INITIATED BY: Noah Daniels, Finance Director
Kelly Guerra, Special Districts Analyst
SUBJECT: Consideration of the City Council to Reappoint and Update the Term of Committee Members to the Community Parks and Landscape Citizens' Oversight Committee. (CITY)
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends that the City Council approve and reappoint Velma Gilbert to the Community Parks and Landscape Citizens' Oversight Committee and approve the update of Denise Garzaro's term date to align with two other committee member terms.
BACKGROUND:
On August 7, 2019, the City Council adopted Resolution 19-075, establishing the Community Parks and Landscape Citizens' Oversight Committee (the "Committee"). The purpose of the Committee is to review the annual financial audits of certain districts to provide oversight of the revenues and to communicate with property owners regarding how their community parks and landscaping are maintained and funded.
Per the Resolution, a City Council Subcommittee recommends that committee members be appointed to the City Council. Appointed committee members serve four-year terms. One Committee Member's term is expiring on April 1, 2024, and another Committee Member's is updating the term date to align with other Committee Member's terms expiring on April 6, 2026.
ANALYSIS:
On February 26, 2024, the City Clerk's advertised a Notice of Upcoming Vacancies for the Committee, open until March 7, 2024. The City Clerk only received an application from existing Committee Member Velma Gilbert. As stated, no other applications responded to the solicitation by the close of the application period.
Since there were no new applicants and the existing Committee Member has expressed her desire to continue serving, it is recommended that the City Council reappoint the applicant to the Committee. The City Council Subcommittee did not formally interview the applicant as she is an existing member, is already aware of her roles and responsibilities on the Committee, and has served the community's best interest.
On August 1, 2022, Committee Member Denise Garzaro was reappointed. At that time, her term was extended to August 2026; however, in the same year, two other Committee Members' terms expire in April 2026, and it would be ideal to align all three Committee Members to the same date.
2 2
5 4
City staff has reached out to Committee Member Denise Garzaro, and she is agreeable to the change in her term date.
In summary, with the recommendations above, the Committee Members will serve the Committee for the following terms:
•Velma Gilbert, April 1, 2024, to August 31, 2027
•Denise Garzaro, August 1, 2022, to April 6, 2026
FISCAL IMPACT:
There is no fiscal impact.

SUBJECT: Consideration of the Purchase of Two Type-3 Brush Fire Engines Utilizing Department of General Services State of California Statewide Contract 1- 22-23-21B with Boise Mobile Equipment Fire Trucks, LLC in the Amount of $899,120. (FIRE)
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends the Fire Board authorize the purchase of two (2) Type-3 Brush Engines utilizing Department of General Services (“DGS”) State of California Statewide Contract 1-22-23-21B awarded to Boise Mobile Equipment (“BME”) Fire Trucks, LLC in the amount of $899,120.
BACKGROUND:
As part of the annual budget preparation process, the Fire District reviews the current vehicle and apparatus inventory list and identifies those units’ needing replacement. This evaluation considers the mileage, current age and actual years of operation compared to expected years, mechanical condition, and repair history.
Per the 2016 edition of the National Fire Protection Association Standard for Automotive Fire Apparatus (NFPA) 1901 “Standard for Automotive Apparatus” guidelines, to maximize firefighting capabilities and minimize risk of injuries, it is important that fire apparatus be equipped with the latest safety features and operating capabilities. In the last 10 to 15 years much progress has been made in upgrading functional capabilities and improving the safety features of fire apparatus.
NFPA 1901 recommends apparatus more than 15 years old be placed in reserve status and removed within 25 years. A fire apparatus is an emergency vehicle that must be relied on to transport firefighters safely to and from an incident and to operate reliably and properly to support the mission of the Fire District. A piece of fire apparatus that breaks down at any time during an emergency operation not only compromises the success of the operation but might jeopardize the safety of the firefighters.
Beginning in FY 2021-22, the Fire District began implementation of a 10-year apparatus replacement plan. The replacement plan identified the need to purchase a Type-1 Fire Engine every fiscal year over the next 10 years due to the aging fleet. Subsequently, the Fire District purchased a Type-1 Engine in both FY 2021-22 and 2022-23 and budgeted to purchase another in current FY 2023-24.
2 1
7 6
The 10-year apparatus replacement plan also identified the need to replace the Fire District’s two Type-3 Brush Engines (102-08 & 91-06) which are 16 and 18 years old. These units have a number of maintenance issues and are 2-wheel drive which limits their ability to respond to areas with rough terrain. To delay the need to purchase new Type-3 Brush Engines, the Fire District entered into agreements with the California Office of Emergency Services (OES) in 2015 for a Type-3 4x4 Brush Engine and again in 2022 for a Type-6 4x4 Brush Engine. This has been very successful in extending the life of the Fire District’s wildland fleet; however, replacement can no longer be delayed due to the age, increase in maintenance issues (cost and ability to get parts), and downtime of the Fire District’s current Type-3 Brush Engines.
ANALYSIS:
The Fire District has made significant progress in the replacement of Type-1 Engines. Medic Engine 171 was placed into service at the Amethyst Fire Station in April of 2022. Medic Engine 178, the Fire District’s first Type-1 Electric Engine, will be placed into service in March 2024.
Lastly, the Fire District has two additional Type-1 Fire Engines in the build process with a projected delivery in early 2025.
The Fire District anticipated replacing the Type-3 Brush Engines in FY 2024-25. However, due to the progress in the replacement of Type-1 Engines, as well as the increasing number of maintenance issues impacting use of the current Type-3 Brush Engines, staff recommends reallocating the current FY 2023-24 funding from the replacement of one (1) Type-1 Engine to the replacement of two (2) Type-3 Brush Engines. Due to this reallocation of funds, replacement of the one (1) Type-1 Engine will now be included in the Fire District’s FY 2024-25 budget requests.
Staff recommends utilizing DGS State of California Statewide Contract 1-22-23-21B awarded to BME Fire Trucks, LLC for the recommended purchase of the two (2) Type-3 Brush Engines. Per the City of Rancho Cucamonga’s Municipal Code (RCMC), Section 3.08.070, the City may award contracts when the purchase is beneficial to the interest of the City and is from a supplier who has been awarded a specific item or items in a contract resulting from a formal competitive bid process by another governmental agency within the State of California or by the federal government within the last year.
DGS State of California Statewide Contract 1-22-23-21B is a competitively bid and awarded contract for the procurement of wildland engines. Procurement has reviewed the DGS bid documents and contract and is satisfied that the solicitation process and terms meet the Fire District and City's requirements. The Fire District’s Apparatus Committee thoroughly reviewed the RFP specifications and determined that they were consistent with the Fire District’s requirements for a Type-3 Brush Engine.
Staff recommends that the Fire Board authorize the purchase of two (2) Type-3 Brush Engines in the amount of $899,120 from BME Fire Trucks, LLC utilizing the DGS State of California Statewide Contract 1-22-23-21B.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The purchase of one (1) Type-1 Engine was approved in the FY 2023-24 budget. A total of $1,000,000 is allocated in the Fire Protection Capital Fund under account 3288501-5604 (Capital Outlay-Vehicles). Staff recommends reallocating this funding to purchase two (2) Type-3 Brush Engines for a total purchase price of $899,120. This will result in a savings of $100,880 for the current fiscal year.

SUBJECT: Consideration of a Professional Services Agreement with PumpMan SoCal for Routine Maintenance of Pumping Systems in an Amount Not to Exceed $50,000 Annually. (CITY/FIRE)
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends the City Council and Fire Board of the Rancho Cucamonga Fire Protection District award and authorize the execution of a Professional Services Agreement (PSA) with PumpMan SoCal to provide routine maintenance of pumping systems effective through June 30, 2025, with an option to renew in one (1) year increments up to a total of six (6) additional years, in an amount not to exceed $50,000 annually and $350,000 over the duration of the seven-year contract.
BACKGROUND:
The Public Works Services Department (PWSD), the Rancho Cucamonga Fire Protection District (RCFPD), and the Procurement Division routinely issue requests for proposals to ensure vendor services remain competitive. Public Works staff drafted a detailed scope of work to solicit bids for routine maintenance and repair services for irrigation booster pumps, sump pumps, and other various pumps for City and Fire District facilities and landscapes. Previously, a contract was obtained through an open market bid process with a not to exceed limit of $20,000 for as-needed services. Typically, these services were utilized in an on-call capacity however, due to increasing costs and a need for continual routine maintenance, PWSD solicited bids through a Request for Proposals (RFP) process to increase the spending limit and provide the appropriate level of service. This will assist the PWSD in reducing costly repairs and extend the useful life of our equipment through a routine, preventative maintenance program.
PWSD provided the scope of work to the Procurement Division to prepare a formal Request for Proposal (RFP). The Procurement Division prepared and posted RFP #23/24-002 to the City’s automated procurement system. One hundred fifty-five (155) vendors were notified of the solicitation, twenty-four (24) prospective vendors downloaded or viewed the bid package, and only one (1) vendor response was received and was considered non-responsive by the City’s Procurement Division. After vendor outreach was conducted, RFP #23/24-004 was reposted and one hundred fifty-four (154) vendors were notified of the solicitation, twenty (20) prospective vendors downloaded or viewed the bid package, and three (3) responses were received.
2 2
6 5
ANALYSIS:
An Evaluation Committee consisting of City staff conducted a thorough analysis of the RFP responses and scored and ranked the responsive proposals in accordance with the criteria specified in the RFP. The outcome of the evaluation process determined PumpMan SoCal to be the most responsive vendor providing the best value while meeting the scope of services and specifications required. Therefore, staff recommends the City Council and Board of Directors award a contract to PumpMan SoCal through June 30, 2025 and an option to renew in one (1) year increments in an amount not to exceed $50,000 annually and $350,000 over the duration of the seven-year contract. The annual cost for a contract with PumpMan SoCal includes biannual preventative scheduled maintenance to various City and Fire District pumps.
If approved, a copy of the executed contract will be on file in the City Clerk’s Office.
FISCAL IMPACT:
This contract price is within the proposed amended budget contract services line items in various Landscape Maintenance District accounts for irrigation booster pump repairs and various General Fund accounts for facility sump pump maintenance.

SUBJECT: Consideration to Approve a Master Services Agreement with Bluefin Payment Systems LLC for Gateway Encryption Services in the Amount of $9,100 Plus a 10% Contingency for the Lewis Family Playhouse and Randall Lewis Second Story and Beyond® Services. (CITY) RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends the City Council:
1. Approve the Master Services Agreement for Bluefin Payment Systems LLC for gateway encryption services for a three (3) year contract with the option to renew on a one (1) year basis in an amount not to exceed $10,010 ($9,100 + 10% contingency) annually.
2. Authorize an appropriation in the amount of $5,010 from the Second Story and Beyond ® Fund Balance and $5,000 from the General Fund Balance to fund the above contract.
BACKGROUND:
In September 2023, AudienceView Ticketing Corporation was approved to be the ticketing vendor for the Lewis Family Playhouse and the Randall Lewis Second Story and Beyond ® (RLSSAB).
City staff are working with AudienceView to set up a ticketing service for the discovery space and theater. In October 2023, the City was notified that a gateway encryption service will be required to communicate with the AudienceView software and provide validated point to point encryption (P2PE) to process credit card transactions. Credit cards processed through AudienceView require a compatible payment gateway and credit card processing system.
ANALYSIS:
The Master Services Agreement with Bluefin Payment Systems LLC will ensure the authorization of credit card payments by processing the transactions from AudienceView to Bluefin Payment Systems LLC (payment gateway), through financial institutions, and to Elavon, the current City credit card processor. Bluefin hosts a variety of ways to complete transactions including tap-to- pay support which offers visitors additional payment options.
Staff have reviewed options for gateway payment services that are compatible with ticketing and card processing systems and are recommending City Council approve the single source and Master Services Agreement for Bluefin Payment Systems LLC. This vendor processes, defends, and devalues sensitive information that’s exchanged thereby protecting the City and visitors from
2 1
6 2
data breaches. As the first North American company to market with a PCI-validated P2PE solution as a service, they have led the industry in encryption and tokenization defense for over a decade. 35,000 companies are using Bluefin Payment Systems LLC in 60 different countries, and they are a leader with a proven track record in data security.
Contracting with Bluefin Payment Systems LLC will provide hardware and gateway payment solutions for three years with an option to renew annually.
Copies of all supporting documents are on file with the City Clerk and Procurement Offices.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Anticipated costs are estimated to be as follows:
Expenditure Category Amount
Master Services Agreement Contract $9,100
Master Services Agreement Contract Contingency (10%) $910 Estimated Costs $10,010
Adequate funds are available in the adopted Fiscal Year 2023/24 Budget from the General Fund (001) and Second Story and Beyond ® Fund (710). Funding is identified under the Capital Improvement Project Account as follows:

RECOMMENDATION:
To accept a single source procurement for secure payment gateway provider Bluefin Payment Systems LLC (Bluefin) to serve as the credit card processing service for the Lewis Family Playhouse (LFP) and Randall Lewis Second Story and Beyond® (SSAB).
BACKGROUND:
Through a competitive bid, on September 6, 2023, the City of Rancho Cucamonga awarded and approved the use of AudienceView Ticketing Corporation for the Lewis Family Playhouse and Randall Lewis Second Story and Beyond®. Bluefin serves as the main secure payment gateway partner for AudienceView and is required as part of the AudienceView platform integration.
ANALYSIS:
Bluefin is one of only two compatible secure payment gateway providers that can process credit card transactions and successfully communicate between the AudienceView ticketing platform and the City of Rancho Cucamonga’s internal merchant services and payment platform, Elavon.
The alternative provider, PayPal is significantly more expensive per transaction while providing less value in the form of security and encryption.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The cost of services provided by Bluefin will be based on the number of credit card transactions generated by the Lewis Family Playhouse and Randall Lewis Second Story and Beyond ®.
Based on general estimates of a combined 51,000 credit card transactions annually, we anticipate $7,700 in cost per 12-month period. Adequate funds are available in the adopted Fiscal Year 2023-2024 Budget from the General Fund (001) and the Library Capital Fund (329) for any costs incurred in this current fiscal year.

Date: ____________________________
RECOMMENDATION:
To accept a single source procurement for secure payment gateway provider Bluefin Payment Systems LLC (Bluefin) to serve as the credit card processing service for the Lewis Family Playhouse (LFP) and Randall Lewis Second Story and Beyond® (SSAB).
BACKGROUND:
Through a competitive bid, on September 6, 2023, the City of Rancho Cucamonga awarded and approved the use of AudienceView Ticketing Corporation for the Lewis Family Playhouse and Randall Lewis Second Story and Beyond®. Bluefin serves as the main secure payment gateway partner for AudienceView and is required as part of the AudienceView platform integration.
ANALYSIS:
Bluefin is one of only two compatible secure payment gateway providers that can process credit card transactions and successfully communicate between the AudienceView ticketing platform and the City of Rancho Cucamonga’s internal merchant services and payment platform, Elavon.
The alternative provider, PayPal is significantly more expensive per transaction while providing less value in the form of security and encryption.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The cost of services provided by Bluefin will be based on the number of credit card transactions generated by the Lewis Family Playhouse and Randall Lewis Second Story and Beyond®. Based on general estimates of a combined ,000 credit card transactions annually, we anticipate $7,700 in cost per 12-month period. Adequate funds are available in the adopted Fiscal Year 2023-2024 Budget from the General Fund (001) and the Library Capital Fund (329) for any costs incurred in this current fiscal year.
COUNCIL GOAL(S) ADDRESSED:
Providing superior services to residents enhances the overall quality of life in Rancho Cucamonga and will support the City Council Core Values to build and preserve the City’s family -oriented atmosphere and intentionally embrace and anticipate the future.

INITIATED BY: Shelly Munson, Director of Innovation and Technology Lilyan Villarreal, Deputy Director of Innovation & Technology SUBJECT: Consideration to Approve a Contract with ECS Imaging Utilizing a Cooperative Contract through OMNIA Partners for Laserfiche, Document and Records Management Software Solution and for Priority Support Services in the Amount of $116,600. (CITY)
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends the City Council approve the use of the OMNIA Partners, Region 14 ESC-TX #01-158 Cooperative Agreement for the procurement of Laserfiche, document and records management software, along with Priority Support Services, not to exceed $116,600 in total value through the expiration of the agreement on November 30, 2025.
BACKGROUND:
The City uses Laserfiche software solution to maintain the City’s documents such as contracts, agreements, approved plans, and other essential documentation. The software facilitates the process of storing and indexing various documentation along with simplifying the retrieval of needed information. Laserfiche enables the City to effectively and efficiently maintain organization of all of its paperwork. The City Clerk Services Department uses Laserfiche to gather the essential documentation in one central repository. Across the City, departments use it to look for necessary information and documentation retrieval. Additionally, the City makes use of its ability to create forms to gather needed input from various stakeholders such as City staff or the public. The software has the ability to build in workflows, which automatically moves documents along to the necessary staff members.
ANALYSIS:
In 2019, the Department of Innovation & Technology posted a request for bid to purchase the Laserfiche software license. The contract recently fulfilled its five year term. In order to renew the license, the City will need to sign a new agreement. To ensure a smooth transition and continuity of services, it is recommended to contract with a Laserfiche premier partner. A premier partner is a vendor that has been vetted by Laserfiche and is an authorized reseller of the license.
Additionally, it is recommended to use the OMNIA Partners cooperative agreement. OMNIA Partners provides public sector participants access to purchasing contracts with leading national suppliers, delivering volume discounts, and streamlined procurement process for technology products and services. The contract was awarded based on pricing, ability to service the contract, references, technology, and value-added products and services. It is recommended to award the contract to ECS Imaging, Inc., as they are a Laserfiche premier partner, who was listed as an approved reseller in the OMNIA Partners cooperative agreement.

6 6
DoIT reviewed the Master Agreement with the City’s Procurement Division and has determined that the terms and process of the contract meet the City’s procurement standards.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The Laserfiche contract was included in the FY23/24 Adopted Budget and therefore no additional funds will be required. Staff will request funds through the City’s annual budget process to cover the cost of post-annual renewals with an expected increase of 5% year-over-year.
COUNCIL MISSION / VISION / VALUE(S) ADDRESSED:
This item addresses the City Council’s Core Value of intentionally embracing and anticipating our future.

FROM: John R. Gillison, City Manager
INITIATED BY: Matt Marquez, Planning and Economic Development Director Flavio Nunez, Management Analyst II
SUBJECT: Consideration of Approval and Execution of a Purchase and Sale Agreement Between the City of Rancho Cucamonga and San
Bernardino County Transportation Authority (SBCTA) for Property Commonly Known as 7089 Etiwanda Avenue, APN 0227-121-56-0-000 and Authorize the Appropriation and Expenditure of Funds for the Purchase of Vacant Land in the Amount of $1,315,300.00 from Capital Reserve Fund 025. (CITY)
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends the City Council approve the Purchase and Sale Agreement and authorize an appropriation from Capital Reserve Fund (025) in the amount of $1,315,300.00 for the acquisition of vacant land located at 7089 Etiwanda Avenue (Subject Property), related due diligence and closing costs and authorize the City Manager to execute documents related to the purchase of the property.
BACKGROUND:
In 2001, the City entered into a Lease Agreement with San Bernardino County Transportation Authority (SBCTA) for the Subject Property for the purpose of establishing a trailhead along the Pacific Electric Trail and eventual rehabilitation and restoration of the historic Etiwanda Depot structure. In 2010, .54 acres of the Subject Property were acquired by the City which included the Etiwanda Depot structure from SBCTA. In addition, the Lease Agreement was amended to extend the lease term, add a right of first refusal to allow the City to purchase the balance of the Subject Property and make other agreed upon modifications to the lease.
ANALYSIS:
In August 2023, SBCTA determined the Subject Property to be surplus and agreed to sell the property to the City. Both the City and SBCTA have agreed to a purchase price for the fair market value of $1,300,000.00 based on an appraisal report dated April 21, 2023. Acquisition of the Subject Property will allow the City to properly plan for the rehabilitation, and adaptive reuse of the Etiwanda Depot structure and surrounding property. As a national historic landmark, the City is all but prohibited from undertaking development that does not preserve the cultural resources on the site.
2 2
7 2
FISCAL IMPACT:
Funds for the purchase of the property will be appropriated from the Capital Reserve Fund (025) in the amount of $1,315,300.00 into account 1025001-5600 for the purchase price, title and escrow fees, and environmental assessment of the site. A summary of the cost associated with the acquisition of the property are outlined below.
DESCRIPTION COST
Purchase Price $ 1,300,000.00
Title Insurance (ALTA Policy) $ 3,800.00
Estimated Closing Cost $ 5,000.00
Environmental Investigation $ 6,500.00
Total $ 1,315,300.00
COUNCIL MISSION / VISION / VALUE(S) ADDRESSED:
Acquisition of the Subject Property achieves the City Council’s goal to enhance the City’s premier community status. As the City matures there is less developable land that allows the City to expand services and protect cultural resources. The acquisition of the property will enhance Rancho Cucamonga’s position as a premier community in the region and allow for historic resources to be preserved. In fact, RC-4.5 of the City’s General Plan encourages the feasible rehabilitation and adaptive reuse of older buildings.

SUBJECT: Consideration of Resolution No. 2024-017, a Resolution of the City Council of the City of Rancho Cucamonga, California, Rescinding Resolution of Necessity No. 2022-011, a Resolution of the City Council of the City of Rancho Cucamonga, California, Declaring Certain Real Property Interests Necessary for Public Purposes and Authorizing the Acquisition Thereof in Connection with the Etiwanda Grade Separation Project (Temporary Construction Easement Over a Portion of APN 0229- 162-15). (RESOLUTION NO. 2024-017) (CITY)
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends the City Council adopt Resolution No. 2024-017, which is a resolution of the City Council of the City of Rancho Cucamonga rescinding Resolution of Necessity No. 2022-011, a resolution of the City Council of the City of Rancho Cucamonga, California, declaring certain real property interests necessary for public purposes and authorizing the acquisition thereof in connection with the Etiwanda Grade Separation Project.
BACKGROUND:
The City Council has before it a proposed resolution to rescind Resolution of Necessity No. 2022- 011, which was adopted for the acquisition by eminent domain of certain real property interests in connection with the City’s Etiwanda Grade Separation Project (Project).
The Project requires the acquisition of additional right-of-way for grade separation and related purposes. The Project involves the widening and construction of Etiwanda Avenue as a four-lane grade separated roadway over the Southern California Regional Rail Authority (SCRRA)/Burlington Northern and Santa Fe Railroad (BNSF) San Gabriel subdivision, currently a two-lane at-grade crossing.
The City sought to acquire an approximate 5,011 square foot temporary construction easement with a term of 18 months (Subject Property Interests) over a portion of the real property located at 8821 Etiwanda Avenue, Rancho Cucamonga, and further identified as San Bernardino County Tax Assessor’s Parcel Number 0229-162-15 (Subject Property). The City sought the Subject Property Interests for the Project.
Pursuant to Government Code Section 7260 et seq., the City obtained a fair market value appraisal of the Subject Property Interests. The City set just compensation in accordance with the appraised fair market value and extended a written offer to the owner of the Subject Property

on October 26, 2021. Unable to reach a negotiated settlement with the owner, the City provided written notice to the owner of the City Council’s intent to consider the adoption of a Resolution of Necessity for the acquisition of the Subject Property Interests by eminent domain.
On January 19, 2022, the City Council of the City of Rancho Cucamonga held a public hearing in accordance with Eminent Domain Law (California Code of Civil Procedure Section 1230.010 et seq.) and adopted Resolution No. 2022-011, a resolution of the City Council of the City of Rancho Cucamonga, California, declaring certain real property interests necessary for public purpose and authorizing the acquisition thereof in connection with the Etiwanda Grade Separation Project (Temporary Construction Easement Over a Portion of APN 0229-162-15). Resolution No. 2022- 011 found and determined that the public interest and necessity require the acquisition of the Subject Property Interests for the Project, and authorized the City’s legal counsel to commence and prosecute legal proceedings to acquire the Subject Property Interests by eminent domain.
After the adoption of Resolution No. 2022-011 but prior to the City’s initiation of an eminent domain proceeding, the City entered into an Agreement for Purchase and Sale and Escrow Instructions (Agreement) for the City’s purchase of the Subject Property Interests. After the Agreement was executed, the City determined that it required property interests on the Subject Property different from those identified in Resolution No. 2022-011 (Updated Property Interests). The City and owner of the Subject Property attempted to negotiate for the City’s acquisition of the Updated Property Interests; however, negotiations stalled and the Agreement lapsed.
ANALYSIS:
The City no longer seeks to acquire the Subject Property Interests identified in Resolution of Necessity No. 2022-011 because they are no longer required for the Project. This has rendered the acquisition of the Subject Property Interests by eminent domain unnecessary. Accordingly, it is necessary for the City to rescind Resolution No. 2022-011.
The City is authorized to rescind Resolution No. 2022-011 pursuant to Code of Civil Procedure Section 1245.260(c), and other provisions of law.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The Etiwanda Grade Separation Project, including right-of-way acquisition and legal fees, has been funded primarily through Senate Bill (SB) 1 Trade Corridor Enhancement Program (TCEP) grant funds. The City has determined that, because the Subject Property Interests are no longer necessary as identified in Resolution of Necessity No. 2022-011, rescinding this Resolution will allow the escrow deposit associated with the Agreement to be returned.
COUNCIL MISSION / VISION / VALUE(S) ADDRESSED:
The proposed Etiwanda Grade Separation Project will enhance the City’s position as the world class community in our region by improving safety, traffic flow, and access to the southeast industrial area of the City.

A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF RANCHO
CUCAMONGA, CALIFORNIA, DECLARING CERTAIN REAL PROPERTY
INTERESTS NECESSARY FOR PUBLIC PURPOSES AND AUTHORIZING THE
ACQUISITION THEREOF IN CONNECTION WITH THE ETIWANDA GRADE
SEPARATION PROJECT ( TEMPORARY CONSTRUCTION EASEMENT OVER A PORTION OF APN 0229- 162- 15)
WHEREAS, the City of Rancho Cucamonga (" City") is a municipal corporation in the County of San Bernardino, State of California; and
WHEREAS, the City seeks to construct the Etiwanda Grade Separation Project(" Project").
The Project requires the acquisition of additional right of way for grade separation. The Project involves the widening and construction of Etiwanda Avenue as a four- lane grade separated roadway over the Southern California Regional Rail Authority (" SCRRA")/ Burlington Northern and Santa Fe Railroad (" BNSF") San Gabriel subdivision, currently a two- lane at-grade crossing. The Project will construct an overhead crossing, utilizing walls and embankments to support the raised approaching roadway. It will span the railroad right- of- way and provide access to adjacent properties. The Project will widen Etiwanda Avenue to four traffic lanes including a painted median/ left turn lane with bike lanes and sidewalks on each side and a northbound right turn lane onto Whittram Avenue. When completed in 2024, the Project will reduce vehicle and truck delays, as well as queuing. It will improve mobility, safety, and level of service at the crossing, and it will provide for the safe transit of pedestrians, bicyclists, vehicles, trucks, and trains. Furthermore, the Project will provide for improved response times in the area for first responders such as police officers, firefighters, paramedics, and emergency medical technicians.
All work is consistent with the City's General Plan of Circulation. The Plans for the Project are on file with the Engineering Services Department and are incorporated herein by this reference; and WHEREAS, the environmental effects of the Project were studied and analyzed pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (" CEQA"), Public Resources Code Section 21000 et seq., and the CEQA Guidelines, 14 Cal. Code Regs. Section 15000 et seq. (" CEQA Guidelines").
City Staff determined that the Project was statutorily exempt pursuant to CEQA Article 18.
Statutory Exemptions, Section 15282. Other Statutory Exemptions, paragraph ( g) as a railroad grade separation project which eliminates and existing grade crossing or reconstructs an existing grade separation. The City Council approved the Notice of Exemption and authorized Staff to file the Notice of Exemption with the Office of Planning and Research and the County clerk as specified in Section 21080. 13( 2) of the Public Resources Code. Said Notice of Exemption was filed with the Office of Planning and Research and with the County of San Bernardino on or about June 11, 2018 in accordance with the statutory requirements; and WHEREAS, in connection with the proposed Resolution of Necessity, on January 19, 2022, City Staff reviewed the environmental documentation prepared in connection with the Project. Pursuant to the criteria of Section 15162 of the CEQA Guidelines and Section 21166 of the Public Resources Code, City Staff concluded that no substantial changes have occurred in the Project, no substantial changes have occurred in the circumstances under which the Project is undertaken, and that the City has obtained no new information of substantial importance that would require further environmental analysis. These environmental findings are the appropriate findings with respect to the proposed acquisition of the Subject Property Interests.

ATTACHMENT 2
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of Rancho Cucamonga as follows:
SECTION 1. The Rancho Cucamonga City Council adopts Resolution No. 2022- 011, A Resolution of the City Council of the City of Rancho Cucamonga, California, Declaring Certain Real Property Interests Necessary for Public Purposes and Authorizing the Acquisition Thereof in Connection with the Etiwanda Grade Separation Project ( A temporary construction easement on a portion of APN 0229- 162- 15).
SECTION 2. The City seeks to acquire by eminent domain the real property interest described below in Section 3 of this Resolution for public use, namely grade separation and related purposes, and all uses necessary or convenient thereto in connection with the Etiwanda Grade Separation Project pursuant to the authority conferred on the City of Rancho Cucamonga to acquire real property by eminent domain by Section 19 of Article 1 of the California Constitution, Government Code Sections 37350, 37350. 5, 37351, 40401, and 40404, California Code of Civil Procedure Section 1230. 010 et seq. ( Eminent Domain Law), including but not limited to Sections 1240. 010, 1240. 020, 1240. 110, 1240. 120, 1240. 150, 1240. 510, 1240. 610, 1240. 650, and by other provisions of law.
SECTION 3. The City seeks to acquire an approximate 5,011 square foot temporary construction easement with a term of 18 months(" Subject Property Interest") over a portion of the real property located at 8821 Etiwanda Avenue, Rancho Cucamonga, and identified as San Bernardino County Tax Assessor' s Parcel Number 0229- 162- 15 (" Jones, Garness, & Clemons Parcel") in connection with the Project. The Subject Property Interest is described more particularly in Exhibit" A" and depicted on Exhibit" B", which are attached hereto and incorporated herein by this reference.
SECTION 4. The environmental effects of the acquisition of the Subject Property Interest were studied as an integral part of the environmental review for the Project. In connection with the proposed Resolution of Necessity, on January 19, 2022, City Staff reviewed the environmental documentation prepared in connection with the Project. Pursuant to the criteria of Section 15162 of the CEQA Guidelines and Section 21166 of the Public Resources Code, City staff concluded that no substantial changes have occurred in the Project, no substantial changes have occurred in the circumstances under which the Project is undertaken, and that the City has obtained no new information of substantial importance that would require further environmental analysis.
These environmental findings are the appropriate findings with respect to the proposed acquisition of the Subject Property Interest.
SECTION 5. The Project, as planned and designed, is in the public interest and necessity and is needed to improve vehicle and rail safety, traffic mobility, and surface transportation, as more fully explained below:
A. The Project requires the acquisition of additional right of way for grade separation. The Project involves the widening and construction of Etiwanda Avenue as a four- lane grade separated roadway over the SCRRA/ BNSF San Gabriel subdivision, currently a two- lane at- grade crossing. The Project will construct an overhead crossing, utilizing walls and embankments to support the raised approaching roadway. It will span the railroad right- of- way and provide access to adjacent properties. The Project will widen Etiwanda Avenue to four traffic lanes including a painted median/ left turn lane with bike lanes and sidewalks on each side and a northbound right turn lane onto Whittram Avenue. When completed in 2024, the Project will reduce vehicle and truck delays, as well as queuing. It will improve mobility, safety, and level of Resolution No. 2022- 011 - Page 2 of 10
service at the crossing, and it will provide for the safe transit of pedestrians, bicyclists, vehicles, trucks, and trains. Furthermore, the Project will provide for improved response times in the area for first responders such as police officers, firefighters, paramedics, and emergency medical technicians. All work is consistent with the City's General Plan of Circulation.
B. The Project will reduce vehicle and truck delays, improve safety and level of service at the crossing, and it will provide for the safe transit of pedestrians, bicyclists, vehicles, trucks, and trains. Additionally, the Project will provide for improved response times in the area for first responders such as police officers, firefighters, paramedics, and emergency medical technicians. Accordingly, the Project will benefit the residents and businesses of the City and the community as a whole.
C. The Project, as planned and designed, is consistent with the Circulation Element of the General Plan, which designated Etiwanda Avenue as a four- lane major arterial road. Anticipating the future growth of the SCRRA/ BNSF corridor, the City's General Plan identified this area to be grade separated. The City seeks to acquire the Subject Property Interest for public use, namely grade separation and related purposes, and all uses necessary or convenient thereto in connection with the Project. The City seeks to construct the Project to improve mobility, safety, and level of service at the crossing.
D. The Project was planned and located to minimize the impact on the adjacent properties. Because of its scope, the Project requires the acquisition of several permanent easements and temporary construction easements over portions of 10 larger parcels, as well as fee interests in two parcels owned by private property owners. The construction of the Project will require some business/ residential relocations. The City will coordinate the construction with the owner of the Subject Property Interest to minimize the impact of the Project on the parcel. Based on the timing of the Project, it is necessary that the City consider the acquisition by eminent domain of the required Subject Property Interest.
SECTION 6.
A. Pursuant to Government Code Section 7260 et seq., the City of Rancho Cucamonga obtained a fair market value appraisal of the Jones, Garness & Clemons Parcel, the approximate 5,011 square foot temporary construction easement the City seeks to acquire for a period of 18 months for public use, namely grade separation and related purposes, and all uses necessary or convenient thereto.
B. The City set just compensation in accordance with the appraised fair market value, and extended a written offer on October 26, 2021 to the trustees of the Jones Family Trust, the Garness Family Trust, and the Clemons Revocable Trust, the owners of record. The fair market value appraisal used a date of value of October 14, 2021.
C. The City's written offer included an informational pamphlet describing the eminent domain process and the record owner' s rights under the Eminent Domain Law. In accordance with Government Code Section 7267.2, the City's written offer contained a written statement of, and summary of the basis for, the amount it established as just compensation. The offer set forth the date of value utilized by the appraiser and explained the appraiser' s opinion of the highest and best use of the larger parcel. It explained the applicable zoning designation of the larger parcel. The City' s offer also summarized the principal transactions relied on by the appraiser to arrive at the appraiser' s opinion of value. In addition, the written offer explained the appraiser' s valuation analysis, including severance damages. It included the City's comparable Resolution No. 2022- 011 - Page 3 of 10
market data relied on by the appraiser. Further, the City offered, pursuant to Code of Civil Procedure Section 1263.025, to pay the record owners the reasonable costs, up to $5,000.00, for an independent appraisal of the approximate 5,011 square foot temporary construction easement area.
SECTION 7. The City provided written notice to the owners of record, pursuant to Code of Civil Procedure section 1245.235 of the City Council's intent to consider the adoption of a Resolution of Necessity for the acquisition of the Subject Property Interest by eminent domain.
SECTION 8. The public use for which the City seeks to acquire the Subject Property Interest, namely grade separation and related purposes, and all uses necessary or convenient thereto, will not unreasonably interfere with or impair the continuance of the public use to which any easement holders may have appropriated the area (Code of Civil Procedure Section 1240.510). Further, the Project may require the relocation of several utilities to the new right-of way area. The public use for which the City seeks to acquire the Subject Property Interest, namely grade separation and related purposes, and all uses necessary or convenient thereto, is a more necessary public use within the meaning of Code of Civil Procedure Section 1240.650 than the uses to which public utility easement holders have appropriated any utility easements located on or within the area of the Subject Property Interest that are affected by the Project. Accordingly, the City is authorized to acquire the Subject Property Interest pursuant to Code of Civil Procedure Sections 1240.510, 1240.610, and 1240.650.
SECTION 9. Based on the evidence presented at the hearing regarding the Project, including the Agenda Report and documents referenced therein and any oral and written testimony at the hearing, the City Council hereby finds and determines that:
A. The public interest and necessity require the Project; B. The Project is planned and located in the manner that will be most compatible with the greatest public good and the least private injury; C. The Subject Property Interest described more particularly in Exhibit "A" and depicted on Exhibit "B" hereto, is necessary for the Project; and D. The City has made the offer required by Government Code Section 7267.2 to the record owner of the Subject Property Interest the City seeks to acquire.
SECTION 10. The findings and declarations contained in this Resolution are based upon the record before the City Council, including the Agenda Report and all documents referenced therein, all of which are incorporated herein by this reference, and any testimony and/or comments submitted to the City by the record owner and or the owner's representative(s). These documents include, but are not limited to the City of Rancho Cucamonga's General Plan, the offer letter sent to the owner pursuant to Government Code Section 7267.2, the notice to the record owner pursuant to Code of Civil Procedure Section 1245.235 of the City's intent to consider the adoption of the Resolution of Necessity, Grade Separation Plans for the Project, and the Notice of Exemption for the Project.
SECTION 11. The City Council of the City of Rancho Cucamonga hereby authorizes and directs the City Attorney's Office to take all steps necessary to commence and prosecute legal proceedings in a court of competent jurisdiction to acquire an approximate 5,011 square foot Resolution No. 2022-011 - Page 4 of 10
temporary construction easement for a period of 18 months for the Project. The Subject Property Interest is described more particularly on Exhibit" A" and depicted on Exhibit" B" hereto.
SECTION 12. The City Council of the City of Rancho Cucamonga hereby authorizes the City Manager to execute all necessary documents in connection with the eminent domain proceeding.
SECTION 13. The City Clerk shall certify to the adoption of this Resolution.

DATE: March 20, 2024
TO: Mayor and Members of the City Council
FROM: John R. Gillison, City Manager
INITIATED BY: Jason C. Welday, Director of Engineering Services/City Engineer Cesar Guevara, Associate Engineer
Justin J. Pope, Associate Engineer
Chi Wai Chan, Assistant Engineer
SUBJECT: Consideration of Resolution No. 2024-015 and Resolution No. 2024-016, Authorizing Submittal of a Claim to the San Bernardino County Transportation Authority (SBCTA) for Transportation Development Act (TDA) Article 3 Funds for the Cucamonga Creek Channel Maintenance Project and Day Creek Channel Bike Trail Improvement Project. (RESOLUTION NO. 2024-015 AND RESOLUTION NO. 2024-016)
(CITY)
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends the City Council approve Resolution No. 2024-015 and Resolution No. 2024- 016 authorizing submittal of a claim to the San Bernardino County Transportation Authority (SBCTA) for Transportation Development Act (TDA) Article 3 funds for the Cucamonga Creek Channel Maintenance Project (Cucamonga Creek Trail Project) and the Day Creek Channel Bike Trail Improvement Project (Day Creek Trail Project).
BACKGROUND:
Every two (2) years, SBCTA releases a Call for Projects for their TDA Article 3 Program which provides that two (2) percent of the Local Transportation Funds (LTF) be made available to counties and cities for the construction or improvement of facilities that provide for the exclusive use of pedestrians and bicyclists. Each cycle, the City of Rancho Cucamonga applies for various projects that align with the goals of the grant program and has been awarded funding for various trail and bus stop enhancement projects since at least 2013.
The City was awarded $403,000 for the Day Creek Trail Project in 2019 and $84,415 for the Cucamonga Creek Trail Project in 2021.
ANALYSIS:
In 2023, staff submitted two (2) applications to request additional funding consideration for the Cucamonga Creek Trail Project and the Day Creek Trail Project to accommodate increased costs related to additional scope and construction cost increases. Both projects were selected for additional funding, which together total $185,250 of additional TDA Article 3 Funds. When combined with the previously awarded $487,415, this will result in a total of $672,665 in TDA Article 3 Funds being distributed to the City for these two projects on a reimbursement basis.

The Cucamonga Creek Trail Project will allow the City to improve a 1.14 mile long stretch of the existing Class I bike trail on the west side of the channel from Foothill Boulevard to Red Hill Country Club Drive and on the east side from Red Hill Country Club Drive to Base Line Road.
The Cucamonga Creek Trail Project will extend the life of the existing Cucamonga Creek Trail that has direct connection to the Pacific Electric (P.E.) Trail at Red Hill Country Club Drive.
The Day Creek Trail Project will add approximately 1.4 miles of recreational multi-use trail on the west side of the Day Creek Channel beginning at Base Line Road, where the existing Day Creek Channel Trail currently terminates, and extending south to Jack Benny Drive. To improve connectivity, the Day Creek Trail Project will include a signalized crossing at Church Street, a lateral connection from the trail to the Rancho Cucamonga Sports Center, and will expand the area that has a direct connection to the P.E. Trail.
SBCTA Policy requires that the attached resolutions and claim forms be approved and submitted shortly after award of a TDA Article 3 grant. No reimbursements under the grant are being sought at this time, however staff will prepare and submit invoices to SBCTA as work progresses on the projects.
FISCAL IMPACT:
At this time there is no fiscal impact. It should be noted that there is a 35% match associated with each grant application which will be accounted for at the time of construction contract award for each project.
COUNCIL MISSION / VISION / VALUE(S) ADDRESSED:
These projects meet City Council’s core values by promoting and enhancing a safe and healthy community for all, and by providing for continuous improvement through the construction of high- quality public improvements.
