City of Rancho Cucamonga
Speedway Commerce Center Plan for Service
November 5, 2021
1 I INTRODUCTION
The Speedway Commerce Center project (the “Project”) is currently under consideration for approval by the City of Rancho Cucamonga (the "City") City Council. The Project site includes an estimated 35.73 acres of vacant land in the eastern portion of the City located approximately

1.3 miles east of Interstate 15 and approximately 1.5 miles north of Interstate 10. An estimated 92% of the Project site is currently located within the City, with the remainder located in unincorporated San Bernardino County (the “County”) within the City of Fontana Sphere of Influence. The Project has submitted a pre-zone application and annexation proposal for the portion of the Project located in the unincorporated County and certain adjacent property to the west to create a logical boundary into the City from the centerline of Napa Street, east of Etiwanda Avenue and west of the San Sevaine Channel.

While all of the Project’s building square footage is to be constructed within 32.83 acres of the Project site that is already located within the City, a remaining 2.9-acre portion of the site consisting solely of a portion of the Project’s parking lot is currently located in the unincorporated County and will need to be annexed into the City. The entire area to be annexed (the “Annexation Area”) will also include 1.9 additional acres that consist of an unmanned parcel owned by Southern Cal Edison (the “SCE Parcel”) on which transmission wires are located, and a portion of the right of way for Napa Street. The intent of this Plan for Service (“PFS”) is to provide the County of San Bernardino Local Agency Formation Commission (“LAFCO”) with sufficient information to assess which public agencies will be responsible for providing municipal services to the Annexation Area once it has been absorbed by the City. DTA is also preparing a separate PFS focusing specifically on the Cucamonga Valley Water District (“CVWD”), which will be annexing not just the Annexation Area, but also the remainder of the Project. As the remainder of the Project is already located in the City, it is not discussed in depth within this Annexation Area PFS, which is why the separate PFS is being prepared to cover the provision of wastewater services by CVWD.

While a standard PFS typically also includes information on the fiscal impacts of an annexation action on the City General Fund and the General Funds of other municipal agencies that will be providing the annexed area, this Annexation Area is different because it is expected to include only very minimal development in terms of a 2.9-acre portion of a parking lot and a 1.9-acre SCE parcel containing only electrical transmission lines. Therefore, it is anticipated that no new revenues will be generated within the Annexation Area, and the services to be provided therein will be minimal. However, DTA has previously prepared a fiscal impact analysis (“FIA”) that has been reviewed and approved by the City that analyzes the impacts of the overall Project on the City General Fund. As this FIA (the “Project FIA”) includes the small portion of the Project that is located in the Annexation Area, it will also be submitted separately from this PFS to the City for review and certification in-lieu of a new FIA analyzing just the Annexation Area.

2 In addition, as the fiscal impacts of the Project on the Rancho Cucamonga Fire Protection District (“RCFPD”) and the CHWD were not included in the Project FIA, DTA will also be preparing separate FIAs specifically focusing on the entire Project’s impacts on both of these agencies.

Notably, the CHWD fiscal analysis will be packaged together with the separate PFS for CHWD wastewater services previously discussed because the area to be annexed into CHWD will include the entire 35.73-acre Project site, not just the 4.8-acre Annexation Area.

3 II DESCRIPTION OF PROPOSED SPEEDWAY COMMERCE CENTER PROJECT AND THE 4.8 ACRE ANNEXATION AREA
A Description of the Project Site
The Project site, as depicted in Figure 1 below, encompasses approximately 35.73 acres of vacant land in the eastern portion of the City and is located directly south of the Burlington Northern Santa Fe Railway, directly west of San Sevaine Channel, north of Napa Street in the City and County, and east of the East Etiwanda Creek channel.

Figure 1: Aerial Map for Proposed Project Site
The Project site is proposed to be developed into two industrial buildings totaling approximately 655,878 square feet of new warehouse space and related on-site and off-site improvements. A summary of the land uses and building square footage (“BSF”) associated with each land use in the Project is listed below in Table 1. The conceptual site plan for Buildings A and B within the Project is illustrated in Figure 2 below.

6 III PLAN FOR SERVICE BEFORE AND AFTER ANNEXATION OF 4.8 ACRES As noted previously, the Annexation Area consists of a 4.8-acre portion of the Project and adjacent SCE Site that is currently being serviced by the County that will need to be annexed into the City. However, as neither the City nor the County provide certain required municipal services, the Annexation Area will also be subject to annexations to additional districts, as detailed below. However, as noted previously, the entire Project, as opposed to just the Annexation Area, will be annexed into CVWD to obtain sewer services. As the entire Project encompasses 35.7 acres, which is significantly larger than the 4.8-acre Annexation Area, DTA has prepared an entirely separate PFS covering wastewater services that will be submitted directly to CHWD for review and confirmation, and is not included in this PFS.

The list of municipal services necessary to serve the Annexation Area are the following:

General Government and Administrative Services;
Fire Protection and Emergency Response Services;
Sheriff/Police and Public Safety Services;
Library;
Parks and
Recreation; Animal
Control; Street
Lighting;
Landscape Maintenance;
Water;
Wastewater;
Transportation;
Flood Control and Drainage;
Utilities;
Schools; and
Solid Water Management.

Table 2, below, provides a summary of which public agencies are currently responsible for providing each type of municipal service now, prior to the annexation, as well as which public agency is anticipated to be providing that same service after the annexation. In addition, one- time development impact fees (“DIFs”) are collected by a number of public agencies to fund the capital costs of public facilities, as summarized in Section IV of this Study.

A written narrative describing the pre-annexation and post-annexation provision of each service listed above follows:

A General Government and Administrative Services
A.1 Before Annexation
The County currently provides general government and administrative services to the Annexation Area. These include certain services that the County only provides in the unincorporated County, such as planning and community development services, economic development, arterial, collector and other local road operation and maintenance (“O&M”), street lighting and local parks O&M and human resources, among other services. In addition, the County provides certain services on a Countywide basis to both cities and the unincorporated County, such as criminal justice services related to jails and courts, which include district attorney, public defender and probation services, as well as health and welfare services and other Countywide functions.

A.2 After Annexation
The City will assume responsibility for all of the administrative and general government services that had been previously provided by the County exclusively for unincorporated County areas.

As discussed above, these would include planning

9 and community development services, economic development, local road and street light O&M, etc. within the Annexation Area. The City’s road maintenance responsibilities would include the operations and maintenance of the ½ width of Napa Street that is being annexed into the City. However, the other services currently provided by the County on a Countywide basis, as also discussed above, will continue to be the County’s responsibility within the Annexation Area. These would include criminal justice services, health and welfare services, etc.

B Fire Protection and Emergency Response Services
B.1 Before Annexation
FFPD currently provides the fire protection and emergency response services to the Annexation Area. FFPD, through contract with the San Bernardino County Fire Department, serves approximately 52.4 square miles (“SM”), encompassing 42.4 SM within the limits of the City of Fontana and 10 SM within Fontana’s Sphere of Influence area (“SOI”). The Annexation Area is primarily served by Fire Station 73, located at 14360 Arrow Boulevard in Fontana. American Medical Response provides private ambulance services.

B.2 After Annexation
The RCFPD will provide the fire protection and emergency response services to the Annexation Area after its annexation. RCFPD encompasses approximately 50 SM of service area within the City limits and the City's SOI. The Annexation Area will be served by (i) the Jersey Fire Station, located at 11297 Jersey Boulevard, which is approximately 3 roadway miles west of the Annexation Area, and (ii) Day Creek Fire Station, located at 12270 Firehouse Court, which is approximately 3.3 roadway miles to the northwest of the Annexation Area. Based on its proximity to two existing fire stations, the Annexation Area will be adequately served by fire protection services, and no new or expanded unplanned facilities would be required.

In addition, the entire Project site, including the portion within the Annexation Area, is required to be annexed into Community Facilities District (“CFD”) No. 85-1 as one of the City’s conditions of development approval. CFD No. 85-1 was initially approved by the qualified voters within the CFD in a special election to authorize the levy of a special tax to fund fire suppression services and facilities within the boundaries of Archibald Avenue, Etiwanda Avenue, Highland Avenue and Fourth Street.

The American Medical Response, a private ambulance service, provides ambulance services to the Annexation Area. AMR is located at 7925 Center Avenue in Rancho Cucamonga.

10 C Wildland Fire Prevention and Protection
C.1 Before Annexation
FFPD, through a contract with the San Bernardino County Fire Department, currently provides the wildfire prevention and protection services to the Annexation Area.

C.2 After Annexation
RCFPD will provide the wildfire prevention and protection services to the Annexation Area after its annexation.

D Law Enforcement
D.1 Before Annexation
The San Bernardino County Sheriff’s Department (“SBCSD”) provides public safety services to the unincorporated areas.

2.5 roadway miles northwest of the Annexation Area. In addition, the Police Department Headquarters (SBCSD Rancho Cucamonga Patrol Station) is located at 10510 Civic Center Drive, which is approximately 3.9 roadway miles northwest of the Annexation Area. Furthermore, a joint facility including a police substation and several other municipal offices, is proposed at the Empire Lakes development located approximately 3.8 roadway miles west of the Annexation Area.

Based on its proximity to these existing and proposed police stations and their projected staffing levels, the Annexation Area will be adequately served by existing police protection services, and no new or expanded unplanned facilities would be required.

E Library
E.1 Before Annexation
Currently, the Annexation Area is served by the San Bernardino County Library system. The nearest County library is the Fontana Lewis Library & Technology Center, located at 8437 Sierra Avenue in Fontana.

11 F Parks and Recreation
F.1 Before Annexation
The County Regional Parks Department (“CRPD”) provides regional park services to all residents and employed persons within the County, including located in both incorporated and unincorporated areas. The closest regional park is Cucamonga Guasti Regional Park in Ontario, which includes recreational areas for water sports, hiking and picnicking. But CRPD’s mandate is only to provide regional park facilities, so it does not support the construction, operations or maintenance of local parks anywhere within its jurisdiction, including within the Annexation Area.

F.2 After Annexation
The City’s Community Services Department will operate and maintain the City’s local parks and recreation facilities after annexation. This City Department currently supports the operations and maintenance of over 30 local park sites within the City which are available for use by residents and employed persons located within the Annexation Area., The largest park and recreational facilities operated by this City Department includes the Community Center at Lions East and Lions West, Family Resource Center, Central Park Senior/Community Center, Rancho Cucamonga Sports Center, Epicenter/Sports Complex, and Victoria Gardens Cultural Center.

G Animal Control
G.1 Before Annexation
The San Bernardino County Animal Care and Control Program currently operates two animal shelters within the County, located in Big Bear and Devore, both of which are relatively distant from the Annexation Area.

G.2 After Annexation
The Rancho Cucamonga Animal Care and Services Department will provide animal control services to the Annexation Area after its annexation. The Department’s animal shelter facilities are located at 11780 Arrow Route in the City.

H Street Lighting
H.1 Before Annexation
The Annexation Area presently does not contain any streetlights.

H.2 After Annexation
Upon annexation, RCMU will be responsible for operating and maintaining streetlights in the Annexation Area. The Annexation Area is conditioned by the City to be annexed into SLD No. 1, which is the City’s street lighting finance district,

12 I Landscape Maintenance
I.1 Before Annexation
Currently, the County is responsible for the limited amount of landscape maintenance required within the Annexation Area.

I.2 After Annexation
Upon annexation, the City’s Public Works Department will be responsible for providing operations and maintenance services for the landscaping of any publicly owned parkways and medians within the Annexation Area, including operations and maintenance work on the ½ width of Napa Street that is being annexed into the City.

J Water
J.1 Before Annexation
FWC is a local water company currently providing water treatment, storage, and distribution of domestic water to the Annexation Area. FWC owns and operates three water treatment facilities, treating a combination of well and surface water. In 2020, water utilized within the City originated from three main sources; (i) approximately 60% groundwater, (ii) 15% local surface water, and (iii) 25% water from the State Water Project. Groundwater is produced from Chino Basin, Rialto Basin and Lytle Basin, and an unnamed basin. Local surface water from Lytle Creek and imported surface water from the State Water Project originating in Northern California are treated at the Sandhill Water Treatment Plant, a 29 million-gallon-per-day (MGD) treatment plant that is comprised of a 12 MGD Conventional filtration treatment facility and a 17 MGD Diatomaceous Earth filtration treatment facility.

IEUA is a state water contractor for the Metropolitan Water District of Southern California (“MWD”), and is a regional wholesaler that delivers water at an average of

1.5 billion gallons of water per day to a 5,200 square mile service area.

J.2 After Annexation
FWC will continue to be the retail water service provider for the Annexation Area after its annexation, and IEUA will continue to be its wholesale water supplier.

K Wastewater
K.1 Before Annexation
IEUA is a regional wastewater treatment agency and wholesale distributor of imported water that operates wastewater treatment facilities. The entire Project site, including the portion within the Annexation Area, currently does not receive any local wastewater services.

November 5, 2021
13 K.2 After Annexation
IEUA will continue to be the regional wastewater treatment agency for the Annexation Area, while the CVWD will be the local wastewater service provider for the Annexation Area. CVWD currently operates and maintains approximately 421 miles of wastewater collection system ranging from 8 to 36 inches in diameter. Wastewater generated by the Project site would be transported through this collection system and conveyed to IEUA’s RP-1 and RP-4 regional water recycling plants where it is processed into recycled water. IEUA owns and operates a system of regional trunk and interceptor sewers that transport wastewater to the regional wastewater treatment plants. In order to avoid overloading issues at any one facility, wastewater can be diverted from one regional plant to another.

As the entire Project, not just the Annexation Area, will be annexed into CVWD, a PFS and FIA are required to analyze the annexation of the entire Project into CVWD. These two analyses are being prepared separately from this Annexation Area PFS, and will be submitted to CVWD upon their completion.

L Transportation
L.1 Before Annexation
Caltrans currently operates and maintains freeways located in unincorporated County, while, as noted in Section A.1 of this study, arterials, collectors and other local roads are operated and maintained by the County Public Works Department. Omnitrans provide public transit in the unincorporated County.

L.2 After Annexation
Caltrans and Omnitrans will continue to provide freeway and public transit services to the Annexation Area once the annexation has been completed. As noted previously in Section A.2, the City will be responsible for the operations and maintenance of local roads within the Annexation Area.

M Flood Control and Drainage
M.1 Before Annexation
The County Flood Control District provides operations and maintenance services for regional flood control facilities, while any local drainage facilities, such as neighborhood detention basins, channels and bioswales are managed by the County’s Public Works Department.

M.2 After Annexation
The County Flood Control District will continue to manage regional flood control facilities on behalf of the Annexation Area, whereas the City’s Department of Public Works will take over responsibilities for the local drainage facilities cited above.

15 ONE-TIME DEVELOPMENT IMPACT
FEES

IV ONE-TIME DEVELOPMENT IMPACT FEES
Development impact fees (“DIFs”) are one-time fees utilized to fund a project’s fair share of a municipality’s infrastructure and capital needs, and are generally paid upon issuance of building permits and/or Certificates of Occupancy. As noted previously, the Annexation Area consists of

4.8 acres that will include the following anticipated land uses:

2.9 acres representing the southeast portion of the Project that is anticipated to be used solely as a portion of the Project’s parking lot;

1.9 acres of SCE-owned parcel containing transmission wires; and A portion of the Napa Street right of way.

Based on these currently proposed land uses within the Annexation Area, no structures are to be built within the area, so no DIFs are anticipated to be collected within the Annexation Area itself. Only portions of the Project outside of the Annexation Area on which structures are to be built would require the payment of DIFs, and they would be paying DIFs equal to the Project’s fair share of the capital costs of public facilities necessitated by the structures built on the Project site. Notably, if the development plan for the Project changes such that the Annexation Area would include actual development other than the currently anticipated parking lot, DIFs could be collected. However, as DIF levels generally vary dependent upon the land use types being constructed, specific fee levels cannot be assigned to the Annexation Area at this time.

GN REVIEW DRC20 20-00177 – KIMLEY-HORN FOR HILLWOOD DEVELOPMENT CO. – A request for site plan and architectural design for the development of two industrial warehouse buildings, park ing, and landscape improvements on vacant parcels located east of Etiwanda Avenue on the north of Napa Street; APN: 0229-291-54 and -46. An Environmental Impact Report is being prepared for this project.

Site Characteristics: The project site comprises two adjacent parcels - one is located within the City of Rancho Cucamonga (APN: 0229-291-54), and the other is located within unincorporated San Bernardino County (APN: 0229- 291-46) that is part of the City of Fontana’ s Sp here of Influence (SOI). The cumulat ive project area of these two parcels totals approximately 35.4 acres of land.

The proj
ect area is generally located east of Etiwanda Avenue at the north side of Napa Street, south of the Metrolink/Burlington Northern Santa Fe (BNSF) r ailway, west of the San Sevaine Channel and east of the East Etiwanda Creek channel. The project area is t raversed by Southern California Edison (SCE) transmission lines running east -west and is roughly bisected by a curved north-south rail spur. The site is generally flat and at-grade with Napa Street and is void of any trees. Napa Street is currently located within u nincorporated County, and is improved with curb, gutter, sidewalk, and streetlights.

Project Overview: The applicant proposes to a nnex the portion of the project area currently located outside the City ’s jurisdiction and subdivide the two adjacent parcels r eferenced above and create two new parcels, Parcel I and P arcel II, to accommodate the development of two new industrial warehouse buildings: Building A, located on the proposed Parce l I, totals approximately 500,648 square feet; and Building B, located on the proposed P arcel II, t otals approximately 155,230 square feet. Grading operations are proposed to be balanced on- site, with approximately 336,000 cubic yards of cut and fill.

Each building includes approximately 10,000 square feet of office area. Building A, as proposed, will have a maximum height of approximately 58.5 feet and Building B, as proposed will have a maximum height of 46 feet. Access to the proposed project is primarily off Napa St reet.

However, a new north-south road (“ Street A ”) is also proposed to be constr ucted that will provide access to Pa rcel II. No uses are proposed for either building at this time though it is anticipated that the buildings will function as warehousing, distribution/logistics facilities.

Staff notes that the applicant has also proposed an “Alternative Site Plan,” which proposes only one industrial warehouse building (Building A), totaling 500,648 square feet . In this alternative version of the project, Building A would be occupied by a potential “E-Commerce” user and Building B is replaced with a sur face level parking lot pro viding 849 parking stalls.

New Street and Relocation of SCE E asement & Infrastructure: Considering the size and scope of the project, certain public improvements are required including the aforementioned Street A .

Street A is proposed to be constructed running north -south along the westerly property line of the project area . Street A will connect Na pa Street to the south with a new planned east-west road to be located south and parallel to the Metrolink/BNSF railway. This future east-west road south of the railway is not part of the subject project and will be constructed at such time that surrounding parcels redevelop.

In addition to the new Street A, staff also notes that the project requires the relocation of an existing SCE easement and related SCE infrastructure (i.e. transmission towers and lines). This SCE easem ent currently traverses the project area in an east- west orientati on. T he project proposes to relocate a porti on of this easement to the south along N apa Street to allow for the placement of Building A. This new orientation will result in the SCE transmission towers being located along the frontage of Parcel I and in front of Building A.

Alternative Rail Serve Plan: As the project area is roughly bisected by an existing rail spur , the subject project is required to demonstrate that rail service is possible pu rsuant to Development Code Section 17.36.040.D.6. The applicant is not required to construct rail-related improvements on the property. However, the plans must demonstrate that the site could have a functional/practical rai l service if any future owner/tenant decides that rail service is required/desired.

Accordingly, the applicant has provided an Alternative Rail Serve Plan (Sheet DAB-A1.1C of the attached plan set). The applicant’s Alternative Rail Serve Plan demonstrates that Building A can accommodate rail pursuant to Development Code standards without any loss of parking or relocation of drive aisles. Building B , however, will not be able to accommodate rail service due to the site configuration, lot size, radius of the track, and the encroachment of the track onto an adjacent parcel. The applicant has provided a written justification requesting that the Planning 010

Commission co nsider eliminati ng the requirement that Building B provide rail service. This justification is included with this report (Exhibit D), as “Attachment A to Alternative Rail Serve Plan.”

Architecture: The proposed industrial warehouse buildings meet the Ci ty’s 360- degree architectural standards. Each building provides well -defined articulat ion and a varied use of architectural features creating an attractive aesthetic. For example, acknowledging the long span of each façade facing Napa Street, both Building A and Building B provide varied building heights, which start low at the corners of the buildings increasing in height toward the center of the façade facing Napa Street. This “stepped” building height provides visual interest and offers a range of building heights between 46-58 feet for Building A, and 38-46 feet for Building B.

The corner of each building facing Napa Street prov ides office tower elements which exhibit an angled concrete feature backed by reflective blue glazing and aluminum storefront framing.

Throughout each elevation, the typical concrete tilt -up façade is punctuated by panel joints, reveals, vertical glazing elements and, most notably, angled concrete features which provide an attractive and varied color pallet. These angled features break up the expanse of the façade by exhibiting bright colors including “ Knockout Orange ” ( Sherwin Williams SW 6885), “Commodore” (SW 6524) and “Limon Fresco” (SW 9030). This bright pallet provides an attractive break to the subdued color pallet of grays which otherwise dominate the buildings.

The proposed project exceeds all applicable development standards for the General Industrial (GI) district, as shown in the table below:

As noted, the applicant has included an a lternative site plan which proposes only Building A, at 500,648 square feet, inclusive of 10,000 square feet of office area. In this alternative plan, the project r equires 183 auto parking stalls and 48 trailer loading stalls and provides 1,456 auto parking stalls and 59 trailer loading stalls.

The project a lso meets all relevant landscape standards, as noted in the table above. The landscape plan proposes approximately 287 new trees which provide a variety of 24- inch and 36-inch box trees , including but not limited to , “True Green” Chinese Elm trees ( to be used as parking lot shade trees ), California Syca more, Holly Oak, and California Pepper trees.

Ornamental ground cover, shrubs and vines make up the balance of the landscaped area. Staff notes that as a condition of approval, the applicant shall provide a l andscape pl an which demonstrates that the alternative site plan will comply with all landscape standar ds prior to the issuance of building permits.

Tentative Parcel Map 20251: As mentioned, the project includes a request to approve a Tentative Parcel Map to consolidate various parcels within the project area and subdivide them into two new lots, P arcel I and Parcel II. Staff has reviewed the Tentative Parcel Map and has determined that each proposed parcel complies with the relevant development standards.

Staff recommends that the Planning Commission recommend that the City Council certify the Environmental Impact Report, make findings pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act, adopt a mitigation monitoring and reporting program, and approve General Plan Amendment (DRC2020-00184), Annexation (DRC2020- 00185), Prezoning (DRC2020-00186), Tentative Parcel Map (SUBTPM20251), Design Review (DRC2020- 00177), Conditional Use Permit (DRC2021-00317), Uniform Sign Program (DRC2020-00178) and Development Agreement (DRC2021-00175) through the adoption of the attached Resolutions.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:

The applicant Kimley-Horn and Associates, on behalf of Hillwood Enterprises, L.P., proposes the construction of two new industrial warehouse buildings totaling approximately 655,878 square feet combined on property located approximately 650 feet east of Etiwanda Avenue north of Napa Street between the East Etiwanda Creek to the west, the San Sevaine Channel to the east and the Burlington Northern Santa Fe (BNSF)/Metrolink rail line to the north. The project area comprises two parcels: APN: 0229-291-54 which totals approximately 32.83 acres and is located within the City of Rancho Cucamonga; and APN: 0229-291-46 which totals approximately 2.9 acres and is located within unincorporated San Bernardino County and the City of Fontana’s Sphere of Influence (SOI). The applicant has applied for an Annexation and Prezoning in order to consolidate the entire project area into the City’s jurisdiction under an appropriate zoning designation. The proposed Annexation also includes a

0.69-acre portion of a third parcel identified as APN: 0229-291-23, located at the northeast corner of the intersection of Etiwanda Avenue and Napa Street. This 0.69-acre parcel is also proposed to be annexed into the City to create a logical boundary between the City and the unincorporated County area, but is not within the project area, is otherwise unrelated to the Project and is not proposed to be developed. The portion of the parcel in question is currently designated by San Bernardino County with a general plan land use of General Industrial (GI) and by the City of Fontana as Public Utility (P-UC). As part of the associated request for a General Plan Amendment, this 0.69-acre portion of APN: 0229-291-23 is proposed to be designated as Heavy Industrial and assigned a pre-zone designation of Industrial Employment (IE). To be sure, the San Bernardino County LAFCO approves annexations and the applicant is expected to process the annexation through LAFCO once the project entitlements are acted upon by the City. However, the City must consent to the annexation. Reference “Figure

Figure 1: Proposed Annexation Map
The project site is largely vacant, with an existing rail spur running in a north-south orientation roughly bisecting the site which serves properties to the south and existing Southern California Edison (SCE) overhead powerlines traversing the site in an east-west orientation. The existing rail spur is proposed to remain; however, the existing overhead SCE powerlines are proposed to be relocated along Napa Street as well as through the eastern half of the site in order to accommodate the proposed project. The proposed project includes the construction of one new north-south street which will be located along the westerly property line of the project area and will be designed to eventually connect to a future east-west street located immediately south of the Metrolink railway and parallel to Napa Street. City staff proposes that this new north-south street be named Via Maris Place. The applicant and City have also negotiated a development agreement which includes a variety of provisions intended to off-set any adverse impacts the project may cause that are not otherwise mitigated through CEQA.

Pursuant to Municipal Code Section 17.14.060.B, “when a proposed project requires more than one permit with more than one approving authority, all project permits shall be processed concurrently, and final action shall be taken by the highest-level designated approving authority for all such requested permits.” The City Council is the highest-level approving authority because it must approve the General Plan and Zoning amendments and development agreement. Staff has opted to process the package of entitlements concurrently such that the Planning Commission is the recommending body for all of the entitlements.

BACKGROUND:

After the applicant submitted their application, but before it was deemed complete, the City Council enacted a moratorium on November 4, 2020 to prohibit certain industrial uses while the City updated its code standards in response to rising interest and significant demand for the development of new industrial uses and the redevelopment of legacy uses largely located within the Southeast Industrial Quadrant (SEIQ), an area of the City bounded by Arrow Route to the north, 4 th Street to the south, I-15 Freeway to the west, and the City’s jurisdictional limit line to the east. Following the expiration of the moratorium on June 30, 2021, the City Council adopted Ordinance 982 on July 7 which established new development standards for industrial projects throughout the City in response to this demand in industrial development. Notably, the applications for the subject project which had been deemed complete prior to the effective date of Ordinance 982 were exempt from the new requirements of Ordinance 982. Except for the CUP application, the subject development applications had been deemed complete on January 7, 2021, which is prior to the adoption of Ordinance 982. Pursuant to Development Code Section 17.02.020F.1, “all land use permit applications that are active and that have been determined by the planning director to be complete before the effective date of this title, or any amendments thereto, will be processed according to the regulations in effect when the application was deemed complete.” Thus, as the subject application was deemed complete prior to the adoption of Ordinance 982, it has been analyzed against standards in effect prior to the adoption of Ordinance 982.

PROJECT ANALYSIS:

The project site is currently divided between both the Heavy Industrial (HI) and Flood Control/Utility Corridor (FC/UC) General Plan land use designations. The development application also includes Prezoning to designate the parcels to be annexed into the appropriate zoning designation.

The existing General Plan and Zoning designations for the project site and adjacent properties are as follows:

*In the 2010 General Plan, APN: 0229-291-54 also includes a “floating” designation as a location for a potential public park” **Prior to the adoption of Ordinance 982, the Industrial Employment (IE) zoning district was referred to as the Heavy Industrial (HI) district and the Neo-Industrial (NI) district was referred to as the General Industrial (GI) district.

The applicant proposes to annex the portion of the project area currently located outside the City’s jurisdiction and subdivide the two adjacent parcels referenced above and create two new parcels, Parcel I and Parcel II, to accommodate the development of two new industrial warehouse buildings: Building A, located on the proposed Parcel I, totals approximately 500,648 square feet; and Building B, located on the proposed Parcel II, totals approximately 155,230 square feet. Grading operations are proposed to be balanced on-site, with approximately 336,000 cubic yards of cut and fill.

Each building includes approximately 10,000 square feet of office area. Building A, as proposed, will have a maximum height of approximately 58.5 feet and Building B, as proposed will have a maximum height of 46 feet.

Access to the proposed project is primarily off Napa Street. However, the new north-south road, Via Maris Place, is also proposed to be constructed that will provide access to Parcel II.

Staff notes that the applicant has also proposed an “Alternate Site Plan,” which proposes only one industrial warehouse building (Building A), totaling 500,648 square feet. In this alternate version of the project, Building A would be occupied by a potential “E-Commerce” user and Building B is replaced with a surface level parking lot providing 849 parking stalls. Staff notes that as of the writing of the report, the developer has submitted plans for building permit plan check for the two-building iteration of the project and this is the project before the Planning Commission for consideration. Despite this, the environmental impact report prepared for the project included an analysis of this Alternate Site plan.

New Street and Relocation of SCE Easement & Infrastructure: Considering the size and scope of the project, certain public improvements are required including the aforementioned Via Maris Place. Via Maris Place is proposed to be constructed running north-south along the westerly property line of the project area. Via Maris Place will connect Napa Street to the south with a new planned east-west road to be located south and parallel to the Metrolink/BNSF railway. This future east-west road south of the railway is not part of the subject project and will be constructed at such time that surrounding parcels redevelop.

In addition to the new Via Maris Place, staff also notes that the project requires the relocation of an existing SCE easement and related SCE infrastructure (i.e. transmission towers along with transmission, distribution, and telecommunication lines). This SCE easement currently traverses the project area in an east-west orientation.

The project proposes to relocate a portion of this easement to the south along Napa Street to allow for the placement of Building A. This new orientation will result in the SCE transmission towers being located along the frontage of Parcel I and in front of Building A.

Alternative Rail Serve Plan: As the project area is roughly bisected by an existing rail spur, the subject project is required to demonstrate that rail service is possible pursuant to Development Code Section 17.36.040.D.6. The applicant is not required to construct rail-related improvements on the property. However, the plans must demonstrate that the site could have a functional/practical rail service if any future owner/tenant decides that rail service is required/desired.

Accordingly, the applicant has provided an Alternative Rail Serve Plan (Sheet DAB-A1.1C of the attached plan set). The applicant’s Alternative Rail Serve Plan demonstrates that Building A can accommodate rail pursuant to Development Code standards without any loss of parking or relocation of drive aisles. Building B, however,

Page 13 ends

2 5
will not be able to accommodate rail service due to the site configuration, lot size, radius of the track, and the encroachment of the track onto an adjacent parcel. The applicant has provided a written justification requesting that the Planning Commission consider eliminating the requirement that Building B provide rail service. This justification is included with this report (Exhibit D), as “Attachment A to Alternative Rail Serve Plan.” Architecture: The proposed industrial warehouse buildings meet the City’s 360-degree architectural standards.

Each building provides well-defined articulation and a varied use of architectural features creating an attractive aesthetic. For example, acknowledging the long span of each façade facing Napa Street, both Building A and Building B provide varied building heights, which start low at the corners of the buildings increasing in height toward the center of the façade facing Napa Street. This “stepped” building height provides visual interest and offers a range of building heights between 46-58 feet for Building A, and 38-46 feet for Building B.

The corner of each building facing Napa Street provides office tower elements which exhibit an angled concrete feature backed by reflective blue glazing and aluminum storefront framing. Throughout each elevation, the typical concrete tilt-up façade is punctuated by panel joints, reveals, vertical glazing elements and, most notably, angled concrete features which provide an attractive and varied color pallet. These angled features break up the expanse of the façade by exhibiting bright colors including “Knockout Orange” (Sherwin Williams SW 6885), “Commodore” (SW 6524) and “Limon Fresco” (SW 9030). This bright pallet provides an attractive break to the subdued color pallet of grays which otherwise dominate the buildings.

The proposed project exceeds all applicable development standards for the General Industrial (GI) district, as shown in the table below:

Parking and Landscaping: Pursuant to Development Code Section 17.64.050, 17.64.090 and Table 17.64.050- 1, auto parking for warehouse/storage uses is based on a tiered ratio as illustrated in the table below. In addition, office areas require parking at 1 stall per 250 square feet. Further, the development code requires 1 trailer loading stall for each dock door proposed. As such, the proposed project is required to provide 183 auto parking stalls and 79 trailer loading stalls for Building A, and 97 auto parking stalls and 20 trailer loading stalls for Building B.

The table below demonstrates the project’s compliance with all parking standards:

The project also meets all relevant landscape standards, as noted in the table above. The landscape plan proposes approximately 287 new trees which provide a variety of 24-inch and 36-inch box trees, including but not limited to, “True Green” Chinese Elm trees (to be used as parking lot shade trees), California Sycamore, Holly Oak, and California Pepper trees. Ornamental ground cover, shrubs and vines make up the balance of the landscaped area.

Traffic Improvements: As a result of the proposed project, certain improvements are required to improve traffic circulation adjacent to the site, as well as in the vicinity of the SEIQ. In addition to the new north-south street proposed along the westerly property line of the site which is intended to eventually connect Napa Street to future roadways adjacent to the BNSF/Metrolink railway, additional traffic related public improvements have been included in the development agreement consisting of minor traffic signal modifications, signal timing, and pavement restriping improvements.

Entitlements Required for Proposed Development: The project requires a General Plan Amendment, a Zoning Map Amendment, Annexation, Prezoning, Tentative Parcel Map, Design Review, Conditional Use Permit, and Uniform Sign Program. Further, the applicant proposes to enter into a Development Agreement with the City, which requires the review and approval of an ordinance by the City Council.

General Plan Amendment (DRC2020-00184): Currently, the general plan land use designation for the portion of the project area located within the City (APN:0229-291-54) is split between Heavy Industrial (HI) and Flood Control Utility Corridor (FC/UC), whereas the portion of the project area located outside the City’s jurisdiction (APN:0229-291-46), is currently located within unincorporated San Bernardino County and within the City of Fontana’s Sphere of Influence. APN:0229-291-46 currently has a land use designation of General industrial Industrial (GI) under San Bernardino County and a land use designation of General Industrial (I-G) under the City of Fontana.

The proposed general Plan Amendment will: 1) Replace the Flood Control/Utility Corridor land use designation on parcel APN:0229-291-54 with a land use designation of Heavy Industrial to be consistent with the remainder of that parcel; and 2) designate the portions of the project area to be annexed with a Heavy Industrial land use designation. This includes assigning a Heavy Industrial land use designation to the 0.69-acre portion of parcel

2 5
APN:0229-291-23 which is also proposed to be annexed but is not considered as part of the project area to be developed.

Further, and pursuant to the 2010 General Plan, the portion of the project site located within the City is currently identified as having a “Floating Park” land use designation to accommodate a potential “Napa Soccer Complex” future park facility. As noted on Figure PF-1 of the 2010 General Plan, the “location of future parks are not fixed and may be adjusted to accommodate future planning needs.” This area was identified as one potential location for a park, and the City entered into a Joint-Use Agreement with the property owner in an attempt to develop a soccer complex, however through the development process the site was determined to be infeasible for park development and the Joint-Use Agreement was terminated. Thus, the proposed General Plan Amendment will also remove this Floating Park designation.

Staff notes that on November 10, 2021, the Planning Commission recommended that the City Council approve the PlanRC General Plan. The PlanRC General Plan is currently scheduled for a public hearing before the City Council on December 15, 2021. Notably, the subject development application requires review and approval by the City Council which will occur after December 15, 2021. If the subject development project is approved by the City Council prior to the adoption of the new general plan, the scope of the proposed General Plan Amendment will remain as described above.

If, though, the City Council adopts the PlanRC General Plan prior to approval of the subject development application, the following changes to the scope of the requested General Plan Amendment will necessarily occur:
The PlanRC General Plan removes the Floating Park designation, rendering the applicant’s request for the same action irrelevant.
The PlanRC General Plan removes the Flood Control/Utility Corridor Land Use designation from the project site, rendering the applicant’s request for the same action irrelevant; The PlanRC General Plan also renames the Heavy Industrial General Plan land use designation to Industrial Employment District. This change in land use designation classifications is consistent as the implementing zone of Industrial Employment (IE) permits the proposed use in either land use designation.

Staff notes that in either case, all exhibits in the General Plan will need to be updated to reflect the new city boundaries upon approval of the annexation.

Annexation (DRC2020-00185): The proposed annexation to be applied for by the applicant with LAFCO will amend the boundaries of the City of Rancho Cucamonga, as well as unincorporated San Bernardino County and the City of Fontana’s SOI by increasing the area of Rancho Cucamonga by approximately 4.8 acres as measured from the centerline of Napa Street while reducing the size of the City of Fontana’s Sphere of Influence (SOI) by an equal amount. Specifically, the applicant proposes to annex a 2.9-acre parcel identified as APN: 0229-291- 46 into the City as part of the project to be used as parking, landscaped areas, and entrance to the proposed project. The annexation also includes a portion of another parcel, APN: 0229-291-23, which is not part of the project and which is not proposed to be developed. The portion of APN:0229-291-23 to be annexed comprises

0.69 acres of land located north of Napa Street and east of Etiwanda Avenue and is proposed to be annexed in order to create a logical jurisdictional boundary along the centerline of Napa Street from San Sevaine Channel to Etiwanda Avenue. The remaining 1.21 acres falls within Napa Street. The proposed annexation and change in jurisdictional boundaries, including Sphere of Influence boundaries, will require approval by San Bernardino LAFCO.

Prezoning (DRC2020-00186): Related to the proposed annexation, the project also requires Prezoning pursuant to Development Code Section 17.22.050. APN:0229-291-46 is currently assigned a zoning classification of Regional Industrial (I-R) by San Bernardino County, and General Industrial (M-2) by the City of Fontana. Further, the aforementioned 0.69-acre portion of parcel APN:0229-291-23 is currently assigned a zoning classification of Regional Industrial (I-R) by San Bernardino County, and Public Utility (P-UC) by the City of Fontana. Approving the Prezoning application will change the zoning designation of these areas to Industrial Employment (IE) Zoning District upon approval of the annexation.

Tentative Parcel Map (SUBTPM20251): As mentioned, the project includes a request to approve a Tentative Parcel Map to consolidate the two existing parcels within the project area and subdivide them into two new parcels, Parcel I and Parcel II. Parcel I proposes an area of approximately 26.73 acres with street frontage along Napa Street and Parcel II proposes an area of approximately 8.67 acres with street frontage along Napa Street and the new Via Maris Place. Staff has reviewed the Tentative Parcel Map and has determined that it complies with the relevant development standards, subject to certain conditions of approval.

Conditional Use Permit (DRC2021-00317): While the other entitlements are exempt from Ordinance 982, these applications did not address the potential uses/tenants for the project because the project is being built on a speculative basis. Therefore, no pending use permit application was deemed complete prior to the effective date of Ordinance 982, and future uses by tenants who occupy the building will be subject to new standards under Ordinance 982. Thus, the applicant is requesting the review and approval of a Conditional Use Permit subject to Development Code Section Table 17.30.030-1 to permit the following uses on the site: Storage Warehouse, Large – Light Manufacturing, and a Large Distribution and Fulfillment Center.

Uniform Sign Program: The applicant has informed staff that the proposed project may accommodate up to four tenants. Development Code Section 17.16.060 provides that “…a uniform sign program shall be required for all new multi-tenant shipping center, office parks, and other multi-tenant, mixed-use or otherwise integrated developments of three of more separate tenants/uses that share buildings, public spaces, landscape and/or parking facilities.” Accordingly, and as the development could permit up to four tenants up to four tenants, the applicant has applied for a Uniform Sign Program.

Development Agreement (DRC2021-00175): The developer has proposed to enter into a Development Agreement with the City. Pursuant to Development Code Section 17.22.060.A.1, development agreements:

1. Increase the certainty in the approval of development projects, thereby preventing the waste of resources, reducing the cost of development to the consumer, and encouraging investment in and commitment to comprehensive planning, all leading to the maximum efficient utilization of resources at the least economic cost to the public;

2. Provide assurance to the applicant for a development project that upon approval of the project, the applicant may proceed with the project in accordance with existing policies, rules and regulations, and subject to conditions of approval thereby strengthening the public planning process, encouraging private participation in comprehensive planning, and reducing the economic costs of development;

3. Enable the City to plan for and finance public facilities, including but not limited to, streets, sewerage, transportation, drinking water, school and utility facilities, thereby removing a serious impediment to the development of new housing.

The proposed Development Agreement (hereafter referred to as the “Agreement”), includes, but is not limited to, the following major terms which are summarized below:
The term of the development agreement would initially be six years, with an option for the applicant to extend the term by nine years upon payment of $2 million. A requirement for future tenants to designate Rancho Cucamonga as the point of sale for the material handling equipment used in Project’s operations;
A requirement that the developer shall pay a “Community Benefit Fee,” in the amount of $4,300,000 in order to address the Project’s expected impacts on affordable housing demand, future greenhouse gas emissions, fire protection services, environmental justice and related impacts typically associated with large warehouse development. The applicant may receive a refund of up to 30% of the Community Benefit Fee in the event the project generates $500,000 in sales tax for a period of 3 years provided that the Developer can demonstrate that the tenant responsible for any 3 consecutive year period has a lease covering the entire term of the Development Agreement;

A requirement that the developer complete certain traffic improvements and pay a “Fair Share” contribution to the City’s Industrial Area Traffic Improvement Fund. The final amount of the Fair Share contribution is being assessed as of the writing of this report and will be determined prior to the City Council’s consideration of the project;
A requirement that the Developer may pay a fee totaling $1,400,000 in lieu of undergrounding existing utilities on the site or along streets adjacent to the site; A requirement that the developer will pay for, and construct to City standards, a new public street along the west side of the project site, which will run north-south and eventually connect to a future expanded roadway network throughout the SEIQ;
Design Review Committee: The Design Review Committee (Williams, Oaxaca and Smith), reviewed the project on February 2, 2021. No members of the public attended the meeting to speak on the item, and the Design Review Committee recommended that the item be forwarded to the Planning Commission as presented.

Public Art: The project is subject to the public art requirement provided in Chapter 17.124 of the Development Code. As an industrial development, this project would typically include artwork that has a minimum value that meets or exceeds one dollar per square foot. While the valuation of public art would be approximately $655,878 (as it is based on building square footage of the project), staff notes that pursuant to the proposed development agreement, all but $100,000 of this amount is proposed to be transferred to the proposed community benefit fee.

Fiscal Impact Analysis: The applicant has provided a Fiscal Impact Analysis prepared by DTA (2021), which was peer reviewed by Keyser Marston Associates, Inc. (KMA), a third-party consultant hired by the City. The Fiscal Impact Analysis conducted by DTA concluded the project would result in total recurring revenues of $123,300 with total recurring costs of $79,000 for a total annual recurring surplus to the City of $44,300. After analyzing the DTA study, KMA has determined that the actual anticipated annual recurring surplus to the City is more likely to be approximately $17,900. Considering this, the aforementioned Development Agreement requires that the developer contribute funds toward a Community Benefit Fee in order to offset the costs of the project to the community.

CEQA DETERMINATION:

Pursuant to the California Environmental Act (CEQA), an Environmental Impact Report (EIR) (SCH No. 2020090076), has been prepared for this project. Under CEQA, the purpose of an EIR is to inform the public about any significant impacts to the physical environment resulting from a project, identify ways to avoid or lessen the impacts, identify alternatives, and promote public participation. The contents of the EIR become a planning tool for the Planning Commission and City Council to use in determining the appropriate and best land use for the project site.

The intent of this EIR is to address and evaluate potentially significant impacts of the proposed project and identify feasible mitigation measures and alternatives that may be adopted to reduce or eliminate these impacts.

A summary of all of the project-related impacts and the recommended mitigation measures is provided in the Final EIR. The following summarizes key points in the environmental review process:

Notice of Preparation and Public Scoping Meeting: The Notice of Preparation (NOP) serves as public notification that an EIR is being prepared and requests comment and input from responsible agencies and other interested parties regarding environmental issues to be addressed in the document. In addition to the NOP, CEQA recommends conducting a scoping meeting for the purpose of identifying the range of potential significant impacts that should be analyzed within the scope of the Draft EIR. The public scoping meeting is to receive public testimony on those issues that the public would like to have addressed in the EIR as it relates to the project and environment.

Accordingly, a notice advertising both the NOP and Public Scoping Meeting was prepared for the project and circulated on September 3, 2020 to the State Clearinghouse (SCH No. 2020090076), public agencies, Native American tribes, those interested parties who had previously requested notification and all property owners within 660 feet of the subject site. The notice advertising the NOP and the public scoping meeting was also published in the Inland Valley Daily Bulletin on September 7, 2020 and made publicly available on the City’s website. The Public Scoping Meeting was held virtually over Zoom on September 17, 2020. No members of the public or any interested party provided comments at the Public Scoping Meeting. The public comment period to respond to the NOP closed on October 3, 2020 and comment letters were received from the Native American Heritage Commission, California Department of Fish and Wildlife, California Department of Transportation, San Bernardino County Department of Public Works, Inland Empire Biking Alliance, South Coast Air Quality Management District (SCAQMD), Cucamonga Valley Water District (CVWD) and the Inland Empire Utilities Agency (IEUA). Written responses to all significant environmental issues raised were prepared and made available in the Draft Environmental Impact Report (DEIR).

AB 52 and SB 18 Compliance: Notification in accordance with AB 52 was sent on December 23, 2020 to tribal communities from a list of six tribes that have requested notification by the city. Notification in accordance with SB 18 was sent out to thirteen tribal communities on August 24, 2020. In response to these notices, the San Manuel Band of Mission Indians (SMBMI) responded with comments though they did not request consultation.

Rather the SMBMI provided language which they requested be made a part of the project mitigations.

Accordingly, language from SMBMI has been incorporated into the Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program (MMRP). One other tribe (Gabrieleno Band of Mission Indians – Kizh Nation) held a phone consultation with City staff in January 2021 at which point this tribe requested a tribal monitor be on site during grading activities. Thus, the CEQA document prepared for the project reflects the requested language/mitigation measures.

Draft EIR Preparation and Circulation: Following the NOP and Public Scoping Meeting, a DEIR was prepared and was distributed to Responsible and Trustee agencies, and individuals who had requested to review the DEIR. The DEIR was distributed for a 45-day public review period on June 29, 2021 with the comment period concluding on August 13, 2021. A Notice of Availability including electronic links to the DEIR and all technical appendices was posted at the County, published in the Inland Valley Daily Bulletin, mailed to all property owners within 660 feet, interested parties requesting such notification and posted on the city’s website on June 28, 2021.

Further, and also on June 28, 2021, the DEIR and all technical appendices were provided to the Office of Planning and Research via the online “CEQAnet” portal for distribution to Responsible and Trustee agencies and hard copies of the DEIR and all technical appendices were provided for public review at the following locations:
Archibald Library – 7368 Archibald Avenue, Rancho Cucamonga, CA 91730; Paul A Biane Library – 12505 Cultural Center Drive, Rancho Cucamonga, CA 91739; Planning Department Public Counter at City Hall – 10500 Civic Center Drive, Rancho Cucamonga, CA 91730.

Comments were received from California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW), South Coast Air Quality Management District (SCAQMD), Cucamonga Valley Water District (CVWD), Southern California Regional Rail Authority (Metrolink), Local Agency Formation Commission (LAFCO) and Mitchell Tsai, Attorney at Law (on behalf of Southwest Regional Council of Carpenters).

Technical appendices and supporting documentation can be referenced on the City‘s website under the tab ”CEQA Documents Available for Review“ under the Current Projects & Planning Initiatives which can be accessed here: https://www.cityofrc.us/community-development/planning

Mitigation Monitoring Reporting Program (MMRP): In compliance with CEQA, a monitoring program has been prepared. The MMRP is a reporting program that identifies each adopted mitigation measure or project design

feature that reduces the significance level of a particular impact. The MMRP indicates responsibility and timing milestones for each mitigation measure.

Findings of Fact in Support of Determinations Related to Significant Environmental Impacts: The EIR concludes that upon implementation of the project and all recommended mitigation measures, impacts associated with the project would remain less than significant. No significant and unavoidable impact was identified; thus, it is determined that no Statement of Overriding Consideration is required to be adopted.

CORRESPONDENCE:

A notice of public hearing was mailed to all property owners within 1,500 feet of the subject property, the site was posted, and a notice of public hearing was published in the Inland Valley Daily Bulletin on November 24, 2021. To date, no comments or correspondence have been received in response to these notices as of the writing of this report.

COUNCIL MISSION / VISION / GOAL(S) ADDRESSED:

The development of the project achieves the City Council’s Core Value of “Intentionally embracing and anticipating the future,” and “continuous improvement.” In addition to providing the City with new industrial warehouse facilities which will attract quality tenants, the project also results in the construction of a new public street which will improve future circulation in the SEIQ by providing an additional north-south connection on Napa Street which will connect with the future expanded road network throughout the SEIQ.

INITIATED BY: Robert Neiuber, Human Resources Director
SUBJECT: Consideration to Approve an Amendment to the City Manager’s Employment Agreement. (CITY)
RECOMMENDATION:

Staff recommends that the City Council approve the attached amendment to the employment agreement between the City Council of the City of Rancho Cucamonga and the City Manager, John R. Gillison.

BACKGROUND:

On July 6, 2011, the City Council approved an employment contract with John Gillison to serve as City Manager with an effective date of September 1, 2011. That agreement provides for performance reviews with consideration for annual merit salary increases. The agreement has been amended from time to time since originally approved.

ANALYSIS:

City Council members recently completed their performance evaluation of John R. Gillison. The performance evaluation covered the period of November 2020 to November 2021. Based on the overall performance rating from that evaluation, the City Council now desires to approve a two and one-half percent (2.5%) merit increase. The merit increase is consistent with the personnel rules as applied to all other city employees. In addition, the City Council agrees the City contribute an additional two and one-half percent (2.5%) of Employee’s base salary into the Employee’s Health Reimbursement Arrangement (HSA), for a total of 11%. The effective date would be the first full pay period after Council approval.

Staff recommends that the City Council approve the attached amendment to the City Manager’s contract.

FISCAL IMPACT:

The changes to the contract will result in an annual increase of $15,730.

COUNCIL MISSION / VISION / GOAL(S) ADDRESSED:

Approving this amendment to the City Manager’s contract provides the ongoing leadership necessary to forward the Mission, Vision, Core Values, and Goals of the City Council.
