retiring. While the Human Resources Department is working to hire a successor for this role, with the departure of this individual, the City will be losing 30 years of institutional knowledge as well as the necessary knowledge of Workday payroll functions.

To address these challenges and to help support the transition of learning and knowledge to the new Payroll Supervisor and supporting Human Resources staff, City staff believes that amending our contract with our current Workday consultants is necessary. As Workday experts, they have a level of expertise to support both the functional and technical components of Workday more effectively, provide knowledge transfer to City staff, and increase the number of resource hours allocated to the project for ongoing implementation and maintenance tasks. As a result, City staff recommends that the City Council approve an amendment to the existing professional services agreement with REMY Corporation. The proposed amendment would add $150,000 to the professional services agreement. This amount is utilized based on time and material to support Workday needs.

FISCAL IMPACT:

There are no additional appropriations as a result of this action, as the City Council has approved appropriations for contingencies for the Workday implementation project.

COUNCIL MISSION / VISION / VALUE(S) ADDRESSED:

The workday functional and technical consulting and staff augmentation supports the Workday implementation project, which ensures the City Council's vision of intentionally embracing and anticipating the future and creating equitable opportunities to prosper.

SUBJECT: Consideration to Accept Public Improvements located on the Northwest Corner of Foothill Boulevard and East Avenue per Improvement Agreement, Related to Case No. DRC2014-01130, as Complete, File a Notice of Completion, and Authorize Release of Bonds. (CITY) RECOMMENDATION:

Staff recommends that the City Council:

1. Approve and accept the public improvements required for the development of DRC2014- 01130 and authorize the City Engineer to file the appropriate Notice of Completion; and

2. Release Faithful Performance Bond and Labor and Material Bond and accept Maintenance Bond for the associated public improvements; and

3. 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:

DRC2014-01130 was approved by the Planning Commission on May 11, 2016 for the construction of a 193-unit, multi-family residential development with 3,246 square feet of commercial/live work space on 8.8 acres of land within the Community Commercial (CC) Zoning District, located at the northwest corner of Foothill Boulevard and East Avenue. An improvement agreement and securities were approved by the City Council on January 19, 2022 in order to ensure construction of the required public improvements.

ANALYSIS:

All public improvements required of this development have been completed to the satisfaction of the City Engineer.

Prior to construction of the public improvements the developer, Core Rancho, LLC, submitted the following securities to ensure satisfactory completion of the improvements:

Faithful Performance Bond $709,600

City staff conducted a final inspection of the public improvements in July of 2025 and confirmed all work was completed to City Standards.

With the completion of the improvements, the Faithful Performance and Labor and Material bonds are no longer required. The City will retain 10% of the Labor and Material Bond as the Maintenance Bond to secure maintenance of the improvements through the one (1) year warranty period (one (1) year from final inspection). The public improvements will be re-inspected in approximately nine (9) months to ensure they remain in good order prior to release of the maintenance bond.

FISCAL IMPACT:

None.

SUBJECT: Consideration to Accept as Complete, File the Notice of Completion and Authorize Release of Retention and Bonds for the Day Creek Channel Bike Trail Improvements 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 Day Creek Channel Bike Trail Improvement Project, Contract No. 2024-093 (Project), as complete;

2. Approve the final contract amount of $803,925;

3. Authorize the release of the Faithfull Performance Bond 35 days after recordation of Notice of Completion and accept a Maintenance Bond;

4. Authorize the release of the Labor and Materials Bond in the amount of $714,619; six (6) months after the recordation of the Notice of Completion if no claims have been received;

5. Authorize the City Engineer to file a Notice of Completion and release the Project retention payment, 35 days after recordation of 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 May 1, 2024, the City Council awarded a construction contract to US Builders and Consultants, Inc. in the amount of $714,619, plus a 15% contingency in the amount of $107,193 to address unforeseen construction related incidents. A copy of the May 1, 2024 staff report is on the fie with the City Clerk.

The scope of work consisted of applying slurry seal to the existing flood control maintenance road

along with construction of improvements to develop the trail such as curb ramps, sidewalk, retaining curbs, retaining walls, fencing and gates, a new traffic signal system, and signing and striping. A vicinity map illustrating the limits of the Project is included as Attachment 1.

The Project is primarily in San Bernardino County Flood Control District (SBCFCD) right-of-way therefore the Common use Agreement (City Contract No. 09-087, SBCFCD Contract No.10-53 A6 ) between the City and SBCFCD was amended in October 2023, to include maintenance of the Day Creek Channel Bike Trail.

The City was awarded grant funds totaling $510,250 from the San Bernardino County Transportation Authority (SBCTA) through the Transportation Development Act, Article 3 Bicycle and Pedestrian Facilities Program (TDA Article 3) to complete the Project.

ANALYSIS:

The Project has been completed in accordance with the approved plans and specifications and to the satisfaction of the City Engineer. A total of nine (9) change orders were issued during construction, resulting in a net increase of $108,327 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 decrease in the amount of $19,024 due to a decrease in the final placed quantities of asphalt pavement, PCC curb ramp area and the removal of SCE conduit construction from the Project scope. The balancing statement conforms the final contract quantities to the actual quantities placed or constructed during the contract.

At the end of the one-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:

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 – Existing Facilities.

FISCAL IMPACT:

A total of $955,935 was allocated for the construction phase of the Project. After the initial contract award, an additional $60,000 was allocated to cover the increased cost of construction management and inspection fees due to an extended project schedule resulting from third-party delays. Therefore, a total of $1,015,935 was allocated for the construction phase of the Project.

The total funds for this Project were identified under Capital Improvement Project Account No.'s and in the amounts listed below:

SUBJECT: Consideration to Order the Annexation to Landscape Maintenance District No. 1 Related to Case No. BPR2025-00023 (Project), Located at 9325 Lomita Drive. This Project has been Determined by Staff to be Permitted by Right Under State Additional Dwelling Unit (ADU) Law. (RESOLUTION NO. 2025-078) (CITY)
RECOMMENDATION:

Staff recommends the City Council adopt the attached resolution ordering the annexation of the land at 9325 Lomita Drive into Landscape Maintenance District No. 1 for Case No. BPR2025- 00023.

BACKGROUND:

On April 22, 2025, Case No. BPR2025-00023 (Project) was accepted to begin review for the proposed construction of an 831 square foot additional dwelling unit, 499 square foot junior additional dwelling unit, and an addition of 1,106 square feet to the existing home located at 9325 Lomita Drive. Per the City’s Municipal Code, it is required that the applicant sign the Consent and Waiver Form to annex the subject property into the appropriate Landscape Maintenance District.

ANALYSIS:

The owner, Johnson Chen, has submitted the required Consent and Waiver to Annexation form to be annexed into Landscape Maintenance District No. 1. A copy of the form is on file with the City Clerk’s office.

Nonetheless, the project qualifies for a Class 1 Categorical Exemption under Section 15301 of the State CEQA Guidelines - Existing Facilities. This exemption applies to projects involving negligible or no expansion of use and allows for additions of up to 50 percent of the existing floor area or 2,500 square feet, whichever is greater.

SUBJECT: Preliminary Review Hearing to Consider Proposed General Plan Amendments and Zoning Map Amendments to Redesignate 3 Acres of Land at the Red Hill Country Club from a General Plan Land Use Designation of General Open Space and Facilities to Traditional Neighborhood and Rezone the Land from Parks (P) to Low (L) Residential along the Ninth Hole of the Golf Course and Calle Casino for the Purpose of Single-Family Residential Development and Redesignate 3 Acres of Land from a General Plan Land Use Designation of General Open Space and Facilities to Suburban Neighborhood - Low and Rezone the Land from Parks (P) to Medium (M) Residential for the Purpose of Multi-Family Development in the Existing Lower Parking Lot and Tennis Courts of the Country Club along Red Hill Country Club Drive. (CITY) RECOMMENDATION:

Staff recommends that the City Council consider the following:

1. That the City Council consider the policy implications of a proposed General Plan Map Amendments and Zoning Map Amendments for the purpose of redesignating an Open Space and Facilities General Plan land use designation to Traditional Neighborhood and Suburban Neighborhood - Low and rezoning the Parks (P) zone to Low (L) Residential and Medium (M) Residential at two specific project site areas within the Red Hill Country Club, located along Calle Casino and Red Hill Country Club Drive, respectively.

2. That the City Council provide comments so that the applicant can consider whether to proceed with the applications, recognizing that the Council’s direction is not an approval, a guarantee of future approval, nor a guarantee of future recommendation of approval from staff.

BACKGROUND:

Policy
In August 2021, the City Council adopted a policy on providing early Council feedback on applicant-initiated General Plan amendments, Specific Plans, Master Plans, and Development Code amendments, which are considered legislative actions that vest considerable discretion in the City Council. The Current request is for a General Plan Map Amendment and Zoning Map Amendment. This early feedback from Council is to be provided via an administrative hearing.

Page 168 ends
Page 2 ends

2 5
The policy is attached to this staff report for reference as Attachment 1.

In summary, the intent of this policy is that after receiving early Council feedback, the applicant can decide whether to pursue the legislative amendments, and any other entitlements necessary for their project prior to investing significant costs and resources into a project, with the Council’s preliminary policy considerations in mind.

Intent
The purpose of a General Plan Map Amendment is to change the General Plan land use designation for any parcel(s), provided it can be found that the amendment is in the public interest and that the General Plan, as amended, will remain internally consistent. For General Plan Amendments requested by a private property owner, the applicant will have to demonstrate that there is a substantial public benefit to be derived from such amendment and how the proposed amendment furthers the goals of the General Plan.

The purpose of a Zoning Map Amendment is to rezone or change the zoning designation on the zoning map for any parcel(s), provided it can be found that the Zoning Map Amendment is consistent with the General Plan goals, policies, and implementation programs.

Site Context and Proposal
The Red Hill Country Club was first constructed in 1922 while the site was under the jurisdiction of San Bernardino County. When the City of Rancho Cucamonga incorporated in 1977, the Red Hill Country Club fell under the jurisdiction of the City. As early as the 1981 General Plan, the Red Hill Country Club has been classified under and open space land use designation. This land use designation has remained for the site, with the 2021 General Plan maintaining the designation with the General Open Space and Facilities designation. The Red Hill Country Club overall consists of five parcels totaling approximately 132 acres of land with frontages mainly along Red Hill Country Club Drive and Calle Casino.

The applicant, Red Hill Country Club, is proposing to convert the General Plan land use designation and the zoning designation of two, three acre parcels within the existing Country Club in order to set aside land for residential development. One area would be for single-family development of 13 lots while the other area would be for multi-family development of 42 units.

The single-family development area is an unimproved area along the ninth hole of the golf course and Calle Casino that contains foliage. The applicant proposes a General Plan land use designation of Traditional Neighborhood at this area, which allows a maximum residential density of eight units per acre. The zoning designation is proposed to be Low (L) Residential, which allows a maximum density of six units per acre. The multi-family development area is located where the existing lower parking lot and tennis court area are along Red Hill Country Club Drive. This area is currently improved with a parking lot, tennis courts, and landscaping. This area is proposed to receive a General Plan land use designation of Suburban Neighborhood - Low, which allows for a maximum density of 14 units per acre. The proposed zoning designation would be Medium (M) Residential, which permits a residential density between 8 and 14 units per acre.

Figure 1- Subject Areas
A reconfiguration of the existing golf course would be required in order to accommodate the single-family development area. This would consist of changes to the current locations of the fourth and ninth holes as well as the addition of a new water feature on the fourth hole. The overall play length and course challenge would be maintained. Subsequent improvements would also occur as a result of the residential development, including paving a new parking lot and pickleball courts near the existing clubhouse, constructing a new code compliant swimming pool, and constructing a multi-use amenity building to house a snack bar, restrooms, locker rooms, and a fitness studio. Replacement and modernization will also occur to the maintenance facility as well as the club’s irrigation system and controls in order to maximize water efficiency.

Figure 2 – Proposed Site Changes
The purpose of the request to redesignate and rezone portions of land at the Red Hill Country Club for residential use serves to improve the financial footing of the Country Club such that they are able to reinvest in the aforementioned facilities and upgrades that will support the Club’s long range planning goals, expand the recreational offerings, and enhance the member experience.

Investing in residential development on the site provides a financial means to achieve these goals.

The Country Club currently contains a General Plan land use designation of General Open Space and Facilities, which is not intended for residential development as it serves to support lands utilized for recreational, educational, public utility, and flood control uses and systems. The designation does allow for minimal residential development, permitting one unit per ten acres, but this density would not be sufficient for the Country Club to achieve their intended goals. The Country Club also contains a zoning designation of Parks (P), which does not specify a permitted density and therefore defaults to the General Plan land use designation. Both single-family and multi-family uses are not permitted within the zone either. As such, the Red Hill Country would not be capable of developing residential units at the intended density given the existing designation and zoning of the site.

ANALYSIS:

Some of the policy considerations that the Council may contemplate as part of their initial feedback on the subject property may include neighborhood impacts, impact development, and whether the use is appropriate for the site. Below is a summary of the proposed legislative changes with an analysis by staff.

Summary and Analysis of Proposed Legislative Changes

1. A General Plan Map Amendment to redesignate the Country Club’s area along the ninth hole and Calle Casino from a General Plan land use designation of Open Space and

Page 171 ends
Page 5 ends

3 0
2 5
Facilities to Traditional Neighborhood and a Zoning Map Amendment to convert the zoning from Parks (P) to Low (L) Residential in order to allow for the development of 13 single-family lots with minimum lot sizes of 7,200 square feet.

2. A General Plan Map Amendment to redesignate the Country Club’s existing lower parking lot and tennis court area along Red Hill Country Club Drive from a General Plan land use designation of Open Space and Facilities to Suburban Neighborhood - Low and a Zoning Map Amendment to convert the zoning from Parks (P) to Medium (M) Residential in order to allow for the development of 42 multi-family residential units.

As the two proposed requests are substantially similar, there are advantages that apply to both requests. The following are the pros:

1. Housing - The opportunity to develop more housing units will be created, allowing the City to make further progress in achieving its share of the Regional Housing Needs Assessment (RHNA) as listed in General Plan Goal and Policy H-1.1. Redesignating the areas to allow for housing will also increase the property taxes as the site can be reevaluated after improvements are performed and housing is developed. A portion of the property tax goes toward the City, allowing for an increase in revenues generated. A portion of the residences, if not all, will be developed as desirable, for-sale units within the City as well. The types of units developed between to two areas will also differ, offering an assortment of housing types and price points that support General Plan Goal H-1.

2. The Red Hill Country Club predates the formation of the City and has a long standing presence in the community and local business network. These actions would allow for the Country Club to improve their financial footing and generate capital that will be reinvested in facilities to support the long range planning goals of the club, expand their recreational offerings, and enhance the member experience such that they can continue to remain a viable business within the community. These actions support General Plan Goal LC3.10, which encourages development that will support and/or enhance the operations of existing businesses. Maintaining the success of the Country Club benefits the City economically as it maintains higher property taxes collected on residences located in the vicinity of the club, generates tax revenue for the City through property taxes and business taxes applied to the club itself, and allows for the Country Club to perform improvements that have the potential to increase the valuation of the property and the subsequent property tax assessment.

The two requests also similarly have disadvantages that apply to both requests. The following are the cons:

1. Redesignating the subject portions of the Country Club for housing purposes will result in a loss of a portion of the existing golf course property and open space. Although the Red Hill Country Club is a membership and fee based, a loss of available open space will occur as the course and recreational spaces will have to be reduced in size in order to accommodate the potential housing developments. Redesignating land that has been historically utilized as open space for residential use will likely diminish any future opportunities to revert the area back to open space. As such, redesignating the minimal land that the City has available for open space will be further reduced. General Plan Goal RC-6.4 calls for the protection of the City’s healthy trees in order for them to provide shade, carbon sequestration, and purify the air. Goal RC-6.15 similarly calls for heat island reductions through vegetative cover and planting as well as substantial tree canopy

Page 172 ends

2 5
coverage, which the golf course currently provides. The proposed actions would contravene the implementation of these goals, even if only minimally.

2. Although the Country Club, specifically the golf course, has not been previously evaluated or determined to qualify as a historic resource, there is probable evidence that the site has the potential to be designated as a historical site due to its more than 100 year history, notable designers of the course, and impact it has had in the community and larger region.

If the proposed areas were to be redesignated and rezoned to allow for residential development, portions of the layout of the golf course would have to be restructured in such a way that may impact the potential historic designation. Ultimately, the potential historic designation could be affected by these actions. General Plan Goal RC-4.4 encourages the preservation of historic resources, buildings, and landscapes, a goal that may be compromised as a result of the proposed map amendments.

3. Community members who purchased homes in the surrounding neighborhood of the Country Club, specifically the residences that contain views directly onto the golf course, may react negatively to the request as it affects their visibility. While maintaining views in not an enforceable action, the Red Hill Country Club’s longstanding presence in the Red Hill community has established the club as an important identity of the neighborhood.

Alterations to this identity have the potential to be received negatively and generate pushback from residents throughout the entitlement process. General Plan Policy LC-4.1 calls for the preservation and enhancement of the character of existing residential neighborhoods, to which the proposed actions may conflict with.

4. While the proposal will allow for additional, needed housing to be developed, it is not likely that any of the units will be offered at an affordable rate. General Plan Goal H-2 calls for a City where housing opportunities meet the needs of all socioeconomic segments of the community, specifically through the development of affordable housing. Given the context of the existing neighborhood and the applicant’s proposal, it is likely that both the single- family and multi-family units will be for-sale at market rate. As such, the redesignation and rezoning of these two areas within the Country Club will not contribute towards the goal of developing affordable housing options.

Additional Considerations
Additional considerations to consider for the portion of the golf course along the ninth hole and Calle Casino that the applicant proposes to redesignate to Traditional Neighborhood and rezone to Low (L) Residential to allow for the development of 13 single-family residences as the current configuration proposes a layout containing a cul-de-sac. General Plan Goal LC-4.12 discourages conventional suburban neighborhood design, including discontinuous cul-de-sac street patterns.

To achieve this goal through objective development standards as required in the Housing Accountability Act, the Development Code prohibits the development of new cul-de-sac streets.

The applicant proposes the cul-de-sac due to the unique site constraints on the property which they state prevents the development from extending connectivity westwards from Calle Casino and Camino Sur across Red Hill Country Club. As a result, the applicant has found the cul-de- sac layout to be the most practical and context-sensitive solution. Since cul-de-sacs cannot be permitted under current regulations, an additional legislative approval would have to be pursued, such as a code amendment or master plan.

For the lower parking lot and tennis court portion of the Country Club that is proposed for redesignation to Suburban Neighborhood - Low and rezoning to Medium (M) Residential to allow for 42 muti-family units, additional considerations should be made regarding alignment with the

Page 173 ends
Page 7 ends

3 0
2 5
adjacent property designations. The condominium development directly to the east of the subject area contains a General Plan land use designation of Traditional Neighborhood and a zoning designation of Medium (M) Residential. The Traditional Neighborhood land use designation permits a maximum density of eight units per acre. The existing development contains an actual density of eight units per acre, which is compliant with the General Plan land use designation of Traditional Neighborhood. Given that the Country Club is planning for a similar type of residential development, consistency with adjacent designations should generally be followed. If the Suburban Neighborhood - Low General Plan land use designation were to be applied at this location, a maximum density of 14 units per acre would be permitted. Not only would this not align with the adjacent designation, but the density would no longer act as a gradual transition to the lower density, single-family neighborhood to the north and northeast, as required in General Plan Policy LC - 4.11 , which requires new neighborhoods provide appropriate transitions in scale, building type and density between different General Plan designations, Place Types and Community Planning Areas. To meet this policy, density would need to be lower than the adjacent condominium development of 8 dwelling units per acre and greater than the adjacent open space which does not allow residential development.

One final consideration for the council should be the public comments of previous development projects in the Red Hill neighborhood. This historic neighborhood predates city incorporation with limited new development. Each of the developments brought in the last 5-10 years have brought forth public comment regarding traffic in the neighborhood and impacts to existing owners. There is still one existing entitlement yet to be built at the corner of Foothill and Grove that will add 308 multi-family units. While a formal review of any traffic impacts and mitigations required would be considered as part of any entitlement review, the perception of increased traffic issues by residents of the Red Hill neighborhood with each new development remains. While there is limited land left for residential development in Red Hill, redesignating open space for residential will likely continue to press upon the existing infrastructure and while it may or may not become a significant impact from traffic or environmental thresholds, it will likely be perceived by the public as such.

In conclusion, after the administrative hearing, the applicant can determine if they would like to proceed through the standard development review process. If the City Council’s input is not positive, staff shall use this feedback to problem solve with the applicant and make recommendations to the developer for project revisions to address input provided or work on a redesigned or different project. In such case, the applicant shall be welcome to an additional review with the City Council to determine if the revised or alternative proposal may be a better solution.

FISCAL IMPACT:

There is no fiscal impact at this time as the subject recommendation only involves policy discussions related to General Plan and Zoning Amendments.

COUNCIL MISSION / VISION / VALUE(S) ADDRESSED:

Considering the potential application prior to the applicant formally submitting an application as part of the early action policy achieves the Council value of working together cooperatively and respectfully with each other, staff, and all stakeholders. As the applicant is still early in the development process, this discussion with the City Council represents a good faith effort to vet potential major project concerns and questions prior to the developers investing significant costs and resources into formally proposing development at these sites.

INITIATED BY: Matt Burris, Deputy City Manager of Community Development SUBJECT: City Policy Pertaining to Early Feedback on General Plan Amendments, Planned Community, Master Plan and Specific Plan Amendments, and Development Code Amendments. (CITY)
RECOMMENDATION:

Staff recommends that the City Council receive, file and adopt the attached policy on providing early Council feedback on General Plan amendments, Specific Plan, Planned Community or Master Plan Amendments, or Development Code Amendments.

BACKGROUND:

The General Plan and Development Code are the primary documents that regulate the physical development of the city. Additionally, in many areas of the city, Specific Plans, Planned Communities, and master plans serve to regulate land use in place of the Development Code or as a bridge between the General Plan and the Development Code. These documents regulate land uses, infrastructure, and the mitigation of impacts. Under the Development Code, only the City Council, Planning Commission, Planning Director, or a property owner may initiate applications for these legislative amendments. In many cases, property owners (or their agents) who apply for projects that may require multiple entitlements spend several years and thousands of dollars designing a proposed project before ever knowing whether the City Council has any interest in considering the necessary legislative change for the project.

ANALYSIS:

While the City typically receives limited applications for legislative changes such as General Plan amendments, there are currently several such applications undergoing review by the Planning Department. These types of legislative approvals can only be granted by the City Council and have separate and distinct policy implications apart from the merits of a project. In order, however, for an application to be considered by the City Council (under present policy and process), that application must first undergo review and analysis by City staff, potential consideration by the Design Review Committee, environmental analysis under CEQA, and consideration by the Planning Commission. This process can easily take up to 18+ months and require an applicant to spend thousands of dollars for design and studies, all before they have any understanding whether the City Council has an interest in approving such a legislative change, which may be necessary before any other entitlements needed for a project may be approved. In practice, staff is finding that this approach causes a greater degree of uncertainty for the applicant and further complicates the development review process for city staff, particularly in situations with competing interests.

7 There is another alternative; some cities allow for an applicant to seek preliminary feedback from the city council in connection with the merits of a General Plan amendment or other legislative changes. After the Council provides its feedback on the proposed legislative amendment, the applicant can decide whether to pursue the legislative amendment, and the other entitlements for the applicant’s proposed project, with the Council’s preliminary policy considerations in mind. This opportunity provides the applicant with more information about whether the proposed project is likely to be successful after the application has been processed by staff. Rancho Cucamonga’s past practice, dating back to the 1980’s, was to request initial authorization by the City Council prior to beginning any amendments to the development code or any Specific Plan, Planned Community or Master Plan that included more than one parcel or project (i.e., Town Square Master Plan). The City abandoned this policy in 2012 intending to streamline the development review process. While it may streamline the process, the new practice also causes a greater degree of uncertainty and further complicates development review, in some cases actually complicating the process.

Under the new process, a detailed description of the applicant’s project shall not be required.

Staff will work with the City Attorney to analyze the provided information, provide a list of pros and cons, and a staff recommendation to the City Council on only the legislative change for their consideration. The staff report shall include specific language indicating the pre-application review is not an approval nor a guarantee of approval, that staff and the Planning Commission may recommend against, and the City Council may ultimately vote against or not support the project at the project hearings once additional details and analysis become available in the future.

While the City Council would not vote on the project at the time of this administrative hearing, each Councilmember may provide comments addressing positive or negative aspects of the amendment, potential issues that should be evaluated by staff, and suggested changes that could make the amendment more acceptable, if any. The City Council’s comments should focus on the policy implications of the General Plan amendment rather than the project itself. The City Council will not vote on any aspect of the amendment or project, as the intent of the preliminary review process is informational only.

Staff will take the feedback provided by the City Council into consideration to help inform further staff analysis, possible conditions or modifications to the project, the recommendation to the Planning Commission, and ultimately the recommendation to the City Council. Staff shall provide a letter to the applicant following the administrative hearing memorializing the input and results of the hearing. The Applicant may then take that information into account in deciding whether to move forward in the process. After the administrative hearing, the application will move through the standard development review process for review by the Design Review Committee, the Planning Commission, and the City Council per our current process.

This policy shall only apply to private property owners and shall not apply to any City initiated legislative changes. Staff reports on legislative changes shall be prepared and presented only by the Planning Director, the Deputy City Manager of Community and Economic Development, the City Attorney, and the City Manager. The staff report may discuss the proposed project in general terms, but the staff recommendation will only address the General Plan amendment.

It is important to note that an initial City Council direction on a legislative change is not an approval and does not guarantee an approval. It would not involve any consideration of a particular project.

Put more simply, it would only give the Council an opportunity to consider the policy implications

7 of changing the General Plan, Specific Plan, Master Plan, Community Plan, or Development Code, as the case may be. Some of the policy considerations that the Council might consider as part of this initial feedback may include neighborhood impacts, economic development, and whether the use is appropriate for the site. This change creates an opportunity to provide staff and applicants with such feedback before thousands of hours, dollars, and years are spent processing an application. As such, staff recommends re-establishing the City’s prior policy to bring requests for all General Plan amendments, Specific Plan amendments, and Development Code changes requested by owners of real property or their authorized representatives to the City Council for an initial round of feedback. An applicant would still be required to conduct the same CEQA analysis and go through the same development and environmental review if it decides to pursue its applications further. This policy will not apply to any current applications that have been deemed complete.

FISCAL IMPACT:

No fiscal impact.

COUNCIL MISSION / VISION / GOAL(S) ADDRESSED:

This policy helps realize the City Council’s vision for creating a world class community and the City Council value of “Equitable prosperity for all” by helping to identify and remove barriers within the City’s Development Review process.

DATE:August 18, 2021
TO:Anne McIntosh, Planning Director
FROM:Matthew Burris, Deputy City Manager of Community Development SUBJECT: Legislative Changes and Amendments Policy
PURPOSE: To re-establish a policy for initiating General Plan amendments, Specific Plan amendments, and Development Code amendments requested by builders and developers.

BACKGROUND: The General Plan and Development Code are the primary documents that regulate the physical development of the city. Additionally, in many areas of the city, Specific Plans serve to regulate land use in place of the Development Code. These documents regulate land uses, infrastructure, and the mitigation of impacts. The City’s past practice, dating back to the 1980s, was to request authorization by the City Council to initiate any amendments to the development code or any Specific Plan, Planned Community, or Master Plan that includes more than one parcel or project (i.e., Town Square Master Plan). This policy allowed for discussion of the pros and cons of such requests and consideration for larger policy implications. The City abandoned this practice in 2012 with the intent of streamlining the development review process. However, currently, staff is finding that this approach causes a greater degree of uncertainty and further complicates development review. It results in applicants spending many years and thousands of dollars designing a proposed project before ever knowing whether the City Council may even desire considering such legislative changes.

POLICY: An application for a legislative change, such as a General Plan amendment, that is initiated by a private property owner shall be recommended for an administrative hearing before the City Council as the first step in the Development Review process. The Planning Director shall schedule a preliminary review hearing before the City Council once the applicant has provided enough information about the proposed amendment and related project to permit the Planning Director to prepare a staff report for the hearing. This information shall include, but is not limited to, a statement explaining the applicant’s reason for requesting the General Plan amendment, the proposed change in land use designations on the parcel(s), the project’s proposed uses and density, and any other project parameters associated with the amendment that are deemed necessary by the Planning Director. A detailed description of the applicant’s project shall not be required. Staff will work with the City Attorney to analyze the provided information, provide a list of pros and cons, and a staff recommendation to the City Council on only the legislative change for their consideration.

The staff report shall include specific language indicating the pre-application review is not an approval nor a guarantee of approval, that staff and the Planning Commission may recommend against, and the City Council may ultimately vote against or not support the project at the project hearings once additional details and analysis become available in the

future.

While the City Council would not vote on the project at the time of this administrative hearing, each Councilmember may provide comments addressing positive or negative aspects of the amendment, potential issues that should be evaluated by staff, and suggested changes that could make the amendment more acceptable, if any. The City Council’s comments should focus on the policy implications of the General Plan amendment rather than the project itself. The City Council will not vote on any aspect of the amendment or project, as the intent of the preliminary review process is informational only.

Staff will take the feedback provided by the City Council into consideration to help inform further staff analysis, possible conditions or modifications to the project, the recommendation to the Planning Commission, and ultimately the recommendation to the City Council. Staff shall provide a letter to the applicant following the administrative hearing memorializing the input and results of the hearing. The Applicant may then take that information into account in deciding whether to move forward in the process.

If an applicant does not want to go to City Council for the preliminary review and insists on a full hearing on the project merits, they shall sign an At Risk Waiver acknowledging they had the opportunity to go to the City Council on the legislative change but chose to decline. That document will become part of the entitlement package and administrative record.

After the administrative hearing, alternatively, after signing an At Risk Waiver, the application will move through the standard development review process for review by the Design Review Committee, the Planning Commission, and the City Council per our current process. If the City Council’s input is not positive, staff shall use the City Council’s feedback to problem solve with the applicant and work on a redesigned or different project. In such case, the Applicant shall be welcome to an additional review with the City Council to determine if a revised or alternative proposal might be a better solution.

This policy shall only apply to private property owners and shall not apply to any City initiated legislative changes.

Staff reports on legislative changes shall be prepared and presented only by the Planning Director, the Deputy City Manager of Community and Economic Development, the City Attorney, and the City Manager. The staff report may discuss the proposed project in general terms, but the staff recommendation will only address the General Plan amendment.

The City shall not charge a fee for the administrative hearing and will expedite scheduling a hearing date. The Planning Department shall provide the applicant at least ten (10) days written notice of the hearing date and time.

Jennifer Nakamura
Planning Director

CITY OF RANCHO CUCAMONGA
10500 Civic Center Drive
Rancho Cucamonga, CA 91730
Subject: Red Hill Country Club – Land Development Discussion Dear Jennifer,
Thank you for the opportunity to meet and discuss Red Hill Country Club’s interest in pursuing a thoughtful and limited development of underutilized portions of its property over the past months. I am writing to you as both a member of the Club’s Board of Directors and as a land development professional who is assisting the Club in evaluating the feasibility and planning of this initiative.

This effort is driven by the Club’s desire to improve its financial footing and reinvest in facilities that will support its long-range planning goals, expand recreational offerings, and enhance the member experience at our 104-year-old institution.

Specifically, the Club is exploring the potential development of two distinct 3-acre areas:
• The first parcel consists of the Club’s lower-level parking area. We are seeking a zoning designation of M – Medium Residential to allow up to 14 dwelling units per acre. • The second parcel lies along the ninth hole, paralleling Calle Casino. Here, we propose a zoning designation of L – Low Residential, and the development of up to 13 single-family lots, each with a minimum lot size of 7,200 square feet.

With respect to the second parcel consisting of up to 13 single-family lots, we recognize the City’s and community stakeholders’ emphasis on creating connected neighborhoods with grid-patterned street layouts and a limited use of cul-de-sacs. However, given the unique constraints of our property—particularly the inability to extend connectivity westward from Calle Casino and Camino Sur across Red Hill Country Club—a small cul-de-sac configuration is the most practical and context-sensitive solution. This approach allows for the maximum use of excess land without disrupting the surrounding environment.

Attachment 2

Proceeds from the proposed development would be used to reinvest in key Club infrastructure, including:
• New parking and pickleball courts near the existing clubhouse. • A new, code compliant pool with modern, energy efficient systems. • A multi-use amenity building to house a snack bar, restrooms, locker rooms, and a fitness studio. • Upgrades to the Club’s maintenance facility, which is in urgent need of replacement and modernization.
• Modernize the Club’s irrigation system and controls to maximize water efficiency.

To accommodate these enhancements, the fourth and ninth golf holes would be reconfigured. These changes would preserve the play length and challenge of the course while introducing a new fourth hole featuring a signature water feature that would greatly enhance the aesthetic and appeal of the golf experience.

As discussed in our prior meetings, I have attached a conceptual master plan that reflects the Club’s long- term vision once these improvements are completed.

On behalf of Red Hill Country Club, we sincerely appreciate your willingness to bring this initiative forward for preliminary staff and City Council discussion. We respectfully request the City’s consideration of a General Plan Amendment to redesignate approximately 6 acres of our 132-acre property from Open Space to Traditional Neighborhood and Suburban Neighborhood Low, along with corresponding zoning amendments from Parks to Low Residential and Medium Residential.

Thank you again for your time and thoughtful consideration.

Please let me know if there is any additional information I can provide in support of this request. We look forward to working with the City and continuing this conversation.

Best Regards,

Mark Bertone
President, Madole & Associates, Inc.

DATE: October 1, 2025
TO: Mayor and Members of the City Council
FROM: John R. Gillison, City Manager
INITIATED BY: Peter Castro, Deputy City Manager - Administrative Services SUBJECT: Consideration of First Reading of Ordinance No. 1047, to be Read by Title Only and Waive Further Reading, Amending Section 2.16.030 of the Rancho Cucamonga Municipal Code Pertaining to Salaries for Mayor and Members of the City Council. (ORDINANCE NO. 1047) (CITY) RECOMMENDATION:

Staff recommends the City Council introduce for first reading Ordinance No. 1047, to be read by title only and waive further reading, pertaining to salaries for Mayor and Members of the City Council.

BACKGROUND:

The California Government Code provides that a City Council may enact an ordinance providing that each member of the city council shall receive a salary, and that a directly elected Mayor of a general law city may be provided with additional compensation. Those salaries can be adjusted by ordinance in an amount not to exceed 5% for each full calendar year from the operative date of the last adjustment. Any adjustment in Council salaries takes effect following the next regularly scheduled City Council election. Two (2) full calendar years have elapsed since the effective date of the last Council salary adjustment which set the salary at $1,562 per month for Council members and $1,731 per month for the Mayor, effective as of December 2024.

ANALYSIS:

Adoption of Ordinance No. 1047 would provide 5% increases to the Mayor and City Council’s salary. The California Government Code permits increases the compensation to adjust for inflation in order to help keep city councils more diverse by allowing people from across different income levels to serve the public and support their families. The following chart summarizes the 5% change in salaries resulting from this action:

Current Monthly Salary Adjusted Monthly Salary
(Effective December 2026)
City Council $1,562 $1,640
Mayor $1,731 $1,818
FISCAL IMPACT:

The proposed salary adjustments will result in an additional cost of approximately $4,800 per year.
