DATE: May 6, 2026
TO: Mayor and Members of the City Council
FROM: Elisa C. Cox, City Manager
INITIATED BY: Jennifer Hunt Gracia, Deputy City Manager Michael Parmer, Engagement and Special Programs Director Chris Beeman, Deputy Director of Electric Utility Services Deborah Allen, Management Analyst I
SUBJECT: Consideration of a Resolution Amending the Net Energy Metering Policy, Pursuant to the Requirements and Authority of Chapter 3.46 of Title 3 of the Rancho Cucamonga Municipal Code. (RESOLUTION NO. 2026- 028) (CITY)
RECOMMENDATION:

Staff recommends that the City Council adopt the attached resolution amending the Net Energy Metering Policy, pursuant to the requirements and authority of Chapter 3.46 of Title 3 of the Rancho Cucamonga Municipal Code.

BACKGROUND:

Net Energy Metering (NEM) credits customers with eligible renewable systems with the excess electricity generated to send back to the grid. As solar adoption has grown and grid needs have evolved, policymakers have updated NEM policies and tariff structures to better reflect the actual value of exported solar energy.

The California Assembly Bill 327 (AB 327) amended Public Utilities Code Section 2827 to reform the state's net energy metering (NEM) policy. It allowed for the continuation of solar incentives while paving the way for the development of new, sustainable, successor tariffs for customer- generators. It is designed to realign compensation for customer-sited electricity exported to the grid to be based on the overall value of that electricity, rather than prevailing retail electric rates.

However, Publicly Owned Utilities (POUs) such as the Rancho Cucamonga Municipal Utility (RCMU) were unaffected by AB 327, as the California Public Utilities Commission has no authority over POU net metering policies. POUs have no obligation to make any adjustments to their net metering policies based on the CPUC’s net billing tariff, but update it as needed.

ANALYSIS:

Throughout the year, RCMU receives numerous requests from residential and commercial customers to interconnect solar and other renewable generation. RCMU desires to streamline the interconnection process and provide guidance in order to optimize approval while meeting operational and safety standards. This will maintain general consistency to begin a necessary shift in focus to consider the value of solar energy for small-scale distributed systems.

6 6
The proposed updates include establishing a square-footage standard for estimating solar- powered systems, updating the surplus compensation based on system size, and requirements for Net Metering Aggregation while retaining the export compensation rate at $0.0500 per kilowatt- hour (kWh).

For customers determining the appropriate solar-powered system size and distributed energy systems, it should be in relation to their established energy load. Customers that do not have an established twelve-month history, a limit of up to two (2) watts per square foot for residential, and a limit of up to seven (7) watts for commercial, will be established under this updated policy. The forecasted demand must be pre-approved by RCMU.

Surplus compensation shall be available for solar-powered systems sized under 200 kilowatt (kW) only. This balances renewable energy participation with ratepayer equity, grid reliability, and utility financial stability and limits. From an operational standpoint, higher levels of distributed solar can provide cost certainty for both the utility and participating customers while encouraging right-sized installations and on-site consumption that support grid reliability and flexibility. The recommended policy maintains support for distributed generation while recognizing current market conditions, increased solar penetration, and evolving system needs. Customers will continue to reduce their bills through on-site energy consumption while contributing to local renewable energy development and environmental goals.

For Customers served under the Net Metering Aggregation/Virtual Net Metering (NMA), which is typically multi-family complexes, several parameters are necessary to standardize and provide consistency. This requires the solar-powered system or Generating Facility must be owned by the Customer, and is limited to only one generating account and has no load. The generation can be aggregated to additional adjacent properties. It must be sized to produce no more than the total annual energy consumption (kWh) of all benefitting accounts, such as apartment rentals. The kWh allocated to each benefitting account on the property is based on a predetermined percentage that remains in effect throughout the agreement term and cannot be adjusted.

Customers with previously approved interconnection agreements would remain enrolled in the original NEM tariff for 15 years from their interconnection approval date. The new tariff updates price signals and compensation for solar and solar plus battery storage customers, which will improve these customers’ interaction with and contributions to the grid.

Staff recommends approval of the updated NEM policy to ensure the policy remains sustainable for all customers. If approved by the City Council, the revised NEM policy will take effect immediately. Staff will monitor activity related to existing and new NEM customers and evaluate as needed. Customers will continue to reduce their bills through on-site energy consumption while contributing to local renewable energy development and environmental goals.

FISCAL IMPACT:

There is no fiscal impact in the approval of the RCMU Net Energy Metering Policy Update.

COUNCIL MISSION / VISION / VALUE(S) ADDRESSED:

This item addresses the City Council’s vision to build on our success as a world-class community by ensuring the appropriate policies are in place for its Municipal Utility to meet the community’s needs.

A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF RANCHO

CUCAMONGA, CALIFORNIA, AMENDING ELECTRIC RATES AND

CHARGES, PURSUANT TO THE REQUIREMENTS AND AUTHORITY OF
CHAPTER 3.46 OF TITLE 3 OF THE RANCHO

CUCAMONGA MUNICIPAL CODE
A. Recitals

1. The City Council of the City of Rancho Cucamonga has previously adopted Chapter 3.46 of Title 3 of the Rancho Cucamonga Municipal Code establishing Electricity Service Rules and Regulations and authorizing that the rates, fees and charges arising, directly or indirectly, under said legislation be adopted pursuant to resolution, and thereafter, be amended from time to time by resolution.

2. City staff has prepared a comprehensive schedule of the rates, fees and charges that reflect the reasonable and prudent costs relating to the acquisition and distribution of electric power to retail customers and are recommending that the City Council adopt the recommended rates and fees. These rates do not present the City an opportunity to achieve profits or to impose charges in excess of the costs reasonably related to the development, maintenance and expansion of a municipal electric distribution system. The City Council has directed City staff to regularly review the operations of the City’s electric utility to ensure that the rates are sufficient to cover all prudent business costs, reserves and capital equipment acquisition but not exceeding the amount necessary for the same. The rates, fees and charges reflect the reasonable costs to the City system only and do not reflect any excess rates, fees, or charges that are in excess of the reasonable costs of providing the electrical services as set forth hereinafter.

3. The City Council has reviewed the adoption of this Resolution pursuant to the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act of 1970, as amended, and has determined that the adoption of the Electric Rules and Regulations has no foreseeable potential to a result in a significant impact upon the environment and is exempt from CEQA review pursuant to State CEQA Guidelines Section 15061(b)(3). Further, the City Council has determined that the adoption of the fees is exempt from substantive environmental review under Section 15273 of the State CEQA Guidelines as no capital projects for system expansion are included in the proposed action.

4. All legal prerequisites to the adoption of this Resolution have occurred.

B. Resolution

NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF RANCHO CUCAMONGA, HEREBY

RESOLVES,
Section 1.: The facts set forth in the Recitals, Part A of this Resolution, are true and correct.

Section 2.: The rates, fees and charges assessed under Chapter 3.46 of Title 3 shall be as set forth on Attachment 1 hereto and incorporated by reference as if fully set forth herein immediately.

Section 3.: The City Clerk shall certify to the adoption of this Resolution.

For customer accounts established on or after December 1, 2018: The net surplus compensation rate shall be $0.0500 per kWh applied to any net surplus energy remaining at the end of the customer’s twelve (12) monthly billing period (“relevant period”).

Grandfathered Provision: For customer accounts established before December 1, 2018:

The net surplus compensation rate shall be equivalent to the highest hourly rate that was charged for consumption in their OAT during the year prior to the Customer’s Annual Billing Date. This provision will remain in effect for fifteen (15) years from the Customer’s original year in which the generating facility was interconnected to RCMU’s grid. After that period expires, the Customer will receive the current net surplus compensation that is being offered at that time.

D. Rates

1. All rates charged under this schedule will be in accordance with the Eligible Customer-Generator’s otherwise applicable tariff (OAT) or rate schedule. An Eligible Customer-Generator served under this schedule is responsible for all charges in its OAT including the monthly or annual minimum charges (including service, customer, reliability and demand charges, when applicable) regardless of the Customer’s monthly or annual net generation.

Eligible Customers under this schedule are subject to any new or additional charge(s) that may be imposed by the Utility on the other customer in the rate class to which Customer would otherwise be assigned.

2. As determined in each billing period, when a customer consumes more energy than

Page 301 ends

CITY OF RANCHO CUCAMONGA MUNICIPAL UTILITY

ELECTRIC RATES & TARIFFS
27 Effective Date: May 6, 2026
generated at the premises (net consumer), the net consumed energy will be used in the calculation of all applicable energy charges, calculated by multiplying the net amount consumed by the applicable energy rate components of the customer’s OAT.

3. As determined in each billing period, when a customer generates more energy than is consumed by the customer (net generator), the resulting net produced energy will be calculated by multiplying the net produced kWh by the applicable energy rate component of the Customer’s OAT (including TOU periods) and be a credit on the bill. Any net kilowatt -hours of production credit that exceeds the net consumed energy, will be carried forward into the next billing period.

If the Customer’s OAT includes “time of use” (TOU) rates, any net energy consumed monthly shall be calculated according to the terms of the OAT. When the customer is a net generator during any TOU period, the net kilowatt -hours generated shall be valued at the same price per kilowatt -hour as the Utility would charge during that same TOU period.

4. Customers who are Net Surplus Electricity producers at the Customer’s Annual True-Up Date, may elect to either carry over annual Net Surplus Energy production (in kilowatt hours) as a credit that will be applied to kilowatt hours consumed by the Customer or Customer may elect to receive payment to cash out the remaining Net Surplus Energy.

D. Special Condition

1. An executed Net Energy Metering and Generating Facility Interconnection Agreement is required prior to receiving service under this Schedule.

2. Metering Requirements: If the customer’s existing meter is not capable of measuring the flow of energy in two directions, an appropriate meter shall be provided at the expense of the customer.

STANDBY DEMAND CAPACITY RESERVATION CHARGE
(SELF GENERATION)

A. Applicability
Applicable to Large Commercial and Large Industrial customers who operates a non -net metered, non-utility generating facility rated at 1000 kW or less, interconnected on the Customer’s premises and operates in parallel with the City’s electric system. The generating facility is intended primarily to offset part or all of the customer’s own electrical requirements and meets all the applicable safety and performance standards.

Standby service customers have unique electric demands, due to their on -site generation assets, that are often quite different from those of full requirement customers. These customers pay standby rates so that they may, in the event of a planned or unplanned outage of their non-utility generating system, take service from the City electric system. The City bears an “obligation to serve” and must configure their system to allow every customer reliable access to the grid. The standby charge is designed to recover the costs of transmission and distribution facilities, as well as substation and transformers dedicated to the customer’s use that do not vary with usage in maintaining sufficient capacity (through operating reserves) in order to serve an unplanned outage, even if such an outage never occurs. The standby charge also includes appropriate service voltage level distinctions:
secondary and primary.

B. Territory
The entire territory served.

C. Rates

1. Rates for this service shall be the same as for the schedule under which the customer’s otherwise applicable rate schedule shall apply.

2. Standby Demand Capacity Reservation Charge (CRC): A CRC shall be a flat $/kW amount applied to the Standby Demand in kW, which represents the entire reserved capacity needed for the City to serve the self -generation customer’s load, which would have been regularly served by the customer’s generating facility when such facility experiences a partial or complete outage. The level of Standby Demand shall be provided by the customer and shall not exceed the nameplate capacity of the customer’s generating facility.

Standby Charge – Secondary ($/kW) Standby Charge – Primary ($/kW) $8.61 $7.61

3. Demand Charge: As determined in each billing period, a Standby Service customer’s billing demand shall be the kilowatts of Maximum Demand indicated or recorded by instruments, determined to the nearest kW of the absolute net power

Page 308 ends

CITY OF RANCHO CUCAMONGA MUNICIPAL UTILITY

ELECTRIC RATES & TARIFFS
34 Effective Date: January 1, 2026

that the customer received from the City’s electric system. The Demand Charge for each time period shall be based on the Maximum Demand for that time period occurring during the respective monthly billing period.

4. Energy Charge: As determined in each billing period, when a Standby Service customer consumes more energy than generated at the premises, the net consumed energy will be used in the calculation of all applicable energy charges. All Energy shall be billed in accordance with the customer’s Otherwise Applicable Tariff rate schedule which would otherwise apply if the customer had no generating equipment.

5. Other charges: All other specific rate components, including the Power Factor Adjustment Charge, Customer Charge and the State Electric SurTax will not vary based on registered usage or demand of the customer’s generating facility.

D. Special Conditions

1. Contract Required - Customer shall sign an Interconnection Agreement contract for this service, which shall state the number of kW of standby capacity required. "Standby capacity" shall not exceed the nameplate rating of the customer’s generating equipment.

2. Metering Requirements - If the customer’s existing meter is not capable of measuring the flow of energy in two directions, an appropriate meter shall be provided at the expense of the customer. The City may elect to install an additional meter or meters, at the customer’s expense to provide the information necessary to accurately bill or credit the customer.

3. The CRC tariff is only applicable to Standby Service customers who require electric capacity and energy supplied by the City on a regular basis to supplement the Customer’s power requirement in addition to that ordinarily supplied by the on-site non-utility generation facilities. If a customer has a planned generator outage with prior notification given to RCMU for an entire billing period the standby charge will not be applicable.

4. Customers exempted from the CRC tariff:
(a) Customers with backup on -site generation that is used exclusively when service from the utility is not available in the event of an interruption in utility service and which are not used to offset Customer electricity purchases. (b) The applicability of these exemptions shall be determined at the discretion of the Utilities Manager.

5. Standby Demand in kW represents the entire reserved capacity needed for the City to serve the customer’s load, regularly served by the customer’s generating facility when such facility experiences a partial or complete outage. The level of Standby Demand, which shall not exceed the nameplate capacity of the customer’s

Page 309 ends

CITY OF RANCHO CUCAMONGA MUNICIPAL UTILITY

ELECTRIC RATES & TARIFFS
35 Effective Date: January 1, 2026

generating facility, is initially designated by the customer and is set forth in the generation interconnection agreement. Once a customer’s designated Standby Demand has been set, it shall remain at such level for a minimum of 12 months unless, in the City’s determination, the Standby Demand needs to be adjusted to more accurately represent the customer’s actual reserve capacity needs. Upon the City’s determination that the customer’s designated Standby Demand does not reflect the actual level of needed reserve capacity, over any 15 -minute period or through on-site verification, the City shall adjust the Standby Demand to reflect the actual needed reserve capacity. When the Standby Demand is adjusted by the City as provided above, a qualified change in the Standby Demand shall not be made for 12 months from the last adjustment. The customer is responsible for notifying the City of permanent or material changes in their generation facilities (size, type and operations) for future adjustments to the Standby Demand.

6. Diversity Factor - a statistical assumption that a certain percentage of standby load will be utilizing substation and distribution service between each class’ peak demand and the system peak demand. This factor was determined using the diversity factors calculated in the utility’s most recent cost of service study and is embedded in the current CRC tariff. A percentage difference was identified as the diversity factor and the distribution and substation portion of the standby rates were reduced accordingly reflecting a reduction in those infrastructure requirements.

E. Billing Calculation
A Customer’s bill is calculated according to the rates and conditions above. The charges are calculated by applying the Rate Charges on the customer’s applicable nameplate generation capacity for the generating unit at the customer’s facility. All other usage provided by RCMU will be based on the applicable rate tariff, including any riders or additional charges.

Customers served under this Schedule shall pay both energy and non-energy charges on a monthly basis, in accordance with the customer’s Otherwise Applicable Tariff except as otherwise allowed by State law.

POWER COST ADJUSTMENT FACTOR

A. Applicability
The Power Cost Adjustment Factor (PCAF) is a charge per kWh which is used to adjust the Utility’s electric rates for the actual cost of purchasing and generating electric power and energy to service the Utility’s customers and to minimize fluctuations in rates.

The energy charge per kWh in each Rate Schedule recovers the costs of purchasing and delivering power and energy from all suppliers of power and energy, other suppliers and the cost of power from the Utility’s owned generating resources.

B. Territory
Within the entire territory served.

C. Calculation
The PCAF will be calculated using the most recent six (6) month’s actual power cost and applied to each customer’s following monthly billed energy (kWh).

The Adjustment shall be calculated according to the following formula:

PCAF = ((P/S) + L) – B
P = Wholesale power supplier cost*
S = Number of kilowatt-hours sold during the same time period as factor “P” L = System annual average losses
B = The average cost of power per kilowatt-hour sold and recovered through base retail rates

SUBJECT: Consideration of a Resolution Establishing the Days, Time and Place for Regularly Scheduled Meetings of the Rancho Cucamonga Fire Protection District, Housing Successor Agency, Successor Agency, Public Finance Authority, and the City of Rancho Cucamonga City Council and Consideration of a Resolution Establishing the Days, Time and Place for Regularly Scheduled Meetings of the Planning and Historic Preservation Commission, Effective July 1, 2026. (RESOLUTION NO. 2026-030 AND RESOLUTION NO. 2026-031) (CITY/FIRE)
RECOMMENDATION:

Staff recommends the Rancho Cucamonga City Council adopt a Resolution adjusting the start time of Regular Meetings from 7:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. Regular City Council Meetings also serve as the meeting times for the City Council acting as the Fire Protection District, Housing Successor Agency, Successor Agency, and Public Financing Authority; therefore, the adjusted start time will apply to all such bodies convening during Regular Meetings. Staff further recommends approval of a Resolution establishing the days, time, and place for the Regular Meetings of the Planning and Historic Preservation Commission, effective July 1, 2026.

BACKGROUND:

Resolution No. 19-025 established the days, time, and location of the Regular Meetings of the City Council, setting them on the first and third Wednesday of each month and specifying that meetings are held at the City Hall Council Chambers. The resolution also outlines the start times for both the Closed Session and the public portion of the Regular Meeting.

Resolution Nos. 78-07 and 78-17 established the days, time and location of the Planning Commission meetings, setting them on second and fourth Wednesday of each month, initially at 7:30 p.m., then moved to 7:00 p.m.

ANALYSIS:

Regular Meetings of the City Council will begin at 6:00 p.m., rather than 7:00 p.m., to encourage greater participation from residents and business owners. The earlier start time also better aligns with the operational end of the workday and provides the City Council with additional time to deliberate and consider more complex or substantive agenda items. Additionally, pursuant to SB 707, and effective July 1, 2026, residents will have the opportunity to participate in meetings

Page 316 ends

remotely. Further details regarding these changes will be presented to the City Council at a future meeting. Regular Meetings will remain scheduled on the first and third Wednesday of each month and will continue to be held in the City Hall Council Chambers, located at 10500 Civic Center Drive, Rancho Cucamonga, CA 91730. Closed Session will remain unchanged and will continue to begin at 4:30 p.m. in the Tapia Conference Room.

Each Regular Meeting currently begins with Closed Session at 4:30 p.m. for the purpose of conducting Closed Session and City Manager Announcements. A Resolution has been prepared to reflect the new 6:00 p.m. start time for the public portion of the meeting, while maintaining the existing 4:30 p.m. Closed Session start time.

For consistency with the proposed change for the City Council, meetings of the Planning Commission, which also acts as the Historic Preservation Commission, will now start at 6:00 p.m.

A Resolution has been prepared to reflect the new 6:00 p.m. start time for the meeting.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Not applicable.

BACKGROUND:

Since the opening of Hamilton’s Family Brewing (“Hamilton’s”) in September 2025, residents of the adjacent neighborhood have raised concerns about parking, noise, littering, and related impacts to their neighborhood. The City Council has since held administrative hearings on December 17, 2025 and April 1, 2026 to receive comments from the community related to these concerns. Among the residents’ requests is the creation of a residential permit parking district that would prohibit parking of vehicles driven by Hamilton’s patrons on public streets within the neighborhood. In response to these requests, a petition including the residential addresses on Main Street east of Archibald Avenue and Reid Avenue between Main Street and Feron Boulevard was prepared by staff and shared with a neighborhood representative for signature collection.

California Vehicle Code Section 22507(a) authorizes the designation of a residential permit parking district (known in the vehicle code as a preferential permit parking) when a local agency

has enacted an ordinance or resolution permitting such districts. Rancho Cucamonga Municipal Code Section 10.50 – Permit Parking Districts (RCMC 10.50) establishes the local regulations related to the designation of such districts within the City.

Pursuant to the requirements of RCMC 10.50, a petition was delivered to City staff on April 1, 2026 formally requesting the creation of a district.

ANALYSIS:

Upon review of the petition, staff noted that the original area covered by the staff supplied petition form had been expanded and included signatures from residences on the following streets:
•Main Street east of Archibald Avenue
•Reid Street from Main Street to Feron Boulevard
•Feron Boulevard from Archibald Avenue to Hermosa Avenue •London Avenue north of Feron Boulevard
•Jersey Boulevard from London Avenue to Ramona Avenue
•Pasito Avenue north of Jersey Boulevard
•Ramona Avenue north of Feron Boulevard
A review of the residences represented by the petition indicates an uneven distribution of signatures throughout the larger neighborhood with a total of 55% of the residences on the streets listed above agreeing to establishment of a district. To better understand neighborhood support, the petition has been evaluated in three zones as shown on the attached Petition Zone Map (Attachment 2) with support ranging from 30% to 79%. The data obtained from the petition is summarized by zone here:

Zone Streets Number of
Residences
Number of
Signatures
Percentage
A Main Street
Reid Avenue 56 44 79%
B Feron Boulevard 29 14 48%
C London Avenue
Jersey Boulevard
Pasito Avenue
Ramona Avenue
43 13 30%
This analysis shows that the largest support for the creation of a district is within Zone A, which is closest to Hamilton’s while support appears to reduce significantly with distance. While there is not uniform support across the requested district, staff understands that residents further away from Hamilton’s may experience increased parking impacts with the establishment of a district that covers only Zone A, potentially resulting in increased support in Zones B and C.

Proposed District Boundary and Phased Implementation
The boundary of the proposed district is shown in the proposed resolution and includes all the residential properties fronting the streets listed above. However, staff recommend implementation of the district in a phased approach based on the completion of the following actions:

Zone A: Parking would be restricted to residents and their guests as outlined in the resolution and Rancho Cucamonga Municipal Code Section 10.50 upon installation of appropriate signs by the City.

Page 323 ends

Zone B: Parking would be restricted to residents and their guests as outlined in the resolution and Rancho Cucamonga Municipal Code Section 10.50 upon the receipt by the City Engineer of a petition confirming more than 75% of the residences of the zone agree to the establishment of the district and the installation of appropriate signs by the City.

Zone C: Parking would be restricted to residents and their guests as outlined in the resolution and Rancho Cucamonga Municipal Code Section 10.50 upon the receipt by the City Engineer of a petition confirming more than 75% of the residences of the zone agree to the establishment of the district and the installation of appropriate signs by the City.

To ensure that residents of Zones B and C have sufficient time to determine need for the district while also ensuring that the resolution is implemented in a timely fashion, an outside expiration of this implementation option of 180 days from the adoption of the resolution has been included.

Should a petition be received after this timeframe, it would be processed as a new petition and require the adoption of a new resolution by the City Council.

Further, it should be noted that parking restrictions in Zone B along Feron Boulevard between Archibald Avenue and Reid Avenue as outlined in the resolution would allow for unrestricted parking during certain hours on Wednesdays and Sundays to allow on-street parking to serve the existing church that meets on the southwest corner of Feron Boulevard and Reid Avenue. The church has limited on-site parking and issuance of permits would not be feasible. Upon receipt of a petition meeting the 75% threshold in Zone B and prior to implementation of permit parking at this location, staff would contact the church to request a letter indicating their service times. Based on that letter and subsequent modifications requested from time-to-time as service times may change, the City Engineer would establish the times to be placed on the signs to include a reasonable period before and after each service for arrivals and departure of attendees.

Finally, given the intent and nature of a residential permit parking district, non-residential properties have not been included in the proposed district and would not be eligible to obtain permits.

Findings
As previously mentioned, RCMC 10.50 sets forth six findings that must be made by the City Council prior to establishment of a residential permit parking district. Staff’s analysis of the required findings are outlined below.

A. Vehicles, operated by persons whose destinations are outside the proposed parking district, do or may substantially and regularly interfere with the use of the majority of available parking spaces for use of residents within the proposed permit parking district; Under public comment and during the above-mentioned administrative hearings, the City Council has received comments from members of the community regarding impacts to neighborhood parking since the opening of Hamilton’s. Further, the Police Department has received several calls for service related to illegal parking on Main Street over the past six months. While Hamilton’s management have attempted to mitigate this concern through the placing of message boards and signs requesting that patrons refrain from parking in the neighborhood, staff have observed that overflow parking appears to remain an issue at this location.

Page 324 ends

Page 4 ends

3 4
3 1
B. The interference by such vehicles occurs at regular and significant daily or weekly intervals;
The public comment previously provided by residents of the neighborhood indicate that the parking impacts occur during operating hours. Under the approved Minor Use Permit, Hamilton’s is permitted to operate seven days a week, therefore creating the impact on a daily basis.

C. That such vehicles being driven or parked in the area of the proposed permit parking district cause or are the source of unreasonable noise, traffic hazards, environmental pollution, parking availability for residents, or devaluation of real property in such proposed district;
The public comment previously provided by residents of the neighborhood, along with photographs and video supplied to staff and the Council for their consideration, indicate that some patrons walking to and from Hamilton’s from their vehicles along the proposed streets are a source of added to neighborhood noise, especially during hours after dark.

Further, the evidence appears to indicate that some patrons parking in the neighborhood are depositing trash within the public right-of-way and potentially on private property.

Finally, the influx of overflow parking does appear to utilize the limited on-street parking available for use by residents of the neighborhood.

D. That 75% of the residents within the proposed district desire, agree or request permit parking privileges (unless established by city council action in absence of a petition); As mentioned above, a petition was submitted to staff requesting the establishment of a Residential Permit Parking District. For Zone A (Main Street and Reid Avenue), 79% of the residences within this zone have indicated support for the district by signing the petition. While the petition did not meet the 75% threshold for the two remaining zones, a mechanism to streamline implementation into Zones B or C has been included in the proposed resolution. Implementation would move forward in these zones as described in the Proposed District Boundary and Phased Implementation section above.

E. That no unreasonable displacement of vehicles will result into surrounding residential areas;
Based on the proximity of the streets in Zones B and C, there is a possibility that overflow parking from outside the neighborhood may shift to adjacent streets. Given the proximity of the streets in Zone A to Hamilton’s and the through-street nature of Feron Boulevard along with differing types of land uses, staff anticipate that the impacts of such a migration of overflow parking would be less than currently being experienced within Zone A.

However, given the potential for increased parking impacts, Zones B and C have been included in the boundary of the district with a mechanism to streamline implementation in these zones upon submission of a petition showing support of at least 75% of the residents of the zone within 180 days of the adoption of the proposed resolution.

F. That no alternative solution, other than the establishment of the permit parking district, is practical.

There are currently parking restrictions along portions of Main Street. Specifically, these

Page 325 ends

Page 5 ends

3 4
3 1
restrictions are located along the cul-de-sac at the east end of the street and along the south side of the street in front of the senior apartments just east of the Hamilton’s property. Since September 2025, these parking restrictions have been reinforced through the replacement of faded signs and installation of one missing sign. Further, while redundant, curbs have been painted red within the parking restricted areas. However, ongoing calls for service and enforcement of parking violations within the proposed permit parking district have proven ineffective in deterring noncompliance.

Permit Parking District Rules
RCMC 10.50.110 – “Authority of the Engineer” authorizes the City Engineer to establish rules and procedures along with other activities necessary to implement districts created under RCMC

10.50. While the City Engineer may review and update these rules and procedures from time to time, it has been our practice to perform such a review and revision upon the creation of each new district to ensure that changes required over time and new information related to the expansion of the program have been adequately incorporated. Attached is a copy of the rules and procedures updated for May 2026 (Attachment 3).

While the rules and procedures cover many aspects of the program’s operations, we want to highlight a few as they are often most relevant to those living within the district. •Possession and display of a valid permit does not exempt regulation of parking under the California Vehicle Code or the Municipal Code (except with respect to RCMC 10.50). •Residents will need to apply (including supplying evidence of residency within the district) for parking permits as outlined in the rules and procedures to obtain permits. •Each residence will be issued a maximum of five (5) permits, consisting of the following:
o3 – Resident Parking Permits
o2 – Guest Parking Permits
•Permits for Residential Permit Parking Districts are currently issued citywide in five (5) year cycles. The current permit cycle is valid through July 31, 2030. •Fees for permits are currently established at $10 for the first permit and $2 for each additional permit requested in the application. This may be waived or partially waived by City Council action as discussed below.
•A process exists to accommodate special events hosted by residents within the district should the total of five (5) permits be insufficient to accommodate event guests.

Enforcement
Enforcement of parking restrictions by sheriff deputies, including Residential Parking Permit Districts, within the city is currently performed on a call-for-service basis. Residents may call the Police Department’s non-emergency number when a vehicle not displaying a valid permit is observed within the district. Depending on the active calls at the time, response for enforcement may be delayed until higher priority calls are cleared. As the City’s Parking Division comes online, regular patrol for the Parking Enforcement Officers will be determined.

The penalty for violating RCMC 10.50 is issuance of citation (the fine is currently $50). This fine is not waived if the owner of the car has a permit, but the permit is not displayed. Based on the concerns raised during the April 1, 2026 administrative hearing regarding potential impacts to the neighbors for the cost of towing, staff is not recommending the use of towing solely for violations of RCMC 10.50 within the proposed district. If the need to tow become necessary to adequately enforce the permit parking restrictions in the future, staff will bring a new recommendation to the

Page 326 ends

Page 6 ends

3 4
3 1
City Council for consideration at that time.

Permit Fee Waiver
Permit fees are intended to cover all or a portion of the City’s cost to create and operate the district including issuance of permits. The current fees assessed for issuance of permits currently cover a small portion of that cost. The MUP Determination Letter for the operation of Hamilton Family Brewery states that the Brewery would pay for a parking district should the City determine the need for one. Given the concerns raised by residents of the proposed district and the efforts by all parties to find solutions to those concerns, staff believe that a similar waiver of the initial permit issuance fees to the business will allow for progress toward resolving parking and other neighborhood concerns. Furthermore, staff recommend waiving the permit fees for a period of 5 years. Without these waivers, additional time would be required to develop and navigate a new process for funding by the business owner as the City does not currently have a similar situation in place for other permit parking districts.

To our knowledge, the City Council has waived the permit fees for the initial permit issuance for one district at its creation to provide relief during the initial phase of implementation. Permits are currently issued on a five-year cycle for all Residential Permit Parking Districts citywide with the current cycle expiring in July 2030. To provide a complete permit cycle without cost to the residents of the district, a waiver period of five (5) years from the establishment of the district is recommended.

Residential Permit Parking Dissolution Procedure
In the event the residents of the district or the City Council desire to eliminate the proposed district in the future, RCMC Section 10.50.120 allows for dissolution by a resolution of the City Council.

The municipal code does not set any required findings by the City Council prior to dissolution.

Therefore, if the request is initiated by residents of the district, staff would recommend that such a request be accompanied by a petition representing 75% percent of the residences affected by the request. This will provide support of general agreement within the neighborhood that the district is no longer desired.

Environmental
The creation of the proposed Residential Permit Parking District has been reviewed by staff and determined to be exempt from the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to Section 15301(c) – Existing Facilities of the CEQA Guidelines as it consists of a minor modification to on-street parking management within the proposed district and involves no expansion of use of the currently available on-street parking.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Sufficient funds are available within the adopted Fiscal Year 2025/26 operating budgets of the Engineering Services and Public Works Services Departments’ to purchase and install the necessary signs, produce and issue parking permits, and administer the district. Further, should the recommended permit fee waiver be approved, no new revenue will be collected to partially offset those costs for a period of five-years. Based on the current permit fee schedule for Residential Permit Parking Districts, the permit fee waiver is estimated to be between $2,000 and $5,000 over the five-year period (i.e., two cycles of permits) depending on implementation in Zones B and C.

INITIATED BY: Matt Marquez, Economic Development Director Flavio Nunez, Management Analyst II
Eddie Flores, Management Analyst I
SUBJECT: Public Hearing to Approve the Draft 2026-2027 Annual Action Plan (AAP) for the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Program. (CITY)
RECOMMENDATION:

Staff recommend the City Council:

1. Conduct a public hearing and receive comments on the draft 2026-2027 Annual Action Plan (AAP) for the use of Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds.

2. Approve the 2026-2027 AAP and authorize the City Manager, or designee, to submit the Plan and any necessary amendments to the Plan to the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD).

3. Provide City Staff with a methodology to distribute funds should the City’s 2026-2027 CDBG annual allocation increase or decrease.

4. Authorize the City Manager, or designee, to negotiate, execute, and amend contracts with subrecipients or professional service providers as necessary to implement the CDBG projects identified in the 2026-2027 AAP.

5. Authorize the City Manager, or designee, to execute, amend, and submit to HUD all plans and documents necessary to administer the 2026-2027 CDBG programs.

6. Authorize the appropriation of funds for the 2026-2027 CDBG program.

BACKGROUND:

The CDBG Program is a federally funded program administered by HUD. The program provides annual formula-based funding to entitlement communities, including the City of Rancho Cucamonga, to support activities that primarily benefit low- and moderate-income households.

CDBG funds may be used for a wide range of eligible activities, including public services, housing rehabilitation, infrastructure improvements, and economic development initiatives. All funded

activities must meet one of HUD’s national objectives, such as benefiting low- and moderate- income persons, aiding in the prevention or elimination of slum or blight conditions, or addressing urgent community needs.

As an entitlement jurisdiction, the City receives an annual allocation of CDBG funds directly from HUD and is responsible for the planning, administration, and implementation of eligible programs and projects. The City develops an Annual Action Plan, which outlines proposed uses of CDBG funding and aligns with the priorities identified in the City’s Consolidated Plan.

The City has historically utilized CDBG funds to support programs and services that address critical community needs, including housing preservation, public services, and neighborhood improvements, consistent with federal regulations and local priorities.

ANALYSIS:

As of the preparation of the Draft AAP, HUD has not released the official 2026–2027 CDBG allocation amounts. Accordingly, HUD has directed the City of Rancho Cucamonga to prepare the Draft AAP using the current year allocation and to include a methodology for adjusting program budgets should the final allocation differ.

For planning purposes, the City anticipates receiving approximately $1,045,075 in CDBG entitlement funds for Program Year 2026–2027. In addition, the City will program $274,579 in prior-year unallocated funds, resulting in a total estimated program budget of $1,320,284. These funds will support a range of eligible activities to be implemented between July 1, 2026, and June 30, 2027, including public services, capital improvements, and program administration.

Public Service Activities
Northtown Housing Development Corporation: Senior Meal/Activities Program $25,000 Northtown Housing Development Corporation: Kids Meal Activity Program $25,000 Foothill Family Shelter: Stepping Stones Housing Program $15,000 Inland Valley Hope Partners: Food Security/Family Stabilization Program $15,000 City of Rancho Cucamonga: Bringing Healthy Home $20,000 City of Rancho Cucamonga: CHAMPS Program $15,000
City of Rancho Cucamonga: Senior Service Programs and Activities $21,500 Sub-Total: $136,500
Capital Activities
City of Rancho Cucamonga: Home Improvement Program $342,643 City of Rancho Cucamonga: Concrete Rehabilitation Project $600,000 WeeCare, Inc. dba Upwards Care, Inc.: Boost Program $32,000 Sub-Total: $974,643
Program Administration Activities
CDBG Program Administration $189,141
Fair Housing Foundation: Fair Housing Services $20,000
Sub-Total: $209,141
TOTAL 2026-2027 CDBG PROGRAM $1,320,284

Because the final allocation amount has not yet been confirmed, staff is recommending that the City Council adopt a methodology to adjust activity funding levels as needed. If the City’s allocation is higher than anticipated, Fair Housing funding will remain fixed at $20,000, while Program Administration will be increased, as needed, up to the allowable 20% cap. Any remaining funds will be allocated to the Home Improvement Program.

Conversely, if the allocation is lower than anticipated, Fair Housing funding will remain unchanged at $20,000, while Program Administration will be reduced to remain within the 20% cap. Public Service activities will be proportionally reduced to comply with the 15% cap, and the remaining funding adjustment will be applied to the Home Improvement Program. All other funding levels will remain as proposed in the Draft AAP.

This approach provides a clear and transparent framework for adjusting the CDBG budget while maintaining compliance with federal requirements and preserving the City’s priority programs and services.

FISCAL IMPACT:

There is no impact to the City’s General Fund associated with the proposed activities. As an entitlement jurisdiction, the City receives annual CDBG funding from HUD.

The 2026–2027 AAP allocates an estimated $1,045,705 in current-year CDBG funds (or as otherwise determined by HUD), along with $274,579 in prior-year unprogrammed funds, for a total program budget of $1,320,284, to be appropriated to account no. F240-CC301-6600-SC2106.

These funds will be used to support eligible activities consistent with the City’s Consolidated Plan and Strategic Plan goals.

The requested appropriations reflect the allocation of available CDBG funds to the programs and projects identified in the AAP.

COUNCIL MISSION / VISION / VALUE(S) ADDRESSED:

Acceptance of these funds and implementation of the programs will advance the City Council’s vision of creating an equitable, sustainable, and vibrant community with opportunities for all residents to thrive.

Executive Summary
AP-05 Executive Summary - 24 CFR 91.200(c), 91.220(b)

1. Introduction
On May 21, 2025, the Rancho Cucamonga City Counc il adopted the 2025-2029 Consolidated Plan which described the City's housing and community development needs, strategies and activities to address those needs over a five-year period using entitlement grant funds provided by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). The 2026-2027 Action Plan is the second annual plan implementing the 2025- 2029 Consolidated Plan Strategic Plan goals via th e investment of annual al locations of Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds from HUD. The Action Plan identifies available resources, annual goals, projects, and activities for the period beginning July 1, 2026, and ending June 30, 2027.

The City receives CDBG funds from HUD on a formula basis each year, and in turn, awards grants and loans to non-profit, for-profit, or public organizations for p rograms and projects in furtherance of this Plan. The CDBG program provides a wide range of eligible acti vities for the benefit of low- and moderate-income Rancho Cucamonga residents, as discussed below.

In addition, the City is a member of the San Bernar dino County HOME Consortium. The HOME Investment Partnerships Program (HOME) is an additional HUD formula grant that provides funding to support the acquisition, construction, and rehabilitation of aff ordable rental and homeownership housing. The County administers the program and oversees HOME activities and programs that occur in Rancho Cucamonga.

Community Development Block Grant (CDBG)
The CDBG program, established under the Housing an d Community Development Act of 1974, is a flexible federal funding source designed to address a wide range of housing and community development needs.

HUD evaluates the City’s Consolidated Plan and program performance based on three primary objectives:
providing decent housing, creating suitable living en vironments, and expanding economic opportunities for low- and moderate-income households. To qualify for CDBG funding, each activity must meet one of the following national objectives:
• Benefit low- and moderate-income persons
• Prevent or eliminate slums and blight
• Address an urgent community development need (usu ally the result of a natural disaster or public health emergency)
Each year, the City certifies with the submission of its Annual Action Plan that it has given maximum feasible priority to activities which meet the first and second ob jectives above. Additionally, the City certifies that no less than 70 percent of the CDBG funds received, over a three-year certification period, will be designed to benefit low- and moderate-income persons.

City of Rancho Cucamonga - 2 - 2026 Annual Action Plan

2026-2027 Program Year
During the 2026-2027 program year, the City will re ceive approximately $1,045,075 of CDBG funds. The 2026-2027 Action Plan will allocate its current year CDBG allocation of $1,045,075 and $274,578.75 in prior year unprogrammed CDBG funds for a total budget of $1,320,283.75 to the following program activities to be implemented from July 1, 2026, through June 30, 2027.

If the City’s 2026-2027 annual allocation should change, a request of the City Co uncil is being made to provide staff and the public with a methodology for which activity budgets would be adjusted. It is recommended that City Council adopt the following la nguage for adjusting activi ty budgets for the CDBG program should the City’s 2026-2027 annual allocation change:
• Should the CDBG allocation be higher than $1,045,705 (draft AAP utilized this amount for budgetary purposes):
o Fair Housing services will remain funded at $20,000 but the CDBG Administration budget will be increased to fully utilize the 20% cap for Administration activities. o The balance of additional funds will be allocated to the City’s Home Improvement Program. o Funding levels for all outstanding activities will remain the same as proposed in the 2026- 2027 Action Plan.
• Should the CDBG allocation be lower than $1,045,705 (draft AAP utilized this amount for budgetary purposes):
o Fair Housing services will remain funded at $20,000 but the CDBG Administration budget will be reduced to be compliant with the 20% cap for Administration activities. o All Public Service activities will receive a proportional reduction to be compliant with the 15% cap for Public Service activities.
o Balance of funds will be deducted from the City’s Home Improvement Program. o Funding levels for all outstanding activities will remain the same as proposed in the 2026- 2027 Action Plan.

2. Summarize the objectives and outc omes identified in the Plan The 2025-2029 Consolidated Plan is grounded in a comprehensive, data-driven needs assessment and market analysis, combined with insights gathered f rom residents, community organizations, and other local stakeholders. This approach ensures that CDBG funds are directed toward high priority needs that align with the City’s goals.

Based on this, the City has identified six (6) high priority needs, which will be addressed through six (6) goals over the five-year period. These goals establish a clear framework for the allocation of CDBG funds which ensure that federal investments produce measurable outcomes. Each goal is tied to specific outcome indicators which allow the City to track progress, assess performance, and evaluate the impact of HUD- funded activities. The following table summarizes the goals, priority needs, and expected five-year outcomes.

Consistent with HUD's national goals for the CDBG program to provide decent housing opportunities, maintain a suitable living environment and expand economic opportunities for low- and moderate-income residents, the priority needs listed in the table below will be addressed over the Five-Year Consolidated Plan cycle through the implementation of CDBG funded acti vities aligned with the fo llowing measurable goals included in the Strategic Plan section of this Plan:

4. Summary of Citizen Pa rticipation Process and consultation process The Consolidated Plan regulations at 24 CFR Part 91 provide the citize n participation and consultation requirements for the development of the Consolidated Plan. Chief among those requirements is the need to consult with the Continuum of Care (CoC) to addre ss homelessness, Public Housing Authorities (PHA), businesses, civic leaders, and public or private agencies that address housing, health, social service, victim services, employment, or education needs of low-income individuals and families, homeless individuals and families, youth and/or other persons with special needs. Information supplied by these community stakeholders, together with the data supplied by HUD resulted in a well-informed planning document that reflects the housing, community, and economic developm ent needs and priorities for the City over the five- year Consolidated Plan cycle.

In accordance with the City’s Citizen Participation Pl an (CPP), residents and st akeholders were able to participate in the development of the 2025-2029 Conso lidated Plan through surveys, community meetings, and public hearings. Efforts were ma de to encourage participation by low- and moderate-income persons, particularly those living in areas where HUD funds are proposed to be used, and by residents of predominantly low- and moderate-income neighborhoods. Efforts were made to encourage the participation of minorities and non-English speaking persons, as well as persons with disabilities. The consultation process included representatives of the Co C, PHA, and other specified groups who completed surveys, provided local data, and assisted the City to ensure practical coordination of strategies to maximize impact and to avoid duplication of effort.

AP-10 Consultation – 91.100, 91.200(b), 91.215(l)

1. Introduction
The City of Rancho Cucamonga conducted a comprehensive consultation process to ensure that the 2025- 2029 Consolidated Plan reflects the needs and prioriti es of residents, service providers, and community stakeholders. In compliance with 24 CFR Part 91, the City engaged a wide range of public and private agencies, regional planning entities, and service providers that support low- and moderate-income residents, special needs populations, and individuals experienci ng homelessness. The goal of this process was to enhance coordination among local government agencies, non-profits, housing developers, businesses, and service organizations to create a cohesive strategy for improving housing affordability, public services, public facilities, and infrastructure. To fac ilitate the consultation process, the City solicited feedback through the following methods:
• Community Survey (web‐based and paper)
• Community meetings
• Stakeholder consultations
• Public hearings
• Receipt of written and oral comments
To gather the greatest breadth and depth of information, the City consulted with a wide variety of agencies, groups, and organizations concerning the housing, community, and economic development needs of the community.

Each of the agencies, groups, or organizations invited to consult and participate in the planning process is represented in the table below. The input received from these consultations helped establish and inform the objectives and goals described in the Strategic Plan.

Provide a concise summary of the jurisdiction's acti vities to enhance coordination between public and assisted housing providers and priv ate and governmental health, ment al health and service agencies (91.215(I)).

The City recognizes the importance of careful coordi nation and alignment among various service providers to maximize the effectiveness of the CDBG program. As a result, during the development of the Consolidated Plan, the City consulted with organizations that p rovide assisted housing, h ealth services and other community-focused programs. Outreach efforts includ ed surveys, invitations to community meetings, and follow-up interviews where appropriate.

The City further recognizes the importance of cont inued coordination and alignment during the upcoming five-year planning period with these organizations an d agencies. The City will reinforce these partnerships through the implementation of the Notice of Funding Availability (NOFA) process for CDBG funds each year and through technical assistance provided to subrecipients.

Describe coordination with the Cont inuum of Care and efforts to address the needs of homeless persons (particularly chronically homeless individuals and families, families with children, veterans, and unaccompanied youth) and persons at risk of homelessness The San Bernardino County Continuum of Care (CoC) is comprised of a network of public, private, faith- based, for-profit, and non-profit service providers that collaborate to addre ss homelessness and housing instability. This collaborative stru cture supports a range of programs an d services funded through federal, state, and local resources including transitional ho using, rapid re-housing, homelessness prevention, and supportive services. The City and CoC work in close pa rtnership to ensure that housing and services are targeted, equitable, and responsive to the evolvi ng needs of individuals and families experiencing homelessness, including chronically homeless person s, veterans, families with children, unaccompanied youth, and those at risk of homelessness.

Ongoing coordination occurs through public meetings such as the CoC Membership and Board, as well as through working groups, regional action plan teams, and elected officials’ forums. These collaborative spaces allow for broad stakeholder participation, including individuals with lived experience of homelessness, service providers, housing developers, healthcare partners, and local jurisdictions.

Through regular consultation with the CoC, the City of Rancho Cucamonga ensures that the Consolidated Plan reflects the needs of homeless populations and integrates with broader re gional strategies. This partnership strengthens the City’s ability to coordinate resources, bridge service gaps, and achieve shared goals to reduce homelessness and support housing stability for all residents.

To address the City's homeless popula tion, the City utilizes CDBG funds to provide public and supportive services to prevent homelessness and/or aid those wh o are homeless or at risk of becoming homeless.

Homeless supportive and prevention services fund ed through the City's CDBG 2026-2027 program year include:
• Foothill Family Shelter – Provides homeless and low-income individuals and families with housing and food security.
• Inland Valley Hope Partners – Provides homele ss and low-income individuals and families with housing and food security.
• Inland Fair Housing and Mediation Board – Addre sses fair housing mediation and families with housing and resolution services, which helps prevent homelessness. • Bringing Health Home – Provides low-income individuals who are food insecure with access to health nutritional food options.

Describe consultation with the Continuum(s) of Care that serves the jurisdiction's area in determining how to allocate ESG funds, develop performance standards an d evaluate outcomes, and develop funding, policies and procedures for the administration of HMIS
Although not a direct Emergency Solutions Grant (ESG ) entitlement community, the City consulted with a number of housing, social services, governmental, an d other entities involved in housing and community development in the region. Through these consultation s, the City identified th e holistic needs of the community, including those for extremely low-income households and homeless persons, and how the City can continue to effectively coordinat e with regional homeless service prov iders to best meet the needs of

City of Rancho Cucamonga - 20 - 2026 Annual Action Plan

To promote economic opportunities for low-income residents, the City coordinates with subrecipients, social service agencies, businesses, and housing developers to ensure that where there are job opportunities for low-income individuals in connection with HUD-assi sted projects, information is disseminated through appropriate channels consistent with the objectives of Section 3 of the Housing and Community Development Act of 1968.

Narrative
Broadband

According to the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) National Broadband Map, nearly all of Rancho Cucamonga is classified as having universal broadband coverage, defined as access to speeds of at least 25 megabits per second (Mbps) download and 3 Mbps upload (25/3 Mbps). However, this designation masks important nuances regarding the quality, reliability, and affordability of broadband service available to different segments of the community. While many higher-income neighborhoods benefit from the latest fiber optic technology and competitive service offerings, othe r parts of the City, particularly neighborhoods with higher concentrations of low- and moderate-income households, continue to rely on older infrastructure that is prone to slower speeds, higher latency, and more frequent service disruptions.

Affordability remains the single most significant barrier to broadband access for Rancho Cucamonga’s most vulnerable residents. The digital divide in the City is not primarily about whether broadband service technically reaches a household, it is about whether residents ca n afford and sustain that service at a quality level sufficient for modern demands such as remote work, online schooling, and telehealth. The recent phase-out of the FCC’s Affordable Connectivity Program (ACP), which provided su bsidies of up to $50 per month to low-income households for broadband service, has only intensified this challeng e. As of December 2023, over 11,655 households in Rancho Cucamonga had enro lled in the ACP, demonstrating both the scale of local demand for affordable internet access and the pote ntially destabilizing impact of losing this federal assistance. The discontinuation of this program und erscores the need for alternative strategies and partnerships to maintain affordable connectivity for low-income residents.

To help bridge these access and affordability gaps, the City of Rancho Cucamonga has taken proactive steps through the development of its Municipal Broadband P rogram. Leveraging existing City-owned fiber optic infrastructure, this program is design ed to provide high-speed internet access at more affordable rates for both businesses and residents. While the Municipal B roadband Program is still in its early stages, its expansion represents a critical opportunity to prom ote digital equity and support the City’s economic development objectives, particularly in historically underserved areas.

Further supporting broadband access, Rancho Cucamonga adheres to HUD’s “Narrowing the Digital Divide” rule (81 FR 92626), which requires that all new construction or substantial rehabilitation of HUD- assisted multifamily housing includes broadband infrastructure capable of meeting minimum speed thresholds of 25/3 Mbps. This ensures that publicly supported housing developments will not be left behind in the digital economy. Nevertheless, even with these requirements in place, gaps in broadband adoption persist, particularly among renters, seniors, and non-English speaking households who may face additional barriers related to cost, digital literacy, or access to devices.

City of Rancho Cucamonga - 21 - 2026 Annual Action Plan

Hazard Mitigation

The City of Rancho Cucamonga, like many jurisdictions across Southern California, is increasingly vulnerable to a range of natural hazards inte nsified by climate change. As deta iled in the City’s 2021 Local Hazard Mitigation Plan (LHMP), the most significant climate-related hazards threatening Rancho Cucamonga include wildfires, drought and water shortages, extreme heat events, flooding, and earthquakes. While the City has experienced exposure to these types of natural hazard s, climate change is amplifying their frequency, severity, and duration, creating heightened risks to public safety, housing stability, critical infrastructure, and economic resilience.

One of the most pressing threats is the increasing freq uency and intensity of wildfires. Rising temperatures, prolonged periods of drought, and changing vegetati on patterns have contributed to larger and more destructive wildfires throughout California. In addition to direct threats to life and property, wildfire smoke poses serious health hazards, especially for sensitive populations such as children, seniors, and individuals with respiratory conditions. The City’s lower-income households, who may lack access to air filtration systems or safe evacuation options, face heightened exposure to these risks.

Compounding the threat of wildfires is the increasing ri sk of drought and water scarcity. Persistent drought conditions across California have re duced snowpack levels in the Sie rra Nevada mountains, diminished reservoir storage, and contributed to groundwater de pletion. In Rancho Cucamonga, prolonged drought places significant strain on the region’s water supply systems, with implications for residential water access, municipal services, landscaping, and fire suppression capabilities. As drought conditions persist, water costs are expected to increase, disproport ionately affecting low- and modera te-income households who already struggle with rising housing and utility costs.

Rancho Cucamonga is also vulnerable to extreme heat events, which are projected to become more frequent, longer lasting, and severe in coming decades due to climate change. Periods of extreme heat pose substantial health risks, particularly for low-income households living in older housing units that lack adequate insulation or air conditioning. Exposure to high temperatures can lead to heat stroke and other life-threatening conditions, especially among seniors and individuals with pre-existing medical conditions.

Flooding presents another critical hazard exacerbate d by climate change. While Rancho Cucamonga does not face risks from sea-level rise like coastal communiti es, the City is susceptible to flooding from severe storms, heavy rainfall, and flash flood ing events, particularly in areas wi th limited stormwater infrastructure or poor drainage. Increased precipitation variability, co upled with prolonged dry periods that harden soils, increases the likelihood of stormwater runoff and localized flooding. These conditions are most acute in older neighborhoods where infrastructure may not be suffici ent to accommodate high-intensity rainfall events.

Flooding not only threatens property and infrastructure but can also lead to health hazards from mold, contamination, and disruptions to essential utilities.

AP-12 Participation – 91.105, 91.200(c)

1. Summary of citizen particip ation process/Efforts made to broaden citizen participation The City of Rancho Cucamonga conducted a comprehensive citizen participation process to ensure that the 2025-2029 Consolidated Plan accurately reflects communi ty needs and priorities. The public engagement process was designed in accordance with the City’s Citizen Participation Plan (CPP) and HUD regulations (24 CFR 91.105), ensuring that residents, local organizations, and community stakeholders had meaningful opportunities to participate in shaping the City’s housing and community development strategies.

The Economic Development Department led outreach efforts, emphasizing broad public engagement, particularly among low- and moderate-income residents, individuals with disabili ties, racial and ethnic minorities, non-English-speaking populations, and public housing residents. The City also actively consulted with local and regional institutions, businesses, deve lopers, non-profit and faith-based organizations, the Continuum of Care (CoC), and the Public Housing Agency (PHA) to ensure a coordinated and holistic approach to addressing housing and community development needs.

To identify and prioritize community needs, the City developed and distributed a survey to gather input on housing, community, and economic development needs. The survey was available in English, Spanish, and Chinese, accessible online and in paper format, and posted at variou s public facilities to maximize participation.

The City hosted a community meeting on January 23, 2025, where residents and stakeholders participated in interactive discussions and provided feedback on local housing and community development needs.

In compliance with 24 CFR 91.105(e)(1)(ii), the City conducted two public hearings at different stages of the planning process. The first public hearing was convened on September 16, 2025, and focused on reviewing program performance. A draft of the 2024-2025 Consolid ated Annual Performance and Evaluation Report (CAPER) was made available for public review from September 1, 2025, to September 16, 2025, but no public comments were received.

Subsequently, the City made the draft 2026-2027 Action Plan available for public review and comment from April 6, 2026, to May 6, 2026. Residents were invited to review the draft documents and to attend the Public Hearing on May 6, 2026, or submit written comments concerning the housing and community development needs, proposed projects and activities, as well as proposed strategies and actions for affirmatively furthering fair housing.

Introduction
The projects and activities included in the 2026-2027 Action Plan are based on resources that are reasonably anticipated to be available to the City from July 1, 2026, through June 30, 2027. The actual re sources available to support acti vities during the implementati on of the remainder of the 2025-2029 Consolidated Plan may vary significantly due to factors outside of the City’s control. For example, HUD formula grant allocations are subject to change each year based on several factors such as the amount of the national appropriation, ch anges in ACS population data applied to the CPD gran t formulas, statutory changes to the grant programs, the addition or removal of enti tlements receiving a particular grant, and the availability of reallocated funds.

For the 2026-2027 program year, the City anticipates it will receiv e $1,045,705 in CDBG funds. When combined with available pri or year resources, the 2026-2027 Action Plan will allo cate $1,320,283.75 of CDBG funds to activi ties that will be implemented from July 1, 2026, to June 30, 2027.

HOME Match Requirements
The City does not receive HOME as part of its entitlem ent allocation. The amount of matching, is therefore, not applicable to Rancho Cucamonga.

If appropriate, describe publicly ow ned land or property located within th e jurisdiction that may be used to address the needs identified in the plan
The City owns a variety of public facilities that serve Rancho Cucamonga residents. Over the remaining five- year Consolidated Plan cycle, the City proposes to target a significant portion of its CDBG funding to enhance its public facilities and infrastructure in predomin antly low- and moderate-income neighborhoods that need revitalization. As such, the City is committed to exploring opportunities to leverage these publicly owned sites in combination with CDBG funds to maximize the impact of limited public funding to meet high priority community needs.

Discussion
During the 2026-2027 Program Year, the City anticipates that these funds will be leveraged with other public and private funding. Along with leveraged dollars, the City expects to invest approximately $1,320,283.75 of CDBG funds during the program year on public se rvices, affordable housing preservation, economic development, as well as public facility and infrastruc ture improvement activities that promote suitable living environments, provide decent housing and expand ec onomic opportunities for low- and moderate-income residents.

Describe the reasons for allocation priorities and any obstacles to addressing underserved needs Based on the Strategic Plan, the City is allocating 100 percent of its CDBG funds (excluding program administration) for program year 2026-2027 toward projects and acti vities that benefit low- and moderate- income households. Due to the nature of certain activi ties to be undertaken, investments in public service activities as well as public facilities and infrastructure improvements may be limited to the CDBG designated low- and moderate-income areas while other activities benefit low- and moderate-income clientele and are available citywide.

The primary obstacles to meeting the underserved n eeds of low- and moderate -income residents include limited funding from federal, state and other local sources, the high cost of housing that is not affordable to low-income households, and the lack of availability of home improvement financing in the private lending industry. To address these obstacles, the City is investing CDBG funds through the 2026-2027 Action Plan in projects that provide public services to low- and moderate-income households, preserve affordable housing, expand on economic opportunities, and improve public facilities and infrastructure.

AP-50 Geographic Distribution – 91.220(f)
Description of the geographic areas of the entitlement (including areas of low-income and minority concentration) where assistance will be directed
Assistance will be primarily directed to activities that serve low- an d moderate-income residents citywide.

During the 2026-2027 program year, two (2) public servic e activities rely on the established low- and moderate-income area. Those are the CDBG-eligible p ortions of the Bringing Healthy Home Program and CHAMPS Program.

The low- and moderate-income census tract/block grou ps are shown on the map included in Appendix B.

Based on 2016-2020 ACS data, the City qualifies as an “e xception grantee” with an exception threshold of

43.7%. This means that, for the purposes of the CDBG program, an area is considered low- and moderate- income if at least 43.7%. of residents have househ old incomes at or below 80% of AMI. Consequently, CDBG-funded activities that qualify under the area benefit criteria must serve areas where at least 43.7%. of residents are low- and moderate-income.

Geographic Distribution
Target Area Percentage of Funds
Citywide 97%
CDBG Eligible Areas 3%
Table 9 - Geographic Distribution
Rationale for the priorities for allocating investments geographically For the 2026-2027 program year, the City will invest $1,320,283.75 of CDBG funds that will benefit low- and moderate-income residents. Of this amount, $35,000, or 3%, of all CDBG resources will be invested in public services that serve areas where at least 43.7% of residents are low- and moderate-income. Due to the nature of the activities to be undertaken, investments in activities such as Bringing Healthy Home Program and the CHAMPS Program are targeted to the designated CD BG Low- and Moderate-Income Areas (LMA), while other activities serve low- and moderate-income clientele are available citywide.

Discussion
The City is allocating 100 percent of its non-admini strative CDBG funds for the program year 2026-2027 to activities that benefit low- and moderate-income residents.

Affordable Housing
AP-75 Barriers to Affordable Housing
Introduction
A barrier to affordable housing is a public policy or nongovernmental condition that constrains the development or rehabilitation of affordable housing, such as land use controls, property taxes, state prevailing wage requirements, environmental protection, cost of la nd and availability of monetary resources. Barriers to affordable housing are distinguished from impediments to fair housing choice in the sense that barriers are lawful and impediments to fair housing choice are usually unlawful.

Based on information gathered during community m eetings, the Consolidated Plan Survey, the 2021-2029 Housing Element and market analysis, the primary barriers to affordable housing in Rancho Cucamonga are housing affordability and the lack of monetary reso urces necessary to develop and sustain affordable housing. The two barriers are related in the sense th at demand for affordable housing exceeds the supply and insufficient resources are available to increase the supply of affordable housing to meet demand.

To address housing affordability and the lack of mone tary resources for affordable housing, the 2026-2027 Action Plan will invest $342,642.75 for the rehabilita tion of 12 owner-occupied single-family household housing units.

Actions it planned to remove or ameliorate the negative effects of public policies that serve as barriers to affordable housing such as land use controls, tax policies affecting land, zoning ordinances, building codes, fees and charges, growth limitations, and policies affecting the return on residential investment In the development of the 2021-2029 Housing Element, the City evaluated significant public policies affecting affordable housing development such as land use cont rols, tax policies affecting land, zoning ordinances, building codes, fees and charges and growth limitations . Based on this evaluation, the City determined that it has taken all necessary steps to am eliorate the negative effects of pu blic policies that may have been a barrier to affordable housing. Moreover, the City is actively engaged with affordable housing developers concerning the siting of affordable housing and ensuri ng that the entitlement process runs smoothly from inception to completion. Action plans identified in the City’s 2021-2029 Housing Element include but are not limited to:
• Continue to promote the conservation of mobile home parks through implementation of the Mobile Home Accord (Program HE-7) that serves as a re nt stabilization agreement between the City and mobile home park owners, implementation of th e Mobile Home Rental Assistance (Program HE-8) that provides a monthly rental subsidy to low- income mobile home households, and through the enforcement of Title 24 as it applies to mobile homes to ensure mobile homes meet applicable building code requirements.

Page 385 ends

City of Rancho Cucamonga - 39 - 2026 Annual Action Plan

• Develop a procedure to monitor the development of vacant and nonvacant sites in the sites inventory and ensure that adequate sites are available to meet the remaining Regional Housing Needs Allocation (RHNA) by income category throughout the 6th cycle planning period. • Explore a system that establishes ta rget densities by land use district and an in-lieu fee system that requires developers to pay a fee if the proposed projects fall below the targeted densities. • Develop incentives and tools to facilitate ADU construction that may include:
o Fee waivers or reductions beyond State requirement;
o Pre-approved site/floor plans;
o Website information on resources and technical assistance; and o Guidance handbook for property owners looking to construct an ADU. • Provide fee underwriting, fee deferral, public imp rovements, and/or permit fast-tracking for housing affordable to lower income households, prioritizing projects that include units affordable to extremely low-income households.
• Continue to evaluate and improve the permit p rocessing procedures to facilitate residential development.
• Continue to study the feasibility of an inclusionary housing ordinance. • Update the Development Code to address the provision of special needs housing specifically for Low Barrier Navigation Centers (AB 101), Emergency and Transitional Housing (AB 139), Supportive Housing (AB 2162), Large Residential Care Facilities, and Definition of Family. • Update the Development Code to incorporate the new density bonus provisions which will allow for approval of development incentives such as redu ction in certain development standards such as reduced setbacks, reduced public/private open space, increased maximum lot coverage and increased building height.

Key improvements and bonuses included to help increase the development of affordable housing include but are not limited to:
• Accessory dwelling units (ADUs) can provide an important source of affordable housing for persons and families of low and moderate income. An ADU is defined as “an attached or detached residential dwelling unit which provides complete independent liv ing facilities for one or more persons. It shall include permanent provisions for living, sleeping, eat ing, cooking and sanitation on the same parcel as a single-family or multi-family dwelling is si tuated”. The City adopted an updated accessory dwelling unit (ADU) ordinance in 2020 which complie s with State requirements. Per the ordinance, ADUs are permitted by-right in any zone in whic h residential development is permitted and on any parcel with an existing or proposed single or multi-family residence. • A Housing Program has been added to update Development Code Chapter 17.46 to comply with the new State provisions related to affordable housin g density bonuses. The City's Affordable Housing Incentives/Density Bonus Provisions assist in the development of affordable housing opportunities in accordance with Government Code § 65915-65918. These provisions allow a density bonus and other regulatory concessions to provide incentives for "the production of housing for very low income, lower income, moderate income, and senior households" to "facilitate the development of affordable housing" within the City. The provisions function by allowing a reduction in development standards in

Page 386 ends

City of Rancho Cucamonga - 40 - 2026 Annual Action Plan

exchange for the development of affordable housing units. Regulatory concessions act as incentives, which can include reduced building setbacks, re duced open space, increased lot coverage, increased maximum building height, reduced on-sit e parking standards, reduced minimum building separation requirements, or other site or constr uction conditions applicable to residential development.
• To increase transparency and certainty in the deve lopment application process as required by law, the City has a variety of tools available for developers. The City ’s Community Development home page provides links to an online permit center, development fees, the development code, and other development information at https://www.cityofrc.us/community-development.

The following are the City’s goals to reduce government constraints and increase efficiency in processing for improving and developing housing as defined in the 2021-2029 Housing Element:
• Development Review Process - Consider new policies, codes, and procedures that have the potential to reduce procedural delays, provide informat ion early in the development process regarding development costs, and charge only those fees ne cessary to adequately carry out needed public services and improvements.
• Fee Schedule - Periodically review and update the City's fee schedule and the methodology on which the fees are based to determine the necessary co sts for providing adequate public services and public improvements to ensure the continued health, safety, and welfare of the community. • Development Review Process - Facilitate the deve lopment review process for new housing through multiple techniques, including staff assistance, public information, articles in the City's newsletter, informal meetings with applicants , and Preliminary Review applications to address technical issues and facilitate the production of quality housing.
• Development Standards - Evaluate and adjust as appropriate resi dential development standards, regulations, and processing procedures that ar e determined to constrai n housing development, particularly housing opportunities for lower and moderate-income households and for persons with special needs.

Discussion
To address housing affordability and the lack of mone tary resources for affordable housing, the City will continue to leverage its CDBG funds to attract private and other available public resources to incentivize the development of new affordable housing units and the preservation of existing affordable housing.

Through the City’s Home Improvement Program, it will provide financial assistance to low- and moderate- income owners of single-family housing and help preser ve the homes that need critical home improvement.

Inland Valley Hope Partners Food Security/Family Stabilization Program furthers the aim of affordable housing by financially assisting low- to moderate-income re sidents who are at-risk or experiencing homelessness through emergency rental assistance payments.

AP-85 Other Actions – 91.220(k)
Introduction
In the implementation of the 2026-2027 Annual Action Plan, the City will invest CDBG resources to address obstacles to meeting underserved needs, foster and ma intain affordable housing, reduce lead-based paint hazards, reduce the number of poverty-level fam ilies, develop institutiona l structure, and enhance coordination between public and private housing and social service agencies.

Actions planned to address obstacles to meeting underserved needs The primary obstacles to meeting the underserved needs of low- and moderate-income people include lack of funding from federal, state and other local sources, th e high cost of housing that is not affordable to low- income households, and the lack of home improvement financing in the private lending industry. To address these obstacles, the City is investing CDBG funds through the 2026-2027 Action Plan in activities that provide public services to low- and moderate-income hous eholds, residents with special needs, and those experiencing or at risk of becoming homeless.

Actions planned to foster and maintain affordable housing During the 2026-2027 program year, Rancho Cucamonga will invest CDBG funds to preserve and maintain affordable housing through the City’s Home Improvemen t Program that will provide financial assistance to low- and moderate-income homeowners to preserve th eir residence. Inland Valley Hope Partners Food Security/Family Stabilization Program fu rthers the aim of affordable housin g by financially assisting low- to moderate-income residents who are at-risk or expe riencing homelessness through emergency rental assistance payments.

Actions planned to reduce lead-based paint hazards
The Residential Lead Based Paint Hazard Reduction Act of 1992 (Title X) emphasizes prevention of childhood lead poisoning through housing-based approaches. To reduce lead-based paint hazards, the City of Rancho Cucamonga will conduct lead-based paint testing and risk assessments for each property assisted under the Home Improvement Program that was built prior to January 1, 1978, and will incorporate safe work practices or abatement into the scope of work as required to re duce lead-based paint hazards in accordance with 24 CFR Part 35.

Actions planned to reduce the number of poverty-level families The implementation of CDBG activities meeting the goals established in the City’s Consolidated Plan will help to reduce the number of poverty-level families by:
• Providing public services designed to address th e needs of low- and moderate-income households, residents with special needs, and those experien cing homelessness to ameliorate the effects of poverty.

Page 388 ends

City of Rancho Cucamonga - 42 - 2026 Annual Action Plan

• Improving public facilities and infrastructure to benefit residents in predominantly low- and moderate- income areas or those presumed under HUD regulati ons to be low- and moderate-income such as elderly residents and disabled adults.
• Supporting activities that preserve the existing housing stock that is affordable to low- and moderate- income households.
• Expanding economic opportunities for low- and moderate-income residents.

In addition to these efforts, mainstream state and fe deral resources also contribute to reducing the number of individuals and families in poverty. Federal progra ms such as the Earned Income Tax Credit and Head Start provide pathways out of poverty for families wh o are ready to pursue employment and educational opportunities. Additionally, in California, the primary programs that assist families in poverty are CalWORKs, CalFresh (formerly food stamps) and Medi-Cal. Togeth er, these programs provide individuals and families with employment assistance, subsidie s for food, medical care, childcare and cash payments to meet basic needs such as housing, nutrition and transportation.

Inland Fair Housing and Mediation Bo ard’s Fair Housing Services Progra m will assist low- to moderate- income households to provide guidance, services and information regarding fair housing rights and help with fair housing complaints that may be discriminating. Ad ditionally, Foothill Family Shelter’s Housing and Food Security Program will be providing homeless individual s with housing, food and hygiene assistance. These individuals will be provided transitional housing and/or basic necessities to help against the cost of necessary products and inflation.

Actions planned to develop institutional structure
Rancho Cucamonga’s institutional delivery system is highly collaborative, well-structured, and equipped with experienced public and private sector partners. One of the key strengths of the system is the diverse network of service providers capable of leve raging CDBG funds to address affordable housing, public services, and community development needs. To enhance the effectiveness of the institutional delivery system and address service gaps, the City will collaborate with nonprofit agencies receiving CDBG funds through the 2026-2027 Action Plan to ensure that the needs of low- and mo derate-income residents are met as envisioned within the 2025-2029 Consolidated Plan.

Actions planned to enhance coordination between public and private housing and social service agencies To enhance coordination between public and private housing and social service agencies, the City will continue consulting with and inviting the participation of a wide variety of agencies and organizations involved in the delivery of housing and supportive services to low- and moderate-income residents in Rancho Cucamonga. With improvements in technology, the City will expand its outreach efforts to enhance coordination with public and private housing and social service agencies through social media platforms such Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, etc.

Discussion
In the implementation of the 2026-2027 Annual Action Plan, the City will invest CDBG resources to address obstacles to meeting underserved needs, foster and ma intain affordable housing, reduce lead-based paint hazards, reduce the number of poverty-level fam ilies, develop institutiona l structure, and enhance coordination between public and private housing and social service agencies.
