INITIATED BY: Peter Castro, Deputy City Manager-Administrative Services Jevin Kaye, Finance Director
Rick Flinchum, Finance Manager
SUBJECT: Consideration of Approval of Amended Appropriations for the Fiscal Year 2024/25. (CITY/FIRE)
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends the City Council and Board of Directors of the Rancho Cucamonga Fire Protection District approve the amended appropriations for the Fiscal Year 2024/25 as submitted.
BACKGROUND:
During the annual budget development process, staff estimates appropriations 14-16 months in advance of actual spending needs. Traditionally, an amended budget is presented in May to reflect year-to-date actuals and revised projection for the remainder of the fiscal year.
However, due to the timing of the budget process and the ongoing implementation and refinement of the City’s Workday ERP system, the Finance Department is recommending a revised schedule for end-of-year budget revisions.
This staff report includes select appropriation adjustments necessary to ensure adequate year- end funding for the items described below. A comprehensive set of amended appropriations and other revisions to the Fiscal Year 2024/25 budget will be presented to the City Council on July 16, 2025, following the completion of year-end closeout activities.
ANALYSIS:
To ensure that sufficient funding is available for the following items, staff is requesting the City Council and Board of Directors approve the revisions to the Fiscal Year 2024/25 budget in the following table:

FISCAL IMPACT:
It is recommended that the City Council and Fire Board approve the appropriations noted in the analysis section. In total, the impact across all funds requiring revisions at this time is $1,314,690.
In the General Fund, the additional appropriations for the Human Resources and Public Works department are offset by a one-time use of budgeted savings from the Police Department’s contract services budget. Thus, no additional General Fund resources are requested at this time.
The additional funding of $910,000 in the Capital Reserve project for the Electric Vehicle Charging Stations project was previously budgeted in the Major Projects Program for Fiscal Year 2025/26.
However, due to an earlier start time for encumbering the project, the funding needs are reflected within this staff report for use in Fiscal Year 2024/25.
In the Fire District, additional overtime expenses of $300,000 are anticipated over the previous projection for the Fiscal Year due to additional overtime incurred due to staff vacancies.
Furthermore, additional equipment expenses of $104,690 were incurred in the Fire Capital Fund for Battalion Chief vehicle equipment and engine equipment that was included in the prior year’s budget but not encumbered prior to year-end.
COUNCIL MISSION / VISION / GOAL(S) ADDRESSED:
The adoption of the Fiscal Year 2024/25 amended appropriations supports the City Council’s core value of providing and nurturing a high quality of life for all by demonstrating the active, prudent fiscal management of the City’s financial resources in order to support the various services the City provides to all Rancho Cucamonga stakeholders.

INITIATED BY: Elisa Cox, Assistant City Manager
Michael Parmer, Engagement and Special Programs Director SUBJECT: Consideration to Appropriate $1,000,000 Community Project Funding from Fiscal Year 2023 Congressional Directed Funding Appropriation for the Cucamonga Canyon Trailhead Project. (CITY)
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends the City Council appropriate $1,000,000 into the Engagement and Special Programs Revenue Account F275/CC109/RC5100-4501 and allocate the corresponding expenditure in Expenditure Account F275/CC109/SC7004 for costs associated with the Cucamonga Canyon Trailhead Project.
BACKGROUND:
Each year, the City of Rancho Cucamonga identifies high-priority projects to advocate for funding at both the State and Federal levels. As part of this effort, the City submits Community Project Funding Requests to specific legislators whose districts align with the location or scope of the proposed projects. These targeted requests allow the City to pursue critical investments that support long-term community goals.
In 2022, the City submitted a $1M Community Project Funding request to Congressmember Pete Aguilar to support the construction of a trailhead for Cucamonga Canyon. Specifically, the City will construct a new dedicated trailhead at Morgan Ranch and conduct trail improvements from the trailhead to Cucamonga Truck Trail and then from Party Point to the canyon floor leading into Cucamonga Canyon. The project will include various improvements, including the installation of shade structures, a bulletin board, tool shed, an information kiosk, benches, bicycle parking, and perimeter fencing. Currently, there is no safe, legal way to access Cucamonga Canyon. The project aligns with the recently adopted Cucamonga Canyon Management Plan, a multi-agency plan which provides strategic direction and guidance for the management of the area, and, once constructed will provide safe, legal access for the public and first responders.
In 2023, the City was ultimately awarded $1M in federal Community Project Funding for the construction of the trailhead.
ANALYSIS:
A portion of the $1M earmark will be used to reimburse the Rancho Cucamonga Fire District for the development of an environmental review (a prerequisite by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) – the agency responsible for managing the federal earmark – for

accessing the funding), as well as the design and construction of the trailhead. The environmental review for the future Morgan Ranch Trailhead location, including the Cucamonga Canyon area at Party Point to the canyon falls, was completed in April 2025 and accepted by HUD in May 2025.
Following Council approval, staff will solicit a request for proposals (RFP) for a consultant to develop a trailhead design and then construct the trailhead. This project is expected to be completed in Spring 2026.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The total estimated cost to construct the trailhead at Morgan Ranch is approximately $2M. The Park Development Fund (F120) will be used to cover any additional construction costs beyond the Community Project Funding.
COUNCIL MISSION / VISION / VALUE(S) ADDRESSED:
The construction of a dedicated trailhead at Morgan Ranch for safe, legal access to Cucamonga Canyon will help promote a healthy community for all, preserve a family-oriented atmosphere, and provide a high quality of life for all in Rancho Cucamonga.

INITIATED BY: Jason C. Welday, Director of Engineering Services/City Engineer Jasmine Lopez, Assistant Engineer
SUBJECT: Consideration of the 2024 Annual Review of the Development Agreement by and Between SC Rancho Development Corp., a California Corporation and Empire Lakes Holding Company, LLC, a Delaware Limited Liability Company and the City of Rancho Cucamonga, Case No. DRC2015- 00118. (CITY)
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends that the City Council receive the 2024 Annual Review of the subject Development Agreement (Agreement) submitted by SC Rancho Development Corp. and Empire Lakes Holding Company, LLC.
BACKGROUND:
On September 5, 2018, the City Council adopted Ordinance No. 934, approving a Development Agreement (Case No. DRC2015-00118) setting forth additional terms for the development of the Empire Lakes Golf Course, now referred to as The Resort (Project). Per Section 14 of the Agreement: Annual Review; during the term of the Agreement, City shall annually review the extent of the good faith compliance by Property Owner with the terms of this Agreement. Property owner is required to file an annual report with the City indicating information regarding compliance no later than January 7 for the previous calendar year.
ANALYSIS:
The property owners have submitted an Annual Review Letter dated January 6, 2025. This letter covers the period from January 1, 2024, to December 31, 2024 (Attachment 2). Further, as outlined in the Agreement, staff has compiled the building permits issued for the Project along with Development Impact Fees that offset the cost of the Joint Use Public Facility under the Agreement. This analysis is presented below in the Fiscal Impact section.
ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS:
Pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), the City certified an Environmental Impact Report (EIR) SCH No. 20150410083 on May 18, 2016, which analyzed the potential environmental impacts of the Project and related approvals.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Per the Agreement, Offset Development Impact Fees (DIFs), includes the amount of Police DIFs, Library DIFs, and Community and Recreation Center DIFs collected within the service area.
Under the Agreement, Offset DIFs are credited toward the construction of a Joint Use Public
2 8
6 2
Facility (JUPF) conditioned to be funded by the master developer. At the time of the Agreement, the developer and City agreed to an amount of $11,000,000 to be funded by the developer toward the JUPF in addition to the dedication of the land for the facility. This agreed-upon amount is increased annually at the end of each reporting year based upon the Engineering News Record (ENR) Construction Index. The increase to the ENR for reporting year 2024 is 2.5%.
This Project includes 300 units that were permitted though calendar year 2024, 331 units in 2023, 236 units in 2022, 200 units in 2021, 208 units in 2020, and 103 units in 2019. In total, 1,378 units have been permitted.
The Offset DIFS collected through the end of 2024 within the development (Zone 1) and the service area (Zone 2) as described in the Agreement are shown in the following table:

SUBJECT: Consideration to Receive and File a Report in Conformance with California Government Code Section 65858(D) on Measures Taken to Alleviate the Need for Interim Urgency Ordinances Nos. 1030 and 1032, a Moratorium on the Granting of Any Zoning Approval, Home Occupation Permit, or Other Permit, License, or Land Use Entitlement for Using Real Properties Zoned and/or Developed for Residential Use in the City of Rancho Cucamonga for Home Experience Sharing. (CITY)
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends the City Council, in conformance with California Government Code Section 65858, receive and file this written report on the measures taken by staff since September 17, 2024, to alleviate the conditions which led to the adoption of Interim Urgency Ordinances nos. 1030 and 1032, establishing a Moratorium on the granting of any Zoning Approval, Home Occupation Permit, or other Permit, License, or Land Use Entitlement for using real properties zoned and/or developed for residential use in the City of Rancho Cucamonga for Home Experience Sharing.
BACKGROUND:
Pursuant to California Government Code Section 65898, a city may enact an interim Zoning Ordinance on an urgency basis to protect the public health, safety, and welfare by prohibiting any use(s) that may conflict with a contemplated change to a city’s General Plan, Specific Plan, zoning requirements, or any such change that a city is intending to study within a reasonable period.
At the regular meeting on September 17, 2024, the City Council adopted Interim Urgency Ordinance No. 1030, establishing a moratorium on the granting of any zoning approval, home occupation permit, or other permit, license, or land use entitlement for using real properties zoned and/or developed for residential use in the City of Rancho Cucamonga for Home Experience Sharing – which was defined to mean the rental or lease of a recreational amenity or recreational amenities on residential properties (including, but not limited to, swimming pools, barbeques, grills, sports courts, and other portions of residentially zoned and/or developed properties that are designed or used for recreational activities), separate from or otherwise not in conjunction with the rental of a residential dwelling unit. The moratorium was enacted in order to provide Staff sufficient time to evaluate the adverse impacts of such use of residential properties and determine
2 8
8 4
whether appropriate regulations could be enacted in order to eliminate or lessen such impacts to a satisfactory level.
On October 2, 2024, pursuant to California Government Code Section 65858(d), the City Council adopted and issued a report describing the measures taken to alleviate the condition which led to the adoption of Interim Urgency Ordinance No. 1030.
On October 15, 2024, pursuant to California Government Code Section 65958(a), at a duly noticed public hearing, the City Council adopted Interim Urgency Ordinance No. 1032, which extended the moratorium (adopted by Interim Urgency Ordinance 1030) for an additional ten (10) months and fifteen (15) days through September 16, 2025.
ANALYSIS:
Section 65858(d) of the California Government Code provides that ten (10) days prior to the expiration of an interim urgency ordinance or any extension thereof, the legislative body shall issue a written report describing the measures taken to alleviate the conditions that led to the adoption of the urgency interim ordinance. The following specific activities have been undertaken:
Studied issues associated with Home Experience Sharing (including, but not limited to, sanitation, noise, and parking) to determine the impacts that such issues may have upon adjacent residential properties and the public as a whole. Met with other City Departments/Divisions and other governmental agencies that may desire or need to inspect and/or regulate properties that conduct Home Sharing Experiences in order to safeguard the health, safety, and welfare of the Home Sharing Experience hosts and guests, as well as that of the general public. Studied adopted State regulations pertaining to “public swimming pools” and the suitability of applying said standards to those instances of Home Experience Sharing that include swimming pools.
Evaluated current City noise standards and regulations, and their suitability and applicability to Home Experience Sharing.
Evaluated adopted development standards from other California cities, as well as from other cities located outside of California that have faced surges in Home Experience Sharing, to determine “best practice” standards that might be applicable to the City of Rancho Cucamonga.
Received and responded to complaints received by residents suffering from adverse impacts of Home Experience Sharing on neighboring parcels of property. Compared the benefits that allowing Home Experience Sharing would provide to the community to the adverse impacts that would result from allowing Home Experience Sharing – even if regulated.
2 8
8 4
The above reflect the actions that have been taken since the adoption of Interim Urgency Ordinances Nos. 1030 and 1032 in an effort to alleviate the conditions that led to the adoption of Interim Urgency Ordinance Nos. 1030 and 1032.
After a thorough evaluation, Staff will be proposing the enactment of an Ordinance that will modify the City’s Development Code to explicitly prohibit Home Experience Sharing within the City.
Pursuant to California Government Code Sections 65853 through 65857, a zoning ordinance (including an amendment to the City’s Development Code) that imposes, removes, or modifies a regulation of the use of buildings, structures, or lands cannot be submitted to the City Council for consideration until after it has been considered by the Planning Commission at a public hearing and the Planning Commission has issued and submitted a recommendation to the City Council.
Due to the pending expiration of the moratorium (currently scheduled for September 17, 2025), and in order to provide sufficient time for Staff to prepare a permanent ordinance prohibiting Home Experience Sharing for consideration by both the Planning Commission and the City Council, Staff will be seeking an extension of the moratorium extended by Interim Urgency Ordinance 1032 (and initially imposed by Interim Urgency Ordinance 1030) - as authorized by California Government Code Section 65858(a).
An opportunity for full public comment on the extension of Interim Urgency Ordinance 1032 will be provided at the City Council’s Public Hearing to be held on July 16, 2025.
FISCAL IMPACT:
None.
COUNCIL MISSION / VISION / VALUE(S) ADDRESSED:
This action supports several City Council Core Values including:
Providing and nurturing an excellent quality of life for all. Promoting and enhancing a safe and healthy community for all. Intentionally embracing and anticipating our future.
Actively seeking and respectfully considering all public input.

ENTITLEMENT FOR USING REAL PROPERTIES ZONED AND/ OR
DEVELOPED FOR RESIDENTIAL USE IN THE CITY OF RANCHO
CUCAMONGA FOR HOME EXPERIENCE SHARING AND DECLARING THE
URGENCY THEREOF
THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF RANCHO CUCAMONGA DOES HEREBY ORDAIN AS FOLLOWS:
SECTION 1. Legislative Findings.
A. The City of Rancho Cucamonga is responsible for enacting and implementing regulations governing land use and businessactivities within its boundaries.
B. Within the past few years, the rental of recreational amenities ( e. g., swimming pools, playgrounds, barbeques and grills, pickleball courts, tennis courts, and other sports areas, and other exterior portions of real properties) separate and apart from the rental of the residential dwellings — a use that is commonly known as " Home Experience Sharing", has surged in popularity. While therentalof recreational amenitiesas part ofa HomeExperienceSharingcan provide supplemental income to families within our community and provide recreational opportunities for persons without these amenities, these amenities also cause several adverse impacts upon residential neighborhoods — including, but not limited to, increased noise, disorderly conduct, and lack of adequate off-street parking for residents, that current City laws do not adequately address. Such impacts would, in turn, result in potential conflicts between Home Sharing Experience guests and neighbors — and an increased expenditure of City resources in respondingto these complaints. Additionally, HomeExperienceSharingraises healthandsafety concernsas there are currently no regulationsabout the minimumstandardsfor maintenanceof the recreational amenities, sanitation facilities (especially since the recreational facilities are not rented in conjunction with a residential building), insurance coverage to cover accidents or injuries suffered by these social guests.
C. On September 17, 2024, in accordance with California Government Code Section 65858, the City Council ofthe City of RanchoCucamongaadopted InterimUrgencyOrdinance No. 1030, whichenactedan initial45 -day moratoriumon HorneExperienceSharingin the City.
D. Since the adoption of the moratorium, City Staff has undertaken efforts to study of the benefits and detriments of Home Experience Sharing to determine whether such a use would be appropriate within the residential areas of the City — and, if so, what types of regulations and standards would be appropriate to impose upon the operation of Home Experience Sharing to mitigate any adverse impacts upon our residential communities.
E. The moratorium enacted pursuant to Interim Urgency Ordinance No. 1030 is scheduled to expire on November 1, 2024.
Ordinance No. 1032 - Page 1 of 5 ATTACHMENT 1
F. Although the City intends on completing its evaluation of Home Experience Sharing within a reasonable time, staff needs additional time to complete the study and to draft and enact standards and regulations regarding Home Experience Sharing that specifically address this land use and activity that protects the health, safety, and welfare of Home Experience Sharing hosts and guests, and that of the general public.
G. Absent an extension of the moratorium and the passage of this Ordinance, the City Council of the City of Rancho Cucamonga finds and determines that the extension of the current moratorium for 10 months and 15 days to provide the City reasonable time to continue evaluating Home Experience Sharing and its adverse impacts and to enact adequate safeguards to protect the health, safety, and welfare is immediately necessary and appropriate.
H. Pursuant to California Government Code Section 65858( d), the City Council of the City of Rancho Cucamonga issued a written report describing the measures that were taken by the City to alleviate the conditions that led to the adoption of Interim Urgency Ordinance No. 1030 and the corresponding moratorium, which was at least ten ( 10) days before the expiration of Interim Urgency Ordinance No. 1030 and the City Council' s consideration of this extension.
I. Pursuant to California Government Code Sections 65858 and 65090, the City Council conducted a duly noticed public hearing on October 15, 2024, at which time, the City Council considered this Interim Ordinance to extend the existing 45 -day moratorium on Home Experience Sharing.
SECTION 2. Urgency Findings.
A. The City Council finds and determines that Home Experience Sharing within the City without adequate safeguards upon expiration of the current moratorium presents an immediate threat to the public health, safety, and welfare.
B. As described in Section 1, the Staff Report accompanying this Urgency Ordinance, and other evidence in the record, Home Sharing Experiences could threaten the health, safety, and welfare of the community through adverse impacts that include, but are not limited to, increased noise, disturbances of the peace and disorderly conduct, lack of required parking, and adequate safeguards in place that address minimum standards for maintenance of the recreational amenities, sanitation facilities ( especially since the recreational facilities are not rented in conjunction with a residential building), and insurance coverage to cover accidents or injuries suffered by these social guests.
C. To preserve the public health, safety, and welfare, the City Council finds that it is necessary to extend the moratorium on Home Experience Sharing and that this Interim Urgency Ordinance take effect immediately pursuant to Government Code Sections 65858, 36934, and 36937 to prevent such harm.
SECTION 3. Moratorium Established.
A. Definitions. For purposes of this Interim Urgency Ordinance, the following terms shall be defined as set forth herein:
Home Sharing Experience" shall mean the rental or lease of a recreational amenity or recreational amenities located on real property zoned and/ or developed for Ordinance No. 1032 - Page 2 of 5
residential use within the City of Rancho Cucamonga, separate from or otherwise not in conjunction with the rental of a residential dwelling unit.
Recreational amenity" or " recreational amenities" shall include any swimming pool, barbeque, grill, pickleball court, basketball court, tennis court, playground, yard area, or other portion of a residentially zoned and/or developed property that is designed or used for recreational activities.
B. Moratorium. Based on the facts and findings outlined in Sections 1 and 2 of this Interim Urgency Ordinance, and notwithstanding any other ordinance or provision of the Rancho Cucamonga Municipal Code, the City Council hereby establishes a moratorium providing for the following:
1. Home Experience Sharing, as defined in Section 3.A, above, is unlawful and a public nuisance in all zones within the City during the term of the moratorium established herein or any extension thereof.
2. No Home Experience Sharing activities shall be established or continued, if previously established, in any zone within the City.
3. No application for zoning approval, home occupation permit, or other permit, license, or land use entitlement shall be approved during the term of the moratorium established herein or any extension thereof.
SECTION 4. Enforcement.
The provision of this Interim Urgency Ordinance shall be enforceable pursuant to the general enforcement provisions in Title 1 of the Rancho Cucamonga Municipal Code.
SECTION 5. Ordinance is Supplemental.
This Interim Ordinance is additional to and supplemental to, and shall not affect, except as specifically provided herein, any provision of the Rancho Cucamonga Municipal Code, which shall be operative and remain in full force and effect without limitation.
SECTION 6. CEQA Findings.
The City Council hereby finds that it can be seen with certainty, that there is no possibility that the adoption of this Interim Urgency Ordinance may have a significant effect on the environment, because the Interim Urgency Ordinance will impose and/or extend a temporary moratorium on the granting of any zoning approval, home occupation permit, or other permit, license, or land use entitlement for Home Experience Sharing in the City in order to protect the public health, safety, and general welfare, and will thereby serve to avoid potentially significant environmental impacts during the term of the moratorium and any extensions thereof. It is therefore not subject to the California Environmental Quality Act review pursuant to Title 14, Chapter 3, Section 15061( b)( 3) of the California Code of Regulations.
Ordinance No. 1032 - Page 3 of 5
SECTION 7. Severability.
If any section, subsection, subdivision, paragraph, sentence, clause, or phrase of this Interim Urgency Ordinance or its application to any person or circumstances, if for any reason held to be invalid or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, such invalidity or unenforceability shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the remaining sections, subsections, subdivisions, paragraphs, sentences, clauses, or phrases of this Interim Urgency Ordinance, or its application to any other person or circumstance. The City Council hereby declares that it would have adopted each section, subsection, subdivision, paragraph, sentence, clause, or phrase hereof, irrespective of the fact that any one or more sections, subsections, subdivisions, paragraphs, sentences, clauses, or phrases hereof be declared invalid or unenforceable.
SECTION 8. Penalty.
Violation of any provision of this Interim Ordinance shall constitute a misdemeanor and shall be punishable by a fine not to exceed one thousand dollars ($ 1,000) or by imprisonment for a period not to exceed six ( 6) months, or by both such fine and imprisonment. Each and every day such a violation exists shall constitute a separate and distinct violation of this Interim Ordinance.
SECTION 9. Civil Remedies.

SECTION 8. Effective Date; Approval and Extension of Ordinance.
This Interim Urgency Ordinance, being adopted as an urgency measure for the immediate protection of the public health, safety, and welfare, containing a declaration of the facts constituting the urgency, and passed by a minimum four-fifths ( 4/5) vote of the City Council, shall take effect concurrent with the expiration of Interim Urgency Ordinance No. 1030 at midnight on November 1, 2024, and shall continue in effect for a period of no longer than ten ( 10) months and fifteen ( 15) days.
After notice pursuant to Government Code Section 65090 and a public hearing, the City Council may extend the effectiveness of this Interim Urgency Ordinance as provided in Government Code Section 65858.

AN INTERIM URGENCY ZONING ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF
THE CITY OF RANCHO CUCAMONGA, CALIFORNIA, ENACTED PURSUANT TO GOVERNMENT CODE SECTION 65858 ESTABLISHING A MORATORIUM
ON THE GRANTING OF ANY ZONING APPROVAL, HOME OCCUPATION
PERMIT, OR OTHER PERMIT, LICENSE, OR LAND USE ENTITLEMENT FOR
USING REAL PROPERTIES ZONED AND/ OR DEVELOPED FOR
RESIDENTIAL USE IN THE CITY OF RANCHO CUCAMONGA FOR HOME
EXPERIENCE SHARING
THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF RANCHO CUCAMONGA DOES HEREBY ORDAIN AS FOLLOWS:
SECTION 1. Legislative Findings.
A. The Rancho Cucamonga Development Code ( as set forth in Title 17 of the Rancho Cucamonga Municipal Code) establishes different " base zones" applicable to real properties within the City of Rancho Cucamonga in an effort to classify, regulate, designate, and distribute the uses of lands and buildings with the City. Pursuant to Section 17. 26. 020 of the Rancho Cucamonga Municipal Code, these base zones include ( i) Residential Zones; ( ii) Form - Based Zones; ( iii) Industrial Zones; ( iv) Open Space Zones; and ( v) Special Purpose Zones.
B. Section 17. 30. 030 and Table 17. 30. 030- 1 of the Rancho Cucamonga Municipal Code list uses within each base zone that are either permitted, permitted with a Minor Use Permit, conditionally permitted, or not permitted. Moreover, Section 17. 30. 020. 0 of the Rancho Cucamonga Municipal Code explicitly provides that " Land uses that are not listed in the zone tables are not allowed, except as otherwise provided in this title." C. Approved principal uses of residentially zoned properties are designed to be residential uses" as described in Section 17. 32. 020 of the Rancho Cucamonga Municipal Code and the use of residentially zoned properties for non-residential uses is limited in an effort to ensure that such uses and/ or activities do not impact the overall quality and character of the residential neighborhood.
D. Over the past several years, the rental of residential properties for periods of thirty 30) days or less (" Short - Term Rentals") has surged in popularity. While providing a financial advantage to property owners and simultaneously providing an affordable way to visit the City, Short - Term Rentals also create or contribute to a number of adverse impacts upon a residential neighborhood — including, but not limited to, disturbances of the peace resulting from parties and other late- night activities, illegally parked vehicles, and a lack of adequate parking. After careful consideration of the benefits and adverse impacts of Short -Term Rentals, the City Council of the City of Rancho Cucamonga adopted Ordinance 969, adding Chapter 8.34 and amending Title 17 of the Rancho Cucamonga Municipal Code to establish regulations applicable to Short - Term Rentals.
E. Another use that has been surging in popularity is the rental of recreational amenities ( e. g., swimming pools; playgrounds; barbeques and grills; pickleball courts, tennis courts, and other sports areas; and other exterior portions of real properties) separate and apart from the rental of the residential dwelling — a use that is commonly known as "Home Experience Sharing". Recreational amenities as part of a Home Experience Sharing are generally rented by Ordinance No. 1030 - Page 1 of 6
ATTACHMENT 2
the hour, however, are generally rented for multiple hours at a time — and some property owners provide " monthly passes" allowing for extended hours throughout the month. Moreover, Home Experience Sharing is often used for hosting parties and other social events resulting in large gatherings of non- residents within residential properties. Similar to Short - Term Rentals, the rapid growth of Home Experience Sharing also creates or contributes to a number of adverse impacts upon residential neighborhoods — including, but not limited to, increased noise, disorderly conduct, and lack of adequate off-street parking for residents, which, in turn, would result in potential conflicts between Home Sharing Experience guests and neighbors — and an increased expenditure of City resources in responding to complaints. Additionally, Home Experience Sharing raises health and safety concerns as there are currently no regulations pertaining to minimum standards for maintenance of the recreational amenities, sanitation facilities ( especially since the recreational facilities are not rented in conjunction with a residential building), insurance coverage to cover accidents or injuries suffered by these social guests.
F. Home Experience Sharing is not defined within the Rancho Cucamonga Municipal Code, nor is it a designated use listed in Section 17. 30. 030 and Table 17. 30. 030- 1 of the Rancho Cucamonga Municipal Code.
G. Although the City allows for some temporary activities and land uses to be conducted on private residential properties, such activities and uses must be temporary. Section
17. 140. 020 of the Rancho Cucamonga Municipal Code defines a temporary use to be " a use established for a fixed period of time with the intent to discontinue such use upon the expiration of the time period."
H. The City has established development standards only for the temporary uses as listed in Chapter 17. 104 of the Rancho Cucamonga Municipal Code to ensure the health, safety, and general welfare of the community — but these would not be adequate for the long-term use of residential properties for Home Experience Sharing.
Home Experience Sharing would also not be an allowed " Home Occupation" for which a Home Occupation Permit could be issued within the City of Rancho Cucamonga, because Home Occupations must be conducted within a residential dwelling or an accessory building — and be subordinate and/ or accessory to the residential use of the property. By their very nature, Home Experience Sharing is conducted, primarily, on exterior portions of the property.
J. The City's Community Improvement Division has confirmed through listings on Home Experience Sharing sites (e.g., Swimply. com) that recreational amenities are, in fact, being rented in the City of Rancho Cucamonga as part of Home Experience Sharing.
K. Based upon the foregoing adverse impacts and concerns raised by Home Experience Sharing, the lack of adequate safeguards to protect the health, safety, and welfare of the guests participating in the Home Experience Sharing and neighboring residential neighborhood, and the current use of residential properties within the City of Rancho Cucamonga for Home Experience Sharing, the City Council therefore finds there is a current and immediate threat to the public health, safety, and welfare, and that a moratorium is necessary.
L. The City Council finds that the time provided by the moratorium will allow for a comprehensive analysis on how best to regulate Home Experience Sharing to minimize or eliminate the adverse impacts upon the health, safety, and welfare of not only the property owner who is providing the Home Experience Sharing, but also the guests and the surrounding neighborhood. The City Council further finds that the moratorium will allow time to evaluate the Ordinance No. 1030 - Page 2 of 6
General Plan, the Development Code, and the Zoning map — and determine appropriate zones in which Home Experience Sharing could be conducted and create adequate safeguards under which Home Experience Sharing could be conducted in a manner where adverse impacts are negated or minimized.
SECTION 2. Authority.
Pursuant to Government Code Section 65858, the City Council may adopt, as an urgency measure, an interim ordinance that prohibits any uses that may be in conflict with a contemplated zoning proposal that the City Council is considering, studying, or intending to study within a reasonable period of time.
SECTION 3. Urgency Findings.
The City Council finds and determines that there is an immediate threat to the public health, safety, and welfare, and that the approval of any zoning approval, home occupation permit, or other permit or land use entitlement for Home Sharing Experiences would constitute an immediate threat to the public health, safety, and welfare. As described in Section 1, the Staff Report accompanying this Urgency Ordinance, and other evidence in the record, Home Sharing Experiences could threaten the health, safety, and welfare of the community through adverse impacts that include, but are not limited to, increased noise, disturbances of the peace and disorderly conduct, and lack of required parking, without adequate safeguards in place to address minimum standards for maintenance of the recreational amenities, sanitation facilities ( especially since the recreational facilities are not rented in conjunction with a residential building), and insurance coverage to cover accidents or injuries suffered by these social guests. To preserve the public health, safety, and welfare, the City Council finds that it is necessary that this Interim Urgency Ordinance take effect immediately pursuant to Government Code Sections 65858, 36934, and 36937 to prevent such harm.
SECTION 4. Moratorium Established.
A. Definitions. For purposes of this Interim Urgency Ordinance, the following terms shall be defined as set forth herein:
Home Sharing Experience" shall mean the rental or lease of a recreational amenity, or recreational amenities located on real property zoned and/ or developed for residential use within the City of Rancho Cucamonga, separate from or otherwise not in conjunction with the rental of a residential dwelling unit.
Recreational amenity" or "recreational amenities" shall include any swimming pool, barbeque, grill, pickleball court, basketball court, tennis court, playground, yard area, or other portion of a residentially zoned and/or developed property that is designed or used for recreational activities.
Ordinance No. 1030 - Page 3 of 6
B. Moratorium. Based on the facts and findings set forth in Sections 1 through 3 of this Interim Urgency Ordinance, and notwithstanding any other ordinance or provision of the Rancho Cucamonga Municipal Code, the City Council hereby establishes a moratorium providing for the following:
1. Home Experience Sharing, as defined in Section 4.A, above, is unlawful and a public nuisance in all zones within the City during the term of the moratorium established herein or any extension thereof.
2. No Home Experience Sharing activities shall be established or continued, if previously established, in any zone within the City.
3. No application for zoning approval, home occupation permit, or other permit, license, or land use entitlement shall be approved during the term of the moratorium established herein or any extension thereof.
SECTION 5. Enforcement.
The provision of this Interim Urgency Ordinance shall be enforceable pursuant to the general enforcement provisions in Title 1 of the Rancho Cucamonga Municipal Code.
SECTION 6. CEQA Findings.
The City Councilherebyfinds that it can be seenwith certainty, that there is no possibility that the adoption of this Interim Urgency Ordinance may have a significant effect on the environment, because the Interim Urgency Ordinance will impose a temporary moratorium on the granting of any zoning approval, home occupation permit, or other permit, license, or land use entitlement for Home Experience Sharing in the City in order to protect the public health, safety, and general welfare, and will thereby serve to avoid potentially significant environmental impacts during the term of the moratorium and any extensions thereof. It is therefore not subject to the California Environmental Quality Act review pursuant to Title 14, Chapter 3, Section 15061( b)( 3) of the California Code of Regulations.
SECTION 7. Severability.
If any section, subsection, subdivision, paragraph, sentence, clause, or phrase of this Interim Urgency Ordinanceor its applicationto any person or circumstances, if for any reason held to be invalid or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, such invalidity or unenforceability shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the remaining sections, subsections, subdivisions, paragraphs, sentences, clauses, or phrases of this Interim Urgency Ordinance, or its application to any other person or circumstance. The City Council hereby declares that it would have adopted each section, subsection, subdivision, paragraph, sentence, clause, or phrase hereof, irrespective of the fact that nay one or more sections, subsections, subdivisions, paragraphs, sentences, clauses, or phrases hereof be declared invalid or unenforceable.
Ordinance No. 1030 - Page 4 of 6
SECTION 8. Effective Date; Approval and Extension of Ordinance.
This Interim Urgency Ordinance, being adopted as an urgency measure for the immediate protection of the public health, safety, and welfare, containing a declaration of the facts constituting the urgency, and passed by a minimum four-fifths (4/5) vote of the City Council, shall take effect immediately upon its adoption and shall continue in effect for a period of not longer than forty-five (45) days. After notice pursuant to Government Code Section 65090 and a public hearing, the City Council may extend the effectiveness of this Interim Urgency Ordinance as provided in Government Code Section 65858.
SECTION 9. Publication.
The City Clerk shall certify to the passage and adoption of this Interim Urgency Ordinance and shall cause its publication in accordance with applicable law.

SUBJECT: Consideration of the Purchase of Two KME K-180 Type 1 Fire Engines Utilizing a Sourcewell Cooperative Agreement Awarded to Rev Group, Inc. in the Amount of $2,173,560. (FIRE)
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends the Fire Board authorize the purchase of two (2) KME K-180 Type 1 Fire Engines utilizing Sourcewell Cooperative Agreement No. 113021, awarded to Rev Group, Inc., in the Amount of $2,173,560.
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. For both FY 2024-25 and 2025-26, the Fire District identified and budgeted for the replacement of one Type 1 Engine for each year.
Per 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.
The new Type 1 Engines will replace unit 87-06, a 2006 KME Predator, and unit 94-07, a 2007 KME Predator. Two of the oldest units in the Fire District’s fleet, unit 87-06 has approximately 164,365 miles and unit 94-07 has approximately 157,090 miles. The age and high mileage of these units affects reliability, service cost, and out of service time. Both units are equipped with the Detroit Fire Commander which controls the fire pump. This controller is no longer available or repairable and an alternative solution is not available. Therefore, if this controller does fail, the
2 8
5 0
unit would be out of service. Both units also have limited or no parts available, resulting in significant challenges in terms of parts availability as these units continue to age. The costs associated with sourcing and repairing aging parts is significant. In addition, recent oil samples taken from both engines show high levels of lead, an indication of bearing wear and the fuel dilution is high thus lowering the viscosity of the engine oil. The Fire Shop performs frequent oil changes in order to keep the units in service.
The Fire District’s current fleet is made up of eight frontline engine companies and six reserve apparatus. The 2006 KME Predator (87-06) and a 2007 KME Predator (94-07) will be surplused once the new Type 1 Engines are placed into service
ANALYSIS:
Fire District staff provided detailed specifications for two (2) Type 1 Fire Engines to the City’s Procurement Division. Formal RFP #24/25-020 was prepared and posted on February 11, 2025, to the City’s automated procurement system. Subsequently, two hundred thirty (230) vendors were notified, seventeen (18) prospective bidders downloaded or reviewed the RFP document, and two (2) viable proposals were received. The proposals were evaluated by two Fire Captains and the Fire Shop Supervisor, all members of the Fire District’s Apparatus Committee. Both proposals exceeded the Fire District’s budget and had extended build times. Proposal one was approximately $541,300 over budget with a 27 month build time. Proposal two was approximately $758,575 over budget with a 36 month build time. As a result, the Fire District cancelled RFP #24/25-020.
In an effort to expedite the purchasing process for the two Type 1 Engines, the Fire District identified an opportunity through a Cooperative Agreement from Sourcewell awarded to Rev Group, Inc. Sourcewell is a service cooperative created by the Minnesota legislature as a local unit of government. Sourcewell offers a cooperative purchasing model that streamlines the procurement process for public agencies cities by eliminating the requirement for individual bidding and negotiation, as well as leverages the purchasing power of multiple agencies to get discounts from suppliers, contractors, and retailers.
The Sourcewell contract with Rev Group, Inc. is for a KME K-180 Type-1 Engine, a production- line engine that can be manufactured in one year. The Fire District’s Apparatus Committee reviewed the KME K-180 specifications and determined that the unit will meet the overall needs of the Fire District. The major differences noted in the KME K-180 specifications versus the Fire District’s custom build specifications include a 10-foot step-up cab instead of flat roof; Whelen emergency lighting package instead of Federal Signal; Waterous pump instead of Hale; interior ladder storage instead of an exterior ladder rack; a 20-gallon foam tank instead of 40-gallon; and one booster reel instead of two. In order to ensure the KME K-180 engines are as consistent as possible with the rest of the Fire District fleet, several items will need to be purchased and installed once the units arrive. This includes a built-in toolbox, a map box, helmet storage, and other miscellaneous items to guarantee uniformity amongst our fleet.
The Fire District provided the Sourcewell contract to the City’s Procurement Division.
Procurement reviewed the bid documents and contract and is satisfied that the solicitation process and terms meet the Fire District and City's requirements. It has been determined that utilizing the contract is the most advantageous, expedient method of procurement at this time and is considered to be in the Fire District's best interest to approve the purchase of two (2) KME K- 180 Type-1 Engines utilizing Sourcewell Cooperative Agreement No. 113021, awarded to Rev Group, Inc., in the amount of $2,173,560. The engines will be purchased from Fire Apparatus Solutions, the local authorized distributer of the KME K-180.

FISCAL IMPACT:
The total cost for the KME K-180 Type 1 Engine is $1,086,780, tax included, per unit. The purchase of one Type 1 Engine was approved in the FY 2024-25 budget and the purchase of an additional Type 1 Engine has been included in the FY 2025-26 budget, contingent upon final approval by the Fire Board. For FY 2024-25, a total of $1,050,000 was in the Fire Protection Capital Fund under account F288 CC501 SC7007 (Capital Outlay – Vehicle). Sufficient funding is available in the Fire Capital Fund to cover the increased cost of the engine. For FY 2025-26, the full cost of the engine has been budgeted.

SUBJECT: Consideration of a Professional Service Agreement with AssetWorks, Incorporated, a Fleet Management Software, in the Amount of $138,360 and Authorize an Appropriation of Funds in the Amount of $23,820. (CITY/FIRE)
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends the Fire Board and City Council approve an agreement with AssetWorks, Inc. for the FleetFocusFA SaaS procurement, implementation, and annual asset license fees for the cloud-based fleet management software for $138,360. Staff further recommends that the City Council approve an appropriation for $23,820 from the City's General Fund.
BACKGROUND:
The City of Rancho Cucamonga (City) and the Rancho Cucamonga Fire Protection District (District) currently contract with Valsoft Corporation (formerly iMaint), a Montreal-based firm that acquires and manages software companies. Valsoft acquired iMaint, the City and District's current fleet software. Over time, the iMaint system has proven to be outdated, lacking in customer service, and not well-suited to the operational and tracking needs of the City and District's fleet program.
To address these limitations and modernize fleet operations, staff identified the need for a more user-friendly, feature-rich, and scalable solution. AssetWorks was selected through a cooperative purchasing arrangement under GSA Contract GS-35F-317GA, which streamlines procurement and provides pre-negotiated federal pricing. The solution includes cloud-hosted software, data migration and environment setup, professional services, and integration with fueling systems.
The City's Department of Technology has reviewed the proposed solution and is in complete agreement with the selection of AssetWorks as the preferred platform.
ANALYSIS:
AssetWorks provides a comprehensive, easy-to-use fleet management system designed to increase efficiency and transparency across the City and District's vehicle, apparatus, and equipment operations. Key features include:
2 8

Automated maintenance scheduling, real-time alerts, reminders, and paperless work orders that track workflows, assign responsibilities, manage parts requests, and log time, billing, recalls, and more.
Lifecycle asset tracking from acquisition to disposal, including preventative maintenance, warranty tracking, and replacement forecasting.
FuelFocusEV ChargePoint integration to manage electric vehicle charging stations and collect detailed, session-level energy data to support sustainability goals. Motor pool management for tracking shared fleet use, reservations, and utilization. Data analytics and reporting tools, including predictive reporting tools, to identify trends, forecast costs, and inform replacement planning.
The agreement includes:
Initial term of one (1) year with options to renew for three (3) additional two-year terms (maximum of 7 years)
Security and compliance: The City and District maintain SOC 2 and ISO 27001 standards, ensuring strict data confidentiality and ownership.
AssetWorks commits to a 99% uptime commitment, with service credits applied if this target is not met.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The total agreement amount of $138,360 covers implementation, setup, and the first year of the annual software.

SUBJECT: Consideration of an Amended and Restated Professional Services Agreement with Richards, Watson & Gershon, a Professional Corporation, for Legal Services. (CITY/FIRE)
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends the City Council of the City of Rancho Cucamonga and the Rancho Cucamonga Fire Protection District Board of Directors, approve the Amended and Restated Professional Services Agreement, dated July 1, 2025, with Richards, Watson & Gershon, a Professional Corporation, for ongoing legal services.
BACKGROUND:
The City of Rancho Cucamonga has contracted for legal services with previous City Attorney, James Markman and his affiliate legal firms, since the mid 1980’s. Each of the City’s entities: the City of Rancho Cucamonga, Rancho Cucamonga Fire Protection District, Rancho Cucamonga Successor Agency, and Rancho Cucamonga EIFD Public Financing Authority have individual agreements with Mr. Markman’s current firm, namely Richards, Watson, & Gershon. These agreements outline hourly rate structures, legal retainers, litigation rates and specialized legal services. Amendments were executed in 2006, 2017, and again in 2021 as it related to billing rates.
The current amendment addresses the following areas: 1) Appointment of City Attorney; 2) Scope of Work – Regular; 3) Scope of Work – Special; 4) Coordination and Organization; 5) Billing Rates.
With respect to the Regular Scope of Work and Special Services (Sections 2 and 3), the agreement remains largely consistent with the existing agreements. It continues to include support for City Council, the Planning Commission, special meetings, and legal counsel for all elected and appointed officials, as well as other matters related to City business.
ANALYSIS:
The updated agreements also reflect a few key changes. References to Mr. Markman as the former City Attorney have been replaced with Nicholas R. Ghirelli as the current City Attorney.
The principal updates are found in Section 5 and include a 5% increase based on the July 2023 fee schedule and include the following billing rate changes:
1. City Attorney - $264/hour ($13/hour increase)
2. Shareholders/Senior Attorneys - $253/hour ($12/hour increase)
2 8
7 6
3. Associates - $239/hour ($11/hour increase)
4. Paralegals - $195/hour ($9/hour increase)
5. Law Clerks - $153/hour ($7/hour increase)
6. Electrical Utility Work
a. Shareholders/Senior Associates - $295/hour ($14/hour increase) b. Other Firm Associates - $232/hour ($11/hour increase) Beginning July 1, 2026, and each July 1 thereafter, rates will automatically adjust based on the Consumer Price Index (CPI) for the Riverside-San Bernardino-Ontario region, as published by the U.S. Department of Labor, for the 12-month period ending April 30. Annual increases will be capped at 5%. If the CPI is not available, the City and RWG will work together in good faith to determine an appropriate alternative. These adjustments reflect standard best practices and help ensure rates keep pace with the rising cost of living and inflation in the region.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The fiscal impact is minimal. The initial 5% increase, followed by annual CPI-based adjustments capped at 5%, represents a modest change – particularly given that rates have not increased in over three years. The cost has been incorporated into the upcoming budget cycle.
COUNCIL MISSION / VISION / VALUE(S) ADDRESSED:
This aligns with City Council’s goals of providing and nurturing an excellent quality of life for all, intentionally embracing and anticipating our future, creating equitable opportunity to prosper, and relentless pursuit of improvement – because approving the Amended and Restated Professional Services Agreement ensures continuity in high-quality legal services, supports fiscal responsibility, and allows for necessary adjustments that reflect regional economic conditions and best practices.

Any other adjustments in the rates shall require prior approval of the City Council. However, the rates will not increase by more than five percent (5%) in any given year without City Council approval even if the CPI increase exceeds that amount. The rates for litigation and reimbursable services as set forth in paragraph 5.B.vii and viii automatically will adjust when the Firm adjusts the standard rates upon which they are based. Standard rates typically are adjusted at the beginning of each calendar year.
D. Attorneys shall be reimbursed for out-of-pocket expenses incident to services performed in addition to other payments for herein, such out-of-pocket expenses to include long-distance telephone charges, extraordinary reproduction costs and non-automobile travel expenses in the event Attorneys are required to travel other than in the Los Angeles, Orange, and San Bernardino County areas on behalf of City.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused these presents to be duly executed with all the formalities required by law on the respective dates set forth opposite their signatures.

SUBJECT: Consideration of Amendment No. 3 to the Professional Services Agreement with Aufbau Corporation (CO19-107) for On-Call Development Plan Check Services in an Increased Amount Not to Exceed $330,000 and Consideration of Amendment No. 2 to the Professional Services Agreement with Fehr & Peers (CO22-125) for On-Call Traffic Impact Analysis Preparation and Review Services, Extending the Term of the Contract Until Completion of the Current Projects Under the Contract. (CITY/FIRE)
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends the City Council and Fire Board of the Rancho Cucamonga Fire Protection District:
1. Approve Amendment No. 3 to the Agreement with Aufbau Corporation (Aufbau) (CO19- 107) for On-Call Development Plan Check Services in an increased amount not to exceed $330,000.
2. Approve Amendment No. 2 to the Agreement with Fehr & Peers (CO22-125) for On-Call Traffic Impact Analysis Preparation and Review Services, extending the term of the contract until completion of the following tasks under the contract.
BACKGROUND:
On July 17, 2019, City Council awarded an on-call professional services agreement for Development Plan Check Services to Transtech Engineers, Inc. (Transtech), Aufbau, and Bureau Veritas for a five (5) year term with an option to renew in one (1) year increments up to a total of three (3) additional years. On September 21, 2022, City Council awarded an on-call professional services agreement for Traffic Impact Analysis and Review Services to Fehr & Peers for a one (1) year term with an option to renew in one (1) year increments up to a total of three (3) additional years. On June 19, 2024, City Council extended the contracts for Transtech, Aufbau and Fehr & Peers for an additional one (1) year until June 30, 2025. Staff elected not to extend the contract with Bureau Veritas due to the consultant not meeting the service needs of the City and Staff.
The extended term of the Agreements is coming to an end, and it is necessary to maintain existing contracts while the consultants complete the ongoing tasks until project completion.

ANALYSIS:
Amendment No. 2 to the Fehr & Peers on-call agreement, on file with the City Clerk’s office, will extend the contract until project completion and acceptance of the projects that have been awarded under the On-Call Contract. This will allow for continuity on ongoing projects to provide optimal services and support for City staff.
Projects under Fehr & Peer’s contract include:
AB98 Update to Rancho Cucamonga Truck Routes
Fehr & Peers continues to meet the service needs of the City and Fire Protection District and staff recommends the City Council and Fire Board of the Rancho Cucamonga Fire Protection District approve the extension of their contract until the project listed above is accepted as complete.
In reviewing the contracts issued this fiscal year under the On-Call Agreement, Aufbau’s annual contract limit will exceed the previously awarded amount of $200,000 by the end of the term of the contract therefore Amendment No. 3 will increase the annual amount not to exceed to $330,000. This work will be completed by the end of Fiscal Year 2024/25 so a term extension is not required. Aufbau continues to meet the service needs of the City and Fire Protection District and staff recommends the City Council and Fire Board of the Rancho Cucamonga Fire Protection approve an increase to the spending limit to a not to exceed amount of $330,000.
Finally, the contract for Transtech will not be extended because there are no ongoing projects under this contract.
The Engineering Services Department released a Request for Statement of Qualifications (SOQ) #24/25-501 on November 18, 2024 to build a new on-call list. City staff are currently reviewing the proposals received, it is anticipated that new On-Call Contracts for the various disciplines will be awarded at the start of Fiscal Year 2025/26.
FISCAL IMPACT:
For development plan check, services will continue to be paid based on a fixed fee schedule with a cost breakdown for each task requested. Compensation for Aufbau shall not exceed $330,000 per year without the City Council approval.
There is no proposed annual amount increase as part of Amendment No. 2 with Fehr & Peers.

Celeste Medrano, Supervisor, Community Services
Jonathan Hilton, Management Analyst I, Community Services SUBJECT: Consideration to Approve Amendment No. 5 to the Ground Lease Agreement Between the City of Rancho Cucamonga and City SoFive Soccer Inc. to Permit Pickleball and Paddleball at the SoFive Soccer Center. (CITY)
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends the City Council:
1. Approve Amendment No. 5 to the Ground Lease Agreement between the City of Rancho Cucamonga and City SoFive Soccer Inc. to permit pickleball and paddleball at the SoFive Soccer Center.
2. Authorize the City Manager, or designee, to execute the Amendment and any necessary ancillary documents.
BACKGROUND:
The City of Rancho Cucamonga entered into a Ground Lease Agreement with Goals Soccer Centers, Inc. on May 4, 2016, for the use of City-owned property for a soccer facility. Since the inception of the lease, the City and Tenant have executed four amendments. In 2020, Goals Soccer Centers, Inc. assigned its interest to City SoFive Soccer Inc., which now operates the facility.
Amendment No. 5 proposes expanded use provisions and updated terms reflecting the City’s evolving recreational objectives and tenant operations. This item is brought before the Council to approve the modified terms that support additional recreational offerings and community benefit programming, specifically permitting the use of pickleball and paddleball at the SoFive Soccer Center.
ANALYSIS:
Amendment No. 5 to the Ground Lease Agreement addresses several key modifications to permit pickleball and paddleball at the SoFive sports facility, including:
1.Expanded Permitted Uses: The amendment now permits the operation of pickleball and
2 8
6 3
paddleball in addition to soccer. Sections 1, 2, 5, and 8 of Amendment No. 5 reflect the changes to the original grounds lease agreement which serve to permit the operation of pickleball and paddleball at the sports facility.
2.Approved Users and Free Use Periods: The amendment formalizes community access by establishing free field use to City-designated “Approved Users” and to host one annual event for such users. Sections 3 and 4 of Amendment No. 5 represent the changes to the original grounds lease agreement which serve to update the terms surrounding approved users and free use periods.
3.Licensee Approval: The amendment allows Tenant to enter into an agreement with a third-party operator subject to written City approval. Amendment No. 5 may be voided should a suitable vendor not be found. Section 7 of Amendment No. 5 reflects the updated points of contact within the City and City SoFive Soccer Inc. to facilitate written communications between the two parties. Sections 6 and 10 of Amendment No. 5 reflect the changes to the original grounds lease agreement which serve the purposes of licensee approval and terms thereof.
The original Ground Lease Agreement, contract 16-093, along with all subsequent amendments, is currently maintained on file with the Office of the City Clerk of Rancho Cucamonga. City SoFive Soccer Inc. shall be solely responsible for securing all requisite permits and approvals from the City of Rancho Cucamonga and any other applicable regulatory agencies prior to the commencement of any construction activities.
These updates align with the Community Services Department’s strategic direction and FY 2025/26 budget goals, to enhance community access to diverse recreational amenities and strengthen public-private partnerships in sports and wellness programming.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The lease amendment does not involve direct expenditure of City funds and carries no fiscal impact. It preserves the financial terms of the existing grounds lease and imposes no new costs to the City.
COUNCIL MISSION / VISION / VALUE(S) ADDRESSED:
This action supports the Council’s Core Values of providing and nurturing an excellent quality of life for all, intentionally embracing and anticipating our future, and creating an equitable opportunity to prosper.

SUBJECT: Consideration to Accept as Complete, File a Notice of Completion, and Authorize Release of Retention and Bonds for the Haven Avenue Sidewalk Improvement Project From Merlot Court to Wilson Avenue (Project). This Project is Exempt from the Requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) per Government Code Section 15301 – Existing Facilities. (CITY)
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends that the City Council:
1. Accept the Haven Avenue Sidewalk Improvement Project from Merlot Court to Wilson Avenue Project, Contract No. 2025-014 (Project), as complete;
2. Approve the final contract amount of $420,365;
3. Authorize the release of the Faithful Performance Bond 35 days after recordation of the Notice of Completion and accept a Maintenance Guarantee Bond;
4. Authorize the release of the Labor and Materials Bond in the amount of $386,270, six (6) months after the recordation of said notice if no claims have been received;
5. Authorize the City Engineer to file a Notice of Completion and release the Project retention, 35 days after recordation of the Notice of Completion; and
6. Authorize the City Engineer to approve the release of the Maintenance Bond one (1) year following the filing of the Notice of Completion if the improvements remain free from defects in material and workmanship.
BACKGROUND:
On February 19, 2025, the City Council awarded a construction contract to Roadway Engineering & Construction Corp., in the amount of $386,270 plus 10% contingency in the amount of $38,627 to address unforeseen construction-related incidentals. A copy of the February 19, 2025, City Council staff report is on file with the City Clerk. The scope of work included clearing and grubbing, tree trimming, tree removal, grading, sidewalk installation, patching asphalt concrete, adjusting
2 8
5 3
existing handholes and pullboxes to new grade, upgrading curb ramps to meet ADA standards, signage, striping, and pedestrian push button relocations. A vicinity map illustrating the Project location is included as Attachment 1.
ANALYSIS:
The Project was completed in accordance with the approved plans and specifications and to the satisfaction of the City Engineer. A total of four (4) change orders were issued during construction, resulting in a net increase of $34,025 to the contract amount. A detailed description of each contract change order is on file with the City’s Engineering Services Department.
The final balancing statement resulted in a net increase of $75 to the final contract amount due to an increase in the final bid quantities of sidewalk and decrease in curb ramp quantity. The balancing statement conforms the final contract quantities to the actual quantities placed or constructed during the contract.
At the end of the one (1) year maintenance period, if the improvements remain free from defects in materials and workmanship, the City Clerk will release the Maintenance Bond upon approval by the City Engineer.
Environmental Review:
The construction completed under the above-reference contract was determined to be exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to Government Code Section 15301(c) “Existing Facilities” subsection (c), Class 1.
FISCAL IMPACT:
A total of $395,808 was budgeted in AB 2766 Air Quality Improvement Fund (105) and $227,192 in the State Grants Fund (214), for a total Project budget of $623,000. Preconstruction expenses, including surveying, right of way acquisition and bid advertisement were completed, totaling $20,063. A total of $466,098 has been allocated for the construction phase of the project from the State Grants Fund (214) and the AB2766 Air Quality Improvement Fund (105). The total funds for the construction phase of the Project were identified under the Capital Improvement Project account No’s listed below:

SUBJECT: Consideration of Resolution No. FD 2025-007 Approving the Annual Local Responsibility Area Wildland Protection Agreement with the California Department of Forestry and Fire in the Amount of $292,990 for FY 2025-
26. (RESOLUTION NO. FD 2025-007) (FIRE)
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends the Fire Board of the Rancho Cucamonga Fire Protection District (District) adopt a Resolution approving the annual renewal of Local Responsibility Area (LRA) Wildland Protection Agreement No. 3CA07218 with the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection (Cal FIRE) for $292,990.
BACKGROUND:
On October 1, 2015, Rancho Cucamonga Fire Protection District contracted with Cal FIRE to provide supplemental wildland fire protection of 1,206.60 acres of wildland within the District. The Fire Board approves the renewal of the Cal FIRE agreement annually.
The City of Rancho Cucamonga also annexed 4,104 acres of State Responsibility Area (SRA), known as the Etiwanda Heights Plan, into the city limits. Approving the annexation required additional supplemental wildland fire protection from Cal FIRE. The total acreage of the wildland contract for FY 2025-26 is 5,271 acres.
The wildland/urban interface area of Rancho Cucamonga is prone to wildfire. As witnessed in the October 2003 Grand Prix Fire and the April 2014 Etiwanda Fire, the magnitude of these wildfires, in terms of suppression efforts and response, far exceeds the capabilities of the District’s on-duty fire crews. Local city fire departments and districts routinely rely on mutual aid to assist each other in large-scale incidents. Mutual aid is a like-for-like provision of resources without cost to the receiving agency. The suppression of massive wildfires is enhanced by utilizing water and retardant-dropping aircraft, hand crews, dozers, and various overhead management positions.
These specialized resources are critical for the initial suppression of a wildland fire. The District does not have these dedicated resources or enough overhead to fill all the needed positions on a complex local mutual threat zone wildfire. The State of California realizes that fires in the Rancho Cucamonga wildland/urban interface are a mutual threat to the SRA and formulates available agreements with local agencies on a per-acre fee.
2 8
5 7
ANALYSIS:
Through this Agreement, Cal FIRE would assume the primary financial responsibility for suppressing wildland fires in the contract area. Our LRA, City incorporated land, would be supported with resources and a level of service provided on the adjacent SRA land without the significant unfunded liability burden.
In the event of a significant wildfire in the contract area, fire suppression costs would likely exceed the proposed contract amount. If the Fire Board chooses not to renew the LRA Wildland Protection Agreement, the actual cost of retardant-dropping aircraft, hand crews, dozers, and various overhead management positions utilized to suppress wildland fires in our LRA will be the responsibility of the Fire District.

SUBJECT: Consideration to Approve a Resolution Adopting Side Letter Agreements and a Joinder Agreement Between the Rancho Cucamonga Fire Protection District and the Fire Union Local 2274 and Fire Management Employees’ Bargaining Group. (RESOLUTION NO. FD 2025-008) (FIRE)
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends that the Fire Board adopt the attached resolution approving Side Letter Agreements and a Joinder Agreement between the Rancho Cucamonga Fire Protection District and the Fire Union Local 2274 and Fire Management Employees’ Bargaining Group, updating the process related to the IAFF Medical Expense Reimbursement Plan.
BACKGROUND:
The Fire Board previously approved Memorandum of Understandings (MOU) between the Rancho Cucamonga Fire Protection District (District) and the Fire Union Local 2274 and between the District and the Fire Management Employees’ Bargaining Group (Fire MEG) effective July 1, 2023 through June 30, 2026.
In May of 2025, the District and Fire Union Local 2274 and Fire MEG met and conferred in good faith and agreed to an updated MOU process related to the IAFF Medical Expense Reimbursement Plan (IAFF MERP).
ANALYSIS:
The agreed addition to Article II, Section 12 of the Fire Union Local 2274 MOU and of Article II, Section 2, Letter D of the Fire MEG MOU: IAFF Medical Expense Reimbursement Plan, addresses the process related to retiree health expense reimbursement benefits. This amendment will allow employee contributions to go to the IAFF MERP of the Washington State Council of Fire Fighters Employee Benefit Trust instead of CalGoVEBA. These contributions will assist employees with planning for future healthcare expenses.
Staff recommends the Fire Board adopt the attached resolution approving the Side Letter Agreements and Joinder Agreement between the Rancho Cucamonga Fire Protection District and the Fire Union Local 2274 and Fire MEG, updating the process related to the IAFF Medical Expense Reimbursement Plan. These Side Letter Agreements shall be incorporated into the MOU. The MOU will remain in full force and effect except to the extent modified by these Side Letter Agreements.

(CITY) RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council receive and file this report.
BACKGROUND:
Established by Resolution 19-075, the Community Parks and Landscape Citizens’ Oversight Committee is made up of members of the public who reside and own property within Landscape Maintenance Districts #1 General City, #2 Victoria, #4R Terra Vista, #6R Caryn Community, and #7 North Etiwanda, Street Lighting District #2 Residential, and Park and Recreation Improvement District #85 (collectively “the Districts”), and do not serve on any other standing City Commission or Committee. The primary purpose of the Committee is to review the annual audit after it is prepared and report the results of its review to the City Council and the community on an annual basis.
The Committee does not have budgetary, operational decision-making authority, nor the authority to allocate financial resources or direct staff.
ANALYSIS:
At our meeting on May 13, 2025, Jevin Kaye, Finance Director, and Chloe Zabrek, Supervisor at Lance, Soll & Lunghard, LLP, provided an overview of the audit for the Districts for the Fiscal Year 2023/24. The reports generated by the audit include:
Audit Communication Letter
Independent Auditors’ Report on Statement of Revenues, Expenditures, and Changes in Fund Balances
Independent Auditors’ Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting By law, each District accounts for its revenue and expenditures in its funds. The auditor reviewed their work, and a discussion was held regarding the audit process and how the City ensures that funds collected for maintenance and operations are spent to benefit each District. The auditors and City Finance staff confirmed that the revenues received have been expended appropriately on maintenance, operations, and capital improvements in each District.

In an effort to address the LMD’s deficit, the Committee, during the meeting, discussed potential ways to increase revenues, such as adjusting fees charged to youth sports user groups that utilized the ball fields, and respectfully recommends that the City Council direct the City Manager to pursue these opportunities directly.
We appreciate the opportunity to serve our community on this Committee. If you have any questions regarding our annual meeting, members of the Committee will be present at the City Council meeting to present this report and discuss those questions with you.
FISCAL IMPACT:
There is no fiscal impact.

25 To the Community Parks Landscape Citizens’ Oversight Committee City of Rancho Cucamonga, California
We have audited the statement of revenues, expenditures and cha nges in fund balances of the Landscape Maintenance Districts #1 General City, #2 Victoria, #4R Terra Vista, #6R Caryn Community, and #7 North Etiwanda, Street Lighting Maintenance District #2 Residential, and Park and Recreation Improvement District #85 (collectively, the “Districts”) of the City of Rancho Cucamonga (the “City”), as of and for the year ended June 30, 2024.
Professional standards require that we provide you with information about our responsibilities under generally accepted auditing standards and, if applicable, Government Auditing Standardsand the Uniform Guidance), as well as certain information related to the planned scope and timing of our audit. We have communicated such information in our letter to you dated April 15, 2024. Professional standards also require that we communicate to you the following information related to our audit.
Significant Audit Matters
Qualitative Aspe
cts of Accounting Practices
Management is responsible for the selection and use of appropriate accounting policies. The significant accounting policies used by Districts are described in notes to the statement of revenues, expenditures and changes in fund balances. No new accounting policies were adopted, and the application of existing policies was not changed during Fiscal Year 2023/24. We noted no transactions entered into by the District during the year for which there is a lack of authoritative guidance or consensus. All significant transactions have been recognized in the financial statements in the proper period.
The statement of revenues, expenditures and changes in fund balances disclosures are neutral, consistent, and clear.
Difficulties Encountered in Performing the Audit
We encountered no significant difficulties in dealing with management in performing and completing our audit.
Corrected and Uncorrected Misstatements
Professional standards require us to accumulate all known and l ikely misstatements identified during the audit, other than those that are clearly trivial, and communicate them to the appropriate level of management.
Management has corrected all such misstatements. In addition, none of the misstatements detected as a result of audit procedures and corrected by management were material, eit her individually or in the aggregate, to each opinion unit’s financial statements taken as a whole.
Disagreements with Management
For
purposes of this letter, a disagreement with management is a financial accounting, reporting, or auditing matter, whether or not resolved to our satisfaction, that could be sign ificant to the financial statements or the auditor’s report. We are pleased to report that no such disagreements arose during the course of our audit.

Management Representations
We have requested certain representations from management that are included in the management representation letter dated March 20, 2025.
Management Consultations with Other Independent Accountants
In some cases, management may decide to consult with other accountants about auditing and accounting matters, similar to obtaining a “second opinion” on certain situations. If a consultation involves application of an accounting principle to the District’s financial statements or a determina tion of the type of auditor’s opinion that may be expressed on those statements, our professional standards requi re the consulting accountant to check with us to determine that the consultant has all the relevant facts. To ou r knowledge, there were no such consultations with other accountants.
Other Audit Findings or Issues
We generally discuss a variety of matters, including the application of accounting principles and auditing standards, with management each year prior to retention as the District’s auditors. However, these discussions occurred in the normal course of our professional relationship and our responses were not a condition to our retention.
Future GASB Pronouncements
The following Government Accounting Standards Board (GASB) pronouncements will be effective for the following fiscal years’ audits and should be reviewed for proper implementation by management:

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT
To the Community Parks Landscape Citizens’ Oversight Committee City of Rancho Cucamonga, California
Report on the Statement of Revenues, Expenditures and Changes in Fund Balances
Opinions
We have audited the accompanying statement of revenues, expenditures and changes in fund balances financial statements of the Landscape Maintenance Districts #1 General Ci ty, #2 Victoria, #4R Terra Vista, #6R Caryn Community, and #7 North Etiwanda, Street Lighting Mainten ance District #2 Residential, and Park and Recreation Improvement District #85 (collectively, the “Districts”) of the City of Rancho Cucamonga (the “City”), as of and for the year ended June 30, 2024, and the related notes to the financial statements, as listed in the table of contents.
In our opinion, the financial st atements referred to above pres ent fairly, in all material respects, the respective financial position of the financial statements of the Districts of the City, as of June 30, 2024, in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Basis for Opinions
We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America and the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards , issued by the Comptroller General of the United States. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the audit of the financial state ments section of our report. We are required to be independent of the Districts and to meet our other ethical responsibilities, in accordance with the relevant ethical requirements relating to our audit. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinions.
Emphasis of Matter
As discussed in Note 1, the financial statements present only the statement of revenues, expenditures and changes in fund balances of the Districts, and do not purport to, and d o not, present fairly the financial position of the City, as of June 30, 2024, the changes in its financial position, or, where applicable, its cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Our opinion is not modified with respect to this matter.
Responsibilities of Management for the Financial Statements
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, and for the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to is sue an auditor’s report that includes our opinions.
Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not absolute assurance and therefore is not a guarantee
To the Community Parks Landscape Citizens’ Oversight Committee City of Rancho Cucamonga, California
that an audit conducted in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, Government Auditing Standards, will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control. Misstatements are considered material if there is a substantial likelihood that, individually or in the aggregate, they would influence the judgment made by a reasonable user based on the financial statements.
In performing an audit in accordance with generally accepted au diting standards and Government Auditing Standards, we:
• Exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skept icism throughout the audit.
• Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, and design and perform audit procedures responsive to th ose risks. Such procedures include examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.
• Obtain an understanding of inter nal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Districts’ internal control. Accordingly, no such opinion is expressed.
• Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluate the overall presentation of the financial statements.
We are required to communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit, significant audit findings, and certain internal control-related matters that we identified during the audit.
Other Reporting Required by Government Auditing Standards
In accordance with Government Auditing Standards, we have also issued our report dated March 20, 2025, on our consideration of the City’s internal control as it relates to t he Districts’ financial reporting and on our tests of its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contra cts, and grant agreements and other matters. The purpose of that report is solely to describe the scope of our testing of internal control over financial reporting and compliance and the results of that testing, and not to provide an opinion on the effectiveness of the City’s internal control as it relates to the Districts’ financial reporting or on compliance. That report is an integral part of an audit performed in accordance with Government Auditing Standards in considering the City’s internal control as it relates to the Districts’ financial reporting and compliance.
