SCAQMD Proposed Rule 1111 & Rule 1121
Mayor Pro Tem Shaw explained that his request for Council to consider taking action regarding South Coast Air Quality Management District's (SCAQMD) Proposed Amended Rule 1111 (PAR 1111) and Proposed Amended Rule 1121 (PAR 1121) was originally introduced during the March 18, 2025 meeting. The Council agreed to table the matter to allow additional time to review the revised SCAQMD proposals. The PARs seek to transition to zero-emission space and appliances, based on future effective dates when existing appliances need to be replaced.
CC_April 1, 2025
PAR 1111, as currently proposed, after the applicable compliance date, no person shall manufacture, supply, sell, resell, offer for sale, import, or install, any furnace for use in the South Coast AQMD, that exceed the NOx emission limits. PAR 1121, as currently proposed, after the applicable compliance dates, no person shall manufacture, supply, sell, resell, offer for sale, import, or install a Water Heater for use in the South Coast AQMD that exceeds the NOx emission limits.
As public comment, Michael Krause, representing SCAQMD, reported on the recent revisions made to the proposed rules, stating the rules were not a ban on natural gas. He said any additional costs to the consumer were nominal, and he highlighted the rebate program. He requested the City hold off on a decision tonight and wait until the newest revisions are presented to San Bernardino Transportation Authority (SBCTA). Eight people, including Michael Paisner, Dick Corneille, of ANCA, Andrea Vidaurre, Yassi Kavezade, Pete Marsh, Jennifer Cardenas, of the Sierra Club, Ann Pemick, and Vanessa supported the SCAQMD proposed rules. They spoke of the need for programs that can reduce NOx emissions and addressed the importance of seeking ways to transition away from fossil fuels. They pointed out that each person must play a part in promoting a safer and cleaner community, especially because this region has the worst air pollution in the nation. Andy Hoder and Dale Broome were against the proposals, citing the rules do not promote their cause and the costs would be enormous. They wondered whether there would even be any available funding for rebates.
Council Member Davis thanked everyone who spoke. She thought that opposing the SCAQMD programs would put the City on the wrong side of history and would be in opposition to the City's Climate Action Plan. Council Members raised questions and concerns related to the overall costs, the viability of relying on one energy source, the timing of a decision and the value of waiting until the newest versions were presented to SBCTA and other agencies.
On motion of Council Member Eddie Tejeda, seconded by Council Member Paul Barich, the City Council unanimously agreed, by roll call vote, to table the matter to allow additional time to consider the revised proposals. There was consensus to wait and see how San Bernardino Transportation Authority (SBCTA) and other agencies intend to vote on the new version of Rule 1111 and Rule 1121.

PROCLAMATION
National Day of Prayer
WHEREAS, Americans have long turned to prayer both in times of joy and times of sorrow. On their voyage to the New World, the earliest settlers prayed that they would "rejoice together, mourn together, labor, and suffer together, always having before our eyes our commission and community in the work;" and
WHEREAS, from that day forward, Americans have prayed as a means of uniting, guiding, and healing. In times of hardship and tragedy, and in periods of peace and prosperity, prayer has provided reassurance, sustenance, and affirmation of common purpose; and WHEREAS, the National Day of Prayer is a tradition in this country dating back to 1775; and WHEREAS, at a time in our nation's history when the power of prayer is needed more than ever, it is fitting that individuals come together in the community to publicly demonstrate their faith in the power of divine intercessions; and
WHEREAS, in 1988, the first Thursday in May was pennanently chosen as National Day of Prayer; and
WHEREAS, the National Day of Prayer belongs to all Americans. It is a day that transcends differences, bringing together citizens from all backgrounds.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the City Council of the City of Redlands does hereby proclaim May 1, 2025, as the National Day of Prayer and urges all citizens to observe this day in keeping with their personal beliefs.
IN WITNESS WI-IEREOF, we hereunto affix our signatures and Official Seal of the City of Redlands on this I5 th day of April 2025.

City Council Meeting I. 4.
DATE: 04/15/2025
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council Members
SUBJECT: Adopt Resolution No. 8680 approving the City Council Member Reference Handbook (Assistant City Manager McConnell)
MOTION(S):
If the City Council determines that staff’s recommendation is appropriate, the following motion is provided:
I move to adopt Resolution No. 8680.
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council adopt Resolution No. 8680 approving the City Council Member Reference Handbook.
DISCUSSION:
The creation of a City Council Reference Handbook (“Handbook”) began as part of a new onboarding experience for all city staff. Although new council members are typically introduced to the executive staff and receive overviews of the municipality's function, there was no existing comprehensive resource for new council members.
The intention of the Handbook is a compilation of existing laws, policies and practices of the City Council to serve as an orientation tool for new City Council members and as a reference manual with information concerning the municipality's governing structure, department functions, communications between city staff and elected officials, as well as the expectations of the City Council, City Manager, and City Attorney. The Handbook is a collection of City Council practices, policies and ordinances relevant to the roles and responsibilities of City Council members, as well as state laws pertaining to legislative bodies and elected officials, such as the Ralph M. Brown Act and the Political Reform Act of 1974.
The Handbook is not all-inclusive, nor does the city intend for it to supersede The Handbook is not all-inclusive, nor does the city intend for it to supersede any local, state, or federal law. The Handbook is an evolving document, and may be amended as needed.
ALTERNATIVES:
The City Council may choose not to approve the Handbook.

3. Council Administration3.1 Ethics Training California Government Code Section 532.35 requires that specified local agency officials receive at least two (2) hours training in ethics every two years. Local agency officials include City of Redlands elected officials. In addition, any newly elected or appointed local agency official must receive two (2) hours of ethics training within one year of taking the oath of office and once every two years thereafter. Ethics training is available through the City 3.2 Political Reform Act of 1974 The Political Reform Act of 1974 provides for 1) the comprehensive regulation of campaign financing, contributions and expenditures by candidates and ballot measure committees; 2) regulates lobbyists financial disclosures and lobbying activities; and 3) it sets out ethical rules for state and local government officials that imposes strict limits on decisions or votes that affect the official's financial interests, including an official's interests in business entities, sources of income and real property. (Government Code, Sections 81000-91015) City County Handbook 202523
Conflict of Interest - General Provisions of the Law The Political Reform Act of 1974 regulates conflicts of interest of state and local government officials through public disclosure and prohibition (recusal) from participation in decisions, which constitute conflicts of interest under the Act. The Fair Political Practices Commission is the state agency that enforces the Political Reform Act. Council Members must disqualify themselves from making or participating in making or influencing any governmental decision that will have a foreseeable material financial effect on any economic interest of the Council Member or certain family members. Government Code Section 87105 states that a Council Member who has a conflict of interest upon identifying a conflict of interest or a potential conflict of interest and immediately prior to the consideration of the matter must do all of the following: A. Publicly identify the financial interest. This must be done in enough detail for thepublic to understand the financial interest that creates the conflict of interest.Note: Residential street addresses do not have to be disclosed.B. Recuse yourself from both the discussion and the vote on the matter. You mustrecuse yourself from all proceedings related to the matter.C. Leave the meeting room until the matter has been completed. The matter isconsidered complete when there is no further discussion, vote or any other action.Exception If the matter is on the consent calendar, the council member must public identify their financial interest, but does not have to leave the room. Exception: Under limited circumstances, if the council member wishes may do so as long as they have complied with the disclosure and recusal requirements, left the meeting room and make their comments during the time the public makes its comments. Comments are limited to the matter only as it relates to the council public comment on a matter in which recusal is required. The Political Reform Act and its regulation are complex and depend heavily on the facts of each situation. Please consult with the City Attorney's Office if there are any questions regarding the ability to participate in a decision before the City Council. Government Code Section 1090 Government Code Section 1090 applies only to City contracts in which a public official has a financial interest. The financial interests covered by Government Code Section Section1090 are different from those in the Political Reform Act.

While the PRA's definition of work-related"records" is essentially limited to communications relating to actual conduct of theCity's business by an individual in their official capacity, there is no guarantee thatany particular personal or seemingly incidental work-related communication willultimately be deemed exempt from production or disclosure.While the law attempts to strike a balance between the public's interest indisclosure and the official's personal right to privacy, permitted exemptions fromproduction and disclosure are rather narrow, and the City Attorney must actimpartially when determining whether a record is exempt. Factors such as potentialembarrassment cannot be accounted for in determining what to produce, and theCity is obligated by law to err on the side of disclosure.Additionally, bear in mind that in the event of litigation, a subpoena for records is amore powerful tool that can potentially compel the City to produce a broaderarray of records, including those that would not have been produced under a PRArequest.C. Consider the appropriate platform for all work-related communications. As always,a good rule of thumb before hitting "send" is to consider how you would feel if thecommunication were to be reprinted in the newspaper. If a communication issensitive enough that you would not want it to be reprinted, you are encouraged City of Redlands

I move to adopt Resolution No. 8678 to approve a one-year extension of time for Conditional Use Permit No. 1107 and associated entitlements for the property at 1605 Calvary Circle.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends that the City Council adopt Resolution No. 8678 to approve a one-year extension of time for Conditional Use Permit No. 1107, Historic Parking Modification No. 31, and associated entitlements, for the adaptive reuse of a historic single-family residence as a medical clinic and pediatrician’s office located at 1605 Calvary Circle (APN: 0293-133-13-0000).
DISCUSSION:
The approved project includes rehabilitation and the adaptive reuse of an existing single-family dwelling as a pediatrician's office and includes construction of a 1,238 square-foot addition resulting in a total building size of 3,649 square-feet. The entitlements also include Variance No. 799 that approved a reduced street-side setback (for a parking lot area) as well as Historic Parking Modification No. 31 to reduce specified parking lot improvements in order to accommodate the reuse of the property. The Council also approved Historic accommodate the reuse of the property. The Council also approved Historic Designation No. 135 that added the property to the City’s list of Designated Historic Resources.
The City Council approved the first Extension of Time on April 16, 2024. The approval of Conditional Use Permit No. 1107 and associated entitlements will expire on April 19, 2025, unless a building permit has been issued to commence construction of the project, or an extension of time is granted. The applicant currently has two building permits nearing approval in Plan Check; however, permits may not be issued and construction may not begin prior to April 19, 2025.
Approval of the time extension will make the new expiration date April 19, 2026, for this project. No changes to the project are proposed, and the original Conditions of Approval (see Attachment D) remain applicable for the project.
Approval of a one-year time extension will provide additional time for the new property owner to continue processing the building plans currently in the plan check process.
In accordance with RMC Section 18.192.090, the City Council may grant a one-year extension of time, and not to exceed a total number of three (3) extensions. This is the applicant’s second request for a time extension.
ALTERNATIVES:

Amendment to the East Valley Corridor Specific Plan (Specific Plan No. 40) to amend the required road right-of-way and streetscape landscaping requirements along the project site’s Alabama Street frontage (which will reduce the amount of dedication required and allow greater flexibility in the street landscaping design);
2. Conditional Use Permit to adaptively reuse the existing single family dwelling as a medical office;
3. Variance for a reduction in the front yard setback (from 25’0” to 20’2”) to allow the encroachment of a ramp to accommodate ADA accessibility, and a recommendation for a reduction to the parking lot setback (from 15 feet to 0 feet) to accommodate the adaptive reuse of the property; and,
4. Historic Parking Modification allow a reduction in the width of landscape planters to 3 feet, allow up to 4 compact parking stalls, without requiring 25 standard spaces, allow for the deletion of the loading space requirements for historic structures having less than 6,000 square feet of gross floor area, and allow the reduction of driveway approach from 26 feet to approximately 20’4” feet.
5. ANALYSIS:
A) General Plan
The proposed project is located in the Office land use designation of the General Plan (Attachment C – General Plan Land Use Map), which designates are for the development of a wide range of office types, including general office, medical, and other professional uses, as well as ancillary commercial uses. The 2035 General Plan addresses topic areas including those promoting office and commercial land uses and the preservation of historic resources. See Attachment D, General Plan Policies, for a list of applicable policies and the project’s consistency with each.
The proposed adaptive reuse and rehabilitation project furthers the implementation of the policies within the General Plan and ensures the long-term preservation of a local historic resource.
B) East Valley Corridor Specific Plan
The project site is located within the Administrative Professional District of the East Valley Corridor Specific Plan (Attachment E – Zoning Map), which supports businesses and professions which provide services primarily from offices and maintain no stock of foods for retail trade. This district provides a transition or buffer between more intensive commercial areas and major arterials and residential land uses. The East Valley Corridor Specific Plan provides the current development standards for the Administrative Professional District, a detailed analysis for which has been provided in Attachment F – Development Standards.
The project includes a request to convert a residential building from a residential use to an office use. The East Valley Corridor Specific Plan does not specifically address this in the Administrative Professional District, however the use of an office use in a residential structure is not prohibited in the district and would otherwise be permitted in the Administrative Professional District. As such, staff has used the provisions for the conversion of a residential structure within the provisions of the City’s Municipal Code (Sections 18.156.390 through18.156.420). This approach was utilized to approve other similar conversions of residential structures to office uses within the same zoning designation, including the conversion of the Barton House (Conditional Use Permit No. 803), located north of Barton Road on Nevada Street. The Municipal Code allows for the conversion of certain structures subject to specific requirements and under the approval of a Conditional Use Permit.
C) Historic Resource Designation
Section 2.62.180 of the RMC provides that any person or group may request the nomination and designation of a resource by submitting an application to the Historic and Scenic Preservation Commission.A nominated or designated resource may include single structures or sites, portions of structures, urban design features, manmade or natural landscape elements, or works of art that are fifty (50) years old or older.
The criteria set forth in Section 2.62.170 is used to determine if the nominated resource is significant.Based on the inventory survey submitted by the applicant, staff recommends that the subject property meets the following criterion for designation as follows: Based upon consideration of the Determination of Eligibility and the updated DPR form, three local eligible criteria are recommended as being met for designation as a historic resource.These include:
Chapter 2.62.170(F): “It embodies elements of architectural design, detail, materials, or craftsmanship that represents a significant architectural innovation;” Chapter 2.62.170(H): “It has unique design or detailing.” Chapter 2.62.170(I): “It is a particularly good example of a period or style.” Response: The structure represents the Queen Anne-Victorian architectural style and front porch, which influences from the beginning of the Craftsman style as seen in the dwelling’s front windows. As such, the structure appears to represent a transitional example between the two styles. The Queen Anne style is seen through significant characteristics such as the turret-bay tower, at the northwest corner, featuring curved glass windows on each floor and witch’s cap roof, multiple roof planes, large overhangs with exposed elliptical cut rafters and exposed eaves, a large wrap around porch, cylindrical Corinthian columns, and decorative moldings. The dwelling is built on a rock foundation, and utilizes shingles and shiplap on the exterior.
The significant characteristics of the Craftsman style seen include the three large square double-hung windows on the first floor, the mild pitched lower roof, flat porch roof. The inventory form suggests that the architect, who is unknown, may have been more inclined to emphasize the Queen Anne style, which was popular in 1905, and may have been experimenting with elements of the beginning of the Craftsman style.
Following the designation of the historic resource, exterior alterations, demolition, moving of the structure, or other permanent change to the property will require review by City staff and the Historic and Scenic Preservation Commission and will be subject to the provisions of Article III of Chapter 2.26 of the RMC (Application for Certificate of Appropriateness).
The structure, while in need of rehabilitation, has not been significantly modified over the years. Permit history is limited and indicates a reroof in the 1990s.
Google Street View and Google Street photography indicates that an addition was previously constructed to the rear of the dwelling that was not compatible with the architectural style, and was subsequently removed, exposing the previous framing of the original exterior wall. While this has a minor effect on the integrity of the building, the remaining building is largely intact. The applicant intends to rehabilitate the structure and construct a new two-story addition to the rear of the building.
The applicant does not intend to include the accessory structure (garage) as part of the nomination, as it is utilitarian is nature and would not meet the eligibility criteria as a historic structure. The applicant proposed to return with a request to demolish the structure, to accommodate parking lot improvements necessary for the adaptive reuse and preservation of the primary structure.
D) Specific Plan Amendment
A Specific Plan Amendment is proposed as part of the project scope to amend Division 4 (Community Design), Chapter 1 (Circulation), Section EV4.0110(b) (Road Standards), Section EV4.0115(a)(Special Landscaped Streets), and Section EV4.0125(2) (Setbacks at Intersections) to amend the required road right-of-way requirements of a 300 linear foot segment of Alabama Street on the north side of Barton Road (from a width of 120 feet to 110 feet), allow for a 50 foot half-width on the western side and a 60 foot half-width on the eastern side of Alabama Street, and exclude the segment of Alabama Street from the special landscape street and intersection design requirements.
Currently, the East Valley Corridor Specific Plan would require that the property provide ten (10’0”) additional feet of right-of-way dedication along Alabama Street, and utilize special landscaping street and intersection design requirements. Due to the unique shape of the parcel, the loss of 10 additional feet to the property would render an adaptive reuse project infeasible, as the property would no longer be able to retain enough room for the required parking lot and landscaping improvements. As indicated above, the General Plan supports adaptive reuse projects as a preservation mechanism for historic resources. The emphasis of historic adaptive reuse is to retain as much of the historic character and features as possible. Implementing the special landscape street and intersection standards would require substantial alteration to historic elements of the property and would require the removal of existing mature trees and affect a historic garden wall intended to remain on the property. In addition, the implementation of special intersection landscaping standards would be difficult due to topographical differences at the intersection and would require substantial grading and additional retaining walls to incorporate room for additional trees that would be located outside of the corner cut-off area to ensure safe intersection visibility protection. The subject property would be the sole property affected by the Specific Plan Amendment, and as such, the change would be very limited in scope and would not affect other sections of Alabama Street. The amendment would allow the property to be adaptively reused without additional dedication and would allow the Planning Commission and City Council to review the site design with a historic preservation scope in- mind.
The Municipal Utilities and Engineering Department has reviewed the potential effects of the Specific Plan Amendment related to roadway improvements along this property’s eastern frontage and determined that it is unlikely that such dedication would be utilized for street widening due to the existing and foreseen needs of this intersection and the difficulties and potential impacts upon historic improvements and topographical differences. A legislative version of the proposed changes has been included as Attachment G – Specific Plan Amendment.
E) Conditional Use Permit
As referenced in the analysis above, a Conditional Use Permit is required to establish a non- residential use in a residential building. The medical office use would essentially replace the residential use of the structure and allow the building and property to be adaptively reused in this capacity, aiding in its long-term viability and rehabilitation. The Conditional Use Permit application includes:
The approval of a nonresidential use (medical office) in a residential structure;
1. Construction of a two-story 1,238 square foot addition to the rear (a 51% enlargement);
2. Façade improvements, including a new 50-year asphalt shingle roofing material, new decorative corbels at a basement stairway, new turned solid wood architectural columns on the addition, new rafter tails on the addition, similar compatible materials (shingles and siding on addition to match existing materials), a new ADA accessible ramp and guard rail; and
3. Construction of related on-site improvements, including a parking lot and landscaping planters, which will require the removal of an existing accessory building, subject to approval of a subsequent demolition application.
4. To adaptively reuse a residential building for a non-residential use, RMC Section
18.156.410 indicates that the building must have historical, architectural, cultural or aesthetic interest or value to the community proposed to be preserved or continued. The Historic and Scenic Preservation Commission (HSPC) has reviewed the proposed property and made a recommendation to the City Council to designate the property as a local historic resource, indicating that the property meets three of the City’s historic eligibility criteria for designation, Criterion F, H, and I, as referenced above.
Documentation of the property’s historic significance has been prepared on Department of Parks and Recreation (DPR) forms, reviewed by the HSPC, included as Attachment H – DPR Forms. The structure represents the Queen Anne-Victorian architectural style and front porch, which influences from the beginning of the Craftsman style as seen in the dwelling’s front windows. As such, the structure appears to represent a transitional example between the two styles. The Queen Anne style is seen through significant characteristics such as the turret-bay tower, at the northwest corner, featuring curved glass windows on each floor and witch’s cap roof, multiple roof planes, large overhangs with exposed elliptical cut rafters and exposed eaves, a large wrap around porch, cylindrical Corinthian columns, and decorative moldings. The dwelling is built on a rock foundation, and utilizes shingles and shiplap on the exterior.
The significant characteristics of the Craftsman style seen include the three large square double- hung windows on the first floor, the mild pitched lower roof, flat porch roof. The historic inventory form suggests that the architect, who is unknown, may have been more inclined to emphasize the Queen Anne style, which was popular in 1905, and may have been experimenting with elements of the beginning of the Craftsman style.
The proposed conversation will include a 1,238 square foot two-story addition (resulting in a total building size of 3,649 square feet). The addition and the rehabilitation has been designed utilizing the Secretary of the Interior’s Standards for the Treatment of Historic Properties, in a manner to respect the original design of the historic structure and will retain the original appearance of a single family dwelling. The new addition will integrate a design that is compatible and consistent with the original structure, while implementing the Historic and Scenic Preservation Commission’s comments for subtle differentiation of the columns and rafter tails of the new addition to differentiate new work from the original work, as recommended by historic preservation practices. While the HSPC has reviewed and indicated their support the design of the project, a Certificate of Appropriateness application for the exterior improvements will be required by the HSPC, upon approval and recordation of the historic designation, as incorporated in the Conditions of Approval.
RMC Section 18.156.420 discusses the property development standards required for non-residential uses in residential buildings. These are discussed below:
The residential structure shall be improved to conform with the requirements of the Fire and Building and Safety Departments.Their requirements shall be developed from a careful study of each structure and the appropriate building and fire ordinances of the City.It is anticipated that all possible alternatives will be explored to retain the structure and still comply with the spirit and intent of the codes.
The project will be required to comply with all requirements of the Building and Fire Code. With historic designation of the property, the project will be able to utilize the California Historic Building Code to aid in additional flexibility to retain the structure and comply with the spirit and intent of the code. The Fire Department has provided conditions of approval, which require the applicant to provide adequate fire flow, follow the California Fire Code requirements, maintain minimum fire hydrant flow rates and distance requirements, provide an unobstructed fire access to the building, adequately address the building to commercial standards, and provide a knox box and fire sprinklers.
1. The exterior of the structure shall not be modified in a manner that would alter its residential character.
The design of the project will retain the residential character and architectural design of the structure. The addition to the building has been designed to be compatible and consistent with the design of the structure, without detracting or calling attention away from the primary, historic portion of the building.
2. The Commission may require complete exterior renovation of the structure, including repainting and reroofing.
The project scope already increases the complete exterior renovation of the structure, including a reroofing with a new 50-year asphalt shingle roofing material, new decorative corbels at a basement stairway, new simplified turned solid wood architectural columns to differentiate the new columns from the existing columns, new simplified rafter tails on the addition to differentiate the new columns from the existing, similar compatible materials (shingles and siding on addition to match existing materials), and a new ADA accessible ramp and guard rail.
3. Off-street parking shall be provided as required in Sections 18.152.140 through 18.152.320 of the Redlands Municipal Code. No parking permitted in any existing front-yard area.
The residential structure is proposed to be adaptively reused as a medical office. Medical offices are required to provide 1 parking space per 200 square feet of gross floor area with a minimum of five (5) parking stalls.
The total parking required on-site is nineteen (19) parking stalls. As designed, the project complies with the amount of parking stalls required.
Due to the unique shape of the parcel, which originally only anticipated a narrow northern portion to accommodate a residential driveway, a Historic Parking Modification and Variance application have also been submitted, which will provide the property flexibility to meet the parking requirements, given the property constraints and the difficulties involved with adaptive reuse projects, within the intent of the parking requirements.
4. One identification sign containing the name of the business and/or use, not exceeding twenty square feet in area, is permitted. In reviewing the sign, special emphasis will be placed on the proper integration of the sign with the project.
The applicant has not submitted any plans for signage, however, room for a future monument sign has been accommodated on the site plan as part of planning the site design. Prior to the development of any signs on the property, subsequent approval from the Planning and Historic and Scenic
5. Preservation Commission for any signs.
F) Variance
The applicant is requesting a variance for two specific areas in order to allow the property to have enough area to meet the development standards for parking lots and accessibility (Attachment I – Applicant’s Variance Request). RMC Section 18.196.010 states that the purpose of a variance shall be to ensure that no property, because of special circumstances applicable to it (such as size, shape, topography, location or surroundings) shall be deprived of privileges commonly enjoyed by other properties in the same vicinity. The variance requests are:
Reduction in the parking lot setback from 15 feet to 0 feet adjacent to Alabama Street, with modified parkway standards, to accommodate the adaptive reuse and long-term preservation of the property.
1. Reduction in the front yard setback by 20% (from 25’0” to 20’2”) to allow the encroachment of a ramp to accommodate the required
ADA-accessibility improvements.
2. The subject parcel is irregularly shaped, with the existing single family dwelling located on the widest part of the lot at a higher elevation, and the usable area for the development of a parking lot extending on a narrower finger sloping downwards towards Calvary Circle. The area for the parking lot is 60 feet in width, and needs to incorporate landscape planters, 19 foot deep parking lot stalls, a 26 foot wide driveway, 15 foot deep compact parking stalls, and 8 foot wide parallel parking stalls. As indicated in the background above, when the existing parcel was created as part of the recordation of an earlier parcel map, there were no known plans for the adaptive reuse of the property, as the area transitioned through the development of adjacent commercial and high density uses after this time. As such, the shape and size of the lot was driven towards maintaining access for a single family dwelling and allowing enough room for the development of the commercial day care facility located to the west. As such, there are constraints created by the properties unique shape, the adjacency of the property along streets on three sides, creating larger setbacks on three sides of the property, the sloping topography of the lot, and the existing placement of the historic resource.
The variance would be essential for the conversion of the property to an office use. The property is currently constructed as a single family dwelling, which is no longer a use permitted by right in the underlying zoning district, the Administrative Professional (EV/AP) District of the East Valley Corridor Specific Plan. In order to convert the property to an office use, and retain the historic structure, the property would be required to construct a paved and striped parking lot. The use proposed for the structure, a medical office, is a use permitted by right in the zoning district. Therefore, its establishment of a permitted use is contingent on the development standard reliefs requested in the variance. The construction of an ADA accessible ramp for access is a variance. The construction of an ADA accessible ramp for access is a requirement to establish a commercial use in the building. To preserve the historic integrity of the building and establish the necessary slope gradient maximum allowed for ramps, the new ramp structure would extend into the 25-foot setback by less than 5 feet.
G) Historic Parking Modification
The intent of a Historic Parking Modification is to allow for the consideration and approval of a permit for modified parking requirements for historic structures.
Pursuant to RMC Section 18.164.410, the permit allows certain specified citywide parking requirements to be modified as an incentive to preserve and maintain designated historic structures. The residential structure is proposed to be adaptively reused as a medical office, and medical offices are required to provide 1 parking space per 200 square-feet of gross floor area, with a minimum of five (5) parking stalls. Based on the proposed square-footage (including the addition), the total parking required on-site is 19 parking stalls, and 20 will be provided.
The applicant is seeking a Historic Parking Modification to:
Allow a reduction in the width of landscape planters to 3 feet;1.
Allow up to 4 compact parking stalls, without requiring the 25 standard (full-size) spaces;
2. Allow for the deletion of the loading space requirements for historic structures having less than 6,000 square-feet of gross floor area; and
3. Allow the reduction of the driveway width from 26 feet minimum to approximately 20’4” feet.
4. The table below shows how the project is designed to comply with the requirements of a Historic Parking Modification, given the practical difficulties and infeasibility of meeting the standard parking lot requirements that would otherwise be required for new developments.

As designed, with the relief indicated above, the project site can be designed to incorporate 20 parking stalls, therefore allowing them to meet the minimum parking requirement. The modification will not require a reduction in the overall number of parking stalls, even with incorporation of the addition. The proposal has been reviewed by Planning and Engineering staff, and the Historic and Scenic Preservation Commission and Planning Commissions have made recommendations for approval to the City Council.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW:
The Specific Plan Amendment would be exempt from the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to Section 15061(b)(3) of the CEQA Guidelines. Section 15061(b)(3) is referred as the “general rule” and applies to those projects where it is seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the activity in question may have a significant effect on the environment.
Conditional Use Permit would be exempt from the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to Section 15301 (Existing Facilities) and Section 15331 (Historical Resource Restoration/Rehabilitation) of the CEQA Guidelines and the Variance and Historic Parking Modification would be exempt pursuant to Section 15305 (Minor Alterations in Land Use Limitations) of the CEQA Guidelines.
ALTERNATIVES:
The City Council may continue the public hearing and direct staff to address any issues or bring back additional information; or,

SUBJECT: Approve terminating the Non-Professional Services Agreement with Clean Infusion, LLC for cause, rejecting all bids for the Wastewater Treatment Plant Secondary Clarifier No. 1 Rehabilitation Project (Bid #20240923-FM), and directing staff to solicit new bids for the project (Municipal Utilities and Engineering Director Harris) MOTION(S):
If City Council determines the staff recommendation is appropriate, the following motions are provided:
I move that the City Council terminate the Non-Professional Services Agreement with Clean Infusion, LLC for cause.
1. I further move that the City Council reject all bids for the Wastewater Treatment Plant Secondary Clarifier No. 1 Rehabilitation Project (Bid #20240923-FM) and direct staff to solicit new bids for the project.
2. RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends that City Council terminate the Non-Professional Services Agreement with Clean Infusion, LLC for cause, reject all bids for the Wastewater Treatment Plant Secondary Clarifier No. 1 Rehabilitation Project (Bid #20240923-FM), and direct staff to solicit new bids for the project.
DISCUSSION:
On September 23, 2024, MUED staff issued a Request for Bids to rehabilitate and repair the Wastewater Treatment Plant Secondary Clarifier No. 1. On October 24, 2024, the City received bids from nine (9) Contractors. After reviewing the proposals, MUED staff recommended City Council approval of a Non-Professional Services Agreement (NPS Agreement) with Clean Infusion, LLC (Clean Infusion) on December 3, 2024.
On January 20, 2025, Clean Infusion informed MUED staff of its inability to pre-purchase project equipment as required by the bid documents and NPS Agreement and requested that a separate "Joint Check Payment Agreement" be executed by the City, Clean Infusion, and Ovivio USA, LLC (equipment manufacturer). The parties met to discuss alternatives for advancing this project within the terms of the existing NPS Agreement. Ultimately, a solution acceptable to all parties could not be reached, and Clean Infusion submitted a request to terminate the NPS Agreement. No project work has been performed, Clean Infusion has not incurred any project expenses, and no project payments have been made by the City. Therefore, MUED staff recommends that City Council terminate the NPS Agreement with Clean Infusion.
MUED staff reviewed the remaining project bids and determined that all proposals exceed the available project funding. Therefore, MUED staff recommends that City Council reject all bids for the Wastewater Treatment Plant Secondary Clarifier No.1 Rehabilitation Project (Bid #20240923-FM) and direct staff to solicit new bids for the project. If approved, MUED staff will revise the project scope of services and re-advertise the project.
ALTERNATIVES:
City Council may deny the staff recommendation and provide alternate direction.

DISCUSSION:
The Facilities and Community Services Department manages the administration and issuance of permits for special events held in public areas of the city. Upon the issuance of a special event permit, the event may take place contingent on the event organizer paying the required fees. The City recognizes the value of partnering with non-profit agencies and organizations to provide services beneficial to the community. In an effort to support programs that provide a community benefit, the City Council will, from time to time, consider the authorization of in-kind support, including the use of city equipment, staff, and facilities for special events.
According to the application, the event will showcase over 100 artist booths, seven food trucks, a beer garden, and two locations for small musical groups to perform. This is the 12th anniversary of the event, which started in 2013. The estimated attendance for this year's event is 7,000. The event organizer is requesting setup to begin Friday, May 23 at 9:00 a.m. through Sunday, May 25, 2025 at 9:00 p.m. The Redlands Arts Festival Association (RAFA) is requesting permission to serve alcohol at the event which will end no later than 5:00 p.m. on each day of the two-day event. RAFA is also requesting approval to close Eureka Street from Olive Avenue to the south side of the Joslyn Senior Center parking lot. A soft closure would be erected with barricades and personnel from Olive Avenue to the north side of the Contemporary Club parking lot, then a hard closure would be in place, using the Meridian crash barriers, from the north side of the Contemporary Club parking lot to the south side of the Joslyn Senior Center parking lot. The soft closure would allow residents in this portion of Eureka Street access to their driveways and homes during the closure dates.
RAFA is also requesting the closure of Forth Street between W. Vine Street and the north side of the Contemporary Club parking lot. This portion would also be closed as a hard closure with the use of the Meridian crash barriers. The closure of Eureka Street and Fourth Street would be set up on Friday, May 23rd, at 9:00 a.m. and stay in place until Sunday, May 25, at 9:00 p.m. The soft closure on Eureka would be removed during the after-hours timeframe and re-set at the commencement of the event the next day.
Redlands Arts Festival Association is also requesting in-kind support in the amount of $7,587 for departmental resources, including personnel and equipment from the Police and Facilities and Community Services departments.
RAFA is a registered non-profit organization operating out of the City of Redlands. The City previously approved in-kind support in the amount of $5,407 for the Redlands Festival of Arts. RAFA, has successfully hosted these events, gathering hundreds of thousands, which is a benefit for local businesses and community engagement.

Additionally, staff recommends that the City Council authorize and approve the sale and consumption of alcoholic beverages at Ed Hales Park (State St & 5th St) during the event.

In an effort to support programs that provide a community benefit, the City Council will, from time to time, consider the authorization of in-kind support, including the use of city equipment, staff, and facilities for special events.
The Redlands Professional Firefighters (RPFA) is requesting to hold the annual Redlands Firefighter's Car Show event at Ed Hales Park and along East State Street and Citrus Avenue in the downtown area on Sunday, May 25, 2025, from 5:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. The RFPA is requesting street closures from 2:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. to allow for vendor and entry vehicle check-in, set up and clean up.
The RFPA is requesting the closure of East State Street between Orange Street and Redlands Boulevard; 5th Street between Redlands Boulevard and Citrus Avenue; 6th Street between the alleyway north of East State Street and Citrus Avenue; 7th and 8th Streets between the alleyway north of East State Street and the alleyway south of East State Street; 9th Street between Redlands Boulevard and the alleyway south of East State Street, Orange St. between Citrus Ave. and Redlands Blvd, and Citrus Ave. between Orange St. and 5th St. Access to both the lower and upper levels of the Citrus Ave. parking structure will remain open.
City Council approval is also necessary to authorize the consumption of alcohol for this event due to its proposed location of Ed Hales Park. Staff's approval authority is limited to only enclosed public areas in public parks as defined by Resolution No. 7559 and therefore the approval of this request is outside of staff's purview.
The City previously approved in-kind support in the amount of $9,598.00 for the Annual Firefighter Car Show Event in 2024. Redlands Professional Firefighters Association has successfully hosted 25 of these events, gathering thousands of people throughout the Downtown area of Redlands, which is a huge benefit for local businesses. The application states that it will provide local service clubs and organizations with an opportunity to raise funds for charity and bring revenue to local businesses.
The event is exempt from the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act’s guidelines pursuant to Section 15311(c). Section 15311(c), accessory structures Class 11 facilities, consists of the construction or accessory structures Class 11 facilities, consists of the construction or replacement of a minor accessory structure next to existing commercial, industrial, or institutional facilities, including placement of seasonal or temporary use items such as mobile food units, portable restrooms or similar items in generally the same locations from time to time in publicly owned parks or other facilities designed for public use.

TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council Members
SUBJECT: Discussion and possible action relating to the formation of, and appointments to, an Ad Hoc Committee of the City Council to review all charters for the City's Commissions, Boards and Committee (Mayor Pro Tem Shaw)
MOTION:

DISCUSSION:
Mayor Pro Tem Shaw is seeking the Council's concurrence to create an Ad Hoc Committee of the City Council charged with the review of all charters for the City's Commissions, Boards and Committees.

SUBJECT: Consideration of an Amendment to a Professional Services Agreement with Holt Architects, Inc. for design and construction management services of the City's new Safety Hall Facility to increase the total agreement to an amount not to exceed $4,537,563 and an additional appropriation in the amount of $2,302,563 from the General Fund Reserve for Future Facilities (Assistant City Manager Boatman)
MOTION(S):
If the City Council determines that staff’s recommendation is appropriate, the following motions are provided:
I move to approve the First Amendment to the Agreement with Holt Architects, Inc to increase the total agreement to an amount not to exceed $4,537,563; and
1. I move to approve an additional appropriation in the amount of $2,302,563 from the General Fund Reserve for Future Facilities.
2. RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends the City Council approve the First Amendment to the Agreement with Holt Architects, Inc., to increase the total agreement to an amount not to exceed $4,537,563 and an additional appropriation in the amount of $2,302,563 from the General Fund Reserve for Future Facilities.
DISCUSSION:
In December 2021, the City Council approved a Purchase and Sale Agreement for the acquisition of the property located at 1625 W. Redlands Blvd for the future development of a Public Safety facility to be utilized by the Redlands Police Department. The Police Department is currently split between four facilities: 30 Cajon Street (Annex), 1270 Park Ave (Corporate Yard), Records, and Evidence. This facility will house all the current Police Department staff, consisting of approximately 90 sworn personnel and 59 support and volunteer staff, while allowing for future growth.
In February 2023, the City Council approved a Professional Services Agreement with Holt Architects, Inc., for the design and construction management services of the City's new Safety Hall Facility for an amount not exceeding $2,235,000.
This initial contract included space planning, design drawings, and construction drawings. This amendment represents the entirety of the contract and reflects the full scope of the project now that the space planning and design are complete. As the fee schedule for the design and construction management services is based on a percentage of the total project budget, an amendment to the agreement is required. To contribute to the success of this project, Holt Architects has reduced the standard service fee from 5.79% to 4.25%.
ALTERNATIVES:
City Council may elect not to approve the amendment, however this will detrimentally affect the progress of the project.
STRATEGIC PLAN:
Supports Priority B - Public Health and Safety, Strategic Objective 2 - Complete steps to prepare for construction of a police station.

City Council Meeting K. 2.
DATE: 04/15/2025
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council Members
SUBJECT: Introduction of Ordinance No. 2981 Amending Section 2.36.020 of the Redlands Municipal Code relating to the appointment of members of the Planning Commission, adoption of Resolution No. 8674 establishing procedures for the selection of Planning Commissioners, and consideration of a determination of exemption pursuant to Sections 15061(b)(3) and 15378(b)(5) of the California Environmental Quality Act Guidelines (Development Services Director Desatnik)
MOTION(S):
If the City Council determines that staff’s recommendation is appropriate, the following motion is provided:
"I move to introduce Ordinance No. 2981, adopt Resolution No. 8674, and find that the Ordinance and Resolution are exempt pursuant to Sections 15061(b)(3) and 15378(b)(5) of the California Environmental Quality Act Guidelines." RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends that the City Council introduce Ordinance No. 2981 to amend Chapter 2.36 of the Redlands Municipal Code relating to the appointment of members of the Planning Commission and ancillary text amendments, and adopt Resolution No. 8674 establishing procedures for the selection of Planning Commissioners.
DISCUSSION:
Section 2.36.020 of the Redlands Municipal Code describes the membership of the City's Planning Commission and how members to the Commission are appointed. The code states that the members to the Planning Commission shall be appointed by the Mayor with the approval of the City Council. Recently the City Council has expressed a desire to change this process and, for the most City Council has expressed a desire to change this process and, for the most recent appointments, the Mayor appointed an ad-hoc sub-committee of the City Council to review and interview applicants and then make recommendations for appointments to the full City Council. The proposed ordinance and resolution will formalize this process going forward.
The ordinance will also require that terms of Planning Commissioners be staggered such that two or three Commission terms terminate every two years.
The attached spreadsheet shows how this would be implemented going forward, with the current membership of the Planning Commission and their respective terms (see Attachment C).
The attached resolution establishes procedures for the selection process, and includes criteria to be considered in the review of applications. It also discusses training that new Commissioners should complete as they start their service on the Commission.
Each member shall serve for a four (4) year term until his or her successor is appointed. No person shall serve more than two (2) consecutive full terms unless appointed to an additional term by a four-fifths (4/5) vote of the City Council. Vacancies on the commission shall be filled in accordance with the procedures and guidelines adopted by City Council resolution, and with the approval of the City Council for the unexpired portion of the term.
Other ancillary text amendments to Sections 2.36.030, 2.36.050, and 2.36.070 are proposed for clarifications to the existing regulations (see Attachment A).
The proposed ordinance and resolution are exempt from environmental review in accordance with Sections 15061(b)(3),and 15378(b)(5) of the California Environmental Quality Act Guidelines. Pursuant to Section 15378(b)(5) of the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”), this proposal is an organizational or administrative activity of the City that will not result in direct or indirect physical changes in the environment, and therefore not a project. Additionally, pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15061(b)(3), this proposal is exempt from CEQA review because there is no possibility that the code amendment or resolution will have a significant effect on the environment.
ALTERNATIVES:
The City Council may introduce the Ordinance and adopt the Resolution with changes.
STRATEGIC PLAN:
Not applicable.

DATE: 04/15/2025
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council Members
SUBJECT: Consideration of the purchase and replacement of two solid waste collection vehicles from Rush Truck Centers in an amount not to exceed $968,279.76 (Facilities and Community Services Director Crocker)
MOTION(S):
If the City Council determines that staff’s recommendation is appropriate, the following motion is provided:
I move to approve a purchase and replacement of two solid waste collection vehicles from Rush Truck Centers in an amount not to exceed $968,279.76.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends City Council approve the purchase and replacement of two solid waste collection vehicles from Rush Truck Centers in an amount not to exceed $968,279.76.
DISCUSSION:
The City of Redlands operates a Solid Waste Enterprise, which includes collection and landfill services, supported by a fleet of 43 vehicles requiring regular maintenance and scheduled replacement. The City's vehicle replacement policy is guided by industry standards established by the American Public Works Association (APWA) and has been created to ensure the most cost-effective, timely, and efficient replacement of vehicles. Of the City's 43 solid waste vehicles, several have exceeded APWA standards and need replacement. Since 2020, the global issue in the parts and labor supply chain has affected all Heavy Duty OEM Truck Manufacturers in North America. Since then, the production of truck chassis has been cut back, resulting in a lead time for specialized truck builds between 12-18 months. Staff is recommending the purchase of two solid waste collection vehicles at this time to fulfill equipment purchase of two solid waste collection vehicles at this time to fulfill equipment needs over the next two years.
The Solid Waste Division’s adopted budget for Fiscal Year 2024-2025 includes sufficient funds to purchase two solid waste collection vehicles. In accordance with the City’s procurement policies, the City utilized an existing cooperative contract agreement for Public Utility Equipment with Sourcewell. By utilizing the Sourcewell cooperative purchasing, the City can benefit from previously posted bid packages that have been competitively bid and awarded. Agencies can review bid results from more than 50,000 government, educational, and non-profit organizations and draw from the terms and pricing for similar units and vehicles. The vehicle types and purchase prices are listed in the table below.
Front Loader $484,139.88
Front Loader $484,139.88
TOTAL $968,279.76
Replacing these aging vehicles with newer models not only reduces maintenance costs but also enhances the safety of staff operating the City’s solid waste collection vehicles, which will greatly improve the efficiency and reliability of waste collection services.
ALTERNATIVES:
The City Council may elect not to approve the request to purchase and replace the Solid Waste vehicles and provide alternative direction to staff.
STRATEGIC PLAN:
Supports Priority D – Sustainability.
