49% increase in injury crashes.' General observations of this phenomenon is that people are more likely to make risky maneuvers to access parking on the opposite side of the street.

Based on the above, it is estimated that prohibiting on -street parking on Chapman Avenue could have reduced 10 to 24 injury crashes over the 12 -year period.

Examples of Support in Safety Literature
Effects of On -Street Parking In Urban Context: A Critical Review (2017)4:
• For high-speed streets (Free Flow Speed 35-40 mph) parking increases the crash rate entirely and even for individual crash types
• On -street parking can contribute towards safety in low -speed environments while it hinders safety in high-speed environments
• After an extensive review, this study has arrived at the conclusion that on -street parking should be restricted along major streets
Reassessing On -Street Parking (TRB 2008)5:
• It is equally important to note that high speed (>/= 35 MPH) streets with parking generally had higher crash rates at all severity levels than all other street categories SB 1216
While it is generally understood that the intent of SB 1216 is to reduce the instances of Class III bike lanes on roadways with speeds of 35 MPH and above, the law does not strictly prohibit the maintenance or establishment of Class III bike lanes on these roadways. It does, however, prohibit using sharrow (shared -lane) markings on them, and eliminates state and federal monetary support for Class III bike lanes on roadways with speeds of 35 MPH and above, which includes Chapman Avenue.

Community Input
"Enhanced Bicycle Facilities" was the second most common request noted on the public survey for the corridor, while "Pedestrian Safety Improvements" was the top request. The proposed streetscape incorporates multimodal improvements to address the top two requests from the public and will provide a safer, more accessible and more equitable environment for Placentia residents and visitors.

Chapman Corridor Revitalization Plan Streetscape Master Plan 14 712

During City Council Study Sessions, October 2023 and March 2025 Council gave direction to remove on -street parking along Chapman Boulevard to create a safe environment for all users of the street and to ensure smooth traffic flow for vehicles.

Outcomes and Tradeoffs
The proposed increase in commercial and residential uses in the corridor is anticipated to stimulate local travel, including walking and biking, and the vision of the plan is to provide safe facilities for people walking and riding bicycles. Expected outcomes of the removal of parking and installation of a Class II bike lane include:
• The removal of on -street parking spaces is supported directly by policies in the Placentia General Plan, both in general, and specifically for the installation of Class II bike lanes • The bike lanes fit within the curb -to -curb space and would not reduce vehicle capacity • A reduction in injury collisions by 20% and property damage only crashes by 27% • Increased safety of bicyclists through the corridor
• Improved equity for low-income individuals and people who do not drive, which may include persons with disabilities, young adults, students and local employees • Increased encouragement to use transit due to the improved safety of a significant first-mile/last-mile connector between the future MetroLink Station and nearby attractions, such as the college, hospital, and shopping/entertainment
• Traffic calming effects from the addition of bike lanes along with the street scape improvements due to the narrowing of vehicle travel lanes and creation a safer environment for all users of the street • The loss of 35 parking spaces

Chair Perez opened the Public Hearing at 6:41 p.m.

Development Services Director Joseph Lambert provided background on the Chapman Corridor Revitalization Plan, including its adoption and the consultant's role. The plan aims to enhance Chapman Avenue from Placentia Avenue to N. Kraemer Blvd., improving transportation, supporting economic growth, and preserving the Corridor's unique character.

Director Lambert clarified that the City will not use Eminent Domain and emphasized the voluntary participation of private property owners. The Plan includes new Zoning designations, consistent with existing ones, and aims to provide Design Guidelines for new developments. Director Lambert then introduced consultant Suzanne Schwab from Piaceworks to give a full presentation of the Chapman Corridor Project.

Consultant Schwab introduced herself and the other consultants involved in the plan including Placeworks, Fehr and Peers, and Nuvis, and then outlined the seven chapters of the plan, including Vision and Guiding Principles, Land Use Plans, and Development Standards. The plan includes sub -areas with tailored land use standards to transition along the Corridor, such as Gateway West, Gateway Core, and Gateway Neighborhood. Consultant Schwab also discussed the potential for new mixed -use developments, commercial corridor improvements, and the preservation of existing developments.

The following Public Speakers came forward to address the Planning Commission with their concerns about the proposed project: Barbara Openshaw, Denise May, Noel Andersen, Richard Geiger, Suzanne Palazuelos Geiger, Ivan Cisneros, Richard Salazar, Jack Harrison, Alicia Dillender, Carolyn Woolhouse, Blanca Lopez, Kelly Agama, Marleen Cortez, Omar Cortez, David Chun, John Walcek, Laurie Mann -Hart, Saeed Yazdi and Frank Bandera.

Public comments included concerns about the proposed development changing the nature of Chapman Avenue, the lack of public outreach regarding the project, traffic issues, the potential displacement of residents and emphasizing the need for affordable housing.

Additional residents expressed concerns about the impact on the small-town feel of Placentia and the potential for high-rise developments. Questions were also raised about alternatives, the division of homeowners, and the protection of residents from new development and its potential impacts. One resident highlighted environmental reviews and predicted increased taxes for current residents, while another complained about the short notice and lack of information provided to homeowners, particularly those at Cinnamon Tree and was concerned that there would be a potential for developers to buy out residents. There were also concerns about the impact on parking, the safety of disabled residents and transparency regarding potential development.

Chair Perez closed the Public Hearing at 8:45 p.m.

Commissioners' questions included the funding for street improvements and the potential impact on citywide development fees. Director Lambert agreed that the Chapman Corridor Plan is a set of policy tools and standards, not a requirement for development. A Commissioner suggested adding language to the trash and recycling enclosure section to ensure adequate turnaround space for trash trucks. Both Director Lambert and Consultant Placentia Planning Commission Meeting Minutes July 2025

Schwab answered questions about the mobility and infrastructure section, including the elimination of parking along Chapman and the installation of bike lanes. Director Lambert emphasized that the multi -family flex zone allows for the same density as the existing zoning and that any redevelopment of a condominium complex would require unanimous agreement among all property/condominium owners. Commissioners inquired about the feasibility of building public parking lots.

Commissioner Rocke suggested continuing the discussion about this item to a later date to allow for more community input and better understanding of the proposed changes.

Motion by Rocke second by Perez and carried on a (5-1-0-0) vote to continue this item to the next Regular Planning Commission Meeting on August 12, 2025.

The plan includes zoning changes, a new Specific Plan, and infrastructure improvements to enhance mobility and economic growth. The proposed Plan features four districts: Gateway West, Gateway Core, Gateway Neighborhood and Gateway East, with various Land Use designations in each district. The Plan aims to balance development with community needs, ensuring that existing residents and businesses are not negatively impacted.

Placentia Planning Commission Meeting Minutes August 2025

The following Public Speakers came forward to address the Planning Commission with concerns about the proposed project: Prianca Vail, Terry Monson, Suzanne Palazuelos, Barbara Openshaw, David Drake, Sergio Ruiz, Pat Evert, Noel Andersen, Kathy Hernandez, Richard Salazar, Jacob Tynes, Jana Laborde, Carolyn Woolhouse, Chuck Schiebeck, Blanca Lopez, Danielle Plum, Paul (first name only), Richard Geiger, Steve Reinstein, Elvia Torres, Dawn Lee, Jeremy Rodriguez, Bill Zavala, Frances Yu and Linda Verigne.

Anjali Tapadia, a business owner in Placentia, spoke in support of the Chapman Corridor Plan.

A letter of support was received from Elizabeth Hansburg, Cofounder and Director or People for Housing, citing the need for more new housing units, the increased potential for economic growth, streetscape enhancements, improved mobility and safety, as well as revitalized civic spaces.

Public comments opposing the Plan included concerns about traffic, property values, and the potential for high -density development. Residents highlighted the lack of adequate community outreach and the need for more time to gather input before making decisions.

Specific concerns include the potential for Eminent Domain, the impact on local businesses, and the adequacy of the traffic study. Residents requested a postponement of the vote to allow for further community engagement and to address their concerns.

Development Services Director Lambert addressed the concerns raised by the public, emphasizing that the Plan does not raise property taxes and is consistent with the General Plan. The Plan includes measures to ensure that existing residents and businesses are protected, and new developments will be conditioned to meet infrastructure requirements.

The Staff Report includes a traffic analysis and a memorandum from Fehr & Peers, which supports the Plan's consistency with traffic mobility and safety standards. The Planning Commission was reminded of their role in making recommendations to the City Council, and the importance of considering community input.

Vice Chair Rocke closed the Public Hearing at 8:30 p.m.

Commissioners' comments included acknowledging the community's concerns and reassurances that the Plan does not threaten existing homes or businesses. Also mentioned was the importance of community input on future projects as well as the utilization of Traffic Studies to ensure all projects meet City standards.

Motion by Smith second by Navarro and carried on a (5-0-0-1) vote to approve as recommended by Staff with an Amendment to change the land use designation of APN 339-033-22 (131 W. Chapman Ave.) within the Chapman Corridor Revitalization Plan to MU (Mixed -Use) in lieu of MFF (Multi -family flex), and to require that hospitality uses with the GW District are permitted only with a valid Use Permit.
